Les paroles


1. ACROSS THE NIGHT

Across the night
It was the moon that stole my slumber
Across the night
I fell in love with people sleeping
And hugged a man's arthritic shoulder

I fell tired, asleep in a golden ocean
Your eyes perspired, a spike in my fascination

I don't mean to make you cry
But this feeling will run right through the night
And I'll only make you cry with these feelings

Sleepless, untamed without a leash on the light around me

So let us be married and have another baby
Coz I don't wanna be lonely I just wanna be alone
Yeh let's just get married shouting baby, baby, babies
"You'll never sleep at all"
But I don't wanna be lonely

Never seen the sunshine
From higher points than sunrise
I don't wanna be lonely
I just wanna be alone


2. TUNA IN THE BRINE (DEMO)

I found keys to my heart
when everyone's heart seems so calm
And you found the lock to my dorm
and opened the doors to my trust
Fund…. my vestry...
The light in my darkest hour is fear
Denies me of anything good
sooo, don't lose your heart you'll need it

And don´t lose your heart
you'll have to take another pill
and tell another lie
And lie amongst your lies
like tuna in the brine.

Take everything that you're not
And don't be so Scared to tamper (temper) with (temper) Tampered with evidence (tamper)
Coz you'll come along for the sun
If you come at all
The light in your darkest hour is fear
Denies me anything good
So, Don't lose your heart you'll need it

And dont lose your heart you'll have to lie amongst your lies
Like Tuna in the Brine
And dont lose your heart

And dont lose your heart
Dont lose your heart to lose your heart you'll have to take, Take and fake and take.

Painting a lie seeing the colours
But you seem closer to everything

Painting a lie seeing the colours
But you seem closer to everything

Painting a lie seeing the colours
But you seem closer to everything

Closer now than we ever have been
We're closer now than we ever should (we) be
Closer now than we've ever been before
Closer to everything

Busking for change and changing everything
Feeble fables aren't changing many things
It's my time to shine like a tuna in the brine
For my pregnant paws aren't changing anything

To all of the animals
Who keep sipping the sweat from my back,
You're making me ill
And I can't get enough
So take another pill and tell another lie
And lie amongst your lies like tuna in the brine.


3. ONE WAY MULE (DEMO)

Let my spirit ride on a one way mule
Blistered skin in a cold hearted pool
Distant emotion hides a concrete wall
Naked and anchored I'll climb right back to you

Love me for my mind, cause I'm a dangerous heart
When I've got time to kill I'm coming back to you

Distant memories in a cage by my bed
Viscid dreams stick to holes in my head
But a patient career of sleep in a Sunday dress
Rides my wake

Love me for my mind, cause I'm a dangerous heart
When I've got time to kill I'm coming back to you

I'll stake out just to find
The knife in a dangerous heart
When I've got time to kill I'm coming back to you


4. LUV YOUR LIFE (DEMO)

You don't know the truth and I love your life
And you don't know the truth and I love your life...

Thrust the candle to the dark of your disease
Burn the fishplate, execute ill memories
Labyrinth of sympathy
In which I'm lost and can't leave

And too much truth overshadows the lime lies
And what lies beneath the clouds
Is an altered perception
And I'll pay for sanity, but sanity don't come cheap

You don't know the truth and I love your life
And you don't know the truth and I love your life
Cause you don't know the truth...
And I love your life...

And you don't know the truth and I love your life
And you don't know the truth and I love your life
And you don't know the truth...
I love your life

Flinch against the fire, but this ain't winter
And I'm all by myself the way I wanna be
Where I'm content to be...to be all by myself
And frozen eyes are bound to melt

You don't know the truth and I love your life
You don't know the truth and I love your life
You don't know the truth
And I love your life...

You don't know the truth...
And you don't know the truth...
And you don't know the truth
And I love your life...

And you don't know the truth...
You...don't know...the truth
And you don't know the...
Truth...


5. ACROSS THE NIGHT (DEMO)

Across the night
It was the moon that stole my slumber
Across the night

But this feeling will run right through the night
And I'll only make you cry with these feelings

Across the night
It was the moon that stole my slumber
Across the night
I fell in love with people sleeping
Across the night Across the night Across the night
And hugged a man's arthritic shoulder

Sleepless, untamed without a leash on the light around me

I don't mean to make you cry
But this feeling will run right through the night
And I'll only make you cry with these feelings

Across the night
It was the moon that stole my slumber
Across the night
I fell in love with people sleeping
Across the night Across the night Across the night
And hugged a man's arthritic shoulder
And hugged a man's arthritic shoulder

So let us be married and have another baby
Coz I don't wanna be lonely I just wanna be alone
Yeh let's just get married shouting baby, baby, babies
Oh you'll never sleep
But I don't wanna be lonely
I just wanna be alone

Never seen the sunshine
From higher points than sunrise
I don't wanna be lonely
I just wanna be alone

Never seen the sunshine
From higher points than sunrise
I don't wanna be lonely
I just wanna be alone
