This Is How It Goes

Suddenly I can't stay in this room.
You'll never sway, and I have nothing left that I can think of to say.
What do you want me to think of my thought?
Bear it in mind, if I cannot believe in me who will I then be?

And so I'll run but not too far, incase you chase me, oh...
But this is how it goes, baby.
I'll get angry at your words and I'll go home
And you won't call after me 'cos I'll be back before you know, you know...

So give me a tooth full of that smile,
and know-it-all eyes you show me
just to prove that you don't need to lose it.
You tell me I'm your fortress of desire
but is it a crime for me to say my own view
and want then not to fear you?

And so I'll run but not too far, incase you chase me...
But this is how it goes, baby,
I'll get angry at your words and I'll go home
then you won't call after me 'cos I'll be back before you know,
you know, yeah I'll be back before you know...

La di da di da........... 
And so I'll run but not too far...

'Cos this is how it goes, baby,
I'll get angry at your words and
I'll go home, then you won't call after me,
'cos I'll be back before you know, you know...

yeah, I'll be back before you know...
and so I'll run but not too far...

The Sound Of White

Like a freeze-dried rose, you will never be,
what you were, what you were to me in memory.
But if I listen to the dark,
you'll embrace me like a star,
envelope me, envelope me...
If things get real for me down here,
promise to take me to before you went away -
if only for a day.
If things get real for me down here,
promise to take me back to the tune
we played before you went away.

And if I listen to, the sound of white,
*sometimes I hear your smile, and breathe your light.
Yeah if I listen to, the sound of white ..
You're my mystery. One mystery. My mystery. One mystery.

My silence solidifies,
until that hollow void erases you,
erases you so I can't feel at all.
But if I never fell again, at least that nothingness
will end the painful dream, of you and me...
If things get real for me down here, promise to take me to
before you went away, if only for a day.
If things get real for me down here, promise to take me back to
the tune we played before you went away.

And if I listen to, the sound of white
*sometimes I hear your smile, and breathe your light.
Yeah if I listen to, the sound of white
*sometimes I hear your smile, and breathe your light.
And if I listen to, the sound of white.

I knelt before some strangers face,
*But I'd never have the courage or belief to trust this place,
But I dropped my head, 'cos it felt like lead,
And I'm sure I felt your fingers through my hair...

And if I listen to, the sound of white sometimes
I hear your smile, and breathe your light.
Yeah if I listen to, the sound of white.
The sound of white,
The sound of white,
The sound of white.

Where I Stood

I don't know what I've done
Or if I like what I've begun
But something told me to run
And honey you know me it's all or none

There were sounds in my head
Little voices whispering
That I should go and this should end
Oh and I found myself listening

'Cos I don't know who I am, who I am without you
All I know is that I should
And I don't know if I could stand another hand upon you
All I know is that I should
'Cos she will love you more than I could
She who dares to stand where I stood

See I thought love was black and white
That it was wrong or it was right
But you ain't leaving without a fight
And I think I am just as torn inside

'Cos I don't know who I am, who I am without you
All I know is that I should
And I don't know if I could stand another hand upon you
All I know is that I should
'Cos she will love you more than I could
She who dares to stand where I stood

And I won't be far from where you are if ever you should call
You meant more to me than anyone I ever loved at all
But you taught me how to trust myself and so I say to you
This is what I have to do

'Cos I don't know who I am, who I am without you
All I know is that I should
And I don't know if I could stand another hand upon you
All I know is that I should
'Cos she will love you more than I could
She who dares to stand where I stood
Oh, she who dares to stand where I stood

100 Round The Bends

I follow complications like a bloodhound
So pick me up, twist me round and throw me all the way back down
'Cos I find my feet addicted to the ceiling when hanging upside
Your smile's a frown- it's all too easy on the ground

So jump in my car we'll go 100 round the bends
We'll take this road until we're back at the start yet again
Jump in my car we'll go 100 round the bends
And we'll pretend that feeling rage is feeling real
That feeling is feeling real

So I've got a brand new rubber band for you boy
Go on and give it a stretch, I can see you're itching to
Frustrations on the boil
But then I see my damn reflection in your eyeballs
And I want nothing more to do with all
The things you've made me think I am

So jump in my car we'll go 100 round the bends
We'll take this road until we're back at the start yet again
Jump in my car we'll go 100 round the bends
And we'll pretend that feeling rage is feeling real
That feeling is feeling real

Steer

Feel it falling off like clothing
Taste it rolling on your tongue
See the lights above you glowing
Oh and breathe them deep into your lungs

It was always simple, not hidden hard
You've pulling on the strings
Playing puppeteer for kings
And you've had enough

But the search ends here
Where the night is totally clear
And your heart is fierce
So now you finally know
That you control where you go
You can steer

So hold this feeling like a newborn
All the freedom surging through your veins
You have opened up a new door
So bring on the wind, fire and rain

It was always simple, not hidden hard
You've been played at a game
Called remembering your name
And you stuffed it up

But the search ends here
Where the night is totally clear
And your heart is fierce
So now you finally know
That you control where you go
You can steer

Oh
Coz now you finally know
That you control where you go
You can steer

'Cause you've been listening for answers
Oh but the city screams and all your dreams go unheard

But the search ends here
Where the night is totally clear
And your heart is fierce
So now you finally know
That you control where you go
You can steer

Oh
And get out of the box
And step into the clear

Oh
Cause now you finally know
That you can steer

Sugarcane

Baby ballerina's
Hiding somewhere in the corner
Where the shadow wraps around her
And our torches cannot find her
She will stay there till the morning
Crawl behind us as we are yawning
And she will leave our game
To never be the same

So grow tall sugarcane
Eat that soil, drink the rain
But know they'll chase you if you play their little games
So run, run fast sugarcane

You see my peep-show booth is handy
There's a one-way-only mirror
So I can dance here with my hair down
But I don't see if you get bitter
And there's a button right beside me
If I happen to want a wall to hide me
If only the ballerina had one too

So grow tall sugarcane
Eat that soil, drink the rain
But know they'll chase you if you play their little game
So run, run fast sugar cane
Yeah you better run, run fast sugarcane
And she said always be afraid
Yeah you should always be afraid...

To grow tall sugarcane
Eat that soil, drink the rain
But know they'll chase you if you play their little game
So run, run fast sugar cane
Yeah you better run, run fast sugarcane

Secret

You were from the North, I was from the South
We were from opposite places, different towns
But I knew it was good and you knew it too
So we moved together like a ball and a chain
Minds becoming two halves of the same
It was real, but in shadows grew

Cos you’ve got a secret don’t ya babe?

I would’ve shouted loud and broken through
I would’ve given it all to belong to you
But there were different plans, different rules
You said “where I’m from there is a lock and key
If you’d be so kind as to follow me
I will shoe you the way to the rest of my sins”

Cos you’ve got a secret don’t ya babe?
Yeah you, you got a secret don’t ya babe?
And I should know
Yeah I should know

So this room was damp where your sins laid
There was that smell in the air of an old place
That hadn’t seen much daylight in years
And you threw me down, said, “If ya don’t mind
I’m gonna leave you here until night time
Then we can do what we want my baby out of the spotlight.”

Cos you’ve got a secret don’t ya babe?
Yeah you, you got a secret don’t ya babe?
And I should know
Yeah I should know
For I’m your secret aren’t I babe?
Yeah I’m your secret aren’t I babe?
Aren’t I babe?

Warm Whispers

Your warm whispers
Out of the dark, they carry my heart
Your warm whispers
Into the dawn they carry me through

And I'm weeping warm honey and milk
As you stay surrounding me, surrounding me

Your warm whispers
Letting me drown in a pool of you
Your warm whispers
Are keeping the noise from breaking through

And I'm weeping warm honey and milk
As you stay surrounding me, surrounding me

Yeah I'm weeping warm honey and milk
As you stay surrounding me

Your warm whispers
Your warm whispers

And I'm weeping warm honey and milk
Your warm whispers
Yeah I'm weeping warm honey and milk
Your warm whispers


Your warm whispers
Your warm whispers
Your warm whispers
