"Going Home"

Here it comes again at 3 am
that empty space it just takes my breath away
walk outside its the strangest thing
snow has fallen radiates
i dont know but ive been told
all i know is what i see had such a sweet dream
it end in disaster
and somehow you could not find your way back through the door
im seeing the car crash
the end of the love song and eve now i cant make it back
wehre you are
im going home new york citys become a friend to me
and every street helps to wash out clean my memory
all of the faces they hide the light
i feel that change but the change passes me by
i dont know but ive been told
all i know is waht i see had such a sweet dream
it end in disaster and somehow i could not find my way back through the door
i follow the side walks and all of you footprints
but somehow i could not make it back to wehre you are
im going home

"The Wolves"

Walk dont run or these wolves will chase you down keep your heart well buried underground and we are
vicious enough without love were ugly enough without love sleep doing sleep im coming after you the
leaves are in the fall of full release you know theyll rip you throuh and we are guilty enough wihtout
hate were ugly enough without love we may find a better day

"The Music"

Baby, baby, don't be late
The world is ending I can't change
The way I feel about you now
New York is cold as ever
But still I go out every night
And hide myself among the lights
Bathe in all the pretty things the city brings
The bodies glisten and they shine
Like the stars we're born to die
And like these roses we all will fade

I'm counting the cars on the freeway below
Lost in the music all the foolishness of our lives
Speeding out of control
Lost in the music in the music

Baby, baby, please don't cry
Wipe the guilt out from your eyes
And leave your conscience on the bed
There's no one innocent here
In the mirror you'll find faith
Plastic flowers never fade but we all turn to grey

I'm counting the cars on the freeway below
Lost in the music all the foolishness of our lives
Speeding out of control
Lost in the music in the music

I'm counting the cars on the freeway below
Counting the lights
In the end of it all

I'm counting the cars on the freeway below
Lost in the music
in the music
in the music
in the music
in the music
in the music
in the music

"Brilliant"

So far so good
Stumble through life so complicated it's nearly Impossible
And i lost my way like i knew i would and keep it Together somehow anyway
And i remember you and me
Climbing over backyard fences diving naked in the Swimming pool
All those faces friends those memories fade so fast
Like every love song on the radio

Is it brilliant where you are
Where the lights are low
Is it brilliant where you are
Where the lights are

Through a million days through a million hazy nights
We sit amusing in our politics
Through wine and talk through sex and art we fill our time
And numb ourselves with what's to come
But i'm older now got a little girl of my own
And her fears are my fears now
I know that it's the end of days for moderates
But thinking people are thinking still

Is it brilliant where you are
Where the lights are low
Is it brilliant where you are
Where the lights are

So far so good
Stumble through life so complicated it's nearly Impossible
And we lost our way like i knew we would
And keep it together somehow anyway
Woke up from an impossible dream
And we talked and we spoke and we drank and we sang
And we danced and we live and we love and we give
Without question or faith then we fight till we hate
And we hope and we pray that this violence will fade
It's always the same it's the same life

"Ugly Is Beautiful"

Day by day we fall apart
Disintegrate the lightning rains across the sky But comes too late
To change the mood and save us now
It's criminal the way we love
The way we hate it's almost human
Eyes are opened wide

Stood on the rooftop scream at the sky again
Dance to the radio end of the world we know
Ugly is beautiful beauty in stereo
Thinking of you
Just like the earth spins high as a kite again
There with the river flow end of the life i've known
Ugly is beautiful beauty so terrible
Thinking of you

All the words we throw away
Like paper cuts they just keep piling
Higher and higher throughout the day
Illogical the script we're writing
It's chemical the way we love
The way we hate it's quite inhuman
Eyes are opened wide

Stood on the rooftop scream at the sky again
Dance to the radio end of the world we know
Ugly is beautiful beauty in stereo
Thinking of you
Just like the earth spins high as a kite again
There with the river flow end of the world we've known
Ugly is beautiful beauty so terrible
Thinking of you

"So Far Down"

Scars are piling high
Like fashion magazines
Read between the lines
So desperate for release
Get your new tattoo
So we'll all look the same
Take the chemicals
That help you through the day
Step outside your door
Do we all look the same?
No one says a word

We all get by
Above the lights
And it seems so far down and it's so far
This city tonight
We are on fire
And it seems so far down and it's so far

Sell yourself so cheap
I'll buy another round
I swear we're getting out
Still we choke it down
Coming up for air
Been weakened at the knees
No one says a word

We all get by
Above the lights
And it seems so far down and it's so far
This city tonight
We are on fire
And it seems so far down and it's so far

"Spotlight On"

Caught on the train
amuse myself and eavesdrop on those japanese girls Party-planning
Chic and lovely broken english
She smiles at me and mouths that we're all fools

That's new york style
Endless nights keep rushing by
We wander out onto the sidewalk
Cigarettes are piling high
Hustlers and the queens are singing

Still we are
Invincible
We thought we'd be forever young
Standing here beneath the sign
With spotlight on

Missed the rain
Coming home it's early morning
Wait outside the sunshine market
Desperate in our invitation
Asking all those lovers just to stay
Drift away
Through the buildings dawn is breaking
All the people line for coffee
Read about the day's disasters
Hustlers and the queens are singing

Still we are
Invincible
We thought we'd be forever young
Standing here beneath the sign
With spotlight on

"Science"

I'm stuck here in the middle of
This mess that i don't understand
Come on wake up
Open my eyes
It's raining on fifth avenue
The lovers have all gone to ground
I know you're crying
But i don't ask why
Make pleasantries with everyone
We're cruelest to the ones we love
Just keep smiling now

Your science is breaking my heart in two
And I know that we will soon be enemies
Time will tell

I'm watching too much television
They tell me all the news is bad
I don't even care
I don't ask why
We used to want the same things
We never want the same things now
Come on wake up

All of the stars are falling from the sky
These oceans open wide
And drag me under
As these rivers start to green and the waves keep Crashing in
And drag me under

"White Flag"

Took the acid in the afternoon
Just to be part of the scenery with all the lonely People there we are
Took a trip out to the galaxy
I'm not looking for salvation just a taste of liberation
I said my friends
Like to sit all day and watch the stars bend

I can see your white flag flying in the distance
I know that it's lonely there where you are
If everything is perfect tell me why you're hurting
It won't be long

Took a trip out to the girly show
It was there i talked to jesus he said christ Don't you believe it
Another drink and we talked all night
I asked does it hurt to be you he said boy it hurts like hell
He said my friends
Like to sit all day and watch the stars bend

I can see your white flag flying in the distance
I know that you're lonely there where you are
If everything's so perfect tell me why you're hurting
It won't be long

Three am and the light's so strange
Little rosa's started dancing now with all the lonely people there we are
Leans to me asks for a cigarette
I asked does it hurt to be you
She said boy it hurts like hell
She said my friends like to sit all day and watch the stars bend

"Happy Endings"

So this is midnight
I can feel the coming storm
My perverted butterfly
You begin to be transformed
And we are drained out
Emptied in the atmosphere
Fashionable as suicide
Never thought it'd feel so real

These happy endings are just illusions
Dying every day that we go by
Here i'm stripped naked for the conclusion
It's killing me a little at a time

In this silence
We design a different life
Strategies of compromise
Lovers lose their appetites
And are we hopeless
Underneath the diamond sky
Longing turns to bitterness
Modern love just can't survive

These happy endings are just illusions
Dying every day that we go by
Here i'm stripped naked for the conclusion
It's killing me a little at a time

And i walk and i fall till i can't feel a thing
I am sick of the sound of my own shattered mind
I don't know who i am
I don't know where we all will be
