You're as tired as a hunter's trap Hiden well What are you concealing Poker face carved in stone Amongst friends but all alone Why do you hide Say something, say something Anything I've shown you everything Give me a sign Say something, say something Anything You silence is deafening Hey me in kind Take a drug to set you free Strange fruit from a forbidding tree You've got to come down soon More than a drug is what I need Need a change of scenery Need a new life Say something, say something Anything I've shown you everything Give me a sign Say something, say something Anything You silence is deafening Hey me in kind Say something, say something Anything I've shown you everything Give me a sign I'm open Wide open Wondering Have you swallowed everything Hey me in kind
Help comes when you need it most I'm cured for laughter Mood swings not sure I can cope My life's in plaster (in plaster)
May your mind set you free (Opened by the wonderful) May your heart lead you on May your mind let you breathe all of disaster (Opened by the wonderful) May your heart lead you on
These wounds are all self-imposed Life's no disaster, disaster All roads lead unto death-row Who knows what's after?
May your mind be wide open May your heart beat strong May your mind's will be broken By this heart-felt song May your mind set you free (Be opened by the wonderful) May your heart lead you on May your mind let you breathe all of disaster (Be opened by the wonderful) May your heart lead you on, may your heart lead you on May your eyes let you see all of disaster May your heart lead you on, lead you on (May your eyes be opened by the wonderful)
Set you free (May your heart lead you on) Lead you on
There's a storm outside, and the gap between crack and thunder Crack and thunder, is closing in, is closing in The rain floods gutters, and makes a great sound on the concrete On a flat roof, there's a boy leaning against the wall of rain Aerial held high, calling "come on thunder, come on thunder"
Sometimes, when I look deep in your eyes, I swear I can see your soul Sometimes, when I look deep in your eyes, I swear I can see your soul
It's a monsoon, and the rain lifts lids off cars Spinning buses like toys, stripping them to chrome Across the bay, the waves are turning into something else Picking up fishing boats and spewing them on the shore
The boy is hit, lit up against the sky, like a sign, like a neon sign And he crumples, drops into the gutter, legs twitching The flood swells his clothes and delivers him on, delivers him on
Sometimes, when I look deep in your eyes, I swear I can see your soul Sometimes, when I look deep in your eyes, I swear I can see your soul
There's four new colors in the rainbow An old man's taking polaroids But all he captures is endless rain, endless rain He says listen, takes my head and puts my ear to his And I swear I can hear the sea
Somtimes, when I look in your eyes I can see your soul (I can touch your soul ) (I can reach your soul) Sometimes
This bed is on fire With passionate love The neighbours complain about the noises above But she only comes when she's on top
My therapist said not to see you no more She said you're like a disease without any cure She said I'm so obsessed that I'm becoming a bore, oh no Ah, you think you're so pretty
Caught your hand inside the till Slammed your fingers in the door Fought with kitchen knives and skewers Dressed me up in women's clothes Messed around with gender roles Lined my eyes and call me pretty
Moved out of the house, so you moved next door I locked you out, you cut a hole in the wall I found you sleeping next to me, I thought I was alone You're driving me crazy, when are you coming home
You may say I am cynical, but I say man is flawed He has a vague memory of before some fall Behaving like a reptile, but talks of walking tall If god is in his image, the almighty must be small
God only knows
Swaggart has been caught with his trousers round his knees After damning me and you to hell for eternity Sex and power and money is the prayer of these priests They bribe their way past heaven's gates and steal a set of keys
God only knows
My guru has been sleeping with adepts and with sheep While I was fucking celibate, self-righteous in belief Yesterday he was god, now he is a creep We fell upon each other starving for belief
God only knows
I speak in the name of god I speak in the name of that white haired old man in the clouds Always a man Dispensing lightening justice from his fingertips Watching you every second of the day Just waiting for you to fuck up I speak in the name of God I'm his intermediary I'm a Mollah, I'm a Priest, I'm a Vicar If you want to go to God You have to come through me
Is heaven full, oh lord, of these babbling preachers and God-fearing biggots All these sef-rightious, self-appointed prophets because if so:- I know where I'd rather be Away from this cacophony Away from this cacophony God only knows God only knows God only knows
Drifting through the atmosphere Through the afterglow Witnessing one thousand lives Are blown, where the wind blows
Falling in between the lines Never fitting in Someone tells me what’s my crime Too thin I’m too thin
Due to come back down due to come back down Don’t wanna, don’t wanna land Due to come back down, due to come back down I don’t wanna, don’t wanna land Don’t wanna, don’t wanna, land Land Land
This time I’ve a starring role Hide the shape I’m in I’m too old to sacrifice for gold, and skin For gold And skin For gold For gold
Down, don’t want to come back down, don’t want to land Down, don’t want to come down, down don’t want to land Down, don’t want to come down, down don’t want to land Down, don’t want to come down, down don’t want to land
Drifting through the atmosphere Floating through this land Sifting through one thousand years Of sand All sand
Drifting through the atmosphere Floating through this land Sifting through one thousand years Of sand All sand
Drifting through the atmosphere Floating through this land Sifting through one thousand years Of sand All sand
I'm so alone tonight My bed feels larger than when I was small Lost in memories, lost in all the sheets and old pillows So alone tonight, miss you more than I will let you know Miss the outline of your back, miss you breathing down my neck All out to get you, once again They're all out to get you, once again
Insecure, what you gonna do Feel so small, they could step on you Called you up, answer machine, when the human touch Is what I need, what I need, what I need, what I need.. what I need is you I need you
Looked in the mirror, I don't know who I am any more The face is familiar, but the eyes, the eyes give it all away They're all out to get you, once again, they're all out to get you Here they come again....
Insecure, what you gonna do Feel so small, they could step on you Called you up, answer machine, when the human touch Is what I need, what I need, what I need What I need, what I need, what I need is you... (What I need)...
If you let me breathe, if you let me breathe They're all out to get you, once again, they're all out to get you To get you, once again
This songs made up, made second rate Cosmetic music, powderpuff Pop tunes, false rhymes, all lightweight bluffs Second-hand ideas, no soul, no hate Wasn't mean to be Built on complacency The nightmares ride away When you refuse to play Oh go and read a book It's so much more worth while Being a song-smith crook Study death in style Death in style This language used is all worn out A walking corpse that won't play dead Disease dragged on from bed to bed Pay for your twist, paid for shout Wasn't meant to be Built on complacency Open your eyes and see That lie is not for we Raise a rope and a knife Cut it out - the lie I don't want to decay Take the short cut away Oh go and read a book It's so much more worthwhile Being a song-smith crook Study death in style Study death in style Heard you calling through the drumbeat Answered with sticks and bones Scream, shout, and dance about the campfire You can hear the question, can you feel the reply? Heard you calling through the drumbeat Heard you calling through the drumbeat Can you hear the question, feel the reply? Can you hear the question, feel the reply? Hymn from a village The hymn from a village
Ladies and gentlemen, here's my disease Give me a standing ovation and your sympathy Poor old Johnny Yen set himself on fire again
See the jeaned genie on his high-wire act At the back of his mind lies a suicide pact Poor old Johnny Yen set himself on fire again
See the young men itching to burn Waiting for their own star turn Needing danger, a war would do If they can't let it out, they'll pick on you Poor old Johnny Yen set himself on fire again
See Houdini and his underwater tricks You were sitting at the front, hoping his locks would stick Watch Knievel hit the 17th bus You got crushed in the souvenir rush Poor old Johnny Yen set himself on fire again
I said poor old Johnny Yen set himself on fire again See the young men itching to burn Waiting for their own star turn Needing danger, a war would do If they can't let it out, they'll pick on you Poor old Johnny Yen set himself on fire again
Ladies and gentlemen, here's my disease Give me a standing ovation and your sympathy
Come on, somebody, finish him off please Put the poor fool out of his misery, will you Can't you see he's had enough? Finish him off, somebody
All this frustration I can't meet all my desires Strange conversation Self control has just expired All an illusion Only in my head you don't exist Who are you foolin' Don't need a shrink or an exorcist
La la la la la, la la la la la La la la la la, la la la la la la
Show me the movie Of who you are and where you're from Born of frustration Caught upon the webs you spun Where's the confusion A vision of what life is like Show me the movie That doesn't deal in black and white
Stop stop talkin 'bout who's to blame But all that counts is how to change Stop stop talkin 'bout who's to blame When all that counts is how to change
La la la la la, la la la la la La la la la la, la la la la la la
All this frustration All this frustration Who put brown owl eyes on a butterfly's wings All this frustration All this frustration Who gave the leopard spots and taught the birds to sing Born of frustration Born of frustration
I'm living in the weeds where nothing is the way it seems Where no one is who they need to be Where nothing seems that real to me 'Bout time we filled our lives Upon the walls of gold no solid ground The world is spinnin' endlessly We're clinging to our own beliefs Born of frustration Born of frustration
Ring ring the bells Wake the town Everyone is sleeping Shout at the crowd Wake them up This anger’s deeper than sleep
Got to keep awake to what is happening I can’t see a thing through my ambition, I no longer feel my God is watching over me Got to tell the world we’ve all been dreaming This is not the end, a new beginning I no longer feel my God is watching over me ...
Break break the code Concentrate Let the doors swing open See through all your walls All your floors Now you’re in deeper than sleep
Got to keep awake to what is happening I can’t see a thing through my ambition, I no longer feel my God is watching over me Got to tell the world we’ve all been dreaming This is not the end, a new beginning I no longer feel my God is watching over me ...
When you let me fall Grew my own wings Now I’m as tall as the sky When you let me drown Grew gills and fins Now I’m as deep as the sea When you let me die My spirit’s free There’s nothing challenging me ...
The view from here's breathtaking My visions all surrounding The humans look like insects There is only one way down But it's cold and lonely in this stratosphere Gliding through the darkness Where is my craft leading to Am I damned or blessed? Don't let go on top of the world Don't let go on top of the world Will my good friends desert me Or will they prove themselves? Are my demands all greedy Or are they what I need? If I will not be faithful I must accept betrayal When your turn comes to leave me Will my free ways have failed? Don't let go on top of the world Don't let go on top of the world I'll meet you inside this hollow world I'll meet you inside Hollow world, hollow world It's a long way down It's a long way down And I'm so cold
Ape your father's sins, your mother's mood swings To perfection Fall into a spin, shed another skin Strip away all your protection
Laugh at the wonder of it all Laugh so loud you break the fall And you see the gathering clouds Cry at the sadness of the world Cry so long you break its cold And you hear the gathering sounds
Do everything you fear In this there's power Fear is not to be afraid of
Laugh at the wonder of it all Laugh so loud you break your fall And you hear the gathering sounds
Come, dip on in Leave your bones, leave your skin Leave your past, leave your craft Leave your suffering heart
Break my shape In light I trust None exists Save space and dust None exists Just lights in time Space divides the borderline The borderline
Space between And space inside My four walls My shape defines Space defines
You've got to get over yourself You've got to get out of the frame Got to learn to see yourself A total stranger You've got to get out of the frame Get yourself a brand new name Got to learn to see yourself A total stranger
It's a shock to my system To wind up back where I have come from It's a crime in my child's eyes To find out life is in my mind
You've got to get over yourself You've got to get out of the frame Got to learn to see yourself A total stranger You've got to get out of the frame Get yourself a brand new name Got to learn to see yourself A total stranger
It's a shock to my system To wind back where I have come from It's a crime to my child's eyes To find out life's disguise
Oh no All gone All gone Nothing to hold me down No All gone I'm gone Nothing to hold me down No All gone I'm gone Nothing to hold me down No I'm gone I'm gone Nothing to hold me down ...
Calling, calling, calling You could see through me Calling, calling, calling You could see through me Calling, calling
It's that time again when I lose my friends Go walkabout, I've got the bends from pressure This is a testing time when the choice is mine Am I a fool for love or foolish for desire You can throw him out you can spit on him Call what he does a sin if it makes you feel better
And I can't believe you're all I'll ever need And I need to feel that you're not holding me And the way I feel just makes me want to scream Come home, come home, come home Come home, come home, come home
After thirty years I've become my fears I've become the kind of man I always hated I am pulled apart, and my swollen heart Has flipped out of the pan into the fire I am in love insane with a sense of shame That I threw stones at the condemned and Now I'm slated
And I don't believe you're all I'll ever need And I need to feel that you're not holding me And the way I feel just makes me want to scream Come home, come home, come home Come home, come home, come home Come home, come home, come home
I'll sing myself to sleep A song from the darkest hour Secrets I can't keep Inside of the day Swing from high to deep Extremes of sweet and sour Hope that god exists I hope I pray
Drawn by the undertow My life is out of control I believe this wave will bear my weight So let it flow
Chorus : Oh sit down ( X3 ) Sit down next to me Sit down, down, down, down, down In sympathy
Now I'm relieved to hear That you've been to some far out places It's hard to carry on When you feel all alone Now I've swung back down again It's worse than it was before If I hadn't seen such rishes I could live with being poor
Chorus
Those who feel the breath of sadness Sit down next to me Those who find the're touched by madness Sit down next to me Those who find themselves ridiculous Sit down next to me In love, in fear, in hate, in tears...
