Uncle Anesthesia

Screaming Trees Uncle Anesthesia Lyrics
1.Beyond This Horizon

Count the miles before they pass you by
Shadow of the sun has crossed the sky
Fill your head with everything you find

Beyond this horizon
Beyond this horizon
Beyond this horizon

Somewhere in the valley where you lie
Pray for those whose sun will never rise
Ghosts are laughing everywhere you land
Take another step and then you can

Beyond this horizon
Beyond this horizon
Beyond this horizon

Count the miles before they pass you by
Shadow of the sun has crossed the sky
Fill your head with everything you find

Beyond this horizon
Beyond this horizon
Beyond this horizon
Beyond this horizon


2.Bed Of Roses

Where do you stand when it's all over
Washed from the earth
And down to the sea
Do you lie in a bed of roses

Are you still aware
I guess that you don't care about it now

I see your shadow knocking at my door
All plastic face and shaking hands
Now how much space could ever hold your here

Are you still aware
I guess that you don't care about it now

Where do you stand when it's all over
Washed from the earth
And down to the sea
Do you lie in a bed of roses

Are you still aware
I guess that you don't care about it now

Are you still aware
I guess that you don't care about it now


3.Uncle Anesthesia

no man's promised land tell me what you say
Saw the moolight waiting somewhere further on the way


4.Story Of Her Fate

Deep into my tears
Hold me under drowning in despair
So many years
The only place to hide
Where she could fly
Never in the sky

And i would not hesitate
To tell the story of her fate
In a storm was she dead
Or disappeared
Or did she fly
Never said goodbye goodbye

The leaves have turned to gold
All the trees have fallen to the ground
I can't explain
But i think she died

Goodbye

Goodbye


5.Caught Between

When you walked into the room
I'd never seen your face, i'm here
On the ground with all the crawls
Into your head before the dawn

Now i'm caught between
And tired of all this pain
Hold you under but the shadows
Still remain
(time has taken me, down)
(time has taken me, down)
(time has taken me, down)

When you walked into the room
I'd never seen your face before
Close my eyes to see the sky
Won't follow you there anymore


6.Lay Your Head Down

Nowhere is the soul i felt
Now i've lost my way
Nowhere is the place i've been
Promise not to stay
How it was and always is

Sometimes it never will begin
And it won't take very long (too long)
If you come around
If it all goes wrong
You can lay your head down

Nothing is inside the hollow shell i left behind
Nothing left of innocence
It's drifting with the tide

How it was and always is
May be it never will begin
And it won't take very long (too long)
If you come around
If it all goes wrong
You can lay your head down


7.Before We Arise

Blackness all around
Can you wake me
Truth less little town
Can you wake me
I'm flying on your streets
Can you wake me
I'm drowning in your sleep
Can you wake me

From another dreamless night
Long before we arise

I'm howling in the fields
Can you wake me
Unconquered and unreal
Can you wake me
I'm crawling deep inside
Can you wake me
I'm drifting with the tide
Can you wake me

From another dreamless night
Long before we arise

Long before we arise


8.Something About Today

Gone so long and feeling so let down
Seems as though i'm living underground
Something about today
I can't explain

Walked on burning bridges so i said
I think i'll take another way instead
Something about today i can't explain
Something about today
I can't explain

War from sea to oily sea
Waves have washed home their disease
All the miles couldn't make it change
I might know tomorrow but not today

Chased by shaded night mares till i'm dead
Following most everywhere i tread
Something about today
I can't explain

Something about today


9.Alice Said

Alice said to come on in now it's time for bed
The hour's quite late i need a nap to clear my head
And later, down, the pillow softly calls to me

I've never sent down, bounced all around
Now i can't see
Blind, happily

Alice said have you forgotten what will be
Concealed in smiles that come too late now i can't see
The sun goes down, thoughts go astray
She might take my soul away

Don't close the shade
Until the twilight fades

Alice said to come on in now it's time for bead
The hour's quite late i need a nap to clear my head
The sun goes down, thoughts go astray
She might take my soul away

Don't close the shade
Until the twilight fades

Don't close the shade
Until the twilight fades

Alice said.....


10.Time For Light

Where are you walking to
There's a trap door straight ahead, falling through
What are you gonna do
Gonna do

Visions have us on the wall
Sister's spellbound in the hall
The house is dark and everybody's happy
Close my eyes to the dawn
There's a wheel of destruction coming on
It's all we never said, never said

Visions have us on the wall
Sister's spellbound in the hall
The house is dark and everybody's happy

The time for light is over
Darkness dropped you couldn't deal
These are things we shouldn't let go
Secrets you shouldn't know
But it's alright
Just as far as you know, it's alright

Where are you walking now
Your neck's inside a trap coming down
Our heads are filled with all the things
We used to say and everything we never said
Never said

Visions have us on the wall
Sister's spellbound in the hall
The house is dark and everybody's happy


11.Disappearing

Don't you try to find me any more, i want to stay
Outside of your world
This time you've thrown it all away
That was one mistake
I never thought you'd make
Once you walk the path that has no end

Close the door and think awhile
When you are all alone
Staring into nothingness
Your eyes have turned to atone
Return, to yesterday
There is no easy way
Once you walked away, but now you stand

Faded out of memories
And moments that you took
Locked away inside a box
I never thought you would
Follow it down and back
Disappearing in you own tracks
Don't you think you've had enough of that?


12.Ocean Of Confusion

On a day so long ago, now no one can remember
There's a change this too will pass
And vanish in the haze
This is moving too far
Under the skin of your sight
Ocean of confusion took me back to the
End of the night

Transparent dreams fade in my head
In my eyes, i'm looking back for one last time

Now day has broken
Shattered in the wind
Lies, still unspoken
Nothing left to send

Sliding by a picture handing, folded in your hand
Ride it out in the hopelessness now you'll understand
This is moving too far under the skin of your sight
Ocean of confusion took me back to the end of the night

Transparent dreams fade in my head
In my eyes, i'm looking back for one last time


13.Closer

Histories are held within your heart
So let it go
Open all the doors around your eyes
And let us know
Certain keys are held within your hand
So let it show

Bring us closer to the flame
Bring us closer to the fire
Where's the spark within your eye
Where's the spark

Thunder in your ears
Until you can't hear this at all
Rivers flowing tears
Until your destinies dissolve
Drifting through the years
Until a voice receives your call

Bring us closer to the fire
Bring us closer to the flame
The end and beginning are the same
It's all the same

Mysteries are kept within your heart
So let it show
Open all the doors around your eyes
And let us know
Certain keys were held until they must have let you go

Bring us closer to the flame
Bring us closer to the fire
This world can't take us any higher
