Bloodflowers
Album - 2 febbraio 2000 - Debaser id 19986

I've been watching me fall for it seems like years
Watching me grow small
I watch me disappear
Slipping out my ordinary world
Out my ordinary eyes
Yeah slipping out the ordinary me
Into someone else's life
Into someone else's life...

There's a thin white cold new moon
And the snow's coming down
And the neon bright Tokyo lights
Flicker through the crowd
I've been drifting around for hours
And I'm lost and I'm tired
When a whisper in my ear
Insatiable breeze
Why don't you follow me inside?

Yeah the room is small
The room is bright
Her hair is black
The bed is white
And the night is always young
Is always young
Always young
The night is always young...

Yeah I've been seen stripped to the bone
In the mirror on the wall
Seeing her swallow him whole
Like it's not me at all
She holds out her hands
And I follow her down to my knees
And the sucking inside
Insatiable smiles
You will forget yourself in me...

Yeah the room is small
The room is bright
Her eyes are black
The bed is white
And the night is always young
And the night goes on and on
And the night is always young
And the night is never over and over and over and over and over...
And then it's gone
And then it's gone
Yeah then it's gone

Yeah it's a cruel mean cold new day
And outside the snow is still coming down
And in the blood red Tokyo bed
I watch me coming round
She pulled him down for hours
Deeper than I've ever been
And as I fall in the mirror on the wall
I'm watching me scream
I'm watching me scream
I'm watching me scream

I'm watching me scream

Yeah I've been watching me go for it must be years
Watching me get slow
I watch me disappear
And one day, yeah I know
I won't come back at all...
And always over and over
In his ordinary eyes
I'm watching me fall
I'm watching me fall
I'm watching me fall

I'm watching me fall

The world is neither fair nor unfair
The idea is just a way for us to understand
But the world is neither fair nor unfair
So one survives
The others die
And you always want a reason why

But the world is neither just nor unjust
It's just us trying to feel that there's some sense in it
No, the world is neither just nor unjust
And though going young
So much undone
Is a tragedy for everyone

It doesn't speak a plan or any secret thing
No unseen sign or untold truth in anything...
But living on in others, in memories and dreams
Is not enough
You want everything
Another world where the sun always shines
And the birds always sing
Always sing...

The world is neither fair nor unfair
The idea is just a way for us to understand
No the world is neither fair nor unfair
So some survive
And others die
And you always want a reason why

But the world is neither just nor unjust
It's just us trying to feel that there's some sense in it
Mo, the world is neither just nor unjust
And though going young
So much undone
Is a tragedy for everyone

It doesn't mean there has to be a way of things
No special sense that hidden hands are pulling strings
But living on in others, in memories and dreams
Is not enough
And it never is
You always want so much more than this...

An endless sense of soul and an eternity of love
A sweet mother down below and a just father above
For living on in others, in memories and dreams
Is not enough
You want everything
Another world
Where the birds always sing
Another world
Where the sun always shines
Another world
Where nothing ever dies...

No I won't do it again, I don't want to pretend
If it can't be like before I've got to let it end
I don't want what I was, I've had a change of head
But maybe someday...
Yeah maybe someday

I've got to let it go and leave it gone
Just walk away, stop it going on
Get too scared to jump if I wait too long
But maybe someday...

I'll see you smile as you call my name
Start to feel, and it feels the same
And I know that maybe someday's come
Maybe someday's come...
Again!

so tell me someday's come tell me some days come again...

No I won't do it some more, doesn't make any sense
If it can't be like it was, I've got to let it rest
I don't want what I did, I had a change of tense
But maybe someday...

I'll see you smile as you call my name
Start to feel, and it feels the same
And I know that maybe someday's come
Maybe someday's come...

If I could do it again maybe just once more
Think I could make it work like I did it before
If I could try it out
If I could just be sure
That maybe someday is the last time
Yeah maybe someday is the end
Oh maybe someday is when it all stops
Or maybe someday always comes again...

Yeah it's a snow white original mix
And she's fixing me
And the heartless thing she does
Is everything I love
It's all I ever need
Yeah it's a skin tight sensational strip
And she's tripping me
And the shameless way she turns...
Is all I ever dream
You ask me why I use it
It could be just a way
To pass the time
I never really choose it
It's just another play
To lose...
My mind...
Yeah it's a bright light
Promotional taste
And she's wasting me
And the tearless time she breaks
Is everytime I ache
It's all I ever feel
You ask me why I need it
It's maybe just a way
To pass the time
I never really mean it
It's just another play
To lose...
My mind...
Yeah it's a big night emotional kill
And she's thrilling me
And the careless way she hurts...
Is all I ever scream
You ask me why I take it
It could be just a way
To pass the time
I never really make it
It's just another play to lose...
I'm coming up in the dark
And every part of me is bruised and raw
And pained
I'm coming up in the dark
And every part of me is loose and sore
And stained
And so I play it when I use it
If I need it
Then I take it
And I play it all again...
And then I hold you...
So cold you...
Like I know you...
Yeah like I always know
And like I always lose...
My mind...
My mind...
Yeah I play it when I use it
If I need it
Then I take it
And I play it all again...
And then I hold you...
So cold you...
Like I know you...
Yeah like I always know
And like I always lose
Yeah like I always lose
Like I always lose...
My mind

So the fire is almost out and there's nothing left to burn
I've run right out of thoughts and I've run right out of words
As I used them up, I used them up...

Yeah the fire is almost cold and there's nothing left to burn
I've run right out of feeling and I've run right out of world
And everything I promised, and everything I tried
Yeah everything I ever did I used to feed the fire

I used to feed the fire
I used to feed the fire
I used to feed the fire
But the fire is almost out - is almost out...
And there's nothing left to burn
No there's nothing left to burn
Not even this...

And the fire is almost dead and there's nothing left to burn
I've finished everything...
And all the things I promised, and all the things I tried
Yeah all the things I ever dreamed I used to feed the fire

I used to feed the fire
I used to feed the fire
I used to feed the fire
But the fire is almost out...

Half my life I've been here
Half my life in flames
Using all I ever had to keep the fire ablaze
To keep the fire ablaze
To keep the fire ablaze
To keep the fire ablaze...
But there's nothing left to burn
No there's nothing left to burn
And the fire is almost out
The fire is almost out
Yeah the fire is almost out
Almost out, almost out
Almost out, almost out...

And there's nothing left to burn

'This dream never ends,' you said
'This feel never goes
The time will never come to slip away
This wave never breaks,' you said
'This sun never sets again
These flowers will never fade'

Never fade

'This world never stops,' you said
'This wonder never leaves
The time will never come to say goodbye
This tide never turns,' you said
'This night never falls again
These flowers will never die'

Never die
Never die
These flowers will never die
Never die

'This dream always ends,' I said
'This feeling always goes
The time always comes to slip away
This wave always breaks,' I said
'This sun always sets again
And these flowers will always fade'

'This world always stops,' you said
'This wonder always leaves
The time always comes to say goodbye
This tide always turns,' I said
'This night always falls again
And these flowers will always die'

Always die
Always die
These flowers will always die

Between you and me
It's hard to ever really know
Who to trust
How to think
What to believe

Between me and you
It's hard to ever really know
Who to choose
How to feel
What to do

Never fade
Never die
You give me flowers of love

Always fade
Always die
I let fall flowers of blood
