Shihad
Single • 1997
So the world was waiting As you headed on out the door Just to trip you up and spit you out Well I can tell just what you're thinking I'll be there to catch you falling out your tree tonight Relax your mind, let it slowly float away tonight Forget about the day The world sits on your shoulders Looks like an ugly weight to bear Almost lost you underneath there Well I can tell just what you're feeling You should let it go 'cause we can start again tonight Relax your mind, let it slowly float away tonight Forget about it, it's a day away It's already a day away

Thanks for the fast lane time Burning up suits me just fine It's a pleasure to know you I feel sad and lonely too But the place I'm from Well, it's hidden away Hit the sack as you start your day What's that you say? You're man, if you only knew I'll take you there It's like nowhere Come alive every time I taste the air So we're at the bottom of the world Well I don't care Well I don't care So your money talks And you drive fancy cars But you can only drive them so far You got a million choices You're a nation of diminishing voices I don't mean to put you down You got the big cities, you wear the crown All eyes on you, is that enough to keep you satisfied? Taste the air It's like nowhere I come alive every time I taste the air So we're at the bottom of the world Well I don't care No I don't care Well I, I don't mean to put you down You got the big cities, you wear the crown All eyes on you, is that enough to keep you satisfied? You got a million choices You're a nation of diminishing voices, yeah You got a million choices And all eyes on you

A blanket settles on my backyard The silence makes me lazy Electricity eats the bain Fill my head with novocaine Red rage on a cool blue day and I had to fight to loose my way Would you like to buy a flower? Would you like to see me crawl? In the penny arcade with the china cups The waitress does not love me She has no sympathy She's been here since a quarter to three Take away the bloody system Take away the bloody sun I'm gunna put a hook into the fish that spawned you Watch it drowning in the twentieth century Oh, do the headless chicken Altogether nothing is clicking We're not safe in mother's arms Look out You nearly missed me You nearly missed the point The summer of love is over So get a job Buy a car Eat shit Well I can't find the reasons for this dumb thing anymore One of these days and it wont be long It's gunna be easier to get things done Tired Of happy Waste not Want not You could stay right here with me You could stay right here with me But you run back to mother's arms Who knows what goes wrong? Disgustingly Dirty Life's the party That I could leave You could stay right here with me You could stay right here with me But you run back to mother's arms Who knows what goes wrong? Red worm at the same old school Always laughs at accidents You see them everywhere Punching bone with niggers and faggots The gentleman leaves, wants to get to the world I film to see them in the afternoon Telling the rising sun Violence in the law of the smoking mirror And those boys who go through so much trouble To be Rasputin's double But look so queer behind the big guard dogs With the girls in the mud you are weeping sores You called and you found me out You left a word of advice Don't make fun of people with guns Don't tell lies to people with knives You nearly missed me You nearly missed the point Oh, do the headless chicken Altogether nothing is clicking You're not safe in mother's arms Look out

Wrapped up. Spat out in your self doubt Should I rip my heart out Pack it up and send it to you Things said in anger Said for gain Said to cut down I'll never hear again Well a part of me sees it all too clear But another part still burns For the safety, for the comfort But our hate outgrew our love and ate it I can see it started years ago And I recognise your pain But I can't forget the innocence That you've taken from me Now I see you But I can't hear you No - I can't hate you No - And I don't want to break you down There's just some things that I want to tell you Now that you're not hear to drown me out I've just got to break through I collect the poison as it spills from your mouth Savour the taste so that I may work you out When affection becomes affliction Let it go Been watching for far too long Far too long to get this wrong I've got the scars to prove it Snap straight back and I'm here to use it Delay the memory of the facts and what's outside Left with your mind, the only place to hide 'cause your so bitter inside
