Ultraviolet
Dancing on Broken Glass
This place a palace of light drawn with shade Of silence and pretence a token of our trade And here you and I lie wreathed in flames All over a life lived by making up new games Of gazes and whispers
I want you to know I still love you Even though we've been dancing on broken glass, Parade all your memories, for the moments we shared Never fade away
I want you to know I still love you When I walk down the memory lane Where the night swears its love to the stars There will be no more tears today, hey hey
We shared a penchant for cyanide praise Fashioned our armours of empathy's malaise And all of that hurt, and all of those words that we said You'd think we poisoned the ground on which we tread But the lining is silver
I want you to know I still love you...
The best of intentions will not see the road paved The end of illusions, who could ever be saved What's left behind in the storms that we braved The troubles we find and the chances we waived
We're going where dreams really come true And we won't be held back by our fears Come hell or high water We'll trust there's a life for us here this way
I want you to know I still love you...
My Dark Disquiet
Night, the world, it's mine, with nobody else out here It's time, run wild and royally cavalier To burn, ignite, I'd do it for so much less When all is made clear there is nothing else
And here we stand, the sweet arresting duality And I come to, it's resin all over me Will I awake, will I get a ride with you In this race of two
We're an endless stream of choices We're the softest murmur of voices
Without names we're fantasising Dancing like flames, mesmerising My dark disquiet playing such eerie harmonies
Making waves and diving under Lightning to the sound of thunder My dark disquiet singing such haunting melodies
So white, so still, so bright, it's almost too painful now I'm ready to fight, to run from the light
And here now comes the sweet corrupting reality While now I'm free, will I once cease to be Will I awake, will I get a ride with you In this race of two
We are momentary masters We're false kings and bastards
Without names we're fantasising...
We are marionettes by strings animated Yet like lovers of strings liberated
Without names we're fantasising...
Brothers by blood separated Marionettes animated Lovers of strings liberated
False Kings
Getting lost singing their song, oh Caught up in all I've done, oh It's all I know, but not what I need, oh Cut by my love, cut till I bleed
So I want to run to your shelter tonight Run to the shelter tonight United in silent resistance Of bowing to false kings
So let me run to your shelter tonight Run from this meaningless pantomime I'll swallow my pride, give up the pretence Of bowing to false kings
Bought their smiles, liquid and smooth Took their words for the truth, hey Edge of light and shade, ah My broken soul once more enslaved
So I want to run to your shelter tonight... ... I see the false kings I see that all this Must end
When there' s no love in my embrace Cold blood runs through my veins If I soar without grace Do I still soar I need the love in your embrace Open doors, brand new ways End my wars and erase And I'm yours
So I want to run to your shelter tonight.. ... I'll swallow my pride, give up the pretence Yes, I wined and, and I dined on, on that cyanide
Fool's Paradise
I remember laughter My rollercoaster emotions Oh, how they echo in my mind Like counterfeit excitement This happy pandemonium Of zooming in on our next high
And it feels like flying It's a fool's paradise And here we go denying That there's always a price And no easy way out But we can leave our gilded cages In the silence of minds
I remember the question Who are we really living for N' I could feel you by my side Rare like the flower Peace without euphoria This surrender feels so right
And it feels like flying...
There ain't no denying It feels like, like flying
Two worlds colliding, There ain't no bargaining No giving in without a fight Model of defiance In the face of adversity You keep your target in your sights
And it feels like flying Outta fool's paradise And there's no denying But I'll pay the price With my fear and doubt I'll leave them in their cages And rise to blinding heights
Standstill
Time spent like a spendthrift clown So many chances wasted So many hopes let down You didn't see how your pain Became your refrain You always thought there was tomorrow Wish you could get back what you let go
But it's alright if you fall You just get up, just go on Never mind the hurt, even if you burn Cos it's all, gonna be so much better The moment your true self's shining through Like the love when I'm finally holding you
First step after the fall So many more to take till I'm done with'em all With my hopes and my dreams, my anxieties But there is peace in no expectations Marvelling at the hallucination
Yeah, it's alright if you fall...
Through all these dawns Oh, winter blues Still wondering why And what's the use Oh, the first hello To the late goodbye When I'm made new, yeah
Yeah, it's alright if you fall...
The Sweet Escape
Lying in the arms of night In the shadows of the firelight Suspended by this feeling of fading away
I wanna run away with you So meet me by the cut through Together we'll make our sweet escape
Cos you're fearless in your love Devoted to compassion The highest state of art Piercing in your truth Sincere in all intention The way you wear your heart The way you hold my heart My fierce friend
Under a canopy of stars Where thought and truth divorce In that latticework of dreams we are shameless
I wanna run away with you Somewhere they cannot undo Together we'll make our sweet escape
Cos you're fearless in your love...
And this is why I love you Why you're the only one You're the only one Who has seen me come undone And then seen beyond
Cos you're fearless in your love...
I wanna run away tonight Just leave everything behind Together we'll make our sweet escape
In the shadows out of sight Like ghosts in ultraviolet
Moments Before the Storm
I will close my eyes to see your face again Let the love I feel rebuild my faith through pain, I remain Defences down Heart in my mouth
I still hear your voice, calling my name, And like every new choice, it carries the promise, That we'll find our love, that we're not just like moths to flame, Already lost, moments before the storm
I'll cast the telling bones to know my fate dealt hand And down the beach I'll trail your footprints in the sand, overland Till I'll kiss your brow again I'm right here now
I still hear your voice...
Are we collateral damage Is love its justification How do we sing our songs Despite
In truth it's visceral savage This magnetic sensation Cornered it becomes strong And it fights, to be right, to be right
I still hear your voice...
In a Perfect World
Baby, I've been feeling a bit on edge Lately, I've been careless at making bets. Living in a world where it's always Monday, One AM and dark, and it's always pouring Where you can feel the weight of a new day rising By the neon furies of advertising.
But baby, we're not here to stay,
So hey, hey, hey, hush, don't be crying now, hear, Cos any day fortune may wander down, dear, And we can see a world that is milk and honey, The tapestry of life as a beautiful journey. There's always a promise of a silver lining, There's that elation of perfect timing... In a perfect world...
Baby, I can see through their idle threats So easy I can walk through their bayonets. But even still I can stumble and fall, And every step I miss, it still takes its toll Even if I wise up there's always a price, Serenity betrays and troubles arise,
But baby, they're not here to stay,
So hey, hey hey, hush, don't be crying now, hear...
... In a perfect world we'd know just why
In a perfect world we would never lie In a perfect world there'd be no reason to cry In a perfect world, In a perfect world In a perfect world we'd never die
So hey, hey hey, hush, don't be crying now, hear...
Angel
I'm not looking for words I'm not running from hurt I just want you by my side
In this moment in time Feels I'm crossing a line I'm not looking to set things right
This tear I cry Falls like healing rain Softly soothes my pain This surrender it feels like I'll
Kiss the feathers of a hummingbird in flight Breaking up into a million specks of light Take the shape of an angel in the night Carry you to peaceful fields
My home is my skin And in the world I've within All I have is my love for you
If I conceal my fear Will I be in the clear Or am I giving life to phantom pain
Cos it's playing out Every note in the score I surrender once more But as my tears fall they still
Kiss the feathers of a hummingbird in flight...
Grant me one wish Send me one more kiss On the whispering wind Like white horses Running in the fields Something new begins
This tear I cry...
Kiss the feathers of a hummingbird in flight... In your dreams of peaceful fields
Choir of Cicadas
It's the season of dust trailing old pick up trucks Seashells washed ashore down by the docks So baby pull on your blue jeans turn the radio loud Don't wait for the hour to give birth to doubt
In the peak harvest of snakebites and wasted hindsight When trivial truths sit next to the taillights When fenders of chrome they rattle and hum All carved in the shape of freedom
Those flea market stalls in the bone dry noon Despite pretty signs, look cursed and marooned And trumpet notes wailing from the candy store Like a work of art of uneasy rapport
The wreckage, the blunder, the tarot read In the heat blurry air we're down in the field Where to the choir of cicadas' jubilee Among the clouds we once fell asleep
The sirens of the shipyard by those derelict whales Old mothers singing rusty old tales Like revving engines keening sky high Yet theirs is never a war cry
So I'll be your lover now, brazen and bright Like the flare of a match you struck in the night Though what does a stray know ‘bout holy and true But I'll always come to your rescue
Oh lord won't you hear your children cry Singing their praise and their hallelujahs I have no more words to describe An empty sky of hollow blue, yeah So where is my lover, my firelight The line on the edge of truth and rumour We took our vows in the heart of the night We were brazen and bright, when we were brazen and bright
