Safe on the shore I've been sleeping 
Faced by the thoughts I've been keeping 
To break down the door of my life 
I need more texture 

You need to give me more texture, texture, texture 
You need to give me more texture 

So deep inside I've been dreaming
In a space too confined, too concealing
It's a race to remind you of days I can't find 

You need to give me more texture, texture, texture 
You need to give me more

To break down the door of my life 
I need more texture 

You need to give me more
You need to give me more
Texture, texture, texture
You need to give me more texture, texture 

I always thought the way you talked was neat 
And I dreamed that when you speak, you speak to me
But you're always out of reach
And I can't control my speech
And I'm scared that when we meet, I'll want to touch you

I want to touch you
I want to touch you
I want to touch you
I want to touch you

You're the only soul inside that makes me shake
And the crazy senseless things you make me take
It would really make my day
If you'd only move away
'Cause I'm scared that if you stay, I'll want to touch you

I want to touch you
I want to touch you
I want to touch you 

But you're always out of reach
And I can't control my speech
And I'm scared that when we meet
I'm fermenting, can't you see

I want to touch you 
I want to touch you 
I want to touch you 
I want to touch you 
I want to touch you 
I want to touch you 
I want to touch you 
I want to touch you 
Touch you, touch you, touch you, touch you, touch you 

I've never seen you when you're smiling
It really gets under my skin 
You say it's easy when it's faster 
I still can't guess what you're after 

It's the colour of your skin
Your skin is black metallic
It's the colour of your skin 
Your skin is black metallic
Your skin is black metallic
Your skin is black metallic

I think of you when you're sleeping 
Of all the secrets that you're keeping
You can't stay all day under the covers
'Cause under there you'll discover

It's the colour of your skin
Your skin is black metallic
It's the colour of your skin
Your skin is black metallic
Your skin is black metallic
You're turning black metallic...

It's the colour of your skin
It's the colour of your skin...

Your skin is black metallic
Your skin is black metallic
Your skin is black metallic
You're turning black metallic

It's the colour of your skin
Your skin is black metallic
Your skin is black metallic
Your skin is black metallic
Your skin is black metallic
Your skin is black metallic
Your skin is black metallic 

Far from the place where I start 
Is a message that you bring
Dashed aside and torn apart
Apologizing as I write

Sometimes I fade away
Sometimes I fade away
Sometimes I fade away
Sometimes...

The shame of never meaning what I say
Of looking 'round for something new
To chase the eagerness away
I use the energy to stay
Slowly falling as I fade

Indigo is blue
Indigo is blue

Sometimes I fade away
Sometimes I fade away
Sometimes I fade away
Sometimes I fade away
I fade away... 

I'm only waiting, 'cause she won't care
Shivers, shakes, and shallow
Hide the taste that's always there
I can say she makes no sense
My dreams are not drawn on much

'Cause she's my friend
'Cause she's my friend
'Cause she's my friend - oh
'Cause she's my friend - oh
'Cause she's my friend - oh
'Cause she's my friend

I found you in a garden in my sleep
But I'm walking over gravel
Forming blisters on my feet
You give me all the reasons that make no sense
I only choose to be here

'Cause she's my friend
'Cause she's my friend
'Cause she's my friend - oh
'Cause she's my friend - oh
'Cause she's my friend - oh
'Cause she's my friend

Oh, oh, oh, oh...

'Cause she's my friend - oh, oh, oh, oh
'Cause she's my friend - oh, oh, oh, oh
'Cause she's my friend - oh, oh, oh, oh
'Cause she's my friend - oh, oh, oh 

You're wasting time
Time to shake and throw down
But I can't fight
You are the one to say goodbye
And when you shout my mouth is dry
Only when you try
Is your shallow water running high
You know what's inside

So glad to see
You take my hand between your knees
And once inside
I'll only take the things that shine
You always said those things were mine
You only said goodbye
When your shallow water got too high
You know what's inside

Only when you try
Because your shallow water growing high
You know what's inside
You know what's inside
You know what's inside 

Sugar in the heart is burning
Sweet on lips and eyes are glowing
All the things you take are spinning 'round

Such a waste but you can't taste
What's coming down
All the time you save
You can turn this movie around

Needle stings and blisters breaking
Swinging moods and conscious fading
All the things you dream while spinning 'round
Always it seems to bring you, bring you down

All the time you save
You can turn this movie around
You can turn this movie around

Ferment
Ferment
Ferment
Ferment

Judy's always fading sugar voices when the sweetness is fermented
Ferment
Fermenting, fermenting, fermenting, oh

Light, your fading light
Ferment your life
Your fading light
Ferment your life
Fermenting, fermenting, fermenting... 

So make it shine
No need to fade
I'll make it hard on you
I'll make it glow
No need to show you this time
I'll make it easy

And I know
The sunlight bleaches you
It colours everything you do
And I know
A flower's fading far too soon

So think of a time
It's something to cling to
Imagine a life
That never escapes you
Conceal it behind
The colour and perfume
A flower to hide
A violet surprise
And I know
The sunlight bleaches you
It colours everything you do
And I know
A flower's fading far too soon

And I know
The sunlight bleaches you
It colours everything you do
And I know
The sunlight bleaches you
A flower's fading far too soon 

Shout just to make it clear
So loud so as you don't hear
That I made no sound
The second time around
If all is turned around

So smooth just to show you care
You built a new mountain there
That I can tumble down
The very first time around
The very first time around
The very first time around

I let you see how high life could be
But you dropped me down
The very first time around
The very first time around
The very first time around

(are you in love with someone) ??? (let me tumble down) ??? 

You're saying far too much
Your thoughts that twist and touch
You're killing time in the dark
That's coming down
Ah that's coming down
Ah...

You are young and full of heart
You are real but you are torn apart

It's taking all my time
How many days to find
Just staring up at the sun
That's coming down
Ah that's coming down
Ah...

You are young and full of heart
You are light and you are dark
You are real but torn apart
You are losing

You are young and full of heart
You are light and you are dark
Looks like you but looks you may ??? 
You are real but you are torn apart
Ah ... Ah... 

??? <--- THIS IS FOR THE WHOLE #&@*! SONG! 
(Oh safe towards yourself) 
(She wants you with all your heart)

Between me always spinning ride
I slowly roll and seem to fly
The taste of salt and spinning ice
The taste of you it brings me higher

In this your shine
It's always time
It's always time
Oh we're only salt
Oh we're only salt
Oh we're only salt

It always felt like suicide
It always takes my life aside
To say I might, to say I will
The hardest part the heart is real

We miss your shine
It's only time
It's only time
It's only salt
It's only seas
It's only time
It's only time
I want to see myself in time
We miss your shine
It's only time
It's only time

Flying, show me how it feels
As dreams grow sinking clouds that must be real
Losing a touch of what is mine
It's proving tough as steel and dull as life

Ba-ba-ba-ba-balloon
Ba-ba-ba-ba-balloon
Ba-ba-ba-ba-balloon
Ba-ba-ba-ba

Gliding cuts you down and shakes your ground
I'm reeling from the height of silent sound
You know it always takes inside
As dreams go up the earth is lost in flight

Ba-ba-ba-ba-balloon
Ba-ba-ba-ba-balloon
Ba-ba-ba-ba-balloon
Ba-ba-ba-ba

Come down, come down, come down...
Come down, come down, come down...
Ba-ba-ba-ba
Ba-ba-ba-ba-balloon
Ba-ba-ba-ba-balloon
Ba-ba-ba-ba-balloon
Ba-ba-ba-ba-balloon
Ba-ba-ba-ba-balloon 

I wanna fire a gun - show me
I wanna be unseen - show me
A deep disguise
A deep disguise

Five years of nothing good
Still screaming
Shout this secrets out
Deep, distant and pure
Deep, distant and pure
Kill rhythm

Deep feelings, I'm keeping, still dreaming
Now, my secrets out
Deep, distant and pure

I wanna walk on air - show me
It's gonna feel so rare - show me
Don't wanna look suspicious or undone
But I really think this rhythm is the only one

Five years of nothing good
And still screaming
Shout, get this secret out
Deep, distant and pure

Deep feelings, I'm keeping, cold comfort,
Shout - this secrets out
Deep, distant and pure
Deep, distant and pure

I wanna fire the gun - show me
I wanna be unseen - show me
A deep disguise
To kill this guy

Finalize the rhythm
The rhythm

Deep feelings I'm seeking, kill rhythm
Shout this secrets out
Deep, distant and pure
Deep, distant and pure 

Oh my blue-eyed boy
Built something to destroy
Is it getting high?
High
Oh you cheeky face
Shirt open to the waist
Now it's really getting cold

One more paranoia, I don't want another
Oh yes I confess, I don't want another

Yes you handsome man
Wicked boy, you sycophant
Are you ready to feel?
Deep stress, nothing new
Anxiety to use
Coming through the door

One more paranoia, I don't want another
Oh yes I confess, I don't want another

Ah... Ah...
Taken many drugs, popped so many pills
Gasp at my adventures, marvel at my thrills
One more paranoia, I don't want another
Oh yes I confess, I don't want another
One more poison thought, don't want another
Yes, yes I confess, I don't want another 

Love my superstitious games
Running circles round my brain when I'm left smiling

I love to steal this living steam
My head in someone's dream
I'm tired of sleeping

Call me crank, my idea
Crank, so super
Crank, my conscience clear

I build my canopy of steel
It fulfills my sense of real
A chrome protection

Call me crank, my idea
Crank, so super
Crank, my conscience clear
It's clear

In this small partition, like a prison
Explode time bomb
If you know where I come from

You call me crank, my idea
Crank, so super
Crank, my conscience clear
Please call me crank, it's what I need
Crank, my mind in seed
Crank, my dream complete

Lay down, lay down, lay down 

Step inside my head
See how much I see
Feel how much I feel
Just this once I will...
Show you something good
A planet with no roof
The leading edge of truth
It's waiting up there

Broken head spilling air what an atmosphere
I really feel such a thrill
Broken mind come alive, imagination shines
I really feel such a thrill ooh ooh

A post euphoric grin
An astronaut I've been
Astronomic feelings
A face like luna - ah

Broken head spilling air what an atmosphere
I really feel such a thrill
Broken mind come alive my invention shines
I really feel such a thrill ooh ooh

Come into the big sleep
Donnez moi la grande surprise
Keep keep the vision clear
Come close and bring it near, it's the mother, the mother...

Broken head spilling air what an atmosphere
I really feel such a thrill
Broken mind come alive my invention shines
I really feel such a thrill ooh ooh
Ooh ooh
Aah aah 

Before the summer fell I already knew
She said I was more than dead
I already knew

Pain, here it comes again
Pain, I just can't take this anymore
Pain, here it comes again
Pain, a knife behind the eyes, a vicious size
Again

I miss my best friend, a growing fear
A lot to sacrifice
Or draw to an end

Pain, here it comes again
Pain, I just can't take this anymore
Pain, here it comes again
Pain, a knife behind the eyes, a vicious size
Again, again, again, again, again, again

Pain, here it comes again
Pain, I just can't take this anymore
Pain, here it comes again
Pain, a knife behind the eyes
A vicious, vicious, vicious pain
Pain, here it comes
Pain, here it comes
Pain, here it comes 

I've been inside this fruit when juices flow
But the taste is just a memory you hold
There is no real decay
No feeling of the skin
No juice

Strange fruit, strange fruit, strange fruit
It never lets that sun out
Strange fruit

This is sweet the soul the flesh I wish
It's the liquid that I miss
There is no real decay
The flesh is barely bruised
It's no use

Strange fruit, strange fruit
Sonic juice inside my head
This fever is so concentrated
Oh no what a shame...

Climb the tree and shake this passion down
But this fruit won't even kiss the ground
There is no real decay
The flesh is barely grazed
There's no way

Strange fruit, strange fruit, strange fruit 

Can't you accept this flower hasn't grown?
Kick away the petals and come home
This is all she said
But there's something in me cold within me
A beast inside me, bold inside me

I find myself in chains
I find myself in chains

But if I had some time
I'd use it this time
Fix myself I will, I hope it's this time
And if I could only see the subtle things you see
I'd think myself so brave in victory

Step inside everything, everything's all clear
Maybe I could find some inspiration here
Because it's time to fix this thing
It's time to fix this thing

But if I had some time
I hope it's this time
Escape to somewhere beautiful
Then maybe I could really see the subtle things you see
I'd consider it such rare and privileged company

No, no, no, no
But never again, never again, never again
I'm just too close to winning
And I find myself in chains
And it's time to fix this thing

'Cos if I had some time
I'd use it this time
Escape to something beautiful
'Cos underneath the steel and rust and oil and shit
There's chrome just shining chrome

A mirror finish of my own

Alive inside this chrome, home, home, home 

You're making me doubt myself
This feeling I know so well
Visions of naked greed
Are visions I just don't need

Far deep, phantom seeking, I can see
The nude that broke my heart
The nude that broke my heart
Far from living, I can see
The nude that broke my heart
The nude that broke my heart

The texture of moistened skin
All over this skin I've been
Skin that's been angel stretched
No muscle or excess flesh

Far deep, phantom seeking, I can see
The nude that broke my heart
The nude that broke my heart
Far from living, I can see
The nude that broke my heart
The nude that broke my heart

You're making me doubt myself
This feeling I know so well
Feeling of naked lust
This feeling I love so much

Far deep, phantom seeking oh you are
The nude that broke my heart
The nude that broke my heart
Phantom breathing oh you are
The nude that broke my heart
The nude that broke my heart

Upon the wall, the life is drawn
The love is lost, the truth will fall
The sinking ship, the sinking soul
The final fear
The picture on the wall 

There's no doubt
Of the future in my head
It's all worked out
I'd hate it to go left unsaid

I'd follow you through time
'Til it's not worth living
And if somewhere there's a sign
That I just don't know
Then I just won't show you

I'll make it easy
All the time
Shake it out
There's no doubt
of the purpose in my mind
It's all worked out
I'll make it easier to find

I'd follow you through time
'Til it's not worth living
And if somewhere there's a sign
That I just don't know
Then I just won't show you

I'll make it easy
All the time
Shake it out
It's no crime
From the middle
From the sides
Shake it out
Shake it out

Ahs
Ahs

Let's take a rocket ship to Mars
And anchor off the satellite for lonely hearts
Such a special place
In outer space... 

There's a shark shaped fin
In the water of my dreams
An alligator screams from the depths there
I'd swim with you there
I'd swim with you there, yeah yeah

In the house that I use
There's a psycho on the loose
He's playing with the fuse of a bomb there
I could live with you there
I could live with you there

Bye bye long day
I need to sleep so much
You shine on me
Too much is not enough

On the sheets and pillow case
In my bed for heaven's sake
The devil's dancing until late in my head there
But I could sleep with you there
I could sleep with you there

Always
Always

Bye bye long day I need to sleep so much
Nineteen hours straight
Too much is not enough
Too much is not enough
Too much is not enough
Too much is not enough

Too much is not enough
Undivide your love
Undivide your love 

So high it's hurting
So wide the line is drawn
I've gotta learn to stop myself from falling
Down so low

So don't die it's over
I've got a life, I've got a place to grow
I've gotta learn to stop myself from falling
Down so low

There's still time to grow
You know you know
It's so hard to think clearly

Clear
So clear
I've gotta learn to stop myself from falling
Down so low

There's no time to build
It's no horror film
It's so hard to think clearly

Ah
Ah
Ah
Ah - ooh

There's still time to grow
You know, you know
It's so hard to think clearly

Ah... Ah... Ah... Ah... Ah... 

Mary sticks her tongue out, it's a sign
Two fingers is a magical state
And she promised me she'd show me why
I don't think I can wait

Hey, hey, hey, hey, show me Mary
How does it go? Show me Mary
Show me Mary

This flower is a living cusp, but how it kills
Infectious beyond all that's fair
And if I succumbed while standing here
Would you really care?

How does it work? Show me Mary
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, show me Mary
Show me Mary

Mary took a dive when it suited her most
No surprise you are sucked you construct for yourself
Or are you really someone else?
Breezing through somebody's hell
Purifying as you go

No, no, no, no, show me Mary
Where have you been? Show me Mary
Show me Mary
Show me Mary
Show me Mary
Show me Mary
Show me Mary
Show me Mary 

I've been fed all my life
Had stories read to hypnotise
I bang my head against the wall

Deep inside my head I've found
Some signs of life a mushroom cloud

I teach I read the greed, Oh this is the mouth I feed
With love! With love! So don't be accusing me
I've got God inside my head
Got God inside my head

Bless my soul, one false hope take some wisdom there
This punk's no dope and I feel the need to share

Jesus in my memory
Just don't remind me
Don't remind me
Don't remind me

That I teach I reach the greed, Oh this is the mouth I feed
And I refuse to believe, there's a cynical bone in me
I've got God inside my head
God God inside my head
God God inside my head, my head, my head

If I don't wanna die
If I don't wanna die
I don't wanna die 

I breed deep in my a beautiful thing
And I need energy for my beautiful thing
But pain for days has stayed with me
Expect to see some change in me
From happy to frown

I'm on my way down
I'm on my way down
I'm on my way down
I'm on my way down

I know noisy noisy please this fool
So hear my plan and understand why I feel so cruel
Take this huge expanse of sound
And wrap it in these rags I found
And in true style

I'm on my way down

Oh this is worth the cost she said
This is worth every penny she said
And I think I can see through everything
This is how I feel This is how I feel This is how I feel

I'm on my way down
I'm on my way down 

Drove to my lover, tried to discover
If she was my friend right to the end
Don't know what caused her to pretend
So I wrote a long letter on one inch of paper
Sprinkled with tears and surrounded by love
I'm gonna lick the page now with my tongue

Little muscle, little muscle
Wriggle wriggle lips of lizards
Like a lizard little muscle wriggling
My aching tongue
My aching tongue
My aching tongue
Little muscle, little muscle

Little muscle, little muscle
Oh boy, Oh boy you're so much trouble
A wedge a wedge a wedge a wedge
Between my lips

Little muscle, little muscle
Wriggle wriggle lips of lizards
Like a lizard what have you done?
My aching tongue
My aching tongue my aching tongue
Little muscle, little muscle 

It's how high you are and the time it takes to heal
It's how high you are and the time it takes to heal

I can climb a tree and push up through the leaves 'cos
Only when I try am I happier to see
My head's in some kind of space where boyhood used to be
It's how high you are and the time it takes to heal

But it's all a lie and I've never felt so sad
There's a streak of melancholy running down my back
And there's a great mistrust that borders round the man
I call it strange from a boy who never left his head
It's how high you are and the time it takes to heal

And everyone needs someone to live by
Everyone needs someone to live by

But it's all a lie, it's a lie to make you beg
For something more for something better than you've had
And I wish I knew
I wish I knew how to change
'Cos everyone needs someone to live by
Everyone needs someone
Everyone needs someone to live by
Everyone needs someone
Everyone needs someone
It's how high you are and the time it takes to heal 

Of all the things a popular song can bring
A permanent picture of hope is what I hate the most
But now I'm happy when I'm told to discover
There is no other

Just this is beautiful
This is beautiful
It's oh so fanciful
Empty head feels good
Empty head feels good, yeah

Just don't be too surprised if this permanent paradise
Explodes some day in a permanent picture of pain
Empty head feels good
Empty head feels good
Empty head feels good, yeah

But a permanent picture of love...(no there's a thing)
You feel you sing for something real
I can tell you it's no deal so don't bother

Whenever the fools surround me
It's never enough to tell me
This is beautiful
This is beautiful
It's oh so fanciful
Empty head feels good
Empty head feels good
Empty head feels good, yeah 

Shiny silver Jubilee
When I destroy what I receive
it's good to see you smiling
And the lack of sympathy
it's good to know the reason
The reasons

I destroy myself
I know I know I know
I deny myself
I know I know I know
I destroy myself
I know I know I know
I want to receive

What's the reason, what's the use
When I don't want to look like you
It's good to sea you smiling
and the lack of sympathy
It's one of many reasons
Reasons

I destroy myself
I know I know I know
I deny myself
I know I know I know
I destroy myself
I know I know I know
Easy to believe

Grow my hair
Long and strange
I'll be a walking mountain range

It's good to see you smiling
And the lack of sympathy

'Cos now I know the reasons
The reasons
I destroy myself... 

There is an attitude I'm guilty of
Kept deeper, deeper, deeper
I only let it out when people piss me off
It's funny funny funny

I can be, I can be what you want me to be
I can be, I can be what you want me to be
I can be, I can be what you want me to be
My My My exhibition

I'm such a nice boy, such a charming man
But I'm going crazy with these snakes and stuff
I charm the pants of anyone I can
But this time I'm gonna...

My exhibition
A real condition
Yoga position
my exhibition
You're pissing me off, your pissing me off
Deeper and deeper and deeper and deeper

I can be, I can be what you want me to be
It's my exhibition
Stop you're pissing me off
Stop you're pissing me off
Stop you're pissing me off 

I think I have the best of me
Inside my head
No one else competes with me
I think I'm great
Got spirit tucked away inside

I know the ghosts of angel notes to kiss
Everything I sing is part of this
Got honey brushed across my lips

I know, I know, I know, I know

If you can call this luck
If you can call this luck
If you can miss this much

Eat my dust you insensitive fuck
Eat my dust you insensitive fuck
Eat my dust 

Old style in it seems they've brought you everything
There's an old style in of days when we were all thirteen
Yeah these pictures of love are a testament to the memories

When I think of you it's shocking
Oooh it's shocking
Oooh

Now it's "Oh my god this time he crushed some aspirin"
Dissolved in love he always made the best of it!
Yeah he spilled it all to The Sun months before punk had
Taken off
He had the pictures to prove
What a soaraway dude is guilty of

When I think of you it's shocking
Oooh it's shocking Oooh it's shocking

But won't you listen to me, why can't you believe
That you're breaking my heart
And these moments were part of our lives
And it destroys me to see you destroy them
Every time

When I think of you it's shocking
Oooh it's shocking Oooh it's shocking

So you wanna know what's my crime?
Love, I'm guilty every time
Love, this love, I'm guilty every time
Love, this love, I'm guilty every time
Love this love, Love this love
It's shocking 

Don't feel sad don't feel blue
It's supposed to be
All I feel comes back off you
And I'm so happy

'Cos I feel I'm at 45 degrees
That's when love tips up for me
And keep it understood the elevations good
And love tips up for me

Please let me kiss your peculiar lips
For some sympathy
Though I've always maintained
That you've always been stranger than me
Is that the way it's meant to be?

I'm at 45 degrees
And that's when love tips up for me
