Sting

Don't think me unkind
Words are hard to find
They're only cheques I've left unsigned
From the banks of chaos in my mind
And when their eloquence escapes me
Their logic ties me up and rapes me

De do do do de da da da
Is all I want to say to you
De do do do de da da da
Their innocence will pull me through
De do do do de da da da
Is all I want to say to you
De do do do de da da da
They're meaningless and all that's true

Poets, priests and politicians
Have words to thank for their positions
Words that scream for your submission
And no-one's jamming their transmission
'Cos when their eloquence escapes you
Their logic ties you up and rapes you

De do do do de da da da
Is all I want to say to you
De do do do de da da da
Their innocence will pull me through
De do do do de da da da
Is all I want to say to you
De do do do de da da da
They're meaningless and all that's true

Young teacher the subject
Of schoolgirl fantasy
She wants him so badly
Knows what she wants to be
Inside her there's longing
This girl's an open page
Book marking She's so close now
This girl is half his age
Don't stand to close to me
Her friends are so jealous
You know how bad girls get
Sometimes it's not so easy
To be the teacher's pet
Temptation, frustration
So bad it makes him cry
Wet bus stop, whe's waiting
His car is warm and dry
Don't stand so close to me
Loose talk in the classroom
To hurt they try and try
Strong words in the staffroom
The accusations fly
It's no use
He sees her
He starts to shake he starts to cough
Just like the old man in
That famous book by Nabakov
Don't stand so close to me

How can you say that your not responsible
What does it have to do with me
What is my reaction What should it be
Confronted by this latest atrocity
Driven to tears Driven to tears Driven to tears
Hide my face in my hands, shame wells in my throat
My comfortable existence is reduced
To a shallow, meaningless party
Seems that when some innocents die
All we can offer them is a page in a some magazine
Too many cam'ras and not enough food
'Cause this is what we've seen
Driven to tears Driven to tears Driven to tears

Protest is futile Nothing seems to get through
What's to become of our world
Who knows what to do Driven to tears
Driven to tears Driven to tears Driven to tears

Every breath you take
every move you make
every bond you break
every step you take
I'll be watching you
Every single day
every word you say
every game you play
every night you stay
I'll be watching you
Oh can't you see
you belong to me
how my poor heart breaks
with every step you take
Every move you make
every vow you break
every smile you fake
every claim you stake
I'll be watching you
Since you've gone
I been lost without a trace
I dream at night I can only
see your face
I look around but it's
you I can't replace
I feel so cold
and I long for your embrace
I keep crying baby baby please

Oh can't you see
you belong to me
how my poor heart breaks
with every step you take
Every move you make
every vow you break
every smile you fake
every claim you stake
I'll be watching you
Every move you make
every step you take
I'll be watching you

I'll be watching you

I'll be watching you

I'll be watching you

I'll be watching you

I'll be watching you

I'll be watching you

Though I've tried before to tell her
Of the feelings I have for her in my heart
Every time that I come near her
I just lose my nerve
As I've done from the start
Every little thing she does is magic
Everything she do just turns me on
Even though my life before was tragic
Now I know my love for her goes on
Do I have to tell the story
Of a thousand rainy days since we first met
It's a big enough umbrella
But it's always me that ends up getting wet
Every little thing she does is magic
Everything she do just turns me on
Even though my life before was tragic
Now I know my love for her goes on
I resolve to call her up a thousand times a day
And ask her if she'll marry me in some old fashioned way
But my silent fears have gripped me
Long before I reach the phone
Long before my tongue has tripped me
Must I always be alone?
Every little thing she does is magic
Everything she do just turns me on
Even though my life before was tragic
Now I know my love for her goes on

Yeah, yeah, yeah
There's a hole in my life
There's a hole in my life
Shadow in my heart
Is tearing me apart
Or maybe it's just something in my stars
There's a hole in my life
Be a happy man
I try the best I can
Or maybe I'm just looking for too much
There's something missing from my life
Cuts me open like a knife
It leaves me vulnerable
I have this disease
I shake like an incurable
God help me, please
Oh, there's a hole in my life
There's a hole in my life
Yeah, yeah, yeah

There's something missing from my life
Cuts me open like a knife
It leaves me vulnerable
I have this disease
I shake like an incurable
God help me, please
Oh, there's a hole in my life
There's a hole in my life

I don't want to spend the rest of my life
Looking at the barrel of an armalite
I don't want to spend the rest of my days
Keeping out of trouble like the soldiers say
I don't want to spend my time in hell
Looking at the walls of a prison cell
I don't ever want to play the part
Of a statistic on a government chart
There has to be an invisible sun
It gives its heat to everyone
There has to be an invisible sun
It gives us hope when the whole day's done
It's dark all day and it glows all night
Factory smoke and acetylene light
I face the day with my head caved in
Looking like something that the cat brought in
There has to be an invisible sun
It gives its heat to everyone
There has to be an invisible sun
It gives us hope when the whole day's done
And they're only gonna change this place
By killing everyone in the human race
And they would kill me for a cigarette
But I dont even want to die just yet
There has to be an invisible sun
It gives its heat to everyone
There has to be and invisible sun
It gives us hope when the whole day's done

There's a little black spot on the sun today
It's the same old thing as yesterday
There's a black hat caught in a high tree top
There's a flag pole rag and the wind won't stop
I have stood here before inside the pouring rain
With the world turning circles running 'round my brain
I guess I'm always hoping that you'll end this reign
But it's my destiny to be the king of pain
There's a little black spot on the sun today
That's my soul up there
It's the same old thing as yesterday
That's my soul up there
There's a black hat caught in a high tree top
That's my soul up there
There's a flag pole rag and the wind won't stop
That's my soul up there
I have stood here before inside the pouring rain
With the world turning circles running 'round my brain
I guess I'm always hoping that you'll end this reign
But it's my destiny to be the king of pain
There's a fossil that's trapped in a high cliff wall
That's my soul up there
There's a dead salmon frozen in a waterfall
That's my soul up there
There's a blue whale beached by the springtide's ebb
That's my soul up there
There's a butterfly trapped in a spider's web
That's my soul up there
I have stood here before inside the pouring rain
With the world turning circles running 'round my brain
I guess I'm always hoping that you'll end this reign
But it's my destiny to be the king of pain
There's a king on a throne with his eyes torn out
There's a blind man looking for a shadow of doubt
There's a rich man sleeping on a golden bed
There's a skeleton choking on a crust of bread
King of pain
There's a red fox torn by a huntsman's pack
That's my soul up there
There's a black winged gull with a broken back
That's my soul up there
There's a little black spot on the sun today
It's the same old thing as yesterday
I have stood here before inside the pouring rain
With the world turning circles running 'round my brain
I guess I'm always hoping that you'll end this reign
But it's my destiny to be the king of pain
King of pain
King of pain
King of pain
I'll always be king of pain

Just a castaway, an island lost at sea, oh
Another lonely day, with no one here but me, oh
More loneliness than any man could bear
Rescue me before I fall into despair, oh

I'll send an S.O.S. to the world
I'll send an S.O.S. to the world
I hope that someone gets my
I hope that someone gets my
I hope that someone gets my
Message in a bottle, yeah
Message in a bottle, yeah

A year has passed since I wrote my note
But I should have known this right from the start
Only hope can keep me together
Love can mend your life or
Love can break your heart

I'll send an S.O.S. to the world
I'll send an S.O.S. to the world
I hope that someone gets my
I hope that someone gets my

Message in a bottle, yeah
Message in a bottle, yeah
Message in a bottle, yeah
Message in a bottle, yeah

Walked out this morning, don't believe what I saw
Hundred billion bottles washed up on the shore
Seems I'm not alone at being alone
Hundred billion castaways, looking for a home

I'll send an S.O.S. to the world
I'll send an S.O.S. to the world
I hope that someone gets my
I hope that someone gets my
I hope that someone gets my

I'm sending out an S.O.S.
I'm sending out an S.O.S.
I'm sending out an S.O.S.
I'm sending out an S.O.S.

I can't stand it for another day
When you live so many miles away.
Nothing here is gonna make me stay,
(You) took me over, let me find a way.

I sold my house
I sold my motor, too.
All I want is to be Next To You.
I'd rob a bank
Maybe steal a plane.
You took me over,
Think I'm goin' insane.

What can I do,
All I want is to be next to you.
What can I do,
All I want is to be next to you.

I've had a thousand girls or maybe more,
But I've never felt like this before.
But I just don't know what's come over me,
You took me over, take a look at me.

What can I do,
All I want is to be next to you.
What can I do,
All I want is to be next to you.

All I want is to be next to you,
All I want is to be next to you,
All I want is to be next to you.

So many times I used to give a sign
Got this feeling, gonna lose my mind.
When all it is is just a love affair.
You took me over baby, take me there.

What can I do
All I want is to be next to you
What can I do
All I want is to be next to you
What can I do
All I want is to be next to you
What can I do
All I want is to be next to you.

All I want is to be next to you...

You don't have to put on the red light
Those days are over
You don't have to sell your body to the night

Roxanne
You don't have to wear that dress tonight
Walk the streets for money
You don't care if it's wrong or if it's right

Roxanne
You don't have to put on the red light
Roxanne
You don't have to put on the red light

Roxanne (Put on the red light)
Roxanne (Put on the red light)
Roxanne (Put on the red light)
Roxanne (Put on the red light)
Roxanne (Put on the red light)
Roxanne

I loved you since I knew you
I wouldn't talk down to you
I have you to tell just how I feel
I won't share you with another boy

I know my mind is made up
So put away your make up
Told you once I won't tell you again
It's a bad way

Roxanne
You don't have to put on the red light
Roxanne
You don't have to put on the red light

Roxanne (Put on the red light)
Roxanne (Put on the red light)
Roxanne (Put on the red light)
(

Well, someone told me yesterday
That when you throw your love away
You act as if you don't care
You look as if you're going somewhere
But I just can't convince myself
I couldn't live with no one else
And I can only play that part
And sit and nurse my broken heart, so lonely
So lonely, so lonely, so lonely
Now no-one's knocked upon my door
For a thousand years, or more
All made up and nowhere to go
Welcome to this one man show
Just take a seat, they're always free
No surprise, no mystery
In this theatre that I call my soul
I always play the starring role, so lonely
So lonely, so lonely, so lonely

So lonely, so lonely, so lonely
I feel lonely, I'm so lonely, I feel so low
So lonely, so lonely, so lonely

Another suburban family morning
Grandmother screaming at the wall
We have to shout above the din of our Rice Crispies
We can't hear anything at all
Mother chants her litany of boredom and frustration
But we know all her suicides are fake
Daddy only stares into the distance
There's only so much more that he can take
Many miles away
Something crawls from the slime
At the bottom of a dark Scottish lake
Another industrial ugly morning
The factory belches filth into the sky
He walks unhindered through the picket lines today
He doesn't think to wonder why
The secretaries pout and preen like
cheap tarts in a red light street
But all he ever thinks to do is watch
And every single meeting with his so-called superior
Is a humiliating kick in the crotch
Many miles away
Something crawls to the surface
Of a dark Scottish lake
Another working day has ended
Only the rush hour hell to face
Packed like lemmings into shiny metal boxes
Contestants in a suicidal race
Daddy grips the wheel and stares alone into the distance
He knows that something somewhere has to break
He sees the family home now looming in the headlights
The pain upstairs that makes his eyeballs ache
Many miles away
There's a shadow on the door
Of a cottage on the shore
Of a dark Scottish lake
Many miles away, many miles away

Sleep lay behind me like a broken ocean
Strange waking dreams before my eyes unfold
You lay there sleeping like an open doorway
I stepped outside myself and felt so cold
Take a look at my new toy
It'll blow your head in two, oh boy
Truth hits everybody, truth hits everyone
Truth hits everybody, truth hits everyone
Truth hits everybody, truth hits everyone
I thought about it and my dream was broken
I clutch at images like dying breath
And I don't want to make a fuss about it
The only certain thing in life is death
Take a look at my new toy
It'll blow your head in two, oh boy
Truth hits everybody, truth hits everyone
Where you want to be, won't you ever see?

Truth hits everybody, truth hits everyone
Ah....now!

Fifty million years ago
You walked upon the planet so
Lord of all that you could see
Just a little bit like me

Walking in your footsteps
Walking in your footsteps
Walking in your footsteps
Walking in your footsteps

Hey Mr. Dinosaur
You really couldn't ask for more
You were God's favourite creature
But you didn't have a future

Walking in your footsteps
Walking in your footsteps
Walking in your footsteps
Walking in your footsteps

Hey mighty brontosaurus
Don't you have a message for us
You thought your rule would always last
There were no lessons in your past
You were built three storeys high
They say you would not hurt a fly
If we explode the atom bomb
Would they say that we were dumb?

Walking in your footsteps
Walking in your footsteps
Walking in your footsteps
Walking in your footsteps

Fifty million years ago
They walked upon the planet so
They live in a museum
It's the only place you'll see 'em

Walking in your footsteps
Walking in your footsteps

They say the meek shall inherit the earth
They say the meek shall inherit the earth
Walking in your footsteps

Giant steps are what you take
Walking on the moon
I hope my legs don't break
Walking on the moon
We could walk for ever
Walking on the moon
We could live together
Walking on, walking on the moon

Walking back from your house
Walking on the moon
Walking back from your house
Walking on the moon
Feet they hardly touch the ground
Walking on the moon
My feet don't hardly make no sound
Walking on, walking on the moon

Some may say
I'm wishing my days away, no way
And if it's the price I pay, some say
Tomorrow's another day, you'll stay
I may as well play

Giant steps are what you take
Walking on the moon

you consider me the young apprentice
caught between the Scylia and Charibdes
hypnotized by you if i should linger
staring at the ring around your finger
i have only come here seeking knowledge,
things they wouldn't teach me of in college
i can see the destiny you sold
turned into a shining band of gold
i'll be wrapped around your finger
Mephistopheles is not your name
but i know what you're up to just the same
i will listen hard to your tuition
and you willl see it come to its fruition
i'll be wrapped around your finger
devil and the deep blue sea behind me
vanish in the air you'll never find me
i will turn your face to alabaster
then you will find your servant is your master
and you'll be wrapped around my finger

Can she excuse my wrongs with Virtue's cloak?
Shall I call her good when she proves unkind?
Are those clear fires which vanish into smoke?
Must I praise the leaves where no fruit I find?

No, no, where shadows do for bodies stand
Thou may'st be abus'd if thy sight be dimmed
Cold love is like to words written on sand
Or to bubbles which on the water swim
Wilt thou be thus abused still
Seeing that she will right thee never?
If thou cans't not o'ercome her will
Thy love will be thus fruitless ever

Was I so base, that I might not aspire
Unto those high joys which she holds from me?
As they are high, so high is my desire
If she this deny, what can granted be?

If she will yield to that which Reason is
It is Reason's will that Love should be just
Dear, make me happy still by granting this
Or cut off delays if that I die must
Better a thousand times to die
Than for to live thus still tormented
Dear, but remember it was I
Who for thy sake did die contented

Better a thousand times to die
Than for to live thus still tormented
Dear, but remember it was I
Who for thy sake did die contented

Cleare or cloudie sweet as April showring
Smooth or frowning so is hir face to mee
Pleasd or smiling like milde May all flowring
When skies blew silke and medowes carpets bee
Hir speeches notes of that night bird that singeth
Who thought all sweet yet jarring notes outringeth

Hir speeches notes of that night bird that singeth
Who thought all sweet yet jarring notes outringeth

Hir grace like June
When earth and trees bee trimde
In best attire of compleat beauties height

Hir love againe like sommers daies bee dimde
With little cloudes of doubtfull constant faith

Hir trust hir doubt, like raine and heat in Skies
Gently thundring, she lightning to mine eies

Hir trust hir doubt, like raine and heat in Skies
Gently thundring, she lightning to mine eies

Sweet sommer spring
That breatheth life and growing
In weedes as into herbs and flowers

And sees of service divers sorts in sowing
Some haply seeming and some being yours
Raine on your herbs and flowers that truly serve
And let your weeds lack dew and duly starve

Raine on your herbs and flowers that truly serve
And let your weeds lack dew and duly starve

Come again! sweet love doth now invite
Thy graces that refrain
To do me due delight

To see, to hear, to touch, to kiss, to die
With thee again in sweetest sympathy
To see, to hear, to touch, to kiss, to die
With thee again in sweetest sympathy

Come again! that I may cease to mourn
Through thy unkind disdain
For now left and forlorn

I sit, I sigh, I weep, I faint, I die
In deadly pain and endless misery
I sit, I sigh, I weep, I faint, I die
In deadly pain and endless misery

All the day the sun that lends me shine
By frowns doth cause me pine
And feeds me with delay

Her smiles, my springs
That makes my joy to grow
Her frowns the winter of my woe

Her smiles, my springs
That makes my joy to grow
Her frowns the winter of my woe

All the night my sleeps are full of dreams
My eyes are full of streams
My heart takes no delight

Come again! sweet love doth now invite
Thy graces that refrain
To do me due delight

To see, to hear, to touch, to kiss, to die
With thee again in sweetest sympathy
To see, to hear, to touch, to kiss, to die

All the day the sun that lends me shine
By frowns doth cause me pine
And feeds me with delay

Her smiles, my springs
That makes my joy to grow
Her frowns the winter of my woe

Her smiles, my springs
That makes my joy to grow
Her frowns the winter of my woe

All the night my sleeps are full of dreams
My eyes are full of streams
My heart takes no delight

Come heavy sleepe the image of true death
And close up these my weary weeping eyes
Whose spring of tears doth stop my vitall breath

And tears my hart with sorrows sigh swoln cries
Come and posses my tired thoughts worn soul
That living dies, that living dies, that living dies
Till thou on me be stoule

Come and posses my tired thoughts worn soul
That living dies, that living dies, that living dies
Till thou on me be stoule

Come shadow of my end, and shape of rest
Allied to death, child to his blackfac'd night
Come thou and charme these rebels in my breast

Whose waking fancies doe my mind affright
O come sweet sleepe - come, or I die for ever
Come ere my last sleepe comes, or come never

Fine knacks for ladies
Cheap, choice, brave and new
Good pennyworths but money cannot move
I keep a fair but for the fair to view
A beggar may be liberal of love
Though all my wares be trash, the heart is true

The heart is true
The heart is true

Great gifts are guiles and look for gifts again
My trifles come as treasures from my mind
It is a precious jewel to be plain
Sometimes in shell the Orient's pearls we find
Of others take a sheaf, of me a grain

Of me a grain
Of me a grain

Of others take a sheaf, of me a grain

Of me a grain
Of me a grain

Within this pack pins, points, laces and gloves
And divers toys fitting a country fair
But in my heart, where duty serves and loves
Turtles and twins, Court's brood, a heav'nly pair
Happy the man that thinks of no removes

Of no removes
Of no removes

Flow my teares fall from your springs
Exilde for ever: Let me morne
Where nights black bird hir sad infamy sings
There let me live forlorne

Downe vaine lights shine you no more
No nights are dark enough for those
That in dispaire their last fortunes deplore
Light doth but shame disclose

Never may my woes be relieved
Since pittie is fled
And teares, and sighes, and grones
My wearie days
My wearie days of all joyes have deprived

From the highest spire of contentment
My fortune is throwne
And feare, and griefe, and paine
For my deserts
For my deserts are my hopes since hope is gone

Hark you shadowes that in darknesse dwell
Learn to contemne light
Happy happy that in hell
Feele not the worlds despite

Hark you shadowes that in darknesse dwell
Learn to contemne light
Happy happy that in hell
Feele not the worlds despite

Flow my teares fall from your springs
Exilde for ever: Let me morne
Where nights black bird hir sad infamy sings
There let me live forlorne

Downe vaine lights shine you no more
No nights are dark enough for those
That in dispaire their last fortunes deplore
Light doth but shame disclose

Never may my woes be relieved
Since pittie is fled
And teares, and sighes, and grones
My wearie days
My wearie days of all joyes have deprived

From the highest spire of contentment
My fortune is throwne
And feare, and griefe, and paine
For my deserts
For my deserts are my hopes since hope is gone

Hark you shadowes that in darknesse dwell
Learn to contemne light
Happy happy that in hell
Feele not the worlds despite

Hark you shadowes that in darknesse dwell
Learn to contemne light
Happy happy that in hell
Feele not the worlds despite

Have you seen but a bright lily grow
Before rude hands have touched it?
Have you marked but the fall of snow
Before the soil hath smutched it?

Have you felt the wool of beaver,
Or swan's down ever?
Or have smelt o' the bud o' the brier,
Or the nard in the fire?
Or have tasted the bag of the bee?
O so white, O so soft, O so sweet is she!
So sweet is she!

O so white, O so soft, O so sweet is she!
So sweet is she!

In darkness let me dwell
The ground shall sorrow be

The roof despair, to bar all cheerful light from me
The walls of marble black
That moist'ned still shall weep

My music, my music
Hellish jarring sounds, to banish friendly sleep

Thus, wedded to my woes
And bedded to my tomb

O let me living die, o let me living die
Till death doth come, till death doth come
Till death doth come

In darkness let me dwell

In darkness let me dwell
The ground shall sorrow be

The roof despair, to bar all cheerful light from me
The walls of marble black
That moist'ned still shall weep

My music, my music
Hellish jarring sounds, to banish friendly sleep

Thus, wedded to my woes
And bedded to my tomb

O let me living die, o let me living die
Till death doth come, till death doth come
Till death doth come

In darkness let me dwell

Just a castaway
An island lost at sea
Another lonely day
With no one here but me
More loneliness
Than any man could bear
Rescue me before I fall into despair

I’ll send an SOS to the world
I’ll send an SOS to the world
I hope that someone gets my

Message in a bottle

A year has passed since I wrote my note
But I should have known this right from the start
Only hope can keep me together
Love can mend your life
But love can break your heart

I’ll send an SOS to the world
I’ll send an SOS to the world
I hope that someone gets my

Message in a bottle

Walked out this morning
Don’t believe what I saw
A hundred billion bottles
Washed up on the shore
Seems I’m not alone at being alone
A hundred billion castaways
Looking for a home

I’ll send an SOS to the world
I’ll send an SOS to the world
I hope that someone gets my
I hope that someone gets my
I hope that someone gets my
Message in a bottle

The lowest trees have tops, the ant her gall
The fly her spleen, the little spark his heat
The slender hairs cast shadows
Through but small
And bees have stings, although they be not great
Seas have their source
And so have shallow springs
And love is love, in beggars and in kings

Seas have their source
And so have shallow springs
And love is love, in beggars and in kings

Where waters smoothest run
There deepest are the fords
The dial stirs, yet none perceives it move

The firmest faith is found in fewest words
The turtles cannot sing, and yet they love
True hearts have eyes, and ears
No tongues to speak
They hear, and see, and sign
And then they break

True hearts have eyes, and ears
No tongues to speak
They hear, and see, and sign
And then they break

The lowest trees have tops, the ant her gall
The fly her spleen, the little spark his heat
The slender hairs cast shadows
Through but small
And bees have stings, although they be not great
Seas have their source
And so have shallow springs
And love is love, in beggars and in kings

Seas have their source
And so have shallow springs
And love is love, in beggars and in kings

Where waters smoothest run
There deepest are the fords
The dial stirs, yet none perceives it move

The firmest faith is found in fewest words
The turtles cannot sing, and yet they love
True hearts have eyes, and ears
No tongues to speak
They hear, and see, and sign
And then they break

True hearts have eyes, and ears
No tongues to speak
They hear, and see, and sign
And then they break

Weep you no more, sad fountains
What need you flow so fast?
Look how the snowy mountains
Heav'n's sun doth gently waste

But my sun's heav'nly eyes
View not your weeping
That now lies sleeping
That now lies sleeping
Softly, softly, now softly lies sleeping

Sleep is a reconciling
A rest that Peace begets
Doth not the sun rise smiling
When fair at e'en he sets
Rest you then, rest, sad eyes

Melt not in weeping
While she lies sleeping
While she lies sleeping
Softly, softly, now softly lies sleeping

Come again! sweet love doth now invite
Thy graces that refrain
To do me due delight

To see, to hear, to touch, to kiss, to die
With thee again in sweetest sympathy
To see, to hear, to touch, to kiss, to die
With thee again in sweetest sympathy

Come again! that I may cease to mourn
Through thy unkind disdain
For now left and forlorn

I sit, I sigh, I weep, I faint, I die
In deadly pain and endless misery
I sit, I sigh, I weep, I faint, I die
In deadly pain and endless misery

All the day the sun that lends me shine
By frowns doth cause me pine
And feeds me with delay

Her smiles, my springs
That makes my joy to grow
Her frowns the winter of my woe

Her smiles, my springs
That makes my joy to grow
Her frowns the winter of my woe

All the night my sleeps are full of dreams
My eyes are full of streams
My heart takes no delight

Flow my teares fall from your springs
Exilde for ever: Let me morne
Where nights black bird hir sad infamy sings
There let me live forlorne

Downe vaine lights shine you no more
No nights are dark enough for those
That in dispaire their last fortunes deplore
Light doth but shame disclose

Never may my woes be relieved
Since pittie is fled
And teares, and sighes, and grones
My wearie days
My wearie days of all joyes have deprived

From the highest spire of contentment
My fortune is throwne
And feare, and griefe, and paine
For my deserts
For my deserts are my hopes since hope is gone

Hark you shadowes that in darknesse dwell
Learn to contemne light
Happy happy that in hell
Feele not the worlds despite

Hark you shadowes that in darknesse dwell
Learn to contemne light
Happy happy that in hell
Feele not the worlds despite

Have you seen but a bright lily grow
Before rude hands have touched it?
Have you marked but the fall of snow
Before the soil hath smutched it?

Have you felt the wool of beaver,
Or swan's down ever?
Or have smelt o' the bud o' the brier,
Or the nard in the fire?
Or have tasted the bag of the bee?
O so white, O so soft, O so sweet is she!
So sweet is she!

O so white, O so soft, O so sweet is she!
So sweet is she!

In darkness let me dwell
The ground shall sorrow be

The roof despair, to bar all cheerful light from me
The walls of marble black
That moist'ned still shall weep

My music, my music
Hellish jarring sounds, to banish friendly sleep

Thus, wedded to my woes
And bedded to my tomb

O let me living die, o let me living die
Till death doth come, till death doth come
Till death doth come

In darkness let me dwell

Just a castaway
An island lost at sea
Another lonely day
With no one here but me
More loneliness
Than any man could bear
Rescue me before I fall into despair

I’ll send an SOS to the world
I’ll send an SOS to the world
I hope that someone gets my
I hope that someone gets my
I hope that someone gets my
Message in a bottle

A year has passed since I wrote my note
But I should have known this right from the start
Only hope can keep me together
Love can mend your life
But love can break your heart

I’ll send an SOS to the world
I’ll send an SOS to the world
I hope that someone gets my
I hope that someone gets my
I hope that someone gets my
Message in a bottle

Walked out this morning
Don’t believe what I saw
A hundred billion bottles
Washed up on the shore
Seems I’m not alone at being alone
A hundred billion castaways
Looking for a home

I’ll send an SOS to the world
I’ll send an SOS to the world
I hope that someone gets my
I hope that someone gets my
I hope that someone gets my
Message in a bottle

The lowest trees have tops, the ant her gall
The fly her spleen, the little spark his heat
The slender hairs cast shadows
Through but small
And bees have stings, although they be not great
Seas have their source
And so have shallow springs
And love is love, in beggars and in kings

Fragil (Portuguese)...
by Sting



E amanha a chuva levara
O sangue que a luta deixou derramar
Na pele a dor do aco tao cruel
Jamais a nossa voz vai calar

Um ato assim pode acabar
Com uma vida e nada mais
Porque nem mesmo a violencia
Destroi ideais
Tem gente que nao sente que o mundo assim
Ficara fragil demais

Choro eu e voce
E o mundo tambem, E o mundo tambem
Choro eu e voce
Que fragilidade, que fragilidade

Can she excuse my wrongs with Virtue's cloak? Shall I call her good when she proves unkind? Are those clear fires which vanish into smoke? Must I praise the leaves where no fruit I find? No, no, where shadows do for bodies stand Thou may'st be abus'd if thy sight be dimmed Cold love is like to words written on sand Or to bubbles which on the water swim Wilt thou be thus abused still Seeing that she will right thee never? If thou cans't not o'ercome her will Thy love will be thus fruitless ever Was I so base, that I might not aspire Unto those high joys which she holds from me? As they are high, so high is my desire If she this deny, what can granted be? If she will yield to that which Reason is It is Reason's will that Love should be just Dear, make me happy still by granting this Or cut off delays if that I die must Better a thousand times to die Than for to live thus still tormented Dear, but remember it was I Who for thy sake did die contented Better a thousand times to die Than for to live thus still tormented Dear, but remember it was I Who for thy sake did die contented

Shape of My Heart - Sting

He deals the cards as a meditation
And those he plays never suspect
He doesn't play for the money he wins
He doesn't play for respect
He deals the cards to find the answer
The sacred geometry of chance
The hidden law of a probable outcome
The numbers lead the dance

그는 깊이 생각하면서 카드를 돌립니다.
그와 카드를 하는 사람들은
그를 전혀 의심하지 않습니다.
그는 카드에 이겨 돈을 따기 위해
게임을 하는 것이 아니예요
존경을 받기 위해 게임하는 것도 아닙니다
그는 답을 찾기 위해 카드를 하지요
기회라는 거룩한 기하학이라는 답을 찾기 위해서 말이죠
예측 가능한 결과의 숨겨진 법칙이랍니다
카드숫자로 게임은 시작되지요

I know that the spades are the swords of a soldier
I know that the clubs are weapons of war
I know that diamonds mean money for this art
That's not the Shape of My Heart

나는 스페이드(♠)는 병사의 무기를 의미한다는 걸 알아요.
클로버(♣)가 전쟁의 무기를 의미한다는 것도 알고요
다이아몬드(◆)는 이 게임에서 돈을 의미한다는 것고 알죠
하지만 그건 내 마음의 참 모습은 아니랍니다

He may play the jack of diamonds
He may lay the queen of spades
He may conceal a king in his hand
While the memory of it fades

그는 다이아몬드 잭(J-Jack)을 내놓을 수도 있고
스페이드 퀸(Q-Queen)을 내려놓을 수도 있어요
그는 손에 킹(K-King)을 숨길 수도 있지요
그러나 그 사실을 잊어버릴 수도 있어요

I know that the spades are the swords of a soldier
I know that the clubs are weapons of war
I know that diamonds mean money for this art
That's not the Shape of My Heart

하지만 그건 내 마음의 참 모습은 아니랍니다

That's not the shape, the Shape of My Heart

그 모습이 아니랍니다. 내 마음의 참모습은..

And if I told you that I loved you
You maybe think there's something wrong
I'm not a man of too many faces
The mask I wear is one
Those who speak know nothing
And find out to their cost
Like those who curse their luck in too many places
And those who fear are lost

만약 내가 당신을 사랑한다고 말하면
당신은 아마 뭔가 이상하다고 생각하겠죠
난 여러 얼굴을 가진 사람이 아니랍니다.
내가 쓴 가면은 하나랍니다
말을 하는 사람들은 아무것도 모른답니다
댓가를 치르고 나서야 알게 되죠
여기 저기에서 자신들의 행운을 탓하는 사람들처럼
그리고 두려워하는 사람은 게임에서 지고 말아요

I know that the spades are the swords of a soldier
I know that the clubs are weapons of war
I know that diamonds mean money for this art
That's not the Shape of My Heart
