Talk Talk

Hey hey hey
Why did I tell you before when I was up
Anxiety was bringing me down
I'm tired of listening to you talking in rhymes
Twisting round to make me think you're straight down the line

Chorus:
All you do to me is talk talk
Talk talk talk talk
All you do to me is talk talk
Talk talk talk talk
All you do to me is talk talk

If every sign that I see is complete
Then I'm a fool in your game
And all you want to do is tell me your lies
Won't show the other side you're just wasting my time

(chorus)

When every choice that I make is yours
Keep telling me what's right and what's wrong
Don't you ever stop to think about me
I'm not that blind to see that you've been cheating on me

And here you laugh at me when I'm up
I see you when you're crying for me when I'm down
I see you when you're laughing at me when I'm up
I see you when you're crying for me

(chorus)

It's so Serious

I've given everything with nothing in return
I'm filled with images that play on every word
No one to tell me there's a cloud before my eyes
Not only broken I don't know the reason why

It's so serious

This endless sea of tears the feeling that I'll drown
I'd try to catch them but they're sure to touch the ground
My world of emptiness a child without a toy
Forgiving anything restore me to my joy

It's so serious

Today

Cover me with shades of disbelief
Can happiness be someone's else's dream
Numbers call to spell my name
Move about as values change
Catch me if you can but don't delay

Today Today
It's a dream away
Today Today

Governed by the title on the wall
Commit me to a life within a fool
Happiness can often bleed
Beggars lay among the sheep
Let me take the choice the sermon please

Chorus:
Today Today
It's a dream away
Today Today
A dream away

Visions in my cell begin to breed
Was everything a fact of what I'd read
Excuse me while I spell my name
Boat and ship could sound the same
Catch me if you can but don't delay

(Chorus)

Belle Malissima

(chorus)

The Party's Over

The party's over
I never thought you'd stay
The love of laughter
My truth's no longer sane

The party's over
Much older than you'd say
This friend of no one
Time creases on your face

Take a look at the kids
I've been losing track
This crime of being uncertain of your love
Is all I'm guilty of

The party's over
I never thought you'd stay
A style of reason
This life of masquerade

Take a look at the kids
I've been losing track
This crime of being uncertain of your love
Is all I'm guilty of

Take this punishment away Lord
Name the crime I'm guilty of
Too much hope I've seen as virtue
Name the crime I'm guilty of

Hate

Hate

Relax your stare
It's laughing in my face
My foes beware
I'm tired of losing grace

The child's not there
The priest is losing faith
Defile my care
And stumble to the flames

Chorus:
People crying
People crying
People crying
People crying
My confusion
My confusion
Are there illusions?
There illusions?
Hate

The dice won't lose
They've everything to gain
Devout prepare
The stones along my grave

(chorus)

Don't say a word if I've been away too long
I found out it's wrong
I found out I don't need hate
I don't need hate

Have You Heard the News?

I'm picking up again
Well it got too much
After the accident
It could feel no worse
I turned around and saw him hit the ground

A little earlier it was a game
I guess the barrier must have dropped away

I don't like to read the news
Do you know anything I'm going through?
I don't like to read the news
Do you know anything I'm going through?
And she calls

Did you see my photograph?
It was on page ten
I swore to everyone
I'm not to blame
I turned around and saw him hit the ground

A little earlier it was a game
I'm so disposable you can throw me away

I don't like to read the news
Do you know anything I'm going through?
I don't like to read the news
Do you know anything I'm going through?
And she calls

What a fool I've been
Didn't get to him in time
What's been happening?
It's so hard to sleep at night now
To sleep at night

I don't like to read the news
Do you know anything I'm going through?
I don't like to read the news
Do you know anything I'm going through?
And she calls

Mirror Man

Out in the street today
We're parading around
We're the height of the fashion
And she laughs 'cos we look the same
And follow all of the rule

Every little bit of my time
Keeps me checking that my clothes are in line
I'll identify without wasting time
Mirror man

Inside of her room today
She's been working all hours
For the final presentation
Each day dressed a different way
She's the star of the road

Every little bit of her time
Keeps her checking that she stays out of line
She'll wear anything you can't recognise
Mirror man

See the state she's in

Another Word

And when you're hanging 'round
Waiting on the other side of town
Kick a stone on a painted wall

And when the riot comes
Keep your head and keep your loving charm
Living life is a glamour show

But it's another word
It's another word

All soldiers have a cause
Giving life upon graffitied walls
As a way to pass the time

I saw a father's tear
For a leader standing over here
'Who's the King?' says a passer by

But it's another word
It's another word
Word

And when you're hanging 'round
Waiting on the other side of town
Kick a stone on a painted wall

And when the riot comes
Keep your head and keep your loving charm
Living life is a glamour show

But it's another word
It's another word
Word

Candy

This sure is some kind of party
It's so useful
Surround my life with excuses
For what I choose to lose

And my name
Doesn't look the same to me now now
No no not me now
And inside
Don't you know I feel so bad?

When I tried to turn away
To feel new again
Candy
My emotion cost me pain
Did I look the same?
Candy
When I think about the times
That I laughed away
Candy
The idea you'd cheat me
But look again
What you say
'That's my name'

And I hope that I've kept you amused
To wipe that spit right off my boots
And when I'm home and thinking in the dark
I hope I hope I hope
That none of this has had to go too far

When it gets too late
To see me any other way
And it gets so hard to hold on
To everything that I want so bad yeah yeah
Candy

When I tried to turn away
To feel new again
Candy
My emotion cost me pain
Did I look the same?
Candy
When I think about the times
That I laughed away
Candy
The idea you'd cheat me
But look again
What you say
'That's my name'
