The Wave 03:33
You know I can't find my way out I know you can't find your way You don't have to think You don't have to You don't have to think You don't have to Rush on to the beach Rush on to the beach No one is safe here Cause it's a tidal wave It's a tidal wave Rush on to the beach Rush on to the shore Rush on to the beach oh No one is safe No one is safe Stay Out of the bay Go and betray Nothing but waste Anywhere you look And everywhere you go Stay Out of the bay Where the night is gray Out of the bay For the rest of your days After the panic and the wave You don't know what remains Who will take the blame? Who will take the blame? You know I can't find my way out I know you can't find your way You don't have to think You don't have to You don't have to think oh You don't have No one is safe here No one is safe Cause It's a tidal wave It's a tidal wave Rush on to the beach Rush on to Ohhh Rush on the beach Rush on to the shore Don't run in circle You know I can't find my way out I know you can't find your way Isn't it the right time for us to play? Let's walk on the track with our feet of clay

I woke up at night Went to my window Stared at the ocean Then I saw a light Beyond the skyline Beyond the skyline It was a boat Arriving from Hades It sailed over the Seven Seas Looking for a shelter Looking for a haven Looking for a place It smashed against invisible walls It smashed against invisible walls The wall of human nature The wall of shame The wall of humiliation The wall of anthems and flags I saw a boat Across my window Beyond the skyline Beyond the skyline Looking for a shelter Looking for a haven In the sun Looking for a haven In the sun There is no light Beyond the skyline Just a shipwreck Thousands of ghosts Floating on Floating on Floating on the water Floating on Floating on Floating on the water They smashed against invisible walls They smashed against invisible walls The wall of human nature The wall of shame The wall of human nature The wall of pain Devised for the insignificant ones Devised for the insignificant ones Devised for the insignificant ones

I'm so pleased to tell you I was wrong I'm so glad to see that I can run Through the waves Oh the waves They'll never take me down Here comes the bright light Here comes the bright light now Here comes the bright light Here comes the bright light now I'd say that the entire world has changed And yet we are exactly the same We have been Left behind Forgotten by the time Here comes the bright light Here comes the bright light now Here comes the bright light Here comes the bright light now And then I threw it all away I threw it all at once Now I'm standing by your side And I really feel small Yeah, I threw it all away And now it's been a while Since we haven't raised our eyes What a strange thing to say But I threw it all away And maybe That was it Oh maybe That was it We were on the shore For so long Clearing our souls Hoping for nothing more We were on the shore For so long Ripping our clothes But everything Comes and goes And maybe That was it Oh maybe That was it I know I threw it all away I threw it all at once Now I'm standing by your side And I really feel small Yeah, I threw it all away And now it's been a while Since we haven't raised our eyes It sounds like a strange thing to say But I threw it all away And maybe That was it

Break Alone in the dark Wait Wait one more time In such a pretty way I can touch you now I can feel you now I can touch you now Stay a little while Stay a little while Just stay a little Stay a little Stay a little while Minutes Hours And Days Minutes Hours And Days Stay a little while Stay a little while Just stay a little while Minutes Hours And Days Minutes Hours And Days Minutes Hours And Days I'm not alone I'm not alone I've got memories for all the days I'm not alone I'm not alone I've got memories for all the days I will run after you I will run after you Over the raindrops Over the rain I will run after you Over the raindrops Over the rain Just stay a little while Stay a little while Stay a little while

No I can't tell for sure If there's a riot coming along I wish I could tell, tell, tell I could tell you now What's wrong and what's going on And on and on and on Sun is shining Through your window Yeah it's shining Through your window And it's all right It's all right All right Their lies are pouring down the street Their lies are pouring down the street No I can't tell for sure If there's a riot coming along I wish I could tell, tell, tell I could tell you now What's wrong and what's going on Their lies are pouring down the street Their lies are pouring down the street Sun is shining Through your window Yeah it's shining Through your window And it's all right It's all right All right No I can't tell for sure If there's a riot coming along I wish I could tell, tell, tell I could tell you now What's wrong and what's going on No I can't tell for sure If there's a riot coming along I wish I could tell, tell, tell I could tell you now What's wrong and what's going on And on and on and on

Sometimes you're right Sometimes I get mad Sometimes you lie Sometimes we just hurt ourselves And we never calm down Anyway, Anyway Sometimes I'm wrong Sometimes we get lost In a role play But no one ever wins that game And we never calm down We'll take on the best Take on the best Take on the best We'll take on the best And leave out the rest When winter comes The water turns to ice Long snowy nights Just keep us in the midst of strife And we never calm down Anyway, Anyway All seasons pass Every river flows And after the fire Always come the ashes of hope May we never calm down We'll take on the best Take on the best Take on the best We'll take on the best And leave out the rest Let's get to the bottom of things Without getting tangled up in shades of grey Of grey Of grey Then we could set things right We could set things right We could set things right All right

Modern Life 03:25
I see you now on the top floor of your tower I see you now downsizing and delegating I see you now on the top floor of your tower Soon you'll be sleeping and others will be cleaning Soon you'll be sleeping and others will be cleaning Hey, ho, step out now Hey, ho, step out Hey, ho, back off We don't, no we don't, live in the same world We don't, no we don't, live in the same world I see you now dividing and ruling But beware... still waters run deep Oh beware... still waters run deep Hey, ho, step out now Hey, ho, step out Hey, ho, back off Hey, ho, back off You gotta pay for your modern life You gotta pay for your modern life You gotta sing some songs for the aftermath You gotta sing songs to reverse the tide And get away And get away Earnings, savings, profits and ties Investments, rates, enterprise Plastic bags, oil spill at night Buyers, sellers, products and lies Investments, rates, enterprise Plastic bags, oil spill at night Earnings, savings, profits and ties Earnings, savings, profits and ties You gotta pay for your modern life You gotta pay for your modern life You gotta sing some songs for the aftermath You gotta sing songs to reverse the tide And get away And get away

It seems you're getting somewhere after all You finally found your way out Through your silent eyes All things looked hollow Now candles and stars Sparkle in daylight You will speak You will fly You will speed up the tide You'll be lauded and praised by hundreds of strangers Hide from yourself Hide from yourself Hide from yourself It seems you're getting somewhere after all You finally found your way out At the sound of the horn You'll run away then die Over and over For a thousand times You will speak You will fly You will speed up the tide You'll be lauded and praised by hundreds of strangers Hide from yourself Hide from yourself Hide from yourself Shut your eyes and see Shut your eyes and see Shut your eyes and see

Five years Since we severed all ties Five years Now you're on your own Every once in a while your mind is drifting Every once in a while you end up thinking What happened to us? To you and I To you and I A mirage, a mirage, a mirage of us A mirage, a mirage, a mirage of us A mirage, a mirage, a mirage of us A mirage of us A feeling of loss Last night I saw you by the weeping willow You had a strange look on your face Delighted and restless Every once in a while your mind is drifting Every once in a while you end up thinking What happened to us? To you and I To you and I A mirage, a mirage, a mirage of us A mirage, a mirage, a mirage of us A mirage, a mirage, a mirage of us A mirage of us A feeling of loss
