Blonde Redhead Complete Lyrics Archive

B i o g r a p h y
(by Stevie Chick)

Blonde Redhead's last album - Misery Is A Butterfly - established them once and for all as one of the most distinctive and precious bands of their generation. It was a confident, thrilling and delicately-nuanced sweep of sound which enraptured the already-converted and won the band a whole new legion of fans. And although it marked a modulation away from the bittersweet starkness of previous releases, it was by far the most commercially successful release of the band's career, continuing a steady upward trajectory, which started well over a decade ago. In 2007, Blonde Redhead return with something even more spellbinding - 23. The new album is as rich and densely layered as the last one, but Misery's overall mood of wistfulness, melancholy and regret, has been replaced by one of mystical wonder and renewed energy. This shift in tone should not come as a surprise - as long-term observers will testify, a restlessness, a questing desire for change and for artistic expression has been a constant throughout the band's career. The graceful turbulence, the artful and dramatic songs of Blonde Redhead's self-produced seventh album mark it out as perhaps their most confident and resonant step yet in a discography marked by great records. Taking their name from a song by New York No Wave artists DNA, the band began playing and rehearsing in New York, drawing inspiration from the city's squalling underground scene, from movie soundtracks, everywhere they could. They caught the attention of Sonic Youth's Steve Shelley, who swiftly signed them to his Smells Like imprint, producing their self-titled debut album in 1994. Following 1995's self-produced La Mia Vita Violenta, the group signed to esteemed Chicago underground imprint Touch And Go, and found a new producer in Guy Picciotto, singer / guitarist for hardcore's deftly-nuanced figureheads Fugazi. The first fruit of their collaboration with Picciotto was the combustive, dissonant Fake Can Be Just As Good (1997) - a record which mixed scraped guitars and eerie synths with lyrics that referenced film-maker Pier Paolo Pasolini and Amedeo and Kazu's own relationship. A sequel, In An Expression Of The Inexpressible, followed a year later, further distilling Blonde Redhead's artful chaos.

The band's swansong for Touch And Go - 2000's Melody Of Certain Damaged Lemons - marked a turning point in the group's sound, and also in their fortunes. The trio pared back the chaos and squall of their earlier records, putting more emphasis on their windswept, minor-key melodies. The album won them a wider acclaim than they'd ever enjoyed before, with European music fans getting their first real taste for the band. In 2003, they signed their first worldwide record deal with 4AD, the legendary UK indie label responsible for The Pixies, Cocteau Twins, Dead Can Dance and many more. Their first album for the label, Misery Is A Butterfly, was ornate and deeply poignant, seeing Blonde Redhead take a further step away from the atonal attack of their earlier records; instead, their love for movie soundtracks (as key an influence throughout their career as the noise of No Wave) came to the fore. At the same time, a new context was emerging for the band - through their rehearsal space in Greenpoint, Blonde Redhead found themselves making connections with the vibrant Brooklyn scene centred on long-time BR fans TV On The Radio (Kazu contributed vocals to TVOTR's 2006 album Return To Cookie Mountain). Which brings us to 23. "We felt we'd been recording and playing long enough, that it was time to make an album on our own," remarks Simone, of their decision to produce 23 themselves. The group returned to the Magic Shop, the New York studio where they recorded La Mia Vita Violenta. Their plan was to be more spontaneous in their song-writing, to aim for simplicity and clarity, and not to over-analyse what they created. Thanks to this consciously-relaxed approach in the studio, the songs came quickly, but old tensions weren't entirely absent. Simone says he found entering the studio with loose ideas for the songs "nerve-wracking". Kazu admits that it "wasn't an entirely enjoyable experience. Without a producer, a "referee", we could really get on each other's cases. It got intense."

"We were very focussed on doing something we hadn't done before," agrees Amedeo. "But until we got to the mixing stage, we weren't sure what direction the album was taking at all. You have to have faith. You also have to really think about what you're doing; sometimes things happen by accident, and that's great, but most of the time you really have to work at it." Midway through recording, with the band feeling a little lost, producer Mitchell Froom (who has worked with American Music Club, Richard Thompson and Paul McCartney) stopped by the studio for a couple of days and helped them work on "Silently" and "Top Ranking". It was a crucial intervention, restoring their confidence and getting them back on track. The end result is the most striking, beautiful and resonant album of Blonde Redhead's career. Simone explains that the band worked intensely on orchestrating these songs, and the care shows in the gentle, touching glide of closer "My Impure Hair", where Kazu's sleepy-eyed yowl is couched upon keening synths, lulling guitars and soft percussion; in the hypnotic, tip-toed hush of 'The Dress'; in the sweeping drama of "Publisher". "This album is almost like all my fantasies and desires, all the feelings I had, were made real somehow," reflects Kazu, "I feel very lucky". Which explains, perhaps, the title - it's her lucky number. Title track "23" is hypnotic and rapturous - a hymn to the magic of change which sets the tone for the whole album - as is "Dr Strangeluv", another magical moment. "Silently" and "Top Ranking" are as emotionally resonant as anything the band have recorded, while uptempo moments like "Spring And By Summer Fall" and "SW" will take their place alongside long-time favourites "Melody Of Certain Three" and "In Particular" as highlights of the band's live set. "We've developed a lot", adds Simone. "It sounds fresh, because we are exploring new things. We get tired of doing the same thing all the time, so we search for other things to do. But I never get tired of our songs. It amazes me, how much tolerance I can have for our own music. I could never go through this with another band, with music that I wasn't 100% into."

I wanna know how you feel in a confrontation

If you insist on situations that make you cry

It can be fear
It's in your eyes
It can be here
The complications affect your mind

I can feel...

I just want someone to pummel me into submission
This incurable fascination with being totally beaten up
I just want someone to slap me right in the mouth
Did you ever get cursed to while you were walking down the street

I just want someone to pummel me into submission
This incredible fascination with being totally beaten up

Bare feet I ???
Please me by time?
Bare feet I ???

They are not fascinated by my eyes

They are not fascinated by my eyes

Violent life

With a thousand kisses
Every moment is all mine
Come back this time

With a thousand kisses
One at time
You brought me crime

Every minute is mine

With a thousand kisses
I'm away
You brought me down

With a thousand kisses
Every second I think of you
Come back it's fine
Bring some wine
And leave my mind
Forever

With a thousand kisses
We share I don't care
I wish you down

With a thousand kisses
Every second I think of you
Come back it's fine
Bring some wine
And leave my mind forever

U.F.O.

Seeing you on the wall in my room,
It's so close to how I want
I never found the same as you
Listen you in my house on though
You're so gentle I try

I lie you lie
My friends told me stories of you
Driving wizards up and down
I never seen the same again
In vain, like it was yours
Far away, like you never meant to say,
I've got to stay
I can see a worlds
I can see the worlds
That belong to you
I don't need those words
I don't need those words say Sonic Youth...
Take me in, in such way
Take it all until the grace

Don't know why
Don't know why
Don't know why
Don't know why
Seeing you on the wall in my room,
It's so close to how I want
I never found... I never found... I never found...

I Am There While You Choke On Me

Shatter
I'm not
I know
Show me
To my
I meant
Your kinda chocolate
Wanna
Wanna
I wanna know
Wanna
Ah, yeah, baby!
Screamin' c'mon!

I'm not too sure
If you're my kinda guy
I don't know
Wanna hurt
Wanna
Wanna
C'mon
Wanna say
Wanna be saved
Wanna walk on
I wanna walk on
Walk on, you hear me?
Oh! Oh yeah, baby!
Need you here
I look for

Harmony

Harmony
You're jaded
I want you
Stick 'em up
Write the town
The wall
Harmony
You're jaded
I'm gonna
Stick it up
It's gonna
Write the wrong
No one is clear
Breathing you to his lungs
Three miles away
Walking under the sun

Down Under

Smaller, smaller he's so still
Which one is gonna make it make it to the madness
You are right for me protect me from what I want
I'm trying not to repeat myself
Down Under
Down Under
Down Under
Down Under
Smaller, smaller he's so stick
Which one is gonna make it make it to the madness
Since I'm far from you I did know, I didn't know
I want to keep myself to myself
Now, I know Now,
I know Down Under
Down Under .....
Down Under
Down Under
Down Under
Down Under

The way we go
All too soon
Way far away
From all we know
To all we deny
To see your smile
With a crown on your head
To meet those again
Not to be sincere
And all the cares

Nothing to share
I just want it back
I never thought to leave
To be so brave
Let's stand on a hand
With muscles relaxed
Even i could relax
To see you smile
For all my love
All this too soon
The way we go

After twelve long slow years gone by
You're still the only one
I cried when I saw you
Don't cry
I can find you when I can
I cried when I found you
[?]
Almost dead
Half-dead

If i could go away
I wouldn't go there
It's fine it's out
It's life
It's no surprise
If i were in love...
Don't care, just walk some miles
I kissed you on and on
And it's all wrong

To know that you are there
To turn you on
Again what could go wrong?
Take the eyes
I'd feed you on and on
And there's a song
If i were in love...
Don't care, just walk some back

Ten feet high
I can't fly and
Stand on
Facedown
Can't be gone
Fell for
Just not
Missing my luck
I have the figure of Virgin Mary

I can't stop my fall
For your eyes
Not for an hour
And not for your smile
Please don't be late
'Cause you know I can't wait
And don't complain and be insane

Kazuality

I want you too shy
One time one two slow
Kid and kiss one line
Get ahead get inside
I was wrong yes or no
King of skills rubber man
Kazuality

I want you to shout
One shout one down slow
Dance to the host with ambition
Learn to learn open wide
When we meet when we please
Get attacked get inside
Kazuality

One down one crown
No shame like a fire
Timeless fire
That burns
Me to you, you to me
Old love new idea

Symphony of Treble

Close your spine till you're a ball
Tihs is a good way to break off from the party
Pretend you're lost pretend you're dog
I know you can chew a shoe like a piece of steak

Now you can hide
Now you can seek
Like a pleasure treasure hunter killers
Why go home?

Shut your face, it makes no sense
Wrap your heart with all the nerves and veins
Am I not my body?
I seem to remember numbers figures details of this life

Now you can count
Now you can act
Like an enemy sister social worker
Are we damned?

Ego Maniac Kid

Your fault my fault i now forget
Your life my lies wouldn't be the last
I dive into plastic events
Apartment full of evidence

What's false to you was not false to me
Your time my time it all gets to me
You fake your name for reentry
Imagine greater sin

I want to live on the 5th story
I like to feel the thrill of day
Pretend you're meaner
Pretend you're busy
Too long for a promise
A show to start...ah

Another song
Just another way
To tear away

Your fault my fault i now forget
Your life my lies wouldn't be the last
I dive into plastic events
Apartment full of evidence

I want to live on the 5th story
I like to feel the thrill of day
Pretend you're meaner
Pretend you're busy
Too long for a promise
The end to stare at
I know i know
I want to reach like i've never...
I wait i know i'll wait
But i never...

I never...was
Another song
Just another way
I get away

Bipolar

Say wrong
I won't say anything...anyway
Fake can be just as good

Place you've never been
Patience on the way
Place you've never been
No way...anyway

Why then
You renew in so many ways
How far
Fake can be no flaw on the way
I know
I'm just a flaw...anyway
So I
Some space...and come back

I know good walk away
I need to shut away
What I throw away
I want your way

I know I get away anyway
I know it's hard to get ahead, boy

Say wrong
I won't say anything...anyway
Fake can be just as good

Place you've never been
Patience on the way
Place you've never been
No way...anyway

I know a man is somewhere..where?
Here I am, shot it again

I know you'd walk away
I need to shout away
What I throw away
I want your way

Pier paolo

Young man poet insane
For you I find myself alone too soon

Today you are in my way

The sweetest act of life repeated till I bled

On detention

Unknown and uninvited
As for me my life today
Young man insane you are i pray

I am here alone with you
And one plus one the sun

A place in the world
An expression
No salt no fear
Caoutiously with you
On detention
I submit and you smile

K: "What? Do you want me?
What are you waiting?
Love was ill and
No...no...no!!"

"Say...what's your man and
Say...what's the magic?
Kill your sad expressions
Nobody should touch
What's in your heart!!"

A: "What I'm trying to sell
Isn't all the same.
And what is every side? Sensual?
And would be in distance
It's just a genuine need
For an average man
You and I nothing more
Than love what I love"

There's someone watching you

K: "Love all your sad expenses
Just a little more
Will you ever live it?
Will you ever know?"

What? Do you want me?
What are you waiting?
Love was ill and
No...no...no!!"

A: "What I'm trying to sell

This is the moment as for the future
I will be there and we will dare.

As long as you hold on and hunger for my love
Not any other luv

Missile me puncture me
As long as you weave me into your day
As long as you remain...

Futurism vs. Passeism part 2

Le temps le plus important c'est la première fois
Le temps le plus important c'est la deuxième fois
Et après ça le troisième fois
Et on recommence

J'ai perdu les habitudes de ma jeunesse
Et je me sens désunis et à part de ma propre histoire
Et on recommence

Speed x distance = time

Corrupt temptation speed x distance equal time
Pain in my leg a needle pointing at neon
Let go unfriendly kiss shedding my scales off spread desire disappear
Drink up my sweat and screamed that I never wrote to you
I know you don’t have a girlfriend murdered old lady kick off kick slogan
Off don’t pay me anymore
Tell me tell me tell me that I woke up this morning kick off kick slogan
Off don’t pay me anymore

In An expression Of The Inexpressible

Anything that loose would cancel itself
Anything that loose would fall off my bed
I knew that, I knew that, I knew that
But I couldn't change it

I made up my mind and changed my mind
Made up my mind and changed it
Absence is good empty is reassuring
Absence presence
Submit to nothing

I made up my mind and changed my mind
Made up my mind and changed it
Absence is good empty is reassuring
Positive negative
Submit to nothing

In an expression of the inexpressible

I'm deceitful i'm dreadful i'm lazy i'm vain and vile
Our rendez-vous was run down...

Suimasen

On you...I can't stop
You now know how to fall
How to be and who to buy
Where to live and when to lie
Visible invisible
How to be desirable
Always you always me except you own defense

No not now
No not with myself
All i want is to be you
All i want is to be two
Visible invisible
How to be describeable
Always you always me except your own defense

My last words were not amusing
I know but since then i thought about
What i can tell you
Kindly show you and give you

My head aches just as i speak of you
I am not so sure i alone
Each man to himself
Like myself i see

This song is you this song is full of you
All i want is to be two
This song...

Led Zep

Champion i feel cold
I know the way now
Always i'm not down, oh no
Always pounding
Always surrender
Always saw stars
I've known names of those, oh yes
Always a handful
I'm not dumb like you
Always angry
Always politics
Always commend
Always trusting
Always longevity

This Is For Me And I Know Everyone Knows

You almost know me suffer from the same desire
You now can understand
Didn't stop to think again
You moved i ran an open wound
We must conclude
I know a man who only cries an old desire (he's just a man)
This is for me and i know everyone knows
This is for you and i know it really shows
But noone talks, nothing locks
Noone fears only fear
And soon...we'll too engage
But in my eyes it's almost lost

In particular

Lying on my back. I heard music.
Felt unsure & catastrophic.
Had to tell myself it's only music.
It blows my mind, but it's like that.

Is anyone there? What could you tell me?
Afraid of what? Would you ever know?
Everyone else is really boring.
Anyone else wouldn't be good enough.

Some place safe i would imagine.
Someone new would be so cruel.
Incurable paranoiac. Hysterical depression.

Alex i'm your only friend.
Alex your love will sing for you

Melody of certain three

Crawl, crawl as a child
Move like a man
Pushing like a father
Pulling like a friend
Whatever it takes forever it seems
But despite of all that all is well

Sexing like stone
Hot as the sand
Entering a life
Exiting with a man
Whatever it takes forever it seems
But despite of all that all is well

Sometimes i spin around for days
Skip and chase and say
Forget about tomorrow
Until i realize
This valid and logic motion
Is what keeps me from moving
I don't understand

Running running on tracks
With feet on the ground
It will only slow me down
And which way the wind blows
I run like a man ready to go anywhere

When i am so timid
You'll be my words
When i am most effective
You act like a stone
Whatever it takes forever it seems
But despite of all that all is well

Hated because of great qualities

Secret so sorry that i forgot
Secret secret we're all bound to forget.
I was worried i might be rude to you.
So worried that i was.
It's a lie to serve the truth
And i'm still guilty.
I missed. So be it.

Everywhere everything you ever touched.
Cutting in won't do it. There's nothing to it.
You were sorry that i was alone
So sorry that you run away.
Putting it on me but you already knew it.
It never meant a thing.
So be it.

I can't understand this at all.
I can't pronounce this at all.

These are different matters
These are uncertain feelings
They should never be discussed here
So keep it to yourself

Love despite of great faults

You will move
With me we will
Stay still and
Words will move around us.
Surround us in gold
And in our world
We will be
Silent.

You will swim
To me we will
Be free
And words will move around us
Swim around us
Surround us in schools
And in our cool
We'll be reminded.

That you refuse to fade away
I hide to stay the same
Where do we go from here
I don't know.

For me you flower to be chosen
I fall down to be noticed
Where do we go from here i don't know.

It was a time
A way of life
The only secrets
We talked about
Were all the fears
In all these years
We spent together

This is not

Once she loved a boy
But he did not love her
His name was jun
Disillusioned she tried to forget
So she left everything and traveled to the other side of the world
But life was like a dream
A series of meaningless movement

And then by chance she met you & your brother.
The moment she saw you.
She knew you were made for her.

You're never out of her thoughts
She sees only you.

If it was yesterday he'd felt free just like her
He could have been with her
But today can't be anymore
Tomorrow maybe yes
But today he is not there

I heard someone say
That mind keeps wondering from desire to contempt
From contempt to desire
Never ever feeling bored. Cause we think we are free.
I think it's so pathetic
Don't you
Were you listening to me. No not even one word.

I heard someone say that mind keeps wondering
Life is like a dream. A series of meaningless movement.
I heard someone say
Let's go to the other world
Because we think we are free. A series of meaningful
Movement

La la la

A cure

Everybody knows him he is a pleaser
Nothing else than just a teaser
Teaser of his own faint smile

Yes and how he is so amusing
Smiling can be so consuming
And so strange to explain

Oh i know how i think i might
Have known of you somehow and
What your name was

Like any another man in many ways he is not
Like life itself a mystery or two
Hey Mr. Pleaser would you smile for me?

Yes and how many times he hasn't
Spoken just to please not to displease
Please her if you please

Oh i see how his life resembles
Yours and you somehow are like him.
I see i know i've been too good for you
You know he is just like me
Pleasing you and now
All you do is wish
I was more and more like him
If so would you consider keeping me
Closer i know

He turns his head and doesn't see you
But when he does he looks and greets you
How are you? good luck !!
so know i call myself a pleaser
This time sitting on a secret
One secret everybody knows

Oh i see how his life resembles
Yours and you somehow are like him.
I see i know i've been too good for you
You know you know that he is just like me
Pleasing you and now,and now all
You do is wish i was more and more like him
If so would you consider keeping me
Closer if so, i know if i was more and more like him
If so would you consider keeping me closer
I know i know if i was more and more like him if so...

*** Thanx a lot to Uli who corrected this one ***

For the damaged

Maybe again he will be alone
Guess we're equally damaged
Find your name do it all the same equally
Signal when you can't breathe no more

Say you were me then you could see the view
You'll know we are equally damaged
Don't be a fool, make it easier
You'll learn to say when
Signal if you can't say, "no more"

Don't cross your finger
Sundays will never change
They keep on coming
You'll be a freak
And i'll keep you company

Mother

You pay for that.
You're wrong if you think it was a loan.
I'm onto you. you're fading out.
You're wrong if you think i'm alone.
They will never fail.
I will never fail.

For the damaged coda

Am i?
Am i to be paid?

Angel I can see myself in your eyes
Angel won’t you feel for me from your heart
Do return my heart to me
No don’t insist I’m already hurt

Elephant girl
It was an accident unfortunate
Angel threw me like a rubber man
Aiming for the ground
Why amuse yourself in such way
No don’t insist I’m already hurt

Lay me down on the ground softly softly
Don’t remove my head hurts much too much

You never return it
Well I wouldn’t miss it
I shed no tears for broken me
You never know it my peace of mind
Now inside and outside are matching

Why amuse yourself in such way
No don’t insist I’m already hurt
If you never return it
Will it break your wings
Will you shed no tears for broken me

Messenger

Stay still do be still
No wonder you are always lost
If a messenger you must be known
Then with messages you must return
To be seen by demanding hands
And touches of jealous men
Invisible and forgivable
To all their secret hands

Be it so be quick
Don’t run just walk and walk and walk
Don’t loose yourself to decorate
Somewhere on your wall
Cause somewhere in your mind
You know you are doing fine
Holding secret hair locks
You’ll pluck before you hide

So how can I keep anything to myself
So how can I keep any of these to myself
So how can I keep anything to myself
Behind those clouds
I’m almost home

Melody

She knows I can’t read
She knows I can’t write
But these are the letters from melody
Show me how to read
Show me how to write
These are the things you can do for me

Why did you kill that poor old man, melody
Why did you kill that poor old man, melody
She said, “He was never good to me”
She said, “He was never good to me”

Tell me how she was dressed that day, my melody
Don’t show me how she touched her face, my melody
She said, “I would never do it again. Give me another chance.”
I said, “Why didn’t you come to me? Why didn’t you talk to me?”

Doll Is Mine

Mine is an act of love
Mine is a wish to solve
And mine is to sink by your side
You are to be amused
And you are never to be confused
In your first love
Your first time
Why a doll so they tell me
Cause she is mine
Faith and fully mine
I must say
This love hasn’t changed me
Cause I feel fine
Faith and fully mine

I must have seen too much skin
Much more than I needed to
And much more than I wanted to dream
I must have felt so much pain
It’s funny how some things do remain
It isn’t true that things do change
Isn’t it strange how pain remains
But don’t look sad cause it isn’t sad
Now that I have you to myself

Misery Is a Butterfly

Dearest Jane I should’ve known better
But I couldn’t say hello, I didn’t know why
But now I think, I think you were sad
Yes you were, you were, you were

What I say, I say only to you
Cause I love and I love only you
Dearest Jane, I want to give you a dream
That no one has given you

Remember when we found misery
We watched her, watched her spread her wings
And slowly fly around our room
And she asked for your gentle mind

Misery is a butterfly
Her heavy wings will warp your mind
With her small ugly face
And her long antenna
And her black and pink heavy wings

Remember when we found misery
We watched her, watched her spread her wings
And slowly fly around our room
And she asked for your gentle mind

Falling Man

Tell me how you seek your man
And tell me all your secret spells
Tell me how you learn
To tell by his voice that he fell

I know a ghost will walk through walls
Yet I am just a man still learning how to fall

Try to re-imagine me
And I’ll re-invent myself
Still I remember scenes
Of when you looked at someone else

I know a ghost can walk through the wall
Yet I am just a man still learning how to fall

When you start doubting me
Then I start to doubt myself
And never look through me
Cause I’ll keep close to myself

I know a ghost can walk through the wall
Yet I am just a man still learning how to fall

I am what I am
And what I am is who I am
I know what I know
And all I know is that I fell
If only I could walk through walls
Then maybe I would tell who I was
Yet I am just a man still learning how to fall

Anticipation

Anticipate and evaluate
What he thought
And what I thought before
You’re broken like me
Like me before

Dark place is your place
I take dark drive to your place
You’re staring me
You’re staring with your inside eyes

Knowing you, knowing me
We’re deeply sorry
You’re broken maybe baby

Maybe it didn’t happen
Maybe all of this would go away
And if we’re ever young again
He’ll anticipate
We’ll evaluate

Maddening Cloud

Sure you can look back
If it means moving on
And you can take me back
But you must come home
We are both a in maddening cloud

And you can touch me there
Just don’t leave me alone
And you can call me softly
When I dream and ask for more
You can slow and fold and mold my mind

And she said
I can’t feel my toes
And she must be alone
And far too cold

And he stares
Like he doesn’t see
He must be scared
And far too lost

Under and over
We must have glanced
Face to face
We’ve had to dance
We’re both in a maddening cloud

Sure you can step back
If it means moving on
And you take me back
But you must be alone
You can choke and smoke and rock my mind

Magic Mountain

At magic mountain
Nobody sings today
Nobody speaks today
Close my eyes
And hope to see
Weeks go by like a day
In a lowland

I live here on magic mountain
No one leaves magic mountain

At magic mountain
Nothing changes
Everything stays the same
Cross my heart
And hope to live
All the time
With a little fever

I stay here on magic mountain
No one leaves magic…

My heart hears you sing
My heart hears you speak
But I never make it in the flatlands
I must stay in magic mountain

*** Thanx a lot to jasper who corrected some mistakes ***

Pink Love

I won’t bind my strings to you
But build my world besides you
Watching you draw a line
Some say you are, you are
Just like a butterfly
Whose broken wings will spread
To softly feel your mood
Over the blue sky full of you
Pink love, pink love, pink love
Just like a fairytale

My only reason naturally
Starts to get to me
Pushing my way through
Mesh of life
I want to kiss the sickness of mind
My heart without reason
Sunken to deep disappointment
Spreads over universe
With a knife
I want to bleed out distress like this

It’s not just a fairytale painted by me
It’s not just loneliness between you and I
If on magic mountain you find you can breath
Then stay and don’t look back
To the blue woven sky

Storms of petals are pouring down
Pushing their way through our pink love
So many polka dots painted by me
Spreads over universe for you
And I, I want to kiss
Pink love, pink love
I want to kiss
Pink love, pink love
In my mind
I state myself
The clock is ticking without you
Some may say illness
So called so called love
The sickness of mind

Equus

Allow me to show you
The way which I adore you

Sometimes I think I must
Just let you be a horse
All I want is to be a rider
To be part of you

Afraid so afraid
To loose you
If someone looks at you
Turn into donkey
Pretend you are lame

Equus by nature
Timid creature
Ready to run away
Equus by nature
Timid creature
Cares nothing
For the plans they made

I will hide you
Will protect you
Won’t let anyone
Take you away

Twenty three seconds
All things we love will die
Twenty three magic
If you can change your life

Your tainted heart, your tainted heart
My tainted love, my tainted love
Repent now
How many times
As long as you live
How many times
The world will go around

He was a friend of mine
He was a son of god
He was a son of a gun

He was a friend of mine
He was a son of god
He was a son of a gun
He was a son of god

Twenty three seconds
In you I see a chance
Twenty three magic
If you change the name of love

Your crazy heart
My crazy love
Repent now
How many times
As long as you wish
How many times
The world will go around
How many times
As long as you want
How many times
The world will go around

He was a friend of mine

Dr Strangeluv

Looking everywhere
I see nothing but people
Looking everywhere
But I see nothing but people
Where have they gone
I always thought I could never leave them
They are calling me
But they don't know I can't stay all night long

Hey, Dr Strangeluv
So sad, isn't it true
(You left without goodbye)

Hey, Dr Strangeluv
So sad, isn't it true
(You left without goodbye)

Looking everywhere
Keep my fire going
Cold look in their eyes
Cold air in their hearts
They are calling me
I always thought I could save them all
They are calling me
They don't know I can't stay all night long

Hey, Dr Strangeluv
So sad, isn't it true
(You left without goodbye)

Hey, Dr Strangeluv
So sad, isn't it true
(You left without goodbye)

Looking everywhere
Keep my fire going

The Dress

Tears you see on my face
You do have something to do with
Fear starts creeping up
When you have so much to lose
Your love waits you while you're cheating
Lightning strikes you when you're moving

The light you see in my eyes
You do have something to do with
Play the game namely love
Play it like you have nothing to lose
Horse loves you when you move with him
People hate you when you're changing

Don't let the dress trick you
I love you less now that I know you
I won't count the scars again
I love you less now that I know you

The glow you see on my face
You do have something to do with
Fear starts creeping up
When you have so much to lose
Your love wait you while you're cheating
Lighting strikes you when you're moving

Don't let me wonder away
I love you less now that I know you
Don't let the dress trick you
I love you less now that I know you

I won't count the scars again
Because I love you

SW

Oh it's not, it's not what you give
But it's what you kept
Oh it's not, it's not who you kill
But it's who you left

I am, I am running in my head
I am, I am lying on my left
I am, I am growing in my bed
I am, I am

Oh it's not, it's not how you speak
But it's what you said
Oh it's not, it's not what you seek
But it's what you have

I am, I am running in my head
I am, I am lying on my left
I am, I am growing in my bed
I am, I am

Oh it's not, it's not what it seems
It's not what it seems
It's not, it's not what you leave
But it's what you hold

I am, I am running in my head
I am, I am lying on my left
I am, I am growing in my bed
I am, I am

Spring And By Summer Fall

Tell me where you've seen my life
I look in your eyes and can only see my own complexion
Tell me where you've been my life
I've been watching you spring by summer fall when some one called

Tell me where you've seen my life
You've been biting my hands and knocking me down down to the ground
Tell me where you've been my life
I see only what you see, face who you face, be who you want to be

Clashing lies and clashing thighs
Clashing chasing changing minds
Tell me what you've seen tell me where you've gone
Tell me where you've been tell me what you saw

Clashing lies and clashing thighs
Clashing chasing changing minds
Tell me what you've seen tell me where you've gone
Tell me where you've been tell me what you saw

Tell me where you've been my life
I see only what you see, face who you face, be who you want to be

Silently

Silently, I wish to sail into your port, I am your sailor
Quietly, I drop my weight into your sea, I drop my anchor
I sway in your waves, I sing in your sleep
I stay till I'm in your life

I realize now you're not to be blamed my love
You didn't choose your name my love
You never crossed the seven seas
I realize now you're not to be blamed my love
You didn't choose your name my love
You never crossed the seven seas

Oh, sweet creature
I know exactly how you feel
Your clock is ticking, tick tack tick tack
Your heart is beating tum tum tum tum tum

Silently, I wish to sail into your port, I am your sailor
Quietly, I drop my weight into your sea, I drop my anchor

I realize now you're not to be blamed at all
You didn't choose your name my love
You die a little in my arm
I realize now you're not to be blamed at all
You didn't choose your name my love
We never crossed the seven seas
I realize now you die a little in my arm
Before you even taste my love
We never crossed the seven seas
I realize now you re not to be blamed at all
You didn't choose your name my love
You die a little in my arm
I realize now

Father don't you go
Let's just take a walk in the afternoon ... look at me
Mother don't you know
You can only see me through a clouded sphere ... look at me
Walk out on a limb leaning on a cloud that isn't still reveals
Looking down a cliff it isn't fun it's communicating fear

Say what you say, say it like a cat
Say it to my face and say what you know every one says
Say what you say, say it like a cat
Say it to my face and say what you know every one says

Father don't you know
You have made me into a quiet man ... look at me
Mother don't you go
You are a long way away from me ... look at me

I see you as you see me ... look at me
Change your heart cause I am already spoken for
Change your heart cause I am already spoken for

Say what you say, say it like a cat
Say it to my face and say what you know every one says
Say what you say, say it like a cat
Say it to my face and say what you know every one says

Tell me why talk to lie, tell me why tell me why
Oh you were gonna run with me

Show you how, show you how, show you how when to stop
Oh you were gonna run with me

Roland takes the sea, but he goes without me

Oh you were gonna run with me

Roland takes the sea, but he goes without me

Roland makes the move, but he goes without me

He goes without me

Roland takes the trip but he went without me

Top Ranking

We've come a long way to where the mountain is high
I take my cedar to where the mountain is high

What I need is a peace and quiet
What we see is an illusion
I have no reason to confuse them
I have no reason to confuse my brothers

They have real shotguns
They were baby killers
But I warned you many times that they will burn down your house

Not today (what can I do)
Not today (to make it better)

What we need is a persuasion
What you give is retaliation
I hope one day we meet again
I hope one day we love one another

They were young soldiers
They were old liars
But I heard the rumor that they will burn down your house

Not today (what can I do)
Not today (to make it better)

They will burn down your house
They will burn down your house

Impure Hair

I've lost my key
I've gone too far
Was it enough to make you sick ?
Maybe I live again, but would I lose again my virginity ?
Oh, my virginity

I'm shaped to get in your way
But in the end
We defend our decadence
You never wept like that
Whatever lost I won't forget about you
Oh, forget about you

It's not what I said, it's what you said
It's what you did did that belongs to everyone
It's not what I hate, it's what you hate
Its decadence belongs to everyone

One day I lie next to you and you stroke my impure hair

Here Sometimes

A little girl above the fireplace
In the air flying motionless
Ring the bells so
She could keep flying
This is me, completely me

End of day, we watch the sun go down
I can see you're like a firework
You want to save me
People will save me
This is you, completely you

Now it's day but I am dreaming
A man walks by, I want to be his wife
I'm only here sometimes
Under the tree of life
I'm only good sometimes
Taking my time to go home

Like a candle wasted from burning
I got shoes tired from walking
Calling on your name, my lips keep failing
They have now forgotten to sing

Now it's day but I am dreaming
A man walks by, I want to be his wife
I'm only here sometimes
Under the tree of life
I'm only good sometimes
Taking my time to go home

I'm only here sometimes
Under the tree of life
I'm only good sometimes
Taking my time to go home

I'm only good sometimes
Under the tree of life
I'm only here sometimes
Taking my time to go home

Not Getting There

You already know
This won't end with kisses
You already see
We won't spare one another

But we'll have fine time
Not getting there
But we'll have fine time
Not getting there

It's easy on the ear
But it's hard on you
You're no exception
You won't end in the castle

But we'll have fine time
Not getting there
But we'll have fine time
Not getting there

But we'll have fine time
Not getting there
But we'll have fine time
Not getting there

But we'll have fine time
But we'll have fine time
Not getting there

Will There Be Stars

Living in the dim light
Living in the dim dim light
There are people saying
It's gonna be a long long night
So we should be holding hands

Living in the dim light
All around you and I
There are people praying
There are children saying
We should be holding hands

No one in the right mind
No one I have ever known
Was given light to begin
Finding out what we really are

Will there be stars will there be stars
Will there be stars on our crown
Will there be stars will there be stars
Will there be stars on our crown

It's never gonna be like
It's never gonna gonna be like
The way it's meant to be
It makes no sense to me
We should be holding hands

Will there be stars will there be stars
Will there be stars on our crown
Will there be stars will there be stars
Will there be stars on our crown

And if I only had
But you in the end and no stars will be left on my crown
And you will never see that much in me
If no stars will be left on my crown

My Plants Are Dead

I heard you on the radio
I said they are my friends
Do you want your keys
Your plants are dead

How long you in town for
I saw your petit chien
She didn't come with you
What you've been listening to

I woke up this morning
Didn't feel for a part
I let the boys party
But I'm just gonna chill

But I'd love to see you
Before I leave
I leave next weekend
I'm not ready to go

Tell me about you
Tell me about Harry
You know what I heard
Between you and I

I woke up this morning
Didn't feel for a part
I let the boys party
But I'm just gonna chill

But I'd love to see you
Before I leave
I leave next weekend
I'm not ready to go

Tell me about blue
Tell me about Harry
Tell me about Paul

Tell me about Chiara
Tell me about Jane

Love or Poison

Combing your hair
I know nothing about you
Smiling like a young moon
Looking in the mirror

My card knows
You could be happy like a child
Raising your arms to me
Waiting to be coming down to me

In your love I swear
In your love I hide
In your love I sleep
In your love I turn
In your love I cry
In my life I ride
I ask you again

Try so hard
So that I could sleep without you
And you
You keep holding on to my lonely parts

In your love I swear
In your love I hide
In your love I sleep
In your love I turn
In your love I cry
In my life I ride
I ask you again

Is this love or prison

Oslo

Nothing, I thought nothing of you
Just another young man
Running up the mountain
There are many like you

Mistaken, it's not meant to be this
It's not meant to be love
Crossing path and that is all
And that was all

Turning me
And handle me
Come through me
And close to me

Turning me
And handle me
Come through me
And close to me

I wish we had one long night
Stain each other
We won't one another
But will you always remember

Turning me
And handle me
Come through me
And close to me

Turning me
And handle me
Come through me
And close to me

Penny Sparkle

If Penny could tell me all she's seen
About the way her clover tastes
She said she had a fun today
She soared over like she used to
If I could only given her time

She lost her pain and she stayed
Her eyes, they're dark and they show

If Penny could tell me all she knows
And about the way the wind can hurt
And when she thinks of coming back
Or making fools of us
Walk back with me or may be she'll stay

She lost her pain and she stayed
Her eyes they're dark and they show
She lost her age and she stayed
Her tail it swings and it shows

Everything is Wrong

Hard to say yes
Hard to say no
The ones who make love
The ones who sleep alone
Everything is wrong here let's all have a break
Everything is wrong here let's all have a rest

The ones who love to dance
The ones who love to talk
The ones who go to bars
The ones who go to Switzerland
Everything is wrong here let's all have a think
Everything is wrong here let's all have a laugh

The ones who say trust me
The ones who support the king
The ones who go on strike
The ones who never vote
Everything is wrong here let's all have a break
Everything is wrong here let's all have a rest

The ones who loose their war
The ones who loose their teeth
The ones who had a fatal crush
The ones afraid of flying
Everything is wrong here let's all have a break
Everything is wrong here let's all have a think

Black Guitar

So long as your mind falls for life then life will fall for you
And I will love you for another life and another you
But as long as you will shadow me then I won't bear the fruits
That will want to make me love you another night and another you

Black guitar gave me a song
The role of your own demise awash my tears
If the sun may blind you
I find you the moon
No one shadows
The retina of your heart

So long as your eyes follow mine then mine will fall on you
And I will blind you for another night and another moon
But as long as you will battle me then I will stand accused
With a mind that will make you wonder is there a sun or is there a moon

Black guitar gave me a voice
The famous last words all I hate is here
Moving onto urgent matters
In the end I didn't die
In the end I didn't die
No one shadows
The retina of your heart
No one shadows
The retina of your heart

Spain

My notebook says
I can't take it anymore
The dancer says
He's the one to share my bed

I only know
When I look at you
Aren't many men I feel I love
I don't mean to flatter you

My sister says
No more calling you
It's out of my hand
No more missing you

I only know
When I look at you
Aren't many men I feel I love
I don't mean to flatter you

I don't care for making more
I just want the glazing eyes
I want us to share the wine
Let us share our blood and hearts
Let us share our blood and hearts

I stole your golden key
Tiptoed around and closed the door
I only want the love
Could give me back my modesty

I only know
When I look at you
There isn't much I feel I need
I don't mean to flatter you

I don't care for having more
I just want the glazing eyes
I want us to share the wine
Let us share our blood and hearts
I just want the glazing eyes
Let us share our blood and hearts
Let us share our blood and hearts

Moon child, Lady M
Lady M is for
How many times have you
Afterwards do they
Are they supposed

Moon child, Lady M
Lady is aching head
How many times have you
Afterwards do they
After you've done them
Do they love you
I'm always on the run and I hate copy paste for god's sake
When you dance, she'll dance
When you dance, she'll dance
When you dance, she'll dance
Moon light, Lady Jane

When you dance, she'll dance
When you dance, she'll dance
When you dance, she'll dance
Moon light, Lady M

You were right, girl
You were art, you're dripping
For a girl you're superb
You're so thin

In your eyes and in your mind
I see change, it's a shame
Close your eyes, stalling the walk
You're alive, it's the same

Collect this song
In the blue light of May
For I found the one
No one knows, no one knows
I'm always on the run and I hate copy paste for god's sake
I saw you dripping sunlight
I saw you dripping moonlight
I saw you dripping sunlight
I saw you dripping moonlight

Collect this song
In the glowing light of May
For I found the one
No one knows, no one knows

In your eyes and in your mind
I see change, it's a shame
Close your eyes, stalling the walk
You're alive, it's the same

You were right, girl
You were art, you're dripping
For a girl you're superb
You're so thin

I saw you dripping sunlight
I saw you dripping moonlight
I saw you dripping sunlight
I saw you dripping moonlight

You're only
Keep own it
Any move
And you're only
You got to own it
Any leave

I let you know
And then no way
I let you know
I'm a no way
I let you know
And then go away
You got to move away
I'm always on the run and I hate copy paste for god's sake
And you're only
Keep own it
Don't move
And you're only
You got to own it
You don't need

I let you know
And then no way
I let you know
I don't know way
I let you know
Got to go
You got to move away

I mean it should work on it
A little bit more

The One I Love

You made me black and blue
You're gonna kill this mocking bird

She tells me stars are true
I don't know how to stay afloat
Now you want an au pair

Why I never heard that word
I can be your moon light
But not in that dress

She does nothing all day but sit down and cry
She touches the sky and wishes to die
She does nothing all day but sit down and cry
She touches the sky and wishes to die
She does nothing all day but sit down and cry
Sit down and cry
I'm always on the run and I hate copy paste for god's sake
You love me black and blue
You're gonna kill this mocking bird
I can be your moon light
But not in that dress

She does nothing all day but sit down and cry
She touches the sky and wishes to die
She does nothing all day but sit down and cry
She touches the sky and wishes to die
She does nothing all day but sit down and cry
Sit down and cry

No More Honey

Then again and I think then again
We were sorry, but I want to love again
I could feel you, but I couldn't say to you
Whatever you do, I won't be sorry
No more honey
I'm always on the run and I hate copy paste for god's sake
Much more, more than you ever know
In old days, we waited by the telephone
You can loose it, loose it for the new you
Whatever you do, I won't be sorry
No more honey
I won't be sorry
No more honey
I won't be sorry
No more honey

No more honey
No more honey
No more honey

Mind To Be Had

I never minded love
I knew you were grounded
True to the life that you knew
In time I grew long long
I sank down to rest, the more I do
The more I don't
I never wanted your life
You needed so you were mine

I never wanted love
I never minded
Bleng and your silence is poor
You saw the way I was
And I knew you and counted
All days I was alone
In time I grew long long long
I sank down to rest, the more I do
The more I don't
I never wanted your life
You needed so you were mine
I never let you be mine
All I want to be in you mind
I'm always on the run and I hate copy paste for god's sake
And I knew you and counted
All the days I was alone
In time I grew long long
I fell down to rest, the more I do
The more I don't
I never wanted your life
You needed so you were mine
I never let you be mine
All I want to be in you mind
You will always be in your mind
You

Defeatist Anthem (Harry and I)

You are my secret and I am yours
In real life we're pretending
But we, we're together
Like waves

They don't know the first thing
We mustn't be beaten down
I mean truly beaten
I'm always on the run and I hate copy paste for god's sake
Will you make me part of you
And I will you of me

All I wanted for us to be one
All I wanted for us to be one
All I wanted for us to be one

Let me sleep
You let me sleep

Penultimo

Bowery is tame
Not the way it used to be
Kings come out to nowhere
Doomed to be rich

Prepare to tell
Nothing to see here, here
Prepare to tell
Nothing to see here, here

Hunger is strange
Keeps happening to me
The lady is not a narc
She is just a lady
I'm always on the run and I hate copy paste for god's sake
Prepare to fail
Fail to prepare
Prepare to fail
Fail to prepare

Wait at the corner
Meet me you know where
I can hardly see
This side of glass

Did he just ask
Without turning around
When's your next show
Should I even talk
Or hit him with a chain

Something tells me you're wrong
In fact, you're very wrong
The man you see walking
He's not the man he used to be

Prepare to fail
Fail to prepare
Prepare to fail
Fail to prepare

Wait at the corner
Meet me you know where
I can hardly see
This side of glass

Did he just ask
Without turning around
When's your next show
Should I even talk
Or hit him with a chain

Seven Two

I am someone else
Not forever, no
Come rescue me from my mama
I'm always on the run and I hate copy paste for god's sake
Someone like you, not me
Someone who flies too close
The moon, the ground
I want to know

You know how people are
You tell them something
And they start talking

You stare an abyss
And the abyss stares back at
You, you
You, you

Salty

Where were them, my eyes
Let my mind fall in, head to toe
All I would see now, you
(Headless horse)

Eyes talk my mind
Led by whatever you do, move
Playful chords mane
I let you choose them one more
Eyes talk
I bet you're salty
Led by led
Whatever you choose, move
(Headless horse)

Eyes talk my mind
Led by whatever you do, move
Playful chords
I let you choose them one more
Eyes talk
I bet you're salty
Led by led
Whatever you choose, move

Come Behind Me, So Good!

My other half is love
My other half go getter
She got the whole crew
Watch them blow up, blow up
I'm so glad you stay

My other man is gold
My other man, don't know
She got the whole crew
Watch them come up, come down
I'm so glad you stay

How could you think I leave you
Why think I don't trust you anymore
I'm still the one, turn you out
Let the sound of our hearts come alive

Half of me
All of me still understand
You just don't explain
Come behind me, so good

Half of me
All of me still understand
You just don't explain
Come behind me, so good

MEO

Nights you fought the best
All the guns pointed at you
Why surrender to all these insults

You look so exhausted
Why you do that to yourself
Look around you
You're surrounded by takers

Don't say you're fine
Don't say that's different
Don't say you think she needs you

Don't say you're fine
Don't say it's different
Don't say you think she needs you

God knows you've been trying
Taking all the blame
Why surrender to all those insults
Don't pick it up
Just leave it for now
You know very well she messed up

Don't say you're fine
Don't say it's different
Don't say you think she needs you

Adult Baby

You don't know nothing about me
You assume I cannot afford not to
I'm not willing to die
I'd rather take a little walk
Than die on road
Die on what

Do I want my life on repeat
No, I don't want to know what awaits me
And I thought you were not the type
To take things for granted

So I tasted my new life
All the tease just to break me
And I thought you were not the same
The way you showed the first time

I need to spend it how I like
How do I look without you, mirror
You give me no approval
I have no invite
'Cause we were living
We were living our lives

Name And Age

Place of birth, name and age
Color of your hair, color of your eyes
You're not at all known to me
No, I don't see how this could be

Place of birth, name and age
Color of my skin and color of my scent
The place I've been and the people I've known
You don't know that if I ever loved

You're not at all right for me
No, you don't say my name right
No, I don't see how this could be

Keep your place, I go my way
I didn't know what you had in your mind
I was fine before
Why am I not now
Don't give me anymore
I trust no more

You're not at all known to me
No, you don't say my name right
No, I don't see how this could be

Now true
You kept me softly from my old world
And it's true
You shook me gently
Set me free

But still
You're not at all right for me
No, you don't say my name right
No, I don't see how this could be

Unsure In Waves

Now I'm traveling at sea
I had none
Unsure in waves
No one could save me
Say hello to me
Self in bottomless sea

I'm ticklish with fear
Almost fun
Unsure in waves
No one could hear me
I dive down to meet someone name Kazu

How long have you
Are you sound
Hello

Hello
Hello
Hey
Down, down

Now I'm traveling at sea
I have none
Unsure in waves
No one could save me
Say hello to me
Self in bottomless sea

How long have you
Are you sound
I dive down to meet someone name Kazu

Who are you
Why are you hurt

Undo

Undo please
Undo all or nothing
I keep wanting (yeah)
We keep growing (closer)
Undo now

While we met
I smelled the rain on you
Undo ah ah ah
The nights we do best are the nights like these
Undo ah ah ah
The nights we do best are the nights like these
Undo ah ah ah

Each time we meet becomes clearer
We now chase the dream
May come true
And transform us

Each time we meet becomes clearer
We now chase the dream
May come true
And transform us

Undo please
Undo all or nothing
I keep wanting (yeah)
We keep growing (undo)

Coyote

I don't remember
Hardly the only
The outline of you now changed

No one told me time is not moving
Don't want to leave anymore
Clues than that

You move so slowly
The first time I want to be me beside you
We want the same
But nothing the same already
Because with you
I need to do well

No one told me time is not moving
Don't want to leave anymore
Clues than that

Building up the trust
Only to break it halfway
We want the same
But nothing the same, no

Because with you
I act like an elephant girl
And I feel like a child
You act like an old man
But you are a child

Building up the trust
Only to break it halfway
Running away together, but
Only to break down halfway
We want the same
But we're not the same, no
But with you
I need to do well

Are you ready
If I tell you
If I'm ready to give up
What are you going to do for me
Now talk, talk
We're not the same, no
'Cause with you
I won't say no

SIT DOWN FOR DINNER

Snowman

Only some, only know
Why you went so far
So far to write a love song
That you still hide

Do you feel alive
Or do you only fall
A fall to remember
So like a no man that you are
So like a no man that you are

Only doubts, only doubts
That you fix your thoughts on
Consider how you lock on
What you decide and how

Do you ever know
What kind of love calls
So like a no man that you are
So like a no man that you are

Don't you go, don't you go and get out of line
Don't you wish to be seen
Don't you wish of what you could find
Have you seen, have you heard of a love that has no crime

The only time, the only time that you love a lovebird
Repeated by a mockingbird
Why you still crying and how
Live like a loner
Live like a no man
Live like a snowman

So like a no man that you are
So like a no man that you are

Don't you go, don't you go and get out of line
Don't you wish to be seen
Don't you wish of what you could find
Have you seen, have you heard of a love that has no crime

Kiss Her Kiss Her

Ah you want her
It's gonna end in tears
You wear your heart on your sleeve
I know I do the same
Everyone says
Why on Earth
Even stars are closer
Even I think you're fool

But if you want her
Take her
I'd be screaming, "Kiss her, kiss her"
Take her by hand
Take her to the dolphin sea
Let the boy, let the boy, let the boy
Dream on
Let them laughing, you're fool
Stand by you

Ah you want her
It's gonna end in tears
You wear your heart on your sleeve
I know I do the same
Everyone says
Why on Earth
Even stars are closer
Even I think you're fool

Well, if you want her, tell her
I'd be screaming, "Kiss her, kiss her"
Take her by hand
Take her to the dolphin sea
Let the boy, let the boy, let the boy
Dream on
Let them laughing, you're fool
Anyone know

Want her, tell her
I'd be screaming, "Kiss her, kiss her"
Take her by hand
Take her to the dolphin sea
I wear your heart on your sleeve
Does anyone know

Want her, tell her
I'd be screaming, "Kiss her, kiss her"

Not For Me

I thought you wanted light
Now I want to know you're fine
But you ran with the flowers
(With the flowers)
And further than water
(Further than water)

I know you're not alone
I've heard you grown and shone
But you ran with the flowers
(With the flowers)
And further than water
(Further than water)
And further than our walls

I really care about you
I always wanted you too soon
You really want a beautiful life
You really sang what you cried
I already care about two
I never wanted you to move
Move to the side
Move to the light
Move to a place that no one can find

This time, I think you know
That far is far but always so close
But you ran with the flowers
(With the flowers)
And further than water
(Further than water)

I thought you wanted light
I want to know you're mine
But you ran with the flowers
(With the flowers)
And further than water
(Further than water)
And further than our walls

I really care about you
I always wanted you too soon
You really want a beautiful life
You really sang what you cried
I already care about two
I never wanted you to move
Move to the side
Move to the light
Move to a place that no one can find

I really care about you
I always wanted you too soon
You really want a beautiful life
You really sang what you cried
I already care about two
I never wanted you to move
Move to the side
Move to the light
Move to a place that no one can find

Melody Experiment

Why would you be like you can always bail out
If you choose to or if you wanted to
Why put yourself in the first place
Where you don't know that you were meant to
Funny how decisions you make
When you fall in love with someone

How would you feel if I kept you secret
I didn't know what I was afraid of
Well, I felt somewhat abandoned
I felt abandoned myself, didn't I

Stay away from me

Now don't you feel in your bones
We are coming to the end of an era
And we standing at the edge of cliff once again
Are you ready to jump off
Are you aware if you get on that spaceship
You're not coming back for a century

Say goodbye to friends and family
I really love you, obviously
Who is it obvious to, bet no one
Behind six doors, didn't I

Take me for real
Take me real, real

Rest Of Her Life

Do you know why
She walks by but no hi
I heard she lost her love one week ago
And she greets every horse
Everyday still talks to him
Morning
Sunshine
Harry
How are you
My love
The rest of her life
She walks without you

Lost soul
Hovering
Over you
Say that she can see you again
Dwelling in the past
She walks without you

Lost soul
Hovering
Over you
Say that she can see you again
The rest of her life
Dwelling in the past
The rest of her life
(Do you know)

Sit Down For Dinner (Part 1)

I heard the news as I watched the waves
Bitch, I was afraid
You need money, you need to work
Go back to New York

We all had plans before, then we got hit
Is that how you felt alone
Please, don't look away

Don't think it would hurt that much
Because you're still young
I've seen much worse case than you're in
And they survived
I hope she is right, but why don't look away
I come to her if it turns she lying

Sit Down For Dinner (Part 2)

Way you go
Ma, she don't deserve
She can't even choose the way she goes
Daddy, daddy oh, I know you're lonely
But I can't, I can't come home now
No, I don't, I won't, I won't, I won't, I don't want to
See, I can't live for you

I know you're tired of living
But dying is not so easy
Away, away, away, away, far away from you
But it's nice, it's nice where I live
But for some (for some) it comes (it comes)
It comes in an instant

You sit down for dinner
And the life as you know it ends
No pity
You hang on to his body
So maybe you can put him back together
But no, no pity

I know you don't deserve
You can't even choose the way you go
Ah I know you're lonely
But I can't, I can't come home now
Away, away, away, away, far away from you
Come home

You sit down for dinner
And the life as you know it ends
No pity
You hang on to his body
So maybe you can put him back together
But no, no pity
I know you don't deserve
The way you go
Away, away, away, away, far way from you
No, no pity

You sit down for dinner
And the life as you know it ends
No pity

I Thought You Should Know

If you were right
I'd agree
If you were kind
I'd be me
While you walk on the other side
Of your smile
Darkness fell on your lips
Onto mine

To make a plan
Or to tell a bad
If only changes
Would have made us grow
Like the trees that always know
When you're gone

Let them find you
Don't let them blind you
Let them see you
Don't let them be you
In a fable that's like a dream
Of another man
Or another you

Your eyes are stones
It's too many ways
What are you trying to say
And for too many hours
And you wonder why

Just give it all you know
Guess you're traveling too slow
Never knew when you would be home
Guess you're traveling too slow
Never knew when you would be home
Never knew when you would be home
Never knew when you would be home

Before

If I tell you now what I've done before
Will you still love me like before

Were you here before
I can say I have
Will I take someone like you

I don't need to see, I already know
I can tell you I've seen it all before
Once upon a time was I a silent child, seen it all before
Stop before you run, before you make a run, turn it upside down
Now you're acting out

Will you tell me now what you've done before
Will I take someone like you

I don't need to see, I already know
I can tell you I've seen it all before
Once upon a time was I silent child, seen it all before
Stop before you run, before you make a run, turn it upside down

I don't need to see, I already know
I can tell you I've seen it all before
Once upon a time was I a silent child, seen it all before
Stop before you run, before you make a run, turn it upside down

I don't need to see, I already know
I can tell you I've seen it all before
Once upon a time was I a silent child, seen it all before
Stop before you run, before you make a run, turn it upside down

If

And I am thinking to myself
All that I wanna do
And I am thinking to myself
What I can say to you
And I'm dreaming for myself
Where I would wanna move
(I'm dreaming for myself)
But I am feeling for myself
But I am feeling for myself
And no one else

And I am asking to myself
What did I find in you
And I am asking to myself
Why I just wanted you
And I am dreaming for myself
(Dreaming for myself)
Feeling for myself
And no one else

Turn the light down, moving star
With a long kiss, just be yourself
I see you don't want a mate for life
In the archives of your smile
City nightlife
A day at a time
Treating life with not much care
Living music in the air
Living lifestyles with a smile
Living music in the air
Living lifestyles with a smile, with a smile

And I'm seeing for myself
The times I wanted you
And I'm seeing for myself
This life I chose to choose
(I'm seeing for myself)
And I'm dreaming for myself
Yeah, I'm feeling for myself
And no one else

Turn the light down, moving star
With a long kiss, just be yourself
I see you don't want a mate for life
In the archives of your smile
City nightlife
A day at a time
Treating life with not much care
Living music in the air
Living lifestyles with a smile
Living music in the air
Living lifestyles with a smile, with a smile

3 O'Clock

(3 O'Clock EP)

It's a letter but I don't need to open to read it
You can be sure that I get myself in predicament

Three o'clock, do I call anyone
I don't know if I can get even fake one
Might as well want to get a real thing later

You know, I'm just like anyone
I never said I want to be a hero
You heard me wrong
You got me wrong
You heard me wrong

I knew his name wasn't Johnny
I would tease him, "Hey Joe, what do you know?"
I really liked him, he always had something
Something to tell me

Some nights we'd stay up all night
I'd tell him one long drawn out story
He takes control, he likes the control over me
What is that

Three o'clock, do I want anyone
I don't know if I want it even fake one
Wait a while, want to get a real thing later

You know, I'm just like anyone
I never said I want to be a hero
You got me wrong
You heard me wrong
You heard me wrong

Some nights we'd stay up all night
I'd tell him one long drawn out story
He takes control, he likes the control over me
That is that

I knew his name wasn't Johnny
I would tease him, "Hey Joe, what do you know?"
I really like him, he always has something
He always has something to tell me

( Melodie citronique EP )

Lo sai non sei come me
Sempre sai dove sei
Come sai quanto vuoi di quelche vuoi
Ma io
Invece non voglio svegliare me
Per pensare a te

Uomo o ragazzo?
Passione del gioco
Il fuoco il fosso
Le strade percorse
Di notte ogni giorno
Di sera questa sera
No non svegliare me
Per parlar con te

Voler non essere Chi é e non é
Non sà il piacere
Sa e non sà di sapere
Sa e non sà chi amare

Tu sai gentile sei
Sempre sei come vuoi
Quando sai dove sei

Di quel che vuoi
Ma io
Invece non voglio svegliare me
Ne pensare a te

La furia l'indifferenza
Di chi é e non é
Ogni atto é finzione
Quotidiana emozione
Ma io si io
Non voglio svegliare me
E ne pensare a te

Je suis sur le dos
J'écoute la musique
Sans confiance et catastrophique
J'ai dû me dire c'est juste de la musique
Ca m'épate, mais c'est comme ça.

Y'a quelqu'un
Peux-tu me répondre
Peur de quoi
Jamais tu ne sauras

Tout le monde est vraiment très chiant
Personne ne sera jamais assez bon

Un endroit sûr, je peux imaginer
Un nouveau type serait trop cruel
Incurable paranoia
Hystérique dépression

x xx Alex I'm your only friend
x xx Alex your love will sing for you

Maybe again he will be alone
Guess we're equally damaged
Find your name do it all the same equally
Signal when you can't breathe no more

Say you were me then you could see the view
You'll know we are equally damaged
Don't be a fool, make it easier
You'll learn to say when
Signal if you can't say, "no more"

Don't cross your finger
Sundays will never change
They keep on coming
You'll be a freak
And I'll keep you company

Give Give

(3 O'Clock EP)

Give, give
Give out words without traces
Give, give
Give out love without spaces

Can I come along just to see what I will do
I know it's hard for you to do

Give, give
Give out names without faces
Give, give
Give a hand without phrases

Can I come along just to see what I will do
I know it's hard for you to do
Can I come along just to see what I will see
I know it's hard for you to do

Golden Light

(3 O'Clock EP)

When you call my soul and how it lingers
Like the water trembling in the sun
Not know how it holds ?
Now travel down the life's lonely way

All the memories feeling small
I will wear them all in sacred golden light
Now sail on, your dreams are waiting
On their way to see how they run like the wind

As I ponder, my soul growing fonder
How you take my tears and dry them all
I will take your part in the stillness of the night
Like a bird gliding over troubled sea

All the memories feeling small
I will wear them all in sacred golden light
Now sail on, your dreams are waiting
On their way to see how they run like the wind

Jet star

Street lights have gone out
Desolate lust over me
Left and left and let me go
I watch you close your window

I know you're sound asleep
I know you're sound asleep
Nothing here for me
But I'm yours intensely

I know you're sound asleep
I know you're sound asleep
Nothing here for me
But I'm yours intensely

(we are a real team) Harry & I

( 23 Japanese edition )

Why don't we take the layers off your wall
Why don't we chip away paint off your wall
I dissolve into your love
I tire myself in your arms

Why don't we put the pictures on your wall
Why don't we turn the light on your wall

I wish to be weaving your dream
I wish to be flying around your sky
Walk onto your bridge
Circle around your tree
Walk onto your bridge
Circle around your tree
Your tree, your tree...

Hours

( TV On The Radio featuring Kazu Makino )

You walked around
Said yourself beautiful
Just too bad they stare
Just too bad they stare
Broke up your crown
Called you unusable
See how well you fair
Stole underground
To keep your heart around
Banished from above
Banished from above
Forgot yourself
Go home and shot your health
Left it all for love

And all their lips
Delirious quips
Last seen with friends
Wishing them well
You
You listen for the truth
Just too bad they lied
Just too bad they lied
Oh come around
Inform our future youth
Summon from the sky

The future is cruel
Unusual fools
Leave them to rule in hollow point hell

Now listen to the truth
Cradle and a cry
Cradle and a cry
Your light will shine

Keep your head on high
Keep your head on high

You walk around
Know you are beautiful
Aimless and alive
Broken and defined
Walk around know you are future youth
Summon to the sky

Elle sait je lis pas
Elle sait j'écris pas
Mais ce sont des lettres de Melody
Apprends moi à lire
Apprends moi à écrire
Voilà les choses que tu peux faire pour moi
Ce sont les choses que tu peux faire pour moi
These are the things you can do for me

Pourquoi as-tu tué ce pauvre vieux, Melody
Pourquoi as-tu tué ce pauvre vieux, ma Melody
Elle disait tu n'étais pas bien pour moi
Elle disait tu n'étais pas bien pour moi

Dis-moi ce qu'elle portait ce jour-là, Melody
Et ne montres pas ses mains sur son visage, ma Melody
Elle disait jamais plus je le ferais
Donnes-moi une autre chance
Je dis : Pourquoi n'es-tu pas venu ?
Pourquoi ne l'as-tu pas fait ?

Odiata per le sue virtu

( Melodie citronique EP - Hated Because of Great Qualities, Italian Version )

Segreto scusa se mi son scordata.
Segreto segreti che é destino dimenticar.
Tormentata di essere stata.
Cosi scortese che cosi é stato.
Le bugie vittime della verita.
La mia colpa é tutta qua.
Mi son sbagliata. Cosi é.

Dovunque, ognicosa tutto quel che hai mai sfirato.
Scavere non servira. E semplice si sa.
Eri triste sapendomi sola.
Cosi triste che sei scappato.
Incolpavi solo me quando gia sapevi che.
Non voleva dire niente - E cosi é

No io non capisco e lo so.
No io pronunciario non so.
Sono affari tuoi.
Solo insicurezze.
Non c'é modo di parlane.
Tientelo per te.

Signs along the path

( Silently EP & 23 japanese edition )

You never asked me what I wanted
You only asked me if I loved you
I never asked for what I needed
What I gave you, you didn't need

It’s up to you to leave me
I’ll collect the signs along the way
Along the path

I only give you what I’m made of
You take more than what I give you
You never asked me what I needed
What I gave you, you didn't need it

It's up to you to lead me
I'll collect the signs along the way
Along the path

It's up to you to lead me
I'll collect the signs along the way
Along the path

When the road runs out

(Blonde Redhead And Devastations / Dark Was The Night LP)

Before you leave
Same time next week
I’ll hold you again
Don’t be late
Don’t be late
Baby, don’t be late
Don’t forget when the road
Runs out over you
I’ll marry you
I’ll marry you
I will marry you

All those feet
Getting old
I will wait
You will oh
The way we are
So truthful
These feet
Worry
I’m not so confident
You keep telling me
Be patient
Be patient
I’m not the same girl

Same time
Next week
I’ll hold you again
When the sun comes out
When the road runs out
We sweep through our secrets
And see

La la la la la la
La la la la la la
La la la la la la…

Give me ten minutes
Before you leave

Give me ten minutes
Before you leave

Where Your Mind Wants To Go

(3 O'Clock EP)

If you had an hour
Would you find the flower
Or a fruit that's sour
If you had an hour

Time is what you needed
If I wake you, you might feel too light
Love is what you seeded
That's where your mind wants to go

Seeded to be weeded
By your quiet father
Or your doting mother

Everywhere you look for me
Clouded fields of misted stills
Everything falls in-between
Are you not a dreamer
Are you not a dreamer

If you had the power
If I had the power
I would give you an hour

If it's not me or you, then why
If it's not me or you, then why
If it's not me or you, then why
If it's not me or you, then why
