The gates are
open, my eyes are wide -
burning the candle that keeps me alive
Going in
blind, going in blind,
The waters cold, cold, cold murder,
So bring it
back to me, bring it back to me and take me in...
She is warm, willing, deep and giving,
She is cold, chilling, painfully
forgiving,
Let it be wild, let it be warm, let it be everything.
Your lips move me, your eyes move me, colder than the rain,
Your arms hold
me, your body fold me deeper again,
So run with me, run with me, colder than
the rain.
She is wild, killing, so I start living
She is warm, thrilling, painfully
forgiving
Let it be wild, let it be warm, let it be everything
Your lips move me, your eyes move me, colder than the rain,
Your arms hold
me, your body fold me deeper again,
So run with me, run with me, colder than
the rain.
Every branch of your body has broken.
Every arch of your body has
spoken,
So bring it back to me, bring it back to me, and take me in.
Your lips move me, your eyes move me, colder than the rain,
Your arms hold
me, your body fold me deeper again,
So run with me, run with me, colder than
the rain.
The time has come to say goodnight feelings rest
assured
My words and thoughts are yours tonight just calling at your
door
Every breath is sacred now every second blessed
And all the time I
spend with you is heaven unconfessed
You are all I believe in, worth waiting for
All I believe in, everything
and more...
All the world is here tonight, what kingdom shall we reign?
Your loving
eyes fall from sight to capture once again
Are all your words hollow now? Is
stillness wht I've seen?
How skin of perfect stone can be beautifully obscene
You are all I believe in, worth waiting for
All I believe in, everything
and more...
To lie with, cry with, sleep, dance and fly with
We can soar throught the
heavens if we choose
You are all I believe in, worth waiting for
You are all I believe in,
everything and more
How much more must I take? How much more before I
break?
How much more...
We are all standing at the bottom of the sea,
We are
all staring skywards, what is it we see?
We see a ship sailing
westward,
A man running south, with all these crazy words spilling from his
mouth,
"He thinks he's a God - I think he's a tree"
So move over water, move over son,
Move towards the only point that's way
beyond the sun,
Move over water, move over son, as fast as we can we run for
the sun,
I'm getting blinded, I'm getting blinded
I gaze out across the ocean from the top of the world,
I find myself
laughing at the stones you have hurled,
As each of them hit me, on the back
of the head,
I realise the foolish things mankind has said,
"He thinks
he's a king, his Kingdom is dead"
So move over water, move over son,
Make the earth a paradise, don't get
burnt by the sun,
Move over water, move over son, is everybody weird am I the
only one?
I'm getting blinded, I'm getting blinded
Hey! Run for the sun...
Are you sitting comfortably in the palace of your home,
Forgetting all the
places where your mind still could roam,
Like the Great Wall of China, of the
Himalayan dawn,
The Forests of the Amazon where our lifeline is born,
"So you think you're a man - Breathe while you can"
Move over water, move over son,
Move towards the only point that's way
beyond the sun,
Move over water, move over son, as fast as we can we run for
the sun,
I'm getting blinded, I'm getting blinded
Step up, re-align yourself step back and I will come
clear
Step up, please do what I want you to
(Step Back) Why does it always
happen here...
The planets affecting my mind it feels like I'm fighting all of
Mankind,
but you are electrifying, yes, you are electrifying my mind
Step up, re-define yourself step back and I will come clear
Step up,
please do what I want you to
(Step Back) Why does it always happen here...
I find it hard to explain why the arms of my conscience you cannot
chain;
and out of the windows of lies steps a man in a gey suit with love in
his eyes
Step up, re-define yourself
Step back and I will come clear
Step up,,
please do what I want you to
(Step back) Why does it always happen here...
Heading out across the landscape believing so
many things
Hearing the sounds of summer fade
You start beating back your
winter wings
Every line, every curve of your body sings,
Cover me, save me, reach me,
raise me,
Every time we touch my body clings,
Cover, save me, reach me,
raise me,
There are places I have never been, worlds I've yet to dream
of,
May the stars in the sky match the colours of the eye
My love
I am alive in you, alive with you - you are,
Alive in me, alive with me
you are...
Ooh Ooh
Help me stand through the heavens and the heights,
Through the battles and
the nights we spend together...
together, together
And so we slide down the banks of the river, time will ease the
pain,
Reflections pass, like warriors we glide, you know I'll remain
Every
line, every curve of your body sings,
Cover me, save me, reach me, raise
me,
Every time we clash I hear you sing,
Cover me, save me, reach me,
raise me,
There are places I have never been, worlds I've yet to dream
of,
May the stars in the sky match the colours of the eye
My love, because
I am alive in you, alive with you - you are,
Alive in me, alive with me
you are...
Ahhh
ahhh
Look at me now I'm running faster, faster, faster
the clouds are alive the
clouds are alive
Look at me now
The sound I've found in the night is strong,
Do
you notice me where the light once shone,
To hell with your cities, your
suburbs and fields
Taste the air and see what it reveals,
We're alive,
don't you feel alive? why don't you feel alive?
Just breathe deeply now,
Breathe deeply -
Don't you feel alive; The flowers on the citynight drive
Almost there...
The sign of mine my life is long, remember me and where I come from,
To
hell with your flares, your flowers and robes,
Think of life as an abstract
pose,
We're alive, don't you feel alive? why don't you feel alive?
Just
breathe deeply now, Breathe deeply - Don't you feel alive, The flowers on the citynight drive
To hear, to hear that sound again,
The triumphant call that I heard back
then,
To hell with your pity, my body's gone cold
And all your words seem
a wee bit old,
Just breathe deeply now, Breathe deeply - Don't you feel alive, The flowers on the
citynight drive
We create dreams when we are alone,
Carve out
of words not marble or stone,
Sounds that are distant, broken like bone,
Though we fight against it we live and die alone...
I'm tired of waiting for fools to wake,
tired of relying on fortune and
fate,
I know you are present but please can't you wait,
Though we fight
against it, feel the tension ache,
How is burns will it never break...
Footsteps on the pavement feeling like I've never felt before
You wonder
what the words meant, you're touched by her
How can I recall - what you did
to me?
I can't forget the innocence that you and I missed,
Or all the
implications of a little child's kiss,
I know I was foolish but how could I
resist,
Though we fight against it, feel the tension ache,
How it burns
will it never break...
Footsteps on the pavement feeling like I've never felt before
You wonder
what the words meant, you're touched by her
How can I recall - what you did
to me?
You live and die alone...
You live and die alone...
Drive, Drive, Yes,
You've got to watch the TV and count the passing cars,
Dream inside a
memory, dance amongst that stars,
Laughing back tomorrow, choking back
today,
time is movign forwards we are going the wrong way,
What must I
do?
What must I say?
Anything is possible, all things come your
way,
All thing will come your way...
Speeding past the daylight, heading into dawn,
I cling to what I havne't
got,
Another life is born,
I'm laughing in my sorrow,
I'm choking back
the air,
Every time I see your face I realise I care,
So lay down your love and rest on me,
Lay down your love so it rests on
me,
Lay down your love
Drive, laugh, I'm down on my knees, well you'll be the last...
Laugh, cry,
down on my knees, well I'll tell you why,
Something else is missing, what is going wrong?
You said you would makit
it stop, not let the game go on,
I'm laughing in my sorrow, I'm choking back
the air,
Everytime I hear you cry I realise I care...
So lay down your love and rest on me,
Lay down your love so it rests on
me,
Lay down your love...
Lay down your love.
Do you wanna see me drive,
Do you wanna see me laugh,
Do you wanna see
me down onmy knees,
Well you'll be the last,
Laugh, cry, down on my knees,
well I'll tell you why,
Ooooh, ohhh, Ooooh, ohhh,
Oooh aahh, don't stop now, Oooh, aahh, don't stop now, Please
don't let me down,
Oooh aahh, don't stop, Oooh, aahh, don't stop, Please don't let
me down, Let me down, let me down,
|
Oooh aahh, don't stop, Oooh, aahh, don't stop, Please don't let
me down,
Don't stop, don't stop, Please, don't let me drown, Don't let me
drown, I can't swim without you,
Don't let me down, I won't let you down, I swear I won't let you
down
|
Here I am in the city where the air is getting thin
My throat
is growing tighter the walls ae closing in,
why are your words so strong
where did we go wrong,
You all look so familiar but I'm scared of what I see
Buildings stretching
skywards suffocating you and me
why are your words so strong where did we go
wrong?
From the bottom to the top they're not gonna stop you
Stronger,
stronger, stronger than life itself...
The song I sing the tune we play
you can hear my voice singing night and
day
but why are your words so strong where did we go wrong?
From the bottom to the top they're not going to stop you
It's 5.30am I want to leave I've got to go right now!!
See in, see out of the city
Tell me do you believe me?
I do I think I'm
a liar
I think I'm a liar...
Did you see that man beat his wife, she in love and
he in life?
Did you ever see a scar as deep as this one?
And see that
child walk to him, broken mind and battered limb
Did you ever see a divide as
deep as this one was? I can't bring myself bring myself to say it, I hope
you can
Did you
hear that man confess of secrets born in tenderness,
Did you ever hear a lie
as great as this one was?
So how can you face the regret time has scared but
shall forget?
Did you ever take a stand as great as this one was?
I can't bring myself to say it, I hope you can
Won't you say it, won't you
say it please
So you see that man rape his wife, she in love and he in life?
Did you
ever see a scar as deep as this one?
The more I touch
The more I see
The clearer it
becomes,
So find the fascination tree,
And see how the childish one
runs,
I want to know the way ahead,
I want to be sure,
I need to
realise you,
I need to know more -
The chain around my neck you see,
Is a consolation prize,
The time is
right, tonight we fight,
The child is in your eyes,
You needn't be ashamed
of me,
I will not do you wrong,
I never compromised you,
But I need to
move on -
The more you touch the more of me,
Who do you think I am,
You've found
the fascination tree,
Symon will do what he can,
He wants to know the way
ahead,
He wants to be sure,
He needs to realise you,
He needs to know
more -
Oh beautiful love explain, Why you've entered my body
again? How could I forget, When the years have coiled up around my neck,
Helpless and afraid. You used to think that I was brave, Now here is the shell,
Here is the slave...Are you waiting for the greatest escape of all, What do you
search for with innocent eyes? Are you waiting for the great escape, Or
something more? Try, try and find it. Pictures and scenes, All was well in our
life of dreams, Then I awoke as you touch me, touch me. In love and proud,
Forced to face fear as she cried aloud. That was the day, I cannot forget, This
nightmare of mine, Has not left me yet..Are you waiting for the greatest escape
of all. What do you search for with, innocent eyes? The great escape is near,
The great escape is here...
Up in the highrise watching the girls eyes, Waiting to hear
you, I am alive. Up in the highrisetonight where the fun lies, Waiting I fear
too...the elements rise. We're over the hill, its down to just luck, Nobody
cares when you're in this rut. We're over the hill, down and door shut, Nobody
gives when you're in this rut. They're coming out of the walls... They're coming
out of the walls tonight, They're coming out of the walls... They're coming out
of the walls tonight. Up in the highrise do you notice the neon eyes, They reach
in and hold you, I will control you. Up in the highrise where even the dog
cries, Reach from the ground...or men without sound, We're over the hill, down
on our luck, Nobody lives in this cardboard hut. We're over the hill, down and
door shut, Nobody gives when you're in this rut. They're coming out of the
walls...Coming out of the walls tonight. They're coming out of the
walls...Coming out of the walls tonight. They're coming out of the walls, By day
or by night. They're coming out of the walls...Set us free tonight. We're over
the hill, it's down to just luck, Nobody cares when you're in the rut. We're
over the hill, down and door shut, Nobody gives when you're in this rut. They're
coming out of the walls, Coming out of the walls tonight. They're coming out of
the walls... Coming out of the walls tonight. They're coming out of the
walls...By day or by night. They're coming out of the walls...Coming out of the
walls tonight. They're without sound...Highrise...Men without sound...
Are you in the mood, do you have the time? Whatever the
cards say tonight, will you be mine? Come and lay beside me, Our love is alive.
Let the wars of the day go by, And our senses will thrive, As we join together
can you feel it begin...So lay your hands on my soul. It's there to be taken
whole. Lay your hands on my soul, Your eyes are the door to the soul. Were you
here for me, As I danced alone? How could I tell you enough, Love fuels the
unknown. Night brings us together, Are we going to let it win? Love has taken
over us from the depths, Of it we swim, So we come together can you feel it
begin...So lay your hands on my soul, It's there to be taken whole. Lay your
hands on my soul, Your eyes are the door to the soul, Just lay your hands on my
soul...It's you and I together it's, you and I alone it's, You and I forever
lets, carve it in stone. We join together, can you feel it begin yeh...So lay
your hands on my soul, It's there to be taken whole. Are you in the mood, Do you
have the time? Were you here for me, As I danced alone...? Lay your hands on my
soul, It's there to be taken whole. Lay your hands on my soul, Your eyes are the
door to the soul...
There's a crack in the wall, I have never seen this one
before. But I'm glad to say that I am allowd to say, That this will be my finest
hour. Has anybody seen my magic tower? It stands a thousand feet tall, Words
cannot reach it, if only I could draw it for you. Pyramids and squares, glass
like chairs, Anything is possible to he who dares to...Come alive of the mind
over we'll go, Climbing the wall of doubt, don't you know. For tonight we could
reach it, When the insults are hurled. For tonight we could reach it, If you'd
only show the world...There's a gap in the wall. Through which any brave man can
carwl. To see the other side, To see this paradise glorified. This is my finest
hour...This is my magic tower. We lie, eyes to the floor, There I was, at the
holy man's door. I was ready to enter, ready to believe, In the comfort of time,
in the sycamore seeds. Come alive of the mind, over we'll go. Climbing the walls
of doubt don't you know. For tonight we could reach it, When the insults are
hurled. For tonight we could reach it, If you'd only show the world...Be whole,
be whole, be whole once more, Be whole, be whole, be whole, once more, I'll beg
no more. There's a God in the hall, He smiles and says, Begin again, stand don't
crawl. to see what he will hide, To see his paradise glorified, This is my final
hour..This is my magic tower. Come alive of the mind over we'll go, Climbing the
walls of doubt don't you know. Come alive of the mind we'll go, Climbing the
walls of doubt don't you know. For tonight we could reach it, If you'd only show
the world...Pick yourself up see what I really am, Flesh is alive in every soul
and man. Pick yourself up raise your eyes from the floor, Be whole, be whole
once more. Be whole, be whole once more, I'll beg no more, On the sycamore...
Face up to the facts, You won't get on with a mouth like that, Face up to the
facts, What you give out you will always get back. You dare to deny it, you mus
t let your body satisfy it, Here and now, here and now. Do you claim to try it,
reveal yourself to me, Face up to the facts...Let your body relax. I won't give
marks and I don't leave tracks, Let your body relax. I only come out when I ne
ed to do that. I would never deny it, It's the greatest thing and you must try
it. Here and now, here and now. Don't hide, steal or buy it, It's in your blood
... Face up to the facts... You must visualise it, set it loose and clarify it,
Here and now, here and now. Do you dare to try, reveal yourself to me. Face up
to the facts... A man will lie for his lines, In his natural crimes. To have g
uilt in these times, You must read between the lines. Face up to the facts, Fac
e up to the facts, You deny it, It's the greatest thing and you must try it, Her
e and now. Face up... to the facts...
Come into my mind, Step up to the glass, And see for yourself.
There's no reason to ask, The pleasure beckons, The thrill survives.
There's a fire in the house of cards, he cries.
It doesn't matter what the government line is,
It doesn't matter what the New York time is,
It doesn't matter what the hypocrites say,
Hizbollah is here to stay.
It doesn't matter what the hell my sign is,
It doesn't matter what your compromise is,
It doesn't matter what your politics say,
'Cos I don't listen to you anyway.
So open wide, What is really going on?
You've seen for yourself,
How my claims are rewarded,
My words are misquoted, And always distorted.
The Pleasure beckons, Feelings Rise.
There's a fire in the house of cards, he cries.
It doesn't matter what the government line is,
It doesn't matter what the New York time is,
It doesn't matter what the hypocrites say,
Hizbollah is here to stay.
It doesn't matter what the prominent crime is,
It doesn't matter what the circle line is,
It doesn't matter what the heretics say,
'Cos we don't listen to them anyway.
So open wide...Could you tell me what is going on?
The truth will come out, And all will be saved.
It's you in the spotlight, Not me who's been praised
The pleasure beckons, My angers alive.
There's a fire in the house of cards, he cries.
It doesn't matter what the government line is,
It doesn't matter what the New York time is,
It doesn't matter what the hypocrites say,
Hizbollah is here to stay.
It doesn't matter what the hell my sign is,
It doesn't matter what your compromise is,
It doesn't matter what your politics say,
'Cos we don't listen to you anyway.
So open wide...What is really going on?
Fire in the house,
The house of cards.
Have you ever seen a road so open and wide,
Every man swears one day they'll take this stride.
No lights to guide us, No lanes to keep us in.
Do you know the destination?
Welcome to the city of sin.
The City of Sin, The City of Sin.
The streets and lights have left us.
Where hve the bricks and mortar gone?
No windows to reflect our faces,
The crimes still linger on...Live tonight for pleasure.
Live tonight to win, Live tonight for pleasure.
Lose yourself within, The City of Sin.
Why have we survived, If everything we have has died?
The car in which we drive, Is burning holes in your starlit eyes.
Burning holes in your starlit eyes,
Burning holes in your starlit eyes.
It never is, it never was.
There never is, there never wa.
It never is, it never was.
A City of Sin, City of Sin, City of Sin.
Live tonight for pleasure,
Live tonight to win.
Live tonight for pleasure, darling.
Lose yourself within.
Drive tonight for pleasure,
Drive tonight to win.
Drive tonight for pleasure, darling,
Lose yourself within...The City of Sin.
I left my body and mind long ago.
I walk alone in the land of the spirit.
The devil has me by the back of the neck.
How I hope to claim everything in it.
Run, lady, run, lady run,
The day of the jackal has come.
Run, lady run, lady run,
The day is mine but I cannot see the sun.
The road is long and the earth is cracked.
We hold the hand of the whit men's lie.
The devil takes me to the windows of hell.
The angel smiles as she passes by.
Run, lady run, lady run,
The flood begins in kingdom come.
Run, lady run, lady run,
The day is mine but I will not have my fun.
Outsider, Outsider.
Another step on this hollow ground.
My body pleads for the soul and the spirit.
I need to know why the devil mocks.
The angel cries with everything in it.
Run, lady run, lady run.
The day of the jackal has come.
Run, lady run, lady run.
The day is mine, but I cannot see the sun.
Outsider, Outsider.
Heaven help me help myself, Heaven help me...
Heaven help me help myself, Heaven help me...
Outsider, Outsider.
I left my body and mind long ago.
I walk alone in the land of spirits.
I need to know why the people mock.
How I hope to claim everything in it.
How I hope to claim everything in it.
How I hope to claim everything in it.
How I hope to claim everything in it.
The Outsider.
I'm waiting, I'm waiting for a sign.
I'm waiting, I'm waiting for the right time,
to show you how I feel, to openly reveal...
I'm searching, I'm searching for those eyes.
I'm searching for the soul, for I know it never lies.
Would you hold me while you can?
Would you hold me like you've held no other man..?
So give me the strength to fight back.
Give me the strength I need.
Give me the heart of another man and I'll give you the love in me.
I'm waiting, I'm waiting for a sign.
I'm waiting, Waiting for the right time,
To cradle and provide, to openly decide.
So show me how you feel,
Tell me that love is real...
So give me the strength to fight back,
Give me the strength I need.
Give me the heart of another man and I'll give you the love in me.
Give me the strength to fight back.
Give me the strength to breathe.
Give me the heart of another man and I'll give you the love in me...
Just give me the strength to fight back,
Give me the strength I need.
Give me the heart of another man and I'll give you the love in me.
Give me the strenth to fight back,
Give me the strength to breathe.
Give me the heart of another man and I'll give you the love in me.
So give me the heart of another man.
Give me the heart of another man,
Give me the heart of another man,
And I'll give you the love in me.
Life has left me naked, she has stripped me to the bone.
I never felt I needed anyone and now I find myself alone,
But don't fight it, don't fight it.
It rains like fire.
Don't fight it, don't fight it, don't fight my desire.
A feeling has come, it has come to kill the pain,
Yes it rains down on me, the fire has come to heal again.
Her face will flash before me but I don't recognise,
I only see my own reflection, a thought that i cannot disguise.
But don't fight it, don't fight it.
It rains like fire.
Don't fight it, don't fight it, don't fight my desire.
A feeling has come, it has come to kill the pain,
Yes it rains down on me, the fire has come to heal again.
With the eyes of desire and the skin that moves the soul,
The feeling she brings me,
it's time that I started to let go of myself, of my senses.
Were my dreams aids for my defences?...
But life has led me back,
she has raised me from my knees,
She gives me a new life, a life without disease.
Don't fight, though it rains like fire.
Don't fight it, don't fight it, don't fight my desire.
Now the feeling has come, it has come to kill
the pain, Yes it rains down on me,
the fire has come to heal again.
With the eyes of desire and the skin that moves the soul,
The feeling she give me, it's time that I started to let go.
Time that I started to let go...
It's just like a dream,
Armchair trees filled with polystyrene.
And it's leaving the taste,
Of all this bitterness and human waste.
Am I really that cold,
I would sell myself when I'm already sold?
But I am the man who cries like a child,
And does what he can.
The Prophet.
On the prophet will never die.
The Prophet.
On the prophet in men's eye.
Was it you in my dream?
Did your arms become wings in a sky of apple green?
Have you noticed the sin?
There is so much more in our world than there's ever been.
But the light in your eyes,
Reminds me of home but I do not mean to patronise.
Are you ready to dance,
To fly with my words and cry for my circumstance?
The Prophet.
Oh the prophet holds up the sky.
The Prophet.
Oh the prophet can't satisfy.
The Prophet.
Oh the prophet will never die.
The Prophet.
Oh the prophet in man's eye.
The Prophet.
Oh the prophet holds up the sky.
The Prophet.
Oh the prophet can't satisfy.
