In darkness
Where my dreams are all too clear Darkness, darkness Filled with all the sounds of fear I hear voices (don't turn out the light) Calling faraway I see shadows (don't turn out the light) Moving, changing shape And the clock stops As darkness closes in I hesitate but it's too late I scream and scream again I hear colours black and red I see sounds that fill my head I'll never read those books again In darkness Where my dreams are all too clear Darkness, darkness Filled with all the sounds of fear I hear voices (don't turn out the light) Calling faraway I see shadows (don't turn out the light) Moving, changing shape Don't turn out the light (don't turn out the light) Or I'll go over the edge Don't turn out the light (don't turn out the light) Or I'll go over the edge In darkness Where my dreams are all too clear Darkness, darkness Filled with all the sounds of fear I hear voices (don't turn out the light) Calling faraway I see shadows (don't turn out the light) Moving, changing shape I hear voices (don't turn out the light) Calling faraway I see shadows (don't turn out the light) Moving, changing shape |

Those cocky little fires you started in the night
The independent claims that just meant "Hold me tight" The bruises on your body that you swore were from a fight I'll pass at your insistence Alsatians fall unconscious at the shadow of your call One glance from your direction and the government will fall Whole continents of misery don't bother you at all But for me you have persistence Run all day, run all night Do or die, do or die Got to run for your life Do or die, do or die I'd like to leave so would you kindly look the other way You tell me to be honest but I've nothing left to say Just like your feet my goddess, my brain has turned to clay An end to all resistance Run all day, run all night Do or die, do or die Got to run for your life Do or die, do or die Run all day, run all night Do or die, do or die Got to run for your life Do or die, do or die Run all day, run all night Do or die, do or die Got to run for your life Do or die, do or die Run all day, run all night Do or die, do or die Got to run for your life Do or die, do or die |

My life
I'm a fool for you You who take no advice You who think evil doesn't exist Just because you deny it is true You're lucky I care For fools like you You're lucky I'm there To stop people doing the things That you know they are dying to do You know I am no stranger I know rules are a bore But just to keep you from danger I am the law A dog must bark So evil calls Both in the wild and Within these walls You know I am no stranger I know rules are a bore But just to keep you from danger I am the law |

When he saw her getting off the bus
It seemed to wipe away the years Her face was older, just a little rough But her eyes were still so clear He drank his coffee and he hurried out Across before she walked away Then he approached her like a little child Too scared for what he had to say "Hello, Louise, Remember me? Now should we part Or stay awhile? As if we were still lovers" She took a moment just to recognise The man she'd known so well before And as he started to apologise Lose any bitterness she bore She gently put her finger on his lips To let him know she understood And with her suitcase standing on the floor Embraced him like a lover would He told Louise "You look so good It's just you see You make me feel As if we were still lovers" It's not always true that time heals all wounds There are wounds that you don't wanna heal the memories of something really good something truly real, that you never found again And though they talked for just a little time Before she said she had to go He saw the meeting as a tiny sign That told him all he had to know And so Louise Waved from the bus And as she left She gave that smile As if they were still lovers |

As if we were still lovers" She took a moment just to recognise the man she'd known so well before And as he started to apologise Lose any bitterness she bore She gently put her finger on his lips To let him know she understood And with her suitcase standing on the floor Embraced him like a lover would He told louise "you look so good It's just you see You make me feel As if we were still lovers" It's not always true that time heals all wounds There are wounds that you don't wanna heal The memories of something really good Something truly real, that you never found again And though they talked for just a little time Before she said she had to go He saw the meeting as a tiny sign That told him all he had to know And so louise Waved from the bus And as she left She gave that smile As if they were still lovers |

It's hard I know to understand
Nothing lasts for ever The things you used to say and do The places you would go to meet When you were together You set your face against the tide The harsh words that were spoken But after all the anger The shouting and the tears You found your heart was broken Fight the tears Fight the fever Don't give in Soul deceiver So hurt With the pain you can't hide So lost And lonely inside So hurt When the feeling has died So hurt With the pain you can't hide So lost And lonely inside So hurt When the feeling has died Just like the clock went back ten years To make a new beginning To work out how to live your life To take the board and play the game And recognise you're winning Your memories mean nothing now You're just a little older Moving forward with the crowd Silent fears but laughing loud Not wiser but just bolder Fight the tears Fight the fever Fight the hurt Don't give up So hurt With the pain you can't hide So lost And lonely inside So hurt When the feeling has died So hurt With the pain you can't hide So lost And lonely inside So hurt When the feeling has died |

You know you're in love No matter what you try to do You might as well resign yourself To what you're going through If you're a hard man or if you're a child It still might get to you Don't kid yourself you've seen it all before A million mouths have said that too I've had my hard times in the past I've been a husband and a lover too I've lain alone and cried at night Over what love made me do And the loved ones who let me down And couldn't share my point of view But this is philomena talking I want to tell you What I've found to be true I love your love action Lust's just a distraction No talking, just looking Watching your love action I believe, I believe what the old man said Though I know that there's no lord above I believe in me, I believe in you And you know I believe in love I believe in truth though I lie a lot I feel the pain from the push and shove No matter what you put me through I'll still believe in love And I say I love your love action Lust's just a distraction No talking, just looking Watching your love action I love your love action Lust's just a distraction No talking, just looking Watching your love action I love your love action Lust's just a distraction No talking - I'm just checking To see if someone out there Is really reading all this |

Hiding from the sun Waiting for the golden one Waiting for your fame After the parade has gone Outside was a happy place Every face had a smile like the golden face For a second Your knuckles white as your fingers curl The shot that was heard around the world For a second It took seconds of your time to take his life It took seconds It took seconds of your time to take his life It took seconds It took seconds of your time to take his life It took seconds of your time to take his life Seconds Seconds It took seconds of your time to take his life It took seconds It took seconds of your time to take his life It took seconds For a second It took seconds of your time to take his life It took seconds It took seconds of your time to take his life It took seconds For a second It took seconds of your time to take his life Seconds of your time to take his life For a second For a second For a second |

Put your hand in a party wave
Pass around Make a shroud pulling combs through a backwash frame Find the copies in a carbon mount Pass around Stroke a pocket with a print of a laughing sound Get around town Get around town Where the people look good Where the music is loud Get around town No need to stand proud Add your voice to the sound of the crowd The shades from a pencil peer Pass around A fold in an eyelid brushed with fear The lines on a compact guide Pass around A hat with alignment worn insde Get around town Get around town Where the people look good Where the music is loud Get around town No need to stand proud Add your voice to the sound of the crowd Get in line now Get in line now Stay in time with the rhythm and rhyme Get around town Get around town Where the people look good Where the music is loud Get around town No need to stand proud Add your voice to the sound of the crowd Get around town Get around town Where the people look good Where the music is loud Get around town No need to stand proud Add your voice to the sound of the crowd Get around town Get around town Where the people look good Where the music is loud Get around town No need to stand proud Add your voice to the sound of the crowd |

In darkness
Where my dreams are all too clear Darkness, darkness Filled with all the sounds of fear I hear voices (don't turn out the light) Calling faraway I see shadows (don't turn out the light) Moving, changing shape And the clock stops As darkness closes in I hesitate but it's too late I scream and scream again I hear colours black and red I see sounds that fill my head I'll never read those books again In darkness Where my dreams are all too clear Darkness, darkness Filled with all the sounds of fear I hear voices (don't turn out the light) Calling faraway I see shadows (don't turn out the light) Moving, changing shape Don't turn out the light (don't turn out the light) Or I'll go over the edge Don't turn out the light (don't turn out the light) Or I'll go over the edge In darkness Where my dreams are all too clear Darkness, darkness Filled with all the sounds of fear I hear voices (don't turn out the light) Calling faraway I see shadows (don't turn out the light) Moving, changing shape I hear voices (don't turn out the light) Calling faraway I see shadows (don't turn out the light) Moving, changing shape |

Those cocky little fires you started in the night
The independent claims that just meant "Hold me tight" The bruises on your body that you swore were from a fight I'll pass at your insistence Alsatians fall unconscious at the shadow of your call One glance from your direction and the government will fall Whole continents of misery don't bother you at all But for me you have persistence Run all day, run all night Do or die, do or die Got to run for your life Do or die, do or die I'd like to leave so would you kindly look the other way You tell me to be honest but I've nothing left to say Just like your feet my goddess, my brain has turned to clay An end to all resistance Run all day, run all night Do or die, do or die Got to run for your life Do or die, do or die Run all day, run all night Do or die, do or die Got to run for your life Do or die, do or die Run all day, run all night Do or die, do or die Got to run for your life Do or die, do or die Run all day, run all night Do or die, do or die Got to run for your life Do or die, do or die |

My life
I'm a fool for you You who take no advice You who think evil doesn't exist Just because you deny it is true You're lucky I care For fools like you You're lucky I'm there To stop people doing the things That you know they are dying to do You know I am no stranger I know rules are a bore But just to keep you from danger I am the law A dog must bark So evil calls Both in the wild and Within these walls You know I am no stranger I know rules are a bore But just to keep you from danger I am the law |

When you're in love
You know you're in love No matter what you try to do You might as well resign yourself To what you're going through If you're a hard man or if you're a child It still might get to you Don't kid yourself you've seen it all before A million mouths have said that too I've had my hard times in the past I've been a husband and a lover too I've lain alone and cried at night Over what love made me do And the loved ones who let me down And couldn't share my point of view But this is philomena talking I want to tell you What I've found to be true I love your love action Lust's just a distraction No talking, just looking Watching your love action I believe, I believe what the old man said Though I know that there's no lord above I believe in me, I believe in you And you know I believe in love I believe in truth though I lie a lot I feel the pain from the push and shove No matter what you put me through I'll still believe in love And I say I love your love action Lust's just a distraction No talking, just looking Watching your love action I love your love action Lust's just a distraction No talking, just looking Watching your love action I love your love action Lust's just a distraction No talking - I'm just checking To see if someone out there Is really reading all this |

And when it hurts you know
They love to tell you How they warned you They say "Don't be surprised At someone's lies" They think they taunt you But if you can stand the test You know your worst is better Than their best And so you stand here With the years ahead Potentially calling With open heart Or with a spirit dead You walk on Love is the reason Faith or treason Playing a part End concealing Try revealing Open your heart Dare to feel Take the chance Make the deal Being an island Shying from trying Seems the easy way Such an easy way But there's no future Without tears Love is the reason Faith or treason Playing a part End concealing Try revealing Open your heart But if you can stand the test You know your worst is better than their best Love is the reason Faith or treason Playing a part End concealing Try revealing Open your heart |

Listen to the voice of Buddha Saying stop your sericulture Little people like your offspring Boiled alive for some Gods stocking Buddha's watching, Buddha's waiting Just because the kid's an orphan Is no excuse for thoughtless slaying People don't forget this torture Just because you call her mother Doesn't mean that she's your better Once more with the voice of Buddha He'll say carry on your slaughter Who cares for the little children You may slice with no conviction Blind revenge on a blameless victim Listen to the voice of Buddha Saying stop your sericulture He'll say carry on your slaughter Who cares for the little children You may slice with no conviction Blind revenge on a blameless victim Listen to the voice of Buddha Listen to the voice of Buddha Listen to the voice of Buddha |

A crow and a baby
Had an affair The result was a landslide The result was a dare The result was a baby Who wanted it all Moved out of the doll's house Moved out of the hall With one wing on the town and a gleam in an eye of red Said "My father was a crow, now I want all fathers dead Find the fathers of this world, treat them as a fatal foe Put them in the deepest hole, then cover the pit with snow" With one wing on the town And a gleam in an eye of red I'm just trying to tell you what you'll come up against If you venture from my side, If you think you're so mature You will end up in a field, you will be someone's manure Mushrooms growing from your back Feeding some damn carrion bird Do you want to contribute To the corruption of the world? With one wing on the town And a gleam in an eye of red A crow and a baby Had an affair My dream was the baby The crow was your hair Parts of me love parts of you That at least is obvious Give my baby back to me You must see it's only just With one wing on the town And a gleam in an eye of red With one wing on the town And a gleam in an eye of red With one wing on the town And a gleam in an eye of red |
