1.Who's Been Sleeping
(chorus)
Who's been sleeping in my dreams
Who's been living in my head
Meet me when tomorrow's gone
Life could be wonderful
You'll always find a friend
There's a cure for everything
Before the morning comes
Life could be wonderful
Wishing i was dreaming
Spending all my money
Till it's gone
You don't smile so sweetly
I can't keep a secret
Anymore
And i could reach the sky
If i could stop myself from falling down the stairs
Chorus
Watching from my window
Standing in the shadows
For too long
Watching when you're sleeping
You don't really mean it
Anymore
And i could reach the sky
If i could stop myself from falling down the stairs
Chorus twice
Who's been sleeping
Who's been living in my head
Who's been sleeping...
Who's been living...
2.Closer Than The Sun
A summer breeze
A sleepy head
A woken dream
An empty bed
A lazy smile
A broken life
A bitter moon
A velvet sky
A golden hour
A perfect curve
A travelled mine
A curse of love
A stolen day
A moment's calm
A storm of doubt
A false alarm
(chorus)
Closer than the sun
Life has come and gone
Fading in the shadows
Like a summer smile
Sleeping for a while
No-one knows tomorrow
A lost embrace
A sinner's pride
A loser's chase
A bitter bride
A frozen blade
A water's edge
A heavy sigh
A wilderness
A fight for life
A fading sky
A fleeting glance
A perfect crime
A journey's end
A dying flame
A promised land
A final game
Chorus
Dancing like a breeze upon your soul that sprinkles every single
waking hour
Woken like a dream before its time forever preying on your mind
Dancing like a breeze upon your sould that sprinkles every
single waking hour
Woken like a dream before its time forever preying on your mind
Life's dirt and dreams, tattered and torn
Cracked and fragmented, weary and worn
Seet as a lulluby, hushed as a baby's cry
I'm only sleeping for a while
Sweet as a lullaby, hushed as a baby's cry
Fresh from the memory of wanting you, of needing you
I will return, we're almost there
I will return
3.Sugar Free
Do you ever really stop to wonder
Playing games that you play
That our dreams couldn't last any longer
While the world passed us by
You took my dreams and destroyed them completely
Dying in the morning light
Don't want to be just another trip you step over
Now we're running out of time
(chorus)
You've grown so cold, so low
I just can't stand it any longer
You won't find a taste so sweet
Forever gonna be sugar free
You've given in to lies and suspicion
A lonely way to survive
Now you're forever looking over your shoulder
Until your last breath of life
Baby will you ever stop till you're someone
Or find a place to belong
Dying to clear a space in all this confusion
Before the sweetness is gone
Chorus
Where's the love like jesus
The shiver of the flesh pleases
Even the coldest soul makes you whole
Count me in, one to ten
Discrete and sentimental
Warm as a gentle breeze outside
See your reflection in my black eyes
Chorus twice
Where's the love like jesus
The shiver of the flesh pleases
Even the coldest soul makes you whole
Count me in, from one to ten
Discrete and sentimental
Warm as a gentle breeze
Ask my ego, ask my pride, outside
See your reflection in my black eyes
In my eyes
Ask my ego, ask my pride
Even the gentle soul makes you whole
Pick your paradise...
4.Filth And Dreams
You're my gilmmer of hope
In a time filled with doubt
Sprinkle soul soothing words
On my imperfect world
Like only an angel could
Can't come clean from the past
Or your dreams pay the cost
In the cold light of day
When your joy slips away
You're still a part of me
When will i give you up completely
Still wishing from the other side
(chorus)
How can you smile so sweetly
Why do i still believe in filth and dreams
Filth and dreams
In the depths of your mind
There's a truth you can't hide
Happiness can't be gained
Till you've felt hurt and shame
Until you've suffered enough
Life's a wound that won't heal
No-one knows what you feel
In the cold light of day
When the joy slips away
You're still a part of me
Chorus
I said it may sound mean
But where there's dirt there are dreams
And they'll disappear as soon as you wipe away your tears
And wash your sadness clean, hey yeah
This mess we're in is where they joy begins
And on the road that lies ahead lies your future happiness
And all the hope in your heart, yeah
Hey you
Talking sideways and looking me in the eye
How can you smile so sweetly
Why do i still believe in filth and dreams
Filth and dreams
Filth and dreams
Filth and dreams
Filth and dreams
Filth and dreams
Filth and dreams
5.Happy When You're High
Happy when you're high
Lonely when you're low
Try to break my bones with sticks and stones
Laughing in your face
Feeling out of place
Wondering why there's nowhere left to go
Follow every lead
Trading what you know
Try to make the most of a broken word
Because good things are fast becoming
A thing of the past
(chorus)
So if you want it
And if you need it
Or even just feel it
You can heal the past before too long
We could make it back before we're gone
Closer than your mind
Further than your soul
Are you satisfied when there's no-one home
'cause good things are fast becoming
A thing of the past
Because good things are fast becoming
A thing of the past
Chorus
Because good things are fast becoming
A thing of the past
Just say when
Just say when
Just say when
Just say
Just say when
Just say
Say, say, say, say...
Say when
Say when
Say
6.If I Had The Heart
Drifting on a wave
A breeze
A thought caught in time
Iridecent tears
A kiss
A dream of tomorrow
Climbing
Falling
Pushing
Pulling
Every lap of life's ebb and flow
And if i had the heart to tell you
Would you have the strength to go
Sinking without hope
Sunset
A star in a moonless sky
Closing like your mind
My eyes
A future that died
Climbing
Falling
Pushing
Pulling
Every lap of life's ebb and flow
And if i had the heart to tell you
Would you have the strength to go
And if you don't want to tell me
I don't need to know
Climbing
Falling
Pushing
Pulling
Every lap of life's ebb and flow
And if i had the heart to tell you
Would you have the strength to go
Climbing
Falling
Pushing
Pulling
Every lap of life's ebb and flow
And if i had the heart to tell you
Would you have the strength to go
7.When Morning Comes
I walk these streets
All paved with dirt and dreams
Wishing the rain would come
And wash my sadness clean
I work these city nights
All bound in love and lies
And when the lights go out
The darkness lets me cry
And when the morning comes
You'll soon be gone
Your heart belongs with someone somewhere
Forgotten smiles don't come much higher
You'll realise that you won't feel a thing
I breathe this city air
There's traffic in my veins
And if my heart survives
I'm sure to lose my mind
I love this city life
Lost in this trip i'm in
Still waiting for my turn
A life long been and gone
Long been and gone
Long been and gone
You won't feel a thing
When morning comes you'll be soon gone
Your heart belongs with someone somewhere
Laughing
When morning comes you'll be soon gone
Your heart belongs with someone somewhere
Laughing
When morning comes you'll be soon gone
Your heart belongs with someone somewhere
Laughing
Forgotten smiles don't come much higher
You'll realise that you won't even feel a thing
When morning comes you'll be soon gone
Your heart belongs with someone somewhere
Laughing
And smiling
Laughing
And dancing
Singing
8.Invisible
Invisible
When life's a darker side shade of happiness
Impossible
Emotion empty as a wilderness
And if you see me don't pretend to look away
Can't turn your back on every rainy day
Incurable
A spirit given up for dead
Oblivious
To the long and lonely read that lies ahead
A passion burning like a fire without a flame
Nothing will ever be the same again
Lonely places i have found
Undiscovered in my mind
(chorus)
Looking at life
Passing me by
A lonely star without a crowd
Losing my mind
Playing for time
Dreaming out loud
Impossible
That we should choose the life we live
Insatiable
We've given all we've got to give
We'll never find the dreams we left behind
Discarded, left for someone else to find
Lonely places i have found
Undiscovered in my mind
Chorus
Looking at life
Passing me by
Not gonna be the same again
I'm losing my mind
Playing for time
Dreaming out loud
Buried and gone
What took so long
I'm still shining, shining on the inside
Looking at life
Passing me by
Always looking for that golden hour
Looking at life
Passing me by
All the tears, the future left behind
Buried and gone
What took so long
I'm still dreaming, dreaming out loud
I'm losing my mind
Playing for time
Dreaming out loud
9.World Out Of Control
Watch the day unfold
And see what blissed out joy it holds
Catch a breeze and let it go
You'll see each waking hour embrace you
Thoughts may come and go
Soothing an open wound
You try to save but not too soon
You turn away and try to turn the pain into a pleasure
It didin't hurt at all
But if you fall
You'll rest assured
Cool as a cold embrace
A life that's lost without a trace
The joke's on me when you find out you're laughing
On the other side of your face
You can't escape this place
If you should find yourself
A passing soul through someone else
Would you dare to sing a different tune
Or would it scare you
That you should care at all
But if you fall
You'll rest assured
We're in a world out of control
Don't close your eyes to the future this time
Cool as a scream in your mind
Shadows dancing in time
Where are they now
Bless all your dying dreams
Surrounded by your silent screams
You found there's no-one else to blame
And no more sympathy
You've thrown it all away
But if you fall
You'll rest assured
We're in a world out of control
Don't close your eyes to the future this time
To the future this time
We're in a world out of control
We're in a world out of control
We're in a world out of control
10.Make You Stay
Summer friend
Said you were leaving without saying when
Now sades of winder fade a deeper blue
A frozen picture's all that's left of you
Shimmering
A city sprawl beneath a neon sky
The future fading as you close your eyes
Lying awake through every dreamless night
That one last look gave you away
This time i thought i'd make you stay
Suddenly
Those endless summers are a memory
A world that wasn't ever meant to be
An empty space that no-one else could see
Helplessly
Drowned in the darkness of the deepest night
You came back to me and made it right
Twisting, pouring every breath of life
That one last look gave you away
This time i'd thought i'd make you stay
Warm as a feeling
Warm as a thought you can't explain
Cold as a winter
Cold as the frozen tears on your face
Wide as the future
Wide as this open empty space
Silent and broken
Yesterday seemed so far away
I thought i'd make you stay
I'd make you stay
But one last look gave you away
