Black fight Black death
Black bandages
Black hope escape
Black night Kuwait
It's Blackfire
It's backfired
It's backfired
don't you feel somedays
you want to start again
by throwing out all of your
faded skeletons
take the lid off
throw it in
and burn it
I caught my finger
in the black zip of your dress
now it lies out beside
the backstep with the rest
waste not want not
we decide how good this
life should be
fire burnt away dark hours
and the white thoughts no one sees
boxes filled with words
and promises I keep
I've piled them high
into the throw out heap
I have no ghost
I have no spirit in my room
I've burnt them all
to let happiness
shine through
how can we pray
when decay is an offering
companies sing
in an orchestra hammering
God in a dustbin
means faith can be anything
what does it take to replace
all those simple things?
just imagine
a galaxy removed
where the buildings have no ceilings
and architects meet
in a natural retreat
for a change they show
some integration
Mary in the morning
forgot those warnings he started again
what could he do?
Mary 'belongs to him'
she sighs
I will not compromise
just to look good in your eyes
challenger
Mary's talking
nobody could understand the way you've hurt me
what you've turned into
I'm just a girl who loved you once
until I knew you
I will not compromise
just to look good in your eyes
challenger
And in this solitude
it's great to be unabused
challenger
when your meters read so low
you feel you've got to go
there is no sense in sticking around
the feeling now is all around
where is that girl when I need her now
I hope she'll be home soon
I'm sick of going up
sick of going down
tried to give you up
tried to settle down
tried to be somebody else
tried to put you out
like dynamite
you set my heart on fire
I travel on
you're there at the station
you take me home
it's our salvation
furnished in style
love is a banquet
knowing this time
took it for granted
in this heavenly reprise
to be with you keeps my life alive
I skip along
you can be magic
you turn me on
your face is a magnet
and the heaven in your room
is the universe I hold on to
colouring in
tasting your appetite
to live
living to fly
finding your my lullaby
lord I ask you
lord I've tried
to settle down and harmonise
in this country
where there's you
call me back
make me stay
be my parachute
break my fall
I'll ignore
what you said to me
slowing down to this ground
of uncertainty
tried of thinking
for myself
I want to hide away in bed
in the morning
with you
looking back I realise
it's the little things
that make me cry
when I miss you
miss you
sick of being
with or without you
time brought us together
forever
hold me steady
hold me up high
catch my breath
you'll stop me falling
falling
I'll take you down to the river
take your clothes
and make you bear it all to me
the solution is simplicity
give it all
or forget it
go all the way
or forget it
so come on down now
make an impression
cause there's truth in a natural scene
days are filled with suspicion
make believe becomes a reason
to keep so far way
and let it all decay
so let's go down to the river
throw our fears out of the window
and row right our to sea
in a boat made out of honesty
give it all
or forget it
cry out loud
or forget it
make my day
or forget it
go all the way
or forget it
spread my wings I'll fly you round
and gather music underground
blackened sky and blackened sea
play hide and seek
holy water holy sky
to be afraid and not know why
let me see your mystery place
legends make it fast to fathom
in the moonlight
living here and near
spirits flying high
to the mountains with a mission
killing all my fear
swim with me we'll dive down deep
and find a place
for us to sleep
coral reef and coral sea
play hide and seek
for a ticket for a call
the ocean is my fortune teller
bow to me your wicked ways
the worls has made you undertaker
time is running our
for the galaxy
with lightening speed
the rocket ship
has saved us from destruction
rub the bottle
let her out
this genies had enough
no master no command
just give her a hand
a winters tale
this town
it's comforting with you
and happiness is yours
my god you deserve it
leave me to wonder
you leave me to play
love filled with music
my hear in decay
someone so special
I couldn't ignore
gravitate slowly
to you on the floor
joy in confusion
this joy surrounds you
coloured emotions
my mind is black and blue
someone so special
I coulnd't ignore
it's you I adore
if nothings ventured
there's nothing to write about
I would surrender
surrender my words for your insight
and the sun ends the day
or is it the morning
is it the ending or the beginning?
should I
stop the clock
or wind it
from left to right it hangs
nothing ventured
