I can't see me in this empty place
Just another lonely face I can't see me here in outer space It's so hard to leave a trace And I try and I try and I try But it never comes out right Yes I try and I try and I try But I never get it right It's a Minor Earth Major Sky I can't see me in this lonely town Not a friendly face around Can you hear me when I speak out loud Hear my voice above the crowd And I try and I try and I try But it never comes out right Yes I try and I try and I try But I never get it right It's a Minor Earth Major Sky But I try and I try and I try But it never comes out right Yes I try and I try and I try But I never get it right It's a Minor Earth Major Sky |

I never saw sunlight
Burn as bright I never felt darkness The way I feel it tonight You say it's getting better You say it's allright But I never felt darkness Like I feel it tonight Little black heart Raindrops on my window I can't tell them apart Like the few things forgiven In my little black heart You say it's getting better We just never got it right But I never felt darkness The way I feel it tonight Little black heart Some day we will shine Like the moon in the morning Like the sun when it's dawning Yes the sun when it's dawning The sun Some day we will shine Like the moon in the morning Like the sun when it's dawning Yes the sun when it's dawning The sun Raindrops on my window I can't tell them apart Like a few things forgotten And a few things ignored You say it's getting better You say it's allright But I never felt darkness The way I feel it tonight Little black heart My little black heart |

Her skin is like velvet
Her face cut from stone Her eyes when she's smiling Will never reach home But hear how she sings Her touch would be tender Her lips would be warm But when we're together I'm always alone But hear how she sings But hear how she sings Hear how she sings Her skin is like velvet So I went to her home Her place like a palace With things you can't own Her skin is like velvet And hear how she sings Hear how she sings... |

The sun never shone that day
From an early dawn the sky was grey I never should've walked away I know that now, but I'm here to say: Everybody walks away Everybody's led astray Breaking every plan to stay It happens all the time The sun never shone that day From an early dawn the sky was grey I never should've walked I know I see that now, but it's hard to show Everybody's got to go Everybody tells you so Everybody wants to know Why it happens all the time I can't see the point of turning everything upside down I can't see the point of greeting everything with a frown I can't see the point of painting everything black or white I can't see the point of leaving everyone full of doubt (oh doubt) The sun never shone that day From an early dawn the sky was grey I never should've walked away I see that now, but I'm here to say Everybody holds their own Everybody lives alone Everybody hogs the phone It happens all the time Everybody feels the strain Everybody holds the pain Everybody stays the same It happens all the time I can see the point of turning everything upside down I can see the point of greeting everything with a frown I can see the point of painting everything black or white I can see the point of leaving everyone full of doubt Everyone full of doubt The sun never shone that day |

As she's walking out of the laundromat Down the street and it's the short way home Feeling special cause she's so alone But we know: (The world's full of lonely people) And it shows (The world's full of lonely people) She shrugs her coat off and unlocks the door Eats her dinner on the kitchen floor Writes a poem and turns the radio on Every singer sings the same old song And it goes: (The world's full of lonely people) And it shows (The world's full of lonely people) But when we she wanted me to go She just had to let it show To bring me down if she wanted me to leave She just wore it on her sleeve But at least, I was around But when we she wanted me to go She just had to let it show To bring me down if she wanted me to leave She just wore it on her sleeve At least, I was around Mary Ellen makes the moment count As she's looking through old photographs Pictures taken from an early age Faces look back at her from the page And they say (The world's full of lonely people) It's ok (The world's full of lonely people) It's ok (The world's full of lonely people) But when we she wanted me to go She just had to let it show To bring me down if she wanted me to leave She just wore it on her sleeve But at least, I was around I was around I was around I was around Mary Ellen makes the moment count |

He likes to have the morning paper's
Crossword solved Words go up words come down Forwards backwards twisted round He grabs a pile of letters from a small suitcase Disappears into an office It's another working day And his thoughts are full of strangers Corridors of naked lights And his mind once full of reason Now there's more than meets the eye Oh, a stranger's face he carries with him He likes a bit of reading on the subway home A distant radio whistling tunes that nobody knows At home a house awaits him, He unlocks the door Thinking once there was a sea here But there never was a door And his thoughts are full of strangers And his eyes to numb to see And nothing that he knows of And nowhere where he's been Was ever quite like this And his thoughts... And at heart He's full of strangers Dodging on his train of thought Train of thought |

Was that somebody screaming
It wasn't me for sure I lift my head up from uneasy pillows Put my feet on the floor Cut my wrist on a bad thought And head for the door Outside on the pavement The dark makes no noise I can feel the sweat on my lips Leaking into my mouth I'm heading out for the steep hills They're leaving me no choice And see... as our lives are in the making; We belive through the lies and the hating That love goes free For want of an option I run the wind 'round I dream pictures of houses burning Never knowing nothing else to do With death comes the morning Unannounced and new Was it too much to ask for To pull a little weight They forgive anything but greatness These are scoundrel days And I'm close to calling out their names As pride hits my face Woah! See...as our lives are in the making: We believe through their lies and the hating That love goes free through scoundrel days I reach the edge of town I've got blood in my hair Their hands touch my body From everywhere But I know that I've made it As I run into the air And see...as our lives are in the making: We believe through the lies and the hating That love goes through Through scoundrel days |

You give me news I don't want to know You say that I should care That I should speak my mind Oh, but how can I speak of the world Pushing by With a lump in my throat And tears in my eyes Have we come to the point of no turning back Or is it still time to get into The swing of things Let us walk through this windless city I'll go on til the winter gets me "Sleep..." you wrote "sleep, my dear" In a letter somewhere Oh, but how can I sleep with your voice in my head And and ocean between us And room in my bed Have I come to the point where I'm loosing the grip Or is it still time to get into The swing of things When she glows in the dark And I'm weak by the sight Of this breathtaking beauty In which I can hide There is a worldful out there Of people I fear But given time I'll get into The swing of things Yes, when se glows in the dark and I'm struck by the sight I know that I'll need this for the rest of my life What have I done What lies I have told I've played games with the ones that rescued my soul Have I come to the point where I'm losing the grip Or is it still time to get into The swing of things |

It wasn't the rain that washed away
Rinsed out the colours of your eyes Putting the gun down on the bedside table I must have realized It wasn't the rain That made no difference And I could have sworn it wasn't me Yet I did it all so coldly almost slowly Plain for all to see Oh c'mon please now Talk to me Tell me things I could find helpful How can I stop now Is there nothing I can do I have lost my way I've been losing you! I can still hear our screams competing You're hissing your s's like a snake Now in the mirror stands Half a man I thought no one could break It wasn't the rain That made no difference nervously drumming on Run away But I want the guilt to get me Thoughts to wreck me Preying on my mind So, please now Talk to me Tell me things I could find helpful For how can I stop now Is there nothing I can do I have lost my way I've been losing you |

Dawn awaits a sleepless,
English town Of coloured gray Here I roam the streets without you As summer fades away down in the city at nights The cold wind blows Wherever you may be right now It must be getting late You're probably asleep already I am wide awake down in the city at nights "Don't be lonely" so you've told me But don't you worry now Loneliness can be ignored And time has shown me how down in the city at nights I'm missing you so much Down in the city Down in the city |

We sit and watch umbrellas fly
I'm trying to keep my newspaper dry I hear myself say, 'My boat's leaving now ...so we shake hands and cry.' Now I must wave goodbye *Wave goodbye Wave goodbye Wave goodbye Wave goodbye Wave goodbye You know I don't wanna cry again Don't wanna cry again I don't wanna say goodbye Don't wanna cry again I don't wanna run away I don't wanna race this pain I'll never see your face again Oh how How can you say That I didn't try... You see things in the depths of my eyes That my love's run dry No... I leave to their goodbyes I've come to depend on the look in their eyes My blood's sweet for pain The wind and the rain bring back words of a song And they say wave goodbye * Repeat You know I don't wanna fall again I don't wanna know this pain I don't want another friend I don't wanna cry again Don't wanna see you hurt Don't let me see you hurt I don't want to cry again I'll never see your face again How can you say But I didn't try You know I do You see things in the depths of my eyes That my love's run dry I don't wanna cry again ...So I read to myself A chance of a lifetime to see new horizons On the front page A black and white picture Of Manhattan Skyline |

"Night I left the city,
I dreamt of a wolf..." He came from where the winds are cold And truth is seen through keyholes ...strange longins never sleep Now he's come where no hearts beat Cry wolf Time to worry Cry wolf Time to worry You can start, but you cannot stop You give in, but you can't give up You can tell all your desperate jokes To a world that puts Love on hold Cry wolf Time to worry Cry wolf Time to worry now ...the sunken-in eyes And the pain in his cries A shape in the dark... Cry wolf Time to worry Cry wolf Time to worry now |

Your face looked new against the town
You've come to lose some memories Like you I've come to touch new grounds You want to lose The weight of the wind Rests hard on your shoulders Bringing you down The one that you love Will never be find You speak into the falling rain Words you'd lost, but found again You see their snakey arms entwined So clear and cruel In your jealous mind You've got to lose The weight of the wind Hard on your shoulders Getting you down The one that you love Will never be found |

The way my broken heart is hurting me I've got my pride and I know how to hide All my sorrow and pain I'll do my crying in the rain If I wait for stormy skies You won't know the rain from the tears in my eyes You'll never know that I still love you so Though the heartaches remain I'll do my crying in the rain Raindrops falling from heaven Could never take away my misery But since we're not together I pray for stormy weather To hide these tears I hope you'll never see Someday when my crying's done I'm gonna wear a smile and walk in the sun I may be a fool But till then darling you'll never see me complain I'll do my crying in the rain since we're not together I pray for stormy weather To hide these tears I hope you'll never see Someday when my crying's done I'm gonna wear a smile and walk in the sun I may be a fool But till then darling you'll never see me complain I'll do my crying in the rain I'll do my crying in the rain I'll do my crying in the rain |

We said our lines
Then kissed And it was over Those pronouncements had such weight I guess they made us hesitate Hesitate When she moved her hips And swayed in my direction I thought we could make it yet And beat the isolation But in that gentle dark Man, we tore ourselves apart Through the fire and rain Through the wilderness and pain Through the losses, through the gains On love's roller coaster train I call your name Oh God... we used to laugh Is the fire dying, babe It hurts to ask Let me hold you for a while. |

On your slender frame There's many roads to leave by But few come back again I don't believe it I believe it Take a look around and see What's stopping you is stopping me One moonless night we'll make it right And vanish in the dark of night Pack up your things and go Run down the road, don't take it slow Pack up your things today and run away Yeah, run away You say it's useless crying Never got you far You claim there's none as lonely Lonely as you are I don't believe it I believe it Take a look around and see What's breaking you is breaking me One moonless night we'll make it right And vanish in the dark of night |

One time to know how it feels That's all One call - your voice on the phone One place - a moment alone That's all What do you see? What do you know? What are the signs? What do I do? Just follow your lifelines through What do you hate? What do I do? What do you say? Don't throw your lifelines away Don't throw your lifelines away One time - just once in my life One time- to know it can happen twice One shot of a clear blue sky One look - I see no reasons why you can't One chance to be back To the point where everything starts Once chance to keep it together Things fall apart Once I make us believe it's true What do we see? Where do we go? What are the signs? How do we grow? By letting your lifelines show What if we do? What up to now? What do you say? How do I know?

You're back again
You roam the streets And crack again You're back again You're travel-worn Standing here in the town Where you were born It's not your home The mirror sees you So alone ...Cold as stone - Yeah You're not your own You feel a chill Go through your bones You're not your own There's something wrong You call the doctor on a phone He's not at home So you leave a message After the tone ? "I'm cold as stone" Emerald green neon lights above Sapphire red falls on you below Cold as stone Emerald green neon lights above Sapphire reds fall on you below You're back again You send a curse out In to the night You're back again You're travel-worn Standing here In the town you were born It's not your home The mirror sees you So alone ...Cold as stone Cold as stone |

Don't be afaid
It's a harmless moon All we can do Is to assume Our lives must change A change is due I hear you say What are we gonna do I don't know - make it I don't know - shake it I don't know - break it down What are we wanna do I don't know - make it I don't know - shake it I don't know - break it down O' weeping night O' grieving sky O' rabbit wind You just flew by Grant me this Some small reward Don't announce The time of the final call My dream was this: Across the sky A slate-grey cloud That filled the eye ...a slate-grey cloud... Comes through the dust ? Locust Dont' be afraid It's a harmless moon? |

As you pour yourself a scotch
Crush a roach or check your watch As your hands adjust your tie people die In the towns with funny names Hit by bullets, caught in flames By and large not knowing why people die And in small places you don't know of Yet big for having no chance to scream Or say good-bye people die Chorus: La, la... Let me know People die as you elect New apostles of neglect, self restraint Whereby people die Too far off to practice love For thy neighbour, brother Slav Where your cherubs dread to fly people die Chorus... While the statues disagree Cain's version, history for its fuel Tends to buy Those who die As you watch the athletes score Or check your latest statement Or sing your child a lullaby people die Time, whose sharp, bloodthirsty quill Parts the killed from those who kill Will pronounce the latter tribe As your type Chorus |

Don't know this place Somebody stopped talking It is written in my face Thought I'd never leave you Thought I'd never dare But I watched you going under That's a thought I could not bear Five thousand miles I'm away from you Drifting by the Spanish steps tonight Guess you've got my number Guess you got my line Guess you got my number Should I be on your mind Late at night your footsteps Barefoot on the floor Tender eyes from sleeping In the darkened corridor I come up the stairway My naked enemy Comes stumbling towards me Wish I could set you free |

Half in love and half in hate
Someone told me it is late Late on earth he said, maybe late in you And late in me Darker than it has to be Tell me just another lie Now we're woven under ice Tell me that there is no other I am a child Be my mother If you lie, babe If you bother Since you raised that wall around you Since I lost you I have found you strange And I could swear for sure Haven't seen that girl before Half in love and half at war Hey, you're looking strange And everything you do Girl, it seems arranged Dark words drift away I have nothing more to say Soon this moon will rise And in this stony night I have to see your face See the lines that make you old Stony silence, touched by gold Everything's too late Too late for love, and suddenly Too late for hate There's only one thing left to do I have to face this other you |

Cut them down Plant coffee beans Build no schools Construct no roads Mark them as fools Let ignorance rule Leave them stranded on their island Treat them to the tune of silence Red is the cross that covers out shame Every Kingdom, every land Has it's heart in the common land Silently the tide shifts the sand Bury my heart on East-Timor In coral sands On golden shores Buried are those Who lived their lives No place to hide for Father and child Leave them stranded on their island Treat them to the tune of silence We shake the hands that kill and forgive Every Kingdom, every land Has its heart in the common man Silently the tide shifts the sand Bury my heart on East-Timor On barren graves Where flowers won't grow Blooms our Red cross lovingly This nightingale deed So we can be free Stranded on their island This army of the silent We toast our own goodwill and forget Every kingdom, every land Has its heart in the common man Silently the tide shifts the sand |

Take a moment if you dare
Catch yourself a breath of air There's another life out there And you should try it Dead ends hide on every street Look before you place your feet Cracks and fissures keep the beat And you're inside it Every thought you never dared to think Every mood you always knew would sink Every line you spoke out loud in a jest All the time you took to be your best Is soon forgotten The sun must never touch your skin It could expose the dark within You're paranoid about the paranoia And panic hits without a sign You worry about it all the time Every perfect moment is a hidden warning 'Cause everything makes your pretty head spin Nagging thoughts are starting to sink in With everything this way it's better to forget Than end up in a place with something to regret Your transatlantic shopping spree Your health forever guarantees Organic bio life's a breeze In cozy prisons But hiding out in a salad bar Isn't going to get you far And bottled wine is vinegar Tomorrow And everything around it makes your pretty head spin It's piling up high and you're back where you begin Moments you tried so hard to forget Are promising to have been the best one's yet Yeah, every time you shut your eyes it appears Every time you trace your steps back here None of your convictions have the same old ring But no doubt you found a place for everything Cozy prisons So if you're careful You won't get hurt But if your careful all the time Then what's it worth? |
