I know a girl who’s like a sea I watch her changing every day for me Oh yeah, oh One day she’s still, the next she swells You can hear the universe in her sea shells Oh yeah, oh No, no line on the horizon No, no line I know a girl with a hole in her heart She said infinity’s a great place to start Oh “Time is irrelevant, it’s not linear” Then she put her tongue in my ear Oh, oh No, no line on the horizon No, no line No, no line on the horizon No, no line Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh The songs in your head are now on my mind You put me on pause I try to rewind, love, and replay Every night I have the same dream I’m hatching some plot, scheming some scheme Oh yeah Oh I’m a traffic cop, Rue du Marais The sirens are wailing But it’s me that wants to get away Oh |

Magnificent Oh, magnificent I was born I was born to be with you In this space and time After that and ever after I haven`t had a clue Only to break rhyme This foolishness can leave a heart Black and blue Only love Only love can leave such a mark But only love Only love can heal such a scar I was born I was born to sing for you I didn’t have a choice But to lift you up And sing whatever song you wanted me to I give you back my voice From the womb my first cry It was a joyful noise Oh, oh Only love Only love can leave such a mark But only love Only love can heal such a scar Justified till we die You and I will magnify Oh, the magnificent Magnificent Only love Only love can leave such a mark But only love Only love unites our hearts Justified till we die You and I will magnify Oh, the magnificent Magnificent Magnificent |

I tied myself with wire To let the horses run free Playing with the fire Till the fire played with me The stone was semi-precious We were barely conscious Two souls too smart to be In the realm of certainty Even on our wedding day We set ourselves on fire Oh God, do not deny her It’s not if I believe in love But if love believes in me Oh, believe in me At the moment of surrender I folded to my knees I did not notice the passers-by And they did not notice me I’ve been in every black hole At the altar of the dark star My body’s now a begging bowl That’s begging to get back Begging to get back to my heart To the rhythm of my soul To the rhythm of my unconsciousness To the rhythm that yearns To be released from control I was punching in the numbers At the ATM machine I could see in the reflection A face staring back at me At the moment of surrender Of vision over visibility I did not notice the passers-by And they did not notice me I was speeding on the subway Through the stations of the cross Every eye looking every other way Counting down ’til the pain will stop At the moment of surrender Of vision of over visibility I did not notice the passers-by And they did not notice me Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh |

Sunshine, sunshine Sunshine, sunshine Oh, oh Oh, oh I was lost between the midnight and the dawning In a place of no consequence or company 3:33 when the numbers fell off the clock face Speed-dialing with no signal at all Go, shout it out, rise up Oh, oh Escape yourself and gravity Hear me, cease to speak that I may speak Shush now Oh, oh Force quit and move to trash I was right there at the top of the bottom On the edge of the known universe Where I wanted to be I had driven to the scene of the accident And I sat there waiting for me Restart and re-boot yourself You’re free to go Oh, oh Shout for joy if you get the chance Password, you, enter here, right now Oh, oh You know your name so punch it in Hear me, cease to speak that I may speak Shush now Oh, oh Then don’t move or say a thing |

She’s a rainbow and she loves the peaceful life Knows I’ll go crazy if I don’t go crazy tonight There’s a part of me in the chaos that’s quiet And there’s a part of you that wants me to riot Everybody needs to cry or needs to spit Every sweet tooth needs just a little hit Every beauty needs to go out with an idiot How can you stand next to the truth and not see it Oh, a change of heart comes slow It’s not a hill, it’s a mountain As you start out the climb Do you believe me or are you doubting We’re gonna make it all the way to the light But I know I’ll go crazy if I don’t go crazy tonight Every generation gets a chance to change the world Pity the nation that won’t listen to your boys and girls ‘Cos the sweetest melody is the one we haven’t heard Is it true that perfect love drives out all fear The right to appear ridiculous is something I hold dear Oh, but a change of heart comes slow It’s not a hill, it’s a mountain As you start out the climb Listen for me, I’ll be shouting We’re gonna make it all the way to the light But you now I’ll go crazy if I don’t go crazy tonight Baby, baby, baby I know I’m not alone Baby, baby, baby I know I’m not alone Oh oh oh It’s not a hill, it’s a mountain As we start out the climb Listen for me, I’ll be shouting Shouting to the darkness Squeeze out sparks of light You know we’re gonna go crazy You know we’ll go crazy You know we’ll go crazy if we don’t go crazy tonight Oh, slowly now Oh, be slow |

Where I came from there were no hills at all The land was flat, the highway straight and wide My brother and I would drive for hours Like we had years instead of days Our faces as pale as the dirty snow Once I knew there was a love divine Then came a time I thought it knew me not Who can forgive forgiveness where forgiveness is not Only the lamb as white as snow And the water, it was icy As it washed over me And the moon shone above me Now this dry ground, it bears no fruit at all Only poppies laugh under the crescent moon The road refuses strangers The land, the seeds we sow Where might we find the lamb as white as snow As boys we would go hunting in the woods To sleep the night shooting out the stars Now the wolves are every passing stranger Every face we cannot know If only a heart could be as white as snow If only a heart could be as white as snow |

16th of June, nine-oh-five, door bell rings Man at the door says if I want to stay alive a bit longer There’s a few things I need you to know Three Coming from a long line of Traveling sales people on my mother’s side I wasn’t gonna buy just anyone’s cockatoo So why would I invite a complete stranger into my home Would you These days are better than that These days are better than that Every day I die again, and again I’m reborn Every day I have to find the courage To walk out into the street With arms out Got a love you can’t defeat Neither down nor out There’s nothing you have that I need I can breathe Breathe now 16th of June, Chinese stocks are going up And I’m coming down with some new Asian virus Ju Ju man, Ju Ju man Doc says you’re fine, or dying Please Nine-oh-nine, St. John Divine on the line, my pulse is fine But I’m running down the road like loose electricity While the band in my head plays a striptease The roar that lies on the other side of silence The forest fire that is fear so deny it Walk out into the street Sing your heart out The people we meet Will not be drowned out There’s nothing you have that I need I can breathe Breathe now Yeah, yeah We are people borne of sound The songs are in our eyes Gonna wear them like a crown Walk out, into the sunburst street Sing your heart out, sing my heart out I’ve found grace inside a sound I found grace, it’s all that I found And I can breathe Breathe now |

Yesterday I spent asleep Woke up in my clothes in a dirty heap Spent the night trying to make a deadline Squeezing complicated lives into a simple headline I have your face here in an old Polaroid Tidying the children’s clothes and toys You’re smiling back at me I took the photo from the fridge Can’t remember what then we did I haven’t been with a woman, it feels like for years Thought of you the whole time, your salty tears This shitty world sometimes produces a rose The scent of it lingers and then it just goes Return the call to home The worst of us are a long drawn out confession The best of us are geniuses of compression You say you’re not going to leave the truth alone I’m here ‘cos I don’t want to go home Child drinking dirty water from the river bank Soldier brings oranges he got out from a tank I’m waiting on the waiter, he’s taking a while to come Watching the sun go down on Lebanon Return the call to home Now I’ve got a head like a lit cigarette Unholy clouds reflecting in a minaret You’re so high above me, higher than everyone Where are you in the cedars of Lebanon Choose your enemies carefully ‘cos they will define you Make them interesting ‘cos in some ways they will mind you They’re not there in the beginning but when your story ends Gonna last with you longer than your friends |
