Some Kind of Magic
03:44
|

There he was before me
Asking where to go
Asked where he was going
He said I don't know
Gave me something I had lost
So long ago
And now
He's gone away
Some kind magic goes
Bye-bye, buh-bye
Bye, buh-bye, buh-bye
Some kind magic goes
Bye-bye, buh-bye
Bye, buh-bye, buh-bye
Searched for a time
Oh how I sailed away
(Sailed away)
Forged for paradise
The one where he would stay
(Where he would stay)
Lost inside a fairytale
From long ago
(Long ago)
And now
He's gone away
Some kind magic goes
Bye-bye, buh-bye
Bye, buh-bye, buh-bye
Some kind magic goes
Bye-bye, buh-bye
Bye, buh-bye, buh-bye

The Way He Sways
04:32

I don't want to know
At all
about your sex life
But let me tell you about mine
They say he's a snake
Though I think he's the charmer
Well I could be wrong
And it all might be karma
Something's in the air
Tonight
I can feel it cut me
Like a knife
He seems so nice
Gives me what I desire
Though it's just too bad
That his touch burns like fire
I'm terrified of
The things he says but
I'm captivated by
The way he sways
The lights are out
And he's moving slow
And he's oh so close
But you feel so low
They say he's a snake
Though I think he's the charmer
Well I could be wrong
And it all might be karma

Glamour and Flash
03:19
|

Tear out the walls
And I'll tear out my eyes
If I look again
At the things I do despise
My face is all wrong
And my hair isn't right
How I wish these problems
Would solve themselves tonight
I dress myself
In the way that I please
But I hide away
So no-one else can see
Didn't think I could
Ever be this mean
Though this proves
I hate everything that's me
It feels worse each day and I
Cannot escape the mind that's in
My head and my hands feel so numb now
I feel so numb now
Sand through my fingers
I lose my thoughts and feelings
Words escape me
And I feel my body reeling
It feels worse each day and I
Cannot escape the mind that's in
My head and my hands feel so numb now
I feel so numb now

Anywhere
03:16
|

I could just be
Anywhere about now
I'd like to be
Anywhere about now
Brisbane or a part of Spain
Don't need to know the country's name
I just have to get out of this place
Oh no
Oh yeah
Looking out of a broken window
Skies are grey
Here to stay
Found the key but there's no doorway
The gates are closed
And no-one knows
I could just be
Anywhere about now
I'd like to be
Anywhere about now
Brisbane or a part of Spain
Don't need to know the country's name
I just have to get out of this place
Oh no
Oh yeah
This town is barren and it's people stopped caring
About their home
About their own
They say that tomorrow's a brand new day
But it seems tomorrow
Is far away
All this terror keeps you unaware
Of what's down the road
I need to know
It is the answer or a big disaster
We'll find out soon
What else can we do
I could just be
Anywhere about now
I'd like to be
Anywhere about now
Brisbane or a part of Spain
Don't need to know the country's name
I just have to get out of this place
Oh no
Oh yeah

Here I am
So high again
Some sixty thousand miles
I can see the fire
From the window
How it's burning down
Crash land
Onto mainland
See the coastline
How it's rising fast
I can see the water
From the rooftops
How the sea turns round
Some lines weren't meant
To be crossed
By the likes of you
Did you see the headlines
Count the years down
That we've got to go
If you never see it coming
Then you'll never see it go
Aimed like a missile
At the things you know
If you never get it going
Then you'll never let it go
And down the line
You'll be responsible
Here I am
So low again
Been walking now
For miles
I have seen oasis
In the distance
But I'm still too far
Some lines weren't meant
To be crossed
By the likes of you
Some lines weren't meant
To be crossed
If you never see it coming
Then you'll never see it go
Aimed like a missile
At the things you know
If you never get it going
Then you'll never let it go
And down the line
You'll be responsible

Screaming in Our Ears
04:01
|
|||
Pouring salt into the wound
Feel it sting the way the
Words would do
Pour the lies into my ears
Cause your body shows your
Tears and fears
Can't take less
But can't take more
Throw it off the table
Open your mouth
Scream some more
Hear how nothing's coming out
Feels like something's hit your chest
Double over and you're
Out of breath
See your vision of the future
Watch as it grows slowly
Darker still
Screaming in our ears some more
Where our voices falter
Moving backwards from the wall
Stumble and then cry
Again

Hold Me
02:45
|
|||
You
You meant the most to me
Over me
You did stand
Now
You are no more than me
Can't you see
This is not love
You
You meant the most to me
Over me
You did stand
Now
You are no more than me
Can't you see
This is not love

I Can Feel the Heat
05:33
|

I can feel the heat
When I am moving to the beat
Gonna dance till I die
Or until tomorrow comes
I can feel the heat
When I am moving to the beat
Gonna dance till I die
Or until tomorrow comes

Summer's Gone
03:16
|

Summer's gone
And winter is coming
But I can feel the sun rays
On my skin
On my skin
Summer's gone
And winter is coming
But I'm out here
Sunbathing
In the pouring rain
Out in the rain
Lock your windows
Lock your doors
Take your warm clothes
Out your drawers
Batten down the hatches
In your soul
Start a fire
Start a flame
Wait for spring to come again
Watch the trees and flowers
Fade away
Summer's gone
And winter is coming
But I can feel the sun rays
On my skin
On my skin
Summer's gone
And winter is coming
But I'm out here
Sunbathing
In the pouring rain
Out in the rain
Mother nature's gone to bed
Days are quick to start and end
My how does December
Come so soon
Snow is laying on the ground
Forests without sight
Or sound
Why does all the life just
Hide away
Summer's gone
And winter is coming
But I can feel the sun rays
On my skin
On my skin
Summer's gone
And winter is coming
But I'm out here
Sunbathing
In the pouring rain
Out in the rain
Today

Will I wake tomorrow
Will I wake today
It may pain me to say it
But angels have to change
If I'm not here morning
Find me where I lay
Tell me was it dark out
Or was it only day
Walked out of the gates of heaven
Down the concrete steps
Out onto the fields of grass
Where mortals played and wept
Where gods and people met
Peter clocks out early
From ushering the line
Souls walk down the paved streets
And high-rises divine
Though the entry sparkles
There's no gold to be found
Plastic are the hinges
And artifice abound
Walked out of the gates of heaven
Down the concrete steps
Out onto the fields of grass
Where mortals played and wept
Where gods and people met
Choir meets on Mondays
News and more at nine
Penance is a dollar
Forgiveness is a dime
Jesus's own tailor
Can't pay the rent on time
And if you want to get in
You'll have to pay the fine
Walked out of the gates of heaven
Down the concrete steps
Out onto the fields of grass
Where mortals played and wept
Where gods and people met

Dinosaurs
05:23

Move like a dinosaur
Here comes the meteor
Blotting out the sun
It won't be long now
I won't be ruining your fun
Driving through the ash
And smoke
Cannot breathe but
Cannot choke
So hear the dinosaurs roar
Feel the way the world gets colder
With all it's greens and blues
Take what you can of all your worldly possessions
And everything in view
Lava spits from the ground
Chaos is all around
Going down to hell
As the trees burn away
I wonder how hard we fell
Driving through the ash
And smoke
Cannot breathe but
Cannot choke
So hear the dinosaurs roar
I've had this feeling for oh so long
Feeling that everything could go wrong
And as I watch it spin round my head
Time has seen fit to prove me right again
I've had this feeling for oh so long
Feeling that everything could go wrong
And as I watch it spin round my head
Time has seen fit to prove me right again
Feel the way the world gets colder
With all it's greens and blues
Take what you can of all your worldly possessions
And everything in view
