Portishead : Dummy (1994)
1. Mysterons
Inside your pretending,
Crimes have been swept aside,
Somewhere, where they can forget.
Divine upper reaches,
Still holding on,
This ocean will not be grasped.
All for nothing
Did you really want (x 4)
Refuse to surrender,
Strung out until ripped apart,
Who dares, who dares to condemn
All for nothing
Did you really want (x 4)

2. Sour times
To pretend no one can find,
The fallacies of morning rose,
Forbidden fruit, hidden eyes,
Courtesies that I despise in me
Take a ride, take a shot now.
'Cause nobody loves me,
It's true,
Not like you do.
Covered by the blind belief,
That fantasies of sinful screens,
Bear the facts, assume the dye,
End the vows no need to lie, enjoy,
Take a ride, take a shot now.
'Cause nobody loves me,
It's true,
Not like you do.
Who oo am I, what and why ?
'Cause all I have left is my memories of yesterday,
Ohh these sour times.
'Cause nobody loves me,
It's true,
Not like you do.
After time the bitter taste,
Of innocence decent or race,
Scattered seed, buried lives,
Mysteries of our disguise revolve,
Circumstance will decide.

Ohh ...,
Can anybody see the light,
Where the morn meets the dew,
And the tide rises,
Did you realise no one can see inside your view,
Did you realise forwhy this sight belongs to you.
Ohh ...,
Just set aside your fears of life,
With the sole desire
Done it warning,
Done in now,
This ain't real,
On in this side,
Done it warning,

4. It could be sweet
I don't want to hurt you,
No reason have I but fear,
And I ain't guilty of crimes accused me of,
But I'm guilty of fear.
I'm sorry to remind,
You but I'm scared of what we're creating,
This life ain't fair.
You don't get something for nothing,
Turn now,
Hmm gotta try a little harder,
It could be sweet,
Like a long forgotten dream,
And we don't need them,
To cast the fate we have,
Love don't always shine through,
'Cause I don't wanna lose,
What we had last time your leaving,
This life ain't fair
You don't get something for nothing,
Turn now,
Hmm gotta try a little harder,
It could be sweet.
But the thoughts we try to deny,
Take a toll upon our lives.
We struggle on in depths of pride,
Tangled up in single minds,
'Cause I don't wanna lose,
What we had last time your leaving,
This life ain't fair.
You don't get something for nothing,
Turn back,
Hmm, gotta try a little harder.

5. Wandering star
Please could you stay awhile to share my grief,
For it's such a lovely day,
To have to always feel this way,
And the time that I will suffer less,
Is when I never have to wake.
Wandering stars,
For whom it is reserved,
The blackness of darkness, forever,
Wandering stars,
For whom it is reserved,
The blackness of darkness, forever.
Those who have seen the needles eye, now tread,
Like a husk, from which all that was now has fled,
And the masks, that the monsters wear,
To feed, upon their prey.
Wandering stars,
For whom it is reserved,
The blackness of darkness, forever,

Doubled up inside,
Take awhile to shed my grief,
Always doubled up inside,
Taunted, cruel.

6. It's a fire
It's a fire,
These dreams they pass me by,
The salvation I desire,
Keeps getting me down.
'Cause we need to,
Recognize mistakes,
For time and again.
So let it be known,
For what we believe in,
I can see no reason,
For it to fail.
'Cause this life is a farce,
I can't breathe through this mask,
Like a fool,
So breathe on, sister, breathe on.
From this oneself,
Testify or tell,
It's fooling us now,
So let it be known,
For what we believe in,
I can see no reason,
For it to fail.

7. Numb
Unable so lost,
I can't find my way,
Been searching, but I have never seen,
A turning, a turning from deceit.
'Cause the child roses like,
Try to reveal what I could feel,
I can't understand myself anymore,
'Cause I'm still feeling lonely,
Feeling so unholy.
'Cause the child roses like,
Try to reveal what I could feel,
And this loneliness,
It just won't leave me alone, oh no.
I'm fooling somebody,
A faithless path to roam,
Deceiving to breath this secretly,
A silence, this silence I can't bear.
'Cause a child roses light,
Try to reveal what I could feel,
And this loneliness,
It just won't leave me alone, oh no,

Oh, can't anybody see,
We've got a war to fight,
Never found our way,
Regardless of what they say.

In the morning light,

No more can I say,
Frozen to myself.
I got nobody on my side,

9. Pedestal
How can I believe this miracle,
Where the wind blows dry,
Through the force of a man,
Undenied by his eye.
Oh you abandoned me,
How I suffer,
Ridicule breathes a sigh,
You abandoned me,
Lost forever,
Hush, can you hear.
Enter and rejoice this pedestal,
Where the rainbows hide,
Your destiny,
Mystery of all time.
Oh no time make or reason,
Ridicule breathes a sigh,
No time, make or reason,
Hush, hear him cry.

I'm lost, exposed,
Stranger things will come your way,
It's just I'm scared,
Got hurt a long time ago,
Can't make myself heard,
No matter how hard I scream.
Oh sensation,
Sin, slave of sensation.
Fully fed yet I still hunger,
Torn inside,
Haunted I tell myself yet I still wander,
Down, inside,
It's tearing me apart.
Oh sensation,
Sin, slave of sensation.
Sample repeat over and over :
I'll never fall in love again,
It's all over now.
At last, relief,
A mother's son has left me sheer,
The shores I seek,
Are crimson tastes devine,
Can't make myself heard,
No matter how hard I scream.

I'm so tired of playing,
Playing with this bow and arrow,
Gonna give my heart away,
Leave it to the other girls to play,
For I've been a temptress too long.
Hmm just,

Give me a reason to be,
A woman,
I just wanna be a woman.
From this time, unchained,
We're all looking at a different picture,
Through this new frame of mind,
A thousand flowers could bloom,
Move over, and give us some room.
Yeah,
