Lips Like Sugar

She floats like a swan
Grace on the water
Lips like sugar
Lips like sugar
Just when you think youve caught her
She glides across the water
She calls for you tonight
To share this moonlight

Youll flow down her river
Shell ask you and youll give her
Lips like sugar
Sugar kisses
Lips like sugar
Sugar kisses

She knows what she knows
I know what shes thinking
Sugar kisses
Sugar kisses
Just when you think shes yours
Shes flown to other shores
To laugh at how you break
And melt into this lake

Youll flow down her river
But youll never give her
Lips like sugar
Sugar kisses
Lips like sugar
Sugar kisses

Shell be my mirror
Reflect what I am
A loser and a winner
The king of siam
And my siamese twin
Alone on the river
Mirror kisses
Mirror kisses

Lips like sugar
Sugar kisses
Lips like sugar
Sugar kisses

Lips like sugar
Sugar kisses
Lips like sugar
Sugar kisses

Lips like sugar
Sugar kisses
Lips like sugar
Sugar kisses

New Direction

Out on a limb
Did you see what the cat dragged in
Take it on the chin
Catching fire on a roof of tin

Youve learnt to speak and youre professing
The right to teach us our direction
But I found out on close inspection
True imprefection

Im looking for a new direction
Where in the world am i?
I took the word the word was resurrection
And then you took me out to climb

Higher and higher
Higher and higher
Higher and higher
Kissing the spires
Higher and higher
Higher and higher
Higher and higher
Souls on fire

Inside of my head
I heard what the good lord said
Beware he said
If you dont you might end up dead

You suck the air right out of me
But though you suck you cannot see
That life and living are not free
Though you live you do not breathe

Im looking for a new direction
Where in the world am i?
I took the word the word was resurrection
And then you took me out to climb

(repeat) higher and higher...

I have changed
But still my heart
Remains intact
And true love stays
But will our hearts
Retain their lack of

No sense and no direction
Who in the world am i?
I took the word the word was resurrection
And then you took me out to climb

(repeat) higher and higher...

Start confessing
Start confessing

All my evils would be blessed
If to God I did confess
Wipe the slate and see if i
Ate the bread and drank the wine
So as youre leaving I take possesion
Just take the bottle and start confessing

Mirrorball

All the world is sleeping
I can close my eyes
Whats the darkness keeping
One more time to die
I want to be redeemed
I need a new surprise

Feeling good for nothing
Tastes like solid rain
Feel the same as you
Say you feel the same

I got it
I got it good
On my white knuckle life
Oh yeah, if only I could
Get out the other side

In my nightmares
Im the nightmare
Youre like a nightmare
In my mind
Youre like a nightmare

Hells _______ the shelter
The freak shows inside
Im the mirrorball
Youre the dying light

I got it
I got it good
On my white knuckle life
Oh yeah, if only I could
Find somewhere else to hide

I got it
I got it good
On my white knuckle life
Oh yeah, if only I could
Get out the other side

 Ocean Rain

All at sea again
And now my hurricanes have brought down this ocean rain
To bathe me again
My ships a sail
Can you hear its tender frame
Screaming from beneath the waves
Screaming from beneath the waves

All hands on deck at dawn
Sailing to sadder shores
Your port in my heavy storms
Harbours the blackest thoughts

Im at sea again
And now your hurricanes have brought down this ocean rain
To bathe me again
My ships a sail
Can you hear its tender frame
Screaming from beneath the waves
Screaming from beneath the waves...

All hands on deck at dawn
Sailing to sadder shores
Your port in my heavy storms
Harbours the blackest thoughts

All hands on deck at dawn
Sailing to sadder shores
Your port in my heavy storms
Harbours the blackest thoughts

All at sea again
And now my hurricanes have brought down this ocean rain
To bathe me again
My ships a sail
Hear its tender frame
Screaming from beneath the waves
Screaming from beneath your waves
Screaming from beneath the waves
Screaming from beneath the waves

All hands on deck at dawn
Sailing to sadder shores
Your port in my heavy storms
Harbours the blackest thoughts

 My Kingdom

I chop and I change and the mystery thickens
Theres blood on my hands and you want me to listen
To brawn and to brain when the truths in the middle
Born of the grain like all good riddles

B-b-burn the skin off and climb the roof top
Thy will be done
B-b-bite the nose off and make it the most of
Your king- kingdom kingdom kingdom

You kill when you talk and the enemy weakens
Your words start to walk when youre not even speaking
If my heart is a war its soldiers are bleeding
If my heart is a war its soldiers are dead

B-b-b-burn the skin off and climb the roof top
Thy will be done
B-b-bite the nose off and make it the most of
Your king- kingdom kingdom kingdom

Do do do do do do do, do do do do do do do
Do do do do do do do, do do do do do do do
Do do do do do do do, do do do do do do do
Do do do do do do do, do do do do do do do

Ive lost and Ive gained and while I was thinking
You cut off my hands when I wanted to twist
If you know how to dance to boney maroney
Hes doing the ballet on both of his wrists

B-b-b-burn the skin off and climb the roof top
Thy will be done
B-b-bite the nose off and make it the most of
Your k-k- k- k- k- kingdom, king-k- k- k- k-

B-b-b-burn the skin off and climb the roof top
And I will be done
B-b-bite the nose off and make the most of
Your king- kingdom, kingdom, kingdom

(youre a bitter malignous person)
(and the death is well overdue)
(you suck the blood that kills you)
(you kiss the hand that hates you)

(youre a bitter malignous person)
(and your death is well overdue)
(your sucking bitter pain)

 Pride


Mother says
Sister says
Would you mind if we laugh at you
Do you mind if we sing with you

Daddy says
Brother says
Make us proud of you
Do something we cant do
Do it, do it
Do it, do it
Do it

John waits
Barry hates
I think Im heading for a fall
They hope Im heading for a fall

Peter says
Julie says
I think its time you stopped stalling
We think its time you start falling
Fall

Mother says
Sister says
Dyou mind if we laugh at you
Mind if we sing with you

Daddy says
Brother says
Make us proud of you
Do something we cant do

Do it, do it, do it, do it
Do it, do it, do it, do it
Do it, do it

Proud To Fall
   

Here you come again
Acting like a saviour
There you go again
Talking like a stranger

You said we must all learn to face
What were becoming
And then I saw you in the distance
Off and running

But from start to finish
I was proud to fall
And I fell deep within it
I got lost inside it all
Inside it all
Inside it all

Looks like rain again
Feels like its rained forever
Cant remember when
Dont remember whether
I ever really told you who I was
It must have been because because because

From start to finish
I was proud to fall
And I fell so deep within it
I got lost inside it all
Inside it all
Inside it all

I fell between the bruises
And the red curtain call
I prayed youd light the fuses
And wed burn and torch it all
Long days jouney into
Long nights journey out
Knee deep so deep within you
I kept and keep without

You said we must all learn to face
What were becoming
And then I saw you in the mirror
Off and running

But from start to finish
I was proud to fall
And I fell so deep within it
I got lost inside it all

From start to finish
I was proud to fall
And I fell so deep within it
I got lost inside it all
I got lost inside it all
Inside it all
Inside it all
Inside it all

Rescue

If I said Id lost my way
Would you sympathise
Could you sympathise?
Im jumbled up
Maybe Im losing my touch
Im jumbled up
Maybe Im losing my touch
But you know I didnt have it anyway

Wont you come on down to my
Wont you come on down to my rescue

Things are wrong
Things are going wrong
Can you tell that in a song
I dont know what I want anymore
First I want a kiss and then I want it all

Wont you come on down to my
Wont you come on down to my rescue
Rescue, rescue, rescue

Things are wrong
Things are going wrong
Can you tell that in a song
Losing sense of those harder things
Is this the blues Im singing?
Is this the blues Im singing?
Is this the blues Im singing?
Is this the blues Im singing?

Wont you come on down to my
Wont you come on down to my rescue
Is this the blues Im singing
Wont you come on down to my rescue

Wont you come on down to my
Wont you come on down to my
Wont you come on down to my
Wont you come on down to my
(is this the blues Im singing? )
Wont you come on down to my
(rescue)
Wont you come on down to my
(is this the blues Im singing? )
(rescue)
Wont you come on down to my
(is this the blues Im singing? )
(rescue)
Wont you come on down to my
(is this the blues Im singing? )
(rescue)
Wont you come on down to my
(is this the, Im singing)
Wont you come on down to my
(is this the, Im singing)

Silver

Swung from a chandelier
My planet sweet on a silver salver
Bailed out my worst fears
cause man has to be his own saviour
Blind sailors
Imprisoned jailers
God tame us
No one to blame us

The sky is blue
My hands untied
A world thats true
Through our clean eyes
Just look at you
With burning lips
Youre living proof
At my fingertips

Walked on a tidal wave
Laughed in the face of a brand new day
Food for survival thought
Mapped out the place where I planned to stay

All the way
Well behaved
Just in case
It slips away

The sky is blue
My hands untied
A world thats true
Through our clean eyes
Just look at you
With burning lips
Youre living proof
At my fingertips

La la la la la la la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la la la

The sky is blue
My hands untied
A world thats true
Through our clean eyes
Just look at you
With burning lips
Youre living proof
At my fingertips
