- A Sadness Runs Through Him
People are puppets, held together with string.
There's a beautiful sadness that runs through him, as he asked me to pray to the god he doesn't believe in.
Time and again boys are raised to be men: impatient they start, fearful at end.
But here was a man mourning tomorrow.
He drank, but finally drown in his sorrow.
He could not brace up his tension.
- Bumpy Ride
How does it feel
To spit out sunny skies
And do you believe it's for real
That you've always got it right
When the words you had explode
And you swallow them up whole
No you gotta let go let go
- Choices
In the morning
I could take the burning sun
I could be the only warning but im not the only one
So forgive me, Cause its more than I can bear
In demand I make my mind up by deciding not to care
Stop giving me choices
Stop giving me choices
- Clinging On For Life
I need you to reach me
Teach me how to love
I need you to reach me
Teach me how to love
'Cos I must have got it wrong
If I had love then it's gone
I've been living without it for oh so long
- Devil's In The Detail
All alone I fought the cause
Up against the clock that started me
It's the life anonymous
Trusted with the lives of all of us
I failed to see the flaws in the details I adored
And played God, I played God, played God
- Everything goes dark
Hypnotised by mirrors,
You should look out your window,
Beneath cracked panes of ice,
Your sky's on fire.
Drowned by the screams of decadence,
A call to arms
Too busy working out to,
- Giddy Up
Monday left in the morning, and the week flew by.
You took your leave without warning, not even a reason why.
Your lips about to be tongue tied, are you loud and clear?
Now I'm telling you that I want you, yeah.
So now it's b-b-bye b-b-baby won't you giddy up?(Woahohoh) before my love runs cold.
And if you make me wait I'll give you up.(ohohoh)
Cause your loves on hold
- Glorious
Glorious,
Make me feel glorious once more..
Take your sharp sharp scissor hands,
and cut me some slack and I'll spin you in wool.
Pull it over your eyes, cause' I'm charmin'
Take a long long look at me (Long long look at me)
and give me a light cause the flame has expired,
- Goodbye Mr A
There's a hole in your logic
You who know all the answers
You claim science aint magic
And expect me to buy it
And Goodbye Mr A
You promised you would love us
But you knew too much
- Goodbye Mr. A
There’s a hole in your logic,
You who know all the answers, (Oh-oh-oh-oh)
You claim science ain’t magic, (Oo-oo-oo-oo)
And expect me to buy it
Goodbye Mr. A,
You promised you would love us, but you knew too much,
Goodbye Mr. A,
- Killer
I hate my work, but I'm in control
I'm fearless now, but it cost my soul
Save yourselves, the moon is full
Under its power, gravitational pull
Blood red lips, they shake like leaves
You're flesh and blood, but what's underneath?
- Little Brutes
They caught wind of the weak and tied him to a tree today.
Paul's father says they're pests destined to just be strays.
They broke his little back with a little game they played.
Boys will be boys, isn't that what grown ups say?
I just stood there, silent, rooted to the spot.
Marveling at how brave I'm not.
- Live By The Ocean
I want to live by the sea,
Live by the ocean.
I did my best to fit in,
But I outstayed my welcome.
I change my name and my friends,
Run till the land ends,
But I'm always waiting for me
No matter how hard I pretend.
- Lovers In My Head
I need a second opinion,
I want you cross-examined.
Where there's a whill, there's a way,
And there's a will alright.
I close my eyes and count to ten,
And when I open them again,
I want you to pretend that when
- Made To Measure
Meet me tonight by the mulberry lake,
I got two legs which they said they'd brake,
Such a silly thing to do,
Fall in love with you...
Dont be scared,
I got plans of my own,
We may be born here but this isn't our home,
- One Born Every Minute
Born again, and one day old
An untold story to unfold.
I could be Prime Minister
And turn my country I wish I -
Nothing quite as sinister
As all she's ever seen
But I like the look of that movie scene
- Rules
Sense never seemed to make sense to me.
And not the sense you administer repeatedly.
I fled to the hills so I could clear my mind.
I couldn't swallow the pills that I was prescribed.
People didn't always like each other did they?
People didn't always get along.
- Runs In the Family
I'd like to be the man who runs amok in broad daylight
Whose vested interest is met with the biggest bite
I'd like to be the man who doesn't run from the fight
I'd like to be the man who cannot keep it in his pants
So comfortable in his skin you can't help but be entranced
I'd like to be the man, oh
But I think the chance has passed
- Sarajevo
We were the lucky few.
A luck we soon outgrew,
And now instead we drift again.
How I miss Sarajevo.
Oh we were lost at sea,
A pause for thought, the we
Slip beneath the foam and fall
- Sister Sister
-Sister Sister-
She's got magic in her fingertips,
She's turning me on now.
Rubbing shoulders but not kissing lips,
- Squeeze
-Squeeze-
Trouble
Where have you been all my life?
Always surrendered
- The Trick To Life
Everything you love turns to dust,
You'd make more of it but you felt rushed,
By all that's periphary,
You held tight, but on the contrary,
The trick to life is not to get too attached to it,
The trick to life is not to get too attached to it,
- Unlikely Hero
Only love only love will save us now
Only love will talk me down
You're my unlikely hero
I try so hard but you won't surrender
I want you know
I like everybody
- Worried About Ray
The truth be told, the truth be told
I'm worried about the future holds, the future holds
I'm starting to worry about Ray
The truth be told, the truth be told
I'm worried about the future holds, the future holds
I'm seriously worried about Ray
- Worst Case Scenario
You got out the wrong side of bed and liked it
The only love you get is unrequited
Mourning Monday all week long's not healthy
But being happy's only for the wealthy
You can't see past the worst case scenario
You'd be happier instead if you'd stayed in bed
I pray one day I'll live to see you break a smile
