Ruby Lane

Welcome down to Ruby Lane
Take your pick, sir
We're all the same
The sky is my one direction
The earth is my bed


Welcome down to Ruby Lane
Save your soul, man
For life's a game
receive me as a dancing monkey
And throw me a dime


And if you see my brother
You'll know 'cause he's wearing no shoes
Won't you be so good, man
As to throw him some food


You come back now and share your peace
We'll still be here
'Til time's release
I'm here with my one companion
The road beneath my feet


And if you see my brother
You'll know 'cause he's wearing no shoes
Won't you be so good, man
As to throw him some food


Welcome down to Ruby Lane
Take your pick, sir
We're all the same
I'm here with my one companion
The road beneath my feet
I'm here with my one companion
The road beneath my feet

Satellite Of Love (Million Dollar Hotel soundtrack)


Satellite's gone
up to the sky
Things like that drive me
out of my mind

I watched it for a little while
I love to watch things on TV

Satellite of love (x2)

Satellite's gone
way up to Mars
Soon it will be filled (baby)
with parking cars

I watched it for a little while
I love to watch things on TV

Satellite of love (repeat)

Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, Friday
Monday, Tuesday, Wednessday, Friday (repeat)

Satellite's gone
up to the sky
Things like that drive me
out of my mind

I watched it for a little while
I love to watch things on TV

Satellite of love (repeat)

Strange Behavior

She's gonna go over to him
Say that it's over with him
She knows that their love will never win
Say that it's over with him


She knows herself better than any man could
When she's under his pressure she's not feeling misunderstood
Such strange behavior
From a man who is better than good
Will he still love her
If she wants to love him different way than he wants?


She's gonna go over to him
Say that it's over with him
She knows that their love will never win
Say that it's over with him


She knows herself better than any man could
When she's under his pressue she's not feeling misunderstood
Such strange behavior
From a man who is better than good
Will he still love her
If she wants to love him different way than he wants?


She knows he loves her


She can't love him like he wants her to love him
She can't love him like he wants her to love him
to love him
to love
to love

 The Alien Song (For Those Who Listen)

I see a shining....
A sweeping from the clouds
A glimmer of hope
is coming to feel our light


Oh look it's flashing
This life among the stars
Reaching out to know us
to feel our might


Oh... this restless hope in you
Please... try and help us
Stand on our own


As we stopped on this pavement
and saw your dying mind
Paper, for which you're killing brothers life


Help you, we cannot trust you
we cannot understand
Your people's proud destruction
Of their own land


Oh... we're flying on from you
We... will not stay to see your fate


Watch them fly away
Watch them fly away
See the lines across the sky
Watch them fly... away

You Did It All Before


No I haven't seen the flowers yet
From the broken seeds I'd planted
But the ground is still too red
From the wickedness you did


Could you break my heart?
It's so easy you know
You did it all before
You know, you did it all before


Can you feel it?
Can you fell this moment?
If you could be me
The said would be left unsaid


Just refuse my heart
Don't abuse my heart
You did it all before
You know, you did it all before


Your pocket of schemes
Has split at the seams
I don't need to argue anymore
You're left exposed
Wearing yesterday's clothes
Now you've undone the
stitches we've sewn


Just refuse my heart
Don't abuse my heart
You did it all before
You know, you did it all before


Your pocket of schemes
Has split at the seams
I don't need to argue anymore
You're left exposed
Wearing yesterday's clothes
Now you've undone the
stitches we've sewn

You Keep Me


It takes me years
To come down to the door
The floor is strung
With glass and promises
I have to walk for miles
In compromise
To dive into the water
To dive into the water

Your words they go
From the hill to the sea
Sweet words shot from
My favorite gun
My bodies old from you
And your indecision
Stood at your door
With seven lives inside
You keep me here
You keep me here

You lock my doubt in your heart
You know my doubt in my heart
My heart holds cold to seven lives
Seven demons in the night
Give me freedom by the liter
Freedom from the desert light

Your words they go
From the hill to the sea
Sweet words shot from
My favorite gun
My bodies old from you
And your indecision
Stood at your door
With seven lives inside
You keep me here (x3)


Here...
You...ah,ah my hand, my hand, my heart
Ah… my hand, my hand, my heart
Ah...my hand, my hand
My hand, my hand, my heart

My heart holds cold to seven lives (x3)


(alternate ending)

Ah...my heart, my heart
My my my my my my my heart
My...my hand, my hand, my heart
My, my hand, my hand, my heart
My heart holds cold to seven lives
My heart holds cold to seven lives
My...heart, my, my...

Rocket Collecting (Underworld soundtrack)


Rocket collecting dust
Hidden from all memory
Bathed in outrage and rust
Waiting for you and me
To own it.
Watch you as you douse the ceiling
Light up all the evil dreams
Till they ignite screaming
Into the night
And we run away clean

[chorus:]
I wish I was half electronic
The last shreds of skin are in the sweet sunlight
And I've turned into this smiling, snarling monster
As I watch the walls descend,
As I watch the walls descend like stars

Half-submersed, I reach your island at night
Washed up tangled on these stones
A gorgeous wreck crashing
To lay here for the next 600 years
The storm will play out there for miles on every side
So tell me who's got the dominoes?
But you'll have to leave your lightning outside

[chorus]

The weeds reach the top of the trees

[Milla speaking]

[chorus]

Stars, stars...
Stars, stars...
Stars, stars...
Stars, stars...

[Milla speaking]

Reaching From Nowhere


How can I be telling you my thoughts my love
When even I don't know what I'm thinking
How can I explain the way your eyes
Burn into my mind, my love


For when you talk to me
I'm blind 'cause you set me free
and you hold me and your fingers
touching me


What if we decide to break these walls?
This from me, the builder
Can we give this love a fair chance?
And only cease when it fades


And when I see your face
Locked in my memory
And you hold me
And I'm giving up to you


Reaching from nowhere
Feeling for your hands
Screaming out your name
Nearing towards you


Reaching from nowhere
Feeling for your hands
Screaming out your name
Nearing towards you
Nearing towards you


Reaching from nowhere
Feeling for your hands
Screaming out your name
Nearing towards you
Nearing towards you

Precious Time

Mother I'd like to stay and talk for a minute
You see I'm a lady now
Somehow we're seeing eye to eye


Been searching for a key to set me free
From rowdy people, places
Flipping through old faces


So tell me where these keys go to dine
On words of wisdom with dinner and wine
Give me more of this precious time
To bring some light to this young mind


We've done the time
You and I in our venture
To get the sweetness of life


No more lies, no more objectives
Twisted partings and misconceptions
Days go by like sweet summer breeze
I don't know I...can't feel them anymore


Give me more of this precious time
To bring some light to this young mind, mind, mind


Mother I feel so tired
Let me place my head right here on...on your shoulder
Oh this world can hurt so many
Oh so many people throughout this life
Short in past


So tell me where these keys go to dine
On words of wisdom with dinner and wine
Give me more of this precious time
To bring some light to this young mind, mind, mind


mind, mind, mind
mind, mind, mind

On The Hill


All the clouds roll on
Roll on before you
Who can say anything
When the sun shines, it shines
I turn my face towards your face
Alone facing the sun
Facing the sun
Then the wind will follow
Blowing away trace of tomorrow
On the hill grows
A single silver rose
On the hill grows
Everything I'd ever longed for

Find myself walking on
So far...so far
Look behind the wind's fire
My sun still shinning away
How many times did I look behind?
Stare at my sun to light
Blind to die

No the sparks came and went like sparks do
Time and fire never tried to help them stay
But my sun burns my own lies and dries them


La, la, la
La, la, la, la
La, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la

It's Your Life


We had this dream
locked behind these wicked thoughts
you and I
we felt pain
passed from him, to me, to you

reaching out
into the empty space
we lost our place

It's your life
it's your soul
it's everything
you give to him
it's my heart
in your hands
keep it or just let it fall
another stone
placed in my wall

I brush away
the flaming hair across your cheek
to see these eyes
that lit my life
now they're cold and dark and gone

with your smile
I'll cross this hopeless line
but don't waste time

Repeat Chorus

it's your life
it's your mind
choices that you make my love
it's my heart in your hands
keep it or just let it fall
another stone placed in my wall

can't we see above
this wall?

In A Glade

Ukrainian Lyrics - Courtesy of Orysia T.)

Tam v haiu, pry Dunaiu, solovi shchebeche (2)
Vin svoiu ptashynochku do hnizdechka klyche.

Tam v haiu, pry Dunaiu, tam muzyka hraie (2)
Bas hude, skrypka plache, molodets' huliaie.

Tam v haiu, pry Dunaiu, khodzhu samotoiu (2)
I plachu, i rydaiu myla/mylyi za toboiu.


(English Translation - Courtesy of Richard Handal)

In the forest near the Danube river,
there is a nightingale singing,
he sings to gather everyone from his family

In the forest near the Danube river,
there is a bass vibrating and a fiddle crying,
I think of a place where my lovely one is strolling now

In the forest near the Danube river,
I am sick with my loneliness,
crying, I want to fly like a bird,
to where my lovely one is now.

(Anonymous / Traditional Ukrainian Folk Song)

Gentleman Who Fell


Reaching over
life to life
feeling sugared skin
my poor baby
kissed him so
to ashamed to lift his chin


a voice is speaking
he's the prophet
blinded by the light
a heart is breaking
I can hear it
dropped when gone beyond my sight


hey there, Mr. Talk Too Much
what's in store for us now?


I don't know how to speak to you
I don't know how to trust you
I don't kow how to live for you
I don't know how to love you
the gentleman who fell before the court


I feel your closeness
like a shotgun
a chill within my soul
I touch your finger
know your darkness
your passion takes its' toll


can't see that this talk is cheap
let the suffering go


Repeat First Chorus
Repeat First B Section
Repeat Chorus

Flashlight


All the drops on his cheek
Are frozen up
Watch his heart
Turning into rock
Walks for hours
Burning desire
Soft and deep and
Counting shades of quiet
Living in your fire, Living as fire
Test myself like a nuclear site
I'm tired of my insides
Put my filters on

I'm a flashlight, I'm a flash of light (x6)

I fly to hit the sky
Flying so high I look down at the sky
I look down at the sky

Feast your eyes on my little petal
Put my firefly on the mantel
Had to pass you by without flying
How do I say goodbye to a firefly?
How do I say goodbye to a firefly?

Flashlight, I'm a flash of light
I'm a flashlight, I'm a flash of light (x3)

I fly to hit the sky
Flying so high I look down at the sky
I look down at the sky
I look down at the sky


Easier to look outside
All these needs
No tears spill all over
Shake away to
To stare over

I'm a flashlight, I'm a flash of light

Oh my firefly (x4)
How do I say goodbye to a firefly? (x3)
How do I say, say, say, say, say
How do I say goodbye to a firefly?
How do I say goodbye to a a a firefly?

Don't Fade Away

Hello sunshine
Please don't fade away
See our genius
Warp what we created

No, don't fade away

Stepping over
Shadows from your smile
Losing Myself
In these waves of light

No, don't fade away, No, don't fade away

See them washing
Hearts with teardrops
Bless these simple souls
Baby soldiers
Marching onward
Watch their hopeless eyes

No, don't fade away, No, don't fade away

Oh my, am I high
Is that a glow up in the sky
Oh my, am I high
Is that a glow up in the sky

Whitewashed liars
Stupid teachers
Blinded are these broken dreamers
Little rulers
Who will teach them time ... time

No, don't fade away, No, don't fade away
No, don't fade away

Oh my, am I high
Is that a glow up in the sky
Oh my, am I high
Is that a glow up in the sky

Creature


Oh pretty creature
From what door did you arrive?
Oh what madness will you drive me to?
Let me kiss your hand
And send you back smaller then sand
Swimming in your black mind
You often take me off inside my head

Let me take a ride and worship
Your size
Let me take a ride and worship
Your size

Oh I'm dying
Dying myself with colors of you
Remembering our sweet pretending
Oh big lover
Fun will protect like love
Oh most beautiful as the con-creature
Meet me at the motel six
You said you'd always be my lover

Cause there is no place like the snowman
For just another moment
There is no place like the snowman
For just another moment

Let me take a ride and worship your size (x3)

Come As You Like


Come as you like
Bearing smiles or screams or backdoor dreams babe
as you like
Come as you like
Smoking fools and pipes or making faces
as you like


It's been cold
Flying on a power in the breeze
Prayed so much you nearly lost your knees
The story's old
Trying to be a harmony when
someone comes crashing into me, yeah
Come as you like...you like


Come as you like
I've got curious ears and a cozy mind
So let's curl up some time
Come as you like
I'll just winnow me down
I won't close my eyes
So let your kisses fly


It's been cold
Flying on a power in the breeze
Prayed so much you nearly lost your knees
The story's old
Trying to be a harmony when
someone comes crashing into me, yeah
Come as you like, yeah


You, you
Come as you like, yeah
Your life


You...your life, your life, your life...baby


It's been cold
Flying on a power in the breeze
Prayed so much you nearly lost your knees
The story's old
Trying to be a harmony when
someone comes crashing into me, yeah
Come as you like, yeah


You, you
Come as you like, yeah
You, you
Come as you like...your life

Clock

I'm locked in a box
With a window and a clock
Sometimes I can't sleep
I watch the second hand feeding


Time is ticking, ticking
And the flowers are dripping, dripping
I am awake and I cannot sleep


All hail to the madman
Great murderer, great Aryan
Take all that you need
Take my life, my song, my breed


Fires are burning, burning
My people are yearning, yearning
I'm locked away to defy and die


Instrumental


I'm locked in a box
With a window and a clock
Sometimes I can't sleep
I watch the second hand feeding


Time is getting colder
And I'm getting older, older
Where is the face that I knew before


I am awake and I cannot sleep

Charlie

Now, be free
the sky must have fallen
when I couldn't see
your life's weak strain
I take a step back
and you've fallen again

But if you'd listened
a little closer
reaching over
this cold shoulder

Oh Charlie, a boy and his toys
I see you lying stiff and cold
spread out upon the bedroom floor
kiss me darling with those
pale lips once more
hands could never comfort you
not so well as steel could do

Freak on in
did you think ths time
you would finally win
a trip of life

Repeat B section
Repeat Chorus

Reeling spinning out of lies
daisy vision in your eyes
boat is sinking someone cries
you have left me to surmise
your surprise

Can You Bend Your Back Like This?

In my reckless lifelong rambling
I saw a man break one day
Such a saint, he only lived on paint
He only spoke in prose
Gave his life to save his soul


When he walked out one day
He said, "Please don't believe them
They never understand the triumph the goal of victory
Tell them flippant things and starlet rings
And eyes and nervous laughter
But never say what's on your mind."


Who's gonna take?
And who's gonna swallow?
All these empty dreams back
What of tomorrow?


Wanting more for no abilities
Is this for whom we must provide?
Curse this thing that's called achievement
Curse your striding bounds
Kill the fire in your eyes


Who's gonna take?
And who's gonna swallow?
All these empty dreams back
What of tomorrow?


You see it
But could you ever believe it?
Your fate
But could you really heed it?
Can't help it
But can you bend your back like this?


Take your damn lies and go
I shrugged this world off my shoulders
Pretty crowds who speak and clouds
Great wits of conversation
Skim this life but never live

Boat Drives Me Away


Everyday the boat drives me away
Everyday it drives me away
Watch the sun set and rise
The sunrise
Overland becomes smaller and smaller

Don't wait there when I'll go
I closed the door but I did not lock it
I tried to get lost
But my feet getting close to the water wall
It's fast and thicker

Everyday the boat drives me away
Everyday it drives me away
Watch the sun set and rise
The sunrise
Overland becomes smaller and smaller

Run from the shore
Run follow
Sea turns to stone, sky turns to gray
What now a thousand miss sky promises
Make me forget and let me forget

Everyday the boat drives me away
Oh everyday it drives me away
I searched the books and I searched your body
Another horizon searches for me

Be My Friend

If you, with you, with you


You I light the sky with brush bright
Shake a little now
This candy tree needs a shaking
So bring all your coocoos and clouds


Be my friend,
That word friend and I were on personal terms
Will be a glimmer of friend
Like, like the sequins in my skirts
I friend you while you touch
Three days old
Still whistles in my skin
It's all so soft and lovely
With you


Hey you hey you hey you hey you
With the flying fingers and the scent that lingers
Some music
And then I thought it'd be a happy song
I guess we sang it wrong
Maybe I wrote it wrong


Be my friend,
That word friend and I were on personal terms
Will be a glimmer of friend
Like, like the sequins in my skirts
I friend you while you touch
Three days old
Still whistles in my skin
It's all so soft and lovely
With you


Christened crown now,
With an invitation with an exclamation like golden age

Bang Your Head

Hey little devil that dwells inside
this angel's body, this angel's mind
he said "all I need is Jesus to fly"
take a little peak through that head of hair
I know somewhere there are eyes in there
trying to hide a heart that's shining, so bright


they said "what makes you different, from us?"
we're gonna bang your head, down


I've got a dream that's growing inside me
I'm ready to burst and set it free
I know god waits in the city, of angels
now I've been building a wall these many years
I feel safe inside hiding all my fears
don't hold your breath
if you're trying to touch me


they said "don't believe in yourself
we're gonna band your head, down
we're gonna band your head
band your head down"


We are aging
soon to pass away
so cruel to never know, never know
never finish what was started.


My whole life's been really strange
I've been running in circles
trying to make a change
I transcend myself with Billy I'm home 

Aggravated Rose

My aggravated rose
Is a thorn in her nose
Her scratches on my face
Where is your white horse?

Another month goes by
I wake up as it ends
I crawl into my living space
Where is your white horse?

Where is your white horse?
Where is your face?
All of my
All of my private places expire

All of my private places (x2)
All of my private places expire All of my private places (x2)
All of my private places expire All of my private places (x2)
All of my private places expire

Of my, of my
All of my private places expire
Of my, of my, of my...
