I FEEL IT COMING AROUND
AND I SEE YOU'RE COMING DOWN
FROM OVER HERE YOU LOOK SO GOOD
BUT UP CLOSE YOU ARE A SHAME
I KNOW I CAN SHOW YOU THINGS
THAT MAKE YOUR EYES BLEED
I KNOW I CAN SHOW YOU THINGS
THAT MAKE YOU SMILE
SIT DOWN ON THE BIG CHAIR
JUST SIT THERE LOOK AND STARE
FROM OVER HERE YOU LOOK UPTIGHT
YOU'RE CRASHING LIKE A KITE
I KNOW I CAN SHOW YOU THINGS
THAT MAKE YOUR EYES BLEED
I KNOW I CAN SHOW YOU THINGS
THAT MAKE YOU SMILE
JUST LOOK AND YOU'LL SEE THE TRUTH
JUST LOOK AT YOURSELF
WE'RE ALL LOOKING AT YOU
I KNOW I CAN SHOW YOU THINGS
THAT MAKE YOUR EYES BLEED
I KNOW I CAN SHOW YOU THINGS
THAT MAKE YOU SMILE
I KNOW I CAN SHOW YOU THINGS
THAT MAKE YOUR EYES BLEED
I KNOW I CAN SHOW YOU THINGS
THAT MAKE YOU SMILE

STAND UP FOR YOU

WHERE ARE YOU WHEN I'M COLD ON THE COAST
ARE YOU FEELING SAD I DON'T KNOW I DON'T KNOW
IF YOU ASKED ME TO SMILE FOR YOU
I COULD DROP ALL THIS RIGHT NOW
TELL ME WHAT TO DO
AND I COULD STAND UP FOR YOU
LIKE I KNOW I SHOULD DO
AND I COULD BE THERE FOR YOU
IF YOU'D REMIND ME
FROM WELL OVER TOWN I COULD SEE YOUR HOTEL
STANDING THERE SHOULD I STAY SHOULD I GO?
IN THE DEEP SEA I CAN'T HEAR A SOUND
TEAR THE SCABS FROM MY KNEES
LEAVE ME HERE IN THE GROUND
AND I COULD STAND UP FOR YOU
LIKE I KNOW I SHOULD DO
AND I COULD BE THERE FOR YOU
IF YOU'D REMIND ME
NO MORE TUMMY ACHES
NO MORE STAYING UP LATE

DREAMS OF YOU

|
|||
|
DON'T LOOK AT ME WITH YOUR SMOKEY EYES
DON'T TALK TO ME WITH A CROOKED SMILE
I KNOW WHERE YOU'RE COMING FROM
AND I KNOW WHER EYOU'RE GOING WITH THIS
AND DREAMS OF YOU
ARE WASTING ON A SHELF SOMEWHERE
THE MEMORIES
FADE LIKE CHRISTMAS AFTERNOONS
DON'T LOOK AT ME WITH YOUR SMOKEY EYES
DON'T TALK TO ME
YOU JUST MAKE ME TIRED
I KNOW WHERE YOU'RE COMING FROM
AND I KNOW WHER EYOU'RE GOING WITH THIS
AND DREAMS OF YOU
ARE WASTING ON A SHELF SOMEWHERE
THE MEMORIES
FADE LIKE CHRISTMAS AFTERNOONS
I KNOW WHERE YOU'RE COMING FROM
AND I KNOW WHER EYOU'RE GOING WITH THIS
AND DREAMS OF YOU
ARE WASTING ON A SHELF SOMEWHERE
THE MEMORIES
FADE LIKE CHRISTMAS AFTERNOONS

KEEP A PROMISE
03:13
|

|
I'M LOOKING FOR THE MAN
TO CRUCIFY THE PLAN
THE CHARMINGNESS OF YOU
YOU'RE CHARMING THROUGH AND THROUGH
SOME KIND OF PREMONITION
JUST EMPLY WORDS ON A BROKEN TELEVISION
I'M HERE TO KEEP A PROMISE
I'M HERE TO MAKE YOU PROUD
I'M LOOKING FOR THE MAN
TO FIX THIS FAKING TAN
RIPPED UP PICTURES IN MY ROOM
I JUST SIT AND THINK OF YOU
SOME KIND OF PREMONITION
JUST EMPLY WORDS ON A BROKEN TELEVISION
I'M HERE TO KEEP A PROMISE
I'M HERE TO MAKE YOU PROUD
SOME KIND OF PREMONITION
JUST EMPLY WORDS ON A BROKEN TELEVISION
I'M HERE TO KEEP A PROMISE
I'M HERE TO MAKE YOU PROUD

OF BITTERSWEET THINGS

FORGOT THEY ARE DEAD INSIDE
IN YOUR ARMS

HAS HAD HIS FUN
IN THE PAST

THERE ARE THIGNS IN MY MIND
THERE ARE THINGS THAT I NEED TO KNOW
WILL YOU BE THERE AT MY SHOW
I SANG YOU A LITTLE SONG
ON YOUR KNEES YOU SANG ALONG
FROM NOW ON THERE'S NO BAD NEWS
FROM NOW ON THERE'S NO WEIGHT ON YOU
IT'S SO EASY
IT'S SO EASY
WELL I'M WITH YOU ALL THE TIME
YOU FELL FROM MY HEAD AND IN TO MY LIFE
I FOUND YOU ON A SHELF

HEAVEN THEMED PARTIES

|
TRY TO WALK A DAY IN YOUR SHOES
I CANNOT DO THAT
I LOSE MY WAY BACK
NOT TO PUT TOO FINE A POINT ON
JUST BEING ALONE
I AM ALONE
IN YOUR ARMS
IT'S NOT THE SAME
IN YOUR ARMS
I'M NOT TO BLAME
CANNOT LOOK IN TO YOUR EYES
I'M BLUE AS THE SEA
WHAT'S THIS THING FALLING AWAY
BETWEEN YOU AND ME
WHAT ARE YOU THINKING RIGHT NOW
I'M DYING TO KNOW
FALLING APART AT THE SEAMS
BUT PRETTY LIKE SNOW
IN YOUR ARMS
IT'S NOT THE SAME
IN YOUR ARMS
I'M NOT TO BLAME
UNIMAGINABLY HAPPY TODAY
HEAVEN THEMED PARTIES
THEY BLANKET MY SADNESS AWAY
IN YOUR ARMS
IT'S NOT THE SAME
IN YOUR ARMS
I'M NOT TO BLAME

COME ON TO MY PLACE
03:10
|
|||
|
SOMETIMES IT GETS TOO MUCH FOR YOU
JUST REMEMBER WHO YOU ARE
NO ONE ELSE DOES IT LIKE YOU DO
YOU'RE THE ONLY ONE WHO CAN
SO COME ON TO MY PLACE
COME ON TO MY PLACE
NO ONE ELSE TOLD YOU WHAT TO DO
SO TAKE IT AS YOU LIKE
AND ANYTHING GOES DOWN THIS STREET
MY FUCKING NAME IS MIKE
SO COME ON TO MY PLACE
COME ON TO MY PLACE

WHEN YOU ARE GONE
04:11
|
|||
|
I WILL NOT BE SAD WHEN YOU ARE GONE
BECAUSE I KNOW THAT I'LL SEE YOU AGAIN
SOMEWHERE SOMEHOW
I COUGHED UP MY VOICE
MY HEAD CAVED IN
I LOST MY MIND
SAILED ON A WHIM
I SAW YOUR FACE
ON A BUS
I THINK IT WAS YOU
SEAL THE VOLCANO
LOCK THE CELLAR DOOR
COME BACK TOMORROW
WASH UP ON THE SHORE
YOU YOU ARE NO FUN
THE WAY YOU RUN
YOU ARE NO FUN
GIVE ME THE GUN
SO I CAN RUN
FAR FROM HERE
FAR FROM YOU
IT'S ALL IN YOUR HEAD
COLLAPSE ON THE BED
PRETEND I'M DEAD
SEAL THE VOLCANO
LOCK THE CELLAR DOOR
COME BACK TOMORROW
WASH UP ON THE SHORE
SEAL THE VOLCANO
LOCK THE CELLAR DOOR
COME BACK TOMORROW
WASH UP ON THE SHORE

WITH PINS AND NEEDLES IN HIS BANDS
HE PROCEEDED TO LIE ON THE FLOOR
"I DON'T WANT THIS" HE CRIED
"PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE LEAVE"
SO WE WENT HOME
WE WENT HOME
"I'LL HAVE TO LOVE YOU THEN LEAVE YOU"
I SAID THEN HEADED FOR THE CAR
"ITS GOING NOWHERE REAL FAST
JUST STANDING AND DRINKING AT THE BAR"
SO WE WENT HOME
WE WENT HOME
WE WENT HOME
SO WE WENT HOME
SO WE WENT HOME
WE WENT HOME
WE WENT HOME
SO WE WENT HOME
SO WE WENT HOME
WE WENT HOME
WE WENT HOME
SO WE WENT HOME
