Paloma Faith Reality(Do You Want The Truth Or Lyrics
1.Stone Cold Sober

I'll be the late night lady you won't recognize,
I'm a chameleon I'm always in disguise
I'd read your future but it's written in the past,
Take a good look might be your last

Don't try to show me, cause you don't know me,
Stay away!!

I can be wilder than the wind,
119 miles an hour,
I'm in a whole other dimension,
Dancing doubles on the floor,
You think I'm crazy, a little bit hazy,
But I'm stone cold sober

You're telling me something
But there's nothing cheap as words
I'm walking away before I do affect the birds
Excuse me Mr I've got other things to do
Than to stand here listening to you

Stop talking at my face
Take a rocket out to space and ..
Stay away!!

I can be wilder than the wind
119 miles an hour
I'm in a whole other dimension,
Dancing doubles on the floor
You think I'm crazy, a little bit hazy
But I'm stone cold ..
I can be wilder than the wind
119 miles an hour
I'm in a whole other dimension,
Dancing doubles on the floor
You think I'm crazy, a little bit hazy
But I'm stone cold sober

In the madness of the storm,
I'm the one to carry on,
I don't need no medicine,
If you're looking for a cure,
Don't be knocking at my door,
I'll never let you in
Take a rocket out to space
And stay out of my place

I can be wilder than the wind
119 miles an hour
I'm in a whole other dimension,
Dancing doubles on the floor
You think I'm crazy, a little bit hazy
But I'm stone cold ..
I can be wilder than the wind
119 miles an hour
I'm in a whole other dimension,
Dancing doubles on the floor
You think I'm crazy, a little bit hazy
But I'm stone cold sober


2.Smoke & Mirrors

I met you we made a pact
Broke promises the system snaps
All your lights and neon lights are old

Dicta-coated miracles and then one day the curtain called
Behind your smile you're bony and a fake

Give it up
You've been discovered (Ooh-ooh ooh-ooh)
Don't look back 'cos you've just lost your lova'
Give it up
Your unillusioned (Ooh-ooh ooh-ooh)
Play our tricks and all I get is just confusion

And now we're through
The show is over
The audience is walking out the room
You know it's true, when I told ya
That all this gunk comes back around on you

You said you were built to last
You took my hand you made a pass
The moon eclipsed and circled round my heart
With your kiss my life began
Your love it hit and then you ran
And I hope you pay your dues I'm moving on

Give it up
You've been discovered (Ooh-ooh ooh-ooh)
Don't look back 'cos you've just lost your lova'
Give it up
Your inillusioned (Ooh-ooh ooh-ooh)
Play our tricks and all I get is just confusion

And now we're through
The show is over
The audience is walking out the room
You know it's true, when I told ya
That all this gunk comes back around on you

(Uuuuuoooooooooohhhh uuuoh)

You might think I'm sitting home and crying
But I'm not, oh no
I've pulled the Queen of Clubs, there's no denying
I'm having the time of my life

And now we're through
The show is over
The audience is walking out the room
You know it's true, when I told ya
That all this gunk comes back around on you

And now we're through
The show is over
The audience is walking out the room
You know it's true, when I told ya
That all this gunk comes back around
All this gunk comes back around
On you.


3.Broken Doll

I'm a broken doll
And you're the puppeteer
Take control for me
And wipe away my fear

I don't claim to be perfect -
I know I'm damaged goods
But I wanna be let out of darkness
Just like every lady would

Lick my wounds and watch them seal
With a healing heart
Embrace my sadness, look after me
'Cause there's no-one else I'd ask

I'm a broken doll,
And you're the puppeteer
Take control for me
And wipe away my fear

Piece me all together
The broken high and sweet
You thought my heart was made of wood
But I can hear it beat

I'm scared of shadows in the night
When you're not there by my side
Sick of nightmares in my sleep -
There's no place I can hide

See the beauty in the blood
That drips down from my eyes
Hold the parts that were ripped out
That had took me by surprise

I'm a broken doll
And you're the puppeteer
Take control for me
And wipe away my fear

Piece me all together
The broken high and sweet
You thought my heart was made of wood
But I can hear it beat

Boom, Boom
There it goes
Boom, Boom
To the sound of the grand piano
I'm dancing in your light
And I like it

I'm a broken doll
And you're the puppeteer
Take control for me
And wipe away my fear

I'm a broken doll
And you're the puppeteer
Take control for me
And wipe away my fear

Piece me all together
The broken high and sweet
You thought my heart was made of wood
But I can hear it beat

I'm a broken doll
And you're the puppeteer
Take control for me
And wipe away my fear

Piece me all together
The broken high and sweet
You thought my heart was made of wood
But I
I hear it beat


4.Do You Want The Truth Or Something Beautiful ?

Prophet took my hand on all saints day
He preached the values of deception
Changing shadows by a shapeshifter rules
Tales are never just for fools
The court of concience came before me
Presenting me with a heavenly angel
You took my hand and ask me, truth aside
To his questions I replied
Do you want the truth or something beautiful?
Just close your eyes and make believe
Do you want the truth or something beautiful?
I am happy to decieve you
He stood as tall as redwood trees
Drank tea from a sseamstress thimble
Didn't want to speak, the honest truth
So I spit out lies that aimed to soothe
Do you want the truth or something beautiful?

Just close your eyes and make believe
Do you want the truth or something beautiful?
I am happy to decieve you
Secrets, lying, telling tales
I can be who you want me to be
Sacred, lies in, telling tales
I can be who you want me to be
But do you want me?
Do you want the truth or something beautiful?
Just close your eyes and make believe
Do you want the truth or something beautiful?
I am happy to decieve you
Sacred lies in, tellng tales
I can be who you wants me to be x2
I can be who you wnats me to be
But do u want me?
But do u want me?


5.Upside Down

Angels watching over me with smiles upon their face
Coz I have made it through this far in an unforgiving place

It feels sometimes this is too steep for a girl like me to climb
But I must knock those thoughts right down I do it in my own
time


I don't care (care care)
I'm half way there (nowhere)
On a road that leads me to straight to who knows where

I tell you what (I tell you what)
What I have found (What I have found)
That I'm no fool (That I'm no fool)
I'm just upside down (Just upside down)

Ain't got no pain (Ain't got no pain)
I aint got no rules (Aint got no rules)
I think I like (I think I like)
Living upside down (Living upside down)


Watchin people scurry by rushing to and fro
Oh this world is such a crazy place it's all about the go go go

Sometimes life can taste so sweet When you slow it down
You start to see the world a little differently When you turn it
upside down

I don't care (care care)
I'm half way there (nowhere)
And I'm just soaking up the magic in the air

I tell you what (I tell you what)
What I have found (What I have found)
That I'm no fool (That I'm no fool)
I'm just upside down (Just upside down)

Ain't got no pain (Ain't got no pain)
I aint got no rules (Aint got no rules)
I think I like (I think I like)
Living upside down (Living upside down)

(Whoa Whoa Whoa)
You gotta slow it down
(Yeah Yeah Yeah)
But then you pick it up
(Whoa Yeah Whoa)
C'mon and try a little topsy-turvy back-to-front the right way
round
Take it slow slow slow (You gotta pick it up)
Yeah Yeah Yeah (See you slow it down)
Yo Yo Yo (Tell me something something)

I tell you what (I tell you what)
What I have found (What I have found)
That I'm no fool (That I'm no fool)
I'm just upside down (Just upside down)

Ain't got no pain (Ain't got no pain)
I aint got no rules (Aint got no rules)
I think I like (I think I like)
Living upside down (Living upside down)

I tell you what (I tell you what)
What I have found (What I have found)
That I'm no fool (That I'm no fool)
I'm just upside down (Just upside down)

Ain't got no pain (Ain't got no pain)
I aint got no rules (Aint got no rules)
I think I like (I think I like)
Living upside down (Living upside down)


6.Romance Is Dead

The plastic flowers you gave for sit on the table so unstable
And there is some greasy finger prints on the pre-wrote birthday
card you wrote your name in
And I know that you make your effort
But I think you could do much better

A rose is blue and violets red
Say it isn't true Don't tell me romance is dead
So wake up you sleepy head
All your dreams are just a kiss away...

I ask you for a letter so you emailed, Have we failed?
Oh, you kiss with such a potential,
Then ask to speed up
It's not enough
Now I am carrying my own bags up,
17 flights of stairs, love

A rose is blue and violets red
Say it isn't true, don't tell me romance is dead
So wake up sleepy head
Think of all the magic we could make
All your dreams is just a kiss away...

You shouldn't take just valentine day
Just to show you love me
You don't need any money,
Just abit of imagination

A rose is blue and violets red
You say it isn't true,
Don't tell me romance is dead
So wake up you sleepy head
Think of all the magic we could make
All your dreams is just a kiss away

All roses blue and violets red
You say it isn't true
Don't tell me romance is dead
So wake up you sleepy head
Think of all the magic we could make
All your dreams is just a kiss away!


7.New York

The days were long and the night so cold
The pages turn and the tale unfolds
He left me for another lady

She stood so tall and she never slept
There was not one moment he could regret
He left me for another lady

He took my hand one day and told me
He was leaving
Me disbelieving
And I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I
Had to let him go

Her name was New York
New York and she
Took his heart away from mine
Her name was New York,
New York
She had poisoned his sweet mind

The wolves they howl
For my lost soul
I fell down
A deep black hole
He'd left me for another lady
She poured the drinks
And she poured the power
Diamond girl
Who could talk for hours
He'd left me for another lady

Now I am on my own
He told me
He was leaving
And I was pleading
And I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I
Had to let him go

Her name was New York
New York and she
Took his heart away from mine
Her name was New York,
New York
She had poisoned his sweet mind

The greatest times
I don't want to hear it
Your new life tonight
I don't want to hear it
The newfound friends
She introduced you to
I don't want to know them
I just want to be with you
Please don't make me go to
New York

New York
She took your heart away from mine
Her name was New York
New York
She poisoned your sweet mind
She poisoned your sweet mind


8.Stargazer

He was a star collector, she knew about the skies
He was a tightrope walker, she was the talk of the town
While he was in the clouds he'd show her the signs
And he know what they mean
Twinkle twinkle little dream

Stargazer, heart breaker, wish you were here
How will I shine anymore without your atmosphere?
My dear stargazer, don't disappear
How will I shine anymore when you're not here?

She had it all and lost it, now is forever in space
He circles Halley's comet and lights up the sky like a flame
Now she's a star collector, she knows the signs
And she knows what they mean
Twinkle twinkle little dream

Stargazer, heart breaker, wish you were here
How will I shine anymore without your atmosphere?
My dear stargazer, don't disappear
How will I shine anymore when you're not here?
In my everyday, and the moment I wake up beyond me
You're the only one who can bring me stars for me
Twinkle twinkle little dream
My little dream
Stargazer, heart breaker, wish you were here
How will I shine anymore without your atmosphere?
My dear stargazer, don't disappear
How will I shine anymore when you're not here?
Give me a shooting star
And I'll make a wish
I'll make a wish for you
How will I shine anymore, when you're not here?


9.My Legs Are Weak

I'm collecting people's tears they cried because they miss you
They fill the seas and all the lakes
With memories the wind blew
I'd run out of tears before the second could pass
Didn't have enough time with you to turn the hourglass

Pictures in my head suddenly appear
Why'd you have to go away?
It's all not very clear

Goodbye sweet angel
Sail away on teary seas
Tattooed the times we had
On my memory
My legs are weak

When I close my eyes I see you
The dimples in your cheeks
I forgot to tank you for things
Cause I didn't see you for weeks
Woke up this morning and hoped for a dream
But reality sat next to me and forced me to believe

Knocked down too soon
Like a skittle on the lanes
The man who took the wrong stop
From life's fast moving train

Goodbye sweet angel
Sail away on teary seas
Tattooed the times we had
On my memory
My legs are weak

Funeral flowers
Won't make me believe
They can carry out the casket
And I still expect to see
You
You
Come round tomorrow and tell me all your news
I don't ask for much from you
Sleep to my lullaby
Only give me one more chance
To say my last goodbye

Goodbye sweet angel
Sail away on teary seas
Tattooed the times we had
On my memory
My legs are weak

Goodbye sweet angel
Sail away on teary seas
Tattooed the times we had
On my memory
My legs are weak


10.Play On

We are a lullaby
and everlasting song
Taken as prisoners
To a place where we belong

If the tune stops
I will not wake, oh no
Without us Im no one
My soul swells and aches

So on the day
When the music dies
So will our love
Therell be some pain
But I keep it in my locket

If youll lead the band,
then I will have to follow
Theres no escape for me

(Chorus:)
So play on!
Keep me dancing in the air
No one else they can compare
To the harmony of our sweet rapture
You have a supernatural flair
Push me further than I dare
Play on, play on, play on
Play on for me

So if this melody
Should stop or fade away
The oceans will drain out
and the stars disintegrate

Its like voodoo
Ive lost all my control
I look into you
You make me rock n roll

So on the day
When the music dies
So will our love
Therell be some pain
But I keep it in my locket

If youll lead the band,
then I will have to follow
Theres no escape for me

Repeat chorus x 3.
