You're just a frightened child in the middle of the night Lady, lady of delight Lady, lady of the night Wild dogs baying at the moon Alley cats singing out of tune Hoot of owls across the lake - These are sounds that follow her wake Don't think you can change her - I know she'll rearrange you You might disagree but just you wait and see You think you're winning but look at the state you're in Danger - stranger: Some call her goddess some call her a whore But she's a sister - a lover - a mother and more She keeps on coming - she makes it clear That if you let her in you've got nothing to fear Lady, lady of delight Lady, lady of the night --------------------------------------------------------------------- Landlord I don't want to rent a house from you I don't know how you can expect me to I ain't moving 'cause I know my rights Too many homeless on the streets at night You own a street and a block of flats You earn your living like the other rats You've no morality, what do you care You deal in poverty, you buy despair I ain't moving 'till the bailiff comes I've got no weapons, gonna get me some I ain't moving 'till the bailiff comes I've got no weapons, gonna get me some You go and call yourself a business man You're just a parasite on Pyllosan You're just a middle class middle aged shit You sold your granny for a three-penny bit You own a street and a block of flats You earn your living like the other rats You've no morality, what do you care You deal in poverty, you buy despair I ain't moving 'till the bailiff comes I've got no weapons, gonna get me some I ain't moving 'till the bailiff comes I've got no weapons, gonna get me some --------------------------------------------------------------------- Lazarus Heart He looked beneath his shirt today There was a wound in his flesh so deep and wide From the wound a lovely flower grew From somewhere deep inside He turned around to face his mother To show her the wound in his breast that burned like a brand But the sword that cut him open Was the sword in his mother's hand Every day another miracle Only death will tear us apart To sacrifice a life for yours I'd be the blood of the Lazarus heart The blood of the Lazarus heart Though the sword was his protection The wound itself would give him power The power to remake himself At the time of his darkest hour She said the wound would give him courage and pain The kind of pain that you can't hide From the wound a lovely flower grew From somewhere deep inside Every day another miracle Only death will keep us apart To sacrifice a life for yours I'd be the blood of the Lazarus heart The blood of the Lazarus heart Birds on the roof of my mother's house I've no stones that chase them away Birds on the roof of my mother's house Will sit on my roof someday They fly at the window, they fly at the door Where does she get the strength to fight them anymore She counts all her children as a shield against the pain Lifts her eyes to the sky like a flower to the rain Every day another miracle Only death will keep us apart To sacrifice a life for yours I'd be the blood of the Lazarus heart The blood of the Lazarus heart --------------------------------------------------------------------- Let Your Soul Be Your Pilot When you're down and they're counting When your secrets all found out When your troubles take to mounting When the map you have leads you to doubt When there's no information And the compass turns to nowhere that you know well Let your soul be your pilot Let your soul guide you He'll guide you well When the doctors failed to heal you When no medicine chest can make you well When no counsel leads to comfort When there are no more lies they can tell No more useless information And the compass spins The compass spins between heaven and hell Let your soul be your pilot Let your soul guide you He'll guide you well And your eyes turn towards the window pane To the lights upon the hill The distance seems so strange to you now The dark room seems so still Let your pain be my sorrow Let your tears be my tears too Let your courage be my model That the north you find will be true When there's no more useless information And the compass turns to nowhere That you know well Let your soul be your pilot Let your soul guide you Let your soul guide you Let your soul guide you Upon your way --------------------------------------------------------------------- Lithium Sunset Fill my eyes Oh Lithium Sunset And take this lonesome burden Of worry from my mind Take this heartache Of obsidian darkness And fold my darkness Into your yellow light I've been scattered I've been shattered I've been knocked out of the race But I'll get better I feel your light upon my face Heal my soul Oh Lithium Sunset And I'll ride the turning world Into another night See mercury falling |
