These are days of hit and run
In the stream with everyone
Is a moment of our lives
On a wandering river
Going on together
Many journeys to arrive
I've been walking
Through the valley
Through the tall grass
And the shadows
And I feel it
I can see it
Yes I need it
I believe it
Through the city
And the towers
Turning minutes
Into hours
And I feel it
I can see it
Yes I need it
I believe it
When I think I'm being strong
And I lose direction
then a life starts looking mischievous
Finding revelation
Out of desperation
Always stretching time
But it's never long enough
You think you're happy
Think you're free
But maybe we're just
Comfortably dizzy
I've been running
Through the valley
Through the tall grass
And the shadows
And I feel it
I can see it
Yes I need it
I believe it
Through the city
And the towers
Turning minutes
Into hours
And I feel it
I can see it
Yes I need it
I believe it
I've been running
Through the valley
Through the tall grass
Through the shadows
And I feel it
I can see it
Yes I need it
I believe it
Through the city
And the towers
Turning minutes
Into hours
And I feel it
I can see it
Yes I need it
I believe it

Dark sun rose on the ridge cut clear across the sky
As good a day as any to die
No reservation madam
No reason to know why
Running late stiletto heels
Try to loosen up the wheels
You spend your life in preparation for this day
Breathe in the air; it's loaded with fame
Check out those weapons sister before you hit the fray
String of pearls meet bits of gems
Enter the battle of the lenses
Red carpet massacre
Don't want to hassle you
Red carpet massacre
Deathstalk papparazzi yeah
Red carpet massacre
It's going to mess with you
We're in business
You're on the hit list
There's not so many now still standing on their feet
Their knives are out and singing so sweet
Engage with sharper minds that cut you when you meet
Anyplace to mess around
When someone wants to take you down
Maybe you think you're above this
But baby we know that you love it
Baby you know where to shove it
Apply your lipstick
'Fore dying in public
Red carpet massacre
Don't want to hassle you
Red carpet massacre
Deathstalk papparazzi yeah
Red carpet massacre
Don't want to mess with you
Now it's time
Next in line
We're so busted
Done and dusted

You're nocturnal
Only come out at night
And I'm learning
All the ways you want to ride
Cuz you're on the roam
But not until the darkness arrives
And I'm certain
I'll catch up to you one of these times, baby
Oh
Can I get my hands on you tonight
(I must be feeling something)
Some thing tells me I'm in for a ride
(I wonder if you see me coming)
Can I put my hands on you tonight
(One night has got me running)
Something tells me I'm in for a ride
(Right into your nighttime world cuz I'm a)
Nite Runner
I think I'm falling for you
Nite Runner
You got a style that put me under
Nite Runner
What you gonna do with it now
Nite Runner
Nite, nite runner
Light scatters
When you walk into the room
Under shadow
I can feel the heat in you
Should I be surprised
I see the possibility
Moving right across to me
And it all matters
When I'm getting close to you, hey yeah
Uh huh
Can I get my hands on you tonight
(I must be feeling something)
Something tells me I'm in for a ride
(I wonder if you see me coming)
Can I put my hands on you tonight
(One night has got me running)
Something tells me I'm in for a ride
(Right into your nighttime world cuz I'm a)
Nite Runner
I think I'm falling for you
Nite Runner
You got a spell that puts me under
Nite Runner
What you gonna do with it now
Nite Runner
Nite, nite runner
Love is haunting
She wanted to go
That's what she told me
Love is haunting
She wanted to go
But I can't, can't
Nite Runner

Nite Runner
You got a spell that put me under
Nite Runner
What you gonna do with it now
Nite Runner

Once was a man who consumed his place and time
He thought nothing could touch him
But here and now it’s a different storyline
Like the straw he is clutching
Why has the sky turned grey
Hard to my face and cold on my shoulder
And why has my life gone astray
Scarred by disgrace, I know that its over
Because I’m falling down
With people standing round
But before I hit the ground
Is there time
Could I find someone out there to help me?
Howl at the wind rushing past my lonely head
Caught inside its own motion
How I wish it was somebody else instead
Howling at all this corrosion
Why did the luck run dry
Laugh in my face, so pleased to desert me
Why do the cruel barbs fly?
Now when disgrace can no longer hurt me
Because I’m falling down
With people standing round
But before I hit the ground
Is there time
Could I find someone out there to help me?
Because I’m falling down
With people standing round
But before I hit the ground
Is there time
Could I find someone out there to help me?
I don’t know…. Why…

Box full o' honey
At the sharp end of the view
The edge of me and you
And all good sense had tread no further
And as the ghost will shiver trees
How I'm trembling on my knees
But I'm still drawn on by the murmur
Are you laughing at me now
In my circumstance
When still I wear I your crown
My life's penitence
And for what
What's so funny
A box full o honey
What I thought a pretty tune
Was howling at the moon
To keep me company this evening
It's so lonely in the dirt
A scratching at the hurt
But I so generously did leave you
Are you laughing at me now
In my circumstance
When still I wear I your crown
Some cruel penitence
for what
What's so funny
Box full o honey
Is she flirting with me now
Ohh
Is she dallying with me now
Ohh
ohhh
Are you flirting with me now
You'll always be my queen of tumble down
Miss melancholy
Are you laughing at me now
In my circumstance
When still I wear I your crown
And my life's a penitence
And for what
What's so funny
Ain't it funny
A box full o honey
. . .

Walking under skies
Waiting for the fall
Meet me at the cornershop I'll show you it all
Free you of your mind
Something you wont find
In the west-end pages with your google dirty fingers
It's a skin dive
In deep silence we are
Going underwater
It's a lifeline
Teardrop, bullets, all night
Dip into the water
Rap:
Baby, that's what it feels like when you come up for air
When you come up for air
You feel brand new
When you come up for air
When you come up for air
That's what it feels like when you come up for air
When you come up for air
You feel brand new
When you come up for air
When you come up for air
Wipe us of the face
Of the human race
Whichever way you look it's indisposed or disgraced
Fighting on the shore
The hoi polloi want more
Howling bloody murder but it's nothing just a murmur
In your skin dive
In deep silence we are
Going underwater
It's a lifeline
Teardrop, bullets, all night
Slip into the water
Rap:
Baby....that's what it feels like when you come up for air
When you come up for air
You feel brand new
When you come up for air
When you come up for air
That's what it feels like when you come up for air
When you come up for air
You feel brand new
When you come up for air
When you come up for air
A blushing rose is torn
From these sugar walls
I've misplaced my future could I please borrow yours?
Panic on the scene
You know what I mean
Anything you want to be the only thing you want from me
Is skin dive
In deep silence we are
Going underwater
It's a lifeline
Teardrop, bullets, all night
Go inside the water
Rap:
Babygirl you're swimming
A little too deep
So deep....that I think you might hit a reef
I think you low on oxygen
And you're too glad to leave
Babygirl swim to the top
Grab my hand and hold me and breathe
Baby....that's what it feels like when you come up for air
When you come up for air
You feel brand new
When you come up for air
When you come up for air
That's what it feels like when you come up for air
When you come up for air
You feel brand new
When you come up for air
When you come up for air

Zooming in
Stood on the line
You understand
I've been waiting forever
Come rain come shine
In the wind in the snow
In the filty weather
You've got it all worked out
Ya but it knocks you out
But I'm zooming in
Now she arrives
In a flaming crash
Like a falling star
Heading straight for the dive
Gonna make some cash
With the avatar
You got it all worked out
I know you know
I don't want you to go
Ya but it knocks you out
I'm zooming in on you on you
Don't look back you?re a heart attack x 4
You've got it all worked out
Ya but it knocks you out
We're not alone
In the 2nd life
There are millions like us
Right here
In the stones
In the air too bright
All the new insiders
You've got it all worked out
I know you know
I don't want you to go
Ya but it knocks you out
I'm zooming in on you on you
Na na na na na na
I know you know
I don't want you to go
Na na na na na na
I'm zooming in and out on you

She's gentle to the touch
She's everything head first
So happy to be causing trouble
Sometimes
The pressure gets too much
And you think she's going to burst
And shatter like a Christmas bubble
I'll be there when the world is
coming down upon her
When she's scared, I'll be there
Fighting in her corner
She cries when she's alone
For all life's little knocks
Everything is supposed to make us tougher
Thinking is doesn't really show
But I know how she hurts
And I can't bare to see her suffer
I'll be there when the world is
coming down upon her
When she's scared, I'll be there
Fighting in her corner
I'll be there when the world
is closing to surround her
In the air as she falls with my arms around her
Holding on I'm looking out for
Her thin skin
Because she's everything
and I don't think she knows
She's such a gentle touch
She's too much a gentle touch
She likes to catch the sun
Plays with it like a ball
And never mind whatever keeps it burning
Someday, she might just be the one
Whose going to save us all
If this apocalipse is coming
I'll be there when the world is
coming down upon her
When she's scared, I'll be there
Fighting in her corner
I'll be there when the world
is closing to surround her
In the air as she falls with my arms around her
Holding on I'm looking out for
Her thin skin
Because she's everything
and I don't think she knows
I don't think she knows
I don't think she knows
(she's too much)
I don't think she knows
(she's too much a gentle touch)

There's a dirty great monster
In this house
We pretend it's not there
And there's no escape
From It's grip
But nobody seems to care
Do you ever wonder
About the days
When we were straight
But daddy got the hunger
So much to hide
We learn to lie
So watch yourself
In the hall
Where you're not supposed to know
Cuz we're all afraid of each other
We're the victim's in this show
Well Do you ever wonder
About the days
When we were straight
when daddy got the hunger
too much to hide
We learn to lie
Silently out numbered
We made mistakes
When we were straight
Now we're all going under
Oh oh
So with a sigh we say good bye
. . .

Now an unexpected peace comes to the day
As the howling dimmed the fighting dies away
when the hanging dust is clearing from the air
you can just make out a lonely figure there
He's the last man standing on the track
He does not look down
He does not look back
He's the last man standing on the track
You can't hold him down
You can't hold him back
He's the last man standing on the track
He does not look down
He does not look back
He's the last man standing on the track
You can't hold him down
You can't hold him back
he's sorry for the wrong he has done
And he cries out for the anger for so long
All the cuts and bruises suffered
In whose name
oh but now is not the time to face his shame
He's the last man standing on the track
He does not look down
He does not look back
He's the last man standing on the track
You can't hold him down
You can't hold him back
the last man standing on the track
He does not look down
He does not look back
He's the last man standing on the track
You can't hold him down
You can't hold him back
He's the last man standing
Last man standing
He's the last man standing
