We're laughing in the face of fear again
We close our eyes and watch it disappear
Stepping on the stones as we sink in
We jump into the fires of hopelessness, forever

Cause it's falling again, catch me
We've swallowed the pills and the pain
It's falling again, but no one sees
It's a 21st century meltdown

Submitted to the fears of loneliness
Degenerate and jumping off the edge

(Muffled screaming)

had a bad hair day
had a bad hair day
had a bad hair day
had a bad hair day

(muffled screaming)

had a bad hair day
had a bad hair day
had a bad hair day
had a bad hair day
had a bad hair day
had a bad hair day
had a bad hair day
had a bad hair day

Fading out
Holding out
The innocent way
Loves run out
Left this world inside of me

Crying out
Screaming out
As the echoes within
The cat is out
No more secrets left within

The feelings gone
You swallowed the sun
One by one
The bolder has come
The feelings gone
You swallowed the sun
And wave goodbye to love again

Staring down
Tears roll down
And now that you feed
A Broken cloud

Gone for days
Cut the chase
Bite the bullet time
Ease the pain

Give me something new she said
Tell me something new instead

Fornicate
A love to break

I know we're all so self obssessed, so materialistic, over-sexed
I know we're all so self assured, burn a hole right through this perfect world

Blown away
Learn to taste
Find the essence now
Shake the frame

Give me something new she said

I can't dress so I can't dance to disco
I can't move and I hate the way my feet go
I can't dress but she thinks I'm on the clothes show
Why can't she see?

It's so sad, she always sees the good side
Life sucks when you're lying on the inside
She's so sweet she covers me with honey
Why can't she see?

Disco!
I can't dance to disco
Disco!
White suits and gigolos

I'm a whore, paranoid and schizo

I've called you so many times today
And I guess it's all true what your girl-friends say
That you don't ever want to see me again
And your brother's gonna kill me and he's six feet ten
I guess you'd call it cowardice
But I'm not prepared to go on like this

I can't, I can't, I can't stand losing
I can't, I can't, I can't stand losing
I can't, I can't, I can't, I can't stand losing you

Yeah, we're gonna make mistakes
Politicians shake and fakes
Backs against the wall
Feel the world about to blow

Yeah, I wanna stay in

Were gonna turn it all around
Find new trees on better ground
Taste the easy life
Can't you feel it's gonna blow?

Yeah, I wanna stay in

Growin' old with you
What a thing to do
Growin' old with you
Jus what I'm gonna do?

Thinking back to '86

Give me a home, give me a home
When cider strips me to the bone
Give me a home, give me a home
It's just the world that I create
New electrodes on my head
Bloodsuckers in my bed
Cider strips me to the bone
It's just the world that I create

I just blame myself,
Just blame myself
Just blame myself
Just blame myself

Out of my mind, out of my mind,
Give us a bullet every time

You and I used to meet the same
Wrapped together in cellophane
We can try to get away
Drift forever, lost in

Space... (We're getting better all the time)
Space... (We're getting better all the time)
Space... (We're getting better all the time)
Safe... (We're getting better all the time)

You can try to change my day
Lock me up and you watch me fade
You and I can emulate
Drift together, lost in

Gonna learn how to think cause i'm drowning in sin,
Just wanna taste that cinammon skin.
I've gotta learn how to cry,
Taste a tear roll by.
Cause there's no sense in self destruction,
Emily loved him, Emily loved him.

CHORUS
You cut away the disease,
You pure the air i breathe (need).
You came and healed my disease again,
Now the light comes shining in.

December, why does it always rain
Why does it never snow

Tempers, pulling you round again

It only takes one word to bring you round
But nothing can last forever
It's getting better all the time now
I can feel it again

Falling, dropping like a stone
You wish you could fund your friends

Talking, hearing the same old news

It only takes one word to bring you round
Coz nothing can last forever

Keep my feet on the sand
Gotta take the hand that guides me there
As I reach, do they stare?
Do they feel the same way?

I wanna be here!
I wanna be here, I see the face
Look back and then it calls to me
Wanna stay here, here
Just wanna be free
(Wanna be free)

Could it be in my head?
As I kneel, as I turn to face, cover me
If it falls high above
It takes us all away someday

I wanna be here!

It's hard for me to comprehend
Holding on with broken hands
But who will understand
Wallow in the acid rain
What's in store for us today
It's never gonna feel the same
I'm waiting for an angel now
To carry me above the clouds

Cause it's a long way home for the summer
And it's a long way up without a ladder
It's a long way home
And it's a long way down

Swallowing the bitter taste

dododododo......

Waking up at twelve in my clothes again,
Feel my head explode from a night of gin,
Another night out late.
I don't wanna drink,
Don't wanna be a clown,
Gotta get my feet back on the ground
Before it pulls me in

How come we've ended up like this?
And who's gonna catch me
When I'm coming down to hit the ground again?

Bu bu bu bu, bu bu bu bu
Come back in,
As love get's thin and leaves you dry.
Found that space,
Only to owe you back inside.

You're fading like someone,
Who's given up on life.
And all you've ever left behind,
The scars that burn inside.
You're wishing for someone,
A taste of something better.
Lose the fear.

Bu bu bu bu, Lose the fear.
Bu bu bu bu, Lose the fear.
Bu bu bu bu,

Till it came,

It mkaes no difference when it's fun
Senses shot away who gives a damn
Who I am
I'm opaque
Left to stand out in the crowd
Insecurities come flooding in, the hooks are in
But I'm OK

Don't you see we're in skin deep
Cut me free again and watch me bleed

Turning frequencies inside
Find the perfect place to be alive, finalize
I'm opaque
Substitute the way you feel

Telepathic, social addicts
Interactive to the masses
Left to our defenses as we change the colours
Turn the grey skies back to blue again

Oxidize
Oxidize
Parasites the size of my eyes
Oxidize
We oxidize

Telescopic, pornographic
All invited, design the habits
Left to our defenses as we change the colours
Turn the grey skies back to blue again

Oxidize
Oxidize

Aye aye aye aye
Feels like fire
I'm so in love with you

Dreams are like angels
They keep bad at bay, bad at bay
Love is the light scaring darkness away

I'm so in love with you
Purge the soul
Make love your goal

The power of love
A force from above
Cleaning my soul

Flame on burn desire, love
With tounges of fire
Purge the soul
Make love your goal

I'll protect you from the hooded claw

I think I'm coming round
Coming round to way of thinking
Trying to find the ground
Somewhere new to stop us slipping

Always , always straight back down
Kicking out the fool
Theres no sense in us going under
Holding on to you
Trying to swim but we're treading water

Always , always straight back down

I think that you're the one , the colour never runs
A hand that heals me over , over today

Don't you think it's sad?
Happiness is dead, our rain has gone
Building up the walls
Just to see them fall away

Which way should I go?
Further up as I float
Trying to understand
Keep my feet on the ground
And live again
I'm coming down, I see myself
On the sand, I walk again
Through this land of rain

I think we know
My conscience grows
Within myself two different roads
So far from home, again

Feeling so alone
Complexion white as stone
Looking for a getaway

Broken by the strain
And constant rearrangement
Anything is possible

Yeah
Anything is possible
Yeah

Loosing control of my soul (song?) but you don't know
Help me breathe (bleed?)
Set me free
Loosing control of my soul (song?) but you don't know
Help me breathe (bleed?)
Set me free

Loosing all effect
Cause feelings in descent

Flying down, feeling the pressure again
It's no more than we deserve,
Eyes close to golden sun,

Tearing it down,
Burning bridges away there's no return now,
Leaving home today ...

We turn to face the storm,
Just a sign of life to bring us home ...

Turning around, trying to face the strange,
It's no more than we deserve,
No more words to say

Coming around, there's no distance to go,

They cover me in the clothes you see
And I'm suffocating I try to breathe
Only here to let them know
Fading out as the hours go
Cover me if I walk away
Tripping out, I'm in hyper space
Till the will it begins to break
Feel the wall as it starts to shake

Too late, I know
I'm getting deeper, oh yeah
Falling away

Goodbye all, I'm in heaven
Hear me now, desperation
Reaching out, arms wide open

Searching through broken pieces
Same old news, the more I bleed
Crucified again, the more we choose
Sacrificed again, the more we lose

But he said
I will be there if you will come
To give myself, to save my soul
I will be there if you believe
The more I wait, the more I bleed
The more I bleed

Twisted hands, worn and broken
See the man, across the heat
Holding back the blade, he can believe

Lying on a bed
Flying in my head
Wishing for the sun
Don't let the rain man come
Open up the sky
Stop living in denial
Cut the ropes on me
Feel myself float free

Say hello to the sun when the morning comes
Wave goodbye to the rain, it only brings you pain
Say hello to the sun when the morning comes

We're climbing up the walls
Clutching at your straw
Waving to be seen
Holding on to dreams
