She took the best days of her life
She put the story in her mind
She found a place to hide all locked in herself
When she's there she's far away and no one can tell
What is written in her eyes
In her world she feels alive
With all the things that make her thrive
She found a way to capture all of her fears
When she's down she's far away then one comes near
You took the best days of her life
You broke her will and stole her pride
With all the hurt you left her burning of guilt
You became a part of her and no one can see
What is hidden in her eyes
She was never in control
All this time she's trying to pretend
But when the lights went on again
She was trying to hide
Everything inside
No one ever knew just how she died
She took the best days of her life (staring at the sun)
She left the best part in her eyes (staring at the sun)
She took the best days of her life (staring at the sun)
She left the best part in her eyes (staring at the sun)
She took the best days of her life (staring at the sun)
How does it feel to have love to have lost
And i know how to feel anymore
And how many times do you have to be cruel to be kind
And show feelings the door
Well isn't it strange how much you can change
in a year or minute or more
How can it go from so good to so bad
and my soul is now squished on the floor
How does it feel
How does it feel
How does it feel on your own
when you can't even deal with yourself
How can i move the ground is so loose
And the sun wants to peel off my skin
And how can i laugh when my mouth is held back
And i'm struggling now just to grin
I hold myself up till i run out of luck
While the world carries on in a spin
And now it's so real and it's paying off well
cos my feelings are letting me in
How does it feel
How does it feel
How does it feel on your own
when you can't even deal with yourself
I've been asking the same old questions
time and time again
I find that i don't want to live this life
but i know that i'll have to pretend
Cos everyone's hiding from the truth
and they're just lying to themselves
How do you expect me to deal
with this when i can't even deal with myself
How does it feel
How does it feel
How does it feel on your own
when you can't even deal with yourself
I've been asking the same old questions time and time again
I find that i don't want to live this life
but i know that i'll have to pretend
Cos everyone's hiding from the truth
and they're just lying to themselves
How do you expect me to deal
with this when i can't even deal with myself
you know the way that things go
when what you fight for starts to fall
and in that fuzzy picture
he writing stands out on the wall
so clearly on the wall
send out the signals deep and loud
and in this place, can you reassure me
with a touch, a smile – while the cradle’s burning
all the while the world is turning to noise
oh the more that it’s surrounding us
the more that it destroys
turn up the signal
wipe out the noise
send out the signals deep and loud
man i’m losing sound and sight
of all those who can tell me wrong from right
when all things beautiful and bright
sink in the night
yet there’s still something in my heart
that can find a way
to make a start
to turn up the signal
wipe out the noise
wipe out the noise
wipe out the noise
you know that’s it
you know that’s it
receive and transmit
receive and transmit
receive and transmit
you know that’s it
you know that’s it
receive and transmit
you know that’s it
you know that’s it
receive and transmit
Hey man, please don't make a sound
Take a look around, can't you see what's right in front of you
Have a little taste, no more time to waste
You don't wanna get left behind cause it's all coming down right now
How hard is it to see
Put your faith in me
'Cause you wouldn't want to be nailed
To the wrong piece of wood
You should get where you belong
Everything you know is wrong
Come on, sing along, everybody now
God given
And they gave us sight
And you'll see the light
And it burned so bright
Now you know we're right
And the work we've done
We've just begun
We're the chosen ones
Hey, step into the light
How can this be right?
I'm in front of you
Now ask me to
This you cannot win
With the color of your skin
You won't be getting into the Promised Land
It's just another case
Still don't know your place
Step aside, look away, wipe that look of your face
Defiance
Raining from the sky
Come on, sing along, everybody now
God given
And they gave us sight
And you'll see the light
And it burned so bright
Now you know we're right
And the work we've done
We've just begun
We're the chosen ones
Satellite in my eyes
Like a diamond in the sky
How I wonder
Satellite strung from the moon
And the world your balloon
Peeping tom for the mother station
Winter's cold, spring erases
And the calm away by the storm is chasing
Everything good needs replacing
Look up, look down, all around
Hey satellite
Satellite, headlines read
Someone's secrets you've seen
Eyes and ears have been
Satellite dish in my yard
Tell me more, tell me more
Who's the king of your satellite castle?
Winter's cold, spring erases
And the calm away by the storm is chasing
Everything good needs replacing
Look up, look down, all around
Hey satellite
Rest high above the clouds no resrictions
Television we bounce 'round the world
And while I spend these hours
Five senses reeling
I laugh about the weatherman's satellite eyes
Satellite in my eyes
Like a diamond in the sky
How I wonder
Satellite strung from the moon
And the world your balloon
Peeping tom for the mother station
Winter's cold, spring erases
And the calm away by the storm is chasing
Everything good needs replacing
Look up, look down, all around
Hey satellite
Rest high above the clouds no restrictions
Television you bounce from the world
And while I spend these hours
Five senses reeling
I laugh about this world in my satellite eyes.
Thank you for being such a friend to me
Oh I pray a friend for life,
And have I ever told you how much you mean to me?
Oh you're everything to me
Thinking all the time how to tell you what I feel,
Contemplating phrases....I'm gazing at eternity,
I am floating in serenity...
And I am so lost for words
And I am so overwhelmed
Please don't leave just yet
Can you stay a moment please
We can dance together
We can dance forever
Under your stars tonight
We'll live and breathe this dream
So close your eyes, but don't dream too deep
And please pass me some memories
And when I fall you're underneath
1000 broken hearts, carried by 1000 broken wings
If I could be anything in the world I would be your teardrop...I would be born in your eyes, live on your cheeks, and die on your lips.
The sky was blonde like her
It was a day to take the child
Out back and shoot it
I should have buried all my dead
Up in her cemetery head
She had dirty word witchcraft
I was in the deep end of her skin
Then, it seemed like a one car wreck
But I knew it was a horrid tragedy
Ways to make the tiny satisfaction disappear
Blow out the candles
On all my frankensteins
At least my death wish will come true
You will taste like Valentine’s
We cry
You’re like a birthday
I should have picked the photograph
It lasted longer than you
Putting holes in happiness
We’ll paint the future black
If it needs any color
My death sentence is a story
Who’ll be digging when you finally let me die?
The romance of your assassination
If you’re Bonnie, I’ll be your Clyde
But the grass is greener here
And I can see all of your snakes
You wear your ruins well
Please run away with me to hell
Blow out the candles
On all my frankensteins
At least my death wish will come true
You will taste like Valentine’s
We cry
You’re like a birthday
I should have picked the photograph
It lasted longer than you
Pearl Jam - London Astoria 20/4/06....One hell of a night
Wise men say only fools rush in
But I cant help falling in love with you
Shall I stay
Would it be a sin
If I cant help falling in love with you
Like a river flows surely to the sea
Darling so it goes
Some things are meant to be
Take my hand, take my whole life too
For I cant help falling in love with you
Like a river flows surely to the sea
Darling so it goes
Some things are meant to be
Take my hand, take my whole life too
For I cant help falling in love with you
For I cant help falling in love with you
Thank you for being such a friend to me
Oh I pray a friend for life,
And have I ever told you how much you mean to me?
Oh you're everything to me
Thinking all the time how to tell you what I feel,
Contemplating phrases....I'm gazing at eternity,
I am floating in serenity...
And I am so lost for words
And I am so overwhelmed
Please don't leave just yet
Can you stay a moment please
We can dance together
We can dance forever
Under your stars tonight
We'll live and breathe this dream
So close your eyes, but don't dream too deep
And please pass me some memories
And when I fall you're underneath
1000 broken hearts, carried by 1000 broken wings
It's undeniable how brilliant you are
In an unreliable world, you shine like a star
It's unforgettable now that we've come this far
It's unmistakable that you're undeniable
February 5th
Friday morning, purple dawn
Broke a yawn
As I stepped through the fog like I stepped to a song
A moment like a poem, you wish you could hold it
I shut my eyes like it's frozen, it's gone when I open
It slipped past the clouds right there where it lingered
Like your band and a girl could slip through your fingers
My feet hit the ground like a beat for the lonely
On a path beaten down by the crowds in the morning
If only I could touch past the phony
If only they were there now to hold me
As the questions keep droning
You're the only one who stuck it out last night
The only other one who caught the other line
You're the only one when this world collides
The one that I can't deny
It's undeniable how brilliant you are
In an unreliable world, you shine like a star
It's unforgettable now that we've come this far
It's unmistakable that you're undeniable
It's my last year here
My first class moved to portable 'A'
Under construction since summer
And it's cold today
I can see my breath, and what's left of the west parking lot
And all the spaces that we fought
And it all seems forgotten, left in the bottom
In past piles of rubble, in puddles of rain water
That hurt last night when I left like that
Well, I won't come back
Speaking my peace to the past
I can't help but wonder...who is this wind at my back?
A whisper to walk on, come on from all of that
You're the only one who stuck it out last night
The only other one who caught the other line
You're the only one when this world collides
The one that I can't deny
It's undeniable how brilliant you are
In an unreliable world, you shine like a star
It's unforgettable now that we've come this far
It's unmistakable that you're undeniable
How am I gonna take it away in this winter wind?
You found me on a summer breeze
How am I gonna run away when the autumn breaks?
Now that you found me in the spring
It's undeniable how brilliant you are
In an unreliable world, you shine like a star
It's unforgettable now that we've come this far
It's unmistakable that you're undeniable.
**Just heard this for the first the time today, sang by EV**
i'm falling harder than i've
ever fell before
i'm fallin faster, hoping
i'll land in your arms
cause all my time is spent here
longing to belong
to you
i dream of circles perfect
eyes within your face
my heart's an open wound that
only you replace
and though the moon is rising
can't put your picture down
love, it's a frightning way to fall
and when the time is right, i
hope that you'll respond
like when the wind gets tired
and the ocean becomes calm
i may be dreaming but i'm
longing to belong
to you
If I could be anything in the world I would be your teardrop...I would be born in your eyes, live on your cheeks, and die on your lips.
my lips are shakin' my nails are bit off
been a month since i've heard myself talk
all the advantage this life's got on me
picture a cup in the middle of the sea
and i fight back in my mind
never lets me be right
i got memories i got shit
so much it don't show
oh i walked the line when you held me in that night
i walked the line when you held my hand that night
an empty shells seem so easy to crack
got all these questions don't know who i could even ask
so i'll just lie alone and wait for the dream
where i'm not ugly and your lookin' at me
and i stare you back
oh blue eyes, i've seen it
if just once i could feel love
oh stare back at me, yeah..
but i walked the line when you held me in that night
oh i walked the line when you held my hand that night
oh i walked the line when you held me close that night
i paid the price never held you in real life
my lips are shakin'
This is the greatest band in the world -- Ben Harper
If the sun refused to shine, I would still be loving you.
When mountains crumble to the sea, there will still be you and me.
Kind woman, I give you my all, Kind woman, nothing more.
Little drops of rain whisper of the pain, tears of loves lost in the days gone by.
My love is strong, with you there is no wrong,
together we shall go until we die. My, my, my.
An inspiration is what you are to me, inspiration, look... see.
And so today, my world it smiles, your hand in mine, we walk the miles,
Thanks to you it will be done, for you to me are the only one.
Happiness, no more be sad, happiness....I'm glad.
If the sun refused to shine, I would still be loving you.
When mountains crumble to the sea, there will still be you and me.
Um boom ba bay
Um boom ba bay
Um Um boom ba bay bay
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 bay
Um ba ba bay
Dee day duh
Ee day duh
thats ok
It's the terror of knowing
What this world is about
Watching some good friends
Screaming get me out!
Tomorrow takes me higher
Pressure on people
People on streets
Day day day
da da dup bup bup
Okay
Chippin' around
kick my brains round the floor
These are the days
It never rains but it pours
Ee do bay bup
Ee do bay ba bup
Ee do bup
Bay bup
People on streets
Dee da dee da day
People on streets
Dee da dee da dee da dee da
It's the terror of knowing
What this world is about
Watching some good friends
Screaming let me out!
Tomorrow takes me high high higher
Pressure on people
People on streets
Turned away from it all
Like the 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)
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 love dares you to change our way
Of caring about ourselves
This is our last dance
this is our last dance
this is ourselves
This is ourselves
Under Pressure
Under Pressure
Pressure
On a morning from a Bogart movie
In a country where they turn back time
You go strolling through the crowd like Peter Lorre
Contemplating a crime
She comes out of the sun in a silk dress running
Like a watercolor in the rain
Don't bother asking for explanations
She'll just tell you that she came
In the year of the cat
She doesn't give you time for questions
As she locks up your arm in hers
And you follow 'till your sense of which direction
Completely disappears
By the blue tiled walls near the market stalls
There's a hidden door she leads you to
These days, she says, I feel my life
Just like a river running through
The year of the cat
Well, she looks at you so coolly
And her eyes shine like the moon in the sea
She comes in incense and patchouli
So you take her, to find what's waiting inside
The year of the cat
Well morning comes and you're still with her
And the bus and the tourists are gone
And you've thrown away your choice and lost your ticket
So you have to stay on
But the drumbeat strains of the night remain
In the rhythm of the new-born day
You know sometime you're bound to leave her
But for now you're going to stay
In the year of the cat
If the sun refused to shine, I would still be loving you.
When mountains crumble to the sea, there will still be you and me.
Kind woman, I give you my all, Kind woman, nothing more.
Little drops of rain whisper of the pain, tears of loves lost in the days gone by.
My love is strong, with you there is no wrong,
together we shall go until we die. My, my, my.
An inspiration is what you are to me, inspiration, look... see.
And so today, my world it smiles, your hand in mine, we walk the miles,
Thanks to you it will be done, for you to me are the only one.
Happiness, no more be sad, happiness....I'm glad.
If the sun refused to shine, I would still be loving you.
When mountains crumble to the sea, there will still be you and me.
Love that song baby Mwah Thanks...

it's not the same without you up here
can't find my wheels
your absence is what breeds this fear
warm breath and all it steals
you can't know how it feels to be in here
all the dark horse fields, befriendin' me
playin' ain't the same without you here
we've come to hate the golden rule
cannot seem to make the dots connect
the morning light don't show you near
you can't know what it's like to bleed from here
the blackened world goes white, it goes nowhere
oooh hoo..
death ain't the same without you, dear
i make the others run and hide
new york streets seem to make it worse
all this noise inside the quiet
i can't hold on, the weight you bear
my body's broken fast, please lift me up
you can't know what it's like to be inside
your fading melodies can't beat my need
i'm not the same without you here
how can i quit to be there
sit and stare
stare..
begging for a prayer
it's not the same without you up here
can't find my wheels
your absence is what breeds this fear
warm breath and all it steals
you can't know how it feels to be in here
all the dark horse fields, befriendin' me
playin' ain't the same without you here
we've come to hate the golden rule
cannot seem to make the dots connect
the morning light don't show you near
you can't know what it's like to bleed from here
the blackened world goes white, it goes nowhere
oooh hoo..

I close my eyes
and there in the shadows I see your light
You come to me out of my dreams across
the night
You take my hand
though you may be so many stars away
I know that our spirits and souls are one
We've circled the moon and we've touched the sun
So here we'll stay
For always, forever
Beyond here and on to eternity
For always, forever
For us there's no time and no space
No barrier love won't erase
Wherever you go
I still know
In my heart you will be
With me
From this day on I'm certain that I'll never be alone
I know what my heart must have always known
That love has a power that's all its own
And for always, forever
Now we can fly
And for always and always
We will go on beyond goodbye
For always, forever
Beyond here and on to eternity
For always and ever
You'll be a part of me
And for always, forever
A thousand tomorrows may cross the sky
And for always and always
We will go on
beyond goodbye
This romeo is bleeding
But you can't see his blood
It's nothing but some feelings
That this old dog kicked up
It's been raining since you left me
Now I'm drowning in the flood
You see I've always been a fighter
But without you I give up
Now I can't sing a love song
Like the way it's meant to be
Well, I guess I'm not that good anymore
But baby, that's just me
And I will love you, baby - Always
And I'll be there forever and a day - Always
I'll be there till the stars don't shine
Till the heavens burst and
The words don't rhyme
And I know when I die, you'll be on my mind
And I'll love you - Always
Now your pictures that you left behind
Are just memories of a different life
Some that made us laugh, some that made us cry
One that made you have to say goodbye
What I'd give to run my fingers through your hair
To touch your lips, to hold you near
When you say your prayers try to understand
I've made mistakes, I'm just a man
When he holds you close, when he pulls you near
When he says the words you've been needing to hear
I'll wish I was him 'cause those words are mine
To say to you till the end of time
Yeah, I will love you baby - Always
And I'll be there forever and a day - Always
If you told me to cry for you
I could
If you told me to die for you
I would
Take a look at my face
There's no price I won't pay
To say these words to you
Well, there ain't no luck
In these loaded dice
But baby if you give me just one more try
We can pack up our old dreams
And our old lives
We'll find a place where the sun still shines
And I will love you, baby - Always
And I'll be there forever and a day - Always
I'll be there till the stars don't shine
Till the heavens burst and
The words don't rhyme
And I know when I die, you'll be on my mind
And I'll love you - Always
I'm just flying around the other side of the world to say I love you

Theres a light, when my babys in my arms.
Theres a light, when the window shades are drawn.
Hesitate when I feel I may do harm to her.
Wash it off cause this feeling we can share.
And I know shes reached my heart in thin air.
Byzantine is reflected in our pond.
Theres a cloud, but the water remains calm.
Reaching in the suns fingers clutch the dawn to pass.
Even out, its a precious thing to bear.
And I know shes reached my heart in thin air.
Yes I know shes reached my heart in thin air.
Its not in my past to presume.
Love can keep on moving in both directions.
How to be happy and true is quest were taking on together.
Take it on, on, on, on, on.
Take it on, on, on, on, on.

I got you,
And thats all I want.
I wont forget,
Thats a whole lot.
I dont go out,
Not now that you're in
Sometimes we shout,
But thats no problem.
I dont know why sometimes I get frightened,
You can see my eyes, can tell that I'm not lying,
Look at you,
You're a paegent.
You're everything
That I've imagined.
Soemthing's wrong,
I feel uneasy,
You show me,
Tell me you're not teasing.
I dont know why sometimes I get frightened,
You can see my eyes, can tell that I'm not lying,
I dont know why sometimes I get frightened,
You can see my eyes, can you tell me you're not lying?
There's no doubt,
Not when im with you,
When I'm without,
I stay in my room,
Where do you go?
I get no answer,
You're always out.
It gets on my nerves.
I dont know why sometimes I get frightened,
You can see my eyes, can tell that I'm not lying,
I dont know why sometimes I get frightened,
You can see my eyes, can you tell me you're not lying?
I dont know why sometimes I get frightened,
You can see my eyes, can tell that I'm not lying,
I got you,
And thats all I want.
I wont forget,
Thats a whole lot.
I dont go out,
Not now that you're in
Sometimes we shout,
But thats no problem.
I dont know why sometimes I get frightened,
You can see my eyes, can tell that I'm not lying,
Look at you,
You're a paegent.
You're everything
That I've imagined.
Soemthing's wrong,
I feel uneasy,
You show me,
Tell me you're not teasing.
I dont know why sometimes I get frightened,
You can see my eyes, can tell that I'm not lying,
I dont know why sometimes I get frightened,
You can see my eyes, can you tell me you're not lying?
There's no doubt,
Not when im with you,
When I'm without,
I stay in my room,
Where do you go?
I get no answer,
You're always out.
It gets on my nerves.
I dont know why sometimes I get frightened,
You can see my eyes, can tell that I'm not lying,
I dont know why sometimes I get frightened,
You can see my eyes, can you tell me you're not lying?
I dont know why sometimes I get frightened,
You can see my eyes, can tell that I'm not lying,

She put the story in her mind
She found a place to hide all locked in herself
When she's there she's far away and no one can tell
What is written in her eyes
In her world she feels alive
With all the things that make her thrive
She found a way to capture all of her fears
When she's down she's far away then one comes near
You took the best days of her life
You broke her will and stole her pride
With all the hurt you left her burning of guilt
You became a part of her and no one can see
What is hidden in her eyes
She was never in control
All this time she's trying to pretend
But when the lights went on again
She was trying to hide
Everything inside
No one ever knew just how she died
She took the best days of her life (staring at the sun)
She left the best part in her eyes (staring at the sun)
She took the best days of her life (staring at the sun)
She left the best part in her eyes (staring at the sun)
She took the best days of her life (staring at the sun)
And i know how to feel anymore
And how many times do you have to be cruel to be kind
And show feelings the door
Well isn't it strange how much you can change
in a year or minute or more
How can it go from so good to so bad
and my soul is now squished on the floor
How does it feel
How does it feel
How does it feel on your own
when you can't even deal with yourself
How can i move the ground is so loose
And the sun wants to peel off my skin
And how can i laugh when my mouth is held back
And i'm struggling now just to grin
I hold myself up till i run out of luck
While the world carries on in a spin
And now it's so real and it's paying off well
cos my feelings are letting me in
How does it feel
How does it feel
How does it feel on your own
when you can't even deal with yourself
I've been asking the same old questions
time and time again
I find that i don't want to live this life
but i know that i'll have to pretend
Cos everyone's hiding from the truth
and they're just lying to themselves
How do you expect me to deal
with this when i can't even deal with myself
How does it feel
How does it feel
How does it feel on your own
when you can't even deal with yourself
I've been asking the same old questions time and time again
I find that i don't want to live this life
but i know that i'll have to pretend
Cos everyone's hiding from the truth
and they're just lying to themselves
How do you expect me to deal
with this when i can't even deal with myself
Peter Gabriel
you know the way that things go
when what you fight for starts to fall
and in that fuzzy picture
he writing stands out on the wall
so clearly on the wall
send out the signals deep and loud
and in this place, can you reassure me
with a touch, a smile – while the cradle’s burning
all the while the world is turning to noise
oh the more that it’s surrounding us
the more that it destroys
turn up the signal
wipe out the noise
send out the signals deep and loud
man i’m losing sound and sight
of all those who can tell me wrong from right
when all things beautiful and bright
sink in the night
yet there’s still something in my heart
that can find a way
to make a start
to turn up the signal
wipe out the noise
wipe out the noise
wipe out the noise
you know that’s it
you know that’s it
receive and transmit
receive and transmit
receive and transmit
you know that’s it
you know that’s it
receive and transmit
you know that’s it
you know that’s it
receive and transmit
Let's just breathe...
I am myself like you somehow
The time of day doesn't last.
Evening, has earned its place today,
I'm tired of working away.
Working, living it brings,
Only way to have those things.
Toiling has bought too many tears,
Turn 'round all those past years.
Evening time to get away.
Evening time to get away.
Evening time to get away.
'Til next day.
Live all you people, you can't see where you're at,
It doesn't really hurt you, so that can't be bad.
Live all you people, you can't see where you're at,
It doesn't really hurt you, so that can't be bad.
Evening time to get away.
Evening time to get away.
Take a look around, can't you see what's right in front of you
Have a little taste, no more time to waste
You don't wanna get left behind cause it's all coming down right now
How hard is it to see
Put your faith in me
'Cause you wouldn't want to be nailed
To the wrong piece of wood
You should get where you belong
Everything you know is wrong
Come on, sing along, everybody now
God given
And they gave us sight
And you'll see the light
And it burned so bright
Now you know we're right
And the work we've done
We've just begun
We're the chosen ones
Hey, step into the light
How can this be right?
I'm in front of you
Now ask me to
This you cannot win
With the color of your skin
You won't be getting into the Promised Land
It's just another case
Still don't know your place
Step aside, look away, wipe that look of your face
Defiance
Raining from the sky
Come on, sing along, everybody now
God given
And they gave us sight
And you'll see the light
And it burned so bright
Now you know we're right
And the work we've done
We've just begun
We're the chosen ones
Like a diamond in the sky
How I wonder
Satellite strung from the moon
And the world your balloon
Peeping tom for the mother station
Winter's cold, spring erases
And the calm away by the storm is chasing
Everything good needs replacing
Look up, look down, all around
Hey satellite
Satellite, headlines read
Someone's secrets you've seen
Eyes and ears have been
Satellite dish in my yard
Tell me more, tell me more
Who's the king of your satellite castle?
Winter's cold, spring erases
And the calm away by the storm is chasing
Everything good needs replacing
Look up, look down, all around
Hey satellite
Rest high above the clouds no resrictions
Television we bounce 'round the world
And while I spend these hours
Five senses reeling
I laugh about the weatherman's satellite eyes
Satellite in my eyes
Like a diamond in the sky
How I wonder
Satellite strung from the moon
And the world your balloon
Peeping tom for the mother station
Winter's cold, spring erases
And the calm away by the storm is chasing
Everything good needs replacing
Look up, look down, all around
Hey satellite
Rest high above the clouds no restrictions
Television you bounce from the world
And while I spend these hours
Five senses reeling
I laugh about this world in my satellite eyes.
Thank you for being such a friend to me
Oh I pray a friend for life,
And have I ever told you how much you mean to me?
Oh you're everything to me
Thinking all the time how to tell you what I feel,
Contemplating phrases....I'm gazing at eternity,
I am floating in serenity...
And I am so lost for words
And I am so overwhelmed
Please don't leave just yet
Can you stay a moment please
We can dance together
We can dance forever
Under your stars tonight
We'll live and breathe this dream
So close your eyes, but don't dream too deep
And please pass me some memories
And when I fall you're underneath
1000 broken hearts, carried by 1000 broken wings
The sky was blonde like her
It was a day to take the child
Out back and shoot it
I should have buried all my dead
Up in her cemetery head
She had dirty word witchcraft
I was in the deep end of her skin
Then, it seemed like a one car wreck
But I knew it was a horrid tragedy
Ways to make the tiny satisfaction disappear
Blow out the candles
On all my frankensteins
At least my death wish will come true
You will taste like Valentine’s
We cry
You’re like a birthday
I should have picked the photograph
It lasted longer than you
Putting holes in happiness
We’ll paint the future black
If it needs any color
My death sentence is a story
Who’ll be digging when you finally let me die?
The romance of your assassination
If you’re Bonnie, I’ll be your Clyde
But the grass is greener here
And I can see all of your snakes
You wear your ruins well
Please run away with me to hell
Blow out the candles
On all my frankensteins
At least my death wish will come true
You will taste like Valentine’s
We cry
You’re like a birthday
I should have picked the photograph
It lasted longer than you
Reading 2006 - WOOOOW!!!!!
Paris 2006 - Fucking amazing
Wembley 2007
But I cant help falling in love with you
Shall I stay
Would it be a sin
If I cant help falling in love with you
Like a river flows surely to the sea
Darling so it goes
Some things are meant to be
Take my hand, take my whole life too
For I cant help falling in love with you
Like a river flows surely to the sea
Darling so it goes
Some things are meant to be
Take my hand, take my whole life too
For I cant help falling in love with you
For I cant help falling in love with you
awww
In an unreliable world, you shine like a star
It's unforgettable now that we've come this far
It's unmistakable that you're undeniable
February 5th
Friday morning, purple dawn
Broke a yawn
As I stepped through the fog like I stepped to a song
A moment like a poem, you wish you could hold it
I shut my eyes like it's frozen, it's gone when I open
It slipped past the clouds right there where it lingered
Like your band and a girl could slip through your fingers
My feet hit the ground like a beat for the lonely
On a path beaten down by the crowds in the morning
If only I could touch past the phony
If only they were there now to hold me
As the questions keep droning
You're the only one who stuck it out last night
The only other one who caught the other line
You're the only one when this world collides
The one that I can't deny
It's undeniable how brilliant you are
In an unreliable world, you shine like a star
It's unforgettable now that we've come this far
It's unmistakable that you're undeniable
It's my last year here
My first class moved to portable 'A'
Under construction since summer
And it's cold today
I can see my breath, and what's left of the west parking lot
And all the spaces that we fought
And it all seems forgotten, left in the bottom
In past piles of rubble, in puddles of rain water
That hurt last night when I left like that
Well, I won't come back
Speaking my peace to the past
I can't help but wonder...who is this wind at my back?
A whisper to walk on, come on from all of that
You're the only one who stuck it out last night
The only other one who caught the other line
You're the only one when this world collides
The one that I can't deny
It's undeniable how brilliant you are
In an unreliable world, you shine like a star
It's unforgettable now that we've come this far
It's unmistakable that you're undeniable
How am I gonna take it away in this winter wind?
You found me on a summer breeze
How am I gonna run away when the autumn breaks?
Now that you found me in the spring
It's undeniable how brilliant you are
In an unreliable world, you shine like a star
It's unforgettable now that we've come this far
It's unmistakable that you're undeniable.
i'm falling harder than i've
ever fell before
i'm fallin faster, hoping
i'll land in your arms
cause all my time is spent here
longing to belong
to you
i dream of circles perfect
eyes within your face
my heart's an open wound that
only you replace
and though the moon is rising
can't put your picture down
love, it's a frightning way to fall
and when the time is right, i
hope that you'll respond
like when the wind gets tired
and the ocean becomes calm
i may be dreaming but i'm
longing to belong
to you
"Despite all my rage, I am still just a rat in a cage"
been a month since i've heard myself talk
all the advantage this life's got on me
picture a cup in the middle of the sea
and i fight back in my mind
never lets me be right
i got memories i got shit
so much it don't show
oh i walked the line when you held me in that night
i walked the line when you held my hand that night
an empty shells seem so easy to crack
got all these questions don't know who i could even ask
so i'll just lie alone and wait for the dream
where i'm not ugly and your lookin' at me
and i stare you back
oh blue eyes, i've seen it
if just once i could feel love
oh stare back at me, yeah..
but i walked the line when you held me in that night
oh i walked the line when you held my hand that night
oh i walked the line when you held me close that night
i paid the price never held you in real life
my lips are shakin'
I wanna wind out
I wanna leave
This mind and shout
I've lived
All this life
Like an ocean
In disguise
I don't live for
Ever
You can't keep
Me here
I wanna race
With the sundown
I want a last breath
I don't let out
Forgive
Every being
The bad feelings
It's just me
I won't wait
For answers
You can't keep
Me here
I wanna rise
And say goodnight
Wanna take
A look on the other side
I've lived
All those lives
It's been wonder
Full at night
I will live for
Ever
You can't keep
Me here
When mountains crumble to the sea, there will still be you and me.
Kind woman, I give you my all, Kind woman, nothing more.
Little drops of rain whisper of the pain, tears of loves lost in the days gone by.
My love is strong, with you there is no wrong,
together we shall go until we die. My, my, my.
An inspiration is what you are to me, inspiration, look... see.
And so today, my world it smiles, your hand in mine, we walk the miles,
Thanks to you it will be done, for you to me are the only one.
Happiness, no more be sad, happiness....I'm glad.
If the sun refused to shine, I would still be loving you.
When mountains crumble to the sea, there will still be you and me.
Queen & David Bowie
Um boom ba bay
Um boom ba bay
Um Um boom ba bay bay
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 bay
Um ba ba bay
Dee day duh
Ee day duh
thats ok
It's the terror of knowing
What this world is about
Watching some good friends
Screaming get me out!
Tomorrow takes me higher
Pressure on people
People on streets
Day day day
da da dup bup bup
Okay
Chippin' around
kick my brains round the floor
These are the days
It never rains but it pours
Ee do bay bup
Ee do bay ba bup
Ee do bup
Bay bup
People on streets
Dee da dee da day
People on streets
Dee da dee da dee da dee da
It's the terror of knowing
What this world is about
Watching some good friends
Screaming let me out!
Tomorrow takes me high high higher
Pressure on people
People on streets
Turned away from it all
Like the 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)
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 love dares you to change our way
Of caring about ourselves
This is our last dance
this is our last dance
this is ourselves
This is ourselves
Under Pressure
Under Pressure
Pressure
Let's just breathe...
I am myself like you somehow
In a country where they turn back time
You go strolling through the crowd like Peter Lorre
Contemplating a crime
She comes out of the sun in a silk dress running
Like a watercolor in the rain
Don't bother asking for explanations
She'll just tell you that she came
In the year of the cat
She doesn't give you time for questions
As she locks up your arm in hers
And you follow 'till your sense of which direction
Completely disappears
By the blue tiled walls near the market stalls
There's a hidden door she leads you to
These days, she says, I feel my life
Just like a river running through
The year of the cat
Well, she looks at you so coolly
And her eyes shine like the moon in the sea
She comes in incense and patchouli
So you take her, to find what's waiting inside
The year of the cat
Well morning comes and you're still with her
And the bus and the tourists are gone
And you've thrown away your choice and lost your ticket
So you have to stay on
But the drumbeat strains of the night remain
In the rhythm of the new-born day
You know sometime you're bound to leave her
But for now you're going to stay
In the year of the cat
Love that song baby
Sha la la la i'm in love with a jersey girl
I love you forever and forever

can't find my wheels
your absence is what breeds this fear
warm breath and all it steals
you can't know how it feels to be in here
all the dark horse fields, befriendin' me
playin' ain't the same without you here
we've come to hate the golden rule
cannot seem to make the dots connect
the morning light don't show you near
you can't know what it's like to bleed from here
the blackened world goes white, it goes nowhere
oooh hoo..
death ain't the same without you, dear
i make the others run and hide
new york streets seem to make it worse
all this noise inside the quiet
i can't hold on, the weight you bear
my body's broken fast, please lift me up
you can't know what it's like to be inside
your fading melodies can't beat my need
i'm not the same without you here
how can i quit to be there
sit and stare
stare..
begging for a prayer
will be there in no time my love
Sha la la la i'm in love with a jersey girl
I love you forever and forever

and there in the shadows I see your light
You come to me out of my dreams across
the night
You take my hand
though you may be so many stars away
I know that our spirits and souls are one
We've circled the moon and we've touched the sun
So here we'll stay
For always, forever
Beyond here and on to eternity
For always, forever
For us there's no time and no space
No barrier love won't erase
Wherever you go
I still know
In my heart you will be
With me
From this day on I'm certain that I'll never be alone
I know what my heart must have always known
That love has a power that's all its own
And for always, forever
Now we can fly
And for always and always
We will go on beyond goodbye
For always, forever
Beyond here and on to eternity
For always and ever
You'll be a part of me
And for always, forever
A thousand tomorrows may cross the sky
And for always and always
We will go on
beyond goodbye
But you can't see his blood
It's nothing but some feelings
That this old dog kicked up
It's been raining since you left me
Now I'm drowning in the flood
You see I've always been a fighter
But without you I give up
Now I can't sing a love song
Like the way it's meant to be
Well, I guess I'm not that good anymore
But baby, that's just me
And I will love you, baby - Always
And I'll be there forever and a day - Always
I'll be there till the stars don't shine
Till the heavens burst and
The words don't rhyme
And I know when I die, you'll be on my mind
And I'll love you - Always
Now your pictures that you left behind
Are just memories of a different life
Some that made us laugh, some that made us cry
One that made you have to say goodbye
What I'd give to run my fingers through your hair
To touch your lips, to hold you near
When you say your prayers try to understand
I've made mistakes, I'm just a man
When he holds you close, when he pulls you near
When he says the words you've been needing to hear
I'll wish I was him 'cause those words are mine
To say to you till the end of time
Yeah, I will love you baby - Always
And I'll be there forever and a day - Always
If you told me to cry for you
I could
If you told me to die for you
I would
Take a look at my face
There's no price I won't pay
To say these words to you
Well, there ain't no luck
In these loaded dice
But baby if you give me just one more try
We can pack up our old dreams
And our old lives
We'll find a place where the sun still shines
And I will love you, baby - Always
And I'll be there forever and a day - Always
I'll be there till the stars don't shine
Till the heavens burst and
The words don't rhyme
And I know when I die, you'll be on my mind
And I'll love you - Always

Theres a light, when the window shades are drawn.
Hesitate when I feel I may do harm to her.
Wash it off cause this feeling we can share.
And I know shes reached my heart in thin air.
Byzantine is reflected in our pond.
Theres a cloud, but the water remains calm.
Reaching in the suns fingers clutch the dawn to pass.
Even out, its a precious thing to bear.
And I know shes reached my heart in thin air.
Yes I know shes reached my heart in thin air.
Its not in my past to presume.
Love can keep on moving in both directions.
How to be happy and true is quest were taking on together.
Take it on, on, on, on, on.
Take it on, on, on, on, on.
Theres a light when my babys in my arms.
And I know shes reached my heart in thin air.
And I know shes reached my heart in thin air.
And I know shes reached my heart in thin air.
Yes I know shes reached my heart.

And thats all I want.
I wont forget,
Thats a whole lot.
I dont go out,
Not now that you're in
Sometimes we shout,
But thats no problem.
I dont know why sometimes I get frightened,
You can see my eyes, can tell that I'm not lying,
Look at you,
You're a paegent.
You're everything
That I've imagined.
Soemthing's wrong,
I feel uneasy,
You show me,
Tell me you're not teasing.
I dont know why sometimes I get frightened,
You can see my eyes, can tell that I'm not lying,
I dont know why sometimes I get frightened,
You can see my eyes, can you tell me you're not lying?
There's no doubt,
Not when im with you,
When I'm without,
I stay in my room,
Where do you go?
I get no answer,
You're always out.
It gets on my nerves.
I dont know why sometimes I get frightened,
You can see my eyes, can tell that I'm not lying,
I dont know why sometimes I get frightened,
You can see my eyes, can you tell me you're not lying?
