MADRUGADA - INDUSTRIAL SILENCE (1999)
You better run, you better run
You better not wait too long
You better run, you better run
You better run for you have a heart
So let's start, so let's start
So let's start, tear it all apart
You better run, you better run
You better run for you have a heart
Well, oh, well, oh, you know it's only so much I can take
I buried my head in that pillow for a million days
So, oh, oh well, I'm sorry but I do not care to wait
Dare not walk through the light
Dare not walk through the light
Your vision's travelled far today
So why don't you run away
Your vision's travelled far today
Like in the times when you say
I have a cry, I have a cry, and I will not be contained
I have a cry, I have a cry, and I will not be contained, no
Oh well, oh you know it is only so much I can take
Buried my head in that pillow a million days oh, oh
Oh well, I'm sorry but I do not care to wait
Oh, dare not walk through the light
Dare not walk through the light, oh
Oh, dare not walk through the light
Dare not walk through the light
Uuuhh uuuhhh uuuhh uhuhuuu uh uuuhh
Ain't got no destination
Bit short on apprehension
Real hot and coming up soon
New better news presentation
Face down in raw, red meat
Skinny girl watching the ugly
Thank god for the little girls
Give us the blonde with the curls, yeah
What you got is what gets me every time
The way you piss on everything real
Show me one that you think is so virtuous and clean
And I'll show you what I mean
No boots and no direction
No horse and no depression
No boring conversation
No need for no consolation
No need to be aroused
Yeah, lipstick, leather and chrome
Press button and insert coin
Quick Elvis imitation
Slip both then constellation, constellation
What you got is what gets me every time
The way you piss on everything real
Oh, show me one that you think is so virtuous and clean
And I'll show you, show you what I mean
Did I talk in my sleep, now
Hey, did I wake to find you crying by my side
We have never said that it would be easy
Just that the way love goes
We have to go too
Oh, well, honey, here tonight
I'm here tonight
Oh, now I fall like a star
Oh, in time you and I will shine
Oh, now I hold your hand of running water
And now I wipe the black out of the blonde
Well, now your hand pours down on me
And your beauty is as pure as tears
Oh, well, honey, here tonight
I'm here tonight
Oh, now I fall like a star
Oh, in time you and I will shine
Oh honey, here tonight
I'm here tonight
I'm here tonight
Oh, now I fall like a star
Oh, in time you and I will shine
Higher, there's no need to come down
Arising through the other ground
These people, these people don't mean a thing
But don't you think it's funny
That now they get to hear me sing
All right
We'll try this
We'll try this and see if it works
I want you just like that
Just like I
Always had you
Well, if it doesn't work
Then what we need is another try
When I'm like this
It strikes me: I'm the only one that knows you
So long, when will these hands be free
Throw life into these spinning heads
Oh, higher
There's no need to come down
Arising through the other ground
This song, this song is the same as always
Anyway I wanna shape it
Such a diamond, such a holiday
So long, when will these hands be free
Throw life into these spinning heads
Go honey, be a holiday
Go honey, be a holiday
Go honey, be a holiday
Go honey, be a holiday
Well hearts belongs
Like rock and skin
At peace with evil
And all within
A shadow looms above the river
And fire sweeps across the land
Our bones are twisted in their sockets
And even we must try to stand alone
Right here alone, yeah
Fire in work beneath your skin
Forever let us sleep
'Til sirens tear the night wide open
And even we awake, love
Oh, listen
The world is awake
Oh, it's time for the tellers to rise
And the blood of the angels
Heeeey alone lone lone lone lone
Hear my ban with evil, lone
And alone
Right here alone, yeah
Alone, oh ho oh
Alone, yeah
Lone, lone, lone
Blue
Strange colour blue
Sixteen tons on the moon
Blue
Strange colour blue
Coming back to you
Pushing through
Pouring rain
Nearly there
Nearly there
Oh, blue
Blue
Strange colour blue
Sixteen tons on the moon
Hey little mister driver man
Keep your head up
We are nearly there
I am racing
Outside and below myself
Nearly forgot myself there
Nearly there, yeah
Oh, everybody's sleeping now
An industrial silence singing
And the rain will keep hammering down from overhead
Now there's a blue, blue, strange colour blue
Let me dream of me and you
Oh, how the rain keeps coming down
Pour, oh, running down the window
Like a vein on my arm
Oh, running down the window
Like a vein on my arm, yeah
This is how we do it
This is how we do it
This is how we do it
Nearly there
This is how we do it
This is how we do it
This is how we do it
Nearly there
Oh, blue
Strange colour, a colour blue
Yeah, a colour blue
Oh, blue blue blue yeah
Strange colour, a colour blue
Yeah, a colour blue
Oh, blue blue blue, yeah
Strange colour, a colour blue
Oh, a colour blue
Hey little mister driver man
Keep your head up
We are nearly there
Nearly there
How come the stars shine so bright
Here in this night, it will not end
There's a boy and a girl
Who know all the wrong words
And you and I need no more
It's so good to be alone with you
It's so good to be open eyed
They won't know us anymore
Once we step back into
This old house
In this old house
Where every door is open
Well listen real close
This old house
In this old house
We know there's more to this than there
The nation of the two
In this old house
This old house is where we
Consider it gone and the same
Now, there were days when we would fall
Those guiding stars would shine no more
Oh it's all right with me
We just don't talk it over
Stay the rest of this day in this bed
It's so good to be alone with you
It's so good to be open eyed
And they won't know us any more
Once we step back into
Oh, this old house
In this old house
Where every door is open
We'll take it real slow
In this old house
In this old house
We know there's more to this than there
Never leave this old house
Oh, in this old house
We know there's more to this than there
Never leave
This old house
Oh, in this old house, this old
We know there's more to this than there
We'll never leave
This old house
Pack your bags, run away
Along the freeway, out of town
Where you'd like and the night is over
It's alright
From despair, between the sheets
Spilling over, spinning round
Waiting still, in the street
Ain't it bitter, ain't it sweet, oh ho
Holding, holding on to you again
Holding, holding on to you again
No rushing, don't rush it, my love
Holding on, holding, holding on to you
Bet you lie, on your back
In the backseat of his car
Cattle black, pepper night
Dylan Thomas, pass around
Passing out on the floor
In the bathroom, black light vail
We don't need once again
Sing the song, sing
Drink the wine, love
Oh, well how long did we stay in there
Well I can't believe my eyes
Well how long did I take this
Well I can't hold on no, hold on
Holding, holding on to you again
Holding, holding on to you again
I'm ready, I'm ready, my love
Holding, holding on to you
No life, no life without a fall
Now the wind has swept us all
Down to this mission wall
And the love, the love we pray to keep
Has buried us so deep
And me singing this same sad song
How I fell into her arms
Her warm and loving arms
She said: You can never be free
You can never be like me
Now I'm a mad dog and I'll be
Now you honey on my tree
Whether sweet tomorrow
In the mellow wallow
Oh there's still time to borrow
And in the mellow wallow, yeah
We will never have it all
Tonight I'm screaming at the wall
Peel the paint of my window rail
Touch, material has no choice
Peel the paint off with my voice
Curse this city's deplex song
Now I'm sleeping on the floor
Honey I'm soaking wet and
Oh they're coming out, they're coming out, they're coming for me
As long as we are free
We'll be doomed to live and die
Under the great suburban sky
And I'll always holler
In the mellow wallow
Oh there's still time to borrow
And in the mellow wallow
Jesus
Heaven, heaven head of hell
You are treating me quite well
Washed me up upon a shore
Now I'm scratching down your door
All the words become my hands
Cold and broken on the floor
Peeling gooseflesh off your back
Pulling back your long black hair
Now this beauty is my queen
Skinny arms so very slow
A perfume neck and a blanket so small
Oh, what beauty, oh what bridge
I will sleep tomorrow
And in the mellow wallow
Oh, there's still time to borrow
And in the mellow wallow
Oh, and I fall to be controlled
Lost and swept away
I will always wait it out
Won't you listen now
Let me sleep tomorrow inn
We'll never have it all
Now the wind has swept us all
Down to this mission wall
And see, the rhythm is your hand
Speed the rhythm, speed the band
This is the bright amphetamine sky
The night is on and on
Your head roll away
I catch it when it falls
And keep it beneath my heart
So what have we become
More than a skin and bone
Oh, what could beat this love
It's so parallel
This is when we awake
This is where we don't ache
I see the sun burn it's never quite as close
As the only one and I
I can hardly wait
Again this sweet, sweet song
Oh, give me what you take
And give me all that sleazy ..
Give me what never ends
So what have we become
More than a skin and bones
And when do we come down
I don't care anymore
This is when we awake
This is where we don't ache
I see the sun burn it's never quite as close
As the only one and I, I can hardly wait
I see the sun burn it's never quite as close
As the only one and I can hardly wait
Let me tell you about the way the hammer moves
The hammer goes up and down and hits the nail, on the head each time
That's the point
All right in 1998 it's getting hard to go to sleep at night
And hard to get up in the morning
I tell myself, I'm going too hard, too rash, too long, too long
But this is not the truth
There's no sign or no big break down
It's just these little things that keep putting me of the track
Yeah, I have a notion of moving around in circles
Things just keep getting worse and worse
'Til they get all the way around
And then eveything turns out alright
In one single flash I see both shows
Computer, cigarettes, photograph, pens and pencils
Pop-craving critics curving
A doctor tried to cure me of these shells
I stopped seeing him
I heard nothing more about being mentally ill
In one single flash comes words, no poetry
Did you put on weight
I take two, not one
A man with one arm
Best beer ever to come out of Belgium
If you kept drinking like this it wouldn't have to be
It's not like I'm real hateful with our friends, our beloved friends
VCR, last goodbyes, this is not the time for all I love you's
This nail is bent and broken, straighten it out with the hands of love
This is where the hammer hits, this is its golden tongue
There speaks no more, this is the same that were never moved
This is the tsar at will, this is where the hammer hit, this is when the turnpike
This nail is bent and broken, straighten it out with the hands of love
With the hands of love, with the hands of love
With the hands of love yeah, with the hands of love yeah
With the hands of love yeah, with the hands of love
With the hands of love, with the hands of love yeah
With the hands of love, with the hands of love yeah
With the hands of love yeah, uuh shalalala with the hands of love yeah
Yeah yeah, yeah yeah, yeah yeah
Let me tell you about the way the hammer moves
The hammer goes up and down
And hits the nail, on the head each time
That's the point, yeah
This mechanism can succesfully be adapted to almost everything
Things like personel room, man enters the room feels like someone just left
Pain, loss, mother to silence, guitars and tambourines
Let me tell you about the way the hammer moves
The hammer goes up and down
And hits the nail, on the head each time
That's the point
I tell myself I'm going too hard, too rash, too long, too long
Yeah, I tell myself I'm going too hard, too rash, too long, too long
But this is not the truth
There's no sign or no big break down
It's just these little things that keep putting me of the track
Yeah, I have a notion of moving around in circles
Things just keep getting worse and worse
'Til they get all the way around
And then eveything turns out alright
In one single flash I see both shows
Computer, cigarettes, photograph, pens and pencils
Record pop-craving critics curving
We're slow moving by the break of day
You are now entirely mine again
Still I hold you in my arms
There is not much to talk about anyway
Quite emotional now
Drive by noise and straight to the bone, for you
Quite emotional now, not making sense
So I come here in your arms
You keep on whispering that you won't stop
I take it back, babe
Everything that I have said
And I hold you in my arms
There's no better place for you anyway
Quite emotional now
Drifting miles apart, of reasons away
Quite emotional now, not making sense
Quite emotional now, not making sense
Quite emotional now, not making sense
So I came in your arms, your hair
Quite emotional now
I don't believe you now
Lord, throw your mercy down
And burn, burn me to, to the ground
Oh, I'm gonna ride that terraplane to the ground, now
I'm gonna ride that terraplane
I'm gonna ride it to the ground
To the ground
So you send your mercy down
Oh, Oh I'm gonna fall
I'm gonna ride that terraplane
I'm gonna ride that terraplane to the ground
To the ground
Oh
I'm gonna ride that terraplane
I'm gonna ride it to the ground
I'm gonna ride that terraplane
I'm gonna ride it to the ground
