We passed upon the stair, we spoke of was and when
Although I wasnt there, he said I was his friend Which came as some surprise I spoke into his eyes I thought you died alone, a long long time ago Oh no, not me I never lost control Youre face to face With the man who sold the world I laughed and shook his hand, and made my way back home I searched for form and land, for years and years I roamed I gazed a gazely stare at all the millions here We must have died along, a long long time ago Who knows? not me We never lost control Youre face to face With the man who sold the world Who knows? not me We never lost control Youre face to face With the man who sold the world http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LSnXjE66tvQ |

The dance of the puppets The rusted chains of prison moons Are shattered by the sun. I walk a road, horizons change The tournaments begun. The purple piper plays his tune, The choir softly sing; Three lullabies in an ancient tongue, For the court of the crimson king. The keeper of the city keys Put shutters on the dreams. I wait outside the pilgrims door With insufficient schemes. The black queen chants The funeral march, The cracked brass bells will ring; To summon back the fire witch To the court of the crimson king. The gardener plants an evergreen Whilst trampling on a flower. I chase the wind of a prism ship To taste the sweet and sour. The pattern juggler lifts his hand; The orchestra begin. As slowly turns the grinding wheel In the court of the crimson king. On soft gray mornings widows cry The wise men share a joke; I run to grasp divining signs To satisfy the hoax. The yellow jester does not play But gentle pulls the strings And smiles as the puppets dance In the court of the crimson king. |

Spend all your time waiting
for that second chance for a break that would make it okay there's always some reason to feel not good enough and it's hard at the end of the day I need some distraction oh a beautiful release memory seeps from my veins let me be empty oh and weightless and maybe I'll find some peace tonight In the arms of the angel fly away from here from this dark cold hotel room and the endlessness that you fear you are pulled from the wreckage of your silent reverie you're in the arms of the angel may you find some comfort here So tired of the straight line and everywhere you turn there's vultures and thieves at your back the storm keeps on twisting you keep on building the lies that you make up for all that you lack it don't make no difference escaping one last time it's easier to believe in this sweet madness oh this glorious sadness that brings me to my knees In the arms of the angel fly away from here from this dark cold hotel room and the endlessness that you fear you are pulled from the wreckage of your silent reverie you're in the arms of the angel may you find some comfort here you're in the arms of the angel may you find some comfort here |

Genesis----A Trick Of The Tail
Bored of the life on the city of gold Hed left and let nobody know. Gone were the towers he had known from a child, Alone with the dream of a life He travelled the wide open road, The blinkered arcade, In search of another to share in his life. Nowhere. Everyone looked so strange to him. Theyve got no horns and theyve got no tail They dont even know of our existence. Am I wrong to believe in a city of gold That lies in the deep distance, he cried And wept as they led him away to a cage Beast that can talk, read the sign. The creatures they pushed and they prodded his frame And questioned his story again. But soon they grew bored of their prey Beast that can talk? More like a freak or publicity stunt. Oh No. Theyve got no horns and theyve got no tail They dont even know of our existence. Am I wrong to believe in a city of gold That lies in the deep distance, he cried And broke down the door of the cage and marched on out. He grabbed a creature by the scruff of his neck, pointing out: There, beyond the bounds of you weak imagination Lie the noble towers of my city, bright and gold. Let me take you there, show you a living story Let me show you others such as me Why did I ever leave? Theyve got no horns and theyve got no tail They dont even know of our existence Am I wrong to believe in a city of gold That lies in the deep distance, he cried And wept. And so we set out with the best and his horns And his crazy description of home. After many days journey we came to a peak Where the beast gazed abroad and cried out. We followed his gaze and we thought that maybe we saw A spire of gold - no, a trick of the eye thats all, But the beast was gone and a voice was heard: Theyve got no horns and theyve got no tail They dont even know of our existence Am I wrong to believe in a city of gold That lies in the deep distance Hello friend, welcome home. |

Never really said too much
Afraid it wouldn't be enough Just try to keep my spirits up When there's no point in grieving Doesn't matter anyway Words could never make me stay Words will never take my place When you know I'm leaving Try to leave a light on when I'm gone Something I rely on to get home One I can feel at night A naked light, a fire to keep me warm Try to leave a light on when I'm gone Even in the daylight, shine on And when it's late at night you can look inside You won't feel so alone You know we've been down that road What seems a thousand times before My back to a closing door and my eyes to the seasons That roll out underneath my heels And you don't know how bad it feels To leave the only one that I have ever believed in Try to leave a light on when I'm gone Something I rely on to get home One I can feel at night A naked light, a fire to keep me warm Try to leave a light on when I'm gone Even in the daylight, shine on And when it's late at night you can look inside You won't feel so alone, ooh, yeah Sometimes it feels like we've run out of luck When the signal keeps on breaking up When the wires cross in my brain You'll start my heart again When I come along, yeah Try to leave a light on when I'm gone Something I rely on to get home One I can feel at night A naked light, a fire to keep me warm Try to leave a light on when I'm gone Even in the daylight, shine on And when it's late at night you can look inside You won't feel so alone Try to leave a light on when I'm gone Even in the daylight, shine on And when it's late at night you can look inside You won't feel so alone |

Insurrección
¿Dónde estabas entonces cuando tanto te necesité? Nadie es mejor que nadie pero tu creíste vencer. Si lloré ante tu puerta de nada sirvió. Barras de bar, vertederos de amor... Os enseñé mi trocito peor. Retales de mi vida, Fotos a contraluz. Me siento hoy como un halcón Herido por las flechas de la incertidumbre. Me corto el pelo una y otra vez. Me quiero defender. Dame mi alma y déjame en paz. Quiero intentar no volver a caer. Pequeñas tretas para continuar en la brecha. Me siento hoy como un halcón Llamado a las filas de la insurrección. |

Too alarming now to talk about
Take your pictures down and shake it out Truth or consequence, say it aloud Use that evidence, race it around There goes my hero Watch him as he goes There goes my hero He's ordinary Don't the best of them bleed it out While the rest of them peter out Truth or consequence, say it aloud Use that evidence, race it around There goes my hero Watch him as he goes There goes my hero He's ordinary kudos my hero leaving all the best You know my hero, the one that's on There goes my hero Watch him as he goes There goes my hero He's ordinary There goes my hero Watch him as he goes There goes my hero He's ordinary http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KVKDQgT_b-Y |

It's safe in the city, to love in a doorway
To wrangle some screens from the door And isn't it me, putting pain in a stranger? Like a portrait in flesh, who trails on a leash Will you see that I'm scared and I'm lonely? So I'll break up my room, and yawn and I Run to the centre of things Where the knowing one says [CHORUS] Boys, boys, its a sweet thing Boys, boys, its a sweet thing, sweet thing If you want it, boys, get it here, thing 'Cause hope, boys, is a cheap thing, cheap thing I'm glad that you're older than me Makes me feel important and free Does that make you smile, isn't that me? I'm in your way, and I'll steal every moment If his trade is a curse, then I'll bless you And turn to the crossroads, and hamburgers, and... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D1j9sD3mHJE |

Somebody's Watching Me lyrics
I'm just an average man with an average life I work from nine to five, hey hell I pay the price All I want is to be left alone in my average home But why do I always feel like I'm in the Twilight Zone And... CHORUS: I always feel that somebody's watchin' me And I have no privacy I always feel that somebody's watchin' me Tell me is it just a dream? When I come home at night I bolt the door real tight People call me on the phone I'm trying to avoid Well, can the people on TV see me or am I just paranoid CHORUS When I'm in the shower, I'm afraid to wash my hair 'Cause I might open my eyes and find someone standing there People say I'm crazy, just a little touched But maybe showers remind me of Psycho too much That's why... I always feel like somebody's watching me And I have no privacy I always feel like somebody's watching me Who's playin' tricks on me? I don't know anymore Are the neighbors watching me Well is the mailman watching me And I don't feel safe anymore, oh what a mess I wonder who's watching me now? Who? The IRS? I always feel like somebody's watching me And I have no privacy I always feel like somebody's watching me And I have no privacy Who's playin' tricks on me? I always feel like somebody's watching me Tell me who can it be? I always feel like somebody's watching me http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7bQwin3Vv0k |

2000 Light Years Away
I sit alone in my bedroom Staring at the walls I've been up all damn night long My pulse is speeding My love is yearning I hold my breath and close my eyes and i dream about her Cause she's 2000 light years away She holds my malachite so tight so... Never let go Cause she's 2000 light years away years away I sit outside and watch the sunrise Lookout as far as I can I can't see her, but in the distance I hear some laughter, We laugh together I hold my breath and close my eyes and dream about her Cause she's 2000 light years away She holds my malachite so tight so... Never let go Cause she's 2000 light years away Years away I sit alone in my bedroom Staring at the walls I've been up all damn night long My pulse is speeding My love is yearning I hold my breath and close my eyes and dream about her Cause she's 2000 light years away She holds my malachite so tight oh, Never let go Cause she's 2000 light years away Years away |
