Already

Jesus Jones Already Lyrics
1.The Next Big Thing

The next big thing
Life can be so calm
The next big thing
So calm without you

I am waiting for the next big thing
Bring it on quick time to me
I tap my fingers to the same old thing
And dream of better things to see

I couldn't tell you what path it comes by
I couldn't tell you if it's plain to see
I couldn't tell you if it's gonna change the world
But i hope to hell it's gona chagne me

I am waiting fo rthe next big thing
I'm scared of all that's behind me
All my faith is in the next big thing
It's where i'll hide what you don't see

I couldn't tell you what clothes it wears
I couldn't tell yo if it's black or white
I couldn't tell you if it's gonna change the world
But any change at all would be alright

Round and round the world we go
Back and forth in time
Always looking for the new sensation
Bigger and better every time

So calm without you, without you, without you, without you


2.Run On Empty

Don't look up too quick
You'll see the sky is falling down on you
And when you run on empty
The ground will wait to swallow you

I have a dream returning every night
The goal is out of reach but still in sight
I'm getting thin but grinning every day
I run on empty too much, it's just my way

And in all your dreams doesn't it seem
That you're wearing lead boots, growing tree routes, caught in
quicksand?
I can see ahead the end of the line
This is some kind of meltdown just in time
I see declining empires fade away
The games were getting ugly anyway


3.Look Out Tomorrow

It's ok, it's ok, it's ok

Stand back look out tomorrow
Here comes a man without sorrow

I guess it's ok if today's unlike the rest
And it's ok that i'm not quite at my best
But if you're looking at me to set your mind at ease
Well then there's no way, let's just give it all a rest

I know you and all you're thinking
You know me, you know i'm sinking

Stand back look out tomorrow
Here comes a man without sorrow
Good thing looks are deceiving
Quick smile then i should be leaving

And so it's ok that i shouldn't say a word
And it's ok that what i think is never heard
But i'm looking at you to help me understand why it is ok
That i hide behind these words

I know you and all you're thinking
You know me, you know i'm sinking

It's ok, it's ok, it's ok

But it's ok, it's ok, it's ok, it's ok, it's ok,


4.Top Of The World

For the first time in my life
I know how i want to go
Spin through the warm air
To a thousand feet below
The top of the world's the place
Where the canyons fall below
And you can see from the there
To the depts of your soul

I'm not there yet
Not weak enough yet
I'll keep paying my bills
If this is as hard as it gets
On top of the world
On top of the world

Walk up to the edge
And the silence fills your head
You'll find right there
If you will lead or just be led

I'm not there yet
Not weak enough yet
Don't flatter me now

I'm not there yet
Not weak enough yet
Don't forgive all my sins
If this is as hard as it gets

I'm not there yet
Not weak enough yet
Keep my name in your book


5.Rails

You live your life like it's on rails
No choice where you go, you're on rails

We stumble through
And i think i am linked up to you
'cos i can never think of you without this sorow

What can you do
In the face of all your dreams
When your destination's never where it seemed, where it seemed

We like to think that we choose our fortune
Like spinning a whell
But with leaves on the track you tell me
How does it feel?


6.Wishing It Away

Live fast die young, the words of a fool it seems
Hell bent getting there, seeing nothing on the way
Where are you now, when all eyes would be on you
Dumbstruck, disappeared, leaving everything to do

You were wishing it away

Sail up the stream travel so far
But always get out of the boat
Sail up the stream travel far
But always leave the boat

Here in my hands; all that i could wish for
Timebomed, stick around see it all go up in smoke
With these very hands, i'll pull it all apart
I know in the end it'll sound like some sad joke

'cos i'll be wishing it away

Wishing it away
Wishing it away

Nothing is sacred, not life nor hapiness
Least of all is the world that we live in unless we make it pay

We're wishing it away


7.Chemical #1

Here it comes! here it comes! here it comes! here it comes!
It's adrenalin for me
That is waiting patiently
For when push comes to shove which it usually does for me

No time here to explain
All the many ways to gain
The sneak-up-behind, jump start your mind for free

And here it comes!

It's a little bit sad
But isn't it fun?
To spend a life chasing chemical #1
Isn't it fun?

The romantics out there say
That emotions aren't this way
But whatever the name, it feels the same to me

And here it comes!

Isn't it fun?


8.Motion

Reason you look for are reasons you find
For climbing a mountain, for taking a gamble,
To leave it all behind

Motion takes me

I have to have motion, i get release in motion
If i move i'll be fine
I've got to hit the right speed to shake off what i don't need
Be free from my mind

Reasons you look for are reasons you find
I have to have motion, i get release in motion
If i move i'll be fine


9.They're Out There

He doesn't have a friend just some occupations
Staring at the sky or at computer screens
It gets you in the neck, all this looking skywards
But every marty knows that you suffer in belief

But if only you could see that things that he has seen!
'cos he knows that he can tell you just what all this means

He knows, it's true that they're our there
He knows, it's true that they're our there
And there's very little faith left on this world

There's so much in the sky, it must be hiding something
He thinks that he's prepared and he's counting down the days

And if only you could see the things that he has seen!
'cos he's sure that he could tell you just what all this means

It's so easy when we sneer
And mock the faith that he holds dear
But just like us he's chasing dreams

If you look hard enough then you'll see it clearly
There's something that we need always coming from the sky

And there's very little faith left on this world


10.For A Moment

Free for a moment, high above
Just for a moment i am in the arms of love

If i could be all that i want to be
The greats of ths world would hang their heads in despair
If you could hear what i want you to hear
You'd think you couldn't breathe without that sound

And there's always something more that i should tell you
More lost that i am found
So i'm trying to clear my head so i'll be

If i could say all that i want to say
I'd hide in shame for years when i was done

But there's always something more that i should tell you
More lost than i am found
So i'm trying to clear my head so i'll be

And there' sthe rub in being human
It get in the way of all your dreaming


11.Addiction, Obsession And Me

It's addiction, it's obsession, it's a need to be me
It's addiction, it's obsession, so i can feel that i'm free

Born in a time that sanctions all desire
I fight my insticts all the way
Drawn to a strom of things i have to have
With patience like other virtues still in the way

I get enough of things to need them more
Like love and destruction to name but two
It's getting harder telling good from bad
With you senses asking was it good for you

It's addiction, it's obsession, it's a need to be me

There's so much i feel i have to have


12.Bruary

you e never going to say the things you want to say
The things you want to change will usually stay that way
The promises you break outweigh the ones you keep
The sky i told is blue is looking very grey

Nothing going to seem the way it seems to you
It never turns out quite the way you want it to
Paint upon the wall for the hundredth time
But what you try to hide will come shining though
But what you try to hide will come shining though

There so much you would do if you just had the time
Like try to write a song but in never rhymes (only sometimes)
You love to change the system but it works too well for you
If you didn't have to patience you could turn to crime

There something that you fell that you can explain
That makes you feel lost when it starts to rain
It bothers you the most when you are on your own
It whispers your intentions will all be in vain

The month you hate the most is always february


13.Together

When the sun's this bright
I have to blind myself with the light
I have to get too close
To the things that hurt me the most

When i'm pushed and pulled without ever knowning...

Why does it seem
I'm falling apart
Just tell me where to start
Show me how we'll be
Together, together

If you fail at so much
Would it hurt to fail again?
And if you've lost your touch
It's time to feel once again

When you're pushed and pulled without ever knowing why

I know
That you're going to save me in the end, in the end
I know
That you're going to save me in the end

So tell me why does it seem
I'm falling apart
Just tell me where to start
Show me how we'll be...


14.Man On The Moon

I never wrote a book like the ones i like to read
'cos aiming for the stars, well, it brings me to my knees
I thought i handled sin when it was sin that handled me
When i thought i saw the light
I couldn't see the wood for the trees

There's a man on the moon
And he says that he's not coming down
But he's thinking of you every time the world spins around

I could never eat enough so i bit the hand that fed
Always talked too much but most was left unsaid

I lost friends and influenced no-one
Announced the ending before it was over
Fought accusations that i was jaded
But i look at the stars and know their lights already faded
