You're waiting for your personal big bang
Waiting for your personal big bang Contemplating what you want Hating what you've got Waiting for your personal big bang Is this a good day? How can you tell The girl in the stupid dress is wearing it well She's making her exit, she's leaving a scent Of rainfall and corn flakes, of nights being spent You keep reading the paper, keep scanning the crowd All the while wondering what you're about And what is important, and whether you're real And where you are headed, and who's at the wheel You're waiting for your personal big bang Waiting for your personal big bang Contemplating what you want Hating what you've got Waiting for your personal big bang You feel like pretending even when you're not What makes people peaceful? What have they got? Maybe a novel, maybe a song But even the first lines come out all wrong Maybe be famous, maybe just hang Trying to make contact, but the phone never rang The movie was boring, the weather's a drag But the sun would change nothin', the heavens still sag You're waiting for your personal big bang Waiting for your personal big bang Contemplating what you want Hating what you've got Waiting for your personal big bang Waiting, dreaming, doing absolutely nothing |

Stupid choices made
Charms to arm and trade Tell me to go, tell me to go, tell me to go But if it's too hot, sorry It's too hot sorry you know And I will be gone, gone, gone I will be gone, gone, gone You said it's all the same You'll take all the blame You sat on a wall and had a great fall You had a great fall Now, look at all the great horses All the great horses And I will be gone, gone, gone Yes, I will be gone, gone, gone Tell me to go, tell me to go, tell me to go Just like all the great horses All the great horses And I will be gone, gone, gone Yes, I will be gone, gone, gone |

Look up, said the orange man
There's a little black hole in your sky That's when I ran out of truths But I don't have time to lie A bite of the apple, you're taking it on Another bite of the apple So good to find out you belong They play their grown-up game With faces ready-to-wear This thing, it's hard to see But that doesn't mean it's not there A bite of the apple, old and new Another bite of the apple You do what you have to do So life's exploding Into multicoloured shreds around me The weary dreams I used to have Just yesterday astound me I feel I'm walking off the roof, Hit the ground and run Into the sun and back again Feels like an open heart Seems like we're ready to go No reason, just because I can't explain but I know A bite of the apple, no more running away Another bite of the apple You're braving the rainy day A bite of the apple, count to ten Another bite of the apple You're starting all over again |

That was one handshake drained of life
Said the hangman to his wife And when he sleeps, I don't want to know his dreams So you finally made your choice You lost your heart and found your voice And at long last everything's just what it seems So there's a supernova in your stomach Like getting punished for a lie you'd never tell You got company in all those messed up memories While for me it's just another perfect day in hell Well, it's no use, this summer's gone 'cause nothing good will just go on It's still the bones that tell us all about the flesh But how can something so alive Turn into Europe '45 How did those papers just wind up in the trash? Still the old phone sits on those letters that you sent me And my home feels like a highway side motel So for you it's like the end of a vacation While for me it's just another perfect day in hell And to you it's back to some unfinished business While for me it's writing something I can't spell Guess your diary's a masterpiece Of something I can't grasp And the sun ignites another perfect day in hell |

Is that me
Who's closing up again like a fist Or is it the fear Did you see They're coming after me like a storm It's always raining in here And I feel like drowning Relax, she said It's not that bad at all You crack your head You make yourself so small Relax, she said It's coded in your cells Is that me who's pulling down the blinds At high noon Or is it the fear There used to be A tattoo on my heart with a smile But now the smile is a sneer And I'm going under Relax, she said Why don't you dare to fall I'll catch you, man You don't even have to call Relax, she said It's coded in your cells You're special to me No need to beat everybody else |

Wake up call inside my head
Echo loop of all she said You cling to things, you end up void No story, just a thousand polaroids Found a book that says, let go Your heart knows all you need to know But heart's a dump and mind's a zoo A storm of curious things I thought I knew So if I shout it out loud will it rhyme Anything can change, anything can change Anything can change at any time Bathroom mirror, try to smile Lipstick writing on the tiles She might be back, she might be gone I'll sleep with the aquarium light on So I'll dream of our one perfect crime Anything can change, anything can change Anything can changeat any time Maybe some hills are to high to climb, but Anything can change, anything can change Anything can change at any time |

Everything comes, everything goes
Through the windshield, out the windows Everyone hears, everyone sees Wasted years, rest in peace The water, the water A brand new world order The circus, the circus Exploiting the workers Every outlaw's got his income Every kingpin's got his kingdom Tell the whole class, tell the whole world Say the wrong things to the right girl The camera in action The broken connection The next one will make it Don't touch it, you'll break it You gave me nothing You gave me nothing You gave me nothing And now you want it back Everyday comes, everyday goes Go pierce your eardrums, here's the weirdoes Smash your ant farm, make your ends meet But please be handsome, sexy and sweet The water, the water A brand new world order Deny them, resist them Get fucked by the system The camera in action The broken connection The next one will make it Don't touch it, you'll break it You gave me nothing You gave me nothing You gave me nothing And now you want it back |

It's just a habit, she isn't gonna call
It's nothing special, it's so unusual It's just a habit, quit staring at it Where are we headed? Are we just a habit? It's just a habit, a hobby for the week This great big planet, and everyone's unique So where's the fire, say where's the fire It's just a habit until you've had it It won't stop, it won't help All those great books on the shelf Switch it off, switch it on I am just an electron It's just a habit, this waiting by the phone I'm out of credit, I'm finally alone It's just a habit, so now is that it When will I get it? It's just a habit It won't stop, it won't go All those things I'll never know Switch it off, switch it on I am just an electron It's just a habit, she isn't gonna call It's nothing special, it's so unusual It's just a habit, quit staring at it |

You said this isn’t working, got to move on
You maybe right, perfection this is not But what’s the perfect love like, a flower or a flame? You got something you want everything and never what you got Cause how many times how many times how many times Can you fall in love? And how many loves how many loves how many loves Make a life? Sweet happiness they say comes in doses Are they numbered and what’s left of my stock? Thinking 3 AM thoughts, in the 3 AM dark Am I listening to my heartbeat or the ticking of the clock? How many times how many times how many times Can you fall in love? And how many loves how many loves how many loves Make a life? Tell me how many times how many times how many times Can you fall in love? And how many loves how many loves how many loves Make a life? The girl behind the counter made his heart throb He paid and got his change and turned to go Thinks, he’ll ask her out tomorrow But tomorrow she’ll be gone It will take three weeks till he won’t dream about her anymore Thinking how many times how many times how many times Can you fall in love? And how many loves how many loves how many loves Make a life? How many times how many times how many times Can you fall in love? And how many loves how many loves how many loves… |

Say, Jesus, can you read this?
And if you can Why don't you tell me what I'm thinking? I've got friends now I got music that will take me through the day Someone told me this, someone told me They never really nailed you to the cross Say are you furious? I've been there before I know just how that feels But a diet's not a dancer And a man is not a mouse Just like a garbage can will never be a house I don't need to know the answer I never liked to cheat Give me just the question That's all I need I'm OK now, I'm disinfected It's amazing how much love there is to find Feels like sailing to your parents Or like sleeping in a bed With no one else in sight Are you sorry, man? Say, are you sorry? Do you regret the way You walked this stony path? It's doesn't help you at all to be sorry And it doesn't help you much to be mad It's not like doubt will give you cancer It's so easy to believe Not much difference Between a preacher and a thief I don't need to know the answer No one to take the lead Give me just the question That's all I need |
