Peeling the skin back from my eyes I felt surprised that the time on the clock was the time I usually retire to the place where I clear my head of you But just for today I think I'll lie here and dream of you I've got you under my skin where the rain can't get in But if the sweat pours out just shout I'll try to swim and pull you out A howling wind blows the litter as the rain flows. As street lamps pour orange colored shapes through your windows A broken soul stares from a pair of watering eyes Uncertain emotions force an uncertain smile I've got you under my skin where the rain can't get in but if the sweat pours out just shout I'll try to swim and pull you out |

6 o'clock in the morning & i'm the last person in this plane
still awake Y'know I can almost smell the blood washing against the shores, Of this land that can't forget its past. Oh the wind that carries this plane, is the wind of change, heaven sent and hell bent! over the mountain tops we go, just like all the other GI Joes EE-AY-EE-AY----adios! CHORUS This is your captain calling--"with an urgent warning" We're above the Gulf of Arabia--"our altitude is falling" & I can't hold her up--"there's no time for thinking" All hands on deck--"this bird is sinking" Across the beaches and cranes, rivers and trains all the money I've made--bodies I've maimed. Time was when I seemed to know, Should I cry like a baby, or die like a man While all the planets like wars start joining hands, Oh what a heaven--what a hell!! Y'know there's nothing can be done in the whole wide world. I don't know whats wrong or right, I'm just a regular guy, with bottled up insides, I ain't ever been to church or believed in Jesus Christ but I'm praying that Gods with you when you die!!! |

I've got too much energy to switch off my mind,
but not enough to get myself organized. My heart is heavy--my head is confused, And my aching little soul--has started burning blue! CHORUS I can't give you up, till I've got more than enough. So infect me with your love-- Nurse me into sickness. Nurse me back to health. Endow me with the gifts--of the man made world. When desire becomes an illness instead of a joy, And guilt a necessity that's gotta be destroyed. CHORUS Take me by the hands and walk me to the end of the pier. Run your fingers through my hair, and tell me what I wanna hear-- Will lies become truths in this face of fading youth from my scrotum to your womb, --your cradle to my tomb. CHORUS Nurse me into sickness, nurse me back to health And tell me what it is that I want in this world!! |

Beneath the old iron bridges, across the victorian parks,
& all the frightened people running home before dark, Past the Saturday morning cinema-- that lies crumbling to the ground, & the piss stinking shopping centre in the new side of town. I've come to smell the seasons change, & watch the city, as the sun goes down again. CHORUS Here comes another winter, of long shadows & high hopes, Here comes another winter, waitin for utopia, waitin for hell to freeze over. This is the land, where nothing changes, the land of red buses & blue blooded babies, This is the place, where pensioners are raped, & the hearts are being cut, from the welfare state, Let the poor drink the milk, while the rich eat the honey, Let the bums count their blessings, while they count the money. So many people, can't express what's on their minds, Nobody knows them & nobody ever will, Until their backs are broken & their dreams are stolen, & they can't get what they want, then they're gonna get angry! Well it ain't written in the papers, but its written on the walls The way this country is divided to fall, So the cranes are moving on the skyline-- Trying to knock down--this town But the stains on the heartland, can never be removed, from this country, that's sick, sad, and confused. CHORUS The ammunition's being passed, and the lords been praised, But the wars on the televisions will never be explained, All the bankers gettin sweaty, beneath their white collars, As the pound in our pocket, turns into a dollar. This is the 51st state--of the U. S. A. (Repeat and fade.) |

They're 5 miles high as the crow flies
Leavin' vapour trails against a blood red sky Movin' in from the East toward the West With Balaclava helmets over their heads, yes! But if you think that Jesus Christ is coming Honey you've got another thing coming If he ever finds out who's hi-jacked his name He'll cut out his heart and turn in his grave Islam is rising The Christians mobilising The world is on its elbows and knees It's forgotten the message and worships the creeds It's war, she cried, It's war, she cried, this is war Drop your possessions, all you simple folk You will fight them on the beaches in your underclothes You will thank the good lord for raising the union jack You'll watch the ships out of harbour And the bodies come floating back If the real Jesus Christ were to stand up today He'd be gunned down cold by the C.I.A. Oh, the lights that now burn brightest behind stained glass Will cast the darkest shadows upon the human heart But God didn't build himself that throne God doesn't live in Israel or Rome God belong to the yankee dollar God doesn't plant the bombs for Hezbollah God doesn't even go to church And God won't send us down to Allah to burn No, God will remind us what we already know That the human race is about to reap what it's sown The world is on its elbows and knees It's forgotten the message and worships the creeds Armageddon days are here again |

Here they come! the dogs of lust.
Out of my mind. into my life. Somebody should be here to hold me Somebody should be here to show me, show me! When you're lustful. when you're lonely. & the heat is rising slowly. I got it blue. I got it bad. I got the sweetest sadness I ever had. As the hours pass before my eyes. As the hours pass before me. When you're lustful. when you're lonely. & the heat is rising slowly. I keep reaching up But they drag me back down Wherever I try to hide I will always be found When you're lustful. when you're lonely. & the heat is rising slowly. Rising rising rising slowly Rising rising rising Rising rising slowly. |

The more I see
The less I know About all the things I thought were wrong or right & carved in stone So, don't ask me about War, Religion, or God Love, Sex, or Death Because.... Everybody knows what's going wrong with the world But I don't even know what's going on in myself. You've gotta work out your own salvation. With no explanation to this Earth we fall On hands & knees we crawl And we look up to the stars And we reach out & pray To a deaf, dumb & blind God who never explains. Every body knows what's going wrong with the world But I don't even know what's going on in myself. Lord, I've been here for so long I can feel it coming down on me I'm just a slow emotion replay of somebody I used to be. |

LoveLoveLove
LoveLoveLove Me & my friend were walking In the cold light of mourning. Tears may blind the eyes but the soul is not deceived In this world even winter ain't what it seems. Here come the blue skies Here comes springtime. When the rivers run high & the tears run dry. When everything that dies. Shall rise. LoveLoveLove is stronger than death. LoveLoveLove is stronger than death. In our lives we hunger for those we cannot touch. All the thoughts unuttered & all the feelings unexpressed Play upon our hearts like the mist upon our breath. But, awoken by grief, our spirits speak ""How could you believe that the life within the seed that grew arms that reached And a heart that beat. And lips that smiled And eyes that cried. Could ever die?"" Here come the blue skies Here comes springtime. When the rivers run high & the tears run dry. When everything that dies. Shall rise. LoveLoveLove is stronger than death. LoveLoveLove is stronger than death. Shall rise. Shall rise. Shall rise. Shall rise. |

Well... you didn't wake up this morning,
'cause you didn't go to bed. You were watching the whites of your eyes turn red! The calendar on your wall -- is ticking -- the days off. You've been reading some old letters. You smile and think how much you've changed. All the money in the world couldn't buy back those days. You pull back the curtains, and the sun burns into your eyes. You watch a plane flying across a clear blue sky. This is the day -- your life will surely change. This is the day -- when things fall into place. CLICK ABOVE TO VISIT OUR SPONSORS You could've done anything, if you'd wanted. And all your friends and family think that you're lucky. But the side of you they'll never see Is when you're left alone with the memories That hold your life together like -- glue You pull back the curtains, and the sun burns into your eyes. You watch a plane flying across a clear blue sky. This is the day -- your life will surely change. This is the day -- when things fall into place. This is the day -- your life will surely change. (repeat to fade) |

I wandered so aimless, life filled with sin
I wouldn't let my dear savior in Then Jesus came like a stranger in the night Praise the lord, I saw the light I saw the light, I saw the light No more darkness, no more night Now I'm so happy, no sorrow in sight Praise the lord, I saw the light Just like a blind man, I wandered alone Worries and fears I claimed for my own Then like the blind man that God gave back his sight Praise the lord, I saw the light I was a fool to wander and stray For straight is the gate and narrow the way Now I have traded the wrong for the right Praise the lord, I saw the light I saw the light, I saw the light |

I paint my lips pillar box red
Reminds me of the country Where I was born and bred Roots lie deeper than bones So back in time I go Through the tobacco smoke veil On the perfumed trail Where only childhood knows I lift my face to feel the rain Every thing's changed Though it seems the same The shallow hugs, the muted rage The weeping skies, the shadowless days I love and I hate this place I ran away but I couldn't escape I paint my lips pillar box red Reminds me of the country Where I was born and bred Roots lie deeper than bones So back in time I go Through the saloon bar doors Onto the chewing gum floors Where only childhood knows I lift my face to feel the rain Every thing's changed though it seems the same The sarcasm, the bitter remarks That pierce the chest and wound the heart The shallow hugs, the muted rage The weeping skies, the shadowless days I love and I hate this place I ran away but I couldn't escape I paint my lips pillar box red It reminds me of the country Where I was born and bred I paint my lips pillar box red It reminds me of the country Where I was born and bred |

Your bed at night
Awake, uptight Your hopes, your fears Your lips, God's ears Days come and go Beauty dissolves into skull Time keeps spinning round History thunders down Every step of the climb Led you to this place and time There's no more power in darkness than in light There's no more truth above you than inside The deep down truth, the deep down truth Your heart, your mind Uncoiled, unblind Ego undressed All the time compressed Into that shadow on the wall From the raindrop waterfall Crawling down the misting glass To the future from the past Every step you take Leads you from this time and place There's no more strength in hatred than in love There's no more truth beneath you than above There's no more truth in sadness than in joy There's no more tenderness in girls than in boys The deep down truth There's no more truth in hope than in grief There's no more truth in a saint than a thief There's no more truth in fate than in chance There's no more truth in your mind than your heart There's no more justice in peace than in war There's no more time behind us than before The deep down truth, the deep down truth The deep down truth, the deep down truth The deep down truth, the deep down truth The deep down truth |

I've been watching you for ages
You're like a boat without a mast Struggling with the tide of destiny Between the future and the past I am the lighthouse I am the sea I am the ait that you breathe Gravitate to me Through the ether And the mists of the mind You will come to me To lay by my side To stroke my hair To cuddle my flesh And to quell the torrents In my subterranean depths This world ain't strong enough To keep us from each other For we are kindred spirits Born to become Earthly lovers I am the lighthouse I am the sea I am your destiny Gravitate to me There is something within your voice Something behind your eyes Something inside your heart That is beating in time with mine I know you From a previous incarnation I know you From a previous incarnation I know you! From a previous incarnation Gravitate to me, gravitate to me Gravitate to me, gravitate to me |
