Insomniac
I think you ought to know, I think we've lost control dear, Whatever turned you on, You put it up your nose dear, And though the feeling was sublime, I think we're running out of time, 'Cos when you found it, you'd fix it, Then lose it and then you'd go. Will you be long, will you be long dear, Will you be long, i'm waiting, No sleep at all, carry me home, No sleep at all, carry me home, Won't you take me there. I serenade the walls, Young people have it all dear And surely life is a gas, We never had it bad dear Oh was it pointless from the start Or did we cultivate the arts I swim in circles, in puddles, in trouble and then I go Will I be long, will I be long dear, Will I be strong, you're waiting No sleep at all, carry me home, No sleep at all, carry me home, Won't you take me here, I don't feel good inside, I don't feel good inside, My darling don't you cry, home, home. No sleep at all, carry me home, No sleep at all, carry me home, Won't you, won't you home home, won't you take me there, I'm ready home, home, won't you take me there, I'm willing home, home, won't you take me there, I want you home, home, won't you take me there. |

I know the way the west wind blows,
The way temptation grows, The way that fortunes flow. La la la la la. Wired on emotions, They don't understand, But we know better, I know the way the preachers pray, And who the angels save, And where the devil plays. La la la la la. Wired on emotions, They don't understand, But we know better, High from motions and we pave the way, And we know where we want to go, We know better. Four hands making plans, Making signs, conversation, Two minds lost in time, Yours and mine. Wired on emotions, They don't understand, But we know better, High from motions and we pave the way, And we know where we want to go, We know better. |

Sunken sky of silver grey
A shame they took the sun away I could have done with some Today the world's a shade of blue Decidedly because of you Honey I don't know why I've seen the sign, the silhouettes The darker side I know so well I don't know where I've fallen I don't know where I've fallen Only one way to go I won't miss you Magic tales and pony tails And fingernails that should've been cleaned Yesterday - far away The memories swell, the minutes fade Hours pass and decades fail Honey I don't wanna die And life is like unfaithful sand Slipping through this open hand I don't know where I've fallen I don't know where I've fallen Only one way to go I won't miss you I won't miss you I won't miss you |

Bellyache
Impotence, the price of a dark affair, It's more than a bellyache, There's something alive in here. What do I, what do I care now that it's over, What do I care I, what do i care now that it's over. Splinters...shatter my one track mind I lie on a sea of nails and thorns Spitting out the same old line. Oh. what do I, what do I care now that it's over, What do I care I, what do I care now that it's over. Now you shoot me down, Serenade my ears my heart i'm falling falling, Echoing your sound. Winter's breath all fall down, Spin me out and spin me round, Enter darkness enter lies, oh no. What do I, what do I care now that it's over What do I care I what do I care now that it's over Now you shoot me down, serenade my ears my heart I'm falling, falling, echoing your sound. |

Won't someone give her a gun,won't someone, Won't someone give her a gun, won't someone. In a lifetime full of changes, A woman's group is still a second-class convention, Look around who has the power, Am I a big mouth with a fix of paranoia, On your side, on your side, Not here for the ride. Won't someone give her a gun,won't someone, Won't someone give her a gun, won't someone. Oh oh a gun. Half the population, one percent of wealth, Half the population, one percent of wealth, Blame the mother sell the sister, Blame the mother, sell the sister, Oh before I blow you away. Won't someone give her a gun, won't someone, Won't someone give her a gun, won't someone, Won't someone give her a gun, won't someone, Won't someone give her a gun, won't someone. |

Dark Therapy - Echobelly
High above the roof tops Higher than the milky way Slipping through the hour glass Shooting up the desert plain You are one life older than before But you can't stop the chill Now you're falling in slow motion Though the air is still If you close your eyes than I can take you all the way Let me close your eyes and I will take it all the way You are on the outside Hands upon the window sill I am on the inside Carving up the hunters kill If you close your eyes than I can take you all the way Let me close your eyes and I will take it all the way Cruising on a missile Cruising on a desert plain Wading through a minefield Wading through the monsoon rain Surfing on an oilspill Surfing on a perfect wave Porn upon the airwaves Rituals of the mating game * If you close your eyes than I can take you all the way Let me close your eyes and I will take it all the way *repeat |
