I don't wanna see you go I want somebody to love me Why'd it take so long to know? I want somebody to love me I want somebody to be nice See the boy I once was in my eyes Nobody's gonna save my life
We are wicked men Looking for buckles to loosen By the Count of 10 I wanna see somebody human And I lost what it was In the Teenage dust Of a Downtown Romeo In a couple of weeks You can tell all the freaks How you carried my body home
But tonight I crossed the line Dear Mr. Lonely How much could you know me? I could find lessons in light But once you've earned it You've already burned it
I don't wanna see you go I need somebody to love me (Need somebody oh) Why'd it take so long to know? I need somebody to love me (Need somebody oh) I want somebody to be nice See the boy I once was in my eyes Nobody's gonna save my life
Got my ticket man and I'm looking For somebody to use it I know we pretend But one of these days We're gonna lose it And I once left town When the leaves turned brown With a couple of souvenirs She was in my car When we hit that wall Yeah it could've move me to tears
But tonight I crossed the line I used to know her When my house was sober I could find lessons in light Over and over, is it really over?

Last Night When I was sleeping in the night When I was sleeping well I died When I was sleeping in the night Last Night And then I went to heaven When I died, when I was sleeping Went to heaven Didn't like it in the night Last Night And so I went to hell, I went to hell I didn't like it when I died When I was sleeping in the night Last Night And then I was reborn It was the night I died for sure And then all I saw Was the morning of the night Last Night And there's no fight The day has come My chance was gone
I don't know these places That you go when you are sleeping Oh I know it might be foolish But I hope that You're dreaming of me
Then I went all the way to heaven And I saw the pretty angels Well I simply turned And left them in The night Last Night Went right down into hell And saw them wicked girls as well But no I didn't feel their spell In the night Last Night Well there's nothing to be taken And there's nothing to be given I don't care about the living I can't lie, I can't lie And then I was reborn It was the night I died for sure And now all I saw was The morning Of the night Last Night And there's no fight The day has come My chance was gone
I don't know these places That you go when you are sleeping Oh I know it might be foolish but I Hope that you're dreaming of me (REPEAT)
Last Night When I was sleeping in the night When I was sleeping well I died When I was sleeping in the night, Last Night And then I went to Heaven When I died When I was sleeping Went to heaven Didn't like it in the night Last Night And so I went to hell, I went to hell I didn't like it when I died When I was sleeping in the night Last Night And then I was reborn It was the night I died for sure And then all I saw Was the morning of the night Last Night
Hey Boy Hey Hey Girl Hey Hey Boy Hey Hey Girl (Repeat)
I've done some dirty deeds But I've never done A dirty deed to you Years in the wilderness 'Till you found me And gave me something true
Hey girl, you've lucked out All the other girls they can only stare That boy, he's so beautiful Sleeping in the chair
People change but we're still here We set sail without a destination Weathered storms along the way Face to face with temper And temptation
Hey girl, you've lucked out All the other girls they can only stare That boy, he's so beautiful Walking over here
I've found what heart is It's being next to you Without a single breath Between us (between us) I've found what heart is It's being next to you Without a single breath Between us (between us)
Let me tell you About this girl named Rose She just got the sensation Said I'd be there around 3 o'clock Inside your house I've been waiting Her mother and brother, they greet me They're wonderful Your house looks nice And your son does too On his way to Sunday School Summers coming back on my mind Get the girl baby I'll stand in line you could bring your girls I don't mind 3 nights, 2 days I'll be fine Get the bread, get the cheese Get the wine Music blasting, a good time You and me, we're aligned What ya say, what ya say Hey girl hey
Hey girl, you've lucked out All the other girls they can only stare That boy, he's so beautiful Sleeping in the chair
I've found what heart is, It's being next to you. Without a single breath Between us (between us) I've found what heart is, It's being next to you. Without a single breath Between us (between us)
I take too long To answer telephones I take too long to type my name And record messages But my handwriting is excellent In fact it's second to none, none
I just got in From somewhere really good They offered me the part of Bono And a speaking role With all the merchandise And sunglasses I could ever need, need
I drive round cities in a chariot I get preferential treatment At the Marriott but if the truth be told I'm naked under all those clothes
I tell you what is on my mind I only want to be In your record collection I only want to be In your record collection And I'll do anything it takes Just to get there
My brain is buzzing And the room is strange Like the scene in trading places At the stock exchange I made a million overnight in '87 Now I'm living in my Parking space, parking space
My teeth are bright And my hair is clean I wear Paco Rabanne Like I was Charlie Sheen But in the rain we all look wet And in the snow we all look cold
CHORUS
Disgusted by all the flashness I think I'm a don They think I'm an actor But I catch this My two needs Are pillow and a mattress Once I can fill up the space With a famous actress Give me a mil, I'll do a DJ set I pull spikey with the green Like a cactus Show off, ego's high You can't match this Chauvinistic Pig Money Man tactics
I'm not as clever As I thought I was It got pointed out to me As I was tying the knot And all I want to know is How I got so far down, down
I'm not as lucky As I thought I was My luck ran out the other day As I was crossing the road Who would have thought A truck like that

I look up at this mountain in marble It stands so tall So tragically it's fragile I'm waiting for it to fall Enormous mass it's made of glass Instead of with a substance That's stronger U thought that it would hold me I can't take it any longer
I'm gonna break out I'm gonna break out I'm gonna take All of my love back On the way out (REPEAT)
I'm free now I'm gonna take All of my love back On the way out
The fortress of our trust A mirage of a might mound I let U build around me Above me It seemed profound But much to my surprise It receives a little hit And it crumbles I'm leaning at the core No support All I can do is stumble
I'm gonna break out I'm gonna break out I'm gonna take All of my love back On the way out (REPEAT)
I'm free now I'm gonna take All of my love back On the way out
I'm gonna break out I'm gonna break out I'm gonna take All of my love back On the way out (REPEAT)
I'm free now I'm gonna take All of my love back On the way out
A streak of light Exposes all the glass for stone This mountain Can no longer pass The confidence that we share Has been a facade
I'm breaking out and Leaving only the shards
Formidable The structure only looks I bust right through the glass One attempt and That's all it took I wanted to remain Feeling safe But it just can't sustain me It feels more like a trap Gotta break out Won't let it contain me
I'm gonna break out I'm gonna break out I'm gonna take All of my love back On the way out (REPEAT)
I'm free now I'm gonna take All of my love back On the way out
