I was never alone in the middle of the lake, I was always outside of my mind
And I never dreamed a dream I liked
And in the common rooms I cried
In Rock & Roll there’s a mighty long fall, there’s a mighty loud call
I live my life in the middle of the night, my breath goes up and down counting time
By the light of day I fade away
And in the commons rooms I cry
And Rock & Roll you call my name, you call me to the stage
where I sing my little songs of love and pain, winds of change, or simply singing, I’m singing in the rain.
You make it worth living this terrible life
I was burnt by the sun, frozen in ice
I was dead on arrival, missing in action, living a fraction
And in the common rooms the toil takes it toll
And Rock &Roll can you save my life? Can you make me live forever? Save my life.
I sing my songs of love and pain, winds of change or simply singing, I’m singing in the rain.

Getting Older

I’m getting older, I need your shoulder
I need your love and I need your blood
I want your honey, I’ll take your money
I’ll pay you back, I’ll get the cash.
With you my life has begun.
I was on the run.
We’ve got the time its take to burn out the sun and the hearts desperately undone.
I’ve been so afraid. My body’s burnt and laid out on a table at my wake.
And the radio’s on
It’s playing my song
it’s the one that will take us to the end if we defend our love and our souls we mend.
Can you hear my words? Can you feel my worth? Can you read my mind and share the rest of time?
I was making my own bed, I was picturing my death
I was lost in a fire and you saved me with your desire.
Can you hear me now? It’s time to take a bow out of this last life born of sacrifice.

I cried only one tear for us today and i will wipe it away before the day breaks
and there is love in every part of me I know but the key has fallen deep into the snow
so when the spring comes I will find it and unlock my heart to unwind it
and love will be reborn
and love will be reborn
I take the throne and throw away the crown and weave flowers in my hair from all around
and the injustices I’ve heard I will swallow and reform the words to birds to undo the sorrow
and love will be reborn
and love will be reborn
Can you hear my heart? It’s calling out your name
Can you hear my heart? It’s dying in your flame
the city is gone it’s gone it’s no longer there, the walls have fallen down every where
and love will be reborn
From the ruins there will come a new moon a new born sun (son)
we’ll drink the dew from the flowers hands
and ride on winged back to the new land
and love will be reborn

Being Right
04:36
|
|||
|
I woke up with every good intention
I wanted to be a star
I wanted to light up the night
and drink water from a reservoir
It’s a minecraft to living this life and it’s hard not to be alarmed
I woke up in a situation
I should have done some meditation
instead I took your medication
and walked over to the police station
I want to do right.
I want to re-love tonight
Being right is not worth it
and I see the light on the curtains in the dark
There’s a peace-train pulling in the station
I finally got me a reservation
I’m one breath away from killing you.
I want to re-love, re-love
I want to do right tonight
Being right is not worth it
and I see the the light on the curtains in the dark
Call me, call me Victoria tonight
Call me, call me Gloria for the last time

Report Card
06:06
|
|||
|
Baby I was there for every second, I made your little bed, I washed your little head, I made what you were fed but now I walk the empty floors, looking through these empty drawers and everybody knows it’s you I’m looking for
If I knew then what I know now then love would not have lived and I could have gotten out.
Bring me your report card I want to read it again
while I put you empty clothes into an empty bin
I can hardly make it through my gin
without crying a river and wanted it to end.
Jesus is love. Sent from above .
But I like the wine and love making passes the time but it ain't you-your little hands, your precious eyes, your growing feet, feeling’ the heat, walking away from me
It ain’t me my baby love that conjures up above and captures the secret stone that makes everybody love
and I hope you don’t miss me as much as I miss you, cause my heart is always broken and I don’t you to feel the way I do.
We’re born and we die alone but until then I want you home and every night you’ll be be under the stars with me.
If I seem sad, it’s because I am.
Bring me your report card I wanna read it again
while I put your empty clothes into and empty bin
I can hardy make it through my gin
without crying a river and wanting it to end.

Body And Soul
05:16
|
|||
|
Run into the chapel, light up every candle,
I fall to my knees I say “God please”, what can I do?
90 seconds later, both hands round my neck I plead “Oh Man take your hands off”, what can I do?
I’ve got an 800 number I like to call, I’ve got an 800 number I like to call
they ask me if you caused the fall
Instead I tell them my dream
You’re lying, you’re crying
I’m holding your hand but I want to let go
but you’re dying, I’m screaming.
My fingers are slipping oh I want to let go- for my Body and Soul
for my Body and Soul
90 days later, run into the castle
I grab what I can-I take the can, I take the kids shoes. I’m living the blues
I changed my locks, I changed my number. I’m living in a slumber. I started smoking again.
I had another dream
We’re kissing, we’re touching, I’m touching you you’re touching me
oh but I’m bleeding, oh and I’m bruising
my fingers are slipping, I want to let go
for my Body and Soul
my Body and Soul
Don’t fuck with my kids
you can take my money
you can take my house you can take my honey
your angry inch packs a mighty punch
I got my Body and Soul
I got my Body and Soul.

My eyes were in the dark when i saw you and yours were shining like stars when i saw you
we were both a little drunk when i saw you and there were holes in heart when i saw you
the doors were all locked when i saw you and the curtains were drawn down when i
i was living alone
we all live alone
i was hitting a wall when i saw you and you were living in the park when i saw you
i got naked right away when i saw you and my love was like the rain when saw you.
your hands were in your pockets when i saw you and i emptied out my locket when i saw you
i was living alone
we all live alone
do you want to live alone together?
do you want alone with me?
i put my cards on the table so i could have you
so you could lick my wounds and i’ll be your fool
now i’m picking up fallen birds from the trees
like a queen you give me love (fit me like a glove) on your knees
all these honeysuckle trees they make me believe in everything
endless dreams of love
sing me like a dove, ring me like a bell, play me like a drum
crazy love
crazy in love.

Justice
04:39
|

Can you hear me calling from across the room
like love birds sing in June like church bells ring at noon.
I guess I’m wondering if love can conquer all, if it will catch me when i fall and carry me through the halls of
Justice
where are you?
I’m waiting
I was torn and taken away from the light
stripped of my human right both hands bound I couldn’t fight
when the judges javelin (gavel) fall on my head and my heart a terrible choir will start and carry me through the streets to
Justice
where are you?
I’m waiting
you’ll find in the Garden of Eden
I’m not sinning, I’m just singing
where are you my love?
I was almost broken but there is new blood running in my veins
I will capture and take the reins and ride on chariots of fire
to Justice
where are you?
I’m waiting
you’ll find me in the Garden of Eden.
I’m not sinning, I’m just singing
where are you?

Sometimes
04:10
|

Sometimes every once in a while there’s a vision I want to appear
Sometimes every once in a while there’s a sound I want to hear.
I know, every once in a while I feel the things I fear
sometimes every once in a while you are not near
I know I’ll never believe in you again
like I never touched your skin
like my voice was a little too thin
like my love was not that strong
How long does this go on?
Sometimes every once in a while I get the feeling that I just don’t care
Sometimes every once in a while there’s love in the air
I know every once in a while you’re bound to break my back
but sometimes every once in a while I’ve learned to fight back
I know I’ll never believe in you again
like i never touched your skin
like my voice was a little too thin like my love was always wrong
How long does this go on?
My love is not easy, it’s like a child, it’s mean and wild.
but you break my heart -tearing it apart
How long does this go on…

Rainbow

Why can’t I be a rainbow? And live only for seconds and die forever young.
Why do I have to go on? For the the kids and the neighbors, for love and for song.
You’ve got me running around loosing ground changing towns like a clown I was kicked I was kicked to the ground
Stop playing me like play doh. why don’t you move back to Mars take my car it’s been paid for.
I’ve been working hard at changing the stars, I have altered my own ego.
Stop bringing me down can’t you hear the sound of angels calling, angels singing
Why can’t I be a river? And run forever
and empty my heart and my head into the sea (see) me for who I am not the tricks that you play or the grandstand.
You’ve got me running around loosing ground changing towns like a clown I was kicked I was kicked to the ground oh yeah.
Stop playing me like play doh. why don’t you move back to Mars take my car it’s been paid for.
I’ve been working hard at changing up the stars I have altered my own ego.
Stop bringing me down can’t you hear the sound of angels singing?
The seeds have all been sown I’m growing up to be famous
everybody knows from your head to your toes that your shameless
you can rain on my parade it’s been rain on for decades
stop bringing me down can’t you hear the sound of angels singing?

Falaise de Malaise
03:24

Tu n’avais aucun remords seulement le besoin de mon corps.
si jamais t’était pour me dire tu ne souffriras pas mon sourire.
on n’aurait jamais du s’installer dans l’autre mais ma chaire a vite devenue la votre.
C’est ma ville mais c’est ton style de m’arracher les droits et de changer les lois.
Come on tell me that you love it was late at night when we fight
et que ma vie soit vide, ce remplis de fourmis qui me poursuivent dans la nuit
It was crazy in the dark and there were lots and lots of sparks.
Des caillots de malheur dans mes veines, du sang dans la laine, des scènes figées dans la peine
tire les canons, déchire les chaines.
l’orage de toi et moi va être spactaculaire comme les feux d’artifice dans les aires
mais ceux qui éclatent a l’intérieur vont bruler now yeux et voler new voeux.
Come on tell me that you love it was late at night when we fight et que ma vie soit remplit de fourmis qui me pursuivent dans la nuit
je grimpe les falaise de malaise dans la nuit
remplit de pluie, remplie la nuit
tire les canons,
déchire les chaines, rempli mes veines de haine.
