REMY ZERO - VILLA ELAINE (1998)
Your sad songs rain in heaven
Here's a call for you
So don't let it fall into your
Frail dreams of horror
Life, lies, and shattered blows
Calling out you're famous
So hold to your permanent bliss
In the time that it takes to exist
From the hours to the fall of it
It's all right
You're all wrong
And it's a dangerous thing to ignore
It's so easy when the world has it's way
Well, then you're gone
Life, limbs, and shattered blows
Crawling out you're famous
So hold to your permanent bliss
When you barely know that you exist
From the hours to the fall of it
All right
Alright, I never said
to just cast them out
Leave it till the morning
Then you're gone.
So long
Cast them out
Now you're alive
So hold to your permanent bliss
In the time that it takes to exist
From the hours to the fall of it
It's all right
You're all wrong
It's so, it's so easy
Consider this a sign.
This is a train in the night
And now it's time for you to go
You know you've had a healthy life, boy.
You walk this world like you're a ghost
Your hands are coming through the needles
Sick of your tragic and the evils
I am the keeper of the songs of everyone
Look into the sun and see your soul is dying
Used to feel the faith, but now you're tired of trying
Should have left alone what you have stolen from everyone
How are you feeling?
Seem a little sick to me now
This is a coming of the times
You are a witness to the movement
If all you're seeing is your lies
You had your chance, but now you've blown it.
You want this world so you can own it
I am the keeper of the songs of everyone
Look into the sun and see your soul is dying
Used to feel the faith, but now you're tired of trying
Should have left alone what you have stolen from everyone
How are you feeling?
You seem a little sick to me
From the light on high
A chance to change your fate
Forgiveness falling down
On those who chose to wait
Remember the time
Find yourself home again
Deep within your life
Find yourself home again find yourself home again
It's a choice
You have chosen your own
Mmmmm, it's like I told you
Like the chorus sends you light
If you raise the mask, who will lead us home tonight
Look into the sun and see your soul is dying
Used to feel the faith, but now you're tired of trying
Should have left alone what you have stolen from everyone
How are you feeling?
Look into the sun and see your soul is dying
Used to feel the faith, but now you're tired of trying
Should have left alone what you have stolen from everyone
How are you feeling?
Seems a little sick
It seems a little sick
It seems a little sick to me now
I once had marigolds for eyes.
I've seem to fade on sunny days.
When it's cold as the rain outside
Well then, so am I
So when it comes down
You'll know
I'm with you
How could I show you?
It feels good to know
It feels good to know you
We once had oceans left to fly,
Now the trees and the river have parted ways
When it seems like the phone has died
Well then, so have I
So when it comes down
You'll know
I'm with you
How could I show you?
It feels good to know
It feels good to know you
And how will you know?
We storm from a small, thin line
We're torn from the old frames
There's no one here to pull you back again
So when it comes down, you'll know.
Mmmmm, you'll know
Helena spilt to the ground how do I show you?
Should've known soon she would come down
Words were the first thing to go it feels good to know
The light they would never show
Helena how will you know?
Helena how do I show?
Helena how can you show
It feels good to know
It feels good to know you
It feels good to know you
It felt like the sun
We are hollow
Light to the world
Film star
Define all the ways
We are hollow
I am the ghost
You are song
So you walk away from me
Were you ever there?
You were too quick or cold to believe
Unbelievable
You can never fail, we can never fail
We can only go down south
In flames a place you forgot about
Oooooooooh
We are hollow
Light to the world
Film star
Define all the ways
We are hollow
I am the ghost
You are song
Lights that freeze turn perfect scenes into sorrow
Don't slip away
With all the words you had to say
You never had a prayer
You can never fail
We can never lose
We can only come down
Sink to your knees, let the others fire, sound
Well I fell out in the traffic
All that noise is coming at me
Cover noise and scream
And she was every kind of creature
Every twist that I imagined of a space
...
All your strength is about to be found
Crawling up out of the ground
Now play what you wanted to play
You say what you wanted to say
You finally found a way
All of the stars coming down
How did it feel when you hit the ground
It felt like the sun
We are hollow
Light to the world
Film star
Define all the ways
We are hollow
I was the ghost
You were song
It felt like the sun
It felt like the sun
It felt like the sun
I was the gost
You were song
It felt like the sun
It felt like the sun
Inside it's you feel so tired
Your minds move too fast
Until you're knocked back on the ground.
Feelings that will linger around
Summer here and the sun will find you
Falling out with the world around you
But you need not run away,
Cause everything's bound to change
We could work this out or just let it go
It's time to learn what we should know
That's the problem with me
See, there's a problem with me
That's the problem, problem with me
So, now you're old and the world has left you
It's so sick, you see just where they kept you down
Locked up in fear. we can change it all from here
Or simply let it disappear.
We could work this out or just let it go
It's time we learned what we should know
That's the problem with me
See, there's a problem with me
That's the problem
Fade out till tomorrow
You just keep standing there
Reelin' will follow spinning in the air
That's the problem with me
See, there's a problem with me
That's the problem
That's the problem with me
See, there's this problem with me
That's the problem, problem with me
All I wanted, all I wanted
All I wanted, all I wanted
We took you down there
To relapse in the sand
And we walked out in the open
Resolved to being seen
It was summer in the kitchen
So we stretched out in the grass
And the ones who came before us
Refused to let us pass.
Vulcan rots with liquor shots
Now he falls out in the room.
The sun breaks over us
The sun breaks over us
The sun takes over us
Therešs nothing to keep us tied here now
So I stayed down where you are
And when I found you
You had learned to see it new.
We went driving through the capitol
In our bathrobes and our shoes
The alarms had all gone crazy
With the hungers of the street
So we loaded up on spirits
To disfigure our defeats
Standing in line with the science of mind
My mind was preparing to leap
The sun breaks over us
The sun takes over us
The sun looks over us
Every sound has its purpose in life in your hands
Through the wall there's another one's chance to begin
All the ghosts from around will return to their graves
From the sound of the songs that we played
There's nothing to keep us tied here now
Here they come, here they come
Here they come and they might as well
Too many birds in my confusion now
Now they'll circle over this house till we take them in
You show me a sign to rise up from the world we know
And she's strung out on life
He soon rolls his teeth
Spilling out from a mouth fit to overflow
Back into me
She moves and it's fire fire underwater
Speaks of its flame she speaks my name
Well they all really want you
If only you that wanted them
Lights move in the chalk lines
Chains that define who I am
Here we are again how could I have seen?
Always she's driving how could I have known?
Right through the strangest calling I should have known
Straight through the sound gramarye, I've found
See how she's driving me down
Straight from the sound
She's seen as a bright sun to anyone
Hollow and mined
With the weight of the world
Trailing out till the last train
Discovers me
Alive on Vine
She moves and it's fire fire underwater
Speaks of its flame she speaks my name
As you move in a chalk line
Change in the dream that I am
Here we are the same
I used to see something in the idea
But only once did my hands reach
Anything beautiful
Now she's turned away
And I, ooooooh
We move in it's fire show me a sign, fire underwater
Speaking its flame, it speaks my name
She proves soon roll its teeth the liar,
On every one of them we are the same
Lights move in a chalk line
Change in the fire who I am
Here we are again
How could I have seen? always she's driving
How could I have known? right through the strangest calling
Straight through the sound,
Gramarye, I have found,
See how she's driving me
Always she's driving
Back through the strangest calling
Straight through the sound
Gramarye, I found
See how she's driving me down
Hey, I can't get my head straight
Of words we're twenty blocks too late
Now the devil is in my face
She seems to be looking down
And hey, have you heard about Mr. Crow?
Well, I think so but I don't know
Well, you can't let your panic show
My bones is beginning to shake
Reach out your hollow flame
Oh, you're hangin' so weird and strange
Oh, your darkest days
They're just beginning now
And hey, got to move all across this thing
As the moon has made everything mean
Now it tears apart my brain
My bones is beginning to shake
Reach out your hollow flame
Ohh you're hangin' so weird and strange
Ohh, your darkest days
They're just beginning now
Come and leave somehow
Lights to the world
The sun is rising
From the moon and the earth to the stars
Simple wings are simply pulled apart
My bones is beginning to shake
Reach out your hollow flame
Ohh you're hangin' so weird and strange
Ohh, your brightest days
They're just ending, ohhh
Your darkest days
They're just beginning now, ohh
Too much wine has crossed my mind
And closed the gates
Shadows move all across my room
In waves of late.
I almost think this table is alive
Black motorcycles
Nothing could go further in the dark
Circle and cycle
Now it's going to change
You say nothing stays the same
Stay, I'm afraid
I sleep all day
A thousand hours are in your mouth
I dreamed our learning
And now its time to dream our turning out
Black motorcycles
Nothing could go further in the dark
Circle and cycle
Now it's going to change
You say nothing stays the same
Mmmm hmmmm
This is on, it can't be wrong.
Black motorcycles
Nothing could go further in the dark
Goodnight, sweet Michael
And now you're gonna change
You say nothing stays the same.
Free and wild, an amazing child
You'll be my end
Hey, are you lonely?
Has summer gone so slowly?
We found the ground
And that damage was done
It's cold as you fade into the sun
Where'd you go? To me?
But you're alive!
Well, it's only
Fallen frames, they told me
You stand out, it's so loud
And so what if it is?
It's cold as you face into the wind
Where'd it go to? tonight the sun shall see its light
So what if you catch me,
Where would we land?
In somebody's life
For taking his hands
Sing to me hope as she's
Thrown on the sand
All of your work
Is rated again
Where to go ?
And you were somehow the ran thing could allow
But it's all wrong
You're so strong
And this life and work
And choice took far too long
Where'd it go? tonight the sun shall see its light
So what if you catch me,
Where would we land?
In somebody's life
For taking his hands
Sing to me hope as she's
Thrown on the sand
All of our work
Is rated again
When I was sure you'd follow through
My world was turned to blue so thin
When you'd hide your songs would die
So I'd hide yours with mine
And all my words were bound to fail
I know you won't fail
See, I can tell
Well. in our little house
There's always room
For all the friends
That help us through
These struggling days
And we never want for anything
That can't be had from one of them
It's better than mone
We're alive
We get by
You can spend the night
You can sleep right here
And we got heavy traffic on the stairs
With darlin' Sherrie over there and Sarah's back in town
Kim and Kay sit on the floor
While Zelda hides the closet doors,
Never to be found
See John smile and Mia sigh
Katie cries
Mia plays the violin.
This little world is all I need
And hey, this little world needs
Not much more to be a
Completely perfect world
We will be leaving soon
And we might never get back to you
But before we do
Goodbye and fare thee well
We're drinking up all of Eric's Gin
Waiting for all this weather to end
And we know it will
Now it's Jane and Sophie at the door
We rarely see them anymore
Kandi comes with Lou
Come on in
Where've you been?
Come on in
This little world is all I need
And hey, this little world needs
Not much more to be a
Completely perfect world
We will be leaving soon
And we might never get back to you
But before we do
Goodbye and fare thee well
Well, the neighbors have a little boy
They still put up with all our noise
And it's nice of them
Oh, Paris keeps the upstairs bright
Kafka ran away last night
We hope he comes back
He's our dog
Yes, I think he's gone
And that's too bad
He was a good dog
This little world is all I need
And hey, this little world needs
Not much more to be a
Completely perfect world
We will be leaving soon
And we won't never get back to you
But before we do
Goodbye and fare thee well
Ahh, hello big world
