I tremble
They’re gonna eat me alive
If I stumble
They’re gonna eat me alive

Can you hear my heart beating like a hammer, beating like a hammer
Help, I’m alive, my heart keeps beating like a hammer
Hard to be soft, tough to be tender
Come take my pulse, the pace is on a runaway train
Help, I’m alive, my heart keeps beating like a hammer, beating like a hammer

If you’re still alive
My regrets are few.
If my life is mine,
what shouldn’t I do?
I get wherever I’m going,
I get whatever I need
while my blood’s still flowing
and my heart still beats.

Help, I’m alive, my heart keeps beating like a hammer
Hard to be soft, tough to be tender
Come take my pulse, the pace is on a runaway train
Help, I’m alive, my heart keeps beating like a hammer, beating like a hammer

Help, I’m alive, my heart keeps beating like a hammer.

Watch out Cupid
Stuck me with a sickness
Pull your little arrows out
Let me live my life

You better watch out Cupid
Stuck me with a sickness
Pull your little arrows out
Let me live my life
The one I'd better lead
All the blondes are fantasies

And we looked at them eleven ways
You said, "Look at me". And looked away
And you wrote the song I wanna play
I'll write you harmony in C

Everybody,Everybody just wanna fall in love
Everybody,Everybody just wanna play the lead

Watch out Cupid
Money is a sick muse
Pull your little arrows out
And let me live my life

She said, "I'm with stupid"
Money is a sick muse
Pull your little arrows out
Let me live my life
The one I'd better lead
All the blondes are fantasies

And we looked at them eleven ways
You said, "Look at me". And looked away
And you wrote the song I wanna play
I'll write you harmony in C

Everybody,Everybody just wanna fall in love
Everybody,Everybody just wana play the lead

Hold it
i'm about to drive but
let me tell you my last thought
drift into a deep thought lost where i forgot to
hold it
i can feel you most when i'm alone
i can feel you most when i'm alone

coming home 'cause i want to
hang out with the starlet
stare up at the ceiling
human are speeding (?)
flashback of a feeling
sixth sense of a call and
heard you fuck through the wall
i heard you fuck

when i'm bored
i send vibrations, your direction, from a satellite mind
when i'm bored
i send vibrations, your direction, from a satellite mind

i've got suicidal
i just can't get out a bed
i drift into a deep thought lost where i forgot to hold it
i can feel you most when i'm alone
i can feel your ghost when i'm alone

coming home 'cause i want to
hang out with the starlet
stare up at the ceiling
hiding and revealing
flashback of a feeling
sixth sense of a call and
heard you fuck through the wall
i heard you fuck

when i'm bored
i send vibrations, your direction, from a satellite mind
when i'm bored
i send vibrations, your direction, from a satellite mind
when i'm bored
i send vibrations, your direction, from a satellite mind

from a satellite mind
it sounded like mine (x4)
from a satellite mind
it sounded like mine
(ooh ooh)

Did they tell you you should grow up
When you wanted to dream
Did they warn you, better shape up
If you want to succeed
I don't know about you
Who are they talking to
They're not talking to me

I'm higher than high
Lower than deep
I'm doing it wrong
Singing along

I'm higher than high
Lower than deep
I'm doing it wrong
Singing along

Did I ask you for attention
When affection is what I need
Thinking sorrow was perfection
I will wallow til you told me
There's no glitter in the gutter
There's no twilight galaxy

Go higher than high
Go lower than deep
Keep doing it wrong
Keep singing along

Go higher than high
Go lower than deep
Keep doing it wrong
Keep singing along

I'm alright, come on baby
I've seen all of the demons that you've got
If you're not alright, now come on baby
I'll pick you up and take you where you want
Anywhere you want
Anywhere you want
Anywhere you want
Anything you want

I'm higher than high
Lower than deep
I'm doing it wrong
Singing along

Go higher than high
Go lower than deep
Keep doing it wrong
Keep singing along

Go higher than high
Go lower than deep
Keep doing it wrong
Keep singing along

I'm higher than high

All the gold
And the guns
In the world
Couldn't get you off

All the gold
And the guns
And the girls
Couldn't get you off

All the boys
All the choices
In the world

I remember when
We were gambling to win
Everybody else said,
"Better luck next time."

I don't wanna bend
Like the bad girls bend
I just wanna be your friend
Is it ever gonna be enough?

Is it ever gonna be enough?
Is it ever gonna be enough?
Is it ever gonna be enough?

All the lace
And the skin
In the shop
Couldn't get you off

All the toys
And the tools
In the box
Couldn't get you off

All the noise
All the voices never stop

I remember when
We were gambling to win
Everybody else said,
"Better luck next time."

I don't wanna bend
Like the bad girls bend
I just wanna be your friend
Why you giving me a hard time?

I remember when
We were gambling to win
Everybody else said
Uh uh uh uh uh uh

Is it ever gonna be enough?
Is it ever gonna be enough?
Is it ever gonna be enough?

More and more
More and more
More and more
More and more and
More and more
More and more
More and more

Is it ever gonna be enough?

Get hot
Get too close to the flame
Wild open space
Talk like an open book
Sign me up
No time to take a picture
I'll remember someday
All the chances we took

We're so close to something better left unknown

I can feel it in my bones
Gimme sympathy
After all this is gone
Who would you rather be
The Beatles or The Rolling Stones?
Oh seriously
You gotta make mistakes you're young
Come on baby play me something,
Like she's come undone

Don't go
Stay with the all unknown
Stay away from the hooks
All the chances we took

We're so close to something better left unknown
We're so close to something better left unknown

I can feel it in my bones
Gimme sympathy
After all this is gone
Who would you rather be
The Beatles or The Rolling Stones?
Oh seriously
You gotta make mistakes you're young
Come on baby play me something,
Like she's come undone

. . .


If the fire's out baby
How you gonna keep me warm
Supposing you let me
With the door wide open no one can leave

I know it's a lie I want it to be true
The rest of the ride is riding on you
Over goodbyes we'll buy some place for
Wishing you could

Keep me closer
I'm a lazy dancer
When you move I move with you
Wishing you could

Keep me closer
I'm a lazy dancer
When you move I move with you

If somebody's got soul
If somebody's got soul
If somebody's got soul
If somebody's got soul
You gotta make the move
Make the move
Make the move

I know it's a lie I want it to be true
The rest of the ride is riding on you
Over goodbyes we'll buy some place for
Wishing you could

Keep me closer
I'm a lazy dancer
When you move I move with you
Wishing you could

Keep me closer
I'm a lazy dancer
When you move I move with you
Wishing you could

Keep me closer
I'm a lazy dancer
When you move I move with you
Wishing you could

Keep me closer
I'm a lazy dancer
When you move I move with you

ooooh ooooh ooooh

I'm in the front row with a bottle
Don't know what i can't decide
I'm in the front row i'm a model
Don't know what i can't describe

Burned out stars they shine so bright
All of us
Burned out stars they shine so bright

He's not perfect he's my hero
Smashing the piano
Spitting in the front row
Chronic confrontation
Psychic conversation
Radical compassion
Louder than the action
All of us

Burned out stars they shine so bright
All of us
Burned out stars they shine so bright
All the stars

I'm in the front row with a bottle
Don't know what i can't describe
I'm the front row i'm a model
Don't know what i can't decide

He's not perfect he's a victim
Of his occupation
Social insommation
Secret intervention
Charging with possession
I just wanna watch you
????

Burned out stars they shine so bright
All of us
Burned out stars they shine so bright
All the stars

ooooh ooooh ooooh

. . .


Send us a blindfold
Send us a blade
Tell the survivors
"Help is on the way"

I was a blindfold
Never complained
All the survivors
Singing in the rain

I was the one with
The world at my feet
Got us a battle
Leave it up to me

Find us a trapdoor
Find us a plane
Tell the survivors
"Help is on the way"

I was a blindfold
Who never complained
All the survivors
Singing in the rain

I was the one with
The world at my feet
Got us a battle
Leave it up to me

What it is and where it stops
Nobody knows
You gave me a life
I never chose
I wanna leave but the world
Won't let me go
Wanna leave but the world
Won't let me go

What it is and where it stops
Nobody knows
You gave me a life
I never chose
I wanna leave but the world
Won't let me go
Wanna leave but the world
Won't let me go

What it is and where it stops
Nobody knows
You gave me a life
I never chose
I wanna leave but the world
Won't let me go
Wanna leave but the world
Won't let me go

What it is and where it stops
Nobody knows
You gave me a life
I never chose

I was the one with
The world at my feet
Got us a battle
Leave it up to me

Leave it up to me
Leave it up to me

. . .


Wanna make a bet?
We'll be neck and neck
Taking off the gloves

Spider versus bat
Tiger versus rat
Rabbit versus dove

Wanna make a bet?
Odds are neck and neck
Taking off the gloves

Spider versus bat
Tiger versus rat
Owl versus dove

Every living thing
Pushed into the ring
Fight it out to wow the crowd
Guess you thought you could just watch

No one's getting out
Without stadium love
Without stadium love

Wanna make a trade?
Cougar for a snake
Wanna fall in love?

Wanna make a deal?
Angel versus eel
Owl versus dove

Every living thing
Pushed into the ring
Fight it out to wow the crowd
Guess you thought you could just watch

No one's getting out
Without stadium love
Without stadium love

We got stadium love
We got stadium love
We got stadium love
We got stadium love
Stadium love

Love
Love
Stadium love
Love
Love
Love

Saw the water, not the waves
Caught your eye, forgot your name
Always leaving, either way
I want you to stop me

Episodes to fantasize
TV movie of our lives
The future is all mine
I'll find it on my way back

When I'm gone
I'll know what I've done
I'll go where I don't belong

It's all, not one
I love everything
No sleep; I lose everything
Oh don't tell me again
I won't see you again

Not one
I love everything
No sleep; I lose everything
Oh, don't tell me again
I won't see you again

Saw the waves, but not the tide
I couldn't stay, I don't know why
A sailor married to the sea
My luck is a lost key

The door is locked from the inside
Don't wait around, I won't arrive
Keep a room somewhere for me
I'll find it on my way back

When I'm gone
I'll know what I've done
I'll go where I don't belong

It's all, not one
I love everything
No sleep; I lose everything
Oh don't tell me again
I won't see you again

Not one
I love everything
No sleep; I lose everything
Oh, don't tell me again
I won't see you again
