1985
In 1985, I placed a bet and lied, losing all that I had, at least with all my heart intact. In 1985, Orwell was proved right, Torville and Dean's bolero, redundant as a sad welsh chapel. In 1985, in 1985. So God is dead, like Nietzsche said, superstition is all we have left. Circle the wagons, we're under attack, we've realised there's no going back, we've realised there's no going back. In 1985, the Civil War failed why?, kept hidden like scars of birth, nature unable to soften the words. In 1985, my words they came alive, friends were made for life, Morrissey and Marr gave me choice. In 1985, in 1985. So God is dead, like Nietzsche said, only 16 years of age, he said. See all the tears, for the walking dead, we've realised there's no going back, we've realised there's no going back. In 1985, I placed a bet and lied, losing all that I had. |

Empty souls will leave their homes
To find a place where they're alone Rattling memories and hollow bones Leaves a taste so bitter and cold For empty souls will stand alone Shivering like black-eyed dogs Waiting to be taken home Where that is they only know Exposed to a truth we don't know Collapsing like the twin towers Falling down like April showers Colossal endless like a marathon God knows what makes the comparison God knows what makes the comparison For the empty souls - for the empty souls For empty souls they stand alone Shivering like black-eyed dogs Waiting to be taken home Where that is they only know Exposed to a truth we don't know Collapsing like the twin towers Falling down like April showers Colossal endless like a marathon God knows what makes the comparison God knows what makes the comparison For the empty souls - for the empty souls Colossal endless like a marathon God knows what makes the comparison God knows what makes the comparison For the empty souls - for the empty souls. |

And all the masks I carry on my face
For you, for another Some calm and then some grace But once within a long and broken night A face like mine, bereft of dreams and white This is a song, this is a song a song for a departure This is a song This is a song, this is a song a song to take you homewards This is a song Maybe this strangeness only ever was To hide ourselves from some kind of happiness But always the moment it just seems to stay Tearing it off like so many calendar days This is a song, this is a song a song for a departure This is a song This is a song, this is a song a song to break your heart to This is a song This is a song, this is a song a song for broken lovers This is a song This is a song, this is a song a song to take you homewards This is a song This is a song, this is a song a song to break your heart to This is a song |

I live to fall asleep
It's when I stop the hate I never want to dream It infiltrates beauty I live to fall asleep Regenerate and sin Skin so tense gives in I've lived enough to kill When did you become another distant friend Everyone who loved you stayed waited till the end When did you become another distant friend Everyone who loved you stayed waited till the end Oh, when did you decide that sleep could save your life How could you become another boy struck dumb How could you become another boy struck dumb with love I live to fall asleep I live to fall asleep I live to fall asleep it helps me through the day Drink has never dulled a pain so deep does run I live to fall asleep serene alone happy Holding on to screams waiting for the time When did you become another distant friend Everyone who loved you stayed waited till the end When did you become another distant friend Everyone who loved you stayed waited till the end Oh, when did you decide that sleep could save your life How could you become another boy struck dumb How could you become another boy struck dumb with love I live to fall asleep I live to fall asleep So lazy, lazy, lazy Chuck down all the pills Needing to remember how and why to live Oh, when did you decide that sleep could save your life How could you become another boy struck dumb How could you become another boy struck dumb with love I live to fall asleep I live to fall asleep |

When the disappearing begins
The ghosts we kept within Can break free from inside And untie our blindfold eyes To repel ghosts To repel ghosts... So when the ghosts find you Be careful but be graceful For all will be revealed When ghosts become set free A soul in pain has no image to reclaim To repel ghosts To repel ghosts A soul in pain has no image to reclaim To repel ghosts To repel ghosts Build bridges and not roads Make love, make hate, make war A soul in pain has no image to reclaim To repel ghosts To repel ghosts A soul in pain has no image to reclaim To repel ghosts To repel ghosts |

Emily, Emily your gift to me
Emily, a modern sense of beauty Emily, as precious as your memory A simple word called liberty The relics, the ghosts, all down so many roads The relics, the ghosts, all down so many roads Emily, so pity poor Emily You've been replaced by charity It's what you forget, what you forget that kills you It's what you remember, what you remember that makes you We used to have answers, now we have only questions But now have no direction The relics, the ghosts, all down so many roads The relics, the ghosts, all down so many roads Emily, so pity poor Emily You've been replaced by charity It's what you forget, what you forget that kills you It's what you remember, what you remember that makes you We used to have answers, now we have only questions But now have no direction |

When did life get so, get so complicated
When did time start, start accelerating Make life slower Stop life growing If we can still fall in love If we can still fall in love Embrace with us - make your own glasnost And in defeat, cling to these words so clear Humiliations not easily understood Onto the future Such messages are burned If we can still fall in love If we can still fall in love Embrace with us - make your own glasnost If we can still fall in love If we can still fall in love Embrace with us - make your own glasnost If we can still fall in love If we can still fall in love Embrace with us - make your own glasnost |

Solitude sometimes is
The place that I would like to live Solitude sometimes is When nothing really seems to fit If black were truly black not grey It might provide some depth to pray To black out all the worlds of men And demons too, but not even then Solitude sometimes is Solitude sometimes is Life that no longer exists Solitude sometimes is When there's nothing left to give If black were truly black not grey It might provide some depth to pray To black out all the worlds of men And demons too, but not even then Solitude sometimes is Drop your bombs on all I see Leave this world alone for me The thing I need to hide behind It reigns beneath my holy skies If black were truly black not grey It might provide some depth to pray To black out all the worlds of men And demons too, but not even then Solitude sometimes is Solitude sometimes is... |

Strung out eyes as cold as worship
Two minutes silence in a century of screams Tiny massive hands, emphatic lonely soul Skin against skin and blood against blood This is the place where peace exists This is the place where my mind resists The fragments fail to hold me The fragments fail to hold me... When there's time I'll read your words There's no point disguising You're the one who's hurt Laid bloody and bare to see The effects will fail to desert me This is the place where peace exists This is the place where my mind resists The fragments fail to hold me The fragments fail to hold me... This is the place where my mind resists The fragments fail to hold me The fragments fail to hold me.. |

If the love between us has faded away
Left in the rain, scratching at the stains The paralysed future The past sideways scrawl I must give up on this It makes no sense at all Makes no sense at all In the Cardiff afterlife In the Cardiff afterlife We sense the breaking of our lives In the Cardiff afterlife In the Cardiff afterlife And yet I kept my silence Your memory is still mine No I will not share them Acquaintance through denial For I witnessed splendour And evil that no-one saw And I felt kindness And vanity for sure And vanity for sure In the Cardiff afterlife In the Cardiff afterlife We sensed the breaking of our lives In the Cardiff afterlife In the Cardiff afterlife In the Cardiff afterlife In the Cardiff afterlife We sensed the making of our lives In the Cardiff afterlife In the Cardiff |
