High
Beautiful dawn - lights
up the shore for me.
There is nothing else
in the world,
I'd rather wake up and
see (with you).
Beautiful dawn - I'm
just chasing time again.
Thought I would die a
lonely man, in endless night.
But now I'm high; running
wild among all the stars above.
Sometimes it's hard to
believe you remember me.
Beautiful dawn - melt
with the stars again.
Do you remember the day
when my journey began?
Will you remember the
end (of time)?
Beautiful dawn - You're
just blowing my mind again
Thought I was born to
endless night, until you shine.
High; running wild among
all the stars above.
Sometimes it's hard to
believe you remember me.
Will you be my shoulder
when I'm grey and older?
Promise me tomorrow starts
with you,
Getting high; running
wild among all the stars above.
Sometimes it's hard to
believe you remember me
Wisemen
She said to me, "Go steady
on me.
Won't you tell me what
the Wise Men said?
When they came down from
Heaven,
Smoked nine 'til seven,
All the shit that they
could find,
But they couldn't escape
from you,
Couldn't be free of you,
And now they know there's
no way out,
And they're really sorry
now for what they've done,
They were three Wise
Men just trying to have some fun."
Look who's alone now,
It's not me. It's not
me.
Those three Wise Men,
They've got a semi by
the sea.
Got to ask yourself the
question,
Where are you now?
Really sorry now,
They weren't to know.
They got caught up in
your
talent show,
With you pernickety little
bastards in your fancy dress,
Who just judge each other
and try to impress,
But they couldn't escape
from you,
Couldn't be free of you,
And now they know there's
no way out,
And they're really sorry
now for what they've done,
They were three Wise
Men just trying to have some fun.
Look who's alone now,
It's not me. It's not
me.
Those three Wise Men,
They've got a semi by
the sea.
Got to ask yourself the
question,
Where are you now?
Tears And Rain
How I wish I could surrender
my soul;
Shed the clothes that
become my skin;
See the liar that burns
within my needing.
How I wish I'd chosen
darkness from cold.
How I wish I had screamed
out loud,
Instead I've found no
meaning.
I guess it's time I run
far, far away; find comfort in pain,
All pleasure's the same:
it just keeps me from trouble.
Hides my true shape,
like Dorian Gray.
I've heard what they
say, but I'm not here for trouble.
It's more than just words:
it's just tears and rain.
How I wish I could walk
through the doors of my mind;
Hold memory close at
hand,
Help me understand the
years.
How I wish I could choose
between Heaven and Hell.
How I wish I would save
my soul.
I'm so cold from fear.
I guess it's time I run
far, far away; find comfort in pain,
All pleasure's the same:
it just keeps me from trouble.
Hides my true shape,
like Dorian Gray.
I've heard what they
say, but I'm not here for trouble.
Far, far away; find comfort
in pain.
All pleasure's the same:
it just keeps me from trouble.
It's more than just words:
it's just tears and rain.
So Long Jimmy
I just can't believe
that it's over.
We were chilling out
on the sofa,
Digging how the guitar
goes,
In a song that no one
knows.
Did you lick that line
yourself,
Or did the voodoo magic
help?
Does everyone have a
different take?
Do you seem real but
I seem fake?
Does everyone get hypnotized
by your fire?
So long, Jimmy, so long.
Though you only stayed
a moment,
We all know that you're
the one. Singing,
So long, Jimmy, so long.
Sure we're glad for the
experience,
We miss you now you've
gone.
We're just swimming in
your soul 'cause,
We all wish we wrote
this song.
Life goes on.
I'm just so relieved
that it's over
We were hanging out going
nowhere,
Digging how the guitar
goes,
In a song that no one
knows.
Did you burn that bridge
yourself,
Or did the voodoo magic
help?
Does everyone have a
different take?
Are you just cool and
I'm just baked?
Does everyone get mesmerized
by your fire?
So long, Jimmy, so long.
Though you only stayed
a moment,
We all know that you're
the one. Singing,
So long, Jimmy, so long.
Sure we're glad for the
experience,
We miss you now you've
gone.
We're just swimming in
your soul 'cause,
We all wish we wrote
this song.
Life goes on
Cry
I have seen peace. I
have seen pain,
Resting on the shoulders
of your name.
Do you see the truth
through all their lies?
Do you see the world
through troubled eyes?
And if you want to talk
about it anymore,
Lie here on the floor
and cry on my shoulder,
I'm a friend.
I have seen birth. I
have seen death.
Lived to see a lover's
final breath.
Do you see my guilt?
Should I feel fright?
Is the fire of hesitation
burning bright?
And if you want to talk
about it once again,
On you I depend. I'll
cry on your shoulder.
You're a friend.
You and I have been through
many things.
I'll hold on to your
heart.
I wouldn't cry for anything
But don't go tearing
your life apart.
I have seen fear. I have
seen faith.
Seen the look of anger
on your face.
And if you want to talk
about what will be,
Come and sit with me,
and cry on my shoulder,
I'm a friend.
And if you want to talk
about it anymore,
Lie here on the floor
and cry on my shoulder,
I'm a friend |
You'Re
Beautiful Sonnerie
My life is brilliant.
My love is pure.
I saw an angel.
Of that I'm sure.
She smiled at me on the
subway.
She was with another
man.
But I won't lose no sleep
on that,
'Cause I've got a plan.
You're beautiful. You're
beautiful.
You're beautiful, it's
true.
I saw your face in a
crowded place,
And I don't know what
to do,
'Cause I'll never be
with you.
Yeah, she caught my eye,
As we walked on by.
She could see from my
face that I was,
Fucking high,
And I don't think that
I'll see her again,
But we shared a moment
that will last till the end.
You're beautiful. You're
beautiful.
You're beautiful, it's
true.
I saw your face in a
crowded place,
And I don't know what
to do,
'Cause I'll never be
with you.
You're beautiful. You're
beautiful.
You're beautiful, it's
true.
There must be an angel
with a smile on her face,
When she thought up that
I should be with you.
But it's time to face
the truth,
I will never be with
you.
Goodbye My Lover
Did I disappoint you
or let you down?
Should I be feeling guilty
or let the judges frown?
'Cause I saw the end
before we'd begun,
Yes I saw you were blinded
and I knew I had won.
So I took what's mine
by eternal right.
Took your soul out into
the night.
It may be over but it
won't stop there,
I am here for you if
you'd only care.
You touched my heart
you touched my soul.
You changed my life and
all my goals.
And love is blind and
that I knew when,
My heart was blinded
by you.
I've kissed your lips
and held your head.
Shared your dreams and
shared your bed.
I know you well, I know
your smell.
I've been addicted to
you.
Goodbye my lover.
Goodbye my friend.
You have been the one.
You have been the one
for me.
I am a dreamer but when
I wake,
You can't break my spirit
- it's my dreams you take.
And as you move on, remember
me,
Remember us and all we
used to be
I've seen you cry, I've
seen you smile.
I've watched you sleeping
for a while.
I'd be the father of
your child.
I'd spend a lifetime
with you.
I know your fears and
you know mine.
We've had our doubts
but now we're fine,
And I love you, I swear
that's true.
I cannot live without
you
Goodbye my lover.
Goodbye my friend.
You have been the one.
You have been the one
for me.
And I still hold your
hand in mine.
In mine when I'm asleep.
And I will bear my soul
in time,
When I'm kneeling at
your feet.
Goodbye my lover.
Goodbye my friend.
You have been the one.
You have been the one
for me.
I'm so hollow, baby,
I'm so hollow.
I'm so, I'm so, I'm so
hollow.
Out Of My MindSonnerie
Judging by the look on
the organ-grinder,
He'll judge me by the
fact that my face don't fit.
It's touching that the
monkey sits on my shoulder.
He's waiting for the
day when he gets me,
But I don't need no alibi
- I'm a puppet on a string.
I just need this stage
to be seen.
We all need a pantomime
to remind us what is real.
Hold my eye and know
what it means.
I'm out of my mind.

Won't you be a friend
of mine to remind me what is real?
Hold my heart and see
that it bleeds.
I'm out of my mind
BillySonnerie
Billy's leaving today
(don't know where he's going).
Holds his head in disgrace
(he can't escape the truth).
He knows the price that
he's paid.
He admits that it's too
late to admit that he's afraid.
Tomorrow comes. Sorrow
becomes his soul mate.
The damage is done. The
prodigal son is too late.
Old doors are closed
but he's always open,
To relive time in his
mind.
Oh Billy.
Billy's leaving today
(don't know where he's going).
He's got lines on his
face (they tell the story of his
pain).
He accepts it's his fate.
He admits it took too
long to admit that he was wrong.
Tomorrow comes. Sorrow
becomes his soul mate.
The damage is done. The
prodigal son is too late.
Old doors are closed
but he's always open,
To relive time in his
mind.
Oh Billy.
Once he was a lover sleeping
with another.
Now he's just known as
a cheat.
And he wish he'd had
a mirror; looked a little clearer.
Seen into the eyes of
the weak.
Tomorrow comes. Sorrow
becomes his soul mate.
The damage is done. The
prodigal son is too late.
Old doors are closed
but he's always open,
To relive time in his
mind.
Oh Billy.
No BraverySonnerie
There are children standing
here,
Arms outstretched into
the sky,
Tears drying on their
face.
He has been here.
Brothers lie in shallow
graves.
Fathers lost without
a trace
A nation blind to their
disgrace,
Since he's been here.
And I see no bravery,
No bravery in your eyes
anymore.
Only sadness.
Houses burnt beyond repair.
The smell of death is
in the air.
A woman weeping in despair
says,
He has been here.
Tracer lighting up the
sky.
It's another families‚
turn to die.
A child afraid to even
cry out says,
He has been here.
And I see no bravery,
No bravery in your eyes
anymore.
Only sadness.
There are children standing
here,
Arms outstretched into
the sky,
But no one asks the question
why,
He has been here.
Old men kneel and accept
their fate.
Wives and daughters cut
and raped.
A generation drenched
in hate.
Yes, he has been here.
And I see no bravery,
No bravery in your eyes
anymore.
Only sadness. |
