My Favourite Faded Fantasy lyrics - Damien Rice
You could be my favourite taste
To touch my tongue
I know someone who could serve me love
But it wouldn’t fill me up
You could have my favourite face
And favourite name
I know someone who could play the part
But it wouldn’t be the same
No it wouldn’t be the same
No it wouldn’t be the same
No it wouldn’t be the same
As with you
You could be my favourite place
I’ve ever been
I got lost in your willingness
To dream within the dream
You could be my favourite faded fantasy
I’ve hung my happiness upon what it all could be
And what it all could be
What it all, what it all could be
What it all, what it all could be
With you
What it all, what it all could be
What it all, what it all could be
What it all, what it all could be
With you
You could hold the secrets that save
Me from myself
I could love you more than love could
All the way from hell
You could be my poison, my cross,
My razor blade
I could love you more than life
If I wasn’t so afraid
Of what it all could be
What it all, what it all could be
Of what it all, what it all could be
With you
What it all, what it all could be
Of what it all, what it all could be
What it all, what it all could be
With you
Loved is all that bloomed
Always what you did
Never let someone go or they...
I ain't never loved like you
I’ve never loved I've never loved
I’ve never loved loved loved like you
I’ve never loved
I’ve never loved
I’ve never loved
To touch my tongue
I know someone who could serve me love
But it wouldn’t fill me up
You could have my favourite face
And favourite name
I know someone who could play the part
But it wouldn’t be the same
No it wouldn’t be the same
No it wouldn’t be the same
No it wouldn’t be the same
As with you
You could be my favourite place
I’ve ever been
I got lost in your willingness
To dream within the dream
You could be my favourite faded fantasy
I’ve hung my happiness upon what it all could be
And what it all could be
What it all, what it all could be
What it all, what it all could be
With you
What it all, what it all could be
What it all, what it all could be
What it all, what it all could be
With you
You could hold the secrets that save
Me from myself
I could love you more than love could
All the way from hell
You could be my poison, my cross,
My razor blade
I could love you more than life
If I wasn’t so afraid
Of what it all could be
What it all, what it all could be
Of what it all, what it all could be
With you
What it all, what it all could be
Of what it all, what it all could be
What it all, what it all could be
With you
Loved is all that bloomed
Always what you did
Never let someone go or they...
I ain't never loved like you
I’ve never loved I've never loved
I’ve never loved loved loved like you
I’ve never loved
I’ve never loved
I’ve never loved
It Takes A Lot To Know A Man lyrics - Damien Rice
It takes a lot to know a man
It takes a lot to understand
The warrior, the sage
The little boy enraged
It takes a lot to know a woman
A lot to understand what's humming
The honeybee, the sting
The little girl with wings
It takes a lot to give, to ask for help
To be yourself, to know and love what you live with
It takes a lot to breathe, to touch, to feel
The slow reveal of what another body needs
It takes a lot to know a man
A lot to know, to understand
The father and the son
The hunter and the gun
It takes a lot know a woman
A lot to comprehend what's coming
The mother and the child
The muse and the beguiled
It takes a lot to give, to ask for help
To be yourself, to know and love what you live with
It takes a lot to breathe, to touch, to feel
The slow reveal of what another body needs
It takes a lot to give, to ask for help
To be yourself, to know and love what you live with
It takes a lot to breathe, to touch, to feel
The slow reveal of what another body needs
It takes a lot to live, to ask for help
To be yourself, to know and love what you live with
It takes a lot to breathe, to touch, to feel
The slow reveal of what another body needs
What are you so afraid to lose?
What is it you're thinking that will happen if you do?
What are you so afraid to lose?
(You wrote me to tell me you're nervous and you're sorry)
What is it you're thinking that will happen if you do?
(Crying like a baby saying "this thing is killing me")
What are you so afraid to lose?
(You wrote me to tell me you're nervous and you're sorry)
What is it you're thinking that will happen if you do?
(Crying like a baby saying "this thing is killing me")
You wrote me to tell me you're nervous and you're sorry
Crying like a baby saying "this thing is killing me"
It takes a lot to understand
The warrior, the sage
The little boy enraged
It takes a lot to know a woman
A lot to understand what's humming
The honeybee, the sting
The little girl with wings
It takes a lot to give, to ask for help
To be yourself, to know and love what you live with
It takes a lot to breathe, to touch, to feel
The slow reveal of what another body needs
It takes a lot to know a man
A lot to know, to understand
The father and the son
The hunter and the gun
It takes a lot know a woman
A lot to comprehend what's coming
The mother and the child
The muse and the beguiled
It takes a lot to give, to ask for help
To be yourself, to know and love what you live with
It takes a lot to breathe, to touch, to feel
The slow reveal of what another body needs
It takes a lot to give, to ask for help
To be yourself, to know and love what you live with
It takes a lot to breathe, to touch, to feel
The slow reveal of what another body needs
It takes a lot to live, to ask for help
To be yourself, to know and love what you live with
It takes a lot to breathe, to touch, to feel
The slow reveal of what another body needs
What are you so afraid to lose?
What is it you're thinking that will happen if you do?
What are you so afraid to lose?
(You wrote me to tell me you're nervous and you're sorry)
What is it you're thinking that will happen if you do?
(Crying like a baby saying "this thing is killing me")
What are you so afraid to lose?
(You wrote me to tell me you're nervous and you're sorry)
What is it you're thinking that will happen if you do?
(Crying like a baby saying "this thing is killing me")
You wrote me to tell me you're nervous and you're sorry
Crying like a baby saying "this thing is killing me"
The Greatest Bastard lyrics - Damien Rice
I made you laugh, I made you cry
I made you open up your eyes, didn't I?
I helped you open up your wings,
Your legs, and many other things, didn't I?
Am I the greatest bastard that you know?
The only one who let you go?
Or the one you hurt so much you cannot bear?
We were good when we were good
When we were not misunderstood
You helped me love, you helped me live,
You helped me learn how to forgive, didn't you?
I wish that I could say the same,
But when you left, you left the blame, didn't you?
Am I the greatest bastard that you met?
The only one you can't forget?
Am I the one your truth's been waiting for?
Or am I just dreaming once again?
Some dreams are better when they end…
Some make it, mistake it
Some force and some will fake it
I never meant to let you down…
Some ret it, forget it
Some ruin and some regret it
I never meant to let you down
We learned to wag and tuck our tails,
We learned to win and then to fail, didn't we?
We learned that lovers love to sing
And that losers love to cling, didn't we?
Am I the greatest bastard that you know?
When will we learn to let this go?
We fought so much we've broken all the charm
But letting go is not the same as pushing someone else away
So please don't let on you don't know me,
Please don't let on I'm not here…
Please don't let on you don't love me, cause I know you do…
I know…
That some make it, mistake it
Some force and some will fake it
But I never meant to let you down…
Some fret it, forget it
Some ruin and some regret it
But I never meant to let you down
I never meant to let you
I never meant to let you down
I never meant…
I made you open up your eyes, didn't I?
I helped you open up your wings,
Your legs, and many other things, didn't I?
Am I the greatest bastard that you know?
The only one who let you go?
Or the one you hurt so much you cannot bear?
We were good when we were good
When we were not misunderstood
You helped me love, you helped me live,
You helped me learn how to forgive, didn't you?
I wish that I could say the same,
But when you left, you left the blame, didn't you?
Am I the greatest bastard that you met?
The only one you can't forget?
Am I the one your truth's been waiting for?
Or am I just dreaming once again?
Some dreams are better when they end…
Some make it, mistake it
Some force and some will fake it
I never meant to let you down…
Some ret it, forget it
Some ruin and some regret it
I never meant to let you down
We learned to wag and tuck our tails,
We learned to win and then to fail, didn't we?
We learned that lovers love to sing
And that losers love to cling, didn't we?
Am I the greatest bastard that you know?
When will we learn to let this go?
We fought so much we've broken all the charm
But letting go is not the same as pushing someone else away
So please don't let on you don't know me,
Please don't let on I'm not here…
Please don't let on you don't love me, cause I know you do…
I know…
That some make it, mistake it
Some force and some will fake it
But I never meant to let you down…
Some fret it, forget it
Some ruin and some regret it
But I never meant to let you down
I never meant to let you
I never meant to let you down
I never meant…
I Don't Want To Change You lyrics - Damien Rice
Wherever you are
Well, know that I adore you
No matter how far
Well, I can go before you
And if ever you need someone
Well, not that you need helping
But if ever you want someone
I know that I am willing
Oh, and I don't want to change you
I don't want to change you,
I don't want to change your mind
I just came across a manger
Out among the danger
Somewhere in a stranger's eye
Wherever you go
Well, I can always follow
I can feed this real slow
If it's a lot to swallow
And if you just want to be alone
Well, I can wait without waiting
If you want me to let this go
Well, I am more than willing
Oh, 'cause I don't want to change you
I don't want to change you,
I don't want to change your mind
I just came across a manger
Out among the danger
Somewhere in a stranger's eye
Oh, and I don't want to change you
I don't want to change you,
I don't want to change your mind
I just came across a manger
Out among the danger
Somewhere in a stranger's eye
I've never been with anyone
In the way I've been with you
But if love is not for fun,
Then it's doomed, 'cause
Water races,
Water races down the waterfall,
The water races,
Water races down the waterfall
And I don't want to change you
I don't want to change you,
I don't want to change your mind
I just came across a manger
Where there is no danger
Where love has eyes and is not blind
Well, know that I adore you
No matter how far
Well, I can go before you
And if ever you need someone
Well, not that you need helping
But if ever you want someone
I know that I am willing
Oh, and I don't want to change you
I don't want to change you,
I don't want to change your mind
I just came across a manger
Out among the danger
Somewhere in a stranger's eye
Wherever you go
Well, I can always follow
I can feed this real slow
If it's a lot to swallow
And if you just want to be alone
Well, I can wait without waiting
If you want me to let this go
Well, I am more than willing
Oh, 'cause I don't want to change you
I don't want to change you,
I don't want to change your mind
I just came across a manger
Out among the danger
Somewhere in a stranger's eye
Oh, and I don't want to change you
I don't want to change you,
I don't want to change your mind
I just came across a manger
Out among the danger
Somewhere in a stranger's eye
I've never been with anyone
In the way I've been with you
But if love is not for fun,
Then it's doomed, 'cause
Water races,
Water races down the waterfall,
The water races,
Water races down the waterfall
And I don't want to change you
I don't want to change you,
I don't want to change your mind
I just came across a manger
Where there is no danger
Where love has eyes and is not blind
Colour Me In lyrics - Damien Rice
I tried to repress it
Then I carried its crown
I reached out to undress it
And love let me down
Love let me down…
So I tried to erase it
But the ink bled right through
Almost drove myself crazy
When these words led to you
And all these useless dreams of living alone
Like a dogless bone…
So come let me love you
Come let me love you
And then… colour me in
Well I tried to control it
And cover it up
I reached out to console it
It was never enough
Never enough…
So I tried to forget it
That was all part of the show
Told myself I'd regret it
But what do I know
About all these useless dreams of living alone
Like a dogless bone…
So come let me love you
Come let me love you
And then… colour me in
Come let me love you
Come let me take this through the end
Of all these useless dreams of living
In all these useless dreams
All these useless dreams of living
In all these old noes
Come let me love you
Come let me love you
Come let me love you
Come let me…
Then I carried its crown
I reached out to undress it
And love let me down
Love let me down…
So I tried to erase it
But the ink bled right through
Almost drove myself crazy
When these words led to you
And all these useless dreams of living alone
Like a dogless bone…
So come let me love you
Come let me love you
And then… colour me in
Well I tried to control it
And cover it up
I reached out to console it
It was never enough
Never enough…
So I tried to forget it
That was all part of the show
Told myself I'd regret it
But what do I know
About all these useless dreams of living alone
Like a dogless bone…
So come let me love you
Come let me love you
And then… colour me in
Come let me love you
Come let me take this through the end
Of all these useless dreams of living
In all these useless dreams
All these useless dreams of living
In all these old noes
Come let me love you
Come let me love you
Come let me love you
Come let me…
The Box lyrics - Damien Rice
Don't give me something to hold in my hand
Something else to believe in
Cause I'm over it
And your reasons for wanting to stay
Your reasons for wanting to change
My reasons for everything are dull to you…
I have tried but I don't fit
Into this box I'm living with
Well, I could go wild
But you might lock me up…
And I have tried but I don't fit
Into this box you call a gift
When I could be wild and free
But god forbid then you might envy me…
So don't give me love with an old book of rules
That kind of love's just for fools
And I'm over it
And my reasons for walking away
My reasons for wanting to change
My reasons for everything are lost with you…
I have tried but I don't fit
Into this box I'm living with
Well I could go wild
But you might lock me up…
I have tried but I don't fit
Into this box you call a gift
When I could be wild and free
But god forbid, then you might envy me…
I have tried…
Into this box…
Well I could go wild…
But you might lock me up…
I have tried but I don't fit
Into this box you call a gift
When I could be wild and free
But god forbid, then you might envy me…
I could be wild and free
But god forbid, then you might…
Something else to believe in
Cause I'm over it
And your reasons for wanting to stay
Your reasons for wanting to change
My reasons for everything are dull to you…
I have tried but I don't fit
Into this box I'm living with
Well, I could go wild
But you might lock me up…
And I have tried but I don't fit
Into this box you call a gift
When I could be wild and free
But god forbid then you might envy me…
So don't give me love with an old book of rules
That kind of love's just for fools
And I'm over it
And my reasons for walking away
My reasons for wanting to change
My reasons for everything are lost with you…
I have tried but I don't fit
Into this box I'm living with
Well I could go wild
But you might lock me up…
I have tried but I don't fit
Into this box you call a gift
When I could be wild and free
But god forbid, then you might envy me…
I have tried…
Into this box…
Well I could go wild…
But you might lock me up…
I have tried but I don't fit
Into this box you call a gift
When I could be wild and free
But god forbid, then you might envy me…
I could be wild and free
But god forbid, then you might…
Trusty And True lyrics - Damien Rice
We've wanted to be trusty and true
But feathers fell from our wings
And we've wanted to be worthy of you
But weather rained on our dreams
And we can't take back
What is done, what is past
So fellas, lay down your fears
'Cause we can't take back
What is done, what is past
So let us start from here…
'Cause we never wanted to be lusty or lewd
Nor tethered to prudish strings
And we never wanted to be jealously tuned
Nor withered into ugly things
But we can't take back
What is done, what is past
So fellas, lay down your spears
'Cause we can't take back
What is done, what is past
So let us start from here…
And if all that you are
Is not all you desire,
Then, come…
Come, let yourself be wrong
Come, it's already begun
Come, come alone
Come with fear, come with love
Come however you are
Just come, come alone
Come with friends, come with foes
Come however you are
Just come, come alone
Come with me, then let go
Come however you are
Just come, come alone
Come so carefully closed
Come however you are
Just come…
Come, come along
Come with sorrows and songs
Come however you are
Just come, come along
Come, let yourself be wrong
Come however you are
Just come…
But feathers fell from our wings
And we've wanted to be worthy of you
But weather rained on our dreams
And we can't take back
What is done, what is past
So fellas, lay down your fears
'Cause we can't take back
What is done, what is past
So let us start from here…
'Cause we never wanted to be lusty or lewd
Nor tethered to prudish strings
And we never wanted to be jealously tuned
Nor withered into ugly things
But we can't take back
What is done, what is past
So fellas, lay down your spears
'Cause we can't take back
What is done, what is past
So let us start from here…
And if all that you are
Is not all you desire,
Then, come…
Come, let yourself be wrong
Come, it's already begun
Come, come alone
Come with fear, come with love
Come however you are
Just come, come alone
Come with friends, come with foes
Come however you are
Just come, come alone
Come with me, then let go
Come however you are
Just come, come alone
Come so carefully closed
Come however you are
Just come…
Come, come along
Come with sorrows and songs
Come however you are
Just come, come along
Come, let yourself be wrong
Come however you are
Just come…
Long Long Way lyrics -
Long long way to the top
Long way down if you fall
And it's a long way back if you get lost
Long way out to the end
Long way to go to lose your friends
It's a long way to haul all the traps you've trawled
When you could just stop and let go
But you say
"Not now, maybe later…
But not now, maybe later…
Not now, maybe later…"
(You're only in your way)
"But not now, maybe later…"
(You're only in your way)
"Not now, maybe later…"
(You're only in your way)
"But not now, maybe later…"
(You're only in your way)
"But not now, maybe… wait…"
(You're only in your way)
'Cause love is tough
When enough is not enough
Not enough
Not enough
Not enough…
Long way down if you fall
And it's a long way back if you get lost
Long way out to the end
Long way to go to lose your friends
It's a long way to haul all the traps you've trawled
When you could just stop and let go
But you say
"Not now, maybe later…
But not now, maybe later…
Not now, maybe later…"
(You're only in your way)
"But not now, maybe later…"
(You're only in your way)
"Not now, maybe later…"
(You're only in your way)
"But not now, maybe later…"
(You're only in your way)
"But not now, maybe… wait…"
(You're only in your way)
'Cause love is tough
When enough is not enough
Not enough
Not enough
Not enough…
9 Crimes lyrics - Damien Rice (feat. Lisa Hannigan)
Leave me out with the waste
This is not what I do
It's the wrong kind of place
To be thinking of you
It's the wrong time
For somebody new
It's a small crime
And I've got no excuse
Is that alright?
Give my gun away when it's loaded
Is that alright?
If you don't shoot it how am I supposed to hold it
Is that alright?
Give my gun away when it's loaded
Is that alright
With you?
Leave me out with the waste
This is not what I do
It's the wrong kind of place
To be cheating on you
It's the wrong time
She's pulling me through
It's a small crime
And I've got no excuse
Is that alright?
I give my gun away when it's loaded
Is that alright?
If you don't shoot it, how am I supposed to hold it
Is that alright?
I give my gun away when it's loaded
Is that alright
Is that alright with you?
Is that alright?
I give my gun away when it's loaded
Is that alright?
If you don't shoot it, how am I supposed to hold it
Is that alright?
If I give my gun away when it's loaded
Is that alright
Is that alright with you?
Is that alright?
Is that alright?
Is that alright with you?
Is that alright?
Is that alright?
Is that alright with you?
No...
This is not what I do
It's the wrong kind of place
To be thinking of you
It's the wrong time
For somebody new
It's a small crime
And I've got no excuse
Is that alright?
Give my gun away when it's loaded
Is that alright?
If you don't shoot it how am I supposed to hold it
Is that alright?
Give my gun away when it's loaded
Is that alright
With you?
Leave me out with the waste
This is not what I do
It's the wrong kind of place
To be cheating on you
It's the wrong time
She's pulling me through
It's a small crime
And I've got no excuse
Is that alright?
I give my gun away when it's loaded
Is that alright?
If you don't shoot it, how am I supposed to hold it
Is that alright?
I give my gun away when it's loaded
Is that alright
Is that alright with you?
Is that alright?
I give my gun away when it's loaded
Is that alright?
If you don't shoot it, how am I supposed to hold it
Is that alright?
If I give my gun away when it's loaded
Is that alright
Is that alright with you?
Is that alright?
Is that alright?
Is that alright with you?
Is that alright?
Is that alright?
Is that alright with you?
No...
The Animals Were Gone lyrics - Damien Rice
Woke up and for the first time the animals were gone
It's left this house empty now, not sure if I belong
Yesterday you asked me to write you a pleasant song
I'll do my best now, but you've been gone for so long
The window's open now and the winter settles in
We'll call it Christmas when the adverts begin
I love your depression and I love your double chin
I love 'most everything that you bring to this offering
Oh I know that I left you in places of despair
Oh I know that I love you, so please throw down your hair
At night I trip without you, and hope I don't wake up
'Cause waking up without you is like drinking from an empty cup
Woke up and for the first time the animals were gone
Our clocks are ticking now so before our time is gone
We could get a house and some boxes on the lawn
We could make babies and accidental songs
I know I've been a liar and I know I've been a fool
I hope we didn't break yet, but I'm glad we broke the rules
My cave is deep now, yet your light is shining through
I cover my eyes, still all I see is you
Oh I know that I left you in places of despair
Oh I know that I love you, so please throw down your hair
At night I trip without you, and hope I don't wake up
'Cause waking up without you is like drinking from an empty cup
It's left this house empty now, not sure if I belong
Yesterday you asked me to write you a pleasant song
I'll do my best now, but you've been gone for so long
The window's open now and the winter settles in
We'll call it Christmas when the adverts begin
I love your depression and I love your double chin
I love 'most everything that you bring to this offering
Oh I know that I left you in places of despair
Oh I know that I love you, so please throw down your hair
At night I trip without you, and hope I don't wake up
'Cause waking up without you is like drinking from an empty cup
Woke up and for the first time the animals were gone
Our clocks are ticking now so before our time is gone
We could get a house and some boxes on the lawn
We could make babies and accidental songs
I know I've been a liar and I know I've been a fool
I hope we didn't break yet, but I'm glad we broke the rules
My cave is deep now, yet your light is shining through
I cover my eyes, still all I see is you
Oh I know that I left you in places of despair
Oh I know that I love you, so please throw down your hair
At night I trip without you, and hope I don't wake up
'Cause waking up without you is like drinking from an empty cup
Elephant lyrics - Damien Rice
This has got to die
This has got to stop
This has got to lie down
Someone else on top
You can keep me pinned
It's easier to tease
But you can't paint an elephant
Quite as good as she
And she may cry like a baby
And she may drive me Crazy
'Cause I am lately lonely
So why d'you have to lie?
I take it I'm your crutch
The pillow in your pillow case
It's easier to touch
And when you think you've sinned
Do you fall upon your knees?
And do you sit within your picture?
Do you still forget the breeze?
And she may rise, if I sing you down
And she may wisely cling to the ground
Cause I'm lately horny
So why would she take me horny?
What's the point of this song? Or even singing?
You've already gone, why am I clinging?
Well I could throw it out, and I could live without
And I could do it all for you
I could be strong
Tell me if you want me to lie
'Cause this has got to die
This has got to stop
This has got to lie down, down
With someone else on top
You can both keep me pinned
'Cause it's easier to tease
But you can't make me happy
Quite as good as me
Well you know that's a lie
This has got to stop
This has got to lie down
Someone else on top
You can keep me pinned
It's easier to tease
But you can't paint an elephant
Quite as good as she
And she may cry like a baby
And she may drive me Crazy
'Cause I am lately lonely
So why d'you have to lie?
I take it I'm your crutch
The pillow in your pillow case
It's easier to touch
And when you think you've sinned
Do you fall upon your knees?
And do you sit within your picture?
Do you still forget the breeze?
And she may rise, if I sing you down
And she may wisely cling to the ground
Cause I'm lately horny
So why would she take me horny?
What's the point of this song? Or even singing?
You've already gone, why am I clinging?
Well I could throw it out, and I could live without
And I could do it all for you
I could be strong
Tell me if you want me to lie
'Cause this has got to die
This has got to stop
This has got to lie down, down
With someone else on top
You can both keep me pinned
'Cause it's easier to tease
But you can't make me happy
Quite as good as me
Well you know that's a lie
Rootless Tree lyrics - Damien Rice
What I want from you is empty your head
They say be true, don't stain your bed
We do what we need to be free
And it leans on me like a rootless tree
What I want from us is empty our minds
We fake the thoughts, and fracture the times
We go blind when we've needed to see
And this leans on me, like a rootless...
Fuck you, fuck you, fuck you
And all we've been through
I said leave it, leave it, leave it
There's nothing in you
And if you hate me, hate me, hate me, then hate me so good
That you can let me out, let me out, let me out
Of this hell when you're around
Let me out, let me out, let me out
Hell when you're around
Let me out, let me out, let me out
What I want from this
Is learn to let go
No not of you
Of all that's been told
Killers re-invent and believe
And this leans on me, like a rootless...
Fuck you, fuck you, fuck you
And all we've been through
I said leave it, leave it, leave it
There's nothing in you
And if you hate me, hate me, hate me, then hate me so good
That you can let me out, let me out, let me out
Of this hell when you're around
Let me out, let me out, let me out
Of this hell when you're around
Let me out, let me out, let me out
Hell when you're around
Let me out, let me out, let me out
Hell when you're around
Let me out, let me out, let me out, let me out
Let me out, let me out, let me out, let me out
Let me out, let me out, let me out
Fuck you, fuck you, love you
And all we've been through
I said leave it, leave it, leave it
It's nothing in you
And if you hate me, hate me, hate me, then hate me so good
That you can let me out, let me out, let me out
Let me out, let me out, let me out, let me out
Let me out, let me out, let me out, let me out
Let me out, let me out, let me out
Let me out, let me out, let me out
Hell when you're around
Let me out, let me out, let me out
Hell when you're around
Let me out, let me out, let me out
Hell when you're around
They say be true, don't stain your bed

Dogs lyrics - Damien Rice
She lives with an orange tree
The girl that does yoga
She picks the dead ones from the ground
When we come over
And she gives
I get
Without giving anything to me
Like a morning sun
Like a morning
Like a morning sun
Good good morning sunbr>
The girl that does yoga
When we come over
Girl that does yoga
He lives in a little house
On the side of a little hill
Picks the litter from the ground
Litter little brother spills
He gives
I get
Without giving anything to me
And the dogs they run
And the dogs they
And the dogs they run
In the good good morning sun
Side of a little hill
Litter little brother spills
Side of a little hill
Oh and she's always dressed in white
She's like an angel, man
She burns my eyes
Oh and she turns
She pulls a smile
We drive her round
And she drives us wild
Oh and she moves like a little girl
I become a child, man
She moves my world
And she gets splashed in rain
And turns away
and leaves me standing
She lives with an orange tree
The girl that does yoga
Got a wolf to keep her warm
When he comes over
She gives
He gets
Without giving anything to see
And the day it ends
And the day it
And the day it ends
And there's no need for me
The girls that does yoga
When we come over
The girls that does yoga
The girl that does yoga
She picks the dead ones from the ground
When we come over
And she gives
I get
Without giving anything to me
Like a morning sun
Like a morning
Like a morning sun
Good good morning sunbr>
The girl that does yoga
When we come over
Girl that does yoga
He lives in a little house
On the side of a little hill
Picks the litter from the ground
Litter little brother spills
He gives
I get
Without giving anything to me
And the dogs they run
And the dogs they
And the dogs they run
In the good good morning sun
Side of a little hill
Litter little brother spills
Side of a little hill
Oh and she's always dressed in white
She's like an angel, man
She burns my eyes
Oh and she turns
She pulls a smile
We drive her round
And she drives us wild
Oh and she moves like a little girl
I become a child, man
She moves my world
And she gets splashed in rain
And turns away
and leaves me standing
She lives with an orange tree
The girl that does yoga
Got a wolf to keep her warm
When he comes over
She gives
He gets
Without giving anything to see
And the day it ends
And the day it
And the day it ends
And there's no need for me
The girls that does yoga
When we come over
The girls that does yoga
Coconut Skins lyrics - Damien Rice
You can hold her hand
And show her how you cry
Explain to her your weakness
So she understands
And then roll over and die
You can brave decisions
Before you crumble up inside
Spend your time asking everyone else's permission
Then run away and hide
Or you can sit on chimneys
Put some fire up your ass
No need to know what you're doing or waiting for
But if anyone should ask
Tell them I've been licking coconut skins
And we've been hanging out
Tell them God just dropped by to forgive our sins
And relieve us our doubt
La la la la la la la...
Oh you can hold her eggs
But your basket has a hole
You can lie between her legs and go looking for
Tell her you're searching for her soul
You can wait for ages
Watch your compost turn to coal
Time is contagious
Everybody's getting old
So you can sit on chimneys
Put some fire up your ass
No need to know what you're doing or looking for
But if anyone should ask
Tell them I've been cooking coconut skins
And we've been hanging out
Tell them God just dropped by to forgive our sins
And relieve us our doubt
La la la la la la la...
And show her how you cry
Explain to her your weakness
So she understands
And then roll over and die
You can brave decisions
Before you crumble up inside
Spend your time asking everyone else's permission
Then run away and hide
Or you can sit on chimneys
Put some fire up your ass
No need to know what you're doing or waiting for
But if anyone should ask
Tell them I've been licking coconut skins
And we've been hanging out
Tell them God just dropped by to forgive our sins
And relieve us our doubt
La la la la la la la...
Oh you can hold her eggs
But your basket has a hole
You can lie between her legs and go looking for
Tell her you're searching for her soul
You can wait for ages
Watch your compost turn to coal
Time is contagious
Everybody's getting old
So you can sit on chimneys
Put some fire up your ass
No need to know what you're doing or looking for
But if anyone should ask
Tell them I've been cooking coconut skins
And we've been hanging out
Tell them God just dropped by to forgive our sins
And relieve us our doubt
La la la la la la la...

Grey Room lyrics - Damien Rice
Well I've been here before
Sat on the floor in a grey grey room
Where I stay in all day
I don't eat, but I play with this grey grey food
Desole, if someone is prayin' then I might break out,
Desole, even if I scream I can't scream that loud
I'm all alone again
Crawling back home again
Stuck by the phone again
Well I've been here before
Sat on a floor in a grey grey mood
Where I stay up all night
And all that I write is a grey grey tune
So pray for me child, just for a while
That I might break out yeah
Pray for me child
Even a smile would do for now
'Cause I'm all alone again
Crawling back home again
Stuck by the phone again
Have I still got you to be my open door
Have I still got you to be my sandy shore
Have I still got you to cross my bridge in this storm
Have I still got you to keep me warm
If I squeeze my grape then I drink my wine
'Cause if I squeeze my grape and I drink my wine
Oh, 'cause nothing is lost, it's just frozen in frost,
And it's opening time, there's no-one in line
But I've still got me to be your open door,
I've still got me to be your sandy shore
I've still got me to cross your bridge in this storm
And I've still got me to keep you warm
Warmer than warm, yeah
Warmer than warm, yeah
Warmer than warm, yeah
Warmer than warm, yeah
Sat on the floor in a grey grey room
Where I stay in all day
I don't eat, but I play with this grey grey food
Desole, if someone is prayin' then I might break out,
Desole, even if I scream I can't scream that loud
I'm all alone again
Crawling back home again
Stuck by the phone again
Well I've been here before
Sat on a floor in a grey grey mood
Where I stay up all night
And all that I write is a grey grey tune
So pray for me child, just for a while
That I might break out yeah
Pray for me child
Even a smile would do for now
'Cause I'm all alone again
Crawling back home again
Stuck by the phone again
Have I still got you to be my open door
Have I still got you to be my sandy shore
Have I still got you to cross my bridge in this storm
Have I still got you to keep me warm
If I squeeze my grape then I drink my wine
'Cause if I squeeze my grape and I drink my wine
Oh, 'cause nothing is lost, it's just frozen in frost,
And it's opening time, there's no-one in line
But I've still got me to be your open door,
I've still got me to be your sandy shore
I've still got me to cross your bridge in this storm
And I've still got me to keep you warm
Warmer than warm, yeah
Warmer than warm, yeah
Warmer than warm, yeah
Warmer than warm, yeah
Accidental Babies lyrics - Damien Rice
Well I held you like a lover
Happy hands and your elbow in the appropriate place
And we ignored our others, happy plans
For that delicate look upon your face
Our bodies moved and hardened
Hurting parts of your garden
With no room for a pardon
In a place where no one knows what we have done
Do you come
Together ever with him?
And is he dark enough?
Enough to see your light?
And do you brush your teeth before you kiss?
Do you miss my smell?
And is he bold enough to take you on?
Do you feel like you belong?
And does he drive you wild?
Or just mildly free?
What about me?
Well you held me like a lover
Sweaty hands
And my foot in the appropriate place
And we use cushions to cover
Happy glands
In the mild issue of our disgrace
Our minds pressed and guarded
While our flesh disregarded
The lack of space for the light-hearted
In the boom that beats our drum
Well I know I make you cry
And I know sometimes you wanna die
But do you really feel alive without me?
If so, be free
If not, leave him for me
Before one of us has accidental babies
For we are in love
Do you come
Together ever with him?
Is he dark enough?
Enough to see your light?
Do you brush your teeth before you kiss?
Do you miss my smell?
And is he bold enough to take you on?
Do you feel like you belong?
And does he drive you wild?
Or just mildly free?
What about me?
What about me?
Happy hands and your elbow in the appropriate place
And we ignored our others, happy plans
For that delicate look upon your face
Our bodies moved and hardened
Hurting parts of your garden
With no room for a pardon
In a place where no one knows what we have done
Do you come
Together ever with him?
And is he dark enough?
Enough to see your light?
And do you brush your teeth before you kiss?
Do you miss my smell?
And is he bold enough to take you on?
Do you feel like you belong?
And does he drive you wild?
Or just mildly free?
What about me?
Well you held me like a lover
Sweaty hands
And my foot in the appropriate place
And we use cushions to cover
Happy glands
In the mild issue of our disgrace
Our minds pressed and guarded
While our flesh disregarded
The lack of space for the light-hearted
In the boom that beats our drum
Well I know I make you cry
And I know sometimes you wanna die
But do you really feel alive without me?
If so, be free
If not, leave him for me
Before one of us has accidental babies
For we are in love
Do you come
Together ever with him?
Is he dark enough?
Enough to see your light?
Do you brush your teeth before you kiss?
Do you miss my smell?
And is he bold enough to take you on?
Do you feel like you belong?
And does he drive you wild?
Or just mildly free?
What about me?
What about me?
Sleep Don't Weep lyrics - Damien Rice
Sleep, don't weep, my sweet love
Your face is all wet and your day was rough
So do what you must do to find yourself
Wear another shoe, paint my shelf
Those times that I was broke, and you stood strong
I think I found a place where I...
Sleep, don't weep, my sweet love
Your face is all wet 'cause our days were rough
So do what you must do to fill that hole
Wear another shoe to comfort the soul
Those times that I was broke, and you stood strong
I think I found a place where I feel I will...
Sleep, don't weep, my sweet love
My face is all wet 'cause my day was rough
So do what you must do to find yourself
Wear another shoe, paint my shelf
Those times that I was broke, and you stood strong
I hope I find a place where I feel I belong
Sleep, don't weep, my sweet love
My face is all wet 'cause my day was rough
Your face is all wet and your day was rough
So do what you must do to find yourself
Wear another shoe, paint my shelf
Those times that I was broke, and you stood strong
I think I found a place where I...
Sleep, don't weep, my sweet love
Your face is all wet 'cause our days were rough
So do what you must do to fill that hole
Wear another shoe to comfort the soul
Those times that I was broke, and you stood strong
I think I found a place where I feel I will...
Sleep, don't weep, my sweet love
My face is all wet 'cause my day was rough
So do what you must do to find yourself
Wear another shoe, paint my shelf
Those times that I was broke, and you stood strong
I hope I find a place where I feel I belong
Sleep, don't weep, my sweet love
My face is all wet 'cause my day was rough
The Rat Within The Grain lyrics - Damien Rice
This would not have happened
If I hadn't missed my plane
I've would have been there when they told you
I'm the Rat within the grain
Within this big misunderstanding now
I'm being misunderstood
I think'in someones trying to fuck with me
And set fire to my wood
I wouldn't want you to want
To be wanted by me
I wouldn't want you to worry
You'd be drowned within my sea
I only wanted to be wonderful
And wonderful is true
In truth I only really wanted
To be wanted by you
It's a stupid situation now
Where everything goes wrong
If you can't tell if I am lying
Then you do not belong
In my bed
Go rest your head
Upon the bones of a bigger man
He can cover you with rock wool
And you can close up like a clam
I wouldn't want you to want
To be wanted by me
I wouldn't want you to worry
You'd be drowned within my sea
I only wanted to be wonderful
And wonderful is true
In truth I only really wanted
To be wanted by you
So go play with your piano
Write a mediocre song
Out the shell of mediocrity
And pretend there's nothing wrong
I never thought you where a chicken shit
I never thought of you at all
Until you asked me to be part of it
Now you're showing me your wall
I wouldn't want you to want
To be wanted by me
I wouldn't want you to worry
You'd be drowned within my sea
I only wanted to be wonderful
And wonderful is true
In truth I only really wanted
To be wanted by you
La la la la ……………
In truth I only really wanted
To be wanted by you
If I hadn't missed my plane

And set fire to my wood
I wouldn't want you to want
To be wanted by me
I wouldn't want you to worry
You'd be drowned within my sea
I only wanted to be wonderful

The Professor lyrics - Damien Rice
Well I don't know if I'm wrong
Cause she's only just gone
Here's to another relationship
Bombed by excellent breed of gamete disease
I'm sure when I'm older I'll know what that means
Cried when she should and she laughed when she could
Here's to the man with his face in the mud
And an overcast play just taken away
From the lover's in love at the centre of stage yeah
Loving is fine if you have plenty of time
For walking on stilts at the edge of your mind
Loving is good if your dick's made of wood
And the dick left inside only half understood her
What makes her come and what makes her stay?
What make the animal run, run away yeah
What makes him stall, what makes him stand
And what shakes the elephant now
And what makes a man?
I don't know, I don't know, I don't know
No I don't know you any more
No, no, no, no...
I don't know if I'm wrong
'Cause shes only just gone
Why the fuck is this day taking so long
I was a lover of time and once she was mine
I was a lover indeed, I was covered in weed
Cried when she should and she laughed when she could
Well closer to god is the one who's in love
And I walk away cause I can
Too many options may kill a man
Loving is fine if it's not in your mind
But I've fucked it up now, too many times
Loving is good if it's not understood
Yeah, but I'm the professor
And feel that I should know
What makes her come and what makes her stay?
What make the animal run, run away and
What makes him tick apart from him prick
And the lonelier side of the jealousy stick
I don't know, I don't know, I don't know
No I don't know, I don't know, I don't know
No I don't know, I don't know, I don't know
Hell I don't know you any more
No, no, no no...
Well I don't know if I'm wrong
'Cause she's only just gone
Here's to another relationship
Bombed by my excellent breed of gamete disease
I finished it off with some French wine and cheese
La fille danse
Quand elle joue avec moi
Et je pense que je l'aime des fois
Le silence, n'ose pas dis-donc
Quand on est ensemble
Mettre les mots
Sur la petite dodo
Cause she's only just gone
Here's to another relationship
Bombed by excellent breed of gamete disease
I'm sure when I'm older I'll know what that means
Cried when she should and she laughed when she could
Here's to the man with his face in the mud
And an overcast play just taken away
From the lover's in love at the centre of stage yeah

Quand elle joue avec moi
Et je pense que je l'aime des fois
Le silence, n'ose pas dis-donc
Quand on est ensemble
Mettre les mots
Sur la petite dodo
Lonelily lyrics - Damien Rice
I gave me away
I could have knocked off the evening
But a lonelily landed my waltz in her hands
In a way I felt you were leaving me
I was sure I wouldn't find you at home
And you let me down
Could have knocked off the evening
But you lonelily let him push under your bone
You let me down
It's no use deceiving
Neither of us wanna be alone
You're coming home [x4]
I gave me away
I could have knocked off the evening
But I was lonelily looking for someone to hold
In a way I lost all I believed in
And I never found myself so low
And you let me down
You could've called if you'd needed
But you lonelily got yourself locked instead
And you let me down
It's one thing being cheated
But you took him all the way through your bed
And now you're coming home
And I'm trying to forgive
You're coming home
And I'm trying to forget
You're coming
And I'm trying to move on
You're coming home
And you haven't called yet
You're coming home
And I'm trying to forgive
You're coming home
I'm just trying to forget
You're coming
I'm trying to move on
You're coming home
But you haven't called
You're coming home
You're coming home [x4]
I gave me away
I could have knocked off the evening
But I lonelily loomed her into my bone
You let me down
There's no use deceiving
Neither of us wanna be alone
I could have knocked off the evening
But a lonelily landed my waltz in her hands
In a way I felt you were leaving me
I was sure I wouldn't find you at home
And you let me down
Could have knocked off the evening
But you lonelily let him push under your bone
You let me down
It's no use deceiving
Neither of us wanna be alone
You're coming home [x4]
I gave me away
I could have knocked off the evening
But I was lonelily looking for someone to hold
In a way I lost all I believed in
And I never found myself so low
And you let me down
You could've called if you'd needed
But you lonelily got yourself locked instead
And you let me down
It's one thing being cheated
But you took him all the way through your bed
And now you're coming home
And I'm trying to forgive
You're coming home
And I'm trying to forget
You're coming
And I'm trying to move on
You're coming home
And you haven't called yet
You're coming home
And I'm trying to forgive
You're coming home
I'm just trying to forget
You're coming
I'm trying to move on
You're coming home
But you haven't called
You're coming home
You're coming home [x4]
I gave me away
I could have knocked off the evening
But I lonelily loomed her into my bone
You let me down
There's no use deceiving
Neither of us wanna be alone
Woman Like A Man lyrics - Damien Rice

Delicate lyrics - Damien Rice
We might kiss when we are alone
When nobody's watching
We might take it home
We might make out when nobody's there
It's not that we're scared
It's just that it's delicate
So why do you fill my sorrow
With the words you've borrowed
From the only place you've known
And why do you sing Hallelujah
If it means nothing to you
Why do you sing with me at all?
We might live like never before
When there's nothing to give
Well how can we ask for more
We might make love in some sacred place
The look on your face is delicate
So why do you fill my sorrow
With the words you've borrowed
From the only place you've known
And why do you sing Hallelujah
If it means nothing to you
Why do you sing with me at all?
So why do you fill my sorrow
With the words you've borrowed
From the only place you've known
And why do you sing Hallelujah
If it means nothing to you
Why do you sing with me at all?
When nobody's watching
We might take it home
We might make out when nobody's there
It's not that we're scared
It's just that it's delicate
So why do you fill my sorrow
With the words you've borrowed
From the only place you've known
And why do you sing Hallelujah
If it means nothing to you
Why do you sing with me at all?
We might live like never before
When there's nothing to give
Well how can we ask for more
We might make love in some sacred place
The look on your face is delicate
So why do you fill my sorrow
With the words you've borrowed
From the only place you've known
And why do you sing Hallelujah
If it means nothing to you
Why do you sing with me at all?
So why do you fill my sorrow
With the words you've borrowed
From the only place you've known
And why do you sing Hallelujah
If it means nothing to you
Why do you sing with me at all?
Volcano lyrics - Damien Rice
Don't hold yourself like that
You'll hurt your knees
I kissed your mouth and back
But that's all I need
Don't build your world around volcanoes melt you down
What I am to you is not real
What I am to you you do not need
What I am to you is not what you mean to me
You give me miles and miles of mountains
And I'll ask for the sea
Don't throw yourself like that
In front of me
I kissed your mouth your back
Is that all you need?
Don't drag my love around volcanoes melt me down
What I am to you is not real
What I am to you you do not need
What I am to you is not what you mean to me
You give me miles and miles of mountains
And I'll ask what I give to you
Is just what I'm going through
This is nothing new
No no just another phase of finding what I really need
Is what makes me bleed
And like a new disease she's still too young to treat
Like a distant tree
Volcanoes melt me down
She's still too young
I kissed your mouth
You do not need me
You'll hurt your knees
I kissed your mouth and back
But that's all I need
Don't build your world around volcanoes melt you down
What I am to you is not real
What I am to you you do not need
What I am to you is not what you mean to me
You give me miles and miles of mountains
And I'll ask for the sea
Don't throw yourself like that
In front of me
I kissed your mouth your back
Is that all you need?
Don't drag my love around volcanoes melt me down
What I am to you is not real
What I am to you you do not need
What I am to you is not what you mean to me
You give me miles and miles of mountains
And I'll ask what I give to you
Is just what I'm going through
This is nothing new
No no just another phase of finding what I really need
Is what makes me bleed
And like a new disease she's still too young to treat
Like a distant tree
Volcanoes melt me down
She's still too young
I kissed your mouth
You do not need me
The Blower's Daughter lyrics - Damien Rice
And so it is
Just like you said it would be
Life goes easy on me
Most of the time
And so it is
The shorter story
No love, no glory
No hero in her sky
I can't take my eyes off of you
I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes off of you
I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes...
And so it is
Just like you said it should be
We'll both forget the breeze
Most of the time
And so it is
The colder water
The blower's daughter
The pupil in denial
I can't take my eyes off of you
I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes off of you
I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes...
Did I say that I loathe you?
Did I say that I want to
Leave it all behind?
I can't take my mind off of you
I can't take my mind off you
I can't take my mind off of you
I can't take my mind off you
I can't take my mind off you
I can't take my mind...
My mind...my mind...
'Til I find somebody new
Cannonball lyrics - Damien Rice
Still a little bit of your taste in my mouth
Still a little bit of you laced with my doubt
Still a little hard to say what's going on
Still a little bit of your ghost, your witness
Still a little bit of your face I haven't kissed
You step a little closer each day
That I can't say what's going on
Stones taught me to fly
Love ‒ it taught me to lie
Life ‒ it taught me to die
So it's not hard to fall
When you float like a cannonball
Still a little bit of your song in my ear
Still a little bit of your words I long to hear
You step a little closer to me
So close that I can't see what's going on
Stones taught me to fly
Love ‒ it taught me to lie
Life taught me to die
So it's not hard to fall
When you float like a cannon
Stones taught me to fly
Love taught me to cry
So come on, courage, teach me to be shy
'Cause it's not hard to fall
And I don't wanna scare her
It's not hard to fall
And I don't wanna lose
It's not hard to grow
When you know that you just don't know
Still a little bit of you laced with my doubt
Still a little hard to say what's going on
Still a little bit of your ghost, your witness
Still a little bit of your face I haven't kissed
You step a little closer each day
That I can't say what's going on
Stones taught me to fly
Love ‒ it taught me to lie
Life ‒ it taught me to die
So it's not hard to fall
When you float like a cannonball
Still a little bit of your song in my ear
Still a little bit of your words I long to hear
You step a little closer to me
So close that I can't see what's going on
Stones taught me to fly
Love ‒ it taught me to lie
Life taught me to die
So it's not hard to fall
When you float like a cannon
Stones taught me to fly
Love taught me to cry
So come on, courage, teach me to be shy
'Cause it's not hard to fall
And I don't wanna scare her
It's not hard to fall
And I don't wanna lose
It's not hard to grow
When you know that you just don't know
Older Chests lyrics - Damien Rice
Older chests reveal themselves
Like a crack in a wall
Starting small, and grow in time
And we always seem to need the help
Of someone else
To mend that shelf
Too many books
Read me your favourite line
Papa went to other lands
And he found someone who understands
The ticking, and the western man's need to cry
He came back the other day, you know
Some things in life may change
And some things
They stay the same
Like time, there's always time
On my mind
So pass me by, I'll be fine
Just give me time
Older gents sit on the fence
With their cap in hand
Looking grand
They watch their city change
Children scream, or so it seems,
Louder than before
Out of doors, and into stores with bigger names
Mama tried to wash their faces
But these kids they lost their graces
And daddy lost at the races too many times
She broke down the other day, yeah you know
Some things in life may change
But some things they stay the same
Like time, there's always time
On my mind
So pass me by, I'll be fine
Just give me time
Time, there's always time
On my mind
Pass me by, I'll be fine
Just give me time
Like a crack in a wall
Starting small, and grow in time
And we always seem to need the help
Of someone else
To mend that shelf
Too many books
Read me your favourite line
Papa went to other lands
And he found someone who understands
The ticking, and the western man's need to cry
He came back the other day, you know
Some things in life may change
And some things
They stay the same
Like time, there's always time
On my mind
So pass me by, I'll be fine
Just give me time
Older gents sit on the fence
With their cap in hand
Looking grand
They watch their city change
Children scream, or so it seems,
Louder than before
Out of doors, and into stores with bigger names
Mama tried to wash their faces
But these kids they lost their graces
And daddy lost at the races too many times
She broke down the other day, yeah you know
Some things in life may change
But some things they stay the same
Like time, there's always time
On my mind
So pass me by, I'll be fine
Just give me time
Time, there's always time
On my mind
Pass me by, I'll be fine
Just give me time
Amie lyrics - Damien Rice
Nothing unusual, nothing strange
Close to nothing at all
The same old scenario, the same old rain
And there's no explosions here
Then something unusual, something strange
Comes from nothing at all
I saw a spaceship fly by your window
Did you see it disappear?
Amie come sit on my wall
And read me the story of O
And tell it like you still believe
That the end of the century
Brings a change for you and me
Nothing unusual, nothing's changed
Just a little older that's all
You know when you've found it,
There's something I've learned
'Cause you feel it when they take it away
Something unusual, something strange
Comes from nothing at all
But I'm not a miracle
And you're not a saint
Just another soldier
On the road to nowhere
Amie come sit on my wall
And read me the story of O
And tell it like you still believe
That the end of the century
Brings a change for you and me
And Amie come sit on my wall
And read me the story of O
And tell it like you still believe
That the end of the century
Brings a change for you and me
Close to nothing at all
The same old scenario, the same old rain
And there's no explosions here
Then something unusual, something strange
Comes from nothing at all
I saw a spaceship fly by your window
Did you see it disappear?
Amie come sit on my wall
And read me the story of O
And tell it like you still believe
That the end of the century
Brings a change for you and me
Nothing unusual, nothing's changed
Just a little older that's all
You know when you've found it,
There's something I've learned
'Cause you feel it when they take it away
Something unusual, something strange
Comes from nothing at all
But I'm not a miracle
And you're not a saint
Just another soldier
On the road to nowhere
Amie come sit on my wall
And read me the story of O
And tell it like you still believe
That the end of the century
Brings a change for you and me
And Amie come sit on my wall
And read me the story of O
And tell it like you still believe
That the end of the century
Brings a change for you and me
Cheers Darlin lyrics - Damien Rice
Cheers darlin'
Here's to you and your lover boy
Cheers darlin'
I got years to wait around for you
Cheers darlin'
I've got your wedding bells in my ear
Cheers darlin'
You give me three cigarettes to smoke my tears away
And I die when you mention his name
And I lied, I should have kissed you
When we were running in the rain
What am I darlin'?
A whisper in your ear?
A piece of your cake?
What am I, darlin?
The boy you can fear?
Or your biggest mistake?
Cheers darlin'
Here's to you and your lover man
Cheers darlin'
I just hang around and eat from a can
Cheers darlin'
I got a ribbon of green on my guitar
Cheers darlin'
I got a beauty queen
To sit not very far from me
I die when he comes around
To take you home
I'm too shy
I should have kissed you when we were alone
What am I darlin'?
A whisper in your ear?
A piece of your cake?
What am I, darlin?
The boy you can fear?
Or your biggest mistake?
Oh what am I? What am I darlin'?
I got years to wait...
Here's to you and your lover boy
Cheers darlin'
I got years to wait around for you
Cheers darlin'
I've got your wedding bells in my ear
Cheers darlin'
You give me three cigarettes to smoke my tears away
And I die when you mention his name
And I lied, I should have kissed you
When we were running in the rain
What am I darlin'?
A whisper in your ear?
A piece of your cake?
What am I, darlin?
The boy you can fear?
Or your biggest mistake?
Cheers darlin'
Here's to you and your lover man

I die when he comes around
To take you home
I'm too shy
I should have kissed you when we were alone

A whisper in your ear?
A piece of your cake?
What am I, darlin?
The boy you can fear?
Or your biggest mistake?
Oh what am I? What am I darlin'?
I got years to wait...
Cold Water lyrics - Damien Rice
Cold, cold water surrounds me now
And all I've got is your hand
Lord, can you hear me now?
Lord, can you hear me now?
Lord, can you hear me now?
Or am I lost?
Love one's daughter
Allow me that
And I can't let go of your hand
Lord, can you hear me now?
Lord, can you hear me now?
Lord, can you hear me now?
Or am I lost?
[chanting] Cold, cold water surrounds me now
And all I've got is your hand
Lord, can you hear me now?
Lord, can you hear me now?
Lord, can you hear me now?
Or am I lost?
And all I've got is your hand
Lord, can you hear me now?
Lord, can you hear me now?
Lord, can you hear me now?
Or am I lost?
Love one's daughter
Allow me that
And I can't let go of your hand
Lord, can you hear me now?
Lord, can you hear me now?
Lord, can you hear me now?
Or am I lost?
[chanting] Cold, cold water surrounds me now
And all I've got is your hand
Lord, can you hear me now?
Lord, can you hear me now?
Lord, can you hear me now?
Or am I lost?
I Remember lyrics - Damien Rice
I remember it well
The first time that I saw
Your head around the door
'Cause mine stopped working
I remember it well
There was wet in your hair
I was stood in the stairs
And time stopped moving
I want you here tonight
I want you here
'Cause I can't believe what I found
I want you here tonight
I want you here
Nothing is taking me down, down, down...
I remember it well
Taxied out of a storm
To watch you perform
And my ships were sailing
I remember it well
I was stood in your line
And your mouth, your mouth, your mouth...
I want you here tonight
I want you here
'Cause I can't believe what I found
I want you here tonight
I want you here
Nothing is taking me down, down, down...
Except you my love. Except you my love...
Come all ye lost
Dive into moss
I hope that my sanity covers the cost
To remove the stain of my love
Paper maché
Come all ye reborn
Blow off my horn
I'm driving real hard
This is love, this is porn
God will forgive me
But I, I whip myself with scorn, scorn
I wanna hear what you have to say about me
Hear if you're gonna live without me
I wanna hear what you want
I remember december
And I wanna hear what you have to say about me
Hear if you're gonna live without me
I wanna hear what you want
What the hell do you want?
The first time that I saw
Your head around the door
'Cause mine stopped working
I remember it well
There was wet in your hair
I was stood in the stairs
And time stopped moving
I want you here tonight
I want you here
'Cause I can't believe what I found
I want you here tonight
I want you here
Nothing is taking me down, down, down...
I remember it well
Taxied out of a storm
To watch you perform
And my ships were sailing
I remember it well
I was stood in your line
And your mouth, your mouth, your mouth...
I want you here tonight
I want you here
'Cause I can't believe what I found
I want you here tonight
I want you here
Nothing is taking me down, down, down...
Except you my love. Except you my love...
Come all ye lost
Dive into moss
I hope that my sanity covers the cost
To remove the stain of my love
Paper maché
Come all ye reborn
Blow off my horn
I'm driving real hard
This is love, this is porn
God will forgive me
But I, I whip myself with scorn, scorn
I wanna hear what you have to say about me
Hear if you're gonna live without me
I wanna hear what you want
I remember december
And I wanna hear what you have to say about me
Hear if you're gonna live without me
I wanna hear what you want
What the hell do you want?
Eskimo lyrics - Damien Rice
Tiredness fuels empty thoughts
I find myself disposed
Brightness fills empty space
In search of inspiration
Harder now with higher speed
Washing in on top of me
So I look to my eskimo friend
I look to my eskimo friend
I look to my eskimo friend
When I'm down, down, down.
Rain it wets muddy roads
I find myself exposed
Tapping doors, but irritate
In search of destination
Harder now with higher speed
Washing in on top of me
So I look to my eskimo friend
I look to my eskimo friend
I look to my eskimo friend
When I'm down, down, down.
[Opera Diva (Finnish)]
Kosketa minua [Touch me]
Halua käsilläsi [Want me with your hands]
Mua niin että tunnen sinut [So I can feel you]
Halua minua [Want me]
Halua käsilläsi [Want me with your hands]
Huuto sielussa saa [A scream within my soul]
Minä kaipaan eskimoystävää [I miss my eskimo friend]
Minä kaipaan eskimoystävää [I miss my eskimo friend]
Minä kaipaan eskimoystävääni [I miss my eskimo friend]
When I'm down, down, down.
When I'm down, down, down.
I find myself disposed
Brightness fills empty space
In search of inspiration
Harder now with higher speed
Washing in on top of me
So I look to my eskimo friend
I look to my eskimo friend
I look to my eskimo friend
When I'm down, down, down.
Rain it wets muddy roads
I find myself exposed
Tapping doors, but irritate
In search of destination
Harder now with higher speed
Washing in on top of me
So I look to my eskimo friend
I look to my eskimo friend
I look to my eskimo friend
When I'm down, down, down.
[Opera Diva (Finnish)]
Kosketa minua [Touch me]
Halua käsilläsi [Want me with your hands]
Mua niin että tunnen sinut [So I can feel you]
Halua minua [Want me]
Halua käsilläsi [Want me with your hands]
Huuto sielussa saa [A scream within my soul]
Minä kaipaan eskimoystävää [I miss my eskimo friend]
Minä kaipaan eskimoystävää [I miss my eskimo friend]
Minä kaipaan eskimoystävääni [I miss my eskimo friend]
When I'm down, down, down.
When I'm down, down, down.
Prague lyrics - Damien Rice
I pack my suit in a bag
I'm all dressed up for prague
I'm all dressed up with you
All dressed up for him too...
Prepare myself for a war
BeforeI even open up my door
BeforeI even look out
I'm pissing all of my bullets about...
Wrap myself in a bag
I'm all wrapped up in prague
I'm all wrapped up in you
I'm all wrapped up in him too
Prepare myself for a war
And I don't know what i'm doing this for
Trying to let it all go
But how can I when you still don't know?
I could wait for you
Like that hole in your boot
Waiting to be fixed
I could wait for you
What good would that do
But to leave me pricked?
Cheers darlin'
Here's to you and your lover
...darling
I got years...
Pack my suit in a bag
Pack myself in a bag
Pack my suit in a bag
All dressed up for Prague
Pack my suit in a bag
All dressed up for
All dressed up for
All dressed up for
I'm all dressed up for prague
I'm all dressed up with you
All dressed up for him too...
Prepare myself for a war
BeforeI even open up my door
BeforeI even look out
I'm pissing all of my bullets about...
Wrap myself in a bag
I'm all wrapped up in prague
I'm all wrapped up in you
I'm all wrapped up in him too
Prepare myself for a war
And I don't know what i'm doing this for
Trying to let it all go
But how can I when you still don't know?
I could wait for you
Like that hole in your boot
Waiting to be fixed
I could wait for you
What good would that do
But to leave me pricked?
Cheers darlin'
Here's to you and your lover
...darling
I got years...
Pack my suit in a bag
Pack myself in a bag
Pack my suit in a bag
All dressed up for Prague
Pack my suit in a bag
All dressed up for
All dressed up for
All dressed up for
Silent Night lyrics - Damien Rice
Silent night,
Broken night.
All is fallen,
When you take your flight
I found some hate for you,
just for show.
You found some love for me,
thinking I'd go.
Don't keep me from crying to sleep
Sleep in heavenly peace.
Silent night,
Moonlit night.
Nothing's changed.
Nothing is right.
I should be stronger then,
weeping alone.
You should be weaker then,
sending me home.
I can't stop you fighting to sleep.
Sleep in heavenly peace.
Broken night.
All is fallen,
When you take your flight
I found some hate for you,
just for show.
You found some love for me,
thinking I'd go.
Don't keep me from crying to sleep
Sleep in heavenly peace.
Silent night,
Moonlit night.
Nothing's changed.
Nothing is right.
I should be stronger then,
weeping alone.
You should be weaker then,
sending me home.
I can't stop you fighting to sleep.
Sleep in heavenly peace.
Baby Sister lyrics - Damien Rice
Don't wake up, baby sister
Keep dreaming
Did he fill your cup?
Baby sister, keep drinking
Or he'll hit you
He'll bleach your eyes
So be a good girl just for the night
And run. Run.
Don't get stuck,
Baby sister, leave this land
And read your books
Baby sister, wash your hands
Or he'll beat you
He'll bleach your eyes
So be a good girl just for the night
And run! Run! Run! Run! Run!
Run, baby sister, run
Baby sister.
Keep dreaming
Did he fill your cup?
Baby sister, keep drinking
Or he'll hit you
He'll bleach your eyes
So be a good girl just for the night
And run. Run.
Don't get stuck,
Baby sister, leave this land
And read your books
Baby sister, wash your hands
Or he'll beat you
He'll bleach your eyes
So be a good girl just for the night
And run! Run! Run! Run! Run!
Run, baby sister, run
Baby sister.
Creep lyrics - Damien Rice
(originally by Radiohead)
When you're here before
Couldn't look you in the eye
You're just like an angel
Your skin makes me cry
You float like a feather
Beautiful world
I wish I was special
So very special
I'm a creep
I'm a weirdo
What the hell am I doing ere?
I don't belong here
I don't care if you're lost (?)
I wanna have control
Wanna perfect body
Wanna perfect soul
Want you to know this
I'm not around
So very special
I wish I was special
I'm a creep
I'm a weirdo
What the hell am I doing here?
I don't belong here
[ad lib]
Whatever makes you happy
Whatever you want
So very special
I wish I was special
I'm a creep
I'm a weeirdo
What the hell am I don't here?
I don't belong here
I don't belong here
When you're here before
Couldn't look you in the eye
You're just like an angel
Your skin makes me cry
You float like a feather
Beautiful world
I wish I was special
So very special
I'm a creep
I'm a weirdo
What the hell am I doing ere?
I don't belong here
I don't care if you're lost (?)
I wanna have control
Wanna perfect body
Wanna perfect soul
Want you to know this
I'm not around
So very special
I wish I was special
I'm a creep
I'm a weirdo
What the hell am I doing here?
I don't belong here
[ad lib]
Whatever makes you happy
Whatever you want
So very special
I wish I was special
I'm a creep
I'm a weeirdo
What the hell am I don't here?
I don't belong here
I don't belong here
Cross-Eyed Bear lyrics - Damien Rice
I broke your doll
It's cross-eyed, that's all
I wanted to help it see straight
Half broken moon, sooner than soon
I was up on your wall, smaller than small
In a half painted frame, wood wooden stain
I hope that reminds you of the part you couldn't change in me
If you push me, I fall
If you pull me, I drown
If you're gonna be nailing me down
I won't rise again
I scratched your car
Where a bird left a stain
I wanted to help you see straight
Half broken moon, sooner than soon
I was up on your wall, smaller than small
In a half painted frame, with a wood wooden stain
I hope that reminds you of the part you couldn't change in me
If you push me, I fall
If you pull me, I drown
If you're gonna be nailing me down
I won't rise again
I won't rise again
I'm not God, I'm not God
Well I'm not God, I'm not God
I might love you, but I'm not God
It's cross-eyed, that's all
I wanted to help it see straight
Half broken moon, sooner than soon
I was up on your wall, smaller than small
In a half painted frame, wood wooden stain
I hope that reminds you of the part you couldn't change in me
If you push me, I fall
If you pull me, I drown
If you're gonna be nailing me down
I won't rise again
I scratched your car
Where a bird left a stain
I wanted to help you see straight
Half broken moon, sooner than soon
I was up on your wall, smaller than small
In a half painted frame, with a wood wooden stain
I hope that reminds you of the part you couldn't change in me
If you push me, I fall
If you pull me, I drown
If you're gonna be nailing me down
I won't rise again
I won't rise again
I'm not God, I'm not God
Well I'm not God, I'm not God
I might love you, but I'm not God
Greatest Bastard lyrics - Damien Rice
I made you laugh, I made you cry
I made you open up your eyes
Didn't I?
I helped you open out your wings,
your legs, and many other things
Didn't I?
Am I the greatest bastard that you know?
The only one who let you go?
The one you hurt so much you cannot bear?
Well we were good, when we were good
When we were not misunderstood
You helped me love, you helped me live
You helped me learn how to forgive
Didn't you?
I wish that I could say the same
But when you left, you left the blame
Didn't you?
Am I the greatest bastard that you met?
The only one you can't forget?
Am I the one your truth's been waiting for?
Or am I just dreaming once again?
Some dreams are better when they end
Some make it, mistake it
Some force and some will fake it
I never meant to let you down
Some fret it, forget it
Some ruin and some regret it
I never meant to let you down
We learn to wag and tuck our tails
We learn to win and then to fail
Didn't we?
We learn that lovers love to sing
And that losers love to cling
Didn't we?
Am I the greatest bastard that you know?
When will we learn to let this go?
We fought so much, we've broken all the charm
But letting go is not the same
As pushing someone else away
So please don't let on
You don't know me
Please don't let on
I'm not here
Please don't let on
You don't love me
'Cause I know you do
I know
That some make it, mistake it
Some force and some will fake it
I never meant to let you down
Some fret it, forget it
Some ruin and some regret it
I never meant to let you down
I never meant to let you
I never meant to let you down
I never meant
I made you open up your eyes
Didn't I?
I helped you open out your wings,
your legs, and many other things
Didn't I?
Am I the greatest bastard that you know?
The only one who let you go?
The one you hurt so much you cannot bear?
Well we were good, when we were good
When we were not misunderstood
You helped me love, you helped me live
You helped me learn how to forgive
Didn't you?
I wish that I could say the same
But when you left, you left the blame
Didn't you?
Am I the greatest bastard that you met?
The only one you can't forget?
Am I the one your truth's been waiting for?
Or am I just dreaming once again?
Some dreams are better when they end
Some make it, mistake it
Some force and some will fake it
I never meant to let you down
Some fret it, forget it
Some ruin and some regret it
I never meant to let you down
We learn to wag and tuck our tails
We learn to win and then to fail
Didn't we?
We learn that lovers love to sing
And that losers love to cling
Didn't we?
Am I the greatest bastard that you know?
When will we learn to let this go?
We fought so much, we've broken all the charm
But letting go is not the same
As pushing someone else away
So please don't let on
You don't know me
Please don't let on
I'm not here
Please don't let on
You don't love me
'Cause I know you do
I know
That some make it, mistake it
Some force and some will fake it
I never meant to let you down
Some fret it, forget it
Some ruin and some regret it
I never meant to let you down
I never meant to let you
I never meant to let you down
I never meant
Hypnosis lyrics - Damien Rice
[from "Kahlil Gibran's The Prophet" soundtrack]
When you know who you are,
And can see through your veils,
Your old fears become wind in your sails,
Then your heart heat unfurled,
From the hypnosis of your world,
When you know who you are,
The darkness the light, love loves it all,
Cause love has no fight, what has passed is a dream,
What is not here is not what it seems,
So pull yourself together now,
So pull yourself together now,
When you know who you are and have nothing to hide,
Loves at your feet and the hands at your side,
When yours ears are your words,
The silence can always be heard,
When you know who you are,
You can't help but let go,
You know no ones right,
You know you don't know,
The paradox becomes less absurd,
As your hypnosis unwhirls,
So pull yourself together now,
So pull yourself together now,
What's the matter with,
What's the matter with,
What's the matter with you,
Did it crush, did it shatter? did it break or scatter?
Did it tear your little heart in two?
What's done is over,
Yeah if you want something new,
Just pull yourself together now,
Just pull yourself together now,
Just pull yourself together now,
Just pull yourself together now,
All I have is all I need, and all I need is here now
When you know who you are,
And can see through your veils,
Your old fears become wind in your sails,
Then your heart heat unfurled,
From the hypnosis of your world,
When you know who you are,
The darkness the light, love loves it all,
Cause love has no fight, what has passed is a dream,
What is not here is not what it seems,
So pull yourself together now,
So pull yourself together now,
When you know who you are and have nothing to hide,
Loves at your feet and the hands at your side,
When yours ears are your words,
The silence can always be heard,
When you know who you are,
You can't help but let go,
You know no ones right,
You know you don't know,
The paradox becomes less absurd,
As your hypnosis unwhirls,
So pull yourself together now,
So pull yourself together now,
What's the matter with,
What's the matter with,
What's the matter with you,
Did it crush, did it shatter? did it break or scatter?
Did it tear your little heart in two?
What's done is over,
Yeah if you want something new,
Just pull yourself together now,
Just pull yourself together now,
Just pull yourself together now,
Just pull yourself together now,
All I have is all I need, and all I need is here now
Lonely Soldier lyrics - Damien Rice
Lonely soldier go home
Lonely, but never alone
Good eyes see nothing to shoot
Good feet feel good given up good boots
Ask your father how do ya fall
Like a leave sitting on the ground
Good for nothing except kicking around
She died with her hand stretched out
She died with a hungry mouth
She died with a mind full of doubt
(And a pulse of weakening)
So may river never dry
May your mouth never lie
May you be satisfied to never know why
Sometimes, someone just wants to die
Where'd you get those cuts in your hand
I thought I told 'bout playing in the sand
There's always someone carelessly class
There's always questions no one asks
She died with her hand stretched out
She died with a hungry mouth
She died with a mind full of doubt
(And a pulse of weakening)
May river never dry
May your mouth never lie
May you be satisfied to never know why
Sometimes, someone just wants to die
Lonely soldier go home
Lonely, but never alone
Good eyes see nothing to shoot
Good feet feel good given up good boots
Lonely, but never alone
Good eyes see nothing to shoot
Good feet feel good given up good boots
Ask your father how do ya fall
Like a leave sitting on the ground
Good for nothing except kicking around
She died with her hand stretched out
She died with a hungry mouth
She died with a mind full of doubt
(And a pulse of weakening)
So may river never dry
May your mouth never lie
May you be satisfied to never know why
Sometimes, someone just wants to die
Where'd you get those cuts in your hand
I thought I told 'bout playing in the sand
There's always someone carelessly class
There's always questions no one asks
She died with her hand stretched out
She died with a hungry mouth
She died with a mind full of doubt
(And a pulse of weakening)
May river never dry
May your mouth never lie
May you be satisfied to never know why
Sometimes, someone just wants to die
Lonely soldier go home
Lonely, but never alone
Good eyes see nothing to shoot
Good feet feel good given up good boots

Never & Always On My Mind lyrics - Damien Rice
You left it.
I sent it.
I want it back.
You left it.
I sent it.
I want it back.
If I had you here
I'd clip your wings,
Snap you up,
And leave you sprawling
On my pin.
This plan of mine
Is Oh so very lame.
Can't you see
The grass is greener
Where it rains?
And you left...
I died.
I went...
And you cried.
You came...
I think.
But I never really know.
Now I've served my time.
I've watched you climb
The wrong incline.
But you never really know.
Accept it.
Don't let it
Fuck you up.
Accept it.
Don't let it
Fuck you up.
This applies equally
To you and I...
The only thing
We've shared
Is the same sky.
These empty metaphors...
They're all in vain.
Can't you see
The grass is greener
Where it rains?
And you left...
I died.
I went...
You cried.
You came...
I think.
But I never really know.
Now I've served my time.
I've watched you climb
The wrong...
You left it.
I sent it.
I want it back.
You never really know.
Accept it...
Don't let it
Fuck you up.
You never really know.
You left...
I died.
I went...
You cried.
You came...
I think.
You never really know.
I've served my time.
I've watched you climb
The wrong incline.
You never really know.
You never really know.
Maybe I didn't hold you
Quite as good as I should have
And I guess I never told you
Quite as often as I could have
Little things I should have said and done
I just never took the time
You were always on my mind
You were always on my mind
Tell me, tell me that your sweet love hasn't died
Give me, give me one more chance
To keep you satisfied
You never really know
You never really know
I sent it.
I want it back.
You left it.
I sent it.
I want it back.
If I had you here
I'd clip your wings,
Snap you up,
And leave you sprawling
On my pin.
This plan of mine
Is Oh so very lame.
Can't you see
The grass is greener
Where it rains?
And you left...
I died.
I went...
And you cried.
You came...

But I never really know.
Now I've served my time.
I've watched you climb

Sand lyrics - Damien Rice
Keep me in a glass jar sealed with a label
You think you know my world, wake up young girl
And take a thrust of lust if you must now
You've got a lot to learn, yeah
My love, my life, my work, my time
I give them all to you
Your hand in mine, we walk, we talk in rhyme
We go the whole night through, yeah
But I am not a grain of sand
I don't care what's written in your hand
'Cause it's bound to change, yeah
Sore, bored, and I'm lost, cost, cold
Getting older
Wrap it up, rip it up now, have it sold
I'm a grower

But you tease me
And it shows in the way that you play, yeah
You think you know my love
Wake up young girl
And take a taste, not a bite of a life, now
Can tell you'll never come, yeah well
My will, my mind, my lips, my lines
I've got them all over you
Your taste combined with all the years of wasting time
I gotta hold onto something new
I am not a grain of sand
I don't care what's written in your hand
'Cause it's bound to change, yeah

But I don't wanna pray for what is not right
And I don't wanna beg for what is not mine
I don't wanna run the road between dreams and worthy things
I could charge, I could really try
But I don't wanna be the brave one in a senseless fight
No I, I said I, I said I
I just wanna be here tonight

The Connoisseur Of Great Excuse lyrics - Damien Rice
Of all the foolish things to do
I became a connoisseur of great excuse
And my pessimistic past the blame
Will never make this go away
Of all the foolish things I've said
That keep me sleepy almost dead
I'm sorry if I've let you down
My eyes were closed, they're open now
I'm waking up
I am waking up
I am waking up
I awake
And this has all been said before
I've listened but then I ignored
My ears grew deaf
My head gave up
The junkie knows not when to stop
Of all the foolish alibis
The constipated push for why
I've had a blanket pulled over my eyes
Oh hush now baby don't you cry
I'm waking up
I am waking up
I am waking up
I'm awake
Coming
I am waking up
I'm ready
I am waking up
Dada da da da daaa
I became a connoisseur of great excuse
And my pessimistic past the blame
Will never make this go away
Of all the foolish things I've said
That keep me sleepy almost dead
I'm sorry if I've let you down
My eyes were closed, they're open now
I'm waking up
I am waking up
I am waking up
I awake
And this has all been said before
I've listened but then I ignored
My ears grew deaf
My head gave up
The junkie knows not when to stop
Of all the foolish alibis
The constipated push for why
I've had a blanket pulled over my eyes
Oh hush now baby don't you cry
I'm waking up
I am waking up
I am waking up
I'm awake
Coming
I am waking up
I'm ready
I am waking up
Dada da da da daaa
Unplayed Piano lyrics - Damien Rice (with Lisa Hannigan)
Come and see me
Sing me to sleep
Come and free me
Hold me if I need to weep
Maybe it's not the season
Maybe it's not the year
Maybe there's no good reason
Why I'm locked up inside
Just cause they wanna hide me
The moon goes bright
The darker they make my night
Unplayed pianos are often by a window
In a room where nobody loved goes
She sits alone with her silent song
Somebody bring her home
Unplayed piano (unplayed piano)
Still holds a tune (still holds a tune)
Lock on the lid (years, years pass by)
In a stale, stale room (in the changing of the moon)
Maybe it's not that easy (through the only window)
Or maybe it's not that hard (in a stale, stale room)
Maybe they could release me (stale, stale room)
Let the people decide
I've got nothing to hide
I've done nothing wrong
So why have I been here so long?
Unplayed pianos are often by a window
In a room where nobody loved goes
She sits alone with her silent song
Somebody bring her home
Unplayed pianos are often by a window
In a room where nobody loved goes
She sits alone with her silent song
Somebody bring her home
Unplayed piano
Still holds a tune
Years pass by
In the changing of the moon
Sing me to sleep
Come and free me
Hold me if I need to weep
Maybe it's not the season
Maybe it's not the year
Maybe there's no good reason
Why I'm locked up inside
Just cause they wanna hide me
The moon goes bright
The darker they make my night
Unplayed pianos are often by a window
In a room where nobody loved goes
She sits alone with her silent song
Somebody bring her home
Unplayed piano (unplayed piano)
Still holds a tune (still holds a tune)
Lock on the lid (years, years pass by)
In a stale, stale room (in the changing of the moon)
Maybe it's not that easy (through the only window)
Or maybe it's not that hard (in a stale, stale room)
Maybe they could release me (stale, stale room)
Let the people decide
I've got nothing to hide
I've done nothing wrong
So why have I been here so long?
Unplayed pianos are often by a window
In a room where nobody loved goes
She sits alone with her silent song
Somebody bring her home
Unplayed pianos are often by a window
In a room where nobody loved goes
She sits alone with her silent song
Somebody bring her home
Unplayed piano
Still holds a tune
Years pass by
In the changing of the moon
What If I'm Wrong lyrics - Damien Rice
I could wrestle with tomorrow
Until tomorrow's in the past
Because I have torn apart what's beautiful
To prove that nothing lasts
I have stayed locked behind these doors
To show there's no way out
I got lost within the space between
The question and the doubt
On an ordinary day
In an ordinary way
I have combed the cracks of virtue
For a place to lay the blame
And I have hated, I have lied
Been guilty and denied
I've dismissed the ones who question me
Declaring I am right
What if I'm wrong
What if I'm wrong
I have built a wall between
What I believed and what is true
I have sacrificed the love I had
For power over you
I have convicted those who disagree
And walked over the weak
I have placed a gun within the mouth
Of those who dared to speak
And on an ordinary day
In an ordinary way
I have crushed the minds of children
With extraordinary shame
And I have carried on this war
Though no one wins an endless fight
I have claimed that God has guided me
And killed to prove I'm right
What if I'm wrong
What if I'm wrong
What if I'm wrong
What if I'm wrong
Is this soul worth saving at all?
Cause if I lose my wings then surely I must fall
And the gods prayed to the gods they made
We could wrestle with tomorrow
until tomorrow's in the past
We could tear apart what's beautiful
To prove that nothing lasts
We could stay locked behind the doors
To show there's no way out
We could get lost within the space between
The question and the doubt
But what if we're wrong?
Until tomorrow's in the past
Because I have torn apart what's beautiful
To prove that nothing lasts
I have stayed locked behind these doors
To show there's no way out
I got lost within the space between
The question and the doubt
On an ordinary day
In an ordinary way
I have combed the cracks of virtue
For a place to lay the blame
And I have hated, I have lied
Been guilty and denied
I've dismissed the ones who question me
Declaring I am right
What if I'm wrong
What if I'm wrong
I have built a wall between
What I believed and what is true
I have sacrificed the love I had
For power over you
I have convicted those who disagree
And walked over the weak
I have placed a gun within the mouth
Of those who dared to speak
And on an ordinary day
In an ordinary way
I have crushed the minds of children
With extraordinary shame
And I have carried on this war
Though no one wins an endless fight
I have claimed that God has guided me
And killed to prove I'm right
What if I'm wrong
What if I'm wrong
What if I'm wrong
What if I'm wrong
Is this soul worth saving at all?
Cause if I lose my wings then surely I must fall
And the gods prayed to the gods they made
We could wrestle with tomorrow
until tomorrow's in the past
We could tear apart what's beautiful
To prove that nothing lasts
We could stay locked behind the doors
To show there's no way out
We could get lost within the space between
The question and the doubt
But what if we're wrong?
What This Night Is For lyrics - Damien Rice
She's got a place within the woods
Where she swings near the house in the trees
She's got a way with animals
And invites me along to get free
There's an army of men who'd shoot for her
Even goddesses watch when she moves
Her friends get us high and something opens up the sky
And fills us with nothing to lose
Oh and we've never been in this place before
No, not as it is right now
And we may never know what this night is for
So for now we'll just sit around
He's got a way of lingering
Like a ghost that just won't go away
He's got a place within the wind
He's around but I know he won't stay
There's an army of stars that crash the night
They were burning but still it was cold
So we dared the gods to come and sit and talk with us
We were bruised, we were stilled, we were bold
Oh and we've never been in this place before
No, not as it is right now, right now
And we may never know what this night is for
So for now we'll just sit around
Yeah, for now we'll just sit around
Oh 'cause we've never been in this place before
No, not as it is right now, right now
And we may never know what this life and love, and living is for
So for now, we'll just sit around
Yeah, for now we'll just sit around
Where she swings near the house in the trees
She's got a way with animals
And invites me along to get free
There's an army of men who'd shoot for her
Even goddesses watch when she moves
Her friends get us high and something opens up the sky
And fills us with nothing to lose
Oh and we've never been in this place before
No, not as it is right now
And we may never know what this night is for
So for now we'll just sit around
He's got a way of lingering
Like a ghost that just won't go away
He's got a place within the wind
He's around but I know he won't stay
There's an army of stars that crash the night
They were burning but still it was cold
So we dared the gods to come and sit and talk with us
We were bruised, we were stilled, we were bold
Oh and we've never been in this place before
No, not as it is right now, right now
And we may never know what this night is for
So for now we'll just sit around
Yeah, for now we'll just sit around
Oh 'cause we've never been in this place before
No, not as it is right now, right now
And we may never know what this life and love, and living is for
So for now, we'll just sit around
Yeah, for now we'll just sit around
Wild And Free lyrics - Damien Rice
Don't give me something to hold in my hand
Something else to believe in
Cause I'm over it
And your reason for wanting to stay
Your reason for wanting to change
My reason for everything I've done to you...
I have tried but I don't fit
Into this box I'm living with
I could go wild
But you might lock me up...
And I have tried but I don't fit
Into this box you call a gift
I could be wild and free
But god forbid then you might envy me...
So don't give me love with a whole bunch of rules
'cause that kind of love is just for fools
And I'm over it
And my reasons for walking away
My reasons for wanting to change
My reasons for everything I lost with you...
I have tried but I don't fit
Into this box I'm living with
I could go wild
But you might lock me up...
And I have tried but I don't fit
Into this box you call a gift
I could be wild and free
God forbid then you might envy me...
I have tried but I don't fit
Into this box I'm living with
I could go wild
But you might lock me up...
And I have tried but I don't fit
Into this box you call a gift
I could be wild and free
God forbid then you might envy me...
I could be wild and free
God forbid then you might envy me...
I could be wild and free
Something else to believe in
Cause I'm over it
And your reason for wanting to stay
Your reason for wanting to change
My reason for everything I've done to you...
I have tried but I don't fit
Into this box I'm living with
I could go wild
But you might lock me up...
And I have tried but I don't fit
Into this box you call a gift
I could be wild and free
But god forbid then you might envy me...
So don't give me love with a whole bunch of rules
'cause that kind of love is just for fools
And I'm over it
And my reasons for walking away
My reasons for wanting to change
My reasons for everything I lost with you...
I have tried but I don't fit
Into this box I'm living with
I could go wild
But you might lock me up...
And I have tried but I don't fit
Into this box you call a gift
I could be wild and free
God forbid then you might envy me...
I have tried but I don't fit
Into this box I'm living with
I could go wild
But you might lock me up...
And I have tried but I don't fit
Into this box you call a gift
I could be wild and free
God forbid then you might envy me...
I could be wild and free
God forbid then you might envy me...
I could be wild and free
