Shout
|
|
Shout Shout Let it all out These are the things I can do without Come on I'm talking to you Come on In violent times You shouldn't have to sell your soul In black and white They really really ought to know Those one track minds That took you for a working boy Kiss them goodbye You shouldn't have to jump for joy They gave you life And in return you gave them Hell As cold as I ice I hope we live to tell the tale. And when you've taken down your guard If I could change your mind I'd really love you break your heart |

The Working Hour
|
|
These things that I've been told Can rearrange my world My doubt in time But inside out This is the working hour We are paid by those who learn By our mistakes This day and age For all and not for one All lies and secrets Put on and on and on And fear is such a vicious thing It wraps me up in such chains Find out Find out what this fear is about Find out Find out what this fear is about |

Everybody Wants to Rule the World
|
|
Welcome to your life There's no turning back Even while we sleep We will find you acting on your best behavior Turn your back on Mother Nature Everybody wants to rule the world It's my own design It's my own remorse Help me to decide Help me make the most Of freedom and of pleasure Nothing ever lasts forever Everybody wants to rule the world There's a room where the light won't find you Holding hands while the walls come tumbling down When they do I'll be right behind you So glad we've almost made it So sad they had to fade it Everybody wants to rule the world I can't stand this indecision Married with a lack of vision Everybody wants to rule the world Say that you'll never never never never need it One headline why believe it? Everybody wants to rule the world All for freedom and for pleasure Nothing ever lasts forever Everybody wants to rule the world |

Mothers Talk
|
|
My features form with a change in the weather Weekend We can work it out My features form with a change in the weather Weekend We can work it out When the wind blows When the mothers talk When the wind blows When the wind blows When the mothers talk When the wind blows We can work it out It's not that you're not good enough It's just that we can make you better Given that you pay the price We can keep you young and tender Following the footsteps of a funeral pyre You were paid not to listen Now your house is on fire Wake me up when things get started When everything starts to happen My features form with a change in the weather Some of us are horrified Others never talk about it But when the weather starts to burn Then you'll know that you're in trouble Follow in the footsteps of a soldier girl It's time to put your clothes on And to face the world Don't you feel your luck is changing When everything starts to happen Put your head right next to my heart The beat of the drums is the fear of the dark My features form with a change in the weather |

I Believe
|
|
I believe that when the hurting and the pain has gone We will be strong, oh yes we will be strong And I believe that if I'm crying while I write these words Is it absurd? Or am I being real? I believe if you knew just what these tears were for They would just pour like every drop of rain That's why I believe it is too late for anyone to believe I believe that if you thought for a moment Took your time You would not resign yourself to your fate And I believe that if it's written in the stars That's fine. I can't deny that I'm a Virgo too I believe that if you're bristling while you hear this song I could be wrong or have I hit a nerve? That's why I believe it is too late for anyone to believe I believe that maybe somewhere in the darkness In the nighttime in the storm In the casino Casino Spanish eyes I believe, no I can't believe that everytime you hear a newborn scream You just can't see the shaping of a life The shaping of a life |

Broken
|
|
Between the searching and the need to work it out I stop believing everything will be alright Broken We are broken I'm walking uphill being turned around and round Secret in motion when my feet are on the ground Broken We are broken In my mind's eye One little boy anger one little man Funny how time flies |

Head Over Heels/Broken (Live)
|
|
I wanted to be with you alone And talk about the weather But traditions I can trace against the child in your face Won't escape my attention You keep your distance with a system of touch And gentle persuasion I'm lost in admiration could I need you this much Oh, you're wasting my time You're just wasting time Something happens and I'm head over heels I never find out till I'm head over heels Something happens and I'm head over heels Ah don't take my heart Don't break my heart Don't throw it away I made a fire and watching burn Thought of your future With one foot in the past now just how long will it last No no no have you no ambition My mother and my brothers used to breathe in clean in air And dreaming I'm a doctor It's hard to be a man when there's a gun in your hand Oh I feel so... Something happens and I'm head over heels And this my four leaf clover I'm on the line, one open mind This is my four leaf clover In my mind's eye One little boy walking by Funny how time flies. |
