He lives his life in a world full of women
And he takes what he wants from their love And he throws the rest away I cling to him and pray But still he slips away And now it's just too late To wish him back again She won't put up with this life so she leaves him And she finds someone else, falls in love And she travels far away I say that it's ok And swallow all my pain And now it's just too late To wish her back again They left me here on my own in a nightmare And I just can't forgive any more So I smile and turn away Don't listen when they say They wish that I could stay And now it's just too late To wish me back again |

Tiny children on their own, they learn so fast How to make new friends, how to play their new games I remember a man he had shiny hair Always hanging around when you went away Little eight year old, she knows too many secrets Much too young to understand what it means I remember a woman with silver hair And the smell and the taste of the bed we shared And that's how I behaved Every time that you went away And now, though I'm older nothing's changed (playing the same games) And I knew every day Came a chance that you'd leave me So I found what I could to take your place Told me not to cry Said that I'd survive As he waved goodbye And I want to try Not to make you cry Want us to survive Never say goodbye But that's how I behave when you go away Because though I'm older nothing's changed (playing the same games) And I know every day There's a chance that you'll leave me So I find what I can to take your place |

I'm not interested in what you have to say
You're just a vacant space Other people's lives upon which you prey it's a permanent disgrace Why do you think you know what's best for me What I should and shouldn't do Why do you judge my history And tell me to improve in the confines of your mind You think we're all the same I've left them all behind Though you wish I hadn't in finding fault in others I can't see What you have to gain I know that you get pleasure from Other people's pain You're not so perfect and I realise the scene That you're all coming from When you say you care I know what you mean You're really lying All the people around here Love to hear about a fall They all surface and disappear In an instant in the confines of your mind You think we're all the same, I've left them all behind Through you wish I hadn't |

Silly girl I run around and never know my reasons
And though you're laughing with me I know what you say about me I can't explain It's not your business anyway So don't say you understand And don't pretend you're on my side And I remember when you hated her for sleeping next to him I see your smiling face but I know you've done worse than me You hypocrite Don't talk to me cos you're not fit to know me So don't pretend that you could've ever been a friend And still I'm sure you think it's OK what you've done to me Cos I'm so bad to him Don't even try to hide behind that stupid lie I know your kind and I know where your loyalties lie Silly girls we run around and never know our reasons And though I understand I guess I say that you betrayed me I'm a hypocrite I dish it out but I can't take it I know You think its wrong but maybe you're right but this is my song And still I'm sure you think that it's OK what she did to me Cos I'm so bad to him Dont even try to hide behind that stupid smile I know our kind, and I know where our loyalties lie |

You are the one In your concrete arms I adore you Dirty and dear Block out the sun In your twists and turns I invade You show me no fear We blow around like tiny leaves in a big storm Finding there's nothing left to breathe or to keep warm You ebb and flow and your rhythm beats my head Leave me alone while you swallow up your dead You are the one You cradle me and kill Caressing my face Leave me undone You suffocate and have me This is the place Every door conceals a dream and a nightmare Nothing is ever really pure in the stale air And when it's dark everything becomes more clear Lie in the park when I want to have you near You are the one In your concrete arms I adore you Dusty and dear Block out the sun In your twists and turns I invade You show me no fear Left it unsung I shall leave but I'll return Poison my lungs, my blood is full of lead Things unsaid My love for you still burns |

It's raining in this room And it's so hot outside this room I don't know no one here I don't want to be here In this room We hold parties in our sleep We fill ourselves up in our sleep And I'll heal you when you're ill Though it's hard keeping still In our sleep Pries the hair out of her mouth Whilst the circus is heading south While we search in the sand Don't ask them to understand Why they cover up their hands And their mouths |

Oooh
Outside you are waiting for me, hiding You catch me when I am Needing a friend to hold You can soothe me, lie above me Press hard Then you strike And I think that I'll die 'Cause I can't breathe, can't breathe Please let me start screaming Please let me start screaming Please let me start screaming Oooh Please let me start screaming Eyes are open seeing nothing Hands are tied and I can't function Please let me start screaming Please let me start screaming Please let me start screaming Please let me start screaming Please let me start screaming |

So you want to be alone
Run and hide inside your home Watch you fall away from me Sinking into misery Taste your smile and hold my hand Make you laugh and make you dance I remember this Everything was in our kiss Sink my hands into the sea Reach your fingers up to me Trust me one more time I can only try Throw yourself to me And I'll try to pull you free Let me try to pull you free Let me try to pull you free Let me try to pull you free Let me try to pull you free Let me try to pull you free Let me try to pull you free Let me try to pull you free |

Only children sometimes comprehend
Loneliness can often be a friend Have to shut yourself in Don't know how to begin Telling it to someone Who doesn't fit in I am sunken in biology I cannot control that part of me I don't want to hurt you But I know I will do Maybe we could find out What are we to do I don't have long fingernails to use Would we care if we were black and blue? We're both sick but still you hold my hand We're together but I understand Walk along the seaside This is not a joyride Tell me in the meantime It's ok |

You feel like I do Like the whole world's forgotten you And your life is so dull and predictable Your room seems like a cell And you don't sleep very well And your friends only talk to point and to mock And to ridicule One day things won't seem the same way, I know Morning in the mirror Things will suddenly seem much clearer I promise, it's alright His words don't flatter me And they're printed for all to see I don't care, he's not there It's all history The future's yours to hold And you're really not very old And your life is so white, so clean and so bright And holds mystery Morning in the mirror Things will suddenly seem much clearer I promise it's alright One day things won't seem the same way, I know One day things won't seem the same way, I know One day things won't seem the same way, I know |

Walking at midnight In the darkness, alone Standing in the shadows And I'm watching your glow Standing in the red light And I'm smiling at you Dreaming of the starlight Just waiting for you I'll do anything to Make you mine, make me shine Take me if you want me I don't care, I don't mind I want your starlight Make it mine, make me shine Touch me with your light And I'll burn like a star |

If you walked in now I wouldn't start I wouldn't frown And if you just appeared I wouldn't cry or think it weird 'cause you are still around You're in the air, you're in the ground And you can't go away I am afraid you're here to stay Friends don't understand They close the door, they raise their hands She says she heard your voice Of course she does, she has no choice I was hours ahead When they removed you from your bed They drank all the while Until you said goodbye Why are we sitting here in ourselves? Why are we sitting here in ourselves? Why are we sitting here in ourselves? I don't look up, I don't look down I look ahead and make no sound My love was there, I only stare Healthy in my dreams Is what you are, is what is seems What does it all mean? You're only hiding behind a screen Curse the English day For what it forces us to say Banish all the pain 'cause when I die, die I'll see you again. |
