Is it something ritual
I'm caught in, can't break the spell?
Is it moving in my body
Is it biological?
I gotta hand it to you
You've got one heart ten times divided
Did you cut yourself in pieces
To get them all inside?
You dream about her, can't you see?
She's only shining bright
'cause she's so out of reach.
You dream about the seven seas
While I'm staying home each night
making love to my fidelity.
I'm rocking in my bed
I can't talk can't think can't sleep.
And nothing's jumping fences,
I only count what I cannot keep...
I lick my wounds,
I chase my instinct like a cat.
I don't know how I got so good
Or why my heart's a trap
Why I love you, why I love you
Why I love you, I don't know,
Why I love you, why I love you, why.
Taking sides with my enemy
Making love to my fidelity
I'm landlocked, stuck in here,
I don't want to take my freedom.
I can't change what makes me high
And I can't change what I believe in.
I'm not pleasing no guru
I'm not out to look for Jesus.
I'm not afraid to break the rules
It's just, one love keeps me breathing.
Why I love you, why I love you
Why I love you, I don't know
Why I love you, why I love you, why.
Taking sides with my enemy
Making love to my fidelity
Under your skin there's something beckoning;
There's something that makes me believe in you.
Behind your eyes, that's where the sacred lies;
You know I need to get through.
Oh here I go again.
Through the undergrowth again;
Feel the earth move, the planets spin
But I can't get through.
It's the spirit in you,
It's the spirit in you,
It's the spirit in you,
That I want to find.
I've seen your face; the one your mother made.
Now let me see what makes you really move.
I know you're sacred, I know it's tender there,
Just let me closer let me get through.
Oh here I go again.
Through the undergrowth again;
Feel the earth move, the planets spin
But I can't get through.
It's the spirit in you,
It's the spirit in you,
It's the spirit in you,
That I want to find.
And when you make me feel
When you make me bleed,
My lucky stars fall down on me.
You know I need to know you,
I need to see,
I need to take ahold of what's underneath.
So close your eyes, unlock your mind,
Throw off the fear, and let us fly.
Oh here I go again.
Through the undergrowth again;
Feel the earth move, the planets spin
But I can't get through.
It's the spirit in you,
It's the spirit in you,
It's the spirit in you,
That I want to find.
Look at me I'm smooth like a shell,
Put your head down
You can hear the ocean.
Hold my body - feel it roll,
So much inside and it's all been broken.
You know it's just one step and it could all be over,
You know this could rip us out at the seams.
I'm falling, it's all in your hands,
Don't let it wash away.
I'm aching, don't take it all away,
Breaking the shell again.
Look at me I'm out on the edge,
Put your hand here
See I'm bleeding.
I can't get it, get the light out -
I can't seem to tear out the feeling.
You know it's just one step and it could all be over,
You know this could rip us out at the seams.
I'm falling, it's all in your hands,
Don't let it wash away.
I'm aching, don't take it all away,
Breaking the shell again.
I am a box, I am a fish, I am a trail, I keep you warm
And I remember stripping down to meet the water,
Wading out to where the sky turns under
my insides smooth like a shell,
Like a shell...
Kiss me, kiss me under a glow-star sky;
If they're stuck on the ceiling I don't mind
It's a brittle world but it's soft inside
I'll make the milky way for you, only you,
You, only you.
And I will always ride far into the night with you,
And I will take my chances, far into the night with you.
Love me, love me, under a glow-star sky,
It's a galaxy when we get high
And sleep to the junkies' lullabies;
I close my eyes for you, only you,
You, only you.
And I will always ride far into the night with you,
And I will take my chances, far into the night with you.
I touch your face, I'm flying over fields,
I touch this moment - it's mine.
I'm an angel, I'm a parasite
I'm a vessel - I shine.
Kiss me, kiss me under a glow-star sky,
We'll be digging up soil someday, sometime,
So hold me now, hold me tight,
I'll make the milky way for you, only you,
You, only you.
And I will always ride far into the night with you,
And I will take my chances, far into the night with you.
I've been wandering,
Waiting for something to give;
I won't be a heroine -
I'm just looking for something to live by.
And there are lesions in the soil
And there are pockets of pain where the shadows lie,
And there are voices in the ocean,
And there is something in the sky.
A mother should say,
A father should say,
Look up, look down,
Keep your ear to the ground.
It's washing over me
It's spinning under me
And am I looking up at angels
Or am I really looking up at clouds passing by?
And when I say I'm listening
Why is it I only hear you when you cry?
A mother should say,
A father should say,
Look up, look down,
Keep your ear to the ground.
Keep your ear to the ground.
Keep your ear to the ground.
The bullet's deep, I'm not dreaming,
The blood I keep, while you're healing.
Have you found your second skin, your second wind?
Have you found your second skin, second wind?
You're riding high,
you won't be falling
Don't look behind; I'm still crawling.
Have you found your second skin, your second wind?
Have you found your second skin, second wind?
Ooh you could have been born to swim,
You could have been born to camouflage.
Does it pull? A ring around your finger?
Does it hurt? And does it linger on?
Have you found your second skin, your second wind?
Have you found your second skin, second wind?
Sometimes I'm an indian
Caught only by the sky,
I can't go further -
I'm going inside.
See it's like a ride
It turns you out in the night;
You're far from the road now,
But it's getting brighter.
If you don't believe it
then lose yourself and feel it,
This is the bright frontier
right now, right here;
This is the bright frontier
right now, right here.
Taking hold of what we have,
it's easy now;
we're splitting it open
te eat the seeds.
Looking in at what we have found,
it's easy now;
this big horizon,
It's you and me.
If you don't believe it
then lose yourself and feel it,
This is the bright frontier
right now, right here;
This is the bright frontier
the sky is the limit for you and me.
When you get to the top of something
Do you get that feeling?
do you get that high?
When you get to the top of something
do you get there, do you want to jump off?
Oh - we're going to keep on stretching out
We're going to ride on...
Oh I won't be your pretty baby;
I won't eat from your hand again.
And the man in the white says it's alright,
He says, come on girl give up the fight.
You'll go to sleep, there'll be no pain.
Well I want to live with myself again.
Well, where we lived there was a lighthouse,
Throwing a wild beam into our house,
Over my body when I was sleeping,
Over the secrets I was keeping,
I could tell myself there would be no pain,
But I have to live with myself again.
I'm looking for signs
And I'm shaking the dolls
And the fairy-tales lied
And somewhere, back there
I didn't understand
Man and woman and woman and man.
And I'm shaking the dolls
I'm shaking the dolls.
Ooh - the dream isn't coming through;
I can't feel for you.
Well somewhere, back there
I didn't understand;
Man and woman and woman and man,
And I'm shaking the dolls
I'm shaking the dolls.
Ooh I have to live with myself again,
I want to be with my body again,
You can't make me hollow again.
Ooh - the dream isn't coming through;
I can't feel for you.
Love, shooting up, through my veins -
I gotta get a hit again.
I'm talking to strangers
To see what I feel;
Your face is changing now
And nothing seems real.
These things I know
Are like a baby like they grow in me;
I pull them out
Just like a baby for you to see them all
I'm talking to strangers
To see what I need;
This love between us now,
How it's twisting in me.
I want to get it out,
I want to feel the breathing,
I want to really love,
I want to know the meaning,
I want to share all these things.
These things I know
Are like a baby how they grow in me
I pull them out
Just like a baby for you to see them all
