1.Be Above It

(Gotta be above it, gotta be above it, gotta be above it, gotta
be above it)
(Gotta be above it, gotta be above it, gotta be above it, gotta
be above it)
(Gotta be above it, gotta be above it, gotta be above it, gotta
be above it)
(Gotta be above it, gotta be above it, gotta be above it, gotta
be above it)
(Gotta be above it, gotta be above it, gotta be above it, gotta
be above it)
(Gotta be above it, gotta be above it, gotta be above it, gotta
be above it)
(Gotta be above it, gotta be above it, gotta be above it, gotta
be above it)
(Gotta be above it, gotta be above it, gotta be above it, gotta
be above it)
(Gotta be above it, gotta be above it, gotta be above it, gotta
be above it)
(Gotta be above it, gotta be above it, gotta be above it, gotta
be above it)
(Gotta be above it, gotta be above it, gotta be above it, gotta
be above it)

And I know that I gotta be above it now
(Gotta be above it, gotta be above it)
And I know that I can't let them bring me down
(Gotta be above it, gotta be above it)
And I gotta fight my time as a face in the crowd
(Gotta be above it, gotta be above it)
And I know that I gotta be above it now
(Gotta be above it, gotta be above it)

(Gotta be above it, gotta be above it, gotta be above it, gotta
be above it)
(Gotta be above it, gotta be above it, gotta be above it, gotta
be above it)
(Gotta be above it, gotta be above it, gotta be above it, gotta
be above it)
(Gotta be above it, gotta be above it, gotta be above it, gotta
be above it)
(Gotta be above it, gotta be above it, gotta be above it, gotta
be above it)

And I know that I gotta be above it now
(Gotta be above it, gotta be above it, gotta be above it, gotta
be above it)
(Gotta be above it, gotta be above it, gotta be above it, gotta
be above it)
And I gotta fight my time as a face in the crowd
(Gotta be above it, gotta be above it, gotta be above it, gotta
be above it)
And I know that I gotta be above it now
(Gotta be above it, gotta be above it)
And I can't let them all just bring me down
(Gotta be above it, gotta be above it, gotta be above it, gotta
be above it)
(Gotta be above it, gotta be above it, gotta be above it, gotta
be above it)
This time I'm just gonna take it all, I'm never gonna shake it
up
Just goes by to make it so all those things don't effect me now
(Gotta be above it, gotta be above it)
Know that I gotta be above it now
(Gotta be above it, gotta be above it)
And I can't let them all just let bring me down
(Gotta be above it, gotta be above it, gotta be above it, gotta
be above it)
This time I'm just gonna take it all, I'm never gonna shake it
up
Just goes by to make it so all those things don't effect me now
(Gotta be above it, gotta be above it, gotta be above it, gotta
be above it)
(Gotta be above it, gotta be above it, gotta be above it, gotta
be above it)
(Gotta be above it, gotta be above it, gotta be above it, gotta
be above it)
(Gotta be above it, gotta be above it, gotta be above it, gotta
be above it)


2.Endors Toi

Soothing repeat,
I look down at my feet,
It's a hypnotist's arm,
And it works like a charm.
But I won't be deprived,
Real worlds, surreal life,
Do or die,
There is time,
Go to sleep,
You'll be fine.

In the morning you'll find,
Real life was such a grind.
Off I go, day is done
Where a new one's just begun.


3.Apocalypse Dreams

This could be the day that we push through,
it could be the day that all our dreams come true,
for me and you,
'till we're at the end of just another day.

Are you too terrified to try your best?
Just to end up with an educated guess?
like success,
all those times you wake up mystified...

Oh it feels so real in my sleep
never held something so close I couldn't keep,
Into the day, the strangest feeling
Do you really live without the fear?

Everything is changing
And there's nothing I can do
My world is turning pages
While I am just sitting here.

Well?
Am I getting closer?
Will I ever get there?
Does it even matter?
Do I really need it?
Push it out the window,
On and on we all go,
Into another morning,
Doesn't even matter,
It was only yesterday,
Didn't even know you,
Now I'm gonna miss you.

Nothing ever changes,
No matter how long you do your hair
It looks the same to everyone else
Everything is changing,
I guess I should tell my mum,
But she'll just be excited


4.Mind Mischief

Feels like my life is ready to blow
Me and my love, we're taking it slow
I hope she knows that I love her along
I just don't know where the hell I belong, oh no
I often miss the lady's trail
200 hundred things I've tooken away
I saw her love get drown in love
I tried to feel but it over flowed
Feels like my life is ready to blow
Me and my love, we're taking it slow
I hope she knows that I love her along
I just don't know where the hell I belong, oh no

She remembers my name, could be going way out
It's all going to change, she remembers my name

She's the only person around, please don't forget me (?)
Don't go (?) and it all just went out, yes, I'm holding this
down
No more getting it wrong, I'll be frozen here long
If forever we'll see, no more guessing for me
Oh, now (?) to you and it all just came out
Guess I'll hold it now all, forever we'll see, no more guessing
for me


5.Music to Walk Home By

But that's only when I think of you,
Some vision that I hold on to,
You know it's everything I do,
You know it's everything I do.

Can almost stand competing with the others
Can almost hear the fun that I should be having.
Instead of all this dreaming...

But it's only when I think of you,
The mover I could turn into,
There must be something I can do,
There must be something I can do.

But I just don't know
How to feel right,
A beautiful girl
Is wasting my life,
I'm playing a part
As somebody else,
While trying so hard
To be myself.
I just need to hear
Somebody say,
That this will make sense one day.
I guess I'm alright
But they're all doing so well,
What I would give
To be under that spell...

You'll know soon.

In so many ways
I'm somebody else
I'm trying so hard
To be myself.
I just need to hear
Somebody say
That this will all make
Sense one day.

Well it's getting late
I'd better go
I made it this far
As far as I know.


6.Why Won't They Talk to Me?

Out of this zone, try to deceive, I'm so alone, I'm just falling
I guess I'll go home, try to be sane, try to pretend all of it
happened
Oh, there's no tree, lonely old me, whoopsee daisy, I thought I
was happy, oh
Out of this zone, now that I see, I don't need them and they
don't need me
I guess I'll go home, try to be sane, try to pretend all of it
happened
There's no need to be, lonely old me, whoopsee daisy, I thought
I was happy

Ah, why won't they talk to me? (I thought I was happy)
Ah, why won't they talk to me? (I thought I was happy)
Ah, why won't they talk to me? (I thought I was happy)
Ah, why won't they talk to me? (Aaaah-aaaah...)
Ah, why won't they talk to me?

But I don't really care about it anyway
I wouldn't listen to a word any others say
They just don't understand how it's (?)
One day they'll all stand right beside me

Ah, why wont they talk to me? Ah, why wont they talk to me?
Ah, why wont they talk to me? Ah, why wont they talk to me?
Ah, why wont they talk to me?


7.Feels Like We Only Go Backwards

It feels like I only go backwards, baby
Every part of me says go ahead
I got my hopes up again, oh no, not again
Feels like we only go backwards darling

I know that you think you sound silly when you call my name
But I hear it inside my head all day
Then I realize I'm just holding to the hope that maybe your
feelings don't show

It feels like I only go backwards, baby
Every part of me says go ahead
I got my hopes up again, oh no, not again
Feels like we only go backwards darling

Sea of all this indecision isn't me, oh no
I decided long ago that's the way it seems to go
I try so hard to get to something real, it feels

It feels like I only go backwards, baby
Every part of me says go ahead
I got my hopes up again, oh no, not again
Feels like we only go backwards darling
It feels like I only go backwards, baby
Every part of me says go ahead
I got my hopes up again, oh no, not again
Feels like we only go backwards darling
It feels like I only go backwards, baby
Every part of me says go ahead
I got my hopes up again, oh no, not again
Feels like we only go backwards darling


8.Keep on Lying

All I give, I then loose, maybe one day I'll get threw
There is nothing I can do, I just keep on lying to you
I only need to say its true, only part I already knew
But there is nothing you can do, I just keep on lying to you
Should my cover ever blow, would you ever let it go?
There is something you should know, but hell if I'd ever let it
show
So here I am trying to be strong, it was known, now my shadows
long
I guess I'll go and tell it as soon as I get to the end of this
song
To the end of this song, to the end of this song
To the end of this song, to the end of this song

Yeah, I'll be alone, take all you can
Please understand that it never really was love

All I give, I then loose, maybe one day I'll get threw
There is nothing I could do, I just keep on lying to you


9.Elephant

Well, he feels like an elephant
Shaking his big grey trunk for the hell of it
He knows that you're dreaming about being over him

Too bad your chances are slim

And it's not like mister shook to get shy when they ask him who
is under
There must be something deep down in the middle down there

He's not too easily scared

He's got friends but they have fear
Who don't care too much if he just disappeared
Oh, look there he is now coming down the stairs

Here it comes

He pulled the mirrors off his Cadillac
'Cause he doesn't like it looking like he looks back
He talks like his opinion is a simple fact

Somebody grabbed his collar
He cried the whole way home
He won't remember a thing 'til they start again

That's how it is 'til the end
Yeah


10.She Just Won't Believe Me

But she just won't believe me, she just won't believe me
I never meant to see him but she just won't believe me


11.Nothing That Has Happened So Far Has Been Anything We Could Control


Nothing that has happened so far has
Been anything we could control.
I have just been waiting for the perfect
Time to tell you I don't know.
Maybe I'm just reading into it a
Little deeper than I should.
We would make it easy we would take
It slowly if only we could.

Elodie,
Look at me,
Unless you're trying to hurt me
Heavy blow,
Down I go
Now I just want to let go.

Is it right?
Is it wrong?
I don't know,
It's not the cause I'm fighting for
Anymore
But it sucks to keep on running.

Eventually,
There will be
A time for clearer thinking
For now I weep
Can't get to sleep
I try to hold a good feeling.
I just get one,
Here it comes,
There it goes,
And we just might,
Lose the fight, yeah
But it's alright
It wasn't our decision.

Nothing that has happened so far
Has been anything we could control.
I have just been waiting for the perfect
Time to tell you that I know
Every man is happy until
Happiness is suddenly a goal.
I'll just be here waiting till the
Doctor calls and then I'll let you know.


12.Sun's Coming Up

All those things I ever thought would never end
I think there now all memories aince we ran the band
Watch the airplanes swaying, coming in to land
Then my world is hanging in someone else's hands
And if I've done something, you have to let me go
Think of me as someone, someone that you know
But if I don't hear something, pretty soon from now
Ill disconnect completely, see how that works out

I was a daring not much had chanced it
Oh my darling, why won't you answer?
Seven AM, midnight in Dover
Sun's coming up now, I guess it's over
Playing his guitar while he's dying of cancer
Oh my father, why won't you answer?
Seven AM, midnight in Dover
Suns comin up now, I guess it's over


13.Led Zeppelin

Senses taking over, thought to set me free
I tried to get up but it was pouring down on me
Keeps on getting deeper, desperately to be
Said there's some guy interested in dragging it out of me
Oh, it's what I need, oh

Tell me you're in love to let it show

Just making magic, I was far enough to see it
Better than to get just what a stranger did to me
Is it because I love, is it because I don't, well, I just don't
know
Keep on asking me, darling, let me see it, keep on asking
Is there any way to let it go?
