I got a number on me
I got a number Won't make it through the high noon sun Well I am my father's son And I am my father's son His bed is made And I was a hero Early in the morning I ain't no hero In the night I am my father's son And I'll build a house inside of you I'll go in through the mouth I'll draw three figures on your heart One of them will be me as a boy And one of them will be me And One of them will be me watching you run Watching you run Into the high noon sun Watching you run Farther than guns will go You are a runner With a stolen voice And you are a runner And I am my father's son I am my father's son I am my father's son |

I'm not in love with the modern world
I'm not in love with the modern world It was a torch driving the savages back to the trees Modern world has more ways And I don't mention it since it's changed While the people go out and the people come home again It's gotta last to build up your eyes And a lifetime of red skies And from my bed the sound of your haunted hissing in my bed Modern world don't ask why Cause modern world will build things high Now they house canyons filled with life Modern world I'm not pleased to meet you You just bring me down Modern world I'm not pleased to meet you You just bring me down Modern world I'm not pleased to meet you You just bring me down Modern world I'm not pleased to meet you You just bring me down |

You said you hate the sound
Of the buses on the ground You said you hate the way they scrape their brakes all over town Said pretend it's whales Keeping their voices down Such were the grounds for divorce I know On the radio And the bouncing body drone Found eighteen reasons I can't pick up on the phone Said look at the clouds It's a show all on its own Such were the grounds for divorce I know But the darling is dead We hit her on the head It looked like a wedding cake But the darling is dead We hit her on the head It looked like a newlywed But I look at the lovers And they way they stand And the way they move and the way move their hands And I look at their babies And their tiny little hands And the way they get loved and the way they get loved Oh look at the lovers And they way they stand And the way they move and the way move and the way move their hands Said you hate the sound Of the buses on the ground Said you hate the way they scrape their brakes all over town Said pretend it's whales Keeping their voices down Such were the grounds for divorce I know Looked like a newlywed On the radio And the bouncing body drone Found eighteen reasons I can't pick up on the phone Said look at the clouds It's a show all on its own Such were the grounds, such were the grounds for divorce I know |

At the party we got chained at the wrists
Outside there's girls saying It's not gonna be just only a kiss Everyone's disguised just a little bit I had a bad bad time tonight I had a bad bad time tonight Bad things happen in the night Where we built another world Styles surround you here comes the night time Where we built another world Evening time I made a loud sound and shake some teeth Saw the lights pale across the street It's not gonna be just only a kiss Everyone's disguised just a little bit I had a bad bad time tonight I had a bad bad time tonight Bad things happen in the night Where we built another world Styles surround you here comes the night time Where we built another world Evening time Where we built another world Hang ghosts from the trees and that's what I saw Where we built another world Hang ghosts from the trees and that's what I saw Where we built another world Where we built another world Where we built another world Here comes the night time |

Oh, behold
The parapet's fallen out Oh, behold! When it reaches the ground Oh, behold Oh, behold When We can sing To cracks in the crossbeams We can sing Very very quietly We can sing We can sing for each other Until then don't tear your hair out I won't tear it out if you don't When I die I'm leaving you my feet When you die You can stand up for me Make a lie and all they can do is put me in your hair I'll be happy there Oh oh Oh oh Oh oh Oh, behold When my parapet has fallen out Oh, behold Lift it up off the ground Oh, behold then Oh, behold then We can sing then Oh, behold then |

When you're on your own
Spread out on the map Dead The highway's endless drone Something familiar And how we love the seasons that hide in our stomachs That howl and howl and howl as if Dropped from the great height And I thought the hours that lie in the kitchen They drag him, drag him, drag into black night Dropped from the great height It was strange Constant blue And the same ghost every night I go walking Just to find My own breath my own breath through the path I go walking Just to find My own breath my own breath through the path Dropped from the great height It was strange Constant blue And the same ghost every night It was strange Constant blue And the same ghost every night I go walking Just to find My own breath, my own breath through the path I go walking We are raised up very high We are raised up very high My own breath |

I keep my head uptight
I make my plans at night And I don't sleep I don't sleep I don't sleep 'til it's light Something's flowing, someone buried alive There is an awful sound This haunted town And it will not it will not it will not just be quiet Some ghosts sing. Someone get called to the life Spend boring hours in the office tower In a bus on a bus back home to you and That's fine I'm barely alive It's just a matter of time No one gets out alive And I'm content I'm content I'm content to be quiet It's only six. Someone get called to the life You know our hearts beat time out very slowly You know our hearts beat time They're waiting for something that'll never arrive You know our hearts beat time out very slowly You know our hearts beat time They're waiting for something that'll never arrive I keep my head on tight I make my plans at night And I don't sleep I don't sleep I don't sleep 'til it's light Pulse flowing, someone buried alive And if that head opens we built a life of work Where we're chain chain chain chain, chained to the life But that's fine, our blood is alive You know our hearts beat time out very slowly You know our hearts beat time They're waiting for something that'll never arrive |

I got a hand
So I got a fist So I got a plan It's the best that I can do Now we say, it's in God's hands But God doesn't always have the best goddamn plans, does he? I ain't quite the beauty Who holds up two guns and shoots at the pretty, pretty view And, God, I keep thinking things - hunters and kings To block out the view I gotta get a new bell to ring A new song to sing A steady hand to ring A readiness of things A new plan to bring to the people People I can trick 'em into thinking anything Ya-ho And you rust it just right in the light, it's gold, it's golden Ya-ho I got watering holes in my hands I'm a digger of holes in the land of holes Ya-ho It's the easiest way Ya-oh It's the easiest way Ya-ho It's the easiest way Ya-ho It's the easiest way Hey So I go La la la la la la La la la la la la La la la la la la I got water and I got holes, oh La la la la la la Sons and daughters of hungry ghosts, oh La la la la la la I got water and I got holes, oh La la la la la la The sons and daughters of hungry ghosts, oh, go, go La la la la la la I got water and I got holes, oh La la la la la la Sons and daughters of hungry ghosts, oh, go, go I got a hand (La la la la la la) So I got a fist So I got a plan, it's the best I can do Say, is it in God's hands? (La la la la la la) But God doesn't always have the best goddamn plans, does he? Say, la la la la la la I can't believe in the guns, I can't believe in the view I sing, say, say (La la la la la la) I can't believe in those hunters and kings Ya-oh Say, la la la la la la I got a new plan to bring I got a new song to sing, it goes La la la la la la I got a new plan to bring and you know Ya-ho It's the easiest way (La la la la la la) Ya-ho It's the easiest way (La la la la la la) Ya-ho It's the easiest way (La la la la la la) Ya-ho It's the easiest way (La la la la la la) Hey So I go |

Give me your eyes, I need sunshine
Give me your eyes, I need sunshine Your blood, your bones, your voice, and your ghost We've both been very brave Walk around with both legs Fight the scary day We both pulled the tricks out of our sleeves, but I'll believe in anything and you'll believe in anything Said I'll believe in anything and you'll believe in anything If I could get the fire out from the wire I'd share a life and you'd share a life If I could take the fire out from the wire I'd share a life and you'd share a life If I could take the fire out from the wire I'd take you where nobody knows you and Nobody gives a damn I said nobody knows you and Nobody gives a damn And I could take another hit for you And I could take away your trips from you And I could take away the salt from your eyes Take away what's been assaulting you And I could give you my apologies By handing over all the olive trees And I could take away your shaky knees And I could give you all the olive trees And look at the trees and look at my face and look at a place far away from here So give me your eyes, I need sunshine Give me your eyes, I need sunshine Your blood, your bones, your voice, and your ghost We've both been very brave Walk around with both legs Fight the scary day We both pulled the tricks right out of our sleeves But I'll believe in anything and you'll believe in anything If I could take the fire out from the wire I'd share a life and you'd share a life If I could take the fire out from the wire I'd share a life and you'd share a life If I could take the fire out from the wire I'd take you where nobody knows you and Nobody gives a damn I said nobody knows you And nobody gives a damn I said nobody knows you And nobody gives a damn either way About your blood, your bones, your voice, and your ghost Because nobody knows you And nobody gives a damn either way You know I'll believe in anything and you'll believe in anything Because nobody knows you And nobody gives a damn either way |

I heard all your reasons
I heard all your plans I have seen the seasons Clutched up in your hands You're the one eyed feather You're the lion's mane Swear you've heard the weather Calling out your name There'll be no more winters There'll be no more spring and There'll be no more dinner bells Left for you to ring There'll be no more dinner bells Dinner bells to ring Maestro learns the music Musicians learn to dance There'll be no more trumpets There'll be no more flutes No more clapping hands I've heard all your reasons I've heard all your plans I heard of your treasons and I've heard all your pleas And i've made friends with the hang man So there'll be no more winter There'll be no more spring and There'll be no more dinner bells Left for you to ring There'll be no more dinner bells Dinner bells to ring There'll be no more dinner bells Dinner bells to ring There'll be no more dinner bells Dinner bells to ring |

Sometimes they rock and roll
Sometimes they stay at home and it's just fine This heart's on fire This heart's on fire This heart's on fire This heart's on fire I am my mother's hen and left the body in the bed all day We don't know what to do This heart's on fire This heart's on fire This heart's on fire This heart's on fire A thousand made-up loves What makes the sound of surf once you know you're alive? This heart's on fire This heart's on fire This heart's on fire This heart's on fire It's getting better all the time It's getting better all the time This heart's on fire This heart's on fire This heart's on fire This heart's on fire And you're my favourite thing tell it everywhere I go I don't know what to do This heart's on fire This heart's on fire This heart's on fire This heart's on fire Sometimes they rock and roll I'd rather stay at home in real life This heart's on fire This heart's on fire This heart's on fire This heart's on fire It's getting better all the time It's getting better all the time It's getting better all the time It's getting better all the time This heart's on fire This heart's on fire This heart's on fire This heart's on fire This heart's on fire This heart's on fire This heart's on fire This heart's on fire |
