Here she comes
Silent in her sound Here she comes Fresh upon the ground Come gentle spring Come at winter's end Gone is the pallor from a promise that's nature's gift Waiting for the colour of spring Let me breathe Let me breathe the colour of spring Here she comes Laughter in her kiss Here she comes Shame upon her lips Come wanton spring, come For birth you live Youth takes its bow before the summer the seasons bring Waiting for the colour of spring Let me breathe |

Only of the night My relief in it's falling Breathe on me, eclipse my mind It's in some kind of disarray Killing time, I cradle far Chameleon days Chameleon day |

From the place that I stand to the land that is openly free
Watching rivers run black by the trees that are vacant to greed Gotta give it up Gotta get a second chance Gotta give it up Gotta get a second chance and the jokes just started Gotta give it up Give it up, give it up Gotta give it up Or tell me why I'm so wrong Where does love come from If you've sold your reasoning out? How can I learn if I don't understand what I see If I'm giving this mess, take a walk through a nightmare so real Gotta give it up Gotta get a second chance Gotta give it up Gotta get a second chance and the jokes just started Gotta give it up Give it up, give it up Gotta give it up Tell me why I'm so wrong Where does luck come from When you've never been without? Give it up Give it up, give it up Gotta give it up Give it up, give it up Gotta give it up Tell me why I'm so wrong Where does love come from If you've sold your reasoning out?

Makes you feel much older
Sublime the blind parade It wrecks me how they justify their acts Of war, they assemble, they pray Take good care of what the priests say 'After death it's so much fun' Little sheep, don't let your feet stray CHORUS Happiness is easy (Joy be written on the Earth) (And the sky above) (Jesus, star that shines so bright) (Gather us in love) Guilt upon their shoulders How well the cause evades Infecting your religions, claiming pacts It's easy to shoulder the blame Happiness is easy (Little ships of Galilee) Happiness is easy (Standing on the sea) Happiness is easy (Jesus tried to love us all) Happiness is easy (Be a friend to me) Try to teach my children To recognise excuse before it acts From love & conviction to pray Take good care of what the priests say 'After death it's so much fun' Little sheep, don't let your feet stray Happiness is easy (Little ships of Galilee) (Standing on the sea) (Jesus tried to love us all) (Be a friend to me) (Little ships of Galilee) (Standing on the sea) (Jesus tried to love us all) (Be a friend to me) (Joy be written upon the Earth) (And the sky above) (Jesus, star that shines so bright) (Gather us in love) |

Where do words begin I'm trying to find the path ahead Any way you say it The charade goes on But your eyes won't see it It's the same old song I don't believe you I don't believe you Promises so golden Years have proved them wrong I'm trying to leave some self respect Any way you say it Our decline goes on But your pride won't heed it It's the same old song I don't believe you I don't believe you I don't, I don't believe in you And the way you play it Is the way you want Any way you sing it It's the same old song I don't believe you I don't believe you I don't believe you I don't believe you |

And when you're hanging round
waiting on the other side of town Kick a stone on a painted wall. And when the riot comes keep your head and keep your loving charm Living life is a glamour show - but it's another word it's another word. All soldiers have a cause giving life upon graffitied walls As a way to pass the time. I saw a father's fear for a leader standing over here. 'Who's the King' say's a passer by - but it's another word it's another word Word - word And when you're hanging round waiting on the other side of town . . . Word - word it's another word word word. |

This sure is some kind of party
It's so useful Surrounds my life with excuses For what I choose to lose And my name Doesn't look the same to me And inside Don't you know I feel so bad Candy, When I tried to turn away To feel new again My emotion cost me pain Did I look the same When I think about the times That I laughed away the idea you'd cheat me But look again What do you say 'That's my name' AND I HOPE THAT I'VE KEPT YOU AMUSED TO WIPE THAT SPIT RIGHT OFF MY BOOTS And when I'm home and thinking in the dark I hope that none of this has had to go too far When it gets too late To see me any other way And it gets so hard to hold on To everything that I want so bad |

RELAX YOUR STARE
It's laughing in my face My foes beware I'm tired of losing grace The child's not there The priest is losing faith Defile my care And stumble to the flames People crying, People crying My confusion Are there illusions? .... Hate THE DICE WON'T LOSE They've everything to gain Devout prepare The stones along my grave People crying, People crying My confusion Are there illusions? .... Hate Don't say a word If I've been away too long I found out it's wrong I found out ... I DON'T NEED HATE |

I'm picking up again
Waint it got too much After the accident It could feel no worse I turned around and saw him hit the ground Alittle earlier, it was a game I guess the barrier Must have dropped away I don't like to read the news D'you know anything I'm going through Did you see my photograph It was on page ten I swore to everyone I'm not to blame I turned around and saw him hit the ground A little earlier it was a game i'm so disposable you can throw me away I don't like to read the news D'you know anything I'm going through Wat a fool I've been Didn't get to him in time "What's been happening?" Its so hard to sleep at night Its so hard to sleep at night To sleep at night I don't like to read the news D'you know anything I'm going through |

I've given everything
With nothing in return I'm filled with images That play on every word No-one to tell me There's a cloud before my eyes Not only broken, I don't know the reason why It's so serious This endless sea of tears The feeling that I'll drown I'd try to catch them But they're sure to touch the ground My world of emptiness A child without a toy Forgiving anything Restore me to my joy It's so serious |

Out in the street today
We're parading around We're the height of the fashion And she laughs 'cos we look the same And follow all of the rule Every little bit of my time Keeps me checking that my clothes are in line I'll identify without wasting time Mirror man Inside of her room today She's been working all hours For the final presentation Each day, dressed a different way She's the star of the road Every little bit of her time Keeps her checking that she stays out of line She'll wear anything you can't recognise Mirror man |

Cover me with shades of disbelief
Can happiness be someone else's dream? Numbers call to spell my name Move about as values change Catch me if you can, but don't delay Today, today It's a dream away Today, today Governed by the title on the wall Commit me to a life within a fool Happiness can often bleed Beggars lay among the sheep Let me take the choice the sermon pleads Today, today It's a dream away Today, today A dream away Visions in my cell begin to breed Was everything a fact of what I read? Excuse me while l spell my name Boat and ship could sound the same Catch me if you can, but don't delay Today, today It's a dream away Today, today A dream away Belle Malissima Belle Malissima Belle Malissima Belle Malissima Today, today It's a dream away Today, today A dream away Today, today It's a dream away Today, today A dream away |

Oh yeah
The world's turned upside down Jimmy Finn is out Well how can that be fair at all Lenient The song the lawyer sang Our nation's wrong Well how can that be fair at all Repented, changed Aware where I have wronged Unfound corrupt This song the jailor sings My time has run Sound the victim's song The trial is gone The trial goes on Sound the victim's song |

Nobody knows how long
Rustling leaves unrhyme Lullaby breeze unsung Babel of dreams unwinds in memory As bad as bad becomes It's not a part of you And love is only sleeping Wrapped in neglect Time it's time to live Kissing a grey garden Shadow & shade Sunlight treads softly As bad as bad becomes It's not a part of you Contempt is ever breeding Trapped in itself Time it's time to live As bad as bad becomes It's not a part of you The wicked and the weeping Ramble or run Time it's time to live Time it's time to live for living Now that it's over Rest your head |

Don't look back until you've tried
A line so openly a lie 'Outside of you, it's just tomorrow starting' I've said I'm wrong when I've been right I've seen times when I've been sure but still I find I'm just the first that you take Are there reasons everybody pays They never seem to be any use They never seem to be any use It's just tomorrow starting Don't look back until you've tried With time you'll endlessly arrive Outside of use With just tomorrow starting See my eyes tell me I'm not lying I'm just the first that you take Are there reasons everybody pays They never seem to be any use They never seem to be any use It's just tomorrow started See my eyes tell me I'm not lying I'm just the first that you take Are there reasons everybody pays They never seem to be any use They never seem to be any use It's just tomorrow started |

Makes you feel much older
Sublime the blind parade It wrecks me how they justify their acts Of war, they assemble, they pray Take good care of what the priests say 'After death it's so much fun' Little sheep, don't let your feet stray CHORUS Happiness is easy (Joy be written on the Earth) (And the sky above) (Jesus, star that shines so bright) (Gather us in love) Guilt upon their shoulders How well the cause evades Infecting your religions, claiming pacts It's easy to shoulder the blame Happiness is easy (Little ships of Galilee) Happiness is easy (Standing on the sea) Happiness is easy (Jesus tried to love us all) Happiness is easy (Be a friend to me) Try to teach my children To recognise excuse before it acts From love & conviction to pray Take good care of what the priests say 'After death it's so much fun' Little sheep, don't let your feet stray Happiness is easy (Little ships of Galilee) (Standing on the sea) (Jesus tried to love us all) (Be a friend to me) (Little ships of Galilee) (Standing on the sea) (Jesus tried to love us all) (Be a friend to me) (Joy be written upon the Earth) (And the sky above) (Jesus, star that shines so bright) (Gather us in love) |

Funny how I find myself in love with you
If I could buy my reasoning I'd pay to lose One half won't do I've asked myself, how much do you Commit yourself It's my life Don't you forget It's my life It never ends (it never ends) Funny how I blind myself, I never knew If I was sometimes played upon, afraid to lose I'd tell myself, what good do you do Convince myself It's my life Don't you forget It's my life It never ends (it never ends) I've asked myself, how much do you Commit yourself? It's my life Don't you forget Caught in the crowd It never ends It's my life Don't you forget Caught in the crowd It never ends It's my life Don't you forget Caught in the crowd It never ends |

Lay your hands into my hand
I've been so rude I don't care what you do Some recall is not enough I've seen a few Creeping like you do My foolish friend Don't try to live my life Upon this weary line My foolish friend Don't tell me if I'm right Teenage tears the saving grace Of this fool But no one's watching you Save this mirror for your face There are two No matter what you choose My foolish friend Don't try to live my life Upon this weary line My foolish friend Don't tell me if I'm right When I can really rebel Yes, I'm really saddened My foolish friend Don't try to live my life Upon this weary line My foolish friend Don't try to live my life |

Change, I was flying
Seems my life is dying How can I confess I've given everything that I had and still you left How can I forget I'm getting pictures of you inside my head Pictures of Bernadette Change, I'm no closer How can I reproach you How can I pretend I'm living like a King in a land that heaven sent How can I suspect I get a message from you to say you've left Pictures of Bernadette Recollection sees the sun upon your hair How I feel it, love we used to share How can I accept I've given everything that I had and still you left Pictures of Bernadette I've got a message from you to say you've left Bernadette |

Can happiness be someone else's dream? Numbers call to spell my name Move about as values change Catch me if you can, but don't delay Today, today It's a dream away Today, today Governed by the title on the wall Commit me to a life within a fool Happiness can often bleed Beggars lay among the sheep Let me take the choice the sermon pleads Today, today It's a dream away Today, today A dream away Visions in my cell begin to breed Was everything a fact of what I read? Excuse me while l spell my name Boat and ship could sound the same Catch me if you can, but don't delay Today, today It's a dream away Today, today A dream away Belle Malissima Belle Malissima Belle Malissima Belle Malissima Today, today It's a dream away Today, today A dream away Today, today It's a dream away Today, today A dream away |
