This shattered town gets me down
My ticket's booked then you were found
I tore them up like you tore my heart
I'm black and blue from love and art

(Give it up, Gimme)
Who could take it?
(Give it up, Gimme)
I guess I'll shake it, but
No-one touches all you are
Strip to show me all you are

Let me show you how you make me feel
(I've got my finger on the trigger)

Well through the twilight how I've tried
To get my thoughts deep in your mind
In my sleep I've tasted you
Intoxicated by your every move

(Give it up, Gimme)
Who could take it?
(Give it up, Gimme)
I guess I'll shake it, but
No-one touches all you are
Strip to show me all you are

Let me show you how you make me feel
(I've got my finger on the trigger)

[Hutchence/Saber]

It's so strange
How my life's changed
I know nothing
About the people that I touched

Heard a story
It sounded easy
If you don't care
Then you're lying through your teeth

I was shook up
Intoxicated
Drank the juices
Of the possibilities

I'm so alive

If you told me
Nothing's perfect
Hearts are broken
Nothing's free

I could show you
Why it's worth it
That's the way that it's meant to be

It's too strange
How your life's changed
You know nothing
About the people that you've touched

Someone told me
Life is easy
Hearts were bleeding and breaking
They were lying through their teeth

If you told me
Nothing's perfect
Hearts are broken
Nothing's free

I will show you
Why it's worth it
And that's the way that it's meant to be

If you told me
Nothing's perfect
Hearts are broken
Nothing's free

I could show you
Why it's worth it
That's the way that it's meant to be

Heard a story
It sounded easy
Got a new skin and
I'm lying through my teeth
I was shook up
Intoxicated
I drank the juices of the possibilities

Of the possibilities

[Hutchence/Gill]

I'm never gonna make you suffer
If you want my better side
I'm gonna give you all my sugar
When it comes to taking the ride

I will never let your words be washed away
There are oceans to be named by you
Inside we lay in the shadows
Outside they push the skin parade

All the streets have turned from red to blue
It's probably gonna stay that way
Don't let me go
And stop you
If you're looking for a better view

Gonna take a ride
From here to heaven
Gonna take a ride
Get on the inside
Gonna take a ride
To eleventh heaven
Gonna take a ride
Get on the inside

Are we gonna kill the things
that mean the most
As a junkie and a jailer too
We're gonna recognise the faces
If we're searching for the life we knew

All the streets have turned from red to blue
It's probably gonna stay that way
Don't let me go
And stop you
If you're looking for a better view

Gonna take a ride
From here to heaven
Gonna take a ride
Get on the inside
Gonna take a ride
To eleventh heaven
Gonna take a ride
Get on the inside
All you people talking so lonely
Making plans that your daddy wanted
Setting it up for the biggest falling
How you gonna learn, learn to fake it?
Having trouble with the dirty make-up
Never gonna learn what
you're running from
Acting like the world just owes you
Looking for love in all the wrong places

Gonna take a ride
From here to heaven
Gonna take a ride
Get on the inside
Gonna take a ride
To eleventh heaven
Gonna take a ride
Get on the inside

[Hutchence/Gill]

Tell me something
I gotta know
All your troubles
I wanna own
I'm not preaching 'cause I'm full of sin
Nothing's secret that I have not done

Alone with your situation
Fear on the face you're saving

Kiss the warm knives as they dig for your soul
There in the corner of my dirty home
Take the silver: I've paid that price
Here's the scandal
They don't let the truth get in the way

Alone with your situation
Fear on the face you're saving

Don't you worry don't you run away
There are some things that we know will never change
Don't you worry don't you look away
There are some things that we know we'll have to change
Burning, teasing, searching, fever, twisting,
turning
I'm the white truth dealer

Alone with your situation
Fear on the face you're saving

[Hutchence/Simenon]

You put your heart
With trust
Into my hands
I held so tight
Kept you protected from things

Did you ever think about it
Did you ever cry about it
Would you ever, ever doubt it

All I'm saying
Is come around
Tell me 'bout
The life you found

I put my heart
With trust
Into your hands
One day, changes come
Some pain and rain comes falling down

Did you ever think about it
Don't say it
Did you ever lie about it
Don't say it
Could you ever live without it

All I'm saying
Is come around
Tell me 'bout
The life you found
Tell me 'bout the life you found

We search endlessly
For answers to war and pain
We love the nights
Some days we laugh, feel like it's alright

Did you ever think about it
Don't say it
Did you ever cry about it
Don't say it
Could you ever live without it

All I'm saying
Is come around
Tell me 'bout
The one you found
All I'm saying
Is come around
Tell me bout
The one you found

[Hutchence/Gill]

Yeah we're just watching history
Now that the dogs are barking
Take a picture for your children
Make it real in FujiColor
Life in the junkyard's hard
Even when the dogs are sleeping
But if you win you lose the next spin
Madame, monsieurs, rien ne va plus

I watch the black and white bleeding
Don't you know the pain I'm in
I've been working all week
I've been thinking on my feet
And I've come to the end of my losing streak

Take a straight line
Take a straight line
Take a straight line
Take a straight line

Wave goodbye to your innocence
Sell it to the highest bidder
In a tight spot call for assistance
Is that American Express?
Get me out of here

I watch the black and white bleeding
Don't you know the pain I'm in
I've been working all week
I've been thinking on my feet
And I've come to the end of my losing streak

Take a straight line
Take a straight line
Take a straight line
Take a straight line

I'm up the top, looking down
Everybody looks just like ants
It would be so easy

[Hutchence/Saber]

It wouldn't be right to take it
It wouldn't be right lying down
I'm sick of the dogs outside my window
That's right
Take a look
You've been with a hook stuck into me

So baby it's alright
So baby it's alright
So baby it's alright
So baby it's alright

Look at the mess I'm makin'
Look at that mess across your face
As bitterness started showin'
Five years
No-one hears
Just another night too scared to bleed

So baby it's alright
So baby it's alright
So baby it's alright
So baby it's alright

Give you some time to feel it
I tangled you up in flesh and blood
Just to scared of where I took you
Spotlight blue to red crashin' in your head

So baby it's alright
So baby it's alright
So baby it's alright
So baby it's alright
So baby it's alright, it's alright
So baby it's alright, it's alright
So baby it's alright, it's alright
So baby it's alright, it's alright

It's alright
It's alright
To fall into your arms

[Hutchence/Gill]

I'm not keeping time
Get me outta here
Folding up my crimes
Ready for what's said to me

All that glitters shine
Love that new attraction
Animal inside
Leads me to the conclusion

Don't save me from myself
Don't save me from myself

I listen to the wind
And mystery comes alive
Don't tie me up again
Separate love from possession

Does all that glitters shine
Love that new attraction
Animal inside
Leads me to the conclusion

Don't save me from myself
Don't save me from myself

[Hutchence/Gill]

Oh give her the summer
Let her live another
She warms to the kiss of goodbye
Her momma took a preacher
Her daddy pays for lovers
Her eyes like a winter sky

Hear the echoes
Calling for the secrets we hide

She's flirting for England
She's flirting for England
She's flirting for England
She's flirting for England

She comes to the party
On a kiss don't tell pony
And lets me have the first of her sighs
Tricks came so easy
But you know she keeps your secrets
The tracks of the tears she will hide

Oh voices
Calling for the secrets we hide

She's flirting for England
She's searching for England
She's flirting, flirting, flirting
She's a complicated cookie
She's flirting, flirting, flirting
She's a complicated cookie

[Hutchence/Gill]

Strip away the bones and skin
Looking for what lies within
See the stars so cold above
Makes no sense of your flesh and blood

You walked the longest walk
Talked the toughest talk
You were outside, something inside
Took away the words, want to hear again
You were outside, something inside

All of the days we thought would come
All of the words we thought had gone
All of the pain and pleasure gone
Without you

Strip away the bones and skin
Show me what lies within
Would you be the one that I love
Makes no sense of your flesh and blood

You walked the longest walk
Talked the toughest talk
You were outside, something inside
Took away the words, want to live again
You were outside, something inside

All of the days we thought would come
All of the words we thought had gone
All of the pain and pleasure gone
Without you

We'd be making love
Make it right

All of these we thought would come
All of the words we thought had gone
All of the pain and pleasure gone
Without you

[Hutchence/Gill]

Saw a million pieces
Of the shape I'm in
Hanging from a chandelier
Have a taste of everything
Nothing gonna get me crying out for more
Seen nothing to seduce me
Seen it all before

He's another leader
Pretty head on the block
Got another axe to grind
If the dust ain't hard
Can he taste the money dripping off the tongue
All is fair in love and war
With a cold heart and a smoking gun

Sooth me
Sue me
Sooth me
Sue me

Put the pieces back together
Every moment back together

In your quiet moments
Looking back in tears
Can I count the nights you've lived
That you'd live again
Looking for the real thing to even up the score
Finding out you're lonely
With an open door

Sooth me
Sue me

I guess I lied too

I saw a million pieces
Of the shape I'm in
Hanging from a chandelier
Put the pieces back together

Pussy cat, pussy cat
Where have you been?
I've been down to London
To see the queen

[Hutchence/Saber]

She got the future wrapped up inside her
Every day without her feels like a crime
He wants to show her over and over
The way two people turn into one
Just keep breathing, breathing, breathing,
breathing

Baby come closer whisper your secrets
I'll tell you yours if you tell me mine
Well here comes the reason deep in your nature
We're creatures always trying to prove love

Just keep breathing, breathing, breathing,
breathing
Just keep breathing, breathing, breathing

She got the future wrapped up inside her
Every day without her feels like a crime
He wants to show her over and over
The way two people turn into one

Just keep breathing, breathing, breathing,
breathing
Just keep breathing, breathing, breathing

Breathe out, breathe out, breathe out

[Hutchence/Gill]
(feat. Bono)

Are you gonna wake again?
Are you gonna take it down?
Oh babe, I don't wanna deal it
Oh, make it alright
Gimme some, my love
Away, away, away

I just wanna slide away and come alive again
I just wanna slide away and come alive again
I will see that love again, and find a life again
I just wanna slide away and come alive again

I wanted to let it go
Just couldn't let it go
I wanted to let it go
Just couldn't let you go

I would catch you
(Just couldn't let you go)
I'd catch you as you fall
(Just couldn't let it go)
I would catch you
(Just couldn't let you go)
I'd catch you if I heard your call

But you tore a hole in space
Like a dark star, falls from grace
You burn across the sky
And I would find you wings to fly
And I would catch you
I would catch your fall

I just wanna slide away and come alive again
I just wanna slide away and come alive again
I will see that love again, and find a life again
I just wanna slide away and come alive again
