1. Only Your Last Time
MISUNDERSTAND ME
I THOUGHT YOU HAD ME
DEEP WITHIN THE POCKET TO YOUR SIDE
DON'T TRY TO PLAY ME
YOU PLANT THE BAD SEED
DIG ME A HOLE DEEP DOWN
AND THERE'S NO WAY OUT
YOU VISUALIZE ME
DEPRECIATE ME
TELL ME LIES SO I KEEP COMIN'
BACK FOR MORE
YOU NEED THE CRAVING
AND WATCH IT SHAPE ME
NOW WATCH ME WALK OUTSIDE THE DOOR
GOODBYE, IT'S ONLY YOUR LAST TIME
GOODBYE, IT'S ONLY YOUR LAST TIME
2. Empty Room
WHY…DO YOU STAND SO TALL AND
WHY…IS YOUR WORLD AN EMPTY ROOM
WE…UNDERESTIMATE YOU
WE…CAN'T CONSUME YOU FROZEN
MINE…GIVE AND TAKE THE TRUTH AND
HIDE…CORNERED UP IN AN…
EMPTY ROOM
GHOST OF A TOWN
WHERE DO YOU GO
WITH NO ONE AROUND?
INTO THE STARS
UNDER YOUR BED
LOOKING FOR WORDS
THAT NOBODY SAID
EMPTY ROOM
3. This Stone
I'VE GOT A TOUCH OF MAGIC
IT KEEPS ME IN CONTROL
OF WHERE I'M GOIN'
I LOST A OBIT OF PATIENCE
IT DIDN'T TAKE ME LONG
MY TEMPER'S GROWIN'
SO I DINE IN MY OWN PARADISE
WHERE THE WEATHER IS ALWAYS SO NICE
I FEEL AT PEACE IN MY HOME
BURIED BENEATH THIS STONE
GOT A LITTLE NERVOUS
A STEP WAS MUCH TOO FAR
FROM WHERE I'M STANDIN'
I LOST A BIT OF REASON
I COULDN'T REMEMBER WHY
WHY I WAS JUMPIN'
SO I FALL FROM THIS PLACE IN THE SKY
FEELIN' AS IF I COULD FLY
IT FEELS SO GOOD TO BE STONED
SETTING A FIRE TO MY HOME
GOT A LITTLE CRAZY
NO TIME FOR LOOKIN' BACK
I KNOW WHERE I'M GOIN'
I LOST A BIT OF MEANING
THE SONG REMAINS THE SAME
BUT THE WORDS AREN'T FLOWIN'
SO I FALL FROM MY OWN PARADISE
THE WEATHER JUST WASN'T SO NICE
IT FELT SO GOOD TO BE STONED
BURIED BENEATH MY HOME
4. The City Groove
I'M FEELING SOMETHING
ON THIS HORIZON
COMING HOME
AFRAID OF LEAVING
THIS TRUTH TO BEING
SO ALONE
I'M LIVING A LIFE
FULL OF COMPLICATIONS
ONLY TO COME BACK AND PROVE
SOPHISTICATION
RELEASE MYSELF
INTO IMAGINATION
COMING HOME
WOULD IT HURT TO TURN AWAY?
NOTHING STAYS THE SAME
I NO LONGER FEAR THE CHANGE
IT'S TIME FOR ME TO GO
I'M LEANING TOWARD
A NEW BEGINNING ON MY OWN
YET STILL I'M DREAMING OF THOUGHTS
DECEIVING TO MY HOME
I'M TWISTING MYSELF INTO
A NEW DIRECTION
ASKING MYSELF
JUST ONE TOO MANY QUESTIONS
LOSING MYSELF WITHIN IMAGINATION
WHERE'S MY HOME?
WOULD IT HURT TO TURN AWAY?
NOTHING STAYS THE SAME
I NO LONGER FEAR THE CHANGE
IT'S TIME FOR ME TO GO
I CAN DEAL WITH CHANGE
I NO LONGER FEAR THE STRAIN
WHERE I CAN HAVE THE SAME
IT'S TIME FOR ME TO GO
5. Under Cloud Nine
THE RAIN TASTES LIKE TEARS
ADDING SALT TO THE SEA
OF MY LIFE
I'LL JUST SIT BACK IN MY CHAIR
SOAKING RAYS OF THE DESPAIR
IN YOUR LIFE
WHY'S IT GOTTA BE SUCH A THORN IN THE SIDE
FOR US
I WANNA SET YOU FREE
THERE'S A CLOUD OVER ME
I MUST
SLIPPING DOWN A ROAD
DOWN INTO ANOTHER HOLE
IS SO NICE
BREAK THE HIGHER GROUND
FEEL THE WORLD CRUMBLING DOWN
BUT YOU'RE RIGHT
WHO DO YOU GOTTA BE TO OPEN UP THE DOOR
FOR US
I WANNA SET YOU FREE
THERE'S A CLOUD OVER ME
I MUST
I WANT TO SHOW YOU WHAT'S INSIDE MY HEAD
I NEED TO TELL YOU WHY I BROKE THE THREAD
SUSPENDED IN THE AIR
FLYING HIGHER THAN A CARE IN YOUR MIND
TRIPPIN' ON A STONE
I'M FALLING DOWN
A BROKEN BONE AT YOUR SIDE
BUT IT'S ALL RIGHT
I WANT TO SHOW YOU WHAT'S INSIDE MY HEAD
I NEED TO TELL YOU WHY I BROKE THE THREAD
I WANT
I'M WAITING
I'M LOST
DON'T SAVE ME
I WANT
I'M NEEDING
YOU MUST
FORGIVE ME
YOU MUST
6. Fever
LOVER, WHERE HAVE YOU GONE
I'LL BLEED MY EYES OUT
'TIL THE WATER FORGETS TO RUN
JOKER, SING ME YOUR SONG
SHOW ME THE WEATHER
NOW THE STORY IS SAID AND DONE
I'M ALL RIGHT
I'M JUST WAITING FOR YOU ON THE EDGE OF THE WORLD
I DON'T CARE
IF IT TAKES ME A MILLION YEARS
WHISPER, SILENCE THE DAWN
I FEEL YOUR FOOTSTEPS
NOW THE PARTY HAS JUST BEGUN
I WONDER, WHERE HAVE YOU GONE
I'LL WEED THE NIGHT OUT
'TIL THE FEVER IS DEAD AND GONE
7. Believe
I WANT TO BELIEVE THERE'S NOTHING WRONG
CAN IT BE THAT FEELING HAS COME AND GONE
REMEMBER THE DAY IT TOUCHED OUR LIVES
AND TOOK US BY THE HAND
NOW HERE I SIT BENEATH A LIGHT
THAT SLOWLY IS GROWING DIM
I WANT TO BELIEVE IN SOMETHING STRONG
SO WHY DOES IT SEEM I'M SOMEWHERE
THAT I DON'T BELONG
REMEMBER THE DAY YOU TOUCHED MY HEART
AND TURNED MY WORLD TO GOLD
NOW HERE I SIT BETWEEN WHAT'S RIGHT
AND I HAVE NO PLACE TO GO
I'M MOVING ON
I'M DRIFTING FAR
I'M LOSING TOUCH
WITH WHO YOU ARE
8. Rain Song
SITTIN' ALL ALONE
BESIDE THE WINDOW SILL
IT'S 3 O'CLOCK AND ALL IS WELL
I SEE A FACE BURIED
DEEP WITHIN THE CLOUDS
AND IT'S SMILIN' DOWN ON ME
HE SAYS IT'S GONNA RAIN SOMETIME
AND IT WILL ALL COME DOWN
AND IT WILL ALL COME DOWN ON ME
ISN'T THERE SOME HOPE
AM I JUST PARALYZED
STANDING STILL
I CANNOT COMPREHEND WHY RAIN MUST FALL
AND IT ALL COMES DOWN
AND IT ALL COMES DOWN ON ME
LOOKING UP I REACH
TRYING TO FIND MY WAY OUT
WHAT'S THE USE?
I GUESS THAT I'LL JUST DANCE IN THE RAIN
WHATCH YA GONNA DO
WHATCH YA GONNA BE
WHO YA GONNA SEE WHEN THE RAIN FALLS
HOW YA GONNA LIVE
HOW YA GONNA BREATHE
HOW YA GONNA BE WHEN THE RAIN FALLS
DOWN
9. Slow
I'M NOT HERE TO DESTROY YOU
I'M NOT HERE TO MAKE AMENDS
I'M JUST DIGGING THROUGH THE FIELDS OF BROKEN GLASS
SEARCHING FOR I DON'T KNOW
WE TRY TO MAKE IT BETTER
WE TRY TO TAKE IT SLOW
IT DOESN'T SEEM TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE
EITHER WAY THAT WE GO
AND SO IT GOES
I'M NOT HERE TO BRING YOU DOWN
I'M NOT HERE TO MAKE YOU BEND
I'M JUST SWIMMING IN A SEA OF BROKEN HEARTS
SEARCHING FOR SOME TIME GROW
10. Little Man
LITTLE MAN FROM A SMALLER TOWN
SAYS HE WANTS TO BLOW THE WORLD AWAY
YOU DON'T CARE
YOU DON'T SEE
THERE'S ALWAYS GOT TO BE A BETTER WAY
ALL I CAN BE
IS A FACE IN THE CROWD
UNDER YOUR SKY
IT'S JUST A DAY IN THE LIFE
THE GIVEN LIGHT IS SUCH A HEAVY WEIGHT
FEELS LIKE IT'S PULLING ME DOWN
DO YOU CARE
AND DO YOU SEE
TELL ME, IS THE SKY FALLING?
(FALLING DOWN)
11. Don't Hold Me Down
