LYRICS - "Run With The Faithless"
1. Congratulate Our Thievery
2. Run With The Faithless
3. Edge of Defeat
4. The Thrill
5. Wanna Have You
6. Fall For You
7. The Loner
8. Same Old Ground
9. Nobody Knows
10. Did You Say
11. Steal Us Away
12. Dying Age
CONGRATULATE OUR THIEVERY
The sound of change is on the ground
Not the kind to bring us 'round
We're coloured green by all accounts
Sleep with greed to soothe the doubt
Congratulate our thievery
Take all we can religiously
Hide your card, save your face
These are the days
We say...
What's in it for me? (Feed your thievery)
We say... (Take all you can before they see)
What's in it for me?
What's the measure of success
To play the pimp in the land of excess
What's the measure of defeat
Feed them cake and watch them eat
Congratulate our thievery
Take all we can religiously
Hide your card, save your face
These are the days
We say...
What's in it for me? (Feed your thievery)
We say... (Take all you can before they see)
What's in it for me?
RUN WITH THE FAITHLESS
He's wearing God on his sleeve
A preacher's tone when he speaks
His hidden cause has one aim
To stand upon a higher plane
So walk upon the water, walk upon the water
or
Run with the faithless
Act like you're blameless
The truth's in the light of your eyes
Look to your maker
Is fear gonna save you?
The truth's in the light of your eyes
He stands behind a holy face
If you side with him you might die with grace
But don't think outside of the lines
Or sin may take you from behind
So walk upon the water...
or
Run with the faithless
Act like you're blameless
The truth's in the light of your eyes
Look to your maker
Is fear gonna save you?
The truth's in the light of your eyes
Don't think outside of the lines
Or you may find...
You Run... (CHORUS)
EDGE OF DEFEAT
Beside the walls
In urban halls
I was around
He pulled the gun
She tried to run
I was around
A quick step, skipped beat
The secrets you can't keep
A cold sweat on a dead street
She was on the edge of defeat
The air was swept
Her breathe had left
I was around
Into the night
He took his flight
I was around
A quick step, skipped beat
The secrets you can't keep
A cold sweat on a dead street
She was on the edge of defeat
THE THRILL
Eyes meet
Through the crowd
Lust hits deep when you're on the prowl
It's the wild side
Of the world we cannot divide
Toss words
to wave the bait
Sly little lines make the escape
When tongues are tied
The touch will not subside
She said
You tie me up
Oh Darlin', you thrill me
Tie me up
Oh Darlin', you thrill my heart
Pressed hard
Against the wall
Legs entwined to break the fall
Behind the door
she will call for more
Beneath the sheets
You start to climb
Slip into the sweet divine
The core of a world
you've never seen before
She said
You tie me up
Oh Darlin', you thrill me
Tie me up
Oh Darlin', you thrill my heart
I know you're messing around
I know...
Eyes meet
Through the crowd
Lust hits deep when you're on the prowl
It's the wild side
Of the world we cannot divide
She said you tie me up
Oh Darlin. you thrill my heart....
I WANNA HAVE YOU
I cannot sleep
I made a promise I cannot keep
But in your gaze
Is something that makes me want to misbehave
I know you can't make a move
But is it love you want to lose
We're running out of time
Oooooh I wanna have you
We're shaken up
Cut in half, our eyes are shut
I cannot hide
This love to which we're tied
I know you can't make a move
But is it love you want to lose
We're running out of time
Oooooh I wanna have you
Sometimes you must decide
Burn down the bridge and go for the thrilling ride
Sometimes love won't wait
Our love blooms as two hearts break
Oooooh I wanna have you
FALL FOR YOU
I wasn't looking for love
Burned the women that had tied me up
Running free from the noose
Fell into something I couldn't lose
Do you see I fall for you
Do you see you are the one I choose
I was reckless with truth
Spun the words to kill the clues
You have seen through my disguise
Now I long to look within your eyes
Do you see I fall for you
Do you see you are the one I choose
The one I choose
I'm comin' after you
CHORUS
I fall for you (repeat)
When I'm with you, I'll never lose
THE LONER
You can call me a loner if you like
Don't call me a killer, I ain't the kind
I've called for an ocean in my time
Came back with no water but peace of mind
I'll go where the wind blows
You can see it in my eyes
I know what I'm after
Don't believe it is a crime
I'll go where the wind blows
You can see it in my eyes
Walk with the lonesome
Until the day I die
You can call me a loser if you like
You can tell all your friends I've been out of sight
I've searched for devotion in my time
All I've seen is that love is blind
I'll go where the wind blows
You can see it in my eyes
I know what I'm after
Don't believe it is a crime
I'll go where the wind blows
You can see it in my eyes
Walk with the lonesome
Until the day I die
You can spend your life reaching for the crown
You can scrape the sky until you realize you can't come down
You can spend your whole damn life reaching for the crown
But how're you gonna pay for your stolen holiday
CHORUS
SAME OLD GROUND
Hey little sister, don't be afraid
Even though thats what the newspapers seem to say
with desperation.
Hey little sister, I know it's tough
Money ain't being shared but God knows there's enough
to arm a nation.
We all come back again
To the same old ground
The one where we began
Hey little sister, it's the same old song
We all think we're right, well, who the hell is wrong?
and so we fall apart
Hey little sister, don't lose your smile
Even though it seems love has gone out of style
I hear your beating heart
We all come back again
To the same old ground
The one where we began
We fall apart (repeat)
But I hear your heart
CHORUS
NOBODY KNOWS
You can kill, steal, sleep with my wife
Give your money to God
Forget all your crimes
The 'truth', (truth, truth) is gonna save you now
You can climb up the ladder
kick the people below
As long as you have the stature to show
Your name, (name, name) is gonna make you now
Nobody knows (repeat)
Nobody knows why
You can deal with the devil just look at the Earth
Its like the good book said
You only get what you're worth
Time, (time, time) is gonna save us now
"Ah don't worry, it's not your problem,
you've got someone to blame"
The finger you point, it holds no shame
Escape, (escape) is gonna save us now
Nobody knows (repeat)
Nobody knows why
(Is truth gonna save you now?
Who's gonna save you now?)
DID YOU SAY
Sharp face
Piercing through the crowd
Soft voice
Never seemed to proud
Bright lights come to shine for you
Bright lights shine another view
I see you're coming through
Your eyes somewhere in a dream
Your mind somewhere in between
I know the world is gonna shape you now
Did you say
You had enough, you had enough
Did you say
You had enough
Spit back
In the eyes of fools
Shot down
Want to break the rules
Bright lights come to steal your view
Bright lights shine on all but you
I know you're falling through
Your eyes somewhere in a dream
Your mind somewhere in between
I know the world is gonna shape you now
Did you say
You had enough, you had enough
Did you say
You had enough
We all know you've had a hard...
you've had a hard time.
CHORUS
STEAL US AWAY
Love
was undefined
Caught
within the crimes of insolence
It seems
We never know
The moment
we think we have the truth another shows
Just hold me down against your weight
Crowded thoughts, now escape
Hold me down against your weight
Spill the noise we create
Time, time might let you stay
But time, time can steal us away
We fight
The frantic eyes
Caught
Within the demise we can't let in
It's all
It's all we seem to say
Before we are gone
Let's call it back right now and start again
Just hold me down against your weight
Crowded thoughts, now escape
Hold me down against your weight
Spill the noise we create
Time, time might let you stay
But time, time can steal us away
I need to feel your love before you let me go
I'll stop your lips before you can say no
I need to feel your heart beat next to mine
Just one more time
Just hold me down against your weight
Crowded thoughts, now escape
Hold me down against your weight
Spill the noise we create
Time, time might let you stay
But time, time can steal us away
DYING AGE
Did you make a move that you never made
Turn your heart and turn the page
'Cause in your eyes there's a dying age
A chance to live out the dreams you crave
In the end all that's left of us
Are memories of a life that was
Could you say
I don't regret
This life I've lead
and slip away
When you lay on your last goodbye
The world you're leaving will flood your mind
Did you take the reigns or fall to fate
Did you break the mold or weigh the stakes
In the end all that's left of us
Are memories of a life that was
Could you say
I don't regret
This life I've lead
and slip away
So do you live or merely cope
Set your sights or merely hope
On the fence of your desires
So do you live or merely cope
Set your sights or merely hope
On the thread of your desires
your desires...
Could you say
I don't regret
This life I've lead
and slip away (repeat)
LYRICS - "Tales of Uncertainty"
TELEPHONE, ARE YOU ALIVE
There's a race to run in the electric age,
Communication
Caught in the waves,
Transmit the haze.
We know,
Something's coming,
We don't know what.
Bleed through the wires,
Hide in the cut.
We perpetuate
A tragic fate.
I telephone,
Are You Alive.
So let me know now.
I telephone,
Are You Alive.
History reveals the trends,
Wars still waged,
Now, behind the lense.
We perpetuate
revolving days.
We know,
Somethings coming,
We don't know when.
Reach for the change,
But, where to begin.
We perpetuate,
A blinding fate.
CHORUS
I've got the message
You have your reasons
We can't explain
What's going on here.
Are you alive? (repeats)
CHORUS
THE ANSWERS
Danger there to take
Danger there to taste
Though your eyes are blurred
You connect the shapes
Do you make your move
Do you take that step
Now the voice rings out
Looking to collect
Are you moving high
Are you stepping out
Just around the block
Now you feel the clouds
Sometimes the answers
Only come when I don't expect
Sometimes the answers
Only come when I don't suspect
I'm only waiting for this.
Time is on your side
Time is there to mold
Situation's yours
When you find control
Hands all grab at you
Trying to steal your place
When the life is sweat
Everybody wants a taste
CHORUS
Are you moving high
Are you checking out
Just around the block
Now you feel your clouds
CHORUS
When I don't suspect (repeats)
STRANGER
You say you've lost your mind
The look in your eye says your not lying
Your face reads like the streets
The same one's you have roamed for weeks.
But now you seem so tired
Endless nights spent high and wired
Can't you give it up
Recreation's called your bluff.
Caught in the line
You're a stranger
Caught in the line
You're a stranger
Caught in the line
Inside a nightmare dream
Half in hell, half serene
It comes as no surprise
Tails of manic, reckless rides.
But how can one sustain
Lead a life so far from sane
Only time can say
How long you can fool this game.
CHORUS
Some like us
We don't fit in
Oh well, Oh well... (repeats)
THREE WORDS
So call me guilty
when you say I love a little danger,
When you say sex is on my mind
I see it in your eyes.
So call me guilty
When you say I crave imperfection,
I like to walk a crooked line
What can I say.
What can I say when you have me under your gun
You're firing words that are made to stun.
Now you're breaking my heart
Three words and you're gone
You think it makes you strong
I think you're fooling yourself
So call me guilty
When you say I love a little drama.
When you say sex is on my mind
I see it in your eyes, in your eyes, yeah, in your eyes,
So don't act so surprised
Nobody wants to feel like they're on trial.
CHORUS
Now I'm fooling myself
I could be fooling myself
I think you're fooling yourself (repeats)

THE FACE
When the light
grabs you
holds you
beside yourself
And you can't explain
the feeling
under the spell
Do your premonitions tell?
You can't mistake something is here
The face comes out again
You cannot shake something is here
The face comes out again
When the days
stand still
you can't kill
your precious time
And the words linger
Sing the silent lines
Do your premonitions tell?
CHORUS
BRIDGE
CHORUS
THROUGH THESE DOORS
We step in through these doors
Pass the idle time
Drift along these lights
Into vacant eyes
Do you feel it
Come on and feel it.
Now the words ring out
To the afterlife
Where the bodies move
Right into the night
Do you feel it, come on and feel it.
Come for us,
Through the dark,
Outside the box.
No-one minds,
What you are,
We're all some kind.
FIRST VERSE (repeats)
Step into the sea
Where we crash like waves
Each appears as one
But unifies the same.
Do you feel it, come on and feel it.
CHORUS

CHORUS
We step in though these doors
Pass the idle time.
THE DEVIL THINKS (HE'S FOOLED ME)
A lemon sun
a wave breaking overhead
a red cloak covers the clock on the wall
you can't stall
you can't stall when it's never too late
Time is moving forward,
tastes are like trends
fickle formulas
the answers are getting tired
lets lose the questions
It's getting late and I
I might be out of my mind
The devil thinks he's fooled me
But I'll steal back my time
Abyss of dreams
I'll take a dive inside of you
arrive beyond the noose he holds for me
the fire he speaks will never
will never reach
and time is moving out of line
with the hands of the clock
no longer defined by the tick tock tick tock
stop
It's getting late and I
I might be out of my mind
The devil thinks he's fooled me
But I'll steal back my time
We fall asleep
With time to keep
OUT TONIGHT
Wake your heart
it's sleeping
the beat of love is playing
out tonight
'cause out tonight we find
Speak the words of blindness
shake the fears their climbing
out tonight
'cause out tonight we find
Could you show me what's behind
the sound of shallow lines
Don't hide away
don't hide away
I'm calling
I'm calling out tonight...
Wake your heart
it's sleeping
the beat of love is playing
out tonight
'cause out tonight we find
Step in to the rhythms
The roles we play,
we throw them
out tonight
'cause out tonight we find
Could you show me what's behind
the sound of shallow lines
Don't hide away
don't hide away
I'm calling
I'm calling out tonight...
Hearts beat out
Let them take you (repeat)
Hearts beat out
Let them take you away
