Ive been reading books of old
The legends and the myths
Achilles and his gold
Hercules and his gifts
Spider-Mans control
And Batman with his fists
And clearly I dont see myself upon that list
But she said, where dyou wanna go?
How much you wanna risk?
Im not looking for somebody
With some superhuman gifts
Some superhero
Some fairytale bliss
Just something I can turn to
Somebody I can kiss
I want something just like this
Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo
Doo-doo-doo, doo, doo
Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo
Oh, I want something just like this
Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo
Doo-doo-doo, doo, doo
Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo
Oh, I want something just like this
I want something just like this
Ive been reading books of old
The legends and the myths
The testaments they told
The moon and its eclipse
And Superman unrolls
A suit before he lifts
But Im not the kind of person that it fits
She said, where dyou wanna go?
How much you wanna risk?
Im not looking for somebody
With some superhuman gifts
Some superhero
Some fairytale bliss
Just something I can turn to
Somebody I can miss
I want something just like this
I want something just like this
Oh, I want something just like this
Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo
Doo-doo-doo, doo, doo
Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo
Oh, I want something just like this
Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo
Doo-doo-doo, doo, doo
Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo
Where dyou wanna go?
How much you wanna risk?
Im not looking for somebody
With some superhuman gifts
Some superhero
Some fairytale bliss
Just something I can turn to
Somebody I can kiss
I want something just like this
Oh, I want something just like this
Oh, I want something just like this
Oh, I want something just like this |
Come up to meet you, tell you Im sorry
You dont know how lovely you are
I had to find you, tell you I need you
Tell you I set you apart
Tell me your secrets, and ask me your questions
Oh, lets go back to the start
Running in circles, coming up tails
Heads on a science apart
Nobody said it was easy
Its such a shame for us to part
Nobody said it was easy
No one ever said it would be this hard
Oh, take me back to the start
I was just guessing at numbers and figures
Pulling the puzzles apart
Questions of science, science and progress
Do not speak as loud as my heart
Tell me you love me, come back and haunt me
Oh, and I rush to the start
Running in circles, chasing our tails
Coming back as we are
Nobody said it was easy
Oh, its such a shame for us to part
Nobody said it was easy
No one ever said it would be so hard
Im going back to the start
Oh-ooh ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ah-ooh ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Oh-ooh ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Oh-ooh ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh |
I used to rule the world
Seas would rise when I gave the word
Now in the morning, I sleep alone
Sweep the streets I used to own
I used to roll the dice
Feel the fear in my enemys eyes
Listen as the crowd would sing
Now the old King is dead, long live the King
One minute I held the key
Next the walls were closed on me
And I discovered that my castles stand
Upon pillars of salt and pillars of sand
I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
Be my mirror, my sword, and shield
My missionaries in a foreign field
For some reason I cant explain
Once youd gone, there was never
Never an honest word
And that was when I ruled the world
It was the wicked and wild wind
Blew down the doors to let me in
Shattered windows and the sound of drums
People couldnt believe what Id become
Revolutionaries wait
For my head on a silver plate
Just a puppet on a lonely string
Aw, who would ever want to be king?
I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
Be my mirror, my sword, and shield
My missionaries in a foreign field
For some reason I cant explain
I know Saint Peter wont call my name
Never an honest word
But that was when I ruled the world
Oh-oh-woah, oh-oh, oh
Oh-oh-woah, oh-oh, oh
Oh-oh-woah, oh-oh, oh
Oh-oh-woah, oh-oh, oh
I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
Be my mirror, my sword and shield
My missionaries in a foreign field
For some reason I cant explain
I know Saint Peter wont call my name
Never an honest word
But that was when I ruled the world
Mmm, mmm, mmm, mmm
Mmm, mmm, mmm, mmm
Mmm, mmm |
When you try your best, but you dont succeed
When you get what you want, but not what you need
When you feel so tired, but you cant sleep
Stuck in reverse
And the tears come streaming down your face
When you lose something you cant replace
When you love someone, but it goes to waste
Could it be worse?
Lights will guide you home
And ignite your bones
And I will try to fix you
And high up above or down below
When youre too in love to let it go
But if you never try, youll never know
Just what youre worth
Lights will guide you home
And ignite your bones
And I will try to fix you
Tears stream down your face
When you lose something you cannot replace
Tears stream down your face, and I
Tears stream down your face
I promise you I will learn from my mistakes
Tears stream down your face, and I
Lights will guide you home
And ignite your bones
And I will try to fix you |
Look at the stars
Look how they shine for you
And everything you do
Yeah, they were all yellow
I came along
I wrote a song for you
And all the things you do
And it was called Yellow
So then I took my turn
Oh, what a thing to have done
And it was all yellow
Your skin, oh yeah, your skin and bones
Turn into something beautiful
You know, you know I love you so
You know I love you so
I swam across
I jumped across for you
Oh, what a thing to do
Cause you were all yellow
I drew a line
I drew a line for you
Oh, what a thing to do
And it was all yellow
Your skin, oh yeah, your skin and bones
Turn into something beautiful
And you know
For you, Id bleed myself dry
For you, Id bleed myself dry
Its true, look how they shine for you
Look how they shine for you
Look how they shine for
Look how they shine for you
Look how they shine for you
Look how they shine
Look at the stars
Look how they shine for you
And all the things that you do |
And said drink from me, drink from me
That we shoot across the sky
Symphony
That we shoot across the sky
Pour on a...
Drink from me, drink from me
That we shoot across the sky
Symphony
That we shoot across the sky
Oh, angel sent from up above
You know you make my world light up
When I was down, when I was hurt
You came to lift me up
Life is a drink and loves a drug
Oh now I think I must be miles up
When I was a river dried up
You came to rain a flood
You said drink from me, drink from me
When I was so thirsty
Poured on a symphony
Now I just cant get enough
Put your wings on me, wings on me
When I was so heavy
Poured on a symphony
When Im low, low, low, low
I, Oh-I, Oh-I
Got me feeling drunk and high
So high, so high
Oh-I, Oh-I, Oh-I
Now I’m feeling drunk and high
So high, so high
Oh, angel sent from up above
I feel you coursing through my blood
Life is a drink and your loves about
To make the stars come out
Put your wings on me, wings on me
When I was so heavy
Poured on a symphony
When Im low, low, low, low
I, Oh-I, Oh-I
Got me feeling drunk and high
So high, so high
Oh-I, Oh-I, Oh-I
I’m feeling drunk and high
So high, so high
I, Oh-I, Oh-I
La, la, la, la, la, la, la
So high, so high
I, Oh-I, Oh-I
Now Im feeling drunk and high
So high, so high
That I shoot across the sky
That I shoot across the...
That I shoot across the sky
Let me shoot across the...
Let me shoot across the sky
Let me shoot across the...
Let me shoot across the sky
That we shoot across the... |
Cause youre a sky, cause youre a sky full of stars
Im gonna give you my heart
Cause youre a sky, cause youre a sky full of stars
Cause you light up the path
I dont care, go on and tear me apart
I dont care if you do, ooh-ooh, ooh
Cause in a sky, cause in a sky full of stars
I think I saw you ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
Cause youre a sky, cause youre a sky full of stars
I wanna die in your arms, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh
Cause you get lighter the more it gets dark
Im gonna give you my heart, oh
I dont care, go on and tear me apart
I dont care if you do, ooh-ooh, ooh
Cause in a sky, cause in a sky full of stars
I think I see you ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
I think I see you ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
Cause youre a sky, youre a sky full of stars
Such a heavenly view
Youre such a heavenly view |
Oh, they say people come, say people go
This particular diamond was extra special
And though you might be gone, and the world may not know
Still I see you, celestial
Like a lion you ran, a goddess you rolled
Like an eagle, you circled, in perfect purple
So how come things move on? How come cars don’t slow?
When it feels like the end of my world
When I should, but I can’t let you go
But when I’m cold, cold
Yeah, when I’m cold, cold
There’s a light that you give me when I’m in shadow
There’s a feelin within me, everglow
Like brothers in blood, sisters who ride
And we swore on that night, we’d be friends til we die
But the changin of winds, and the way waters flow
Life is short as the fallin of snow
And now I’m gonna miss you, I know
But when I’m cold, cold
In water rolled, salt
And I know that you’re with me and the way you will show
And you’re with me wherever I go
And you give me this feelin, this everglow
Oh, what I wouldnt give for just a moment to hold
Because I live for this feelin, this everglow
So if you love someone, you should let them know
Oh, the light that you left me will everglow |
Turn your magic on
Umi shed say
Everything you wants a dream away
And we are legends, every day
Thats what she told me
Turn your magic on, to me shed say
Everything you wants a dream away
Under this pressure, under this weight
We are diamonds
Now I feel my heart beating
I feel my heart underneath my skin
And I feel my heart beating
Oh, you make me feel
Like Im alive again
Alive again
Oh, you make me feel
Like Im alive again
Said I cant go on, not in this way
Im a dream that died by light of day
Gonna hold up half the sky and say
Only I own me
Now I feel my heart beating
I feel my heart underneath my skin
Oh, I can feel my heart beating
Cause you make me feel
Like Im alive again
Alive again
Oh, you make me feel
Like Im alive again
Turn your magic on, Umi shed say
Everything you wants a dream away
Under this pressure, under this weight
We are diamonds taking shape
We are diamonds taking shape
If weve only got this life
This adventure, oh then I
And if weve only got this life
Youll get me through
And if weve only got this life
In this adventure, oh then I
Want to share it with you
With you, with you
Yeah, I do |

When she was just a girl
She expected the world
But it flew away from her reach
So she ran away in her sleep
And dreamed of para-para-paradise
Para-para-paradise
Para-para-paradise
Every time she closed her eyes
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
When she was just a girl
She expected the world
But it flew away from her reach
And the bullets catch in her teeth
Life goes on, it gets so heavy
The wheel breaks the butterfly
Every tear, a waterfall
In the night, the stormy night, shed close her eyes
In the night, the stormy night, away shed fly
And dream of para-para-paradise
Para-para-paradise
Para-para-paradise
Oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
Shed dream of para-para-paradise
Para-para-paradise
Para-para-paradise
Oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
La, la-la, la-la-la
La, la-la, la-la-la
La, la-la, la-la-la, la-la
So lying underneath those stormy skies
She said, Oh, oh-oh-oh-oh I know the sun must set to rise
This could be para-para-paradise
Para-para-paradise
This could be para-para-paradise
Oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
This could be para-para-paradise
Para-para-paradise
This could be para-para-paradise
Oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
This could be para-para-paradise
This could be para-para-paradise
This could be para-para-paradise

I want to know when I can go
Back and get drunk with my friends
Boom boom kah, buba de kah
Boom boom kah, buba de kah
Boom boom kah, buba de kah
Rosaleem of the Damascene
Yes, she had eyes like the moon
Would have been on the silver screen
But for the missile monsoon
She went
Indigo up in heaven today
Bombs going boom-ba-ba-boom
She say
I want to know when I can go
Back and get drunk with my friends
I want to know when I can go
Back and be young again
Baba would go where the flowers grow
Almond and peach trees in bloom
And he would know just when and what to sow
So golden and opportune
But he went
Tulips the colour of honey today
Bombs going boom-ba-ba-boom
He say
Oh, I want to know when I can go
Back and get drunk with my friends
I want to know when I can go
Back and be young again
Woo-woo, woo-woo, ooh-ooh-ooh
Woo-woo, woo-woo, ooh-ooh-ooh
Cherubim, Seraphim soon
Come sailing us home by the light of the moon
Oh, I want to know when I can go
Back and get drunk with my friends
I want to know when I can go
Back and feel home again
Woo-woo, woo-woo, ooh-ooh-ooh
I guess well be raised on our own then
Woo-woo, woo-woo, ooh-ooh-ooh
Cause I want to be with you til the world ends
I want to be with you til the whole world ends
Boom boom kah, buba de kah
Boom boom kah, buba de kah
Boom boom kah, buba de kah

The lights go out and I cant be saved
Tides that I tried to swim against
Have brought me down upon my knees
Oh I beg, I beg and plead
Singin, come out of things unsaid
Shoot an apple off my head
And a trouble that cant be named
A tigers waiting to be tamed, singin
You are
You are
Confusion never stops
Closing walls and tickin clocks
Gonna come back and take you home
I could not stop that you now know
Singin, come out upon my seas
Cursed missed opportunities
Am I a part of the cure?
Or am I part of the disease? Singin
You are
You are
You are
You are
You are
You are
And nothing else compares
Oh, nothing else compares
And nothing else compares
You are
You are

Call it magic, call it true
I call it magic when Im with you
And I just got broken, broken into two
Still I call it magic, when Im next to you
And I dont, and I dont, and I dont, and I dont
No, I dont, its true

Want anybody else but you

Still, I call it magic, such a precious jewel
And I dont, and I dont, and I dont, and I dont
No, I dont, its true
I dont, no, I dont, no, I dont, no, I dont
Want anybody else but you
I dont, no, I dont, no, I dont, no, I dont
No, I dont, its true
I dont, no, I dont, no, I dont, no, I dont
Want anybody else but you
Wanna fall, fall so far
I wanna fall, fall so hard
And I call it magic
And I call it true
I call it ma-, ma-ma-magic
Ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh
And if you were to ask me
After all that weve been through
Still believe in magic?
Oh yes, I do
Oh yes, I do

Daddy, are you out there?
Daddy, wont you come and play?
Daddy, do you not care?
Is there nothing that you wanna say?

Youre hurting too
But I need you, I do

Oh, youre so far away
Thats okay, its okay

Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Youre so far away
Wont you come and wont you stay?
Please stay, oh, please stay
Wont you come and wont you stay?
One day, just one day |
What in the world are we going to do?
Look at what everybodys going through
What kind of world do you want it to be?
Am I the future or the history?
Cause everyone hurts, everyone cries
Everyone tells each other all kinds of lies
Everyone falls, everybody dreams and doubts
Got to keep dancing when the lights go out
How in the world am I going to see
You as my brother, not my enemy?
Cause everyone hurts, everyone cries
Everyone sees the colour in each others eyes
Everyone loves, everybody gets their hearts ripped out
Got to keep dancing when the lights go out
Gonna keep dancing when the lights go out
Hold tight for everyday life
Hold tight for everyday life
At first light, throw my arms out, open wide
Hallelujah, hallelujah
Hallelu-halle-hallelujah
Hallelujah, hallelujah
Hallelu-halle-hallelujah
Yes |
My father said never give up son
Just look how good Cassius become
Muhammad, Mahatma, and Nelson
Not scared to be strong
“What if they say I’m no good? What if they say Get out of here, kid. You got no future?”
Now you could run and just say they’re right
No, I’ll never be no one in my whole life
Or you could turn and say, No, wait, theyre wrong
And get to keep on dancing all life long
My father said never give up son
Just look what Amelia and Joan done
Oh Rosa, Teresa their war won
Not scared to be strong
Now you could run and just say they’re right
No I’ll never be no one in my whole life
Or you could turn and say no wait, they’re wrong
And get to keep on dancing all life long
Yeah you could be someone special
Youve got bright in your brains and lightning in your veins
Youll go higher than theyve ever gone
In you I see someone special
Youve got fire in your eyes and when you realize youll go further than weve ever gone
Just turn it on
Look I paid my intuition I couldnt afford tuition
My funds was insufficient, it felt like Im in prison
Until I realized I had to set my mind free
I was trusting statistics more than I trust me
Get a degree, good job, 401k, but I’m trying to turn k’s to m’s, what does it take?
And maybe I could be the new Ali of music prolly
Instead of doing it just as a hobby like these boys told me to
I guess you either watch the show or you show and prove
Prove it to them or you prove it to yourself but honestly its better if you do it for yourself
Never complacent till we hit the oasis
One life dont waste it feel my heart races, success I taste it, ah
We on the verge of getting every single thing that we deserve
Yeah you could be someone special
Youve got fire in your eyes I see heaven inside youll go further than weve ever gone
In you I see someone special
Youve got bright in your brains you can break through those chains youll go higher than weve ever gone
Just turn it on
In you I see someone special
Dont go to war with yourself
Just turn, just turn, just turn it on and you cant go wrong |
Fixing up a car, driving it again
Searching for the water, hoping for the rain
Up and up, up and up
Down upon the canvas, working meal to meal
Waiting for a chance to pick your orange field
Up and up, up and up
See a pearl form, a diamond in the rough
See a bird soaring high above the flood
Its in your blood, Its in your blood
Underneath the storm an umbrella is saying
Sitting with the poison takes away the pain
Up and up, up and up, its saying
We’re gonna get it, get it together right now
Gonna get it, get it together somehow
Gonna get it, get it together and flower
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
We’re gonna get it, get it together I know
Gonna get it, get it together and flow
Gonna get it, get it together and go
Up, and up, and up
Lying in the gutter, aiming for the moon
Trying to empty out the ocean with a spoon
Up and up, up and up
How come people suffer? How come people part?
How come people struggle? How come people break your heart?
Break your heart?
Yes I wanna grow, yes I want to feel
Yes I wanna know, show me how to heal it up
Heal it up
See the forest there in every seed
Angels in the marble waiting to be freed
Just need love, just need love
When the going is rough, saying
We’re gonna get it, get it together right now
Gonna get it, get it together somehow
Gonna get it, get it together and flower
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
We’re gonna get it, get it together I know
Gonna get it, get it together and flow
Gonna get it, get it together and go
And you can say what is, or fight for it
Close your mind or take a risk
You can say it’s mine and clench your fist
Or see each sunrise as a gift
We’re gonna get it, get it together right now
Gonna get it, get it together somehow
Gonna get it, get it together and flower
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
We’re gonna get it, get it together I know
Gonna get it, get it together and flow
Gonna get it, get it together and go
Up, and up, and
We’re gonna get it, get it together right now
Gonna get it, get it together somehow
Gonna get it, get it together and flower
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
We’re gonna get it, get it together I know
Gonna get it, get it together and flow
Gonna get it, get it together and go
Up, and up, and up
Oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh, whoa, oh
Oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh, whoa, oh
Fixing up a car to drive in it again
When you’re in pain, when you think you’ve had enough
Don’t ever give up
Dont ever give up
Believe in love... |
Three, two, one
Sometimes I just cant take it
Sometimes I just cant take it and it isnt alright
Im not gonna make it
And I think my shoes untied
Im like a broken record

Drocer nekorb a ekil mi

Youve got me singin every second, dancin any hour
Oh yeah, youve got a higher power
Youre once in any lifetime
Im going a million miles an hour
When for so long Id been down on my knees
Then your love song saved me over and over
For so long Id been down on my knees
Til your love song floats me on
Ee-oh, oh-oh |
Oh no, I see
A spider web is tangled up with me
And I lost my head
And thought of all the stupid things Id said
Oh no, whats this?
A spider web, and Im caught in the middle
So I turned to run
And thought of all the stupid things Id done
And I, I never meant to cause you trouble
And I, I never meant to do you wrong
And I, well, if I ever caused you trouble
And oh no, I never meant to do you harm
Oh no, I see
A spider web, and its me in the middle
So I twist and turn
But here am I in my little bubble
Singing that I never meant to cause you trouble
I never meant to do you wrong
And I, well, if I ever caused you trouble
Oh no, I never meant to do you harm
They spun a web for me
They spun a web for me
They spun a web for me |
I could be you, you could be me
Two raindrops in the same sea
You could be me, I could be you
Two angles of the same view
And we share the same blood
Comme deux gouttes d’eau
On se ressemble
Comme provenant de la même mère
Comme deux ruisseaux
Qui se rassemblent
Pour faire les grandes rivières
And we share the same blood
Yeah, we share the same blood
And we share the same blood
Yeah, we share the same blood
Music is the weapon, music is the weapon of the future
Music is the weapon, music is the weapon of the future
Music is the weapon, music is the weapon of the future
Same fucking blood
Same fucking blood |
Been rusting in the rubble
Running to a faint
Need a brand new coat of paint
Found myself in trouble
Thinking about what aint
Never gonna be a saint
Saying float like an eagle
Fall like the rain
Pouring to put out the pain
Oh again and again
Now Im hyp, hypnotised
Yeah I trip, when I look in your eyes
Oh Im hyp, hypnotized
Yeah I slip and Im mesmerized
Its easy to be lethal
Im learning from the news
Its a guidebook for the blues
Saying its the very same steeple
People want to choose
They just see it from different views
And threading the needle
Fixing my flame
Oh now Im moved to exclaim
Oh again, and again
How Im hyp, hypnotised
Yeah I trip, when I look in your eyes
Oh Im hyp, hypnotized
Yeah I lift and Im mesmerized
Oh again, and again
Oh Im hyp, hypnotised
Yeah I lift to a permanent high
Oh Im hyp, hypnotised
It was dark
Now its sunrise |
One, two, three
Fish fell out of water
Bird stuck on the ground
Chaos giving orders
Everything is upside down
The whole world on a flight path
I wonder where theyll go, ah
Troubles on the outside, I know
But now, all I can think about is you
All I can think about is you
If all that Im on earth to do
Is solo, then what a lone poor shoe
I want to walk in a two
Go!
Its all I can
Its all I can
Its all I can
Its all I can do
Its all I can do
Everything is falling all around you
Its all I can do
All I can think about is you
Its all I can
All I can think about is you
Love is the only
Thing left thats true |
In my place, in my place
Were lines that I couldnt change
I was lost, oh yeah
And I was lost, I was lost
Crossed lines I shouldnt have crossed
I was lost, oh yeah
Yeah, how long must you wait for it?
Yeah, how long must you pay for it?
Yeah, how long must you wait for it?
For it
I was scared, I was scared
Tired and underprepared
But I wait for it
And if you go, if you go
And leave me down here on my own
Then Ill wait for you, yeah
Yeah, how long must you wait for it?
Yeah, how long must you pay for it?
Yeah, how long must you wait for it?
For it
Sing it please, please, please
Come back, come sing to me
To me, me
Come on and sing it out
Now, now
Come on and sing it out
To me, me
Come back and sing
In my place, in my place
Were lines that I couldnt change
I was lost, oh yeah
Oh, yeah |
It was a long and dark December
From the rooftops I remember
There was snow, white snow
Clearly I remember
From the windows they were watching
While we froze down below
When the futures architectured
By a carnival of idiots on show
Youd better lie low
If you love me, wont you let me know?
Was a long and dark December
When the banks became cathedrals
And a fox became God
Priests clutched onto bibles
Hollowed out to fit their rifles
And a cross was held aloft
Bury me in armor
When Im dead and hit the ground
My nerves are poles that unfroze
And if you love me, wont you let me know?
I dont want to be a soldier
Who the captain of some sinking ship
Would stow, far below
So if you love me, whyd you let me go?
I took my love down to Violet Hill
There we sat in snow
All that time she was silent still
So if you love me, wont you let me know?
If you love me, wont you let me know? |
Gi nwa nke chukwu, gini ka ina ekwu

I tried my best to be just like
The other boys in school
I tried my best to get it right
And died at every duel
This mountainside is suicide
This dream will never work
Still the sign upon my headstone, write
A champion of the world
Oh oh-oh
Oh oh-oh-oh oh oh
I tried my best to stay alight
Fly like a firework
I tried my best at taking flight
But my rocket ship reversed
Oh, referee, dont stop the fight
Everyone can see Im hurt
But Ill stand before conquistadors
Till Im champion of the world
And when I sail
Im sailing west
Knowing I might fail
But still Im hoping for the best
And in my dreams
Onto my chest
Shell pin the colours and say
I wandered the whole wide world but
Baby, youre the best
Lo lo-lo-lo lo oh
Ee-yo-ee-yo-ee-yo-ee-yeah
Lo lo-lo-lo lo
So Im flying on my bicycle
Heading upwards from the Earth
I am jumping with no parachute
Out into the universe
I have E.T. on my bicycle
Because giving up wont work
Now Im riding on my rocketship
And Im champion of the world |
A flock of birds
Hovering above
Just a flock of birds
Thats how you think of love
And I always
Look up to the sky
Pray before the dawn
Cause they fly always
Sometimes they arrive
Sometimes they are gone
They fly on
A flock of birds
Hovering above
Into smoke Im turned and rise
Following them up
Still I always
Look up to the sky
Pray before the dawn
Cause they fly away
One minute they arrive
Next you know theyre gone
They fly on
Fly on
So fly on, ride through
Maybe one day Ill fly next to you
Fly on, ride through
Maybe one day I can fly with you
Fly on
Fly on
Fly on |
Got a tattoo that said together thru life
Carved in your name with my pocket knife
And you wonder when you wake up, will it be alright? Ooooh ooh
Feels like theres something broken inside
All I know
All I know
Is that Im lost
Whenever you go
All I know
Is that I love you so
So much that it hurts
Got a tattoo and the pains alright, oooh oooh
Just wanted a way of keeping you inside
All I know
All I know
Is that Im lost
In your fire below
All I know
Is that I love you so
So much that it hurts
I see the road begin to climb
I see your stars begin to shine
I see your colors
And Im dying of thirst
All I know is that I love you so
So much that it hurts
So much that it hurts
So much that it hurts |
So I look in your direction
But you pay me no attention, do you?
I know you dont listen to me
Cause you say you see straight through me, dont you?
But on and on
From the moment I wake, til the moment I sleep
Ill be there by your side, just you try and stop me
Ill be waiting in line, just to see if you care
Oh, did you want me to change?
Well, I changed for good
And I want you to know
That youll always get your way
I wanted to say
Dont you shiver
Shiver
Sing it loud and clear
Ill always be waiting for you
So you know how much I need you
But you never even see me, do you?
And is this my final chance of getting you?
But on and on
From the moment I wake, til the moment I sleep
Ill be there by your side, just you try and stop me
Ill be waiting in line
Just to see if you care, if you care
Oh, oh, did you want me to change?
Well, I changed for good
And I want you to know
That youll always get your way
I wanted to say
Dont you shiver
Dont you shiver
Sing it loud and clear
Ill always be waiting for you
Yeah, Ill always be waiting for you
Yeah, Ill always be waiting for you
Yeah, Ill always be waiting for you
For you I will always be waiting
And its you I see, but you dont see me
And its you I hear so loud and so clear
I sing it loud and clear
And Ill always be waiting for you
So I look in your direction
But you pay me no attention
And you know how much I need ya
But you never even see me |
Oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
Once upon a time, somebody ran
Somebody ran away saying fast as I can
Ive got to go, Ive got to go
Once upon a time, we fell apart
Youre holding in your hands the two halves of my heart
Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
Oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
Once upon a time, we burned bright
Now all we ever seem to do is fight
On and on
And on and on and on
Once upon a time on the same side
Once upon a time on the same side
In the same game
And whyd you have to go?
Have to go and throw water on my flame
I couldve been a princess, youd be a king
Couldve had a castle, and worn a ring
But no, you let me go
I couldve been a princess, youd be a king
Couldve had a castle, and worn a ring
But no, you let me go
You stole my star
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la
You stole my star
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
Oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
Oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
Cause you really hurt me
No, you really hurt me
Cause you really hurt me
No, you really hurt me
Cause you really hurt me
Oh, you really hurt me, oh
Cause you really hurt me
Oh, you really hurt me |
What can I tell you?
When Im with you, Im walking on air
Watching you sleeping there, yeah
And what cant I get through?
When for everyone, everywhere
Youre answering every prayer
And when youre riding a wave
Oh, wont you ride that wave to me?
When youre setting your sail
Oh, can I be your seventh sea?
When youre riding a wave
Oh, when youre riding a wave
Cause when Im hurt
Then Ill go to your church
Cause when Im hurt
Then Ill go to your church
When youre riding a wave
Oh, wont you ride that wave to me?
When youre riding a wave
أبي يا الله يا قادر، لماذا تركتني؟
أبي يا الله يا قادر
حرية يا الله
محبة يا الله
I worship in your church, baby, always
I worship in your church, all the seven days
I praise and praise |
They were sitting
They were sitting on the strawberry swing
Every moment was so precious
They were sitting
They were talking on the strawberry swing
Everybody was for fighting
Wouldnt wanna waste a thing
Cold, cold water
Bring me round
Now my feet wont touch the ground
Cold, cold water
What ya say?
When its such
Its such a perfect day
Its such a perfect day
I remember
We were walking up to strawberry swing
I cant wait til the morning
Wouldnt wanna change a thing
People moving all the time
Inside a perfectly straight line
Dont you wanna just curve away
When its such
Its such a perfect day
Its such a perfect day
Now the sky could be blue
I dont mind
Without you its a waste of time
Could be blue
I dont mind
Without you its a waste of time
Well, the sky could be blue
Could be grey
Without you Im just miles away
Well, the sky could be blue
I dont mind
Without you its a waste of time |
I think of you
I havent slept
I think I do, but
I dont forget
My body moves
Goes where I will
But though I try
My heart stays still
It never moves
Just wont be led
And so my mouth waters to be fed
And youre always in my head
Youre always in my head
Youre always in my head
Youre always in my head
Youre always in my head
Always in my
Always in my
This, I guess
Is to tell you youre chosen out
From the rest |
Honey, you are a rock
Upon which I stand
And I come here to talk
I hope you understand
The green eyes
Yeah, the spotlight shines upon you
And how could anybody deny you
I came here with a load
And it feels so much lighter
Now I met you
And, honey, you should know
That I could never go on without you
Green eyes
Honey, you are the sea
Upon which I float
And I came here to talk
I think you should know
That green eyes
Youre the one that I wanted to find
And anyone who tried to deny you
Must be out of their mind
Because I came here with a load
And it feels so much lighter since I met you
And, honey, you should know that I could never go on without you
Green eyes
Green eyes
Honey, you are a rock
Upon which I stand |
In the darkness before the dawn
In the swirling of the storm
When Im rolling with the punches and hope is gone
Leave a light, a light on
Millions of miles from home
In the swirling swimming on
When Im rolling with the thunder
But bleed from thorns
Leave a light, a light on
Leave a light, a light on
Leave a light, a light on
Leave a light, a light on
In the darkness before the dawn
In the darkness before the dawn
Leave a light, a light on
Leave a light, a light on |
He said Im gonna buy this place and burn it down
Im gonna put it six feet underground
He said Im gonna buy this place and watch it fall
Stand here beside me, baby, in the crumbling walls
Oh, Im gonna buy this place and start a fire
Stand here until I fill all your hearts desires
Because Im gonna buy this place and see it burn
And do back the things it did to you
In return
Oo-oh, Oo-oh
Oo-oh, Oo-oh
Said Im gonna buy a gun and start a war
If you can tell me something worth fighting for
Oh, and Im gonna buy this place, is what I said
Blame it upon a rush of blood to the head
Honey, all the movements youre starting to make
See me crumble and fall on my face
And I know the mistakes that I made
See it all disappear without trace
And they call as they beckon you on
They say start as you mean to go on
Start as you mean to go on
He said Im gonna buy this place and see it go
Stand here beside me, baby, watch the orange glow
Some will laugh and some just sit and cry
But you just sit down there and you wonder why
So Im gonna buy a gun and start a war
If you can tell me something worth fighting for
And Im gonna buy this place, is what I said
Blame it upon a rush of blood to the head
Oh, to the head, oh
Honey, all the movements youre starting to make
See me crumble and fall on my face
And I know the mistakes that I made
See it all disappear without a trace
And they call as they beckon you on
They say start as you mean to go on
As you mean to go on
As you mean to go on
So meet me by the bridge
Oh, meet me by the lane
When am I going to see
That pretty face again?
Meet me on the road
Meet me where I said
Blame it all upon
A rush of blood to the head |
A flock of birds
Hovering above
Just a flock of birds
Thats how you think of love
And I always look up to the sky
Pray before the dawn
Cause they fly away
Sometimes they arrive
Sometimes they are gone
They fly on
A flock of birds
Hovering above
Into smoke Im turned and rise
Following em up
Still, I always look up to the sky
Pray before the dawn
Cause they fly away
One minute they arrive
Next you know, theyre gone
They fly on
Fly on
Oh ohhhh
So fly on, ride through
Maybe one day Ill fly next to you
Fly on, ride through
Maybe one day I can fly with you
Fly on
Fly on
Fly on
Dont ever let go
Dont ever let go
Dont ever let go
Dont ever let go |
Trouble in town
Because they cut my brother down
Because my sister cant wear her crown
Theres trouble, theres trouble in town
Blood on the beat
Oh my goodness, theres blood on the beat
Law of the jungle or the law of the street
Theres blood on, theres blood on the beat
And I get no shelter
And I get no peace
And I never get released
Trouble in town
Because they hung my Brother Brown
Because their system just keep you down
Theres trouble, theres trouble in town
And I get no shelter
And I get no peace
And I just get more police, eh

Bones, sinking like stones
All that we fought for
Homes, places we’ve grown
All of us are done for
We live in a beautiful world
Yeah, we do, yeah, we do
We live in a beautiful world
Bones, sinking like stones

Homes, places we’ve grown
All of us are done for
And we live in a beautiful world

Yeah, we do, yeah, we do
We live in a beautiful world
Oh, all that I know
Theres nothing here to run from
Cause yeah, everybody heres got somebody to lean on |
For a second, I was in control
I had it once, I lost it though
And all along the fire below
Would rise
And I wish you could have let me know
Whats really going on below
Ive lost you now, you let me go
But one last time
Tell me you love me
If you dont, then lie
Oh, lie to me
Remember once upon a time
When I was yours and you were blind
The fire would sparkle in your eyes
And mine
So tell me you love me
If you dont then lie
Oh, lie to me
Just tell me you love me
If you dont then lie
Oh, lie to me
If you dont then lie
Oh, lie to me
And call it true
Call it true love
Call it true
Call it true love |
I turn the music up, I got my records on
I shut the world outside until the lights come on
Maybe the streets alight, maybe the trees are gone
I feel my heart start beating to my favorite song
And all the kids they dance, all the kids all night
Until Monday morning feels another life
I turn the music up, Im on a roll this time
And Heaven is in sight
I turn the music up, I got my records on
From underneath the rubble, sing a rebel song
Dont want to see another generation drop
Id rather be a comma than a full stop
Maybe Im in the black, maybe Im on my knees
Maybe Im in the gap between the two trapezes
But my heart is beating and my pulses start
Cathedrals in my heart
As we saw, oh, this light
I swear you, emerge blinking into
To tell me its alright
As we soar walls
Every siren is a symphony
And every tears a waterfall
Is a waterfall, oh
Is a waterfall, oh-oh-oh
Is a, is a waterfall
Every tear
Is a waterfall, oh-oh-oh
So you can hurt, hurt me bad
But still, Ill raise the flag
Oh, it was a wa-wa-wa-wa-waterfall
A wa-wa-wa-wa-waterfall
Every tear, every tear
Every teardrop is a waterfall
Every tear, every tear
Every teardrop is a waterfall
Every tear, every tear
Every teardrop is a waterfall
Every tear, every tear
Every teardrop is a waterfall
Every tear, every tear
Every teardrop is a waterfall |
Ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
Stole a key
Took a car downtown where the lost boys meet
Took a car downtown and took what they offered me
To set me free
I saw the lights go down at the end of the scene
Saw the lights go down and standing in front of me
Ooh-ooh-ooh
In my scarecrow dreams
When they smash my heart into smithereens
Be a bright red rose come bursting through concrete
Be a cartoon heart
Light a fire, a fire, a spark
Light a fire, a flame in my heart
We’ll run wild
We’ll be glowing in the dark
Ooh-ooh-ooh
We’ll be glowing in the dark
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ah-wooh
All the boys, all the girls
All that matters in the world
All the boys, all the girls
All the madness that occurs
All the highs, all the lows
As the room a-spinning goes
We’ll run riot
We’ll be glowing in the dark
Ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ah
So we’ll soar
Luminous and wired
We’ll be glowing in the dark |
How long before I get in?
Before it starts, before I begin?
How long before you decide?
Before I know what it feels like?
Where to, where do I go?
If you never try, then youll never know
How long do I have to climb
Up on the side of this mountain of mine?
Look up, I look up at night
Planets are moving at the speed of light
Climb up, up in the trees
Every chance that you get
Is a chance you seize
How long am I gonna stand
With my head stuck under the sand?
Ill start before I can stop
Before I see things the right way up
All that noise, and all that sound
All those places I got found
And birds go flying at the speed of sound
To show you how it all began
Birds came flying from the underground
If you could see it then youd understand
Ideas that youll never find
All the inventors could never design
The buildings that you put up
Japan and China all lit up
The sign that I couldnt read
Or a light that I couldnt see
Some things you have to believe
But others are puzzles, puzzling me
All that noise, and all that sound
All those places I got found
And birds go flying at the speed of sound
To show you how it all began
Birds came flying from the underground
If you could see it then youd understand
Ah when you see it then youll understand
All those signs, I knew what they meant
Some things you can invent
Some get made, and some get sent
Birds go flying at the speed of sound
To show you how it all began
Birds came flying from the underground
If you could see it then youd understand
Ah, when you see it then youll understand |
A warning sign
I missed the good part then I realized
I started looking and the bubble burst
I started looking for excuses
Come on in
Ive gotta tell you what a state Im in
Ive gotta tell you in my loudest tones
That I started looking for a warning sign
When the truth is I miss you
Yeah, the truth is that I miss you so
A warning sign
It came back to haunt me and I realized
That you were an island and I passed you by
And you were an island to discover
Come on in
Ive gotta tell you what a state Im in
Ive gotta tell you in my loudest tones
That I started looking for a warning sign
When the truth is
I miss you
Yeah the truth is
That I miss you so
And Im tired
I should not have let you go
So I crawl back into your open arms
Yes I crawl back into your open arms
And I crawl back into your open arms
Yes I crawl back into your open arms |
I know its over before she says
I know the falls that the water face
I know its over, an ocean awaits for a storm
The sun on snow, rivers in rain
Crystal ball can foresee a change
And I know its over, a parting of ways
And its done
But didnt we have fun?
Dont say it was all a waste
Didnt we have fun?
Oh-oooh-ooh
From the top of the world, top of the waves
We said forever, forever always
We could have been lost, we would have been saved
Oh, I
Now were stopping the world, stopping its spin
But, come on, dont give up, dont say we give in
Dont say its over, dont say were done
Oh, didnt we have fun?
Woo-ooh-ooh-ooh
Woo-ooh-ooh-ooh
Oh, didnt we have fun?
I know its over before she says
Know someone else has taken your place
I know its over, Icarus says to the Sun
The sword sinks in, lightning strikes
And two force, two forces collide
And fight til its over, fight til its done
Ah-ah-ah
But didnt we have fun?
Dont say it was all a waste
Didnt we have fun?
Oh-oooh-ooh
From the top of the world, top of the waves
We said forever, forever always
We could have been lost, we would have been saved
Oh, I
Now were stopping the world, stopped it in its tracks
But nothings too broken to find a way back
So before its over, before you run
Ah, didnt we have fun?
Cause you and me
We were always meant to, always meant to be
We were always meant to, always meant to
You and me
We were always meant to, always meant to be
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh, didnt we have fun?
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh, didnt we have fun?
But then, maybe we could again |
Come on, oh my star is fading
And I swerve out of control
If I, if Id only waited
Id not be stuck here in this hole
Come here, oh my star is fading
And I swerve out of control
And I swear I waited and waited
Ive got to get out of this hole
But time is on your side
Its on your side now
Not pushing you down and all around
Its no cause for concern
Come on, oh my star is fading
And I see no chance of release
And I know Im dead on the surface
But I am screaming underneath
And time is on your side
Its on your side now
Not pushing you down and all around
Its no cause for concern
Stuck on the end of this ball and chain
And Im on my way back down again
Stood on a bridge, tied to a noose
Sick to the stomach
You can say what you mean
But it wont change a thing
Im sick of the secrets
Stood on the edge
Tied to a noose
And you came along and you cut me loose
You came along and you cut me loose
You came along and you cut me loose |
We sat on a roof, named every star
Shared every bruise and showed every scar
Hope has its proof put your hand in mine
Life has a beautiful, crazy design
And time seemed to say
Forget the world and its weight
And here I just wanna stay
Amazing day, amazing day
We sat on a roof, named every star
You showed me a place where you can be who you are
And the view; the whole Milky Way
In your eyes, I drifted away
And in your arms, I just wanna sway
Amazing day, amazing day
Amazing day, amazing day
Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh, oooh
And I asked
Can the birds in poetry chime?
Can there be breaks in the chaos sometimes?
Oh thanks God, must’ve heard when I prayed
Cause now I always want to feel this way
Amazing day, amazing day
Amazing day, amazing day
Yeah, today |
Oh, I think I landed
In a world I hadnt seen
When Im feeling ordinary
When I dont know what I mean
Oh, I think I landed
Where there are miracles at work
For the thirst and for the hunger
Come the conference of birds
Saying its true, its not what it seems
Leave your broken windows open
And in the light just streams
And you get a head, a head full of dreams
You can see the change you wanted
Be what you want to be
And you get a head, a head full of dreams
Into life, I’ve just been spoken
With a head full, a head full of dreams
Oh, I think I landed
Where there are miracles at work
When you got me open-handed
When you got me lost for words
I sing oh-oh-oh
A head full of dreams
A head full of dreams
Into life I’ve just been woken
With a head full, a head full of dreams |
Coloratura
We fell in through the clouds
And everyone before us is there welcoming us now
Its the end of death and doubt
And loneliness is out
Coloratura
The place we dreamed about
The melodies inside yourself and love come pouring out
And everyones allowed
Were feathered by the crowd
And up there in the heavеns
Galileo and those pining for the moon
Know its a slow burn
Through Pioneer and Hеlix
Oumuamua, Heliopause and Neptune
Were a slow burning tune
But well get there, so for now
In this crazy world, I do
I just want you
In the end its all about
The love youre sending out
And up there in the heavens
The explorers whove all gathered by balloon
Saw the world turn
Through Voyager, Callisto, Calliope, Betelgeuse, the Neon Moons
Were a slow burning tune
But well touch down soon, so will you
And in this crazy world, I do
I just want you
And up there in the heavens
Galileo saw reflections of us too
Pluribus unum, unus mundus
All the satellites imbue
The purple, yellow, green, red, orange and the blue
Oh its a crazy world, its true
Sing it out
Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh
And in this crazy world, I do
I just want
In this crazy world, its true
I just want you
Poets prophesy up in the blue
Together, thats how well make it through |
Christmas night, another fight
Tears, we cried a flood
Got all kinds of poison in
Of poison in my blood
I took my feet, to Oxford Street
Tryna right a wrong
Just walk away, those windows say
But I cant believe shes gone
When youre still waiting for the snow to fall
Doesnt really feel like Christmas at all
Up above candles on air flicker
Oh, they flicker and they float
But Im up here holding on
To all those chandeliers of hope
Like some drunken Elvis singing
I go singing out of tune
Saying how I always loved you darling
And I always will
Oh, when youre still waiting for the snow to fall
Doesnt really feel like Christmas at all
Still waiting for the snow to fall
It doesnt really feel like Christmas at all
Those Christmas lights
Light up the street
Down where the sea and city meet
May all your troubles soon be gone
Oh, Christmas lights, keep shining on
Those Christmas lights
Light up the street
Maybe theyll bring her back to me
Then all my troubles will be gone
Oh, Christmas lights, keep shining on
Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh, Christmas lights
Light up the street
Light up the fireworks in me
May all your troubles soon be gone
Those Christmas lights, keep shining on |
Where do we go? Nobody knows
Ive got to say Im on my way down
God give me style and give me grace
God put a smile upon my face
Where do we go to draw the line?
Ive got to say I wasted all your time, oh, honey, honey

Cry, cry, cry, baby
Cry, cry, cry
In a book about the world
Called The Luminous Things
There are trees and flowers glowing
While Jizo Bodhisattva sings
When you cry, cry, cry, baby
When you cry, cry, cry
When you cry, cry, cry, baby
Ill be by your side
Dont want us to hurt each other
Or cause each other pain
Dont want to fear what we dont know
Were in this together, baby

So Ill never, ever, ever let you go
When you cry, cry, cry, baby
When you cry, cry, cry
When you cry, cry, cry, baby
Ill be by your side
Oh, yeah, yeah

For your miracles outnumber
All the stars out in the sky |
Just because Im losing
Doesnt mean Im lost
Doesnt mean Ill stop
Doesnt mean Im across
Just because Im hurting
Doesnt mean Im hurt
Doesnt mean I didnt get what I deserved
No better and no worse
I just got lost
Every river that I tried to cross
Every door I ever tried was locked
Oh and Im just waiting till the shine wears off
You might be a big fish
In a little pond
Doesnt mean youve won
Cause along may come
A bigger one
And youll be lost
Every river that you tried to cross
Every gun you ever held went off
Oh and Im just waiting till the firing stopped
Oh and Im just waiting till the shine wears off
Oh and Im just waiting till the shine wears off
Oh and Im just waiting till the shine wears off
Oh and Im just waiting till the shine wears off
Oh and Im just waiting till the shine wears off |
Oh, brother, I cant, I cant get through
Ive been trying hard to reach you
‘Cause I dont know what to do
Oh, brother, I cant believe its true
Im so scared about the future and I wanna talk to you
Oh, I wanna talk to you
You could take a picture of something you see
In the future, where will I be?
You could climb a ladder up to the sun
Or write a song nobody had sung
Or do
Something thats never been done
Are you lost or incomplete?
Do you feel like a puzzle
You cant find your missing piece?
Tell me how you feel
Well, I feel like theyre talking in a language I dont speak
And theyre talking it to me
So, you take a picture of something you see
In the future, where will I be?
You could climb a ladder up to the sun
Or write a song nobody had sung
Or do
Something thats never been done
Do
Something thats never been done
So, you dont know where youre going and you wanna talk
And you feel like youre going where youve been before
Youll tell anyone wholl listen, but you feel ignored
Nothings really making any sense at all
Lets talk, lets talk, lets talk, lets talk |
بنی آدم اعضای یکدیگرند
که در آفرینش ز یک گوهرند
چو عضوی بدرد آورد روزگار،
دگر عضوها را نماند قرار
تو کز محنت دیگران بیغمی،
نشاید که نامت نهند آدمی

Away over on the rooftops, lets get married
All summer, we just hurried
So come over, just be patient and dont worry
So come over, just be patient and dont worry

Look at earth from outer space, everyone must find their place
Give me time and give me space, give me real, dont give me fake
Give me strength, reserve, control, give me heart and give me soul
Give me time, give us a kiss, tell me your own politik
Open up your eyes, open up your eyes
Open up your eyes, open up your eyes
Give me one, cause one is best, and in confusion, confidence
Give me peace of mind and trust, and dont forget the rest of us
Give me strength, reserve, control, give me heart and give me soul
Wounds that heal and cracks that fix, tell me your own politik
Open up your eyes, open up your eyes
Open up your eyes, open up your eyes
Just open up your eyes...
And give me love over
Love over, love over this
And give me love over
Love over, love over this |
We were just about to lose our home
Diamonds ate the radio
Moving in the dead of night
We took photographs just some just so
History has some to know
We were moving at the speed of flight
Kids cry
If you want to
Thats alright
If you want to
Hold me
Hold me tight
Just an alien
We were hovering without a home
Millions are UFO
Hovering in hope some scope tonight
Sees the light and says
Fly if you want to
Thats alright
But if you want to
Call me
Call this line
Just an alien
Just an alien
Oh, we just want to get home again
Tell your leader
Sir or maam
We come in peace
We mean no harm
Somewhere out there
In the unknown
All the E.T.s are phoning home
Watching my life
On the skyline
Crossing your eyes
For a lifetime
Just an alien
Moving target
Target movement
Oh, we just want to get home again
A patch, a corner
Of the spacetime
Just an alien
Turning toward it
Turning pages
Over Asia
Crossing ages
Just an alien |
Oh, angel sent from up above
You know you make my world light up
When I was down, when I was hurt
You came to lift me up
Life is a drink and loves a drug
Oh now I think I must be miles up
When I was a river dried up
You came to rain a flood
Oh-I-Oh-I-Oh-I
Got me feeling drunk and high
So high, so high
Oh-I-Oh-I-Oh-I
Now I’m feeling drunk and high
So high, so high
Feeling drunk and high
Feeling drunk and high
So high
Oh, angel sent from up above
I feel it coursing through my blood
Life is a drink, your loves about
To make the stars come out
Oh-I-Oh-I-Oh-I
Got me feeling drunk and high
So high, so high
Oh-I-Oh-I-Oh-I
Now I’m feeling drunk and high
So high, so high
Feeling drunk and high
Feeling drunk and high
So high

Been around the world, the wonders to view
Been around the world, looking for someone like you
Pyramids try, Babylon too
But the beautifullest treasures lie in the deepest blue
So I never say die, aim never untrue
Im never so high as when Im with you
And there isnt a fire that I wouldnt walk through
My army of one is gonna fight for you
Been around the world, universe too
Ive been around flying, baby, theres nothing I wouldnt do
Tanzaku stars, lasso the moon
And be standing there beside you
Right when the storm comes through
Cause I never say die, aim never untrue
Never so high as when Im with you
And there isnt a fire that I wouldnt walk through
My army of one is gonna fight for you
My army of one is gonna fall for you, yeah
Cause you reign
All cause you reign
All cause you reign
My army of one is gonna call it through
Saying my heart is my gun, army of one
Yeah my heart is my gun, army of one
Its my only weapon, army of one
Saying my heart is my gun, army of one |
Trying hard to speak
And fighting with my weak hand
Driven to distraction
Its all part of the plan
When something is broken
And you try to fix it
Trying to repair it
Anyway you can
I dive in at the deep end
You become my best friend
I wanna love you
But I dont know if I can
I know something is broken
And Im trying to fix it
Trying to repair it
Anyway I can
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
You and me are floating on a tidal wave
Together
You and me are drifting into outer space
And singing
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
You and me are floating on a tidal wave
Together
You and me are drifting into outer space
You and me are floating on a tidal wave
Together
You and me are drifting into outer space
And singing
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh |
Been standing in the corner, studying the lights
The dreaming of escape will keep you up at night
But someone had put the flares up and got me in the rays
So I guess I’d better stay
‘Uh uh no come on’ you say
Its a fools gold thunder
Its just a warring rain
Dont let the fears just start What if
I won’t see you again’
Around here you never want to sleep all night
So start falling in love, start the riot and
Come on rage with me
We don’t need words
And we’ll be birds
Got to make our own key
Only got this moment
You and me
Guilty of nothing, but geography
Come on and raise it
Come on and raise this noise for the million people
Who got not one voice
Come on it’s not over if you mean it, say loud
Come on all for love, out from the underground
Away with me
We don’t need words
Close your eyes and see
And well be birds, flying free
Holding on in the mystery
Fearless, fearless, fearless
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Fearless together
You said ‘we’ll go through this together’
When you fly won’t you
Won’t you take me too?
In this world so cruel
I think you’re so cool |
Late night watching TV
Used to be you here beside me
Used to be your arms around me
Your body on my body
When the world means nothing to me
Anothers arms, anothers arms
When the pain just rips right through me
Anothers arms, anothers arms
Late night watching TV
Used to be you here beside me
Is there someone there to reach me?
Someone there to find me?
When the pain just rips right through me
Anothers arms, anothers arms
And thats just torture to me
Anothers arms, anothers arms
Pull yourself into me
Anothers arms, anothers arms
When the world means nothing to me
Anothers arms, anothers arms
Got to pull you close into me
Anothers arms, anothers arms
Pull yourself right through me
Anothers arms, anothers arms
Late night watching TV
Wish that you were here beside me
Wish that your arms were around me
Your body on my body |
Just because Im losing
Doesnt mean Im lost
Doesnt mean Ill stop
Doesnt mean Im across
Just because Im hurting
Doesnt mean Im hurt
Doesn’t mean I didn’t get what I deserved
No better and no worse
I just got lost
Every river that I tried to cross
Every door I ever tried was locked
Oh and Im just waiting til the shine wears off
You might be a big fish
In a little pond
Doesnt mean youve won
Cause along may come
A bigger one
And youll be lost
Every river that you tried to cross
Every gun you ever held went off
Oh and Im just waiting til the firing stopped
Oh and Im just waiting til the shine wears off
(Geah, just waiting til the—
Yeah, uh-huh, I gotchu, uh, yeah)
With the same sword they knight you
They gon good-night you with
Shit, thats only half if they like you
That aint even the half what they might do
Dont believe me, ask Michael
See Martin, see Malcolm
See Biggie, see Pac, see success and its outcome
See Jesus, see Judas
See Caesar, see Brutus, see success is like suicide
Suicide, its a suicide
If you succeed, prepare to be crucified
Media meddles, niggas sue you, you settle
Every step you take, they remind you youre ghetto
So its tough being Bobby Brown
To be Bobby then, you have to be Bobby now
And the question is, is to have had and lost
Better than not having at all? Because Im—
Oh and Im just waiting til the shine wears off
Oh and Im just waiting til the shine wears off |
Steal my heart and hold my tongue
I feel my time, my time has come
Let me in, unlock the door
Ive never felt this way before
And the wheels just keep on turning
The drummer begins to drum
I dont know which way Im going
I dont know which way Ive come
Hold my head inside your hands
I need someone who understands
I need someone, someone who hears
For you, Ive waited all these years
For you Id wait til kingdom come
Until my day, my day is done
And say youll come and set me free
Just say youll wait, youll wait for me
In your tears and in your blood
In your fire and in your flood
I hear you laugh, I heard you sing
I wouldnt change a single thing
And the wheels just keep on turning
The drummers begin to drum
I dont know which way Im going
I dont know what Ive become
For you Id wait til kingdom come
Until my day, my day is done
And say youll come and set me free
Just say youll wait, youll wait for me
Just say youll wait, youll wait for me |

And Im in need
Feel that ocean
Swallowing me
Head is hanging
So sorrowfully

On that morning
Scared and blue
When Im hungry
And thirsty too
Send this raindrop
Down to the sea
Oh Lord
Come shine your light on me
Oh, shine your light
Oh, shine a light
And I know
That in the darkness Im alright
See theres no sun rising
But inside Im free
Cause the Lord will shine a light for me

Sing it now

I wanna live life and never be cruel
I wanna live life and be good to you
And I wanna fly and never come down
And live my life and have friends around
We never change, do we? no, no
We never learn, do we?
So I wanna live in a wooden house

And I wanna fly and never come down
And live my life and have friends around

So I wanna live in a wooden house
Where making more friends would be easy
I wanna live where the sun comes out |
I awake to find no peace of mind
I said, How do you live as a fugitive
Down here, where I cannot see so clear?
I said, What do I know?
Show me the right way to go
And the spies came out of the water
But youre feeling so bad cause you know
That the spies hide out in every corner
But you cant touch them, no
Cause theyre all spies
Theyre all spies
I awake to see that no one is free
Were all fugitives, look at the way we live
Down here, I cannot sleep from fear, no
I said, Which way do I turn?
Oh, I forget everything I learn
And the spies came out of the water
And youre feeling so bad cause you know
That the spies hide out in every corner
But you cant touch them, no
Cause theyre all spies
Theyre all spies
And if we dont hide here
Theyre gonna find us
And if we dont hide now
Theyre gonna catch us where we sleep
Ah, and if we dont hide here
Theyre gonna find us
And the spies came out of the water
But youre feeling so good cause you know
That those spies hide out in every corner
They can’t touch you, no
Cause theyre just spies
Theyre just spies
Theyre just spies
Theyre just spies
Theyre just spies |
Written in graffiti on a bridge in a park
Do you ever get the feeling that you’re missing the mark?
Its so cold, its so cold
Its so cold, its so cold
Written up in marker on a factory sign:
I struggle with the feeling that my life isn’t mine
Its so cold, its so cold
Its so cold, its so cold
See the arrow they shot trying to tear us apart
Took the fire from my belly and the beat from my heart
Still, I won’t let go
Still, I won’t let go
Of you
Cause you do
Oh, you use your heart as a weapon
And it hurts like heaven
On every street, every car, every surface, a name
Tonight, the streets are ours
And we’re writing and saying
Don’t let em take control
No, we won’t let em take control
Yes, I feel a little bit nervous
Yes, I feel nervous and I cannot relax
How come they’re out to get us?
How come they’re out when they don’t know the facts?
So on a concrete canvas under cover of dark
On a concrete canvas, I’ll go making my mark
Armed with a spray can soul
I’ll be armed with a spray can soul
And you
Oh, you
Cause you use your heart as a weapon
And it hurts like heaven
Ohh oh, ohh oh
Yeah, its true
When you use your heart as a weapon
Then it hurts like heaven
Oh, it hurts like heaven |
What if there was no light?
Nothing wrong, nothing right?
What if there was no time?
And no reason or rhyme?
What if you should decide
That you dont want me there by your side?
That you dont want me there in your life?
What if I got it wrong?
And no poem or song
Could put right what I got wrong
Or make you feel I belong
What if you should decide
That you dont want me there by your side?
That you dont want me there in your life?
Oooooh, thats right
Lets take a breath, jump over the side
Oooooh, thats right
How can you know it if you dont even try?
Oooooh, thats right
Every step that you take
Could be your biggest mistake
It could bend or it could break
But thats the risk that you take
What if you should decide
That you dont want me there in your life?
That you dont want me there by your side?
Oooooh, thats right
Lets take a breath, jump over the side
Oooooh, thats right
How can you know it when you dont even try?
Oooooh, thats right
Oh, Oooooh, thats right
Lets take a breath, jump over the side
Oooooh, thats right
You know that darkness always turns into light
Oooooh, thats right |
Baby, its been a long time coming
Such a long, long time
And I cant stop running
Such a long, long time
Can you hear my heart beating?
Can you hear that sound?
Cause I cant help thinking
And I wont stop now
And then I looked up at the sun
And I could see
Oh, the way that gravity pulls on you and me
And then I looked up at the sky
And saw the sun
And the way that gravity pushes on everyone
On everyone
Baby, when your wheels stop turning
And you feel let down
And it seems like troubles
Have come all around
I can hear your heart beating
I can hear that sound
But I cant help thinking
And I wont look now
And then I looked up at the sun
And I could see
Oh, the way that gravity pulls on you and me
And then I looked up at the sky
And saw the sun
And the way that gravity pushes on everyone
On everyone
On everyone
On everyone
On everyone
On everyone |
Ah-hmm
Joseph rode in on a beam of light
Stray dogs to welcome him, fights, corrugate cathedrals
The sight of the pilgrims going nowhere in millions of cars
Lagos a dream in the distance
From promises hed made behind
Where there was no harvest
But he missed the sky and its circus
And countless, the stars
In Africa
The rivers are perfectly deep
And beautifully wide
In Africa
The mothers will sing you to sleep
And say, Its alright, child
Its alright
Yeah
Ah-hmm
Ah-hmm
In Africa
We dance in the water and hold
Each other so tight
In Africa
The mothers will sing you to sleep
And say, Its alright, child
Its alright
Joseph rode in on a beam of light
And dreamed of his queen by his side
Therell be a beautiful sunset
And youll be a beautiful bride |
Some saw the sun
Some saw the smoke
Some heard the gun
Some bent the bow
Sometimes the wire must tense for the note
Caught in the fire, say oh
Were about to explode
Carry your world
Ill carry your world
Carry your world
Ill carry your world
Some far away
Some search for gold
Some dragon to slay
Heaven we hope is just up the road
Show me the way, Lord
Cause I, Im about to explode
Carry your world
Ill carry your world
Carry your world
Ill carry your world
Carry your world, and all your hurt |
Lovers keep on the road youre on
Runners until the race is run
Soldiers, youve got to soldier on
Sometimes even the right is wrong
They are turning my head out
To see what Im all about
Keeping my head down
To see what it feels like now
But I have no doubt
One day were gonna get out
Tonight maybe were gonna run
Dreaming of the Osaka sun
Oh, Oh
Dreaming of when the morning comes
They are turning my head out
To see what Im all about
Keeping my head down
To see what it feels like now
But I have no doubt
One day the sun will come out
Reign of love
I cant let go
To the sea I offer this heavy load
Locust wind
Lift me up
Im just a prisoner in a reign of love
Locust wind
Here I stop
How I wish Id spoken up
To a reign of love
Reign of love
By the church were waiting
Reign of love
On my knees go praying
How I wish Id spoken up
Away get carried on a reign of love |
Those who are dead are not dead
Theyre just living in my head
And since I fell for that spell
I am living there as well, oh
Time is so short
And Im sure
There must be something more
Those who are dead are not dead
Theyre just living in my head, oh
And since I fell for that spell
I am living there as well, oh
Time is so short
And Im sure
There must be something more
You thought you might be a ghost
You thought you might be a ghost
You didnt get to heaven, but you made it close
You didnt get to heaven, but you made it close
You thought you might be a ghost
You thought you might be a ghost
You didn’t get to heaven, but you made it close
You didn’t get to heaven, but you oh-oh-ooh, oh-oh-ooh
Oh, oh
Those who are dead are not dead
Theyre just living in my head |
Tony was a friend of mine
We were together all the time
He had my back
Once he really saved my life
Sometimes I wanna call him
Say, Hey, lets stay up til morning
And when I close my eyes, when I close my eyes
I see you, you
When I close my eyes, when I close my eyes
You come through, you
Time just deepens
Sweetens and mends
Old friends
We all melt back into the picture
Raindrops back into the water
Old friends
Hmm, hmm
And there are no ends to old friends
Amen |
Take it from the playgrounds and take it from the bums
Take it from the hospitals and squeeze it from the slums
All the kids make pistols with their fingers and their thumbs
Advertise a revolution, arm it when it comes
Were cooking up the zeros, weve been doing all the sums
The judgment of this court is we need more guns
Stop
Everythings gone so crazy
Everything tangled in blue
Everyones gone fucking crazy
Maybe Im crazy too
Melt down all the trumpets, all the trombones and the drums
Who needs education or A Thousand Splendid Suns?
Poor is good for business, cut the forests, theyre so dumb
Only save your look-alikes and fuck the other ones
Its the opinion of this board that we need more guns
Stop
Everythings gone so crazy
Everybody but you
Everythings gone fucking crazy
Maybe Im crazy too |
This being human is a guest house
Every morning a new arrival
A joy, a depression, a meanness
Some momentary awareness comes
As an unexpected visitor
Welcome and entertain them all!
Be grateful for whoever comes
Because each has been sent as a guide |
The talk among the skeletons this morning
If you could do it all again, would you do it all the same?
Is there something that youd tell your former self?
There were those that wished theyd spun upon the jukebox
There were pirates who had never seen the sea
But the one recurring theme, the one recurring dream they had
Was to be whatever they wanted to be
To be Pyotr Tchaikovsky
To be free, and like everyone else
There will be no flags to own me, no!
Cause I just want to be myself
Julie, telephoning by a ouija
Is there any advice that you could give?
When you know youre not like them
Do you know La Varsovienne?
I know that I am living, but can you show me how to live?
And the Holy Roman Army
Said, Your heart beats like everyone else
But you dont need no flags to tell you who you are, so say
I just want to be myself
La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la
Theres an aura that surrounds thee
Theres a different kind of wealth
And I dont need flags to know youre really something
And I just love you for yourself
Oh, I just love you for yourself
La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la |
Stare into darkness, staring at doom
My heart, boom, b-boom, boom
Stare into darkness, admit defeat
Comin home and Im finding no peace
And I know, and I know, and I know
I know Im unlocked
And I know, and I know, and I know

So I put my hands up to the sky, I feel alive
Youve got a rocket ship that I wanna ride
Put my hands up to the sky, thats alright
Wherever you are, Ill find that treasure
Wherever you are, Ill find that treasure
Stare into darkness, staring at doom

Superhero, a masterpiece
Been innocent, but a sinner in me
And I know, and I know and I know
I know Im in love
And I know, and I know and I know
I know when Im lost
I just put my hands up to the sky, feeling like
Got a rocket ship that I wanna ride
Put my hands up to the sky, feeling inside
Wherever you are, Ill find that treasure
Put my hands up to the sky, feeling like
Ive got a rocket; eyes on the prize
Put my hands up to the sky

Wherever you are, Ill find that treasure
So I race for it
Wherever you are, Ill find that treasure
So I race for it
Wherever you are, Ill find that treasure
And I know, and I know, and I know

X marks the spot
So I put my hands up to the sky, I feel like
Ive got a rocket ship that I wanna ride
Put my hands up to the sky, feel it inside
Wherever you are, Ill find that treasure
Put my hands up to the sky, feeling like
I got a rocket; eyes on the prize
Put my hands up to the sky; Im gonna find
Wherever you are, Ill find that treasure
Wherever you are |
You cut me down a tree
And brought it back to me
And thats what made me see
Where I was going wrong
You put me on a shelf
And kept me for yourself
I can only blame myself
You can only blame me
And I could write a song
A hundred miles long
Well, thats where I belong
And you belong with me
And I could write it down
Or spread it all around
Get lost, and then get found
Or swallowed in the sea
You put me on a line
And hung me out to dry
And darling, thats when I
Decided to go see
You cut me down to size
And opened up my eyes
Made me realize
What I could not see
And I could write a book
The one theyll say that shook
The world, and then it took
It took it back from me
And I could write it down
Or spread it all around
Get lost, and then get found
And youll come back to me
Not swallowed in the sea
And I could write a song
A hundred miles long
Well, thats where I belong
And you belong with me
The streets youre walking on
A thousand houses long
Well, thats where I belong
And you belong with me
Oh, what good is it to live
With nothing left to give?
Forget, but not forgive
Not loving all you see
All the streets youre walking on
A thousand houses long
Well, thats where I belong
And you belong with me
Not swallowed in the sea
You belong with me
Not swallowed in the sea
Yeah, you belong with me
Not swallowed in the sea |
And the hardest part
Was letting go not taking part
Was the hardest part
And the strangest thing
Was waiting for that bell to ring
It was the strangest start
I could feel it go down
Bittersweet I could taste in my mouth
Silver lining the clouds
Oh and I...
I wish that I could work it out
And the hardest part
Was letting go not taking part
You really broke my heart, oh
And I tried to sing
But I couldnt think of anything
And that was the hardest part, oh, oh
I can feel it go down
You left the sweetest taste in my mouth
Youre a silver lining the clouds
Oh and I...
Oh and I...
I wonder what its all about
I wonder what its all about
Everything I know is wrong
Everything I do, it just comes undone
And everything is torn apart
Oh and thats the hardest part
Thats the hardest part
Yeah thats the hardest part
Thats the hardest part |
Oh, morning come bursting the clouds, amen
Lift off this blindfold, let me see again
Bring back the water, let your ships roll in
In my heart, she left a hole
The tightrope that I’m walking just sways and ties
The Devil as hes talking with those angels eyes
And I just want to be there when the lightning strikes
And the saints go marching in
And sing
Slow it down
Through chaos as it swirls
Its us against the world
Like a river to a raindrop, I lost a friend
My drunken hazard Daniel in a lions den
And tonight, I know it all has to begin again
So whatever you do, don’t let go
And if we could float away
Fly up to the surface and just start again
Lift off before trouble just erodes us in the rain
Just erodes us in the rain
Just erodes us and see roses in the rain, saying
Slow it down
Slow it down
Through chaos as it swirls
Its us against the world
Through chaos as it swirls
Its us against the world |
My song is love
Love to the loveless shown
And it goes on
You dont have to be alone
Your heavy heart
Is made of stone
And its so hard to see you, clearly
You dont have to be on your own
You dont have to be on your own
And Im not gonna take it back
And Im not gonna say I dont mean that
Youre the target that Im aiming at
Can I get that message home?
My song is love
My song is love unknown
But Im on fire for you, clearly
You dont have to be alone
You dont have to be on your own
And Im not gonna take it back
And Im not gonna say I dont mean that
Youre the target that Im aiming at
And Im nothing on my own
Got to get that message home
And Im not gonna stand and wait
Im not gonna leave it until its much too late
On a platform, Im gonna stand and say
That Im nothing on my own
And I love you, please come home
My song is love, is love unknown
And Ive got to get that message home |
I, Im a one way motorway
Im the one that drives away, then follows you back home
And I, Im a street light shinin
Im a wild light blinding bright, burning off alone, oh-oh-oh
Its times like these you learn to live again
Its times like these we give and give again
Its times like these you learn to love again
Its times like these, time and time again, oh-oh-oh

Do I stay or run away and leave it all behind?

Its times like these you learn to live again
Its times like these you give and give again
Its times like these you learn to love again
Its times like these, time and time again
Lets go, its times like these that we activate
Do something to improve, dont procrastinate
I been cooking now, make a wicked pasta plate
Stream games at 11 but I clap at eight
And Ill drink on FaceTime if you tempt me
Time to pay back all the health docs lent me
And for me West 10s elementary
But right now I wanna see Ladbroke Grove empty, you get me?
We make it better together well make a better life
Because the pressure is ever upon us every night
And everyday so we pray and we will forever fight
Well make it better together, well make a better life
I, Im a one way motorway
Im the one that drives away, then follows you back home, mm-mm-hm
I, Im a street light shining
Im a wild light blinding bright, burnin off alone
Its times like these you learn to live again
Its times like these you give and give again
Its times like these you learn to love again
Its times like these time and time again
Its times like these you learn to live again
Its times like these you learn to love again |
Theres a wild wind blowing down the corner of my street
Every night there, the headlights are glowing
Theres a cold war coming on the radio, I heard
Baby, its a violent world
Love, dont let me go
Wont you take me where the street lights glow?
I can hear it coming, I can hear the siren sound
Now my feet wont touch the ground
Time came a-creeping and times a loaded gun
Every road is a ray of light
It goes on, time only can lead you on
Still its such a beautiful night
Love, dont let me go
Wont you take me where the street lights glow?
I can hear it coming like a serenade of sound
Now my feet wont touch the ground
Gravity, release me and dont ever hold me down
Now my feet wont touch the ground |
When I counted up my demons
Saw there was one for every day
With the good ones on my shoulders
I drove the other ones away
So if you ever feel neglected

The things that I shouldnt have done

And I dont want to live it alone
Sing out, ah ah

I-Oh-I-Oh-I
Drunk, so high, so high
Oh, angel sent from up above
You know you make my world light up
When I was down, when I was hurt
You came to lift me up
Life is a drink and loves a drug
Oh now I think I must be miles up
When I was a river dried up
You came to rain a flood
I-Oh-I-Oh-I
Got me feeling drunk and high
So high, so high
Oh-I-Oh-I-Oh-I
Now I’m feeling drunk and high
So high, so high
Oh, angel sent from up above

To make the stars come out
Drink from me, drink from me
Poured on a symphony
When Im low, low, low, low

Got me feeling drunk and high
So high, so high

So you lost your trust
And you never should have
And you never should have
But dont break your back
If you ever see this
But dont answer that
In a bulletproof vest
With the windows all closed
Ill be doing my best
Ill see you soon
In a telescope lens
And when all you want is friends
Ill see you soon
So they came for you
They came snapping at your heels
They come snapping at your heels
But dont break your back
If you ever hear this
But dont answer that
In a bulletproof vest
With the windows all closed
Ill be doing my best
Ill see you soon
In a telescope lens
And when all you want is friends
Ill see you soon
Ill see you soon
I know, you lost your trust

I Know, dont lose your trust

Ive been reading books of old
The legends and the myths
Achilles and his gold
Hercules and his gifts
Spidermans control
And Batman with his fists
And clearly I dont see myself upon that list
But she said, whered you wanna go?
How much you wanna risk?
Im not looking for somebody
With some superhuman gifts
Some superhero
Some fairytale bliss
Just something I can turn to
Somebody I can kiss
I want something just like this
Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo
Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo
Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo

The testaments they told
The moon and its eclipse
And Superman unrolls
A suit before he lifts
But Im not the kind of person that it fits

How much you wanna risk?
Im not looking for somebody
With some superhuman gifts

From up above I heard
The angels sing to me these words
And sometimes, in your eyes
I see the beauty in the world
Oh, now Im floating so high
I blossom and die
Send your storm and your lightning to strike
Me between the eyes
Eyes
Sometimes the stars decide
To reflect in puddles in the dirt
When I look in your eyes
I forget all about what hurts
Oh, now Im floating so high
I blossom and die
Send your storm and your lightning to strike
Me between the eyes
And cry
Oh hey, Im floating up above the world now
Oh hey, Im floating up above the world now
Oh, yeah yeah yeah |
Holy, Holy
Dove descend
Soft and slowly
When Im near the end
Holy, Holy
Dark defend
Shield me, show me
When I need a friend
Slowly, slowly
Violence, end
Love reign oer me
When I need a friend
Hombre, mire
Ah, propiamente
Para toda la gente ha sido motivo de burla
Por que todo el mundo piensa que es una cosa imposible
Que es cuestión de locos
El problema es que todo es increíble
Y la gente no lo acepta |
Can anybody fly this thing?
Before my head explodes
Or my head starts to ring
Weve been living life inside a bubble
Weve been living life inside a bubble
Confidence in you
Is confidence in me
Is confidence in high speed
Can anybody stop this thing?
Before my head explodes
Or my head starts to ring
Weve been living life inside a bubble
Weve been living life inside a bubble
Confidence in you
Is confidence in me
Is confidence in high speed
In high speed
High speed
High speed you on
High speed you on
High speed you on
High speed you on |

Youre in control, is there anything you wanna know?
The futures for discovering
The space in which were travelling
From the top of the first page
To the end of the last day
From the start in your own way
You just want...
Somebody listening to what you say
It doesnt matter who you are
Under the surface trying to break through
Deciphering the codes in you
I need a compass, draw me a map
Im on the top I cant get back
Whoah, woah
First line of the first page
To the end of the last day
You were looking
From the start in your own way
You just want...
Somebody listening to what you say
It doesnt matter who you are
It doesnt matter who you are
Oooh
You just want somebody listening to what you say
You just want somebody listening to what you say
It doesnt matter who you are
It doesnt matter who you are
Is there anybody out there who is lost and hurt and lonely too?
Are they bleeding all your colours into one?
And if you come undone as if youd been run through
Some catapult it fired you
You wonder if your chance will ever come
Well, if youre stuck in square one |
The Lyrics dataset parsed from Genius. This dataset is designed to generate lyrics with HuggingArtists. Model is available here.
en
How to load this dataset directly with the datasets library:
from datasets import load_dataset
dataset = load_dataset("huggingartists/coldplay")
An example of 'train' looks as follows.
This example was too long and was cropped:
{
"text": "Look, I was gonna go easy on you\nNot to hurt your feelings\nBut I'm only going to get this one chance\nSomething's wrong, I can feel it..."
}
The data fields are the same among all splits.
text
: a string
feature.train | validation | test |
---|---|---|
432 | - | - |
'Train' can be easily divided into 'train' & 'validation' & 'test' with few lines of code:
from datasets import load_dataset, Dataset, DatasetDict
import numpy as np
datasets = load_dataset("huggingartists/coldplay")
train_percentage = 0.9
validation_percentage = 0.07
test_percentage = 0.03
train, validation, test = np.split(datasets['train']['text'], [int(len(datasets['train']['text'])*train_percentage), int(len(datasets['train']['text'])*(train_percentage + validation_percentage))])
datasets = DatasetDict(
{
'train': Dataset.from_dict({'text': list(train)}),
'validation': Dataset.from_dict({'text': list(validation)}),
'test': Dataset.from_dict({'text': list(test)})
}
)
