Sailling through the tunnels In the morning by yourself There′s a very special feeling True sensation all is well If you stand and reach your arms out wide Close your eyes and try to fly It′s an underground illusion Tricking you from side to side
We knew all the answers And we shouted them like anthems Anxious and suspicious That God knew how much we cheated
It can′t come quickly enough And now you′ve spent your life Waiting for this moment And when you finally saw it come It passed you by and left you so defeated
Skyscrapers rise between us Keeping me from finding you If the concrete architecture Dissapeared there′d be so few Of us left to navigate and Defend ourselves from the tide It′s an underground illusion Tricking you from side to side
There′s no indication of What we were meant to be Sucking up to strangers Throwing wishes to the sea
It can′t come quickly enough And now you′ve spent your life Waiting for this moment And when you finally saw it come It passed you by and Left you so defeated
Wake up in the morning with a head like ?what ya done?′ This used to be the life but I don′t need another one. Good luck cuttin′ nothin′, carrying on, you wear them gowns. So how come I feel so lonely when you′re up getting down?
So I play along when I hear that favourite song I′m gonna be the one who gets it right. You better know when you′re swingin′ round the room Look′s like magic′s solely yours tonight
But I don′t feel like dancing When the old Joanna plays My heart could take a chance But my two feet can′t find a way You think that I could muster up a little soft, shoop devil sway But I don′t feel like dancing No sir, no dancing today.
Don′t feel like dancing, dancing Even if i find nothin′ better to do Don′t feel like dancing, dancing Why′d you break down when I′m not in the mood? Don′t feel like dancing, dancing Rather be home with no one when I can′t get down with you
Cities come and cities go just like the old empires When all you do is change your clothes and call that versatile. You got so many colours make a blind man so confused. Then why can′t I keep up when you′re the only thing I lose?
So I′ll just pretend that I know which way to bend And I′m gonna tell the whole world that you′re mine. Just please understand, when I see you clap your hands If you stick around I′m sure that you′ll be fine.
But I don′t feel like dancing When the old Joanna plays My heart could take a chance But my two feet can′t find a way You think that I could muster up a little soft, shoop devil sway But I don′t feel like dancing No sir, no dancing today.
Don′t feel like dancing, dancing Even if i find nothin′ better to do Don′t feel like dancing, dancing Why′d you break down when I′m not in the mood? Don′t feel like dancing, dancing Rather be home with no one when I can′t get down with you
You can′t make me dance around But your two-step makes my chest pound. Just lay me down as you blow it away into the shimmer light.
But I don′t feel like dancing When the old Joanna plays My heart could take a chance But my two feet can′t find a way You think that I could muster up a little soft, shoop devil sway But I don′t feel like dancing No sir, no dancing today.
Don′t feel like dancing, dancing Even if i find nothin′ better to do Don′t feel like dancing, dancing Why′d you break down when I′m not in the mood? Don′t feel like dancing, dancing Rather be home with no one when I can′t get down with you
It′s not easy having yourself a good time Greasing up those bets and betters Watching out they don′t four-letter Fuck and kiss you both at the same time Smells-like something I′ve forgotten Curled up died and now it′s rotten
I′m not a gangster tonight Don′t want to be a bad guy I′m just a loner baby And now you′re gotten in my way
I can′t decide Whether you should live or die Oh, you′ll probably go to heaven Please don′t hang your head and cry No wonder why My heart feels dead inside It′s cold and hard and petrified Lock the doors and close the blinds We′re going for a ride
It′s a bitch convincing people to like you If I stop now call me a quitter If lies were cats you′d be a litter Pleasing everyone isn′t like you Dancing jigs until I′m crippled Slug ten drinks I won′t get pickled
I′ve got to hand it to you You′ve played by all the same rules It takes the truth to fool me And now you′ve made me angry
I can′t decide Whether you should live or die Oh, you′ll probably go to heaven Please don′t hang your head and cry No wonder why My heart feels dead inside It′s cold and hard and petrified Lock the doors and close the blinds We′re going for a ride
Oh I could throw you in the lake Or feed you poisoned birthday cake I wont deny I′m gonna miss you when you′re gone Oh I could bury you alive But you might crawl out with a knife And kill me when I′m sleeping That′s why
I can′t decide Whether you should live or die Oh, you′ll probably go to heaven Please don′t hang your head and cry No wonder why My heart feels dead inside It′s cold and hard and petrified Lock the doors and close the blinds We′re going for a ride
When you′re standing on the side of a hill Feeling like your day may be done Here it comes The strawberry smog Chasing away the sun Don′t let those precious moments fool you Happiness is getting you down A rainbow never smiles or blinks It′s just a candy-colored frown
You were going on at half-past seven Now it′s going on a quarter ′til nine All the angels want to know Are you lost or treading water? And you′re going on your fifteenth bender But you′ve only got a matter of time Yes we′ve all got seeds to sow Not everyone′s got lambs to slaughter
When the night wind starts to turn Into the ocean breeze And the dew drops sting and burn Like angry honey bees That is when you hear the song falling from the sky Happy yesterday to all We were born to die
Sometimes you′re filled with the notion The afterlife′s a moment away You want to tell someone the way that you feel But then you ain′t got nothing to say You fight for freedom from devotion A battle that will always begin With somebody giving you a piece of advice; By the way you′re living in sin
Now there′s never gonna be an intermission But there′ll always be a closing night Never entertain those visions Lest you may have packed your baggage First impressions are cheap auditions Situations are long goodbyes Truth so often to living dormant Good luck walks and bullshit flies
When the headlights guide your way You know the place is right When the treetops sing and sway Don′t go to sleep tonight That is when you see the sign Luminous and high: Tomorrow′s not what it used to be We were born to die Happy yesterday to all We were born to die
Oh, I need a witness to see the mess I′ve made There′s a broken lampshade, ashtrays, burnt floors, beds unmade Eyes sleeping if you are dream, dream of what I′m doing To you, undo you, I′m through with you until I need a round of Everytime I spend myself it never runs too low, woah I can′t escape my need for
Sex and violence Never meant you see them hand in hand One is with the other The softest touches, deeper than the ocean Give it to me faster, feel it, feel it
Sex and violence Who is gonna make you cry? (Sex and violence)
Oh, I was a real man stealing all the trade I was strong and self-made, well-paid, so groomed, persuasive You were walking home that night, too kind to be illusive Where do you live? What do you give? Who are you with? And how you getting home? Does everybody know right now exactly where you are? Woah Step inside′s a step too far but
Sex and violence Hit me with a lover, burns so bright And one is just the other Sweetest tastes, never gonna leave you Even when it hurts you, breathe it, breathe it
Laura, can′t you give me some time, I got to give myself one more chance. To be the man that I know I am. To be the man that I know I am. Won′t you just tell Cincinnati, I′m Gonna need your love. Don′t you give me your love?
Don′t you give me your, Ch′mon, Ch′mon, Where is your love? Don′t you give me your love, Don′t you give me your, Ch′mon, Ch′mon, Where is your love? Don′t you give me your love? Don′t you give me your.
[Instrumental]
Freeda, cant you spare me a dime? I got to give myself one more chance. To ring the band that I know I′m in. To ring the band that I know I′m in. Won′t you just tell Baby Daddy, I′m gonna need his love. Why don′t you give me his love? Why don′t you give me his, Ch′mon, Ch′mon, Where is your love? Don′t you give me your love, Don′t you give me your, Ch′mon, Ch′mon, Where is your love? Don′t you give me your love. Don′t you give me your.
This′ll be the last time, I ever do your hair. One face among the many, I never thought you cared. This′ll be the last time, I ever do your hair. One face among the many, I never thought you cared
