Under The Angels...
The lyrics for the tracks on the album are listed below.
Two mountains
With tiny feet I take small steps
Careful to walk as if on eggs
I find it hard to see the ground from way up here
With tired hands I talk to you
Look in my eyes they're talking too
Why do we have to be so cool when we're so near?
Why must we run so fast?
Just to stay where we are,
Like two mountains, we are closer to heaven than hell
Sometimes I feel so close to you
And then I'm sure you feel it too
What is it I'm supposed to do to make it clear?
Why must we run so fast?
Just to stay where we are,
Like two mountains, we are closer to heaven than hell
Parallel lives
Have you ever had one of those days
When nothing goes the way you planned it?
Fate takes you down a different road
When you look in the mirror
It's another face that looks out at you
You forget everything you've been told
I frighten myself when I see what's inside of me
The parallel lives leave me mystified
Did I ask the right questions?
Did I get the right the right answers?
Am I living the right life inside?
Like living out part of a dream
When you never really know for certain
What is real and what is not
And no matter how much you believe
That the day you went is the day you started
You can never be sure of what you've got
I frighten myself when I see what's inside of me
The parallel lives leave me mystified
Did I ask the right questions?
Did I get the right answers?
Am I living the right life inside?
I'll dance to the rhythm of confusion
I'll dance to set my mind at ease
I'll dance till my feet can't take the weight of me
I'll dance till I get some relief
I frighten myself when I see what's inside of me
The parallel lives leave me mystified
Did I ask the right questions?
Did I get the right answers?
Am I living the right life inside?
Did I ask the right questions?
Did I get the right answers?
Am I living the right life inside?
I'll dance to the rhythm of confusion
I'll dance to set my mind at ease
I'll dance till my feet can't take the weight of me
I'll dance till I get some relief
I frighten myself,
Nothing goes the way you planned it
I frighten myself,
With the parallel lives.
I never liked the way you looked
I wish I knew why I chose you
You weren't at all what I was looking for,
Your nose was too long, your eyes too wide,
But I couldn't see that when you smiled.
All those pretty words fell from your mouth
How could I not listen? How could I be so hard?
I never liked the way you looked from behind
But when you turned around, well I must have gone blind
And you
You were the darkness in my days
You sent all that's good away
And I want you to know I'm much happier now you're gone
Now you're gone.
And I believed you when you said no-one could love me
I was not the loving kind
and I never stopped to think you weren't so special yourself
Cos I didn't seem to mind.
All those nights on my own
I can't believe I wasted so much time and love on you
I never liked the way you looked from behind
But when you turned around, well I must have gone blind
Well I must have gone blind.
Cos you
You were the darkness in my days
You sent all that's good away
And I want you to know I'm much happier now you're gone
And you
You were the cloud in my blue sky
You're a storm that passed me by
And it's good that you know my life's better since you moved on
Now you're gone
And you
You were the darkness in my days
You sent all that's good away
And I want you to know I'm much happier now you're gone
And you
You were the cloud in my blue sky
You're a storm that passed me by
And it's good that you know my life's better since you moved on
Now you're gone
Under the angels
I look to you for guidance
Some kind of light to follow in the dark
I give to you this feeling, freely
It's a gift from the heart
And I don't mind if the cold wind cuts my skin
When I run to you I can shut the door behind me
You call me in and you know just where to find me
We touch like stars, we live just under the angels
We bathe in the moons fire, just under the angels
Well here I am naked, childlike
In your arms
In all my dreams never could I realise emotions or demands
But you don't mind if I don't achieve perfection
And it seems you're blind to what I don't want to see
And it's in your eyes I have found a new reflection
We touch like stars, we live just under the angels
We bathe in the moons fire, just under the angels
We touch like stars
We bathe in the moons fire
(And we love this love)
We touch like stars under the angels
Bad dream
Look at all those fish they're dying in the water
Drowning in the poison we're flooding in our seas
Take a look around you are you happy to be living
In this lonely destructive society?
Wake me up
From out of the darkness
Wake me up
When it's safe to believe
Feels like I'm lost in a bad dream
Full of lies and deception
I'm lost in a bad dream
Diving in a black hole
Look at him he's fighting for some dark obscure religion
Cry for her she's losing every inch of pride she knows
And for all those children they have no safe place to play in
There's a time bomb ticking where there was a heart of gold
Wake me up
When everything's clearer
Wake me up
When the truth is the truth
Feels like I'm lost in a bad dream
Full of lies and deceptions
I'm lost in a bad dream
Diving in a black hole
Everybody's trying to reach some state of mind
Everybody's got their own ideas
Seems this world is getting so self gratifying
All it's down to is me and mine me and mine me and mine me and mine
Me and mine me and mine
Here we are living in some kind of writers paradise
Watching as the pain fills up yet another page
Is there no way left for us to change the course we're taking
Like a blind man heading off an empty stage
Wake me up
Shake me till I don't know down from up
Wake me up
When it's safe to believe
Feels like I'm lost in a bad dream
Full of lies and deception
I'm lost in a bad dream
Diving in a black hole
Life in a bottle
One straight road of shady bars
Tall fat glasses you get lost in for hours
Smoking guns and goldfish eyes
One more then another I hear you cry
So many friends, do you remember them all?
They got up and left when they heard you fall
Take one long look up, it's not the way you planned at the start
Life is a bottle of laughs
Life in a bottle won't last.
Late night buses drive on by
Caught in the headlights: you don't know why
No spare seats in your best mate's car
Better ask some questions on who you are.
Nowhere to run, nowhere to turn
You don't even know how you got home...
Take one long look up, it's not the way you planned at the start
Life is a bottle of laughs
Life in a bottle won't last.
So many friends, do you remember them all?
They got up and left when they heard you fall
Take one long look up, it's not the way you planned at the start
Life is a bottle of laughs
Life in a bottle won't last.
It won't last
It won't last...
Shouting at the big wall
Well I watched you on your way up
You were climbing up the ladder
And I don't know if you saw me
I was hanging from the rafters
I could see her
She was crying
When you said you didn't love her were you lying?
She was shouting at the big wall
Please let him fall, let him fall, let him fall
(Back into her arms)
Now you don't deserve an answer
To the questions you have given me
I would rather see you failing
With the way that you're behaving
You were younger
She was brighter
She was everything: you said she was to die for
Now she's shouting at the big wall
Please
You know I thought that I really knew you, but looking through you
I saw life as one big ugly circus
Where's the sweetness I saw in your face, has it found a new place?
You left me here screaming
let him fall, let him fall, let him fall
(Back into her arms)
let him fall, let him fall, let him fall
(Back into her arms)
I could see her
She was crying
When you said you didn't love her were you lying?
She's shouting at the big wall
Please
You were younger
She was brighter
She was everything: you said she was to die for
She's shouting at the big wall
Please let him fall, let him fall, let him fall
(Back into her arms)
let him fall, let him fall, let him fall
(Back into her arms)
Shouting at the big wall...
Don't let me sleep
Here in my life
There is room for another lonely song
Can I lose myself inside your sails?
Left by the sun
I've been shivering in this frozen land
Can I rest beside your fire tonight?
While we're here don't let the night fall over me
Now we're here, don't let me sleep too long
Never a change in the wind blowing through my open door
I've been banished to live on a distant shore
Where I will be with you always
In your arms.
While we're here don't let the night fall over me (Don't sleep too long)
Now we're here, don't let me sleep too long
While we're here don't let the night fall over me (Don't sleep too long)
Now we're here, don't let me sleep too long
Here in my life
There is room for another lonely song
Can I lose myself inside your sails?
Without love
Down the steps my feet are travelling
My hands are holding steady but
I catch my breath but loose my balance
And I don't know which way is up
There's no arrows pointing this way
There's no warning saying stop
Who can stop a guided missile?
Where's it aiming I forgot
Through the door, round the back
It's a subtle attack
Creeping close to the edge
I remember you said
Life has no meaning if you don't have love
Don't have love
Give any reason but it's not enough
It's not enough
Without love
What am I doing here in your life?
Should I go you'll have to say
All roads seem to lead to romance
But your eyes they look away
Through the door, round the back
It's a subtle attack
Creeping close to the edge
I remember you said
Life has no meaning if you don't have love
Don't have love
Give any reason but it's not enough
It's not enough
Without love
Without love
Without love
Without love
Life has no meaning if you don't have love
Don't have love
Give any reason but it's not enough
It's not enough
Without love
Joan of Arc
What is your life with me?
I hope it is all you believed it would be
And I try so hard to love you the way
Your mother would have wanted you to be loved
And I do love you
But I need to be needed too
I'll be here when its cold and dark
I'll be waiting to be your joan of arc
I'll do anything to be your rock
To be with you in the rain
And I know that it's hard to ask
It would be like coming home at last
I could feel you love me just as much
If you let me share your pain
I'll never know the truth
It seems I'm always last to know
What you've been going through
And I'll follow you to be close to you
Even though you try to shut me right out
But I still love you
I'll be here when its cold and dark
I'll be waiting to be your joan of arc
I'll do anything to be your rock
To be with you in the rain
And I know that its hard to ask
It would be like coming home at last
I could feel you love me just as much
If you let me share your pain
I'll be there when its cold and dark
I'll be waiting to be your joan of arc
I'll do anything to be your rock
To be with you in the rain
I'll be with you in the rain
Return!!!
