Hurricanes 04:17
Hold me, calm me down again but I don't wanna sleep anymore, sleep won't ever do 'cause I'd still wake up here where people chase things I don't care and angels dream of heaven I don't mind being the last of the rejects as long as I have you I won't fight to be the hero who cries alone bring me a hurricane, a hurricane, a hurricane, a hurricane out of the blue. It always frightens me who knows anything of everything of all there is to know. You leave me breathless and filled with real wonder, little Venus, my little goddess I don't mind being the last of the rejects as long as I have you. Sometimes I wish you still fear losing me, it's silly... a hurricane, a hurricane, a hurricane, a hurricane out of the blue. There is calm here again… I don't mind seeing me done, torn, gone. Hurricanes, hurricanes out of the blue.

Is it snowing is it snowing where you are? 'Cause you told me that it really snows a lot there. Are you warm enough? Is somebody taking care of you better than I ever could? And I know I barely know you but I'm lost... I can't give meaning to my words And I can't find you in any song I've heard so I guess this one's for you and Christmas's coming and I don't wanna feel sad like this anymore and Christmas's gone and I don't wanna feel sad. Your hair painted lights upon your face and I wished you'd have felt the same. Is it raining is it raining the same rain I'm hearing now, that's hitting my window pane? Are you dancing are you dancing to the same sound? Cause there might be a chance that we're closer than we really are. And in my mirror someone else's face, I keep pretending I'm ok but even my cat is running away from me 'cause I scare the hell out of him. If you were mine I would never let you go if you were mine but you're not. And the sky is the bluest shade of grey while I need you to feel the same. And I'm not sure if the spring will ever come without her without her without...

It's been really ages since I closed my eyes a ball, a coke and jelly beans summer's for the kids it's summer time again I don't know where I was looking for the summer rain now I'm looking for the summer Some people hate they find new reasons all day is it any wonder? they like it that way but summer's for the lovers it takes care of no others the others are just wrong the others are just wrong I scream, something aches down in my heart summer's for the olds and stories to be told while history goes on though it doesn't know where it's going so I'm looking for those summer days I don't know, I don't get this blood I don't think there's truth I don't think there's truth I've never been a melancholy mess like this and summer's almost gone summer's almost gone

For what it's worth I never want things to go from bad to worse, even though it seems like this. Now it's my turn got to hear me, hear me, hear me but you never listen to me, baby you just make up your mind and that is all You say I'm wrong but you know I'm right I know when you sham after all this time I can call your bluff today and every single day oh baby now I claim my right to talk and I'm gonna talk 'bout the weather all day long till it brings the rain and grey clouds over the sea. Oh no, it's clear: you are leaving, leaving, leaving I just can't stand you're doing it first, I should have done that a long long time ago! You say I'm wrong but I'm sure I'm right I should feel ashamed I just feel uptight When did we get so boring? When did we get so bored? Well I'd like to know before you go now! and it's... oh, you know, hard to say I was wrong but I was out of my mind when I let you know that it would be alright if one day you just went away to not come back again but what will become of me in this life? hear what I'm saying, we both can make mistakes oh, every single day and that's how it must be but I'm begging you please we need to find a way, right or wrong is just the same if I can't have you, baby, it's just insane.

Dreambuster 02:33
Dreambuster it's all ready, wait and see the long shiny pipes are pumping in the big machine. But be careful don't let them take it away from you don't let them take you away Dreambuster they put you in front of a screen all those phone calls and words don't come out easily and you know that you're gonna die in that call center you're gonna lose all your dreams. Dreambuster you gotta run away and be free from these bastards, build your house up on a hill, it ain't too late, now go and find a place with no Facebook, I see you in a dream.

Alright, so I'm getting a taste of what it's like and no, I can't tell you that I like it too much. Tonight the moon spreads its light on the broken-hearted people take care of them night. There's a shadow crumpling in the street but it's not me, it can't be me. First kiss, last kiss hit or miss and there's a chance you'll break my heart First laugh, last laugh smile at nothing and your words stuck in my mind and days are crazy, lazy, hazy it seems we have to play a part. Nothing serious, nonsense, is it? somehow you have changed my life 'bout you there really really is something 'bout you I can't let go 'bout you there really really is something 'bout you I can't forget. Tonight I am really thinking to oh, what the hell was I looking for and I wonder if I learned a fucking thing or two, I wonder if I learned a thing or two. Is it something we can really do? I mean, learning from pain. One or two? Were we one or two? but I know that it's gone, it doesn't matter now though it looks like all that ever mattered First one, last one running fast just asking for a brand new start First fuck, last fuck good luck, bad luck there's a chance I'll break your heart and really caring, really selfish, my blame if we fell apart hide the feelings, show the feelings don't pretend that you're so smart 'bout you there really really is something 'bout you I can't let go 'bout you there really really is something 'bout you I can't forget Tonight there's a shadow crumpling.

Didn't like the growing up thing, but what about her? She is crystallized in a picture for ever and it won't let her go, an iron frame keeps her from the world. Oh, Emma, what about time? And I'd like to crash the clocks that rule our lives, all of them but I can't dissolve the borders of our minds, they're always there. There is music playing in her head, her hair is floating and Emma doesn't mind, Emma's on the swing. And she's suddenly aware of a new weight that is soft like the snow but still it hurts and so she's praying that the days won't get shorter that summer never ends and there is no fall that time can be defeated if you really want to and there's no school tomorrow, there is no tomorrow. But somehow a smile can break through like a cloud's silver lining she can see she's just another kind of star, only darker in the middle of a thousand neon lights. Emma's on the swing and it's ok, Emma's on the swing shining bright, Emma's on the swing.

And I forget the things that you say, because no, I, I couldn't care less and maybe I've not really listened in the first place, not a word the point is you are such a bore, just leave me alone, I just told you goodbye 'cause outside the sun is shining but if it rains it's gonna clean my dirty wings oh how could I have kept them idling? I won't forgive myself if I don't spread them again I'm ready to fly And I forget the things that you say but I can't help it, you're just useless and wisdom is just an excuse for being fearful, dumb and old and I can't waste my precious time on matters that are already worn 'cause outside the sun is shining but if it rained I wouldn't mind 'cause sun and rain they both enlighten me I wish some air could reach your mind, the stinky bottom of your mind your narrow mind oh your poor poor mind poor poor mind and outside the sun is shining but if it rains it's gonna clean my dirty wings oh how could I have kept them idling? I won't forgive myself if I don't spread them again I'm ready to fly

24 pearls hide somewhere in my eyes; and 24 stairs, leading me on a top that I don't want to see now oh, don't leave me, don't ever let me, don't leave me, don't ever let me down ever let me down. I'm shivering with pain, 24 riddles the answer's the same. So Dylan Thomas was a lot better than me… I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry but don't leave me don't ever let me, don't leave me don't ever let me down ever let me down.
