And something warm and soft just passed through here
It took the precious things that I hold dearer It rifled through the grey and disappeared The creeping darkness makes the small hours clearer Like a cancer scare In the dentist's chair Sucking in the air Wire across the stair Kicking down the door At your local store With the world at war Voices through the floor Unexpected news Wearing high heeled shoes Blowing out the fuse Paying all your dues Deadwing lullaby Like a fracture tied It's a worthless lie To the public eye I don't take waifs and strays back home with me My bleeding heart does not extend to charity Yes I'd have to say I like my privacy And did you know you're on closed circuit TV? So smile at me And a dream you had Of your mum and dad On a beach somewhere And the poison air With the cancer threat In a cigarette Deadwing lullaby Find a place to hide And from the yellow windows of the last train A spectre from the next life breathes his fog on the pane I look with you into the speeding black rain Afraid to touch someone, afraid to ask her for her name And in the morning when I find I have lost you I throw a window open wide and step through |

I don't remember
Did something in my past, create a hole. Don't use your gender. To drive a stake right through my soul. I live to function, On my own is all I know. No friends to mention, No destruction, nowhere to go Shallow, shallow, Give it to me, give into me Scissors cutting out your anger Shallow, shallow, No good to me, not if you bleed Bite your tongue ignore the splinter This city drains me, Maybe it's the smell of gasoline. The millions pain me, It's easier to talk to my PC. I live to function, On my own is all I know. No friends to mention, No destruction, nowhere to go Shallow, shallow, Give into me, give into me Seasons caught in a triangle, Shallow, shallow, No good to me, not if you bleed, Bite your tongue end on a splinter Shallow, shallow, Give into me, give into me Seasons caught in a triangle Shallow, shallow, No good to me, not if you bleed Bite your tongue end on a splinter |

As the cheerless towns pass my window
I can see a washed out moon through the fog And then a voice inside my head breaks the analogue And says "Follow me down to the valley below You know Moonlight is bleeding from out of your soul" I survived against the will of my twisted folk But in the deafness of my world the silence broke And said "Follow me down to the valley below You know Moonlight is bleeding from out of your soul" "My David don't you worry This cold world is not for you So rest your head upon me I have strength to carry you" (Ghosts of the twenties rising Golden summers just holding you) "Follow me down to the valley below You know Moonlight is bleeding from out of your soul Come to us Lazarus It's time for you to go" |

Never stop the car on a drive in the dark
Never look for the truth in your mother's eyes Never trust the sound of rain upon a river rushing Through your ears Arriving somewhere but not here Could you imagine the final sound as a gun Or the smashing windscreen of a car? Did you ever imagine the last thing you'd hear as you're fading out Was a song? Arriving somewhere but not here [Chorus:] All my designs, simplified And all of my plans, compromised And all of my dreams, sacrificed Ever had the feeling you've been here before? Drinking down the poison the way you were taught Ever thought from here on in your life begins And all you knew was wrong? Arriving somewhere but not here All my designs, simplified And all of my plans, compromised And all of my dreams... Did you see the redness block your part? Did the scissors cut a way to your heart? Did you feel the end before the suns of mothers Tearing you apart? Arriving somewhere but not here |

A tiny flame inside my head
A compromise I never planned Unravel out the finest trends And I'm looking at a blank page now Should have filled it up with words somehow I whispered something in her ear I'd bear my soul but she don't hear The scratching of a mellotron It always seemed to make her cry Well maybe she remembers us collecting space up in the sky The scratching of a mellotron It always seemed to make her cry (Nothing rises from ? fingertips, heart it slips) I lay her gently on my clove She will leave me, yes I know And I'm looking at a blank page now Should have filled it up with words somehow The scratching of a mellotron It always seemed to make her cry Well maybe she remembers us collecting space up in the sky The scratching of a mellotron It always seemed to make her cry (Nothing rises from ? fingertips, heart it slips) Well maybe she remembers us collecting space up in the sky (Nothing rises from ? fingertips, heart it slips) Don't look back into Don't let the memory or the sound drag you down Don't look back into Don't let the memory or the sound drag you down Don't look back into Don't let the memory or the sound drag you down Don't look back into Don't let the memory or the sound drag you down Don't look back into Don't let the memory or the sound drag you down Don't look back into Don't let the memory or the sound drag you down Don't look back into Don't let the memory or the sound drag you down |

Nothing like this
Felt in her kiss Cannot resist her Fell for her charm ? her arms I keep a photograph Give me a glimpse Let me come in Be there inside her Here it begins Here is the sin Something to lie about You think you're smart I think you art We agree on this It doesn't work Feeling like dirt Feeling like you don't care We get a room And in her gloom She lights a cigarette Clothes on the bed "Love me," she said I loose myself to her I'm getting feelings I'm hiding too well Bury the heart-shaped shell Something broke inside my stomach I let the pieces lie just where they fell Being with you is hell Hair blown in an open car Summer dress slips down her arm Hair blown in an open car Okay what's next? After the sex What do we do now? Finding the time Drawing the line And never crossing it Gave her the hours Gave her the power Cannont erase her Gave her the truth Gave her the proof I gave her everything I'm getting feelings I'm hiding too well Bury the heart-shaped shell (I had the feelings [inaudible]) Something broke inside my stomach I let the pieces lie just where they fell (I left the pieces where they fell) Being with you is hell Hair blown in an open car Summer dress slips down her arm Hair blown in an open car On a drive out to the mall Hair blown in an open car Hair blown in an open car Summer dress slips down your arm Hair blown in an open car |

Feeling are you touching?
Feeling are you blind? Feeling are you touching? Feeling all your love Seen it though a windscreen Seen it through the clouds Seen it in a pantry Seen it in your heart Feeling are you touching? Feeling all your love Feeling are you touching? Feeling all your love |

You move in waves You never retrace Your newest craze Straight out of the Face by the bed unread I'm left behind Like all the others Some fall for you It doesn't make much difference if they do She changes every time you look By summer it was all gone - now she's moved on She called you every other day So savour it it's all gone - now she's moved on So for a while Everything seemed new Did we connect ? Or was it all just biding time for you ? |
