Iâm up, youâre down, little did I know
Youâll turn left, Iâll go right, which way should I go?
Fire burning blazing lights, reaping what we sow //
How can we, really heal, when facing such a wall?
Oh oh, oh oh woh
Black or white, left or right, how could I ever know?
Then I was, left behind, now I am hiding low
Fire burning, blazing lights, reaping what we sow
Rarely, have I been, so utterly distraught.
Big town, how will I ever know,
Who I can trust, Thatâs the worst of it all,
You were, you were there, hiding
Big town, how the hell will I know,
Whoâs the real deal, Who can I carry the load?
You were, you were there, hiding
Big Town, the friends and foes,
That hang around, out of sight laying low,
You were, you were there, waiting

Sailor, Save Her !

In the dark quiet night,
I didnât hear you come in
Though your footsteps were light,
We couldnât avoid colliding,
In the swell
You bruised my forehead and didnât say sorry
Itâs so unreal, we are falling, as we climb
It canât be real, we are slipping, as we stand
As you opened your eyes, we were completely blinded
Couldnât make out just why, we were the ones now stranded
Underestimating misfortune,
Weâre out of luck, who knew ?
Itâs so unreal, we are falling, as we climb
It canât be real, we are stranded, in the dark
If a sailor, saves her ?

Hey, know about that day,
everything about us changed,
Memories so quaint, now far away
Hey, I would never swear,
It was the best I could behave
Try not to forget, the mistakes we made
Hey, I donât want to play
Yet another creepy game
Where weâll get all mixed up,
and get tangled hair,
So, we can no longer, no longer not ever,
Untangle one another
Donât let me change my mind
Wonât ever be this self-inclined
Living blindfolded, we slowly declined // Reclined
Say, how could it have gone,
How could it have gone so wrong?
All these restless nights,
as I toss and turn
Still, I just canât get rid, of the pictures of your face, that camp around my bed,
Donât let me change my mind
Wonât ever be this self-inclined
Living blindfolded, we slowly declined // Reclined

All is brighter all is taller, all is easier on the moon
Now thereâs no-one around, can you hear me? Can you hear me ?
Now thereâs no-one around, can you hear me? You canât hear me ?
Itâs been a while now, since Iâve been back to my hometown, my hometown,
Itâs a long way away, you have to go through space and time, through space and time
It gets so lonely out here, no-one to listen, no-one to hear,
It gets a little bit lonely out here, no-one to talk to no one to fear
Now thereâs no-one around, can you hear me? Can you hear me ?
Now thereâs no-one around, can you hear me? You canât hear me ?
Leave it all behind
Now thereâs no-one around, can you hear me? Can you hear me ?
Now thereâs no-one around, can you hear me? You canât hear me ?

Who put a dress on the cheeky monkey ?
Dancing away like thereâs no tomorrow
Shake shake shake a cheeky wink
Forget about life and all itâs sorrow
Little monkey dressed in pink
Dancing away like thereâs no tomorrow
Shake shake shake a cheeky wink
Forget about life and all itâs sorrow
Unaware of
All the hearsay
Surrounding his appearance
Cheeky monkey a dress will wear
Whenever he does appear
He makes an entrance
Cheeky monkey does not really care.
