Silverchair : Diorama
Lyrics
1. ACROSS THE NIGHT
Across the nigh
It was the moon that stole my slumbe
Across the nigh
I fell in love with people sleepin
And hugged a man's arthritic shoulde
I fell tired, asleep in a golden ocea
Your eyes perspired, a spike in my fascinatio
I don't mean to make you cr
But this feeling will run right through the nigh
And I'll only make you cry with these feeling
Sleepless, untamed without a leash on the light around m
So let us be married and have another bab
Coz I don't wanna be lonely I just wanna be alon
Yes let's just get married shouting baby, baby, babie
"You'll never sleep at all
But I don't wanna be lonel
Never seen the sunshin
From higher points than sunris
2. THE GREATEST VIEW
You're the analys
The fungus in my mil
When you want no on
And you got someon
Through the win
You craw
And laugh at burning dune
When no one else wil
Ever se
Now that you know why you feel like you d
They're turning their head whilst they wai
For no on
And finally I know why you feel like letting g
I'm watching you watc
Over me and I've go
The greatest view from her
I'm watching you watc
Over me and I've go
The greatest view from her
Mistakes don't mean a thin
If you don't regret the
So pack your tactic toes for the winte
Chain a waterfall to burned and withered ski
No-one else will ever se
I'm watching you watc
Over me and I've go
The greatest view from her
I'm watching you watc
Over me and I've go
The greatest view from her
Now that you know why you feel like you d
They're turning their head whilst they wai
For no on
And finally I know why I feel like you're letting g
I'm watching you watc
Over me and I've go
The greatest view from her
I'm watching you watc
Over me and I've go
The greatest view from her
The greatest view from her
The greatest vie
3. WITHOUT YOU
Miles away
There's hopeless smiles brighter than mine
And I need for you to come and go
Without the truth falling out
Old incisions refusing to stay
Like sun through the trees on a cloudy day
Telephone
Socially scared and impaired
If the trees will bloom the wind can blow
Without the fruit falling out
Feels like the wind blows
Holding you with us
She takes no other
Falls light and ashes
Blooming like winter
Refrain :
You brighten my life like a polystyrene hat
But it melts in the sun like a life without love
And I've waited for you so i'll keep crying out
Without you
4. WORLD UPON YOUR SHOULDERS
All the bridges in the worl
Won't save yo
If there is no other sid
To cross t
When you're world's not feeling ugl
And the world's not too muc
Take the world upon your shoulder
And burn, burn, burn, burn, bur
Half full glasse
Lost in empty house
Violent, big and violen
Like a thing that's big, bi
And violen
5. ONE WAY MULE
Let my spirit ride on a one way mul
Blistered skin in a cold hearted poo
Distant emotion hides a concrete wal
Naked and anchored I'll climb right bac
To yo
Love me for my mind, coz I'm a dangerous hear
When I've got time to kill I'm coming back for yo
I'll stake out just to fin
The knife in a dangerous hear
When I've got time to kill I'm coming back for yo
Distant memories in a cage by my be
Viscid dreams stick to holes in my hea
But a patient career of sleep in a Sunday dres
Rides my wak
6. TUNA IN THE BRINE
I fondle keys to my heart when everyone's hear
Seems so cal
And you found the loc
To my dorm and opened the door to my trus
Fund my vestr
The light in my darkest hour is fea
Denies me of anything good so
Don't lose your heart you'll need i
You'll have to take another pill and tell another li
And lie amongst your lies like tuna in the brin
Take everything that you're not and don't be s
Scared to tamper (temper) with (temper) "tampered with" evidence (tamper)
Coz you'll come along for the sun if you come at al
To lose your heart you'll have to teake, take and tak
Painting a lie seeing the colours but you see
Closer to everythin
Closer now than we ever have bee
We're closer now that we ever should (we) b
Closer now than we've ever been befor
Closer to everythin
Busking for change and changing everythin
Feeble fables aren't changing many thing
It's my time to shine like a tuna in the brin
For my pregnant paws aren't changing anythin
To all of the animals who keep sipping the swea
From my back
You're making me il
An
I can't get enoug
So take another pill and tell another li
And lie amongst your lies like tuna in the brin
7. TOO MUCH OF NOT ENOUGH
She tripped on a hole that I'd dug in the soi
To be part of a human garden and I couldn'
Stand in the straight postured su
But you stood in the mud which came unsoile
When I came alon
You see it's good for nothing, good for nothin
A close look at somethin
So clos
It's too much of not enoug
When all we need is just a tast
I strapped myself in for a safe saccharid
Before it started I tried to be anything I saw fi
And it all seemed to fit but you came undon
When I came alon
Blind white lies and shallow trut
Broken strings and stolen yout
I've seen too much of not enough bu
You came much closer than they had befor
You never stop needin
And it's good for nothin
8. LUV YOUR LIFE
Thrust the candle to the dark of your diseas
Burn the fishplate execute ill memorie
Labyrinth of sympathy in which I'm lost and can't leav
And too much truth overshadows the lime lie
And what lies beneath the clouds is a
Altered perception and I'll pay for sanit
But sanity don't come chea
You don't know the truth and I love your lif
Flinch against the fire but this ain't winte
And I'm all by myself the way I wanna b
Where I'm content to be to be all by mysel
But frozen eyes are bound to mel
9. THE LEVER
Turn the mirrors face the wal
Don't you feel a little weak
And I'd catch you when you fal
But you're falling all the tim
Do you need it anymore
Or do you need a little more
Living your life like you're bull in the trad
He doesn't know how it feel
Under my thumb like a bone under nai
She's in the know, how's it feel
Live your life under machine gun
Canary down the min
Maybe I'm on the leve
Spoiling my broth like a radio ki
Programmed computerised min
Waving my luck under your nos
Like I found a four leaf clove
10. MY FAVOURITE THING
Got my fever down, then weighed it up, and know th
Sounds remaining won't strain all the silt from my eye
Bleach the green from the pastures, feast on the gre
Of the night, straight from the vines refusal to shin
You're my favourite thing - the one that I lov
You're the one so I'd die for your lov
Blind the deafened moon, stimulate the tombs of angel
I'll open my heart won't fall apar
Don't fall apart
You're my favourite thin
And I feel like letting go
11. AFTER ALL THESE YEARS
Breathe in the nigh
That crushed a tired sunris
Born again the da
Brings you naivet
A laptop souvenir is worth its weigh
In silver a golden so
You'll be home agai
And I'll be home agai
Mend in my slee
I'm boxing under wate
Waddle on the wak
Waking on a summer da
After all these year
Forget about all the troubled time
Munificent, artless and asceti
Playing like a scare
Enthusiastic paw
And every father's pai
Casts a shadow over a broken so
You'll be whole agai
And I'll be whole agai
All those year
I was hurting to fee
Something more than life
Across the nigh
It was the moon that stole my slumbe
Across the nigh
I fell in love with people sleepin
And hugged a man's arthritic shoulde
