Want you to know
That I could go anytime I want you to know Gave me her lips Gave me her perfect hips And I slow down I slow down in love Once I rise inside Once she would hold me She was my only Only true love Once she had told me Cannot hold me Hold me so long She'll stay all night She'll be so quiet But she won't laugh at my jokes Once I rise inside 02. 1,000 People Music by Aviv Geffen Lyrics by Aviv Geffen, Steven Wilson
1000 people yell
They're shouting my name But I wanna die in this moment I wanna die And 1000 people smile They're smiling at me But I wanna die in this moment I wanna die No way to understand Why I've become the way I am And then the sky is filled with stars I find a place inside my heart Some people can take a blow They won't ever drop But I wanna die in this moment I wanna die She will tell me she loves me And she won't ever stop But I wanna die in this moment I wanna die A coldness in my soul And I reach out for her to hold And then I watch her close her eyes It's only me that needs to cry And if I stay with you Do you believe that I'll pull through? No way to understand Why I've become the way I am And when the sky is filled with stars I find a place inside my heart And then I watch her close her eyes It's only me that needs to cry 1000 people yell They're shouting my name But I wanna die in this moment I wanna die 03. Miss U Music & lyrics by Aviv Geffen
They said you're in love again
And I try to hide my pain I was buried in my bed With your pictures in my head You're living another life It cuts me like a knife I hope you understand I'm the one who's left behind Tomorrow you'll be gone and I'll miss you They said you're in love again And my eyes start to burn Wherever you are now I wish you could hear my silent sigh It's not that I try to blame It's just kind of a grainy day I hope you understand I'm the one who's left behind Tomorrow you'll be gone and I'll miss you 04. Christenings Music & lyrics by Steven Wilson
I met you in a record store
You had slept in the clothes you wore But I knew I'd seen you somewhere before What happened to your guitar? And what happened to the prettiest star? Can you still play the songs that got you so far? Hey you with your shadow in the gutter How low have you gotta go before you're through? High times and vodka in the morning All your memories are coming out of your shoes Black dog sitting in the park Odd looks from the mothers of the devil's own Shoplifting, getting your essentials Gatecrashing christenings and funerals And weddings too I used to see you all the time on MTV Read your life story in a magazine I guess you thought that's the way it would always be But I believe in you 'Cos I think that you'd want me to Though I never really liked your songs it's true 05. This Killer Music & lyrics by Aviv Geffen
Don't leave the door ajar and walk away
Don't leave me in the dark You think you know me well, it makes me laugh 'Cos I don't know myself This killer on the run He steals from me the sun He'll catch me off my guard He likes me when I'm down and when I'm sad Falling man It's always me alone that hears the noise 'Cos it's my inner voice So stay inside your home and hide away Before I lose control This killer on the run He steals from me the sun He'll catch me off my guard He likes me when I'm down and when I'm sad Falling man This killer on the run He steals from me the sun And I can say I know him well And so can he Because it's me 06. Epidemic Music by Aviv Geffen Lyrics by Aviv Geffen, Steven Wilson
Don't say everything's OK
Don't tell me that it's just a phase It doesn't help me All the stars are standing still The anger and the sleeping pills Are all that's left now An epidemic in my heart Takes hold and slowly poisons me Her will won't let me breathe It comes in waves and bleeds me dry This love is slowly killing me For me there's no-one else Jealousy just eats me up her knife has made the deepest cut My heart is open You tell me there must be an end But afterwards we'll still be friends It seemes so easy 07. My Gift Of Silence Music & lyrics by Steven Wilson
If I compiled all my crimes and my lies into amnesty
Would you come back to me? The smile on my lips is a sign that I don't hear you leaving me And I don't hear my own soul scream I'll read your lips, watch a scarf play at your hips And I know it's true But I don't hear him call to you Don't blame yourself Don't change yourself I just wanna be, over you see, and feel numb Don't hate yourself 08. Some Day Music & lyrics by Aviv Geffen
When you were a boy
You had no place inside your parent's world You were falling like the leaves From an old and dying tree You went to school But the teachers made you feel a fool While the children played with joy You're the one they would avoid Someday You will find a better place to stay You'll never need to feel this way again Again again Show a smile They'd like to have you in their members' club They'll buy you drinks and tell you lies paper umbrella with some ice No-one cares About that fucking pretty face you have It means nothing much this life So find the highest cliff and dive 09. Where Is My Love? Music & lyrics by Aviv Geffen
Endless fields of emptiness in my dark and wounded heart
Where is my love? The freezing moment when you turned your head and waved goodbye Where is my love? Even all the biggest storms can't take my pain away Where is my love? Noisy happy people crossing streets from side to side Where is my love? I gave you everything I could but you want the stars Where is my love? Endless fields of emptiness in my dark and wounded heart Where is my love? 10. End Of The World Music & lyrics by Aviv Geffen
Don't you forget what I've told you
So many years We are hopeless And slaves to our fears We're an accident called human beings Don't be angry for loving me baby Don't say it's unreal So many lies turned to songs Like roses who are hiding their thorns It's the end of the world It's a prison for dreams and for hopes And still we believe there is god It's the end of the world We're dead but pretend we're alive Full of ignorance Fools in disguise In your room doing nothing But staring at flickering screens Streets are empty But still you can hear Joy of children turned to tears Disease hides around every corner Quietly still Wait for the moment to hit We forgot what is touch What to feel Take this pill it will make you feel dizzy And then give you wings Soon boy you'll fall into sleep Without nightmares Without any dreams If you wake up in hell or in heaven Tell the angels we're here Waiting below for a dream Here in the garden of sin |
