Tripping
First they ignore you
Then laugh at you and hate you
Then they fight you - then you win
When the truth dies
Very bad things happen
They're being heartless again
I know it’s coming
There's going to be violence
I've taken as much
As I'm willing to take
Why do you think
We should suffer in silence
When a heart is broken
There's nothing to break
(Chorus Backing Vocal:
Want you to love me
Want you to be
The heavens above me
Eternally)
You've been mixing
With some very heavy faces
The boys have done a bit of bird
They don't kill their own
And they all love their mothers
But you're out of your depth son
Have a word
I know it’s coming
There's going to be violence
I've taken as much
As I'm willing to take
Why do you think
We should suffer in silence
The heart is broken
There's nothing to break
All is wonderful in past lives
Dreaming of the sun she warms
You should see me in the afterlife
Picking up the sons of dust
When you think we're lost
We're exploring
What do you think is worthless
I’m adoring
You don't want the truth
Truth is boring
I got this fever need to
Leave the house leave the car
Leave the bad men where they are
Leave a few shells in my gun
Stop me staring at the sun
I know it’s coming
There's going to be violence
I've taken as much
As I'm willing to take
Why do you say
We should suffer in silence
A heart is broken
There's nothing to break
Advertising space
There's no earthly way of knowing
What was in your heart
When it stopped going
The whole world shook
A storm was blowing through you
Waiting for god to stop this
And up to your neck in darkness
Everyone around you was corrupted
Saying something
There's no dignity in death
To sell the world your last breath
They're still fighting over everything you left
I saw you standing at the gates
When Marlon Brando passed away
You had that look upon your face
Advertising space
No one learned from your mistakes
We let our prophets go to waste
All that's left in any case
Is advertising space
Through your eyes the world was burning
Please be gentle I'm still learning
You seemed to say as you kept turning up
They poison you with compromise at what point did you realise
That everybody loves your life but you
A special agent for the man
Through Watergate and Vietnam
No one really gave a damn
Did you think the CIA did
I saw you standing at the gates
When Marlon Brando passed away
You had that look upon your face
Advertising space
No one learned from your mistakes
We let our prophets go to waste
All that's left in any case
Is advertising space
No one learned from your mistakes
We let our prophets go to waste
All that's left in any case
Is advertising space
I've seen your daughter man she's cute
I was scared but I wanted to
Boy she looks a lot like you
Sin Sin Sin
Don't let your eyes tell the brain
You should feel ashamed
Everyone needs it baby
And I feel the same
Didn't quite catch your name
Hush hush hush don't say a thing
Lets see what the night will bring
It might be everything
Oh it hurts when you're too blind to see
Please don't read my mind I tell the truth to me
Sin sin sin look where we've been
And where we are tonight
Hate the sin not the sinner
I'm just after a glimmer of love
And life deep inside
Hush hush hush
To speak in a sin
And neither of us need rescuing
Just relax
It's what Jesus would do
We're made in his image baby
Let's ride this thing through
Oh it hurts 'when you're to blind to see
What about us? Well it was just for me
Sin sin sin look where we've been
And where we are tonight
Hate the sin not the sinner
I'm just after a glimmer of love
And life deep inside
I won't sing of amore
It don't sound sincere
Love is a cliché
But if it's not here I'll disappear
Sin sin sin look where we've been
And where we are tonight
Hate the sin not the sinner I'm just after a glimmer of love
And life deep inside
It's love great sex joy
I love you, you love my hate
And it feels inside my
Feels inside
Feels inside
Angels
I sit and wait
does an angel contemplate my fate
And do they know
The places where we go
When we're grey and old
'cause I have been told
That salvation lets their wings unfold
So when I'm lying in my bed
Thoughts running through my head
And I feel that love is dead
I'm loving angels instead
Chorus:
And through it all she offers me protection
A lot of love and affection
Whether I'm right or wrong
And down the waterfall
Wherever it may take me
I know that life won't break me
When I come to call
She won't forsake me
I'm loving angels instead
When I'm feeling weak
And my pain walks down a one way street
I look above
And I know I'll always be blessed with love
And as the feeling grows
She brings flesh to my bones
And when love is dead
I'm loving angels instead
Chorus
(Instrumental)
Chorus
Feel
Come and hold my hand
I wanna contact the living
Not sure I understand
This role I've been given
I sit and talk to God
And he just laughs at my plans
My head speaks a language
I don't understand
I just want to feel real love
Fill the home that I live in
'Cause I got too much life
Running through my veins
Going to waste
I don't want to die
But I ain't keen on living either
Before I fall in love
I'm preparing to leave her
I scare myself to death
That's why I keep on running
Before I've arrived
I can see myself coming
I just want to feel real love
Fill the home that I live in
'Cause I got too much life
Running through my veins
Going to waste
And I need to feel real love
And a life ever after
I cannot give it up
I just want to feel real love
Fill the home that I live in
I got too much love
Running through my veins
To go to waste
I just wanna feel real love
In a life ever after
There's a hole in my soul
You can see it in my face
It's a real big place
Come and hold my hand
I want to contact the living
Not sure I understand
This role I've been given
Not sure I understand
Not sure I understand
Not sure I understand
Not sure I understand
