All You Need Is Now
It's all up to you now find yourself in the moment
go directly to the voodoo now the channel is openlose your head lose control
you come on delicate and fine like a diamond in the mind
woah, yeah, when you move into the light you're the greatest thing alive
woah... and youSWAY in the moon the way you did when you were younger
and we told everybody all you need is now
STAY with the music let it play a little longer
you don't need anybody all you need is nowEverybody's gunning for the VIP section
but you're better up and running in another directionwith your bones in the thrall
throw a shadow on the vine, bat your lashes let it shine
woah, yeah, every moment that arrives you're the greatest thing alive
woah... and youSWAY in the moon the way you did when you were younger
and we told everybody all you need is now
STAY with the music let it play a little longer
you don't need anybody all you need is nowall you need, all you need is now
all you need, all you need is now
all you need, all you need is now... and we will
SWAY in the moon the way we did when we were younger (when we were younger)
when we told everybody all you need is now
STAY with the music let it play a little longer (a little longer)
you don't need anybody all you need is nowall you need, all you need is now
all you need, all you need is now
all you need, all you need is now
all you need, all you need is now -
Blame the Machines
I'm driving up the autobahn
losing my way as the night gets long
the headlights shining in my face
scream out the danger of this placeand now there's no way home this love affair is ended
I should have known when I bought into the dream
so like your solid soul to leave me lost and stranded
I blame myself and I blame the machinesI'm flying blind I'm speeding through
I hate to think I've been fooled by you
an interactive nightmare show
which never ends, it just goes on and on and on and onand now there's no way home this love affair is ended
I should have known when I bought into the dream
so like your solid soul to leave me lost and stranded
I blame myself and I blame the machinesand now turn left
I have control
you are not required
to think at all
everything we hear (goes on and on)
everything we see,
everything we love (goes on and on)
everything we feel,
everything we want, (goes on and on)
everything we do, (and on)
everywhere we go (and on)
everything we know (and on)and now there's no way home this love affair is ended
I should have known when I bought into the dream
so like your solid soul to leave me lost and stranded
I blame myself and I blame the machinesoo-oh oo-oh -I blame the machines
oo-oh oo-oh -blame the machines

Being Followed
To the voyeur, seated in a darkened room.
Do you thrill when the green light starts pulsing?
Paranoia, the only valid point of view.
if you know what I'm saying.I'm not alone, being followed
someone always watching what we do
never alone, but I'm in the shadows
I dream things I don't want you to knowsomething shifting between the sirens and the glow
of red lights and the blue slowly turning
the fog is lifting
a silhouette begins the show
then the moment is stolenI'm not alone, being followed
someone always watching what we do
never alone, I'm in the shadows
I dream things I don't want you to knowIn this chamber lit by scandal
you're the bullet in the barrel
you're the last thing as I'm falling
bloody roaring still I'm calling out
I'm calling outI'm not alone, being followed
never alone, I'm being followed
I'm not alone, being followed
never alone, I'm being followed -
Leave a Light On
So come the evening
I'm out on the dunes
looking for a token
something to prove
all I remember
is more than a flame
in my fantasy firewhatever I've done to receive
whatever I need to redeem
whatever you say
even if I wait a lifetimeI know, I swear, if you leave a light on, if you leave a light on
for me
I'll come there
You can leave a light on for meIn comes the morning
I'm stood in my track
looking at the reasons
for me to head back
so unexpected
the kindness you've shown
that I will not forget itwhatever I've done to receive
whatever I need to redeem
whatever you say
even if I wait a lifetimeI know, I swear, if you leave a light on, if you leave a light on
for me
I'll come there
You can leave a light on for meyou breathe the will into the weak
and coax the cage bird to fly free
you ease the lost cause out of me
with your sweet hand to bring me home
I'm not aloneI know, I swear, if you leave a light on, if you leave a light on
for me,
I'll come there
You can leave a light on for meI know, I swear, if you leave a light on, if you leave a light on
for me,
I'll come there
You can leave a light on for me -
Safe (In the Heat of the Moment)
(People say you've been around
How 'bout you and me get down?
How 'bout you and me get down?
Babe I know you've been around
Unmake your bed
Don't think about what lies ahead
Don't you want to be misled?
Don't you want to be misled?)Fame, seems a far off day
when enough was never enough
vain, how I played my hand
one more reckless man in the roughstrange, how we explain the story that we've lived through
change, my karma train, the person I can be for you is...SAFE - safe in the heat of the moment -
a stillness that comes to me
when I'm close to you
SAFE - safe at the speed of atonement -
a feeling that runs so deep
that it scares me toodazed by my own escape
from the single state I was used to
face my catch-22
can I stay this way if I choose towrong, to be so contained now I can't explain what is happening
strong, is the human chain, as it pulls me through, what I bring to you is...SAFE - safe in the heat of the moment -
a stillness that comes to me
when I'm close to you
SAFE - safe at the speed of atonement -
a feeling that runs so deep
that it scares me tooSAFE - safe in the heat of the moment -
a stillness that comes to me
when I'm close to you
SAFE - safe at the speed of atonement -
a feeling that runs so deep
that it scares me tooFame, seems a far off day
when enough was never enough
vain, how I played my hand
one more reckless man in the rough(Hook a finger wink an eye
Caresses running up your thigh
Scratch my surface dig in deep
There's always secrets left to keep
Safe not sound who made these rules
Crowd control for enlightened fools
So come on boy let's change the pace
Come feel the chill of my embrace
People say you've been around
How 'bout you and me get down?
How 'bout you and me get down?
Babe I know you've been around
Unmake your bed
Don't think about what lies ahead
Don't you want to be misled?
Don't you want to be misled?)SAFE - safe in the heat of the moment -

that it scares me tooSAFE - safe in the heat of the moment -
a stillness that comes to me

SAFE - safe at the speed of atonement -
a feeling that runs so deep
that it scares me too -
Girl Panic!
I came by invitation to general Chelsea mayhem
then going on to somewhere, yes I was going somewhere
a single random meeting with your eyes and I am beaten
and now I'm going nowhere, I know I'm going nowherewith all the voices in my head
the clever words I never said
of all the things to happenin a girl panic, that's driving naked through my mind
it's a crush panic, she's got me atomizedyou beg me to get closer, dress falling off your shoulder
then heat is wrapping round us, this city strapped around us
coz now I sense your mission is my coming demolition
and you just hold me under, I know I'm going underwith all the voices in my head
the clever words I never said
and you just let it happenin a girl panic, that's driving naked through my mind
it's a crush panic, she's got me atomized
in a girl panic, the midnight traffic in her eyes
like a hypnotic, and I am mesmerizedyou know you know I want you; I know you know I want you
with all the voices in my head
the clever words I never said
and you just let it happenin a girl panic, that's driving naked through my mind
it's a crush panic, she's got me atomized
in a girl panic, the midnight traffic in her eyes
like a hypnotic, and I am mesmerizedin a girl panic
a crush panic
she's a hypnotic
it's a girl panic ! -
A Diamond in the Mind
Stay with the music
Let it play a little longer
All you need is now -
The Man Who Stole a Leopard
Do you know where we are?
I'm longing for the dark
of our nocturnal life
it begins and ends with you
don't spill my secretyou were once running wild hiding in the morning mist
game demands I make you mine
I thought that I could resist but the leopard in you
silently preyed on meI made my way back home
(did you follow her?)
I handled her with care
(were you in control?)
so elegant and sleek
(were you not afraid?)
I need her to be near
(does she belong to you?)
don't spill my secretyou were once running wild hiding in the morning mist
game demands I make you mine
thought that I could resist but the leopard in you
silently preyed on medeserted by my friends
(don't they understand?)
she's so much more than them
(how could they compare?)
so now she's just for me
(no one else can see)
I watch her while she sleeps
(be sure she dreams of you)
don't spill my secret(It's been quite a while)
since we were last outside
(and do you miss the chase?)
now that we've both been tamed
(inside this gilded cage)
prisoners of our thoughts
(you saved me from myself)
don't spill my secret -
Other People's Lives
Selling exes down the river
every Katie's got her price
and the details make you shiver
but it's hard to escape when your head is stuck in vice
because nothing matters in the self obsession age
where they dare you not to notice
but it's everywhere in shocking colour on the page
in the magazine
staring out at me
out of my TV
other people's lives
pixelated lives
just like yours and mineevery weekend I bear witness
to the social suicides
to the thief who stayed for breakfast
to the poster child screwing everybody's wife
yeah it's just a story but it keeps me hanging on
for the needy soul, the glory hole confessional
I've got to see what's going down
in the magazine
staring out at me
out of my TV
other people's lives
pixelated lives
just like yours and mineread the headlines... hear the sirens
I'm re-united... out of rehab... againit's everywhere in shocking colour on the page
in the magazine
staring out at me
out of my TV
other people's lives
pixelated lives
just like yours and mineRepeat...

Mediterranea
Across the sky a jet-trail following
the wish that I was on that plane
on my way to some far destination, undiscovered never mentioned
sipping on the high of expectation, I awaken to the shademaybe it's a rained out town one you want to leave behind
when a winter's on the ground, if you ever wonder?we believe, in the cold grey light we dream
there's a place for us... Mediterranea
yes we believe, where the white sands touch the sea
there's a space for us... MediterreneaI'm trading air for touchdown ecstasy
arriving there in a wave of heat
9am: the beach - tequila mayhem, sum of all suburban daydreams
waiting for a look, the invitation, I awaken to the shademaybe it's a rained out town, one you want to leave behind
when a winter's on the ground, if you ever wonderwe believe, in the cold grey light we dream
there's a place for us... Mediterranea
yes we believe, where the white sands touch the sea
there's a space for us... Mediterraneaoh imagine... summer fashion
see yourself in an old port town
let the sun shine out of your mind
a bed of light to lay you downwe believe, in the cold grey light we dream
there's a place for us... Mediterranea
yes we believe, where the white sands touch the sea
there's a space for us... Mediterranea
and we believe
yes we believe
there's a place for us... Mediterranea -
Too Bad You're So Beautiful
Here I go again
I must have flowers in my brain
the same mistake I've made before
but I'm a hostage
to that face of yours
lay me on your bed
I watch you smoke my cigarette
I wish you knew what's in my head
I could be more than just a friend
too bad you're so beautiful and so complicated
I may be a deluded fool but still fascinated
too bad you're so beautiful when I'm king of nothing
this can only go one way...ice queen on top of a mountain
give me the freeze, minus 20 and counting
my lunar dreams how do I stop them?
but it's not your problem
when you're above it all
lay me on your bed
I want to stroke your sleepy head
I wish that I was you instead
of being just your weekday friend
too bad you're so beautiful and so complicated
I may be a deluded fool but still fascinated
too bad you're so beautiful when I'm king of nothing
this can only go one wayKing of nowhere - speaks another line
in the low light I'm here to entertain
when it starts to rain I'm a lucky mantoo bad you're so beautiful and so complicated
I may be a deluded fool but still fascinated
too bad you're so beautiful when I'm king of nothing
but this can only go one way ah ahtoo bad you're so, it's too bad you're so oh oh oh oh
beautiful hmm hmm, beautiful, it's too bad, just too bad, it's too bad, beautiful, it's too bad, just too bad, it's too bad. -
Runway Runaway
At the door blowing a kiss she's
careful not to wake her sister
knowing that she will be missed
it feels a little bad girlon the corner engine running
taxi driver sees her coming
chilly in the morning sun
she seems a little sadsay goodbye, she's not afraid of leaving
no-one by her side, nothing to hang on
wave goodbye, to everything familiar
there's a world to find, runway runaway just run awaylooking back she sees the pattern
hidden princess in the attic
realise this picture that
is more than she will hope forhappy when her heart is jumping
desperately seeking something
trying to be strong enough
to choose another roadsay goodbye, she's not afraid of leaving
no-one by her side, nothing to hang on
wave goodbye, to everything familiar
there's a world to find, runway runaway just run away
runway runaway just run away
runway runaway...run away
runway runaway just run away -
Before the Rain
a stormy summer
is rolling closer
lighting up this holy smoker
and if this drinking
could ease the thinking
I toast to my home truth with this glassall rise you promises broken
call my lovers by their names
lost hearts and words that are spoken to the wind
which blows before the rainlittle pin-pricks
and how my ears bleed
on the bomb ticks that is my heartbeat
in every life-flash
in every car crash
I hear the silence waiting to fallall rise you promises broken
call my lovers by their names
lost hearts and words that are spoken to the wind
which blows before the rainfor all I carry
are murdered secrets
the price of my blue star-eyed weakness
and so we travel
and we unravel
towards the place where all loose ends goall rise you promises broken
call my lovers by their names
lost hearts and words that are spoken to the wind
which blows before the rain -
Too Close to the Sun (Bonus Track)
too close to the sun
tell-tale light in the eyes
slip into your pain … painkiller heels comatose
mighty ah high … times … ah highyou're looking out for something - some escape from
the antique dark of nothing new - automatic sky
out where the cupids dare to climb - soon these pretty feathers burn
as you' ll discover when you fly too close to the sun
too close to the sunstay while you're by
back for a night not back for long
salon … it's unfolding by the time we realise
ah highstill looking out for something - some escape from
the antique dark of nothing new - automatic sky
out where the cupids dare to climb - soon these pretty feathers burn
as you' ll discover when you fly too close to the suntoo close to the sun
are you flying too close to the sun?

Early Summer Nerves (Bonus Track)
what were the chances for me
when I spoke to her last night?
what were the chances I'd be
here lying by her side?
why does it looks so risky
hiding in the morning light?
now as the memory hits me
right between the eyes
strange nobody else can hear those fingers
tapping onat the glassdoor
with reviews of early summer nerveswelcome to Miss Adventure
oh she is a slippery slope
welcome to glamour central
where I'm hanging on a rope
who exactly am I trying to fool
with all those fancy words?
just a case of early summer nervesMID
this won't get me out of it
but finally I understand
you've got to love those early summer nerves -
