Through
Sometimes
it gets cold and lonely,
it is only necessary before the road merges again.
with the tracks of company the sunshine is gonna melt this frozen
soil again
as the bugs of boredom are creeping in you know you're gonna have to
kill some time and you wanna live and share but nothing in
particular comes to mind
take
me in your arms straight to the stars
let's warm up these frozen hearts
take the veil off this mystery
this deadly mask of time
as
you pour yourself another illusion of company
you know you'll never find it in the magazines
it's allright it's okay
you know you're gonna need your fixes
either either anyway
where has it been hiding
round the corner round the world
you never know you never know
till the pieces fall to place the puzzle of a smiling face
and it all comes together and oh, you'll know
that
it's not gonna be all you thought it'd be
there's too many secrets in this daily grind how what why don't ask
no more open your door
no, you can't deny it you can't fake it
there's only one way out and it's through
yes it's true the only way to go is
through
through the motions, through the fields,
through the stops and the yields
can't go over can't go down,
can't go under, can't go 'round
as you take another shaky step towards an end
and the means become clear
slowly your stride becomes well confident
and you'll find a lot of love where there first was fear

Frontier
could
the barrier that i hit
somehow become a frontier
that i can stand on,
look out from
into the widest openest
of space
change, change
change, change
or am i just crashing here
paralyzed
our differences too bright
to keep my eyes
open, open
i wanna open for you
as far as i can
don't wanna lie shackled in defense
open, open
i wanna open for you
open, open
and let the wind blow through
cos that's how love lives
love lives like the wind
cos that's how love lives
love lives like the wind
it needs to run free

Lit Up
thinking
about you all day long
running into you everywhere i think
hear you in every melody, taste you in every bite i eat
you're bringing me a new reality
woven into my every thought
i wanna hear you say sweet things
i'm all tangled up in you
it's almost bothersome, i
don't know what to do
so tangled up in me, so beautifully
you lit up my world
you lit up my mind
you lit up my world
yeah, you started a fire
yeah, you started a fire in me
the pleasure to be around, pleasure to look into your eyes
the magical mysterious, sexy, sexy smiles
but really, it's in the eye of my own heart of my own mind
you make me wanna see the beauty of the morning
and ways differently, you make me wanna be better
i'm
all tangled up in you
it's almost bothersome, i
don't know what to do
so tangled up in me, so beautifully
you lit up my world
you lit up my mind
you lit up my world
yeah, you started a fire
yeah, you started a fire in me
yeah,
you started a fire, reconnected the wires

Nothing's
Changed
shadows swirl around my heart, like to take me hostage
it's a brittle, little ball i juggle like fire flames
it rolls out over me like a blanket of shame
till i fold it up and lay it back into the same old place
nothing's changed, nothing's changed
i wish i could stop the rain
allmightily you believe in some destiny
writing out the part for me that i just cannot be
all my failures and my flaws i've spread out too wide
you keep rubbing into my skin to iodize
nothing's
changed, nothing's changed
i wish i could stop the rain
from
falling like it does on this old house
we keep banging on the walls
slamming with the doors
stomping on the floors
the nails are rusty
the windows are cracked
and the roof is full of holes
with a basement full of secrets and lies
and an attic full of bats
is a house gonna stand
or is it gonna collapse
so we
get up and decide to paint these walls
take a broom and take a rag and give it another good scrub
bring some flowers in and let the wind blow through
till another lightning bolt strikes right through
nothing's changed, nothing's changed
i wish i could stop the rain
from falling like it does
on this old house

Underground
some
days i wanna hide
some days i wanna close my eyes
to it all for a while
cos it's all distortion i see
some days i can't breathe
some days i hang around underground
but i wanna be up
in the clouds, gonna find a way out
in the clouds, gonna find a way out
of here
some days i'm such a mess
i confess the distress i sucomb to
the lightswitch just out of reach
and i wanna be
lighter, take it a little higher
lighter, take it a little higher
so i
sing
so i
sing
i'll keep my eyes closed
and set my mind open
i'll let my heart roam
to the good i know
i'll keep my eyes closed
and set my mind open
i'll let my heart roam
to the good i know
from underground
underground
i'll
find a way out

Rien
Il n'y a rien
plus rien
rien que je n'ai pas pense
rien que je n'ai bien pense
rien
je me laisse vivre
de maintenant jusqu'au matin
dans ce vide
dans ce rien
beau rien
rien que je n'ai pas compris
rien que je n'ai bien compris
ce soir
je me laisse vivre
de maintenant jusqu'au matin
dans ce vide
ce rien sublime et triste a la fois
cette piste haut-bas
rien peut m'emporter
rien peut emmener
tout
tout
tout
tout

Waves
i
rise from you
high higher higher
than you could ever know
so i sink in you
drown deep deep deeper
deep like you could never do
i'm the waves,
i'm the waves
crashing into you,
pulling myself back
i'm the waves,
i'm the ocean
i'm the moving mass
it ain't you, it's my strength,
i'm the waves
innocence is something hard to see in your stare
honesty is something well aware
i won't deny the rain when it wets
but you don't know how numb my body gets
i'm
the waves, i'm the waves
crashing into you, pulling myself back
i'm the waves, i'm the ocean
i'm the moving mass
it ain't you, it's my strength,
i'm the waves
hey hey hey i grow
i enjoy the show
and i know how you're strong
so i'd never i'd never say you're wrong
it's just your way to heal
not unlike mine
you're a sidetrack to the freeway
know that you could never destroy me
cos i would never let me
i'm the waves, i'm the waves
crashing into you, pulling myself back
i'm the waves, i'm the ocean
i'm the moving mass
it ain't you, it's my strength,
i'm the waves

Shipwreck
i like to believe that i'm at peace
but i'm in this storm belly-deep
i've been trying to get through to you
but our line's been static and i am frantic
it's never been an easy breeze,
but now we've blown right into this
shipwreck
i'm calling for help
cos i can't go back
did you hear me through this
shipwreck
the mist and the waves
i gotta get
on land again from this
shipwreck
it's been so long
since the wind's been coming head-on
i know you feel it tooit's a rocky ride
for you and me so let's decide
how we're gonna pick the pieces up
and get ashore from
shipwreck
i'm calling for help
cos i can't go back
did you hear me through this
shipwreck
the mist and the waves
i gotta get
on land again from this
shipwreck
i
love the water but i can't be drowning
no i love the sea we share
but i've got a fare to fare ohoh
i'm swimming fast as i can
i'm not waiting for the life boat
as i look over my shoulder i see your head just
above the water
waiting 's not a game we should play,
save, save us from
shipwreck
i'm calling for help
cos i can't go back
did you hear me through this
shipwreck
the mist and the waves
i gotta get
on land again from this
shipwreck

Darkroom
i
have no questions
but if you'd talk
i'd be hanging on your words
is it the distance or
the silence where it hurts
god,
i'd love
to see the pictures you keep
in your darkroom
who are you
on days like these
i so miss being in your room
on days like these
i guess in essence
i'm there too
on days like these
so violently i miss
my home
and i trick myself into believing
it's still with you
your eyes so grey
your eyes so grey
i take off the chain
but somehow
i never really do
it hurts me to
it hurts me too
on days like these
i guess in essence i'm there too
i'm there

Fifteen
in the purple rain he looked into my eyes
and held my hand as
the northern light
washed over us
the sea the radio the shed the candlelight
anna stesia he would play on the piano
and then one night he washed me clean
and gave me my most
precious memory
oh sweet rider
the ride we rode was gold
i'll never forget you
beautiful
in the bright sunlight
i saw it glisten in his eyes
as it rolled down, he smiled
oh there is another day
oh there is another hour
i wanna go back
oh i was fifteen
and then the day came, then the day came
i knew, this wasn't for good
i had to break his heart
i still wanna take it in my arms, take it in
oh sweet rider
the ride we rode was gold
i'll never forget you
beautiful

Realities
no one ever sees exactly what i see
i wll never see exactly what you see
isn't it a strange idea
how do we ever really know what's here
so i listen to your stories
through images and words
chords and lightning
i do believe i've heard the rhyme
something really deep inside
as i've heard the distortion on the frequencies of love
a lotta lines broken with greed and fear
there's no tellin there's so many
realities
so when i hear yourswhen you hear mine
feels so goodto be understood
to understand the beauty of
somebody else
i wanna share
the lot of me
i wanna share
the light of me
i wanna share
isn't that all
we can do-do-do-do
no one ever knows where it all goes
yesterdays all the words all the feelings
moments time tomorrows
somehow there's some kind of connection
somehow we're all here in the same human boat
i'll sing it i'll paint it i'll try
all of my life
