1. DREAMS

Oh my life
Is changing everyday
In every possible way

And Oh my dreams
It's never quiet as it seems
Never quiet as it seems

I know I've felt like this before
But now I'm feeling it even more
Because it came from you

And then I open up and see
The person falling here is me
A different way to be

I want more
Impossible to ignore
Impossible to ignore

And they'll come true
Impossible not to do
Impossible not to do

And now I tell you openly
You have my heart so don't hurt me
You're what I couldn't find

A totally amazing mind
So understanding and so kind
You're everything to me

Oh my life
Is changing everyday
In every possible way

And Oh my dreams
It's never quiet as it seems
'Cause you're a dream to me
Dream to me


2. LINGER

If you - If you could return
Don't let it burn - Don't let it fade
I'm sure I'm not being rude
But it's just your attitude
It's tearing me apart
It's ruining everything

I swore - I swore I would be true
And honey so did you
So why were you holding her hand?
Is that the way we stand?
Were you lying all the time?
Was it just a game to you? - But

[Chorus]
I'm in so deep
You know I'm such a fool for you
You got me wrapped around your finger
Do you have to let it linger?
Do you have to - Do you have to
Do you have to let it linger?

Oh - I thought the world of you
I thought nothing could go wrong
But I was wrong - I was wrong
If you - If you could get by
Trying not to lie
Things wouldn't be so confused and
I wouldn't feel so used
But you always really knew
I just wanna be with you - But

[Chorus]

And

[Chorus] (x2)


3. ZOMBIE

Another head hangs lowly
Child is slowly taken
And the violence cause of silence
Who are we mistaken?

But you see - It's not me - It's not my family
In your head - In your head - They are fighting
With their tanks and their bombs
And their bombs and their guns
In your head - In your head - They are crying

[Chorus]
In your head - In your head
Zombie - Zombie - Zombie
What's in your head? - In your head
Zombie - Zombie - Zombie

Another mother's breakin'
Heart is taking over
When the violence causes silence
We must be mistaken

It's the same old theme since 1916
In your head - In your head - They're still fighting
With their tanks and their bombs
And their bombs and their guns
In your head - In your head - They are dying

[Chorus]


4. ODE TO MY FAMILY

Understand the things I say
Don't turn away from me
'Cause I've spent half my life out there
You wouldn't disagree
D'you see me? - D'you see?
Do you like me? - Do you like me standing there?
D'you notice - D'you know?
Do you see me? - Do you see me?
Does anyone care?

[Chorus]
Unhappiness - Where's when I was young
And we didn't give a damn
'Cause we were raised
To see life as fun and take it if we can
My mother - My mother - She hold me
She hold me when I was out there
My father - My father - He liked me
Oh he liked me - Does anyone care?

Understand what I've become
It wasn't my design
And people everywhere think
Something better than I am
But I miss you - I miss
'Cause I liked it - 'Cause I liked it
When I was out there
D'you know this? - D'you know?
You did not find me - You did not find
Does anyone care?

[Chorus]

Does anyone care? (x7)


5. I CAN'T BE WITH YOU

Lying in my bed again
And I cry 'cause you're not here
Crying in my head again
And I know that it's not clear

Put your hands - Put your hands
Inside my face and see that it's just you
But it's bad and it's mad and it's making me sad
Because I can't be with you

[Chorus]
Be with you
Be with you
Be with you
Be with you
Be with you
Be with you
Be with
I can't be with you

Thinking back on how things were
And on how we loved so well
I wanted to be the mother of your child
And now it's just farewell

Put your hands in my hands
And come with me - We'll find another end
And my head and my head on anyone's shoulder
'Cause I can't be with you

[Chorus]

'Cause you're not here - You're not here
Baby - I can't be with you
'Cause you're not here - You're not here
Baby - Still in love with you

Still in love with you (x6)


6. SALVATION

To all those people doin' lines
Don't do it - Don't do it
Inject your soul with liberty
It's free - It's free

[Pre-Chorus]
To all the kids with heroin eyes
Don't do it - Don't do it
Because it's not not what it seems
No no - It's not not what it seems

[Chorus]
Salvation - Salvation - Salvation is free
Salvation - Salvation - Salvation is free

To all the parents with sleepless nights
Sleepless nights
Tie your kids home to their beds
Clean their heads

[Pre-Chorus]

[Chorus] (x2)


7. FREE TO DECIDE

It's not worth anything more than this at all
I'll live as I choose or I will not live at all
So return to where you come from
Return to where you dwell
Because harassment's not my forte
But you do it very well

[Chorus]
I'm free to decide - I'm free to decide
And I'm not so suicidal after all
I'm free to decide - I'm free to decide
And I'm not so suicidal after all
At all - At all - At all

You must have nothing more with your time to do
There's a war in Russia and Sarajevo too
So to hell with what you're thinking
And to hell with your narrow mind
You're so distracted from the real thing
You should leave your life behind - Behind - 'Cause

[Chorus]

I'm free to decide - I'm free to decide
And I'm not so suicidal after all
At all - At all - At all
At all - At all - At all


8. WHEN YOU'RE GONE

Hold on to love
That is what I do
Now that I've found you
And from above
Everything's stinking
They're not around you

[Pre-Chorus]
And in the night
I could be helpless
I could be lonely
Sleeping without you
And in the day
Everything's complex
There's nothing simple
When I'm not around you

But

[Chorus]
I miss you when you're gone
That is what I do - Baby
And it's going to carry on
That is what I knew - Hey baby

Hold on to my hands
I feel like sinking
Sinking without you
And to my mind
Everything's stinking
Stinking without you

[Pre-Chorus]

And

[Chorus]


9. ANIMAL INSTINCT

Suddenly something has happened to me
As I was having my cup of tea
Suddenly I was feeling depressed
I was utterly and totally stressed
Do you know you made me cry?
Do you know you made me die?

And the thing that gets to me
Is you'll never really see
And the thing that freaks me out
Is I'll always be in doubt
It is a lovely thing that we have
It is a lovely thing that we
It is a lovely thing - The animal
The animal instinct

So take my hands and come with me
We will change reality
So take my hands and we will pray
They won't take you away
They will never make me cry - No
They will never make me die

And the thing that gets to me
Is you'll never really see
And the thing that freaks me out
Is I'll always be in doubt

The animal - The animal - The animal instinct in me
It's the animal - The animal - The animal instinct in me
It's the animal - It's the animal - It's the animal instinct in me (x2)

The animal - The animal - The animal instinct in me
It's the animal - It's the animal - It's the animal instinct in me


10. PROMISES (RADIO EDIT)

You better belive I'm coming
You better believe what I say
You better hold on to your promises
Because you bet - You'll get what you deserve
She's going to leave him over
She's gonna take her love away
So much for your eternal vows
Well - It does not matter anyway

[Pre-Chorus]
Why can't you stay here awhile?
Stay here awhile
Stay with me

[Chorus]
Oh - All the promises we made
All the meaningless and empty words
I prayed - Prayed - Prayed
Oh - All the promises we broke
All the meaningless and empty words
I spoke - Spoke - Spoke

What of all the things that you taught me
What of all the things that you'd say
What of all your prophetic preaching
You're just throwing it all away
Maybe we should burn the house down
Have ourselves another fight
Leave the cobwebs in the closet
'Cause tearing them out is just not right

[Pre-Chorus]

[Chorus]


11. ANALYSE

Close your eyes
Close your eyes
Breathe the air out there
We are free
We can be wide open
For you open my eyes
To the beauty I see
We will pray - We will stay
Wide open

(x2)
Don't analyse
Don't analyse
Don't go that way
Don't lead that way
That would paralyze your evolution

[Chorus] (x2)
La La La
This greatest moment
La La La
The strangest day
La La La
The greatest love of them all

Close your eyes
Close your eyes
Breathe the air out there
Fantasize - Fantasize
We are open
For you open my eyes
To the beauty I see
We will pray - We will stay
Together

[Chorus] (x2)

La La La La La La ...
