Running away, running away Running away forever It was her only chance of finding home Running away, running away Running away together... With only thoughts of finding home I'll wait for the ocean to rise up And meet me as it rose up before (I'll know the time) I'll wait for the ocean to rise up And greet me as it rose up before (I'll know the year) Because you're never alone ...Even when you're alone You're never alone... Watch the seventh wave Running away, running away Running into the weather With only thoughts of finding home Running away, running away Running away forever I realize I'm on my own On my way pass it on On my way pass it on I'll wait for the ocean to rise up And meet me as it rose up before (I'll know the time) I'll wait for the ocean to rise up And greet me as it rose up before We're never alone Even when you're alone We're never alone... watch the ocean

Winter hides the dead Just like summer ends too soon Springing forth the new knowing Autumn is the tomb And I'll wait for you 'cause it's waiting for you Living hides the dead just like Suns and earth and moon Springing forth the new knowing Flowers need to bloom And I'll wait for you 'cause it's waiting for you Unsure? Well, here's help with the wait The heavens move and the earth will quake And now god has failed and a metaphor There's only awe forever more Life is all dynamics Life is all... dynamics There''s life in all dynamics Life is all dynamic Unsure? Well, here's help with the weight There's only "god" for "heaven''s" sake There's only one key to unlock the door You must get by the metaphor (God help our mother... love one another!)

Cold blue waves Cold dead sky See in the sea what I need to be Cold blue waves Cold blue mind... (hear them talk about) Cold dead mind See in the sea what is and what will be Every dream I have wants me to stay Every night I try to find a way I hide nowhere They hide in my world I have nowhere to go Dreams come as they... Sleep comes as it... Dreams come as they do

Time will be on my side No looking back this time Time will be on my side No looking back this time All that I've known is gone Time to be moving on...

Who's the weakest now? Caught up in the wire I'm already gone Who's the weakest now? It's the grey days that I'll remember the most It's the grey times in the water Before morning I won't be alone Think of me at night Send my love to home I'll be alright It's the grey days that I'll remember the most It's the grey times in the water Before morning And it's only tonight that I'll be able to leave And it's only the weak That cry for me in morning Because tonight there will be no sleep Tonight it comes for me Please, help them understand I've become the voices in the fan Goodbye

From my world, I bring you greetings From our world, I bring you greetings It's so hard to tame them It will be so hard to prove them wrong I believe we'll lose our world for them I believe we'd throw up arms before them And bore them So call it home

Jesus, here lies my brother Tortured and blown Stretch for the heavens and go ...I watch him go Here it comes Jesus was a poor boy Jesus was a poor boy "It's justa spring clean for the May queen" I'm coming home And this one's for the life This one's for the funeral in the rain And if only for tonight This one's for the funeral in the rain The day's gone and the year's gone And I don't know when I'm coming home I can't hold on to what I've had When what I've had There's nothing left at all... So this one's for the life This one's for the funeral in the rain And if only for tonight Close your eyes and try to sleep again... A world away, you turn away I'm wide awake, and I don't need your home Tell me why he went, it seems to be An element to this mystery It's so cold today, so I get away, and I'm left behind with nothing but words...

1/ Not one of the better days Nighttime, turn around Lonely is the city tonight Nighttime, all around Lonely in the city tonight Grey people stare at a static sky (as you will) Ours is not to question why Same thing, every time It always seems to need what I'm not To all the hopeful ones: Nobody gives a fuck what you've got I only wish that I could pray to god (but you will) Stay longer Please don't leave me alone Bastard, mother, father, no... Time passed quicker than you will ever know And they can push me harder But you know I'll never go And they will justify it, but you know It will take them slow 2/ The girl from blue city The lights from across the harbour And the boys are out on the corners Sex in the neon basements (red and smelly) And don't feel a thing (it's too cold to worry) So in the corner by the dock Where there's no light It smells like piss but no one knows And right now just to sleep would be alright ...Feel old, gone where the feelings go ...Gone now in a field of green Gone where feelings go...

Question Leapt like dog from man Terminate high thinking Known in your prophecy Sun Son Sun it shifts, and brittleness subsides To sleep Sleep away One comes, the rain will always be And things I am Are things that should not be They laughed at me but we never bothered My friends and I There were no others Now it comes Bolt across the blue Shadows dance over the land Walls high, water deep Brick and steel gathering speed Guess it's just a feeling Guess it's just a feeling Rain may come The rain may never be In things you are Are things I need to be My friends were there but they never bothered Now there's you and I and There are no others It's like when death becomes musical It's musical It's like a death becomes musical Musical And it comes... To make sure that he will never rise And the groans from the bellies Have never cried this hard And the eyes of the wicked ones Have never been full of dust In the middle of the sea it waits... Closer Home, nor anywhere on Earth on that final day will anyone be apart One Schooled Together Towards the sea And we may drown, fly, fall from faith But the pain won't be realized Because the emotions will hit as god should And the mountains will offer no shelter And the clouds will be no cover No matter where we run Don't die on me Don't go away When I need you here In my need The rain will come The rain will always be In things I am Are things that have to be My friends have come and I never bothered Myself and I There is no other It's like a death becomes musical It's musical

Once when I was young, I used to dream for hours and hours I'd dream a world that wasn't small... And I'd travel to a valley where under trees and earth I'd set my girl... ...And I knelt down by her head And lay roses in her hair and I kissed her gently... But this is what you are As the sun sets in my eyes I know... I know I know I know I know I know And I know this one's the light And the worm inside of me Is the oldest wound that I've nursed along ...So don't try to get inside These things inside are wrong, things beyond things It's sick now It's rotten to the core, its eyes bulge and gaze at me... ...Lovingly... And I remember this smell from my dreams except it was sweeter then... And even in this room, where I used to lock my secrets It's starting to smell just like my friend And I told you not to breathe, so now I sit and watch the rain, I know I know I know I know I know I know I know I know And I know this one's the dark And the woman inside of me, is the oldest wound that I've nursed along... So don't try to get inside These things inside are all just things
