Lyrics

THE GREATEST GIFT

1) Liars And Murderers

There is no end, only beginnings. There is no end. I'll wait for this to fall from me. I'll wait to breathe under the ocean.

2) When We Say

We could have been there, back in the garden. Look what we've done wrong. You stole our heaven away. You killed to animals, didn't you? And when all beauty... It had gone, the people sang your blood soaked song and taught their children how to wrong their own kind. It's over when we say brothers and sisters, all are included, the ship is waiting. Why search the world for one place when it's still within you? And when all hearts... They beat as one, that's when the battle has been won. They can not touch us any more with my friends. It's over when we say.

3) Stuffed

Stuffed inside a paper bag, I don't care what you do to me. If I get nervous, sit me in a swing. Everyone's moving except for me. This isn't anyway. It's not too late for you to shine. Stand up, stand up, just you. Let it go. Am I missing something? No I didn't think so. Let it go. Am I standing in your light yet? Not too good, but it's a start I suppose. Do I feel hungry? You don't want to know how hungry I've been, I just don't know what I like. This isn't any way. Do you ever think about the things I dream about? Don't wait too long. There's danger. No fear. Don't wait to. Don't wait too long.

4) Oh River

We've been up and down again. Seeds all planted in the rain. Which of you can hope to be. One as beautiful as me. Oh river. I will paint it red again. A hunter not some fisherman. Though it hurts to understand. I will teach you nothing man. This is all about feeling. That your hand isn't all so deal with it. This is all about dealing. With the facts about life so feel it. Land of the giants is over. Past isn't yours to rake over. It isn't the same now. You've got to figure it out for yourself. Do not wait to fall over. This isn't all you get then game over. It isn't strange to stop moving. And if your sun stops revolving. Feel it. In the land of little men. Mice have eaten all the strings. Daemons all we use the key. To subjugate divinity. Figure it out for yourself.

5) Promise Me

I've lost all feeling in my chest again, I hoped this spirit would just drain away and leave me be. Doctor, I need some surgery but really don't remember which side I don't need. Cain was just like a brother, carry his love inside my head. If it comes about, can I call on you to put me down again? Brother, sister, how I'll miss you. Pain was never the same to me, it's a promise that I never made. I don't see it stopping itself. I can't, cross your heart and then promise me. Kill me. Promise me. I don't see it stopping itself. I can't. You need someone, somebody else, I can't. Sister, brother, how I loved you. Oh, say it's never.

6) ABC... Giant Steps

Tell your children not to go away from what you know they need to know. A taste of what it could be like if all we asked of ourselves is everything. Lover, won't you tow be far behind. Some will call you up to fight and guard their pride with all your stupid might, but no one wants for anything when all we ask of ourselves is everything. Everything. Where is the light burning in your fire? Where is the will that will not tire? Tearing down roses. There's not anything to stop you loving.

7) No Beauty

There is no sun up in your sky, the clouds are all around. Look down, look down. There is no beauty in your lie. There is no sparkle in your eye, no heir, no second chance. Look down, look down. There is no beauty in your lie. There are no bars that I can see, there burns a need inside of me, and I will not listen anymore because I know that you can't bear to see all that I still could be. No more. I'm just a little guy with great big hopes inside. There is no beauty in your lie.

8) Revolution

It's about that time, let's see your money. Show me when you're having fun. Time and tide will wait for no one, like ideas whose time has come. No choice but to believe. I feel on top of the world ma, it's everything I ever wanted to be. Ideas have legs, they run for purpose changing history at a stroke. If you're going out question what it is they're shoveling down your throat. Sing revolution. You wanted to be sixteen, seventeen, you went to sleep in 1979. Woke up, you're not achieving anything. Take what you want. It's not about hunted to hunter, get your guns away from me. All you've got is you, get busy being all the things you want to be. So just stop following. I feel on top of the world ma. This is more than ideology. Sing revolution. Revolution.

9) Falling Out

Earth will fall around my ears. Can't you see it in my eyes. Don't tell me to make myself unclear. It's in my blood. It's my blood. It's in me. There's angels in flames above me. So say that you'll always love me. Open your arms. I'm falling out. I feel it coming down on me. I feel it coming down. Worlds to me are useless now. I am cowed by anarchy. I feel it coming down on me. You'll never believe this baby. Carry me carry me home.

10) Tabletten

We bear the image of God. Created language and time. So how come I feel pale and simian, strapped and weak? And I'll do anything you say. We are destroyers of worlds. We've conquered beauty and pain. So what's wrong with me? Safe and stupid, I spill my drink. And I'll do anything you say. And now they're building on Mars. We bridge the milky way. I really believe I've got nobody else to blame. And I, I'll do anything you say. Fire. Wheel. Steam. Me.

11) 23rd

This thought occurs to me: A little star has been promoted, a light to tell a million stories has gone from me. Oh what a wailing there was, full of surprises. I won't feel blue, for I will be listening. Brother be still for his love is within you and spills over. Though I know you're still with me, my heart is broken and I just can't let you go. Brother be still for his love is within you. Today never ended. Won't you please... Can you help me to believe it? That this body is just prison walls. I just can't let it go. I will be waiting there for you, I will be listening.

12) Seize The Day

Growing tiered of the herd. Growing tiered of all you do. Growing tiered of all your ways. Getting sick to death of you. Selling all your precious dreams. Selling all you've got to give. Selling always selling something. Keep the hell away from me. Don't believe in fate, just a debt to pay, and I'm so ashamed of you. I believe that one day this gets washed away. Seize the day. There's power running through your veins. A power I can not possess. The greatest gift is still yourself. you won't give a single thing. And I'm just a little fairy on your Christmas tree, I'm so happy I could die right here. it's still clawing at my body, pouring over me, I know we're not the same. Never wanting more, never needing more. Hate takes away all the power in your name.
