Losing Ground

Losing ground
Under my feet
There's a low rumbling
There's a crack in the street
It's just no good
It's just no good anymore
Everything I do
Has been done before

Yeah I found my voice
Yeah I got nothing to say
The whole thing started
Cause my mind has gone away
I used to get high
Now I just get lost
I used to bark at the moon
The first one I came across

Almost here
Almost gone

Almost here
Almost gone
Almost where
We belong

Better watch where you step
Better watch what you say
Speak the truth, baby
Believe in what you say
Believe in what you say
It's just no good anymore
It's just no good anymore

You bet I got trouble baby
You bet I got trouble baby
You bet I got trouble baby
You bet I got trouble baby

Long Time Coming

In my coat of many colours
I'm waiting for my child
I'm waiting for my journey
I'm waiting for my prize

My lord
My lord

Jesus coming running
Ah sweet Jesus run and hide
Yeah I'm on my way to heaven
Ah sweet Jesus come inside

My lord
Long time coming

If I could call my mother
Say mother dry my eyes
If he'd left me in these colours
Then he ain't no god of mine

My lord
Long time coming

Kick It To The Ground

Look at what I've found
A flower on his grave
Kick it to the ground
I've got no soul to save
Nature dealt me raw
Planted me with hate
Took my only love
To an early grave

See these eyes of envy
Bitterness it's true
I'm looking through your ashes
Looking right at you
Ten thousand years of loving
Could never set me free
From this web of hate I've woven
This chosen misery

Kick it to the ground
Kick it to the ground
Kick it to the ground

Carry scars of sorrow
But I have no regrets
And I will return tomorrow
I'm not finished hating yet
Look at what I've found
A flower on his grave
Kick it to the ground
Kick it to the ground
Kick it to the ground

Heaven

Everything's joy in heaven
And it's so good to live in this world of ours
Breathing the clean air through my lungs
Is an endless experience

Where I can go for a walk
Where I can go where I please
Where I can go for a walk
Where I can say what I please
Without being picked up by the police
Without being picked up by the police

If heaven is a place on earth
Then I must be on the moon
If heaven is a place on earth
Then I want to be getting there soon
If heaven is a place on earth
Then I must be on the moon
If heaven is a place on earth
Then I want to be getting there, getting there soon

Where I can release the tension
With the pushing of a button
Where I can release the tension
With the pushing of a button
Pushing of a button, pushing of a button

She picked the apple and gave it to him
Did she know what she was doing?
She picked the apple and gave it to him
Did she know what she was doing?

Harder

Oh oh my my my
My man's up all night
Works me till I moan
Drives me out of my mind

Why it's so hard
Must be made out of cold steel
Why it's so hard
He's a man running my wheel

Just keep me burning
Just keeps me yearning
Put my whole body on fire
Burning whole body desire

Why it's so hard
Yeah taking me over
Why it's so hard
My cold steel soldier

Harder
Harder
Harder

Oh oh make me beg
Eats meat in my bed
Works me till I'm done
Mad dog can sure hunt

Why it's so hard
Must be made out of cold steel
Why it's so hard
C'mon Daddy drive my wheel

Harder
Harder
Harder

Why it's so hard
Money made out of cold steel
Why it's so hard
He's a turning my wheel

Harder
Harder
Harder
Yeah

Darling Be There

Take me over
Pale blue water
Take me under
Take me home

Darling be there
Bring me laughter
I'll be happy
Ever more

Bring me sunshine
Bring me love
No tomorrow
He'll fall upon

Darling be there
Bring me laughter
I'll be happy
Ever more

Darling be there
Bring me laughter
I'll be happy
Ever more

Daddy

Daddy
Hold me
It seems so very dark tonight
And day

Daddy
I can't sleep
Need you to come and sing to me

That the stars
Up in the sky
Will shine down gently on the two of us tonight
And soon enough (Daddy)
It will be light (Baby)
We'll hold on tightly to each other, you and I
And I won't cry

Oh Daddy
Your baby
Is weak and calling out your name

My Daddy
Oh don't leave me
I beg you sing your song again

That the stars
Up in the sky
Will shine down gently on the two of us tonight
And soon enough (Daddy)
It will be light (Baby)
We'll hold on tightly to each other, you and I
And I won't cry (Baby)
Or call your name
And I won't
And I won't
And I won't
And I won't

Dance

Wedding night, blade knife
Shining under orange light
See him running, caught under headlight
Don't care anyway
This scar has seen better days
Get it out of my way
That's where music playing

I'll get dancing
I'm here dancing
I'm here dancing
I'm here dancing

Maggie comes fleet foot, face full of black soot
Talking that the heat put plants in the bed but
Married on Wednesday, written on Thursday
Trial on Friday, hung herself on Saturday

I'm here dancing
I'm here dancing
I'm here dancing

oh, oh, oh, oh, oh...

Time and time
I know time trickle by
Hung herself on washing line
This girl's drip dry

I'm here dancing
I'm here dancing
I'm here dancing
I'm here dancing

Bows & Arrows

I saw your face
Whiter the purity
Then I saw savages
Standing before me

Bows and arrows
Tipped with poison
Make tenderness please
Stand by my pillow

I see evil
Everytime I dream
I see earth's poison
I hear violence sing
Even your touch
Once so pure
Comes fates cold hand
On my locked door

Won't you send those angels to watch over me?

I can't catch the bow
That this planet has thrown
I can't catch this bow
On my own
In come the arrows
Like a needle

You pierce my heart
And I taste poison
You pierce my soul
With bows and arrows

Won't you send those angels to watch over me?

As Close As This

With those eyes, you could be
In movies, in the lights
And nothing gets as close as this

With those eyes, just a breath
Can send me back to Bethlehem
Nothing gets as close as this
I'm hopelessly devoted

This world's alive, this room awake
With Tigers palms and rattlesnakes
And nothing gets as close as this
I'm hopelessly devoted

Every bird is on the wing
You fill the air, you're everything
Make me run screaming down the wind
Hopelessly in love again
And nothing gets as close as this
I'm hopelessly devoted
Nothing gets as close as this
I'm hopelessly devoted

Angel

Angel, an angel has come
Angel, an angel has come
I need so, I need someone
I need so, I need someone

He's ready, look now he's ready
He's ready, ready
All of this longing just isn't heaven
Look now it's ready, it's ready, ready
Just want to be seen

The big low, the big lonely
The big low, the big lonely
Is eating not only me
Is eating not only me

I'm ready, look now I'm ready, I'm ready, ready
I'm tired of this waiting, I'm tired of pity
Look now it's ready, it's ready, ready
Just want to be seen

Falling, falling free
Falling, falling

I'm ready, look now I'm ready, I'm ready, ready
I'm tired of this waiting, I'm tired of pity
Look now it's ready, it's ready, ready
Just want to be seen

I'm ready, I'm ready, ready

97 Degrees

It's already done
I'm down on my knees
Look what you done
You've made a fool out of me

It's already too late
You've given me the taste

Look what you've done
There's no turning round
I forget today
I couldn't turn it down

It's all in the details
No reason, just face

You'd better give me some
Of the magic stuff
It's all in the thought
I'm burning up
I'm burning up

It's 97 degrees
Look what you've done
You've ruined everything

You better hurry up
With that magic stuff
It's all your fault
I can't get enough
