Must have forgotten something
How to forget how to be true
Covered myself in numb things
Don't touch me, and I won't touch you

Trying to remember something
Why am I here? And who are you?
You must have meant something
Animals came in two by two

Whatever you want
Whatever you need
Whatever you want
Whatever you need
Think I need it too
I think I need it too
I think I need it too

Just as I thought I'm thinking
How can I change when I don't want to
Kept getting caught kept drinking
How can I blame what I've got to
Putting the wheels in motion
Auto-pilot, I can't drive
Covered in calomine lotion
Scratching my heatlumps bee-stung hives

Whatever you want
Whatever you need
Whatever you want
Whatever you need
Think I need it too
I think I need it too
I think I need it too

Whatever you want
Whatever you need
Whatever you want
Whatever you need

Whatever you want
Whatever you need
Whatever you want
Whatever you need
Think I need it too
I think I need it too
I think I need it too
I think I need it too
I think I need it too

In the tree-lined cities and forgotten fields
Some are born too pretty, some are born too real
Some to death-wish pity, while the selfish steal some ground

It's all just hunchbacked plans to stumped to feel
As the rise of man names his price to deal
It's "look ma, no hands" on the steering wheel, going round
Goes round, goes round, goes round, slows down

Some are early bloom, some are made to wait
Some arrive too soon, some leave too late
Some think the moon can navigate their life round
Life round, life round, life round, lives round

Hey... can't you see?
What will be...
Can't you see?

Hey... can't you see?
What will be...
Can't you see?

It's behind you
It's behind you
It's behind you
It's behind you

Look behind you
Look behind you
Look behind you
Look behind you

Hey... can't you see?
What will be...
Can't you see?

Hey... can't you see?
What will be...
Can't you see?

Hey... can't you see?
What will be...
Can't you see?

Love it, hate it
Want it, had it
Need it, got it
Down-da-down-da-down

Take it, took it
Shake it, shook it
Flaked it, flucked it
Down-da-down-da-down

Do you know who I am?
Do you know what I've got?
Did you know who I am?
'Cause I know what you're not

Read it, wrote it
Heard it, spoked it
Need it, broke it
Down-da-down-da-down-da-down-da-down-da-down-da-down

Do you know who I am?
Do you know what I've got?
Did you know who I am?
'Cause I know what you're not

Love it, hate it
Want it, had it
Need it, got it
Down-da-down-da-down

Do you know who I am?
Do you know what I've got?
Did you know who I am?
'Cause I know what you're not

Do you know who I am?
Do you know what I've got?
Did you know who I am?
'Cause I know what you're not

Do you know who I am?
Do you know what I've got?
Did you know who I am?
'Cause I know what you're not

Do you know who I am?
Do you know what I've got?
Did you know who I am?

I saw him
He saw me
That Turin-stained shroud
In Rimini
He cried
And I cried
We both died
Laughing
Him and me
Why me?
Why Rimini?

I want you
You want me
We both want
The things we'll never be now
We see now
It's sad how
Some things aren't meant to be
For we
Are just you and me
It never happens when you want it to
It never does what it's supposed to do
It's never good enough to see me through
See me through

I love that shroud that you're in
I love that you're maturing
I love that sweet sack you're in
I love your saccharin

I love that shroud that you're in
I love that you from Turin
I love that sweet sack you're in
I love your saccharin

It never happens when you want it to
It never does what it's supposed to do
It's never good enough to see me through
See me through

He saw me
I saw him
We both saw
Beneath each others'
Skin deep-
Er than deep
We both sleep
To dream of what could be
For me
And sing hymns for him and me

It never happens when you want it to
It never does what it's supposed to do
It's never good enough to see me through
See me through

I love that shroud that you're in
I love that you're from Turin
I love that sweet sack you're in
I love your saccharin

I love that shroud that you're in
I love that you're maturing
I love that sweet sack you're in
I love your saccharin

If I changed along the way
Is there a price that I can pay?
Just tell me all I have to say is save me

Just tell me it'll be okay
That tomorrow won't be like today
Don't make me have to kneel and pray
For maybes... just save me

I heard it a thousand times
I heard it a thousand times
I heard it a thousand times
Life of a thousand crimes
Life of a thousand crimes

Don't want to know what I've become
I want the wrongs I've done undone
I need more that just the crumbs you gave me

I want a place where I can run
I want a race that can be won
I want a face and a golden sun to bathe me... bathe me

I heard it a thousand times
I heard it a thousand times
I heard it a thousand times
Life of a thousand crimes
Life of a thousand

Life of a thousand crimes
Life of a thousand crimes
Life of a thousand crimes
Life of a thousand crimes

Do you want to know?
Do you want to know?
Do you want to know?
What I know?

Do you want to go?
Really want to go?
Do you want to go where I go?

If I changed along the way
Is there a price that I can pay?
Just tell me all I have to say is save me

Just tell me it'll be okay
That tomorrow won't be like today
Don't make me have to kneel and pray
For maybes... maybes

I heard it a thousand times
I heard it a thousand times
I heard it a thousand times
Life of a thousand crimes
Life of a thousand crimes
Life of a thousand crimes
Life of a thousand crimes
Life of a thousand crimes
Life of a thousand crimes
Life of a thousand crimes
Life of a thousand crimes

I slept by the mountain
Of rivers we crossed
I dreamt of the fountain
And the coin that we tossed

Now I'm just counting
The dreams that were lost
One coin in a fountain
Was all that it cost
Is that all it cost?

I followed the oceans
I swallowed the seas
I buried emotions
I couldn't set free

I took every potion
From A to me
And that was devotion
Was that really me?
Is that really me?

What a way to waste your wishes
Changing something for somehow
What I'd pay to taste your kisses
oh yeah
Here and now, here and now,
here and now, D'you hear me now

Will there be thunder?
Will lightning strike?
Will I kneel in wonder
In a tunnel of light?

Or will I go under?
And give up the fight
When they call my number
Called in the night
Call in the night

I cried the fountain dry
I climbed the mountains high
Hallelujah... hallelujah...

Hallelujah... hallelujah... hallelujah...
Hallelujah... hallelujah... hallelujah...

I got to you... hallelujah... hallelujah...
I got to you... hallelujah... hallelujah...

. . .


Everlasting neverendless
Moments lost in time
Every last thing they can send us
Will be yours and mine and mine and mine

Don't look down
Don't look down
Don't look down

See this through or we could watch it die
Me and you, saying our last goodbye
Goodbye babe, goodbye baby goodbye

Hear us calling
Ever crying
Wonder when it stops

Don't look down
Don't look down
Don't look down

See this through or we could watch it die
Me and you, saying our last goodbye
Goodbye babe, goodbye baby goodbye
Goodbye babe, goodbye baby goodbye

See this through, see this through
Me and you, me and you
Me and you, see this through
Me and you, me and you

. . .


Show me something that I've not seen before
Show me somewhere that I've not been before
You give me so much I don't want anymore
And until I get my fill
Awake on the sea, asleep on the shore
You're making me just want to keep wanting more
I'm understanding, and I'm standing under awe
Just like many, but nobody
Not like any, everybody

Everybody, look at us now
Everybody, look at us now
Everybody, look at us now
Look at us now
Yeah, look at us now
Yeah, look at us now
Look at us now

I love it when you say you're better than me
Like you know you're not as clever as me
You can't connect intellectually
And until I get my fill
My head is heading for the head surgery
Everything you said, you heard it from me
Your repetition's just repeating on me
Just like many, but nobody
Not like any, everybody

Everybody, look at us now
Everybody, look at us now
Everybody, look at us now
Look at us now
Yeah, look at us now
Yeah, look at us now
Look at us now

Am I the wrong one?
Am I the wrong one?
Am I the wrong one?
Am I the wrong one?

Everybody, look at us now
Everybody, look at us now
Everybody, look at us now
Everybody, look at us now
Everybody, look at us now
Everybody, look at us now
Everybody, look at us now
Everybody, look at us now

If we ride ride ride
Rider come on to the other side
Floating and floating on the night tide
Just beyond where the sun dies

If we fly fly fly
Fly with me now over oceans wide
Higher than heaven, higher than the sky
You, me and God can watch the sun rise
Baby c'mon, baby c'mon

Drivetime
On the drivetime
On the drivetime
Driving by

If we ride ride ride
Where the mist takes us
In a rising tide
Makes us and breaks us there's no-one to guide
Spirits following the blind

If we fly fly fly
Will it take us up too high-high
A prayer and no wings just a why why?
We can't see the skyline for the sky
Baby c'mon, baby c'mon

Drive time
On the drivetime
On the drivetime
Driving by

Drive time
On the drivetime
On the drivetime
Driving by

Oh, o-oh, o-oh, o-oh

Ride ride ride
Ride ride ride
To the sunrise
Baby c'mon, baby c'mon

Drive time
On the drivetime
On the drivetime
Driving by

Drive time
On the drivetime
On the drivetime
Driving by

Oh, o-oh, o-oh, o-oh

If the world was half as mad as me
Like that could ever be
I'd say the world was crazy

If I'm just half the man I was
I'd say that's just because
I must have gotten lazy
Lazy...

In duty and in love
In beauty wearing off
Beware, be wary of
The Idolness of Gods
The Idolness of Gods
The Idolness of Gods

On the ropes against the tide
There's nowhere left to hide
Once you've seen my insides

Broken hope broke open wide
See the knock-out punch your pride
I've got you seats at ringside
Ringside...

In duty and in love
In beauty wearing off
Beware, be wary of
The Idolness of Gods
The Idolness of Gods
The Idolness of Gods

Oh, what now?
Oh, what now?
No, not now

No, not now
No, not now
No, not now

Nights and tears are falling down
Keep splashing to the ground
Eyelashes getting drowned-drowned

Life's frontiers grew walls around
New pastures can't be found
I'm crashing cars in your town
Your town...

In duty and in love
In beauty wearing off
Beware, be wary of
The Idolness of Gods
The Idolness of Gods
The Idolness of Gods
