If I seem a little jittery I can't restrain myself
I'm falling into fancy fragments - can't contain myself I'm gonna breakdown - breakdown yes Now I can stand austerity but it gets a little much when there's all these livid things that you never get to touch I'm gonna breakdown ... I feel me brain like porridge coming out of me ears and I was anticipating reverie I've taken leave of me senses - and I'm in arrears my legs buckle over - I'm living on my knees I'm gonna breakdown ... Whatever makes me tick it takes away my concentration sets my hands a-trembling - gives me frustration I'm gonna breakdown ... So I hear that two is company for me it's plenty trouble though my double thoughts are clearer now that I am seeing double I'm gonna breakdown ... Oh mum can I grow out of what's too big for me? I'll give up that ghost before it gives up me I wander loaded as a crowd - a nowhere wolf of pain Living next to nothing - my nevermind remains I'm gonna breakdown ... |

There's bed in your eyes
But there's nothing there to trust Just lust, just lust You're telling me lies When you say that it's a must Just lust, just lust You shattered all my dreams And my head's about to bust Is it all real, that's how it seems But it all comes down to dust Your hands feel a need I don't know if it's too much Just lust, just lust It seems it's only greed To taste all that you touch Just lust, just lust You shattered all my dreams And my head's about to bust Is it all real, that's how it seems But it all comes down to dust You're driven to possess It hurts it's so unjust Just lust, just lust If nothing matters less Then I wouldn't make a fuss Just lust, just lust I was slow to catch on And that just makes it worse If passion is a fashion Then emotion is a curse I was slow to catch on And that just makes it worse If passion is a fashion Then emotion is a curse You're driven to possess It hurts it's so unjust Just lust, just lust If nothing mattered less Then I wouldn't make a fuss Just lust, just lust It's my imagination To see things as I choose Love has a reputation That it can only lose |

You said the things you did in the past
Were all because you're living too fast But now I'm here you're taking it slow You know what you know you know you don't know I only want to be with you You do you do you do you do too You do you do you do you do too But I'm so happy just to be with you I knew what you knew what you knew you knew too Ah You said that time you didn't love me Although I'd been the cutest you'd seen But would the past have changed even though You know what you know you know you know now I only want you by my side Some kinds of pride I just can't hide Some kinds of pride just can't be denied But I know that oh no no no |

Reality's a dream
A game in which I seem To never find out just what I am I don't know if I'm an actor or ham A shamen or sham But if you don't mind I don't mind I'm lost without a clue So how can I undo The tangle of these webs I keep weaving I don't know if I should be believing Deceptive perceiving But if you don't mind I don't mind I used to bet that you didn't care But gambling never got me anywhere Each time I used to feel so sure Something about you made me doubt you more How can you convince me When everything I see Just makes me feel you're putting me down And if it's true this pathetic clown'll Keep hanging around That's if you don't mind I don't mind I used to bet that you didn't care But gambling never got me anywhere Each time I used to be so sure Something about you made me doubt you more I even think you hate me when you call me on the phone And sometimes when we go out that I wish I'd stayed at home And when I'm dreaming or just lying in my bed I think you've got it in for me Is it all in my head is it in my head How can you convince me When everything I see Just makes me feel you're putting me down And if it's true this pathetic clown'll Keep hanging around That's if you don't mind I don't mind I don't mind |

I'm in love again
Been like this before I'm in love again This time's true I'm sure Don't wanna end up like no nine day wonder I've been hurt so many times before So my darlin' I will never leave you It's in my blood to always love you more Love you more It's my heart again That drives me so wild I just can't explain Although I'm not a child So why would I cry if you ever left me? Maybe 'cause you're all I'm livin' for With every heartbeat I want you madly It's in my blood to always love you more Love you more Oh my love again What I say is true Though it may sound plain I love you And it means more to me than life can offer And if this isn't true love then I am sure That after this love there'll be no other Until the razor cuts |

Whenever I'm in doubt about things I do
I listen to the high street wailing sounds in a queue I go out for my walking sailing social news Don't let it get me down I'm long in the tooth When I'm out in the open clattering shoppers around The neon signs that take your eyes to town Your thoughts are chosen your world is advertising now And extravagance matters to worshippers of the pound But it's a harmony in my head It's a harmony in my head The tortured faces expression out aloud And life's little ironies seem so obvious now Your cashed in cheques have placed the payments down And there's a line of buses all wait to take you out But it's a harmony in my head It's a harmony in my head It's a ... It's a harmony in my head It's a harmony in my head It's a harmony in my head It's a harmony in my head Whenever I'm in doubt about things I do I listen to the high street wailing sounds in a queue I go out for my walking sailing social news Don't let it get me down I'm long in the tooth 'Cause it's a harmony in my head It's a harmony in my head It's a harmony in my head It's a harmony in my head |

In these times of contention it's not my intention to make things plain
I'm looking through mirrors to catch the reflection that can't be mine I'm losing control now I'll just have to slow down a thought or two I can't feel the future and I'm not even certain that there is a past I believe in the worker's revolution And I believe in the final solution I believe in I believe in I believe in the shape of things to come And I believe in I'm not the only one Yes I believe in I believe in When I poison my system I take thoughts and twist them into shapes I'm reaching my nadir and I haven't an idea of what to do I'm painting by numbers but can't find the colours that fill you in I'm not even knowing if I'm coming or going if to end or begin I believe in the immaculate conception And I believe in the resurrection And I believe in I believe in I believe in the elixir of youth And I believe in the absolute truth Yes I believe in I believe in There is no love in this world any more There is no love in this world any more I've fallen from favour while trying to savour experience I'm seeing things clearly but it has quite nearly blown my mind It's the aim of existence to offer resistance to the flow of time Everything is and that is why it is will be the line I believe in perpetual motion And I believe in perfect devotion I believe in I believe in I believe in the things I've never had I believe in my Mum and my Dad And I believe in I believe in There is no love in this world any more There is no love in this world any more I'm skippin' the pages of a book that takes ages for the foreword to end Triangular cover concealing another aspect from view My relative motion is just an illusion from stopping too fast The essence of being these feelings I'm feeling I just want them to last I believe in original sin And I believe what I believe in Yes I believe in I believe in I believe in the web of fate And I believe I'm going to be late So I'll be leavin' What I believe in There is no love in this world any more There is no love in this world any more There is no love in this world any more There is no love in this world any more There is no love in this world any more There is no love in this world any more There is no love in this world any more There is no love in this world any more There is no love in this world any more There is no love in this world any more There is no love in this world any more There is no love in this world any more There is no love in this world any more There is no love in this world any more There is no love in this world any more There is no love in this world any more |
