When you're looking at life,
In a strange new room, Maybe drowning soon, Is this the start of it all? Turn on your TV, Turn down your pulse, Turn away from it all, It's all getting too much. When you're looking at life, Deciphering scars, Just who fooled who, Sit still in their cars, The lights look bright, When you reach outside, Time for one last ride, Before the end of it all. |

I've seen the real atrocities,
Buried in the sand, Stockpiled for safety, While we stand holding hands. I'm living in the Ice age, I'm living in the Ice age, Nothing will hold, Nothing will fit, Into the cold, It's not an eclipse. Living in the Ice age, Living in the Ice age, Living in the Ice age. Searching for another way, Hide behind the door, We'll live in holes and disused shafts, Hopes for little more. I'm living in the Ice age, I'm living in the Ice age, Nothing will hold, Nothing will fit, Into the cold, No smile on your lips, Living in the Ice age, Living in the Ice age, Living in the Ice age. Living in the Ice age, Living in the Ice age, Living in the Ice age. Living in the Ice age |

See my true reflection,
Cut off my own connections, I can see life getting harder, So sad is this sensation, Reverse the situation, I can't see it getting better. I'll walk you through the heartbreak, Show you all the out takes, I can't see it getting higher, Systematically degraded, Emotionally a scapegoat, I can't see it getting better. Perverse and unrealistic, Try to make it all sick, I can't see it getting better, Hollow now, I'm burned out, All I need to break out, I can't see life getting higher, Love, life, makes you feel higher, Love, of life, makes you feel higher, Higher, higher, higher, higher, Higher, higher, higher, higher, Love of life, makes you feel higher. |

Hearts fail, young hearts fail,
Any time, pressurized, overheat, overtired. Take it quick, take it neat, Clasp your hands, touch your feet. Take it quick, take it neat, Take it quick, take it neat. Hearts fail, young hearts fail, Anytime, wearing down, On the run, underground, Put your hand where it's safe, Leave your hand where it's safe. Do it again, Do it again and again and again. Do it again and again and again. Do it again and again and again. Do it again and again and again. Anytime, that's your right. Don't you wish you do it again, Overheat, overtire. Don't you wish you do it again, Don't you wish you do it again, Don't you wish you do it again, Anytime, that's your right, Don't you wish you do it again, Anytime, that's your right. Don't you wish you do it again, Don't you wish you do it again, I bet you wish you do it again. Do it again. Do it again. Do it again. |

Made the fatal mistake,
Like I did once before, A tendency just to take, Til the purpose turned sour, Strain, take the strain, these days we love, Strain, take the strain, these days we love. Yeah, the only mistake was that you ran away, Avenues lined with trees, strangled words for the day, Yeah, the only mistake, like I made once before, Yeah, the only mistake, could have made it before. Strain, take the strain, these days we love, Strain, take the strain, these days we love. And the only mistake, led to rumours unfound, Led to pressures unknown, different feelings and sounds, Yeah, the only mistake, like I made once before, Yeah, the only mistake, could have made it before. |

All dressed in uniforms so fine,
They drank and killed to pass the time, Wearing the shame of all their crimes, With measured steps, they walked in line. They walked in line, They walked in line, They walked in line, They walked in line, They walked in line, They walked in line, They walked in line, They walked in line. They carried pictures of their wives, And numbered tags to prove their lives, They walked in line, They walked in line, They walked in line, They walked in line, They walked in line, They walked in line, They walked in line, They walked in line. Full of a glory never seen, They made it through the whole machine, To never question anymore, Hypnotic trance, they never saw, They walked in line, They walked in line, They walked in line, They walked in line, They walked in line, They walked in line, They walked in line, They walked in line, They walked in line, They walked in line, They walked in line, They walked in line, They walked in line, They walked in line, They walked in line, They walked in line, They walked in line, They walked in line, They walked in line, They walked in line, They walked in line, They walked in line, They walked in line, They walked in line, Walked in line, Walked in line. |

Moved in a hired car,
And I find no way to run, Adds every moment longer, Had no time for fun, Just something that I knew I had to do, But through it all I lefy my eyes on you. I had an impulse to clear it all away, Oh I used the tactics, make everybody pay, Just something that I knew I had to do, But through it all I kept my eyes on you. Oh, I keep it all clean, I've paid the graces there, No kings of misuse, No sellers of flesh, Just something that I knew I had to do, But through it all I kept my eyes on you, Yeah through it all I kept my eyes on you, But through it all I kept my eyes on you. |

Someone take these dreams away,
That point me to another day, A duel of personalities, That stretch all true realities. That keep calling me, They keep calling me, Keep on calling me, They keep calling me. Where figures from the past stand tall, And mocking voices ring the halls. Imperialistic house of prayer, Conquistadors who took their share. That keep calling me, They keep calling me, Keep on calling me, They keep calling me. Calling me, calling me, calling me, calling me. They keep calling me, Keep on calling me, They keep calling me, They keep calling me. |

This is why events unnerve me,
They find it all, a different story, Notice whom for wheels are turning, Turn again and turn towards this time, All she ask's the strength to hold me, Then again the same old story, Word will travel, oh so quickly, Travel first and lean towards this time. Oh, I'll break them down, no mercy shown, Heaven knows, it's got to be this time, Watching her, these things she said, The times she cried, Too frail to wake this time. Oh, I'll break them down, no mercy shown, Heaven knows, it's got to be this time, Avenues all lined with trees, Picture me and then you start watching, Watching forever, forever, Watching love grow, forever, Letting me know, forever. |

To the centre of the city where all roads meet, waiting for you,
To the depths of the ocean where all hopes sank, searching for you, I was moving through the silence without motion, waiting for you, In a room with a window in the corner I found truth. In the shadowplay, acting out your own death, knowing no more, As the assassins all grouped in four lines, dancing on the floor, And with cold streel, odour on their bodies mad a move to connect, But I could only stare in disbelief as the crowds all left. I did everything, everything I wanted to, I let them use you for their own ends, To the centre of the city in the night, waiting for you. To the centre of the city in the night, waiting for you. |

A legacy so far removed
One day will be improved Eternal rights we left behind We were the better kind Two the same - set free too I always looked to you -- This is the first verse on the Bains Douches live album: A legacy so far removed One day will be improved Secret trials - the judges warn Check like we've never borne Win the right to set free What you will be reprieved I put my trust in you -- We fought for good - stood side by side Our friendship never died On stranger waves - the lows and highs Our vision touched the skies Immortalists with points to prove [or in the Bains Douches live version: Captive souls - depleted soon] [and in the Still live version: Immortalists depart too soon] I put my trust in you -- A house somewhere on foreign soil Where ageing lovers call Is this your goal - your final needs? [or in the Bains Douches live version: Is this your goal - your final round?] [and in the Still live version: It's come to this - your final goal] Where dogs and vultures eat Committed still, I turn to go I put my trust in you -- In you, in you, in you Put my trust in you, in you |

This is a crisis, I knew had to come
Destroying the balance I'd kept Doubting, unsettling and turning around Wondering what will come next Is this the role that you wanted to live? I was foolish to ask for so much Without the protection and infancy's guard It all falls apart at first touch Watching the reel as it comes to a close Brutally taking it's time People who change for no reason at all Happening all of the time Can I go on with this train of events? Disturbing and purging my mind Back out of my duties when all's said and done I know that I'll lose every time Moving along in our God given ways Safety is sat by the fire Sanctuary from these feverish smiles Left with a mark on the door Is this the gift that I wanted to give? Forgive and forget's what they teach Or pass through the deserts and wastelands once more And watch as they drop by the beach This is the crisis I knew had to come Destroying the balance I'd kept Turning around to the next set of lives Wondering what will come next |

Change of speed, a change of style
A change of scene, with no regrets A chance to watch admire the distance Still occupied - though you forget Different colours, different shades Over each mistakes were made I took the blame Directionless, so plain to see A loaded gun won't set you free So you say We'll share a drink and step outside An angry voice and one who cried We'll give you everything and more The strain's too much, can't take much more Oh I've walked on water, run through fire Can't seem to feel it anymore It was me - waiting for me Hoping for something more Me - see me in this time - Hoping for something else |

Listen to the silence, let it ring on.
Eyes, dark grey lenses frightened of the sun. We would have a fine time living in the night, Left to blind destruction, Waiting for our sight. And we would go on as though nothing was wrong. And hide from these days we remained all alone. Staying in the same place, just staying out the time. Touching from a distance, Further all the time. Dance, dance, dance, dance, dance, to the radio. Dance, dance, dance, dance, dance, to the radio. Dance, dance, dance, dance, dance, to the radio. Dance, dance, dance, dance, dance, to the radio. Well I could call out when the going gets tough. The things that we've learnt are no longer enough. No language, just sound, that's all we need know, to synchronise love to the beat of the show. And we could dance. Dance, dance, dance, dance, dance, to the radio. Dance, dance, dance, dance, dance, to the radio. Dance, dance, dance, dance, dance, to the radio. Dance, dance, dance, dance, dance, to the radio. |

I've been waiting for a guide to come and take me by the hand,
Could these sensations make me feel the pleasures of a normal man? These sensations barely interest me for another day, I've got the spirit, lose the feeling, take the shock away. It's getting faster, moving faster now, it's getting out of hand, On the tenth floor, down the back stairs, it's a no man's land, Lights are flashing, cars are crashing, getting frequent now, I've got the spirit, lose the feeling, let it out somehow. What means to you, what means to me, and we will meet again, I'm watching you, I'm watching her, I'll take no pity from you friends, Who is right, who can tell, and who gives a damn right now, Until the spirit new sensation takes hold, then you know, Until the spirit new sensation takes hold, then you know, Until the spirit new sensation takes hold, then you know, I've got the spirit, but lose the feeling, I've got the spirit, but lose the feeling, Feeling, feeling, feeling, feeling, feeling, feeling, feeling. |

In fear every day, every evening
He calls her aloud from above Carefully watched for a reason Painstaking devotion and love Surrendered to self preservation From others who care for themselves A blindness that touches perfection But hurts just like anything else Isolation, isolation, isolation Mother, I tried please belief me I'm doing the best that I can I'm ashamed of the things I've been put through I'm ashamed of the person I am Isolation, isolation, isolation But if you could just see the beauty These things I could never describe This is my one lucky prize This is my one lucky prize Isolation, isolation, isolation Isolation |

Here are the young men, a weight on their shoulders
Here are the young men - well where have they been? We knocked on doors of Hell's darker chambers Pushed to the limits, we dragged ourselves in Watched from the wings as the scenes were replaying We saw ourselves now as we never had seen Portrayal of the traumas and degeneration The sorrows we suffered and never were free Where have they been -- Weary inside, now our heart's lost forever Can't replace the fear or the thrill of the chase These rituals showed up the door for our wanderings Opened and shut, then slammed in our face Where have they been -- |

Feel it closing in,
Feel it closing in, The fear of whom I call, Every time I call, I feel it closing in, I feel it closing in, Day in, day out, Day in, day out, Day in, day out, Day in, day out, Day in, day out, Day in, day out. I feel it closing in, As patterns seem to form. I feel it cold and warm. The shadows start to fall. I feel it closing in, I feel it closing in, Day in, day out, Day in, day out, Day in, day out, Day in, day out, Day in, day out. I'd have the world around, To see just whatever happens, Stood by the door alone, And then it's fade away. I see you fade away. Don't ever fade away. I need you here today. Don't ever fade away. Don't ever fade away. Don't ever fade away. Don't ever fade away. Fade away. Fade away. Fade away. Fade away. Fade away. Fade away. Fade away. |
