1. BE ABOVE IT

Gotta be above it (répété)

And I know that I gotta be above it now
And I know that I can't let them bring me down
And I gotta fight my time as a face in the crowd
And I know that I gotta be above it now

And I know that I gotta be above it now

And I gotta bide my time as a face in the crowd
And I know that I gotta be above it now
And I cannot let them all just bring me down

This time I'm just gonna take it all
I'm never gonna shake it up
I'll just close my eyes and make so that all these things don't affect me now
I know that I gotta be above it now

And I cannot let them all just bring me down

This time I'm just gonna take or I'm never gonna shake it
I'll just close my eyes and make so that all these things don't affect me now

Gotta be above it...


2. ENDORS TOI

Soothing repeat,
I look down at my feet,
It's a hypnotist's arm,
And it works like a charm.
But I won't be deprived,
Real worlds, surreal life,
Do or die,
There is time,
Go to sleep,
You'll be fine.

In the morning you'll find,
Real life was such a grind.
Off I go, day is done
Where a new one's just begun.


3. APOCALYPSE DREAM

This could be the day that we push through,
It could be the day that all our dreams come true,
For me and you,
'Til we're at the end of just another day

Are you too terrified to try your best?
Just to end up with an educated guess,
Like success,
Like those times you wake up mystified

Oh it feels so real in my sleep
Never felt so good, so close I do with you
Until the day this could be feeling
Do you realize that I could feel it.

Everything is changing,
And there's nothing I can do
My world is turning pages
While I am just sitting here

Well, am I getting closer?
Will I ever get there?
Does it even matter?
Do I really need it?
Wish that I'd remember
And I'm on the outcome

(This could be the day that we push through)
Did I really want it?
Does it really matter?
It was only yesterday...
(It could be the day that all our dreams come true)
Didn't even know you...
Now I'm gonna miss you
(Oh it feels so real in my sleep, never felt so good, so close I do)

Nothing ever changes
No matter how long you do your game
It's the same to everyone else
Everything is changing
I guess I should want my love
But she'd just be excited.


4. MIND MISCHIEF

Feels like my life is ready to blow
Me and my love we'll take it slow
I hope she knows that I'll love her long
I just don't know where the hell I belong
How optimism led me astray
Two hundred things I took the wrong way
But I saw her love gauge running low
I tried to fill but it overflowed
Feels like my life is ready to blow
Me and my love we'll take it slow
I hope she knows that I'll love her long
I just don't know where the hell I belong, oh no

She remembers my name, could be blown way out
It's all going to change, she remembers my name

But she was only messing around
Please, no more playing with my heart
Ooh, go with Mr. Right just for once!
(Then it all just came out,
Guess I'll hold it in next time...)
Ooh, no more mischief with my mind

No more getting it wrong, I'll be frozen here on
If forever we'll see, but no more guessing for me

Oh, I was just so sure of everything
Oh, that's what you get for dreaming aloud
Oh, the day that words are clearer to me


5. MUSIC TO WALK HOME BY

But that's only when I think of you,
Some vision that I hold on to,
You know it's everything I do,
You know it's everything I do.

Can almost stand competing with the others
Can almost hear the fun that I should be having.
Instead of all this dreaming...

But it's only when I think of you,
The mover I could turn into,
There must be something I can do,
There must be something I can do.
But I just don't know
How to feel right,
A beautiful girl
Is wasting my life,
I'm playing a part
As somebody else,
While trying so hard
To be myself.
I just need to hear
Somebody say,
That this will make sense one day.
I guess I'm alright
But they're all doing so well,
What I would give
To be under that spell...

You'll know soon.

In so many ways
I'm somebody else
I'm trying so hard
To be myself.
I just need to hear
Somebody say
That this will all make
Sense one day.

Well it's getting late
I'd better go
I made it this far
As far as I know.


6. WHY WON'T THEY TALK TO ME

Out of the zone
Trying to see
I'm so alone
Nothing for me
I guess I'll go home
Try to be sane
Try to pretend
None of it happened
Oh this old tree
Lonely old me
Whoops-a-daisy
I thought I was happy.

Out of the zone
Now that I see
I don't need them
And they don't need me
I guess I'll go home
Try to be sane
Try to pretend
None of it happened
Destined to be
Lonely old me
Whoops-a-daisy
I thought I was happy.

Aaaaaah Why won't they talk to me?
Why won't they talk to me?
Why won't they talk to me?
Why won't they talk to me?

But I don't even care about it anyway.
I wouldn't listen to a word any of them say.
They just talk about themselves all day.
One day Ill be a star and they'll be sorry.


7. FEELS LIKE WE ONLY GO BACKWARDS

It feels like I only go backwards, baby
Every part of me says go ahead
I got my hopes up again, oh no, not again
Feels like we only go backwards, darling.

I know that you think you sound silly when you call my name
But I hear it inside my head all day
When I realize I'm just holding on to the hope that maybe Your feelings don't show

It feels like I only go backwards, baby
Every part of me says go ahead
Then I got my hopes up again, oh no, not again
Feels like we only go backwards darling.

The seed of all this indecision isn't me, oh no
Cause I decided long ago.
But that's the way it seems to go when trying,
So hard to to get to something real, it feels

It feels like I only go backwards, darling
Every part of me says go ahead
I got my hopes up again, oh no, not again
Feels like we only go backwards, darling
It feels like I only go backwards, baby
Every part of me says go ahead
But I got my hopes up again, oh no, not again
Feels like we only go backwards darling
It feels like I only go backwards, baby
Every part of me says go ahead
But I got my hopes up again, oh no, not again
Feels like we only go backwards darling.


8. KEEP ON LYING

All I give are little clues
Maybe one day I'll get through
There is nothing I can do
I just keep on lying to you

I only need to say it's true
Already knew
But there is nothing you can do
I just keep on lying to you,

Should my cover ever blow
Would you ever let it go
There is something you should know
But hell if I'd ever let it show
So here I am trying to be strong
It was noon and my shadow's long
I guess I'll go a day just as soon as I get to the end of this song,
To the end of this song,
To the end of this song,
To the end of this song,
To the end of this song

You won't be alone
Take all you can
Please understand
That it never really was love

All I give are little clues
Maybe one day I'll get through
There is nothing they could do
I just keep on lying to you


9. ELEPHANT

Well, he feels like an elephant
Shaking his big grey trunk for the hell of it
He knows that you're dreaming about being over him

Too bad your chances are slim

And it's not like mister shook to get shy when they ask him who is under
There must be something deep down in the middle down there

He's not too easily scared

He's got friends but they have fear
Who don't care too much if he just disappeared
Oh, look there he is now coming down the stairs

Here it comes

He pulled the mirrors off his Cadillac
'Cause he doesn't like it looking like he looks back
He talks like his opinion is a simple fact

Somebody grabbed his collar
He cried the whole way home
He won't remember a thing 'til they start again

That's how it is 'til the end
Yeah


10. SHE JUST WON'T BELIEVE ME

But she just won't believe me
She just won't believe me
I never meant to see him
But she just won't believe me


11. NOTHING THAT HAS HAPPENED SO FAR HAS BEEN ANYTHING WE COULD CONTROL

Nothing that has happened so far has
Been anything we could control.
I have just been waiting for the perfect
Time to tell you I don't know.
Maybe I'm just reading into it a
Little deeper than I should.
We would make it easy we would take
It slowly if only we could.

Elodie,
Look at me,
Unless you're trying to hurt me
Heavy blow,
Down I go
Now I just want to let go.

Is it right?
Is it wrong?
I don't know,
It's not the cause I'm fighting for
Anymore
But it sucks to keep on running.

Eventually,
There will be
A time for clearer thinking
For now I weep
Can't get to sleep
I try to hold a good feeling.
I just get one,
Here it comes,
There it goes,
And we just might,
Lose the fight, yeah
But it's alright
It wasn't our decision.

Nothing that has happened so far
Has been anything we could control.
I have just been waiting for the perfect time to tell you that I know
Every man is happy until
Happiness is suddenly a goal.
I'll just be here waiting till the
Doctor calls and then I'll let you know.


12. SUN'S COMING UP

All those things I ever thought
Would never end,
To think they're now all memories,
Sends me round the bend

To watch her airplane swaying,
Coming in to land,
There my world is hanging
In someone else's hands

And if I have done something,
And you have to let me go
Think of me as someone,
Someone that you know

But if I don't hear something,
Pretty soon from now,
I'll disconnect completely,
See how that works out

I wasn't daring,
Not much a chancer
Oh my darling,
Why won't you answer?

Seven a.m.,
Midnight in Dover
Sun's coming up now,
I guess it's over

Playing his guitar
While he's dying of cancer
Oh my father,
Why won't you answer?

Seven a.m.,
Midnight in Dover
Sun's coming up now,
I guess it's over
