1.Spiralling
Ooo!
Ooo!
I'm waiting for my moment to come
I'm waiting for the movie to begin
I'm waiting for a revelation
I'm waiting for someone to count me in
Cos now I only see my dreams, in everything I touch
Feel their cold hands on, everything that I love
Cold like some, magnificant skyline
Out of my reach, but always in my eyeline now
We're tumbling down
We're spiralling
Tied up to the ground
We're spiralling
I fashioned you from jewels and stone
I made you in the image of myself
I gave you everything you wanted
So you would never know anything else
But everytime I reach for you, you slip through my fingers
Into cold sunlight, laughing at the things that
I had planned, the map of my world gets
Smaller as I sit here, pulling at the loose threads now
We're tumbling down
We're spiralling
Tied up to the ground
We're spiralling
(When we fall in love
We're just falling
In love with ourselves
We're spiralling)
Did you wanna be a winner？
Did you wanna be an icon？
Did you wanna be famous？
Did you wanna be the president？
Did you wanna start a war？
Did you wanna have a family？
Did you wanna be in love？
Did you wanna be in love？
(I never saw the light
I never saw the light
I waited up all night
But I never saw the light)
When we fall in love
We're just falling
In love with ourselves
We're spiralling
We're tumbling down
We're spiralling
Tied up to the ground
We're spiralling
Ooo!
2.The Lovers Are Losing
I dreamed I was drowning
In the river Thames
I dreamed I had nothing at all
Nothing but my own skin
I dreamed I was drifting
On the howling wind
I dreamed I had nothing at all
Nothing but my own skin
Slipped away from your open hand
Into the river
Saw your face looking back at me
I saw my past
And I saw my future
You take the pieces of the dreams that you have
'Cause you don't like the way they seem to be going
You cut them up and spread them out on the floor
You're full of hope as you begin rearranging
Put it all back together
But anyway you look at things
Looks like
The lovers are losing
I dreamed I was watching
A young lover's dance
I reached out to touch your hand
But I was watching from a distance
We cling to love like a skidding car
Clinched to the corner
I try to hold on to what we are
The more I squeeze the quicker we all are
You take the pieces of the dreams that you have
'Cause you don't like the way they seem to be going
You cut them up and spread them out on the floor
You're full of hope as you begin rearranging
Put it all back together
But anyway you look at things
Looks like
The lovers are losing
I dreamed I had nothing at all(nothing but my own skin)
I dreamed I had nothing at all(nothing but my own skin)
I dreamed I had nothing at all(nothing nut my own skin)
I dreamed I had nothing at all
You take the pieces of the dreams that you have
'Cause you don't like the way they seem to be going
You cut them up and spread them out on the floor
You're full of hope as you begin rearranging
Put it all back together
But anyway you look at things
Looks like
The lovers are losing
You take the pieces of the dreams that you have
'Cause you don't like the way they seem to be going
You cut them up and spread them out on the floor
You're full of hope as you begin rearranging
Put it all back together
But in the final reckoning
Looks like
The lovers are losing
3.Better Than This
Better Than This
Is this what you meant？
Is this
What you dreamed of？
When you were making
Your plans
Shaking the dirt off？
Do you feel like you
And I belong？
(Oh, ah, oh)
Just keep your eyes
On the road
And nothing can go wrong
You could do so much
Better than this
You could do so much
Better than this
I've been checking my sums
Oh where did the time go？
Holding my photograph up
To the window
Through the paper
A refracted sun
(Oh, ah, oh)
I can see all the things
I wish that I'd done
You can hang your hopes
On the bedsits masses
You can put your faith
In the foreign
You can tell yourself
You can do your best
You could do so much
Better than this
Get a grip on yourself
Get a grip on yourself
Could have been something
But you're too late
And you wouldn't want it anyway
Just a photograph
From the wrong time
'Cause there
Is no soap star
Holding your hand
You can see yourself
In a freeze-frame
Must be someone else
Using your name
And everyone
Will be the same
And everyone will go
And everywhere
You'll see your name
In every shop window
It's better than this
You could do so much
Better than this
You could do so much
Better than this
You could do so much
Better than this
4.You Haven't Told Me Anything
You Haven't Told Me Anything
In a pearl grey room one afternoon
In one afternoon what are you going to do？
I hang on your words but there's nothing new
You took a beautiful thing
Pull off a wing, pull off a wing
A safety pin
They never shine quite as bright again
But you haven't told me anything
That I didn't already know
No you haven't said a single thing
That I didn't already know
Everything I love is stuck in the mud
Stuck in the mud, stuck in a rut
Not a piece in your puzzle or a paper cut
So same time next week
A kiss on the cheek, kiss on the cheek
And say after me
Everything's tied up nice and neat
But you haven't told me anything
That I didn't already know
No you haven't sold me anything
That I didn't already own
I feel for you
I really do
Nothing turns out
like you want it too
No words can mend
This fix I'm in
Hearing those words
That I'll never play
Right between the eyes
I don't feel a thing
But you haven't told me anything
That I didn't already know
No you haven't said a single thing
That I didn't already know
No you haven't told me anything
No you haven't told me anything
No you haven't told me anything
No you haven't told me anything
5.Perfect Symmetry
I shake through the wreckage for signs of life
Scrolling through the paragraphs
Clicking through the photographs
I wish I could make sense of what we do
Burning down the capitols
Wisest of the animals
Who are you, what are you living for
Tooth for tooth, maybe we'll go one more
This life, is lived in perfect symmetry
What I do, that will be done to me
Write page after page of analysis
Looking for the final score
We're no closer than we were before
Who are you, what are you fighting for
Holy truth, brother I chose this mortal life
Lived in perfect symmetry
What I do, that will be done to me
As the needle, slips into the run out groove
Love, maybe you feel it too
And maybe you find, life is unkind
and over so soon
There is no golden gate
There's no heaven waiting for you
Oh boy you otta leave this town
get out while you can
the needle's running out
The voices in the streets you love
everything is better when you hear that shout
Woooaohhh
Woooaohhh
Woooaohhh
spineless dreamers, hide in churches
pieces of pieces of rush hour buses
I dream in emails, worn out phrases
mile after mile of just empty pages
wrap yourself around me
wrap yourself around me
As the needle, slips into the run out groove
Maybe I'll feel it too
maybe you'll feel it too
maybe you'll feel it too
maybe you'll feel it too
I dream in emails, worn out phrases
mile after mile of just empty pages
6.You Don't See Me
Like beautiful dolls
All made up and bright
Radiant people in splintering light
All moving at the speed of life
Reflecting in each others' eyes
But you're moving so fast through this beautiful scene
You don't see me
You don't see me
Oh truly we are, a fortunate few
Who turn on your axis, revolve around you
All spinning outwards from your sun
Passing your reflection on
In your hurry to grasp everything that you see
You don't see me
You don't see me
You don't see me
No, you don't see me
Such a beautiful view
I guess you've seen it all
But you, you see nothing at all
Such a beautiful view
Shining so bright
Shining so bright, so bright
All moving at the speed of life
Reflecting in each others' eyes
But you're moving with such irresistible speed
You don't see me
You don't see me
You don't see me
No, you don't see me
No, you don't see me
Oh oh...Oooo, ooo...
7.Again ＆ Again
Again And Again
Was it all in real time
Or was it just in my mind
Or was I just a ghost passing through you？
Clinging to the wreckage
Till I got the message
Hanging at the edge of the room
Give me something to dream
Give me half of your bitterest pill
Something from under the surface
You actually feel
We say these words again and again
But they still sound the same
It was in your eyes, in your eyes
They were just easy lies
The lightest words are heavy
And promises are easy
And no one's ever happy or sad for very long
But just because I said it
It doesn't mean I meant it
I guess that was the way all along
I'm just shaping the sound
I'm just turning the syllables round
Dipping my toe in the water
And watching you drown
We say these words again and again
But they still sound the same
It was in my eyes, in my eyes
They were just easy lies
And it's been a long time waiting
And it's been a lifetime in the making
Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
We said when you are alone and afraid
I will come to your aid
Was it just a dream, just a dream
'Cause was it real to me
We say these words again and again
But they still sound the same
Say these words again and again
And again and again
8.Playing Along
At the start of the news day, the fires begin
In words and in pictures, but I'm not listening
I'm not taking it in
I'm going to go to the country, where nothing goes on
Going to bury my head, where I can't hear the sound of bombs
Playing along
Me, I'm just playing along
You and I, so many good people all
Just playing along
I'm going to go to a bar, where is the jukebox is on
Going to shut out the noise, with a rock'n'roll song
Playing along
I'm going to turn up the volume
I'm going to turn up the volume
I'm going to turn up the volume
Till I can't even think
Tell us a tale of the proud and the free
Sing us a swingtime American melody
From 'Follow The Fleet'
Me, I'm just playing along
You and I, a billion people all
Just playing along
I'm going to turn up the volume
I'm going to turn up the volume
I'm going to turn up the volume
Till I can't even think
I'm going to turn up the volume
I'm going to turn up the volume
I'm going to turn up the volume
Till I can't even think
I'm going to turn up the volume
Till I can't even think
I'm going to turn up the volume
Till I can't even think
I'm going to turn up the volume
Till I can't even think
I'm going to turn up the volume
Till I can't even think
I'm going to turn up the volume
Till I can't even think
I'm going to turn up the volume
Till I can't even think
I'm going to turn up the volume
Till I can't even think
9.Pretend That You're Alone
We are just the monkeys, who fell out of the trees
We are blisters on the earth
We are not the flowers, we're the strangling weeds
In the meadow
And love is just our way of looking out for ourselves
When we don't want to live alone
So step into the vacuum, tear off your clothes
And be born again
Pretend that you're alone now
And everything's gone
Just animal reflex
There's no one looking on
Forget about fashion
Forget about the law
Pretend that you're alone now
I wonder what I'd do, if I could wake up every morning
With a clean slate
I'd burn through the cities and tear through the towns
Cos there's no deals to make
So break out of the cages, the delicate structures
We cling to all our lives
Cos we are just the monkeys, who fell out of the trees
When we were trying to fly
Pretend that you're alone now
And everything's gone
Just primal desire
No right and no wrong
Forget about the future
Forget about blame
Pretend that you're alone now
Pretend that you're alone now
She's not waiting for tomorrow
And she has no love in her eyes
Oh no, I wanna come down right now
Pull over, I wanna get out right now
Oh oh!
Pretend that you're alone now
And everything's gone
Just animal reflex
There's no one looking on
Forget about religion
Forget about shame
Pretend that you're alone now
No numbers in your phone now
There's nothing going on
Just primal desire
No right and no wrong
Forget about fashion
Forget about fame
Pretend that you're alone now
Pretend that you're alone now
Pretend that you're alone now
Do do do do...
10.Black Burning Heart
Black Burning Heart
I wish that I could be
In the cellars of the sea
And disappear in them
Never to be seen again
Leave this life
Its unrelenting appetite
For feeding off the weak
Who never had their turn to speak
The sky will be my shroud
A monument of cloud
If we could turn back
You can paper over the crack
But it will return now
And your heart will burn black
Give me your hand
Cut the skin, let me in
The molecules of us
Bleeding into one again
The sky will be my shroud
A cenotaph of cloud
If we could turn back
You can paper over the crack
But it will return now
And your heart will burn black
Forgotten my way home
Forgotten everything that I know
Every day a false start
And it burns my heart
I know everything you said was right and I suppose
Everything is here forever till it goes
You gave it all away, kept nothing for yourself
Just a picture on the shelf
Je souhaiterai m'immerger dans les profondeurs des mers
Y disparaître pour ne plus jamais être vu
Burning up
Now I'm racing down a road I don't recognise
I realise I've forgotten my way home
Forgotten everything that I know
Every day a false start
And it burns my heart
Turn back
11.Love Is The End
Now is the time of our comfort and plenty
These are the days we've been working for
Nothing can touch us and nothing can harm us
No, nothing goes wrong anymore
Singing a song with your feet on the dashboard
The cigarette streaming into the night
These are the things that I want to remember
I want to remember you by
It won't come again
Cos love is the end
Oh no, my friend
Love is the end
I took off my clothes and I ran to the ocean
Looking for somewhere to start anew
And when I was drowning in that holy water
All I could think of was you
Woah, my friend
Love is the end
So lets not pretend
Cos love is the end
Take it back, don't let it die
Or raise again the fallen night
Because I still do depend on you
So don't say those words, that run me through
Woah, oh oh
Love is the end
So lets not pretend
Cos love is the end
And so I tread the only road
The only road I know
Nowhere to go, but home
Nowhere to go
Maybe our time is up
But still you can't look back
But all the principles of love
Don't say those words
Don't say those words
1.Spiralling
Ooo!
Ooo!
I'm waiting for my moment to come
I'm waiting for the movie to begin
I'm waiting for a revelation
I'm waiting for someone to count me in
Cos now I only see my dreams, in everything I touch
Feel their cold hands on, everything that I love
Cold like some, magnificant skyline
Out of my reach, but always in my eyeline now
We're tumbling down
We're spiralling
Tied up to the ground
We're spiralling
I fashioned you from jewels and stone
I made you in the image of myself
I gave you everything you wanted
So you would never know anything else
But everytime I reach for you, you slip through my fingers
Into cold sunlight, laughing at the things that
I had planned, the map of my world gets
Smaller as I sit here, pulling at the loose threads now
We're tumbling down
We're spiralling
Tied up to the ground
We're spiralling
When we fall in love
We're just falling
In love with ourselves
We're spiralling
Did you wanna be a winner？
Did you wanna be an icon？
Did you wanna be famous？
Did you wanna be the president？
Did you wanna start a war？
Did you wanna have a family？
Did you wanna be in love？
Did you wanna be in love？
I never saw the light
I never saw the light
I waited up all night
But I never saw the light
When we fall in love
We're just falling
In love with ourselves
We're spiralling
We're tumbling down
We're spiralling
Tied up to the ground
We're spiralling
Ooo!
2.The Lovers Are Losing
I dreamed I was drowning
in the river Thames
I dreamed I had nothing at all
nothing but my own skin
I dreamed I was drifting
On the howling wind
I dreamed I had nothing at all
Nothing but my own skin
Slipped away from your open hands
Into river
Saw your face looking back at me
I saw my past, and I saw my future
You take the pieces of the dreams that you have
Cos you don't like the way they seem to be going
You cut them up and spread them out on the floor
You're full of hope as you begin rearranging
Put it all back together
But any way you look at this
Looks like
The lovers are losing
I dreamed I was watching
The young lovers dance
I reached out to touch your hair
But I was watching from a distance
We cling to love like a skidding car
Clings to a corner
I tried to hold onto what we are
The more I squeeze, the quicker we all are
You take the pieces of the dreams that you have
Cos you don't like the way they seem to be going
You cut them up and spread them out on the floor
You're full of hope as you begin rearranging
Put it all back together
But any way you look at this
Looks like
The lovers are losing
I dreamed I had nothing at all (Nothing but my own skin)
I dreamed I had nothing at all (Nothing but my own skin)
I dreamed I had nothing at all (Nothing but my own skin)
I dreamed I had nothing at all (Nothing at all)
You take the pieces of the dreams that you have
Cos you don't like the way they seem to be going
You cut them up and spread them out on the floor
You're full of hope as you begin rearranging
Put it all back together
But anyway you look at slin
Looks like
The lovers are losing
You take the pieces of the dreams that you have
Cos you don't like the way they seem to be going
You cut them up and spread them out on the floor
You're full of hope as you begin rearranging
Put it all back together
But in the final reckoning
Looks like
The lovers are losing
I dreamed I was drifting
3.Better Than This
Is this what you meant？
Is this what you dreamed of？
When you were making your plans,
Shaking the dirt off？
Do you feel like you and I belong？
(oh ah oh)
Just keep your eyes on the road and nothing can go wrong
You could do so much better than this
You could do so much better than this
I've been checking my sums
Oh where did the time go？
Holding my photograph up to the window
Through the paper, a refracted sun
(oh ah oh)
I can see all the things I wish that I'd done
You can hang your hopes on the bedsits
You can put your faith in the foreign
You can tell yourself you can do your best
You could do so much better than this
Get a grip on yourself
Get a grip on yourself
Could have been something, but you're too late
And you wouldn't want it anyway
Just a photograph from the wrong time
'Cause there is no soap star holding your hand
You can see yourself in a freeze-frame
Must be someone else using your name
And everyone will be the same
And everyone will never go
And everywhere, you'll see your name
In every shop window
It's better than this
You could do so much better than this
You could do so much better than this
You could do so much better than this
4.You Havent Told Me Anything
In the cold grey room
One afternoon, one afternoon
What are you gonna do
Having your way
But there's nothing new
You took a beautiful thing
Pull off a wing, pull off a wing
A safety pin
It never shone quite as bright again
But you haven't told me anything
That I didn't already know
No you haven't said a single thing
That I didn't already know
It's a thing I love
Stuck in the mud, stuck in the mud
Stuck in a rut
Got a ？ in your person or
A paper cut
Same time next week
A kiss on the cheek, kiss on the cheek
And say all done
Everything's tied up nice and neat
But you haven't told me anything
That I didn't already know
No you haven't said a single thing
That I didn't already know
I feel for you
I really do
Nothing turns out
like you want it too
No words can mend
This fix I'm in
Hearing those words
That I'll never play
Right between the eyes
I don't feel a thing
But you haven't told me anything
That I didn't already know
No you haven't said a single thing
That I didn't already know
No you haven't told me anything
No you haven't told me anything
No you haven't told me anything
No you haven't told me anything
5.Perfect Symmetry
I shake through the wreckage for signs of life
Scrolling through the paragraphs
Clicking through the photographs
I wish I could make sense of what we do
Burning down the capitals
The wisest of the animals
Who are you？ What are you living for？
Tooth for tooth, maybe we'll go one more
This life is lived in perfect symmetry
What I do, that will be done to me
Read page after page of analysis
Looking for the final score
We're no closer than we were before
Who are you？ What are you fighting for？
Holy truth？ Brother I choose this mortal life
Lived in perfect symmetry
What I do, that will be done to me
As the needle slips into the run-out groove
Love - maybe you'll feel it too
And maybe you'll find life is unkind
And over so soon
There is no golden gate
There's no heaven waiting for you
Oh boy you ought to leave this town
Get out while you can the meter's running down
The voices in the streets you love
Everything is better when you hear that sound
Spineless dreamers hide in churches
Pieces of pieces of rush hour buses
I dream in emails, worn-out phrases
Mile after mile of just empty pages
Wrap yourself around me
Wrap yourself around me
As the needle slips into the run-out groove
Maybe you'll feel it too
Maybe you'll feel it too
6.You Dont See Me
Like beautiful dolls
All made up and bright
Radiant people in splintering light
All moving at the speed of life
Reflected in each other's eyes
But you're moving so fast
Through this beautiful scene
You don't see me
You don't see me
Oh truly we are a fortunate few
Who turn on your axis, revolve around you
All spinning outwards from your sun
Passing your reflection on
In your hurry to grasp
Everything that you see
You don't see me
You don't see me
You don't see me
No, you don't see me
Such a beautiful view
I guess you've seen it all
But you, you see nothing at all
Such a beautiful view
Shining so bright
Shining so bright, so bright
All moving at the speed of life
Reflected in each other's eyes
But you're moving with such irresistible speed
You don't see me
You don't see me
You don't see me
No, you don't see me
No, you don't see me
7.Again ＆ Again
Was it all in real time
Was it just in my mind
Or was I just a ghost passing through you
Clinging to the wreckage
Until I got the message
Hanging at the edge of the room
Give me something to ？
Give me a little bit of respect
Something from under the surface
That I surely feel
We say these words again and again
It doesn't sound the same
It was in my eyes in your eyes
They were just easy lies
The lightest words are heavy
A promise isn't easy
And no one's ever happy
Or sad for very long
But just because I said it
It doesn't mean I meant it
I guess that was the way all along
I'm just shaping the sound
I'm just turning the syllables round
Tipping my toe in the water
And watching you drown
We say these words again and again
It doesn't sound the same
It was in my eyes in your eyes
They were just easy lies
It's been a long time waiting
And it's been a lifetime in the making
Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
I found you out you know how to play ？？？
I looked into your eyes
Was it just a dream, just a dream
Or was it really real
We say these words again and again
It doesn't sound the same
Say these words again and again and
Again and again
8.Playing Along
At the start of the news day
The fires begin
In words and in pictures
But I'm not listening
I'm not taking it in
I'm going to go to the country
Where nothing goes on
Going to bury my head
Where I can't hear the sound of bombs
Playing along
Me, I'm just playing along
You and I, so many good people
All just playing along
I'm gonna go to a bar
Where the jukebox is on
Gonna shut out the noise
With a rock 'n' roll song
Playing along
I'm gonna turn up the volume
I'm gonna turn up the volume
I'm gonna turn up the volume
Till I can't even think
Tell us a tale of the proud and the free
Sing us a swing time American melody
From Follow The Fleet
Me, I'm just playing along
You and I, a billion people
All just playing along
I'm gonna turn up the volume
I'm gonna turn up the volume
I'm gonna turn up the volume
Till I can't even think
I'm gonna turn up the volume
I'm gonna turn up the volume
I'm gonna turn up the volume
Till I can't even think
I'm gonna turn up the volume
Till I can't even think
I'm gonna turn up the volume
Till I can't even think
I'm gonna turn up the volume
Till I can't even think
I'm gonna turn up the volume
Till I can't even think
I'm gonna turn up the volume
Till I can't even think
I'm gonna turn up the volume
Till I can't even think
I'm gonna turn up the volume
Till I can't even think
9.Pretend That Youre Alone
We are just the monkeys who fell out of the trees
We are blisters on the earth
And we are not the flowers,

And love is just our way of looking out for ourselves
When we don't want to live alone
So step into the vacuum,

Pretend that you're alone now and everything's gone
Just animal reflexes no one looking on
Forget about fashion, forget about the law
Pretend that you're alone now
I wonder what I'd do
if I could wake up every morning with a clean slate
I'd burn through the cities
and tear through the towns
coz there's no deals to make
So break out of the cages,
the delicate structures we cling to all our lives
Because we are just the monkeys
who fell out of the trees

Everything is here forever till it goes
You gave it all away, kept nothing for yourself
Just a picture on the shelf
Je souhaiterai m'immerger dans les profondeurs des mers
Y disparatre pour ne plus jamais tre vu
Burning up
Now I'm racing down a road I don't recognise
I realise I've forgotten my way home
Forgotten everything that I know
Every day a false start
And it burns my heart
Turn back
11.Love Is the End
Now is the time of our comfort and plenty
These are the days we've been working for
Nothing can touch us and nothing can harm us
No, nothing goes wrong anymore
Singing a song with your feet on the dashboard
The cigarette streaming into the night
These are the things that I want to remember
I want to remember you by
It won't come again
Cos love is the end
Oh no, my friend
Love is the end
I took off my clothes and I ran to the ocean
Looking for somewhere to start anew
And when I was drowning in that lonely water
All I could think of was you
Woah, my friend
Love is the end
So let's not pretend
Cos love is the end
Take it back, don't let it die
Or raise again the fallen night
Cos I still do, depend on you
So don't say those words, you wrung me through
Woah, oh oh
Love is the end
So let's not pretend
Cos love is the end
So I tread the only road
The only road I know
Nowhere to go, but home
Nowhere to go
Maybe our time is up
But still you can't look back
But all the principles of love
Don't say those words
Don't say those words
Don't say those words
Don't say those words
