Club 8

For you I can be mortar and clay
That shapes me to be what you want to see
And if you would say 'There's no one I need'
Then no one I'll be
I'll be the sound of silence
A quiet wind at sea

A servant I'll be to all of your needs
My fondness of you will pay for your deeds
And if you are weak I'll help you to breathe
I'll carry your load
I will be your waiter
I will wait for you

And you were older than my mother
I even thought you looked like my father
And when you went for my brother
I thought next time has to be ours

For you I can be puzzles and bricks
A nurse at your side when you're feeling sick
Magical scenes, wishes and dreams
Wonderous things
I will make it happen
I will make it yours

And you were older than my mother
I even thought you looked like my father
And when you went for my brother
I thought next time has to be ours

It seems like a bitter place
I want to be where you are
Be mad, get ill, be still
I want to get close to your scars
So take me with you now!
I want to be where you are
You're sad, so ill, you're real
Can I get close to you dear?

A heart can break and still make way
For new loves to be discovered
A heart can break and still remain
We will come back
We will come back again

It seems like a bitter place
Let me get under your skin
Be mad, get ill, be still
And let me feel what you feel
You carry a heavy weight
So let it fall on me
Be mad, be rash, you're trash
And let me see what you see

A heart can break and still make way
For new loves to be discovered
A heart can break and still remain
We will come back
We will come back again

Today I'm feeling so fulfilled
I'm dancing with the mentally ill
They're giving me a black eye
I continue, loving them still
I'm learning every favourite move
I watch them sway through the night
The distance disappears
I start to fade into sight
Sometimes they look lonely
A group that is splitting into parts
But they are still one
No need to re-group or restart

And now I'm happy, I'm happy
I'm happy when I'm
Dancing with the mentally ill
And now I'm happy, I'm happy
I'm happy when I'm
Dancing with the mentally ill
I'm dancing with the mentally ill

Today I'm feeling so fulfilled
I'm dancing with the freaks and the ill
And no one asks why
No one asks how it feels
I'm fading into them as they are fading into me
We're like clouds
The movement goes on
I disappear in the crowd
I thought I had to leave this
I tried to escape for so long
But this is where I am
This is where I still belong

And now I'm happy, I'm happy
I'm happy when I'm
Dancing with the mentally ill
And now I'm happy, I'm happy
I'm happy when I'm
Dancing with the mentally ill
I'm dancing with the mentally ill

So you want to be like me
Live a thousand lives and never a scheme
Let me tell you one thing
It's only a dream

So you wanted to be seen
Wear a thousand faces and always give in
Let me tell you something
It's not what it seems

I think you like me
I like you better
I think you're like me
But only better

And now you're telling everyone
About that inner journey on some kind of ship
And a part of you
That never came back

And you want to be so real
Wear your heart on your sleeve and say how you feel
And we hear what you preach
All is revealed

I think you like me
I like you better
I think you're like me
But only better

If I could fly away I'd still be here today
Even with this time that's killing me

When your friends give up on you
When everyone has heard your story twice
When your family's grown tired of you
And your doctor tells you now you must shape up
Then I'll be there for you again
My pessimistic heart goes out to you

Come to me, embraced by my world
My pessimistic heart, it calls you
Now go, let it lead
Please follow my pessimistic heart

When you're broken, when you're down
When every sentence is ending with a frown
When you've taken all the pills
You could find and still you're feeling ill
I'll be there for you again
My pessimistic heart goes out to you

Come to me, embraced by my world
My pessimistic heart, it calls you
Now go, let it lead
Please follow my pessimistic heart

And when your hope grows thin
It's time to let the fun begin

And when your hope grows thin
It's time to let the fun begin

You say your life's like a movie
Where you know the ending
There's no meaning
I've heard your story many times before
And now I'm feeling sure
Here's so quiet
I'm starting a riot!

Now's the time to wake up
Maybe I can shake us
And maybe you can break up?
'Cause now's the time to shape up
Shape up! Shape up! Shape up!!!

You wore black in school
To explain your mood
And said 'This is darkness'
My friend, that was fine in 1995
Here's my word to you
You're too quiet
I'm starting a riot!

Now's the time to wake up
Maybe I can shake us
And maybe you can break up?
'Cause now's the time to shape up
Shape up! Shape up! Shape up!!!

I'm going far away one day when I am older
Swimming in light and leaning on a steady shoulder
I'm gonna leave my skin, my blood, my bones and my sighs
I'm going to be air, the sky when I die

I'm going to leave this world one day when I am older
Floating in a weightless state, I'm gonna show you
Never again my body will get in my way
Hope is gonna spread the day when I'm dead

I'm waiting for the day when I am so much older
Embraced by light, the awakening heart will show me
Resting in love, somewhere high above
I'm going to stay there oh so long before I'm born

I'm going far away one day when I am older
Swimming in light and leaning on a steady shoulder
I'm gonna leave my skin, my blood, my bones and my sighs
I'm going to be air, the sky when I die

You can have a job if you want to work hard
You can save for years to drive a fancy car
You can have a boy
You can be a girl
You can have a dog

You can leave the town if you want to grow things
You can talk to friends about what's good to eat
You can have a spade
You can be in shade
It's really safe

We're all, we're all, we're all
We are all going to die

You can work with aid if you want to be nice
You can move away and even save a life
They can go to school
You can give them food
It's really cool

You can write a poem, you can be a poet
You can dress in black and think of death
You can work with art
You can have a fan
You can start a band

We're all, we're all, we're all
We are all going to die

One day we'll come to the point
When we know what we've waited for
We'll march through the cities
With eyes in the distance and leave it all

One day we'll lose just to win
And we'll take nothing at all
Noises will die and when we put out the fires
They'll be no more

When all is over
We don't ask who has won
We will look to
Open fields and the Sun

Time is short now
We'll be here
Nowhere left to go
And if you'd miss me when I'm gone
Go when I go
Then maybe we can stay together

Hopes and dreams they won't last long now
We keep it all inside
Answers come when we don't want to hear

Time is short now
Quiet down
Everything is still
If you stay here close to home
Deeper we'll fall
And maybe we can stay together

I got away in the morning light
After staying awake all night
I saw that man standing by the sea
I'm coming back here anyway, uh huh

Well, I want to get good
But I've been doing it wrong
I do what I do, but I don't understand it
I see and I hear but I don't know what you demand
Help me

A gentle wake can save a life
You looked away and opened my eyes
But I remember every word I spoke
It still cuts like a sharpened knife, uh huh

Well, I want to get good
But I've been doing it wrong
I do what I do, but I don't understand it
I see and I hear but I don't know what you demand
Help me

I was sold from the start
Now I'm not at all

When i wake up in the morning
Feel the sun shine on my face
I get up and i`m yawning
There is so much time i can waste

Cause i need this
God feed me with your love
And take me through the day

Fool me into believing
I don`t care if your deceiving me
I wouldn`t want it any other way
`cause then i`d only stay the same

Fool me into believing
I don`t care if your deceiving me

When i wake up in the dawning
And the day is not far away
Find my way in a dark room
That my eyes fail to see through

If god made me
Will jesus save me?
And take me through the day

Fool me into believing
I don`t care if your deceiving me
I wouldn`t want it any other way
`cause then i`d only stay the same

Fool me into believing
I don`t care if your deceiving me
Before i go i need to be
Something more than the skin and bones you see

`cause everywhere i go
Everywhere i`ve been
And everywhere i`m going to
I only go with you

We leave the north cause we're different
　　 Empty houses greet us wherever we go
　　 We turn our heads not to see them
　　 And you turn yours not to see us
　　
　　 We keep our eyes in the distance
　　 Cause desolation greets us wherever we go
　　 We travel roads made for no one
　　 Someone built them
　　 Then they moved om
　　
　　 We'll be gone
　　 If we keep driving we can not go wrong
　　 And we'll be wrong
　　 For the once we promised
　　 We'd never return
　　
　　 We leave the north cause it's different
　　 And we see trees but never anyone who talks
　　 A land of pines not of people
　　 Await a landscape unlike ours
We'll be gone
　　 If we keep driving we can not go wrong
　　 And we'll be wrong
　　 For the once we promised
　　 We'd never return

waiting for the big fall
to take us all
quiet nights and desperate love
we need it all

spring came
rain fell
we ended up nowhere
then june came
sun shone
are we still nowhere?

someone come and take me away
no need to stay
when life itself is making you old
just take my soul

spring came
rain fell
we ended up nowhere
then june came
sun shone
are we still nowhere?

if you want me now
you don't have to try so hard
if you want me now
you don't have to try at all

spring came
rain fell
we ended up nowhere
then june came
sun shone
are we still nowhere?

you were far from me but i could
hear every word you spoke
same words over and over
what do we get for our trouble and pain?

we want someone to long for
we want them here
all we can strive for
we want it now
and when it's here
we don't know what to do next

you would keep an open mind
but even i had to laugh
you sell your story over and over
changing names of places and friends

as you stay put on your side
we don't say you're foolish or proud
lean on us to take you out
or push you wherever feels right

we want someone to long for
we want them here
all we can strive for
we want it now
and when it's here
we don't know what to do next

to be all she wants
i can not do
all the things it would take
to pull it through

she has far too high expectations
she thinks she deserves all she can get
what she wants from me
is something i can not be

chorus
be patient
try harder
i'll help you in my own way
see clearer
be happy
honey it will be alright

let's sit down and talk for a while
or spend some time with friends
and you'll be fine

you never wake up
in the morning
you never go to bed at night
try an ordinary lifestyle
and see what it can do

chorus
be patient
try harder
i'll help you in my own way
see clearer
be happy
honey it will be alright

this is all that i can do
from here you're on your own
and though you won't be here tonight
i hope that we're still friends

chorus
be patient
try harder
i'll help you in my own way
see clearer
be happy
honey it will be alright

now that i'm alone again
after all these years
of having someone to share my thoughts with
simplicity is gone my friend
i thought it'd be a good thing
but now i know
i need someone everyday
something in the same way
still i hope for better days to come
you made up your mind
but maybe i can change it back again
you tell me give it time my friend
you think i just someone
but i need you
just a moment everyday
and i can't see it changing

now that i'm alone again after all these years

She is tiredOf my problems and of meSo for nowI will be on my own*One dayYou will be here to stayAnd maybeSee things my wayOne dayWe'll be olderWe'll look back to seeHow things used to beYou and meArguing about the factThat I believeIn everlasting loveIf you know what I can doThere's a reason for you to be Here*RepeatI don't know whySuddenly we changed intoThe very personsWe said we'd never beI don't know whySuddenly we changed intoThe very personsWe said we'd never be

spending sundays in your apartment
is like a holiday for me
you drink water
i drink wine
that suits me fine
i think it's intentional
the way your clock is an hour behind
i think i'll stay longer
because mondays
always come around

i need lazy days on the sofa
more than love on summerdays
talking fast
saying nothing
it's alright with me
i need a drink
i need some company
i need someone
to share my life with
i think it's intentional
the way your clock is an hour behind
i think i'll stay longer
because mondays
always come around

it was no surprise for me
so i was not that sad
still i wanted to know how
things could go so bad
i'm in a mess now since you left my world
there are things that i can't be without
i'm in a mess now since you left my world
you, i can't be without

i'm not sentimental but
still i have to say
when i think of those distant days
i really wish you would stay
i'm in a mess now since you left my world
there are things that i can't be without
i'm in a mess now since you left my world
you, i can't be without
if i don't look that sad
it's because i knew it
if i seem a little cold
it's because i'm well prepared
if i don't look that sad
it's because i knew it
if i seem a little cold
it's because i'm well prepared

i'm in a mess now since you left my world
there are things that i can't be without
i'm in a mess now since you left my world
you, i can't be without
i'm in a mess now since you left my world
there are things that i can't be without
i'm in a mess now since you left my world
you, i can't be without

i feel alright now
but for how long
what you ask of me
is something i could never be
so for this time
let it be unsaid
so for this time
you ask me gently
can't you be strong
it's the sweetest ache
but far too much for my heart to take
so for this time
karen, you wanted me
but not the way it was supposed to be
karen, you wanted me
but not the way it was supposed to be

A funny thing
I think that you are wrong now
You sober up
And then you say you're sorry

And i think that you're mistaken
When you say that I'll be taken
Away

I want to (want to)
Figure things out
And i need to (need to)
Be alone for a while
For a while

I know this girl
She often thinks I'm a stranger
And when i'm not
There's still no room for me

What will happen when I'm distant
I don't think that she's resistant
To love

I want to (want to)
Figure things out
And I need to (need to)
Be alone for a while
For a while

My mistake
Was to leave you
With an open door
My heart won't break
I've got so much
Time left to kill

though i wish i'll be happy someday
the thoughts can not take all my time
this is not what i was thinking
but it's everything that i need here and now
no it's not what i was thinking
but it's everything that i need here and now

my days are seldom how i plan them
and somehow i'll have to live with that
this is not what i was thinking

there's always this summer rain
falling down on me
in the winter time we stayed outside
until the dawn
all that i have done
i do it over again
i wish that i was special
it's just another copy
of a boy i used to know
yes he's just another copy
with brand new shoes
and the latest haircut

a long walk to the seashore
and watch the sun go down
it doesn't thrill me in the way it did
when i was seventeen
all that i have done
i do it over again
i wish that i was special
it's just another copy
of a boy i used to know
yes he's just another copy
with brand new shoes
and the latest haircut
i know it's not for me
this isn't nearly what i need
i know it's not for me
this isn't nearly what i need
i start to wonder what you see
is it me

i don't want to be
on the loser side
i want the strong one
to be me

at times i felt certain
still i said that i was sorry
but i won't take it
not again

chorus
well i found
i can replace you
yes i found
you're just a habit that i can get rid of

he's asking for favours
i say no
says he's lonely in daytime
well i know

at times i felt certain
still i said that i was sorry
but i won't take it
not again

chorus
well i found
i can replace you
yes i found
you're just a habit that i can get rid of

chorus
well i found
i can replace you
yes i found
you're just a habit that i can get rid of

who will take care of me now
i wonder how
i'll find someone i love
sometimes i
feel so young
i've never known the truthwill i ever find myself again?
will i ever reach my only friend?
i hope, i will see you again
i want to find
the friend i once had
a thousand miles from your smile
i'm thinking of you
i've never felt
so lonely with myself
you don't hear
you don't know
when i cry for you babywill i ever find myself again?
will i ever reach my only friend?
i hope, i will see you again
i want to find
the friend i once had
you're trying to forget me
but i just want
to see you again
the friend i once had
