The Kids Are On High Street

In a wake of some change
Stones in the pipeline
Like some new mountain range
Leave the lowlands behind

They take your photograph
You come into existence
You realize it's your path
In this very instant

Some heroes are we
To pass outside these gates
With a will to adjust
Adjust to what it takes
You add another year to this
And it all has gone to waste
Other plans have been made
To pursue your own separate fates

They take your photograph
You come into existence
You realize it's your path
In this very instant

The kids are on High Street
The kids will not sleep tonight
The kids got in a knife fight
We trained them well
They're gonna be alright
I'll be joining with them soon
I can't even wait to get away from you
'Cause it's only in hindsight
That we will know what was right to do
I always thought we had it made
Ambition spurred the plans we laid

They take your photograph
You come into existence
You realize it's your path
In this very instant

On Your Side

I'm really on your side
Although you may not ever believe that it's so
I've been taken to looking back
Across it all, it was never that bad
Oh you know

For the minute a pretty face
In the mirror, to take my place
To submit to the tunnel race
I'm going to see to your immediate needs
Love's for idiots, so leave me alone on my liberties
My liberties

For twenty days or more
I've been staring a hole in the wall
So this business is what I left you for
We were never that bad together at all
For the slightest little change
I will stitch it up and rearrange it
When I feel more than a little strange
Get someone else to do the thinking please
Love's for idiots, so leave me alone on my liberties
My liberties

I'm really on your side
And I would never ever try and hurt you again no no
Take my blessings where ever you go
And if there's someone else to who you wish to go
I just dont want to know
You're none of my business now
I do forget it sometimes
I dont know how
I get too weary and I get too loud
I always knew there would be times like these
Love's for idiots, so leave me alone on my liberties
Leave me alone, my liberties
My liberties

Stories From The Streets

All the stories from the streets
They make their way up to your window
Re-awaken certain memories
This way you re-live them again and again
One will change into the other
Untill you don't know what is real
And it's true, you've gone full circle
And it's not the first time you've been here
Fall back on a wave
Alive and well
It folds and it turns
It breaks, it burns
It all happens once again
I will go this way
You will go that way
What's it to you?
I will go this way
You will go that way
Who's gonna stop you?
It's true you have been thinking
Whatever it took you to get ahead
And the people you wish to remove yourself from
Well you sometimes turn to them instead
It's all for no good reason
Except to just keep passing on
Ah the stories from the streets
You ain't got no idea where they come from
Fall back on a wave
Alive and well
It folds and it turns
It breaks, it burns
It all happens once again
I will go this way
You will go that way
What's it to you?
I will go this way
You will go that way
Who's gonna stop you?

Running Out Of Time

One more early morning
One more late afternoon
Once more you're out in the wind
And once more you come in too soon
It's a long road, oh man
And it's a hard road
You wanna make sure to make all the friends that you can make
You ain't worth much more to them
Than the worth of what you give
And the worth of what you take
In this old ritual of compassion
Well, you just fail and fall behind
Now you're running
Seems to me you're running
You're running out of time
You know it ain't love
No, you know it ain't love
Unless it's eating you alive
When you're in your bed at night
No, you know it ain't love
You know there can't be no love
Unless it comes howlin' out of you
Then you know the time is right
Ah you wait so long
And now you don't know
Now you don't know what to do
Except to pray for your love
To come returning on back to you
You dry out with all of this bitterness and fear
And with every passing year
Nothing's really real to you
Except this pain that you feel
You will come to realize
That you had your day
Someday oh so long ago
When somebody came a-calling at your door
And you pretend that you were not home
Now you're running
You're running
You're running out of time

The Lost Gospel

Oh Lord
When your heart beats within mine
Oh mine
Am I in anyway divine?
Or still twisted and unkind?
And low down
In the misty gorges of time
Well oh Lord
When your heart beats within mine
No I never ever want this thing to pass
One should never fall in love with things that last
Last only for a day
And they'll stay with you for another day
Well oh Lord
When your heart beats within mine
Oh mine
Am I in any way divine?
Or still twisted and unkind?
Oh no I never ever want this thing to pass
One should never fall in love with things that last
Last only for a day
And they'll stay with you for another day
Well I can hear your heart beat
As we are lifted off the ground
It's all around
Oh no I never ever want this thing to pass
One should never fall in love with things that last
Last only for a day
And they'll stay with you for another day
No no I never ever want this thing to pass
One should never fall in love with things that last
Last only for a day
And they'll stay with you for another day

Electro Vakuum

Photographic images
Your faded smile
The air
What's to it?

I try to shake it off all evening
I try to pass just out of reach
To reach conclusions that can't be concluded
A hotline to the past, that's all it is

I was anxious
I was sure you'd come to see the show
And what's more
I was hoping you would appreciate it

It's electrified at first, yes
But then it drops
It's a box of many flavours
But we are not enough, is that not so?
Not sure, just wont have it

Get your mind off what you leave behind
You know you may as well be going blind lately
It's hard to say, you know
Well, you've been led astray
This simply will not do
And it's true it hurts me too

Well I guess it's not so long ago
I turned to speak and there was no-one
Nothing, just a street car rolling by

Now, nothing in here really moves
I just produce a bunch of silly lies
And all those brightly colored lights
Ah but I have loved you in my way
I have loved you
Too much too fast
And then a little
A little too late

You've been led astray
For what reason I can't say
I won't stand in your way again

It's been another ...
As such is that and I reach through your window
Wake you in the morning

I was waiting
I was sure you'd get whatever you were waiting for
But I can't stand it anymore

Hard To Come Back

We're on a roll
We crack and roll in the bar rooms
It's a glorious calling
If you've got nothing much to lose
And you can take it further still
That's all you really want to
Now you will, you will
So what you waiting for?
There's nothing waiting for you here no more

If you go
It will be hard to come back
If you go
It will be hard
Hard to come back
It's hard to come back
It's hard to come back, you know
It's hard to come back
Again
es duro regresar
This ain't your house
This ain't your name on the front door
She ain't your true love
You ain't the one you were before
And it will never be enough for you
To go about doing what you used to do
You gonna need something more
You best be headed for the door

Oh, if you go
It will be hard to come back
If you go
It will be hard
Hard to come back
It's hard to come back
It's hard to come back, you know
It's hard to come back
It will be hard to come back
it will be hard you know

Slow Builder

It's a slow builder
And the night is your special friend
Midday fever gonna get to you in the end
Someone's waiting on a windswept hill
Old man William greets the day
With a song
It's a slow builder
Got your wheels spinning 'round the world
On a cliff by the river
Just the thought makes your insides turn
Knocks you out and here we go again
Eighteen wheels on the road
To somewhere
Will day come along
Will day come along
Will day come along
Will day come that changes everything
Everything
It's a slow builder
And it's rising inside you still
All things seem clearer
You can say whatever you will
Got to admit it was a special place
Now, you hated it
When you were there
But now you will love it forever
Will day come along
Will day come that changes everything
Is that your wheels spinning still?
Is that your wheels squeeking still?
Is that your wheels grinding to a hault now?
You're gonna need someone now
You're gonna need someone now
You just know
You're gonna need someone now
When she's knocking
On your window
And you know that it's time to go back

You're gonna need someone now

Sail Away

All I see is my newfound friend
And all the things she grants me
Freedom is not among those things
And freedom is by no means free

Well, this is where it all begins
Begins to stretch and part
If we were to be changing things
I wouldn't know where to start

I just want to sail away
From it all
Freedom is impossible
This I know

I can't find it in no bedroom
Or wherever it is I run and hide
And I never did find it
By anyone's side

Well this is where it all begins
The night pulled tight around me
Now that I have found this big love
I'm sometimes dwarfed in it's company

Yes I become aware of all the air that I displace
I was just the smallest of nations
The next day I go on lightly
And limitless within my limitations

I just want to sail away
From it all
Freedom is impossible
This I
This I know

I can't find it in no bedroom
Or wherever it is I run and hide
No, I never did find it
By anyone's side
By anyone's side

I just want to sail away
From it all
Freedom is impossible
For this I
This I know

I can't find it in no bedroom
Or wherever it is I run and hide
And I never did find it
By anyone's side
Anyone's side

Life In The City

She's alright, she's alright
Now why don't you leave it alone?
Tired of working overtime
Seeing someone on the side
Tired of losing out in a tide of a-coming and going
No she's never gonna meet him at the overpass again
This is the life
It's just passing by
You gotta try harder, try harder
You better never let it go
You gotta try harder, try harder
You better never let it go
That's the life, that's the life that we lead in the city
That's the life, that's the life that we lead in the city
She's a shadow in the underground
Echoing the inner city blues
Hurrying home to go lock herself up again
Yeah the people are so scary some times
They look you straight in the eye
They are all grey and ugly as they go passing in the rain
This is the life
Man, willing in any way to net a free ride
Try harder, try harder
You better never let it go
You gotta try harder, try harder
Never ever ever let it go
That's the life, that's the life that we lead in the city
That's the life, that's the life that we lead in the city
