B i o g r a p h y Moving from a supporting keyboard role with Björk and Galliano to put out her own record on Aphex Twin's Rephlex Records, Leila is the rare female electronica songwriter that doesn't sing, choosing instead for her album Like Weather to use vocals from friends and even her own sister. Born in Iran, she spent part of her childhood there but was forced to flee to London with her family. She became interested in DJing as well as keyboards, and left college to play with Björk on her first album, 1994's Debut. Leila graduated to sound engineer for the second Björk LP, and began setting up her own home studio. Signed to Rephlex Records for a solo album, she released the single "Don't Fall Asleep" in 1997 and Like Weather the following year. Love Story appeared in 1999. |

Something
Break me off a little piece of something
I want to lose my mind
But won't you please be careful
There's things I don't wanna find
Let me dwell
In my darkest place
With your help
There's things i might erase
Break me off a little piece of something
There's things i wanna find
With some help
I won't get left behind

Blue Grace
Roya Arab :
Why don’t you explain
What is going through your head
From afar am I to hear your words unsaid
From afar do you fear some truth to bear
Run away, run away
Clear a space and there you’ll stay
Run away, run away
Clear a space and there you’ll stay
Where’s your spine
Where’s your charm
Where’s your grace
From what do you escape
Do you escape
Run away, run away
Clear a space and there you’ll stay
Where's your spine
Where's your charm
Where's your grace
Where's your spine
Where's your charm
Where's your grace
Misunderstood
My oh my, you have misunderstood
The game is done and really should
Today is the day that
I'm gonna give it all up to you
Sadly, softly, it's time for the truth
No steppin' softly, i put on my boots
Today is the day that
I'm gonna give it all up to you
Not wanting to upset you
Staring at the pain in my eyes
Acting a blank you don't have a clue
Feeding me with all those lies
It's my turn
I could not take it
Go two for two
I'm standing back now watching you
Creating a new me that no longer circulates around you
I take the reins of my life, i do
Shake out the old and bring in the new
I found a love so embracing
No need to do any chasing
I found the strength within me
Enough to say goodbye
Healing myself with the energy
Filled with self-love i could fly
You found and lost
The perfect mate
Don't cry my mate
For it's too late
You misunderstood
I don't want you around
You misunderstood
Time to stop playing around
*** Thanx a lot to Mike
for this one ***
Won't you be my baby,baby
Got no time to be sad and lonely
I thought i was the one and only
Man who can come and steal your heart away
I got mine there's no need to fake it
You got yours watch me come and take it
But you won't even let me steal a kiss away, yeah
Want you to be my baby, baby
Want you to be my baby, baby
Want you to be my baby, baby
Oh won't you be my baby
Had you in my eyes for quiet some time, now
I'm gonna get you, but i haven't worked out how
'Cause you won't join in the little games i play, yeah
Ain't no girl who can escape me
You're trying ways you know they just don't phase me
But soon you'll be begging, ooh won't you let me play, yeah
Let me tell you that i
I don't mind
Having to wait
For a length of time
But before, before too long
I will stand girl
'Cause you'll be mine
Want you to be my baby, baby
Want you to be my baby, baby
Want you to be my baby, baby
Oh won't you be my baby
Oh be my
*** Thanx a lot to Mike for this one ***

Oh I wish that I was brave
Could just turn and walk away
But this modern life is so easy and so safe
The days seem very long
Don't know how I keep it going on
Oh I wish I had the strenght to be strong
My girlfriend says I'm a waste
Says I don't know what to say
When I'm faced to solve the problems that are fate
You don't know what it is like
All the voices they don't write
They'll be gone before you see the morning light
Oh it feels so very long
And the voices they go on
And you don't know what to think that is you're wrong
You're wrong
Somehow I've been wanting more and more
Oh I wish that I was brave
Could just turn and walk away
But this modern life is so easy and so safe
Though I always wanted to travel
There's so many scenes to unravel
But I haven't got the will to walk away
I tried to expand my mind
The same boring things that I find
Are there when I try to open up my eyes
Oh I
I wish that I was brave
Oooh...
*** Thanx a lot to Alfred for this one ***
Getting tired of this way
Got plenty work to do
Release this ball and chain
Got a picture in my mind
Of how I want to be
With the passing of time
For five days it's a strain
Monday to friday even in the rain
Robotic is how I feel
I long to break away long to be free
If I could do it my way
No more would I be blue
I'd do what I choose
If I could live my reality
No typing of letters making cups of tea
i'll leave it all behind
Getting tired of this way
Got plenty work to do
Release this ball and chain
Got a picture in my mind
Of how I want to be
With the passing of time
My ideal would be creative as can
be
To sing yeah that is me
Just as I dreamed as a little girl
In my own big world
Where do I start, listen to my heart
*** Thanx a lot to Alfred for this one ***
Holy moly reeling
Gently through the fields
Got my shopping list
My mummy knows the deal
Here I go ducking diving
heading in to town
No sign of Dobie Gray
I got my own in-crowd
Don't know think so can't go
But I don't mean to be bad
Wasn't what I had seen
Can't think need drink won't sink
Ribena's on my mind
But it wasn't to be
Hey ho got no goal didn't wanna
sell my soul
Didn't mean to go for green just sodastream
Oh no where my Lord don't wanna sell my soul
I didn't mean to go for green just sodastream
Something's taking over
Fed up with groceries
I got my water pistol
I'm gonna make me some g's
Time's up hands up I hold the bank
up
i want all some money
It's the way it should be
Nobody wanna movie don't dare
i'm coming
Oh it's too good to see
Hey ho got no goal didn't wanna
sell my soul
Didn't mean to go for green just sodastream
Oh no where my Lord don't wanna sell my soul
I didn't mean to go for green just sodastream
Oh no my water pistol's leaking
all over the floor
i thought I heard a gunshot I can't feel my left arm anymore
Somebody's waving it at me from across the hall
I think I want my mummy I can't feel nothing anymore
I want my mummy
*** Thanx a lot to Alfred for this one ***
She said that she loved me
But did she really love me
Said that she only
Would be the one to hold me
I've waited so long
For that love hard to find
And now that she's gone
I'm going out of my mind
Have you seen my baby
Oh won't you please tell me where
If you see her
Would you let her know
That I love her
And I miss her so
To win back her love
Most anything I would do
I will bang my head against a brick wall
Take a boat ride over Niagara falls
Share my bath with a crocodile
Swim with his friends up the River Nile
Most anything I would do to win her love
To win her love
She said that she loved me
But now she is gone
I thought it was always
Oh how I was wrong
If words aren't enough
To re-open her heart
then action I'll bring
Tell me where to start
Tell me where to start
Tell me where to start
I will fly to the sun on Icarus' wings
Walk barefoot over nettles that sting
Stone by stone rebuild the Berlin wall
Climb a skyscraper then watch myself fall
Most anything I would do
Most anything I would do
Most anything I would do
To win her love
To win her love
So if you see her then tell her
All the things I have said
Don't let her beauty go to your head
She'll hypnotise you and then you will understand
Why I want so much to be her man
Yeah if you see her tell her
Won't you tell her
I want her love
I love her
*** Thanx a lot to Alfred for this one ***
Will she be the same
If I come around again
Maybe things will change
i'll never see this face again
Oh I didn't mean to tell the
wicked lie
Oh I didn't mean to say goodbye
I ... I should turn and go back
Explain to her what she means to me and try to face the facts
We had made a pact
We'd talk through any problems and that would just be that
Oh I didn't mean to tell the wicked lie
Oh I should never have said goodbye
Well we met a long time ago
When she was young and I felt old
I will never forget
How we made love on the first night
because it felt right
Oh it felt right
We spent years in each other's arms
Safe from any harm
Thinking this would never end
And we shared all the secrets
We had ever kept
She was my lover and my friend
*** Thanx a lot to Alfred for this one ***
A sweet kiss is what he gave to me
Tasted good to me, sweet like honey
Left me longing for something else to be
I made no secret of my feelings
At times he made me feel so shy
Piercing looks deep into my eyes
His slightest touch made me quake
the bass in his voice rattled my cage
I waited a long time to touch his
skin
Soft to the bone as I imagined
I visioned him so in my mind
So when reality striked it took me to my highest high
Oh we just vibed off each other
Just like we knew we belonged together
Wanting to go all the way
More haste I said we got all day
You see the memory will always be
with me
I won't forget
*** Thanx a lot to Alfred for this one ***
Had we met at a different time
We'd be perfect for each other
Now we're wasting all our time
In the world apart together
Tick tock heart's clock
Measuring emotions
Tick tock heart's clock
Mesure emotion
Each journey of love
Long enough for me to caress
Your head and make you feel alright
Time to heal / teach
Bond unforged
By the charm of the new
I'm not perfect but i'm perfect
for you
I'm not perfect but i'm perfect for you
You never needed to try
I knew all about you been told
So I kept some secret place to myself
To come and to be as a part of a thing
Da di ra da di ra
In a box unrapped in a purple ribbon
On a sea so wide and gleaning
Set sail secret sense
Waves carry away, safe place to rest
Why do I feel, maybe you were my dear
Some place else, some time, time.
*** Thanx a lot to Alfred for this one ***

*** Thanx a lot to Stephane for these lyrics ***
Terry Hall :
It's happening slowly, the people below me
Are pulling me under, they don't even know me
Time to blow, Time to blow
Time to blow, Time to blow
They haunt me to slay me
They plan to derail me
They scroll on my poster
Like I'd even notice
Time to blow, Time to blow
Time to blow, Time to blow
Dry it I'll wet it
Throw it I'll fetch it
Tell me your secret
I'll never forget it
Time to blow, time to blow
Time to blow, time to blow
Each time I open my mouth I regret it
Each time I open my mouth I regret it
Rob from always on the run is so bad and copy paste is a
sin
Roya Arab :
Hard rock of old,
Speedy people, tall cities
The ones with the powers
Live in old bits, green bits
Bits by the river, ones highest up
Far from fumes, thousands of cars
Rhythmic motion of light
Methodically in streets of simple lines
One eye behind
Consuming readily, their malady
Lashes on the floor
Daisies, cats, and spacemen on the wall
Rob from always on the run is so bad and copy paste is a
sin
Treading engrossed paving stones below
Filthy footmarks reflecting tear filled skies
But, in a world frozen still, my love
To find you’re with me still this night
Perfect plentiful pastures
Metal monsters’ industries
Cities on stilts, mined hollow underground
Silver pay for healing tide
Tracks carry ashes
Carefully placed water-burial site nearby
Tales of all kind
Solitary confusion as blood runs its course to purify
In a world frozen still my love
To find you’re with me still this night
Treading engrossed paving stones below
Filthy footmarks reflecting tear filled skies

Teases me
Luca Santucci :
What I don't have, I won't need
Enough is enough
Hard to feel that conditions of speed
Modern disease
Even though my head knows this
I'm fighting demons in my sleep
Even though I know I know the time
It teases me to tow the line
Always come back to square one
How much is too much
Lessons over graded and done
Should I stay or run
Look around you are bound
To think it through not much ado
What to do
Even though my head knows this
I'm fighting demons in my sleep
Even though I know the time
It teases me to tow the line
Teases me tow the line
Teases me tow the line
How much is too much
Stay put or run
How much is too much
Stay put or run
Rob from always on the run is so bad and copy paste is a
sin
Martina Topley-Bird :
Come to me saying you've been lonely
Yeah you're listening for the telephone but it ain't ringing, no
Your love is so mature
I won't take it no since you been
Into something you will not turn leader you tell me nothing
You won't lecture me
That's enough reasoning, I can with you so raunchy
I'm for real memories are not burning in
Running into me and saying something
You can't believe they want to take my wings
All of the colours out the corner of my eye it was singing, oh
Breathe on this city machine, they want a rare too blue
That's enough reasoning, I know you
May you be all you can be
And may the child in you want to believe I want you here
I want you in my world
Hey muse I used to be your candy store
Candy store
Empty time they came and cheerlead feel like I'm the only only song and
Rob from always on the run is so bad and copy paste is a
sin
Lay it all on me
I been so wrong
I can't reach you to begin again
I love the way you go to words
The sun that you are
I tried to be here
I understand you like a baby
I'll understand you like a baby
I won't listen like a baby
Don't understand you like a baby
I understand you like a baby
I'll understand you like a baby
I won't listen like a baby
Don't understand
And the rain is coming
Norwegian Wood
( The Beatles cover feat. Luca Santucci )
I once had a girl
Or should I say
She once had me
She showed me her room
Isn't it good
Norwegian wood
She asked me to stay
And she told me to sit anywhere
So I looked around
And I noticed there wasn't a chair
Rob from always on the run is so bad and copy paste is a
sin
I sat on a rug
Biding my time
Drinking her wine
We talked until two
And then she said
"It's time for bed"
She told me she worked in the morning
And started to laugh
I told her I didn't
And crawled off to sleep in the bath
And when I awoke
I was alone
This bird had flown
So I lit a fire
Isn't it good
Norwegian wood
Norwegian wood
Isn't it good
Norwegian wood
Isn't it good
Luca Santucci :
Just the other day I thought of you
Thanks a bunch for the fun
Now we're done
Never see a lot just a few
That's your style little wild
Never mind
I'll take my chance
Lets so again
Worth the grief
Don't mind the rain
U may be strange
There's no platform for your train
Having had the time to think it through
Made me smile been a while
You beguile
We may need some stitching or some glue
Heaven knows how it goes
Stuck to you
Heaven knows how it goes
Heaven knows, knows I am yours
Rob from always on the run is so bad and copy paste is a
sin
Why Should I
Martina Topley-Bird & Terry Hall :
The stars are crashing down
The moon is turning blue
I'm on the edge of town
And I am stuck with you
Why should I worry
Lately I lose and find
Memories still remind
Closer I get to peace
Stronger demons won't release
Why should I worry
The seas a tidal wave
Take me to the scream
I have no soul to save
I have no dream to dream
Why should I worry
Smile by, talk through
Often no reply belief
Smile at passers by
Talk through gritted teeth
Often no reply
Bored beyond belief
The well is almost dry
The clouds have disappeared
No tears are left to dry
No fear is left to fear
Why should I worry
Rob from always on the run is so bad and copy paste is a
sin

*** Thanx a lot to Stephane for these lyrics ***
All of this
It's all leading to this moment
It's all there is
Where all the roads are
Where all the roads are feeding here
And the day we see we see it for the first time
Opening for us we are standing on
We are standing on
All of this we are all of it
All of this
Rob from always on the run is so bad and copy paste is a
sin
Welcome To Ur
Life
In the time that it's taken for a marble
Time it's taken for a marble
To hit the ground from your open hand
Hit the ground from your open hand
One thousand thoughts have crossed your mind
A thousand thoughts have crossed, have crossed your mind your mind
The sound of a marble, hitting the ground
Your course of action
Is only yours
Welcome to your life again
Welcome to your life
Welcome to your life again
" Pour moi le dadaïsme était une étape extrêmement nécessaire "
Seeing without your eyes for the first time
Seeing without your eyes
The sound of a marble, hitting the ground
Ur course of action
Is only yours
Welcome to your life again
Welcome to your life
Seeing without your eyes for the first time
Seeing without your eyes
Welcome to your life
Again
In consideration
Rob from always on the run is so bad and copy paste is a
sin
Toiling you
I take into consideration
All that we are
In consideration of
All that we are
All that we are
Not
(disappointed cloud) Anyway
All I tried, all my efforts they were in vain
With all my might, wouldn't let me love love you anyway
Anyway
Rob from always on the run is so bad and copy paste is a
sin
All that I could give, would never be enough for you
With all my crying, wouldn't let me love you anyway
Love you anyway
Love you anyway
Anyway

Panic only lasted a moment
The panic only lasted but a moment
Panic only lasted for a moment
Then they went about their business
Pardon clarity
Never lasts
My dear please
Pass me my blinds
Panic only lasted a moment
The panic only lasted but a moment
Panic only lasted for a moment
Then they went about their business
And they went on and they went on
And they went on and they went on

I try not to disturb you while you’re sleeping
But there's something that s washed up on the shore
I heard there's a city underneath the sea
And its residents are twice as big as
