Eskimo Joe Album

I will come
Come to comfort you
I'm coming

Hey, hey, I know it wasn't New York
Where I lost my mind.
Hey, hey, I know I must have left it
It was back home all the time.

And where were you while we lay
So drunk that we died?
Hey, Hey, I know, but who could blame us?
Under pressure
And I know
I know I should have stayed in bed.

Hey, hey, I know it's just a toothache
I won't even cry.
Hey, hey, the candy store prescriptions
All lined up in the aisles.

And where were you while we lay
Shipwrecked in denial?
Hey, hey, it's just a pill to help you
Sleep right through the night.
I should have stayed in bed.
And I know
I should have stayed in bed.

I know I should have stayed in bed because
Tomorrow's gonna be another party.
You stay too long until the lights get lonely.
Oh, tomorrow's gonna be another party
Wait too long til we
All stay out of the sun.
Sun.
I know, I know, it wasn't New York

Black fingernails, red wine
I wanna make you, all mine
A lot of people, underground
You wanna get there
You gotta go straight down

o-oh o-oh, straight down
o-oh o-oh

There's a culture, everywhere
Smoke clouds, hang in the air
So loud, can't hear you talk
You and I,
Should take a walk downtown

o-oh o-oh, straight down
o-oh o-oh, downtown
o-oh o-oh, straight down
o-oh o-oh

The argument over God, continues
In this house
All of us stand and point our fingers
At the ground
All of us stand and point our fingers

o-oh o-oh, straight down
o-oh o-oh

Red letter day, black heart
It's gonna tear you, all apart
So loud, can't hear you call
You and I,
Are gonna fall straight down

o-oh o-oh, straight down
o-oh o-oh, downtown
o-oh o-oh, straight down
o-oh o-oh

The argument over God, continues
In this house
All of us stand and point our fingers
At the ground

The argument overall, continues
In this house
All of us stand and point our fingers

o-oh o-oh, straight down
o-oh o-oh, straight down
o-oh o-oh, straight down
o-oh o-oh

Black fingernails, red wine
I wanna make you, all mine
A lot of people, underground
You wanna get there
You gotta go straight down

The argument over God, continues
In this house
All of us stand and point our fingers
At the ground

The argument overall continues
In this house
All of stand and point our fingers

o-oh o-oh, straight down
o-oh o-oh, straight down
o-oh o-oh, straight down
o-oh o-oh

A handful of sand
Is all that you grab
As you're watching the money fall
Right through your hands
It took such a long, long time now
To build on demand
But this is a war in the cradle of
This modern man

Does this mean we're breaking up? [x3]
Like stones again? [x2]

A mouthful of glass
That cuts up your words
You better watch that nothing's falling out
Watching nothing is heard

Does this mean we're breaking up? [x3]
Like stones again?

It took a long, long, long, long time
To reverse, like a curse
It took a long, long, long, long time
Took long, long, long, long time

And these are the words in the pages of
And this is the law of unspoken love
And this is a war in the cradle of
This modern man

Does this mean we're breaking up? [x8]
Like stones again? [x8]

I've been waiting for too long,
Staring at the sun
Waiting for the night to come,
So I can get things done

I can't wait for this no more,
My eyes have come undone
If my star will ever rise,
Let it be the only one

And if I see you waiting for the setting sun,
It will never come
And if it ever comes, you're forever young
You're forever young

Ice is just a remedy for pain and rising heat,
Hold it in your hands and watch the puddles form around your feet
And if you drink the water,
It might just stop the pain
From dreaming of the fever drowning holes around your name

And if I see you waiting for the setting sun,
It will never come
And if it ever comes, you're forever young,
You're forever young

If your scared about the future,
I'm scared about the past
And if your feeling ill, it's cause the world is spinning fast
Yeah you're staring at the sun,
Yeah you better all hold on
And watch the sky become the ground

Forever Young

And if I see you waiting for the setting sun,
It will never come
And if it ever comes, you're forever young,
You're forever young

Drag me by the ankles
To the bottom of the ocean
There I'll stay forever
Until you come back from England

The London Bombs

I stayed up forever
Tried to call your number
But you were lost forever
In the early days of winter

The London Bombs

Dirty little town on the Thames is calling you away

I stay up forever
Try to find the answer
In the sun I wait for you

The London Bombs

Dirty little town on the Thames is calling you away

The London Bombs

Sarah
Won't you tell me your name
I've been waiting here for hours
In the garden by the flowers
You're so shy
So just open your eyes
The boys all form a line
To be written out in time
A long, long, long, long time ago

Emergency
I think I'm falling apart
Emergency
I think I am losing the fight
And I don't know if I can do it
I don't know if I can try
I don't know if anyone asked me the reason I lied
She sighed

Sarah
Is she your new best friend?
One day it will end, you know it will
You're so shy
So just let it fall apart
Let it stumble in the dark
With the razors in your heart
A long, long, long, long time ago

Emergency
I think I'm falling apart
Emergency
I think I am losing the fight
And I don't know if I can do it
I don't know if I can try
I don't know if anyone asked me the reason I lied
She sighed

Emergency
I think I'm falling apart
Emergency
I think I am losing the fight
And I don't know if I can do it
I don't know if I can try
I don't know if anyone asked me the reason I lied
She sighed

This is pressure
Stay away from me
If life is bigger, then what do you see
You're no better, no better than me
If this is pressure, show me
How you bleed

There is no romance in suffocation
The walls fall down like your expectations
You want to scream and you want to shout
But you've built up steam and you can't let out
This is pressure

No you won't see me
Just ask your brother what he now believes
You're no better, no better than me
If this is pressure
Tell me what do you see

There is no romance in suffocation
The words fall out, like you're out of patience
You want to scream and you want to shout
But you've built up steam you and can't let out
This is pressure

Pressure Now

Pressure come on down

There is no romance in suffocation
The walls fall down like your expectations
You want to scream and you want to shout
But you've built up steam and you can't let out
There is no romance in suffocation

The words fall out like your out of patience
You want to scream and you want to shout
But you can't let out, no and you can't let out
This is pressure
This is pressure
This is pressure
So this is pressure

This room is like the belly of a ghost
Swaying to the rhythm of a heart that is now lost
So tell me that I'm wrong
Tell me that tehre's a consequence
Or do you still remember me alive
Beating like a drum

I had a lot to drink last night
Now I'm feeling old
Is there anything that I can buy
That I have not sold
So tell me that I'm gone
From your state of mind
Do you still remember me alive
Do you still remember me alive
Beating like a ...

Drum that beats upon the floor
A shadow underneath teh door
I don't want to shoot this gun
But everything just stops

Like the beat of a drum

So tell me that I'm wrong
Tekk ne that there's a consequence
Or do you still remember me alive
Beating like a drum

[No lyrics]

With lips that kiss
Words of teeth
And I was wrong
To let you know
So drink your coffee
And catch your bus
Cause I just want
My suicide girl

My social suicide girl
Poison in the wall
Razors in the apple core

She's my social suicide girl
She'll catch you in her way
Until everyone just stayes away

See these words
Sharp as knives
And I just want
To let it go
Seven stiches
In my head
And I just want my suicide girl

Oh girl
If her kiss is deep
Then you'l sleep
Gravestones lie
And futures die

You live so much
It's like you're dying
You can't get up
Your body's trying
You build so tall, it's like you're flying
But rocks will fall, the sky keeps climbing

You're gonna lose everything

How does it feel

I'm not scared so much of trying
But don't look up, you might start flying

You're gonna lose everything
How does it feel
Oh, how does it feel
Oh no

I want to know
I want to know
How does it feel

You're gonna lose everything

How does it feel

You live so much it's like you're dying
You can't get up, but your body's trying
You build so tall, it's like you're flying
But rocks will fall
The sky keeps climbing
