Les paroles

1. DESERT

Dark is full of rays
And this ocean is a wave
And this desert is a keyhole
Of passed dancing days

So they're yelling out for last call
And you want to comply
So you fade into the background
Dissolve into the night

Can you pull down the colossus
Can you justify her scars
Can you bring life to a desert
Can you justify her scars

You can hear the breathing
Its an unexpected beast
As the icecubes are screaming
You make your retreat
You make your retreat

Come you slashers and you rippers
And you wonders of the world
Theres a long closed fairground
And an ocean on the moon

He found himself a private desert
And sometimes he feels that it expands
Its like its got him mirrored
The way it fits into his hand
As if its tailored
If you smash yourself against his wall
Then you'll never trip
You'll never fall

"Time and the hour runs
Through the roughest day"
So you dream of lizards in fumbling foreplay
And our faults are in ourselves
Until they are unleashed
You can win all you want
As long as you cheat

He tries to make himself something special
As he tries to make his dreams ignite
He says its for Dr. Jekyll
You re a witness now to his last stand
You re in danger
But if you smash yourself against his wall
Then you'll never trip
You'll never fall

Eternal night can make it crucial
You know you ve got to make a stand
Why dont you ask the expert?
Somehow it fits, he's in command
He's been repaid he's shut you down
If you smash yourself against his wall

You'll never trip
You'll never fall
You'll never fall

You sit amidst your crayons
Extravagant balloon
Wonder if theres someone
In the ocean on the moon

But the dark is full of rays
And the desert is a wave
And the ocean is a fishbowl
With nothing on display

Well everyone is bluffing
Watch them reeling in
And if you believe them
The desert's gonna win


2. SEA OF TRANQUILITY

Suspended mess in timelessness too cold to be out waltzing.
Submerged within beneath my skin a bullet in the ocean.

Up in the sky where starfish fly a deep blue lake of ice.
A quiet sea of tranquility and who will help you now.

Nobody will ever love like I do
Nobody will ever love you like I do.

Until that breath in emptiness a darkness lay around you.
Afloat and free on a silvered sea and who will ever find you

Nobody...


3. NEMO

And I've been with the vultures and the zeroes,
High flying captain nemos,
And I say, what are you doing today, toasting the skyline, or the ninth wave,
What you believe has no light, and it's your fault

Surfing past them, someone tell me when to stop,
One or the other, see who's coming out on top,
My eyes have seen your glory fade away,
You try real hard to snatch you up a couple of miracles

And I'll come home, be a better man, if you promise not to follow,
And now, before it has begun, wherever you are from, you can go but you can't come
And what you believe has no light, and it's your fault

Surfing past them, someone tell me when to stop, one or the other,
See who's coming out on top, my eyes have seen your glory fade away,
You try real hard to snatch you up a couple of miracles

And what you believe has no light
Surfing past them, someone tell me when to stop, one or the other,
See who's coming out on top, my eyes have seen your glory fade away,
You try real hard to snatch you up a couple of miracles


4. GHOST

I wish that under crimson sky peace was made between you and I
Streets were clear and we could go to find a life that we don't know
Early wake-up twilit morning
Coffee cups bring early warning
And we both know that no one's going to win
When the walls come crashing in

I'm an innocent victim
I'm your tired eye
And I'm tired of accusations in the air
And you're gone and everybody knows you're gone
Cause nothing's changed it stays the same
And you'll stay gone when nothing else has changed

I'm the man in your closet
I'm the ghost beneath your bed
I'm buried in the thoughts that sting
The back of your head.

I'm an innocent victim
I'm a firefly
And I'm only waiting patiently right here

And you're gone and everybody knows you're gone
Nothing's changed it stays the same And you'll stay gone when nothing else has changed
And you'll stay gone while everything remains


5. CALIFORNIA

A girl is sleeping on your catwalk
She has a garland in her hair
She says, "Why don't you go to hell now
'Cause we're not going anywhere"

There's a silence in the garden
Feel it cut right through the air
What's the sum of all your losses
Do you cry when it's not there

They say it's hot in California
It's the collar of a dog
You're out to grab the piece of pieces
End it all

Beneath the ceiling of an airport
On a bridge that goes nowhere
They say the earth moves in California
You're surprised there's no one there

They say a genius never sleeps hard
They say the hounds of love don't bark
They say you won't get any warning
When you're ready to depart

They say it's hot in California
It's the collar of a dog
You're out to grab the piece of pieces
End it all

They say it's hot in California
It's the collar of a dog
You're out to grab the piece of pieces
End it all

They say it's hot in California
It's the collar of a dog
You're out to grab the piece of pieces
End it all
End it all

They say a genius never sleeps
The hounds of love don't bark
They say you won't get any warning
You depart


6. THE SECRET

Trembling her fingers through his soft graying hair
He barely noticed that she was there

The party has secrets

Toasting in vintage a man of the world
Her face is pale now mother of pearl

The party has secrets stark raving mad

What she's been hiding from them all these years
So far away now the moment is here
No one heard the thunder as he tumbled down the stairs

The party has secrets stark raving mad

And they say that he's a lunatic the marks are on her back
Short changed at the party

We all have secrets stark raving mad


7. SUN GOD

The stars awake over fields of gold
The plans we made were cold as stone
Paint this symbol on the door of your home
Bathed in their eyes I saw him grow

It's the cool of the evening
The sun god
Kisses little blue jeaned girls
As he is going down below

Don't fear the consequence
There won't be any trial
Resist the temptation of reason as you are flying
When everything goes down
We'll celebrate the start
And watch this David fold
Their house of cards

It's the cool of the evening
The sun god
Kissing little
Blue jeaned girls
A touch fanatical

(She said)
What makes you think its your
Right
My love....
You're granted birth
And it's enough
For one man to conquer
Life so dont embrace

The cool of the evening
The sun god
And everyone believes
They're on to something beautiful
It's the cool of the evening
The sun god
His pretty little blue dreams have
A price that's terrible


8. MESMER

Mr. Mesmer counts to three and the evening's done
I was high as a sunrise
Cold as a loaded gun
Tugging at my shirt she screams like a banshee

I'll hunt him down like a dog
I know where he works where he lives and the stories he's sold
Poor mans excuse for right
And a whole lot of people know where he stayed last night

So now you live within a dream
That no one ever will believe

Don't wake up the neighbours when
In the darkness I fulfill you
The last of many men
Can't you see that I am golden

And I'm going on my own
Trying to make a little sense of what I'm doing here as I juggle the sideshow
Fell down on your knees by the virgin where you got your fortune told
By the old man in Singapore now wasn't that real close
Had a handful of glitter
You'll find everything he said

And I know you had to go
And I miss the belief of her

We learn to cry at birth
We're all sitcom infants
With some god that must hate us
Check mate stranger the virgin's falling out of the sky
And you're moving like a little bunny in a black & white cartoon
I'm howling with my demons, they're candy apple red
Can't you hear the thunder rolling down
Can't you feel the thunder rolling down
As you stagger home

No one's mad enough to see
That it's winter in July
I got an animal in me
And the scream is always wild

Dont wake up the neighbours when
In the darkness I fulfill you
The last of many men
Can't you see that I am golden


9. NOVGOROD

White pearls are cast upon the ground
The drum inside my chest still pounds
Somewhere in this dark ancient sea
"From stars and sunken stone"
A wave reached up like mercury
"You are not alone"
This phosphorous light a mystery
"Hear my voice so deep inside"

Help me
Someone help me
Transparent face
Against the waves

Come rest and sleep here
With the tide
Hear my voice echo your cries
In sandcastles on an endless beach
Let the water dry your tears

Help me
Someone help me
Transparent face
Against the waves

So far away won't you come close
Just like me a lonely ghost
A shadow of myself
That only you can see
See me
You can't run, you can't hide
I am a mirror your other side
Look into my eyes

Run from me and you will die

Help me
"I am what you need"
Someone help me
"Here beneath the reef"
Transparent face
"Look into my eyes"
Against the waves
"Here beyond the shore"

Help me...


10. EASE YOUR MIND

The time we spend on living lives
Working day breakfast goodbyes
It isn't really you or me
Living these lives eternally

The man that's on my business card
A woman trying all to hard
To find something that she can feel
Well none of them are really real

Alive and wild and frightening
Just like a shooting star
Is how I really see you
When you've turned on all your charm

The little things we talk about
When you're in my arms and the lights are out
Your voice a current in the air
I feel it charge the atmosphere

You say it's getting harder
You say it's getting cold
With everything and nothing
The universe grows old

Tonight we're going to take a ride
And park the car by the seaside
And sit there on the beach and watch the tide
We can say the things we need to say
Beneath clouds of electric gray
And no-one's allowed to say they have to go

Let's go back in time
When you knew me
Live it through me
Ease your mind

Tonight we're going to take a ride
And park the car by the seaside
And sit there on the beach and watch the tide
We can say the things we need to say
Beneath clouds of electric gray
And no-one's allowed to say they have to go

Ease your mind…


11. BRAVO

Late flight to early morning sunrise
Orbit, around a moon of memory
As the light is spilling into my web of weary dreams

Superformance
Miraculous
Unbelievable

Young romantics
So glamourous
Unbelievable

Late flight to early morning sunrise
At times its gnawing at my insides
Was the only driving force of my ability to be

Grand performance
The opening night
Unbelievable

Curtain rising
A sold-out crowd
Inconceivable

And when they called my name, I said my prayer
Tried to walk up to the center stage of my dreams
It was to be the day in which I reached for my peak
Saw her in the crowd when I was looking

Was raining and pouring as I ran into the street
Like Marilyn Monroe, I held the key in disbelief and let it go

And when they called my prayer and called my name
Focused the light on the center frame
Would you believe Soon will be the day in which I reach for my sleep
I see morning slipping through my window

Was raining and pouring as I ran into the street
Like Marilyn Monroe, I held the key in disbelief and let it go

Late flight
Grand performance
Held the key
And let it go

Was raining and pouring as I ran into the street
Like Marilyn Monroe, I held the key in disbelief and let it go
