1. THREE FLIGHTS UP

(Instrumental au piano)


2. LIGHTS AND SOUNDS

Hello you how was the rest
You made it through but nevertheless
I got you out on a wire
You be love and i be a liar
Tell it and fill up the air
But make it loud cause
Nobody's there..nobody's there..nobody's there

Stop turn take a look around
At all the lights and sounds
Let them bring you in
Slow burn let it all fade out
Pull the curtain down
And wonder where you've been

Make it new but stay in the lines
Just let go but keep it inside
Smile big for everyone
Even when you know what they've done
They give you the end but no where to start
Not how to built how to tear it apart
So tell it all and fill up the air
But make it loud cause nobody's there
Nobody' there

Stop turn take a look around
At all the lights and sounds
Let them bring you in
Slow burn let it all fade out
Pull the curtains down
And wonder where you've been

I've got a way to work this out
I've got a way and you know how

Stop turn take a look around
At all the lights and sounds
Let them bring you in
Slow burn let it all fade out
Pull the curtains down
And wonder where you've been

You've earned everything you've found
Painted faces frown
I'll say I knew you when ...


3. DOWN ON MY HEAD

I work all night
For one more day that i can say I'm all alone
Alone
I just need time
And I will say what I believe and I'll come home
Home
And all I know

I never thought I would wake up in bed
Watching the world coming down on my head
I'd sleep like a dog if you would never of said
This is the world coming down on your head

As life flies by
I'm not sure how I'm gonna do this all again
Again
So line by line
I write this down and I'm just trying to find the end
The end
And all I know

I never thought I would wake up in bed
Watching the world coming down on my head
I'd sleep like a dog if you would never of said
This is the world coming down on your head
You gave it to me I remember it read
You've got the world coming down on your head
There's nothing to fight for it's already dead
And this is the world coming down on my head

When will it all end
One of you move the others follow you

I never thought I would wake up in bed
Watching the world coming down on my head
I'd sleep like a dog if you would never of said
This is the world coming down on your head
I'm not gonna swallow the lie that I'm fed
Cuz I want the world coming down on my head
You're just gonna find out you're already dead
And I was the world coming down on your head


4. SURE THING FALLING

He likes vam pires and hit list radio
But turns it off when he hears
This one song he knows
And you breathe the windows down
You're driving 1-4 as you make your way back home
You ride in silence because he will not let go
And you breathe the windowns down
It's a new place that you have found

I've been up late writing books
All about heroes and crooks
One of them saves you from this
The other one steals you and then
Sure things fall
And all sure things fall

Do you remember how we use to get so high
It didn't work at first
We tried it two more times
And we breathe the windows down
I was thinking of the temperature outside
Cool like the water
That was running from our eyes
And we breathe the wondows down
It's a new place that we had found

I've been up late writing books
All about hearoes and crooks
One of them saves you from this
The other one steals you and then
Sure things fall
And all sure things fall

He can take you all the way to church this time
But don't forget you summed it up in fifteen lines

I've been up late writing books
All about heroes and crooks
One of them saves you from this
The other one steals you

Of all the palces I looked
And all of the pictures I took
One of them's here with me now
I'm finaly finding out how … sure things fall
All sure things fall


5. CITY OF DEVILS

Man once sang to me
Look at you saving the world on your own
And I wonder how things gonna be
Cause the time here it passes so slow

In a city of devils we live
A city of devils we live

Find somebody to learn
Boy you gotta love someone more than yourself
And I can feel the fire of a city lights burn
And it's hard to find angels in hell

Flyin' along and I
Feel like I don't belong and I
Can't tell right from the wrong and why
Have I been here so long

In a city of devils we live
A city of devils we live

Questions I can't seem to find
To the answers I already have
And you can't see the sky here at night
So I guess I can't make my way back

Flyin' along and I
Feel like I don't belong and I
Can't tell right from the wrong and why
Have I been here so long

What if I wanted you here right now
Would you fall in the fire burn me down
If I wanted you here right now
Would you fall in the fire burn me down
What if i wanted you here right now

In a city of devils we live
A city of devils we live

Flyin' along and I
Feel like I don't belong and I
Can't tell right from the wrong and why
Have I been here so long
I don't belong
Don't belong
I've been here too long
Too long ...


6. ROUGH LANDING HOLY

Left the ground in black and white
And when the plane went down
The colors all around
I know by now, the margin's slight
And still I can't get out
She's all I think about
Can't let her go
It's who you know

We came down to watch the world walk by
And all she find was trouble in my eyes
From the sky she pulled me down tonight
Let her go

She moves fast takes control
And like a heart attack I know I can't turn back
And time just passed, nights moved slow
And she was all I had
The thoughts I'd never last
Can't let her go
It's who you know

We came down to watch the world walk by
And all she find was trouble in my eyes
From the sky she pulled me down tonight
Let her go

We came down to watch the world walk by
And all she find was trouble in my eyes
From the sky she pulled me down tonight
She calls out the farther that I fly
I love that song so give me one moe line
Frome the sky she pulles me down tonight
Let her go


7. TWO WEEKS FROM TWENTY

Jimmy wasn't really popular
He had a couple of friends back home
Sooner or later they're all getting out
So he had to join up alone
He was dreaming of the Ivy League
Since he was only 3 feet tall
Get the hell out of Jersey and then
He would never look back at all

And then you hear'em say
That miles away
We lost another one that we sent with a gun
They're gonna miss him he was two weeks from twenty
And there's still no shame
From the man to blame

Jimmy never had a reason to stay
Cause all the factories shut down
All he had was a line for his name
So he could sign away his right to be proud
He tried to kiss her on the way out the door
But she just put her little hand on his face
I don't understand why you're leaving she said
But I hope you're gonna ask me to wait

And then you hear'em say
That miles away
We lost another one that we sent with a gun
His lady missed him he was two weeks from twenty
And there's still no shame
From the man to blame

Jimmy's mother enter went to Capitol Hill
So she could fill her heart up with joy
Maybe shake a few hands while she's there
And tell him thank you sir for taking my boy

And then you hear'em say
That miles away
We lost another one that we sent with a gun
His mama missed him he was two weeks from twenty
And there's still no shame
And we're all to blame


8. WAITING GAME

You and me
A little different though we tried to stay the same
It never leaves
And when it changes it is still a waiting game

I wait for a lonely breathe
I wait to surface from this depth
Wait for the light to come and take away
These images I kept
In my head

More than ever
I need to feel you
More than ever
I see the real you

You are me
A worse disaster would be waking up alone
Now we're free
We're drifting out like all the ones we didn't know

I wait for a silence here
I wait for things to disapear
Wait for the ground to stop
Moving underneath my only fear
If I loose you I don't know

More than ever
I need to feel you it's all around
More than ever
I see the real you and it surrounds

Everything, everything we have had
Out of sign out of mind given that
What I see when I dream hurts like hell and back
Everything, everything we have had
Out of sign out of mind given that
What I see when I dream hurts like hell and back

More than ever
I need to feel you it's all around
More than ever
I see the real you and it surrounds

More than ever
I need to feel you it's all around
More than ever
I see the real you and it surrounds


9. MARTIN SHEEN OR JFK

Here it is one more glass for these broken hands
Goes down for you
I've fallen in I sink then swallow I never meant
To see this trough

I'm taking them all taking them all back for good
To a place where I know that I'm safe
Then I could fall then I could fall where I should
In this bottle with all my mistakes

All the days since I've landed I lost the way
To find my truth
You float away and leave me stranded
What's left to say
I'll hurt for you

I'm taking them all taking them all back for good
To a place where I know that I'm safe
Then I could fall then I could fall where I should
In this bottle with all my mistakes

I could sleep but when I wake here
You'd still be gone
And you're my air
I could breathe if you would stay here for another song
So I could stare

I could see you but when I wake here
You'd still be gone
And you're my air
I could breathe if you would stay here another song
Then I could stare

I'm taking them all taking them all back for good
To a place where I know that I'm safe
Then I could fall then I could fall where I should
In this bottle with all my mistakes

I'm taking them all taking them all back for good
To a place where I know that I'm safe
Then I could fall then I could fall where I should
In this bottle with all my mistakes


10. SPACE TRAVEL

I heard a voice last night
It said wake up and open your eyes
Wake up walk out tonight
Because she don't care if you're dead or alive
Dead or alive

She moves like beams of light
Straight through this universe in my head
Where I get peace of mind
I'm free from the stupid things that I said
She's all in my head

Did I get lost while I was gone
A traveled space for much too long
But there's a planet I have found
And you are far away

Somewhere behind her eyes
Some supernatural energy
Takes me for quite the ride
Across time wjere I defy gravity
This energy

Did I get lost while I was gone
A traveled space for much too long
But there's a planet I have found
And you are far away for now

Did I get lost while I was gone
A traveled space for much too ...
Did I get lost while I was gone
A traveled space for much too long
But there's a planet I have found
And you are far away
Far away for now


11. GREY

Grey skies clouding up the things
We use to see with wide eyes
Maybe everything was meant to be this way
Will it ever change
Or are we stuck here on our own

It's all gone grey

I found telling you the truth is the hardest thing to get out
I know it wasn't you that made me feel this way
Will it ever change
Or are we stuck here on our own

Given one more try
I don't know if I would stay
I feel so much better now
Baby begging me
Will leave you so empty inside
So you shouldn't even try

I know every last regret inside of me is my own
The way I hold them close has made me be this way
And I will never change
I know I'm stuck here on my own

Given one more try
I don't know if I would stay
I feel so much better now
Where did we go wrong
I know you still hold on to me
But it's time that you let go
I gave you things I had
That I cannot get back again
But I'm better off alone

It's all gone grey

Grey skies clouding up the things
We use to see
With wide eyes maybe everything
Was meant to be


12. WORDS, HANDS, HEARTS

The whole world was sleeping and I was there
You could just sense this feeling in the air
Like no one's words were good enough
To define what we fear
And no one's words were strong enough
To fix what happended here

Lead on to save me lead us all there
Find me some answers one nation beware
Can't tell the difference between myth and man
Or what's necessary of where I should stand

The whole world is different now men have died
You can just sense this feeling in our eyes
Like no one's hands are big enough
To hold on to this fear
And no one's hands are strong enough
To fix what happened here

Lead on to save me lead us all there
Find me some answers one nation beware
Can't tell the difference between myth and man
Or what's necessary of where I should stand

So do we dare now
Raise our voices loud
We're searching for something that cannont be found
I hear open mouths
And I see open hands
But the blinded and silent I can't understand

The whole world is watching with one blank stare
I can just sense this feeling of ill repair
Like no one's heart is full enough
To keep away this fear
And no one's heart is strong enough
To fix what happened here

Lead on to save me lead us all there
Find me some answers it's time that you shared
Can't tell the difference between myth and man
Or what's necessary of where I should stand

So do we dare now
Raise our voices loud
We're searching for something that cannont be found
I hear open mouths
And I see open hands
But the blinded and silent I can't understand


13. HOW I GO

I could tell you the wildest if tales
My friend thee giant and traveling sales
Tell you all the times that I failed
Years are behind me the stories exhaled

And I'm drying out
Crying out
This isn't how I go

I could tell you of a man not so tall
Who said life's a circus and so we are small
Tell you of a girl that I saw
I froze the moment and she changed it all

And I'm drying out
Crying out
This isn't how I go
Hurry now
Lay me down
And I let these waters flow
Flow

Son I am not everything
You thought that I would be
But every story I have told
Is part of me

And you kept the air in my lungs
Floating along as the melody comes
And my heart beats like timpani drums
Keeping the time while a symphony strums

And I'm drying out
Crying out
This isn't how I go
Hurry now
Lay me down
And let these waters flow
Flow
Let it flow

Son I am not everything
You thought that I would be
But every story I have told
Is part of me
Son I leave you now but you have so much more to do
And every story I have told is part of you


14. HOLLY WOOD DIED

Accidents out on the highway to somewhere
They telll us about when we're young
Rescuers working to clean up the crashes
Before she knows what they've done
Nobody told her she'd lose in the first round
The last fight was fixed from the start
Names on her sidewalks they move through her body
Like razors they cut through her heart
Like razors they cut through her heart

Hey let go of all you know
You're flying away now
What have you got to lose
And say out loud these word's I've found
I'll be there when you come down
I'll be waiting for you

Night life the high life she just wants a good life
So someone remembers her too
But somewhere she heard there was some place to go
When you die when you live like we do
Die when you live like we do

Hey let go of all you know
You're flying away now
What have you got to lose
And say out loud these word's I've found
I'll be there when you come down
I'll be waiting for you

Hey let go of all you know
You're flying away now
What have you got to lose
And say out loud these word's I've found
I'll be there when you come down
I'll be waiting for you
