World keeps turning 05:57
lyrics
buy track
World keeps turning She parked in front his window Like a killer on the scene She parked in front his window Like a killer on the scene Yeah, the whole world's a wildernes He had only seen on t.v. screens She knocked upon his window He didn't hear with the t.v. on She knocked upon his window He didn't hear with the t.v. on He saw the world turning and turning But had never seen what was really going on World keeps on turning I hope it don't turn bad on you Now the windows started to tremble As she drove into the wild Ah man, the windows started to tremble As she drove into the wild She knew the world would keep on turning Said: "Good luck", and smiled No more headlights through his window Only shadows from the moon No more headlights through his window Lonely shadows from the moon And though the world outside keeps hurting It hurts most in your own little room World keeps on turning I hope it don't turn bad on you

In the sun 05:36
lyrics
buy track
In the sun We're only sitting here in the sun Looking around like nothing is wrong Noone likes to get hurt don't you know We can always save it for tomorrow Sometimes Oh, sometimes I want to go far away From here Anytime, yeah Anytime Somewhere in the middle of the air They always say: "Hey, it's not so bad" Staring at the sky turning black No one likes to hear the truth don't you know No one wants you to go against the flow Sometimes Oh, sometimes I want to go far away From here Anytime, yeah Anytime Somewhere in the middle of the air Sometimes dark clouds hang in front my sight With complaints and mockery Sometimes I trip across the sky Escape the pull of gravity Sometimes I scream like a flame to the sun And burn down everything I love Sometimes I wonder: "How do you feel?" Or am I just the only one Only sitting here in the sun Only sitting here in the sun Only sitting here

Room 101 04:36
lyrics
buy track
Room 101 If we keep this secret Hidden in our minds Let's stay up all night getting high Tomorrow we'll just be friends Hmmm We can go some place Where noone knows our names Tomorrow the desolate wind will sweep Down the crooked lanes Hmmm You spin in circles round my mind You spin in circles round my mind Tear down these walls Blow up the whole damned town Tomorrow we can pile the bricks Build back our walls Hmmm Meet me anytime In the middle of nowhere We can lose our way Tomorrow we'll disappear Hmmm You spin in circles round my mind You spin in circles round my mind

A million days 04:33
lyrics
buy track
A million days A million cups of coffee Before I hit the road Powder on my sleeve And the usual load Dark mirror shades My mind still debates And is certain all has come To fade away The world is still One big factory Just making things To keep us happy I have gone deeper underground To a place where the sun never goes down I still think of you a million times each day I would love to come and visit you some day You still whisper in my mind that it's okay The smell of the seasons Bring back memories As I'm lazing down The long lime lane I always gaze At ruined factories Abandoned tracks Where trains don't arrive or leave No more lovers on the rooftops No more pictures of he and she Only frozen statues On every street I have gone deeper underground To a place where the sun never goes down I still think of you a million times each day I would love to come and visit you some day You still whisper in my mind that it’s okay

Bad day in hell 05:37
lyrics
buy track
Bad day in hell Seen the dark crows fly in circles Sreaming this land is condemned So, we'd go a million miles Down to the lowlands No more words were ever spoken Other than to wish us well Nobody could sing the blues Like I did that day in hell One day I just started singing And play at my own expence The stars above the flamboyant tree Were my only audience All god's faithfull children Recite their prayers well But nobody could sing the blues Like I did that day in hell Darkened roads never fade My eyes still often stare Into some distant oblivion Where all my ghosts still appear I still see her standing at my window I still hear her calling out my name Nobody could sing the blues Like I did that day in hell See me standing at the microphone I put my soul up for sale But even I can't sing the blues Like I did that day in hell

Shadow man 03:37
lyrics
buy track
Shadow man Nobody home Peaceful They're all out in the Sodom night Screaming I am lost All my friends Call me Shadow man Mister shadow man they call me I am lost Forever Teachers and preachers Oh, they pray for me: "Don't go there" All the curches filled with choires sing the hymnes for someone to save me I am lost Forever Nobody home Peaceful I am out in the lonely night Drifting I am lost Forever Lost forever Goodbye 'cause I'm never ever Coming home

Leave the town 03:56
lyrics
buy track
Leave the town I have to leave the town for good today I have to leave the town, 'cause I can not stay I'm running away from my broken dreams Life just ain't what it seems I have to leave the town I have to leave the scene People in this place don't want me back There's a lady I'm a leaving, it's kind of sad A patient man I'll be one day I'd lose my mind if I'd have stay I have to leave the town I have to go away If you play with fire you're bound to get burned 'till the flames die down and the winds have turned Now I'm gone not to return What's left behind is left to burn I have to leave the town With a hard lesson to be learned Oh, I'm going, I'm going, I'm going, I'm going away Me and this place go a long way back The good times are gone and they won't come back Things have changed and so it always goes I'm going some place where no one knows I have to leave the town I'm going to where the wind blows I'm sick and tired of shedding these tears I'm sick and tired of the same old fears I got a rock 'n' roll car, songs to play Leave my cage in the land of pain I have to leave the town Won't let my soul be betrayed Oh, I'm going, I'm going, I'm going, I'm going away

No more talk about the rain 04:53
lyrics
buy track
No more talk about the rain It's like running through the graveyard Knowing that is where it ends With nothing to live up to And nothing to die for All seems well How we play our starring roles Behind the curtain There's a different show No more talk about the rain It's like standing at your post With no dominion to defend Sweeping desert floors The world is a grain of sand The unborn more worthy Than the living and the dead Never has it seen All the malice that we've bread No more talk about the rain

Oh the moon 04:53
lyrics
buy track
Oh the moon It took twenty years to find out I lost my way to your heart Took plenty tears to cry out We have grown apart It was hard for me to write this song Will be hard for you to sing a long Sounds like howling at the moon Oh, the moon Oh, the moon Milk breast the pillow chest Mothers' milk did taste the best Mothers are no ordinary women They are sacred, they are blessed Once you find out she's only human too It's scary to know she could be that cruel Feels like howling at the moon Oh, the moon Oh, the moon I thought for sure she knew before In glazed houses never slam the door Image of my archetype Broken after her suicide Intimacy was eternal bliss Now it's just a Judas kiss Remain in debt, maintain her pride Only talk about the sunny side And I'm still howling at the moon Oh, the moon Oh, the moon

Requiem 03:45
lyrics
buy track
Requiem I don't want to sing this song But it must be done Before you're gone I want you to know How I'll feel when you're gone Somewhere far away From me I see your face fixed like stone There's noone home Where should I go I'll never find you in the hollow Of all the places we used to go But you're still here Instilled in me Until I go I don't know how you'll take this song But it must be done Before you're gone I've never seen you cry Did you used to cry like me When it hurt Just as bad Like I do now I know you'll have no stone Where I can go Cry and morn We'll never meet again Oh, please open your eyes Don't leave me On my own In this crazy world
