It's coming down, babe
Could be as bad as they talked about
It's coming down, babe
Could be before we can make it out

But when they say that all is lost, all is not lost, all is not lost
But when they say that all is lost, all is not lost, no, all is not lost at all

And they could be right about it
They could be right in some crazy way
'Cause if they yell fire, well that's what we get
Yeah, they yell fire and that's what we get

So, yeah it's coming babe
Probably bad as they talked about
But just remember when the tide rolls in
Can't be too long 'til it rolls back out

And when they say all is lost, all is not lost, all is not lost
But when they say that all is lost, all is not lost, no all is not lost at all

And if they burn, if they burn this place down to the ground, what does it matter?
What does it matter now?

'Cause when they say that all is lost, all is not lost, all is not lost
But when they say that all is lost, all is not lost
No, all is not lost, not lost, at all

In the dream you were someone different
You and everyone else all at once
You were beautiful, you were beautiful
In the dream you were just like you are

You love everyone like a sovereign
Half magnanimous, half unimpressed
And I was talking too much, I was trying too hard
In the dream it was just like it is

And then
Everything was so simple
Things were how they always will be
You are the answer to the question that is me
In the dream it was just like it is

We were captive in
In a prison
Where everyone was guilty by mistake
And it was infinite
It was infinite
In the dream it was just like it is

And I
I asked if love could free us,
You said, "No, probably not
But everybody needs to get through the night
And love is all we got"
Yeah

In the dream it was just like it is
Yeah, in the dream it was just like it is

In the dream you were someone different
You and everyone else all at once
You were beautiful, you were beautiful
In the dream it was
Just like it is

Before the earth was round
There was no end to things
No one tried to measure what they knew

Everything was warm
And everyone would love
And every contradiction was true
The sun worked twice as hard
And the moon was twice as far
And the sky was still honestly blue
The sky was still honestly blue

But when the time came
Everything spiraled in
And everyone forgot what they knew

And war became a job
And love became a mystery
And heart and head were rent into two
Fear and doubt began
And God threw up his hands
And the sky didn't know what to do
The sky didn't know what to do
The sky didn't know what to do

Oh sugar, oh sugar can't you see how hard I'm trying?
You know you gotta, you know you gotta eventually make up your mind
Cause no one's gonna find ya when you're hiding in the dark
No one's gonna find ya when you're hiding in the dark
No one's gonna find ya when you're hiding in the dark
No one's gonna find ya

So won't ya, so won't ya talk to me?
It's time to decide
Cause no one's gonna save you if you don't swim toward the boat
No one's gonna save you if you won't take the rope
No one's gonna find you when you're hiding in the dark
No one's gonna find ya

And it's end love, the sky is falling

So sugar, so sugar dance with me this one last time
We got no reason, we got no reason I can see to hold back tonight
Cause no one's gonna catch you if you can't just let go
No one's gonna love you if you can't let love show
No one's gonna find you when you're hiding in the dark
No one's gonna find you

And it's end love, and the sky is falling

Oh sugar, oh sugar can't you see how hard I'm trying?
You know you gotta, you know you gotta eventually make up your mind
And it's end love, the sky is falling

In your fitted raincoat and tangled winter hair
Cheeks a little rosy in the February air
And running through the subway to catch the Uptown train
Spend the night just dancing
Running through the subway to catch the Uptown train
I spent the night just dancing

I want you, yeah, I want you
I want you, yeah, I want you bad
So bad I can't think straight
So bad all my bones shake
So bad I can't breathe

Then in the midnight choir, outside the Whirlaway
We could have just one more and maybe you could stay
And in the light of morning for 21 days straight
There you are beside me
And in the light of morning for 21 days straight
There you are beside me

I want you, yeah, I want you
I want you, yeah, I want you bad
So bad I can't think straight
So bad all my bones shake
So bad I can't breathe

So won't cha, oh won't cha say it?
So won't cha, oh give in?
So won't cha, oh won't cha come on?

I can't breathe!

'Cause I want you, yeah, I want you
I want you, yeah, I want you bad
So bad I can't think straight
So bad all my bones shake
So bad I can't breathe

I want you, yeah, I want you, so bad I can't breathe
I can't breathe

Well at first there was,
There was just no question.
Who wouldn't rather be their reflection?
And when I got here everything was cold and perfect,
And when I got here everything was cold and perfect.

It was clear and bright
Like midwinter sunlight.
My heartbeat counted down the moments, precise and quiet.
I looked out and saw my own reflection, helpless,
I looked out and saw him overwhelmed and helpless.

But oh,
What have I done, what have I done?
Ooh, What have I done, oh what have I done?
My God, what have I done, oh what have I done?
Oh what have I done?

And as time went on,
You could feel the silence
Solidifying and the sound of my thoughts was paralyzing.
I tried to call out to him but the glass was perfect,
I tried to call out to him but the glass was perfect.

But oh,
What have I done, what have I done?
Oh, What have I done, oh what have I done?
My God, what have I done,
And oh what wicked penance
To get what you want,
To get what you want?
Oh what have I done?

Every day is the same:
We're praying for rain.
And when it finally came,
And when it came,
Every day was the same:
Still praying for rain.
[repeat x4]

And when it finally came,
And when it came,
Every day was the same.

If you should be the last autumn leaf hanging from the tree
I'll still be here waiting on the breeze to bring you down to me
And if it takes forever, forever it'll be
And if it takes forever, forever it'll be

And if you should be the last seed in spring to venture forth a leaf
I'll still be here waiting on the rain to warm your heart for me
And if it takes forever, forever it'll be
And if it takes forever, forever it'll be

I've been waiting for months, waiting for years, waiting for you to change.
Aw, but there ain't much that's dumber,
There ain't much that's dumber than pinning your hopes on a change in another.
And I - yeah, I still need you, but what good's that gonna do?
Needing is one thing, and getting - getting's another.

So I been sitting around, wasting my time,
Wondering what you been doing.
Aw, and it ain't real forgiving, it ain't real forgiving
Sitting here picturing someone else living.
And I - yeah, I still need you, but what good's that gonna do?
Needing is one thing, and getting getting's another.

I've been hoping for months, hoping for years, hoping I might forget.
Aw, but it don't get much dumber, it don't get much dumber
Than trying to forget a girl when you love her.
And I - yeah, I still need you, but what good's that gonna do?
Needing is one thing, and getting getting's another.

When?
When?
Why not now?
Why not me?
Why not me?

Skyscrapers, please forgive me,
I didn't mean a word I said.
Skyscrapers, I was just tangled up in my own head.

And somehow, in all the madness,
I thought that I was seeing straight.
It ain't always pretty, but it seemed there was no other way.

And I guess, all I ever loved,
Was standing right before my eyes.
And I, oh I, I was blind.

So skyscrapers, please forgive me,
I stand here a penitent man.
Oh skyscrapers, I'll never look down again, again.

Oh, 'cause I guess, all I ever loved,
Was standing right before my eyes.
Oh yeah, I guess, all I've ever known,
Was standing, was standing, was standing here all the time.
And I, yeah I, I was blind,
I was blind,
I was blind.

You were right here all the time,
You were right here all the time, I was blind.
I was blind,
I was blind.
Oh, I was blind,
Oh, I was blind.

Y'know you can't keep letting it get you down
And you can't keep dragging dead weight around.
If there ain't all that much to lug around,
Better run like hell when you hit the ground.

When the morning comes.
When the morning comes.

You can't stop these kids from dancing
And why would you want to,
Especially when you are already getting yours?
'Cause if your mind don't move and your knees don't bend,
well don't go blaming the kids again.

When the morning comes.
When the morning comes.

When the morning comes.
When the morning comes.

When the morning comes.
When the morning comes.

Let it go, this too shall pass.
Let it go, this too shall pass.

Let it go, this too shall pass.
(You know you can't keep letting it get you down. No, you can't keep letting it get you down.)

Let it go, this too shall pass.
(You know you can't keep letting it get you down. No, you can't keep letting it get you down.)

Hey!

Let it go, this too shall pass.
(You know you can't keep letting it get you down. No, you can't keep letting it get you down.)

When the morning comes.
(You can't keep letting it get you down. You can't keep letting it get you down.)

When the morning comes.
(You can't keep letting it get you down. No, you can't keep letting it get you down.)

When the morning comes.
(You can't keep letting it get you down. You can't keep letting it get you down.)

When the morning comes.
(You can't keep letting it get you down. No, you can't keep letting it get you down.)

When the morning comes!

In the shallowest part of the night
While you quietly slept
I lay here and I counted the hours
To the sound your breath

Can't you love me
Can't you love me
How I want?
Please

How I want

I went walking down on second street
Through the leaves and the clutter
In the pale yellow sodium light
Nothing has any color

Can't you love me
Can't you love me
How I want?
Please

How I want

Can't you love me
Can't you love me
How I want?
Please...

You'll never get that taste out of your mouth
You'll never get the paw prints out of the hen house now
And you can't go back same way you came
Round all the pieces up, but they just don't fit the same

White knuckles
Maybe it's not so bad
So let your hair down now
White knuckles
Yeah, maybe it's not so bad
So let it all come down

So can we let it all out? Let it bleed?
Did you get what you want?
?Did you get what you need?
And behind the lines?
Behind the wall, tell me,
?Was the bed you made really that bad after all?

White knuckles
Yeah, maybe it's not so bad
So let your hair down now
White knuckles
Maybe it's not so bad
Just let it all come down

So just how far is far enough??
Everybody needs to sleep at night?
Everybody needs a crutch
But couldn't good be good enough?
‘Cause nothing never doesn't change
But nothing changes much

Yeah, maybe it's not so bad
So let your hair down now
White knuckles
Oh, maybe it's not so bad
Just let it all come down

Yeah, maybe it's not so bad
Just let your hair down now
White knuckles
Oh, maybe it's not so bad
Just let it all come down

All of the astronauts
Champagne in plastic cups
Waiting for the big hero to show

Outside the door he stands
His head in his hands
And his heart in his throat

What can he tell them now?
Sorry I let you down
Sorry, it wasn't quite true

But don't get hung up on it
Just solider on with it
And good luck with shooting the moon

Shooting the moon
Shooting the moon, the moon
Shooting the moon

All of the principals
Generals, admirals
And the podium lit with the spotlight

The crowd buzzes quietly
Waiting expectantly
Like it's opening night

What can he tell them now?
Sorry I let you down
Sorry it wasn't quite true

But don't get hung up on it
Just solider on with it
And good luck with shooting the moon

Shooting the moon
Shooting the moon, the moon
Shooting the moon

Ok Go - Here it goes again



It could be ten, but then again,

I can't remember half an hour since a quarter to four.

So you were born
in an electrical storm
took a bite out the sun
and saw your
future in a machine built for two
Now your rays make me
kind of go crazy
shock and awe and amaze me
just a ticker tape parade and me
but something was wrong
till you tap danced on the air
in the night
Screaming at the top
of your lungs you said
Come on come on
Do what you want
What could go wrong
Oh come on come on
come on come on
do what you want
Oh come on come on
What could go wrong
Do do do do what you want
Come on

Me I was raised amid
the trickle down days
I woke up numb in the haze
and saw my
future machine built for two
but the light
gave me some kind of fright
How did wrong get so right
and lead me stumbling
through the dark of night
Oh something was wrong
but you tap danced on the air
in the night
Screaming
at the top of your lungs
you said
Come on come on
Do what you want
What could go wrong
Oh come on come on
come on come on
do what you want
Oh come on come on
What could go wrong
Do do do do what you want
Come on
Do do do do what you want
Do do do do what you want

Do do do do what you want
Do do do do what you want
Do what you want
Do what you want
Do what you want
Do Do what you want
Do Do what you want
Do Do what you want
Do do do do what you want
come on come on come on
come on come on come on
Do do do do what you want
Do Do what Do Do

Oh no Oh lately it's so quiet
in this place
You're not 'round every corner
oh no Oh lately it's so quiet
in this place
So darlin' if your not
here haunting me
Im wondering
Whos house
are you haunting tonight
Aw Whose sheets you twist
Aw Whose face you kiss
Whos house
are you haunting tonight

oh no I dont think much
about you anymore
You're not on every whisper oh
oh no I dont think much
about you
But if you're not lurking
behind every curtain
Im wondering
Whos house
are you haunting tonight
Aw Whose name you hiss
Aw Whose clenching fists
Whos house
are you haunting tonight

Now whos house
are you haunting tonight
Aw Who cant resist
Aw Whose cryin'
Whos house
are you haunting tonight
Aw Whose name you hiss
Aw Whose sheets you twist
Whos house
are you haunting tonight
