Mad Man on the Moon
03:33
|
|||
When morning comes
I’m on top of the world
Holding my breath
Dreaming the day is wrapped in mother of pearl
The silence within
Is like a brand new song
Melodies, notes and words
I haven’t heard in so long
Oh I’m a fool by night
A caged songbird that longs to fly
A Mad man on the moon
Lost his crazy head
In a dark balloon
The clock on the wall
Makes its way through the day
Piles of seconds, thoughts and cares
Come and drift away
Oh I’m a fool by night
A caged songbird that longs to fly
A Mad man on the moon
Lost his crazy head
In a dark balloon
You come to me
In your silver case
You share your stories, your memories
They bring tears to my face
Oh I’m a fool by night
A caged songbird that longs to fly
A Mad man on the moon
Lost his crazy head
In a dark balloon

Run Away
03:04
|
|||
Push and pull
Come and go
You’re closer than you think you are
Your lack of direction
Your own reflection
Is not taking you too far
Your words your illusion
Too much confusion
You’re making me head spin too fast
Your hands you actions
Your crazy reactions
You keep repeating your past
Run away run away run away
From me
This time I know where to go
To get all the love that I need
Lay down your cards
Lower your guard
Walk towards me
Gather your maps
I’m not setting traps
There are places we need to see
You say you’re not ready
It feels too unsteady
But this is as real as it gets
Open your eyes
I’m not telling lies
There’s no time for regrets
Run away run away run away
From me
This time I know where to go
To get all the love that I need

The Ghost of Yourself
03:20
|
|||
Don’t look at me
with those puppy eyes
Fill up my glass
With all your little lies
I’ll drink them all
Till I get a buzz
The smell in the air
Patchouli and cheap wine
The lights all arounds
Slowly underline
Your true profile
Empty and vain
Night after night
Day after day
It happens again
Again and again
You keep holding onto
the ghost of yourself
But he won’t be back (he was never real)
The story of your life
You told a million times
was never enough
To keep me satisfied
Your deepest end
Is shallow and dull
So bring me a pen
Let me write a note
You ‘ll read it when
The pain cuts your throat
Spring or fall
I’ll be gone

I wonder how it feels to be so free
Tu run barefoot by the sea
And be happy
I wonder what it means to be alone
Love yourself, hold your own
And be happy
There’s a simple remedy
I close my eyes and I see
I Touch my chest and feel the beat
Bb F/A Am C
The world is in my heart
The world is my heart
Stuck inside these narrow walls
Your brain too big, your head too small
You feel empty
In your mind you feel undone
You never lost you never won
You feel broken
There’s a simple remedy
Close your eyes & you’ll see
Touch your chest and feel the beat
The world is in your heart
The world is your heart
The world is in your heart
The world is your heart
The world is in your heart
The world is your heart

Looking for Bliss
03:15
|
|||
I’ve taken many walks holding my own hand
Wondering why things didn’t follow my plan
In the darkest hour when no one’s around
All I can do is follow the sound
of my heartbeat
It beats so fast and then it stops
Just like an old worn out clock
I long for that impossible balance
The peace, the pain, the silence
of your absence
You know something’s gotta give
When you are looking looking looking for bliss
In all the wrong places, all the wrong faces
All the things that you miss
Looking for bliss
Step by step I find myself falling
For all the lies you’ve been feeding me
And I ask myself and God above
Why you returned my velvet glove
and my diamond ring
You know something’s gotta give
When you are looking looking looking for bliss
In all the wrong places, all the wrong faces
All the things that you miss
Looking for bliss
Now close your eyes pretend I’m here
Try to touch me I’ll disappear
Picture my face smiling at you
I’ll be far from you life so blue
And your mood swings
You know something’s gotta give
When you are looking looking looking for bliss
In all the wrong places, all the wrong faces
All the things that you miss
Looking for bliss
You know something’s gotta give
When you are looking looking looking for bliss
In all the wrong places, all the wrong faces
All the things that you miss
Looking for bliss

You Don't Wanna Know
03:15
|
|||
You don’t wanna know you don’t wanna know
What’s beneath the surface what gives you a heartache
You don’t wanna know
So many times you said goodbye
So many times you said hello
You don’t even listen to your own words
You say you go with the flow
But you really don’t know
Years go by, the sun comes up and down
There’s really nothing to write home about
When you’re in too deep you can’t look around
When you live in fear you can’t look within, nor without
You don’t wanna know you don’t wanna know
What’s beneath the surface what gives you a heartache
Non lo sai non lo saprai mai
Che cosa c’e sotto, cosa si e’ rotto
Non lo saprai mai
You don’t wanna know
You don’t wanna know
How to look in the eyes
Of the lord of the flies
Staring back at you
Monsters come at night when you’re unprepared
Looking for a helpless prey
Sneaking quietly inside you head
Stirring your thoughts their own way
There’s a shadow at your feet
Following your steps as you turn
With just one mission to complete
Lead you to the fire and let you burn
You don’t wanna know you don’t wanna know
What’s beneath the surface what gives you a heartache
Non lo sai non lo saprai mai
Che cosa c’e sotto, cosa si e’ rotto
Non lo saprai mai
you don’t wanna know
What’s beneath the surface what gives you a heartache

The Guest
03:22
|
|||
The color of your soul is black and blue
Like the feathers you wear at night
When the sun goes down
You hide in the twilight
The sound of your steps is out of time
When you walk down the street
Look around
And tap your feet
You dance
dance
With the guest in your bed
With the ghost in your head
Smile at me from afar and read my lips
I’ll share with you my deepest fears
We’ll laugh out loud
And shed a tear
We dance
dance
With the guest in our bed
With the ghost in our heads
I’ll raise a glass for you before I go
Every time I dare to yawn
You take a sip of wine
And then you’re gone
I dance
dance
With the guest in my bed
With the ghost in my head
We dance
dance
With the guest in our bed
With the ghost in our heads

Go South
03:16
|
|||
Take me down the road
Sing your crazy song
Take me to that place
Where nothing ever goes wrong
I’ll be next to you
Through the thick and the thin
I’ll hold the dirty hand
You hide after you sin
Ooh oh
Make sure you wash your face
Make sure you wear a tie
I saw someone coming
Out of the corner of my eye
Don’t ever let them find you
With secrets in your mouth
If they catch you by surprise
Everything goes south
Go south, go south
We go south, we go
Heaven is too far
Your demons easily bore
Being a good boy
Just feels like a tedious chore
Hell is just another
Place you used to go
Nothing really new
Just people eating crow
Go south, go south
We go south, we go

Vola Via
03:03
|
|||
Vieni e vai, Non lo sai
Che sei a un passo da me
No hai direzione, Non hai una visione
Ti muovi senza un perche
Parole e illusione
Gran confusione
Sei fuori dalla realtà
Le tue mani, le azioni
Smisurate reazioni
Vivi nell’ assurdita
Vola via vola via vola via da me
Adesso lo so, meriterò un amore più grande di te
Adesso lo so cosa faro per dimenticarmi di te
Scopri le carte. Metti da parte
Le tue false verita
Guardati intorno, non hai bisogno
Di difenderti da me
Non ti senti mai pronto, fuggi il confronto
Questa e’ la vita che fai
Apri gli occhi, non ci sono trucchi
Il passato non lo cambierai

The Distance in Between
02:31
|
|||
Just stand still for a minute my soul
In this house alone
Count the seconds that go by
There’s nothing you should know right now
The light comes into the room
It never looked so bright
I stare into the hours ahead
And see a magic night
I can (will) learn to be quiet
Hold my own hand
And be my best friend
The distance in between
The stars and the sunrise
I will reach across time and space
And wipe your eyes
I can (will) learn to be quiet
Hold my own hand
And be my best friend
The distance in between
The stars and the sunrise
I will across time and space
And wipe your eyes

The Way that Your Are
03:39
|
|||
Ocean roll in, ocean roll out
Sometimes I wonder just what you’re about
They say you’re a body of love energy
Oh, but you look like an ocean to me
I like the way that you lean to the shore
But you always let go like you’ve been there before
They say you’re illusion, I say you’re an ocean
I hope you never go far
‘Cause I love you the way that you are
Puffy old clouds float through the sky
I love to watch you…I don’t know why
They say that you’re water drawn up from the sea
Oh, but you look just like clouds there to me
I like how you roll and you change with the wind
And the full moon behind you moves me from within
They say that you’re vapor, I say that you’re clouds
And you make me pick up my guitar
‘Cause I love you the way that you are
Stars in the heaven, stars in the night
I wish I may love you with all of my might
They say that you’re rocks up in space spinning free
Oh, but you look just like stars there to me
I love you forever like you were my own kin
Though they say that you can’t support life from within
But they say that you’re rocks, I say that you’re stars
You made me look up so far
And I love you the way that you are
Now all is in motion, can you feel it breathe,
Oh I never would change you…I couldn’t conceive
Of anything more perfect than what I believe
Is an ocean, a cloud, and a star
‘Cause I love you the way that you are
Yes, I love you the way that you are
