Thursday's Child

All of my life I’ve tried so hard

Doing my best with what I had

Nothing much happened all the same

 

Something about me stood apart

A whisper of hope that seemed to fail

Maybe I’m born right out of my time

Breaking my life in two

 

Throw me tomorrow

Now that I’ve really got a chance

Throw me tomorrow

Everything’s falling into place

Throw me tomorrow

Seeing my past to let it go

Throw me tomorrow

Only for you I don’t regret

That I was Thursday’s child

 

Monday Tuesday Wednesday born I was

Monday Tuesday Wednesday born I was

Thursday’s child

 

Sometime I cried my heart to sleep

Shuffling days and lonesome nights

Sometimes my courage fell to me feet

 

Luck old sun is in my sky

Nothing prepared me for your smile

Lighting the darkness of my soul

Innocence in your arms

 

Something In The Air

Your coat and hat are gone

I really can't look at your little empty shelf

A ragged teddy bear

It feels like we never had a chance

Don't look me in the eye

 

We lay in each other's arms

But the room is just an empty space

I guess we've lived it out

Something in the air

We smile too fast then can't think of a thing to say

 

Lived with the best times

Left with worst

Danced with you too long

Nothing left to save

Let's take what we can

I know you'll hold your head up high

We've raged for the last time

A place of no return

 

And there's something in the air

Something in my eye

I've danced with you too long

Yea

Something in the air

Something in my eye

 

Abracadoo, I lose you

We can't avoid the clash, the big mistake

Now we're gonna pay and pay

Sentence of our lives

Can't believe I'm asking you to go

 

We used what we could

To get the things we want

But we lost each other on the way

I guess you know I never wanted anyone more than you

 

Lived all our best times

Left with the worst

I've danced with you too long

Say what you will

There's something in the air

Raged for the last time

But I know you'll hold your head up high

There's nothing we have to say

There's nothing in our eyes

 

But there's something in air

Something in my eye

I've danced with you too long

Something I have to say

I've danced with you too long

Danced with you too long

Danced with you too long

Something in the air

Something in the air

 

Survive

Oh my, naked eyes

I should have kept you

I should have tried

I should have been a wiser kind of guy

I miss you

 

Give me wings

Give me space

Give me money for a change of face

Those noisy rooms

And passion pants

I loved you

 

Where's the morning in my life

Where's the sense in staying right

Who said 'time is on my side'

I've got ears and eyes and nothing in my life

But I'll survive your naked eyes

I'll survive

 

You alone across a floor

You and me and nothing more

You're the great mistake I never made

I never lied to you I hated when you lied

And I'll survive your naked eyes

I'll survive

 

Beatle boys

All snowy white

Razzle dazzle clubs every night

Wish I'd sent a valentine

I love you

 

But I'll survive

Naked eyes

I'll survive

 

If I'm Dreaming My Life

Was she never there

Was she ever

Was it air she breathed

At the wrong time

 

All the flowers so

From the gallery

With the hymns of night

Singing come to me

At the wrong time

On the wrong day

All the lights are fading now

If I'm dreaming my life

 

Just one living chance

When the mother sighs

When the father steps aside

At the wrong time

 

Was she never here

Was she ever

Was it air she breathed

At the wrong time

On the wrong day

All the lights are fading now

If I'm dreaming my life

If I'm dreaming my life

 

Was she ever

Was she ever here

 

If I'm dreaming my life

If I'm dreaming my life away

 

Dreaming my life

Dreaming my

Dreaming my

Dreaming my

Dreaming my life

Dreaming my life away

Oh-oh

 

Dreaming my life

Dreaming my

Dreaming my life away

Oh-oh

 

Dreaming my life

Dreaming my

Dreaming my life away

Oh-oh

 

Dreaming my life

Dreaming my

Dreaming my life away

 

Seven

I forgot what my father said

I forgot what he said

I forgot what my mother said

As we lay upon your bed

A city full of flowers

A city full of rain

I got seven days to live my life

Or seven ways to die

 

I forgot what my brother said

I forgot what he said

I don't regret anything at all

I remember how we wept

On a bridge of violent people

I was small enough to cry

I got seven days to live my life

Or seven ways to die

 

Hold my face before you

Still my trembling heart

Seven days to live my life

Or seven ways to die

 

The gods forget they made me

So I forgot them too

I listen to their shadows

I play among their graves

My heart was never broken

My patience never tried

I got seven days to live my life

Or seven ways to die

Seven days to live my life

Or seven ways to die

 

Seven seven seven

Seven seven seven

Seven seven seven

 

What's Really Happening?

Grown inside a plastic box

Micro thoughts and safety locks

Hearts become outdated clocks

Ticking in your mind

​

What's really happening What tore us apart

What's really happening

​

What's really happening What tore us apart

What's really happening

​

Now it's time to close our eyes

Now it's tme to say goodbye

Now it's time to face the lie

That we'd never cry

​

What's really happening What tore us apart

What's really happening

​

All the clouds are made of glass

And they're slowly sinking

Falling like the shattered past

Were we built to last?

 

What's really happening What tore us apart

What's really happening

The Pretty Things Are Going To Hell

What to wear

What to say

What to do on a sunny day

Who to phone

Who to fight

Who to dance with on a Sunday night

 

I'm reaching the very edge y'know

Reaching the very edge

Going to the other side this time

Reaching the very edge

 

You're still breathing but you don't know why

Life's a bit and sometimes you die

You're still breathing but you just can't tell

Don't hold your breath but the pretty things are going to hell

 

I am a drug I am a dragon

I am the best jazz you've ever seen

I am a dragon I am the sky

I am the blood at the corner of your eye

I found the secrets I found gold

I find you out before you grow old

I find you out before you grow old

 

What is eternal

What is damned

What is clay

And what is sand

Who to dis

And who to truss

Who to listen to

And who to suss

 

I'm reaching the very edge y'know

Reaching the very edge

Going to the other side this time

Reaching the very edge

 

You're still breathing but you don't know why

Life's a bit and sometimes you die

You're still breathing but you just can't tell

Don't hold your breath but the pretty things are going to hell

 

I am a dragon I am a drug

I am the best jazz you've ever heard

I am a dragon I am the sky

I am the blood at the corner of your eye

I found the secrets I found gold

I find you out before you grow old

I find you out before you grow old

 

The pretty things are going to hell

They wore it out but they wore it well

 

The pretty things are going to hell

They wore it out but they wore it well

 

The pretty things are going to hell

They wore it out but they wore it well

 

The pretty things are going to hell

They wore it out but they wore it well

 

You're still breathing but you don't know why

Life's a bit and sometimes you die

You're still breathing but you just can't tell

Don't hold your breath but the pretty things are going to hell

Still breathing but you don't know why

Life's a bit and sometimes you die

Still breathing but you just can't tell

Don't hold your breath but the pretty things are going to hell

 

New Angels Of Promise

New angels of promise

We despair

We are the dead dreams

We take the blame

Take us to the edge of time

Take us to the edge of time

We are the fabulous lovers

I am a blind man, she is my eyes

 

Omikron

You didn't feel us coming

In this lonely crowd

It's always time

 

New angels of promise

We despise

Don't fall apart now

We are the silent ones

Take us to the edge of time

Take us to the edge of time

We are the tabular lovers

We listen to the storm

 

Omikron

You didn't feel us coming

In this lonely crowd

It's always time

 

Brilliant Adventure

The Dreamers

Black eyed ravens

They spiral down

They tilt his head back

To the flame filled sunset

Raise their guns high

As the darken falls

These are the days boys

 

Shallow man

Shallow man...and they

Eats in the doorway

With his head inclined

And he's always in decline

No-one heals anymore

So he shrinks as they ride

Under vermilion sky

 

So it goes

Just a searcher

A lonely soul

The last of the dreamers

 

Shallow man

Shallow man

Speaks to the shadows

Moves his trembling hands

And he's always a little late

For the dawning of the day

 

So it goes

Just a searcher

Lonely soul

The last of the dreamers
