 Halfway Down The Sky » Die lirieke [+ Voeg +] |
1. _ Spin
There was a bright light
But it was an off white
Upside down memory
1:
I'm caught in a landslide
I'm caught in a joyride
As my blood
Begins to thin
2:
You say it's a fact
You say it's a feeling
To stab in my back
So long, sorry
It makes me cry (it makes me sad)
So wrong, so rare
But i don't feel
And you're not there
And i don't want you back
Well you had a hard day
Of pushing me away
Please don't push
I fall easily
Well you put a hard strain
Hard on the membrane
I react to words you say
It's not like i care
It's not like i'm bleeding
Or numb everywhere
But i don't
Cause i stopped spinning around for you
There was a bright light
But it was an off white
All the world came
Crashing down
Repeat 1
Repeat 2
But i don't feel it coming on again
It's making me high
Cause i stopped spinning around for you

2. _ Wallflower
Two more days is all you ever wanted
Paint your face it's time to be social
Standing on the edge of your feeling
So special
Looking at the center of a downward
Circle
It's a side we offend
It's the work of a fool
It's the sign of a freak
Who's uncool
Nobody understands wallflower
Nobody gives a damn wallflower
Cannot get into you
Look what you made me do
Down, i'm so down
If you kiss the dirt
Well then you'd see my reflection
Look around and i start to laugh
No more need for photographs
Was there something you meant to say
As i walked away?
It's the way we collide
It's the way we connect
It's the way we confuse
So rude
No one will want from you
Haven't you got a clue?
Cannot get over you
Look what you put me through
Down, i'm so down
If you kiss the dirt
Well then you'd see my reflection
Intentions - aggressions - pretensions

3. _ London
I've been to london
I've sailed a ship around the world
I've counted angels
I've seen a tangerine girl
And though it's leading me on
And though i know that it's wrong
And though i'm living my dream
I still can't seem to move on
I've swallowed aspirin
I've seen the white of my own eyes
I've felt the hunger
I've swallowed handfuls of flies
I've watched the felines
I've watched them scratch
My skin away
I've tripped the land mines
I've watched them
Blow my face away
I still can't finish this song
As she sang on

4. _ I Apologize
You're down
So stay there
I'm clipping your unearned wings
My dear
You cry
For the outside
But i don't think you'll see it know
For rain that's fallen
Halfway down the sky
I apologize
You float like an angel
But then i wipe your cloud
And throw you out
You fall
Cause you can't fly
But i don't think you'll
Feel it now
For rain that's fallen
Halfway down the sky
I apologize
For sunlight burning holes in through your eyes
I apologize
The scent of the semen
Is what brought you here
We've made this clear
We slide on your inside
But i don't think we'll
Need it now

5. _ Special
Better be good, i've said
Better be bad, i've done
Better be told what you want
Better believe in what?
Better to think about it
Better to live without it
Better be told what you want
Better believe in what?
You think you're so special
You think you're so clean
You think you're just better than me
Well first i chew you in
And then i spit you out
Better to leave, i doubt
Better to talk, about it
Better be told what you want
Better believe in what?
I wanna let go
I wanna stay home
And be myself
I wanna let go
I wanna stay home
I'm justified
You think it gets better than this?
But should i take you in?

6. _ Monotone
Roll over monotone
I've got something to say to you
I can't speak in stereo
And i don't want you to be confused
There's no need to analyze
There's no need to form an affliction
You're so bored and paralyzed
As you're making another excuse
I can't handle it, i'm intolerant
I rip off my shirt and i deal with it
I won't through a fit, i don't give a shit
I fall flat on my face in the back
Of this one
Collect me monotone
Cause i think i'm falling to pieces
I'm so strange, you should've known
While i lick all the salt off these wounds
For this one
I'm hating myself for
I want nothing more
We have such a strange design

7. _ Space Boy
I won't tell you my name
I avoid all those things
All together
I'm so high
Well i know it was dumb
Staring right at the sun
Stoned forever
Well it won't be the first or the last time
The world passes by
I'm a spaceboy
I don't want to be found
I'm a spaceboy
So stop holding me down
And i'd love
If i never returned to the ground
Well can we still be friends?
Well i guess that depends
How's the weather from so high?
Well i know it's a shame
Why do you cause all this strain
All together
Well it won't be the first or the last
Time i wanted to try
I'm a spaceboy
I don't want to look down
I'm a spaceboy
I've been floating around
And i'd love
If i never returned to the ground
I can see all the world going by
I'm a spaceboy
I don't want to be found
I'm a killjoy
So stop holding me down
And i'd love
If i never returned to the ground

8. _ Yeah, Whatever
And you're primitive
And you're cynical to me
And i chewed down on the bit
And almost swallowed it
You sit all alone with your color tv
Your hair starts to glisten
In spite of the fleas
We don't have to stay friends
Let's pretend to be enemies
Yeah, whatever makes you happy
Yeah, whatever makes it beautiful
Yeah, whatever leaves you satisfied
Cause i'm out of time
For now
And you're paranoid
As you look me up and down
And i'm soaked in gasoline
Mud and ice cream
You sit by the phone with your tongue hanging out
You cradle the flies in the back of your mouth
We don't have to stay friend
Let's pretend to be enemies
Damned if you do
Fucked if you don't
Damned if you do
What if you won't
You must be aware what you're doing to me
We sunk like a stone on a rock in the sea
We don't have to stay friends
(not for very long)
We don't have to stay friends
(just because you're gone)
You get what you want cause you won't let it die
Yeah, whatever makes you happy
Yeah, whatever leaves you insecure
Yeah, seems to break you down
Cause i'm out of time
But i'm feeling fine

9. _ Cigarette
Got myself a job
Gonna move up that corporate ladder
Follow in the footsteps of all my friends
Have another cigarette
So why you tripping on me?
I can't take all the pressure
Gotta find some way to cope with this
Have another cigarette
And live 'til you die
I'm not afraid
I'm unafraid
I'm different from the rest somehow
Blind to the wind, the news
And the culture
Deaf to the sound that leaks
From your voice
Take a deep breath and pray
For a second one
Have another cigarette
So what do you think of me now?
I'm not here to impress you
I'm not the one who's insecure
Springtime, jesus, flower, firefly
Sister, sunday, winter, mother
Start learning to fall
I could never be like this
I could never be like this
Start learning how to fall down
Will you ever believe me?
Will you never be with me?
Start learning to crawl
Springtime, jesus, flower, mother

10. _ Halfway Down The Sky
You've been pushing but i don't agree
Cause there was nothing ever here for me
If you could see the circles in my eyes
I tried
Let's get this whole thing out<p>
I cannot be responsible
I don't care
I cannot be responsible
For you
Do you know where you are?
God i can't believe that i'm still here
And it's purpose wasn't very clear
I'm gonna take the time to wash away
This day
Let's get the whole thing out
With all i have and all you know
Don't trust me cause i'll hurt you so
As simple as a syllable
Be tired of my kind

11. _ I Think God Can Explain
there's a lot of things i understand,
And there's a lot of things,
That i don't want to know.
But you're the only face,
I recognize, it's so damn sweet of you,
To look me in the eyes.
It's all right, i'm o.k.,
I think god can explain,
I believe i'm the same,
I get carried away
It's alright, i'm o.k.,
I think god can explain
I'm relieved, i'm relaxed,
I'll get over it yet,
The scent of vaseline,
In the summertime,
The feel of an ice cube,
Melting over time,
The world seems bigger than both of us,
Yet it seems so small,
When i begin to cry.
It's all right, i'm o.k.,
I think god can explain,
I believe i'm the same,
I get carried away
It's alright, i'm o.k.,
I think god can explain
I'm relieved, i'm relaxed,
I'll get over it yet,
I'm so much better than you guessed,
I'm so much bigger than you guessed,
I'm so much brighter than you guessed.
It's all right, i'm o.k.,
I think god can explain,
I believe i'm the same,
I get carried away
It's alright, i'm o.k.,
I think god can explain
I'm relieved, i'm relaxed,
I'll get over it yet,
I'll get off of your back,
I think god can explain.
I think god can explain.
I think god can explain.

12. _ Supernatural
Beautiful feather hovering overground
We're similar
We're both being pushed by the wind
Through the air
To wherever
Haven't i seen you before?
Haven't you been here before?
As we both sit together
Whatever
As the wind blows
It's so supernatural
Let it fly
Wonderful words lying in the grass
We're similar
We're both getting cut of again
Together
Whatever
As we both sway
We must stop meeting this way
We've both been living ok
Cause we fell so far
From this tree again
And the sun is my best friend
And the earth opened up to me
We've been separate for so long
So long
It's so supernatural
Now everything's beautiful
We fell far from this tree
For so long
We crawled out of this stream
For so long
What's become of you?
What's become of me?
It's ok, it's ok
It's part of everything
It's natural
It's part of everything

13. _ I Don't Understand
When i'm asleep
I leave the light on
And try to breathe
Relive the moment i was born
I feel the breeze
It feels electric
Then mockery
Another headache i reject
Suppose the feeling's real
You'd never know
Suppose it's what you feel
You'll never know
That's what i don't understand
That's what i don't know
Now i'm awake
I leave the light on
And take a swim
Beneath the rocks and undertow
I try to scream
I don't remember where i've been
A trampoline
Another lack of oxygen
Suppose the feeling's real
You'd never know
Suppose it's what you feel
You'll never know
I open my mouth but there's
Nothing to swallow down
I'm scratching my face like there's
Something, farther down
It's like a drug
I turn the light off
And pull the plug
But still it always comes back on
Suppose you change your mind
And back again
Suppose you had more time
And adrenaline
