UDI SUBUDI SONG LYRICS

Won't Let Go

I was always aching, lookin’ for something new
‘til got what I wished for, and it’s more than I can chew
Though you’re standing on my walk, wet cement is never set
Until the talk gets heavy, we go deeper


I won’t let go, once I get you right here in front of me
When I get a hold on you well you know
I won’t let go


Just sit and rest a spell, you keep pushing hard on me
To be everything I was, when you first lay eyes on me
If the dream is still alive, let me follow in your steps
Let me carry you along, we go deeper


CHORUS

It was only a joke, how could I tell you were seriously thinking
About whether you seriously love me
Oh whatever you find, know that you’re here in my heart , and my soul
Know that I love you


SOLO

Taste the mercy on your lips, please don’t think of me that way
I’m the one who held your hand, when you fell apart that day
If the dream is still a dream, rest your worries in my lap
Let me lay you down to bed, we go deeper and deeper


CHORUS x 2

I’ll always be here with you
You’ll never be rid of me

As Far As I Can Tell

All along I watched you watch, the seasons turn to grey, then run away
Form a lie that keeps you strong, behind those distant eyes, I can tell
And nobody wants to be themselves anymore
Well you’re not gonna try to buy and push, what it sells


Well just move along and watch things go
Sell your soul for another show
The road you ride it goes nowhere
As far as I can tell


Know your mind and know your means, use whatever or whom, to get along
The way you walk and talk and stare, I’ve seen it all before, but I don’t care
And nobody wants to be themselves anymore
You find out the one you love has had, you framed


Well just move along and watch things go
Sell your soul for another show
The road you ride it goes nowhere
As far as I can tell

BASS

CHORUS (x2)

The road your ride it’s just as well
I, I can tell
I, I can tell

That's Life

She climbs the highest mountain, with you underneath her thumb
Up there the air is lighter, crown the fool he's number one
Your disadvantage, is suddenly displayed
You're not the man she dreams of, couldn't keep her entertained

That's life, clickin' at your heels but it never does come true
That's life, holdin' onto something that's holding down on you
Real life, nothing last forever and noone's satisfied
Another scar left wide open, feelin' dark and empty inside
Hey hey, well that's life

A sea of empty people, pushing hard to get ahead
They'd slash you for the mighty dollar just to keep thier egos fed
But in the end it's all over will it be enough for you
Cuz you can't take it with you, when there's nothing left to do

CHORUS

Radiate, skies are grey
Another day
Telephone, noone's home
Sail the storm, all alone

CHORUS

Fray

Go with your friends, they tell you what you like to hear
Like you don't need him messing with your head
I really wish you would, but here you sing on my machine
Telling me you hope I'm doing good, well (well)

I don't need you, trying to make amends
You try to keep the rain all for yourself
And I don't need you, trying to fray the ends
I'm trying to tie it up here for myself

Here goes the pain, yeah twistin' in my veins
Mixing with the whiskey and the rain
Here comes the light, casting shadows on my bed
Lying there she don't look quite the same as you (but)

CHORUS

GUITAR

You don't need to come over baby
I'll do what you won't do
I don't need you to tempt me baby
But now you call like a friend of mine
You wanna talk but I'm fine, fine, finding by way without you

I get so excited, I get back I just can't hide it
When I think of the times we tried and we threw it all away
You wanna be with the next get rich trick, go ahead get your kicks
But don't tell me you're my best friend when you're tugging at his belt

CHORUS

(Return to top)

Walking on the Ceiling

Do you remember when you were a little boy
All that you wanted was candy and another toy
Are you the same have your toys just become more expensive
Or are you too busy to play have you come to your senses
(It doesn’t make much sense to me)

Do you, I do
Remember the wisdom of youth
I try to hold on to the feeling
Of running in the rain and walking on the ceiling

Well I met an old friend last Christmas, glued to a barstool
We got to talking about all those times back in high school
He said ‘Johnny I remember when the whole world was ours for the taking
I said ‘It’s still the same man, don’t let your dreams be forsaken
(Have another one on me)

CHORUS

Why does it always, seem to take so long
Just to make your way through every busy day
Just remember, there’s a child in you
Waiting to return, from some enchanted land
Upon a dragon’s wing yeah

Well I had a girlfriend who told me that I should grow up some
Well I tried it out and I found that it wasn’t that much fun
Now I’ve got a lover, let’s me feel just like I want to
When you know you got each other, you’ve got so much to hold onto
(Give it to me now)

CHORUS

Fine, Fine Day

There was a reason I took it in the chin
I didn’t listen to what I heard inside me
So tired of hearing the warning in the wind
I didn’t notice the devil sit beside me
I’m not afraid to be on my own
I’m not ashamed to be seen without a friend
Don’t want no charity at all

It’s a mighty fine day, to be alone at the bar
It’s a mighty fine day, to put a dinger in my new car
It’s a mighty fine day, to be alone and without
It’s a fine, day to be down and out

There was a time when I thought I had romance
I didn’t notice what I was getting into
All things considered I’m glad I took a chance
All things uncovered I think it was a sin to...
I’m not afraid to be all alone
I’m not ashamed to play the man in black again
Don’t want no charity at all

CHORUS

I’m not about to trade my one room shack
for a castle in the sand
I’m just a poor old boy
Trying to get to be a poor old man

I’m not afraid to be on my own
I’m not ashamed to be seen without a friend
Don’t want no charity at all

CHORUS

(For walking in a stupor, and cutting off a finger)
(And selling it to gypsys, just to buy another beer)

Parachute Man

Parachute man, I can’t throw you as high as I can
But only the wind knows where to take you
Parachute man, why won’t you understand
You’re living in that tree forever

When I saw you in the grocery store that day
Sitting on your shelf, a package with a plane
A dollar ninety-nine was all I had to spend
Just to buy myself those green and yellow friends
CHORUS

Out in my back yard is where I like to play
Like we did that warm and sunny day
I loosely rolled one up and threw it to the sky
But I never thought that you would fly too high

CHORUS

Now that you’re gone, how can I go on?
Now that you’re stuck up in a tree
Well what can I do, I’m so lonely without you
There’s nobody left here to play with me

CHORUS

Pesticide

Jenny’s messed up on pesticide
She does it with her friends, the ones that don’t hide
Sometimes it makes her feel a little sick inside
Her parents beg to get some help, but she don’t have the time
She says it’s not so bad, it’s better than turpentine

It doesn’t always feel, so good inside
It doesn’t always mean, that’s the way it’s gonna stay
Sometimes the things we do don’t coincide with the magic moments
That’s only how it goes today

Ricky’s caught up in the moving tide
The city lights and the nightlife everything’s fine
Sometimes the penthouse gets lonely inside
(That’s when he) drinks off that melancholy, two shots gonna fix tonight
This girl might do the trick but what he really want’s a wife

CHORUS

Mickey’s dream is a little thin tonight
Her little girl’s locked up quiet and tight
How could we go wrong & how could this be right
Can we ever bridge this feeling, can it ever be so close
Can I ever let you know, little girl, I love you most

CHORUS

Twice a Week

Help is on the way
Said Columbus to the "savage"
It’s the same thing when you say
Here we are and there you have it
The past is in the can
I’m looking forward to the future
I don’t wanna fight no more
I wanna walk down to the lake

This duress is hard to follow
With a kiss and tender touch
Wipe away that salty river
It couldn’t have hurt that much

There’s a cushion for the May Queen
She sets her fanny down real nice
Here we’re sitting on the bleachers talking
Catching slivers in our seats
There’s not a day without some sorrow
Not one night without some heat
I’m not worried ‘bout tomorrow
Because tonight we can’t be beat

Once I was pushing for a breakdown
I’m amazed it took this long
I’ve been trying hard to tell you
All along I wasn’t wrong

I don’t mean that what’s gone wrong
Is anyone’s fault for holding on
But something about you leaps into the fall
I don’t need to be always be right
I’m a generous man, and every night I ask
What do you need and what do you want from me

Conscience heavy like a freight train
I come rolling to a stop
As you shield a lonely candle
Wax burns your fingers as it drops
I don’t remember how it started
I’m just glad it didn’t last
Don’t let the past come in between us
‘Cause I don’t think we’ll get it back

Now I’m pushing for the night queen
And I’m revving up real strong
I wanna push you in the water’s edge
and follow you down that fall, oh
I’m not worried ‘bout tomorrow
We’ve made it through it all this long
This long, oh
(Return to top)
 

Be OK

If I never would eat would I be OK, would I be OK
If I never would sleep would I be OK, would I be OK

And if I would refuse to let this abuse, drag me down
If I live with the spirit and not with the age, will I stick around Forever, and never, to grow old

If I never had sex would I be OK, would I be OK
And if I tangle with death will I be OK, will I be OK

If I had the time to drink a bottle of wine & an ice cold beer
Every time I found that I couldn’t go on without the fear
Of being, chained, to growing old

What will they think of me when I’m dead and gone
Will I just vanish with the day
Or will they sit and smile
Thinkin’ ‘bout me singing in the haze

If I never inhale would I be OK, would I be OK
And if I ended it now would I be OK, would I be OK
(Return to top)
 

Only a Thought

It’s only a thought that I’m giving
It’s only a thought for the night
And it’s only a thought that I’m giving, I’m giving tonight
I’m giving tonight

If you gave me your heart I wouldn’t have cared
‘Cause you bought it and sold it and I wasn’t prepared
To give thanks and give praise to a heart that has never been free

It’s only a wish that I’m selling
It’s only a wish for the night
And it’s only a wish that I’m selling, I’m selling tonight
I’m selling tonight

I’m selling a wish that I’ve gotten for free
It’s been beaten and burned, by the ones who believe
That a wish is a foolish idea you never did need

It’s only belief that I’ve buried
I buried in a hole for the night
And it’s only belief that I buried, I buried tonight
I buried tonight
I buried belief in a hole six feet deep
Belief that my life would be welcomed with peace
But now doubt and regret are the children I have left to feed

It’s only a thought that I’m giving
It’s only a thought for the night
And it’s only a thought that I’m giving I’m giving tonight, I’m giving tonight
Tonight...

Never Around

You said I was never around
You said I was never around
Like a dog keeps running around
You said I was never around

If these tears are what you’re made of
Then how could it be so
Once upon a morning, we were laughing so
Though these things are not for certain
If I was gone too long
Well I’m sorry baby, if I was wrong

CHORUS

All the nights I toiled over
The sunset in my soul
If I could only express it, I’d be a little less in control
All the passion teeming over always
I was dreaming of the perfect song
I never saw, the sunrise in you no

CHORUS

And all you could manage was a phone call baby
You wouldn’t see me
I was a little let down and a whole lot
‘Tangled up in blue’

INSTR.

CHORUS

The band would play, and you would say
‘Why am I here you’re not there anyway’
I was out on the road, searching for something
Close to my soul, trying to find myself
And I lost you...

Angeline

Angeline, don’t you cry
I couldn’t leave you even if I wanted
Angeline, try and try, to make you see

The way I am, so hard to please
I never give an inch baby, until I’m on my knees
It’s all for love, and none too soon
Even if I say, I’m gonna walk away
I’ll be there for you

CHORUS

War is hell, sometimes it’s true
Just like a big brick wall baby, you try to punch right through
The words can fly, they can sting you too
But by and by all the tears’ll dry, I’ll be there for you

CHORUS

Every time I leave you crying
I can’t forgive myself
I never meant to hurt you baby
Don’t you know

Every time I walk away, I shuffle down the street, tryin’
I try so hard to remember, why...

GUITAR

CHORUS

Hurtin' Kind

Now I see her walkin’ down my street
Never thought that I, could ever feel so weak
This sort of hurt ain’t what i want tonight
Knew better but, got hurt by, the hurtin’ kind

Wanna change this, turn the table tonight
Pain and pleasure, any measure would be so right
If i could show her what’s on my mind
Then she’d know that I can too be the hurtin’ kind

I want to feel better, whips & leather
Take her to the rodeo
Whisper to me, maybe could be until the next time
This sort of hurtin’, what’s on my mind
Knew better but, got hurt by, the hurtin’ kind

And now I know I shoulda left it alone
Weeds of passions’ got me scratchin & up all night
This sort of hurt ain’t what i want tonight
Knew better but, got hurt by, the hurtin’ kind
Knew better but, got hurt by, the hurtin’ kind

Keep Loving You

Once in a dream, I heard a song, in the distance
And that melody sprang into tune when you walked in the room
Well I knew, from the moment, I first kissed you
Baby there was love, oh sweet love following you

Well you told me, that you felt it, in an instant
In the lights of the dance floor we touched and held oh so close
But now my baby, baby I’ve found out
How those beautiful legs have been running around
And like a fool, here I sit drying your tears

I, don’t know why, I keep loving you
When I know how you hurt me sometimes
I, don’t know why, I keep loving you
Well I guess, it’s just a matter, a matter of time

Well I stepped, up to the bar, to buy a whiskey
And a glass of the red wine you sip oh so sweet
Well I turned, and I saw you pressed up against him
In his arms you lifted right up, right off of your feet

CHORUS

GUITAR

A month ago, you up & walked out on me for a banker
When you found out my account held nothing but change
And now my baby you come walkin’ back to me saying all that you need is my lovin’ so sweet
Well I guess, that your banker had a change of his own

CHORUS

(Return to top)
 

In the Clear

The broken glass has fallen, seems you missed it wide
The pain is hard to swallow, now you run and hide
Just beyond the horizon, it’s just another day

Dreams are meant to follow, not to fade away
You’re so content to wallow, in what you are today

Your bends are sought to sorrow
Teardrops for tomorrow’s rain
Your secret’s bound to falter
Once king but now a pauper again
Denied and crucified

Sundown on another day, your little black book just opened wider
(Under breath you carry on, glove the hand that holds the gun)
You’re running out of time (Pull the thorn that’s in your side)
Dig deep for another way, yeah the voice gets thin but the will is stronger
(Holdin’ on and holdin’ in, is there any way to win, no)
You’re denied and crucified

You think you’re all above them, think you’re in the clear
When no one else is watching, you all but disappear

Rewind back to zero
Beyond your broken level lies, the key
While lost in your escaping
Your love’s lying naked yeah
She’s lying here with me

CHORUS

Get on, get on my level
Get on, get on
Get on, get on my level
Get on...

And everybody knows, just by looking at you
Nothing good can grow, in a total vacuum
It makes you wanna run, it’s killing you to see
The love you lost is naked and she’s lying here with me

CHORUS

Stowaway

My ship casts shadows on the sand
In my dreams, I pluck arrows from my hands
I cannot grasp the things I understood when I set away
My ship casts shadows on the sand

The light was a friend of mine one day
I was worn, like a building, all but laid away
Suddenly a light from above shone upon my leg
I believed in God that day, I believed

GUITAR

Raising glasses, spilling time
Scraping the excess in the sink
Puzzling the masses, while stowing away on this ride
To a better place...

Everything

Wake up the Sons of Satan, tell 'em to get off my couch
My parents are coming over, to do lunch
They've expressed concern about me, the company I keep
I tell 'em not to worry, I'm in too deep

Steel blue eyes, blood red veins
Distant smile through a cigarette stain
Always searching, but never in vain
You keep waiting for your everything

Forget your credit card bill, Monday it'll still be there
You're more concerned about the, color in your hair
Who looks the best on Broadway, or down on Water Street
You'll have them Tommy Boys, at your feet

CHORUS

GUITAR

Are you comfortable...would you like another drink?
Your eyes are beautiful, such a tragic shade of pink
And if you're wondering why I asked you here, I thought you outta know
That you died last night, and everything you waited for
Was nothing more, nothing more than everything you missed

CHORUS

(Return to top)

Under the Stone

I could see you, from across the stage
I could tell you liked the big lights, tell you want the big time
I can feel the fist of fortune swinging over me
Wouldn't you like to join me, don't you like to join me

Do you ever really wonder, which way the pressure lies
Have you ever really wondered what lies
Under the stone, under the stone

There's a pretty little girl, moving with the rolling tide
Standing at the counter, selling you a sandwich
Don't you see the gleam of passion glowing in here eyes
She could be the one yeah, she could be the one yeah

Do you ever really wonder, which way the passion overflows
Have you ever really wondered what lies
Under the stone, under the stone (you might be surprised)

GUITAR

Some people tell you, to stop and smell the roses
I say forget the flowers, pick up a stone and see what grows there
I'd like to tell you to open up your mind
Get some dirt beneath your nails and see what you can find

You can see me, reeling with the spell I'm under
I used to have long hair, I rolled with gods of thunder
Now that I've cut my hair I'm earning some respect
But I'm the same 'low-shifty-fuck-queer-criminal-suspect'

Do you ever really wonder, which way the judgements tend to lie
Have you ever really wondered what lies
Under the stone, under the stone
Under the stone

Reverb

They could put me in the press
You could read between the lines
You could say I am the saviour of our youth, but the truth
Is that I' m just another guy

You can put me down on tape
I could tell you something strange
You could think that it was cool, if you do then you're a fool
It was just something that I said

This is my song, don't blame me if I'm wrong
The reverb goes on, long after we are gone
Just put your spirit in a box, and sell it in a song

Empty bottles, empty days
The ceremony in a haze
Present the trophy with a smile
And throw up on right behind the stage

Attend the parties in a blur
Invite the models back for sure
Spread out the mink coats on the bed
And dive naked in the fur

This is my song, don't believe it if it's wrong
The reverb goes on, when the likes of us are gone
Just put your freedom in a box, and sell it in a song

INSTR.

They could put me in the press
You could read between the lines
You could say I am the saviour of our youth, but the truth
Is that I'm much too young to die

This is my song, don't believe it if it's wrong
The reverb goes on, when the sales and charts are gone
Just put your spirit in a box, and sell it in a song
Just put your freedom in a box...

George Harrison

I had a dream, George Harrison came to me
He said "How would you like to get together on a number
It's a turnaround, it's in the key of "G"
I couldn't believe he was singing along with me
Strokin' a fine old Gretch with a fine silk sleeve
And I realized, I must have made it after all

You are ah...always with me
Ah...always with me
Ah...always with me

I had a dream, yeah the Walrus was definitely Paul
He was sitting on a bench with his eyes all glazed
And I realized, he's just another man like you and me
I said "I'm so sorry to have heard of your loss
Isn't life a funny thing, we find love but at what cost
Just the memories, the memories of yesterday"

CHORUS x 2

GUITAR

I had a dream, John Winston came to me
I said "Hold on, wait a minute, what is this I see
Are you a figment of my imagination, or did I wake up in your dream"
He said "I've been watching you, oh from very close
You see these things that you\rquote ve been looking for, the things you want the most
Are hidden deep within your lover's eyes, light upon her smile
Christ you know it ain't so tough, Christ you know it all you need is love..."

CHORUS x 3

And I'm lost in a dream
And I weep for the children
Yes I weep for the children

I'm not about to be tossed out, used up, put away downstairs
Just like some precious toy, 'cause Ringo's keeping time
Yeah Starkey keep the beat for me

And when I wake up in this sullen void, I hear a noise
Archangels echoing
I had a dream, George Harrison came to me

Fear & Confession

You say, "I'm afraid of your faith"
Cause you don't know, if I mean what I say
(I'm telling you baby)

I will confess to you right away, if there's ever a moment of doubt
I will rely on this very day, and what we said baby
I will confess to you right away

You say, "I'm alive in a dream and I hope that it stays this way (forever)"
I know...it would never just make it OK, by saying it
(I'm not saying it baby but)

I will confess to you right away, if there's ever a moment of doubt
I will rely on this very day, I promise you baby
I will confess to you right away

INSTR.

Touch the dream
Don't fear the light
It's enough that we're able, to talk about all this

I know...you are wrapped in the treasures that you know
Well it's more than me, more than you, it's more than the sum
It's something intrinsic to you

I will confess to you right away, if there's ever a moment of doubt
I will rely on this very day, and what we said baby
I will confess to you right away, I promise it baby
I will confess to you right away

Hard Pressed

We were struggling with something that was far beyond our reach
Somewhere in the past we knew that from all this our time would teach us
How our lives could change and yet our love could still be strong
How our love will grow if we'd admit it when we're wrong
And I say yes, to yesterday

You were living out your pennance sitting high upon the wall
You would not look me in the eyes but suddenly you called
Out to me and told me that you might be leaving soon
I said "That's OK I'll see you later at the room
And you said

"We're not gonna rent that movie later
I think it\rquote s time we had a talk and baby
I wanna tell you baby," well I gotta tell I you baby

I bet you miss me when I'm gone
I bet you're hard as iron pressed to find a way to carry on (without me baby)
I bet you miss my stupid ways before too long
Sometimes life is easy babe, but sometimes it's just hard to carry on

I was living with the Beatles as another welcome guide
"Yesterday" was sad and soothing "Nowhere Man" was oddly introspective
Of just how felt, when I was young and wise
Now I've seen things everywhere sometimes I wanna cry
And I said

"Just put your pencils on the table
I want you to write it down right here
So I can read it over baby, oh is it over baby

CHORUS

GUITAR

She said "Just get your records off the table
You take them home with you and straight to bed
See if they can love you baby, 'cause you don't love me baby

CHORUS x 2

Sometimes life is easy babe, lay on top the bed you made
Sometimes life is just ok, and sometimes it's just hard...to carry on

Headstrong

Here I'm headin' down an open road got clear view for my sigh
Asked a girl if I could hitch a ride and leave the freight train far behind
Cause where the railway goes, in a circle round it knows
Where it starts thats where it ends

Hey I'm not feelin' proud, now that I'm finally found, gettin' back where I belong
If I'm crazy, don't be lonely, when I'm gone
Bad love has made me blind, but now that I'm seein' fine, I see, pain is all
And if you're lonely, don't be lazy, pain is all
Wind behind the headstrong

Every city and every town, I can't erase her from my mind
Heard the warning should have seen the sign, there's danger up ahead
And when I saw you there, in his arms you didn't care
Should have known a long, long time ago

CHORUS

INSTR.

I wasn't ready for the wars you wage, I wasn't looking for it anyway
But somehow I found it...
I found solace in the solitude, it kinda left me with an attitude
The things you do, what don't kill us gonna come around and do it again \

CHORUS

One More Day

Monday morning I just wince in pain
At the thought of another work week here again
It’s all that I can do to keep my jar half full of change
Monday morning off I go again


Every week I barely get one day
To call my own I’m workin’ to just pave my way
Come home mow the lawn and pay my bills and feed my dog and then I
Crawl in bed and kiss my tired wife


If I saw, this man standing in the glass
Would he recognize just who he meant to be
And if I saw the time, the time that’s come to pass
What would I think of what I’ve come to be


Weekend comes I hit the town again
Same old bars I see my same old friends
Drink and talk about the days we had more time
To think about these things we would do then


If I saw, this man standing in the glass
Would he recognize just who he meant to be
And if I saw the time, the time that’s come to pass
What would I think of what I’ve come to be


Sunday night I sit out back and think
Tomorrow starts another week the same old tired thing
Can I seem to salvage just another day to call my own
All these thing I do I’m not sure why but I’m still gettin’ old
Another week gone by and I’m just barely getting by it seems...
Seems like every week I live another day
Every week I live just one more day


Another day
Can I have another day
Just one more day

Dare You

Dare you see me, angel walking
Moonlight highway, all alone
I can’t show you, what comes tomorrow
But dare you love me, we might find out


The reasons here, I just don’t see
Why you’re wandering, far away from me (I can hear it)
In between us, there’s a harmony
Open up to it, let the music run true and free (c’mon baby)


CHORUS

If I could see, a million stars shine
You’d be brighter yet, similarly not quite mine (I can tell you)
Indecision, get’s the best of me
I’m no angel but, ain’t no devil been good to me (say my prayers and)


CHORUS

GUITAR

Deep into me, everything in it’s time you say
I can’t wait that long, yes my love is strong
Baby that’s the reason I ain’t never gonna ever leave you


CHORUS x 2

Dare you love me, we might find out (yeah)
If I see a way to love you , c’mon see your way to me

Voices in My Head

I can’t believe, I can’t believe
I can’t believe the things they told me
Things you said, things you said
The things you said don’t make no sense to me
It’s sheer atrocity, it’s sheer atrocity
It don’t make no sense to me

It’s in my head, it’s in my head
It’s in my head these little voices
Can’t run away, can’t run away
Can’t run away cuz I can’t run from myself
As far as I can tell, a cell inside a cell
In me there’s someone else

Call me on the phone, when you know I’m never home
Tell me I’m not here at all, when I’m lookin in the mirror
Should be plain to see, that it’s pure insanity
But then who will listen to
These voices in my head, voices in my head
These voices in my head

Under my bed, under my bed
Under my bed you will find me trembling
From all the fear, all the fear
From all the fear what will they tell me to do next
Yes this could kill me yet, yes this could kill me yet
Then you will find me dead

Call me on the phone, when you know I’m never home
Tell me I’m not here at all, when I’m lookin’ in the mirror
Should be plain to see, that it’s pure insanity
But then who will listen to
These voices in my head, voices in my head
These voices in my head, voices in my head
These voices in my head

Ten Thousand Suns

There’s something happening to me, there’s something happening here
There’s poison blood in my coffee, there’s poison words in my ears
Running when I’m sleeping and I wake before I fall
Laughing while I’m weeping for the painted lady come to call
When will the river run clean
And you know, you know

Where do we go from here
Which is the way that passion rules the broken hearted
How do I see through all these lights around you
Where do we go from here

I feel the pressure releasing, I feel the pleasure return
I feel the fever increasing, I feel anxiety burn
Standing in the center of the circle of delight
Got this funny feeling that there’s something not exactly right
When will the circle come clean
And you know, you know

CHORUS

Oo oh oo oh oh
Sometimes I don’t understand, a single word that you’re sayin’
It’s just like staring at the Sun, I think I see you
I really feel the heat, Aurora on my skin how you touch me
But is it you I really see, oh oh oo oh oh oh
I think it’s you, alive in me

CHORUS x 2

I've Never Known

I’ve never known, I’ve never known
What a lonely heart was like
I’ve never been, I’ve never been left
To wander in the night
I’ve never seen, I’ve never seen
An opportunity
I’ve never reached, I’ve never reached
My hand into the sky

I don’t believe I’ll ever be the same
(Now that you’ve passed before my eyes)
And I don’t think I even know your name
(But I will always know your smile)

I’ll always be, I’ll always be
A slave of what I see
I’ll always find, I’ll always find
My life defined
I’ll always have, I’ll always have
An extra breath to take
I’ll always give, I’ll always give
The truth away

CHORUS

And this is what I always had
The things that make my life so mad
The things I’ve traded for my soul
And now I’m left to be accused
of trading goods I’ve never used
So guilty I will stand

I wanna find, I wanna find
The blood that turns to wine
I wanna prove, I wanna prove
I’m not a fool to believe
I wanna thank, I wanna thank
The pain that makes me real
I wanna drink, I wanna drink
The pain away

CHORUS

Fro's Theme

You’re living in my freezer baby
You’re living in my fridge
There’s no need to worry about your dedication to have control of my
Nights and days, and I spend nights spinning in a cold sweat swimming
I’ve drank too much again

I need to see you constantly baby
I’ve got a plan that’s all worked out
Just a little sip in the morning, three of four to take the edge off life so that I’m
Numb all day, forgetting about the distance apart from you
I’ve drank too much again

I wonder what this film is in my mouth
I think I found the end to life itself
The constant pounding of, a stampede in my head
I really wish that I was dead

I think our time together’s done
I need to find another one

If ever I could tell you, what it is to wake at dawn, and feel alive
And light up to the sunrise, yes light up in the open air, up to the sky

Give me a green leaf a bud to cheer me up...

Spend So Much Time

(Why do I spend so much time) sitting on my throne
(Why do I spend so much time) sitting all alone
(Why do I spend so much time) writing down my thoughts
(Why do I spend so much time) just tossing off

Every day I have a ritual, that I have to perform
Start the day with an empty head, clean from the night before
My body has a natural way, of letting go of pain
Releasing it to the alligators, in the subterranean

CHORUS

My brain is linked together, with something from behind
It seems to me that they are sharing the same mind
Don’t ask me anything, when I am deep in thought
I need to concentrate, on better things

CHORUS

INSTR.

Heartless Ground

Well I was just fourteen, when I realized
That the world goes round in a circular motion and never stops twice
So I set my sights, hey on a possible dream
Oh but my momma never told me when she kissed me goodnight
That to make your way you've got to live a hard life

It's a hard life
When you're living on heartless ground
It's a hard life
When you're living on heartless ground

Well I walked the streets, of my home town
Gettin' drunk with a friend singing Rolling Stones and falling down
Well we sat on a curb, and we shot the shit
About God and love and politics
And the meaning of life no we never found it

CHORUS

Don't forget this
We're dust to dust
