The Horrors : Primary Colours
歌词
1. MIRROR’S IMAGE
Is it the way
is it the way she looks at you
Seeing her face
As you walk through the crowded avenue
That sets you afire
Remembering all you left behind
Don't fall back in line
Better you let her memory die
Draw strength
Walk on into the night
Better you try to pass her by
Walk on into the night
Is it too late
Are you forever in a state
A crippling sinus
Whenever you see her walking by
Draw strength
Walk on into the night
Better you try to pass her by
Walk on into the night
How is her life on the paradise
Walk on into the night
And in good time you'll pass her by
Walk on into the night
Walk on into the night
Walk on into the night
2. THREE DECADES
Three decades in Canada and now you plan
To leave your home and lead a life more valiant
Feather white, she occupies the virgin berth
Climb to her as there were no barriers
Don't give up, stand tall, this is your hour
Full of joy, the boy within must try
Forget your regrets
Cavernous imagery grips your mind
Don't let your fear dictate your life
Forget your regrets
Don't lose your purpose, this is your hour
Feather white, before your hand she lies
Don't give up, stand tall, this is your hour
Full of joy, the boy within must try
3. WHO CAN SAY
I never meant for you to get hurt
And how I try, oh how I try
I could never give you just what you deserve
Another man would surely learn
I know these words may only serve to twist the knife
but I'll strive to make them heard
Maybe it's better now I've gone away
Maybe it's not, oh who can say
And though it's hard for me to say
I know you're better off this way
And when I told her I didn't love her anymore
She cried
And when I told her kisses were not like before
She cried
And when I told her another girl had caught my eye
She cried
And then I kissed her with a kiss
That could only mean goodbye
And though it's hard for me to say
Maybe you're better off this way
And though it's hard for me to say
I know you're better off this way
Get away
Get away
4. DO YOU REMEMBER
Say to her, say to her
Can you remember the first time we met
Don't you remember the first caress
Waiting there, waiting there
Standing alone on the corner in the night
Can you remember the first time
But if you wait
But if you wait
I will open to you
I will be with you
And if you wait
And if you wait
I will cross the ocean
I will be with you soon
Say to her, say to her
Can you remember the night that you left
Scanning the crowd out in the square
But if you wait
But if you wait
I will take your hand
And you'll understand
And if you wait
And if you wait
I will be with you soon
I'll cross the ocean blue
Do you remember
Do you remember
And if you wait
And if you wait
I will come by night
And I'll be by your side
And if you wait
And if you wait
If you don't remember
You will remember soon
5. NEW ICE AGE
The agony and the harm is critical
Through a frosted stopwatch
Time is ticking
Tick tick tick tick dead
A new ice age
Closer day by day
Will freeze
When ice wings are swooping down
There'll never be a new ice age like this one
How we need it now
Ice will make a thousand sculptures
And ice will spit them out
Ice hits the medicine counter
Ice knock the sniper down
Ice spoils the cocoa powder
Ascends to the frozen crown
C-c-c
The saturation
The agony
There'll never be a new ice age like this one
Minds on the sleeper train
Ice will make a thousand sculptures
And ice will spit them out.
Ice-spit-out
Ice-spit-out
Ice shocks a sleeping system
Ice hits the dead-beat bar
Ice hits the faceless enemies
Ice strikes the cowering clowns
C-c-c-c
A new ice age
The coldest days
Will come
Welcome to the ice age
There'll never be a new ice age like this one
How we need it now
Ice will make a swooping kill
And ice will spit it out.
6. SCARLET FIELDS
As the summer fades away
You'll lead me to the garden
Passing the lovers
Swooning in the autumn
See yourself
Your image in the eyes of someone else
See yourself
Your fears as they appear to someone else
When the sun sets
On dark silhouettes
Collapse into dream
Collapse into dream
Collapse into dream
As summer fades away
Laugh at my reflection
Passed to a lover
Seeking your affection
See yourself
Your image in the eyes of someone else
See yourself
Your fears as they appear to someone else
When the sun sets
On dark silhouettes
Collapse into dream
Collapse into dream
Collapse into dream
Though I know
You won't be here for long
Though I know
You won't be here for long
Though I know
You won't be here for long
Though I know
You won't be here for long
Though I know
You won't be here for long
Though I know
You won't be here for long
Though I know
You won't be here for long
7. I ONLY THINK OF YOU
It's so lonely coming down
It's a long, long wait around
It's a hollow, hollow day
It's a long, long, long, long way, way down
Fair and feather white
Lying in false paradise
I found you on your side
Weighed down
Don't go
Cause you know I will follow
You know
If I lose you I'll go mad
It's so lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lonely coming down
It's so lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lonely coming down
As the flames wash around me
I only think of you
I only want to save you
But I've done all I can do
To the end I would defend you
In heaven I'd suspend you
I only want to save you
I only want the truth
It's so lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lonely coming down
It's so lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lonely coming down
Don't ask
Cause you knew this could never last
You were always going too fast
You were always going too fast
It's so lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lonely coming down
It's so lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lonely coming down
To the death I would defend you
With my life I will protect you
I know I'm gonna save you
I'll do all I can do
Alone I'll beat the flames down
I will defend your name
I'll descend through the fire
I will carry you home
I will carry you home
I will carry you home
I will carry you home
8. I CAN’T CONTROL MYSELF
Across the pathless sands
Through jungle, blind I run
No guide taken in hand
And no idea where to turn
No sanctuary found
I tear myself in two
I pray for scarlet fields to save me
Whole and white and pure
I can't control myself
Lend one of your hands 'cause I
I can't control myself
I dream of lost desires
Fingers run through fur
I drive myself insane
The rain cascades onto the dirt
And in the throes of love
Where the shadows burst in flames
I cast myself abandoned
With a cry I call your name
I can't control myself
I try and I try but I
I can't control myself
I can't control myself
Lend one of your hands 'cause I
I can't control myself
Or hold myself in though I try
I can't control myself
Deliver me from the fire
I can't control myself
9. PRYMARY COLOURS
Praise him for his character has no defects
A shining example, and one to rely on,
The newest messiah rolled into one
Cover his shoulders in primary colors
In primary colors
But as he falls asleep
The colored lights will keep
Unwanted vigil over
Where he is
He doesn't know where he is
Demands of a million, now everyone needs him
Sycophants send him to the edge of reason
Everyone knows him, he knows himself better
Haunted by alpha, he fears that they'll leave him
In primary colors
Our pack leader will confront his fears
Through new kings are born, he'll stay on his throne
Riding through town on a chariot high
Glory adorned and immortalized in primary colors
In primary colors
10. SEA WITHIN A SEA
Sea Within a Sea
Some say we walk alone
Barefoot on wicked stone no light
And sanctuary found never waits around awhile
Marching to the sea
Their dreams stay in the shadows
Their dreams stay firmly rooted in the shallows
See the scraping sky
See my destination there tonight
So say I walk alone barefoot
On wicked stone tonight
Will you leap to follow
Will you turn and go
Will your dreams stay rooted in the shallows
See the scraping sky
Far beyond the shallows
Far beyond the reaches of the shadows
Though youth may fade with boyhood´s cares
New fear will catch us unawares
I know it will
So you might say
The path we share is one of danger
And of fear
Until the end
