You write a letter You put it on the wall To say you never wanted To be here at all The passersby don't like your point of view Oh baby disappear Oh baby disappear from view You had a dark night It took away your soul You paid your penance Her name was Mary Lou The cutter thought you never would come through Oh baby disappear Oh baby disappear from view Just duck under the highway Just leap into a drain Just sneak into the back room and Trash the poker game The prosecution Said you're the one to blame You signed the deal And the devil staked his claim That big mouth Lucifer knows what's bad for you So baby disappear Oh babe just disappear from view Just ride into the sunset Climb up on the back of the train Maybe the rain man Won't touch your back again You scrawl a note The ink will never dry Because your blood Can't coagulate a lie But with some luck you might hide your whole life through Oh BABY DISAPPEAR Sweet orphan disappear Baby just disappear Just disappear from view.

Crystal Ball 04:01
Your face is next to the last one A blank space next to the next one The future brings our past in focus But any more than that is hocus pocus We're rigged to cry and triggered to explode So why be surprised when we shoot off road? The ship's got a tonne of containers to off-load That's why we're going nowhere fast The disco light's too bright to see when we'll fall Time is too tight to know what the future holds But one thing i know is before we walk we crawl To see that i don't need no crystal ball I tried to buy the future yesterday But without a gold standard I just couldn't pay I tried to make up the slack with a bowlful of love But you'd already had enough of me Yes, you'd already had enough of me The shards are reflecting every cut i caused The light hits every face dancing on the floor But I know you don't need me at all To see that you don't need no crystal ball You don't need no crystal ball The disco light's too bright to see when we'll fall Time is too tight to know what the future holds But one thing i know is before we walk we crawl To see that i don't need no crystal ball

Shadows on my bed The feel of the sheets are in my head And the open doors are closed instead Nowhere to go Records of the dead Weird noises under the bed Laughter and tears in the kitchen All gone now You still talk to me When I close my eyes You still talk to me Why won't you leave me alone? It's just the ghost of you girl Following me around It's just the ghost of you with me Now I feel something close to me But when I turn round to see There´s nothing there I'm all alone Reflections talk to me And the rays of the sun catch my eye And I pause before I reply In conversation And what's near is now far away And each face in the tiles tells me no way Her face will never return All gone now You still talk to me When I close my eyes You still talk to me Why won't you leave me alone? It's just the ghost of you girl Following me around It's just the ghost of you with me Now I feel something close to me But when I turn round to see There´s nothing there I'm all alone But that´s what I have Always known You're all in my head You're all in my head And I'll have to quit the show If I want to let you go Records of the dead Weird noises under the bed Laughter and tears in the kitchen All gone now....

Alone 04:29
Today you need a hard case just to protect your broken heart So you can lock it down tight, press the latches, pull it hard So you can grind your teeth like Cassius Clay, I know I know it's hard Put your gloves up, put your head down, rumble through to the last yard I tried to bury the hatchet, but my head was attached to it I think my head's still bleeding and my eyesight a growing dim You fetched your pipe and sword and all the rest you didn't need So you could cut to the chase and win the race and win the seed But You do to have to misunderstand it You don't have to grin and groan You don't have to blow a gasket You don't have to be alone You don't have to be alone Sometimes we get crazy, sometimes we just get tired Sometimes I want to shoot me, sometimes I just want to get fired Right now I can't even count the times I've been a happy man Can I substitute my constitution for one with a master plan? CH You're creeping up the stairs Cos you know he's all alone But when you break into the closet You'll find he's already gone Through the coats and down the drain To a land called "You'll never know." But why would you want to know? Why would you want to know? CH Sometimes I wake and I don't know where I've been And just for one moment I forget that I am me Yeah, just for one great moment, I am no longer get me I am free

Little Thing 04:32
Little thing what you doing round here Little thing it’s the wrong time of year To be on the run To be on the run To be on the run Little thing don't give in to the fear Little thing the answers not down here It's under our sun It's under our sun It's under our sun Give love Give love away Riches Come with faith Little thing why you looking so scared Don't you know fear is all in the head? Flip it into love Flip it into love Flip it into love Give it All away Riches Come with faith There are no reruns Thus is the only one There are a thousand suns But we have only one You've got to love it You've got to grow it Give your Love away Life will Pave your way Just fly Just fly Away

Revolution 04:00
The desert bakes The tanks rumble I've got his shadow In my sights The ground shakes The city crumbles There's nothing left for us to rescue I don't want to be In your revolution It don't taste sweet to me Anymore I just can't see The light you told me about There's no electricity Anymore I try to find You're body in the rubble Because I still Want to believe what you said If you're in heaven Just give me a signal But I don't think I'll be getting a tweet from you So, I don't want to be In your revolution It don't taste sweet to me Anymore I just can't see The light you told me about There's no electricity Anymore We had all these stories told to us About the war And what never happened I try to find A new reason To carry on that doesn't involve you Everybody shakes Everything crumbles There's nothing left for you to take back tonight I don't want to be In your revolution It don't taste sweet to me Anymore I just can't see The light you told me about There's no electricity Anymore (x2)

Septembered 03:44
Green turns to gold Everyone looks old Maybe they're tired Of hurting again  Warm turns to cold The brave and the bold Are the only ones To face it all again My leaves are turning brown They're falling to the ground I've been Septembered Septembered again Day turns to night I don't think I can fight I've been Septembered Septembered again I think I knew you once When the summer warmed our blood Our pulses racing Our visions were the same But it all turned to dust And the mist mystified our trust That's why we're standing In two worlds under the same rain And My leaves are turning brown They're falling to the ground I've been Septembered Septembered again And Day turns to night I don't think that I can fight I've been Septembered Septembered again (Instrumental Bridge) Young turns to old Like a story I was told But unlike that tale I'm all alone again Bodies turn to souls And memories die untold Cos it's September September again September again

I sat myself down by the river Watched the raindrops disappear Heard a rustling in the branches Heard your birdsong in my ear I know I'm just a regular sinner But I can only come from where I've been And after seeing how you left us I know none of us – are evergreen Come and soothe my soul Make me calm and whole Move me with your rock and roll Yeah daddy soothe my soul Come and soothe my soul Make me fly with the birds who sang to you Make me calm and whole Yeah daddy soothe my soul I smelled the smoke coming out of the doorway I felt a wind blowing down the highway A kind of warmth was calling my way Through the frost and through the cold Now I hear you from the branches Whispering, “Leave no stone unturned.” I turn my face towards the street I feel complete - I no longer feel so old Come and soothe my soul Make me calm and whole Move me with your rock and roll Yeah daddy soothe my soul Come and soothe my soul Make me fly with the birds who sang to you Make me calm and whole Yeah daddy soothe my soul And I can hear your songs In every field and floating highway In every bitter twist in every bad day Taking out the thorn Come soothe my soul.... Soothing Oh soothing Oh soothe me

Suicide Spin 03:10
My eyes are wide open I can feel you on my skin A cold wind blowing Won't anybody let me in? Oh it's a sin I ran away and I can't get back in It's a suicide spin The spin that I'm in A suicide spin I won't survive the night tonight It's time for a party Let's break out the beer It's time for corruption Cos everybody's here It's time for the doormen To make it clear You won't be paying out tonight Oh it's a sin I ran away and I can't get back in It's a suicide spin The spin that I'm in A suicide spin I won't survive the night tonight You've always known how to move me Soothe me And tell me what I'm thinking is wrong You've always been two floors above me Watching me No need for wiretaps on my phone (instrumental) It's time for a party Let's break out the beer It's time for corruption Cos everybody's here It's time for the facts To become unclear Yes we´re burning in a fire of lies (Oh it's a sin I ran away and I can't get back in It's a suicide spin The spin that I'm in A suicide spin I won't survive the night tonight) Tear gas is falling all around me Smothering me But we've got to get on with the show Your dirty tricks make it a party Your killing me But that´s the way it goes....

Rocking horse melody Between the felonies Trying to get back the cup Timing it right Might be a challenge tonight Making out or making the sub Dark or light Must do it right Or It'll come back to you Should I take The last subway back? Well baby it's up to you Ideas are circling Outside the outskirts These ideas are made for two Taking a train Of bad thoughts again All roads lead to we two Dark or light I'll try not to bite Baby I'll come back to you Should I take Take the last subway back? Well baby it's up to you There's always another train to jump on But right now this feels like the only one Day and night Doing things right Coming and going with you Don't make me take The last subway back Well baby, your move
