앨범 타이틀 만큼이나 중독적인 넘버들을 담고있는 스웨덴 출신 세계적인 일렉트로니카-트립합 뮤지션 Jay-Jay Johanson의 2000년 발매 통산 3번째 앨범. 부드러운 보컬, 반복적인 리프, 성가를 채용한 형식의 'Belie In Us', 헤비한 기타 리프와 변질된 음이 번갈아 교차되며 이질적인 분위기를 양산해 내고 있는 'Keep It A Secret', 흡사 Rarebird의 'Sympathy'를 듣는 듯한 착각을 가져오게 하는 'Anywhere Anytime', 드라마 [Queer As Folk]에 사용되기도 했던 'Suffering' 등이 수록된 트립합 계열의 필청작으로 전혀 손색이 없다. .... ....
She said it's over She said I want you no more Over your shoulder And out through that door She's turning colder And I'm growing unsure Nobody told her I've been through this before Ever since the day She said these words to me I've had a hard time Thinking logically
All I asked was Why can't you please explain For whatever reason You left me in this pain I just can't stand you anymore She said to me I really did appreciate Her honesty Even though it's not My habit to intrude I'm gonna find out Who's sleeping next to you
how could a love like ours come to an end we had it all but lost it 'round the bend there's something that i'll never understand why now it seems like hurting's close at hand
but i'm alone again, alone again though the years that pass divide us i am alone again, alone again something'll never keep us apart
there's one love left between us that will stay when memories can slowly fade away though feelings changed ever since we met our little daughter won't let us forget
but i'm alone again, alone again though the years that pass divide us i am alone again, alone again something'll always keep us close
i see her one weekend now and then i've realized i'm like a long lost friend she has your eyes, your funny little smile her lovely laugh brings you back for a while
but i'm alone again, alone again though the years that pass divide us i am alone again, alone again our little daughter keep us close
On a mountain up north I will build a small house Made of wood, stone and straw I'll let nobody in Neither family nor friends Nor the postman can come and This escape can't keep going on 'Cause I can't take it no more I'm not so strong I will sit there and stare When the ocean runs wild Until I'll forget your name Then I'll burn up the straw Take it down stone by stone And make a raft of the wood
Park the car, make it quick Wonderful, haggard girl Pale inspite scandinavian sun Freckled arms, freckled face Grasstained jeans, bruiced knees Delicate with sneekers on Undressed now, hidden in bush Scotchtight skin round vertebrae Clinging on to velvet leaves
Finished now, jump back in Red hot seat burns through skirt Just a kiss and we're on our way Anywhere anytime We'll be there Long before the others will
Underneath this surface exists A man with no strength to resist Lips are sealed unable to speak If you don't take these chains off me I hesitate too scared to believe Disregard the way I feel The time has come for you to decide Naked respect without denial How could I forgive and forget When you ignore and you regret
Silent words, full of despise There's no return, some things must die Humiliation I don't understand myself Humiliation I don't recognize myself anymore
Autumn is here inside my heart When there's springtime in the air Loneliness is tearing me apart Being lost makes me scared I keep on asking the gods above to send my love back to me Oh please let these days and weeks Pass by so quickly Nobody suffers like I do Nobody else, oh no Nobody suffers like I do Nobody else but you You had to leave, I know And we knew it would be tough You said you would be back soon Soon is not soon enough Through this waiting in vain All this darkness and pain I've been crying for you, now I'm dying When this test is at the end I hope you'll understand That you're all that I've got Oh darling
Poetry, painting and puzzles Occupied all of my life Until the day when I met you This changed Chemistry, cooking and cars Gave no time over for love But when I saw you I realized that Things can change Now when I'm safe and secure In peace at a harmless place Without surprises and action I'm getting bored Drama class, drinking and drugs Was close to breaking me down Now my priority's different I changed
Far away, once so close But now you're far away You're still here with me But not like yesterday, so far Far away, I hear you breathe But you're so far away Once so colourful But now all turns to grey, so far It's oh so strange When centimetres feels like miles Seconds like hours Now it's true love has died No more roads left to try, far away Far away, long ago When love was here to stay Now it's gone It doesn't matter what we say, so far Every word is like a knife But the silence cuts you twice
It's Saturday evening I sit by the phone Planning to call you 'Cause I'm all alone I hesitate even though I can't wait To hear your whispering words Is someone there with you Or are you asleep Have you gone out dancing Or nightshift this week I still hesitate even though I can't wait To hear your whispering words If you'd pick up the phone I would tell you The most beautiful words I know
If you'd answer now I would say it to you Over and over again Now I have the courage to give it a try I dial your number but it's occupied It's getting late and I still have to wait To hear your whispering words
