Please don't be afraid
Believe what you see
Whisper it a hundred times
A lesson soon to be forgotten
If you feel that life has passed you by
(Dive) Come with me we'll flow into tomorrow
(Dive) We can close our eyes and disappear
(Dive) Just below the threshold of detection
Is something you can't touch, taste, see or...
Here it is - The great escape
Slip with me into the shadows
What would life be without me ?
Master of your fate between two worlds
Don't you see that time is slipping by ?
(Dive) Come with me we'll flow into tomorrow
(Dive) We can close our eyes and disappear
(Dive) Just below the threshold of detection
Is something you can't touch, taste, see or hear
Come to me be my inspiration
We've got to rise above
You've got to dive for love
You've got to dive for love
Come to me and we can touch the sky
(Dive) Come with me we'll flow into tomorrow
(Dive) We can close our eyes and disappear
(Dive) Just below the threshold of detection
Is something you can't touch, taste, see or hear
(Dive) You know that love all pull you under
(Dive) They say the time for miracles is past
(Dive) Hold my hand and dive into the future
The time for us to rise is here at last
Rise
Dive

How demanding life can be
With a taste for luxury
It's such a modern way to live
A new hotel for the heartbroken
A bright new generation
Running out of time
Step up for the promised land
Pay today and pay tomorrow
Just like home from home
A timeshare in the stars
We're living in a divided world
It's our own creation
It's all too much
We're out of touch
In this united nation
Define the styles, wait for a while
Here comes a new sensation
Let's get it right before tonight
We are designing Heaven
I think at last I've found
A system for success
But the last thing on my mind
Is to arrest my own excess
The things that really count
Don't seem to have a price
Discover what you're missing
Now that it's your turn you can't wait
I say it's up to you
You say it's up to me
We're living in a divided world
It's our own creation
It's all too much
We're out of touch
In this united nation
Define the styles, wait for a while
Here comes a new sensation
Let's get it right before tonight
We are designing Heaven
I'm high enough to see
Nothing to lose
I feel relief
And disbelief
Now I can see
Did you ever wonder
Just how easy it would be ?
To try to rearrange
Your state of mind
If nature had a choice
think you know what it would be
Let us to a woman or a man
Try humanity
We're living in a divided world
It's our own creation
It's all too much
We're out of touch
In this united nation
Define the styles, wait for a while
Here comes a new sensation
Let's get it right before tonight
We are designing Heaven

It couldn't be clearer
I'll apologise right now
In spectacular language
I think you'll understand somehow
If I need to reach you
We've got to walk a path where love's forgotten
(Love) Diamond skin and clear blue eyes that never see
(Love) Every past needs broken time
Remind me how it used to be
(We blame Love) Heart is beating, mind is thinking
Body's moving
(We blame Love) Don't say another thing
It's dangerous it's deadly just like...
The secret is out
Beyond belief eternally
Naked and recognised
You see I'm just a boy who can't say...
(Love) Is the purest energy
In my philosophy
(Love) Every past needs broken time
Remind me how it used to be
(We blame Love) Fascination, strange attraction
Chain reaction
(We blame Love) For we are wild for truth
It's dangerous it's deadly just like...
It's just a clever trick
I know, bewitching me
But seeing you clouds my eyes
And if it rains then let it rain on me
(Love) Diamond skin and clear blue eyes that never see
(Love) Every past needs broken time
Remind me how it used to be
(We blame Love) Heart is beating, mind is thinking
Body's moving
(We blame Love) I haven't seen your face today
It's dangerous it's deadly just like...
(We blame Love) Fascination, strange attraction
Chain reaction
(We blame Love) For we are wild for truth
It's dangerous it's deadly just like...
Love
The saving of your life
A million times a second
The father of invention
Remind me how it used to be
(We blame Love) Fascination, strange attraction
Chain reaction
(We blame Love) Oh let it rain on me
It's dangerous it's deadly just like...
She's a real space slipper in an
Atomic graveyard she's got
Personal radar she is
Face to face electronically with
Me. I'm a living specimen
A single wing of a broken bird cries
Love
We're safe here in the past
Don't say another thing
I can't just pretend
The memory has left me
Your cold hand warm against my skin
A misinterpretation of tears
A freaky kind of nature
The world's gone mad - and I have
. . .

I'm waiting for someone to find me
Someone to pick me up
And make some use of me
In this life of wild adventure
There's so much I could give
Now that's what I call positive
The words that I've read
Keep going round my head
Been driving me crazy for years
Everybody's talking
But I find to hard to hear
They're all explaining something new
(It happens every day)
A new inspiration that can change my way of life
Another big idea
And then they disappear
Undercover at the airport
I saw your smiling face
But I don't have a place to go
So leave a flower or you can fax me
This counterculture's won
The word more dangerous than the gun
This sinister spin
The state that I'm in
The words that I've read
Keep going round my head
Been driving me crazy for years
Everybody's talking
But I find to hard to hear
They're all explaining something new
(It happens every day)
A new inspiration that can change my way of life
Another big idea
And then they disappear
Some will lead and some will follow
That's the way it goes
For all we know another big idea
Everybody's talking
But I find to hard to hear
They're all explaining something new
(It happens every day)
A new inspiration that can change my way of life
Another big idea
And then they disappear

Freak
There's a hole in me that's ten feet wide
There's a window come and look inside
Tell me everything you see
Because some very strange things have been happening to me
To he rhythm of the rain I'm exploring the pain
I slip and slide my own way through
Now I feel like I'm having a ball
But I've got a head full of nothing at all
I'm a ... Freak
The people come and people say
Another day just thrown away
Freak
You listen up to what's been said
Shake those dreams from your sleep head
Freak
It's getting harder to be me
I feel like I'm a refugee
Freak
You're looking for someone to blame
That freak of nature's here again
I'm thrilled to discover there is a lot to forget
I've done so many things I'll never regret
The time has come to hesitate
I've got to make a move so I think I'll wait
I know I'm not stupid but I just can't see
Why everybody thinks there's something wrong with me.
There's nothing in this world can alter my direction
I need to be a freak for my own protection
Freak
The people come and people say
Another day just thrown away
Freak
You listen up to what's been said
Shake those dreams from your sleep head
Freak
It's getting harder to be me
I feel like I'm a refugee
Freak
You're looking for someone to blame
That freak of nature's here again
Listen now and listen to me
This is more or less the way it will be
You're an X and I'm a Y
Just take a look up to the sky...
Around this planet shining bright
I'm just a lonely satellite
I'm as far away as far can be
I'm scared of the 21st century
Freak
The people come and people say
Another day just thrown away
Freak
You listen up to what's been said
Shake those dreams from your sleep head
Freak
It's getting harder to be me
I feel like I'm a refugee
Freak
You're looking for someone to blame
That freak of nature's here again

There's a bookstore in town where no-one reads
And those who remember will disappear
I hate to see them getting old
But they're better dead than read
I've just discovered something new
America called and put cables on us
Now it's crazy like Disneyland
The return of the soft machine
The return of the soft machine
Take a look what's going on
The entertainment has begun
Driving in a golden car
Bigger than America
Everybody can be a fool
You can't see it but you know it's coming
The cars are flying and the people dying
Now we're back on the wild side again
Africa screams hot, hard and mean
In Europe the crimes are in the streets
So don't cry baby killer, daddy's gone a-hunting
And you know he'll be back again
The return of the soft machine
And you know he'll be back again
Tell the truth and damn the lies
Crushed by the fortune's famous eyes
Driving in a golden car
Bigger than America
Loadin' up an' havin' fun
The magic circle is the magic gun
Shooting for a golden star
Bigger than America
(repeat 6 times)

I don't believe everything I seeGod only knows I believe in scienceMr. Einstein, help me pleaseI'd like to know what's really real
Keeping up with the times when everyone looks the sameA synthetic paradise takes the kick out of cocaineIt I want I can have a new obsession every dayAn escalating addiction and I know I can afford to pay
The first to be and last to knowLike a film or a book or a TV showThese thing's we're seeing constantlyPass through and out of youIt pours into the ground and makes rivers flowIt spills into the oceans, makes the feeling growBecomes a cloud and rains and rainsBut it always leaves you needing more
It's strange the way it feels to live this wayLosing touch as all resistance slips awayThere's an eye that lets you see what you want to seeReach out inside and you cold be what you want to be
It pours into the ground and makes rivers flowIt spills into the oceans, makes the feeling growBecomes a cloud and rains and rainsBut it always leaves you needing more
It's unreal but it's strange the way it feels the way to live this way
Losing sight, lousing touch as all resistance slips away
In your mind there's an eye that lets you see what you want to see
Then you could reach out inside and you could be what you want to be
Keeping up with the times when everybody looks the same
Synthetic paradise takes the kick out of cocaine
If I want I can have a new obsession every day
An escalating addiction and I know I can afford to pay

The national nightmare has begun
Empire of fantasy with a dark gloved fist aloft
While the challenger explodes
Banks are failing coming down hard
The way things are going I'm moving to the sun belt
Stars and stripes, forever is a long time
Don't ask me what's to be done
Ask what you can do for your country ?
The Big Dipper' coming down
Miss America's lost her crown
Guess I've spent too long in this old town
No time to run and hide
We've been taken for a ride
America leads the world in teenage suicide
I always thought it would have been great
To be a part of the United States
a land of unmissed opportunity
A friend seems so far ahead
A land safe on film
Untouched by reality
But like a well played record seemed to scratch
The news that real life and cinema don't match
Even Forrest Gump can't save us now
The king of Hollywood is dead
I don't care what the president said
I don't believe in everything I've read
The Big Dipper's coming down
New York's just a shanty town
That distant sound is L.A. burning down
The golden years of justice
The golden years of youth
The golden years of liberty
The golden years of truth
Laser bombin'
Status seekin'
Trail blazin'
Frontier pushin'
Space racin'
Earth quakin'
Jesus freakin'
Serial killin'
Cult crushin'
Net surfin'
Networkin'
Fast talkin'
Gun runnin'
Fun lovin'
America !
The Big Dipper' coming down
Miss America's lost her crown
Guess I've spent too long in this old town
No time to run and hide
We've been taken for a ride
America leads the world in teenage suicide
The Big Dipper's coming down
New York's just a shanty town
That distant sound is L.A. burning down
The king of Hollywood is dead
I don't care what the president said
I don't believe in everything I've read

You spoke softly my name
Not wishing to be heard by anyone
Your gravity take me and pulls me
Into a mysterious world
A sense of expectation when you leave
It's time to go
There goes the girl with everything
She's all pretend, for all I know
She's saves her tears for years and years
Tied to someone else in effort to be free
Who do I believe ?
As the letters in your name wrap around me like a chain
Do I believe ?
As the words rearrange there is nothing I can change
I believe
The madness in your eyes holds tomorrow's sweet surprise
Believe
We can't tell the truth and live with this lie and still survive
That one insane second should never have been
All washed out, too scared to scream
I might as well say it, of course it's untrue
It happened to me, It can happen to you
There's no defence against a dream
I'm falling but there's no-one there to see
It can't be me
I've saved my tears for years and years
Tied to someone else in an effort who be free
Who do I believe ?
As the letters in your name wrap around me like a chain
Do I believe ?
As the words rearrange there is nothing I can change
I believe
The madness in your eyes holds tomorrow's sweet surprise
Believe
We can't tell the truth and live with this lie and still survive

Do you feel disturbance ?
A disturbance hits the news
You can't dismiss it or ignore it
And you've waited so long for it
It's the winner's turn to lose
(We can't wait another day)
In Paris and Geneve
In Frankfurt and Berlin
In London, Rome and Lisbon
A crisis will begin
Do you feel anticipation ?
Do you feel you're being used ?
It's the resurrection showdown
It's the winners turn to lose
Let's go all the way
There's a target to destroy
Let's go all the way
There's an army to deploy
Let's go all the way
You're free to make a choice
Are you ready ?
Let's say it now with just one voice
Change, Change, Change
I'm the resurrection man
Let's go all the way
Reach out and touch my hand
Let's go all the way
You know somebody's got to pay
Get ready
Get ready for the judgement day
This is a song of independence
You think you've seen it all before
I know you run and try and hide it
And sometimes you might deny it
But you've got a taste for more
(Isn't that worth fighting for ?)
Let's go all the way
Can't you see that we've had enough
Let's go all the way
Before the going gets too rough
Let's go all the way
You're free to use your voice
Are you ready ?
Win or lose you have a choice
Change, Change, Change
There's a target to destroy
Let's go all the way
There's an army to deploy
Let's go all the way
Someone has got to pay
Get ready
Let's say it now with just one voice
Change, Change, Change
I'm the resurrection man
Let's go all the way
Reach out and touch my hand
Let's go all the way
There's nothing more to say
Are you ready
Get ready for the judgement day
. . .

Tell me
Should I be surprised
By the thought of something new
Slowly
As I realise
Start a fire in my mind
Through earthly desire
To find a better place
Trying to find a way
To heaven and higher
A long way from my world
No tears of emotion for my own devotion
Just like an illusion
It seems so real
This is how I'm going to feel
Maybe forever
I'm stronger
This time
Than I've been before
Tomorrow...Maybe forever
The power of suggestion
Deceiver and deceived
My senses slide away
It's such a distraction
I wish I had no memory
Waiting for someone just like you to find me
Just like an illusion
It seems so real
This is how I'm going to feel
Maybe forever
I'm stronger
This time
Than I've been before
Tomorrow...Maybe forever
The sea of change
Pulls me in
Almost naked
Perfect
Angel
Your voice
Saves me
Dislocate your mind
I'm waiting for someone just like you to find me
Just like an illusion
It seems so real
This is how I'm going to feel
Maybe forever
I'm stronger
This time
Than I've been before
Tomorrow...Maybe forever
In silence
In darkness
Together now at least until
Tomorrow...Maybe forever
The distance between us
Will fade away
People come and stay
Sometimes forever and ever
Maybe forever
Forever and ever and ever ...

From beyond a message has come
Slowly the last forever has begun
Turn around its revolution
Divine signs must move with the times
Even so they try to mystify
Communications fading with the past
We're sending a cypher a code to be cracked
By a curious someone we need to attract
Pray for me
(Pray for me)
The message endlessly
(The message endlessly)
Repeating constantly
(Repeating constantly)
Can anyone hear ?
Pray for me
(Pray for me)
Be a part of me
As I disappear
(As I disappear)
This is my plea
Change my life till nothing remains
Let the blood run through my veins again
An immaculate injection, a shot of something new
All out faith we have to replace
We are out of time and out of space
A new beginning in a different world
Sister love extinguish all desire
Never born and never died
Take my words from my heart
Help me make a new start today
(Reset my life)
Brother beloved this is my devotion
Everlasting absolute
Give me the strength to see
Believe that you'll receive someway
Believe and let us pray
Pray for me
The message endlessly
Repeating constantly
Can anyone hear ?
Pray for me
(Pray for me)
Be a part of me
As I disappear
This is my plea
Sister love extinguish all desire
Never born and never died
Take my words from my heart
Help me make a new start today
(Reset my life)
Brother beloved this is my devotion
Everlasting absolute
Give me the strength to see
Believe that you'll receive someway
Believe and let us pray
Pray for me (repeat 3 times)
