Album: Free All Angels [2001]
| Walking Barefoot | |
|
Your beauty took my breath away, in awe all day
Your company was so relaxing, easy going ways
We saw the first signs of summer and springtime change
Walking barefoot along the sand,
I hadn't planned to stay
Yeah we've been walking barefoot all summer
It'll be sad my friend to see it come to an end
Why can't we just quit
You are broke all summer but you still sing
Don't need money when it's sunny, don't need anything
Just need music and sun and laughter and no currency
The sun on your bare shoulders, comes for free
Yeah we've been walking barefoot all summer
It'll be sad my friend to see it come to an end
Why can't we just quit
Yeah we've been walking barefoot all summer
Why can't we just design to live like this all the time
Why can't we just quit
Sand ran through my fingers and the land was hot
Anointed by apollo and his chariot
Disarmed by your charm, that night I felt it again
Addictive and consuming, loves sweet pain
Yeah we've been walking barefoot all summer
It'll be sad my friend to see it come to an end
Why can't we just quit
Our days are as the wind blows us, we are free
You've a quiet life out of town of coastal ease
The wind it has no pattern, we take life slow
And when the night has fallen, our cup overflows
When the summer's gone and the room is cold
When you're looking at the rain and it just won't go
Remember when the sun was high, up above
Remember when the days were long and we were in love
Yeah we've been walking barefoot all summer
It'll be sad my friend to see it come to and end
Why can't we just quit
Yeah we've been walking barefoot all summer
Why can't we just design to live like this all the time
Why can't we just quit

| Shining Light | |
|
roman candles that burn in the night, yeah, you are a shining light
you lit a torch in the infinite, yeah, you are a shining light
yeah, you light up my life
you have always been a thorn in their side, but to me youıre a
shining light
you arrive and the night is alive, yeah, you are a shining light
yeah, you light up my life
we made a connection, a full on chemical reaction
brought by dark divine intervention
yeah, you are a shining light
a constellation once seen, over royal davidıs city
an epiphany you burn so pretty
yeah, you are a shining light
you are a force you are a constant source,yeah, you are a shining light incandescent in the darkest night, yeah, you are a shining light
my mortal blood i would sacrifice, for you are a shining light
sovereign bride of the infinite, yeah, you are a shining light
yeah, you light up my life
we made a connection, a full on chemical reaction
brought by dark divine intervention
yeah, you are a shining light
a constellation once seen, over royal davidıs city
an epiphany you burn so pretty
yeah, you are a shining light
these are the days you often say
thereıs nothing that we cannot do
beneath a canopy of stars
iıd shed blood for you
the north star in the firmament
you shine the most bright
iıve seen you draped in a electric veil
shrouded in celestial light
SOLO OVER CHORUS CHORDS
*key change*
we made a connection, a full on chemical reaction
brought by dark divine intervention
yeah, you are a shining light
a constellation once seen, over royal davidıs city
an epiphany you burn so pretty,yeah, you are a shining light
yeah, you light up my life, yeah, you are a shining light
yeah,you light up my life

| Burn Baby Burn | |
|
Your all I have in this teenage twi-light
Your golden hair and pale blue eyes
But through all the days and the sleepless nights
We have never been satisfied.
Tumbling like the leaves
Yeah, we are spiralling on the breeze
Almost to the point of no return
Everything but, Burn Baby Burn.
Look into my tired eyes
See something you'll recognise
But you cant be un-tied
Oh this is slow suicide
Feelings that I can't disguise
And never will be reconciled
Oh something inside has died.
Walk like you're in a daze
Unresponsive eyes in the days to gaze
Not going good in the chronic ways
And it never needs a fair change.
Tumbling like the leaves
Yeah, we are spiraling on the breeze
Destructive love is all we have
Destructive love is all I am.
Look into my tired eyes
See something you'll recognise
But you cant be un-tied
Oh this is slow suicide
Feelings that I can't disguise
And never will be reconciled
Oh, something inside has died.
Vicious, bitter words
Become more and more cruel
But you always take it back
Let me eat your words.
Tumbling like the leaves
Yeah, we are spiralling on the breeze
Almost to the point of no return
Everything but, Burn Baby Burn,
Look into my tired eyes
See something you'll recognise
But you cant be un-tied
Oh this is slow suicide
Feelings that I can't disguise
We're living in a comprimise
Oh, something inside has died

| Candy | |
|
, such a joy to me
Inner city nights, I cannot sleep
Oh Candy, sweetest remedy
Only you can ease my troubled dreams
Angel, all people are the same
Caught up in bitterness and blame
Oh Candy, on dark and lonely days
I hear your voice whispering my name
Don't you know it's alright to be alone
You can make it on your own
Don't you know it's alright to be alone
You can make it on your own
Angel of the summer stars
I will always see you safe from harm
Candy, we'll never be apart
Night and day you're constant in my heart
Don't you know it's alright to be alone
You can make it on your own
Don't you know it's alright to be alone
You can make it on your own
Oh Candy, my dreams
Oh Candy, my dreams
Oh Candy, my dreams
Oh Candy
Candy, pure as driven snow
Come to me, you are not alone
Oh Candy, you're everything to me
You and I will always be free
Don't you know it's alright to be alone
You can make it on your own
Don't you know it's alright to be alone
You can make it on your own
It's alright to be alone
Don't you know it's alright to be alone
You can make it on your own
Don't you know it's alright to be alone
You can make it on your own
Don't you know it's alright to be alone
You can make it on your own
It's alright to be alone
You can make it on your own
It's alright to be alone
You can make it on your own

| Cherry Bomb | |
|
Teenage queen a sweet gamine
Immortal youth a libertine
Is she real or just a dream
My heart beats fast like benzedrine
Everytime that she walks by
Sends shivers down my spine
Makes me want to die
She is out there on her own
Perfection in her chromosones
She walks by I need to know
Her blood red lips as soft as snow
Everytime that she walks by
Sends shivers down my spine
Makes me want to die
Oh yeah, she's a cherry bomb
She's a bullet in my head
Pull the trigger and I'm dead
Uh uh uh oh, oh yeah
When she walks across the floor
Electric shock and my heart is raw
Is she real or just a dream
My heart beats fast like benzedrine
Everytime that she walks by
Sends shivers down my spine
Make me want to die
Oh yeah, she's a cherry bomb
She's a bullet in my head
Pull the trigger and I'm dead
Uh uh uh oh, oh yeah
She's a cherry bomb
She's a bullet in my head
Pull the trigger and I'm dead
She's a cherry bomb
Dream about her in my bed
Pull the trigger and I'm dead
Uh uh uh oh, oh yeah
Uh uh uh oh, oh yeah
Uh uh uh oh, oh yeah

| Submission | |
|
Sink into warm flesh
I want to taste your skin
Want to see you undressed
And see you shake your thing
You're bound and helpless
And burning from within
There for the taking
I want to hear you sing
You turn me on,
You cut me with your tongue
You take it all on, submission
You turn me on,
You cut me with your tongue
You take it all on, submission
There's nothing I won't do
Even if it's wrong
To please you
That's where I'm coming from
You warp my senses
You're coming on so strong
I gotta go down
I gotta get it on
You turn me on,
You cut me with your tongue
You take it all, submission
You turn me on,
You cut me with your tongue
You take it all, submission
Sink into warm flesh
You got me in a daze
You give me fever
You hold me in your sway
You're my addiction
For you I'd take the pain
Feel the friction
And take it all the way
You turn me on,
You cut me with your tongue
You take it all, submission
You turn me on,
You cut me with your tongue
You take it all, submission
You turn me on,
You cut me with your tongue
You take it all, submission
You turn me on,
You cut me with your tongue
You take it all, submission

| Someday | |
|
We'll leave this town
It wears us down
We'll leave somehow
All it's harm and all it's charm
Someday
Someday
We'll leave behind
All this time
That has turned sour
Far behind, out of mind
Someday
Someday
We'll leave this life
Far behind
And fade in time
We'll look down on this sad town
Someday
Safe from harm
Was it a dream I had
Was it a dream I had
When did it turn bad
Safe from harm
Was it a dream
Safe from harm
Was it a dream I had
Was it a dream I had
When did it turn bad
Safe from harm
Was it a dream I had
Was it a dream I had
When did it turn bad
Safe from harm
Was it a dream
Someday
We'll leave behind
This sad life and all it's lies
All it's harm, and all it's charm
Someday
We shall see with clarity
And we won't look back

| Pacific Palisades | |
|
You were standing on the shore
Listening to the ocean roar
Sea breeze tangled in your hair
Immortal, young and free of cares
You let the night lull you away
To dark pacific palisades
Yeah
Wait for the summer
It will come round again
It's coming down in sheets of rain
Water's running in the drains
I lie with candles by my bed
Brian Wilson in my head
Dennis Wilson, Sharon Tate
Dark pacific palisades
Yeah
Wait for the summer
It will come round again
Dragged down by the undertow
I know I can't live forever
She is fire in my soul
I know I can't live without her
All I have is in my hand
Only you can understand
Yeah
Wait for the summer
It will come round again
You were standing on the shore
Listening to the ocean roar
Sea breeze tangled in your hair
Immortal, young and free of cares
You let the night lull you away
To dark pacific palisades
Yeah
Wait for the summer
It will come round again
Wait for the summer
It will come round again

| Shark | |

Head is pounding in a daze
Bruised wrists and your body aches
If you be mine, I'll be your mirror
Glide inside, pull your trigger
Violent mind, violent mind, violent mind
Violent mind, violent mind, violent mind
I know what you wanna do, we're on the line
I know what you wanna do
Got a violent mind
I know where you're going to
Eyes black and wide
I know what you wanna do
Got a violent mind
Hedonistic, narcissistic,
Erotic, nihilistic,
Pupils wide, gonna slide inside
Gonna blow your mind
Violent mind, violent mind, violent mind
Violent mind, violent mind, violent mind
I know what you wanna do
We're on the line
I know what you wanna do
Got a violent mind
I know where you're going to
Eyes black and wide
I know what you wanna do
Got a violent mind
Violent mind, violent mind, violent mind
Violent mind, violent mind, violent mind
I know what you wanna do
We're on the line
I know what you wanna do
Got a violent mind
I know where you're going to
Eyes black and wide
I know what you wanna do
Got a violent mind
I know where you're going to
Eyes black and wide
I know what you wanna do
Got a violent mind

| Sometimes | |
|
Can't sleep in the city, you're far away
Cigarettes keep you skinny and your mind off the rain
Sometimes, sometimes,
Sometimes, sometimes.
Feelings are distant, I know guilt by name
It was the hardest thing, watching you slip away
Sometimes, sometimes,
Sometimes, sometimes.
Sometimes it happens feelings die
Whole years are lost in the blink of an eye
We once had it all but events conspired
Sometimes
Good morning sweet thing, you're safe in my hands
I am no saint, but I understand
Sometimes, sometimes,
Sometimes, sometimes.
Sometimes it happens feelings die,
Whole years are lost in the blink of an eye
We once had it all but events conspired
Sometimes
Now that it's over, it is through
It gets me every time I think of you
Sometimes it happens, feelings die
Sometimes
I miss your warm skin, beside me at night
I miss your flesh, in the dawn light
Sometimes, sometimes,
Sometimes, sometimes.
Sometimes it happens feelings die
Whole years are lost in the blink of an eye
We once had it all but events conspired
Sometimes
Saturn's decline in my star sign
Seasonal adjustments, stars realign
Sometimes it happens feelings die
Sometimes, sometimes.

| Nicole | |
|
Guilt and pain, haunting me everyday
Crushing me and I can't get away
Killing my heart and soul
Oh my Nicole
Still I don't know what to say
I'm tortured every night and day
It isn't in my control
I said no
I killed my baby but I loved her
I said no, no, no
I killed my baby but I loved her
I said no
I killed my baby but I loved her
I said no, no, no
I killed my baby but I loved her
I killed my baby but I
Snowy skies, far away still alive
Scars are healing in your mind
In your heart and soul
Oh my Nicole
I'm starting to realise
The fatal secret of my life
It isn't in my control
I said no
I killed my baby but I loved her
I said no, no, no
I killed my baby but I loved her
I said no
I killed my baby but I loved her
I said no, no, no
I killed my baby but I loved her
I killed my baby but I loved her
It's still haunting me night and day, oh my Nicole
You took a part of my life away, oh my Nicole
I relive it everyday, oh my Nicole, oh my Nicole
I said no
I killed my baby but I loved her
I said no, no, no
I killed my baby but I loved her
I killed my baby but I loved her
I killed my baby but I

| There's a Star | |
|
Tonight there's no denying, no there's no denying
There's something magic in the air
Emotional disorder, came out of nowhere
And took me unaware
The patterns of the oceans, lost in her emotions
You know that I don't care
On nights when the north wind blows through your heart
Dream of a new age
On nights when the north wind blows through your heart
All I can do is wait
There's a star in the night sky
The kind of star we would be hoping for
There's a star in the night sky
The kind of star we would be dreaming of
Cool evening falling, I can hear her calling
Cross the serpentine
Dark and chaotic, slow and hypnotic
She comes into my mind
And tonight nothing matters, no it doesn't matter
Everything will be fine
On nights when the north wind blows through your heart
Dream of a new age
On nights when the north wind blows through your heart
All I can do is wait
There's a star in the night sky
The kind of star we would be hoping for
There's a star in the night sky
The kind of star we would be dreaming of
There's a star in the night sky
The kind of star we would be wishing for
There's a star in the night sky
The kind of star we would be hoping for
There's a star in the night sky
The kind of star we would be dreaming of
There's a star in the night sky
The kind of star we would be wishing for
