1.Hopeful Hearts
So, we take the path not taken
Down into the fields of war.
Sword alone, the shield foresaken
This is the right we're fighting for.
Hopeful hearts are moving targets
I don't know how I survive
We go out like birthday candles
Then like suns we rise
We rise.
Oh, struggle is right
What's black is white
The moment you fall
You fly.
Give us your dead
They live again
Oh hopeful hearts.
Fiends and devils in the gardens
Take their fill and leave me scarred
But I still have my secret weapon
This, my brave and hopeful heart.
Oh, struggle is right
What's black is white
The moment you fall
You fly.
Give us your dead
They live again
Oh hopeful hearts.
Oh, struggle is right
What's black is white
The moment you fall
You fly.
Give us your dead
They live again
Oh hopeful hearts
2.Get Home
You can stay the night,
You can look me in the eye.
You can fake your way to the finish line.
Don't you dare profess to love me
When you're lying to another
That's not love, that's just wishing
Wish and love are not the same thing, yeh.
Get home, get home
Take a look at her
You know, you know
That you love her.
Mr Masquerade
Getting good at this charade
Go on fool yourself, talk of poetry
Don't you dare pretend you're sorry
To me, you're just a tourist
Gotta stand next to the real ones
Cos you know you'll never be one, yeh.
Get home, get home
Nothing more to say
You know, you know
That you'll never change
Oh, you'll never change
And I don't play the game
With liars and cowards,
Liars and cowards.
Liars and cowards.
Like you.
Get home, get home
Nothing more to say
You know, you know
That you'll never change
Oh, you'll never change
And I don't play the game
With liars and cowards,
Liars and cowards.
Liars and cowards.
Like you.
With liars and cowards,
Liars and cowards.
Liars and cowards.
Like you
3.Euphoria
Take me, love me,
Invade the portions of me
That are dark, and warm, and deep.
Hero or zero, I'm glad that you're here.
So take you're love and take you're leave.
Now, how will I feel asleep?
I'm onto ya
Euphoria
You built the maze
In my lover's face
I'm onta ya
Euphoria
This state of grace
I could have held him
But alas the dawn compelled him
To walk into the street
His arms are swingin'
And maybe he is singin'
With those lips that taste of me.
How am I supposed to fall asleep?
I'm onta ya
Euphoria
You built the maze
In my lover's face
Oh, I'm onta ya
Euphoria
I'm onta ya
Euphoria
You built the maze
In my lover's face
Oh, I'm onta ya
Euphoria
This state of grace
4.Goodnight Trouble
I watch the late night planes,
leave cool, white trails
And my troubles took flight
Goodnight troubles, goodnight.
I kissed my friend
He took my hand.
My troubles took flight
Goodnight troubles, goodnight.
Goodnight.
Goodnight, goodnight.
Free-falling now
In my place among the clouds
Yeh, my trouble, it took flight
Goodnight trouble, goodnight.
'Night.
Goodnight, goodnight.
My troubles, goodnight
5.Notes From The Underground
Notes from the underground
Where the mice must write our lives down.
In the night, I hear you calling out to say
It's all right, love, you're in good hands
Tears on a borrowed bed
'Tween walls that are painted somebody else's red.
If you hear me cry out, calling out to say
It's all right love, you're in good hands
Still out on the roof
Howling at the moon
Exiles
Another exile in the kingdom
Still out on the roof
All I need is you
Exiles
Oh, we are exiles
We two.
Love with the love they hide.
Dream with the dream the cast aside.
Oh the truth will form and fall apart again.
It's all right love, you're in good hands.
Still out on the roof
Howling at the moon
Exiles
Another exile in the kingdom
Still out on the roof
All I need is you
Exiles
Oh, we are exiles
We two.
They don't trust the likes of you and I
They kick our verses aside
But we know the road is wide, that's why
Still out on the roof
Howling on the moon
Exiles
Another exile in the kingdom
Still out on the roof
I'm a dreamer too
Exiles
We are exiles
We two
6.Sound Of Water - Change Your Mind
Just to hear the sound of water
Just to put the fire on ice
I am lying down in the shower
Oh mercy loosen the vice
Sometimes the sword is so heavy
My pain has a ravenous smile
In the pits of mine own making
Sometimes I don think Il ever get out
Oh, the world stoking the comas
Madmen making the news
Bent over like a beggar
I was saying it no use
This isn a world for (urgent?) women
Unless you like swimming
Your own dark sea
These are times for urgent rhymes
But where the poetry?
The light
The light is hard to find
Youe walking blind
You only need to change your mind
Your mind
Wide awake and hope and think
I became a glittering queen
Every light in my direction
Was a bright, magnificent green
Adorned with invisible riches
I saw my stitches glowing so bright
No, the burden was not heavy
For the master it was night
But, the light
Light is hard to find
When youe walking blind
You only need to change your mind
You only need to change your mind
Your
When the light
The light is hard to find
When youe walking, walking blind
The light
The light is hard to find
When youe walking blind
You only need to change your mind
You only need to change your mind
Your mind
7.No Place At All
No place at all to call my own
Still wandering the world
And friends of mine all moving on
In comfortable cars, getting married
In someone else's neighbourhood
I hear a telephone
Who lives in those well lighted homes?
Their windows aglow in evening
Look at me crying in my sleep
No one else to rescue me
No place at all
The sun goes down beyond the trees
The sound or trace of wind
The world is calm and beautiful
But it's breaking my heart completely
Look at me crying in my sleep
No one else to recue me
It's plain to see
I am no place at all
I am no place at all
No place
No place
At all
Look at me crying in my sleep
No one else to rescue me
It's plain to see
Could it be that I am following this revelry
To nowhere and to nobody
To no place at all
Till no place at all
8.Please Be Good To Me
9.Willow
Willow tree by the sea
Where the guards lie
How I love to look at you
With all my aching lie
Winter comes winter kills
Let it go by
There'll be better days
Willow
Don't cry
Willow star shine afar in a dark sky
You're the one I'm wishing on
With all my weary mind
Tell the trees if you please
That it is alright
There'll be better days
Willow
Don't cry
River bend
River sigh
River so wide
Wash away the worry
From my lonely heart tonight
Lover comes
Lover goes
Let him go by
There'll be better days
Willow
Don't cry
10.So Many Miles
11.Shadowland
I have been to the shadowland
I heard the empty call
The hatred anorexia
Misery and alcohol
By their hearths I warmed myself
To escape from the winter years
until I saw in the window myself
crying fire coloured tears
Love the only alchemy
Love the killer of despair
Love the patient samurai
Love the armour angles wear
Love
They turned away the prophet
Because she was young and full of longing
Instead they turned to the magistrate
Who was busying yawning
And they tried the sell me holy books
And I can see their eyes are wild
I caught them boring shame and fear
Into the perfect vessel of a child
But, love is the only alchemy
Love the killer of despair
Love the true nobility
Love the armour angles wear
Love
Love will make your eyes clear
The order of the universe
The only reason we are here
12.Looking For Someone
I've been looking for someone
But, I don't know his name
Oh, the faces before me
Well they all look the same
But, there's got to be one face
And one pair of eyes
That will light me on fire
When their looking in mine
I am looking for someone
I am looking for someone
For many good years now
I've been walking alone
But I know when I find him
It will feel like home
The wedding is over
I will be able to say
I am so glad that I waited for this day
Oh, I am looking for someone
Oh, I am looking for someone
Oh, I am looking for someone
Who's looking for me.
When the wedding is over
I'll be able to say
I am so glad that I waited for this day
Oh, looking for someone
Oh, looking for someone
Oh, looking for someone
Who's looking for me.
