Текст песни:

Boy when out on a boat tonight
Waiting on his lover
Seen his mermaid bride in the moonlight
And the arms of another
She said "standing on the water is easier to do
Then to try and be a family living here with you
And the more I′ve been thinking
The more I know I′m living alone

Now they see him out on the waterways
Rolling on the foam
Only memory for a future
Only ocean for a home
′Cause Amelia′s the name that she calls herself these days
And "birds! birds!" is all we heard before she flew away
And the more I′ve been thinking
The more I know I′m living alone

@ Gary Jules

Текст песни:

Loaded tongue and dirty fingers
Queen of her mother′s house
Come step outside feeling full moon high
Let′s see what we can live without

Fix an eye to the dimestore villain
Waiting for the wine to pour
It comes strong and thin and it tastes like sin
The love we′ve all been in before

A million ways to burn
I′m just looking out of this old broke window
And she′s taking a turn
I′m looking out of this old broke window
And she′s taking a turn

Her body lies like a landscape before you
You′re selling your soul by the pound
Got snakeoil in spades for the wolftickets trade
You look but don′t see me around

A million ways to burn
I′m just standing here on this old street corner
And she′s taking a turn
I′m standing here on this old street corner
And she′s taking a turn

Текст песни:

Eagle in the dark
Feathers in the pages.
Monkeys in my heart
Are rattling their cages.

Found a way to blue
And another ghost to follow
Said "it′s only up to you"
And that′s the hardest pill to swallow.

You never get to choose
You live on what they sent you
And you know they′re gonna use
The things you love against you

One foot in the grave
One foot in the shower
There′s never time to save
You′re paying by the hour

And that′s just the way it goes
Falling awake
And that′s just the way it goes

Slipping through the bars
Aware of the danger
Of riding in the cars
Taking candy from strangers

And it′s never out of hand
Never out of pocket
I′m supersonic man
Do you wanna buy a rocket?

And that′s just the way it goes
Falling awake, falling awake
Oh that′s just the way it goes
Falling awake, falling awake

Eagle in the dark
Feathers in the pages
Monkeys in my heart
Are rattling their cages

I could learn to play the game
I could learn to run the hustle
If I only had the brains
The money or the muscle

Текст песни:

never try to understand me
expectation make me old
hide your pennies in the sin?
some how I am supposed to know
the hardest thing to do
let it go
and i know we′ve been affected
perfected
the power to charm
did we serve to entertain
did we find someone to blame

what I said, what I did
we′re not the same

(chorus)
oh I am breathing (I am breathing)
oh I am leaving in the morning
maybe you can think about it when I′m gone

could we lie behind the fables
heroes and heroin
the wait here is far too much
to be worth so little
but will she come and stay with me

(chorus)

did we serve to entertain
did we find someone to blame
was it something in your head
was it something in your name?
give me something I can hold
I can try my best to help you
if you never let me down, oh

never try to understand her
heroes and heroin
are very unforgiving
do the things that you think you should
to let you know you′re alive
you are young you are beautiful

(chorus)

oh I am breathing (I am beathing)
oh I am leaving in morning
maybe you can think about it when I go

Текст песни:

You can′t save me from myself
You can′t save her
You′re lucky if you save yourself
Do yourself a favor

@ Gary Jules

Текст песни:

All around me are familiar faces
Worn out places, worn out faces
Bright and early for the daily races
Going no where, going no where
Their tears are filling up their glasses
No expression, no expression
Hide my head I wanna drown my sorrow
No tomorrow, no tomorrow

And I find it kind of funny
I find it kind of sad
The dreams in which I’m dying
Are the best I’ve ever had
I find it hard to tell you
I find it hard to take
When people run in circles its a very very
Mad world, mad world

Children waiting for the day
They feel good
Happy birthday, happy birthday
And I feel the way
that every child should
Sit and listen, sit and listen
Went to school and I was very nervous
No one knew me, no one knew me
Hello teacher tell me what’s my lesson
Look right through me, look right through me

And I find it kind of funny
I find it kind of sad
The dreams in which I’m dying
Are the best I’ve ever had
I find it hard to tell you
I find it hard to take
When people run in circles its a very very
Mad world, mad world
Enlarging your world
Mad world

Текст песни:

"There′s no poetry between us"
Said the paper to the pen
Something′s burning in the attic
That her tongue will not defend
Through the arc of conversation
Past the teeth behind the smile
Down the miracle mile
To the bottom of the ladder
Paint your eyes and hide the tatters
What′s the matter baby?
Could we go downtown
To the middle of the world?
You were always such a pretty girl
And you told me I was beautiful
"There′s no poetry between us"
Said the paper to the pen
"And I get nothing for my trouble
But the ink beneath my skin"
If your clothes are getting weary
And your soul′s gone out of style
Blame the miracle mile
And the bottom of the ladder
Paint your eyes and hide the tatters
What′s the matter baby?
...I′m coming too

Текст песни:

There′s no fortune to be made here,
It′s just a town like any other town.
Sure there must be good things left to say
Can′t think of one, so...
I won′t say,

nothing...

Wears a pretty face and armor
She got shine at the surface and coal below,
nothing...
Please don′t tell me,
I already know,
...nothing

Living like a mobile spinnig off its line
Fed up of always sad about the wheels-within-wheels
Tension rising higher, it′s coming through my window
And all I seem to feel...

is nothing...
Please don′t tell me, I already know
nothing...
Oh, it′s getting better now
But time will show

Nothing - never goes away
Nothing - never goes away

Tonight I saw her again
A blood red luna (looner?) sitting on the bridge
It could have been a sign but I don′t believe in signs,
I... don′t believe in...

Nothing...
Please don′t tell me, I already know
...nothing

Oh, it′s getting easier
But time will show
...nothing

She′s got a brand new set of reasons
Why she can′t let it go

Nothing

Please, don′t tell me, I already know,

...nothing

Текст песни:

Feet on the dashboard
Head on the window
Moon on a desert tree
I will, I will
I will stand in your light again
Heard me a memory
Out on the avenue
Where people get
What they think they need
Sound of a symphony
Up from the gutter
The tattooed confessions
Of my last good deed
I will, I will
I will sing you the road song blues
Someday
I will sing you the road song blues
Free are the lonely ones
And lonely is as lonely does
Far away from the warm street lights
I never shine like the way they shine
Maybe one day but tonight
It???s another bed and another TV
In another hotel room
I will, I will
I will sleep by your side again
I will, I will
I will sing you the road song blues
I will, I will
I will sing you the road song blues
Someday
I will sing you the road song blues
