Brave face, and English illusion
Stiff lips soft and creamy inside I'm hip to your pain and confusion You can't tell how much suffering On a face that's always smiling I swore I would always be with you But now I'm afraid of your tears I fear that you might take me with you You can't tell how much suffering On a face that's always smiling I've grinned my way through beatings I've smiled my way through school But underneath this grinning Is the sadness of the fool No longer know my feelings Been fooling for too long Borne of desperation in an effort to look strong Look strong, look strong Hey there monkey face you look so strong That joke could crack you with laughter Release from the edge of despair Success is the god that I'm after In jokes, I'm a millionaire You can't tell how much suffering On a face that's always smiling |

Withdrawn, muscles all tense
Nothing flows for the self-obsessed Feel all washed up Restless, can't sit still A mental state, or a physical ill Toxic, bones all cracked Step on a bus, get a panic attack Of that you took me so high Now getting out of bed is enough to make me cry Saps all my energy That's how it used to be You came just in time Feel all washed up Need a wash up Need a wash Restless, muscles all ache So tense, watch me shiver as you shake Not a dance but a scream by the body at the stake Pierces my heart, something's gonna break Amazed when you cannot deny Going out of bed is enough to make you cry That's how it used to be before you came by Screwed up at school Hate bad food Too many T.V. views live in you (My friend) Feel all washed up (Need a wash) Much to take, I'm overcome So wash me up with a loving song |

Why so close
Big boys in black hats Cowboys with white guns White guns shoot blue white Blue white baptism No buffaloes No Indians No more buffaloes Red sky is falling Blue blood no stalling White heat will strip you No time to run far (refrain 1) Ivan's built(got) a wall of lead 'round his house Nobody can get in or out Running out of food for ammunition Frightened of the darkness Sending out scouts Why hang the fire so close Why so close (refrain 2) Wayne's got a wall that's much more subtle Wore headphones since he was born Watches Ivan through dark glasses Hand('s) on his gun waiting for the storm One false move and we all fall down No funeral games, no such fun Here's your ticket to the party That's what you get for playing with a gun Six-gun so close (refrain 1) (refrain 2) Why stand the fire so close Why? |

My mirrors laughing at me, says boy are you getting old
There's so much junk in your life what you've got you don't even know Don't take a phone company to tell you life's pay as you go I wonder how much of life is set up in utero Under the waterfall Under the waterfall Under the waterfall It's cool and cold and clear Watching too much TV I'm an actor in a puppet show There's so much stuff in my life no room for me to grow One day I'm going to break from my life due south down to Mexico I'm going to burn down my house it's the only way to let it go Under the waterfall Under the waterfall Under the waterfall it's cool and cold and clear Run your hands ‘cross the flanks of a horse Feel the pulse of blood the heat and the force It's an antidote to a life spent on the beat The beat of concrete The beat of machines Of mobile phones and plasma screens How much junk in my life do I really need Under the waterfall Under the waterfall Under the waterfall it's cool and cold and clear I'm so cynical Where I need to play I'm so cynical find another way I'm so cynical I can't change One drop is lonely Two drops ok Three drops can make a spray. Four drops get carried away D I V E Under the waterfall Under the waterfall Under the waterfall It's cool and cold and clear Under the waterfall Under the waterfall Under the waterfall It's cool and cold and clear |

The view from here's breathtaking
My visions all surrounding. The humans look like insects. There is only one way down. But it's cold and lonely in this stratosphere Gliding through the darkness. Where is my craft leading to Am I damned or blessed? Don't let go on top of the world. Don't let go on top of the world. Will my good friends desert me Or will they prove themselves? Are my demands all greedy Or are they what I need? If I will not be faithful I must accept betrayal. When your turn comes to leave me Will my free ways have failed? Don't let go on top of the world. Don't let go on top of the world. I'll meet you inside this hollow world I'll meet you inside Hollow world, hollow world It's a long way down It's a long way down And I'm so cold |

I hold a vision that all visions are impure The rising of the serpent The apple and the fall. Don't trust the angels .May be devils in disguise Don't trust the preacher. All his words don't make him wise There are no promises that anyone can keep The future's full of secrets The past can never keep Yes I know, I'm falling down This incline is far too steep Tell when I hit the ground You're too high for me to reach We can weather unchartered oceans Though the map reads,"; lost at sea "; When we breakthrough or get broken Will you stand here close to me Close to me You are the universe and god knows I'm the fool I've journeyed round the outer worlds to return home to you I've found a lover knows me better than myself Sees through all my subtle lies and touches me to health We can weather unchartered oceans Though the map reads lost at sea When we breakthrough or get broken Will you stand here close to me Close to me Here come the choices It's consume or be consumed Jump if you feel crazy And jump if you're a fool |

He said I must be dreaming But I thought I heard the sound The sound that lovers make As they drop down from the window Quiet as cats, across the courtyard Moving from shadow to shadow Past the guards to the forest So quiet in her still reflection Drawing them down, drawing them down to the lake To the centre of her attention Steal the moon tonight Before the morning Steal the moon tonight I just love a good mystery And on the West Bank a boat is being pulled Across the sands they move so softly Slip into water Oars dip, don't break the moon's reflection And drift like a cloud To the centre Beneath her cool attention Still water Still water Steal the moon tonight Before the morning Steal the moon tonight I want to drown in your moon dream I've seen you rising from shore to shore I want to drown in your moon dream I've seen you rising Steal the moon tonight Shine Shine Shine |

So I'm on my own
Far from my broken home And it costs Feels like ten below Pack me off to school Innocence and trust are all lost Where did my childhood go? Calling from the pay phone Trying not to cry Feeling I am dying Telling you I'm fine You tell me it's the making of me That's a fucking lie When's the holidays? Holidays Holidays I'm at the bottom of my bed Headphones on my head John Peel show Feels like ten below The sky's a dull gun metal Where did the sun go? And it rains, and rains Feels like ten below Turning on the weaker ones when we were bored I used to have feelings but all I feel's a Hole is where the heart is And the organ praise the lord When's the holidays? Holidays Holidays He's at war He's at war With himself, at the world He's at war He will strike first to anticipate He's at war Don't know how to relate Feels like a cold war spy If I'm caught Take the easy way out |

It read 'just do the best you can' This world's not how I planned You're on your own No one can hear you They're just talking all the time There's the world and you're outside Your home's hard to find Your home's hard to find Worn down by strangers All you need's a friend You've been worn down by strangers This is not the end Guess it's hard to settle down When love's been spread all around the town I'm no stranger to this room My highs just serve to bring me down I hope to change now From a sorry state of mind. I had hoped for heart to heart My heart's hard to find My heart's hard to find Worn down by strangers All you need's a friend You've been worn down by strangers This is not the end (This is not the end) Worn down by strangers All you need's a friend You've been worn down by strangers All you need's a friend By strangers by strangers by strangers (This is not the end) (this is not the end) This is the end. |

Falling, falling into you, Falling, no parachute, You lost all self-control, We don't know, Which way you might go, I found a map you left, No use, Can't tell east from west. Heading out on this mercy trail, You look so strong, Feel so frail, Need a friend in this barren land, All your approaches have failed, Hope you come through. Falling, falling into you, Falling, no parachute, Are you receiving me, Read my lips, A foreign language, I'm not deceiving you, Take my hand, It's a bridge. Heading out on this mercy trail, You look so strong, Feel so frail, See the world through a preachers eyes, Now all of your preaching has failed, Hope you come through |

Swept away in a raging flood I... I'm still alive I believe God is testing me, But I can't take what the Lord decrees I... I'm still alive On a Monday life was swell, By Wednesday I'm in Hell But I'm still alive Bankers came to move me on So strapped for cash, I had to sell this song I... I'm still alive Doctor told me I've a terrible disease The dog's run off and the cat's got fleas I...

There's a storm outside, and the gap between crack and thunder
Crack and thunder, is closing in, is closing in The rain floods gutters, and makes a great sound on the concrete On a flat roof, there's a boy leaning against the wall of rain Aerial held high, calling "come on thunder, come on thunder" Sometimes, when I look deep in your eyes, I swear I can see your soul Sometimes, when I look deep in your eyes, I swear I can see your soul It's a monsoon, and the rain lifts lids off cars Spinning buses like toys, stripping them to chrome Across the bay, the waves are turning into something else Picking up fishing boats and spewing them on the shore The boy is hit, lit up against the sky, like a sign, like a neon sign And he crumples, drops into the gutter, legs twitching The flood swells his clothes and delivers him on, delivers him on Sometimes, when I look deep in your eyes, I swear I can see your soul Sometimes, when I look deep in your eyes, I swear I can see your soul There's four new colors in the rainbow An old man's taking polaroids But all he captures is endless rain, endless rain He says listen, takes my head and puts my ear to his And I swear I can hear the sea Somtimes, when I look in your eyes I can see your soul (I can touch your soul ) (I can reach your soul) Sometimes |

There are so many colourful rays
How are you going to choose one Bright lights look all right from here But seduction has to be wrong (refrain) So many ways I don't know which path you're taking, if it's bent or straight All I know is I've found something that will take me home again So many ways If you keep your wits about you, search with an open heart You'll be sure to find your answers, penetrate the scream in the ??? So many ways Lost and if you are looking for foot's path Floating free in space There are all these lights coming out the dark Do they lead to the same place So many ways |

An earwig crawled into my ear
Made a meal of the wax and hairs Phoned friends, had an insect party But all I could hear was the bass drum drum All I could hear was the bass drum drum Now if you put your ear close you'll be able to hear Not the sea shore noise of the shore sea shell The clatter of plates And the bronze of the bell Going ding dong, ding dong, ding dong dong Going out of my mind as they hollow my head I'm floating in the air, but my body's in bed The more they eat, the more I see What is not, but just could be You can hear them laughing in my head You can hear them laughing in my head Ha ha ha ha ha Now they've eaten my memory, I can't recall How the world used to be before So a vision is the same as what is real Depends upon the lighting, and how I feel Ding dong, drum drum, ha ha ha ha ha And then the music stopped The musician went away They'd eaten all my brain The red and the gray They all stack at home Dug a tongue through my nose Where my brain used to be Now there's only a hole |

My house is always open Why shield myself with Quills and feints and lies I can put on quite a show But inside I'm broken Porcupine Porcupine Here it comes again Please don't stop You'll get past my defenses My body armour's plated over time I got away with it once But I soon became addicted Porcupine Porcupine At the edge of the world Leave my things by the door I surrender control Diving into the fall Here it comes again Here it comes again Here it comes again On my back's the weight Of my offenses You're a skunk and I'm a porcupine Our weaponary's evolved From the heightened senses Porcupine Porcupine At the edge of the world Leave my things by the door I surrender control Diving into the fall Here it comes again Here it comes again Here it comes again |

from James - Pleased To Meet You / International Version (2001)
Scared to be alone Frightened of the dark Everything's too much For a boy out of touch with his feelings I must be to blame I must be at fault I believe I'm never good enough To shine a light that lingers I have witnessed starbursts in your coal black eyes I am what I try to deny I have seen the serpent coiling set to strike And love is the usual disguise Pleased to meet you Where you from And what's your name? Never came alive Never cut the cord Nothing is too much for a boy out of touch With his feelings Worshipping the moonshine Skinning up the grapevine I don't have a plan where I'm going I just follow my fingers I will be the burning man To grace these times I am what I try to deny I reflect the same eyes looking back at me And love is the only reply Pleased to meet you Where you from and what's your name We're more than enough Dead Ringers Pleased to meet you Where you from And what's your name ? What's your name ? |

[Music depresses me]
Help's on it's way, I'm lost in space No protection Please come and rescue me I've got no friends, an orphan Who had faith, who betrayed Took only a kiss to give me away Who had faith, who betrayed Took only a kiss To blow you away All in my head I'll play dead, if you want me to if you want me all in my head i'll play dead, if you want me to if you want me Who had faith, who betrayed Took only a kiss to give me away Who had faith, who betrayed Took only a kiss to blow you away All in my head I'll play dead, if you want me to if you want me all in my head i'll play dead, if you want me to if you want me |

You're a weapon of devotion Keep the faithful until you are teamed Yo're a lover of attention Found a way to pawn your soul This position may be fetching But the world moves on and leaves you far behind I hear you I hear you Wispering such gorgeous stories I see you I see you Trying to break free You liar You liar You can live the dreams your spinning You liar Love to be decieved You're falling You're falling Falling from your God like distance You're fashion, just fashion Fashion doesn't keep You're sour So sour All this hope and trust is misplaced You're sour And now you are alone Walking on fire Feel the way the world is inclining Walking on fire Pay to decieve Walking on fire Now the world will keep it's distance Walking on fire you rather than me Walking on fire My son says Dear father, what did you do when the world turned over Keep spinning Keep spinning, send us off to sleep All your words are jsut dust and moonshine You liar Love to be decieved Walking on fire Found a house away from humans Walking on fire Pay to decieve Walking on fire Now the world will keep it's distance Walking on fire You rather than me |

Stray cats with fish heads
Feeding their litters Feral kids fight Over rats tailed from gutters Bookie mouth brokers Rotten fruit sellers Pickpockets ghost through the crowd He climbs onto boxes By market stall traders Toothless and grey haired Thousand yard stare He had a vision Which broke the receiver Receiving transmission Surface to air Either way. I'm in awe of you Either way. We'll survive. We'll survive Conjuring devils, Angels and demons Only the children see shape to his tone Laughing and crying His song fell upon us We buried his treasure along with the bones Arms held aloft A Y to the sky Innocent witness He testified Drained of his purpose He falls off the quayside Absorbed by the ocean Rolled by the tide Either way. I'm in awe of you. Either way. We'll survive. Either way. I'm in awe of you. Either way. We'll survive. We'll survive. Under the power lines Which crackle and sparkle Under the freeway Now mostly rubble The hungry still gather To fill up with stories Of monsters and heroes and men Under the stars Which prick us and call us Connect us to hope That perfection's within is Here on the ground We're reckless and hopeless Damned by the slip of a pen Rambling poets Manic with vision We are the drivers yet we feel driven Moths in the moonlight Fooled by a flashlight Caught in a jam jar Gasping for air Rambling poets Manic with vision We are the drivers yet we feel driven Moths in the moonlight Fooled by a flashlight Caught in a jam jar Gasping for air Either way. I'm in awe of you. Either way. We'll survive. We'll survive |

Stand at the curbside and watch the world go by
In this town no one looks you in the eye Where is the place not driven on by time? Where's the city of dreams, a city made of light? Where people laugh more than cry Leave their doors open Fall in love everyday Brave hearts get broken This city aims to love regardless of the bruise We love and marry any sex or race we choose Make for this city Make for this city On the underground, we all look so worn down On the circle line forever going 'round We love our children, not school down, open minds We learn that happiness is the aim of life Make for this city Within our minds Make for this city City of light within our minds Where's the connection to the heart of living? Where's the connection to life? The life we are living is unforgiving Less like a flower than a knife Where's the connection to heart living? Where's the flower of life? We aren't defined by our work and what we own If you can find your way here, you've made it home We love and marry any sex or race we choose There's no one here who use their gods to exclude Make for this city Make for this city Make for this city Make for this city Make for this city Make for this city |

Since your mother cast her spell Every kiss has left a bruise You've been reading too much meaning from existence Now your head is used and sore And the forecast is for more Memories falling, like falling rain Falling rain Every view they hold on you's A piano, out of tune You're an angel You're a demon You're just human Now your world has turned to trash Broken windows on the past Take that child and teach him senseless Damage the dream, damage the dream I feel nothing, I feel nothing at all I feel nothing at all In this gloomy, haunted place All the feelings are of shame All the windows have been broken by the children So the wind screams up the stairs Slams doors and rattles chairs I wish we weren't conceived in violence Damage the dream, damage the dream The magic is broken The house is in ruins Your memory's one-sided The side that you're choosing feels nothing Feels nothing at all We feel nothing at all |

I pretend that I know where I'm going
I pretend I know where I came from Or the fear will engulf me completely I chose to waltz this bridge of sighs Act my age in an age of indifference I'm as big as I can dream I forget in the truth of my nature I forget to forgive, so I look away Look away Look away Look away Look away Look away Look away I can't stop, so I carry on I don't trust God is on my side Indirect as the gaze of a geisha I'm still that lost and lonely child Look away Look away Look away Look away Look away Look away All mirrors shattered Poor plastic clown All that really matters You weren't in the building when the walls came crashing down All mirrors shattered Poor plastic clown All that really matters You weren't in the building when the walls came crashing down All mirrors shattered Poor plastic clown All that really matters |
