I cross the road just to hide and to avoid the times when you stood at my side so battered by the tide a wreck expsed at my door my eyes they cannot lie so get up from my floor for you, you've had your time. your chance has gone you're not so strong. your words they cannot harm me now.
But with all the things that I've said I'm still haunted by you in every town, every place you're waiting. on my tongue lies disgrace still haunted by you yes you, you're in my way
I've been lazy I've not waited for you Nature's hasty And Lord knows so am I
Six months inside wandsworth's finest landmark My patience has died First guilt, now hate's best son
Every M.P And all their strong and kind words "He can't be guilty" But you and I both know.
*Truth, rest your head There's more than a life at stake here For me you died tonight. So don't involve me in your plans When the chat shows beckon For me you died tonight.
You have to do it on your own I can't aid you any more You must learn to breath alone Then all this is yours. Your shoulders are strong So lengthen your stride When you're alone There is light outside. I don't recall the time we spent It's hidden in a car that sped To its death and to its rest. So give up the thoughts that bring you dread And hide them in the car That sped me to my death And to my rest. You have to do it on your own I can't help you any more. You must learn to live alone Then all this is yours When you dream I'll be guiding your thoughts So find the world And take what's yours
I have one single success to my name So take cover, I am coming out today There is no turn of phrase, no easy way to say "I'll find my feet I'll choose my own name."
It's hard to be left-handed But smile you're not the only one I know you've been left stranded Bruised, kicked Lost your mother's love But take it from me I will be here tomorrow
Evil, I've seen your face and I know just how you feel Your Victorian descendant It's illegal, that my clan just aren't seen as people On the Isle of Man I'll serve my time.
My kith and kin I have sinned I didn't hear the siren, or see him giving in My kith and kin I have sinned again He said "London can you wait For all the things I have to say London can you wait?"
My kith and kin I have sinned The alarm rang loud, the lights were on And I didn't see a thing My kith and kin Death just walked in, again He said, "London, can you wait for all the things I need to say How long can you wait?"
I was having the time of my life So why did you have to die? I'm lost Again
Onwards to the city Where new money awaits Far further from the clatter Of your past life's mistakes I've seen this all before I know what can happen When you're honest and true It's too late to change now Your years flew too soon. I've seen this all before And more. YOu found the right cliff top For saying goodbye As life swung its elbow And spat in your eye I've seen this all before And more. So onwards to the city Where new money awaits Far further from the clatter Of your past life's mistakes Yes, I've seen this all before And more
Onwards to the city Where new money awaits Far further from the clatter Of your past life's mistakes I've seen this all before I know what can happen When you're honest and true It's too late to change now Your years flew too soon.

It's the end of the year I have just settled here It may not be much, but it's enough Yet trouble has sprung from the pubs and the clubs We'll see blood soon, when the night's through
Still you can have it all, there's a hole in the wall Get some money and we'll show them This is our territory, this patch belongs to me Why don't they understand, but I've got a plan So take my hand.
And sleep well tonight, Tomorrow we fight, would you like it in town? As the bass drums boom by We'll leave this lay-by, this excuse for a town. Now that everybody knows all about me I've been rumbled, I've been sold Born with plenty but you're left empty
You can have it all, there's a hole in the wall Get some dough out and we'll show out But still trouble comes from these pubs and these clubs Why can't they understand, but I've got a plan So take my hand And sleep well tonight
Give me something I can hold With that something I will grow Make me crazy with your arms It's all gone hazy, it's all gone wrong Olympian, framed by God So bring me water to cool off. Formidable and not afraid Of the next world, just delayed. How can you decline such grand designs? I'm flattered that you thought I make a good reward, but How can you survive my blatant lies? I'm flattered that you thought So come taste my good reward. I wanted to be there with you For I can only be normal with you I'm taking your life for you
While cimineys seep my room is dark the wardropve sees you sleep There's nothing here but rumbles from our street, and I'm left wanting more. I've tried to ask, but while stooping down your mouth began to gasp
I cross the road just to hide and to avoid the times when you stood at my side so battered by the tide a wreck expsed at my door my eyes they cannot lie so get up from my floor for you, you've had your time. your chance has gone you're not so strong. your words they cannot harm me now.
But with all the things that I've said I'm still haunted by you in every town, every place you're waiting. on my tongue lies disgrace still haunted by you yes you, you're in my way
I'm a local man Can you tell me how I can Can I touch you please I have been blessed But I've been told to rest I'll call if you let me If I have to go, I'm not taking you along I'm riding out the waves and testing out the hurdles So long my love This is goodbye, so long This is good-bye I can't decide if she really loves me My forehead met the pavement But I've started to come round I've been cut, spat out and hollowed This time I'll stay down
I could take you from the real world I can take you to see the lights But then you must go home These are pleasant times Such lovley times A clever line in ruining lives Exclusively for you and me These are pleasant times, Such happy times These are rotten days Such hostile days A profitable way an everchanging face Exclusively for you and me These are rotten days Such frightening days
When I'm on my own And I need my home You can hold every atom And every limb I own When I need a friend Can you be that friend Will you share every sorrow For tomorrow is mine? I can't help myself The things you did for me From now on I will have plenty I can't help myself I'm in love again Now the time has come My work is done For every warm touch of kindness I'm the blindest man here
You have to do it on your own I can't aid you any more You must learn to breath alone Then all this is yours. Your shoulders are strong So lengthen your stride When you're alone There is light outside. I don't recall the time we spent It's hidden in a car that sped To its death and to its rest. So give up the thoughts that bring you dread And hide them in the car That sped me to my death And to my rest. You have to do it on your own I can't help you any more. You must learn to live alone Then all this is yours When you dream I'll be guiding your thoughts So find the world And take what's yours
For The Dead 작곡:Kevin Miles,Martin Rossiter,Matt James,Steve Mason
With every wind I hear you sing "You will be fine" With every note Stuck in your throat "This is your time", but Everyone is just walking away from me Am I really that nasty All the dust and dirt affects my skin Everyone is just turning away from me Am I really that filthy It's cold and dark, let me in
I'm in love with this land of plenty Full of folks that still are friendly I've lost my will, still I see some hope Give me a rope, I'll take it gladly Find me a tree, make it sturdy Bye ma! it's my time to go Yes this one's for the dead
