Emerging from my world Imagine living in a box And I won′t come up Until I′ve broken all the locks Slurring all my words Until something sticks But in this smoky universe My mind keeps playing tricks
And although, you′re the only home I know As if by magic, thoughts of you are gone And now, I′m keeping my head in the clouds And it′s not so tragic, if I don′t look down oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oooooo [x2]
Submerging from your world And back into my bliss A day rolled into one Is burning on my lips Blurring all your words Until they don′t exist And in a parallel universe It′s me you can′t resist
And although, you′re the only home I know As if by magic, thoughts of you are gone And now, I′m keeping my head in the clouds And it′s not so tragic, if I don′t look down oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oooooo [x2]
And although, you′re the only home I know As if by magic, thoughts of you are gone And now, I′m keeping my head in the clouds And it′s not so tragic, if I don′t look down oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oooooo [x2]
Please, please be my light filter Shine, make me a shelter To hide this love Makes you lose your sign Now the search rise is on its way And the flood lights are on my face All the shadows that I woke up in Are just my volatile second skin
My reflections are protections They will keep me from destruction My directions are distractions When you′re ready come into the light
Lines, design a pathway Shine, cut out the dark shapes To find, although I really tried Only time is a lover′s guide And now the ratings fall away And the stencils draw a face Our outlines in the sunset Are just a fragile silhouette
My reflections are protections They will keep me from destruction My directions are distractions When you′re ready come into the light
My reflections are protections They will keep me from destruction My directions are distractions If you leave me, I′ll go back to hide
My reflections are protections They will keep me from destruction My directions are distractions When you′re ready come into the light
My reflections are protections They will keep me from destruction My directions are distractions If you leave me, I′ll go back to hide
It′s been seven hours long And you′re shadow still hangs on You′ve been two weeks gone So tonight I′ll follow you home There are so many different ways Of collecting all the strays The ones that get away
Oh, fascinations, we play New sensations Oh, fascination, it′s been in my Frustration It′s been in my frustrations And I haven′t got the patience
These sheets are still warm This bed is our only home We make arrangements over the phone Where has all the conversation gone? There are so many different ways Of collecting all the strays The ones that get away
Oh, fascinations, we play New sensations Oh, fascination, It′s been in my, frustration It′s been in my, frustrations And I haven′t got the patience
Frustrations, sensations, and fascinations, and fascinations Frustrations, sensations, and fascinations, and fascinations
Oh, fascination, New sensation [repeat 2x] Oh, fascinations, we play New sensations Oh, fascination, It′s been in my, frustration It′s been in my, frustrations And I haven′t got the patience
My heart it melts like plastic I fell through the hole yesterday Your smile pulled me in like elastic I felt my mind detonate
Oh, I′ve made mistakes And you just say it′s just growing When I feel ashamed You tell me it′s just growing pains
We broke in two like a matchstick It burns in my soul every day, every day Your world was to me, so fantastic And help seemed so far away, far away
Oh, I′ve made mistakes And you just say it′s just growing When I feel ashamed You tell me it′s just growing pains When I′m crying out for change You tell me it′s just growing pains Oh, I′ve made mistakes And yes I know, it′s growing pains
The truth it feels like concrete I drove into this wall yesterday I wish I could be realistic But my children, my dreams, went away
I know I made mistakes You say it′s growing pains And when I feel ashamed You say it′s growing pains And I′m crying out for change You say it′s growing pains I know I made mistakes I know it′s growing pains
Oh, I′ve made mistakes And you just say it′s just growing When I feel ashamed You tell me it′s just growing pains When I′m crying out for change And Oh, I′ve made mistakes And yes I know, it′s growing pains
No wonder I′m scared To look in your eyes You′ve turned me away So many times You can take it away At any given moment It′s hard to believe While you′re in this disguise
So would you hold me please I′m trying hard to breathe I′m just surviving So would you hold me please I′m trying hard to breathe Stop me from crying
When I see you walking with her I have to cover my eyes (I have to cover my eyes) Every time you leave with her Something inside me dies (Something inside of me dies)
No wonder it hurts To sit by your side (Turned me away so many times) There′s a different song I can play you tonight (We don′t have to sit here in silence) We can break the pattern We can change the colour (It′s just a little sacrifice) You don′t need to worry about the others (It′s all in your mind)
So would you hold me please I′m trying hard to breathe I′m just surviving So would you hold me please I′m trying hard to breathe Stop me from crying
When I see you walking with her I have to cover my eyes (I have to cover my eyes) Every time you leave with her Something inside me dies (Something inside of me dies)
You put on your armour You put up defenses What are you on to? Cause I′m here to protect you So take it easy I make it so easy You can lay your head down And we′ll leave it ′til tomorrow
You seem to believe you belong to somebody else When you leave me alone in this world you know that I′m in hell Do you know what it′s like to be lonely and by yourself?
When your life is tangled You wear your disguises But what do you need to When I′m standing here beside you So take it easy I make it so easy You can lay your head down And we′ll leave it ′til tomorrow
You seem to believe you belong to somebody else When you leave me alone in this world you know that I′m in hell Do you know what it′s like to be lonely and by yourself?
Slipping through my fingers And inside another′s Tell me why won′t you turn back?
You seem to believe you belong to somebody else (You know what it′s like, you shouldn′t have to be told) When you leave me alone in this world you know that I′m in hell (It′s not enough and you′re running away) Do you know what it′s like to be lonely and by yourself? [repeat 2x]
You say it′s coming But I can′t see it at all You know me well, but I don′t know you at all No, I don′t know you at all It′s always just on the horizon So my hopes rise and fall You know me well, but I don′t know you at all No, I don′t know you at all
Early ′90s dйcor It was the day for We wanted to play But we had nothing left to play for Colourless color Once in fashion, soon to be scene [repeat 2x]
Been dreaming of blue skies New horizon and sides from my eyes The discovery of the unknown Is something to tell the folks back home I want to get away To feel the sun on my skin To feel it really Sinking in
Early ′90s dйcor It was the day for We wanted to play But we had nothing left to play for Colourless color Once in fashion, soon to be scene [repeat 2x]
Early ′90s dйcor It was the day for We wanted to play But we had nothing left to play for Colourless color Once in fashion, soon to be scene
Early ′90s dйcor It was the day for We wanted to play But we had nothing left to play for Colourless color Once in fashion, soon to be rediscovered
We can fight our desires Ouuhh but when we start making fires We get ever so hot Ouuhh whether we like it or not. They say we can love who we trust Ouuhh but what is love without lust? Two hearts with accurate devotions Ouuhh and what are feelings without emotions?
I′m going in for the kill I′m doing it for a thrill Oh I′m hoping you′ll understand And not let go of my hand
I had my hopes out on the line Ouuhh will they be ready for you in time If you leave them out too long Ouuhh they′ll be withered by the sun Full stops and exclamation marks Ouuhh my words stumble before I start How far can you send emotions? Ouuhh can this bridge cross the ocean?
I′m going in for the kill I′m doing it for a thrill Oh I′m hoping you′ll understand And not let go of my hand (Repeat)
Let′s go on to make me Let′s be cool to creating Up in darkness we can see And you′re not blind from the light from me
I′m going in for the kill I′m doing it for a thrill Oh I′m hoping you′ll understand And not let go of my hand
Been there, done that, messed around I′m having fun, don′t put me down I′ll never let you sweep me off my feet I won′t let you in again The messages I′ve tried to send My information′s just not goin in Burning bridges, shore to shore I break away from something more I′m not to, not to love until it′s cheap Been there, done that, messed around I′m having fun, don′t put me down I′ll never let you sweep me off my feet
Chorus: This time baby I′ll be Bulletproof (repeat)
I won′t let you turn around, I′ll tell you now, I′m much too proud To walk away from something when it′s dead Do do do your dirty worst Come out to play when you are hurt There′s certain things that should be Left unsaid Tick tick tick tick on the watch Life′s too short for me to stop Oh baby, your time is running out I won′t let you turn around And tell me now, I′m much too proud All you do is fill be up with doubt
Chorus: This time baby I′ll be Bulletproof (repeat)
This time, I′ll be Bulletproof (repeat)
Chorus: This time baby I′ll be Bulletproof (repeat) This time baby, this time baby This time baby, this time This time baby, this time baby Bulletproof
I′m the assessor Holding your hand It seems you have forgotten About your man Alone in the darkness My bed′s a different land Your touch intensifies And I′m in the quicksand I′m in the quicksand I′m in the quicksand
You′re the upsettor Stroking my hand What′s my position? I don′t understand Am I your position? Am I enigma? Oh, when you turn to me I′m in the quicksand I′m in the quicksand I′m in the quicksand
You, you moved into to my mind again, oh You, you′re walking around again and free, oh Oh, I can′t let you stay But I′m walking on broken ground again Oh, when will I learn? All you do is push me back in the dirt
Oo-oo-oo-oo Oo-oo-oo-oo
Aaah, Aaah I′m in the quicksand oo-oo-oo-oo I′m in the quicksand oo-oo-oo-oo I′m in the quicksand oo-oo-oo-oo I′m in the quicksand
Well tonight out on the streets I′m gonna follow you And tell you all about a scene that you would kill for You′re gonna love what′s running right in front of you But you won′t see it by the light of the sun Come out tigerlily, you′re caressing me I′ll take you up, I′ll turn you on, I′ll take your apathy I wouldn′t lie to you blossom, won′t you let it go I′m gonna give you what you want and don′t you know...that you...
I know you better than this I could be here when you call I′ll make you top of the list And in the crash of the dark I′ll be your light in the mist I can see you burning with desire for a kiss Psychobabble all upon your lips
They can sell it all they want but you cannot agree I don′t like the taste of damn morality You′ll find your bread and you butter where you fake it And put your face in the gutter of a snake pit But out communication is telepathy What you give is what you get out of us naturally And we can wait ′til the shadow rolls along And turn the page of the story that has long since found a home
I know you better than this I could be here when you call I′ll make you top of the list And in the crash of the dark I′ll be your light in the mist I can see you burning with desire for a kiss Psychobabble all upon your lips
Have you ever felt like you′re being followed? Or watched the ones that held your stare? Turned around to see who′s behind you to find there′s no one there Pra-lurking in the dark is someone who breathes you night and day There′s a friend who wants so much more But if they can have you, they′ll never let you walk away
And in the crash of the dark I′ll be your light in the mist I can see you burning with desire for a kiss Psychobabble all upon your lips
Love, love is like a stubborn youth That you′d rather just annoy I′m walking on a broken roof While I′m looking at the sky
It′s all false love and affection You don′t like me you just want The attention [repeat 2x] I′m not your toy This isn′t another girl meets boy [repeat 2x]
Love, love I′m in a smoky light I can never find the truth Boy, your touches leave me mystified I wish I could believe in you
Yes, it′s all false love and affection You don′t like me you just want The attention [repeat 2x] I′m not your toy This isn′t another girl meets boy [repeat 2x] I′m not your toy This isn′t another girl meets boy [repeat 2x]
It′s all false love and affection You don′t like me you just want The attention [repeat 2x]
[Instrumental Break]
I′m not your toy This isn′t another girl meets boy [repeat 2x] I′m not your toy This isn′t another girl meets boy [repeat 2x]
