I don't love you everybody knows Everybody knows and I can't say I enjoy the feeling, I could leave, well everybody goes everybody goes and I won't say that is not appealing
But I don't wanna feel what everybody feels I've got more to lose they're not significant I don't care whose listening They're not in my shoes
You Know That....
Everybody wants a little something, something everybody wants a little something good
I don't get those pop and idol shows everybody knows that the good things take a little longer 12 years on the cracks begin to show scared you wanna go but I hope that we're a little stronger
But I don't wanna feel what everybody feels I've got more to lose they're not significant I don't care whose listening they're not in my shoes
you know that...
Everybody wants a little something, something Everybody wants a little something good
Rose, she ain't like the others she spins a dervish mother her bright brown hair and her acorn eyes she gets me there when she hypnotises but Brixton leaves me alone
Another drunken evening Red wine you're so deceiving Her photograph is my only friend this one wild year just won't seem to end and Brixton leaves me alone
But the sun will rise once more, well it better the sun will rise once more if we let her but Brixton leaves me alone
Just one more night in london Home is a distant drumlin with its 'no retreat' and 'our time has come' well, curse those fifes and damn those drums Belfast leaves me alone
But the sun will rise once more, well it better the sun will rise once more if we let her but Brixton leaves me alone
Save me from the movies and someone else's dreams while angels make their music and give my spirit wings I just concertina and wrap around the world Staying out til' 6'o clock and singing like a fool
I've only got this morning to live Look at all the colours at my fingertips
I don't want to stand still I just want to freewheel I don't want to lose this I don't want to stand still I just want to freewheel I don't want to lose this,
Save my feet from dancing with just anyone at all Worn out shoes 'cause lotus blue keeps hanging in the hall You're this face in the distance i hope to recognise But it's like running through deep water trying to look into your eyes
I've only got this morning to live Look at all the colours at my fingertips
I don't want to stand still I just want to freewheel I don't want to lose this I don't want to stand still I just want to freewheel I don't want to lose this
Take a Picture if it helps you sleep The expose me as your royal Creep For now I've torn it we're not the same The're a sun that's breaking through my window Pane It's burning up my face, yes it's doing it again No cover up No room for hiding No Cover up My Faith is Sliding No civer up Just sharp reminding of the fake i was There are face that we should not know There are places we're not meant to go If you try to Find mee you will never win For behind each layer lies another skins I'd love to let you in, if you find a way in No Cover up Just so much trouble No cover up I'm Bent in double no cover up Just wreck and rubble of the person i was I am Broken and i stand accused Is there someone who can let me loose If you find the answer make careful not I could use your pardon and a lot of hope I'm Getting to that part at the end of the rope No cover up I feel the burning No cover up Nor time for turning No cover up I hope I'm learning some honesty some honesty
Paint my picture if you must, Please remember to be kind. 'Cause darling, your broken heart was never on my mind. Paint me with a building heart Like some cruel valentine But darling, your broken heart was never on my mind. And when you feel the clash, and you don't want me around, Could you endure the rasp as kisses filled with fibreglass rain down Heavy as a hummingbird But more difficult to find Well darling, your broken heart was never on my mind. Clumsy as a ragtime clown Or a dancing Frankenstein Well darling, your broken heart was never on my mind So pull this canvas down beneath that angry moon As you endure the sound of one more singer singing out of tune. Out of tune. So paint my picture, well, if you must Not forgetting to be kind Cause darling, your broken heart was never on my mind.
Let me down baby, I'm driving me crazy. You need to erase all the things I have done. I shake and I shiver, I poison my liver. I'm riding a river, that river is blue. I can see what you can see, it's worrying. I'm fading my fast towards my last, I'm hurrying. I wish that I could passify the guilt that I feel. I know the wrongs this vagabond has done to you. I head rewind, well, every time that tape runs through. Your memory is haunting me, and cuts to my bones. I'm drunk and I'm tired, I'm wound up and wired. I think I've aquired a problem or two. I quake and I quiver, And give up my liver. I'm riding a river, that river is blue. I can see what you can see, it's worrying. I'm fading my fast towards my last, I'm hurrying. I wish that I could passify the guilt that I feel. I'm riding this river The river is you.
I could go to London, I could go to London I could go to London, I could go to London I could go to London, I could go to London I could go to London, I could go to London
I packed a lung with smoke, crossed the line There?ll be no glory train for me this time Now just where do I begin After all I?ve taken in
I bought your fire trees, your Sunday bells Spoke your Holy Ghost, drunk your wells Now that tongue has had to go Sight and centigrade in tow
Take me crawling from the corner
Would you lay your love on me? Could you shake me ?till I?m clean? A salvation tambourine
I heard from Canada the day she died The clowns are killing me to join their side Certain I can?t pay the fare Bloodshot vision keeps me here
Take me crawling from the corner
Would you lay your love on me? Could you shake me ?till I?m clean? Would you lay your love on me? Could you shake me ?till I?m clean? A salvation tambourine
I could go to London, maybe that?s where you are I could go to Paris, I could look from the Tower I could go to London, maybe that?s where you are I could go to America, I could go to America
I could go to London, maybe that?s where you are I could go to Paris, I could jump from the Tower I could go to London, maybe that?s where you are I could go to Jerusalem, I could go to Jerusalem
I could go to Jerusalem, I could go to Jerusalem I could go to Jerusalem, I could go to Jerusalem I could go, I could go, I could go, I could go I could go to Jerusalem, I could go, I could go, I could go
It's not like I ever claimed to know What shadows were pressing on your soul It's just I wish you'd pause for breath And didn't have to go
I saw you were spinning from the sky It burned in the corner of my eye I sat there frozen and in that moment You bid your soul goodbye
I, I was only wondering If you would ever change your mind You could give it up but something might happen It's all too much but something might happen You'll break this cup but something might happen
I know what it's like to feel alone To always be looking for your home To stand upon a riverbank Try to make your demons go
I, I was only wondering If you could ever change your mind You could give it up but something might happen It's all too much but something might happen You'll break this cup but something might happen
