Альбом The Sounds

I've seen people losing all of their faith
Before they knew what they were looking for
I swore I'd never ever do it again, 'til this day
Words are all I have, to give, to you
You never seem to see it my way
Standing in the shadows I hear, people say
I got confessions to make, listen up!
No one sleeps when I'm awake

The dreams I dream the song I sing for you
They're coming from my heart
Is my message getting through?
You know it hurt so bad just like I knew that it would
But I'd do it again, do it again if I could
Do it again if I could

I don't think you know what it's like
You should be careful what you're wishing for
And try to set your ego aside, you will find
A false peace of mind
You fall, behind and everybody's getting tired of you
Standing in the shadows I hear, people say
I got confessions to make, listen up!
No one sleeps when I'm awake

The dreams I dream the song I sing for you
They're coming from my heart
Is my message getting through?
You know it hurt so bad just like I knew that it would
But I'd do it again, do it again if I could
Do it again if I could

Hey! hey! hey! I want you to know, know, know, know
Hey, hey, hey, hey!

'Cause the dreams that I dream and the songs that I sing
When I lost myself it had a different meaning
Shut down and closed imagine all of those
Hundreds of dreams taking place around you

It hurt so bad just like I knew that it would
But I'd do it again, do it again if I could
But I'd do it again, do it again if I could
I'd do it again, I'd do it again, I'd do it again
I'd do it again if I could.

It all happened so fast that night
As I remember it there was a fight
It all went black and the race was on
Behind the closed door there's no light
And I will tell you it felt so right

Everybody knows when it's on, here we go!
Laugh all you want but it's totally outlawed
There's no control of its own
Go! Go!

It all happened so fast last night
The way we lived we felt so alive
I saw a flash in the corner of my eye
Behind the closed door there's no light
Yeah it was only 4 songs & a fight

Everybody knows when it's on, here we go!
Laugh all you want but it's totally outlawed
There's no control of its own

The beginning of the end, that is your home
Don't spread your disease when you come to my town
We're killing off a lonely son

Trying to remember it, slow
Was I really part of it? No!
Forgive and not be crucified by you

Everybody knows when it's on, here we go!
Laugh all you want but it's totally outlawed
There's no control

Everybody knows when it's on, here we go!
Laugh all you want but it's totally outlawed
There's no control of it's own

The beginning of the end that is your home
Don't spread your disease when you come to my town
There's no control of its own
No no control of its own
Go! Go!

This night calls for another man's death
Imagining things I'm a paranoid mess
Breaking down in a place like heaven
Got a call for a drinking lesson
Need some time to wake up
Time to clear your mind
Time before you erupt
Need someone before you screw up

Chorus:
Oh mother, please let me know
I'm calling home from way up the road
I need my pride by my side
I need my pride by my side
I know you wanna beat my lover
I know you wanna beat, beat my lover
You've nowhere to go
Now you're bleeding through every door

Symbolic gesture for a card in your hand
Shake it up with the coke in the sand
I want more money than a bank can hold
And all the things I've already sold
Need some time to wake up
Time to clear your mind
Time before you erupt
Need someone before you screw up

Chorus:
Oh mother, please let me know
I'm calling home from way up the road
I need my pride by my side
I need my pride by my side
I know you wanna beat my lover
I know you wanna beat, beat my lover
You've nowhere to go
Now you're bleeding through every door

Beat my lover
I know you wanna beat, beat my lover
You've nowhere to go
Now you're bleeding all over the floor

Ohoohoooohoooo...

Chorus:
Oh mother, please let me know
I'm calling home from way up the road
I need my pride by my side
I need my pride by my side
I know you wanna beat my lover
I know you wanna beat, beat my lover
You've nowhere to go
Now you're bleeding through every door

Beat my lover
I know you wanna beat, beat my lover
You've nowhere to go
Now you're bleeding through every door

You perhaps heard rumors I'm sure
Obscene disguise despite his new look
I'm meeting him at London's Dorchester Hotel tonight
If you wanna take advantage of him then you know where to go
As long as you bring your bible you're secure

A promise of love brings back the old gun
Undress, decide, make up for lost time
I'm meeting him at London's Dorchester Hotel tonight
If you wanna take advantage of him then you know where to go
As long as you bring your bible you're secure

[Chorus]
And we pray
Bless our hearts
Returning to abnormal life

You fall down on to your knees
Stranger, stranger, captive violence, it's almost done
Attached but you're feeling alone
The addiction will never be gone

Lost and down so fragile inside
Today's the last but not the right one
i'm looking at a picture of someone he had become
If you wanna take advantage of him then you know where to go
As long as you bring your bible you're secure

[Chorus]

You fall down on to your knees
Stranger, stranger, captive violence, it's almost done
You fall down on to your knees
Stranger, stranger, captive violence, it's almost done
You fall down on to your knees
Stranger, stranger, captive violence, it's almost done
Stranger, Stranger
I'm meeting him at London's Dorchester Hotel

Woke up one day with a song in my head
In the basement a beatbox on my bed
Silver frame, claim to fame
Never made them quite the same
So I tip tap toe tapping down the street
On my way I saw Tony the Beat
This is the time to lose control
Everybody's here come on let's roll!

So turn it up and break it down
Come on bring that beatbox back
Tell me do you feel it?
So turn it up and break it down
Come on bring that beatbox back
Tell me do you feel it?
Hey!

Late that night I saw a woman in red
“Hey there honey!” That's what she said.
Tried to move my feet up and down
But the DJ sucked I'm stuck to the ground
I wanna dance, dance to the beat
That's all I want that's all I need
This is the time to lose control
Everybody's here come on let's go!

So turn it up and break it down
Come on bring that beatbox back
Tell me do you feel it?
So turn it up and break it down
Come on bring that beatbox back
Tell me do you feel it?

Yeah you know that you want it ‘cause you can't deny it
Yeah you know that you want it so don't even try it
And that's what I said now it's up to you

(Hey Schoolly, thanks for the hi-hat!)

So turn it up, so turn it up and break it down

So turn it up and break it down
Come on bring that beatbox back
Tell me do you feel it?
So turn it up and break it down
Come on bring that beatbox back
Tell me do you feel it?

Yeah you know that you want it ‘cause you can't deny it
Yeah you know that you want it so don't even try it
Come on bring that beatbox back
So turn it up and break it down
Come on bring that beatbox back, back, b-back, back!
So turn it up and break it down
Come on bring that beatbox back, back, b-back, back!
Come on bring that beatbox back!
Back, b-back, back!

Let us go back to the time when the underground
Was the place where we all used to hide away
Let us go back to the streets where it all begun
How could I know, it was the last time I saw you?

Seventeen and believed in just anything
Could be true, could be bad, something in between
I recall all those lazy summer nights
And all I knew was the time I spent with you

I could easily stay, and never come home
Looking out on the field like its never been changed
The past is a place that you can never return to
Even though people say that this is where you belong
I could easily stay, and never come home
Looking out on the field like its never been changed
The past is a place that you can never return to
Even though people say that this is where you belong

I could always try to reach you
And it's pumping through my veins
And there's nothing I can do about it
(though people say that this is where you belong)

Let us go back to the time when the underground
It used to be our place it belonged to us
And I'd go back if I could but it's not the same
And now I know, it was the last time I saw you?

I could easily stay, and never come home
Looking out on the field like its never been changed
The past is a place that you can never return to
Even though people say that this is where you belong
I could easily stay, and never come home
Looking out on the field like its never been changed
The past is a place that you can never return to
Even though people say that this is where you belong

I could always try to reach you
And it's pumping through my veins
And there's nothing I can do about it

I could always try to reach you
And it's pumping through my veins
And there's nothing I can do about it

I could easily stay, and never come home
Looking out on the field like its never been changed
The past is a place that you can never return to
Even though people say that this is where you belong

I could always try to reach you
And it's pumping through my veins
And there's nothing I can do about it

There's a hole in the ground, where a key can be found.
To a place where they hide, all their secrets inside.
There's a room with no sound, there's a force all around.
There's no time, and no space, no mistakes to erase.

Crossing the Rubicon…

Waking up, with sunbeams in my eyes
And the world outside, seems to pass me by
Embrace the land, where the ocean meets the sand
And emotion fades away, until you take my hand

I will be coming with you, tonight
You're all that I want, you're all I have, you're all I need
Oh, oh you will be shining on me
Like a midnight sun you're the only one who can set me free
You will set me free

Still so young and anxious to be free
But now I'm trapped inside, with all these memories
There's more than this, if you open up your eyes
And then soon you will realize, those days are all gone

I will be coming with you, tonight
You're all that I want, you're all I have, you're all I need
Oh, oh you will be shining on me
Like a midnight sun you're the only one who can set me free

We need to find a way to live
There's more to take, there's more to give
We try so hard, we try so hard and this time
We're on our way

I will be coming with you, tonight
You're all that I want, you're all I have, you're all I need
Oh, oh you will be shining on me
Like a midnight sun you're the only one who can set me free
Like a midnight sun you're the only one who can set me free
Like a midnight sun, like a midnight sun, like a midnight sun

Everybody gets a little lost
Sometimes when you feel your time is running out
You know your love has stopped
when you feel alone and dreams from younger years
are telling you its gone

Ask yourself why people fall apart
'cause they don't realise
that something just ain't right

When you lay down on you pilow at home tonight
you gotta realise you're holding on
to something that ain't right

I believe in this fire burning inside of me
never alone but you're always on your own
Lost in love and desire never again
I've lost myself i'll be searching for someone new

Smothered by his words
It's only freedom that you can't afford
to everyone but yourself

Down on luck tonight
You down down down
there's no way left to turn
cause now you're all alone

Standing on the outside looking in
that is when I realise
This love don't mean a thing

I believe in this fire burning inside of me
never alone but you're always on your own
Lost in love and desire never again,
I've lost myself i'll be searching for someone new

When you feel your troubles closing in
You gotta realise you're holding on
to something that ain't right.

I believe in this fire burning inside of me
Never alone but you're always on your own
Lost in love and desire, never again, never again,
Someone new
I believe in this fire
Burning inside of me

Lost in love and desire
Fire
I'm burning

Where I grew up it was different
There was no violence or like other towns
But when I came home from school that night
I saw the cops were on the run
There were kids on the wall reaching up to the sky
Like a culture shock of joy
It sent me into a strong fascination
And what's been lost is back

‘Cause we were the only ones
Darling and Me this time it's going down

You know where I belong
And you know it's time that we let go
Been drifting so far away from home
November came back and all was gone
You know where I belong, my darling
This time it's going down

When December came I was older
And snow was finally on the ground
Soldiers lining up, cameras feeding the world
With pictures that would mark my mind
I heard his woman scream as she was begging for trust
Then turning ghost-like behind the court
A shotgun blast, as new years passed
Oppression was on the run

‘Cause we were the only ones
Darling and Me this time they're going down

You know where I belong
You know it's time that we let go
Been drifting so far away from home
November came back and all was gone
You know where I belong, my darling
This time they're going down

They're going down

You know where I belong
You know it's time that we let go
Been drifting so far away from home
November came back and now it's gone
You know where I belong, my darling
It's going down

There was a place in my hometown where I use to wander
Above the trees I saw a big black cloud of thunder
Summer rain in my face like snowflakes falling from space
It was so beautiful, and then I passed the mountains
I went coast to coast, and from star to star
That's how you learn, just who you are

Home is where your heart is
Find where you belong, start to take control, show a little soul
Then you feel who you are
Home is where your heart is
Find where you belong, start to take control, show a little soul
Then you feel who you are

There was a time I couldn't see myself growing older
But then I went for a walk when I came back I was so much taller
Maybe try to find something that I could be part of
But I decided to leave, and then I crossed the river
I went coast to coast, and from star to star
But that's how you learn, who you really are

Home is where your heart is
Find where you belong, start to take control, show a little soul
Then you feel who you are
Home is where your heart is
But I leave you with a kiss, there's so much more than this
When you know who you are

Oh, what you know, stop to think
Start to feel, and then you'll heal
You got to rise to the occasion, you got to read between the lines
Then maybe you'll find, who you are inside
When I look into your eyes, I feel what you feel
Come take my hand, let's go for a swim

Home is where your heart is
Find where you belong, start to take control, show a little soul
Then you feel who you are
Home is where your heart is
But I leave you with a kiss, there's so much more than this
When you know who you are
