Do you think I want to see
I don't wanna see you now
Do you think I want to believe
I won't believe you now
All I want you cannot give
I see that through your eyes
Through this darkest dream
I finally come to realize

I trip inside your wired mind

Do you miss the morning breeze
that feeling you could fly
Do you walk out in the rain
there's no place where you can hide
If what you want I cannot give
And words just let you down
Through this darkest dream I'll come
to tell you what I found

I trip inside your wired mind





Hey you, looking at me
what do you see?
my soul full of dreams
Hey you drinking the wine
you live in disguise
my song dressed in rhymes

come together
come together now

Hey, your lips are moving now
but no one can hear you call
it's all in your head
hey you, your eyelids unwind
painting me skies
my soul dressed in rags

come together
come together now





It's so hard for me
Let me be out of here
Let me get what I want
though I can't say what it means

How can I sleep?
lost in such complexity
I've seen the days pass me by
I know the truth is just a lie

Don't try to help me out
What took your love so long
Don't you turn around
You gotta deal with wrongs and rights
Don't go now, it's alright

Sister, won't you please bring me back
the yesterdays lost and found?
I closed my eyes to the clocks
listen to the girl as she walks into the scene
it seems that no one really cares
- she slowly moves across my head

Don't try to help me out
What took your love so long
Don't you turn around
You gotta deal with wrongs and rights
Don't go now, it's alright

(I see you)





The sixteenth hour and I am here again
among the grains of sand
dressed up to better feel the sun
The little things that I have seen remain
and even when they faint
old colours bring them back again

Combine the words and then I'll set you free
don't throw your arms around me
roll on your shades into degrees
but if you don't know when it first went wrong
I've been waiting for so long
the pain gets real if you're not here

But then we get high
and nothing else can please us now
and we don't know why
raindrops linger in my room


Forever and ever I will seem the same
I'm trees and leaves and maybe
not even I should know the game
I cut across these feeling shattered down
statues all around
like mirrors put in front of me


I'll forget them by now
and remember how we used to be
we don't know why





I've been up and I've been down
lost in misery
I have followed these vibrations
colours don't comfort me
when I feel down

I'm falling slowly
Falling slowly, yeah

And now my words sound so ephemeral
how shall I thank you
when the seasons change and you
save me from this dream
that confronts me?

Falling slowly
Falling slowly yeah






Sally's written plays
with untold and strange compound names
the mystic haze has gone away
She runs she runs she stands still
and no one else I know can see she's here

When Sally needed me
she kissed my lips so faithfully
she sold me love she lied to me
there ain't no reasons to regret
although I've got just sand all over me

I'm so much better now
so much better now
and she's way much better now

Sally's written plays
and no one knows just where she's been
and no one knows just what she needs
but they'll come down and see the play
- This Lonely Boy Who Lives In Misery

Yeah, Sally needed me
she kissed my lips so faithfully
she sold me love she lied to me
there ain't no reasons to regret
although I've got just sand all over me

I'm so much better now
so much better now
and she's way much better now





Come, come, come, your love can feed me
Don't, don't, don't, don't let me slip away
you've found someone to wallow in your feelings
and take your hands when love needs healing

But you can make it on your own
You can make it on your own

You've been waiting far too long now
you thought they'd care if you hit it down, down
I closed my eyes and breezes kiss me
I wish you could, I wish you were here

You can make it on your own
You can make it on your own

- So I see love and faith collide
as you lead me into the valley
I let my bare feet touch the grass
it's not what you take
it's not what you give

Come, come, come, your love can feed me
Don't ,don't ,don't, don't let me slipway
you've found someone to wallow in your feelings
your love still feeds me and breezes kiss me now

You can make it on your own
You can make it on your own





Have you seen the clouds?
Has your face hit the ground?
It ain't right if you can’t feel it
It ain't true if it can't be found
You gotta find directions
You can't just wait the changes to come
I knew that soon you'd realize
Your heart belongs to distant shores

Now rain comes down, down, down
The faintest blue keeps chasing you
- but it cannot fool my soul

You'll learn the best way to make friends
And yet the ground beneath your shoes
Just won't be there at every moment
(If there's no blues there can be no soul)
You gotta find directions
A place where love won't be so cruel
- I'll see you sometime, kiss me goodbye
And leave the town where I was born

Now rain comes down, down, down
The faintest blue keeps chasing you
- but it cannot fool my soul





Maybe you said too much
everything is more than just a second opinion
I don't believe in truth
some of these words just let me down

They always let me down

Maybe you thought too much
everything is more than just a second opinion
I don't believe in truth
some of these words just let me down

They always let me down





I do not care if you have been there
not even I can make you see things through the light
I do not care

I wish I knew that love is a steel that comes and goes
in all things I see you laugh at me
the clue's inside my mind
Come back now





Sunday comes into my mind
and shadows play another day
and my soul shines on, shines on
I lay my will under your feet
I throw myself into your sea
Yet no words could set me free
and my soul shines on shines on

I say - Hey ho, here she comes into my dreams
I say - Hey ho, don't wake me up today
if heaven's coming down
or hell is all around

Sunday lingers on for a while
A bullet sparks before my eyes
But truth is on my side
The old streets I know so well
my thoughts meander into the sound
And I feel so strange and pure
and my soul shines on shines on

I say - Hey ho, here she comes into my dreams
I say - Hey ho, don't wake me up today
if heaven's coming down
or hell is all around






I don't mind - she said - I don't mind
I can't fix the mess you've grown inside
The voices in your head can tell you what to do
Still I don't know what's wrong with you
Everything should be alright by now

You can't see and that seems to me
we're not the ones we used to be
We've been so loaded
Now everyone is about
This failing love that we have found
But you've got plenty of time to search and realize
That maybe love don't talk in rhymes with you

And you've got plenty of time to search and realize
That maybe I won't be around you






Ride like winds never will
But don't drag me into your fears
I feel so dreary and strange
That's not the face that I used to wear

Days will turn into nights
And how I feel you will never know
Please just leave me here right now
I don't wanna see you smiling
I will turn around

I will turn around
'cos I don't belong here

And now it's done my dearest one
I long your kiss but not like I did before
I'll turn around
