You Are Young
 |
Stay home 'til this darkness fades away
Lie still beside me
I'll hold you now, I'll hold you forever
Winter's hand will freeze your heart again
Doors will close, no time to start again
Nothing is given
Except the ties that hold us together
Lay down your load
Cause every day it's gonna grow
And bask in the sunshine
Try to pay no mind
Try to pay no mind at all
To all the things that you don't know
You've got time to realize you're shielded by the hands of love
Cause you are young
Fading light may make a fool of me
Courage fails, strengths slip away from me
Lie still beside me
And hold me now, and hold me forever
Lay down your load
Cause every day it's gonna grow
These days are sacred
Hey now, don't be scared
Baby, don't be scared at all
Of all the things that you don't know
You've got time to realize you're shielded by the hands of love
Cause you are young
You've got time, you've got to try
To bring some good into this world
Cause you are young
Cause you are young
Oh-oh-oh...
Cause you are young
Silenced By The Night
|
|
In a city like mine there's no point in fighting
I close my eyes, see you and me driving
If I am a river, you are the ocean
Got the radio on, got the wheels in motion
We were silenced by the night
Just you and I, we're gonna rise again
Divided from the light
I wanna love the way we used to then
I lie in the dark, I feel I'm falling
Feel your hand on my back, hear your voice calling
I'm out of my depth girl, stick close to me
Because the people in this town, they look straight through me
We were silenced by the night
Just you and I, we're gonna rise again
Divided from the light
I wanna love the way we used to then
'Cause baby I'm not scared of this world when you're here
No baby I'm not scared of this world when you're here
OooOooh, you and I, we're gonna rise again
OooOooh, you and I, we're gonna rise again
We were silenced by the night
Just you and I, we're gonna rise again
Divided from the light
I wanna love the way we used to then
Disconnected
|
|
Silence soaking through the floor
Pinching like a stone in my shoe
Some chemical is breaking down the glue
That's been binding me to you
I feel like I just don't know you anymore
I've been wrong and I've been there too many times
We walk in circles
The blind leading the blind
We've been disconnected somehow
There's an invisible wall between us now
I've been wrong and I've been there too many times
We walk in circles
The blind leading the blind
Well I thought that love watched over this house
But you're boarding up the windows now
We're leaning on each other so hard
Tied so tight we wound up miles apart
Making simple things so hard
I feel like I just don't know you anymore
I've been wrong and I've been there so many times
We walk in circles
The blind leading the blind
We've been disconnected somehow
There's an invisible wall between us now
I've been burned and I've been there too many times
We walk in circles
The blind leading the blind
I see the landscape change before my eyes
The features I've been navigating by
Nothing looks the way it did before
I don't know where to look or what to look for
I feel like I just don't know you anymore
I've been burned and I've been down too many times
We walk in circles
The blind leading the blind
We've been disconnected somehow
There's an invisible wall between us now
I've been wrong and I've been there too many times
We walk in circles
The blind leading the blind
We've been disconnected somehow
There's an invisible wall between us now
Watch How You Go
|
I never saw you drift away.
The more we spin around, the less we move,
I never saw your spirit break.
I wish that I could be your journey's end
But you are only passing through, yeah.
It's not for me to try to steer your way,
I wish you well in all you do.
Just say you'll watch how you go,
Be gracious with your light
And may the years be kind now.
Just say you'll mind how you roam,
The things that we have shared
Will soon be left behind now.
I hope you know that you're a graceful soul,
You fill the room with hope and light.
It's only right that you should go your way,
Cause nothing ever lasts that long.
Just say you'll watch how you go,
Be gracious with your light
And may the years be kind now.
Just say you'll mind how you roam,
The things that we have shared
Will soon be left behind now.
Behind now... behind now... behind now.
Just say you'll watch how you go,
Be gracious with your light
And may the years be kind now.
Just say you'll mind how you roam,
The things that we have shared
Will soon be left behind now.
Oooo, oooo, oooo, oooo, oooo,
The things that we have shared,
Will still remain behind now.
Sovereign Light Café
|
|
Down Powdermill lane in the battlegrounds
We were friends and lovers and clueless clowns
I didn't know I was finding out how I'd be torn from you
When we talked about things we were gonna do
We were wide-eyed dreamers and wiser too
We'd go down to the rides on east parade,
By the lights of the palace arcade
And watch night coming down on the Sovereign Light Café
I'm begging you for some sign,
But you've still got nothing to say
Don't turn your back on me, don't walk away
I'm a better man now than I was that day.
Let's go down to the rides on east parade,
By the lights of the palace arcade
And watch night coming down on the Sovereign Light Café
Let's go down to the bandstand on the pier
Watch the drunks and the lovers appear
To take turns as the stars of the Sovereign Light Café
I wheel my bike off the train,
Up the North Trade Road,
And look for you on Marley Lane
In every building, in every street side
Oh, why did we ever go so far from home?
Well, you got nothing to hide,
You can't change who you really are,
You can get a big house and a faster car
You can run away, boy, but you won't go far.
Let's go down to the rides on east parade,
By the lights of the palace arcade
And watch night coming down on the Sovereign Light Café
Let's go down to the bandstand on the pier
Watch the drunks and the lovers appear
To take turns as the stars of the Sovereign Light Café
Sha la la la la la la la ay, yeah,
I'm going where the people know my name
On The Road
|
And are you hearing that call?
'Cause you've got everything that you need to make a start
I had a dream of my own
Just walking out of my home
And going I don't know where to sing beneath the stars
Your whole life lies ahead
It's just around the bend
So when the sun is coming up and you go
And there's still so many things you don't know
Don't you look back, I've no doubt that I
Will see you on the road
When the world's laying you low
Why don't you let me carry your load?
When things get bad you know you have a friend
All along the road
And I would love it sometime
If you would walk at my side
Going I don't know where to sleep beneath the stars
If in your life you need a hand
Reaching the promised land
So when the sun is coming up and you go
And there's still so many things you don't know
Don't you look back, I've no doubt that I
Will see you on the road
When the world's laying you low
Why don't you let me carry your load?
When things get bad you know you have a friend
All along the road
All along the road
Golden light lies ahead
It's just around the bend
So when the sun is coming up and you go
And there's still so many things you don't know
Don't you look back, I've no doubt that I
Will see you on the road
When the world's laying you low
Why don't you let me carry your load?
When things get bad you know you have a friend
All along the road
So when the sun is coming up and you go
And there's still so many things you don't know
Don't you look back, I've no doubt that I
Will meet you on the road
When the world's laying you low
Don't you let it rattle your bones
Sometimes a dream itself can keep you safe
All along the road
All along the road
All along the road
All along the road
The Starting Line
|
The street lights that are daggers to your eyes
You can’t find your bearings, you’re slipping into the ground
This scene has no color and no sound
You still believe in me, after the things I’ve done,
You fear for what we have become
The ground is uneven, we stumble from day to day
Took shelter where it’s easy,
I know your feet are like lead but you’ve gotta get on the way.
Drag your heart up to the starting line,
Forget the ghosts that make you old before your time
It’s too easy to get left behind.
I know you’ve been kicked around,
But tie up your thoughts and lay them down on me
Each heart is a paper kite blown around by the breeze,
But love won’t rest till it brings you to your knees.
Some find it easy, some will never even know,
You think you’ve done your journey
Then you stumble and burn but there’s such a long way to go.
Drag your heart up to the starting line
Forget the ghosts that make you old before your time
It’s too easy to get left behind
I know you’ve been kicked around,
You wanna be lost and not be found,
Let’s take the back way into town
And drink to the bad times, lay them down on me.
Girl I still believe in you, you’re too good to fall so low
We’re gonna find a better life I know
Things will be clearer, and soon as we make a start,
We’ll be that much nearer
We’re too old to just stand here waiting to break apart
Drag your heart up to the starting line
Forget the ghosts that make you old before your time
It’s too easy to get left behind,
I know you’ve been kicked around
But tie up your thoughts and lay them down on me, on me, on me.
Black Rain
|
We swim as the breeze blows down the coast
Down on my luck, breathing my last
Dirty your hands, carry me home
Red sky turning round, black rain falling down
If you’ve got love you’d better hope that that’s enough
Sandstorm cuts your skin, Black Kites circling
If you’ve got love you’d better hope that that’s enough
We came from the south to Lebanon shore
Folded our clothes, dived into peace
The blackest of seas glittering red
Lit by the fire over our heads
Red sky turning round, black rain falling down
If you’ve got love you’d better hope that that’s enough
Sandstorm cuts your skin, Sunbirds circling
If you’ve got love you’d better hope that that’s enough
You’d better hope that that’s enough
Neon River
|
But that girl she reeled you in
This town was never good enough
'Cause she was gonna see everything
And if you ever spoke of love
She just smiled and put you down
'Cause she was making all the plans
She had a vision of light and sound
She said the neon on the river will light my way
And everything that we've been dreaming of, we'll make it real one day
So save your money, pack your bag
We better run before we disappear
She took the train into the city but you're still here
You hear a song that takes you back
To some long forgotten night
And friends who said they had your back
But they just turned and ran and let you fight
And on the bowling alley wall
You used all your smartest lines
But they've been painted over now
Looks like you're gonna get left behind
She said the neon on the river will light my way
And every things that we've been dreaming of, we'll make em real one day
So save your money, pack your bag
I wanna run with you on Stamford Hill
She took the train into the city but you stood still
You stood still above the track
You knew as you watched her go
That she was never coming back
You stop to places that you know
You said you were scared of heights
And that you didn't want to go
Where everyone else goes
She said the neon on the river will light my way
And everything that we've been dreaming of, we'll make it real one day
So save your money, pack your bag
We better run before we disappear
She took the train into the city but you're still here
She took the train into the city but you're still here
Day Will Come
|
And stolen your sight
You seem so far away
I hope you find your way back someday
I miss you, I miss you
Some days set your world on fire
And some days they sink like stones
That’s when your heart can cry out
Until your body is numb
And the night will try to change you
But the day will come
Dream hard and shoot high
Sometimes our fingers graze the sky
But we can’t hold on
Some days set your world on fire
And some days they sink like stones
That’s when your heart can cry out
Until your body is numb
And the night will try to change you
But the day will come
Brother don’t hang your head
Until your distance is run
‘Cause though it seems so far away
You know the day will come
Some days set your world on fire
And some days they sink like stones
That’s when your heart can cry out
Until your body is numb
And the night will try to change you
But the day will come
Brother don’t hang your head
Until your distance is run
‘Cause though it seems so far away
You know the day will come
In Your Own Time
|
Got no way out of this hole
Got no one to say it's all just the way things are
Wouldn't it be good
To look into a brighter day
It's just the way things are
In your own time
There's no map to guide our way
So I say nothing, you say nothing
In your own way
Thought I could help you find your place
But I'm as lost as you are lost these days
Oh wouldn't it be fine
To close your eyes and see something
Something more than this
In your own time
There's no map to guide our way
So I say nothing, you say nothing
In your own way
Thought I could help you find your place
But I'm as lost as you are lost
It's not the way
Things are going to change, you know
The battles you have fought won't go to waste, you know
The things are gonna change,
It just takes time
In your own time
There's no map to guide our way
So I say nothing, you say nothing
In your own way
Thought I could help you find your place
But I'm as lost as you are lost
It's just the way
It's just the way
It's just the way
It's just the way
Sea Fog
|
Hear the magpies sing for sorrow
It makes things better
Maybe we’ll get to spread
Our wings tomorrow
If luck will let us
Can anyone fly into these grey skies?
Is there somewhere I’m meant to be
Sea fog comes like a river
Rolls a stone it’s rolling me
I missed my turn,
In the dark I hear your voice
It makes things easy
I’ve strayed too far from the road
Where she could always make things easy
And I won’t fight through the rising tide
If that’s the way it has to be
Sea fog comes like a river
Rolls a stone it’s rolling me
Sea fog comes like a river
Rolls a stone it’s rolling me
Sea fog rolling
Sea fog rolling
Sea fog rolling
Strangeland
|
Laying out a map
Throwing our possessions
In the van
Your tapes piled on the backseat
And a camera in your hand
Dressed for our arrival
In the Strangeland
Strangeland blind
You got no reason, you got no rhyme
You give no time
To put things right
To put things right
You drove across the border
As the winter rains ran dry
And only fateful birdsong
Filled the sky
You threw your head back screaming
As we raced across wet sand
And lept into the waters
Of the Strangeland
Strangeland blind
You got no reason, you got no rhyme
You give no time
To put things right
To put things right
You wound the rope around me
And you pulled the knots in tight
And shook me like a bad dream
From your sight
And now the things I've done to forget you
Well it's not what I had planned
The sweetest thoughts get twisted
In the Strangeland
Strangeland blind
You got no reason, you got no rhyme
You give no time to put things right
To put things-
Strangeland dreams
You tore my baby away from me
We get no time
To put things right
To put things right
You give no time
To put things right
To put things right
To put things right
To put things right
Run With Me
|
Write it on a ten pound note
Everything that I have learned so far
Nothing's worth knowing till you know your part
Times are getting leaner
If ever you were on my side
Oh how I wish that you were stood here now
Leading me to shelter when the night comes down
"Baby" you said, "We're not ever gonna go home."
And "Baby, will you run with me wherever I go?"
Well it's the pressure of the years girl
Burning little holes in love
Till we make every little thing so hard
Nothing comes easy to a cage-like heart
Now the light is failing
If ever you were at my side
Then love I need you to be stood there now
Down to the wire where the bad ones go
"Baby" you said, "We're not ever gonna go home."
And "Baby, will you run with me wherever I go?"
Well maybe those words never really mattered at all
But lately those words run with me wherever I go.
"Baby" you said, "We're not ever gonna go home."
And "Baby, will you run with me wherever I go?"
"Baby" you said, "We're not ever gonna go home."
And "Baby, will you run with me wherever I go?"
The Boys
|
It's Friday night and they're trying so hard
The sun is dropping and they want to go
Driving into town to see some girls they know
The boys, blazing on a summer night
Girls they want to watch them ride
Is that the way it was before?
Cause I don't remember
Boys, friends at every bar in town
Running all the good days down
Is that the way it was before?
Cause I don't remember
We felt like fighters when we caught the plane
Until that day we'd never heard its name
We did some things we didn't understand
And now we feel like strangers in our own land
The boys, blazing on a summer night
Girls they want to watch them fight
Is that the way it was before?
Cause I can't remember
Boys, friends at every bar in town
Running all the good days down
Is that the way it was before?
Cause I can't remember
This photograph, I hold it when I sleep
Cause people soon stop asking
When I cannot explain what I have seen
And at the bars in town
All the boys in town
Are running all the good days down
Running all the good days down
Running all the good days down
All the good days down
It's Not True
|
Trading one bad move for another
It's been a stormy night but it's almost through
Friends you once loved don't know you
Even your own eyes don't know you
You think this whole world's trying to bury you
But it's not true
So don't you say
There's something in your core that can't be saved
Cause it's not true
And every atom of my heart is missing you
Well it's OK to be scared when
You're stuck behind a door that won't open
The shadows in your dreams that are chasing you
They're not true
So don't you say
There's something in your core that can't be saved
Cause it's not true
And every atom of my heart is missing you
The good will come through
I wish that you could feel it the way you used to
I wish you could believe it the way you used to
The way you used to
Myth
|
|
Put your heart into this baseless myth
Nurtured it like a child
And dressed its wounds when it ran wild
You stopped to fix your face
Someone else stepped in and took your place
Now everything you once knew
Is running circles around you
A car door slamming in your road
It jolts you like a kick inside
A year old message on your phone
That catches you when you can't hide
I see you in the service station sign
I see you in the supermarket line
I see you silhouetted on a wall
But I don't see myself there at all
This vessel of Balsa wood
Is the fag end tail of amoeba-hood
The busying cast confer
And get their taste of the drama
You stare through mindless daytime shows
And curse yourself for growing old
The sterile scent of shaving foam
Reminds you of another world
I see you in the roofless sombre sky
I see you when the lovers stop outside
I see you silhouetted on a wall
But I don't see myself there at all
I see you in the sweetness of our child
I see you in the supermarket aisle
I see you when I'm kneeling on the floor
But I can't see myself anymore
Hard times got the upper hand
Stole our feeble plans
The faces, shot me, spin me round
But I won't lie down
Hard times shake me to the bone
Face bruised, bloody nose
Shell shocked, crawling on the ground
Still I won't lie down
No I won't lie down
No I won't lie down
I won't lie down
Difficult Child
|
Somewhere Only We Know
|
|
I walked across an empty land
I knew the pathway like the back of my hand
I felt the earth beneath my feet
Sat by the river and it made me complete
Oh simple thing where have you gone?
I'm getting old and I need something to rely on
So tell me when you're gonna let me in
I'm getting tired and I need somewhere to begin
I came across a fallen tree
I felt the branches of it looking at me
Is this the place we used to love?
Is this the place that I've been dreaming of?
Oh simple thing where have you gone?
I'm getting old and I need something to rely on
So tell me when you're gonna let me in
I'm getting tired and I need somewhere to begin
And if you have a minute why don't we go
Talk about it somewhere only we know?
This could be the end of everything
So why don't we go
Somewhere only we know?
Oh simple thing where have you gone?
I'm getting old and I need something to rely on
So tell me when you're gonna let me in
I'm getting tired and I need somewhere to begin
And if you have a minute why don't we go
Talk about it somewhere only we know?
This could be the end of everything
So why don't we go
So why don't we go
Ooo
This could be the end of everything
So why don't we go
Somewhere only we know?
Somewhere only we know
Somewhere only we know
This Is The Last Time
|
 |
 |
This is the last time
That I will say these words
I remember the first time
The first of many lies
Sweep it into the corner
Or hide it under the bed
Say these things they go away
But they never do
Something I wasn't sure of
But I was in the middle of
Something I forget now
But I've seen too little of
The last time
You fall on me for anything you like
Your one last line
You fall on me for anything you like
And years make everything alright
You fall on me for anything you like
And I, no I don't mind
This is the last time
That I will show my face
One last tender lie
And then I'm out of this place
So tread it into the carpet
Or hide it under the stairs
You say that some things never die
Well I tried and I tried
Something I wasn't sure of
But I was in the middle of
Something I forget now
But I've seen too little of
The last time
You fall on me for anything you like
Your one last line
You fall on me for anything you like
And years make everything alright
You fall on me for anything you like
And I, no I don't mind
The last time
You fall on me for anything you like
Your one last line
You fall on me for anything you like
And years make everything alright
You fall on me for anything you like
And I, no I don't mind
Bend And Break
|
 |
When you, when you forget your name
When old faces all look the same
Meet me in the morning when you wake up
Meet me in the morning then you'll wake up
If only I don't bend and break
I'll meet you on the other side
I'll meet you in the light
If only I don't suffocate
I'll meet you in the morning when you wake
Lovesick bitter and hardened heart
Aching waiting for night waiting for life to start
Meet me in the morning when you wake up
Meet me in the morning then you'll wake up
If only I don't bend and break
I'll meet you on the other side
I'll meet you in the light
If only I don't suffocate
I'll meet you in the morning when you wake
Ooo
If only I don't bend and break
I'll meet you on the other side
I'll meet you in the light
If only I don't suffocate
I'll meet you in the morning when you wake
I'll meet you on the other side
I'll meet you in the light
If only I don't suffocate
I'll meet you in the morning when you wake
We Might As Well Be Strangers
 |
I don't know your face no more
Or feel the touch that I adore
I don't know your face no more
It's just a place I'm looking for
We might as well be strangers in another town
We might as well be living in a different world
We might as well, we might as well, we might as well
I don't know your thoughts these days
We're strangers in an empty space
I don't understand your heart
It's easier to be apart
We might as well be strangers in another town
We might as well be living in another time
We might as well, we might as well, we might as well
Be strangers
Be strangers
For all I know of you now
For all I know of you now
For all I know of you now
For all I know
Everybody's Changing
|
 |
 |
You say you wander your own land
But when I think about it, I don't see how you can
You're aching, you're breaking, and I can see the pain in your eyes
Says everybody's changing and I don't know why
So little time
Try to understand that I'm
Trying to make a move just to stay in the game
I try to stay awake and remember my name
But everybody's changing and I don't feel the same
You're gone from here, soon you will disappear, fading into beautiful light
Cos everybody's changing and I don't feel right
So little time
Try to understand that I'm
Trying to make a move just to stay in the game
I try to stay awake and remember my name
But everybody's changing and I don't feel the same
So little time
Try to understand that I'm
Trying to make a move just to stay in the game
I try to stay awake and remember my name
But everybody's changing and I don't feel the same
Oh everybody's changing and I don't feel the same
Your Eyes Open
|
Well it's a lonely road that you have chosen
Morning comes and you don't want to know me anymore
And it's a long time since your heart was frozen
Morning comes and you don't want to know me anymore
For a moment your eyes open and you know
All the things I ever wanted you to know
I don't know you and I don't want to
Till the moment your eyes open and you know
That it's a lonely place that you have run to
Morning comes and you don't want to know me anymore
And it's a lonely end that you will come to
Morning comes and you don't want to know me anymore
For a moment your eyes open and you know
All the things I ever wanted you to know
I don't know you and I don't want to
Till the moment your eyes open and you know
For a moment your eyes open and you know
All the things I ever wanted you to know
I don't know you and I don't want to
Till the moment your eyes open and you know
She Has No Time
|
You think your days are uneventful
And no one ever thinks about you
She goes her own way
She goes her own way
You say your days are ordinary
And no one ever thinks about you
But we're all the same
And she can hardly breathe without you
She says she has no time
For you now
She says she has no time
Think about the lonely people
Then think about the day she found you
Or lie to yourself
And see it all dissolve around you
She says she has no time
For you now
She says she has no time
For you now
She says she has no time
Lonely people tumble downwards
My heart opens up to you
When she says
She has no time
For you now
She says she has no time
For you now
She says she has no time
Can't Stop Now
|
I noticed tonight that the world has been turning
While I've been stood here dithering around
Well I know I said I'd wait around till you need me
But I have to go, I hate to let you down
But I can't stop now
I've got trouble of my own
Cos I'm short on time
I'm lonely and I'm too tired to talk
I noticed tonight that the world has been turning
While I've been stood here withering away
Well I know I said I wouldn't leave you behind
But I have to go, it breaks my heart to say
That I can't stop now
I've got troubles of my own
Cos I'm short on time
I'm lonely and I'm too tired to talk
To no one back home
I've got troubles of my own
And I can't slow down for no one in town
No I can't stop now
And I can't slow down for no one in town
And I can't stop now for no one
The motion keeps my heart running
The motion keeps my heart running
The motion keeps my heart running
The motion keeps my heart running
Sunshine

I hold you in my hands
A little animal
And only some dumb idiot
Would let you go
But if I'm one thing
Then that's the one thing
I should know
Can anybody find their home
Out of everyone can anybody find their home
I hold you in cupped hands
And shield you from a storm
Where only some dumb idiot
Would let you go
But if I'm one thing
Then that's the one thing
I should know
Can anybody find their home
Out of everyone can anybody find their home
Lost in the sun can anybody find their home
Come on, come on, come on, can anybody find their home
Oh, can anybody find their home
Out of everyone can anybody find their home
Lost in the sun can anybody find their home
Come on, come on, come on, can anybody find their home
Ooo, and on and on and on on on on...
Untitled I

A house on fire
A wall of stone
A door that once was open
An empty face and empty bones
Who ate your heart?
You're cold inside
You're not the one I hoped for
I'll see you on the other side
I'll see you on the other side
The wind wouldn't blow me home
To lie in your heart of hearts
Will I ever see you again
And lie in your heart of hearts
Who ate your heart?
You're cold inside
You're not the one I hoped for
I'll see you on the other side
I'll see you on the other side
The wind wouldn't blow me home
To lie in your heart of hearts
Will I ever see you again
And lie in your heart of hearts
Bedshaped
|
|
Many's the time I ran with you down
The rainy roads of our old town
Many the lives we lived in each day
And buried altogether
Don't laugh at me
Don't look away
You'll follow me back
Bedshaped, and legs of stone
You'll knock on my door, and up we'll go
In white light, I don't think so
But what do I know, what do I know?
I know
I know you think I'm holding you down
And I've fallen by the wayside now
And I don't understand the same things as you
But I do
Don't laugh at me
Don't look away
You'll follow me back
With the sun in your eyes, and on your own
Bedshaped, and legs of stone
You'll knock on my door, and up we'll go
In white light, I don't think so
But what do I know, what do I know?
I know
And up we'll go
In white light, I don't think so
But what do I know, what do I know?
I know
On A Day Like Today
|
On a day like today
I looked at you and I
Saw something in the way
You stared into the sky
I saw you, were sick and tired of my wrong turns
If you only knew, the way I feel
I'd really love to tell you
But I
Could never seem to say
The things I needed to
On a day like today
No other words would do
I saw you, were sick and tired of my wrong turns
If you only knew, the way I feel
I'd really love to tell you
But I
Can never find the words to say
And I don't know why
I can't find the words to say
And I don't know why
I can't find the words to say
And I don't know why
I can't find the words to say
And I don't know why
And I don't know why
And I don't know why
And I don't know why
I saw you
Were sick and tired of my wrong turns
If you only knew, the way I feel
I'd really love to tell you
But I
Can never find the words to say
And I don't know why
I can't find the words to say
And I don't know why
Snowed Under
 |
There's a cold voice on the air
You've been looking everywhere
For someone to understand your hopes and fears
Well I've thought about that for many long years
So I walk through Mansers Shaw
I don't see you anymore
We love to think about the way things were
But the time has come and I'm glad it's over
I don't know why I waste my time
Getting hung up about the things you say
When I open my eyes and it's a lovely day
You know sometimes I feel like I'm
Getting snowed under with the things you say
When I open my eyes and it's a lovely day
Now you think that you're alone
So you make your way back home
I'd love to greet the weary traveller
But your time has gone and I'm glad it's over
I don't know why I waste my time
Getting hung up about the things you say
When I open my eyes and it's a lovely day
You know sometimes I feel like I'm
Getting snowed under with the things you say
When I open my eyes and it's a lovely day
I don't know why I waste my time
Getting hung up about the things you say
When I open my eyes and it's a lovely day
You know sometimes I feel like I'm
Getting snowed under with the things you say
When I open my eyes and it's a lovely day
Walnut Tree
|
Once there was a great storm,
Pushed my head beneath the waves,
I was gone.
Underneath the walnut tree,
Where you said you'd wait for me,
And I waited a long, long time
I waited a long, long time,
I waited a long, long time,
I waited a long, long time,
I waited a long, long time.
Why, why do I come here?
Seeking out the memories I hold in,
'Cause you put your spell on me,
Made me live in memory,
And im frozen in just the wrong time.
I waited a long, long time,
I waited a long, long time,
I waited a long, long time,
I waited a long, long time.
Fly To Me
|
Don’t turn your back on me
Conceal and protect me
I need you to stop me
From reeling around
The time’s gonna come
When you no longer need me
But stay by my side ‘til the sun has gone down
When I am an old man
And live by the sea
Will all your thoughts fly to me?
As much as I want you
I can’t hold on to you
When will you return to your old home again?
May love lie around you
Good fortunes surround you
You know where to turn to
When you need a friend
When I am an old man
And live by the sea
Will all your thoughts fly to me?
When I'm far away from the places we’ve known
Will all your love bring me home?
When I am an old man
And live by the sea
Will all your thoughts fly to me?
When I'm far away from the places we’ve known
Will all your love bring me home?
Bring me home?
To the end of the earth
|
Up in the old town
When my mind was wallowing
Down empty hallways
When will I be one again?
You're just
Making it harder for yourself
Making it easy for everyone else
Making it easy for me
In the old time
You'll never be in and you get never get out
You'll learn from my family
You'll never be in and you get never get out
To run to the end of the earth
Under the archways
Where my mind is wallowing
Down to the country
Where will I be well again
You're just
Making it harder for yourself
Making it easy for everyone else
Making it easy for me
In the old time
You'll never be in and you get never get out
You'll learn from my family
You'll never be in and you get never get out
To run to the end of the earth
To the end of the earth and run
To the end of the earth
Build me a home underground
Free from light and sound
Build me a home in the air
I will run, to the end
To the end of the earth
And run to the end of the earth
You're just
Making it harder for yourself
Making it easy for everyone else
Making it easy for me
In the old time
You'll never be in and you get never get out
You'll learn from your family
You'll never be in and you get never get out
To run to the end of the earth
To the end of the earth and run
To the end of the earth
To the end of the earth and run
To the end of the earth
Something In Me Was Dying
 |
Something in me was dying
And my heart was heavy as stone
Hard as i was trying
I never could find, find my way home
And your voice came out of nowhere
Be my friend and give me your hand
Let's take off together
And then we can live wherever we land
Something in me was broken
And my thoughts were bitter and ill
My world was blown open
And I couldn’t see and i couldn’t feel
You said be yourself and think of me
And you'll know there's nothing to fear
Let's make plans together
It's time to move on and get out of here
Girl i need you
Don’t know what I would do
Will you see the story through
It's a cruel world
And I need somewhere to hide
But time goes by
And your still on my side
Something in me was sinking
Cause my heart was heavy as stone
I gave up with thinking
I never would find, find my way home
And your voice came out of nowhere
Be my friend and give me your hand
Let's take off together
And then we can live wherever we land
Girl i need you
Don’t know what i would do
Will you see the story through
It's a cruel world
And i need somewhere to hide
The time goes by and your still on my side
Waiting
Searching
Turning over
Running round in circles
And i've worn myself out
Hoping that we'll always be together
yeah we'll always be together
yeah we'll always be together
yeah we'll always be together
yeah we'll always be together
yeah we'll always be together
yeah we'll always be together
Untitled II

Ya chewed me up and ya spat me out
the foolish boy that I am
so I chose to wander and ramble around
and make myself a man
I thought the world could be changed by
a good song and smile
but its been this way such a long time
so maybe I’m wrong
so long ago it must be
you're still the one that's troubling me
and still so far, so far away
I sat with a tear in my hand on a day so long ago
inside I am an ogre
with the simple thoughts of a child
I say what I think and I need to be loved
but I guess that's not your style
so long ago it must be
that you're still the one that's troubling me
and still so far, so far away
I sat with a tear in my hand on a day so long ago
Allemande
|
Allemande, where have you gone?
Did I know anything about you?
Many moons, have come and gone
They wane so easily without you
All along, I said we'd be
Sorry, sorry, and so we are
Ain't that the way that the way that the wind blows (x3)
You home
Sorry, sorry, and so we are
Allemande, your face so long
And all my silly hopes hung on you
All along I said we'd be
Sorry, sorry, and so we are
Ain't that the way that the way that the wind blows x3
You home
Sorry, sorry, and so we are
Oooooo Oooooo
Oooooo Oooooo
Oooooo Oooooo
Oooooo Oooooo
No...
The way that the wind blows you home
Sorry, sorry, and so we are
She Opens Her Eyes
|
Your face in a dream returns
Once in a lifetime comes
And it passes by
Im never on your side
And you must be blind
If you dont know why
She'll always take you for granted
A voice in the back of my mind said
You could be waiting your whole life
For her to open her eyes
Call Me What You Like
 |
There's no believing and no reason why
Well I'm superstitious and I can fly
There's nothing to see
And nothing to hide
I'm scared and surrounded
I only need a while
I float through the ceiling
And into the sky
Call me what you like
I just wanna be there with you all the time
Do you wanna be here with me?
All the time
There's no believing and no real surprise
Well I am a ghost here, appearing in the night
To float through the ceiling
And into your eyes
Call me what you like
I just wanna be there with you all the time
Do you wanna be here with me?
All the time
Woah
I float through the ceiling
And into your eyes
Call me what you like
I just wanna be there with you all the time
Do you wanna be here with me?
Shup da, la la da be da...

I hope all my days
Will be lit by your face
I hope all the years
Will hold tight our promises
I don't wanna be old and sleep alone
An empty house is not a home
I don't wanna be old and feel afraid
I don't wanna be old and sleep alone
An empty house is not a home
I don't wanna be old and feel afraid
And if I need anything at all
I need a place
That's hidden in the deep
Where lonely angels sing you to your sleep
Though all the world is broken
I need a place
Where I can make my bed
A lover's lap where I can lay my head
Cos now the room is spinning
The day's beginning
Is It Any Wonder
|
|
I always thought that I knew
I'd always have the right to
Be living in the kingdom of the good and true
And so on
But now I think I was wrong
And you were laughing along
And now I look a fool for thinking you were on, my side
Is it any wonder that I'm tired?
Is it any wonder that I feel uptight?
Is it any wonder I don't know what's right?
Sometimes
It's hard to know where I stand
It's hard to know where I am
Or maybe it's a puzzle I don't understand
Sometimes
I get the feeling that I'm
Stranded in the wrong time
Where love is just a lyric in children's rhyme, a soundbite
Is it any wonder that I'm tired?
Is it any wonder that I feel uptight?
Is it any wonder I don't know what's right
Oh these days?
After all the misery made
Is it any wonder that I feel afraid?
Is it any wonder that I feel betrayed?
Nothing left beside this old cathedral
Just the sad lonely spires
How do you make it right?
Oh but you try
Is it any wonder that I'm tired?
Is it any wonder that I feel uptight?
Is it any wonder I don't know what's right?
Oh these days
After all the misery made
Is it any wonder that I feel afraid?
Is it any wonder that I feel betrayed?
Nothing In My Way
|
|
A turning tide
Lovers at a great divide
Why d'you laugh
When I know that you hurt inside?
And why'd you say
"It's just another day, nothing in my way
I don't wanna go, I don't wanna stay
So there's nothing left to say?"
And why'd you lie
When you wanna die, when you hurt inside
Don't know what you lie for anyway
Now there's nothing left to say
A tell-tale sign
You don't know where to draw the line
And why'd you say
"It's just another day, nothing in my way
I don't wanna go, I don't wanna stay
So there's nothing left to say"
And why'd you lie
When you wanna die, when you hurt inside
Don't know what you lie for anyway
Now there's nothing left to say
Well for a lonely soul, you're having such a nice time
For a lonely soul, you're having such a nice time
For a lonely soul, it seems to me that you're having such a nice time
You're having such a nice time
For a lonely soul, you're having such a nice time (Just another day, nothing in my way)
For a lonely soul, you're having such a nice time (I don't wanna go I don't wanna stay)
For a lonely soul, it seems to me that you're having such a nice time (Just another day, nothing in my way)
You're having such a nice time (Don't know what you lie for anyway)
Leaving So Soon
|
Ah, ah ah, ah ah, ah!
Ah, ah ah, ah ah, ah!
You must think I'm a fool
So prosaic and awkward and all
D'you think you've got me down?
D'you think I've never been out of this town?
Do I seem too eager to please to you now?
You don't know me at all
I can't turn it on, turn off like you now
I'm not like you now
Now that you're here
I bet you're wishing you could disappear
I'm trying to be kind
I get the feeling you're just killing time
You look down on me
Don't you look down on me now
You don't know me at all
A slap in the face
In the face for you now
Just might do now
You're leaving so soon
Never had a chance to bloom
But you were so quick
To change your tune
Don't look back
If I'm a weight around your neck
Cos if you don't need me
I don't need you
Ah, ah ah, ah ah, ah!
Ah, ah ah, ah ah, ah!
Leaving so soon, soon
Leaving, leaving so, soon
You're leaving so soon
Never had a chance to bloom
But you were so quick
To change your tune
Don't look back
If I'm a weight around your neck
Cos if you don't need me
Then I don't need you
Ah, ah ah, ah ah, ah!
A Bad Dream
|
|
Why do I have to fly
Over every town up and down the line?
I'll die in the clouds above
And you that I defend, I do not love
I wake up, it's a bad dream
Noone on my side
I was fighting
But I just feel too tired
To be fighting
Guess I'm not the fighting kind
Where will I meet my fate?
Baby I'm a man, I was born to hate
And when will I meet my end?
In a better time you could be my friend
I wake up, it's a bad dream
Noone on my side
I was fighting
But I just feel too tired
To be fighting
Guess I'm not the fighting kind
Wouldn't mind it
If you were by my side
But you're long gone
Yeah you're long gone now
Where do we go?
I don't even know
My strange old face
And I'm thinking about those days
And I'm thinking about those days
I wake up, it's a bad dream
Noone on my side
I was fighting
But I just feel too tired
To be fighting
Guess I'm not the fighting kind
Wouldn't mind it
If you were by my side
But you're long gone
Yeah you're long gone now
Hamburg Song
|
I don't wanna be adored
Don't wanna be first in line
Or make myself heard
I'd like to bring a little light
To shine a light on your life
To make you feel loved
No, don't wanna be the only one you know
I wanna be the place you call home
I lay myself down
To make it so, but you don't want to know
I give much more
Than I'd ever ask for
Will you see me in the end
Or is it just a waste of time
Trying to be your friend
Just shine, shine, shine
Shine a little light
Shine a light on my life
Warm me up again
Fool, I wonder if you know yourself at all
You know that it could be so simple
I lay myself down
To make it so, but you don't want to know
You take much more
Than I'd ever ask for
Say a word or two to brighten my day
Do you think that you could see your way
To lay yourself down
And make it so, but you don't want to know
You take much more
Than I'd ever ask for
Put It Behind You
|
Time goes by at such a pace
It's funny how it's easy to forget her face
You hide the cracks, the facts will find you
Turn your back and leave the lonely days behind you now
You better put it behind you now
You better put it behind you now
Too much to hold on, hold on to
You better put it behind you now
All the things you took for granted
Hit you like a bullet in the gut
You can't get up
Well are you gonna even try?
Cos if you never even try
Time will pass you by
You better put it behind you now
You better put it behind you now
Too much to hold on, hold on to (Hold on, hold on to)
You better put it behind you now
You better put it behind you now
Too much to hold on, to hold on to (Hold on, hold on to)
You better do what's best for you
Don't care what she said and (Better put it behind you now, better put it behind you now)
Only in your head (Hold on, hold on to)
Time will help you out (Better put it behind you now, you better put it behind you now)
Still you don't see how (Hold on, hold on to)
You better put it behind you now
You better put it behind you now
Too much to hold on, to hold on to
You better do what's best for you
The Iron Sea

Instrumental
Crystal Ball
|
|
Who is the man I see
Where I'm supposed to be?
I lost my heart, I buried it too deep
Under the iron sea
Oh, crystal ball, crystal ball
Save us all, tell me life is beautiful
Mirror, mirror on the wall
Lines ever more unclear
I'm not sure I'm even here
The more I look the more I think that I'm
Starting to disappear
Oh, crystal ball, crystal ball
Save us all, tell me life is beautiful
Mirror, mirror on the wall
Oh, crystal ball, hear my song
I'm fading out, everything I know is wrong
So put me where I belong
I don't where I am
And I don't really care
I look myself in eye
There's noone there
I fall upon the earth
I call upon the air
But all I get is the same old vacant stare
Oh, crystal ball, crystal ball
Save us all, tell me life is beautiful
Mirror, mirror on the wall
Oh, crystal ball, hear my song
I'm fading out, everything I know is wrong
So put me where I belong
Try Again
|
|
I fell asleep on a late night train
I missed my stop and I went round again
Why would I want to see you now?
To fix it up, make it up somehow
Baby I'll try again, try again
Baby I die every night, every time
What I was isn't what I am
I'd change back but I don't know if I can
Still I'll try, try again, try again
Baby I die every night, every time
But I was made the way I am
I'm not a stone; I'm just a man
Lay down your arms and I will lay down mine
Rip back the time that we've been wasting
God I wish you could see me now
You'd pick me up and you'd sort me out
Still I'll try, try again, try again
Baby I die every night, every time
Broken Toy
|
I think you know
Because it's old news
The people you love
Are hard to find
So I think if I
Were in your shoes
I would be kind
I look out for you
Come rain, come shine
What good does it do?
I guess I'm a toy that is broken
I guess we're just older now
I want to stay
Another season
See summer upon
This sorry land
So don't dust off your gun
Without a reason
You understand
I look out for you
Come rain, come shine
What good does it do?
I guess I'm a toy that is broken
I guess we're just older now
Who says the river can't leave its waters?
Who says you walk in a line?
Who says the city can't change its borders?
Who says you're mine?
I look out for you
Come rain, come shine
What good does it do?
I guess I'm a record you're tired of
I guess we're just older now
I guess I'm a toy that is broken
I guess we're just older now
The Frog Prince
|
An old fairytale told me
The simple heart will be prized again
A toad will be our king
And ugly ogres are heroes
Then you'll shake
Your fist at the sky
"Oh why did I rely
On fashions and small fry?"
All promises broken
Feed your people or lose your throne
And forfeit your whole kingdom
I'd sooner lose it than still live in it alone
You were our golden child
But the gentle and the mild
Inherit the earth, while
Your prince's crown
Cracks and falls down
Your castle hollow and cold
You've wandered so far
From the person you are
Let go brother, let go
Cos now we all know
Soon, someone will put a spell on you
Perfume, treasure, sorcery, every trick they know
You will lie in a deep sleep
That's when
Your prince's crown
Cracks and falls down
Your castle hollow and cold
You've wandered so far
From the person you are
Let go brother, let go
Cos now we all know
Let It Slide
|
|
The same, always the same
Bitter words are all that remain
Of the dream that had taken you in
But all her words were dust in the wind
It's time to draw the line
To draw the fire
Why'd you never know
The time to let go
The time to move aside
To let it slide
Say, what's that you say?
Time to move on and you're in the way
Lets get to the end and not turn around
She built you up so she could knock you down
It's time to draw the line
To draw the fire
Why'd you never know
The time to let go
The time to move aside
To let it slide
Friend, there's nothing there
You're clinging on to air
You're reaching back
To something that you never had
It's time to draw the line
To draw the fire
Why'd you never know
The time to let go
The time to move aside
To let it slide
To let it slide
Why'd you never know
The time to let go
The time to move aside
To let it slide
He Used To Be A Lovely Boy
|
|
Time to leave this town
Now your dreams have all let you down
Noone here will miss you now
Time to wake up and look around
He used to be a lovely boy
Lovely boy
Lovely boy
He used to be a lovely boy
Turn away and turn ahead
"Just a hopeless dreamer", she said
Eyes of cloud and feet of lead
Find a shore that needs you instead
He used to be a lovely boy
Lovely boy
Lovely boy
He used to be a lovely boy
Time on your hands
World at your feet
No adventure left incomplete
Find a place where you can hide
From the love that holds you inside
Time so unkind
Like an old friend leaves you behind
He used to be a lovely boy
Lovely boy
Lovely boy
He used to be a lovely boy
Time on your hands
Maybe I Can Change
|
|
Now, will it ever be the same again?
And it will it ever feel right?
The false start, then I try to twist your heart
But I supposed it always knows
I know how I let you down
But maybe I can change this time around
This heart and these hands are mine
Maybe I can change this time
Soon, I'm gonna be an older man
And I will struggle to remember
The blank space when I tried to see your face
The blinded eye, I can't replace
I know how I let you down
But maybe I can change this time around
This heart and these hands are mine
Maybe I can change this time
Oh why can't we go back again?
Rain, rain, will you ever go away?
Come back again some other day
I know how I let you down
But maybe I can change this time around
This heart and these hands are mine
Maybe I can change this time
But I've tired you out with the things I do
But I can change, and change you too
But still somehow, I have to say
I'm on my way
Gone
Thin Air
|
|
I can't keep up
You're moving too fast
Deep holes and darkness
These things will part
Dark times and strange places where
When I came to see you
You had nothing to say
I stood right beside you
You turned the other way
I reached out to hold you
And found nobody there
You turn into air
Trust me, I want you
Just as you are
Don't change the things you do
Just stay as you are
Dark times and strange places where
When I came to see you
You had nothing to say
I stood right beside you
You turned the other way
I reached out to hold you
And found nobody there
You turn into air
Dark times and strange places where
When I came to see you
You had nothing to say
I stood right beside you
You turned the other way
I reached out to hold you
And found nobody there
You turn into air

Oh the heads that turn
Make my back burn
And those heads that turn
Make my back, make my back burn
The sparkle in your eyes
Keeps me alive
And the sparkle in your eyes
Keeps me alive, keeps me alive
The world, and the world drags me down
The world, the world drags me down
Oh the heads that turn
Make my back burn
And those heads that turn
Make my back, make my back burn
Yeah, yeah, yeah
The fire in your eyes
Keeps me alive
And the fire in your eyes
Keeps me alive
And so in her you'll find
The sanctuary
And so in her you'll find
The sanctuary
And the world
The world turns me around
And the world and the world
The world drags me down
And the world and the world and the world
The world drags me down
And the world and the world and the world and the world
The world drags me down
Ah...
Hey yeah....

Yeah the world turns around
And the world and the world
The world drags me down
Spiralling
 |
|
I'm waiting for my moment to come
I'm waiting for the movie to begin
I'm waiting for a revelation
I'm waiting for someone to count me in
Because now I only see my dreams in everything I touch
Feel their cold hands on everything that I love
Cold like some magnificent skyline
Out of my reach but always in my eye line
Now we're tumbling down
We're spiralling
Tied up to the ground
We're spiralling
I fashioned you from jewels and stone
I made you in the image of myself
I gave you everything you wanted
So you would never know anything else
But every time I reach for you, you slip through my fingers
Into cold sunlight, laughing at the things that I had planned
The map of my world gets smaller as I sit here
Pulling at the loose threads
Now we're tumbling down
We're spiralling
Tied up to the ground
We're spiralling
When we fall in love
We're just falling
In love with ourselves
We're spiralling
Did you want to be a winner?
Did you want to be an icon?
Did you want to be famous?
Did you want to be the president?
Did you want to start a war?
Did you want to have a family?
Did you want to be in love?
Did you want to be in love?
I never saw the light
I never saw the light
I waited up all night
But I never saw the light
When we fall in love
We're just falling
In love with ourselves
We're spiralling
We're tumbling down
We're spiralling
Now we're tumbling down
We're spiralling
Tied up to the ground
We're spiralling
The Lovers Are Losing
|
|
I dreamed I was drowning in the River Thames
I dreamed I had nothing at all
Nothing but my own skin
I dreamed I was drifting on the howling wind
I dreamed I had nothing at all
Nothing but my own skin
Slipped away from your open hands
Into the river
Saw your face looking back at me
I saw my past and I saw my future
You take the pieces of the dreams that you have
Because you don’t like the way they seem to be going
You cut them up and spread them out on the floor
You’re full of hope as you begin rearranging
Put it all back together
But any way you look at things
Looks like the lovers are losing
I dreamed I was watching the young lovers dance
I reached out to touch your hair
But I was watching from a distance
We cling to love like a skidding car
Clings to a corner
I try to hold on to what we are
The more I squeeze the quicker we alter
You take the pieces of the dreams that you have
Because you don’t like the way they seem to be going
You cut them up and spread them out on the floor
You’re full of hope as you begin rearranging
Put it all back together
But any way you look at things
Looks like the lovers are losing
I dreamed I had nothing at all
Nothing but my own skin
You take the pieces of the dreams that you have
Because you don’t like the way they seem to be going
You cut them up and spread them out on the floor
You’re full of hope as you begin rearranging
Put it all back together
But any way you look at things
Looks like the lovers are losing
You take the pieces of the dreams that you have
Because you don’t like the way they seem to be going
You cut them up and spread them out on the floor
You’re full of hope as you begin rearranging
Put it all back together
But in the final reckoning
Looks like the lovers are losing
Better Than This
|
|
Is this what you meant?
Is this what you dreamed of
When you were making your plans
Shaking the dirt off?
Do you feel like you and I belong?
Just keep your eyes on the road
And nothing can go wrong
You can do so much better than this
You can do so much better than this
I’ve been checking my sums
Oh where did the time go?
Holding my photograph up to the window
Through the paper and refracted sun
I can see all the things I wish that I’d done
You can hang your hopes on the medicine
You can put your faith in the phone-in
You can tell yourself you’re doing your best
You can do so much better than this
Get a grip on yourself
Get a grip on yourself
Could have been something but you’re too late
And you weren’t invited anyway
Because the photographs show the wrong man
Because there is no soap star holding your hand
You don’t see yourself in the freeze frame
Must be someone else using your name
And everyone will be the same
And everyone will glow
And everywhere you’ll see your name
In every shop window
It’s better than this
You can do so much better than this
You can do so much better than this
You can do so much better than this
You Haven't Told Me Anything
|
In a pearl grey room one afternoon
In one afternoon what are you going to do?
I hang on your words but there’s nothing new
You take a beautiful thing
Pull off a wing, pull off a wing
With a safety pin
They never shine quite as bright again
But you haven’t told me anything
That I didn’t already know
No you haven’t said a single thing
That I didn’t already know
Everything I love is stuck in the mud
Stuck in the mud, stuck in a rut
Not a piece in your puzzle or a paper cut
So same time next week
Kiss on the cheek, kiss on the cheek
And say after me
Everything’s tied up nice and neat
But you haven’t told me anything
That I didn’t already know
No you haven’t sold me anything
That I didn’t already own
I feel for you, I really do
Nothing adds up like you want it to
No words can mend this fix I’m in
Give me your worst, I won’t even blink
Right between the eyes, I won’t feel a thing
Because you haven’t told me anything
That I didn’t already know
No you haven’t said a single thing
That I didn’t already know
No you haven’t told me anything
Perfect Symmetry
|
 |
I shake through the wreckage for signs of life
Scrolling through the paragraphs
Clicking through the photographs
I wish I could make sense of what we do
Burning down the capitals
The wisest of the animals
Who are you? What are you living for?
Tooth for tooth, maybe we’ll go one more
This life is lived in perfect symmetry
What I do, that will be done to me
Read page after page of analysis
Looking for the final score
We’re no closer than we were before
Who are you? What are you fighting for?
Holy truth? Brother I choose this mortal life
Lived in perfect symmetry
What I do, that will be done to me
As the needle slips into the run-out groove
Love - maybe you’ll feel it too
And maybe you’ll find life is unkind
And over so soon
There is no golden gate
There’s no heaven waiting for you
Oh boy you ought to leave this town
Get out while you can the meter’s running down
The voices in the streets you love
Everything is better when you hear that sound
Spineless dreamers hide in churches
Pieces of pieces of rush hour buses
I dream in emails, worn-out phrases
Mile after mile of just empty pages
Wrap yourself around me
Wrap yourself around me
As the needle slips into the run-out groove
Maybe you’ll feel it too
Maybe you’ll feel it too
You Don’t See Me
|
Like beautiful dolls
All made up and bright
Radiant people in splintering light
All moving at the speed of life
Reflected in each other’s eyes
But you’re moving so fast through this beautiful scene
You don’t see me
You don’t see me
Oh truly we are a fortunate few
Who turn on your axis, revolve around you
All spinning outwards from your sun
Passing your reflection on
In your hurry to grasp everything that you see
You don’t see me
You don’t see me
You don’t see me
No, you don’t see me
Such a beautiful view
I guess you’ve seen it all
But you, you see nothing at all
Such a beautiful view
Shining so bright
Shining so bright, so bright
All moving at the speed of life
Reflected in each other’s eyes
But you’re moving with such irresistible speed
You don’t see me
You don’t see me
You don’t see me
No, you don’t see me
No, you don’t see me
Again And Again
|
Was it all in real time or was it just in my mind?
Was I just a ghost passing through you
Clinging to the wreckage, till I got the message?
Hanging at the edge of the room
Give me something that’s real
Give me half of your bitterest pill
Something from under the surface you actually feel
We say these words again and again
But they still sound the same
It was in your eyes, in your eyes
They were just easy lies
The lightest words are heavy and promises are easy
And no one’s ever happy or sad for very long
Well just because I said it, it doesn’t mean I meant it
I guess that was the way all along
I’m just shaping the sound
I’m just turning the syllables round
Dipping my toe in the water and watching you drown
We say these words again and again
But they still sound the same
It was in my eyes, in my eyes
They were just easy lies
And we’ve been a long time waiting
And it’s been a lifetime in the making
We said, “When you are alone and afraid
I will come to your aid”
Well was it just a dream, just a dream?
Because it was real to me
We say these words again and again
But they still sound the same
We say these words again and again
And again and again
Playing Along
|
At the start of the news day
The fires begin
In words and in pictures
But I’m not listening
I’m not taking it in
I’m going to go to the country
Where nothing goes on
Going to bury my head
Where I can’t hear the sound of bombs
Playing along
Me, I’m just playing along
You and I, so many good people
All just playing along
I’m going to go to a bar
Where the jukebox is on
Going to shut out the noise
With a rock 'n' roll song
Playing along
I’m going to turn up the volume
I’m going to turn up the volume
I’m going to turn up the volume
Till I can’t even think
Tell us a tale of the proud and the free
Sing us a swing time American melody
From Follow The Fleet
Me, I’m just playing along
You and I, a billion people
All just playing along
I’m going to turn up the volume
I’m going to turn up the volume
I’m going to turn up the volume
Till I can’t even think
Pretend That You’re Alone
|
We are just the monkeys who fell out of the trees
We are blisters on the earth
And we are not the flowers, we're the strangling weeds in the meadow
And love is just our way of looking out for ourselves
When we don't want to live alone
So step into the vacuum, tear off your clothes and be born again
Pretend that you're alone now and everything's gone
Just animal reflexes no one looking on
Forget about fashion, forget about the law
Pretend that you're alone now
I wonder what I'd do if I could wake up every morning with a clean slate
I'd burn through the cities and tear through the towns because there's no deals to make
So break out of the cages, the delicate structures we cling to all our lives
Because we are just the monkeys who fell out of the trees
When we were trying to fly
Pretend that you're alone now and everything's gone
Just primal desire, no right and no wrong
Forget about the future, forget about blame
Pretend that you're alone now
She's not waiting for tomorrow
And she has no love in her eyes
Oh no, I want to come down right now
Pull over, I want to get out right now
Pretend that you're alone now and everything's gone
Just animal reflexes no one looking on
Forget about religion, forget about shame
Pretend that you're alone now
No numbers in your phone now there's nothing going on
Just primal desire, no right and no wrong
Forget about fashion, forget about fame
Pretend that you're alone now
Black Burning Heart
|
I wish that I could be
In the cellars of the sea
And disappear in them
Never to be seen again
Leave this life
Its unrelenting appetite
For feeding off the weak
Who never had their turn to speak
The sky will be my shroud
A monument of cloud
If we could turn back
You can paper over the crack
But it will return now
And your heart will burn black
Give me your hand
Cut the skin, let me in
The molecules of us
Bleeding into one again
The sky will be my shroud
A cenotaph of cloud
If we could turn back
You can paper over the crack
But it will return now
And your heart will burn black
Forgotten my way home
Forgotten everything that I know
Every day a false start
And it burns my heart
I know everything you said was right and I suppose
Everything is here forever till it goes
You gave it all away, kept nothing for yourself
Just a picture on the shelf
Je souhaiterai m’immerger dans les profondeurs des mers
Y disparaître pour ne plus jamais être vu
Burning up
Now I’m racing down a road I don’t recognise
I realise I’ve forgotten my way home
Forgotten everything that I know
Every day a false start
And it burns my heart
Turn back
Love Is The End
|
Now is the time of our comfort and plenty
These are the days we've been working for
Nothing can touch us and nothing can harm us
No, nothing goes wrong anymore
Singing a song with your feet on the dashboard
The cigarette streaming into the night
These are the things that I want to remember
I want to remember you by
They won't come again
Cos love is the end
Oh no, my friend
Love is the end
I took off my clothes and I ran to the ocean
Looking for somewhere to start a-new
And when I was drowning in that holy water
All I could think of was you
Woah, my friend
Love is the end
So best not pretend
Cos love is the end
Take it back, don't let it die
Or rage against the fallen night
Cos I still do, depend on you
So don't say those words, that wrung me through
Woah, oh oh
Love is the end
So lets not pretend
Cos love is the end
So I tread the only road
The only road I know
Nowhere to go, but home
Nowhere to go
Maybe our time is up
But still you can't abandon
All the principles of love
Don't say those words
Don't say those words
Don't say those words
Don't say those words
My Shadow
|
 |
It's time to make a start
To get to know your heart
Time to show your face
Time to take your place
In every speck of dust
In every universe
When you feel most alone
You will not be alone
Just shine a light on me
Shine a light
I'll shine a light on you
Shine a light
And you will see my shadow
On every wall
And you will see my footprints
On every floor
It only takes a spark
To tear the world apart
These tiny little things
That make it all begin
Just shine a light on me
Shine a light
I'll shine a light on you
Shine a light
And you will see my shadow
On every wall
And you will see my reflection
In your freefall
Oooooh
Ooh ooh
Oooooh
Ooooh ooh
Just shine a light on me
Shine a light
I'll shine a light on you
Shine a light
Cos when your back's against the wall
That's when you show no fear at all
And when you're running out of time
That's when you hitch your star to mine
We won't be leaving by the same road that we came by
We won't be leaving by the same road that we came by
We won't be leaving by the same road that we came by
We won't be leaving by the same road that we came by
Oooh ooh
Oooh ooh
Oooh ooh
Oooh ooh
Time To Go
 |
Now, picturing a scene, seen it all before
We drink, we drink a little much, drink a little more
To shake off the nerves
And take off the edge
And now is there any way back home?
Seen it all before, and I know the signs
We drink, drink a little much, to stimulate the mind
Now it's two hours to go
And told everyone that you know
Now it's such a long way home
Maybe it's time to go
Maybe it's time we went
You're making a spectacle
Maybe it's time we left
I don't want to spoil your night
I don't want to hurt your pride
But maybe it's time to go
Maybe it's time
Now, eating from your hand, laugh at every line
Soon, losing track of you, you're losing track of time
Now it's dead on the dancefloor
And nobody's laughing any more
Have I become a tiresome bore?
Maybe it's time to go
Maybe it's time we went
You're making a spectacle
Maybe it's time we left
I don't want to spoil your night
I don't want to hurt your pride
But maybe it's time to go
Maybe it's time
To go, where there's nowhere to hide
From what's broken inside
A faultline ripped wide open
Under the wide, wide ocean's tide
Under the wide, wide ocean
Maybe it's time to go
Maybe it's time we went
You're making a spectacle
Maybe it's time we left
I don't want to spoil your night
I don't want to hurt your pride
Maybe it's time to fly
Maybe it's time
Maybe it's time to go
Maybe it's time
Staring At The Ceiling
|
Things will seem much better in the morning light
Love will be much easier to own
Things will look much better in the pale sunlight
We can be together like before
You just need time to forget
You just need time to explain
You just need time to forget yourself again
You're lying on the floor and
Staring at the ceiling
Thinking of a place you
Have never seen before
Remember when you held someone for the first time?
Remember when this fire was all we had?
Now you want life without death
And you want love without pain
But you want time to go back and start again
You're lying on the floor and
Staring at the ceiling
Thinking of a place you
Have never seen before
Thinking of your old friends
And waiting for the feeling
Waiting for the old burning feeling to return
These days, you don't know who you are
These days, you don't know where you are
These days, we don't know who we are
So meet me by the road
Where we used to go
You're lying on the floor and
Staring at the ceiling
Thinking of a place you
Have never seen before, seen before
Waiting for the phone call
And waiting for the feeling
Waiting for the old raging feeling to return
House Lights

Back In Time
|
I’ve got time to kill
I’m not living for the moment anymore
I don’t want to wake up
I’ve got time to kill
I’m not living for the future anymore
I don’t want to wake, I don’t want to wake up
She goes back in time
She goes back in time
She goes back in time
Time I wait for you
Hibernating hoping life will start again
Pedaling the water
The days all seem the same
I dream by day, I shut the light out I escape
I don’t want to wake, I don’t want to wake up
She goes back in time
She goes back in time
She goes back in time…
Slumping backwards I forget, I forget
Time has wrapped his drowsy arms around my neck
Don’t want to wake up, don’t want to wake up
She goes back in time
She goes back in time
She goes back in time…
Back again
Back again…
Stop For A Minute
|
Feel I’m floating high above me
Like I’m looking down upon me
Start sinking every time I get to thinking
It’s easier to keep on moving
Never stop to let the truth in
Sometimes I feel like it’s all been done
Sometimes I feel like I’m the only one
Sometimes I want to change everything I’ve ever done
I’m too tired to fight and yet to scared to run
And if I stop for a minute
I think about things I really don’t want to know
And I’m the first to admit it
Without you I’m a liner stranded in a ice floe
I feel like a thief who has no face
Made immortal by the grade
Of the drugs he took that day
Sinking in the pain he’s been inflicting
Yet he’s feeling like the victim
Just the horoscope’s to blame
Sometimes I feel like a little lost child
Sometimes I feel like the chosen one
Sometimes I want to shout out till everything goes quiet
Sometimes I wonder why I was ever born
And if I stop for a minute
I think about things I really don’t want to know
And I’m the first to admit it
Without you I’m a child and so
Wherever you go, I will follow
And baby you are just beautiful
From crown to your cuticles
You held down my two sons
You never frown when duty calls
You know me
I gave you more than you can handle
But you still keep a handle on it
Even when I take something beautiful
And vandal on it
No more females? Well how come my emails
Got notes on a scandal?
It’s like even with the apple
A priest in the chapel
Overcome by the devil’s tackle
I’m still shackled in the battle
I know I’m such a hassle
Every time I let my thoughts go I get baffled
Still I hardly pause
I just cross seas with these gnarly broads
Because it hurts me
Just to see what I finally lost
So I guess I’m just a fiend
Consumed by the scene
The stage and the screams
Where it’s just me and Keane
And if I stop for a minute
I think about things I really don’t want to know
And I’m the first to admit it
Without you I’m a liner stranded in a ice floe
(The stage and the screams where it’s just me and Keane)
Clear Skies
|
High on the bell tower I took my view
Over the downtowns and the avenues
Where the streets are wide and the people thrive
And it’s further to fall down because you fly so high
I’ve never seen such beauty
I’ve never seen such clear skies
I’ve never seen such high hopes
I’ve never seen such tired eyes
And I wish that I could be
Everything you are
Everything you are
Down in the delta the city wakes
Turns on the TV as the levee breaks
Where the streets are burned by the summer sun
And there’s nowhere to run to when your time has come
I’ve never seen such beauty
I’ve never seen such clear skies
I’ve never seen such high hopes
I’ve never seen such tired eyes
Pull the roots up piece by piece
Felt life washing over me
I took my pills and I went to sleep
Oh, I sang myself to sleep
And I wish that I could be
Everything you are
Everything you are
And I wish that I could see
The world the way you do
As selfishly as you
And I wish that I could be
Everything you are
Everything you are
And I wish that I could state
My faith the way you do
As certainly as you
Clear skies gonna fall on you…

Your Love
|
I didn't want to go
Go back and look for you
But it's a heartless drug
I'm addicted to
And when I drive that road
And start to feel that chill
I think I see your face
Do you come here still?
Those were the times
And these were the places
Your love was so good
And now that I'm here
I suddenly find that
I'm tumbling backwards
I'm back to where I was before
Dreaming of glory and your love
And now I'm lying on your floor
Crashed on the surface of your love
The chemicals react
And molecules collide
The poison works its way
Somewhere down inside
When we were young
I really believed
Love would never leave us
But time has a knack of
Pulling the rug out
From underneath us
And nothing matters anymore
I'm still a victim of your love
And now I'm banging on your door
Tumbling backwards with your love
Over and over in your love
I know they're only ghosts
And memories that I'm clutching at
Maybe I'm reaching back
For something I never had
Still it seems so real to me
These ragged threads
That lead me back to you
I'm back to where I was before
Tumbling backwards at your love
And now I'm lying on your floor
Crashed on the surface of your love
and the other dreams we had
Fractioned and frozen with your love
You put a spell upon me there
Never be broken in your love
Nowhere to run to but your love
Over and over in your love
Looking Back
|
You're living in a place you left behind
Going round in circles all the time
Can't see your way ahead
It's like you're blind
So open your eyes in time
Realign just what you've got
With what you nearly had and what you want
You fall asleep and then the moment's gone
So open your eyes in time
Yeah, it's hard to undo time
Hard to separate my past from my rhyme
Because how could you separate milk from lime
Waste my time
Looking back
You always seem to be looking back
Feels like your mind's always somewhere else
You're always looking over your shoulder
Think of all the places you can never be
The beauty in the faces that you'll never see
As you lie there sleeping
How the moment flies
So open your eyes and in time
The say life makes sense backwards
Only you got to live it forward
Don't waste your time
No, don't waste your time
Just looking back
You always seem to be looking back
Feels like your mind's always somewhere else
You're always looking over your shoulder
Am I the only one trying to fight off an army
Of memories dressed up all trying to harm me
I feel cocky running up the steps like rocky
Until the past come flashing like paparazzi
Nothing is new so I open my folder
My favourite view is over my shoulder
Everything backwards is my plight
It’s landing first when in my flight
Even my tears run up my cheeks
Back in the eye
Live I die
I waste my time
Just looking back
You always seem to be looking back
Feels like your mind's always somewhere else
You're always looking over your shoulder
Yeah, you always seem to be looking back
Feels like your mind's always somewhere else
You're always looking over your shoulder
You're always looking back
Over and over and over
The Night Sky
 |
One day I will be
Back in our old street
Safe from the noise that's
Falling around me
And we'll release this town from the people
Who are trying to knock it down
And then only city lights will brighten the night sky
And there will be no sound
Open the bars and
Open the markets
Open the banks and
Open the churches
And we'll release this town from the people
Who are trying to knock it down
And then only city lights will brighten the night sky
And there will be no sound
We've been cowering so long
Oh what I would give
I ask so little
Oh what I would give
To stand at the bus stop
Or browse in a bookshop
To sleep and always be still
And we'll release this town from the people
Who are trying to knock it down
And then only city lights will brighten the night sky
And i will be set free from the people
Who are trying to bury me
And then only fireworks will light the sky at night
For all the world can see
Under Pressure
|
Mm ba ba de
Um bum ba de
Um bu bu bum da de
Pressure pushing down on me
Pressing down on you no man ask for
Under pressure - that burns a building down
Splits a family in two
Puts people on streets
Um ba ba be
Um ba ba be
De day da
Ee day da - that's o.k.
It's the terror of knowing
What this world is about
Watching some good friends
Screaming 'Let me out'
Pray tomorrow - gets me higher
Pressure on people - people on streets
Day day de mm hm
Da da da ba ba
O.k.
Chippin' around - kick my brains around the floor
These are the days it never rains but it pours
Ee do ba be
Ee da ba ba ba
Um bo bo
Be lap
People on streets - ee da de da de
People on streets - ee da de da de da de da
It's the terror of knowing
What this world is about
Watching some good friends
Screaming 'Let me out'
Pray tomorrow - gets me higher high high
Pressure on people - people on streets
Turned away from it all like a blind man
Sat on a fence but it don't work
Keep coming up with love
but it's so slashed and torn
Why - why - why ?
Love love love love love
Insanity laughs under pressure we're cracking
Can't we give ourselves one more chance
Why can't we give love that one more chance
Why can't we give love give love give love give love
give love give love give love give love give love
'Cause love's such an old fashioned word
And love dares you to care for
The people on the edge of the night
And loves dares you to change our way of
Caring about ourselves
This is our last dance
This is ourselves
Under pressure
Under pressure
Pressure
Call Me What You Like
|
There's no believing and no reason why
Well I'm superstitious and I can fly
There's nothing to see
And nothing to hide
I'm scared and surrounded
I only need a while
I float through the ceiling
And into the sky
Call me what you like
I just wanna be there with you all the time
Do you wanna be here with me?
All the time
There's no believing and no real surprise
Well I am a ghost here, appearing in the night
To float through the ceiling
And into your eyes
Call me what you like
I just wanna be there with you all the time
Do you wanna be here with me?
All the time
Woah
I float through the ceiling
And into your eyes
Call me what you like
I just wanna be there with you all the time
Do you wanna be here with me?
Shup da, la la da be da...
Rubbernecking
|
I come to
There will be no more drowning
Help, colourless and cowering
You should understand me
When you're understanding
And through all the tears
Should you be alone
Right back, I hope he will pull through
Stand back, first aid is useful
You should understand me
How was I so stupid?
And through all the tears
Should you be alone
After all the tears
Should you be alone
Yes, there's going to be a drowning
Yes, there's going to be a drowning
Half wasted
Face painted
Hold my hand
There will be no more
Please move along
There will be no more
Please move along, oh
Closer Now
|
I believe
You might stumble and come closer
I like to wake alone
To lie and turn to stone
Comfort me, come to me
I won't go on
I like to walk along
To keep my head screwed on
Well I'm the best, so well done me
I won't go on
Believing, believing
I believe
You might stumble and come closer now
If I stay then I'm alone
If I go then it will mean
Waiting on my own
It's the pattern of my life
When you care and you cannot feel
And you know that it's for real
You just leave me on my own
To live the pattern of my life
I believe
You might stumble and come closer now
Make time to be
All this and more for me
Well you're the best so well done you
I won't go on
Believing, believing
I believe
You might turn from your love, wait around
If I go then I'm alone
If I stay then it will mean
Waiting on my own
It's the pattern of my life
When you care and you cannot feel
When you know that it's for real
So you leave me on my own
To live the pattern of my life
I believe
You might turn from your love wait around
If I stay here I'm alone
If I go then it will mean
Waiting on my own
It's the pattern of my life
When you care and you cannot feel
When you know that it's for real
You just leave me on my own
To live the pattern of my life
If I stay then I'm alone
If I go then it will mean
Waiting on my own
It's the pattern of my life
When you care and you cannot feel
And you know that it's for real
So you leave me on my own
To live the pattern of my life
Woah...
I believe
You might stumble and come closer now
Wolf At The Door
 |
Wake me
Shake me from my sleepiness
Wide-eyed
Every tale is taller than the one before
Inside out and upside down
And don't make a sound
The wolf's at the door
And all your street-fighting years won't help you anymore
Lead me
Guide me home old scatterbrain
Broader
Every smile is wider than the one before
Inside out and upside down
And don't make a sound
The wolf's at the door
And all your street-fighting years won't help you anymore
Inside out and upside down
And don't make a sound
So I live and feel
Oh no, oh
Don't make a sound
The wolf's at the door
And all your street-fighting years won't help you anymore
Call Me What You Like

There's no believing and no reason why
Well I'm superstitious and I can fly
I float through the ceiling
And into your eyes Call me what you like
I just wanna be there with you all the time
Do you wanna be here with me?
All the time
There's no believing and no real surprise
Well I am a ghost here, appearing in the night
To float through the ceiling
And into your eyes
Call me what you like
I just wanna be there with you all the time
Do you wanna be here with me?
All the time
I float through the ceiling
And into your eyes
Call me what you like
I just wanna be there with you all the time
Do you wanna be here with me?
Shup da, la la da be da...
The Way You Want It
|
From the shelter of your home
As you walk into the rain
Send a message that you know she'll hear
Though she's far away
Even though you have been wrong before
She'll hear you now
You know she will
But you don't know how
From the shelter of the rain
As you walk into the Tube
As you think of how you wonder if
She thinks about you too
Even though you've waited so long
To see the day
When she will turn
To you again
So long my friend
Is what you'll say
And I don't know
Why you feel so bad
Where is the life you once had?
And still this horrid feeling grows and grows
The way you want it to
Even though you've waited so long
To see the day
When she will turn
To you again
'So long my friend'
Is what you'll say
And I don't know
Why you feel so bad
Where is the life you once had?
And still this horrid feeling grows and grows
The way you want it to
You're a fool though
Why you feel so bad
Where is the life you once had?
And stilll this hollow feeling grows and grows
The way you want it to
A Heart To Hold You
Tocada en directo durante un programa de Jo WhileyWhen you're lonely and sad
If you think of the times we had
Just the thought
Will bring you back to me
Seen you staring into space
Shadows falling across your face
But it won't take long to get to you
Whatever you do
And if your heart should melt away
No matter, I'll find you anyway
Until you look and find a love who doubles
As someone who'll understand your troubles
When you're tumbling down
Cast an eye back to our old town
And a heart to hold you won't be far
Wherever you are
And if your heart should melt away
No matter, I'll find you anyway
Until you look and find a love who doubles
As someone who'll understand your troubles
When you're lonely and sad
When you're lonely and sad
