WATERBORNE TONE
ALL THE WATERS IN ITS WAYS
LOCKED UP AND NOW REPLACED
ALL THE WAVES ARE ROLLING TAME
ISOLATION IN A FRAME
NOW YOU WORKED IT OUT
NOW YOU WORKED IT OUT
ALL THE CREEKS THAT SLOWLY RAISED
KNOCKED OUT AND THEN RETRACED
TO A PLACE WITHOUT A NAME
DISSOLUTION – NO COMPLAIN
NOW YOU WORKED IT OUT
NOW YOU WORKED IT OUT
TO KEEP ME DOWN
TO KEEP ME DOWN
BRING ME MY WATER
DON´T SWALLOW IT DOWN – YOU´RE NOT ALONE
NOT SIMPLY WATER
IT´S ALL I OWN – MY INNER TONE
ALL THE RIVER-FACTORIES
RUN INTO THE AIR I BREATHE
FROM THE CHIMNEYS IN THE SKY
DISILLUSION – HIGH AND DRY
NOW YOU WORKED IT OUT
NOW YOU WORKED IT OUT
ALL THE OCEANS FALLING FLAT
AND THE VESSELS RUNNING DEAD
UPON WAVES THAT SEIZE DOMAIN
OF A PLACE DISDAINED BY RAIN
NOW YOU WORKED IT OUT
NOW YOU WORKED IT OUT
TO KEEP ME DOWN
TO KEEP ME DOWN
BRING ME MY WATER
DON´T SWALLOW IT DOWN – YOU´RE NOT ALONE
NOT SIMPLY WATER
IT´S ALL I OWN – LIKE FLESH AND BONE/MY INNER TONE
BLACKED OUT SEA
RACE THE HIGH AND LOW
PHASE OUT TO THE TANGLED FLOW
SWALLOW DOWN YOUR WOE
SHALLOW TO SORROW
WAVE ON…WAVER
SAVIOUR…SAVE HER
FACE THE LIGHT SO LOW
PRAISE THE SPANGLED GLOW
FOLLOW DOWN TO BOW
SHADOW THE SHADOW
WAVE ON…WAVER
SAVIOUR…SAVE HER
AND AS THE TOSSING WAVE CRASHED INTO THE CROWDED BOAT
YOU WERE SPIT INTO THE BLACKED OUT SEA
INTO THE BLACKED OUT SEA
NO RESCUING HAND
NO WARM EMBRACE
NO TEARS OF JOY RUNNING DOWN YOUR FACE
THE BLACKED OUT SEA
INTO THE BLACKED OUT SEA
IS WHERE WE
LET YOU AFLOAT
THE BLACKED OUT SEA
INTO THE BLACKED OUT SEA…
THE VOID
THE LIGHTS GET DARK
DECEASED THE SPARK
TO KEEP YOU LOOSE AND LOW
THIS EMPTY SPACE
LEADS OFF ITS LACE
TO CLINCH YOU OUTSIDE IN
REMEMBER MY LOVE
IN HEAVEN AND HELL
YOU’RE HOME AND DRY
REMEMBER MY LOVE
YOU NEVER CAN TELL
IF YOU DENY
ME TILL THE DAY I DIE
THE VOID TURNS COLD
FREE TO UNFOLD
AN ENDLESS NIGHT OF CALM
DEEP EMPTINESS
LACK OF CARESS
TO CLINCH YOU OUTSIDE IN
REMEMBER MY LOVE
IN HEAVEN AND HELL
YOU’RE HOME AND DRY
REMEMBER MY LOVE
YOU NEVER CAN TELL
IF YOU DENY
ME TILL THE DAY I DIE
OH NO DON’T LEAVE ME ALONE
OH NO DON’T LEAVE WITH A FROWN
OH NO DON’T LEAVE ME ALONE
OH NO DON’T LET ME DOWN
REMEMBER MY LOVE
IN HEAVEN AND HELL
YOU’RE HOME AND DRY
REMEMBER MY LOVE
YOU NEVER CAN TELL
IF YOU DENY
ME TILL THE DAY I DIE
NIGHT BEFORE THE DAWN
HEY MALONE - YOU’RE STILL WALKING AND TALKING SO ALONE
OH MALONE - ALMOST STUMBLE ON A STONE
HEY MALONE - COLD WIND KEEPS YOU FROZEN TO THE BONE
OH MALONE - NEVER DAWNED ON ME THAT SOON THERE IS A NIGHT BEFORE THE DAWN
HEY MALONE - YOU BECOME SO STRANGE SLOWLY UNKNOWN
OH MALONE - BEHIND BROKEN GLASSES AN UNIMPRUDENT MOAN
HEY MALONE - COLLECTING EMPTY BOTTLES TO AFFORD A DAILY SCONE
OH MALONE - NEVER DAWNED ON ME THAT SOON THERE IS A NIGHT BEFORE THE DAWN
IN THE NIGHT YOU’RE SAFE AND SOUND
BLOW OUT THE LIGHT PREPARE THE GROUND
OPEN THE DOOR TO FACE THE PAST
WHAT’S EVERMORE WILL FOREVER LAST
HEY MALONE - YOU’RE STILL WALKING AND TALKING SO ALONE
OH MALONE - FINALLY STUMBLE ON A STONE
HEY MALONE - COLD WIND KEEPS YOUR DOZY REMAINS AS ETERNAL PAWN
OH MALONE - NOW IT DAWNED ON ME THAT SOON THERE IS A NIGHT
A NIGHT BEFORE THE DAWN
IN THE NIGHT YOU’RE SAFE AND SOUND
BLOW OUT THE LIGHT PREPARE THE GROUND
OPEN THE DOOR TO F ACE THE PAST
WHAT’S EVERMORE WILL FOREVER LAST
IN THE NIGHT YOU’RE SAFE AND SOUND
SUCCEED THE LIGHT LET LOOSE THE GROUND
WALK THROUGH THE DOOR LIVE UP THE PAST
WHAT’S EVERMORE WILL FOREVER LAST
GRAPEFRUIT (ASTRONAUT)
NO WAY OUT, BUT IT´S OKAY - SHOUT:
COME IN, DEAR ASTRONAUT
OH, SPACEMAN, JOIN MY PLACE - THEN
PULL, PULL ME OUT OF THIS ROUNDABOUT
TAKE ME AWAY ALONG THE MILKY WAY
COME ON, DEAR ASTRONAUT
STARS CAN BE FRIGHTEN, SO ALIGHT THE NIGHT
WHY SHALL I STROLL BELOW A DARKEN CLOUD?
SET THE CONTROLS TO SPACE OUT OF TIME
LET´S LEAVE THE LOATHSOME TOWARDS THE SUBLIME
THE EAGLE LANDED CAUTIOUSLY COMMANDED
WELCOME, DEAR ASTRONAUT
THE BRIGHTEST STAR NORTH FROM HADAR
I´M JUST A LOW LIGHT IN A SHAPELESS CROWD
TAKE ON ME TO FLEE THE GALAXY
COME ON, DEAR ASTRONAUT
I WILL OBEY INSTRUCTIONS YOU ARRAY
WON´T STROLL BELOW A CLOUD OF DOUBT
SET THE CONTROLS TO SPACE OUT OF TIME
LET´S LEAVE THE LOATHSOME TOWARDS THE SUBLIME
I TELL YOU STRAIGHT, FRUIT
YOU GET NO SPACE-SUIT
WITHOUT SOME GRAPEFRUIT
YOU´LL SEE NO LIGHT, DUDE
IN UNIVERSE
THERE´S BARELY GRAPEFRUIT OUTSIDE EARTH
REMIT SOME GRAPEFRUIT
AND GET YOUR SPACE-SUIT
WITHOUT SOME GRAPEFRUIT
YOU LOSE THE RIDE, DUDE
IN UNIVERSE
I´LL NEED GRAPEFRUIT TO DETAIN THE CURSE
NO WAY, YOU CHEAT, I HEARD THE NEWS TODAY IN HEED
NASTY AWFUL ASTRONAUT
THE OUTER SPACE IS JUST A MINOR PLACE INDEED
YOU NEARLY TRAPPED ME, SHAMELESS ASTRONAUT
OH, SPACEMAN, HOPED YOU MAKE ME GREAT AGAIN
AND PULL ME OUT OF THIS ROUNDABOUT
FORGET THE GRAPEFRUIT - DISPLACED SPACE-DUDE
HERE IN THE LOW LIGHTS YOU ARE UP THE SPOUT
SET THE CONTROLS TO SPACE OUT OF TIME
RECEIVE THE LOATHSOME TO ATONE YOUR CRIME…
BLOKE
BLOKE I WILL NEVER SING THE BLUES
I AM NOT SHAKING IN MY SHOES
I DO NOT STRIP THE SPACIOUS SKY
I WILL REPLY SO PASS ME BY
IF I BREAK MY LEGS
IF I LOSE MY SEX
IF I STRAIN MY BRAIN
MY SOUL STAYS SANE IN VAIN
IF I SMELL LIKE SHIT
IF I START TO SPIT
IF YOU ERASE MY FACE
AND OBSTRUCT MY WAYS
ONCE HERE I’LL STAY UPON POLISHED FLOOR
DON’T GET SMALL THOUGH YOU SHOWED ME THE DOOR
IF I POSSESS ONLY ONE GRAIN
WON’T GO INTO THE POURING RAIN
IF I BREAK MY LEGS
IF I LOSE MY SEX
IF I STRAIN MY BRAIN
MY SOUL STAYS SANE IN VAIN
IF I SMELL LIKE SHIT
IF I START TO SPIT
IF YOU ERASE MY FACE
AND OBSTRUCT MY WAYS
NEVER LET IT FALL
NEVERMORE AT ALL
NEVER LET IT FALL
IF YOU HOPE THIS IS NOW THE END
I TELL YOU STRAIGHT MY LONELY FRIEND
BE CALM GET YOURSELF TO RELAX
I’LL NEVER LEAVE THESE CUSTOM TRACKS
BLOKE I WILL NEVER SING THE BLUES
I AM NOT SHAKING IN MY SHOES
I DO NOT STRIP THE SPACIOUS SKY
I WILL REPLY SO PASS ME BY
IF I BREAK MY LEGS
IF I LOSE MY SEX
IF I STRAIN MY BRAIN
MY SOUL STAYS SANE IN VAIN
IF I SMELL LIKE SHIT
IF I START TO SPIT
IF YOU ERASE MY FACE
AND OBSTRUCT MY WAYS
NEVER LET IT FALL
NEVERMORE AT ALL
NEVER LET IT FALL
