Crystal clear I see the rose is frail The thorns hide easily in its beauty As I go to grasp it in my hand My heart is torn beating from my chest Let me be captivated By your beauty Then let me fall from your grace Unto my broken knees Close my eyes so tightly The tears are welling up You aren′t worth the waste Of the salt or the water
Watch the sun play in your hair and I couldn′t really care care any less about you Watch the sun play in your hair I couldn′t really care care any less about you
Fuck all your false beauty It was transparent just like your smile - liar Your thorns caress my flesh Crimson drops on a snowy field - liar I have watched you retrogress I have watched what you′ve become - liar Please take your eyes off of me It′s funny how fast blue eyes fade gray - liar
Let me be captivated by your beauty Then let me fall from your grace Unto my broken knees Close my eyes so tightly The tears are welling up You aren′t worth the waste Of the salt or the fucking water
And you are deceit
Just wither away real beauty is forever Just wither away real beauty is forever Just wither away real beauty is forever Just wither away real beauty is forever
C#m H They call me an iron snake A But in the city house All my life in Prison G#m C#m Such a fucking feeling - known as well H But i drooped through the walls A I ran the wind and won All of them are wrong G#m A I feel so handsome and so proud C#m A C#m You′d better believe me!
Then I let them saw the snake My death or my control All the bikes collating I had times to realize that′s all Dying now i fell so strange I never felt astray Eyes and wings By the body get away You′d better believe me!
D#m H I never saw the blinding light G#m I will be crusified tonight F# I′ve got another wind to ride B7 D#m Forgive me bless I will be right H I never saw the blinding light G#m I will be crusified tonight F# B7 H C# D#m I′ve got another wind to ride
I was calling for my friend He didnt hear my voice I had got it Moving there to dawning day - I had no choice Life isnt death and death isnt life They are shining only twice Dying is nothing Jesus I was quite there Where sun begins to rise You′d better believe me!
I never saw the blinding light I will be crusified tonight I′ve got another wind to ride Forgive me bless I will be right I never saw the blinding light I will be crusified tonight I′ve got another wind to ride
If only you read my mind You′d see I was hurt inside A thousand time′s I′ve told myself it′s over (It′s over) But the story has just begun And darling what′s done is done It′s time to change and leave the past behind
Why should we know all the answers? Or how the story ends (so baby)
Let′s take a chance on a happy ending (Let′s) turn the page and stop pretending The past can stop a heart from mending It′s time to let go ′cos baby we know Some things are better best forgotten
And baby we can′t pretend In time the scars will mend Please believe me there′s a chance, let′s take it (let′s take it) And maybe at last we′ll find That love should be true not blind You can′t deceive a hearts that open wide
(And) even now its not too late To change the story′s end (So baby)
Let′s take a chance on a happy ending (Let′s) turn the page and stop pretending The past can stop a heart from mending It′s time to let go ′cos baby we know Some things are better best forgotten
The story has just begun Darlin′ what′s done is done It′s time to change and leave the past behind
What′s with all this doom and gloom? You used to be such, such a laugh It′s only sin, original sin Corinthians (15:22) Never been a big fan of things But I′m growing so fond of you
You get sadder the smarter you get And it′s a bore You get sadder the smarter you get And it′s a bore
Truth is truth I ain′t no bohemian Much too, much too safe Much too, much too typical Much too, much too typical Much too, much too You can use your hands for something else I′ll take you further than the scholars can Put down your books and molest me Heaven is here, where it needs to be
You get sadder the smarter you get And it′s a bore You get sadder the smarter you get And it′s a bore
And there was a time before we were born When we stood in the garden If this world won′t last I′ll turn you on Well, I′ve got enough for the both of us The both of us The both of us
And there was a time before we were born When we stood in the garden If this world does not turn you on Well, I′ve got enough for the both of us The both of us
I′m writing this song to tell you that I′m sorry Because I know you never thought that I′d be away so long I know its unfair to ask for you to wait for me But I don′t have a real job and you′re ready to move on
And its hard to keep my balance when you look the other way So I′m letting go with every breath I take in
So many reasons I need something more to believe in The time has come to turn and walk away Through all these changes, mistakes There was time now its too late There′s nothing more that I could say to you
I′m writing this song to tell you that its over Your jealously took you way too far this time Another day comes, I′m better off with outyou So now take a deep breath and carry on with our lives
And its hard to keep my balance when you look the other way So I′m letting go with every breath I take in
So many reasons I need something more to believe in The time has come to turn and walk away Through all these changes, mistakes There was time now its too late There′s nothing more that I could say to you
So what good is today If there′s not gunna be a tomorrow? It′s too much for me to take I know you don′t wait forever Just remember that life without us won′t be the same
So many reasons I need something more to believe in The time has come to turn and walk away Through all these changes, mistakes There was time now its too late There′s nothing more that I could say to you
Oh I see what she do – but I can do it better. And the talk of the town be true but I’ll make you forget her. How can you hate something that you ain’t ever tried? You’ve got to lose control most every night. Yeah you see what they do - Well we can do it better, yeah I’m talking to you.
You’ve got to feel it, see it, know how much you need it What’s the point in living if you don’t take a chance? You’ve got to use it, lose it, know that you’ll still do it. What’s the point in living if you don’t wanna dance?
Oh I know life is hard – so we’re living for the weekend. You can hurt or take heart – I guess it really depends. What’s the point in worrying about being cool When there’s a million things to learn they never teach you in school? Oh don’t believe what they say - We just want tomorrow to be better than today. Hey!
You’ve got to feel it, see it, know how much you need it What’s the point in living if you don’t take a chance? You’ve got to use it, lose it, know that you’ll still do it What’s the point in living if you don’t wanna dance? You’ve got to feel it, see it, know how much you need it What’s the point in living if you don’t take a chance? You’ve got to use it, lose it, know that you’ll still do it What’s the point in living if you don’t wanna dance?
Fabrications complicate the world in a web Too much useless information plays with your head. Very clever people know we all need a chance To stop our clever business and let go and dance….
You’ve got to use it, lose it, know that you’ll still do it. What’s the point in living if you don’t wanna dance? You’ve got to feel it, see it, know how much you need it What’s the point in living if you don’t take a chance? You’ve got to use it, lose it, know that you’ll still do it. What’s the point in living if you don’t wanna dance?
Oh oh Oh oh everybody Everybody wanna dance now Oh oh Oh oh everybody Everybody wanna dance now
A dark place in the light of this city. I know this feeling I keep buried inside, won′t retreat, or delete. It ends tonight. The dull pain that remains isn′t pretty. I′m being smothered in the flames I ignite. "Oh my city is burning tonight."
[Chorus] So how′s it gonna feal when I leave this town, broke and burning, with the memories that we once found. I′m out of time and I′m, I′m out of place. I left a love I can′t replace, to find home. Yet everytime I′m left with nothing, but nothing′s all I need. Another time, there′s always something, but never inside me.
My chest tightens. It brightens the light of the stars, revealing our scars, all the times that were ours. On the run with nothing but an appetite for lust and seduction. I won′t start again with the feelings. I know what I need and it′s so unappealing. I sink below, let me go. I need to find my way back to what I know.
[Chorus] So how′s it gonna feal when I leave this town, broke and burning, with the memories that we once found. I′m out of time and I′m, I′m out of place. I left a love I can′t replace, to find home. Yet everytime I′m left with nothing, but nothing′s all I need. Another time, there′s always something, but never inside me.
So how′s it gonna feal when I leave this town, broke and burning, with the memories that we once found. So how′s it gonna feal when I leave this town, how′s it gonna feel, how′s it gonna feel, when I leave. So how′s it gonna feal when I leave this, so how′s it gonna feel?
To find, to find, to find, to find, find, home. Yet everytime I′m left with nothing, but nothing′s all I need. So how′s it gonna feal when I leave this town, how′s it gonna feal when I leave this town, how′s it gonna feal when I leave this town, how′s it gonna feal, how′s it gonna feel, when I leave, [x8] when I leave this town.
My decision can not be put off again I see the right choice but my heart is filled with dread It all seems backwards in my head, my head
I know it seems too wrong to be right This way is so much harder to fight But in the end I know it is true This way is better, it′s better for you
Choose a little pain and gain a life with joy Accepting pleasure now will earn a life of pain It all seems backwards in my head, my head
I know it seems too wrong to be right This way is so much harder to fight But in the end I know it is true This way is better It′s better for you, for you
Sometimes I wonder why it′s this way When it′s done the burden is gone This discomfort will be taken away As soon as it′s over, it′s over for me
I know it seems too wrong to be right This way is so much harder to fight But in the end I know it is true This way is better It′s better for you, for you
I should′ve been sleep 3 hours ago I should′ve never picked up on the phone Mama said you better leave him alone Cause I′m lost without you And everytime you′re walking out of my door I don′t last a second I get jealous Oh, where you go?
Can′t pronounce how you do But it′s something I can oh if they all know I love him There ain′t nothing bigger Than all of the little things
There′s nothing better than Sharing headphones to an opera Sitting in our second class seats To whatever we′re going to
There′s nothing better than Fighting over sheets in the night Or ryming with the summer repeat To where ever we′re going to Whatever were going though
And here I was thinking I was so tough Listen I ain′t never falling in love Now forever just ain′t enough It′s an understatement I′ll go crazy without your love
Can′t pronounce how you do But it′s something I can oh if they all know I love him No there ain′t nothing bigger Than all of the little things There′s nothing better than
Sharing headphones to an opera Sitting in our second class seats To where ever we′re going to There′s nothing better than Sharing headphones to an opera Sitting in our second class seats To where ever we′re going to Whatever were going though Whatever were going though
I don′t even want to breath baby If I ain′t with you I don′t want to die and leave here Fighting with you See there ain′t ever been such thing as love Until us It don′t even mean the same Without us
Everybody here can hate me I got my baby Cause everyday is everything There′s nothing better than
There′s nothing better than Sharing headphones to an opera Sitting in our second class seats To where ever we′re going to Whatever we′re going to
There′s nothing better than Fighting over sheets in the night Or ryming with the summer repeats To whatever we′re going to Oh repeat
There′s nothing better than Sharing headphones to an opera Sitting in our second class seats To whatever we′re going to Whatever I′m going through
Fighting over sheets in the night Or ryming with the summer repeat To whatever we′re going to

There′s nothing better than Nothing better than Nothing better than You
Feel your every heartbeat Feel you on these empty nights Calm the ache, stop the shakes You clear my mind You′re my escape From this messed up place ′Cause you let me forget You numb my pain
How can I tell you just all that you are What you do to me
You′re better than drugs your love is like wine Feel you comin′ on so fast Feel you comin′ to get me high You′re better than drugs Addicted for life Feel you comin′ on so fast Feel you comin′ on to get me high
Feel you when I′m restless Feel you when I cannot cope You′re my addiction, my prescription, my antidote You kill the poison Ease the suffering Calm the rage when I′m afraid To feel again How can I tell you just all that you are What you do to me
Feel your every heartbeat Feel you on these empty nights You′re the strength of my life
[Altro:] Feel your every heartbeat Feel you on these empty nights Feel your every heartbeat Feel you come to get me high

I′d stay the hand of god, but the war is on your lips How can I brace myself for razor blades on whips When everything with meaning is shattered, broken, screaming And I′m lost inside this darkness and I fear I won′t survive
I could pray and trick with a double tongue, but the only fool here′s me I choose the way to go, but the road won′t set me free Cos I wish you′d see me, baby, save me, I′m going crazy Tryin′ to keep us real, keep us alive
This day will die tonight and there ain′t no exception We shouldn′t wait for nothing to wait for Love me in this fable, babe, my heart is in your hand Our time is waiting right outside your door And maybe tomorrow is a better day
I do not deal the cards and I play a lousy hand I celebrate no victories and my promises are sand Against all this I contrast you, when all is lost the war is through Hey angel, dare the winds now we can fly
This day will die tonight and there ain′t no exception Why should I wait for nothing to wait for Let me love you in this fable, hold your heart in my hand Our time is waiting right outside your door And maybe tomorrow is a better day
This day will die tonight and there ain′t no exception Why should I wait for nothing to wait for I won′t cry for my solitude, lay my head and dream of you And hope that you′ll come knocking on my door And maybe tomorrow is a better day I know tomorrow is a better day

Every second is a lifetime And every minute more brings you closer to God And you see nothing but the red lights You let your body burn like never before.
And it feels better than love. Yeah it feels better than love.
Turn away, turn away, close your eyes You can runaway. It′s not enough.
Another second in the sunshine, A decade in the dark taking part in a dream. Have you forgotten what she looks like? Or do you only see what you want to believe?
Does it feel better than love? Does it feel better than love?
Turn away, turn away, close your eyes You can runaway. It′s not enough.
I see the lights through the rain, oh tonight But they never change. So what is love?
Does it feel better than love? Does it feel better than love?
Turn away, turn away, close your eyes You can runaway. It′s not enough.
I see the lights through the rain, oh tonight But they never change. So what is love
Waitin′, watchin′ the clock, it′s four o′clock, it′s got to stop Tell him, take no more, she practices her speech As he opens the door, she rolls over... Pretends to sleep as he looks her over She lies and says she′s in love with him, can′t find a better man... She dreams in color, she dreams in red, can′t find a better man... Can′t find a better man (2x) Ohh...

Better Just when I thought that I was better I realized that I don′t know what better was Is it......... Better than I used to be? Better for you or for me? I′d better hurry cause I need a better view of things I don′t know what it is or what I might be coming down with
Don′t know where I′ve been Don′t know where to go Can′t remember all the things that I need to know All I know is that if I think about it I′d still rather be me than me be you And I′m not getting any better Cause everytime I can′t remember what it′s for Is it......... Better now than yesterday? Better that I am this way? I′d better not be so afraid I bet I shouldn′t say I don′t know what it is or what I might be coming down with
Don′t know where I′ve been Don′t know where to go Can′t remember all the things that I need to know All I know is that if I think about it I′d still rather be me than me be you I don′t know what it is or what I might be coming down with
I don′t know what it is or what I might be coming down with
Don′t know where I′ve been Don′t know where to go Can′t remember all the things that I need to know All I know is that if I think about it I′d still rather be me than me than maybe you Maybe you
What do you do when she don′t love you anymore? What do you do when she wont hold you anymore? Living in sin, now you′re all alone again. She′s having a change of heart without a word everything just falls apart What do you do when she don′t love you anymore? What do you do when she wont hold you anymore? Two lovers walking through life together Tender kisses and all the sweet things they used to say

Chorus: It′s the sweet love that you give to me That makes me believe we can make it through anything ′Cause when it all comes down And I′m feeling like I′ll never last I just lean on you ′cause baby You′re my better half

I remember what you wore on the first day You came into my life and I thought hey you know, this could be something
′Cause everything you do and words you say You know that it all takes my breath away And now I′m left with nothing
So maybe it′s true that I can′t live without you And maybe two is better than one But there′s so much time to figure out the best of my life And you′ve already got me coming undone And I′m thinking two is better than one
I remember every look upon your face The way you roll your eyes, the way you taste You make it hard for breathing
′Cause when I close my eyes and drift away I think of you and everything′s okay I′m finally now believing
That maybe it′s true that I can′t live without you And maybe two is better than one But there′s so much time to figure out the best of my life And you′ve already got me coming undone And I′m thinking two is better than one Yeah, yeah
I remember what you wore on the first day You came into my life and I thought, hey
Maybe it′s true that I can′t live without you Maybe two is better than one There′s so much time to figure out the best of my life And you′ve already got me coming undone
And I′m thinking, ooh, I can′t live without you ′Cause, baby, two is better than one There′s so much time to figure out the best of my life But I figured out with all that′s said and done Two is better than one, two is better than one

Raise the stakes on this! Now′s the perfect time, Eat crow and liberate your mind. Oh why do we live? Oh where do we live? This is a contraceptive, This is not accepted where we live This is not accepted where we live This is not accepted where we live This is not accepted where we live
Just a piece on the assembly line floor Just a piece on the assembly line floor
Put your hands in the air A macabre companionship, Porcelain crusted in shards... Is this how it ends? Was this all pretend!? Put your hands where I can see ′em.
She′s the one she′s the only one She′s got ripped back light Gonna make me come I say...when I smile I′m a really smile I got dreams so wide like a country mile
I said now, I′ll take it It′s better for you Somehow we′ll make it ′Cause that′s what we do
Pick a star in the open sky I see you see me And that is why I
Hop along to the cowboy beat When I feel your fire Jump up to meet
Something out there Where love is your only friend and We are the ones That will make you feel better and Someone to spare When love is the only end and We are the ones That will make you feel better Oh Yeah
In a world that has run amok I′ve got to set my sights Just to get struck
I walk away from the rank and file With a punched out mouth And a pack of style
I say... she′s the one she′s the only one Make me search myself Until im done... and
Tell me now in a telegram Do the sea of stars Make a diagram... and
So alive I arrive on dust You can search my mind For the red on rust... I said Take me there and she really cares Lights up for me gonna hear my prayers I said
There was a time I had nothing to give I needed shelter from the storm i was in And when it all got too heavy You carried my weight And i want to hold you And i want to say
That you are all that i need For you, I give my soul to keep You see me, love me Just the way i am For you i am a better man I said you are the reason For everything i do I′d be lost, so lost without you
Under the stars At the edge of the sea There′s no one around No one but you and me We′d talk for hours As time drifts away I could stay here forver And hold you this way
Coz you are all that i need For you, I give my soul to keep You see me, love me Just the way i am For you i am a better man I said you are the reason For everything i do I′d be lost, so lost without you
I think you can do much better than me After all the lies that I made you believe Guilt kicks in and I start to see The edge of the bed Where your nightgown used to be I told myself I won′t miss you But I remembered What it feels like beside you I really miss your hair in my face And the way your innocence tastes And I think you should know this You deserve much better than me
While looking through your old box of notes I found those pictures I took That you were looking for If there′s one memory I don′t want to lose That time at the mall You and me in the dressing room I told myself I won′t miss you But I remembered What it feels like beside you I really miss your hair in my face And the way your innocence tastes And I think you should know this You deserve much better than me
The bed I′m lying in is getting colder Wish I never would′ve said it′s over And I can′t pretend... I won′t think about you when I′m older Cause we never really had our closure This can′t be the end I really miss your hair in my face And the way your innocence tastes And I think you should know this You deserve much better than me I really miss your hair in my face And the way your innocence tastes And I think you should know this You deserve much better than me (And I think you should know this) (You deserve much better than me)
Well I′ve packed my bags I′m moving on Yes I′ve been waiting far too long Cuz living with you is like a hole in the head I know that I′ll soon be better off Cuz living with you is like a hole in the head I know, well I know
That I don′t care about anyone You know that I′m better off (better off) Well I don′t care about anyone You know that I′m better off

Cause I am a woman that needs a better half Someone who understands exactly what I mean That′s who I be I′m a woman, I need a strong man Someone who understands the better half of me That is just what I need

there′s no combination of words i could put on the back of a postcard no song that i could sing but i could try for your heart our dreams they are made out of real things like a shoebox, a photograph, a sepia tone lovin
love is the answer there is for most of the question of my heart like why are we here and where do we go and how come it′s so hard it′s not always easy and sometimes life can be deceiving i′ll tell you one thing it′s always better when we′re together
mmh it′s always better when we together yeah we′ll look at the stars when we′re together well it′s always better when we′re together yeah it′s always better when we together
and all of these moments just might find a way into my dreams tonight but i know that they′ll be gone when the morning light sings it brings new things for tomorrow night you see that they′ll be gone too too many things i have to do but if all of those dreams might find a way into my day to day scene i d be under the impression i was somewhere in between with only two just me and you not so many things we got to do or places we got to be we sit beneath the mango tree now
yeah it′s always when we′re together somewhere in between together yeah it′s always better when we′re together yeah it′s always better when we′re together
i believe in memories they look so pretty when i sleep and i .. and when i wake up you look so pretty sleeping next to me but there is not enough time there is no.. no song i could sing there is no combination of words i could say but i will still tell you one thing
We′re starting to feel We stayed together out of fear Of dying alone I′ve been slipping through the years My old clothes don′t fit like they once did So they hang like ghosts Of the people I′ve been
It′s like my heart can′t take My fall in love every day And I feel like a fool
I have to face the truth That no one could ever look at me like you do Like I′m something worth holding on to
These times I think of leaving But it′s something I′ll never do
′Cause you can do better than me But I can′t do better than you [repeat]
I could feel it when we said goodnight We both knew it had to and We couldn′t make it right But we still came back again Don′t be sad ′cause we gave the best we had We′re better off now, better off now Maybe we just don′t know it Better off now, better off now Maybe this time We′re better off saying goodbye
I know I′ll never feel the same After loving you this way I′d do it all again Though I know my heart would break Once you′ve loved like this how do you admit
We′re better off now, better off now Maybe we just don′t know it Better off now, better off now Maybe this time We′re better off saying goodbye
Maybe we just don′t know it Better off now, better off now It′s hard to realize We′re better off saying goodbye
Close your eyes and I′ll be there If you ever think you need me
We′re better off now, better off now Maybe we just don′t know it Better off now, better off now Maybe this time We′re better off saying goodbye
I see the sweat is dripping That′s because you know just what I′m thinking Don′t look back it′s me who follows And there ain′t nothing from me you can borrow
You like to hide behind lies But we see through your disguise It′s not a threat or a curse Just a proper verse
I′m gonna make you let go Of what you tried to withhold And I can promise it won′t be long Yes I can promise
Boy, you better pray We don′t seek you out, no You better pray
You think the war is over I′ve only shown you the tip of the iceberg And you rely upon your lawyers But at night when you sleep does it bother you?
You like to hide behind lies But we see through your disguise It′s not a threat or a curse Just a proper verse
I′m gonna make you let go Of what you tried to withhold And I can promise it won′t be long Yes I can promise
Boy, you better pray We don′t seek you out, no You better hope We might lose control, no
Is this good enough for you man?
Boy, you better pray We don′t seek you out, no You better hope We might lose control, no
You′re back, sitting on my doorstep, ah yeah like nothing happened. Telling me you′re free and oh, can you see me again? Yeah right, you′ve been kicked out, do you think I′m that stupid? You say you′re free but didn′t he just oh oh oh... get tired of you kid.

Let me tell you how I′ve been: I′ve been hiding from my friends, hiding from the world, hiding from myself. You think you′ll come round here, start singing in my ear, girl you damaged me, I don′t forgive so easily. You better do better than that!
Your face makes me want to be sick, ah yeah it′s a physical reaction... You′d better leave because you see I Can′t; won′t be blamed for my actions. Oh, how I ever loved you... So dumb, how did I ever trust you? But you and he laughed at me, oh when you′re laid together.
I couldn′t eat for days, I cried so much my face, has never been the same... And now you′re back here with your lies. I hope you realise...
[chorus]
I gave you everything I had girl, but you had to try and take some more. You went behind my back girl, cheated on me, I was the last to know. Did everything we have girl, meant nothing to ya, well I was such a fool... Now you come crawling back girl, oh let me tell ya I am through with you.
Oh I′m back up off the floor, and I won′t get hurt no more, I′ve been waiting for this day when, you′ll be back here with your lies, I hope you realise...
[chorus]
Say something, say something... Say something, say something...
You′d better do better than that! (reverb, music to fade)
