War, war, war, war
I want to declare a war My fist breaks your porcelain nose There are other things that hands can do To create or to destroy, mini gods and goddesses First person singular Set it, set it, set it off War, war, war, war Keep the past the future is ours Man made natural disaster Blocking out all of the sun Supermen and mitsi turbo Speed agility super strength Wipe the blood of those knuckles Spark it give me two's on that War, war, war, war I want to declare a war True say blood that when we ride We don't stop for nobody The Africans and the Bengali's He knows all the rude boys Reebok Nike Adidas Puma "This shit is long" It's all getting (it's all getting), quite highly charged (quite highly charged) Get out the way (get out the way), or get fucked up (or get fucked up) We dance to the sound of sirens We dance to the sound of sirens We dance to the sound of sirens We dance to the sound of sirens And to think, that these hands Could work wonders, with their touch Listening, to dead singers, in your room In '98 We dance to the sound of sirens We dance to the sound of sirens We dance to the sound of sirens We dance to the sound We dance to the sound We dance to the sound We dance to the sound |

It was your hair that did it
It was your hair that lit the fuse A golden brown halo Like sunlight peering through trees I ask you for the time, but I am asking for so much more A moth to your light bulb, you made my heart beat faster [Chorus] Paralyze me, with your kiss Wipe those dirty hands, on me Maybe we're looking for the same thing Maybe you're the one who will complete me Oh how beauty burns, lips and eyes and fingertips The spark of desire on every point our bodies meet Behind your eyes were stars, infinite and serene How I would suffer for you, you fascinate and magnetize me [Chorus] Sometimes I think, I would float away If this sadness did not weigh me down. [Chorus] |

You're not doing it this alone
You're not doing, You're not doing this alone For my sweetheart the melancholic, you have crossed the river Styx And the waves have taken you away As I lay my head on your chest, I can hear it your veins Wake me up when you come to bed [Chorus] So toughen up Biko toughen up Biko toughen up This world isn't kind to little things Was my love strong enough to bring you back from the dead If I could eat your cancer I would but I can't So I keep writing these songs for you To steal you from your gray And we can dance in our front room again So toughen up Biko toughen up Biko toughen up I need you be strong for us [Chorus] Don't you know that when you stand you stand up for the both of us Remember that when the darkness looms Every tear you shed is cleansing, taking the pain away from you I left you blueberries in the fridge, the little things that I can do You're not doing this alone Resist |

You used to take your watch off before we made love
You didn't want to share our time with anyone You used to close your eyes when we kissed goodbye You didn't want to see me draped in sadness And now there's nothing here, now there's nothing here at all In a loft conversion off new north road You were here I was here there was something real here I know there was You know I still adore you But in a different kind of way You know I still adore you But things have gotten vague Baby I don't ask for much but things have gotten convenient You know I still adore you but things, have kind of changed And to think I laughed at you For how you saw the world, with all that empty space inside your hear I have to cling to things now, doubles and cigarettes Forever trying to find you on the lips, of someone else Just take me back, to the start When your earthquake, was just cracks You must ask yourself everyday Just how high, are the highs |

Two ravens in the old oak tree 까마귀 두마리가 오래된 떡갈나무 위에 있어. And one for you and one for me 한마리는 너를 위해서고 다른 한마리는 나를 위해서야. And bluebells in the late December 그리고 블루벨은 늦은 12월에 피어있어. I see signs now all the time 난 그 표시를 지금 언제나봐 The last time we slept together 마지막으로 우리가 같이 잤던 때에, There was something that was not there 거기에는 없었던 무언가가 있었어. You never wanted to alarm me 너는 나를 놀라게하기를 절대로 원하지 않았어. But I'm the one that's drowning now 그러나 지금 나는 혼자고,그 것이 나를 좌절시켜. I could sleep forever these days 나는 요즘 영원히 잘수 있었어. 'Cause in my dreams I see you again 왜냐하면 내 꿈속에서 너를 다시 볼수 있었으니까 But this time fleshed out fuller faced 이번에는 너와의 만남이 더 확실해졌어. In your confirmation dress 너의 옷차림이 증거야. It was so like you to visit me 나를 찾아온 것은 너 같았어. To let me know you were OK 나에게 니가 괜찮다는 것을 알려주기 위해서 It was so like you to visit me 나를 찾아온 것은 너 같았어. Always worried about someone else 언제나 다른사람에 관해서 걱정하던 At your funeral, I was so upset 너의 장례식에서 나는 정말 혼란스러웠어 So, so upset 너무너무 혼란 스러웠어 In your life you were larger than this Statuesque 너의 인생에서의 너는 더 아름다웠어. I see signs now all the time 난 그 표시를 지금 언제나봐 That you're not dead, you're sleeping 넌 죽지않았고,자고 있다는 것을 I believe in anything that brings you back home to me 나는 너를 나에게로,집으로 데려올 무언가를 믿어 I see signs now all the time 난 그 표시를 지금 언제나봐 That you're not dead, you're sleeping 넌 죽지않았고,자고 있다는 것을 I believe in anything that brings you back home to me 나는 너를 나에게로,집으로 데려올 무언가를 믿어

Well there were 7 years between us seems that all my friends were right
That we can't survive on your bedroom eyes and a Spanish guitar When we started this it was paradise, not just Bethnal green And it's just not right this waiting game, making a cuckold of me I can be as cruel as you Fighting fire with firewood I can be as cruel as you Fighting lies with lies If you need time And it's just not like me to lash out, but enough is enough Tell me what the others can do that I cant Translucent and sun bleached skin, when did you get so LA How can you desert me after all we've been through Stuck on a dream that somewhere its better You'll be the one missing out I can be a cruel as you Fighting fire with firewood I can be as cruel as you Fighting lies Lies If you need time |

Backwards, forwards but making no ground at all
Standing in the city with the clocks counting one And your face is still wet from the fight before As your tears hit the ground, blue flowers spring from them Baby, I'm ashamed of the things I put you through Baby, I'm ashamed of the man I was for you [Chorus] And all you said in your quietest voice Was "I needed you as much as they do" How fast must we run before we can just take off in flight? How far must we run before they do not recognize us? So let's take this from the start, you'll be me and I'll be you And let's try not to complain about your smoking And my distant heart And my distant heart And my distant heart [Chorus] (Too many mirrors in this house) (And I don't like to see myself like this) (I'm becoming the man I used to be I guess) (These walls could tell you a thing or two) (Things that you really don't want to know) (Lend me your eyes for your point of view) (Lend me your feet and I'll stand up for you) [Chorus] |

And in the dark it comes for me
Malevolent and without thought Uprooting trees, destroying cars Cold and relentless, with arms outstretched No boat nor brick Nor crucifix can hold it back I've been wicked I've been arrogant [Chorus] And when it comes it will feel like a kiss (Silent about it) And when it comes it will feel like a kiss And I cannot say that I was not warned or was misled And when it comes it will feel like a kiss Awaken from dreams of drunken car crashes You saddened my friends and claimed all my lovers I tried to stay still, so it will not see Its talons rake the side of my face When did you become such a slut? [Chorus] And I didn't think I'd catch fire when I held my hand to the flame And I didn't think it would catch up as fast as I could have run Fate came a knocking when I was looking the other way A new disease came in the post for me today And when it comes it will feel like a kiss And when it comes it will feel like a kiss And when it comes And when it comes And when it comes And when it comes it will feel like a kiss |

What's with all this doom and gloom?
You used to be such, such a laugh It's only sin, original sin Corinthians (15:22) Never been a big fan of things But I'm growing so fond of you You get sadder the smarter you get And it's a bore You get sadder the smarter you get And it's a bore Truth is truth I ain't no bohemian Much too, much too safe Much too, much too typical Much too, much too typical Much too, much too You can use your hands for something else I'll take you further than the scholars can Put down your books and molest me Heaven is here, where it needs to be You get sadder the smarter you get And it's a bore You get sadder the smarter you get And it's a bore And there was a time before we were born When we stood in the garden If this world won't last I'll turn you on Well, I've got enough for the both of us The both of us The both of us And there was a time before we were born When we stood in the garden If this world does not turn you on Well, I've got enough for the both of us The both of us |

Ion square, perspex swings
I breathe out, you breathe in Permanent midnight Our love, our love How we've come to depend On each other to the end The space between us has disappeared You finish my, you finish my words for me I remember how it began So many great days in a row Barefoot on Bishopsgate Trying to find Blake's grave If we could stay like this in a silver foil Trapped in amber for a life Permanent midnight Our love, our love [Chorus] I carry your heart here with me I carry it in my heart I carry your heart with me I carry it in my heart Who said unbroken happiness Is a bore, is a bore? Who said it, my love? I don't mind it Anymore, anymore And I reach out a hand over your side of the bed Pull that blanket over your shoulders exposed to the night And the hunger of those early years will never return But I don't mind, I don't mind Cause I love my mind when I'm fucking you Slowed down to a crawl Years of crime and the bread line Have not at all dimmed your shine So let's stay in, let the sofa be our car Let's stay in, let the TV be our stars I found my dancing shoes but they don't fit All the bright lights do is bore me They bore me [Chorus] |
