The Reflex
|
|
The Reflex The Reflex The Reflex You've gone too far this time And I'm dancing on the valentine I tell you somebody's fooling around With my chances on the danger line I'll cross that bridge when I find it Another day To make my stand High time is no time for deciding If I should find a helping hand Why don't you use it? Try not to bruise it? Buy time don't loose it Why don't you use it? Try not to bruise it? Buy time don't loose it The reflex is a lonely child Who's waiting by the park The reflex is a door to finding Treasure in the dark And watching over lucky clover Isn't that bizarre Every little thing the reflex does Must be answered with a question mark I'm on a ride and I want to get off But they won't slow down the round-about I sold the radio and T.V. set Don't want to be around when this gets out Why don't you use it? The reflex is a lonely child Who's waiting by the park The reflex is a door to finding Treasure in the dark And watching over lucky clover Isn't that bizarre Every little thing the reflex does Must be answered with a question mark Why don't you use it? Try not to bruise it? Buy time don't loose it The reflex is a lonely child Who's waiting by the park The reflex is a door to finding Treasure in the dark And watching over lucky clover Isn't that bizarre Every little thing the reflex does Must be answered with a question mark |

New Moon on Monday
|
|
Shake up the picture the lizard mixture With your dance on the eventide You got me coming up with answers All of which I deny I said it again But could I please rephrase it Maybe I can catch a ride I couldn't really put it much plainer But I'll wait till you decide Send me your warning siren As if I could ever hide Last time La Luna I light my torch and wave it for the New moon on Monday And a fire dance through the night I stayed the cold day with a lonely satellite New moon on Monday And a fire dance through the night I stayed the cold day with a lonely satellite Breaking away with the beast of both worlds A smile that you can't disguise Every minute I keep finding Clues that you leave behind Save me from these reminders As if I'd forget tonight This time La Luna New moon on Monday And a fire dance through the night (Fire dance through the night) I stayed the cold day with a lonely satellite (I light my torch and wave it for the) New moon on Monday And a fire dance through the night (Fire dance through the night) I stayed the cold day with a lonely satellite (I light my torch and wave it for the) |

(I'm Looking For) Cracks in the Pavement
|
|
I shed my skin when the party was about to begin I'm light years away but I'm walking back tonight of all nights When I should be feeling just right Don't wanna be in public my head is full of chopstick I don't like it Something on my mind breaking open doors I've sealed up before Something on my mind makes me run when I thought I'd run too far Somebody's shaking my tree maybe that somebody is me I'm standing in the light but I'm making a break for the shadows on the cinema wall They should be mine but I'm not that tall Now I'm saying this in private if I had a car I'd drive it insane Something on my mind breaking open doors I've sealed up before Something on my mind makes me run when I thought I've run too far Something on my mind breaking open doors I've sealed up before Something on my mind makes me run when I thought I've run too far I'm looking for cracks in the pavement Something on my mind breaking open doors I've sealed up before Something on my mind makes me run when I thought I've run too far Something on my mind breaking open doors I've sealed up before Something on my mind makes me run when I thought I've run too far |

I Take the Dice
|
|
Midnight I think I'm gonna make it Feel the magical lash of the rolland the crash in their lives Headline in tomorrow's papers Kill that light it's so bright And you're shining in right in my eyes Show me your secret and tell me you name Catch me with your fizzy smile Try to remember again and again What it is that I recognize When I need you I don't know how To believe in your advice Just this once I take the dice Show me your secret and tell me you name Catch me with your fizzy smile Try to remember again and again What it is that I recognize When I need you I don't know how To believe in your advice Just this once I take the dice Midnight so what's the point of faking For a kiss or whisper you pull out a desperate prize Hold tight onto daddy's bracelet Make them pay for their chances With money they don't think that's nice |

Of Crime and Passion
|
|
Why did you let me run When you knew I'd fall for the gaping hole Where your heart should be Liar-couldn't cut me deeper with a knife if you tried Just take a look (before you run off and hide) At your victim Arise Clouds on you shoulder Aren't they grazed by the afterglow How quiet they gather When the storm is about to blow No don't look away Caught in the crossfire And it ain't no wind of change I'm talking of crime and passion's rage Summer of madness or the undertow Dragged me up an alley for the blossoming fire On a stranger's smile Bride of wire-how disguise so easily cracked Saw your heart turn spade This orchid's turned to black Graze on your shoulder Like the clouds in the afterglow How quiet they gather When the storm is about to blow No don't look away Caught in the crossfire And it ain't no wind of change I'm talking of crime and passion's rage Way down by the shoulder In the haze of the afterglow Stranded together And the storm is about to blow No don't look away Caught in the crossfire And it ain't no wind of change I'm talking of crime and passion's rage |

Union of the Snake
|
|
Telegram force and ready I knew this was a big mistake There's a fine line drawing my senses together And I think it's about to break If I listen close I can hear them singers, oh-oh-oh Voices in your body coming through on the radio The union of the snake is on the climb Moving up, it's gonna race, it's gonna break through the borderline Nightshades on a warning Give me strength, at least give me a light Give me anything even sympathy There's a chance you could be right If I listen close I can hear them singers, oh-oh-oh Voices in your body coming through on the radio The union of the snake is on the climb It's gonna race, it's gonna break, gonna move up to the borderline If I listen close I can hear them singers, oh-oh-oh Voices in your body coming through on the radio The union of the snake is on the climb Moving up, it's gonna race, it's gonna break through the borderline The union of the snake is on the climb It's gonna race, it's gonna break, gonna move up to the borderline |

Shadows on Your Side
|
|
Shackled and raised for a shining crowd They want you to speak, but the music is louder than all of their roar With the heat off the planet's core But the shadows are on your side as soon as the lights go down In the darkest place you can find you belong to the hands of the night Promises made with a distant friend Truth should be known it can only bend to a tune of it's own Hey, you'll never hear that voice again Scandal in white on a tangled vine With everybody saying that your having the time of your life When your life is on the slide But the shadows are on your side as soon as the lights go down In the darkest place you can find you belong to the hands of the night Shadows are on your side as soon as the lights go down In the darkest place you can find you belong to the hands of the night Spinning a compass to choose your way You can run, you can dive, you can stand and you can soar Whichever way you can be sure That the shadows are on your side as soon as the lights go down In the darkest place you can find you belong to the hands of the night Shadows are on your side as soon as the lights go down In the darkest place you can find you belong to the hands of the night Shadows on your side The shadows are on your side Shadows on your side The shadows are on your side |

The Seventh Stranger
|
|
Those words are all remainders Echoes growing in the heart of twilight They lay back laughing at naivety's star Awaken all those whispers The dusty shadow of a passing favour I wouldn't say that you were ruthless or right I couldn't see from so far Was I chasing after rainbows One thing for sure, you never answered when I called And I wiped away the water from my face To look through the eyes of a stranger For rumours in the wake of such a lonely crowd Trading in my shelter for danger I'm changing my name just as the sun goes down In the eyes of the stranger Can't tell the real from reflection When all these faces look the same to me In every city such a desolate dream Some days are strange to number Some say the seventh sounds a little bit stranger A year of Sundays seems to have drifted right by I could have sworn in one evening And I'm not seized in desperation No steel reproaches on the table from before But I still can feel those splinters of ice I look through the eyes of a stranger For rumours in the wake of such a lonely crowd Trading in my shelter for danger I'm changing my name just as the sun goes down In the eyes of the stranger I must be chasing after rainbows One thing for sure, you never answered when I called And I wiped away the water from my face To look through the eyes of a stranger For rumours in the wake of such a lonely crowd Trading in my shelter for danger I'm changing my name just as the sun goes down Walking away like a stranger From rumours in the wake of such a lonely crowd Trading in my shelter for danger I'm changing my name just as the sun goes down In the eyes of the stranger In the eyes of the stranger In the eyes of the stranger |
