Devin Townsend Album

Life, it's all life
It's all alive
It's alright now
We're home
Home, home, home...

Light, it's all light
It's all lies
It's a life
It's all right, now we're home

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 we're alone
We're never alone...watch the ocean.

I'm regulated
I'm regulated
...Odd times and all
Odd times and all.

Regulator, no meantime at all

Time won't wait for me

There goes that old feeling, I'm free again!

I warned you
Hallelujah
Hello... it's back

In the morning 'bout three or so
Can't stop thinking about what I know
In the morning 'bout three or so
Can't stop thinking of the universe

I keep rocking, I keep rolling
Trade in the minute for a minute that isn't there
Keep dropping, keep rolling
Put out the fire with the water
Thinking creosote

I the morning with a beat up bud I know
I can't fight a war without losing blood

In the morning 'bout three or so
Can't stop seeking what I need to know
God is in the mountain as is in the rock
And god is not concerned about keeping stock

So keep rocking, keep rolling
Trade in the minute for a minute that isn't there
Keep dropping, keep rolling
Put out the fire with the water
Thinking creosote

All he ever wanted was to be alone
But you can't feel love without being loved!!

(Can't fight a war without losing blood)
(Blood... Blood... Blood...)
All we ever wanted was love
Love! (doo wop boddum... doo wapideewapideewapideedoo...)
We can see the enemy, they say...
Hey! we don't want your war!
It's quite nice, white light, it's quite, it's quite extraordinary!
Window! It's a window! It's white! It's quite... quite...
God, quiet! Just a little bit of quiet please!

Just stop the noise for once... please!!

I wanna know what you all
Had for dinner
I wanna watch the rodeo
I wanna big city boy
Be a man, not a boy
I'm gonna meet you on down
Beside the bayou

I wanna be in your little friend
I wanna live in your underpants
I wanna big city boy
Be a man, not a boy
I'm gonna meet you on down beside the bayou

And we'll see how it feels when I'm older
And we'll see how it feels when it's over
'Cause it's all just a waste of time
So enjoy what's on my mind
(Someone should have said)

Train won't stop
Never gonna stop
And it's coming back to carry me back home
Leave me alone
With no where to go
And ride that wind back home...

Bad devil
Bad double-decker devil

Cry for me baby
Lie for me baby
Lay down before me baby
And ride that wind back home

Bad devil
And I've seen how I'll feel when I'm older
And I've seen how I'll feel when it's over
And it's not just a waste of time!
So enjoy what's on my mind

Running, beyond the speed of sound
Calling, beyond the speed of sound
Say you love me, say you love yourself
Say you need me, say you care
Say you want me, say you want yourself
Say you want to be with me well

Christeen, that's all I ask of you

Falling, into the open doorway
Loving, what anyone else would loathe here...
Say you're with me, say you're with yourself
Say you're lonely, say you care
Say you warned me, say you warned yourself
Say you want to be with me well

Christeen, that's all I ask of you

Are you feeling okay?
Are you feeling so much pain
That never goes away
Oh, we know, and we're feeling so much better than before
What's more, is that feeling isn't failing anymore...

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

[No lyrics]

I've Got A Feeling
With The Wrong People
And I Can't Control My Thoughts

I Wish That I Could Sleep
And Just Get This Over With
...This Is Only High School Bullshit...

I Just Want To Feel

I Was Warned
Absolutely Numb
No Good Around People
Everyone Knows And Watches Me

How Did I Get Here Tonight?
What Am I Doing Here?
How Did I Reach This State?
How Did I Lose My Sight?

I'm Lost ... I'm Freaking
And Everybody Knows ... Everyone's Watching

...So Here's All My Hopes And Aspirations
Nothing But Puke
God, It's So Lonely...

I Just Want To Feel

"ZEPPELIN!"

This here's a song about the things you don't find in nature
This here's a tale about conditions of the head
At one time I wanted to expand my education but
Now I'll make more money if I dye my hair instead.

'Cause I've gotta be more punk, and forget about writing love songs
And even though I'm a middle class white Canadian
God knows I've been done wrong
'Cause I'm a fake punk! I'm a fake punk!
I'll even use a dirty word, I'll even write a mean song,
I'll even take a mean picture
'Cause I've got the hair for it!

I've always tried to dig myself out of the sewer
I've always strived to be a little bit more well-read
But oh no! Here comes that rock press interviewer so,
I'll just look real tough and say fuck a lot instead

I'd be alright if I could just hang out with my girlfriend
I'd be just fine if they would close down all the bars
And maybe one day I'll join a protest against smoking
But when it comes to sincere angst you can just
Leave me the fuck alone!

Sister

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

You and I
Will never be falling for, reality
You and I, and every being
Falling for reality...
You and I, must never mean
Falling into alcohol
You for you, and all for you...

(People who are predisposed to schizophrenia can be pushed into the condition
through the use of marijuana)
You can never tell the face
When they're starting to go...

And you, make all my words go away
And you, take all my time
But you, make all the hurt go away
And all I can say it it's day
After day, all I know...

-Yeah-

Fine, fine, fine

So you, make all these dreams go away
And you, help me do time
Can you, make all the love go away
...'Cause all I can say is it's day
After day, god I know

Fine, fine, just leave me alone
Just let me go away
Just go away

Just go...

Here I am, driving through Japan at night
Here I am, pretending everything's alright
And I've got so far to go before the morn
And I can't believe how much it hurts at home

Here I am, living life inside a comic book
Here I am, bored with everything...

And I can't believe that I'm here to stay,
'Cause I never worked it out this way
And I love you more than I can say,
But I hate you every other way

Rain, falling down
Rain, falling down
Rain, falling down
Rain falling down over me

I think I'm closer now
I think I'm closer now
It's getting closer now
Under the light of the moon

And I can't believe that I'm here to stay,
'Cause I never worked it out...
And I love you more than I can say,
But I hate you every other...
And I'll keep my world from falling apart,
In the corner of an aching heart
So say you'll come into the city,
Come back with me please...
