She Sings The Mourning
Down to the glen where the roses twine Lie in the grass, watch the time go by The humdrum mid afternoon sun Only his mother's only son Black jack tarmac, dirt dust track Sister's certain wrapped in rags Whispers words of schemes Steal a smile from the scorpion's dreams She sings the mourning She sings the mourning She sings the mourning in the quiet night She said don't worry She said don't worry She said don't worry, we're out of sight She sings the mourning in the quiet night Blood red love knot, temptress eyes Cuts right through the family ties Lighthouse lights the locust's nest Sailor sights and writes incest |

Cripples Crown
An open door on the thirteenth floor Conspiracy in the corridors I'll take you down Down to Cripples Crown Should you say, what can you do? Satellites, I'm watching you I'll take you down Down to Cripples Crown I'll take you down Down to Cripples Crown At this dark hour, who'll be there? Open the door if you dare Venus Flytrap on the stairs I'll take you down Down to Cripples Crown There'll be no time, there'll be no tears The elevator disappears I'll take you down Down to Cripples Crown I'll take you down Down to Cripples Crown Cripples Crown Cripples Crown Cripples Crown Cripples Crown |

So Long Ago
Up on Killdevil Hill The Sand Dunes are still It ends as it begins December 1903 Buzzet on the breeze Coils see the wind I said it's heads or tails Bicycles for sale It's time to go Now it seems so long ago Now it seems so long ago It was three days later In a web of wires Or so it seemed Up on Killdevil Hill The Sand Dunes are still Picture the scene I watched their plans unfold In the morining cold The world will know Now it seems so long ago Now it seems so long ago If that's you over there You can laugh, you can stare Well I don't care I'll just say heads or tails Bicycles for sale It's time to go Now it seems so long ago Now it seems so long ago Now it seems so long ago Now it seems so long ago |

The operators came and took me away
They took me away Everybody laughed Remember the day they took me away I don't know what they're looking for Don't think i'll ever know They laid me on the bed Drilled my head The incision bled Put wires in my brain Every now and again I remember a name And as i drift away Into my hiding place A maze of alleyways Where the cameras cannot see The operators came and took me away They took me away Everybody laughed Remember the day they took me away Remember the day they took me away Remember the day they took me away ------------- Lyrics Powered by LyricFind Written By SKELLY, JAMES <i>Lyrics © EMI Music Publishing</i> |

Shut the bedroom window in the morning
Go to the shop, make plans to be leaving In the morning Thought I was sleeping, it was just a dream An ally cat chewing on dead meat In the morning Out of the dark and into the light When the morning comes I will be alright When I leave I try not to wake her Tea and a toast to yesterday's capers In the morning She wrote my name on a red telephone box When I got there she'd already rubbed it off In the morning Out of the dark and into the light When the morning comes I will be alright And all this time I've watched it change But it's still the same In the morning In the morning In the morning In the morning |

Something Inside Of Me
Something inside of me Feels like i've been wanting you forever There'll never be another century There's no time to think about the weather When there's something inside of me Something inside of me Something inside of me And now i can't look back The invisible invasion It's like a stranger strangled on the moor Into the void for now i'm gone Five in the morning i'll be knocking at your door With something inside of me Something inside of me Something inside of me And now i can't look back Oh please don't cut me loose I know you think that i'm bullet-proof Can't you see that it's hurting me What do think i'm supposed to be when There's something inside of me Feels like i've been wanting you forever There'll never be another century There's no time to think about the weather When there's something inside of me There's something inside of me Something inside of me And now i can't look back |

Come Home
Come home you've been gone too long I hear you walking like a tired dog All alone in the wild untamed A fading face in the picture frame Well I'll be waiting when the cuckoo calls A different place but the same four walls I hear you crying for somebody's arms Come home away from harm Tears those tears and thorns The unborn will pass through every storm While the sad silent son He sings for the kings And the times they had last spring Come home through the hurricanes The violent winds and the sharp chicanes I see you swimming in the blackest seas With the magnets and the mysteries Above the fireplace upon the shelf In the book where I find myself Was it you who turned the page last night? Come home it will be alright Tears those tears and thorns The unborn will pass through every storm While the sad silent son He sings for the kings And the times they had last spring Come home (x8) |

Far From The Crowd
Oh, where did you go? Waiting by the rocks Stories never told When you cried out loud You never made a sound Away from the town And far from the crowd Gold, silver and gold Waiting by the rocks Shivering cold Like Miranda said Life's not for the dead Away from the sound And far from the crowd Oh, where did you go? Waiting by the rocks Stories never told One forgotten day Sadly passed away Into the ground And far from the crowd Far from the crowd Far from the crowd Far from the crowd |

Leaving Today
I'm leaving today Too much time's already wasted I know I can't stay So I've made my reservations I'm closing the door To this old empty house... ...of sorrows They're only sorrows Until tomorrow I'm leaving today I'm leaving today Things I'll never know All the words I wanted to say Ghost at the window And things will never be the same I'm closing the door To this old empty house... ...of sorrows They're only sorrows Until tomorrow I'm leaving today I'm leaving today I'm rolling my bones Right out of this lonely place I'll never go home It's not my home anyway I'm closing the door To this old empty house... ...of sorrows They're only sorrows Until tomorrow I'm leaving today I'm leaving today |

Arabian Sand
Arabian sand Feel it slipping through your hand Arabian sand Arabian sand I know you sure can understand Arabian sand The madman's in the desert, look out behind you The madman's in the desert, looking to find you The madman's in the desert, promise the future The madman's in the desert, looking to shoot you Down in the desert Madman's in the desert The madman's in the desert The madman's in the desert Arabian sand Feel it slipping through your hand Arabian sand Arabian sand Sweat of those who took the stand Arabian sand The madman's in the desert, look out behind you The madman's in the desert, looking to find you The madman's in the desert, promise the future The madman's in the desert, looking to shoot you Down in the desert Madman's in the desert The madman's in the desert The madman's in the desert Can you dance with the lepers in the madman's house? Can you dance with the lepers in the madman's house? Can you dance with the lepers in the madman's house? Can you dance with the lepers in the madman's house? |

Late Afternoon
It's late afternoon Smoke fills the room The actor sighs Dogs barking outside The night seems the same It sleeps in the day The actress cries To their last goodbyes It's always this way Everytime... Everytime... You're passing me by On days like these Walk to the sea It's too hard to find When mirrors collide The end of the street The place where we meet The tears in our eyes Could stay for a while It's always the same Everytime... Everytime... You're passing me by It's late afternoon You enter the room The music dies And leaves us behind It's all just a game Everytime... Everytime... Everytime... Everytime... |
