Some Kind of Magic

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, and now
And now
He's gone away
Some kind of magic goes
Bye bye, buh-bye
Bye, buh-bye
Buh-bye
Some kind of 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, and now
And now
He's gone away
Some kind of magic goes
Bye bye, buh-bye
Bye, buh-bye
Buh-bye
Some kind of magic goes
Bye bye, buh-bye
Bye, buh-bye
Buh-bye
Some kind of magic goes
Bye bye, buh-bye
Bye, buh-bye
Buh-bye
Some kind of magic goes
Bye bye, buh-bye
Bye, buh-bye
Buh-bye

The Way He Sways

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
But 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
Give 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 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
But I could be wrong
And it all might be Karma

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 that 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 thought 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 home
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
Is it 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 seas 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 let 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) If you never see it coming
(Then you'll never) Then you'll never let it go
Aimed like a missile
At the things you know (Things you know)
(If you never) If you never get it going
(Then you'll never) 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

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

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

Summer's Gone

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's coming
But I'm out here
Sunbathing in the pouring rain
Out in the rain
Lock your windows
Lock you 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's 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's 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 Monday
News and more at 9
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

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
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
