Come Alive
03:14
|

|
There in your corner
you just stay as you are
Try not to shiver
you may show what you are
Leave no evidence
of your own poor existence
One of a kind
which will never make a difference
Oh heaven knows when
you will come alive
will you come alive?
When morning breaks upon you
and shatters all your dreams
You'll see your vague reflection
drifting down the stream
And someone else is standing
where yourself once used to be
You gave away your freedom
in your struggle to be free.

Real as it Feels

Come down with me to the land of make belief
I'll show you things that you thought you'd never see
Grass in the meadows, sands upon the shores
Real as it feels
Come down with me and hold on through the shades
Things can get peculiar if you catch the king of spades
Come down with me and hold on to the breeze
Dare yourself to question
Dare yourself to enter your own dreams
A pretty face is what you wear
To tell your tales, to make up stories
Oh but I don't know if that really suits you
Just come as you are

Something in the Sun
04:22
|

|
Something in the sun
make you lose your sense of measure
Something in the sun
makes it seem a lot of pleasure
But don't you know
you've got to have a go
Until you try you will never know
Something in the sun
It ain't right
Something in the sun
You don't seem to be there anymore
Something in the sun
Can you see where you are heading for?
But before you fade
to the other side
Lose your pretty head
to a borrowed mind
Something in the sun
it ain't right
There's nothing on
You're just too fucked up to get on

Mr. Nice

Mr. Nice getting through the day
Stand aside. you're getting in the way
Morning comes and morning goes
and you're still wandering the land of Oz
Morning comes and morning goes
and you still haven't figured where to go
Attention is what you need the most
Intention, You had some now it's lost
Winter comes and winter goes
and you still fuss about the word of God
Winter comes and winter goes
and you still haven't found your perfect guide
Perfection, We all could use a touch
Aggression, A double bladed knife
Anyway you throw the dice
whatever comes you're not the winning kind
Anyway you throw the dice
you always end up flat upon the ice
How many will you take before you learn?
How much will you waste before you burn?

King of the World
03:36
|
|||
|
Call on me and I will call on you, if you please
Talk to me and I will talk to you, it's a deal
I will set you free if you just let me be
king of the world
Lay your heart upon my empty hand
and you will rescue me
Oh you don't fool me now
with tears in your eyes
Come to me and I will always be when you need
Send for me and I will come to thee immediately
There will never be another one to be
a better king of the world
Lay some power in this mighty fist
and I will let you see

Someone
04:18
|
|||
|
Safe and sorry, young and weary
With the wrinkles all the same
No one's looking, no one's speaking
No one dares to take the blame
Yet there's got to be someone...
Pains and killers, conscious dreamers
Still, they seem to sleep their share
Fallen babies, maybe babies
Fill the spaces with the mares
Hey there lonely boy
Leave no room for things to fall
Hey there lonely boy
Let nobody in, however small

Wandering
04:05
|
|||
|
I'm scared to try
I was led to believe I'm not the kind
I left my home
Trying to find a decent place to call my own
But I was wrong
There is no place where I belong
and here I am, Wandering where I'm going now
Across the skies
I was drawn by a comet passing by
I sought the star that would bear
my name in flames throughout the dark
But it was long
Before I realized that mine's the star I'm on
And now I'm yours
I can't wait until it's time for us to come across
And time is time
It takes one second for one second to go by
and it's too much
I feel the fire burn my senses all inside

I am a Dream
04:11
|

I had a dream
and she was sitting by me
I asked her who she was
I am the dream
you spend a lifetime chasing
looking for a trace in every face you see
I am a dream, that's all I'll ever be to you
And as she spoke
her eyes were looking through me
My guard was crystal clear
You'll learn to know
that for a little of me
you'll have to compromise to realize your need
I am a dream, that's all I'll ever be...
Without fixing on a guiding star
you never really know where you are
an empty heart won't get you far
Up then she stood
she said the dawn is coming
I must be on my way
And I awoke
rain tapping on my window
Words from the sky that multiply in waves
I am a dream, that's all I'll ever be to you

Diamonds

The morning dew rests on her head
She turns her face towards you
She shivers slight
She feels it always with your first ray of light
Round and round, you unveil the ground
and the queen of darkness sheds her gown
And her laughter is ivy
on the pounding of your heart
and your tears fall around me
like diamonds from the sky
And through the clouds of rain
you send her rainbows every now and again
For April days
To wear when you have withered winter away
sway away, across the milky way
dancing to the rhythm of the day
Again the night is queen
and wraps a velvet shadow over the green
With a million eyes
you watch her sleep awaiting dawn with a sigh

Red

You've got the monster's eyes
You've got the monster's breath
You can have me running
You can haunt me only 'till I wake
You're just a thing of the past
You're just a face in my mind
You can hold me under
'till I'm old enough to forget
Night and again I lay awake in my bed
and looking out of my window
I see the moon turn to red
and I can offer no resistance 'cause I know
Now it's time to go
You've go to be the one (We're invincible)
You are the evil one (We are in control)
You will never cease you will find no peace (Under the sun)
You have me where you want (There is nothing we don't touch)
I know your heart is not for sale. Stay Away

Talk to Me
04:04

Wild horses after me
I'm standing by a shady tree
I look around what do I see
The muses gather at my heels
The fruit of fate is ready to pop
and when they will they'll never stop
Words whispered in my ear
loud and clear, now you can talk to me
Oh what monstrosity
The mirror lied again to me
I was betrayed now I must flee
The lady hunter's at my heels
I happened by a stream where she bathed
But was it I or she who said
I know you'd come to me
eventually, now you can talk to me
You know there's nothing new under the sun
and everything you do has already been done
Dreams and reality
have joined to play their tricks on me
And I'm out seeking sanctuary
Am I my own mind's refugee?
The writing is up there to see
But when I look the wall caves down on me
Sweet dream won't you come to me?
I'm ready here, now you can talk to me

Fred is a martyr
He trades his body for a better soul
Now he's a mortal
Well, it seems good souls die too
He's had about a thousand lives
Never mind, he'll get it right next time
Flora's a prophet
She can tell what is next to come
For a little profit
she will add some good news Flo
She's getting a bit predictable
Never mind, she'll get it right next time
Rob is a waiter
Waits around for his ship to come
Now he's a waitress
So he reckons he's got a better chance
He's on a raft but he can steer
Never mind, he'll get it right next time
Eleanor Knows Everything...
Alice has gone far enough
so she became a nun
But she couldn't live too long
on her own without some wicked fun
Now I hear she's back in town
Never mind, she'll get it right next time
Now all you people out there in the mud
feeling odd with the strange secrets you hide
You may think you're singular
But in fact you're just like everyone
So come on in and join the fun
Never mind, we'll get it right next time
