(Compromise and confusion steal us away)
When they say ignorance is bliss It makes it sound too good to miss How about that? And the problem with success is you become what you detest How about that? How about that? So who to believe and who do you trust Well, it might as well be you 'Cos it seem that no-one else has got a clue Get it wrong get it right You can try as hard as you like But there's no such thing in the world as the right decision (Compromise and confusion steal us away) Now it's okay for you to smoke Just as long as it's not dope How about that? Two wrongs don't make a right But there's a Gulf where they just might How about that? Suspended my trust Reserved my belief And did all I could do In the hope that I might pick up any clues Get it wrong get it right You can try as hard as you like But there's no such thing in the world as the right decision Compromise and confusion steal us away When to serve and protect Means we may just break your neck How about that? For every question why There's an answer on the sly That few will look in the eye Get it wrong get it right You can try as hard as you like But there's no such thing in the world as the right decision (Compromise and confusion steal us away) |

Yes you know how some things seem like God's gift
Easy come and easy go They disappear before you know it And in the light of this new day dawning We see things a different way With such a price on what we say But I'm so pleased for you I'm so pleased You have all the answers Thanks a million for your thoughts on culture Please feel free to speak your mind Though people say it turns you blind And did you know there's a God here with you He knows what is right or wrong 'Cause he's read the book for far too long But I'm so pleased for you... What do you know about good and evil? So here's a thought while we burn our bridges If the pen's not worth the sword Then pass the gun and praise the Lord But I'm so pleased for you... |

The things you want to change will usually stay that way The promises you break outweigh the ones you keep The sky I'm told is blue is looking very grey Nothing's going to seem the way it seems to you It never turns out quite the way you want it to Paint upon the wall for the hundredth time But what you try to hide will come shining though But what you try to hide will come shining though There's so much you would do if you just had the time Like try to write a song but in never rhymes (only sometimes) You'd love to change the system but it works too well for you If you didn't have to patience you could turn to crime There's something that you fell that you can't explain That makes you feel lost when it starts to rain It bothers you the most when you are on your own It whispers your intentions will all be in vain The month you hate the most is always february |

A case of the face in the place that doesn't fit Which way to turn, why don't you just stop it I hope my feet stay on the ground (Yeow stop it now) (??) With nothing around to hold me, to hold me (Now!) to hold me Now something just went wrong inside of my head All the things that I've done and I've said Disappear 'cause these things don't keep When you wake one day and find you won't go back to sleep So don't tell me what is right and what is wrong It's no good, I've stood listening for too long You don't understand what it means, what it's about You can pay another day so shut up and drink up and get out All of the things I say now (now!) Sound to me like someone wrote them for me Cheap greeting cards, Hollywood films Lent to me a language no-one really uses Or do they? Do they? Do they?

The deaf, the dumb, the stupid and blind Crushing the words to the people who doubt With the weight of the hard of the fast Coming out Days that seem clear to me are the days That you're near to me Everything is fine And you know the sun will always shine Two and two always equals four And life is simple when you're sure The world's on someone else's shoulders Leave it there 'til it gets colder Two and two always equals four Did you never hope for something more? Black and white and wrong and right Real and real and how do you feel? The louder you shout the better you're heard The meek shall inherit the earth That's absurd! The bigger they come, the harder they fall 'Til you're big enough you don't fall at all Help, save, change me You can rearrange me But never let me say I know For certain Everything is fine And you know the sun will always shine Two and two always equals four And life is simple when you're sure The world's on someone else's shoulders Leave it there 'til it gets colder Two and two always equals four Did you never hope for something more? |

Can't feel my head, my heart
Everything aches and I can't cure it Imagine being afraid to think Sink into to the ground, endure it I'm mad enough to kill and thrilled I'm moved enough to cry Too much, too much Let all in Don't let it all pass you by Stripped Stripped, aoh Stripped, oh Everyone is hungry Everyone needs to know At the end of it all you've got to get what you want Or you'll have nothing else to show Stripped, oh Stripped, oh Everyone is hungry Everyone needs to know Everyone is hungry |

If the sun shines today
I think I'll stay here anyway And if the world makes demands of me Then I'll wait and see It's at times like these I do what I please (Do what I please) And I'm pleased to say It's like I've always wanted to feel this way Blissed, blissed When I'm going somewhere, going nowhere Blissed, blissed When I'm going nowhere, going somewhere No-one ever else could feel like this I couldn't settle for less than this Let the feel the air wash over me Let the ground sink beneath my feet And I expect so much more from today Than just a time between tomorrow and yesterday Blissed, blissed When I'm going nowhere, going somewhere Blissed, blissed When I'm going somewhere, going nowhere There'll be a time when all my dreams come to and end When I'll run out of postcards for you all to send But I'll keep with me All the things I feel and see Blissed, blissed When I'm going somewhere, going nowhere Blissed, blissed When I'm going nowhere, going somewhere |

Across the world the message flies
Information, truth and lies It's all yours and it's all mine You just have to find the time We're all the same, we share the blame, we play the games If it's yes or no the decision is easy, it's easy Zeroes and ones will take us there. This time the revolution will be computerised You'll know it as you do it In real time before your eyes Slip between realities There's more to this than anything that you or I can see The world is mine the world is yours and here's the cause Zeroes and ones will take us there. I've stared into the heart of it all Seen the pictures on the wall The beat of a heart The oceans part and the patterns in my mind This time, we've split the world once more There's those that have and that don't in information wars Wer'e not alone 'cos all is known and it's everywhere, it's everywhere Zeroes and ones will take us there. |

Oh we had some magic and used it all
There's a tinge of regret but not what you'd call real sorrow Didn't think much, if at all Whatever the cost we'll pay it all tomorrow But I'd rather be damned than let you go And I'd rather be damned 'cos I know You've gotta get a good thing when you see it We let our lives slip, just for a while It took all we had but it made you smile too And I'd rather be damned than let you go And I'd rather be damned 'cos I know You've gotta get a good thing when you see it But I'd rather be damned than let you go And I'd rather be damned 'cos I know You've gotta get a good thing when you see it |

If I hold you to the light
Should I see right through you? If I question what you are will it bring me any closer to you? From Love to War What we aim for is to keep the illusion You can take your conscience for a lover And satisfied there is no other You can dream Any doubts we had Had better not show What good would they do us Leaving us nowhere to go? From Love to War What we aim for is to keep the illusion Taking a stand for the benefit of man And angry with pride because God is on our side I could do with some sleep 'Cos the rubbish I talk is getting deep And if I don't believe in you Then there's nothing I can do But throw myself at the walls And love no-one at all From Love to War What we aim for is to keep the illusion You can take your conscience for a lover And satisfied there is no other You can dream |

There is a line between good and evil
That separates light from dark But a colour now spells our end And everywhere I see its mark, it's Yellow Brown In the city air, in all our seas You can see every other colour bleed into Yellow Brown There is no time to spend Concerned that this is just a trend To lay the blame everywhere When it's yours that is the lion's share of Yellow Brown And I won't do 'Cos you won't do 'Cos we know there's nothing they will do about Yellow Brown There's nothing to save us from ourselves But the world keeps turning The world keeps turning |

Compromise and confusion tears away . . .
Well they say ignorance is bliss Unless something is amiss How Ubout that? And the problem with success Is you become what you detest How Ubout that? How Ubout that? So who do you believe And who do you trust Well it may as well be you Cause it seems That no one else has got a clue Get it wrong get it right You can try as hard as you like But thereUs no such thing In the world as the right decision ItUs okay to get a smile Just as long as itUs not dumb How Ubout that? And two wrongs donUt make a right But thereUs a conflict they just might How Ubout that? How Ubout that? Suspend your trust Reserve our belief And did all I could do In the hope that I might pick up any clue Get it wrong get it right You can try it as hard as you might But thereUs no such thing In the world as the right decision ItUs our soul that we protect [?] Because we may just break our neck How Ubout that? And for every question why ThereUs a answer on the sly If you will look in the eye . . . [?] Get it wrong get it right You can try as hard as you like But thereUs no such thing In the world as the right decision Get it wrong get it right You can try as hard as you like But thereUs no such thing In the world as the right decision |

You came at the right time, filled the right space
And ever since then I've never seen your true face You and me, what do we know of each other? You're a cartoon, the butt of bad jokes Every picture of you seems out of focus You're evil personified come to avenge Our perfect enemy out for revenge You and me, what do we know of each other? I, I, I don't believe it I don't believe it I, I, I don't believe it There's nothing here that seems to fit There no doubt what you did was wrong You'll get no excuse in this song But an eye for an eye makes no sense to me The state of us now is this how it'll always be? You and me, what do we know of each other? I, I, I don't believe it I don't believe it I, I, I don't believe it There's nothing here that seems to fit Who does it serve To believe every word you heard To hear without listening Look without seeing You came at the right time, filled the right space And ever since then I've never seen your true face You and me, what do we know of each other? I, I, I don't believe it I don't believe it I, I, I don't believe it There's nothing here that seems to fit |

I'm trapped in words
Held hostage by my friends Tripped up by meaning Taking a road just to get to it's end Tongue tied It's killing me I want to see things for the first time Show you things that are brighter, darker, sharper, softer But I'm struck dumb and dead Thoughts like paper over fire There's a hole in my world That makes me talk like a liar Over there I see a fist fight A woman in a care full of toys smokes a cigarette Conversations twist and turn I get the feeling I am learning more than ever before This is the first time Tongue tied It's killing me |

In my life there's a right time and a right place
There is order There is method well, you know where There is routine, nothing spare Catch the light in a different way And all the bullshit falls away and I Stare, into a heart of darkness There is no good, no evil, only me There is no love, not anymore I don't think there ever was As for me, I feel no hate I may believe in luck But not in fate Stare, into a heart of darkness There is no good, no evil, only me Stare, into a heart of darkness There is no good, no evil, only me On the wall there is a red light When I close my eyes I see spirals. |

I played with the fire
Stared at the light, screamed at the pain Pushed to the centre Took no advice, waited in vain I questioned it too Thought about me, thought about you The corruption between us The power and lies, dreams come true I don't know if I care I can't feel, I can't speak, I can't think Caught in an idiot stare I won't let it go Hold it to me, it's mine to the end A shadow that hugs me My black dog, my enemy friend I don't know if I care I can't feel, I can't speak, I can't think Caught in an idiot stare |

Mary hangs from the rearview mirror
On the dash her son's come off worse We've got a carload of faith here And we're saved from the world by some verse Nothing I can do or say Will ever move people this way I want it, if it moves mountains I want it, move mountains for me You can twist and turn and bend it 'Til its the cruellest shape in the world But i still want it The last free thing in the world |

This is the real world made wrong made right
Or maybe just made You waste my time with explanations So all the big colors fade So you want to be happy Don't you know happy is never enough Looking for big answers getting nowhere But then you're swimming in the shallow end You take these broken bones I'll tell you something, these things don't mend So you want to be happy Don't you know happy is never enough I'm on the wrong train i can tell 'Cause I'm the only one who thinks so Hard on the heels of getting somewhere But there are things that we don't know So you want to be happy Don't you know happy is never enough |

I don't mind if I never ever meet you
I love you just the way you seem And I don't mind all the things they say about you Jealous words won't spoil this dream (The real world, it comes to get you) I believe in the unknown So I'm sure you won't disappoint me These whole truths fall on deaf ears So I know you won't disappoint me SMile, smile, smile, while the glory days are here Where's the hurry, worry all next year And don't mind me 'cause I'm really only looking It may seem strange, but that's all I want to do I believe in the unknown... The real world it comes to get you There is no way it will forget you I don't mind if I never ever meet you I love you just the way you seem I believe in the unknown... |

Yes you know how some things seem like God's gift
Easy come and easy go They disappear before you know it And in the light of this new day dawning We see things a different way With such a price on what we say But I'm so pleased for you I'm so pleased You have all the answers Thanks a million for your thoughts on culture Please feel free to speak your mind Though people say it turns you blind And did you know there's a God here with you He knows what is right or wrong 'Cause he's read the book for far too long But I'm so pleased for you... What do you know about good and evil? So here's a thought while we burn our bridges If the pen's not worth the sword Then pass the gun and praise the Lord But I'm so pleased for you... |

How time lfies when you're biting your lip 'til it hurts
going over and over the same old things in your mind, oh my Hours gone by and hours yet to go Just what I'm waiting for, I don't really know But then there's you You know what's going on You know what's taking place It's only me that's lost in space Spin me around yes, give me more of your lies Give me the gospel according to you And that's fine by me I'm sure that I'm wrong and all is not what it seems But a hundred to one says you Give the same old lines to me But then that's you You know what's going on... In every good story there's always a twist in the tale So there's a note on your door that I really feel sure Will make your face go pale You know what's going on... |
