Gunning down romance...

Gunning down romance...


Love and other moments are just chemical reactions in yourbrain
And feelings of aggressions are the absence of the love drug in
Your veins
Love come quickly
Because I feel my self-esteem is caving in
It's on the brink
Love come quickly
Because I don't think I can keep this monster in
It's in my skin

Love and other socially acceptable emotions are morphine
They're morphine
Cleverly concealing primal urges often felt bur rarely seen
Rarely seen
Love I beg you
Lift me up into that privileged point of view
The world of two
Love don't leave me
Because I console myself that Hallmark™ cards are true
I really do

I'm gunning down romance
It never did a thing for me
But heartache and misery
Ain't nothing but a tragedy

Love don't leave me

Take these broken wings
I'm going to take these broken wings
And learn to fly
And learn to fly away
And learn to fly away

I'm gunning down romance

Gypsy girl...

Gypsy girl...


So gypsy
Was a sleek and silver gypsy
Who knocked upon my door
I turn her away
But she won't take no anymore
Well I've been stomping on the doors
And I've been peeling off the walls
Just to make sense and reason
And ohhhhhh
I can't addict your shame
(?)
She sayin'
I'll move you
Push through you
I'll take your mind in tonight
And she won't stop
Solidly she takes you
And the visions fade away
Well if you're glad, be her captive,
You won't turn your day away
Well you'll be clawing on the ceiling
To escape what you are feeling
But the pleasure carries on...
Well you'll been stomping down the doors
And you'll been peeling off the walls
Just to make sense and reason
And ohhhhhh
I can't addict the shame
I'll move you
Push through you
I'll take your mind in tonight
I'll move you
Push through you
I'll take your mind in tonight
And she won't stop...

Hold me

Hold me


Hey,
If we can't find our way out of these problems
then maybe we dont need this
standing face to face
like enemies at war we build defences
And secret hiding places
I might need you to hold me tonight
I might need you to say it's alright
I might need you to make the first stand
because tonight I'm finding it hard to be your man
hold me tonight
say it's allright
Hey
More than angry words i hate this silence
it's getting so loud
well i wanna scream
but bitterness has silenced these emotions
it's getting hard to breathe
so tell me isn't happiness
worth more than a gold diamond ring?
i'm willing to do anything
to calm the storm in my heart
i've never been the praying kind
but lately i've been down upon my knees
not looking for a miracle
just a reason to believe

i might need you to hold me tonight
i might need you to say it's alright
i might need you to make the first stand
because tonight i'm finding it hard to be your man

Do you remember not long ago?
when we used to live for the night time
cherish each moment
now we don't live we exist
we just run through our lives
so alone
that's why you've got to hold me

Hey,
If we can't find our way out of these problems
then maybe we dont need this
standing face to face
like enemies at war we build defences
And secret hiding places

I might need you to hold me tonight
I might need you to say it's alright
I might need you to make the first stand
because tonight I'm finding it hard to be your man...

I don't care

I don't care


I ride this train
In the windswept afternoon
And the sunlight warms the faces
Of the faithless who are waiting
I ride this train
But I need a conversation
Mozambique or was it Veronique?
How about you pick the subject
and I’ll listen to you

(Chorus
People tell me that I feel too much
But I don’t care, I don’t care
People tell me that I need too much
But I don’t care, no I don’t care

I ride this train
In a dreamlike state of mind
Through a field of frozen memories
imagination racing
I ride this train
But I need to make connections
No I wasn’t staring, I was only trying
To get some substance, to get some meaning

(Repeat Chorus)

People tell me that I feel too much
Oh no ’cause I don’t care, no I just don’t care anymore
As I ride this train

People tell me that I feel too much
But I don’t care, no I don’t care
People tell me that I need too much
But I don’t care, no I don’t care
People tell me that I feel too much
Oh no ’cause I don’t care, no I just don’t care anymore
As I ride this train
As I ride this train (People tell me that I feel too much)
As I ride this train
Can you ride this train? (People tell me that I need too much)
As I ride this train
As I ride this train
(People tell me that I feel too much)
(People tell me that I need too much)

I don't know you anymore

I don't know you anymore


I would like to visit you for a while
Get away and out of this city
Maybe I shouldn't have called but someone had to be the first tobreak
We can go sit on your back porch
Relax
Talk about anything
It doesn't matter
I'll be courageous if you can pretend that you've forgiven me

Because I don't know you anymore
I don't recognize this place
The picture frames have changed and so has your name
We don't talk much anymore
We keep running from the pain
But what I wouldn't give to see your face again

Springtime in the city
Always such relief from the winter freeze
The snow was more lonely than cold if you know what I mean
Everyone's got an agenda
Do't stop keep that chin up you'll be alright
Can you believe what a year it's been
Are you still the same?
Has your opinion changed?

Because I don't know you anymore
I don't recognize this place
The picture frames have changed and so has your name
We don't talk much anymore
We keep running from these sentences
But what I wouldn't give to see your face again

I know I let you down
Again and again
I know I never really treated you right
I've paid the price
I'm still paying for it every day

So maybe I shouldn't have called
Was it too soon to tell?
Oh what the hell
It doesn't really matter
How do you redefine something that never really had a name?
Has your opinion changed?

Because I don't know you anymore
I don't recognize this place
The picture frames have changed and so has your name
We don't talk much anymore
We keep running from the pain
But what I wouldn't give to see your face again

I see your face
I see your face...

 

[GKZ]

I knew I loved you

I knew I loved you


Maybe it's intuition
But some things you just don't question
Like in your eyes
I see my future in an instant
And there it goes
I think I've found my best friend
I know that it might sound more than a little crazy
But I believe

CHORUS
I knew I loved you before I met you
I think I dreamed you into life
I knew I loved you before I met you
I have been waiting all my life

There's just no rhyme or reason
Only this sense of completion
And in your eyes
I see the missing pieces
I'm searching for
I think I've found my way home

I know that it might sound more than a little crazy
But I believe

Repeat - Chorus

A thousand angels dance around you
I am complete now that I've found you...

 

[GKZ]

I want you

I want you


Anytime I need to see your face I just close my eyes
And I am taken to a place
Where your crystal minds and magenta feelings
Take up shelter in the base of my spine
Sweet like a chica cherry cola
I don't need to try to explain
I just hold on tight and If it happens again
I may move so slightly to the arms
And the lips and the face
Of The Human Cannonball that
I need to I want to...

Bridge)

Come stand a little bit closer
Breathe in and get a bit higher
You'll never know what hit you when
I get to you

(Chorus)

Ooh I want you, I don't know if I need you but
Ooh I'd die to find out
Ooh I want you, I don't know if I need you but
Ooh I'd die to find out

(Verse 2)

I'm the kind of person who endorses a deep commitment
Getting comfy getting perfect is what I live for
But a look and then a smell of perfume
It's like I'm down on the floor
And I Don't know what I'm in for
Conversation has a time and place in the interaction
Of a lover and a mate but the time of talking
Using symbols, using words can be likened
To a deep sea diver who is swimming with a raincoat

(Bridge)

(Chorus)

Ooh, ahh...
Ooh, ahh...

(Verse 1)

(Chorus)

So can we find out?

(Chorus x2)

 

[GKZ]

I'll bet he was cool

I'll bet he was cool


You know every once in a while
I shoot the breeze I spend my time
I talk about silly things
I like to talk about Jesus Christ
'Cos I wonder what would happen if he passed you by
Would you be scared? Would you believe in him?
Would you bust your asses to get him institutionalized?
Well, I bet he'd be cool; I bet he'd be damn good looking
I bet that he smelt divine
I'm not talking about Calvin Klein's Obsession
Just one of those people smell good all the time
There's no reason why
What would he wear? Would he wear Tommy Hilfiger?
Or prefer Urban Outfitted? I don't think so
Well, I bet he liked Gaultier
but you'd never find him in it; I bet he liked Gaultier
Lord I need your protection spend some time in my direction
I need your protection spend some time in my direction
I need your protection spend some time in my direction
You know every once and a while
I shoot the breeze I spend my time
I talk about silly things
And tonight I'd like to talk to you about Jesus Christ
'Cos I wonder how we'd deal if He just passed you by
I bet he'd be a star
I bet my star wars figures he would be a movie star
A Quentin Tarantino next-big-thing
Prima Donna, then he'd appear on Oprah
You know what? I don't think so
I bet my speeder bike he'd turn his back on all of that
Lord I need your protection spend some time in my direction
I need your protection spend some time in my direction
I need your protection spend some time in my direction
Some people have just got it
You know like standing next to Elvis Presley
Well then multiply that feeling by 1 million
and you know whatI'm talking about
Well I'll bet he was cool
Man I bet that cowboy was so damn good looking...

Insistable

Insistable


When the moonlight crawls along the street
Chasing away the summer heat
Footsteps outside somewhere below
The world revolves, I'd let it go
We build our church above the street
We practice love between these sheets
The candy sweetness scent of you
It bathes my skin, I'm stained by you
And all I have to do is hold you
There's a racing within my heart
And I am barely touching you

Chorus:

Turn the lights down low
Take it off
Let me show
My love for you
Insatiable
Turn me on
Never stop
Wanna taste every drop
My love for you
Insatiable

The moonlight plays upon your skin
A kiss that lingers takes me in
I fall asleep inside of you
There are no words
There's only truth
Breathe in Breathe out
There is no sound
We move together up and down
We levitate our bodeis soar
Our feet don't even touch the floor
But nobody knows you like I do
The world doesn't understand
That I grow stronger in your hands

Chorus 2 times

We never sleep we're always holdin' hands
Kissin' for hours talkin' and makin' plans
I feel like a better man
Just being in the same room
We never sleep there's just so much to do
So much to say
can't close my eyes when I'm with you
Insatiable the way I'm lovin' you

Chorus 2 times

To The Moon And Back

To The Moon And Back

She's taking her time making up the reasons
To justify all the hurt inside
Guess she knows from the smiles and the look in their eyes
Everyone's got a theory about the bitter one
They're saying, "Mama never loved her much"
And, "Daddy never keeps in touch
That's why she shies away from human affection"
But somewhere in a private place
She packs her bags for outer space
And now she's waiting for the right kind of pilot to come
And she'll say to him
She's sayin

Chorus
I would fly up to the moon and back if you'll be...
If you'll be my baby
I've Got a ticket for a world where we belong
So would you be my baby?

She can't remember a time when she felt needed
If love was red then she was color blind
All her friends, well they've been trialed for treason
And crimes that were never defined
She's saying, "Love is like a barren place,
And reaching out for human faith
It's like a journey I just don't have a map for"
So baby's gonna take a dive and
Push the shift to overdrive
Send a signal that she's hanging
All her hopes on the stars
What a pleasant dream
She's sayin

Chorus

Mama never loved her much
And, Daddy never keeps in touch
That's why she shies away from human affection
But somewhere in a private place
She packs her bags for outer space
And now she's waiting for the right kind of pilot to come
And she'll say to him
She's sayin
