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)

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

CHORUS

When I don't suspect (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
(bridge)
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

CHORUS
