1.Any Day Now
Touching down, it's a frozen town
Look around, I grew up, I fell down
Nothing changes, nothing changes
Except the red lights
Nobody changes, nobody changes
Wanna see them tonight
Everybody gather 'round
Everybody drink it down
I'm feeling like a one-legged man
Always made to take a stand
Any day now, it will come
I walk in and just laugh it off
And all the heads turn
Familiar faces help me shake the cold off
Everybody gather 'round
Everybody drink it down
I'm feeling like a one-legged man
Always made to take a stand
Any day now, it will come
Sounds like bullshit, but did you ever notice
This whole town of ice and snow
Gets you running
Chasing something
What it is, I'll never know
Just hope one day that it shows
Any day now, it will come
2.Brighter Hell
Whats all this talk about planning for the crisis
I'm not thinking like that at all
Smiley faces are my dionosis
I'm not thinking clear at all (step off)
Hold up crazy one, I know what your thinking cuz
It's not looking great right now
So what's this talk about planning for the crisis
I'm not thinking like that at all
As much as I can say, it's hard for me to stay away
(ever and ever)
As far as any eye can see, you're looking pretty fine to me
(better and better)
As far as I can tell, we're on the road to a brighter hell
(over and over)
As far as I can tell we're on the road to a brighter hell
Fade out, turn me up, wrap your mind around me
For all and everyone to see
What would you say falling from a building?
So far so free.
As much as I can say, it's hard for me to stay away
(ever and ever)
As far as any I can see, you're looking pretty fine to me
(better and better)
As far as I can tell, we're on the road to a brighter hell
(over and over)
As far as I can tell, we're on the road to a brighter hell
3.Come Around
Living life now from my bed
These four walls are my best friends
Broken bottles, broken heart
The time has come, death do us apart
Conversation's always right
When you're talking from both sides
Sometimes I see things that aren't really there
Come on over, if you dare
Screaming to myself, there ain't nobody else
That's it
There ain't nobody listenin', all the walls are
Closing in
Nobody's come around today
The outside world's gone away
Something is burning me (? this is probably wrong)
Nobody's come around today
When you're singing scratchy songs
It makes me think of a time long gone
I'm standin' proud, in a three buttons suit
Sweeter than the forbidden fruit
Screaming to myself, there ain't nobody else
That's it
There ain't nobody listenin', all the walls are
Closing in
Nobody's come around today
The outside world's gone away
Something's burning me
Nobody's come around today
When it comes and it comes
Yeah, it takes so long
When it comes and it comes
It takes so long
Across the street, a boy and a girl
Holding hands in a lover's world
He's so cool with a big wide smile
Well, mine's more handsome, he has more style
Screaming to myself, there ain't nobody else
There ain't nobody listenin'
All the walls are closing in
Nobody's come around today
The outside world's gone away
Something's burning me
Nobody's come around today
4.Do It
Hey mister, didn't mean to be so stupid
And I confess I stole your heart from your chest
Yeah, if I had the chance, I'd put it back somehow
Yeah, I'd do it
Hey missus, you yell amazing contributions
You know that I don't mind, I'm not listening
Know that if I had to light myself on fire, I'd do it
Yeah, I'd do it
Don't you dare shove me away
Look over your shoulder
'Cause I'm coming over
Hey missus, can I call when I'm away?
I know that you don't mind, but I'm asking anyway
Yeah, and if I had to light myself on fire, I'd do it
Yeah, I'd do it (for you)
Don't you dare shove me away
Look over your shoulder
'Cause I'm coming over
Here I sit and here I stay
This loneliness is eating me away
This loneliness is eating me,
It's forcing me, it's feeding me
This loneliness is eating me away
Don't you dare shove me away
Look over your shoulder
'Cause I'm coming over
And I'm falling down,
Seems like I've been, seems like I've been there
Before
5.He's Gone
Dreamt I turned my head around last night
when I got up, saw you sleeping
yeah, you were shaking
What am I to do
I've lost my father now
Will I be alright
yeah, will I make it
You're still in my life today
You're still in my thoughts, okay
You're still in my life today
You're still in my life
Who on God's great earth
can take a life of strength and fire
and just start weakening
From the outside in
What I'm thinking now
I'm taking all the blame for
It's a bit relieving
you leaving
You're still in my life today
You're still in my thoughts, okay
You're still in my life today
You're still in my life today
I'm sad he's gone
Sad he's gone
Sad he's gone
oh
How can I survive without my friend of mine
He was not perfect
Yet somehow perfect
What am I to do I've lost that part of me
Will I be alright
yeah, will I make it
You're still in my life today
You're still in my thoughts, okay
You're still in my life today
You're still in my life today
I'm sad he's gone
Sad he's gone
Sad he's gone
oh
Nothing's ever as bad as it seems
to be
and I know
I've been taken by my wicked dreams
oh
oh
Sad he's gone
Sad he's gone
Sad he's gone
oh
6.I'm Waiting
Life is moving by so slowly
I'm tired of waiting for it all
Escaping just before the morning
It seems like the time is here now.
I'm waiting
For a little kiss-and-tell
Baby likes to run like hell
Hoping for a quiet moment
Baby likes to hear them roar for me
I'm waiting
Get all over me
My brains gone down and Christ it's raining
I can't feel anything at all
Won't you stop your fool complaining?
'Cause I can't hear anything at all
I'm waiting
For a little kiss-and-tell
Baby likes to run like hell
Hoping for a quiet moment
Baby likes to hear them roar...
What I mean is
I'm scared
What I'm saying is
I'm scared
The wind's gone out of all my sailing
But I'll jump overboard with you
The happy times are here forever
Or for at least an hour or two
I'm waiting
7.On My Way
Change yourself, not me
Vicious fighter, all agreed
Nervous anger, scotch hard water
I've recovered...
I've grown up big and strong
On my way back home
Wear my halo- it'll make you see like me
I fell hard though- but I'll get back up on, you'll see
I've grown up big and strong
On my way back home
In my town, I remember
A fall to bring my mind down
Paid my tolss, conscience cleared, my conscience is clearer
I've grown up big and strong
On my way back home
I've lost my place here now
I've got no place at all
It's always the same story, always
Seven times the man I'll ever be
Like a god on Sunday
I kiss the barrel...
All gone now
I've grown up big and strong
On my way back home
8.Rooster
Hey, I got this wonderous feeling
Hey, I'm in this place
Hey, I'm waking up and I need something
And it seems quite simple
For us common people
It's all the rage where I am
Wait and see, it'll change you
All aboard, rooster awaits you
Woke up wrong this morning
Couldn't talk to anyone
Help me out, I'm slave to the and I need something
Wait and see, it'll cure you
All aboard, rooster awakes you
Wait and see, it'll change you
All aboard, rooster awakes you
And it seems quite simple
For all you common people
It's all the rage where I am
Wait and see, it'll cure you
All aboard, rooster, I'll take you
Wait and see, it'll change you
All aboard, rooster awaits you
9.Say Something
And then crept the sunshine
gently touched my face
Kind of woke me with its grace
Rolled myself over
Prayed that you were there
My first day without you there
Everything's so quiet
Since you just closed your eyes, left me here behind
On my... whoa...
Say something, my dear
Say something dear
Flowed my way downstairs
Hoping it's a dream
But I don't wake up when I scream
Just how many mornings
Did I wake with you?
I need some more to see me through
Everything's so strange now
You just closed your eyes, left me here behind
On my... whoa....
Say something, my dear
Say something dear
And all the wise ones say you're wrong
You lose no sleep from those who've gone
And have no fear, they will go
But I never let go, never let go
It's 4 am now
I can't close my eyes
Too scared to lie here without the lights
The second night without you
Is no better than the first
I pray the third one won't be worse
Want you to say........
Say something, my dear
Say something dear
10.Silent Radar
I'm alone and I'm tired
I'm afraid and I'm tired
I'm away trying not to see
What the day brings on out of me
I'll stay right here
Gotta silent radar watching you
I'm the same, yeah, I'm alright
Still alone no one's been by
Ashamed trying not to be
In my mind I'll always (be) (need) you right here
Silent radar watching you (me)
I'm thinking it over (I'm sure I'll find)
At the best of times I'm the (better life to live) Lucky one
Getting closer and closer
Silent radar sees everyone
Better kind of way of life to live
I haven't changed but I'm trying
In my mind I'll always be right here (hear)
11.Stereo
My life is a stereo, how loud does it go
What songs do I know
What happened to my plans
What ever happened to the life I thought I'd have
My life is a stereo, kind of cheaply made though
How bad does it show
What ever happened to my friends
What ever happened to the likes of all of them
My life is a stereo, turn me on and let's go
Turn me up louder
I'll scream as loud and clear as I can scream
If you like what you're hearing hang on to me
I like being here and I'm all hooked up wrong
Hang on to me though - I'm one in a million
And my lights are like candles
I'm so afraid of new technology
I'm in the race and I don't wanna be
Can we stop pretending put it off on me
I'm in the race
Life ends in a stereo, pack pack me up and let's go
Put me anywhere
Please don't think of leaving me behind
Whatever happens to you, I'll get out just fine
12.Top of the World
Where did you go?
I counted all the way to ten
You were nowhere around
Wrapped my eyes with both my hands
Stood and listened
Nowhere around
Made my peace with myself,
Now I'm gonna find you- but right now you're not around (I tell
you)
Where'd you go? Where'd you go?
Put on my halo
Makes me feel angelic too
Gives me reason, takes me up to you
I'm feeling okay,
Used to be happier
Now there's something the matter
Understanding myself
Is the only way to find you but right now you're not around (I
tell you).
Where'd you go? Where'd you go?
Now, top of the world top of the world,
My feet are hanging down down down
Not in synch with my friends,
Well, I'll find you- but right now you're not around (I tell
you)
Where'd you go? Where'd you go?
