“Careless Memories”

So soon,
Just after you’ve gone
My senses sharpen
But it always takes
So damned long
Before I feel how much
My eyes have darkened

Fear hangs a plane of gunsmoke
Drifting in our room
So easy to disturb
With a thought
With a whisper…
With a careless memory

On the table
Signs of love life scattered…
And the walls break
We go crashing within
It’s not as though–
As though you really mattered
But being close,
How could I let you go
Without some feeling
Some precious sympathy following

Fear hangs a plane of gunsmoke
Drifting in our room
So easy to disturb
With a thought
With a whisper…
With a careless memory

I walk out into the sun
I try to find a new day
But the whole place
It just screams in my eyes
Where are you now?
Cuz I don’t want to meet you
I think I’d die–
I think I’d laugh at you–
I think I’d cry–
What am I supposed to do,
Follow you?

Outside the thoughts
Come flooding back now…
I just try to forget you…
So easy to disturb
With a thought…
With a whisper…
With a careless memory…

 

” Anyone Out There?”

I never found out what made you leave
Another day’s over just an hour to go
Well I tried to phone last night but you never answered
Just left me ringing on the lineOutside is there anyone out there anyone else outside
Woah outside love is there anyone out there anyone else outside

My face in the mirror shows a break in time
A crack in the ocean, it does not align
I tried to sleep last night, but I’ve caught ya dreaming
About days we used to wonder away

Outside is there anyone out there anyone else outside
Woah outside love is there anyone out there anyone else outside

Look out of the window maybe you can call by my name
Another night over babe another light comes on in vain
Well I tried to phone last night but you never answered
You just left me ringing in the air

Is there anyone out there (anyone out there) oh, oh
Anyone out there (anyone out there) oh, oh
Anyone out there (anyone out there) oh, oh
Anyone out there (anyone out there) oh, oh
Anyone out there (anyone out there)

 

 

“Lonely In Your Nightmare”

Even on the darkest night when empty promise means empty hand
And soldiers coming home like shadows turning red
And when the lights of hope are fading quickly then look to me
I’ll be your homing angel I’ll be in your headBecause you’re lonely in your nightmare let me in
And there’s heat beneath your winter let me in

 

I see the delta traces living lonely out on the limb
And a passing glimmer warm beneath your skin
Please tread gently on the ground when all around you earth turns to fire
Only get a second chance when danger’s on the wind

Because you’re lonely in your nightmare let me in
Because there’s heat beneath your winter let me in

Must be lucky whether when you find the kind of wind that you need
Come on show me all the light and shade that made your name
I know you’ve got it in your head I’ve seen that look before
You’ve built your refuge turns you captive all the same

Because your lonely in your nightmare let me in
And it’s barren in your garden let me in
Because there’s heat beneath your winter let me in
Because you’re so lonely in your nightmare let me in
And it’s cold out on the stone range let me in
Because there’s heat beneath your winter let me in

 

“Last Chance On The Stairway”

I don’t remember quite how I met you wasn’t long ago
I just get a picture of sun in your eyes the waves in your hair
Maybe it’s something said in a movie or you could’ve said last night
It just took me out on a limb and I don’t really know what I’m doing hereAnd sometimes I’m caught in a landslide and my beats so in time can you look at me
I’m out of reach I’ll talk if it feels right I’ve had my last chance on the stairway

 

Funny it’s just like a scene out of Voltaire twisting out of sight
Cause when all the curtains are pulled back we’ll turn and see the circles we’ve traced
Ain’t no game (ooo-ooo) when you’re playing with fire
It doesn’t seem right that we fight so the party runs all night

And sometimes I’m caught in a landslide and my beats so in time can you look at me
I’m out of reach I’ll talk if it feels right I’m so nervous to say tell me can’t you see
And if you want I’ll fall off forever I can’t say no more baby dance with me
And please don’t say leave it till later I’ve had my last chance on the stairway

Wonder why (wonder why ooo-ooo) what makes me rise so high
Maybe it’s something they put in your perfume or the look in your eyes
It could be the atmosphere sinking ooo I don’t even know what you’re thinking
I don’t even know what you’re drinking but it keeps this heaven alive

And sometimes I’m caught in a landslide and my beats so in time can you look at me
I’m out of reach I’ll talk if it feels right I’m so nervous to say tell me can’t you see
And if you want I’ll fall off forever I can’t say no more baby dance with me
And please don’t say leave it till later I’ve had my last chance on the stairway
Last chance on the stairway, last chance on the stairway
Last chance on the stairway, last chance on the stairway
Last chance on the stairway, last chance on the stairway
Last chance on the stairway

 

“Save A Prayer”

You saw me standing by the wall,
Corner of a main street
And the lights are flashing on your window sill
All alone ain’t much fun,
So you’re looking for the thrill
And you know just what it takes and where to goDon’t say a prayer for me now,
Save it ’til the morning after
No, don’t say a prayer for me now,
Save it ’til the morning after

Feel the breeze deep on the inside,
Look you down into your well
If you can, you’ll see the world in all his fire
Take a chance
(Like all dreamers can’t find another way)
You don’t have to dream it all, just live a day

Don’t say a prayer for me now,
Save it ’til the morning after
No, don’t say a prayer for me now,
Save it ’til the morning after
Save it ’til the morning after,
Save it till the morning after

Pretty looking road,
Try to hold the rising floods that fill my skin
Don’t ask me why I’ll keep my promise,
Melt the ice
And you wanted to dance so I asked you to dance
But fear is in your soul
Some people call it a one night stand
But we can call it paradise

Don’t say a prayer for me now,
Save it ’til the morning after
No, don’t say a prayer for me now,
Save it ’til the morning after
Save it ’til the morning after
Save it ’til the morning after
Save it ’til the morning after
Save it ’til the morning after

Save a prayer ’til the morning after

 

“Of Crime And Passion”

Why did you let me run
When you knew I’d fall for the gaping hole
Where your heart should be
Liar-couldn’t cut me deeper with a knife if you tried
Just take a look (before you run off and hide)
At your victim arise

Clouds on you shoulder
Aren’t they grazed by the afterglow
How quiet they gather
When the storm is about to blow

[CHORUS]
No don’t look away
Caught in the crossfire
And it ain’t no wind of change
I’m talking of crime and passion’s rage

Summer of madness or the undertow
Dragged me up an alley for the blossoming fire
On a stranger’s smile
Bride of wire-how disguise so easily cracked
Saw your heart turn spade
This orchid’s turned to black

Graze on your shoulder
Like the clouds in the afterglow
How quiet they gather
When the storm is about to blow

[CHORUS]

Way down by the shoulder
In the haze of the afterglow
Stranded together
And the storm is about to blow

[CHORUS]

 

“The Seventh Stranger”

Those words are all remainders
Echoes growing in the heart of twilight
They lay back laughing at naivety’s star
Awaken all those whispers in the dusty shadow of a
Passing favour
I wouldn’t say that you were ruthless or right
I couldn’t see from so far
Was I chasing after rainbows
One thing for sure you never answered when I called
And I wiped away the water from my face
To look through the eyes of a stranger
For rumours in the wake of such a lonely crowd
Trading in my shelter for danger
I’m changing my name just as the sun goes down
In the eyes of a strangerCan’t tell the real from reflections
When all these faces look the same to me
In every city such a desolate dream
Some days are strange to number
Some say the seventh sounds a little bit stranger
A year of Sundays seems to have drifted right by
(I could have sworn) in one evening
And I’m not seized in desperation
No steel reproaches on the table from before
But I still can feel those splinters of ice
I look through the eyes of a stranger
For rumours in the wake of such a lonely crowd
Trading in my shelter for danger
I’m changing my name just as the sun goes down
In the eyes of a stranger

I must be chasing after rainbows
One thing for sure you never answer when I call
And I wipe away the water from my face
To look through the eyes of a stranger
For rumour in the wake of such a lonely crowd
Trading in my shelter for danger
I’m changing my name just as the sun goes down
Walking away like a stranger
From rumours in the wake of such a lonely crowd
Trading in my shelter for danger
I’m changing my name just as the sun goes down
In the eyes of a stranger

 

“Wild Boys”

The wild boys are calling
On their way back from the fire
In august moon’s surrender to
A dust cloud on the rise
Wild boys fallen far from glory
Reckless and so hungered
On the razors edge you trail
Because there’s murder by the roadside
In a sore afraid new worldThey tried to break us,
Looks like they’ll try again

Wild boys never lose it
Wild boys never chose this way
Wild boys never close your eyes
Wild boys always shine

You got sirens for a welcome
There’s bloodstain for your pain
And your telephone been ringing while
You’re dancing in the rain
Wild boys wonder where is glory
Where is all you angels
Now the figureheads have fell
And lovers war with arrows over
Secrets they could tell

They tried to tame you
Looks like they’ll try again

Wild boys never lose it
Wild boys never chose this way
Wild boys never close your eyes
Wild boys always shine

 

“Notorious”

No-no-Notorious. Notorious. Ah. No-no-Notorious.I can’t read about it.
Burns the skin from your eyes.
I’ll do fine without it.
Here’s one you don’t compromise.
Lies come hard in disguise.
They need to fight it out.
Not wild about it.
Lay your seedy judgements.
Who says they’re part of our lives?

[CHORUS]
You own the money ;
You control the witness.
I’ll leave you lonely.
Don’t monkey with my business.
You pay the prophets to justify your reasons.
I heard your promise,but I don’t believe it.

That’s why I’ve done it again. No-no-Notorious.

Girls will keep the secrets (uh)
So long as boys make a noise.
Fools run rings to break up.
Something they’ll never destroy.
Grand Notorious slam (bam).
And who really gives a damn for a flaky bandit?
Don’t ask me to bleed about it;
I need this blood to survive.

[CHORUS]

That’s why I’ve done it again. No-no-Notorious.

[CHORUS]

[CHORUS]

That’s why I’ve done it again. No. No.
That’s why I’ve done it again. No-no-Notorious.
That’s why I’ve done it again. No-no-Notorious.
No-no-Notorious. Yeah.
That’s why I’ve done it again. No-no-Notorious.
No-no-Notorious. Yeah.
That’s why I’ve done it again. No-no-Notorious.
No-no-Notorious.

 

 

“Ordinary World”

Came in from a rainy Thursday
On the avenue
Thought I heard you talking softlyI turned on the lights, the TV
And the radio
Still I can’t escape the ghost of you

What has happened to it all?
Crazy, some are saying
Where is the life that I recognize?
Gone away

But I won’t cry for yesterday
There’s an ordinary world
Somehow I have to find
And as I try to make my way
To the ordinary world
I will learn to survive

Passion or coincidence
Once prompted you to say
“Pride will tear us both apart”
Well now pride’s gone out the window
Cross the rooftops
Run away
Left me in the vacuum of my heart

What is happening to me?
Crazy, some’d say
Where is my friend when I need you most?
Gone away

But I won’t cry for yesterday
There’s an ordinary world
Somehow I have to find
And as I try to make my way
To the ordinary world
I will learn to survive

Papers in the roadside
Tell of suffering and greed
Here today, forgot tomorrow
Ooh, here besides the news
Of holy war and holy need
Ours is just a little sorrowed talk

And I don’t cry for yesterday
There’s an ordinary world
Somehow I have to find
And as I try to make my way
To the ordinary world
I will learn to survive

Every one
Is my world, I will learn to survive
Any one
Is my world, I will learn to survive
Any one
Is my world
Every one
Is my world

 

 

“Love Voodoo”

When I first met you on the roof
You cought me in your web of youth
But now I know the wicked truth
It’s much to late so what’s the use in fighting?You peel me like an onion skin
And wonder at the state I’m in
One day you’ll turn up to begin
And find there’s nothing left but innuendo

Beside you others fade away
Like Amateurs in love’s charade
Much more than just a game you play
These certain rules become a way of living

Night after night I try to prove
That I can resist you
Tied up inside your Love Voodoo
Designed to Manipulate

The Queen of sensuality
You shelter me from Liberty
It’s nothing short of Piracy
That’s not to say it doesn’t please me sometimes.

Now this may come as no surprise
But I’m content to compromise
Until the day you realize
That I have been manipulating you

Night after night I try to prove
That I can resist you
Tied up inside your Love Voodoo
Designed to Manipulate

[MID]

Yes, I’m tied up inside your loving
But it’s voodoo to me

Everynight how I try
How I try to resist you
But it’s no good to me

Night after night I try to prove
That I can resist you
Tied up inside your Love Voodoo
Designed to Manipulate

Night after night I try to prove
That I can resist you
Tied up inside your Love Voodoo
Designed to Manipulate

 

 

“Out Of My Mind”

Light a candle
Lay flowers at the door
For those who were left behind
And the ones who’ve gone before
But here it comes now
Sure as silence follows rain
The taste of you upon my lips
The fingers in my brain
Ever gentle as it kills me where I lay
Who am I to resist?
Who are you to fail?Got to get you out of my mind
But I can’t escape from the feeling
As I try to leave the memory behind
Without you what’s left to believe in?

And I could be so sorry
For the way it had to go
But now I feel your presence
In a way I could not know
And I wonder
Do you ever feel the same
In whispering darkness
Do you ever hear my name?

Got to get you out of my mind
But I can’t escape from the feeling
As I try to leave the memory behind
Without you, what’s left to believe in?

How could you dare
To become so real
When you’re just a ghost in me

And I’ve got to get you out of my mind
But I can’t escape from the feeling
As I try to leave the memory behind
Without you, what’s left to believe in?

Here in the back of my mind

Deep in the back of my mind

 

“Pop Trash Movie”

Saw a close up of your pretty face
Overnight sensation
Smiling for cameras
From all around the world
If I rewind back to yesterday
And stop the tape there
No one knew who you were
But now they’re at your doorI’m living in a pop trash movie
We star together in every scene
We’ll all be famous for just a few minutes
Part of a celluloid dream

Watching slow-mo going frame-by-frame
Might have blurred my vision
Your life went flashing by
Where did it all go wrong?

I’m living in a pop trash movie
We star together in every scene
We’ll all be famous for fifteen minutes
Part of a celluloid dream

I’ll wait in the wings for you
I’ll read your lines to you
But now the script is final you know, it’s time to go
So we’ll have to say goodbye

I’m living in a pop trash movie
We star together in every scene
We’ll all be famous for those fifteen minutes
Part of a celluloid dream
We star in every scene
And it’s never quite what it seems

(Never)

I’m living in a pop trash movie
I know we’ll make it with that pop trash – yeah
We’ll all be famous for those fifteen minutes
Part of a celluloid dream, yeah

 

 

“(Reach Up For The) Sunrise”

Now the time has come
The music’s between us
Though the night seems young
Is at an end
Only change will bring
You out of the darkness
In this moment everything is born againReach up for the sunrise
Put your hands into the big sky
You can touch the sunrise
Feel the new day enter your life

Reach up for the sunrise
Put your hands into the big sky
You can touch the sunrise
Feel the new day enter your life

Now the fireball burns
We go round together
As the planet turns into the light
Something more than dreams to
Watch out for each other
Coz we know what it means to be alive

Reach up for the sunrise
Put your hands into the big sky
You can touch the sunrise
Feel the new day enter your life

Reach up for the sunrise
Put your hands into the big sky
You can touch the sunrise
Feel the new day enter your life

Feel the new day enter your life
Feel the new day

Reach up for the sunrise
Put your hands into the big sky
You can touch the sunrise
Feel the new day enter your life

Reach up for the sunrise
Put your hands into the big sky
You can touch the sunrise
Feel the new day enter your life

Reach up for the sunrise
Put your hands into the big sky
You can touch the sunrise
Feel the new day enter your life

 

 

“What Happens Tomorrow”

[Verse One:]
Child, don’t you worry
It’s enough you’re growing up in such a hurry
Brings you down, the news they sell you
To put in your mind that all mankind is a failure[Chorus:]
But nobody knows what’s gonna happen tomorrow
We try not to show how frightened we are
If you let me – I’ll protect you – however I can
You’ve got to believe it’ll be alright in the end
You’ve got to believe it’ll be alright again

[Verse Two:]
Fighting because we’re so close
There are times we punish those who we need the most
Though we can’t wait for a saviour
Only got ourselves to blame for this behaviour

[Chorus:]
And nobody knows what’s gonna happen tomorrow
We try not to show how frightened we are
It would seem lonely – if you were the only – star in the night?
You’ve got to believe it’ll be alright in the end
You’ve got to believe it’ll be alright again

[Guitar Solo]

[Final Chorus:]
And nobody knows what’s gonna happen tomorrow
So don’t let go, now we’ve come this far
Hold my hand please, understand me – we’re never alone

We’ve got to believe it’ll be alright in the end
(Nobody knows)
You’ve got to believe it’ll be alright my friend
(Nobody knows)
And yes we believe it’ll be alright again

 

 

 

“Last Man Standing”

Now an unexpected peace comes to the day
As the howling dimmed the fighting dies away
when the hanging dust is clearing from the air
you can just make out a lonely figure thereHe’s the last man standing on the track
He does not look down
He does not look back
He’s the last man standing on the track
You can’t hold him down
You can’t hold him back

He’s the last man standing on the track
He does not look down
He does not look back
He’s the last man standing on the track
You can’t hold him down
You can’t hold him back

he’s sorry for the wrong he has done
And he cries out for the anger for so long
All the cuts and bruises suffered
In whose name
oh but now is not the time to face his shame

He’s the last man standing on the track
He does not look down
He does not look back
He’s the last man standing on the track
You can’t hold him down
You can’t hold him back

the last man standing on the track
He does not look down
He does not look back
He’s the last man standing on the track
You can’t hold him down
You can’t hold him back

He’s the last man standing
Last man standing
He’s the last man standing

 

“Secret Oktober”

Wise on a birthday party in a world full of surprising fireworks
And sudden silence shhh
Lying on a strangers bed the new day breaks like a speeding train or an old friend
Ever expected but never knocking
Holding your own in a battered car all night parties cocktail bars
And smile when the butterfly escapes the killing jarSure eyes awake before the dancing is over wise or naked in secret Oktober

Freefall on a windy morning shore nothing but a fading track of footsteps
Could prove that you never been there
Spoken on a cotton cloud like the sound of gunshot taken by the wind
And lost in distant thunder racing on a shining plain
And tomorrow you’ll be content to watch as the lightning plays along the wires and you’ll wonder

Sure eyes awake before the dancing is over wise or naked in secret Oktober
Sure eyes awake before the dancing is over wise or naked in secret oktober

 

 

 

“A View To A Kill”

Meeting you, with a view to a kill
Face to face in secret places, feel the chill.
Night fall covers me, but you know the plans Im making,
Still oversea, could it be the whole world opening wide
A sacred why? , a mystery gaping inside
The weekends why?

Until we dance into the fire
That fatal kiss is all we need
Dance into the fire,
To fatal sounds of broken dreams
Dance into the fire,
That fatal kiss is all we need
Dance into the fire…..

Choice for you, is the view to a kill
Between the shades, assination standing still.
The first crystal tears, fall as snowflakes on your body
First time in years, to drench you skin with lovers rosy stain
A chance to find the phoenix for the flame,
A chance to die..

But can we dance into the fire
That fatal kiss is all we need
Dance into the fire
To fatal sounds of broken dreams
Dance into the fire
That fatal kiss is all we need
Dance into the fire
When all we see.. is the view to a kill
