The brains behind Puracane belong to David Biegel and Ali Rogers. Biegel will be familiar to Ubiquity fans, as he is one half of electronic act Bugs. He's a programmer, bass player, remixer and producer. A member of numerous bands (from dub outfits to hip hop productions), Biegel turned to producing as tendinitis hindered his ability to play bass. Skyjuice is his solo project often featuring talented MCs and vocalists on solo releases. Skyjuice tunes have appeared on 12"s and on No Categories 1 and 2, Audio Alchemy, and What's Cookin' for Ubiquity. Biegel's Skyjuice project has become one of the most in-demand production names in the USA. Over the past year or so he has lent an underground production sound to an eclectic group of musicians including Natalie Imbruglia, Carly Simon, Morley, So So, Rooster and Terra Deva. He has remixed music by Bis , Morley, Blueboy, Hooverphonic, 80 Mile Beach and even Crystal Gayle! A recent move to NYC from San Francisco has put Biegel in touch with many new musical contacts. For Puracane he teamed up with vocalist Ali Rogers (see below); renowned guitar player Knox Chandler -- known for his stints with Souixsie & the Banshees, REM, and the Psychedelic Furs; and Susan Elinger, who provided some intoxicating live piano work (take a listen to "Key Movement"!). Vocalist Ali Rogers' efforts with Barbie Complex bought them major label interest but unfortunately the band spilt under the pressure. Around that time a gentleman with a scrawny Bristol accent called and asked for a demo because he wanted to record with her. The voice on the other end of the phone belonged to Tricky and an off-on relationship continued for a couple of years, Rogers eventually electing not to work for the UK producer. Coming full circle, Rogers happened upon David Biegel's Village Voice advertisment looking for a new vocalist! In Rogers, Biegel had found the rare combination he had been seeking: a talented vocalist who could write great songs and was willing to stretch the boundaries of performance without wanting to sound exactly like another Portishead or Massive Attack. Sure, the band has a girl and is beat-oriented, but one listen and you'll hear the difference. The album begins with the edgy "14 Nights" and the title track, both of which manage to balance leftfield production sensibilty with catchy hooks and great songwriting. Reaching out in many directions, Puracane peer into a more guitar-driven sound on "Not Today" but can also provide a chilling ballad, as displayed on "I Need To Leave." Rogers is a huge Jane's Addiction fan, hence the cover version of "Summertime Roll." Soon after the release of the album, Ali Rogers took Puracane live. The current line-up includes drummer Andrew Griffiths, guitarist Josh Weinberg, and bass player David Leatherwood. The band have just completed 3 shows with Sting and 3 with Duran Duran as part of the Levi's First Stage event. Things You Should Leave Alone continues to recieve fantastic reviews, constantly winning over new fans for the live shows.

Things you should leave alone

*** Thanx a lot to Ali & Griff from the Official Puracane Homepage who corrected our interpretation of these lyrics ***

Things we should leave alone

Cold face
Shouldn't be messing
But he can't fight his ego
Is feeding on the misfortunes
Of the last lamb that's bleating

Sunday
Finding it hard to keep away from them
It's not over yet
All day ready to blow like a bomb
Like a bomb

It was never fine
There was always a problem
It was never fine
There was always a problem

All trying
All lying
Supplying
Things you should leave alone
Not breathing
Still stealing
Lost feeling
We should leave it alone
Alone

His place
Do you think he's forgotten
He left it empty and he'll pay
Now there's a little extra something for taking it

It was never fine
There was always a problem
It was never fine
There was always a problem

All trying
All lying
Supplying
Things you should leave alone
Not breathing
Still stealing
Lost feeling
We should leave it alone
Alone

It was never fine
There was always a problem
It was never fine
There was always a problem

All trying
All lying
Supplying
Things you should leave alone
Not breathing
Still stealing
Lost feeling
We should leave it alone
Alone

Big day

 Big day
It won't be too long
And now I don't feel anything
Are you still there at my side

Big flash
And I hit the ground
And I can't see anyone
Are you still there at my side

He used to hold my head in his arms
Now someone else is keeping us warm
It shouldn't be that long
I don't hate anyone
Anymore

Sinking, falling
Don't let it send you down
Are you wasted, are you dying?
Gods at work
I'm waiting to come around
Waiting naked for a sign

It shouldn't be that long
I don't hate anyone
Anymore

One day
You and I
Reach out too high
Someday
We'll all be there

Big day
It won't be too long
And now I don't need anyone
I'm waiting here for my guide

Big sun to take me away
And now I don't hate anyone
There's someone else at my side

He used to hold my head in his arms
Now someone else is keeping us warm
It shouldn't be that long
I don't hate anyone
Anymore, anymore, anymore, anymore

*** Thanx a lot to Shadowrunner for this one ***

14 nights

 Give me some that's still my half
Oh the struggle makes it worse
What did i get myself into
14 nights and there's a chance
I'll get up and see the harm
It's alright. You haven't changed

All that glowed in your bowl is rotting
I'm caught in the middle of
I shouldn't have let this go on
I'm caught in the middle of
I shouldn't have let this go on

We always fight and I recall
Laying you out on the floor
Oh my Lord. You haven't changed.

Lying blue and lying red
Broken glass in my bed
What did I get us both into

All that glowed in your bowl is rotting
I'm caught in the middle of
I shouldn't have let this go on
I'm caught in the middle of
I shouldn't have let this go on

My room is red and no one knows
Am I the only thing that glows?
I haven't wept, my eyes are closed
I don't know where my sorow goes

All that glowed in your bowl is rotting
I'm caught in the middle of
I shouldn't have let this go on
I'm caught in the middle of
I shouldn't have let this go on

*** Thanx a lot to Bluejuice for this one ***

Went away

What does the big hand say?
We can go we can go back now
Ready to run again
Come on home
Come and see us

I was the one that went away

As soon as i get some pain
Shut me in, lock me inside now
Before I run again
Follow on, follow me back
Are you well? I'm alive, Just miles away
Are you well? I'm alive, Just miles away

look at the life i saved
All i hate holds me upside down
Until we get some rain
We all know the way to your hometown

I was the one that went away

Too tough, fought too hard
Come back never too much
I'm here again to pick up the pieces
How to find, find your smile
Make it work, make it mine
I walked away, I walked away

Are you well? I'm alive, Just miles away
Are you well? I'm alive, Just miles away

*** Thanx a lot to Bluejuice for this one ***

Not today

I don't know what went wrong, do you need a reason?
My sense has been and gone
And taken my head
All feeling shot to hell
Do you need to see this
I shot my foot as well

I don't know what to say
you got me
It hasn't gone away
And I haven't changed
You haven't found a way
To stop me
I'm set to go again

What I don't need
Won't help 'cause he knows me
Too well what i should be
Myself but not today I'm miles away
And not so well at all

All my days
I want to be somewhere else
A cold embrace
Has taken me into his hell
For all I need
I want you to take it back
For all I take
I want you to help me out

What I don't need
Won't help 'cause he knows me
Too well what i should be
Myself but not today I'm miles away
And not so well at all

I don't know what to say
you got me
It hasn't gone away
And I haven't changed
You haven't found a way
To stop me
I'm set to go again

What I don't need
Won't help 'cause he knows me
Too well what i should be
Myself but not today I'm miles away
And not so well at all

100 of me

 There's a hundred of me
And they're all screaming
There's a thousand of me
And they're all scheming

There's a hundred of me
And they're all lying
There's a thousand of me
And they're not trying

I cut myself just to watch it bleeding
I hurt myself and i let it show
Shot myself just to watch you grieving
I'll never let go

It's the same mistake
We get hurt but we're up again
Took too much
But it dulls the pain
Get me back to your world
I could stay awake
We get hurt to be up again
I could break
But it helps the pain
Get me back to your world

There's a hundred of me
And they're all leaving
There's a thousand of me
And they're not breathing
There's a hundred of me
And they're all dying
There's a thousand of me
And they're all flying

You know i will but you cannot make me
You should not wait for the girl you know
Back down till you learn to hate me
It's starting to show

It's the same mistake
We get hurt but we're up again
Took too much
But it dulls the pain
Get me back to your world
I could stay awake
We get hurt to be up again
I could break
But it helps the pain
Get me back to your world

I'm not saying nothing
Think i'll start a fight
You'll come up with something
I think should prove me right
I'm not saying nothing
What's said is said, it's said

It's the same mistake
We get hurt but we're up again
Took too much
But it dulls the pain
Get me back to your world
I could stay awake
We get hurt to be up again
I could break
But it helps the pain
Get me back to your world

I need to leave

 I need to break the silence
But I can't speak
My heart is wrapped around my throat
Somebody start the fire
I need a drink
Then we can slide into our roles

I'm loveless
It must be so
How could I live with this on me

I need to start the violence
I need to hear
The screaming horror of my words
And there's no peace
For what I've done
It doesn't seem
As If I won
And honestly
I'm a broken dove
Who cannot bleed
Who's not enough

I'm an atrocious liar
I need to leave
Why can't we leave ourselves

It doesn't feel
Like anyone
It doesn't seem
As if won
And honestly
I'm a fallen dove
Who cannot feel
Who's not enough

How safe, how safe with anybody
Hands, only hands

Summertime rolls

Fell into a sea of grass
And disappeared amongst the shady glades
The children all run over me
Screaming tag, you are the one

He trips her up
Her sandals fail
She says stop, I'm a girl'
Her fingernails are made of a mothers' pearl

Yellow buttercup
Hellicopter
Orange buttercat
Chasing after the crazy bee
Mad about somebody oh no

Me and my girlfriend
Don't wear no shoes you know
Her nose is painted in a pepper sunlight

There was so much space
I could cut me a piece
With some fine wine
It brought peace to my mind
In the summertime
And it rolls

Summer oh oh oh
Oh oh oh
Summertime rolls

Me and my girlfriend
We don't wear no clothes you know
Her nose is painted in a pepper sunlight
I love her I mean it's oh so serious
As serious as can be

Oh well.....

She sing a song and I listen to what it says
And if you want a friend
Feed any animal oh oh oh

There was so much space
I could cut me a piece
With some fine wine
It brought peace to my mind
In summertime and it rolls

Oh oh oh
Summertime rolls

*** Thanx a lot to Bluejuice for this one ***

Anyone else

First to wake and last to fall
Angry all the time
Are you hurt? The pain will go
Leaving less to hide

Anyone else I know
They would believe me
Anyone else would beg
Me to decide
Can't tell you what I've done
Can't take this on my own
Can't save it
What have I done again

Trouble is you're gonna leave me
aching all the time
Have you taken all I've earned
Wrapped yourself in lies

Anyone else I know
They would believe me
Anyone else would beg
You to decide
Can't tell you what I've done
Can't take this on my own
Can't save it
What have I done again

Broken down
Help us out
Now I feel what you wanted
Always are down
Save yourself
'Cause I don't want it

*** Thanx a lot to Shadowrunner for this one ***

In Limbo

7 Seconds

Seven wishes from our hill
And the smoke takes them away
Missing pieces will start to fill
All the cracks along the way

Images come, we send them to heaven
Light up the sky with love
Images come, we send them together
He's coming home
He's coming home

Breeze enchanted
He's enchanted from thin air
Desire's a pull to earth

Seven seconds and five have gone
He will be in my arms again
He will notice you're standing here
And it will always be this way

Images come, we send them to heaven
Light up the sky with love
Images come, we send them together
He's coming home
He's coming home

Breeze enchanted
He's enchanted from thin air
Desire's a pull to earth

Breeze enchanted
He's enchanted from thin air
Desire's a pull to earth

In seven seconds
This song will end

Digging Too Deep

You're digging too deep
Just been told I miss you
A couple of weeks
I'm in a despair

You're digging too deep
I may not forgive you
Oh, taking over by my haunted bed
Oh, so much colder, how can I forget

How long did you know
How long could you go
How long were you gonna let me in

How long did you know
How long could you go
How long were you gonna let me in

You're allowed to take away
You're allowed to take away
You're allowed to take away
I'm sorry you did it

Oh, taking over by my haunted bed
Oh, so much colder, how can I forget

How long did you know
How long could you go
How long were you gonna let me in

How long did you know
How long could you go
How long were you gonna let me in

You're allowed to take away
You're allowed to take away
You're allowed to take away
I'm sorry you did it

You're digging too deep
You're digging too deep
You're digging too deep

Just been told I miss you

You're allowed to take away
You're allowed to take away
You're allowed to take away
I'm sorry you did it

You're allowed to take away
You're allowed to take away
You're allowed to take away
It's allowed to take...

Sand

What we're gonna do right here is go back
What we're gonna do right here is go back

Your face is changing all the time
I can't remember it
Your voice repeating in our mind
Our lives depend on it

I can't imagine anything
Other than being here
I can't imagine anything
Other than being here

The sand is in our eyes
The sky is turning red
And there's so little time
And guess what happens next

Anyway, you didn't die
And here's a light to lead the way
Out of your cave
Anyway, you didn't die
And here's a light to lead the way
Out of your cave

The sand is in our eyes
The sky is turning red
And there's so little time
For us to be prepared

Anyway, you didn't die
And here's the light to lead the way
Out of your cave
Anyway, you didn't die
And here's the light to lead the way
Out of your cave

I can't imagine anything
Other than being here
I can't imagine anything
Other than being here
I can't imagine anything
Other than being here
I can't imagine anything
Other than being here

Secrets

When did I get so immoral
No one more
And no one less

It was all in our minds
And you saw right through me
It was all in a time more innocent

Your secrets, you need them
You've learned to hide so well
No comforting confessions
Left to tell

Hands untied
You're free to follow
All these spies
I'm glad I'm dead

It was always a crime
That you never knew me
It was all in a time more innocent

Your secrets, you need them
You've learned to hide so well
No comforting confessions
Left to tell

Your secrets, you need them
You've learned to hide so well
No comforting confessions
Left to tell

It was all a time more innocent
It was always a crime more innocent
Your secrets, your secrets

Warzone

( Featuring Martina Topley-Bird )

I can feel it on the inside even now
Would you like to forget it
I can see you at the window
Upside down and ?

I was stinging on the inside even now
But you still don't get it
I was screaming underwater
"All our lives should end"

You can't watch again
So you broke your camera
Thrown into the sea
You can't watch again
So you broke your câmera
Thrown into the sea

I was stinging on the inside even now
But you still don't get it
I was screaming underwater
"All our lives should end"

All played a part, closer dark
My silence, all traitors are
I'm a slave, you're a king

You can't watch again
So you broke your camera
Thrown into the sea
You can't watch again
So you broke your camera
Thrown into the sea

Dirty piece of meat
Who wears the blue
On yourself, a sanity
On yourself, a sanity
On yourself, on everything

I was biting up my fingers
Till they bled
But I'm still not ready
You can help me take the skin off
With your teeth and nails

I was stinging on the inside even now
But you still don't get it
I was screaming underwater
"All our lies should end"

All played a part, closer dark
My silence, all traitors are
I'm a slave, you're a king

Sitting here, we'll wait till dawn
We'll wait till dawn

Shouldn't Be Here

I wake up on your couch
But you're not home
The key's still in my hand

Way down low
Lay down low
Lay down low
They don’t know
You'll never see me

Lay down low
Lay down low
Way down low
They don’t know

Well I shouldn’t be here anyway
I want you to want you to know

I move the chairs around
Before I go
Turn photographs face down

Well I shouldn’t be here anyway
I want you to want you to know
Well I shouldn’t be here

Give me a little taste of
Why don’t you
Give me a little taste of
Why can't you
Give me a little taste of
Why don’t you
Oh yeah
Why can't you

I turn the heating down
Let myself out
Into the cold

Well I shouldn’t be here anyway
I want you to want you to know
Well I shouldn’t be here anyway
I want you to want you to know
Well I shouldn’t be here

Give me a little taste of
Why don’t you
Give me a little taste of
Why can't you
Give me a little taste of
Why don’t you
Oh yeah
Why can't you
Give me a little taste of
(Well I shouldn’t be here)
Why don’t you
Give me a little taste of
Why can't you
Give me a little taste of
(Well I shouldn’t be here)
Why don’t you
Oh yeah
Why can't you

Worst Side

I start to feel like you don't know
What it's been like
I thought my heart would overflow
And I was right

There was a time I would do anything
Just to keep the thin spark of us alive
Now I've seen and told you everything
And it's never gonna change, no, no, no

I've seen the worst side
You, best not to let you do
Try me again
You pulled me back from the edge

I've seen the worst side
You, best not to let you
Do try me again
You pulled me back from the edg

I couldn't wait for you to answer me
It was easier to read between the lines
If I'd have seen you coming after me
I'd have never gone away, no, no, no

I've seen the worst side
You, best not to let you
Do try me again
You pulled me back from the edg

I've seen the worst side
You, best not to let you
Do try me again
You pulled me back from the edge

I've seen the worst side
You, best not to let you
Do try me again
You pulled me back from the edge

I've seen the worst side
You, best not to let you
Do try me again
You pulled me back from the edge

I've seen the worst side
You, best not to let you

Dogs

You don't want to be the same
But all the other ships have sailed away
You can tell yourself it's still okay
If it's an illusion that you're looking for

You can wash yourself all day
You can't remove the stains of what you saw
You can turn and hide or walk away
But there's no running from who you are

I don't want to get caught or blown away
Broken down and torn apart like dots
Like dots in the rain
But the sun comes out again
Yes, the sun comes out again

I don't want to get caught or blown away
Broken down and torn apart like dots
Like dots in the rain

All eyes look to the sky again
We've heard what's been said
But they're all safely tucked up in bed
It's not our punishment
???
???

I don't want to get caught or blown away
Broken down and set upon like dots
Like dots in the rain
But the sun comes out again
Yes, the sun comes out again

All In Good Time

You're safe, no one knows you've been here
Escape, before it gets light
You say, no one would believe it
Afraid, that somebody might

No appetite
You've been defeated
All in good time
You're up again

You're safe, no one knows you're in here
Escape, before it gets light
Mistakes, sometimes we'll forgive them
You're wrong, even if you're right

No appetite
You've been defeated
All in good time
You're up again

And even when I sleep I still feel the same
All in good time
All in good time

Friend, you take care, of yourself, be aware
There's no light at the end of this
And you're so unprepared for
Let it go
You've been told

No appetite
You've been defeated
All in good time
You're up again

No appetite
You've been defeated
All in good time
You're up again

Everything

It was the last time I knew you would leave it
Your face like a prizefight you caught in the ring
Ghosts all around you I knew they would win it
When will they be back again

Read the words as I breathe on the mirror
Someone stop me, please

It's not over yet
I won't forget
Anything
So don't say a word
It's going to hurt
Everything

Where have you been hiding
I want you to know what you mean to me
Why do you deny me
We all go to hell in the end

Read the words as I breathe on the mirror
Someone stop me, please

It's not over yet
I won't forget
Anything
So don't say a word
It's going to hurt
Everything

I can't tell you now
Someday you'll know
Everything

It's not over yet
I won't forget
Anything
So don't say a word
It's going to hurt
Everything

It's not over yet
I won't forget
Anything
So don't say a word
It's going to hurt
Everything

I can't tell you now
Someday you'll know
Everything
I can't tell you now
Someday you'll know
Everything

HAL9000

What's the point
You won't be there
Fortunately no one cares

You despise
You despair
Why don't you get angry
Don't you care

What do you think I came here for
I just wanted to see
What do you think I'm looking for
I don't want to believe

It takes too long
It's not enough
There's nothing left
And now he's gone again
He's gone again

It takes too long
It's not enough
There's nothing left
And now he's gone again
He's gone again

What do you think I came here for
I just wanted to see
What do you think I'm looking for
I don't want to believe

You already knew it
You already knew it
You already knew it
You already knew it

What do you think I came here for
I just wanted to see
What do you think I'm looking for
I don't want to believe

You already knew it
You already knew it
You already knew it
You already knew it

War Is Over

And you can't wait to get away
'Cause you don't need me now
And there's no grace in what you say
I don't believe you now

I don't even know her
You could lie in the face or the look
War is over, I've recovered
But you won't be there to see me

And I let go who what I know
'Cause it can free me now
I used to wait, I used to pray
I'm almost sorry that you suffered
Windows open, I'll escape

Now my feet don't touch the ground
Do you believe me now
There you can see me now
Oh what do you need

And there's no place and I can't wait
'Cause I don't need you now
'Cause I let go from all I know
'Cause it can free me now

I don't even know her
You could lie in the face or the look
War is over, I've recovered

Now my feet don't touch the ground
Do you believe me now
There you can see me now
Oh what do you need

War is over, I've recovered
I don't even need to fight
Do you believe me now
There you can see me now

Another Boy

He's good company for the duration
Take another look before he goes
With another ounce of motivation
I've got the doors before they close

Just another boy and his reasons
Gonna find a fault in them all
Just another boy and he's leaving
Couldn't fight the fight anymore

I seem to always remember your face
When I coming down
I need to try not to call you and say
When you coming back
I'm still left in the shade
In silver and gray and I don't know why
I can always remember your face
Waiting alone for your rage to fall upon me

It's another chance to make it happen
You pack your bags and out that door
Just another way to say I'm leaving
You suit yourself, but I want more

Just another boy and his reasons
Gonna find a fault in them all
Just another boy and he's leaving
Couldn't fight the fight anymore

I seem to always remember your face
When I coming down
I need to try not to call you and say
When you coming back
I'm still left in the shade
In silver and gray and I don't know why
I can always remember your face
Waiting alone for your rage to fall upon me

Just another day for no good reasons
Both of us still keeping score

Just another boy and his reasons
Couldn't find a fault in them all
Just another boy and he's leaving
Couldn't try to try anymore

I seem to always remember your face
When I coming down
I need to try not to call you and say
When you coming back
I'm still left in the shade
In silver and gray and I don't know why
I can always remember your face
Waiting alone for your rage to fall upon me

Fake Plastic Trees

( Radiohead Cover )

Her green plastic watering can
For her fake Chinese rubber plant
In a fake plastic earth

That she bought from a rubber man
In a town full of rubber plans
To get rid of itself

It wears her out
It wears her out
It wears her out
It wears her out

Well, she looks like the real thing
And she tastes like the real thing
My fake plastic love

But I can't fight the feeling
I could blow through the ceiling
I just turn and run

It wears her out (so beautiful)
It wears her out (so beautiful)
It wears her out (so beautiful)
It wears her out (so beautiful)

And if I could be who you wanted
Wish I could be who you wanted
All the time
All the time

Well, she lives with a broken man
A cracked polystyrene man
Who just crumbles and burns

And he used to do surgery
For the girls in the eighties
But gravity always wins

It wears her out
It wears her out
It wears her out
It wears her out

But she looks like the real thing
And she tastes like the real thing
My fake plastic love

But I can't fight the feeling
I could blow through the ceiling
I just turn and run

It wears her out (so beautiful)
It wears her out (so beautiful)
It wears her out (so beautiful)
It wears her out (so beautiful)

And if I could be who you wanted
Wish I could be who you wanted
All the time
All the time

So beautiful
All the time
So beautiful
So beautiful
So beautiful

I'VE BEEN HERE THE LONGEST

God Can Make You Pay

Cat's got his tongue
The wind will change his face
Winter's too long
For him to wait
And God will put you where he wants
God can make you pay

Run, rabbit, run
The snow will melt away
Follow the sun
Don't look behind you
And God will put you where he wants
God can make you pay

So hang your head down low
'Cause if you want it, I'll be on it
I will seek to you, I'll need to
If you want it, I'll be on in
I will seek to you, I'll need to
'Cause I'll always be there

Gone baby, gone
His eyes are filled with rain
Father like son
Don't look behind you
And God will put you where He wants
God will make you pay

(Can you feel yourself falling?)
(Can you see yourself falling?)
(Can you see yourself falling?)
(Can you see...)

So hang your head down low
'Cause if you want it, I'll be on it
I will seek you, I'll meet you
If you want it, I'll be on it
I will see till you want me to
'Cause I'll always be there

So hang your head down low
(Can you feel yourself falling?)
'Cause if you want it, I'll be on it
I will seek to you, I'll need to
If you want it, I'll be on in
I will seek to you, I'll need to
'Cause I'll always be there

Run, rabbit, run
The snow will melt away
Follow the sun
Don't look behind you
God will put you where He wants
God can make you pay

God will put you where He wants
God can make you pay

Got Nothing

What if I got nothing
What if I got Nothing
What if I got Nothing
And you're leaving

What if I got nothing
And you see it
Darling
I can't stand it
It's your heartache
I can't stand it

What if I got nothing
What if I got nothing, babe
What if I got Nothing
Can you see it
Darling
I can't stand it
I won't leave it
Too long, baby

I'm still haunted by your face
And your heart I cannot wait
For nothing

What if I got nothing, babe
What if I got nothing
What if I got nothing, babe
What if I got Nothing
Can you see it

I'm still haunted by your face
It's your heart I hear you play (?)
I'm only here in your way
Without it

Daylight

Speed is like a dozen transatlantic flights
Speed is like a dozen transatlantic flights

Daylight again
I'm Walking
Into the rain
It's washing days of dirt
And pain away from me

I forget how did this start
What if all this falls apart
Cannot melt this all away

Speed is like a dozen transatlantic flights
Speed is like a dozen transatlantic flights

Without ever getting off the plane
Time change
You lose, you gain
Makes no difference
As long as you keep ???

What if all this falls apart
But sooner or later you've gotta get out
I don't know how did it start
I think it's crushing
Can you go now and be okay (?)
And all at once, you're frozen
And all true emotions

Daylight again
I'm Walking
Into the rain
It's washing
Days of dirt
And pain away from me

I forget how did this start
What if all this falls apart
Cannot melt this all away

What if all this falls apart
I don't know how did it start
Can you go now and be okay

All Over Now

You're sleeping and I'm awake
Reapeating the same mistakes
But when will you notice
That I've gone

It's easy to slip away
Believing that it's okay
But when will you notice
That I've gone

Time after time
I stay true to myself
I had to hide
Become somebody else

Don't worry it's all over now
Don't worry it's all over now

How could I disappear when
Only you were around
I'd sneak each single tear
I'd find my way out again

Time after time
I stay true to myself
I had to hide
Become somebody else

Don't worry
It's all over now
Don't worry
It's all over now

Destroy Me

Is it over yet
I'm not ready to forget
Anything, everything I've wanted

It's not going to get any easier, I bet
There's no pill that could heal me from hell

It's not going to get any easier, I bet
If I'm still, nothing will destroy me
Don't tell me what I should do
There's no pill that could heal me from hell

So run away, hey-hey, this time
To run away, hey-hey, this time
Why do you hesitate each time
Why are you waiting

You are, you are, you are
Destroy me
You are, you are, you are
Destroy me

It's not going to get any easier, I bet
There's no pill that could heal me from hell
Don't tell me what I should do
If I'm still, nothing will destroy me

Don't tell me what you would do
There's no pill that could heal me from hell

So run away, hey-hey, this time
To run away, hey-hey, this time
Why do you hesitate each time
Why are you waiting

If I'm still (you are)
If I'm still (you are)
If I'm still (you are)
Destroy me

If I'm still (you are)
If I'm still (you are)
If I'm still (you are)
Destroy me

So run away, hey-hey, this time
To run away, hey-hey, this time
Why do you hesitate each time
Why are you waiting

Watershed

Doesn't look like you
And doesn't do
The things I want him to
And never will

Has wrapped itself again
Around our hearts
Breathing once with you
And can't again

All around, I sense
You shudder too
I do it to myself
And always do

He doesn't want to talk
That's still okay
Was just about to call
And never did

And ever since I let him down
I caught a taste (?)
Of my own life behind his eyes
And that will never change

My love will never die alone
My love will never die alone

It's not like you at all
It doesn't feel
The way I wanted to
It's killing him, oh

It's not like you at all
This feeling now
And I'm so breakable
I want to scream aloud

My love
My love will never die alone

Sleep and I will see you somewhere
Sleep and I will keep this for always
Sleep and I will breathe like you breathe too
A sound and I will go

It's not like you at all
It doesn't feel
The way I wanted to
It's killing him, oh

It's not like you at all
This feeling now
And I'm so breakable
I want to scream aloud

My love
My love
My love

I need You

I have fought so hard
To keep you from my brain
Knowing one stray thought would
Put me back again
Any dreams of us
Had long been thrown away

Though our love was lost
It somehow found a way
To recover us and slap us in our face
Oh, but I never thought
I'd ever hear you say

I need you
I need you

Tried to ignore the signs
But they were everywhere
I tried to live my life
Pretending you weren't there

But somewhere deep inside
I always knew you cared

I need you
I need you
I need you

It's happening again
And I feel it in my veins
I come alive again
When I see you, darling

I need you
I need you
I need you

You Should've stayed

You should tell me when you're leaving
I could walk you through the park
If it's better not to see me now
I'll just call you when you've gone

I'm not going out this evening, no
I'm not waiting for a call
I don't anyone out there to see me
I don't wanna see anyone that you know

You should stay
You should stay
You should stay
You should stay

I'm not waiting for that feeling, no
I'm not going to last that long
There must be some way to get you to need me
I don't want anything else to go wrong

You should stay
You should stay
You should stay
You should stay

I'm freezing outside your door
You're breaking up on my phone
I can't stay up here no more
It's hurting my eyes
The weight of my sorrow

You should stay
You should stay
You should stay

I'm freezing outside your door
You're breaking up on my phone
I can't stay up here no more
It's hurting my eyes
The weight of my sorrow

You should stay
You should stay
You should stay
I'm not going out this evening, no

Not Going Back

Everyone is safe
The storm has lifted
Stars are over me

Everything is great
We want to sleep
The sleeper princess sleeps

Everything is great
The road wide open
Moon is following me

Everyone is safe
The sun is rising
Sand beneath our feet

If I could take
Just one thing with me
I would take the sea

If I can't wait
Would you forgive me
I will save the sea

'Cause I'm not going back myself
No, I'm not going back myself
No, I'm not looking down on myself
No, I'm not going back

If I could take
Just one thing with me
I would take the sea

If I can't wait
Would you forgive me
I will save the sea

'Cause I'm not going back myself
No, I'm not going back myself
No, I'm not looking down on myself
No, I'm not going back

Don't turn the light back on
You believe me
Don't turn the light back on
You'll see it

Don't turn the light back on
You believe me
Don't turn the light back on
You'll stay here

Sirens

Lay down
And watch them fly over
They dance, they dive for us
Grey clouds, they shadow the ocean
They turn the stars to dust

In silence
Their souls cross over
Like sirens
Calling us closer
To home

Lay down
And watch them fly over
They dance, they dive for us

In silence
Their souls cross over
Like sirens
Calling us closer
To home

Riddle Me This

What a town, what a place
What a face, what a story
What a case for the soul
Give it to me

Be deep in endless dreams
You absorbed me on your heart
Still sleeping endlessly
You know me, I won't stop

You should've been ???
You could be my angel
You should be anything else
You, you could be a stranger

Don't it beat it out
Don't it beat, the bad guys
Be anything at all
Most of all, be my guy

Not if I fall awake
And say that everything is safe
Oh, isn't it love to tell like you don't know

What are they say, you still a ???
Or are you alive
But a day, you know
I'm going so
Always there to rely on
Up and down

Not if I fall awake
And say that everything is safe
Oh, isn't it love to tell like you don't know

What a town, what a need
For something soft to lie on
Tricks to you and funs to me
We got our hopes to rely on
Who then they (?)

Not if I fall awake
And say that everything is safe
Oh, isn't it love to tell like you don't know

Simple as it gets to be
I know you, you do
What a thing (?)
I knew that it wouldn't make them angry

Flipping to your ???
You are always there to rely on
Up and down

Not if I fall awake
And say that everything is safe
Oh, isn't it love to tell like you don't know

Dragons

(Evil For The Greater Good EP)

I've got dragons in my way
And they're slowly rolling me down
And I'm crushed beneath the weight of their wings
And I see the sunlight now
And the wave is breaking on me
And I need to take a breath

I've got heartache in my sleep
And there's no one holding me now
And I'm crushed beneath the weight of your words
I can see the surface now
And I almost see your face
And I need to breathe

Galloping out, you dive under and over
Racing the wind and the moon comes with me
Lavender clouds begin gathering closer
Heaven surrounds me, I hear them singing

Faith in my heart, in my soul
And I'm struck with gold
Rays on my face and my hands
Let go

Galloping out, you come kicking and screaming
Racing the wind and the moon comes with me
Lavender clouds begin gathering closer
Heaven surrounds me, I hear them singing

Faith in my heart, in my soul
And I'm struck with gold
Rays on my face and my hands
Let go

Eyes

(Evil for the Greater Good EP)

Once in a room that was lit by the moon
And our ship sailed too soon
You had some mystery then
You would not tell me when

There for a while
I was lost in your smile
And my soul was beguiled
You held my heart in your hand
But you did not understand

Once in a while, I can take it
I'm caught with your smile in my head
Just give me a while and I'll shake it

Through your eyes are the windows to your soul
Yes, your eyes are the windows to your soul
Oh, your eyes are the windows to your soul

When we are old and our children have grown
And you're feeling alone
I hope you'll reach for me then
I will be here till the end

Once in a while I can take it
I'm caught with your smile in my head
Just give me a while and I'll shake it

Through your eyes are the windows to your soul
Yes, your eyes are the windows to your soul
Oh, your eyes are the windows to your soul

Once in a while I can take it
I'm caught with your smile in my head
Just give me some time and I'll shake it through

Your eyes are the windows to your soul
Yes, your eyes are the windows to your soul
Oh, your eyes are the windows to your soul

Fairytale Of New York

(The Pogues cover / A Very Robsgiving Christmas Album compilation)

It was Christmas Eve, babe
In the drunk tank
An old man said to me
"Won't see another one"
And then he sang a song
'The Rare Old Mountain Dew'
I turned my face away
And dreamed, dreamed about you

Got on a lucky one
Came in eighteen-to-one
I've got a feeling
This year's for me and you
So Happy Christmas
I love you, baby
I can see a better time
When all our dreams come true

They've got cars big as bars, they've got rivers of gold
But the wind goes right through you, it's no place for the old
When you first took my hand on a cold Christmas Eve
You promised me Broadway was waiting for me

You were handsome
You were pretty, Queen of New York City
When the band finished playing
They howled out for more
Sinatra was swinging
All the drunks, they were singing
We kissed on a corner
Then danced through the night

The boys of the NYPD choir
Were singing 'Galway Bay'
And the bells were ringing out
For Christmas day

You're a bum, you're a punk
You're an old slut on junk
Lying there almost dead on a drip in that bed
You scumbag, you maggot
You're cheap and you're haggard
Happy Christmas, your arse
I pray God it's our last

The boys of the NYPD choir
Singing 'Galway Bay'
And the bells are ringing out
For Christmas day

"I could have been someone"
Well, so could anyone
You took my dreams from me
When I first found you
I kept them with me, babe
I put them with my own
Can't make it all alone
I've built my dreams around you

The boys of the NYPD choir
Singing 'Galway Bay'
And the bells are ringing out
For Christmas day

The boys of the NYPD choir
Still singing 'Galway Bay'
And the bells are ringing out
For Christmas day

Take

(Evil for the Greater Good EP)

Take all the water in my well
It's all right
Take every pearl in my shell
It's all right

I will survive on daylight
Peaches and wine
Take off your armor and your belt
For one night

When you're losing your heart
When you're losing your heart
When you're slipping away
When you're falling apart

Sleep, sleep
It's all right

Take all the water in my well
It's all right
Take every pearl in my shell
It's all right

I will survive on daylight
Peaches and wine
Fly through the night till daylight
Lay by your side

When you're losing your heart
When you're losing your heart
When you're slipping away
When you're falling apart

Sleep, sleep
It's all right

You got a taste for that lie
But your lonely feels come undone
And you know how that feels
But I'll always be in your eyes

Come along, come along
No more lonely feeling

Take all the water in my well
It's all right
Take every pearl in my shell
It's all right

When you're losing your heart
When you're losing your heart
When you're slipping away
When you're falling apart

Sleep, sleep
It's all right

When you're losing your heart
When you're losing your heart
When you're slipping away
When you're falling apart

Sleep, sleep
It's all right
Sleep, sleep
It's all right
