I really don't know what I'm doing hereI really think I should've gone to bed tonight but..."Just one drinkAnd there're some people to meet youI think that you'll like themI have to say we doAnd i promise in less than than an hour we will honestly go...Now why don't I just get you anotherWhile you just say hello... "
Yeah just say hello...
So I'm clutching it tightAnother glass in my handAnd my mouth and the smilesMoving up as I stand upToo close and too wideAnd the smiles are too brightAnd I breathe in too deepAnd my head's getting lightBut the air is getting heavier and it's closerAnd I'm starting to swayAnd the hands all on my shoulders don't have namesAnd they won't go awaySo here I goHere I go again...
Falling into strangersAnd it's only just elevenAnd I'm staring like a childUntil someone slips me heavenAnd I take it on my kneesJust like a thousand times beforeAnd I get transfixedThat fixedAnd I'm just looking at the floorJust looking at the floorYeah i look at the floor...
And I'm starting to laughLike an animal in painAnd I've got blood on my handsAnd I've got hands in my brainAnd the first short retchLeaves me gasping for moreAnd I stagger over screamingOn my way to the floorAnd I'm back on my backWith the lights and the lies in my eyesAnd the colour and the music's too loudAnd my head's all the wrong sizeSo here I goHere I go again...
Yeah I laugh and I jumpAnd I sing and I laughAnd I dance and I laughAnd I laugh and I laughAnd I can't seem to thinkWhere this isWho I amWhy I'm keeping this goingKeep pouring it outKeep pouring it downKeeping it goingKeep pouring it downAnd the way the rain comes down hard...That's the way I feel inside...
I can't take it anymoreThis it I've becomeThis is it like I getWhen my life's going numbI just keep moving my mouthI just keep moving my feetI say I'm loving you to deathLike I'm losing my breathAnd all the smiles that I wearAnd all the games that I playAnd all the drinks that I mixAnd I drink until I'm sickAnd all the faces I makeAnd all the shapes that I throwAnd alll the people I meetAnd all the words that I knowMakes me sick to the heartOh I feel so tired...
And the way the rain comes down hard...That's how I feel inside...

I've been looking so long at these pictures of youThat I almost believe that they're realI've been living so long with my pictures of youThat I almost believe that the pictures are all I can feel
Remembering you, standing quiet in the rainAs I ran to your heart to be nearAnd we kissed as the sky fell in, holding you closeHow I always held close in your fear
Remembering you, running soft through the nightYou were bigger and brighter and whiter than snowScreamed at the make-believe, screamed at the skyAnd you finally found all your courage to let it all go
Remembering you, fallen into my armsCrying for the death of your heartYou were stone white, so delicate, lost in the coldYou were always so lost in the dark
Remembering you, how you used to beSlow drowned, you were angelsSo much more than everythingHold for the last time, then slip away quietlyOpen my eyes, but I never see anything
If only I'd thought of the right wordsI could've held on to your heartIf only I'd thought of the right wordsI wouldn't be breaking apartAll my pictures of you
Looking so long at these pictures of youBut I never hold on to your heartLooking so long for the words to be trueBut always just breaking apartMy pictures of you
There was nothing in the world that I ever wanted moreThan to feel you deep in my heartThere was nothing in the world that I ever wanted moreThan to never feel the breaking apartMy pictures of you

When I see you sky as a kiteAs high as I mightI can't get that highThe how you moveThe way you burst the cloudsIt makes me want to try
When I see you sticky as lipsAs licky as tripsI can't lick that farBut when you poutThe way you shout out loudIt makes me want to startAnd when I see you happy as a girlThat swims in a world of magic showIt makes me bite my fingers throughTo think I could've let you go
And when I see youTake the same sweet stepsYou used to takeI say I'll keep on holding youMy arms so tightI'll never let you slip away
And when I see you kitten as a catYeah as smitten as thatI can't get that smallThe way you furThe how you purrIt makes me want to paw you allAnd when I see you happy as a girlThat lives in a world of make-believeIt makes me pull my hair all outTo think I could've let you leave
And when I see youTake the same sweet stepsYou used to takeI know I'll keep on holding youIn arms so tightThey'll never let you go

I spy something beginning with 's'...
On candy stripe legs, the spiderman comesSoftly through the shadow of the evening sunStealing past the windows of the blissfully deadLooking for the victim, shivering in bed
Searching out fear in the gathering gloomAnd suddenly, a movement in the corner of the roomAnd there is nothing I can do, and I realize with frightThat the spiderman is having me for dinner tonight
Quietly, he laughs, shaking his headCreeps closer now, closer to the foot of the bedAnd softer than shadow and quicker than fliesHis arms are all around me and his tongue in my eyes
"Be still, be calm, be quiet now, my precious boyDon't struggle like that or I will only love you moreFor it's much too late to get away or turn on the lightThe spiderman is having you for dinner tonight"
And I feel like I'm being eatenBy a thousand million shivering furry holesAnd I know that in the morning I will wake up in the shivering coldAnd the spiderman is always hungry
"Come into my parlour," said the spider to the flyI have something...

"Show me, show me, show me how you do that trickThe one that makes me scream," she said"The one that makes me laugh," she saidAnd threw her arms around my neck"Show me how you do it, and I promise youI promise that I'll run away with youI'll run away with you"
Spinning on that dizzy edgeI kissed her face and kissed her headAnd dreamed of all the different waysI had to make her glow"Why are you so far away?" she said"Why won't you ever know that I'm in love with you?That I'm in love with you?"
YouSoft and onlyYouLost and lonelyYouStrange as angelsDancing in the deepest oceansTwisting in the waterYou're just like a dreamJust like a dream
Daylight licked me into shapeI must have been asleep for daysAnd moving lips to breathe her nameI opened up my eyesAnd found myself aloneAloneAlone above a raging seaThat stole the only girl I lovedAnd drowned her deep inside of me
YouSoft and onlyYouLost and lonelyYouJust like heaven

Say goodbye on a night like thisIf it's the last thing we ever doYou never looked as lost as thisSometimes it doesn't even look like youIt goes dark, it goes darker still, please stayBut I watch you like I'm made of stone as you walk away
I'm coming to find you if it takes me all nightA witch hunt for another girlFor always and ever is always for youYour trust The most gorgeously stupid thingI ever cut in the world
Say hello on a day like todaySay it everytime you moveThe way that you look at me nowMakes me wish I was youIt goes deepIt goes deeper still this touchAnd the smileAnd the shake of your headAnd the smileAnd the shake of your head
I'm coming to find you if it takes me all nightCan't stand here like this anymoreFor always and ever is always for youI want it to be perfect like beforeI want to change it allI want to change
I'm coming to find you if it takes me all nightCan't stand here like this anymoreFor always and ever is always for youI want it to be perfect like beforeI want to change it allI want to change
I want to change it allI want to change

It's a perfect day for kiss and swellFor rip-zipping button-popping kiss and well...There's loads of other stuff can make you yellLet's get happy!It's a perfect day for doing the unstuckFor dancing like you can't hear the beatAnd you don't give a further thoughtTo things like feetLet's get happy!
