Can't leave you alone
We can't leave you alone no

You can't hide from the flipside
Your foolish pride
Can't sustain the strain
Trouble bubbles inside
You can try but you cannot resist
If we insist
Persistent, every instant, every moment in time
We are on your mind

Can't leave you alone
We can't leave you alone no

We have ways to make you understand
We demand you let us in
Under your skin
You tuned in to the frequency
We can't let you be
We live happily
Beneath
On the underneath
On the inside
The flipside

Can't leave you alone
We can't leave you alone no

In your search for contentment
Tormented, unrelenting
Turbulent intent
And all the money spent
You will listen precisely to each word
As it reoccurs
We insinuate, irritate, we can't dissipate
Deflate your ego
Give up self control

Can't leave you alone
We can't leave you alone no
We can't leave you alone
Can't leave you alone no

When will it end?
Delerium is back again
We will suspend
Numbskulls are back around again
Trouble bubbles inside
You cannot hide from the flipside
We are in your mind
Every instant, every moment in time

We're alive and we will survive
As a part of you
Listen if we want you to
Can't you see?
Just a part of you are we
Surround sound you can't turn it down
A little frequency dependency
You are we, all on your own
We can't leave you alone no

We can't leave you alone
We can't leave you alone no
We can't leave you alone
We just can't leave you alone
(Give up self control)

Knee deepen
We deepen the game
In deeper
Don't walk away

Just foolish dreamers
We aspire
Do we deserve all that we desire?
If you decide that we can't set your heart alight
We'll walk on into the night

We know that there's no need to fear
We are there we are here
We move, we move, we move, we move on
So long
We're long gone

Knee deepen (knee deepen)
We deepen the game (the game)
In deeper (deepen)
Don't walk away (walk away)
Knee deepen (knee deepen)
We deepen the game (the game)
In deeper (in deeper)
Don't walk away

We will remember you
No, we won't forget
No, no fear of regret
And though we are the ones who walk into the night (we go on)
We won't vanish out of sight
We get over it, we go beyond
We find a way to get along
We move, we move, we move, we move on (we move we move)
So come on (come on), if you want to come along (come along, come along)

Knee deepen (knee deepen)
We deepen the game (the game)
In deeper (deepen)
Don't walk away (walk away)
Knee deepen (knee deepen)
We deepen the game (the game)
In deeper (deepen)
Don't walk away

We go on, we go on, we go on and on
We go on, come along, we go on and on
(we go on and on, we go on)

Knee deepen
We deepen the game (we go on)
In deeper (we go on)
Don't walk away (the game)
Knee deepen (deepen)
We deepen the game (the game)
In deeper (deepen)
Don't walk away (the game)

(we deepen)
We deepen the game (the game)
(we deepen)
Don't walk away

If you hear me, baby, blink!
Do you even have the capability left to think?
There seems to be a missing link
Everybody's had a chance to see how far I can sink

As I try to call you back
As I try to call you back from the brink
If you hear me, baby, blink!

You're just so uptight
I don't suppose you have the energy to put up a fight
You just might implode before I get a chance at cracking the code
Take a good look around
Milk and honey's getting thin on the ground
If you hear me then make a sound

If you hear me, baby, blink!
As I try to call you back
As I try to call you back from the brink

If you hear me, baby, blink!
As I try to call you back
As I try to call you back from the brink

There will be no recompense when I'm screaming in the face of your silence
Still I draw a blank
Can't go down any further than I've already sank
If you're not there at all
Someone tell me why I'm talking to the wall
Do you hear me call?

If you continue to ignore these resonable demands
I'll be drawing up a new plan
The future is in your hands
Isn't it a crying shame your little game of hide and seek
Became so tiresome to me sometime last week?
The future is bleak

If you hear me, baby, blink!
As I try to call you back
As I try to call you back from the brink
If you hear me, baby, blink!
As I try to call you back

The lights are off
I know you're home
I burn your letters begging me to leave you alone
Keep your privacy
Your inner thoughts mean nothing to me
If you are waiting for me to take on my fair share of the blame
Honey your efforts are in vain
If you hear me call my name

If you hear me, baby, blink!
(If you hear me call your name)
As I try to call you back
As I try to call you back from the brink [repeat]

If you hear me, baby, blink!
As I try to call you back
As I try to call you back from the brink

Anybody, is there anybody in there?
Is there anybody, anybody in there?
Anybody, is there anybody in there?
Is there anybody?

[No lyrics]

Tell me dearest enemy what you make of me
I didn't last, so fast you blast kinetic energy
I can't erase the memory

If I put a foot wrong
You could laugh out loud, like you've been laughing to yourself all along
Such lies, sweet hush of lullabies
In a small town loose talk it kind of gets around

I must reject all that I once believed
I've been deceived
Behind my back
I am quietly and suredly under attack

Downsized I guess I shouldn't be surprised
Two faced the time has come to be replaced
Betrayal, tiny minds
Something sinister's going on behind

You were my downfall
See me crawl, one and all
If I could only be a fly on the wall
Nothing is clear
So sincere in my ear
You look so pretty when you sneer
Behind the smile, sweet child
You were grinding your teeth all the while
Betrayed, low grade
Always delayed
Did you ever have the slightest intention to stay?

(Doo duh dee-dum doo duh doo)

[Thanx a lot to Joaquim for corrected some mistakes]

Please accept my humble apology
S should've never happened
O oh my god how could I?
R rotten thing to do
R really didn't mean it
Y why'd I have to go and do a thing like that?
I'm sorry, so sorry,
I'm so sorry darling
Sorry
Well?

When you are ready, I will surrender
Take me and do as you will
Have what you want, your way's always the best way
I have succumbed to this passive sensation
Peacefully falling away
I am the zombie your wish will command me
Laugh as I fall to my knees

Can I control this empty delusion?
Lost in the fire below
And you come running your eyes will be open
And when you come back, I'll be as you want me
Only so eager to please
My little song will keep you beside me
Thinking your name as I sing

(Sing it back to me)
(Sing it back to me)

No, you can't help it if you have been tempted
By fruit hanging ripe on the tree
And I feel useless
Don't care what the truth is
You will be here come the day
Truth do you hear me?
Don't try to come near me
So tired I sleep through the lie
If you desire to lay here beside me
Come to my sweet melody

Sing it back to me (sing it)
Bring it back (sing it)
Sing it back (sing it)
Bring it back
Sing it back to me

(Sing it, sing it, sing it)
(Sing it back to me)

Bring it back
Sing it back
Bring it back
Sing it back to me

(Burn... burn... burn...)

So if I blaze a trail
Hammer the final nail
So if I shake you off my tail
How can I fail?

Down, pretty bridges burn, all my bridges burnt
Burnt down pretty bridges burn all my bridges burnt

Nausea the vertical climb
A fatal flaw in the design
I can't be sure that you'll open the door to me
The double indemnity

(Burn... burn... burn...)

A mouthful of pleasurable sensation
Shaken by sheer anticipation
Glad you asked me, I had to dash, you see
It's been a blast

(Burn)

All my bridges burn
All my pretty bridges burn
Each one in their turn
All my pretty bridges burn
Burn, pretty bridges burn
All my bridges burn
Will I ever learn?
Watch all my pretty bridges burn

Hysterical look at this chaos
All that I had and all that I lost
You are feeling sleepy
Very very sleepy

Down, pretty bridges burn, all my bridges burnt
Burnt down pretty bridges burn all my bridges burnt
Burnt down pretty bridges burn all my bridges burnt

As for the bitter taste
Let it vanish into the flames
Don't let it go to waste
All the places and the names
This is the master stroke
Raised to the ground
And it all goes up in smoke
All my bridges burn

All my bridges burn
All my pretty bridges burn
Each one in their turn
All my pretty bridges burn
Burn, pretty bridges burn
All my bridges burn
Will I ever learn?
Watch all my pretty bridges burn

Down, pretty bridges burn, all my bridges burnt
Burnt down pretty bridges burn all my bridges burnt [x3]

(Burn...)

All my bridges burn
All my pretty bridges burn
Each one in their turn
All my pretty bridges burn
Burn, pretty bridges burn
All my bridges burn
Will I ever learn?
Watch all my pretty bridges burn

(Burn... burn... burn...)

I'm the sidekick
The mimic
Ventriloquistic
(My lips moved) and you missed it
I need to know the mystery
Of your misery
(Give me some of that) magic
(I wanna be) I wanna be tragic

I wish I could just Xerox
(This is the paradox)
(You're waves) You're waves (in my brain) in my brain
(We could be) We could be one and the same
(Deep) Deep and meaningful artistic endeavor
(It's plain) it's plain (disdain) disdain
Makes you look clever

Everybody wants to be like you
Ah, show me what to do
Everybody wants to feel the way you do
Me too

I must fulfill my destiny
(Feel the force) Feel the force of your fury
Cock sure, you're a genius
Give me some (Give me some), reflect your glory
(All knowing) All knowing, (all bleeding) all bleeding
(I can dig it) I can dig it, Daddio
Tell me, show me, which way to go
(I really want to know)

Everybody wants to be like you
Ah, show me what to do
Everybody wants to feel the way you do
Me too

Everybody wants to be like you
Ah, show me what to do
Everybody wants to feel the way you do
Me too

Everybody wants to be like you
Ah, tell me what to do
Everybody wants to feel the way you do
Take me with you

Ah, show me what to do

Me too, take me with you (ah), take me with you (ah)...

Listen for the calling, use your pleasure
Perchance a wish and it just might come true
Beautiful is beautiful forever
You'll see yourself in me
Caught in a whisper
This is the meaning
Caught in a whisper
This is the meaning

(Get back into society)
(Back into the community)

Dimensions are parallel
But there's this funny smell
All functions are shutting down
Everything's brown
Laxadasical haze
Not phased by the maze
I'm so sick
I forgot all about my outfit

(Back into society)
(Go back into the community)

My skin is turning green
Feels like neoprene
This radioactivity
Has gotten inside of me
Oh, the shame!
Just being the same
As that Tom, Dick and Harry
I wanna be Larry

Come see Dr Zee
(Go/get back into society)
New identity
(Back into the community)

This so called lunachic
It's just so last week
Get it right in rehearsal
Try to think universal
Through the looking glass
Now tell me what do you see?
With a little hard work
We could be pretty

Come see Dr Zee
(Go/get back into society)
New identity
(Back into the community)

Come see Dr Zee
(Go/get back into society)
New identity
(Back into the community)

Oh, so frivolous!
I look ridiculous
A walking absurdity
Afraid of obscurity
Mm, this elegance
Has lost its relevance
Nasty rumours are doing the rounds
And it's all over town

Come see Dr Zee
(Go/get back into society)
New identity
(Back into the community)

Come see Dr Zee
(Go/get back into society)
New identity
(Back into the community)

This monstrosity
Impending irony
Is playing on my mind
Still I'm one of a kind

Come see Dr Zee
(Go/get back into society)
New identity
(Back into the community)

(Get back into society)
(Back into the community)
(Get back into society)
(Get back into the community)
(Back into society)
(Back into the community)
(Back into society)
(Get back into the community)
(Back into society)
(Back into the community)
(Back into society)
(Ba...)

Come see Dr Zee
(Go/get back into society)
New identity
(Back into the community)

Come see Dr Zee
(Go/get back into society)
New identity
(Back into the community)

[Fade in chorus]

(You see, it goes like this)

Momma, don't you turn away
Just because I've gone astray
Out of the fire, into the frying pan, this is the story of a sorry man
I have been known to deviate myself from the path that is set
But let us not forget about the man who decided to dedicate his life to the jetset
He is now just a shadow of his former self
And dark clouds hover overhead
The living dead, move over, you see it goes like this

I could be a mover, I could be a shaker, don't you try to get in my way
I'm the heart breaker, the money maker, this will all be mine one day
Well

I myself do not think that such a raw ambition, his disposition
To be a sin in itself, though
Should we not forget about the mess that he got himself in

Where now stands this meek and empty man, there once was a typhoon
Earthquaking, a phenomena, higher than the rest of us
'Cause he was steppin' on us, steppin' over people
And this is how the story goes, folks

I will go undefeated, I'll be protected
You think you're big time, I'll show you big time
Hollerin' and swallowin' air, crawling in the pit of dispair

Once he got his foot in the door,
well you know he was a fast stepper, a bad taste in the mouth kind of guy,
funny fella though, always had a joke or two,
but be careful, the joke could be on you
Did you ever hear the one about the id, the ego, the super ego,
the monumental man sat back to watch his automobile grow
He was a Lamborghini kind of guy, got so high
He would swear he could touch the sky
But the sky was the limit

He was calling, he was crawling, riddled by the immensities of life,
ladies of the night would call all hours of the day, every day, all day,
calling for his mommy when the day was done
Yes, he was moving, he was shaking, so lonesome tonight,
And his eyes belied his smile awhile,
Calling for his mummy but his mummy didn't come

Once he got his foot in the door,
well you know he was a fast stepper, a bad taste in the mouth kind of guy,
funny fella though, always had a joke or two,
but be careful, the joke could be on you
Did you ever hear the one about the id, the ego, the super ego,
the monumental man sat back to watch his automobile grow
He was a Lamborghini kind of guy, got so high
He would swear he could touch the sky
But the sky was the limit

I could be a mover, I could be a shaker, don't you try to get in my way
I'm the heart breaker, the money maker, this will all be mine one day
I will go undefeated, I'll be protected
You think you're big time, I'll show you big time
Hollerin' and swallowin' air, crawling in the pit of dispair

Am I out of my depth?
Uninterrupted multiplicity, this is where you lose me
Come again, if you please?
Aluminium lunar luminous is taking over us
Am I missing the point?
This reeling speel, forgive me if I'm wrong
But are you making this up as you go along?
And it bores me to tears
Get a handle on the dialogue
It's a one man show
It's a monologue

I could be slow I don't know
You just went over my head
I don't understand a word you just said

I could be slow I don't know
You just went over my head
I don't understand a word you just said

I can't figure it out
This cascading fountain of nothingness, you're a mess
I simply cannot believe
You met a mighty metamorphous, that's ridiculous
I am somewhat confused
Selected, collected from the gene pool
They can keep you youthful?
Well, excusez-moi, Monsieur Cosmique, je suis protoplasmique, qu'est-ce que c'est?

How can I spell it out for you
I am no ordinary fool
And even though there's nothing left to say
You go ahead and say it anyway

I could be slow I don't know
You just went over my head
I don't understand a word you just said

I could be slow I don't know
You just went over my head
I don't understand a word you just said

I could be slow I don't know
You just went over my head
I don't understand a word you just said

I could be slow I don't know
You just went over my head
I don't understand a word you just said

I could be slow I don't know
You just went over my head
I don't understand a word you just said

I could be slow I don't know
You just went over my head
I don't understand a word you just said

I could be slow I don't know
You just went over my head
I don't understand a word you just said

Some of you will already know there's no place to go
This is the modern man, as good as I am
Here in the heart of the sun my memory melts
Swellegant, elephant pain, he never forgets
Should've been a beautiful thing
Could've been a beautiful thing

Pull over to the side of the road, let the bold be bold
Luxury at a low introductory price, now wouldn't that be nice?
A happy little family puts you in a trance meanwhile back at the ranch
Insatiable hand-held flexible friend, why not give him a chance?
Could've been a beautiful thing
Should've been, could've been a beautiful thing

Promises of pleasure mesmerised, but how far can we get?
At least here in the eye of the storm I won't get my hairdo wet
Some of you have already foreseen yourself undone
Some of you seem to believe you've only just begun
Try a little perjury, get rich quick
My eyes are bigger than my belly is, and it makes me sick
Attitude, so much to prove, should've been a beautiful thing
Some of you will already know, and I'm still wondering
Should've been a beautiful thing
Could've been a beautiful thing
I could've been, should've been, could've been a beautiful thing
Could've been a beautiful thing
Should've been, would've been a beautiful thing

(How we love to disguise)
