"Aujourd'hui, rien ne ressemble à ce mystère du premier jour, à cette violence tendre qui pousse à arracher au spectacle des êtres une personne, une seule, et partir avec elle à l'assaut des rues et des étoiles, se jeter dans son rêve, arpenter sa peau et son histoire et croire que l'on devient invincible." (Yves Simon, la dérive des sentiments)
See the mirror in your eyes; See the truth behind your lies Your lies are haunting me See the reason in your eyes Giving answer to the why: Your eyes are haunting me!
Falling in & out of love in love, in love Falling in & out of love your love, your love
Falling in & out of love in love, in love Falling in & out of love your love, your love
See the mirror in your eyes; see the truth behind your lies Your lies are haunting me see the reason in your eyes Giving answer to the why: Your eyes are haunting me!
Falling in & out of love in love, in love Falling in & out of love your love, your love
Falling in & out of love in love, in love Falling in & out of love your love, your love in love; in love; in love
Why can't you see it? Why can't you feel? In & out of love; each time. Why can't you feel it? Why can't you see it? In & out of love; It keep keep runnin'; It keep keep fallin'; Let it fade away.
Reckless and weary,
The truth has been buried,
Held down by the hand,
That refuses to carry.
The burden you built,
The lies, do you hear me?
The insult, the white flag,
You refuse to carry.
I'm letting you go,
And all that you showed me.
I'm letting you know,
That you don't control me.
The feeling is cold,
And life is unfolding.
Reckless and weary,
I'm desperately holding on.
So if you can't get a word in,
Its because I don't care what you think,
Don't be alone inside,
A world that's filled with make-believe.
Broke! Inside,
This life, you can never be reborn within,
I came this far erase my scars.
Fight! This time,
Inside, take a break from the lie you live,
I came this far, erase my scars.
Find my control,
Find reasons to beat this,
Find truth below,
The lies and the wreckage.
I can't let go,
I'm too close, too restless,
I'm letting you know,
I'm far too aggressive.
So if you can't get a word in,
Its because I don't care what you think,
Don't be alone inside,
A world that's filled with make-believe.
Broke! Inside,
This life, you can never be reborn within,
I came this far erase my scars.
Fight! This time,
Inside, take a break from the lie you live,
I came this far erase my scars.
Five years ago,
My life was affected,
By years of hope and learning life lessons.
You let me know,
By leaving me helpless,
What then was unknown is now unprotected.
I'm so!
Broke! Inside,
This life, you can never be reborn within,
I came this far erase my scars.
Fight! This time,
Inside, take a break from the lie you live, I came this far, erase my scars.
Et si tu crois que j'ai eu peur
C'est faux
Je donne des vacances à mon cœur
Un peu de repos
Et si tu crois que j'ai eu tort
Attends
Respire un peu le souffle d'or
Qui me pousse en avant
Et
Fais comme si j'avais pris la mer
J'ai sorti la grand-voile
Et j'ai glissé sous le vent
Fais comme si je quittais la terre
J'ai trouvé mon étoile
Je l'ai suivie un instant
Sous le vent
Et si tu crois que c'est fini
Jamais
C'est juste une pause, un répit
Après les dangers
Et si tu crois que je t'oublie
Écoute
Ouvre ton corps aux vents de la nuit
Ferme les yeux
Et
Fais comme si j'avais pris la mer
J'ai sorti la grand-voile
Et j'ai glissé sous le vent
Fais comme si je quittais la terre
J'ai trouvé mon étoile
Je l'ai suivie un instant
Sous le vent
Et si tu crois que c'est fini
Jamais
C'est juste une pause, un répit
Après les dangers
Fais comme si j'avais pris la mer
J'ai sorti la grand-voile
Et j'ai glissé sous le vent
Fais comme si je quittais la terre
J'ai trouvé mon étoile
Je l'ai suivie un instant
Fais comme si j'avais pris la mer
J'ai sorti la grand-voile
Et j'ai glissé sous le vent
Fais comme si je quittais la terre
J'ai trouvé mon étoile
Je l'ai suivie un instant
Sous le vent
Sous le vent
Yo pensaba que este mundo era real Siempre acabo imaginando otro lugar Y me miras suplicando la verdad Y hace tiempo que no me hundo en el mar
Cuando lloro lo intento disimular La belleza que tu escondes Yo no la puedo ocultar
Te has perdido y ya la has hecho de nuevo Me has encontrado y has salido del fuego Puedo sentir que invade el miedo en tu pecho Juré por siempre no frenar y acelero
Sálvame Que esto puede conmigo Soy mi pior enemigo
Sálvame Soy mi peor enemigo No es lo que yo he elegido
Me has lanzado el salvavidas Has prometido lealtad No me importa lo que digas Contigo siempre voy a estar
Sálvame Que esto puede conmigo Soy mi peor enemigo
Sálvame Soy mi peor enemigo No es lo que yo he elegido
Sálvame Que esto puede conmigo Soy mi peor enemigo
Sálvame Soy mi peor enemigo (soy mi peor enemigo) No es lo que yo he elegido
Yo pensaba que este mundo era real Siempre acabo imaginando otro lugar
Fragile, like a baby in your arms
Be gentle with me, I'd never willingly do you harm
Apologies are all you seem to get from me
But just like a child, you make me smile when you care for me
And you know
It's a question of lust, it's a question of trust
It's a question of not letting what we've built up crumble to dust
It is all of these things and more
That keep us together
Independence is still important for us though
(We realise)
It's easy to make the stupid mistake of letting go
(Do you know what I mean?)
My weaknesses, you know each and every one
(It frightens me)
But I need to drink more than you seem to think before I'm anyone's
And you know
It's a question of lust, it's a question of trust
It's a question of not letting what we've built up crumble to dust
It is all of these things and more
That keep us together
Kiss me goodbye when I'm on my own
But you know that I'd rather be home
It's a question of lust, it's a question of trust
It's a question of not letting what we've built up crumble to dust
It is all of these things and more
That keep us together
It's a question of lust, it's a question of trust
It's a question of not letting what we've built up crumble to dust
It is all of these things and more
That keep us together
It's a question of lust, it's a question of trust
It's a question of not letting what we've built up crumble to dust
It is all of these things and more
That keep us together
It's a question of lust, it's a question of trust
It's a question of not letting what we've built up crumble to dust
It is all of these things and more
That keep us together
Searchlights, rain on the road,
Waiting for the airport limousine,
Your time in this foreign land,
Is nearly over, I'll never forget how
Last night, after he called,
You held me like you'd never let me go,
But your eyes are happy now,
And you are beautiful, you're ready to leave me,
Homeward, back to your world,
Back to the one who is there,
Go now, but go in love,
For it's the only way;
And you'll be crying, laughing,
Half a world away,
You'll be crying, laughing,
For the love we have,
When you go away...
Long ride, holding her hand,
Looking all the words we cannot speak,
One mile to the boulevard,
And the aeroplane that's waiting to take you
Homeward, back to your land,
Back to the one who is there,
Go now, but go in love,
For it's the only way;
And you'll be crying, laughing,
Half a world away,
You'll be crying, laughing,
For the love we have,
But you must go,
Crying, laughing,
Half a world away,
You'll be crying, laughing,
Don't forget me love,
When you go away...
Fly little bird to Hiroshima
On the way a load
Speak the magic word to Hiroshima
Let the sky explode
Hiroshima!
Hiroshima!
There's a shadow of a man at Hiroshima,
Where he passed the moon.
In a wonderland at Hiroshima,
Where he died too soon
And the world remembers his face
Remembers the flame was
Hiroshima...
Fly little bird to Hiroshima
On the way a load
Speak the magic word to Hiroshima
Let the sky explode
And the world remembers his name
Remembers the flame was
Hiroshima, Hiroshima, Hiroshima...
Hiroshima was the flame!
Know his face, we know his name!
We're remembering the place was here!
Shadow of a man at Hiroshima,
Where he passed the moon.
In a wonderland at Hiroshima
Where he died too soon
And the world remembers his name
Remembers the flame was
Hiroshima, Hiroshima, Hiroshima...
Hiroshima!
Hiroshima!
Oh...no no no!
Oh, no, don't do it!
Fly little bird to Hiroshima
On the way a load
Speak the magic word to Hiroshima
Let the sky explode
Where will I find you on the other side of the tightrope writing about your fear, as a visit with the exiled writers. You survived all the burning fields of dissidents in the East and arrived as the beauty, into the gap with me.
Another brick is falling from the isle of you, another brick is falling down, from the isle of you.
Stay under the lama in our grand parade, it's not like Mardi Gras more like a passion, not a revolution in your sign. In the ashes of a knight the part was played, a drama gripped in fright behind the curtain. About those who stayed too long.
Another brick is falling from the isle of you, another brick is falling down, from the isle of you.
Can you imagine, a flower, with petals of steel and you as it's pistil, surrounded. Kannst du dir vorstellen
In 1965, Vietnam seemed like
Just another foreign war
But it wasn't, it was
Different in many ways
As so were those
Who did the fighting
In World War II
The average age of the
Combat soldier was twenty-six
In Vietnam, he was nineteen
In Vietnam, he was nineteen
In Vietnam, he was nineteen
In Vietnam, he was nineteen
N-n-n-n-nineteen
The heaviest fighting
Of the past two weeks
Continued today twenty-five
Miles northwest of Saigon
I really wasn't sure
What was going on
N-n-n-n-nineteen, nineteen
N-nineteen, nineteen
In Vietnam, the combat soldier
Typically served a twelve month tour of duty
But was exposed to hostile fire almost everyday
N-n-n-n-nineteen
N-n-n-n-nineteen
N-n-n-n-nineteen
N-n-n-n-nineteen
In Saigon, a US miltary spokesman
Said today, more than 720 troops
Were killed last week in
That sensitive border area
In all of South Vietnam
The enemy lost a total of
2,689 soldiers
All those who remember the war
They won't forget what they've seen
Destruction of men in their prime
Whose average age was nineteen
D-d-d-d-d-destruction
D-d-d-d-d-destruction
According to a Veteran's Administration study
Half of the Vietnam combat veterans suffered
From what psychiatrists call
Post traumatic stress disorder
Many vets complain of alienation, rage, or guilt
Some succumb to suicidal thoughts
Eight to ten years after coming home
Almost eight-hundred-thousand men
Are still fighting the Vietnam War
None of them received
A hero's welcome
Saigon, Saigon
S-s-s-s-s-Saigon

I can take the rain on the roof
Of this empty house
That don't bother me
I can take a few tears now and then
And just let 'em out
I'm not afraid to cry
Every once in a while
Even though goin' on with you gone
Still upsets me
There are days every now and again
I pretend I'm okay
But that's not what gets me
What hurts the most is being so close
And havin' so much to say
And watchin' you walk away
And never knowin' what could've been
And not seein' that lovin' you
Is what I was trying to do
It's hard to deal with the pain of losin' you
Everywhere I go
But I'm doing it
It's hard to force that smile
When I see our old friends and I'm alone
Still harder gettin' up, gettin' dressed
Livin' with this regret
But I know if I could do it over
I would trade, give away
All the words that I saved in my heart
That I left unspoken
What hurts the most is being so close
And havin' so much to say
And watchin' you walk away
And never knowin' what could've been
And not seein' that lovin' you
Is what I was trying to do, ooh
Hey, yeah
What hurts the most was being so close
And havin' so much to say
And watchin' you walk away
And never knowin' what could've been
And not seein' that lovin' you
Is what I was trying to do
Not seein' that lovin' you
And that's what I was trying to do, oh-oh
Born to push you around
Better just stay down
You pull away
He hits the flesh
You hit the ground
Mouth so full of lies
Tend to black your eyes
Just keep them closed
Keep praying
Just keep waiting
Waiting for the one
The day that never comes
When you stand up and feel the warmth
But the sunshine never comes, no
No, the sunshine never comes
Push you cross that line
Just stay down this time
Hide in yourself
Crawl in yourself
You'll have your time
God I'll make them pay
Take it back one day
I'll end this day
I'll splatter color on this gray
Waiting for the one
The day that never comes
When you stand up and feel the warmth
But the sunshine never comes
Love is a four letter word
And never spoken here
Love is a four letter word
Here in this prison
I suffer this no longer
I'll put an end to this, I swear
This, I swear
The sun will shine
This, I swear
This, I swear
This, I swear!
Mama told me when I was young
"Come sit beside me, my only son
And listen closely to what I say
And if you do this it'll help you some sunny day"
"Oh, take your time, don't live too fast
Troubles will come and they will pass
You'll find a woman and you'll find love
And don't forget, son, there is someone up above"
"And be a simple kind of man
Be something you love and understand
Baby, be a simple kind of man
Oh, won't you do this for me, son, if you can"
"Forget your lust for the rich man's gold
All that you need is in your soul
And you can do this, oh baby, if you try
All that I want for you, my son, is to be satisfied"
"And be a simple kind of man
Oh, be something you love and understand
Baby, be a simple kind of man
Oh, won't you do this for me, son, if you can"
Oh, yes, I will
"Boy, don't you worry, you'll find yourself
Follow your heart and nothing else
And you can do this, oh baby, if you try
All that I want for you, my son, is to be satisfied"
"And be a simple kind of man
Oh, be something you love and understand
Baby, be a simple kind of man
Oh, won't you do this for me, son, if you can?"
"Baby, be a simple, be a simple man
Oh, be something you love and understand
Baby, be a simple kind of simple man
Oh, won't you do this for me, son, if you can?"
We all fall apart
Buried deep behind the smile
We all have scars
There is truth in our lies
'Cause the shadow's never
Hiding who we are
We're stuck in a game
Of playing pretend
We're left in the ashes
Again and again
After all the smoke and mirrors
We are only saint and sinners
Waiting for Afterglow
Did we take a perfect heaven
Turn it into Armageddon
Waiting for Afterglow
Wide awake
But caught in the blind
It's like we don't see what's right in front of our eyes
We're stuck in a game
Of playing pretend
We're left in the ashes
Again and again
After all the smoke and mirrors
We are only saint and sinners
Waiting for Afterglow
Did we take a perfect heaven
Turn it into Armageddon
Waiting for Afterglow
In the Afterglow
In the Afterglow
Are we hoping for a miracle
Starting fires 'til we're burning out
Are we headed for the free fall
Are we hoping for a miracle
Starting fires 'til we're burning out
Are we headed for the free fall
After all the smoke and mirrors
We are only saint and sinners
Waiting for Afterglow
Did we take a perfect heaven
Turn it into Armageddon
Waiting for Afterglow
In the Afterglow
In the Afterglow
In the Afterglow
Waiting for Afterglow
You got a face not spoiled by beauty I have some scars from where I've been You've got eyes that can see right through me You're not afraid of anything they've seen
I was told that I would feel Nothing the first time I don't know how these cuts heal But in you I found a rhyme
If there is a light You can't always see And there is a world We can't always be If there is a dark That we shouldn't doubt And there is a light Don't let it go out
And this is a song A song for someone This is a song A song for someone
You let me in to a conversation A conversation only we could make You break and enter my imagination Whatever's in there it's yours to take
I was told I'd feel Nothing the first time You were slow to heal But this could be the night
If there is a light You can't always see And there is a world We can't always be If there is a dark Within and without And there is a light Don't let it go out
And this is a song A song for someone This is a song A song for someone
And I'm a long way From your hill of Calvary And I'm a long way From where I was, where I need to be
If there is a light You can't always see And there is a world We can't always be If there is a kiss I stole from your mouth And there is a light Don't let it go out
I found God
On the corner of First and Amistad
Where the west
Was all but won
All alone
Smoking his last cigarette
I said, "Where you been?"
He said, "Ask anything"
Where were you
When everything was falling apart?
All my days
Were spent by a telephone
That never rang
And all I needed was a call
That never came
To the corner of First and Amistad
Lost and insecure
You found me, you found me
Lying on the floor
Surrounded, surrounded
Why'd you have to wait?
Where were you? Where were you?
Just a little late
You found me, you found me
In the end
Everyone ends up alone
Losing her
The only one who's ever known
Who I am
Who I'm not, and who I wanna be
No way to know
How long she will be next to me
Lost and insecure
You found me, you found me
Lying on the floor
Surrounded, surrounded
Why'd you have to wait?
Where were you? Where were you?
Just a little late
You found me, you found me
For early morning
The city breaks
And I've been calling
For years and years and years and years
And you never left me no messages
You never send me no letters
You got some kind of nerve
Taking all I want
Lost and insecure
You found me, you found me
Lying on the floor
Where were you? Where were you?
Lost and insecure
You found me, you found me
Lying on the floor
Surrounded, surrounded
Why'd you have to wait?
Where were you? Where were you?
Just a little late
You found me, you found me
Why'd you have to wait
To find me? To find me?
My best friend gave me the best advice
He said each day's a gift and not a given right
Leave no stone unturned, leave your fears behind
And try to take the path less traveled by
That first step you take is the longest stride
(What if, what if?)
If today was your last day
And tomorrow was too late
Could you say goodbye to yesterday? (What if, what if?)
Would you live each moment like your last?
Leave old pictures in the past?
Donate every dime you have?
(What if, what if?)
If today was your last day
(What if, what if?)
(If today was your last day)
Against the grain should be a way of life
What's worth the prize is always worth the fight
Every second counts 'cause there's no second try
So live like you'll never live it twice
Don't take the free ride in your own life
(What if, what if?)
If today was your last day
And tomorrow was too late
Could you say goodbye to yesterday? (What if, what if?)
Would you live each moment like your last?
Leave old pictures in the past?
Donate every dime you have? (What if, what if?)
And would you call old friends you never see?
Reminisce old memories?
Would you forgive your enemies? (What if, what if?)
Would you find that one you're dreamin' of?
Swear up and down to God above
That you finally fall in love? (That you finally fall in love)
If today was your last day
If today was your last day
Would you make your mark by mending a broken heart?
You know it's never too late to shoot for the stars
Regardless of who you are
So do whatever it takes (Takes)
'Cause you can't rewind a moment in this life
Let nothin' stand in your way (Way)
'Cause the hands of time are never on your side
If today was your last day
And tomorrow was too late
Could you say goodbye to yesterday?
Would you live each moment like your last?
Leave old pictures in the past?
Donate every dime you have? (What if, what if?)
And would you call old friends you never see?
Reminisce old memories?
Would you forgive your enemies? (What if, what if?)
Would you find that one you're dreamin' of?
Swear up and down to God above
That you finally fall in love? (What if, what if?)
If today was your last day
City lights fade into black I watch them go Out of my life, deep inside I knew it from the start, I was always alone By your side
Ooh, I heard that you, ooh Once said, "Here's my heart Put a bomb inside it"
On-on-on-only love Only love can do this to you On-on-on-only love Only love can do this to you
Let it all go, it's for the best There is nothing to say Nothing except, "We were too young And our hearts nearly burst" But to find real love, you gotta lose it first
Ooh, I heard that you Once said, "Here's my heart Put a bomb inside it"
On-on-on-only love Only love can do this to you On-on-on-only love Only love can do this to you
City lights, watch them go back Like a video show in slow motion If you see me cry, I know you know why I never lie to say goodbye
If you see me cry, I know you know why I never lie to say goodbye
Hiye yana mphula ya bassissa ya matilo ni mate
Hiye yana mphula ya bassissa yo mbilo yango
There's a fire on the horizon
I can't put it out
Do I walk away or fight it
I can't turn around
I've been seeking higher healing from above
Do I need to hide this feeling I don't know
Khanina mino wo sela
Khauna weno yako tsandza mbilo
Khauna weno wo sela
Yako tsana ye wene
I'm waiting up for the rain tonight
To wash away my sorrow
Hear a voice from the other side
What great mother has to tell
I'll give myself to the rain tonight
'Cause we just can't always blossom
Waking up in peace I'll find
That summer turns to fall
Great mother knows it all
Hiye yana mphula ya bassissa ya matilo ni mate
(Great mother knows it all)
Hiye yana mphula ya bassissa yo mbilo yango
I can't hear you in the silence
Are you with me now?
In a sea of broken diamonds
Can you get me out?
Khanina mino wo sela
Khauna weno yako tsandza mbilo
Khauna weno wo sela
Yako tsana ye wene
I'm waiting up for the rain tonight
To wash away my sorrow
Hear a voice from the other side
What great mother has to tell
I'll give myself to the rain tonight
'Cause we just can't always blossom
Waking up in peace I'll find
That summer turns to fall
Great mother knows it all
Hiye yana mphula ya bassissa ya matilo ni mate
(Great mother knows it all)
Hiye yana mphula ya bassissa yo mbilo yango
(Great mother knows it all)
Hiye yana mphula ya bassissa yo mbilo yango
Hiye yana mphula ya bassissa yo mbilo...
I'm waiting up for the rain tonight
To wash away my sorrow
Hear a voice from the other side
What great mother has to tell
Great mother knows it all
