1. SIT AND WONDER

I sit and wonder, I often wonder
I sit and wonder about the things she does
I sit and wonder, I often wonder
I've been waiting for this moment to come

And she's the teacher and I'm the pupil but I aint learning anything at all
Now I'm falling into the black hole and I can barely feel the sun

Yeah I sit and wonder, I fall to pieces
I've been waiting for her to come
A bed of roses, her cheeks like peaches
Yeah I ain’t going to wait no more

Give me some light, give the light, yeah give me some light, give me some light

Well writes a passage, we are mistaken yeah some are going to break into stone,
The door is open and I am reaching, yeah it looks like a prodigal son

Yeah give me some light, give the light, yeah give me some light, give me some light

God give me the light, give me the light, yeah give me some light, give me some light

I've been there doing it to my mind lord

Something is going on inside my head lord
Something is going on inside my head lord


2. LOVE IS NOISE

Will those feet in modern times
Walk on soles that are made in China
Through the bright prosaic malls
And the corridors that go on and on and on

Are we blind, can we see
We are one, incomplete
Are we blind, in the city
Waiting for lightning to be saved, yeah
Cause love is noise, love is pain
Love is these blues that I'm singing again

Love is noise, love is pain
Love is these blues that I'm singing again, again, again, again, again
Will those feet in modern times
Understand this world's affliction
Recognise the righteous anger
Understand this world's addiction

I was blind, couldn't see
What was here in me
I was blind, insecure
Felt like the road was way too long, yeah

Cause love is noise, love is pain
Love is these blues that I'm singing again
Love is noise, love is pain
Love is these blues that I'm singing again
Love is noise, love is pain
Love is these blues that I'm feeling again
Love is noise, love is pain
Love is these blues that I'm singing again, again, again, again, again, again, again

Cause love is noise, love is pain
Love is these blues that you're feeling again
Love is noise, love is pain
Love is these blues that I'm singing again, again, again, again, again, again, again

All those feet in modern times
Walk on soles made in China
Will those feet in modern times
See the bright prosaic malls
Will those feet in modern times
Recognise the heavy burden
Will those feet in modern times
Pardon me for my sins
Love is noise


3. RATHER BE

Yeah there's no evil introductions
No doubt, corridors and failure
You'll find your fortune
You'll mind find some pain
I wanna lie together
Feels like our last embrace
In a world full of confusion
Yeah the human race

But I'd rather be here than be anywhere
Is there anywhere better than here
You know these feelings I've found they are oh so rare
Is there anywhere better than here

Sometimes life seems to tear us apart
I don't wanna let you go
Sometimes these feelings hidden
I start to cry
Cause I won't ever let you go
Multiplying

We have just really heard this about
Always on the evil destruction
Making all them scream out loud
And as I watch
My life in which
One moment while I m still crying
Oh another day is coming

'Cause I'd rather be than be anywhere
Is there anywhere better than here
You know these feelings I've found they are also red
Is there anywhere better than here

Sometimes life seems to tear us apart
I don't wanna let you go
Sometimes these feelings hidden
I start to cry
Cause I won't ever let you go

But I'd rather be here than be anywhere
Is there anywhere better than here
You know these feelings I've found they are also red
Is there anywhere better than here

Sometimes these feelings
These feelings are also red


4. JUDAS

Feelings
Only feelings
Just let them, let them go

Feelings
Only feelings
Just worthless, so I let them go

New York, I was Judas
She said 'a latte, double shot for Judas'
Cry for the things that happen, people need to know
And for a dream to happen
You gotta let it go, gotta let it go
Gotta let it go, gotta let it go aha
Gotta let it go

You let it go
You let it go

But there must be
Some answer
I keep seeking, cause I gotta know
We are numbered, and we are labeled
Do we ever, break our home

I knew it, before you said it
There's no need for, need to wait
Need to wait

You let it go
I'm running
In the sky
Slipping round
Hold me up high
I I I, high high high
High, high, high

Still holding on, you know the dreams have just begun
The dream's just begun
The dream's just begun
I know you're still holding on
Because the dream has just begun


5. NUMBNESS

Just breathe in the air
But don’t be afraid
There's a time for us to make
Sense of all this pain
Sense of all this pain

Mama, mama, mama, mama
Mama don't let loose
Before you get tied
Just let the chains loose
Before you really really really really
Really let loose
Of all the faded chains

Numbness on my brain, babe
Yeah, numbness on my brain
Yeah, numbness on my brain
Yeah, numbness on my brain

Picture this life embracing
Living life, reminisce, take your time
No secret for a long while
Here comes mother nature's child

Numbness on the brain
Numbness on the brain
Oh, rain
Yeah, numbness on the brain
Yeah, numbness on the brain

Strange times are coming
Hope, yeah you got your bags all there
Oh, you got your cupboard all stocked up
You got your pride just rare, ready

Numbness on my brain, babe
Yeah, numbness on my brain
Yeah, numbness on my brain
Yeah, numbness on my brain

Oh yeah, oh yeah
So these are my days, my days, my days
So these are my crimes
So these are my crimes
So these are my crimes, numbness on my brain

I lived and I die
I loved and I fall, numbness on my brain
I fall and I cry
I laughed and I loved, yeah numbness on my brain
I loved and I lost
Till the victory is ours, yeah numbness on my brain
The snakes in the grass

Yeah numbness on my brain
Yeah numbness on my brain
Yeah numbness on my brain


6. I SEE HOUSES

I see houses
Rows and rows
Of red bricks
I see black cars
Some
Blood-stained exit
You got
A feeling that you
You've been
In here before
How many lives
Will you waste
How many tears
Must you taste

Before your freedom
Before your freedom

I see mountains
Blood-red sunsets
I see
A billion stars
Love deafened
And betrayed
You got
A feeling that you
You've been
In here before
How many lives
Will you waste
How many tears
Must you taste

Before your freedom
Before your freedom

Don't be late

You got
A feeling that you
You've been
In here before
How many lives
Will you waste
How many tears
Must you taste

Before your freedom
You got a feeling
That you
You've been
Here before
How many lives
Will you waste
How many blood
Must you taste

Before your freedom

It's just
This murder
Trouble and strife
Turning me
Into another guy
It's just murder
Trouble and strife
Turning me
Into another guy

Don't be late
Don't be late
Don't be late
When I call you up

Ooh
Oh-my, my, my, my
My, my, my


7. NOISE EPIC

Pleading with Athos of the Rock
In the ancient language which he spoke
But I didn't even give a damn
'Cause all I wanted to do was just sit back and talk
Talk about the restless winds that were blowing in my mind
That twisted all we grow as too thin
And feelings I had which I couldn't describe
And the places I'd come within
And in the chrome light I stood up and I just began
I'd sell my pride on a whim, let it blow
The righteous light that was guiding me still
And the man with the Holy soul
Impatience took a dim view of my words
And let me down again
I'm so dusty, laden with all that world-weary stars and reverends

I've got your Mother Mary, God
Life is empty, I wanna
Find some peace today
I said, Mother Mary, oh
Life's so empty, I
Need some peace today, oh oh today

Oh those twisted corridors of power
In the ivory walls of hate
Where the eagle flies so proudly
And I just can't, just can't wait
In the victim's mind, he's ready
He is ready to exploit the weakness
Of the century's greed and feebleness
And the lies they whisper
To his brothers and sisters

Please Jesus, oh I love you
Won't you come to stay
Mother Mary, oh
Life is empty, I wanna
Find some peace today

Hannah hung around for the rapture
On the roam for forty years
Of course no-one came, and you know I still live in fear
Always waiting for the prince of seventy-two
I was waiting for the world to fall apart, how about you

If Husain could have waited
Nava'I could have seen the stars in the sky
'Cause I've been waiting for you for fifty odd years
I've been waiting for you through these hopes and these tears
I was waiting for you, I'm waiting for you
There's thunder, in the sky

Why, why, why did I let you down
Can I carry that cross for you
Can I carry that cross for you
Is there anything that I need to know
Did you let me down
Did you let me down
Why, why, why did you let me down

Did you think I wouldn't know
Why, why, why did you let me down

I wanna sit right here, I'm gonna write you a letter
I wanna sail, I wanna sail over the ocean
I wanna talk to Best and Muhammad Ali
I don't just use my fists, yeah I use my feet
They got spirit, I got spirit
Oh mama mama mama it's like yellow earth
What was it like for you when you was giving birth
You got it in for you, I got it in for me
I said, why you always jump in places like Steve Mc Queen
I got spirit, come feel it
I got spirit, you can feel it
He got spirit, we gotta feel it
You got spirit, scream if you feel it

Wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up
Wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up


8. VALIUM SKIES

Can you keep yourself on for good
Seems like the whole world is losing
How do you stop yourself up
Even if seems like the whole world is crying

She got all I need
The air I breath
When it comes to my valium skies
She don't mind if I cry

How do you stop your love from crying
Even if you knew she was lying
How do you stop this world from loathing
Still no knocking with all these cards I'm holding

She got all I need
The air I breath
When it comes to my valium skies
She don't mind if I cry

She don't mind if I cry
She don't mind if I cry

She got all I need
The air I breath
When it comes to my valium skies
She don't mind if I cry

When it comes to my valium skies
She don't mind if I cry


9. COLUMBO

Baby why are you wasting time crying
Like it’s the only thing to do
Baby don't you worry, yourself crying
Your instinct's all that's guiding you

Baby don't you worry, yourself crying
I could see the sadness in your eyes
Baby why are you wasting time crying
Trying to find out the reasons why

Baby don't believe them when they say it
Love is just a feeling that you give
You’re the universe and you'll know all I need
Tell me all the secrets that I forget

Oh yeah, yeah, oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
All right, ooh yeah, all right

Just watch the lights go down over this town
Watch the Thames weave down, wind it's way round
Watch the city boys leave, full of bluster
Oh where are we now
Ain’t it easy for you as a kid
To get yourself so messed up
We don't know, we don't know
We don't know, we don't know
We don't know, we don't know
we don't know, we don't know

Fame, a celebrity culture, flash light, flash light
Fame, a bullet proof bathroom
Inside she's fixing up
Fame, a sealing-up number one
Vacuum, a vacuum
Fame, miracle accent,
Inside, start it up
Shoot it up, shoot it up, shoot it up, shoot your gun
Fame, the vanity mistress
Fame, the mirror of the wet dream
And I look, and I'm feeling that accent
Dying on the inside, I’m dying on the inside

Love's like oxygen
Love's like oxygen
Love's like oxygen
Love's like oxygen
Love's like oxygen


10. APPALACHIAN SKIES

Does anybody know where we really gonna go
I was wondering if it's god damned beautiful
You know the thing we cannot trade, forever wrong
You know the thing we cannot trade, forever wrong

Solitude, my secret mood, Appalachian springs
On my things
Take a step to the left
Take a step to the right
I saw myself
And it wasn't quite right

Does anybody know where we really gonna go
I was looking for answers in the sun
And the feelings that a man can't control
And if the fire burn bright
In the deadly night

I said that I would never be on their side

Take a step to the left, take a step to the right
And I saw myself and I give it to
And it wasn't quite right
And it wasn't quite right

And I was waiting for
Like a calling, singing in the sun
You said I remember '69'
I said OK

Solitude, my secret mood, Appalachian springs
On my things

Take a step to the left
Take a step to the right
I'm gonna keep it together

I'm gonna keep it together


11. LET THE DAMAGE BEGIN

Got a call from a friend I knew
She found me begging
Just like I always do
There's no room for imagination
Suffocating in my head
I need some liberation

And it feels good

Close the door
And take off those clothes
Dance with me till the morning shows
In your bed and in your skin
I'll be your whole
One whole soul

I need this feeling almost every day
Can't beat this feeling girl
I just gotta say
In your bed and in your skin
I'll be your whole
One whole soul
Turn out the lights
Let the damage
Didn't like pain
Till I lived in sin

Don't you
Don't you come on
Don't you
Do you

In your bed and in your skin
Didn't like pain

Till I lived in sin

So let’s go for a ride
Go for a ride
I feel fine
Go for a ride
I'm feeling fine
Let's go for a ride
Go for a ride
Let's go for a ride
We will
