Intro

[No lyrics]

. . .


The faces all around me they don't smile they just crack
Waiting for our ship to come but our ships not coming back
We do have time like pennies in a jar
What are we saving for [x2]

There's a smell of stale feeling that's drinking from my skins
The drinking never stops because the drink off all our sins
We sit and throw our roots into the floor
What are we waiting for [x2]

[chorus]
So give me something to believe
Cause I am living just to breathe
And I need something more
To keep on breathing for
So give me something to believe

Something's always coming you can hear it in the ground
It swells into the air
With the rising
Rising sound
And never comes but shakes the boards and rattles all the doors
What are we waiting for [x2]

[chorus]
So give me something to believe
Cause I am living just to breathe
And I need something more
To keep on breathing for
So give me something to believe

I am hiding from some beast
But the beast was always here
Watching without eyes
Because the beast is just my fear
That I am just nothing
Now its just what I've become
What am I waiting for
Its already done

Ohhhhhhh

[chorus]
So give me something to believe
Cause I am living just to breathe
And I need something more
To keep on breathing for
So give me something to believe

. . .


Tell me
Come on tell me what you can
Even as you wait for death your wiser than I am
Tell me what does it mean to exist
I am not a scientist I must believe there's more to this
And I can not accept
That everything is real
Is only what our eyes can see
And our hands can feel

[chorus]
Not even earth can hold us
Not even life controls us
Not even the ground can keep us down
The memories in my head
Are just as real the time we spent
You always be close to me
My friend
This is not the end

I see
I can see your so afraid
We are like the silver herd on u even feel obscured
I wish I wish I had some words to give
But all I can think to say
Is I will be with you everyday

[chorus]
Not even earth can hold us
Not even life controls us
Not even the ground can keep us down
The memories in my head
I just realized the time we spent
You always be close to me
My friend
This is not the end

La la la la la
This is not the end
La la la l al la
This is not the end

I don't care
I don't care what you believe
As long as you are in my heart
Your just as real as me
Maybe even more
And one has touched so many lifes
And never never die

[chorus]
Not even earth can hold us
Not even life controls us
Not even the ground can keep us down
The memories in my head
I just realized the time we spent
You always be close to me
My friend
This is not the end

. . .


Every word from your mouth is a knife in my ear
Every thought in your head is like poison to hear

Like a snake in a suit spitting into the air
With a tongue like a needle and we're shot full of fear
White picket teeth and a big red alert
The life of the party and we pulled up our skirt

It's like poison
It's like poison

Every word from your mouth is a knife in my ear
Every thought in your head is like poison to hear

A fool is a devil and a devil's a fool
With a fork-tongue needle and you got us all fooled
A monkey doing tricks and we couldn't resist
If this isn't evil then I don't know what is

It's like poison
It's like poison

Every word from your mouth is a knife in my ear
Every thought in your head is like poison to hear

Every word from your mouth is a knife in my ear

. . .


We are lies like the summertime
Like the spring we are such fools
Like fall we are the prophets
Like winter we are cruel

I don't know what's wrong with us
They just made us this way
There's a hole in you and me
That pulls us together

And I don't know where we belong
I think we grew under a bad sun
I know we're not like everyone
You and me we grew, under a bad sun

Every day you bring me pain
And we savor it like rain
We hold it on our tongues
Just like wine

Someday back when we were young
I guess something just went wrong
The two of us are hung
From the same twisted rope

And I don't know where we belong
I think we grew under a bad sun
I know we're not like everyone
You and me we grew under a bad sun [x2]

You and me we grew under a bad sun

. . .



Whenever I look back
On the best days of my life
I think I saw them all on T.V.
I am so homesick now for
Someone that I never knew
I am so homesick now for
Someplace I will never be

Time won't let me go
Time won't let me go
If I could do it all again
I'd go back and change everything
But time won't let me go

I never had a 'Summer of 69'
Never had a Cherry Valance of my own
All these precious moments
You promised me would come in time
So where was I when I missed mine?

Time won't let me go
Time won't let me go
If you gave me back those years
I'd do it all better I swear
Time won't let me go

Ba ba ba ba ba...

If I could go back once again
I would change everything, yeah
If I could go back once again
I'd do it all so much better

Time won't let me go
Time won't let me go
If I could do it all again
I'd go back and change everything
But you won't ever let me go

Ba ba ba ba ba...

Tragedy Bound
Looking for clues
I'm starting to suspect she likes abuse
I'm starting to feel like she doesn't feel
Is there anybody in there?

Tragedy Bound
She is a mess
Her daddy was a demon watching her dress
He shriveled her down, wore her like a crown
Is there anybody in there?
All her life, she's bound to lose

Tragedy Bound
I feel sick
Her daddy was killed, her feelings were mixed
He wore a hole in her skin, now all the boys look in
Is there anybody in there?

Tragedy Bound
Now she's stuck
She can't even care enough to fuck
She's cutting herself just to see if it works
Is there anybody in there?

All her life, she's bound to lose
Tragedy bound
If I met this man
Whout would I say? How could I speak
How could I speak

. . .


Every morning I wake up and you are home
But in your eyes I see that I'm alone
You've left me with your body in my arms
But I can't feel you anymore - You are gone

I can touch your skin but you aren't there
Frustration burns in me, it's more than I can bear
I wanna take you in my fists and squeeze the life back into you
But there is nothing I can do - You are gone
And I can hold you in my hands
But you are gone, you are gone, you are gone

You've slipped away like a fistful of sand
You are gone, you are gone, you are gone

I am staring straight into your eyes
You never turn away or tell me lies
But you are with some other man while I am lying next to you
And there is nothing I can do, you are gone

. . .


Oh Angelina
You are the sun and the moon
Every song I ever sang, I stole it from you
I knew that nothing could tear us apart, I never even gave it a second thought
I was so sure and I was wrong, Now every single thing I ever had is gone

Nothing here is set in stone
Nothing's ever set in stone
Everything I have some day will fall apart and fade away

Oh Angelina
I learned my lesson this time
I took you for granted for so long And now I just wanna die
Every thing I ever got, I never even gave it a second thought
I was so sure, I was so sure - Now there's only one thing I know for sure

Nothing here is set in stone
Nothing's ever set in stone
Everything I have some day will fall apart and fade away

[Solo]

Nothing here is set in stone
Nothing's ever set in stone
Everything I have some day will fall apart and fade away

Nothing here is set in stone
Nothing's ever set in stone
Everything I have some day will fall apart and fade away

Nothing here is ever set in stone

. . .


Split me wide open and look right inside
There's so many things that I tried to hide
Oh you see right through me
You always see right through me

Split me wide open, and cut me in two
There's nothing that I could ever hide from you
Oh you always knew me, you're the only one who knew me

Is nothing sacred, is nothing saved?
Your gentle eyes like a razor blade
They cut me open, you look right through
I give it all to you

Split me wide open, and cut it at all
My hands on your body like a blind man's on a wall
Oh you always show me, you're the only one who shows me

Pinned to a wall, I am hung from a tree
For all these drooling faces that can look up and see

But you always knew me, you're the only one who knew me

Is nothing sacred, is nothing saved?
Your gentle eyes like a razor blade
They cut me open and look right through
I give it all to you

Split me wide open
Split me wide open

Is nothing sacred, is nothing saved?
Your gentle eyes like a razor blade
They cut me open, you look right through
I give it all to you

Split me wide open
Split me wide open

Oh you always knew me, you're the only one who knew me

Split me wide open
Split me wide open

Oh you see right through me, you always see right through me

. . .


Ooowwww
Ooowwww

Sometimes I feel
Like I wanna leave this place for good
Under the ground
I'll live down there without a sound
And never hear
These hissing voices all the same
I'll disappear
Causing living makes me feel ashamed

Ooowwww
Ooowwww

I must believe
There's more above us and below
I must believe
Stranded with this bitch called hope
It keeps me hear
When all I wanna do is go
It keeps me hear
When all I wanna do is disappear

If this is it
When all we have and ever will
If this is it
Time is running out and standing still
I'll leave today
Cause there's nothing left to keep me hear
I'll fade away
I'll turn my back and disappear

The city moves
Lunges up right from the ground
The seething Earth
It opens up and spits us out
This vicious child
Nature never wanted us
This vicious child
A cancer burning black into it's heart

If this is it
When all we have and ever will
If this is it
Time is running out and standing still
I'll leave today
Cause there's nothing left to keep me hear
I'll fade away
I'll turn my back and disappear

Ooowwww
Sometimes I feel
Like I wanna leave this place for good
Under the ground
I'll live down there without a sound
And never hear
These hissing voices all the same
I'll disappear
Causing living makes me feel ashamed

If this is it
When all we have and ever will
If this is it
Time is running out and standing still
I'll leave today
Cause there's nothing left to keep me hear
I'll fade away
I'll turn my back and disappear
I'll turn my back and disappear

. . .


I climbed up a mountain, and looked off the edge
And all of the lies that I never have led
Is one where I stayed with you, accross the sea
I wonder do you still think of me
I carry your image always in my head
Folded and yellowed and torn at the edge
And i've look upon it for so many years
Slowy im loosing your face

[chorus]
Oh the ocean rows us away, away, away
The ocean rows us away

Sixs and sevens we live on jet planes
And so many faces I don't know the names
So many friends now and none of them mine
Forgotten as soon as we meet
All of these moments are lost in time
Your caught on my head like a thorn on a vine
But to hurt but to mend me that I wonder why
Do I wish i've never known you at all

[chorus]
Oh the ocean rows us away, away, away
The ocean rows us away

Oh the ocean rows us away, away, away
The ocean rows us away

The sun and the moon
An ocean of air
So many voices
But nothing is there
The ghost of you asking me why
Why did I leave

[chorus]

Oh the ocean rows us away, away, away
The ocean rows us away

Oh the ocean rows us away away away

And I loose your hand through the waves

. . .


I'm in your head like a rat in the walls.
I'm in your head like a rat in the walls.
I'm in your head like a rat in the walls. Ohh. Ohh.

(Ohh. Ohh.)

Every single night when you're lying in bed,
you can hear a scratchin' in the back of your head.
I don't know what I did, but I'm under your skin;
I'm on your mind and you can't get me off.

You try to get away, get away, get away.
You try to get away, get away, get away.
You try to get away, get away, get away, but you keep coming back.

I'm in your head like a rat in the walls.
I'm in your head like a rat in the walls.
I'm in your head like a rat in the walls. Ohh. Ohh.

Just like a horse coming back to the stable,
I know you want to leave me, but you are unable.
It's instinct now just like ringing a bell; Pavlov would be proud.

You try to get away, get away, get away.
You try to get away, get away, get away.
You try to get away, get away, get away, but you keep coming back.

I'm in your head like a rat in the walls.
I'm in your head like a rat in the walls.
I'm in your head like a rat in the walls. Ohh. Ohh.

(Ohh. Ohh.)

You try to get away, get away, get away.
You try to get away, get away, get away.
You try to get away, get away, get away, but you keep coming back.

I'm in your head like a rat in the walls.
I'm in your head like a rat in the walls.
I'm in your head like a rat in the walls. Ohh. Ohh.

I'm in your head like a rat in the walls.
I'm in your head like a rat in the walls
I'm in your head like a rat in the walls. Ohh. Ohh. Ohh. Ohh.

. . .


When I hold you I am just trying to feel
That thing inside of you that I once thought was real
See that light I thought I saw but it was never there at all

I put these things of you I wanted to believe
But they're unreal; it seems I made them in my dreams
I see illusions of the things that I just wanted you to be

And I see faces in the darkness
I hear voices in the air
I see shadows all around me
But no one's there
No one's there

I see faces
I see faces

You're speaking but your lips don't match the words
It's just voices in my head
I want someone to love so badly, I don't know what's real anymore

And I see faces in the darkness
I hear voices in the air
I see shadows all around me
But no one's there
No one's there

I see faces
I see faces

. . .


Everyone knows what to do
But nobody told me
Lookin' at me like they knew
Something nobody told me
And everyone knows where to go
But nobody told me
They're walking around like they know
Something no one told me

[Chorus]
And I wanna know
Who left me out
And I wanna know
Who let me down
I wanna know who left me out

Who left me out

Everyone knows what to say
But nobody told me
They walk around with a smile on their face
But nobody told me
And everyone knows what to do
But nobody told me
They're looking at me like I knew
Something no one told me

[Chorus]
And I wanna know
Who left me out
And I wanna know
Who let me down
I wanna know who left me out

Everyone knows where to be
But nobody told me
I wish they could see what they see
But nobody told me
So maybe it's just me
It must have been me...

[Chorus]
And I wanna know
Who left me out
And I wanna know
Who let me down
I wanna know who left me out

Yeah!

. . .


[Chorus]
With your long blonde hair and your eyes are blue
The only thing I ever get from you is sorrow (sorrow)

You're liked and fun;
Spendin all my money
You're out there playing your high-class games
Sorrow (Sorrow)

You never do what you know you 'outta
Something tells me you're the devil's daughter
Sorrow (Sorrow)

I tried to find her 'cause I can't resist her
I never knew just how much I missed her
Sorrow (Sorrow)

[Chorus]
With your long blonde hair and your eyes are blue
The only thing I ever get from you was sorrow (sorrow)

Your long blonde hair
I couldn't sleep last night
...With your long blonde hair (long blone hair)

. . .


All the games the dandy plays,
All the things he never said,
Multiplies a thousand ways
And ends up wishing he were dead.

He fires away, he fires a miss,
Ignites a fire in his walls.
It chokes the breath, chokes the life,
While no one hears him as he calls.

Going alone, sometimes you know
You're gonna feel that no one's around.
Chances you take while everything
You face is always bringing you down.
None ever knows why they are here
Until they're braced and head for the ground,
Always in need of standing tall.

And to most, he's just a ghost
In a world he never chose.
Is there hope for such a fool
With a past that can't be closed?

He fires away, he fires a miss,
Ignites a fire in his walls.
It chokes the breath, chokes the life,
While no one hears him as he calls.

Going alone, sometimes you know
You're gonna feel that no one's around.
Chances you take while everything
You face is always bringing you down.
None ever knows why they are here
Until they're braced and head for the ground,
Always in need of standing tall.

Going alone, sometimes you know
You're gonna feel that no one's around.
Chances you take while everything
You face is always bringing you down.
None ever knows why they are here
Until they're braced and head for the ground,
Always in need of standing tall.
