Sad Clown
05:18
|
|||
|
I put on my makeup
With a tiny paintbrush
And I watch my teardrops fall like diamonds
I perform my magic
With an air so tragic
Every waking hour feels like dying
Baby, I’m just a sad clown
But you can make me a happy man
Give me a smile
Stay for a while
If you can’t save me
Nobody can
All the ones who loved me
Now are afraid of me
Everybody says I’ve lost my mind
All the ones who watched me
Now won’t even touch me
Everybody’s leaving me behind
Baby, I’m just a sad clown
But you can make me a happy man
Give me a smile
Stay for a while
If you can’t save me
Nobody can
Baby, I’m just a sad clown
But you can make me a happy man
I don’t need pity
Long as you’re with me
If you can’t save me
Nobody can

Shooting star
You found me down in a lonely world
You fell so fast and you fell so far
All the way into my heart
Every night
I go back to that place just to send
A little prayer to the stars on high
That I might see you again
Planes in the night sky kind of remind me of you
Lights on the highway, they look a bit like you too
A couple thousand years isn’t so long to wait
Make me a promise that you’re not gonna be late
Shooting star
You found me down in a lonely world
You fell so fast and you fell so far
All the way into my heart
Every night
I go back to that place just to send
A little prayer to the stars on high
That I might see you again
Shooting star
You found me down in a lonely world
You fell so fast and you fell so far
All the way into my heart
What a shame
I should have known that you couldn’t stay
But for a moment a little spark
Turned into a little flame

Got Me Wondering
03:09
|

|
I am losing my mind
You’re all that I think about anymore
Now all day and all night
You’re all that I dream about anymore
Oh, is it worse to try and fail
Or never stand a chance
You’ve really got me wondering
My heart is slowly breaking
My faith in love is fading
And you don’t even know my name
I am losing my mind
It’s like I don’t have a life anymore
I am falling behind
You’re all that I care about anymore
Oh, is it worse to love and lose
Or never play the game
You’ve really got me wondering
My heart is slowly breaking
My faith in love is fading
And you don’t even know my name
Oh, is it worse to try and fail
Or never stand a chance
You’ve really got me wondering
My heart is slowly breaking
My faith in love is fading
And you don’t even know my name
Oh, is it worse to love and lose
Or never play the game
You’ve really got me wondering
My heart is slowly breaking
My faith in love is fading
When you don’t even know my name
You don’t even know my name

N. E. Thing U Want
03:16
|
|||
|
I don't care
I don't care
Anything you want is fine with me
I'm not here
I'm not there
I'm up in a cloud of apathy
And though I still feel the pain
It doesn't hit me the same
I won't remember tomorrow
How I'm bleeding today
And though you're acting so kind
I know you're hoping I'll cry
And when I give it some thought
I think I don't really mind
You win
Once again
I just fake a smile and take your hand
Giving out
I’m giving in
As I'm sinking slowly in the sand
And though I still feel the pain
It doesn't hit me the same
I won't remember tomorrow
How I'm bleeding today
And though you're acting so kind
I know you're hoping I'll cry
And when I give it some thought
I think I don't really mind
I don't care
I don't care
Anything you want is fine with me
I'm not here
I'm not there
I just want to get some sleep
I just want to get some sleep
I just want to get some sleep

Words II Explain
03:55
|
|||
|
Wish I had the words to explain how I feel
Everything that's happened is so perfectly surreal
And when I see you, darling, then I get the strangest chill
I'm looking for the words to explain
I have to find a turn of phrase that captures your heart
It can't be too derivative or sexual or stark
Gotta cut like a knife, gotta glow in the dark
I'll never find the words to explain
What it means to love somebody
How it hits you so abruptly
Why my life has changed forever
In one single day
Wish I had the words to explain what you did
Lingering effects of you are messing with my head
One minute I'm elated then I wish that I were dead
How can I find the words to explain
Gotta write a song that catches on like the plague
Cool kids on the Atlantic coast will think it's all the rage
And maybe one will point you to its humble little page
And finally you'll hear me explain
What it means to love so madly
How it hurts to lose so badly
Why my strength is slowly draining
When I'm far from you
Wish I had the words to explain how I feel
Everyone around me seems to think it's no big deal
But when I see you lately I still get that certain thrill
I'll never find the words to explain

Missing Piece
03:46
|
|||
|
Somebody save me 'cause I'm running out of ways
To say I'm sorry for the things that I've done wrong
Somebody show me what it means not to be lonely
How to fit into the world, how to belong
‘Cause I’m too young but I'm too old
Will I ever fit the mould
Of what people expect me to be?
If my stories were all told
If I finally sold my soul
Would I find the missing piece?
Somebody sell me all the chemicals to help me
Find a temporary comfort with myself
Somebody shake me, from this nightmare please awake me
Light a path to guide me up and out of hell
‘Cause all around love’s bought and sold
While I sit here getting old
Guess this world never cared for me
And how can you be so damn cold
When I need a hand to hold
Help me find the missing piece

Messiah
04:41
|

|
The flowers are dying
The children are crying
All the markets have crashed
Streets are covered with ash
The churches are closing
The savior is dozing
In the dead of the night
You hear someone sigh
It’s you, my friend, it’s you we need
To help us hold the line
We need a leader who can pull
Us through our darkest time
Now you’re walking alone
Thinking back to your home
Are your children in bed?
Are they lost, are they dead?
It’s cold and silent
On this once-splendid island
And you’re thinking aloud
Staring up at the clouds
Could it be true, could it be me
Am I the chosen guide
Am I the leader who can pull
Us to the other side
The place is here
The time is now
You know what you must do
Forget your fears
Repeat the vow
It all depends on you
The place is here
The time is now
The dawn is breaking soon
Forget your fears
And take a bow
The world belongs to you

Voyager 1

Take this message written in my heart
Trade it, sell it, spread it near and far
When you leave it written in the stars
Bring it back to me
Someone, somewhere
Is there someone out there?
Anyone, anywhere
If there’s anybody out there
Don’t let time forget me
No, this time don’t let me
Go before I tell my story
Like those who came before me
Carry, carry
Carry on till morning
Never, never
Never stop exploring
While I sit here burning
Don’t think of returning
Fly until you find another
World that fills you with wonder
Take this music written long ago
Keep it, save it, never let it go
When you play it, let the people know
It belonged to me
Someone, somewhere
Is there someone out there?
Anyone, anywhere
If there’s anybody out there
Don’t let time forget me
No, this time don’t let me
Go before I tell my story
Like those who came before me
Carry, carry
Carry on till morning
Never, never
Never stop exploring
While I sit here burning
Don’t think of returning
Fly until you find another
World that fills you with wonder

Albatross
04:29
|
|||
|
I watched you go
As you turned your back to me
You spread your wings
And set out across the sea
I'll never know
If you got where you wanted to be
But I hope and I pray
That you’ll come back to stay
In half a century
Albatross, I'm at a loss
Since you left nothing has been the same
Come back
Don't you know you were my only friend?
Will I ever see you again?
Albatross, I'm at a loss
Why did I think I could keep you at all?
Flying over oceans is all that you do
My words have no sway over you
I go each day
To a hill by the seaside
I feel the wind
And I look, and I look to the sky
I don't expect
You to send any kind of a sign
But I hope and I pray
That you’ll come back to stay
When I learn how to turn back time
