There’s more besides Joyrides The little house in the countryside Understand Learn to demand Compromise And sometimes lie Get the balance right Get the balance right Be responsible Respectable Stable but gullible Concerned and caring Help the helpless But always remain Ultimately selfish Get the balance right Get the balance right When you think you’ve got a hold of it all You haven’t got a hold at all When you reach the top Get ready to drop Prepare yourself for the fall You’re gonna fall It’s almost predictable Almost Don’t turn this way Don’t turn that way Straight down the middle until next Thursday First to the left Then back to the right Twist and turn ‘til you’ve got it right Get the balance right Get the balance right Get the balance right Get the balance right Get the balance right Get the balance right Almost Compozitori: Martin Gore.

When I’m with you baby I go out of my head And I just can’t get enough And I just can’t get enough All the things you do to me And everything you said I just can’t get enough I just can’t get enough We slip and slide as we fall in love And I just can’t seem to get enough of We walk together We’re walking down the street And I just can’t get enough And I just can’t get enough Every time I think of you I know we have to meet And I just can’t get enough And I just can’t get enough It’s getting hotter, it’s a burning love And I just can’t seem to get enough of I just can’t get enough I just can’t get enough I just can’t get enough I just can’t get enough I just can’t get enough I just can’t […]

We are here We can love We share something I’m sure that you mean the world to me Your name was the one That was always chosen Your words and their kindness Have set me free Shame has a hold That’s kept us frozen You opened my eyes to a world That I could believe Words can leave you Broken inside You’ll have to decide I’m hanging on to my pride We are here We can love We share something I’m sure that you mean the world to me When you get what you need There’s no way of knowing What you’ll have Is another hole to feed The games that were played Have left us hoping The gift that we have – the life That we breathe This world can leave you Broken inside With nowhere to hide I’m hanging on to my pride We are here We’ve been […]

Can you feel a little love? As your bony fingers close around me Long and spindly death becomes me Heaven, can you see what I see? Hey, you pale and sickly child You’re death and living reconciled Been walking home a crooked mile Paying debt to karma you party for a living What you take won’t kill you But careful what you’re giving Mmm There’s no time for hesitating Pain is ready, pain is waiting Primed to do it’s educating Unwanted, uninvited kin It creeps beneath your crawling skin It lives without it lives within you Feel the fever coming, you’re shaking and twitching You can scratch all over But that won’t stop you itching Can you feel a little love? Can you feel a little love? Dream on, dream on Mmm, mmm, mmm Blame it on your karmic curse Or shame upon the universe It knows its lines, it’s […]

If you want control Without any pain How long will you suffer How long will you reign You see the friend that I knew Cannot be found Replaced by another Wearing his crown There’s a place where I go Without any sound Only you can reach me Only you’re allowed Then you’re so far away You’re so far from here Do you remember A time without tears When you’re falling I will catch you You don’t have to fall that far You can make it, I will be there You were broken from the start When you were a child You’d dream all day long You’d dream of the future Get lost in your songs Now that time is gone It’s lost for you now Words long forgotten Forgotten somehow When you’re falling I will catch you You don’t have to fall that far You can make it, I will […]

The angel of love was upon me And Lord I felt so small The legs beneath me weakened And I began to crawl Confused and contented I slithered around With feelings beyond me I was lost, I was found The angel of love was upon me And Lord I felt so weak I felt my tongue move in my mouth And I began to speak A strange kind of language I don’t understand A babbling fountain I couldn’t have planned Oh leave me here forevermore I’ve found the peace I’ve been searching for The angel of love was upon me And Lord I felt so high I swear I could have reached up Placed my hands upon the sky A radiant rainbow was following me around With elevated senses I could see and taste sound The angel of love was upon me And Lord I felt so clean Like a […]

I know it’s hard to reach you I know it’s hard to breathe I know it’s hard to be you sometimes I can’t imagine what that means This must be someone else’s story I can’t follow what you’ve planned How can this be about me Am I supposed to understand Like a ship on the ocean Heading out to sea You can hardly see it now It’s a lot like you Lost like me You’re still looking for redemption Still can’t find a trace If there is nothing after There’ll be no saving grace I’m giving you control now I need some kind of sign Come take away this sorrow now I gave you all that’s mine Like a ship on the ocean Heading out to sea You can hardly see it now It’s a lot like you Like a ship on the ocean Heading out to sea You can […]

I’m not sure What I’m looking for anymore I just know That I’m harder to console I don’t see who I’m trying to be Instead of me But the key Is a question of control Can you say What you’re trying to play anyway I just pay While you’re breaking all the rules All the signs that I find Have been underlined Devils thrive on the drive That is fuelled All this running around Well it’s getting me down Just give me a pain that I’m used to I don’t need to believe All the dreams you conceive You just need to achieve Something that rings true There’s a hole in your soul Like an animal With no conscience Repentance unknown Close your eyes Pay the price for your paradise Devils feed on the seeds That are sown Can’t conceal what I feel What I know is real No mistaking […]

(originally by David Bowie) ”I, I will be king And you, you will be queen Though nothing will drive them away We can beat them just for one day We can be heroes just for one day And you, you can be mean And I, I’ll drink all the time ‘Cause we’re lovers, and that is a fact Yes, we’re lovers, and that is that Though nothing will keep us together We could steal time just for one day We can be heroes forever and ever What d’you say? I, I wish you could swim Like the dolphins, like dolphins can swim Though nothing, nothing will keep us together We can beat them forever and ever Oh, we can be heroes just for one day I, I will be king And you, you will be queen Though nothing will drive them away We can be heroes, just for one day […]
