"Secrets"

   
It seems we caused a forest fire
With just a flicker of a flame
And now I set alight to everything
Now all I do is cause you pain

I won't keep secrets alive
I'll send them all out to space
Without the will to survive
They won't be going no place

Oh my angel
Woman child

I used to think the time would come
When man would rise above the beast
I gave up thinking that way long ago
In conversation with a priest

I won't keep secrets alive
I'll send them all out to space
Without the will to survive
They won't be going no place

Oh my angel
Woman child

We could heal this blindness
With some human kindness
I know secrets kill you
But my love could fill you

Time and time again
Time and time again
It would be so fine
If you could be mine

I won't keep secrets alive
I'll send them all out to space
Without the will to survive
They won't be going no place

Oh my angel
Woman child

"God's Mistake"

   
Have a friend, calls me up
Says hello, and then hangs up
He must have read my mind
These are the days of a different paradigm
Maybe once, even twice
He said "God does not play dice"
Yet if he's everywhere
He's in casinos with aces to spare

Oh, love is God's mistake
Oh, love is God's mistake (mistake)

Ours is not to reason why
As we fall from way up high
Into the water (into the water)
Like a lamb to the slaughter
Even now, God's mistake
Sets us up for one more heartbreak
God you look mighty fine
Dressed as the devil in a cosmic pantomime

Oh, love is God's mistake
Oh, love is God's mistake
Never was so much at stake
Oh, love is God's mistake
Oh, love is God's mistake

"Sketches Of Pain"

   
Daylight saved
Daylight saved
To spite the dark
In spite of the darkness
There I'll crave
There I'll crave
To get to the heart
In spite of the darkness

Great wide stretches of canvas
Signed by a godless name
Strange bright colours of madness
Only a fool would frame
Sketches of pain
Sketches of pain
Sketches of pain

Some cry shame
Some cry shame
We tore them apart
We failed to imagine
God might claim
God might claim
The works of art
We failed to imagine

Great wide stretches of canvas
Signed by a godless name
Strange bright colours of madness

Only a fool would frame
Sketches of pain
Sketches of pain
Sketches of pain

"Los Reyes Catolicos"

   
When time is like a needle
And night is the longest day
A place where a king can pray

Ghosts all gone
Ghosts all gone
Ghosts all gone
To another plain

Los reyes catolicos
Los reyes catolicos
Los reyes catolicos

"Sorry"

   
What's the matter with your life
Did someone come and shoot your wife
Just as you planned
Will you live or will you die
Are you that butterfly
That never lands
Set aside these vacant rules
Break them now and don't get fooled again

Sorry
How many times must I say
Life is not a cake to separate
What do I have to do
To save you from worry
Cut off my nose
To spite my face

When you look into these eyes
Do you see civilized
Or son of Sam

Will you love or do you hate
Why do you hesitate yeah

Sorry
How many times must I say
Love is not a cake to separate
What do I have to do
To save you from worry
Cut off my nose
To spite my face
Cut off my nose
To spite my face

Time is an arrow
You are the bow
Shoot it now to seal your own fate
Get a life, get a love, get a new big idea
(I got a new big idea)

What's the matter with your life
Did someone come and shoot your wife
Just as you planned
Will you live or will you die
Are you that butterfly

Sorry
How many times must I say
Life is not a cake to separate
What do I have to do
To save you from worry
Cut off my nose
To spite my face
Cut off my nose
To spite my face

"Humdrum And Humble"

   
Mistress of the mind
Take me where the air is clean
Ignorance is kind
Emerald and evergreen

30 days september, year of miracle and grief
Through the haze, remember
You're an animal, not a mineral

And we won the war, lost the battle
Lost the war, won the battle
Won the war, lost the battle
Lost the war
All for the love of the humdrum and humble
Colour for the colourblind
All for the love of the humdrum and humble

Through the human eye
Nature a soul extreme
Nothing seems to die
Pictures in a magazine

Through the maze, precisely
Through the myriad of schemes
With your gaze, entice me
Like an animal, not a mineral

And we won the war, lost the battle
Lost the war, won the battle
Won the war, lost the battle
Lost the war
All for the love of the humdrum and humble
Colour for the colourblind
All for the love of the humdrum and humble

Through the maze, precisely
Through the myriad of schemes
With your gaze, entice me
Like an animal, not a mineral

And we won the war, lost the battle
Lost the war, won the battle
Won the war, lost the battle
Lost the war
All for the love of the humdrum and humble
Colour for the colourblind
All for the love of the humdrum and humble
Rubishing the phillistines
All for the love of the humdrum and humble

"I Choose You"

   
I knew all of this was coming
Ain't that odd
Some things come out of nothing
As with god
Not my intention to amuse
Or confuse

I've been down to the kitchen
Played my part
Mapped out all all contradictions
Of the heart
Then someone came and stole my shoes
A situation I tried to diffuse

Long way back clouds were forming
If by choice
Some things come as a warning
Hear their voice
I wish that I could change it's hue
Paint it blue
But when I think what I could lose
All other options disappear from view

When I choose
I choose you
I choose you

"Don't Drink The Water"

   
This is a religion
No, this is a drag
That man over there is smoking sweet cigarettes
Hey look at that fag

I had a dream
I saw you swim
Sink to your grave
Down to Davy Jone's locker
Under the waves
Don't say "Thank god for simple truths"

Take me to your leader
Take me for a ride
The shutters were never open
The days I used to hide
All of the things
I never knew
I should have said
When you looked like Frida Kahlo
Curled up in bed
Don't say "Thank god for simple truths"

Don't drink the water, baby
Don't drink the water, baby

So much emotion, these eyes a strange kind of blue
Deep as the ocean, they named a sea after you
Don't say "Thank god for simple truths"

Don't drink the water, baby
Don't drink the water, baby
Don't drink the water, baby (don't drink the water, baby)
Don't drink the water, baby (don't drink the water, baby)

"Me And My Big Ideas"

   
Me and my big ideas
Won't wash away your tears
No one else seems to mind
That I'm not that kind

Go get a volunteer
We'll pay him well my dear
He will see inside your mind
Because he is that kind

It's a southern kind of heat
The shadows crack and start to creep
Conversation drags its feet
I wish we'd both been more discreet
Like light that is caught between night and day
You're stuck between me and my

Me and my big ideas
Won't wash away your tears
So many strings to your bow
Why not let one go

Well they love you when you're weak
Bet they hate to see this winning streak
It's that thing we call control
There's a deep frustration in their soul
Black thoughts
That are stuck between someone's earsv Like me and my big ideas

So many strings to your bow
Why not let one go
In a way this dream is over
Blown away our four leaf clover

There's no reason why
Me and my big ideas
Won't wash away your tears
No one else seems to mind
That I'm not that kind

"Los Reyes Catolicos (Reprise)"

   
A home is like a castle
A place where a king can reign
Los reyes catolicos
Raoul and the kings of Spain

Ghosts all gone (ghosts all gone)
Ghosts all gone
To another place

Los reyes catolicos
Los reyes catolicos
Los reyes catolicos
Los reyes catolicos

Ghosts all gone
Ghosts all gone
Ghosts all gone
To another place
