Lyrics - Paroles de chansons

We're caught in a landslide
No-one else is there
I try to be true
But I don't have the strength
Listening all alone in your room was your finest hour
Being overlooked by the ones who can only follow little men

We're caught in a landslide
We're caught in a net
And I'm caught in the middle
Leaving you miles ahead

How can you come this far
And never wished them dead?
I try to be true but I don't have the strength

We're caught in a landslide
We're caught in a net
And I'm caught in the middle
Leaving you miles ahead

Listening all alone in your home was your darkest hour
Being clothed and fed by the ones who can only follow little men

Caught in a landslide
Caught in a net
Caught in a landslide
Caught in a net
Caught in a landslide
Caught in a net
I must try harder

Bite the bullet
Maybe you can tolerate the pain
History will praise you
When you're lying in your grave
But maybe you deserve to have a name

Sometimes I wonder
What would Jesus have done?
Made another stand
And then be crushed like a bug?

I feel the need
I feel the need to blame
I have to know
I have to know a name

Bite the bullet
A little trick that
Foils the firing squad
Is there another
That could turn back the tide
And find the ones
Find the ones to blame?
Find the ones
Find the ones to blame

I have to know
We have to know a name

Was it more than you could take to be home for a while
Were you forgetting how to think?
Looking for a holy shiver, you couldn't find it here with me
You don't begin to understand

You knew that I'd let you go
But you knew that I'd try
To bestow some grace on you
Disarming you and bringing you back home

When you swim too far out
And the tide begins to turn
It's up to me to rescue you
I don't need you to thank me
But I deserve more than resentment
You're such a little child

You knew that I'd let you go
But you know that I'd try
To restore some faith in you
Disarming you and bringing you back home (x 3)

Separate the pedestrians
From those who are upwardly mobile
The carnivores
From those who are herded together

The

Daylight filters through and I am restless again
My mind is on fast forward through a hundred different plans
But I lie still, remembering I'm
Home again

I told myself that it was over, never again
But motion is seductive and how can I resist
Feeling reborn when I return
Home again

I'm out of synch
And at these times I feel most alive
But in the end
I'm reabsorbed in home again

I'm never going outside again
All I have is here

Tomorrow I'll cover page one
First the ruins, then the museum
Nothing life-changing's happened
But I'm hoping tomorrow it will

This won't help me (x 2)

The sunshine is angry as hell
So I don't like venturing out
My window looks onto a store
Selling tickets to get out of here

This won't help me
Fly me back now
This won't help me
Fly me back now
I think I've messed up
This won't help me

The strange thing about this store
Is the locals are queuing for flights
I think I'll go down there as well
Since I came here to see how they live...

This won't help me
Fly me back now
This won't help me
Fly me back now
This won't help me
Fly me back now
This won't help me
I think I've messed up (x 4)
Fly me back now

Tomorrow you could be reborn
In an explosion of sensation
Is that what you want
Sight and taste and sound
Burning up your new-born-baby self

Shed your skin
Maybe it'll do you a service
But underneath
You know that it'd mean nothing to me

Tomorrow you could be reborn
Seize the opportunity
Maybe useless flesh always dragged you down
Mirrors always breaking your resolve

Shed your skin
Maybe it'll do you a service
But underneath
You know that it'd mean nothing to me

Nothing masks or needs to be hidden
No one crowds you out

Shed your skin
Maybe it'll do you a service
But underneath
You know that it'd mean nothing to me

Nothing beats the one you were given
No one crowds you out

Advice to a lover
You don't have to suffer
Relax into your new life
Instinct is the enemy
Of all you have been taught
But now it's your only guide

And always remember
To be fully in control
Let go for a moment
And the turbulence takes hold

But yes it's worth it... I think
Really it's worth it... I don't know

Sometimes the feeling
Of utter contentment
Gets too much
But to worry about it
Is the ultimate luxury

And always remember
That it pays to lose control
Relax for a moment
Let the turbulence take hold

So yes, it's worth it, I think
But then what do I know - not much
Just as little as anyone
Probably less than you

Could I break through the walls you put me in?
Can I be sure you even keep me here?
Blood on my fingers seems to testify
To my imprisonment, but I have my doubts

My faith is on the wane
I will choose silence

Do I resist when you bring me bread?
Am I still tempted when you promise more?
Silence... I like the sound of it
If I keep it up, then will you let me go?

Blood on my fingers
Jesus was that really me?
Sorry thank you sorry thank you sorry thank you thank you let me go
Keep me here
Keep me here

Am I tempted
When you promise the world?
Blood on my fingers
Jesus was that really me?
Sorry thank you sorry thank you sorry thank you sorry thank you

I've been kicking back
Somehow I've been finding distractions everywhere
In the end there's so much, so much else I feel that I must devour

I wrote a song, a melody
Don't pull the covers over me
I wrote a song, a melody
Don't pull the covers over me

Maybe I wake up and feel off-kilter
On the wrong path to some dead end
But that isn't all
I protest my right to make my own mistakes

I wrote a song, a melody
Don't pull the covers over me
I wrote a song, a melody
Don't pull the covers over me
I wrote a song, to take or leave
What more do you want from me?
It even fed a need in me
Don't pull the covers over me

Did I call too late
To foil that hypnotist
Did I call too late
To foil that hypnotist

I talked you down
I brought you home
I cleaned you up
But you keep tugging
You keep tugging at the leash
When I leave I have to lock you in
But I don't like to
You know that it's only for the best

And I don't relish it at all
I don't relish it at all

Well, maybe I want to join you
In a state of pure united bliss
Who would be the guardian angel then?
Who would there be left to kick against?
I touch you
And you don't notice it at all
You don't notice it at all (x 3)

Berenice
Those insect-eggs
Are hatching out
And I think I'm going deaf
In one ear and my balance is shot
So you can guess
My dreams are filled
With brain-eating worms
But it's only when I wake
I really feel the HORROR

And I can't wait
To have you near again
And talk about
The things that
We both went through

I admit to fantasies
Of wrist-slashing
But it doesn't make me proud
Glamourous...
Or any such thing

I can't wait (x 4)

Sometimes I think I want to go
Back again
To the place where we were left
Cos ever since
Nothing can come close
And I can't wait
To have you near again
And talk about the things that
We both went through

Give it time
It takes time
It'll all come together
Let it flow through you
Let it flow
You know you can't force it
Nobody's counting the days
Nobody's lying in wait

You're so lucky, man
I hope you know
There's a light shining on you
Give him gold and it turns to stone
And you don't want to listen
The chains turn the wheel, my friend
The idiots make the deals
The days are slipping by, my friend
You may as well let it flow

Give it time
Maybe given time
There'll be good things to look back on
When nostalgia strikes you'll be surprised
That a part of you enjoyed it
The chains were always turning the wheel
The monsters were part of the deal
The days are slipping by, my friend
So let it flow

The chains turn the wheel, my friend
The idiots make the deals
The days are slipping by, my friend
And time is running out
The chains turn the wheel, my friend...
The monkeys type...
The days are slipping by, my friend
You may as well let it flow
