And a shadow fell
Bringing sleep to all Life is but a dream Ours When you disappear You are everywhere Life is but a dream Ours In our beauty sleep In big sleep together Nothing ever ends Nothing lasts forever You'll come back again I am waiting then Life is but a dream It's ours Life is but a dream |

Look I can't watch you Sleep-walking through this Should we find another party I'm not shining tonight just radioactive You have carbonated my bloodstream When I stumble It will be under your spell, at your command And when I stumble It will be into your hand Too much passion we waste In just trying to get it right one time With our clothes on we're brave And mummified and out of sight When I stumble... Can it be Can it be the storm has passed I'm not finished yet, I'm under construction You can peek behind the curtain if you want You watch, don't stop My reputation's shot I just wanted to get it right Can it be Can it be the storm has passed |

In the beginning my love was fierce One heart stopped and another started I flashed my eyes, cracked wise and left them dry Now I sit with my babe at my breast I was never this good at my best Never higher The moon was paper white the night you saved my life When my spirit guide left me behind The wood was closing in, foggy was the night The night you saved my life When my spirit guide left me behind I spy with my third eye Something volatile and vital So say goodnight, sleep tight, don't let them bite Now I stand with the wind at my back Every day brings a new breed of jackass I was never good at monkey-in-the-middle Never a fighter The moon was paper white the night you saved my life When my spirit guide left me behind The wood was closing in, foggy was the night The night you saved my life When my spirit guide left me behind The moon was paper white the night you saved my life When my spirit guide left me behind |

I'm keeping you I'm keeping you I'm keeping you so realize your fate I'm keeping you I'm keeping you I'm keeping you so settle down now You landed here from inner space You landed with that screwed-up look on your face I wanted you from way back when I wanted you for years, then years again I'm keeping you I'm keeping you I'm keeping you so settle in now My return to wildlife by satellite By beautiful moon-shining girl Whether by hard ground or splashdown We're safely back in the world My heart's not new I'm not like you I've loved and been loved well and badly too My body's been through everything I've used and been used I got over it There's something that you learn on a tightrope Just outside the spotlight there's a big net waiting for... My return to wildlife by satellite By beautiful moon-shining girl Whether by hard ground or splashdown We're safely back in the world I'm keeping you |

I'm an angel dark, darker than loam
Come to steer your runaway home I'm a moonbeam monkey on spec Come to bring your strange kid back No one saw him gimpy going round the bend And no one but me knows the stuff it takes to mend him I will get him back on the right track I will bring your strange kid back He saw something there, something in the ice Sees it still when he closes his eyes He's not talking, just taking it alone I will bring his story home He's not talking, just taking it alone He's a good boy, your good son I'm an angel dark, darker than loam I will bring your strange kid home |

This world is a wrap-around skirt
This world is a wrap-around skirt And i'm gonna throw it off I'm gonna throw it off I'm rising up rising up Maybe i worry cause i know how things work I know how things can work out Maybe they don't Maybe that's how This world is a fickle young girl This world is a fickle young girl It's high time we married her off How about to gassy old jupiter Maybe i worry cause i know how things work I know how things can work out Maybe they don't Maybe that's how Someone draw me a map so i can get back To the edge of the world And make my place in negative space Among my kin That's the only way to begin |

All your friends have changed Another moment too soon for you The angle shifts again Another moment too soon Now it's time to take a walk Now it's time to take the walk you've been side-slipping Time to move your sorry bones up off the floor Time to rise above your situation Time to make sure the current pauses at your door Time to seek your own level baby Amazing things have strayed within your reach Are you unfazed and unimpressed by all you could have had with ease Amazing things have strayed within your reach Another moment too soon for you Now it's time to take the walk you've been side-slipping Time to move your sorry bones... So what if you come undone on your way to the sun Your home-made kite melts down and out of sight You'll find that your arms are fine and strong and move you along And not a moment too soon Time to move your sorry bones... |

From the dark side of the sun My supernatural one You fell into grace Move slowly if not carefully Then in silence sometimes Blighted and solo This is where I come in reeling Our future waits on the field of fair play I will meet you there someday You come on like a sunburn baby My runaway old flame I know you come in peace But I'm still afraid From the dark side of the sun My supernatural one You fell into my grace Suffer me if not gladly Then in silence sometimes Our future waits on the field of fair play I will meet you there someday You come on like a sunburn baby My runaway old flame I know you come in peace But I'm still afraid Blighted and solo This is where I come in |

So much to lose Anyway so much to prove Step away from the wreck But leave a match for my last cigarette Someone's got to pay Someone's got to pay for this I know my name has not been easy on your lips And I know that smile is evidence of this And I know my picture will not be carried with you Now someone's got to stay and clean up this mess So much to leave Anyway so much for me Have you held your breath Through this tragic display of my last laugh Someone's got to pay for this I know my name... So much to do Anyway, I'm done with you |

My face has never been one to betray me It shines when I need it to It sends out a white blinding light in your eyes 'Till I figure out what I'm gonna do We meet in the kitchen and roll on the floor And I look in your face for something restoring And take from you barely enough for a lifetime of Holding out on you Holding out on you I see my storyline within you And I see the river rise to meet you 'Cause you started you started Harnessing the wave And you started you started Harnessing the wave My face has never been one to betray me It lies when I need it to But lately it seems you been laughing at me So I guess you're the one I can't fool I see my storyline within you And I see the river rise to meet you And I see my angel kneel to kiss you Cause you started you started Harnessing the wave And you started you started Harnessing the wave You started You started honey |

Walk with me awhile I've got something to say to you or ask you I don't know It's been a long day If the dove falls in the sea Never bringing us a leaf Will you come into the shadow with me Will you follow me under If I wash up on the beach And I've lost all memory Will you come into the shadow with me Will you follow me under If I decide to bring it all down Will you stay and help me figure it out Will you come into the shadow with me Will you follow me under Walk awhile with me I've got something to say to you or ask you Will you come into the shadow with me Will you follow me under I know it stinks Spinning on my fingertips |
