Blessed

Tonight my life is moving fast
I sit and watch the demons pass
A world I know but never seen
A fear that ripped the colour from me
I lit a candle for the day
Saw the light around your head
Walked where angels never go
Saw them shining from below

It's easy when you're blessed
With money, love and sex
You're not like all the rest
It's easy when you're blessed

And did your mother lie to you?
You got God and death confused
I can't blame it on your soul
There was nowhere else it could go

It's easy when you're blessed
With money, love and sex
You're not like all the rest
It's easy when you're blessed
It's easy when you're blessed

Blind

I've been searching for the answers
I've been diving in the sea
I've been haunted by the shadows
Of what we could have been

And its not that I'm broken
And it isn't that I bleed
But when you pulled the stars from the heavens
It got so hard to see

And where would I put my hands now?

Its over now, we had our time
Its over now, we had our time
But you leave me, blind
Will you leave me, blind

Dove for the treasures
We went deep down for the pearls
And we could have cracked it open
Yeah, it could have been so good

And where would I put my hands now?

Its over now, we had our time
Its over now, we had our time

I feel this pain, I know I'm alive
If love is wrong, then I'm doing time
I feel myself, small like a child
My love has gone, how will I survive
It's everywhere, it's in the trees
All those stars and I can't see
I'm blind, I'm blind, I'm blind

And how will you think of us
A crease along your hand
Lying at these temple doors
Beautiful and sad

And where would I put my hands now?

Its over now, we had our time
Its over now , we had our time
But you leave me, blind
Will you leave me, blind

Its in the trees
All those stars and I can't see
Oh, you leave me, you leave
You leave me, blind, blind
Ooh, you leave me, you leave me
Its in the trees
You leave me, you leave me
Blind

Home

Take me home
Send me on a ship
My life leaves me
Homesick

Home
I forget myself
Home
I can't let myself
Let myself go

Miss my baby bones
I know the way they felt
I've been aching
For mother's milk

Home
I forget myself
Home
I can't let myself
Let myself go

And I wanna be only bereft
And I wanna get smartest in my heart
Somebody to cut what I can't chew
Fill me up like it fills the room

Got my big girl
Body and shoes
Sometimes lately
Its hard to choose

Home (can't let myself go)
I forget myself
Home (can't let myself go)
I can't let myself go
Home (can't let myself go)
I forget myself
Home (can't let myself go)
I can't let myself
let myself
let myself
let myself
let myself go.

I Have The Touch
   from The Craft soundtrack

The time I like is the rush hour, 'cause I like the rush
The pushing of the people - I like it ever so much
Such a mass of motion - I do not know where it goes
I move with the movement and ... I have the touch

I'm waiting for ignition, I'm looking for a spark
Any chance collision and I light up in the dark
There you stand before me, all that fur and all that hair
Oh, do I dare ... I have the touch

Only, only wanting contact
I'm only, only wanting contact
I'm only, only wanting contact with you
Shake those hands, shake those hands
And give me the thing I understand
Shake those hands, shake those hands
Shake hands, shake hands

Any social occasion, it's hello, how do you do
All those introductions, I never miss my cue
So before the question, so before the doubt
My hand moves out and ... I have the touch

Only, only wanting contact
I'm only, only wanting contact
I'm only, only wanting contact with you
Shake those hands, shake those hands
And give me the thing I understand
Shake those hands, shake those hands
Shake hands, shake hands

Pull my chin, stroke my hair, scratch my nose, hug my knees
Try drink, food, cigarette, the tension will not ease
I tap my fingers, fold my arms, breathe in deep, cross my legs
Shrug my shoulders, stretch my back - but nothing seems to please

I need contact
I need contact
Nothing seems to please
I need contact

I'm On Fire
   written by Bruce Springsteen

Hey little boy is your mum home
Did she go away and leave you all alone
I got a bad desire
Oh oh oh, I'm on fire.

Tell me now baby is she good to you
Can she do to you the things that I do
I can take you higher
Oh oh oh, I'm on fire
Oh oh oh, I'm on fire.

Sometimes it's like someone took a knife baby
Edgy and dull and cut a six-inch valley
Through the middle of my soul.

At night I wake up with the sheets soaking wet
And a freight train running through the middle of my head
Only you can cool my desire
Oh oh oh, I'm on fire
Oh oh oh, I'm on fire.

Like A Hurricane
   written by Neil Young

Once I thought I saw you in a crowded hazy bar,
Dancing on the light from star to star.
Far across the moonbeam I know that's who you are,
I saw your brown eyes turning once to fire.

You are like a hurricane
There's calm in your eye.
And I'm gettin' blown away
Somewhere safer where the feeling stays.
I want to love you but I get so blown away.

I am just a dreamer, and you are just a dream,
You could have been anyone to me.
Before that moment you touched my lips
That moment when time just slips away,
Between us on our foggy trip.

You are like a hurricane
There's calm in your eye.
And I'm gettin' blown away
To somewhere safer where the feeling stays.
I want to love you but I get so blown away.
Yeah yeah, hi hi, yeah, blown away
Yeah yeah, hi hi, yeah.

I am just a dreamer, and you are just a dream,
You could have been anyone to me.
Before that moment you touched my lips
That moment when time just slips away,
Between us on our foggy trip.

You are like a hurricane
There's calm in your eye.
And I'm gettin' blown away
To somewhere safer where the feeling stays.
I want to love you but I get so blown away.

Ship Song
   written by Nick Cave

Come sail your ships around me
And burn your bridges down
We make a little history, darling
Every time you come around

Come loose your dogs upon me
And let your hair hang down
You are a little mystery to me
Every time you come around

We talk about it all night long
We define our moral ground
But when I crawl into your arms
Everything comes tumbling down

Your face has fallen sad now
For you know the time is nigh
When I must remove your wings
And you, you must try to fly

Come sail your ships around me
And burn your bridges down
We make a little history, darling
Every time you come around

Come loose your dogs upon me
And let your hair hang down
You are a little mystery to me
Every time you come around
