Unos dos tres catorce!
Lights go down, its darkThe jungle is your headCant rule your heartA feeling is so much stronger thanA thoughtYour eyes are wideAnd though your soulIt cant be boughtYour mind can wander
Hello helloIm at a place called VertigoIts everything I wish I didnt knowExcept you give me something I can feel, feel
The night is full of holesAs bullets rip the skyOf ink with goldThey twinkle as theBoys play rock and rollThey know they cant danceAt least they know
I cant stand the beatsIm asking for the chequeThe girl with crimson nailsHas Jesus round her neckSwinging to the musicSwinging to the musicOh oh oh oh
Hello helloIm at a place called VertigoIts everything I wish I didnt knowBut you give me something I can feel, feel
Check matedOh yeah
Hours of fun
All of this, all of this can be yoursAll of this, all of this can be yours
All of this, all of this can be yoursJust give me what I want and no-one gets hurt
Hello helloWere at a place called VertigoLights go down and all I knowIs that you give me something
I can feel your love teaching me howYour love is teaching me how, how to kneel
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
1//VERTIGO 3:13 2//MIRACLE DRUG 3:54
I want to trip inside your headSpend the day thereTo hear the things you havent saidAnd see what you might see
I want to hear you when you callDo you feel anything at all?I want to see your thoughts take shapeAnd walk right out
Freedom has a scentLike the top of a new born babys head
The songs are in your eyesI see them when you smileIve had enough Im not giving upOn a miracle drug
Of science and the human heartThere is no limitThere is no failure here sweetheartJust when you quit
I am you and you are mineLove makes nonsense of spaceAnd time will disappearLove and logic keep us clearReason is on our side, love
The songs are in your eyesI see them when you smileIve had enough of romantic loveId give it up, yeah, Id give it upFor a miracle, a miracle drug, a miracle drug
God I need your help tonight
Beneath the noiseBelow the dinI hear a voice
Its whisperingIn science and in medicineI was a strangerYou took me in
The songs are in your eyesI see them when you smileIve had enough of romantic loveId give it up, yeah, Id give it upFor a miracle, miracle drug
Miracle, miracle drug

Take these shoesClick clacking down some dead end streetTake these shoesAnd make them fitTake this shirtPolyester white trash made in nowhereTake this shirtAnd make it clean, cleanTake this soulStranded in some skin and bonesTake this soulAnd make it sing
Yahweh, YahwehAlways pain before a child is bornYahweh, YahwehStill Im waiting for the dawn
Take these handsTeach them what to carryTake these handsDont make a fistTake this mouthSo quick to criticiseTake this mouthGive it a kiss
Yahweh, YahwehAlways pain before a child is bornYahweh, YahwehStill Im waiting for the dawn
Still waiting for the dawn, the sun is coming upThe sun is coming up on the oceanThis love is like a drop in the oceanThis love is like a drop in the ocean
Yahweh, YahwehAlways pain before a child is bornYahweh, tell me now
Why the dark before the dawn?
Take this cityA city should be shining on a hillTake this cityIf it be your willWhat no man can own, no man can takeTake this heartTake this heartTake this heartAnd make it break

Im round the corner from anything thats realIm across the road from hopeIm under a bridge in a rip tideThats taken everything I call my own
One step closer to knowingOne step closer to knowing
Im on an island at a busy intersectionI cant go forward, I cant turn backCant see the futureIts getting away from meI just watch the tail lights glowing
One step closer to knowingOne step closer to knowingOne step closer to knowingKnowing, knowing
Im hanging out to dryWith my old clothesFinger still red with the prick of an old roseWell the heart that hurtsIs a heart that beatsCan you hear the drummer slowing?
One step closer to knowingOne step closer to knowingOne step closer to knowingTo knowing, to knowing, to knowing
With special thanks to Noel Gallagher

9//ONE STEP CLOSER 3:48
Baby slow downThe end is not as fun as the startPlease stay a child somewhere in your heart
Ill give you everything you wantExcept the thing that you wantYou are the first one of your kind
And you feel like no-one beforeYou steal right under my doorAnd I kneel cos I want you some moreI want the lot of what you gotAnd I want nothing that youre not
Everywhere you go you shout itYou dont have to be shy about it
Some things you shouldnt get too good at
Like smiling, crying and celebritySome people got way too much confidence baby
Ill give you everything you wantExcept the thing that you wantYou are the first one of your kind
And you feel like no-one beforeYou steal right under my doorI kneel cos I want you some moreI want the lot of what you gotAnd I want nothing that youre not
Everywhere you go you shout itYou dont have to be shy about it, noAnd youll never be aloneCome on now show your soulYouve been keeping your love under control
Everywhere you go you shout itYou dont have to be shy about it
Everywhere you go you shout itOh my my
And you feel like no-one beforeYou steal right under my doorI kneel cos I want you some moreI want you some more, I want you some more

Tough, you think youve got the stuffYoure telling me and anyoneYoure hard enough
You dont have to put up a fightYou dont have to always be rightLet me take some of the punchesFor you tonight
Listen to me nowI need to let you knowYou dont have to go it alone
And its you when I look in the mirrorAnd its you when I dont pick up the phoneSometimes you cant make it on your own
We fight all the time
You and I thats alrightWere the same soulI dont need I dont need to hear you sayThat if we werent so alikeYoud like me a whole lot more
Listen to me nowI need to let you knowYou dont have to go it alone
And its you when I look in the mirrorAnd its you when I dont pick up the phoneSometimes you cant make it on your own
I know that we dont talkIm sick of it allCan - you - hear - me - when - I -Sing, youre the reason I singYoure the reason why the opera is in me
Where are we now?Ive got to let you knowA house still doesnt make a home
Dont leave me here alone...
And its you when I look in the mirrorAnd its you that makes it hard to let goSometimes you cant make it on your ownSometimes you cant make itThe best you can do is to fake itSometimes you cant make it on your own

I was born a child of graceNothing else about the placeEverything was ugly but your beautiful faceAnd it left me no illusion
I saw you in the curve of the moonIn the shadow cast across my roomYou heard me in my tuneWhen I just heard confusion
All because of youAll because of youAll because of youI am I am
I like the sound of my own voiceI didnt give anyone else a choiceAn intellectual tortoise
Racing with your bullet train
Some people get squashed crossing the tracksSome people got high rises on their backsIm not broke but you can see the cracksYou can make me perfect again
All because of youAll because of youAll because of youI am I am
Im aliveIm being bornI just arrived, Im at the doorOf the place I started out fromAnd I want back inside
All because of youAll because of youAll because of youI am

The more you see the less you knowThe less you find out as you goI knew much more then than I do now
Neon heart dayglo eyesA city lit by firefliesTheyre advertising in the skiesFor people like us
And I miss you when youre not aroundIm getting ready to leave the ground
Ooh ooh oohOoh ooh ooh
Oh you look so beautiful tonightIn the city of blinding lights
Dont look before you laugh
Look ugly in a photographFlash bulbs purple irisesThe camera cant see
Ive seen you walk unafraidIve seen you in the clothes you madeCan you see the beauty inside of me?What happened to the beauty I had inside of me?
And I miss you when youre not aroundIm getting ready to leave the ground
Ooh ooh oohOoh ooh ooh
Oh you look so beautiful tonightIn the city of blinding lights
Time timeWont leave me as I amBut time wont take the boy out of this man
Oh you look so beautiful tonightOh you look so beautiful tonight
Oh you look so beautiful tonightIn the city of blinding lights
The more you know the less you feelSome pray for others stealBlessings are not just for the ones who kneel luckily

Little sister dont you worry about a thing todayTake the heat from the sunLittle sisterI know that everything is not okBut youre like honey on my tongue
True love never can be rentBut only true love can keep beauty innocent
I could never take a chanceOf losing love to find romanceIn the mysterious distanceBetween a man and a womanNo I could never take a chanceCos I could never understandThe mysterious distanceBetween a man and a woman
You can run from loveAnd if its really love it will find youCatch you by the heelBut you cant be numb for loveThe only pain is to feel nothing at allHow can I hurt when Im holding you?
I could never take a chanceOf losing love to find romanceIn the mysterious distanceBetween a man and a woman
And youre the one, theres no-one elseYou make me want to lose myselfIn the mysterious distanceBetween a man and a woman
Brown eyed girl across the streetOn rue Saint DivineI thought this is the one for meBut she was already mineYou were already mine
Little sisterIve been sleeping in the street againLike a stray dogLittle sisterIve been trying to feel complete againBut youre gone and so is God
The soul needs beauty for a soul mateWhen the soul wants the soul waits
No I could never take a chanceOf losing love to find romanceIn the mysterious distanceBetween a man and a woman
