    If you see me, please just walk on by, walk on by
    Forget my name and I'll forget it too
    Failed attempts at living simple lives, simple lives
    Always keep me coming back to you

    Take these shoes
    Click clacking down some dead end street
    Take these shoes
    And make them fit
    Take this shirt
    Polyester white trash made in nowhere
    Take this shirt
    And make it clean, clean
    Take this soul
    Stranded in some skin and bones
    Take this soul
    And make it sing
    &&&&&&&&&&&&&&

    Always pain before a child is born
    Yahweh, Yahweh
    Still I'm waiting for the dawn

    Take these hands
    Teach them what to carry
    Take these hands
    Don't make a fist
    Take this mouth
    So quick to criticise
    Take this mouth
    Give it a kiss

    Yahweh, Yahweh
    Always pain before a child is born
    Yahewh, Yahweh
    Still I'm waiting for the dawn

    Still waiting for the dawn, the sun is coming up
    The sun is coming up on the ocean
    This love is like a drop in the ocean
    This love is like a drop in the ocean

    Yahweh, Yahweh
    Always pain before a child is born
    Yahweh, tell me now
    Why the dark before the dawn?

    Take this city
    A city should be shining on a hill
    Take this city
    If it be your will
    What no man can own, no man can take
    Take this heart
    Take this heart
    Take this heart
    And make it break
  • It was their idea, i proved to be a man
    Will myself to find a home, a home within myself
    We will find a way, we will find our place
    Drop the leash, drop the leash
    Get outta' my fuckin' face

    Can you feel it now that spring has come
    And it's time to live in the scattered sun
    Waiting for the Sun
    Waiting for the Sun
    Waiting for the Sun
    Waiting.... Waiting.... Waiting.... Waiting....
    Waiting for you to - come along
    Waiting for you to - hear my song
    Waiting for you to - come along
    Waiting for you to - tell me what went wrong
    This is the strangest life I've ever known, yeah
    "Where's KW?"
    "Let's check Idaho."

    Chestnuts roasting on an open fire
    Jack Frost nipping at your nose
    Yuletide carols being sung by a choir
    And folks dressed up like Eskimos

    Everybody knows a turkey and some mistletoe
    Help to make the season bright
    Tiny tots with their eyes all aglow
    Will find it hard to sleep tonight

    They know that Santa's on his way
    He's loaded lots of toys and goodies on his sleigh
    And every mother's child is going to be spy
    To see reindeer really know how to fly

    And so, I'm offering this simple phrase
    To kids from one to ninety-two
    Although it's been said many times, many ways
    Merry Christmas to you

    And so, I'm offering this simple phrase
    To kids from one to ninety-two
    Although it's been said, many times, many ways
    Merry Christmas, Merry Christmas
    Merry Christmas to you ....

    Amazing Grace, how sweet the sound,
    That saved a wretch like me....
    I once was lost but now am found,
    Was blind, but now, I see.

    T'was Grace that taught...
    my heart to fear.
    And Grace, my fears relieved.
    How precious did that Grace appear...
    the hour I first believed.

    Through many dangers, toils and snares...
    we have already come.
    T'was Grace that brought us safe thus far...
    and Grace will lead us home.

    The Lord has promised good to me...
    His word my hope secures.
    He will my shield and portion be...
    as long as life endures.

    When we've been here ten thousand years...
    bright shining as the sun.
    We've no less days to sing God's praise...
    then when we've first begun.

    Amazing Grace, how sweet the sound,
    That saved a wretch like me....
    I once was lost but now am found,
    Was blind, but now, I see.

    Now bring us some figgy pudding,
    Now bring us some figgy pudding,
    Now bring us some figgy pudding,
    And bring some out here.





    For we all like figgy pudding,
    For we all like figgy pudding,
    For we all like figgy pudding,
    So bring some out here.

  • you ever hear the story of mr. faded glory?
    say he who rides a pony must someday fall
    i was talkin' to my alter
    says life is what you make it
    and if you make it death well rest your soul away
    away, away...
    it's a broken kind of feeling
    she'll have to tie me to the ceiling
    a bad moon's comin' better say your prayers
    i wanna tell you that i love you
    but does it really matter?
    i just can't stand to see you dragging down again
    again, again...
    so i'm singing
    and this is my kinda love
    it's the kind that moves on
    it's the kind that leaves you alone, yeah
    this is my kinda love
    it's the kind that moves on
    it's the kind that leaves me alone
    i used to treat you like a lady
    now you're my substitute teacher
    this bottle's not a pretty, not a pretty sight
    i owe the man some money so i'm turnin over honey
    ah mr. faded glory is once again doin' time, yeah
    this is my kinda love
    it's the kind that moves on
    it's the kind that leaves me alone, yeah

    Waterfall, nothing can harm me at all,
    my worries seem so very small
    with my waterfall.

    I can see my rainbow calling me
    through the misty breeze
    of my waterfall.

    Some people say day-dreaming's
    for the lazy minded fools
    with nothing else to do.

    So let them laugh, laugh at me,
    so just as long as I have you
    to see me through,
    I have nothing to lose 'long as I have you.

    Waterfall, don't ever choose your ways.
    Come with me for a million days,
    Oh, my waterfall.

    I've got a car
    Got some gas
    Let's get out of here ... out of here fast
    Everyone's confused
    So I stay in my room
    If I go ... I don't want to go ... alone.
    I hope you get this message
    Or you're not home
    I could be there in 10 minutes or so
    I got my things
    We'll make it up as we go along
    With you ... I could never be ... alone.

    woke up with these lyrics in my head...

    You've already won me over in spite of me
    Don't be alarmed if I fall head over feet
    Don't be surprised if I love you for all that you are
    I couldn't help it
    It's all your fault
    Show #13 was a lucky one for me....

    My thoughts are with you
    Holding hands with your heart to see you
    Only blue talk and love,
    Remember ... how we knew love was here to stay
    Now December ... found the love that we shared in September.
    Only blue talk and love,
    Remember ... the true love we share today

    Ba de ya ... say do you remember
    Ba de ya ... dancing in September
    Ba de ya ... never was a cloudy day
    Ba de ya ... say do you remember
    Ba de ya ... dancing in September
    Ba de ya ... golden dreams were shiny days
    "Where's KW?"
    "Let's check Idaho."

    ...somebody take me out of the night
    show me what life is made of
    oh wont somebody reach inside of my heart...
    hear my name
    take a good look
    this could be the day
    hold my hand
    lie beside me
    i just need to say
  • I know (I know) you belong
    To somebody new
    But tonight
    You belong to me

    Although (although) we're apart
    You are a part of my heart
    But tonight
    You belong to me

    Wait down by the stream
    How sweet it will seem
    Once more just to dream in
    The moonlight
    My honey I know
    With the dawn
    That you will be gone
    But tonight
    You belong to me

    But tonight
    You belong
    To me

    Will someone please call a surgeon
    Who can crack my ribs and repair this broken heart
    That you're deserting for better company?
    I can't accept that it's over...
    And I will block the door like a goalie tending the net
    In the third quarter of a tied-game rivalry

    So just say how to make it right
    And i swear I'll do my best to comply
    Tell me am i right to think that there could be nothing better
    Than making you my bride and slowly growing old together

    I feel I must interject here you're getting carried away feeling sorry for yourself
    With these revisions and gaps in history
    So let me help you remember.
    I've made charts and graphs that should finally make it clear.
    I've prepared a lecture on why i have to leave

    So please back away and let me go
    I can't my darling i love you so...
    Oh, oh
    Tell me am i right to think that there could be nothing better
    Than making you my bride and slowly growing old together
    Don't you feed me lines about some idealistic future
    Your heart won't heal right if you keep tearing out the sutures

    I know that I have made mistakes and i swear
    I'll never wrong you again
    You've got a lure i can't deny,
    But you've had your chance so say goodbye
    Say goodbye

    Suddenly I wake up from the dream
    Someone tells me
    I've been talking in the sleep
    Finally I know and that's for sure
    I don't believe in daydreams anymore

    When love kills love
    Will someone rescue me
    When love kills love
    It's cutting through so deep
    Well life goes 'round
    And upside down
    It's pretty mad

    When love kills love
    Will someone set me free
    When love kills love
    It's cutting through so deep
    How can we choose
    When all we lose
    Is all we have

    We run away
    From all the pain
    We run away
    From all the pain

    When love kills love
    Will someone rescue me
    When love kills love
    It's cutting through so deep

    When love kills love...

    I knew it had to happen
    Felt the tables turnin'
    Got me through my darkest hour
    I heard the thunder clappin'
    Felt the desert burnin'
    Until you poured on me
    Like a sweet sunshower ...

    So if you're tired of the
    Same old story
    Turn some pages
    I'll be here when you are ready
    To roll with the changes ...

    There is no easy way to say goodbye
    I've prayed this day would never come
    It's best if I just walk away, Better if I run
    Wish I could stay here on our secret island
    Don't want to leave you in this place, but in...

    In another lifetime, A different world

    I swear I never meant to break your heart
    Or ever cause you any pain
    Now you're telling me you can't go on
    You can't last another day
    Where do I go with all this mixed emotion
    I just want to fly away to...

    We'll move along through our separate lives
    It's gonna take some time, but we'll be alright in...

    In another lifetime, In another lifetime, A different world ...

  • Come Undone
    Mine, immaculate dream made breath and skin
    I've been waiting for you
    Signed, with a home tattoo,
    Happy birthday to you was created for you

    Can't ever keep from falling apart
    At the seams
    Cannot believe you're taking my heart
    To pieces

    Oh, it'll take a little time,
    Might take a little crime
    To come undone now

    We'll try to stay blind
    To the hope and fear outside
    Hey child, stay wilder than the wind
    And blow me in to cry

    Who do you need, who do you love
    When you come undone

    Who do you need, who do you love
    When you come undone

    Words, playing deja vu
    Like a radio tune I swear I've heard before
    Chill, is it something real
    Or the magic I'm feeding off your fingers

    Can't ever keep from falling apart
    At the seams
    Cannot I believe you're taking my heart
    To pieces

    Lost, in a snow filled sky, we'll make it alright
    To come undone now

    We'll try to stay blind
    To the hope and fear outside
    Hey child, stay wilder than the wind
    And blow me in to cry

    Who do you need, who do you love
    When you come undone

    Who do you need, who do you love
    When you come undone

    Who do you need, who do you love
    When you come undone...

    there is not a river wide
    not a mountain high
    and neither sin nor evil
    could change how i feel inside
    not all the strength of the ocean
    not all the heat from the sun
    though others i've tried, i just can't deny
    for me you are the one

    true love is priceless
    and for true love we pay a price
    but there's nothing can keep me from loving you
    not fire, not ice

    like a hero or the champion
    you are the best, you're the best
    like religion or superstition
    with you i am blessed
    now the river may grow wider
    the mountains may reach past the sky
    and whether or not you feel the same
    my love shall never die

    but true love is give and take
    true love is sacrifice
    but there's nothing can keep me from loving you
    not fire, not ice

  • And I came home
    Like a stone
    And I fell heavy into your arms
    These days of darkness
    Which we've known
    Will blow away with this new sun

    And I'll kneel down
    Wait for now
    And I'll kneel down
    Know my ground

    And I will wait, I will wait for you
    And I will wait, I will wait for you

    So break my step
    And relent
    You forgave and I won't forget
    Know what we've seen
    And him with less
    Now in some way
    Shake the excess

    But I will wait, I will wait for you
    And I will wait, I will wait for you
    And I will wait, I will wait for you
    And I will wait, I will wait for you

    So I'll be bold
    As well as strong
    And use my head alongside my heart
    So tame my flesh
    And fix my eyes
    That tethered mind free from the lies

    But I'll kneel down
    Wait for now
    I'll kneel down
    Know my ground

    Raise my hands
    Paint my spirit gold
    And bow my head
    Keep my heart slow

    Cause I will wait, I will wait for you
    And I will wait, I will wait for you
    And I will wait, I will wait for you
    And I will wait, I will wait for you

  • fuck me...
    Every time we do this
    I fall for her
    wave after wave after wave
    it's all for her
    I know this can't be wrong i say
    and i'll lie to keep her happy
    as long as I know that you know
    that today I belong
    right here with you
    right here with you...

    and so we watch the sun come up
    from the edge of the deep green sea
    and she listens like her head's on fire
    like she wants to believe in me
    so i try
    put your hands in the sky
    surrender
    remember
    we'll be here forever
    and we'll never say goodbye...

    i've never been so
    colourfully-see-through-head before
    i've never been so
    wonderfully-me-you-want-some-more
    and all i want is to keep it like this
    you and me alone
    a secret kiss
    and don't go home
    don't go away
    don't let this end
    please stay
    not just for today

    never never never never never let me go she says
    hold me like this for a hundred thousand million days
    but suddenly she slows
    and looks down at my breaking face
    why do you cry? what did i say?
    but it's just rain i smile
    brushing my tears away...

    i wish i could just stop
    i know another moment will break my heart
    too many tears
    too many times
    too many years i've cried over you

    how much more can we use it up?
    drink it dry?
    take this drug?
    looking for something forever gone
    but something
    we will always want?

    why why why are you letting me go? she says
    i feel you pulling back
    i feel you changing shape...
    and just as i'm breaking free
    she hangs herself in front of me
    slips her dress like a flag to the floor
    and hands in the sky
    surrenders it all...

    i wish i could just stop
    i know another moment will break my heart
    too many tears
    too many times
    too many years i've cried for you
    it's always the same
    wake up in the rain
    head in pain
    hung in shame
    a different name
    same old game
    love in vain
    and miles and miles and miles and miles and miles
    away from home again...

  • All the things we never know we need
    Looks like we get them in the end
    Measure time in leisure time and greed
    And by the time we get to spend

    A floating bed, a head of stone
    A home plugged into every phone
    Kimono coral floral print
    Exclusive tint and cut reclusive

    No, it doesn't come for free
    But it's the price we pay for happiness

    No, don't talk about more to life than this
    Dream a world maybe no one owns
    No, don't think about all the life we miss
    Swallow doubt as the hunger grows
    Make believe it's like no one knows
    Even if we turn more to most
    We'll never satisfy the hungry ghost

    All the stuff we know we never want
    Seems like we get it anyway
    Safe to say it isn't really wrong
    Not when we know we only throw it all away

    Yeah, all of this we never know we want
    It's like we get it anyway
    Safe to say it isn't ever wrong
    Better to get than to delay

    A 3D screen, a cleaner fit
    A bit pulled out of every hit
    Addicted latest greatest piece
    Design caprice and make the headline

    No, it doesn't come for free
    But it's the price we pay for happiness

    No, don't talk about more to life than this
    Dream a world maybe no one owns
    No, don't think about all the life we miss
    Swallow doubt as the hunger grows
    Make believe it's like no one knows
    Even if we turn more to most
    We'll never satisfy the hungry ghost

    And all of this we know we never need
    Well, it's the price we pay for happiness

  • When the people listen to you, don't you know it means a lot
    'Cause you've got to work so hard for everything you've got
    Can't rest on your laurels now - not when you've got none
    You'll find yourself in the gutter, right back where you came from

    Someone told me being in the know is the main thing
    We all need the security that belonging brings
    Can't stand on your own in these times against all the odds
    I don't want to act uncool like all the other sods

    You slap our backs and pretend you knew
    About all the things that we were gonna do
    What ya gonna do, what ya gonna do when it's over?

    You're all on your own now - don't you think that it's a shame
    But you're the only one responsible to take the blame
    When ya gonna grow up and act, and be yourself
    Cause pretty soon you'll find yourself nailed to the shelf
    Grab it while you can, but don't ever relax
    Cause there's always someone gonna stab your back
    What ya gonna do, what ya gonna do when it's over?

  • A change of speed, a change of style.
    A change of scene, with no regrets,
    A chance to watch, admire the distance,
    Still occupied, though you forget.
    Different colours, different shades,
    Over each mistakes were made.
    I took the blame.
    Directionless so plain to see,
    A loaded gun won't set you free.
    So you say.

    We'll share a drink and step outside,
    An angry voice and one who cried,
    'we'll give you everything and more,
    The strain's too much, can't take much more.'
    Oh, I've walked on water, run through fire,
    Can't seem to feel it anymore.
    It was me, waiting for me,
    Hoping for something more,
    Me, seeing me this time, hoping for something else.

  • Listen to the wind blow, watch the sun rise

    Run in the shadows
    Damn your love, damn your lies

    And if you don't love me now
    You will never love me again
    I can still hear you saying you would never break the chain
    And if you don't love me now
    You will never love me again
    I can still hear you saying you would never break the chain

    Listen to the wind blow, down comes the night

    Run in the shadows
    Damn your love, damn your lies

    Break the silence
    Damn the dark, damn the light

    And if you don't love me now
    You will never love me again
    I can still hear you saying you would never break the chain
    And if you don't love me now
    You will never love me again
    I can still hear you saying you would never break the chain
    And if you don't love me now
    You will never love me again
    I can still hear you saying you would never break the chain

    Chain...keeps us together
    (run into the shadows)
    Chain...keeps us together
    (run into the shadows)
    Chain...keeps us together
    (run into the shadows)
