Nicky Wire Album

I killed the zeitgeist
Ground it all to dust
Left myself alone
Digging deeper holes

I killed the zeitgeist
Switched off all the lights
Glazed like aching snow
All metaphors for love

When I look at the sea
No reflections will appear
Pain like the shattering of glass
Tearing us all apart

I killed the zeitgiest
Anschluss within your heart
Ich bin ein Newporter
Das zeitgeist uber alles

I killed the zeitgeist
Ground it all to dust
Left myself alone
Digging deeper holes

When I look at the sea
No reflections will appear
Pain like the shattering of glass
Tearing us all apart

I killed the zeitgeist

I killed the zeitgeist

Do do doo

"It’s scary to watch someone you love go into the centre of himself and confront his fears...
Fear of failure, fear of death, fear of going insane
You have to fail a little, die a little, go insane a little to come out the other side."

Break my heart slowly
Dora Maar said to me
She came to me in a dream
Reaching out for luck with fear

She said:
"Hold on, hold on, hold on to your gun"

It was cold, the night was black
You could feel her freezing hands
Exiting a life of chance
Painted dead a million times

She said:
"Hold on, hold on, hold on to your gun"

If your life has changed
If it makes no sense
You can carry on
If you still belong
If your life has changed
If it makes no sense
You can carry on
If you still belong

C’mon, c’mon, c’mon, c’mon, c’mon, c’mon, c’mon

Break my heart slowly
Break my heart slowly

So c’mon now, c’mon now
So c’mon, c’mon, c’mon
So c’mon now, c’mon now
So c’mon, c’mon, c’mon

Holes full of bullshit - withdraw retreat
Futures built on sand - withdraw retreat
Concrete bunkers evermore - withdraw retreat
Even the clothes I'm in - withdraw retreat

I'm undone, I've seen through the dying of the sun
But that's enough to keep and dream on
When I'm in these walls well at least it keeps me real
But outside the world seems so fucking cheap
The world seems so fucking cheap

Plenty for us to kill - withdraw retreat
All we touch grows ill - withdraw retreat
Logos surround the view - withdraw retreat
Even the clothes I'm in - withdraw retreat
Time to admit defeat

The stasi is after me - withdraw retreat
Nature's secret police - withdraw retreat

Holes full of bullshit - withdraw retreat
Futures built on sand - withdraw retreat
Concrete bunkers evermore - withdraw retreat
Even the clothes I'm in - withdraw retreat

I'm undone, I've seen through the dying of the sun
But that's enough to keep and dream on
When I'm in these walls well at least it keeps me real
While outside the world seems so fucking cheap
Socialise at will
Give a smile until
You become so sick
And your mouth won't work

Goodbye suicide
Wipe the tears down from your eyes
Take my hand
Hold back pride - goodbye suicide

Goodbye suicide
Not for real but for this life
Au-revoir
Auf-wiedersein - goodbye suicide

Goodbye suicide
Never thought I'd tell a lie
See you later
Sianara- goodbye suicide

Goodbye suicide
Beautiful to be so kind
Forever been
But never seen - goodbye suicide

If the ending fits the words
If you struggle to be heard
You can only try so hard
You can only try so fucking hard

So goodbye suicide
Innocence is not a crime
Hold back fear
Don't let it near - goodbye suicide

Felt the shining path
Creeping up and making plans
Watch the governments crash
Hope dead, like jesus on the cross

Felt the shining path
Fingers crossed it will be the last
Felt the shining path
Fingers crossed it will be the last

And I want you to know
These feelings I show
Will fade like summer snow
For as long as we know

Felt the shining path
Breaking bones and shaking hands
I'm dealing with some loss
hHow can you cope when it moves so fast

Felt the shining path
Fingers crossed it will be the last
Felt the shining path
Fingers crossed it will be the last

And I want you to know
These feelings I show
Will fade like summer snow
For as long as we know

And I want you to know
These feelings I show
Will fade like summer snow
For as long as u know

And I want you to know
And I want you to know
And I want you to know

"The woods are lovely, dark and deep but I have promises to keep and miles to go before I sleep and miles to go before I sleep"

If someone could hold you now
If fate could play a different hand
All if all the broken hearts
Could be fixed not torn apart

Watching shadows on the wall
Some questions are impossible
And does God make a fool of us all
Watch the skies as sadness falls

Bits of me don't exist anymore
I can't replace what's been and gone
Cars and bits of silhuettes
Buy some time and learn to dance

Time comes too soon for you
Memories left to date and bruise
No control we're all at sea
In a world that's dissappeared

Broken scremas can kill you dreams
I wish I knew more about your fears
And if I could your eyes i would kiss
And fill up your time with laziness

Lets declare an amnesty
Ambitions dead for all to sea
Shake your fists we've grown too fast
Help me love and hold me close
Twist and turn so wonderful
Break your bones I'm coming home

If someone could hold you now
If someone could hold you now
Hold you now

We will walk together
We will walk together

Yeah you, you will always be my home
Yeah, the people - they don't know
What it means to be alone
Yeah you, you will always be my home
No, the feeling's never gone
It's a part of me that I love

We will walk together
We will never part
We'll tattoo ourselves
And each others hearts
And each others hearts

Yeah you, you will always be my home
Yeah you, you will always be my home
Even when the strength is low
It will never leave me now
Yeah you, you will always be my home
It will never be broken
Solitude has always won

We will walk together
We will never part
We'll tattoo ourselves
And each others hearts
We will walk together
We will never part
We'll tattoo ourselves
And each others hearts
And each others hearts
And each others hearts
And each others hearts

No fear of boredom
Embrace it, it's modern
It kills you all over
So much for the future

It's coming It's closing
As bright as this morning
So don't forget to lose yourself
So much for the future

Never said I loved you
Just that I would like too
It got so complicated
The debt has been update

Always being someone
Never being yourself
Fed you to the dragons
Nothing left to be said

When your up you gotta come back down
Feel the force you better wear your crown
Looking closer it will make you feel found

The friendship we have gathered
So quickly torn and shattered
Too fragile to be spoken
A heart dying and broken

Never stop believing
The truth can be deceiving
Breaking through your demons
Controlling all your feelings

When you're up you gotta come back down
Feel the force you better wear your crown
Look a little closer it will help you too feel found

"The road has taken alot of the great ones. Hank Williams, Buddy Holly, Otis Reading, Janice, Jimi Hendrix, Elvis. It's a god damn impossible way of life"

The boys in the band
They dont give a fuck
(The boys in the band The boys in the band)
All they want is some Kimino rock
(The boys in the band)

The men in suits
They just want a geisha
But so what

And all the tourists
They just want forever
To fuck

I want a postcard with my home address on
I want to send it and I want it to reach home
I want to see the things that always give me hope
The cold comfort of the inbetween I know

The boys in the band
Some don't get no sleep
(The boys in the band The boys in the band)
There's no enjoyment in watching meself weep

The boys in the band
They tear themselves apart
(The boys in the band The boys in the band)
Do you know you could die from a broken heart

Everything fades, nothing stays,
Tied to a place we don't belong,
Everything fades it may be delayed,
Frozen not dead, the grey and decayed.

Need a stranger to show me the truth,
Need somebody to help me through.

Everything fades it's no bad thing,
Trusting a side to what do clear.

Need a stranger to show me the truth,
Need somebody to help me through,
In our decline without the flow,
Nothing gained and nothing to show.

Everything fades so glorious day,
However we try we can't hold back time,
Failure can be good for your soul,
It tests your desires and leaves you alone.

Need someone, something, somehow,
Says to remember you as you are,
Need to shelter you from the storm,
Need a place that i can call home.

Like a prayer i can hear you calling,
Like a prayer i can hear you calling,
Like a prayer i can hear you calling for me,
Like a prayer i can hear you calling
