A L'OMBRE DE NOUS (IN OUR SHADOW) (F. Lai / P. Barouh)
A l'ombre de nous
Restera toujours
Au noms de l'amour
Un gout d'eternite
Au nom de notre amour
Une ombre va rester
Cette ombre de nous
Combien de soleils
Brulant netre ciel
Ont du se concerter
Qu'au nom de ces soleils
Une ombre va rester
Ces soleils...
Ils sont si chauds
Ils sont si forts
Qu'ils nous brulent
Et qu'ils nous devorent
Encore, encore, encore...
Ils ont des noms de pacotille
L'amour, le respect, la folie
C'est la confiance et le courage
C'est le bleu des livres d'images
C'est tout ce que tu attends de moi
C'est tout ce que j'attends do toi
A l'ombre de nous
Ne pourra fleurir
Aux jours a venir
Pien d'autre que beaute
Meme en pensant au pire
Une ombre va rester
Cette ombre de nous
Les mille soleils
D'un amour pareil
N'y pourrant rien changer
Car des premiers soleils
Une ombre va rester
Ces soleils...
Ils sont si chauds
Ils sont si forts
Qu'ils nous brulent
Et qu'ils nous devorent
Encore, encore, encore...
Ils ont des noms qui font sourire
C'est la passion, c'est le delire
C'est la pananche et la tendresse
C'est le bleu de notre jeunesse
C'est tout ce qui, a jamais, vivra...
A l'ombre de nous
ATMOSPHERE (Joy Division)
Walk in silence
Don't walk away - in silence
See the danger - always danger
Endless talking - life rebuilding
Don't walk away
Walk in silence
Don't turn away - in silence
Your confusion - my illusion
Worn like a mask of self-hate
Confronts and then dies
Don't walk away
People like you, find it easy
Naked to see - walking on air
Hunting by the rivers, through the streets, every corner
Abandoned too soon
Set down with due care
Don't walk away - in silence
Don't walk away
BARELY REAL
Don't you have to speak now?
Not just look and half smile
All I want's to feel
That I'm barely real
I feel like string
I feel like nothing
Who's the silence for now?
Can your heart still hold
Everything...
Untold?
I feel like string
I feel like nothing
BROKEN-HEARTED WINE
In spring time
When you haven't got a dime
Yeah, in spring time
And life seems a crime
Come on over
Cry on my shoulder, and drink
Broken-hearted wine
Tastes fine
In the spring time
Broken-hearted wine
Tastes fine
So you finally see her face at last, and the pain will never pass
You thought she was the only girl in the whole wide world for you
You can come on over
Cry on my shoulder, and drink
Broken-hearted wine
Tastes fine
In the spring time
Broken-hearted wine
Tastes fine
So you don't know what to do
There's just one cure for you
In spring time
When there isn't any reason
Or rhyme
To thinkin'
That you'll be mine
So come on over
Cry on my shoulder, and drink
Broken-hearted wine
Tastes fine
In the spring time
Broken-hearted wine
Tastes fine
In the spring time
CASTLE
There's a castle in her heart
The walls go up for miles
There's a tower
You can see everything
But she shows you nothing
You can see everything
See up to heaven
And there's a couch
But the TV's somehow wrong
Nothing seems to fit
Everything that's good is hid
She's the king in Wittgenstein's world
She's the king in Wittgenstein's world
There's a castle
In her heart
Where she keeps everything...
Apart
The walls go up for miles
The walls go up for miles
CAVE-IN
Last night I dreamt your face
The skin was falling off
The flesh was turning grey
This is a cave-in
I said I'd stay
Cave-in
Said I'd stay
Last night I had a dream
Your eyes were lit by fire
The way you tried to smile
The way you couldn't smile
This is a cave-in
I said I'd stay
Cave-in
Said I'd stay
These things take so long
So let me help it some
These things take so long
So let me help it some
CIGARETTE MACHINE
Dry heave doubt
From a little old dragon's mouth
Split lip and split tongue
Finally, cross-eyed
She stands next to the cigarette machine
This device has got it made, she thinks
It has a cast-iron stomach, but a candle for a heart
Odd the way the very stuff falls out
Hard the way it makes you doubt
This thing leaps up, complains, full of bile
Not even star-crossed, just unlucky
Odd how the very stuff falls out
Hard the way it makes you smile
This things leaps up, complains
Not even star-crossed, just unlucky
CRACKED IN TWO [demo]
So, go your own way
Don't forget
That you're only
Cracked in two
What can you do?
Cracked in two
What can you do?
(?) just the only way to see
Things end the hard way
What can you do?
What can you do?
What can you do?
Cracked in two
So, go your own way
But don't forget
That you're only
Cracked in two
What can you do?
Cracked in two
What can you do?
D
D for effort
D for intent
D because you pay the rent
D for love
D for insight
D because you're heaven set
I want you to need me - not to feed me
I want you to need me - not to feed me
D for dishes
F for floors
Can't make the grade anymore
D for love
D for intent
D because you pay the rent
You kick my head
Lying on your ten - your ten foot bed
You say you're all alone, that's just 'cause, you don't want anybody home
See a smile, make it sad
Take it all so bad.
GRAVEL BED
John thinks I've been sad enough
But I just can't agree
It's not so sad for me
Things I thought might come true
They never do
They never do
Once stood on a shore so grand
Slept in a gravely bed
In a kingdom so pure
In a kingdom so pure
HARD TO FIND
A good friend is hard to find
But you'll have one if you open your eyes
A good friend is hard to find
I found you
Will you be mine?
And time will show
Time will show
A good friend is hard to find
But you'll have one if you open your eyes
A good friend is hard to find
I found you
Will you be mine?
And time will show
Time will show
And time will show
Time will SHOW
But not me
IDES
Silver clouds
Fill my mind
Can't watch the trees
Can't go outside
Don't go outside
Something's got in
Into my eye
A warning sign
I don't want
To know why
A warning sign
JR
Threw my bike off the road
And lie in the grass
The hot winds blow
Promises I'll never know
Dumb at twelve
With a delinquent mind
The sky turned yellow-blue
Like a week-old bruise
These days things loom above me
My head is empty
My tongue and lips
Are swollen
KITCHEN LIGHT / RUMBLEFISH
First a kiss, then a fall
Some pale shade takes it all
Tangled up in a knot
One foot free, one foot caught
Light the stove with a match
I just wait, I just think
I'm so sad, I can't stand
I can't stand, I can't stand
LOSS LEADER
Loss leader, losing sight of the shore
Can't take this loss loop anymore, anymore
Water - running down
Water - running down
Now things taste kind of bitter
Two muddy shoes, far from home, far from home
Water - running down
Water - running down - running down
And as I walk back
I feel the moon against my neck
MEDIAN
Thinking 'bout the New Year
All the dirt it'll attract
Kicked apart the last one
Glad to see it done
I want days so perfect
Perfect in ways I've never seen
Wearing leaden frames
Grim and pure, like me
Counting up your blessings
Think of all the things you lack
Counting down to zero, zero
And you'll never get it back
A lot of heads need breaking
But I know that thought is wrong
Things might turn against me
Then again, I'd do the same
One foot on the platform
One foot on the train
NEW YEAR'S (Lexi Mitchell/Sooyoung Park)
Bad to feel the way I am
Today is another day, you do what you can
I feel so sad, so bad today
That all our friends have gone away
Here in my castle, lines crease me face
Take them away, take them far away
I feel so sad, so bad today
That all our friends have gone away
OLD THINGS
Walk, just walk away
And throw old things away
Things don't last too long
But when they do
They last too long
Walk, just walk away
And throw old things away
I, I thought I tried
But what, what does that mean?
Walk, just walk away
And throw old things away
Nothing sticks to you
Not even what you want to
PEA
When I see the sun
I hope it shines on me
And gives me everything...well, almost
Some people seem
To be just small hard peas
Sometimes I think it's me
I try so hard for bruises on your back - just to get you back
I try so hard for bruises on your back, tiny and mean
Just to get you back
Just to get you back
Just to get you back
Just to get you back
When I see the sun
I hope it shines on me
And gives me everything
To be one mile high
Then I would kill you all
What I gave to you, just meant nothing
When I see the sun
I hope it shines on me
And gives me everything
When I see the sun
I hope it shines on me
And gives me everything...well, almost
PICKUP SONG
Don't remember your kiss
Can't remember what I miss
Thought you were blind, I held your hand
Guess I still don't understand
Wish I'd never seen your face
PROMISE OF LOVE (MX-80 Sound)
Let me be the angel
Let me be the prettiest girl
I'll stand between you
And the rest of the world
Let me be your sun
Let me be your star
You could never disappoint me, because
Your who you are
If I could be the angel
If I could be the prettiest girl
Every tear you've ever cried
Would all be turned to pearls
I I could be your sun
If I could be your star
You'd be safe and free from harm
No matter where you are
You only make me proud
As if you were my son
And the bells
They ring for you
REALIZE
On a quiet afternoon
Staring out of your room
Feeling blue
What am I gonna do?
Look at me, just with your eyes
Try to realize
Look at me, just with your eyes
Try to realize
Coffee's there
On the floor
From the night before
Shades are drawn
Against the sun
Where is everyone?
Look at me, just with your eyes
Try to realize
Look at me, just with your eyes
Try to realize
SEA
A white ship sails on a black sea
Takes my love from me
And it takes so long
But then I understand
I understand
Put your hand in my good hand
Promise not to leave this dry and barren land
And it takes so long
But then I understand
I understand
SECOND CHANCE
I miss your smile - it's been a while
It's been a while
First chance is rare - seconds don't ever dare
Seconds don't ever dare
I miss your smile - it's been a while
It's been a while
SMOKING ROOM
Spent afternoons
In the smoking room
The things that I said then
Still make me burn with shame
The world is frozen now
It glitters, sparkles, and shines
SOMETHING NEW
Something new
Can't complain what you do
Leaves fall like trees
Told you - it wasn't me
Tell it to your friends
Say, "This is the end."
I see your friends
They know it's the end
Don't take long
For bright things to go wrong
But just when
All depends
Tell it to your friends
Say, "This is the end."
I see your friends
Guess this is the end
SURE LOOKS THAT WAY (Gerry Hannah)
"This is a cover of a song by Gerry Hannah, previously of the Vancouver, B.C. band the Subhumans. "Sure Looks That Way" is from a cassette of his called 'Songs from the Underground', recorded while he was in prison, I think around 1985."
3 ANGELS
Three angels - holes in their socks
Three angels - holes in their socks
I'll take the one on the right
You take the one on the left
One in the middle
One to forget
Take a walk - 'round the block
Take a walk - 'round the block
Three angels - holes in their socks
Two to play
One to sing
They know everything
Take a walk - 'round the block
Take a walk - 'round the block
TOM
My words have broken throats
Too ashamed to speak
Afflicted by disease
They are so weak
I'll throw sand in your eye
You need a reason to cry
I'll throw sand in your eye
I need a reason to smile
I went to school to learn
But it didn't work
How do you learn to try
Why can't I?
I'll throw sand in your eye
You need a reason to cry
I'll throw sand in your eye
I need a reason to smile
VACANCY
Dream in black and white
Model cities, shooting up, in the sky
Did they go to sleep, just to die, just to drown, in the air?
Look under the bed
There's no ghosts, that I can see
Tires burning
Can't go back there
Can't go forward
What does the word vacany mean, when you don't expect anything?
Don't even try to justify, there's no way to justify
WASHED UP
Slowly build
A pile a bones
Once sucked down
Now come ashore
Things
keep washing up
Keep washing
Keep washing up
In the sky
Spotlights search
The ghosts of birds
The ghosts of things gone by
How can we live?
Forget but not forgive?
WIRD
The way is dark
And I am tired and small
Under my skin
Sing lonely wires
Who built
Who built this machine?
This mechanism
This misery
I wanna walk
But I have to crawl
It's colder now
And I have lost my way
