It’s time to wake up
It’s time to change
Let’s get it started
I feel like there’s so much to rearrange
Come on, I need your help with this
Why don’t we get it started with a kiss?
If memory serves
Then why am I still waiting for it to return?
My head feels like it’s just about to slip
This morning is just a blur
Today lingers on like a bad year
I can feel it
I conceal it
I can feel it coming, the beginning of the twist
I can feel it
I conceal it
I can feel it coming, the beginning of the twist
I can feel it
I conceal it…
Beginning of the twist
I can feel it
I conceal it
I can feel it coming, the beginning of the twist
We get along well
We talk a lot
I made some promises, I guess that I totally forgot
Forgive me, my mind is (?)
Feels like somebody’s thrown it down the stairs
It’s not good enough
(I’ve heard these same excuses before)
I thought you knew enough about it
But you still want more
Today I don’t feel so ill
If only I could find the time, I want to kill
I can feel it
I conceal it
I can feel it coming, the beginning of the twist
I can feel it
I conceal it
I can feel it coming, the beginning of the twist
I can feel it
I conceal it…
Beginning of the twist
I can feel it
I conceal it
I can feel it coming, the beginning of the twist
I can feel it
I can feel it
I can feel it coming, the beginning of the twist
I can feel it
I can feel it
I can feel it coming, the beginning of the twist
I can feel it
I can feel it
I can feel it coming, the beginning of the twist
I can feel it
I can feel it
I can feel it coming, the beginning of the twist
I can feel it
I conceal it…
Beginning of the twist
I can feel it
I conceal it
I can feel it coming, the beginning of the twist
I can feel it
I conceal it
I can feel it coming, the beginning of the twist
I can feel it
I conceal it
I can feel it coming, the beginning of the twist

Sometimes it feels like we are walking backwards up a mountain
Sometimes it feels like we don't know which way to go
We made a promise to keep our mouths shut
Stay out of the way
That promise went too far
That promise went too far away
Walking backwards with nothing to say
Walking backwards, backwards to get out of the way
Sometimes it feels like we are stabbing in the dark with nothing to say
But when the lights go out, see no hear no speak no evil
Sometimes you're thinking that it's fine
At least we're both alive
Life's what you make it but trouble is never far
Trouble is never far away
Walking backwards with nothing to say
Walking backwards, backwards to get out of the way
Sometimes it feels like we've woken up in an empty room
All the doors are shut
I can see your breath and feel your fingertips
I reach for the light but I can't find the switch
What happens if we fall between all the tiny gaps that we exist within?
That was then
This is now
We will find our legs and keep moving around
Walking backwards with nothing to say
Walking backwards, backwards to get out of the way
Walking backwards with nothing to say
Walking backwards, backwards to get out of the way
Walking backwards with nothing to say
Walking backwards, backwards to get out of the way
Walking backwards with nothing to say
Walking backwards, backwards to get out of the way
To get out of the way
To get out of the way
To get out of the way
Walking backwards
Walking backwards
Walking backwards
To get out of the way

You put the color in my eyes
Every time I get to see your smile
I can't admit it but I think I really like it
Let's take stock of the shock
How can we review, how can we review?
We're getting tired anyway
Let's save it for tomorrow
You will never find anyone to come along and take you by surprise
Because you've had too much to think tonight
You will never find anyone to come along and take you by surprise
Because you've had too much to think tonight
I take risks but don't rely on them
I get the feeling that she likes to take them now and then
Am I right or am I wrong?
I wonder, should we carry on?
You will never find anyone to come along and take you by surprise
Because you've had too much to think tonight
You will never find anyone to come along and take you by surprise
Because you've had too much to think tonight
If you try to talk to me
I will stare you down
If you try to take over me
I will turn you around
You will never find anyone to come along and take you by surprise
Because you've had too much to think tonight
You will never find anyone to come along and take you by surprise
Because you've had too much to think tonight

I've been waiting by the radio for someone like you
But the people that are calling in today are few and far between
You were listening
Their word are .. the syllables slow
But ever day I have to call into this show
Last week I decided to give it a go
I caght your ear when I said
"I'm a man who sits at his desk
So I guess I've got nothing to lose at this request
I want a girl who doesn't like to dress to impress
A girl with a radio heart
A girl with a radio heart
We've never met but we've never been apart
A girl with a radio heart"
I took a risk and gambled on a voice I didn't know
Turned up my lonely radio
I leave my job, sell what I own
For someone who knows what the radio knows
Expose what the radio knows
I've been waiting by the radio for so long
Then you tuned in, not listening
Then I caught your ear when I said

Too much noise this morning
Like new buildings falling down
But you clap your hands because your dreams are boring
You get up and start throwing you thoughts around
The pavements crack and the cars are stalling
Everybody wears their frown upside down
This is not the world
This is not the air
This is not a crime
This is not a care
Disgusting and dirty
We spoiled ourselves completely
We used to take it easy, humble and discretely
The pavements crack and the cars are stalling
Everybody wears their frown upside down
This is not the world
This is not the air
This is not a crime
This is not a care
This is not the world
This is not the air
This is not a crime
This is not a care
This is not the world
This is not the world
This is not the world
This is not the world
Too much noise this morning
Like new buildings falling down
The pavements crack and the cars are stalling
Everybody wears their frown upside down
This is not the world
This is not the air
This is not a crime
This is not a care
This is not the world
This is not the air
This is not a crime
This is not a care
This is not the world
This is not the world
This is not the world
This is not the world

The nights are getting longer and the days are getting warmer
And so are you
Warmer on the trail to create a fairy tale or two
Your story's so hypnotic, charismatic
That I think I'm in love with you
I think I'm in love with you
I didn't mean it
I changed my mind already
Plus I had a bad feeling about it anyway
Don't cheapen yourself for the sale of the century
I didn't mean it
I've changed my mind
Take some tracing paper and go and draw the faces of the people at work
They will leave, turn into nightlife
Stay in and relax as they go berserk
Why don't they go berserk?
I didn't mean it
I changed my mind already
Plus I had a bad feeling about it anyway
Don't cheapen yourself for the sale of the century
I didn't mean it
I've changed my mind
I didn't mean it
I changed my mind already
Plus I had a bad feeling about it anyway
Don't cheapen yourself for the sale of the century
I didn't mean it
I've changed my mind

She broke your heart yesterday
It tore you apart when she turned the other way
You came to me and I didn't know what to say
But now I do
I've got something to share with you
I know it's hard to bear
Difficult to watch, hard not to care
When it means so much
And it's hard to bear but not impossible as such
Hard to bear but not impossible as such
You're not always gonna miss her touch
You lock yourself in your room
You keep the curtains closed to help seal in the gloom
Your bedclothes still stink of her stale perfume
But you hope the smell doesn't vanish too soon
I know it's hard to bear
Difficult to watch, hard not to care
When it means so much
And it's hard to bear but not impossible as such
Hard to bear but not impossible as such
You're not always gonna miss her touch

The city's getting bigger but everybody slowly moves away
Your accents gets thicker
The plot is getting thinner every day and planes are getting higher
The oil is getting deep below our feet
The sun is on fire
At least that is the word out on the street
The dust will never settle, we're always on the run
The dust will never settle
Work is never done
The lights are burning brighter
Everybody has a number and a price
This tide is getting higher
We're all drowning in a world of good advice
You believe in short of nothing
Cos nothing cannot be taken away
The sun is on fire and this city will be gone within a day
This city will be gone within a day
The dust will never settle, we're always on the run
The dust will never settle
Work is never done
The dust will never settle, we're always on the run
The dust will never settle
Work is never done
Go from here
I'll take you down
Take you deeper out of town
If we ever make it out of here
I love this city but it's burning to the ground
It's burning to the ground
The dust will never settle, we're always on the run
The dust will never settle
The dust will never settle, we're always on the run
The dust will never settle
Work is never done
Work is never done
Work is never
Work is never done

If I hear one more person talking about these days
Saying it's hard in this day and age
I will explode
How do they know what it was like two thousand years ago?
Look at our cousins in the sea
They seem to have it together
They seem to be free
But do they know what's going down on the land?
Because they're down in the water with their heads in the sand
We broke up the time and put the pieces in a different order
We look around
Let me break it down
We gather everybody
And look at what we found
You try to tell me that you don't feel ashamed
It's nearly finished but it's not over yet
And the facts have been so easy to forget
Do you know when we go over your head
I don't mean to offend
But you will never understand
We broke up the time and put the pieces in a different order
We look around
Let me break it down
We gather everybody
And look at what we found
We broke up the time and put the pieces in a different order
(Broke up the time and put the pieces in a different order)
We look around
Let me break it down
We gather everybody
And look at what we found

You say the same things every night to the same face every night
You wear the same clothes every night to the same plave every night
You're looking forward never looking back
Headed down a one way track
One for sorrow
Two for joy
We're going out tonight
We're going out tonight
We're going out tonight
Everything's changing today
Getting further and further away
State you're in, sink or swim
Plans you've made, plans you've made
We've never made a difference but tonight it will be different
It's opened up in front of us and it can change for every one of us
I'll take a look into your private life
I'll take a look and I will make it mine
With the excitement of a child
We're going out tonight
We're going out tonight
We're going out tonight
Everything's changing today
Getting further and further away
State you're in, sink or swim
Plans you've made, plans you've made
And you know that it's easy to get lost in these dark places
And you know that it's easy to get lost in these dark places
But you never ever know
Never ever know what you might find
Everything's changing today
Getting further and further away
State you're in, sink or swim
Plans you've made, plans you've made

Look at that
What a treat
Like winter without any sleet
It's getting late
But we're still on our feet
Let's stay awake so I can hear you speak
Look at that
What a shame
So many words follow his name
None of them are complimentary
None of them are anything but grief
We make it harder
Harder than it needs to be
But it makes us happy
Like happy used to be
The week is long but the strong are the weak
It's getting late but we're still on our feet
Let's stay awake so I can hear you speak
Let's got to bed but let's not go to sleep
Look at that what a shock
Didn't care if you were ready or not
What a boy
What a fool
What a cheat but you can tell that there is love in my deceit
We make it harder
Harder than it needs to be
But it makes us happy
Like happy used to be
The week is long but the strong are the weak
It's getting late but we're still on our feet
Let's stay awake so I can hear you speak
Let's got to bed but let's not go to sleep
The week is long but the strong are the weak
It's getting late but we're still on our feet
Let's stay awake so I can hear you speak
Let's got to bed but let's not go to sleep
Let's got to bed but let's not go to sleep
Let's got to bed but let's not go to sleep

I'm not in love with the plans you've made
You know I'm afraid and you play on it
But I'm tempted to take whatever I can make from it
My mouth is open but my eyes are closed
You're feeding me lines that are a hundred years old
There's a place at your table and I'm hungry for more of it
Apart from the questions
What's going on in your mind?
See what you want to see
See what you want to see
But don't reflect what you can't see in me
See what you want to see
My memory's fading and I'm feeling faint
I wake in the morning and I can't see straight
I'll roll with the punches and make the most of it
Apart from the questions
What's going on in your mind?
See what you want to see
See what you want to see
But don't reflect what you can't see in me
See what you want to see
See what you want to see
See what you want to see
But don't reflect what you can't see in me
See what you want to see
See what you want to see
See what you want to see
But don't reflect what you can't see in me
Don't reflect what you can't see in me
