Deep, deeper again. I give my thanks for everything strange.
You’ll fit inside here somewhere, now you’re facing all that you hate.
No, don’t try and change it, cos you know
You’ve got to go down down deep, deep.
Your will be done, your will be done, your will be done, if you do what you do. When you’re deep, go deeper again.
Give your thanks to everything you can’t explain.
You may find, inside here somewhere
There’s a point to all that is strange.

The Know
04:00

You wanna be a brainchild. You wanna bend your mind You’re itching for knowledge. You wanna feel inside Can you feel it, can you feel it
You want to feel special. That is what you deserve
You want information, but you don’t wanna learn
You wanna cut corners. Arrive before your time
You want a conversation with the Holy guy
You can feel inside but you’re never inside the Know
You can pay in kind to a terrible mind, but it’s not worth living by the time you know You can feel inside but you’re never inside the Know
You can eat desire ‘til your head is on fire But you’re dizzy with ever so far to go. Can you feel it
Can you feel it

When Hell Freezes Over
04:06

I couldn’t be just a good girl
You wouldn’t be happy ‘til I messed up
This could be such a perfect dream in some other time and in some other town When hell freezes over, that’s when I’ll be back
As soon as I’ve been to the moon, I’ll be in your arms
Cos I’m feeling patient, and much more secure
So I’m coming home when hell freezes over
I’ve often thought, how would it feel, to be strong and to be happy
Oh it’s not your problem, please don’t blame yourself
I just need to breathe again
You’re not good for my health

Vent

I’m hoping to bump into someone who might be good for me You just won’t do cos you’re too busy fuelling your apathy Take a pen and wipe out my hopes, my dreams
Funny how I always let you
Sorry seems to be the hardest word and it seems
It’s something you’re not very good at
You’ve got to vent it out. Nothing just goes away.
You’ve got to vent it out. Nothing just goes away.
I’m hoping to bump into someone who might be good in the end. You just won’t do cos you’re too into you and no one else in the end. Take a pen and wipe out my hopes, my dreams
Funny how i always let you
Sorry seems to be the hardest word and it seems it’s something you’re not very good at. You’ve got to vent it out. Nothing just goes away.
You’ve got to vent it out. Nothing just goes away.

Jealous
06:11

I’ve been your dancer, I’ve been your friend.
I’ve been the damage and you’ve been the mend.
I’ve crept in your shadow, you’ve laid down in mine.
You made me laugh when I wanted to cry.
You kept me beside you and never behind.
When I was unstable you were never unkind.
Oh I have known love and that love was mine.
The things that we don’t see when jealousy blinds.
What we see when we sleep. Loneliness lies in our wake.
Cold moves and no moves and steps we take back. It’s limited what we brave.
But we see, so we try. Gravity pulls the wrong way and we’re heartless and soulless and loveless and boldless and blue.
You gave me belonging by keeping me safe.
You were my warmth when my body would shake and there’s still a fire that burns again And again from the cold side of my bed
You’re close enough to touch, what should I do?
For I’ve seen the beauty and colour of you
Oh I have known love and that love was mine.
The things that we don’t see when jealousy blinds.
What we see when we sleep. Loneliness lies in our wake.
Cold moves and no moves and steps we take back. It’s limited what we brave.
But we see, so we try. Gravity pulls the wrong way and we’re heartless and soulless and loveless and boldless and blue.

Pleasure Ride
04:17

Sitting in my lonely chair, I do not have a care
I’ve lost the will to fight the things I still think are unfair
I’m head to head with all things dead
The miracle has left me
Now I must pray in unusual ways, dreaming where to send me
It’s my own little pleasure ride, my own little pleasure ride
It’s my own little pleasure ride, my own little pleasure ride
It’s my own little pleasure ride
And I wanna go around and round and round and round and round again. This lack of drive from 9 to 5 is starting to get to me
I take my pill that keeps me ill but makes for a better journey
I search for coins around the floor
My pockets are all empty
The whisky drawer is full no more
Drank all the stuff they sent me
It’s my own little pleasure ride, my own little pleasure ride
It’s my own little pleasure ride, my own little pleasure ride
It’s my own little pleasure ride
And I wanna go around and round and round and round and round again.

Any Other Girl

It doesn’t seem to take a lot for you to walk on by And every time you do I start to wonder why How every now and then I think of you and cry It’s just another messed up day for you and I
I feel just the same as any other girl.. would in my position in a lover’s world
I feel just the same as any other girl.. would in my position in a lover’s world
It doesn’t seem to matter what I say or what I do. I’d get a life but I’m still holding out for you It’s so much colder when you’re standing way outside
It’s just another messed up day for you and I
I feel just the same as any other girl.. would in my position in a lover’s world
I feel just the same as any other girl.. would in my position in a lover’s world

Save Me

So enchanting, so amazing, so I’ve decided to let you be the one
Keep the light on, I’m coming home
I never felt it like this and meant it, how am I supposed to knwo that way
So amazing, so addictive, so I’ve decided to let you be the one
Keep the light on, I’m coming home.
Save me, save me. They may break me, don’t let them take me from you.
If I take time to breathe, I can save you save you, I will find a way to, will you

Dream People

In my head they’re coming they’re coming closer
The voices, laughing and getting louder in my head
We hurt the soul that hurts. And we can walk behind you We take what we can take and we know where to find you. In my head they’re coming, they’re coming closer
The voices, laughing, creeping in my ear.

Woebetide

He identifies with her
He can taste her soft white skin
He wants everything from her
Woe betide
Woe betide the man she will let in
He is waiting for a sign from her
Sweet surrender in her eyes
If he finds the strength to see it through Woe betide
Woe betide the man she will let in.
