These Dreams Of You
04:09

|
I don’t care for your money
The fact is true that I
I miss you so completely every time you say goodbye
Well you might think that’s funny
That’s your point of view
I know that I can’t sleep at night for all these dreams of
All these dreams of, all these dreams of you
Goodbye my love I wish you well
I feel you’re close to me
Tomorrow comes and you are gone
I cry myself to sleep
I don’t have reservations
I wont pretend that I
Can give you everything to keep you here and satisfied
Well you might think that’s funny
That’s your point of view
I know that I can’t sleep at night for all these dreams of
All these dreams of, all these dreams of you
I'll leave an invitation
Leave it blowing in the wind
To be around
If you come back
Or you should call again
Well you might think that's funny
That's your point of view
I know that I can't sleep at night
For all these dreams of, all these dreams of
All these dreams of you
Dreaming all these dreams of you
Dreaming all these dreams of you
Dreaming all these dreams of you
Dreaming all these dreams of you

Deeper

The deeper the cut, the sharper the wound
Standing with the knife in my hand I bet I look such a fool
The further you get, the less you can move
There’s more to fear from what I could gain
Much more than what I could lose
When things turn black no one calls you back
You work on the limit so true
The deepest wounds you find will heal in time
But you must shake the knife from the wound
The deeper the cut, the sharper the wound
The deeper the cut
The deeper the cut, the sharper the wound
The deeper the cut
The deeper the cut, the sharper the wound
Standing with the knife in my hand I bet I look such a fool
If I never give in, I’ll never give in to you
It’s not the fear of losing at all
Its fear of losing to you
When things turn black no one calls you back
You work on the limit so true
The deepest wounds you find will heal in time
But you must shake the knife from the wound
The deeper the cut, the sharper the wound
The deeper the cut
The deeper the cut, the sharper the wound
The deeper the cut

After today you’ll feel better and laugh
And cling to your memories like frayed photographs
You can’t go to nowhere ‘cause nowhere is here
You still believe all of your twisted ideals
They rock you to sleep and they watch as you dream
In hope that you’ll never find out anything
Well if there’s a sting well it died in your arms
Beneath your veneer, your incredible charm
Look further out and you’ll see
The Devil and the Deep Blue Sea
The ocean is deep but the Devil is hard
And there’s no escaping no matter how far
You can’t go to nowhere ‘cause nowhere is here
You still believe all of your twisted ideals
They rock you to sleep and they watch as you dream
In hope that you’ll never find out anything
Well if there’s a sting well it died in your arms
Beneath your veneer, your incredible charm
I still believe one day you’ll see
The Devil and the Deep Blue Sea

Stages
04:02
|

|
Since she left, I’ve been acting awful strange
And all the things I used to feel seem just out of range
To an empty chair, into a pointless room
Been talking to myself and wishing she was talking too
All the things that I loved, now just make me blue
It’s killing me, this silence its like walking on the moon
Would it be so bad, if I could talk it through with you?
I didn’t get the chance with her and if I had, what could I do?
Doctor I’ve been thinking that I should be feeling better
But I’m searching for a cure that I can’t buy
You said it goes in stages; well I’ve been down here for ages
And I end up here no matter what I try
And I try, yes I try, oh yes I try
Since she stayed away, a year since her goodbye
All the things that used to make me laugh just make me cry
Wouldn’t be so bad if she was hurting too
But she walked into the party like a queen
I feel like a fool
Doctor I’ve been thinking that I should be feeling better
But I’m searching for a cure that I can’t buy
You said it goes in stages; well I’ve been down here for ages
And I end up here no matter what I try
Doctor I’ve been thinking that I should be looking better
But I’m searching for a ghost I’ll never find
Said you have to grieve it when somebody up and leaves you
I can’ let her go no matter what I try
And I try, yes I try, oh yes I try

Second Class
05:45
|
|||
|
You walk alone when you’ve been told
You’ll never win this war of nerves
Standing apart, that’s one bad start
And one false move and you’re dead
One false move and you’re dead
I’ve been here before there’s nothing new
There is no magic, no illusion
A trick of the light and one last fight
And one false move and you’re dead
One false move and you’re dead
You think if you look right through me
I would run and hide
Seems as if you never knew
What’s going on inside
Well I can see
You’re second class
I don’t need to ask about you
You play the part
We’ll tear your heart to pieces
You’re second class
You’re second class
You lost again you couldn’t tell
You never will you’ll never learn
Nowhere to go but full of hope
And one false move and you’re dead
One false move and you’re dead
When it comes the guilt will find you not at home
You hate me when you never know
What’s going on inside and out
You wear me out
Where are you when I need you now?

Sister Lisa
03:39
|
|||
|
Oh Sister Lisa now you’re on your own
I feel I’m missing all the love you ever showed me
I think at night how many people need you
Oh Sister Lisa did you have to go
Down to the harbour where the lights are waiting for you
You know it hurt to love you Sister Lisa
Sister Lisa did you fall did you see that after all
The world is all for one and you’re a stranger
Sister Lisa did you lie till you finally realised
There’s nothing you can do and I can’t change you
Oh Sister Lisa took her life you know
Yet all the time you said you wouldn’t leave me, don’t go
Don’t go
So mister please sir can I go
I’ve told you all you asked to know, my God are you crying
I’d rather face the Devil than you preachers
Sister Lisa did you fall did you see that after all
The world is all for one and you’re a stranger
Sister Lisa did care were you ever really there
There’s nothing you can do and I can’t change you

Her Diary
04:44
|
|||
|
She keeps her diary sealed with my fate
I want to bring her back to me I know it’s too late
In every page and every line can’t speak can’t lie
And every page and every time part of me dies
She walks through places that everyone knows
Her heart has never been here
Lost in the places her memories unfold
And you have no right to be here
Words of love and broken hearts slip from her hand
What you feel you can’t believe she cant understand
She walks through places that everyone knows
Her heart has never been here
Lost in the places her memories unfold
And you have no right to be here
When it goes its gone forever its just a matter of fact
Close the book its now or never
And I can’t get it back
I’d change my clothes I’d change my hair I’d change my face
But I can’t get it back
She said I’ve got a lucky star shining on me
Oh yeah I’ve got a lucky star
It’s too dark to see
She walks through places that everyone knows
Her heart has never been here
Lost in the places her memories unfold
And you have no right to be here
You have no right to be here
There’s just words of love and broken hearts

Walk Away
04:16
|
|||
|
If I could reach inside my mind
I’d take away the memories that tie me to you
It’s such a shame but I’d do it anyway
And while it’s on my mind
I’d take away the hurt from all the things you never said and done
If you know what I mean you must have been hurt too
I want to talk forever, you’ve got nothing left to say
Don’t want to hold you back but all you want to do is walk away
Walk away yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
If I could be a fly upon your wall, I could be so disappointed
You never mentioned me at all; vanity is such a killer
I want to talk forever, you’ve got nothing left to say
Don’t want to hold you back but all you want to do is walk away
Walk away yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
If I could reach inside your head, I’d probably do nothing
I’d feel so guilty just being there, what a wasted opportunity
I want to talk forever, you’ve got nothing left to say
Don’t want to hold you back but all you want to do is walk away
Walk away yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Its obvious it’s not enough for me to love us just enough for two
To everyone but, everyone, everyone, every one, everyone but
Everyone, everyone, every one, everyone but
Everyone, everyone, every one, everyone but
Everyone, everyone, every one, everyone but me

Prisoner
04:32
|
|||
|
Lost for days no escape
Tired of life and feeling useless
Who’s to say who’s to blame?
And if I could say
What the use is
I made this cage on black dog days
This darkness stays with whom it chooses
Who’s to say who’s to blame?
All I can say
It’s me that loses
If I could change, leave this cage
An empty stage in a million pieces
Who’s to say who’s to blame?
I’d burn my eyes than see this place again
Lost for days no escape
The prisoner stands
No one accuses
Who’s to say who’s to blame?
And if I could say
What the use is

Whole World Watching Me
03:35
|
|||
|
Seems like I’ve been waiting for the show
Waiting all alone, waiting far too long
I heard you say I really must be blind, but I’m not blind
It’s just that I can’t see what you want me to see
What you want me to hear, and what you want me to be
I’m like the face that dances in the flame
I’m the wind that blows the leaves across the grave
I’d like to show you something I could be
But how could I, how could I?
With the whole world watching me
Another day my friend where have I been
What did I see and will I call again
The road ahead is long and open wide
There’s no room for shade and there’s no room left to hide
I’m like the face that dances in the flame
I’m the wind that blows the leaves across the grave
I’d like to show you something I could be
But how could I, how could I?
With the whole world watching me
But how could I, how could I?
With the whole world watching me
