when you screw up your eyes when you screw up your face when you throw out your arms and keep changing your shape taste the taste in your mouth taste the taste on your tongue on the film on your eyes of the way i've become what do i do when you screw up your eyes? what do i do when you screw up your face? what do i do when you throw out your arms fall on the floor and keep changing your shape? jump right into your mouth? jump around on your tongue? and the film on your eyes of the way i've become makes me sick at the way that i try anything in the world to impress that i'm doing this only for you

tell me who doesn't love what can never come back you can never forget how it used to feel the illusion is deep it's as deep as the night i can tell by your tears you remember it all i am paralysed by the blood of christ though it clouds my eyes i can never stop how it feels to be dry walking bare in the sun every mirage i see is a mirage of you as i cool in the twilight taste the salt on my skin i recall all the tears all the broken words i am paralysed by the blood of christ though it clouds my eyes i can never stop when the sunset's glow drifts away from you you'll no longer know if any of this was really true at all...

A nightmare of you Of death in the pool Wakes me up at quarter to three I'm lying on the floor of the night before With a stranger lying next to me A nightmare of you Of death in the pool I see no further now than this dream The trembling hands of the trembling man Hold my mouth To hold in a scream I try to think To make it slow If only here is where i go If this is real I have to see I turn on fire And next to me... It looks good! It tastes like nothing on earth It looks good! It tastes like nothing on earth It's so smooth it even feels like skin It tells me how it feels to be new it tells me how it feels to be new a thousand voices whisper it true it tells me how it feels to be new and every voice belongs every voice belongs to you

Midnight, our sons and daughters Were cut down and taken from us. Hear their heartbeat We hear their heartbeat. In the wind we hear their laughter In the rain we see their tears. Hear their heartbeat, we hear their heartbeat. Night hangs like a prisoner Stretched over black and blue. Hear their heartbeats We hear their heartbeats. In the trees our sons stand naked Through the walls our daughter cry See their tears in the rainfall.

You know he got the cure But then he went astray He used to stay awake To drive the dreams he had away. He wanted to believe In the hands of love. His head it felt heavy As he came across the land A dog started cryin' Like a broken-hearted man At the howling wind At the howling wind. He went deeper into black Deeper into white. He could see the stars shine Like nails in the night. He felt the healing Healing, healing, healing hands of love Like the stars shiny, shiny from above. A hand in the pocket Fingering the steel The pistol weighed heavy And his heart he could feel was beating Beating, beating, beating, Oh my love, oh my love Oh my love, oh my love. So hands that build Can also pull down The hands of love.

We turn away to face the cold, enduring chill As the day begs the night for mercy, love. A sun so bright it leaves no shadows Only scars carved into stone on the face of earth. The moon is up and over One Tree Hill We see the sun go down in your eyes. You run like a river on to the sea You run like a river runs to the sea. And in the world, a heart of darkness, a fire-zone Where poets speak their heart then bleed for it Jara sang, his song a weapon in the hands of love. You know his blood still cries from the ground. It runs like a river runs to the sea. It runs like a river to the sea. I don't believe in painted roses or bleeding hearts While bullets rape the night of the merciful. I'll see you again when the stars fall from the sky And the moon has turned red over One Tree Hill. We run like a river runs to the sea We run like a river to the sea. And when it's rainin', rainin' hard That's when the rain will break a heart. Rainin', rainin' in your heart Rainin' in your heart. Rainin', rain into your heart Rainin', rainin', rainin' Rain into your heart. Rainin', ooh, rain in your heart, yeah. Feel it. Oh great ocean Oh great sea Run to the ocean Run to the sea.

In the distance, she saw me comin' round I was callin' out, I was callin' out. Still shakin', still in pain You put me back together again. I was cold and you clothed me, honey I was down, and you lifted me, honey. Angel, angel or devil? I was thirsty And you wet my lips. You, I'm waiting for you You, you set my desire I trip through your wires. I was broken, bent out of shape I was naked in the clothes you made. Lips were dry, throat like rust You gave me shelter from the heat and the dust. No more water in the well No more water, water. Angel, angel or devil? I was thirsty And you wet my lips. You, I'm waiting for you You, you set my desire I trip through your wires. Oh I need, oh I need Oh I need, oh I need it. Oh I need, oh I need All I need, yeah, yeah! Thunder, thunder on the mountain There's a raincloud In the desert sky. In the distance She saw me comin' round I was callin' out I was callin' out.

Desert sky, dream beneath the desert sky. The rivers run but soon run dry. We need new dreams tonight. Desert rose, dreamed I saw a desert rose Dress torn in ribbons and bows Like a siren she calls (to me). Sleep comes like a drug in God's country Sad eyes, crooked crosses, in God's country Set me alight, we'll punch a hole right through the night. Every day the dreamers die to see what's on the other side. She is liberty, and she comes to rescue me. Hope, faith, her vanity The greatest gift is gold. Sleep comes like a drug in God's country Sad eyes, crooked crosses, in God's country Naked flame, she stands with a naked flame I stand with the sons of Cain Burned by the fire of love Burned by the fire of love.

And so she woke up Woke up from where she was lyin' still. Said I gotta do something About where we're goin'. Step on a fast train Step out of the driving rain, maybe Run from the darkness in the night. Singing ah, ah la la la de day Ah la la la de day. Sweet the sin, bitter the taste in my mouth. I see seven towers, but I only see one way out. You gotta cry without weeping, talk without speaking Scream without raising your voice. You know I took the poison, from the poison stream Then I floated out of here, singing Ah la la la de day Ah la la la de day. She walks through the streets With her eyes painted red Under black belly of cloud in the rain. In through a doorway She brings me white golden pearls Stolen from the sea. She is ragin' She is ragin' And the storm blows up in her eyes. She will suffer the needle chill She's running to stand still.

In the howlin' wind Comes a stingin' rain See it drivin' nails Into the souls on the tree of pain. From the firefly A red orange glow See the face of fear Runnin' scared in the valley below. Bullet the blue sky Bullet the blue sky Bullet the blue Bullet the blue. In the locust wind Comes a rattle and hum. Jacob wrestled the angel And the angel was overcome. You plant a demon seed You raise a flower of fire. We see them burnin' crosses See the flames, higher and higher. Woh, woh, bullet the blue sky Bullet the blue sky Bullet the blue Bullet the blue. Suit and tie comes up to me His face red like a rose on a thorn bush Like all the colours of a royal flush And he's peelin' off those dollar bills (Slappin' 'em down) One hundred, two hundred. And I can see those fighter planes And I can see those fighter planes Across the tin huts as children sleep Through the alleys of a quiet city street. Up the staircase to the first floor We turn the key and slowly unlock the door As a man breathes into his saxophone And through the walls you hear the city groan. Outside, is America Outside, is America America. See across the field See the sky ripped open See the rain comin' through the gapin' wound Howlin' the women and children Who run into the arms Of America.

I have climbed the highest mountains I have run through the fields Only to be with you Only to be with you. I have run, I have crawled I have scaled these city walls These city walls Only to be with you. But I still haven't found What I'm looking for. But I still haven't found What I'm looking for. I have kissed honey lips Felt the healing in her finger tips It burned like fire (I was) burning inside her. I have spoke with the tongue of angels I have held the hand of a devil It was warm in the night I was cold as a stone. But I still haven't found What I'm looking for. But I still haven't found What I'm looking for. I believe in the Kingdom Come Then all the colours will bleed into one Bleed into one. But yes, I'm still running. You broke the bonds And you loosed the chains Carried the cross of my shame Oh my shame, you know I believe it. But I still haven't found What I'm looking for. But I still haven't found What I'm looking for. But I still haven't found What I'm looking for. But I still haven't found What I'm looking for.

I wanna run, I want to hide I wanna tear down the walls That hold me inside. I wanna reach out And touch the flame Where the streets have no name. I wanna feel sunlight on my face. I see the dust-cloud Disappear without a trace. I wanna take shelter From the poison rain Where the streets have no name Where the streets have no name Where the streets have no name. We're still building and burning down love Burning down love. And when I go there I go there with you (It's all I can do). The city's a flood, and our love turns to rust. We're beaten and blown by the wind Trampled in dust. I'll show you a place High on a desert plain Where the streets have no name Where the streets have no name Where the streets have no name. We're still building and burning down love Burning down love. And when I go there I go there with you (It's all I can do).

Hold up Hold on Don't be scared, You'll never change what's been and gone May your smile, (may your smile) Shine on, (shine on) Don't be scared, (don't be scared) Your destiny may keep you warm, 'Cause all of the stars, Have faded away Just try not to worry, You'll see them someday, Take what you need, And be on your way and Stop crying your heart out Get up, (get up) Come on, (come on) Why you scared? (I'm not scared) You'll never change what's been and gone 'Cause all of the stars, Have faded away Just try not to worry, You'll see them some day, Take what you need, And be on your way and Stop crying your heart out 'Cause all of the stars, Have faded away Just try not to worry, You'll see them someday. Just take what you need, And be on your way and Stop crying your heart out We're all of the stars, We're fading away. Just try not to worry, You'll see us someday. Just take what you need, And be on your way and Stop crying your heart out...
