Making sense of what I've heard
And what is on my mind
Well don't look down cos it's far to fall
Oh yeah

Count the hours face the fear
It's all you need these days
We're past the post and through the door

We hail commercial suicide
Kiss the love you leave behind
And let it bother you
Well you do what it takes to get what you can


Last night I thought about her
... love and what I do
It's hanging over me
I'm sure to break your loving heart

I'm down and take a walk down a sugar coated sonified
I've been hanging around for hours
Staring at your holy ground
Ooooooh

...
I might've known that you'd be tearing up the photographs
Oooooh

At sight of all I've done been taken for higher ground
... china dolls and better times
This side of life...

. . .



Before the time of the morning sandman
I can find my way around
Soon be here at the borderline I guess
Armageddon coming down

And here lies a pretty state again
It's time to make a move on
Cos in three days I'll be out of here
And it's not a day too soon

Firelight, the light of love, burns
Turns to ashes in your hand
So to bed by the morning light I guess
I'm awake and understand

Set sail for St. Petersburg
Making use of my time
Cos in three days I'll be out of here
And it's not a day too soon

Head out to a better life
I can get a job, settle down
I'm full of love, of a full of feeling
I can't stand the here and now

Leave town for pity's sake you know
It's time to make a move on
Cos in three days I'll be out of here
And it's not a day too soon
Yeah, three days I'll be out of here

. . .



Honey found time costs
You never learnt to economise
You look around and before you know
It's gone, turned to dust

There she goes
Plays the part of sorrow
In the garden running free
Steady nerves, taking all the hard knocks
You've only got yourself
Falling out of love
Making other plans

Lady knows how to go
Making eyes in a photograph
But we all know you're a lonely girl
All sad and lost

There she goes
Walking out the front door
You've only got yourself in deep
Daily life driven to a cold heart
The only god you know is greed

People in my head it goes
Break up the band
Man overboard
See Hollywood
Run out of cash
Get out of bed
Call off the dogs
Take out the trash
Stare at the sun
Man on the tracks
Cat out the bag
Sit on the fence
You got blood on your hands
Run out of luck
Lay down your arms
Curled on your bed
And then do it all again

Are times so lost
You wear the look of a modern girl
You wander round like a loaded gun
Armed for the cause

There she goes
Walking out the front door
You've only got yourself in deep
Lord knows I closed your eyes for so long

. . .



Hello my honey
My beautiful friend
It's hard to imagine
It's come to an end
But the more I remember
The more I forget
Living in fear of what hasn't come yet

Oh the angels are calling
They've shot to the heart
Ominous frictions
Will tear us apart
And the villains of sorrow
Will always remain
Follow the future in silence again

No tears to cry
All that hurt
Or leave tonight
All that hurt

Oh the angels are calling
They've shot to the heart
Ominous frictions
Will tear us apart
And the villains of sorrow
Will always remain
Follow the future in silence again

No tears to cry
All that hurt
Or leave tonight
Before I turn
My babe, your bleed fills my heart
Or leave tonight

. . .

Coffee In The Pot

[No lyrics]

. . .



There's damage out there some place
You got to step aside
Where are you going that decision is made
That's how it started
Too hot and dirty inside
Contain your feelings when there's nowhere to go

Follow all the signs and they'll lead us away
And it's all good stuff for ... around the world today

Turn off your television
Don't be the hatchet man
His time has come and now I'm ready to go
Cut up and fear
Tap into the nervous system
Retrieve your message tell me what do I know

Follow all the signs and they'll lead us away
But it's all good stuff for ... around the world today

Tried on the feeding time
The truth is
It's going to get you and won't let go
I'm isolated
I'm going nowhere fast
There's no direction so where do I go

Follow all the signs and they'll lead us away

. . .



It's a kick in the teeth
Can make it hard to smile
I'm turning to a dirty dastard style
What... there ain't no use in crying

So I just keep on trying
And the heartache would be fun
But I just can't get my head around what you want
Oh yeah

Killing time waiting for tomorrow
Well I can't sleep take my pills of sorrow
Well I don't ...
...

Well I just keep on trying
And the heartache would be fun
But I just can't get my head round what you
What you want

Well kicking teeth
Broken glass went flying
It's a fucking cheek...
You cut me down but there ain't no use in crying

So I just keep on trying
The heartache would be fun
But I just can't get my head round what you
Oh, what you want

What you want
Don't know what you want
What you want
Don't know what you want

. . .



The loneliness at times
I can feel it open wide
I can wander through the past
And believe it for a while

We were younger
Oh the way you turned my head, ooooh

The things we used to have
Are fading all too fast
Like a castle in the sand
Well some things they're meant to last

We were younger
Oh the way you turned my head, ooooh

I wonder if I'd care
If I saw you again
Would you hurt me like before
Or would happiness be there

We were younger

. . .



I hold it all to the love in her eyes
Lord knows I can feel her, see her, in my mind
And her spoken words ring through my head
Though I'm lost, I can hear them calling me there

Hey, the song, do you feel (feel)
Leave your light on through the night
Love (love) and loss so dear
You know it's a long way home

Well a lonely road to the promised land
May be long but I see the end some day
To broken lives on the mountain side
Out in the cold, kinda hurried shifting sands

They're in the other world to where you lie
Pulling your heart then the ravens say goodbye

Hey, the song, do you feel?
And leave your light on through the night
Loss, from .... so dear
