"No Religion"

"No Religion"



I'll see you in the castle,
Corner of Wigmore Street.
We'll take a drink, and maybe think,
Seek a sordid place where we can meet.
More forgotten people, rain still teeming down.
That's all there is to do,
In this desperate and dismal town.
But I still I keep on comin',
I daisy-chain my life away.
Gotta keep on doing nothing,
Till the call on Judgement Day.

Got no religion, just living hell.
If I had money, I'd drop it all in the wishing well.
Stand in the doorway, wait for a man to come.
Got no religion, and my life's just begun.

Waiting for next Sarurday night,
When it all kicks off.
I got a date with miss Ludo, Ludovica Nabokov.
Nothing happened last weekend,
I guess it never will.
It stays the same if I don't change,
There is no panacea pill.
But I still I keep on comin',
I daisy-chain my life away.
I try to keep on doing nothing,
Till the call on Judgement Day.

Got no religion, just living hell.
If I had some money, I'd drop it all in the wishing well.
Stand in the doorway, wait for a man to come.
Got no religion, and my life's just begun.

Got no religion.

I try to change most everything,
I even change my name.
I change my clothes, and I change my friends.
But I end up still the same.
"Change must come from within"
That's what the man has said...
"Willingness is all you need, son
- you're old, but you're not dead"

And still it keeps on comin',
I daisy-chain my life away.
I try to keep on doing nothing,
Till the call for Judgement Day.

Got no religion, nowhere to run
Got nothing going, and I still can't feel the sun.
Wait for a new day, a Messianic dawn,
Same terraced houses, with their cold curtains drawn.

Got no religion, just living hell.
If I had some money, I'd drop it all in the wishing well.
Stand in the doorway, wait for the man to come.
Got no religion, and my life's just begun.

Yeah my life's just begun!

"Nothing's Forever"

"Nothing's Forever"



Last night I roamed in San Francisco
Tomorrow Shibuya is my home
I will be waiting in the darkness
In the pouring rain
And always I'm alone

Walking the streets of New York City
Light years away from where I'm born
I study the faces of the people
While I'm standing in the shadows
Of their fi nal dawn

You know that NOTHING'S FOREVER
It's just for today
Can't live for the future, forget yesterday
And hold on to life, for in moments it can fade away

Maybe I'm following too closely
Sometimes you feel you've had enough
Make the most of what you have today
Just hope and pray, for those you really love

You know that NOTHING'S FOREVER
It's just for today
Can't live for the future, forget yesterday

Nothing from nothing is nothing, Amen, so I say
NOTHING'S FOREVER

Ashes to ashes

"Nyctophobia"

"Nyctophobia"



Don't blow the candle out, just leave it by my bed
With all these ghosts and visions, trolls inside my head
Just when the wolf will howl, the dogs begin to bark
This is for real, I have a fear of the dark
And as the endless nights will overturn the days
Intellectual logic seems to vanish in a haze

Paranoia has the measure of me
Hallucinations now dictate reality
I'm hearing voices now, I wish that I could see
I look around, I know there's no-one here but me
The mirror shimmers there's an angel here at last
Always demons looking back, and laughing through the glass

Nyctophobia, fear of the dark

I am confused, I really don't know what to think
Maybe Mr. Allen does 'cause he's a Harley shrink
He asks me how I feel, I mumble "just okay"
He says "ok's not a feeling, Jack, we need to peel away
The layers of your onion, your emotional disease
Blow all these candles out, I want you on your knees"

It's way too dark in here, it's silent as the grave
It's cold and clammy, like I'm sealed into a cave
There is no air in here, I'm drowning in my fear
And if I close my eyes, the ground will disappear
I have a chronic phobia, and up until this day
There is no guarantee that it will go away

Nyctophobia, fear of the dark

"Obsession"

"Obsession"



Can I feel your hair soft on wet skin
Deep inside I bleed from the blade within
Can I reach the burning, burning moon
Can I change this madness, lust consume
Breathing out and breathing in - begin

Suddenly I wake from a calling sweat
Blood red water on my head
Was I only dreaming the flesh so real
What would another good sin reveal

Breathing out and breathing in
I can't fight the drug within
Feel the first hit to the heart

You're my shot, your my obsession
Hear the voices say
I can't turn and walk away - yeah
You're my shot, your my obsession
Hear the voices

Oh - how I need to hold onto fire to win
Pumping through my veins love's adrenalin
Can you hear those voices

Breathing out and breathing in
I can't fight the drug within
Feel the first hit to the heart

You're my shot, your my obsession
Hear the voices say
I can't turn and walk away - yeah
You're my shot, your my obsession
Hear the voices say

"On The Coldest Day In Hell"

"On The Coldest Day In Hell"



Do you remember years ago?
All our hopes would ebb and flow
We thought we'd find a Promised Land
Our footprints in the sand

The mysteries, the twists of Fate
Have changed the path from love to hate
But won't erase sins of the past
They hide behind the mask

If I could conquer all our fears
Can forgiveness dry the tears?
If I falter, my soul I'll sell
On the coldest day in Hell

I'll never let you down
How can I tell you now?
But only Heaven knows
I won't let you go

I dream of demons through the night
A restless fever till morning light
My body's cold, my head's on fire
Give me back my life

Kill this ghost inside of me
Let me sail on deep blue seas
A new beginning, another page
Dawn gives in to day

I will conquer all our fears
Let forgiveness dry the tears
If I falter my soul I'll sell
On the coldest day in Hell

I'll never let you down
How can I tell you now?
But only Heaven knows
I won't let you go
I swear I'll stand my ground
How can I turn this round?
As this time Heaven knows
I won't let you know

When I'm dreaming, I'm dreaming of you
When I'm breathing, I'm breathing with you

But only Heaven knows
I won't let you go

"One Step Closer"

"One Step Closer"


Loneliness, a constant friend and lover
I know well
Crowded rooms the iron bar
That surround me
Trying hard to catch your eye
Just once, you see
Knowing from this moment if you did
We could be

[Chorus:]
One step closer
Closer than we are
One step closer
Closer than before

So many lines, you've heard them all
A lie in every one
From men who never understand
Your personality
And though we never even met
No talking needs to be done
The hum of conversation will disolve you
Into me

[Chorus x3]

"Only Time Will Tell"

"Only Time Will Tell"


You're leaving now
It's in your eyes
There's no disguising it
It really comes as no surprise
To find that you planned it all along

I see it now
Becomes so clear
Your insincerity
And me all starrey-eyed
You'd think that I would have known by now

[Chorus:]
Now, sure as the sun will cross the sky
This lie is over
Lost, like the tears that used to tide me over

(Only time will tell)
One thing is sure
That time will tell
(Only time will tell)
If you were wrong
The brightest ring around the moon
Will darken when I die

[Chorus]

[Repeat first verse]
[Repeat second verse]
[Chorus]

(Only time will tell)
You're on your own
Inside your room
(Only time will tell)
You're claiming victory
You were just using me
And there is no one you can use now

(Only time will tell)
One thing is sure
That time will tell...

"Open Your Eyes"

"Open Your Eyes"



What on earth are you doing here, in the western world?
Another situation yeah you're a different girl
You have lived your life dreaming you were someone else
Succeeding's believing in yourself

Open Your Eyes
And see the world that stands before you now
Open Your Eyes
And see the world that stands in front of you

You have spent your days trying something new
You have looked at magazine girls wishing that they were you
Do you see in photographs an angel that once was you?
Does she tell you stories that are true?

If I could stand with you right now and speak my mind
I would tell you no lies
I would shoot straight between the eyes

You have stared a thousand times right into the lens
Have you ever thought just once, does it all make sense?
Your beauty's eternal so don't just pretend
Got to wake up girl, or it's the end

"Orchard Of Mines"

"Orchard Of Mines"



Don't taint this ground
With the colour of the past
Are the sounds in bloom with you
Cos you seem like an ORCHARD OF MINES
Just take one step at a time

Oh
And you seem to break like time
So fragile on the inside
You climb these grapevines
Would you look now
Unto this pit of me on the ground
And you wander through these
To climb these grapevines,
Vines

I'll say it to be proud
Won't have my life turned upside down
Says the man with some gold forged plan
Of life so incomplete
Like weights strapped around my feet
Tread careful one step at a time

Oh
And you seem to break like time
So fragile on the inside
You climb these grapevines
Would you look now
Unto this pit of me on the ground
And you wander through these
To climb these grapevines

To know to feel to play me once again
Do you denote from what we feel
Do you not know
I see you've played the game
Do you denote

Can you feel once again
You feel
YOU!

To know to feel to play me once again
Do you denote from what we feel
Do you not know
I see you've played the game
Do you denote
Can you feel once again
You feel
YOU!

"Over And Over"

"Over And Over"



If our only chance was in today
Let it lift us, up above someway
As the evening shadows fall
I'll confide in you once more

Over, over and over again
We will resolve our true destiny
Only through Love, our passage guaranteed
Let it lift me up above

We are on a journey, to where we can't be sure
When we are as one, It opens every door
I don't want to take you, across the great divide
This horizon's nearer, much easier to find

Let it lift me up above
