All the things you haven't seen
Everything that last between
Pages you've yet to turn
Lessons you've never learn
All the things you should have say
Will forever be in your hear
Just waiting for a reason
Waiting for a real thing
But I got time and you've got time
Remember when stars and I
And everything we did we did together
But I don't mind if you don't mind
And even if it all falls dawn
It's just another chance to make it better
I'm ready
I'm waiting
I'm waiting for what will come
'Cause it's you I like
So don't be shy
Just walk and up
Before you die
But here we go again
You say you're not my friend
And I'll be standing
We'll forget the thing we had
We'll blame it on the season
Never on the reason
But I got time and you've got time
Remember when stars and I
And everything we did we did together
But I don't mind if you don't mind
And even if it all falls dawn
It's just another chance to make it better
You know our love is gonna lost
So listen to your heart
When everyone around
Is like we're standing in the dark
You know our love is gonna change
As soon as you check out
Stopping you're rage
Before the father pledge you stay
I'm ready
I'm waiting
I'm waiting for what will come
I'm ready
I'm waiting
I'm waiting for what will come
What will come

It was summer in the city
And my heart stood still
I looked at the past inside
My rearview mirror
There was nobody behind me
And nothing up ahead
The sky was blue and all I knew
Was I would never feel the same again
I knew I'd never feel the same again
There was imagery in motion
There was gossip in the class
There was holding hands and making plans
I knew it wouldn't last
And of all the time we wasted
And all the time it took
And if I had more time then I wish you would
I really really really wish you would
But that's the part we never tried to stop
We never tried
No regret, don't you forget
This magnificent time
Seize the day, don't throw away
This magnificent time
I was somewhere in the city
And my heart went boom
I packed all my troubles in a different room
And I thought of all the could have beens
The roads we never took
And how the story ends and I understood
I really really really understood
But that's the part
We never tried to stop
We never tried
No regret, don't you forget
This magnificent time
Seize the day, don't throw away
This magnificent time
No regret, don't you forget
This magnificent time
Seize the day, don't throw away
This magnificent time
Magnificent time
Magnificent time

Sitting on a mushroom cloud
Waiting for the big fallout
Wandering around the house
Talking to myself out loud
Now it’s not cool to be proud
But it’s alright to get loud
I hear a song
It’s coming on the radio
Bangs like a gong
And outside the night
The night is gone
I wanna wake you up
Don’t wanna play it on the phone
The signal’s breaking up
Too late to celebrate
Now I’m alone
Oh I’m alone tonight
Open your mouth up wide
So we can park a bus inside
How do you sleep at night
With all of the shit you hide
You’re the only one who thinks it’s right
No wonder the bed bugs bite
I love this song
It’s coming on the radio
Bangs like a gong
And outside the night
The night is gone
I wanna wake you up
Don’t wanna play it on the phone
The signal’s breaking up
Too late to celebrate
Now I’m alone
Oh I’m alone tonight

Looking at my window
I can see the light
All the pretty people
Turning inside out
Watching television every single night
And when you twitter your opinion
Oh it feels so right
Wanna run wanna run but I'm paralysed
And the river running through me
Is as cold as ice
It's alright it's alright till you realise
That every memory is like a
Wieght around your feet
But I'm still looking at the window
Trying to be someone
All the pretty people
Eyes like valium
Preening for the screen like a Kardashian
And do you ever get the feeling
You're the only one
Wanna run wanna run but I'm paralysed
And the river running through me
Is as cold as ice
It's alright it's alright till you realise
That every memory is like a
Wieght around your feet
It goes around around
Like dirty laundry
Spins around round
We are never free
But I Will rise I will rise
Look you in the eye
And remember how it feels to be alive
When we were free
Not paralysed
Apparently paralysed
Apparently paralysed
Apparently paralysed

I was sure, I was right
I was king for a day every night
I was wrong, I was wrong
And I knew where to go
Every step was a step up the road
I was on, I was on
As I reach for the sky
It was clear I couldn't fly 'cause I'm not that animal
All the animals are running after me
It's all that I can do to stay on two feet
All the animals are running to the sea
And I give it away every night every day
Every word that I say
I'm an animal
So I land on a stage
And I find that I'm slipping away
Let it roll, let it roll
And the heart plays a game
Trying to fool a reptilian brain
In control, in control
Where I fly, or I fight
Wanna look into your eyes
There's nothing but animal there
All the animals are running after me
It's all that I can do to stay on two feet
All the animals are running to the sea
And I give it away every night every day
Every word that I say
I'm an animal
So let your walls come crashing down
Let your prayers fall to the ground
Let me see your smile
At the corner of the block
Be your words for a while
Be a song for a while
All the animals are running after me
It's all that I can do to stay on two feet
All the animals are running to the sea
And I give it away every night every day
Every word that I say I'm an animal I'm an animal

You can't do everything at once but you can do anything you want
Your autonomy can't be brought into question by anything
'Til you turn around and say that every year is like a day
And you have given it away, you give it all away, you give it
And now everything at once becomes the only thing that you want
You're a diffident man and your plans will not be executed
And the life that you believed you'd lead is starting to recede
And you have given it away, you give it all away, you give it away
When enough is enough and it's all too much for anyone
When you're out on your own, everybody's in love
When you push and you shove and you've got to keep the pressure on
All you need is some love and a way to get home
You can't do everything at once but when you try to pick only one
All the others coming running until you're busy doing nothing
And another day is done and there's another setting sun
And you have given it away, you give it all away, you give it away
When enough is enough and it's all too much for anyone
When you're out on your own, everybody's in love
When you push and you shove and you've got to keep the pressure on
All you need is some love and a way to get home
And I wanna be us, I don't wanna be them
And I wanna be now, I don't wanna be then
And I wanna be real, I don't want to pretend
And I want to begin, I don't want it to end
And I want it to start, I don't want it to break
And I want it to mend, I don't want to be fake
And I want it to give, wanna give it away
Wanna give it away, wanna give it away
You can't do everything at once but you can do anything you want
Your autonomy can't be brought into question by anything
'Til you turn around and say that every year is like a day
And you have given it away, you give it all away, you give it
When enough is enough and it's all too much for anyone
When you're out on your own, everybody's in love
When you push and you shove and you've got to keep the pressure on
All you need is some love and a way to get home

Every cloud has a silver line
But you still need the moon to shine
And we don't care about it
Is there something that you forgot
And you wish you could stop the clock
Because you can't live without it
We don't have a clue
Cause we're three miles high
And we'd rather as dust and feathers fly
And we can't climb down
Cause we'd burst our little bubble on the ground
Wow ho wow Everyone has a wall to climb
But we don't really have the time
To give a who-how about it
And your life is a Russian doll
You were given when you were small
And they'll all inside you
But we don't have a clue
Cause we're three miles high
And we'd rather as dust and feathers fly
And we can't climb down
Cause we'd burst our little bubble on the ground
And we won't come down
Till we hit the ground…
Cause we're three miles high
And we'd rather as dust and feathers fly
And we can't climb down
Cause we'd burst our little bubble on the ground

Open all the windows
Clear away the floor
Look into the future now
And all that went before
For love
All of the above
Tell them that you love them
Take them by the hand
Teach them how to love
And show them how to understand
This life
Cause you only have one chance
Cause all of the places you've been
Are hidden now
And all of the faces you've seen
Are going down
Pick another villain
Bring me more bad news
Open up the daily mail
And it's enough to lose your mind
Uh well, I've had it up to here
Cause all of the places you've been
Are hidden now
And all of the faces you've seen
Are going down
England's asleep
But I'm still wide awake
Be that as it may
I close my eyes
Cause all of the places you've been
Are hidden now
And all of the faces you've seen
Are going down

It was upon a row of houses
Tight skirts and baggy trousers
Green men and cheap disguises
High hopes and higher rises
Who lived a girl who was on a mission
Who lived a boy who was under suspicion
Tried hard to stay beside her
Until the devil put his seed inside her
How?
You know how
Sleep to love and the sand runs out
So close to midnight
Time to fly
Do or die
Stoned in the headlights
Here we lie
High and dry
The world will never see you 'till you open your eyes
Say goodnight
Kill the light
The world will never hear you tonight
Idlewild
For two years he tried to reach her
Worshiped the ground beneath her
She, she was always running
He, he saw the end was coming
But now the story takes a turn
She wakes up and her sheets are burning
Head down against the fire
Now, now, now the table turns
She won't learn
Sleep to love and your bed starts burning
So close to midnight
Idlewild you don't know
You never need to
Here we lie
High and dry
The world will never see you 'till you open your eyes
Say goodnight
Kill the light
The world will never hear you tonight
Idlewild
Idlewild
I thought that we were good together
I thought that we could weather the weather
Whether or not that wise is the word for us
That high hopes are only there because, because
Because I thought the only thing between us
Was something shallow not a river so deep (we see us)
Dredge up the wreckage our parents left us
Lay it on the banks to rot and fester
Now it's (scarlet and) hanging like a death star
And Gretna Green dark and Manchester
I don't want to hear it now
Here we lie
High and dry
The world will never see you 'till you open your eyes
Say goodnight, kill the light
The world will never hear you tonight
Idlewild
Idlewild
Kill the light
Idlewild

You're not listening
At all my words, so lost and found
Both want something new
I take the sky, you keep the ground
We can bend, we can break
We can learn to give and take
Do you have (the) friends to start a war?
What bridge you should've burned?
Givin' a chance to live and learn
Still so much left to explore
We've been living so fast for so long
Never take it any hits from no one
You got running on (train)
Still running from the place where the sun does
Take a track to the city where our hearts lie
Though our journey's still the same
Just strangers on a train
Close your restless eyes
I've seen no one who fought too much
It's hard to sympathize
When it's not me who's losing touch
Is there a joke you need to make?
Is there a smile you need to fake?
You cut so deep, you hit the bone
Is there a flame you need to light?
Is there a neck you need to bite?
Or does it take to guide you home?
We've been living so fast for so long
Never take it any hits from no one
You got running on (train)
Still running from the place where the sun does
Take a track to the city where our hearts lie
Though our journey's still the same
Just strangers on a train
If you got love, hold it high
Hold your heart up in the sky
Let it shine
Let it shine
If you got love, sing it loud
Hold your heart up in the crowd
Let it shine
Let it shine
If you got love, set it free
Hold your heart in front of me
Let it shine
Let it shine
If you got love, hold it high
Hold your heart up in the sky
Let it shine
Let it shine
Just let it shine
Let it shine
Just let it shine
Just let it shine
Let it shine
Let it shine

Post office clerks put up signs saying, position closed
And secretaries turn off typewriters and put on their coats
Janitors padlock the gates
For security guards to patrol
And bachelors phone up their friends for a drink
While the married ones turn on a chat show
And they'll all be lonely tonight and lonely tomorrow
Gentlemen time, please, you know we can't serve anymore
Now the traffic lights change to stop, when there's nothing to go
And by five o'clock everything's dead
And every third car is a cab
And ignorant people sleep in their beds
Like the doped white mice in the college lab
Nothing ever happens, nothing happens at all
The needle returns to the start of the song
And we all sing along like before
And we'll all be lonely tonight and lonely tomorrow
Telephone exchanges click, while there's nobody there
The Martians could land in the carpark and no one would care
Close-circuit cameras in department stores shoot the same video every day
And the stars of these films neither die nor get killed
Just survive constant action replay
Nothing ever happens, nothing happens at all
The needle returns to the start of the song
And we all sing along like before
And we'll all be lonely tonight and lonely tomorrow
Bill hoardings advertise products that nobody needs
While angry from Manchester writes to complain
About all the repeats on TV
And computer terminals report some gains
On the values of copper and tin
While American businessmen snap up Van Goghs
For the price of a hospital wing
Nothing ever happens, nothing happens at all
The needle returns to the start of the song
And we all sing along like before
Nothing ever happens, nothing happens at all
The needle returns to the start of the song
And we all sing along like before
And we'll all be lonely tonight and lonely tomorrow
And we'll all be lonely tonight and lonely tomorrow
