THE BRONX LYRICS - Ship High In Transit

THE BRONX LYRICS



"Ship High In Transit"






I believe I'm only human

I will rip and I will ruin

I believe nothing can stop me

No way - no God, no army



I believe my premonition

No desire, no position

No time left for wishful thinking

Cause we're not strong, the clock keeps ticking



I'll try not to look over my shoulder

Cause even the sun gets boring, we need the children's stories

Everybody wake up, don't say it's over



Be free, be blessed

Get more, give less



I believe I am a target

I believe I'm a target market

I believe the bottle's thinking

I'll never make it



But at least I tried



Cause in the end there's nothing

Don't hold your breath cause no one's coming

CARRY THE TORCH LYRICS - Searching For Alaska

CARRY THE TORCH LYRICS



"Searching For Alaska"






Please tell me how this is going to end

Because I can't see anything further than today

I thought I'd be dead by now

So let me sing you a song,

so we can both agree that I'm out of my mind



There's a million things running through my head,

but none of them are ever relevant.

It's true but it never stops

My entire life has been another time,

another place and another version of me.

I can't keep up. This world was not meant for me.



So I'll place my faith in what is real.

I'll never buy into the dream of self delusion.

The dream that keeps us all complacent

I'll never buy

into

the

dream



This is the art of the impossible,

the only thing I've ever known

Broken glass and empty promises

It's all I know, it's all I am



Watch it all fade



Be grateful you're not me.

Because everything I touch turns to stone

A CHANGE OF PACE LYRICS - I Wanna Be Your Rock & Roll

A CHANGE OF PACE LYRICS



"I Wanna Be Your Rock & Roll"






Now everybody put on your dance shoes

It's time we all got footloose

Just follow me

I'm making time to cut up the floor

It's in your eyes and I want so much more

That you're not giving



You're shaking this poor boy's world

Just put him out of his misery



Take me for a ride through devious eyes

And when I wake up tomorrow

These bed sheets tell lies no words can disguise

And I don't wanna wake up at all

Wake Up!



We're all sweating to the oldies now

The King's back for a night on the town

One thing on mind

Oh no I fell into your trance again

Your eyes are digging through my skin

And I want more



You're breaking this poor boy's mind

Just put him out of his misery



Take me for a ride through devious eyes

And when I wake up tomorrow

These bed sheets tell lies no words can disguise

And I don't wanna wake up at all



I wanna be your rock and roll for old time's sake

I know I said I hate those lies

But they're what keeps me coming back



I wanna be your rock and roll for old time's sake

I know I said I hate those lies

But they're what keeps me coming back

I wanna be your rock and roll for old time's sake

I know I said I hate those lies

But they're what keeps me coming back



Take me for a ride through devious eyes

And when I wake up tomorrow

Take me for a ride through devious eyes

And when I wake up tomorrow

These bed sheets tell lies no words can disguise

And I don't wanna wake up at all

Wake Up!

CITIZEN FISH LYRICS - Wet Cement

CITIZEN FISH LYRICS



"Wet Cement"






We went up to the building site

Saw the bricks and the concrete piles

And watched them all working

Building muscles and no-one smiled

We stood around and watched them

Staring back in complete contempt

I'm building a building

Signed his name in the wet cement



We walked through the cemetery

Social tombstones in black and grey

Someone had a bunch of flowers

Talking sentiments felt O. K.

We stood in the shadows

Feeling it was that time of day

When everything gloomy

Hits the light as it fades away



We came to conclusions

Knew that life was a paradox

So many illusions

Kept alive till the old ones dropped

Demolishing lifestyles

Building up all the tower blocks

If life is so sacred

Why spend it all in a man-made box?



We stared at the empty shells

Passed a smile and then cried a lot

While all this was passing by

No one stopped to see what they've got

They took it for granted

Used the space for a parking lot

We'll kick off the real world

Allocating the beauty spots

Industrial death camps

Man made something and then forgot

Knew what it should look like

Trod on nature and said "Well, why not?"



But you cannot replace it

Just take a photo and watch it rot

And bury the feeling

Till no-one knows what it really meant

Got caught in a landslide

And left a name in the wet cement

ROSEWAY LYRICS



"Living In A Shadow Of A Doubt"






Back up your faith.



Back up your faith!



What are you so ashamed of?

What are you so ashamed of?

What are you so ashamed of?

I will be ashamed of you.



What are you?

FOOLPROOF LYRICS - After Dinner Mint

FOOLPROOF LYRICS



"After Dinner Mint"






You spill, you spilled your drink inside of me and

And I think I like it better being warm



You spill, you spilled your drink inside of me and

And I think I like it better being warm

Like a bullet, come on and dance in me



And tell me what you see inside

What's on the menu now?



Take my hand

And tell me what your waiting for

Tell me why you're waiting

So I know

And take my hand

And scream to me your symphony

So I know why you're waiting



And you rest to test the weight on top of me and

And I think just for you that I can bear it

Like a bullet, come on and dance in me

And still you see me bleed inside

I think I'm gonna take this down



Take my hand

And tell me what your waiting for

Tell me why you're waiting

So I know

And take my hand

And scream to me your symphony

So I know why you're waiting



One more shot and I'll be dead

Connect the dots inside my head

I said I'll try and get this done

One more grasp is all thats left

Scream at me until I'm deaf

I said I'll try and get this done



Take my hand and tell me what your waiting for

Tell me why your waiting

So i know

And take my hand

And scream to me your symphony

So I know why you're waiting, waiting



Take my hand

Tell me why your waiting

Tell me why your waiting



Take my hand

And scream to me your symphony

So I know why you're waiting



You spill, you spilled your drink inside of me and

And I think that just for you that I can bear it

Like a bullet you came and ripped through me

THE ARRIVALS LYRICS - White Hero Type

THE ARRIVALS LYRICS



"White Hero Type"






Who are you to break when you've been the rock

It's a shock, alright

It seems to me you backed down

You backed down

You backed down

And you folded



You called yourself the big white hero type

With a gripe

Oh right

It seems to me you backed down

You backed down

You backed down

And you folded



We've got a way of weeding you out

We've got a way of bringing you down, way down

Where they'll never hear a sound

The egg on your face will crack through your hide

And you'll know

We're right
