I Speak Your Every Word
I spoke to you just the other day I hear your voice from far away I can smell deception in your every word maybe I'm dreaming and my vision is blurred there's something inside you I see pictures of children I speak your every word Ahh oh ahh oh You, are my saviour you've come to fix me good there's something about you that makes me feel angry and misunderstood Ahh oh ahh oh There's something inside you there's something about you I speak your every word Ahh oh ahh oh ahh oh ahh oh ahh oh

Blindfold
You better believe it ahh ahh You better believe it ahh ahh You better believe it ahh ahh You better believe it ahh ahh In a conversation talking of nothing we were drinking sweet wine comforting our one and only in our single business we have become jealous satisfied with our desolation wrapped in our vivid dreams I remember the two days that mean alot to me I remember the two days where every hour was a day every minute was a lifetime where the ocean was a sea and you dragged me into the mountains on a flimsy guarantee the stronger the man the stronger the woman if it ended now would you be willing I've given you everything I've given you nothing I used to think of angels but that's all gone I used to dream of love and kisses wanting to belong but I'd tear around the corners blindfolded to the world I used to think that candyfloss was only made for girls see how it feels for me do you believe in me? Hard-headed sense of failure in a narrow mind I never used to think about the hurt I left behind but now it falls upon me like winter snow now I turn the same corners when there's no place left to go the stronger the man the stronger the woman if it ended now would you be willing do you believe in me? this is my own private hour see how it feels for me this is my own private hour could you love me? could you love me? could you love me? could you love me?

No Escape From Heaven
I can see through your eyes to the back of your mind all you've said is fiction the blind leading the blind I'd like to take your clothes off and play for a while you'll hold my hand in summertime we'll walk for miles and you'd be mine hold my hand in summertime you are mine There's no escape from heaven try as you might there's no escape from heaven Lie on the floor don't open your eyes just listen to the sweetness of this lullaby break my heart in anger hit me in love push me into danger give me that shove hold my hand in summertime we'll walk for miles and you'd be mine hold my hand in summertime you are mine There's no escape from heaven try as you might there's no escape from heaven there's no escape from heaven try as you might there's no escape from heaven Hold my hand in summertime Hold me, hold me hold me like you used to hold me, hold me hold me like you used to

Coast Is Clear
Above my bed in this ugly room hangs the whisper of the sandman You can be my father for the love he has shown it's just a little to late it's never enough to swallow those pills now I'm sick and always will be Take it I don't want it you can have what you like just don't try to trick me to sleep then turn out those lights You can be my father for the love he has shown it's just a little to late it's never enough to swallow those pills now I'm sick and always will be Ah ah ah ah drains and radiators you can be my father drains and radiators for the love You can be my father for the love he has shown it's just a little to late it's never enough to swallow those pills now I'm sick and always will be Ah ah ah ah just when you thought it was alright just when you thought it was alright

The Colour Hurts
(Colour, colour..) It was the beginning The final curtain descends The doorway to dating Has revealed, it's potence The colour hurts, in this last birth of sins Why do you grow inside me It smells of dew as it spirals to victory it says Why do you grow inside me Leave me alone I was doing okay before But now you're here, hold my hand Now you've won, I understand The colour hurts, in this last breath of sins Why do you grow inside me It smells of dew as it spirals to victory it says Why do you grow inside me Leave me alone.. {It's a younger world for the complex is an eternity} The colour hurts, in this last birth of sins Why do you grow inside me It smells of dew as it spirals to victory it says Why do you grow inside me Send me some rebirth It's a destiny of sorts Smell of the earth

Frozen
In my eyes you smile like an angel blessed with love invest in life but in my heart you sound like a traitor blessed with sin invest in life In my heart and in my soul everywhere I go you are with me I can feel you everywhere a certain something in the air you are with me.. In your way you cry like a baby blessed with shame invest in life in the garden I will grow a hanging tree for all to know you are with me invest in life In my heart and in my soul everywhere I go you are with me I can feel you everywhere a certain something in the air you are with me.. In my heart in my soul everywhere I go you are with me

Zoo
She's had a psychotic dream for the last ten days she feels as if she's sinking in and out, in and out, in and out of phase she comes up for air she think she's a queen starts telling all the choirboys where she's been she dresses in black only for the occasion she thinks she's a negro but she's only caucasian she can't tune in she can't tune in she can't get off that bus she can't get off that bus she can't grab hold she can't grab hold she's a mess this girl and it's time you were told It's like watching my own dream this is not what it seems so calculated now that's infiltrated in the harshness of daylight I'm frightened by sunlight but I know those night-eyes will keep me from harm she can't tune in she can't tune in she can't get off that bus she can't get off that bus she can't grab hold she can't grab hold she's a mess this girl and it's time you were told Mamama mamama keep on keeping me from harm keep on keeping me from harm keep on keeping me from harm keep on keeping me from harm

Clipped
On the days we get together we talk in volumes and drink some coffee cook the numbers clear our minds forget our worries there untrue and unkind There's no truth it's instinct there's no lies that's gone too there's no truth it's instict there's no lies that's gone too All he says causes scandal I've heard it said that he's the original verbal vandal who steals your words clears out your mind There's no way you'll convert me There's no way that's for sure There's no way I'll get sucked in There's no way that's damn sure There's no way you'll convert me There's no way that's for sure Hopelessly reaching There's no truth there's no lies there's no way you'll convert me there's no way that's for sure There's no way you'll convert me there's no way that's for sure there's no truth there's no lies

Die Like a Dog
Curled up in a ball curled up when I fall I will play ball Out here in the hall I have seen it all out there when you call I won't play ball Peace in a world free from religion peace in a world where everyone gets heaven peace in a world free from religion peace in a world I like to see the satelites around me I like to see the satelites around me Peace in a world free from religion peace in a world where everyone gets heaven peace in a world free from religion peace in a world I'm just trying not to die like a dog end up alone wheezing from the smog I'm just trying not to die in vain gonna make my mark stake my claim Peace in a world free from religion peace in a world where everyone gets heaven peace in a world free from religion peace in a world I listen to my eyes click there colourful confession while the language of agression is on everybody's lips

Galaxy
He's got sugar on his lips and he knows that the sickness is his and he shows it he just shows it he'll give you the remedy without the chemical show you the picture without the scenery all he wants is a blow by blow by blow account always searching for the real thing scratching the surface getting nowhere my place has been stolen invaded by sharks covered in gutter as shiny as glass The pavement is soft and sweet the galaxy is so elite it won't say no it won't say yes it won't say no it won't say yes Crush me with your ice pick I am the queen I've come to take the sweetness and keep you down in my cave The pavement is soft and sweet the galaxy is so elite it won't say no it won't say yes it won't say no it won't say yes Everybody knows I see it in your eyes

Cherry
Respire my desire lean on me fall on me respond and it will be answered answered cos I am waiting for the stars to change so we will talk again I'm impatient for the sun to change so we can meet again He was well spoken and unconnected caught his tongue it became infected he could breathe venom into the heart of an issue he could stare right at you and never see you he could crush faith he could crush minds he's a cynic and he love's it he believe in it it's more than a man could ever want In his own image in his being like this leather glove could be could be could be I am waiting for the sun to go down I'm impatient for the stars to change
