Vertigo Lyrics
[Intro]
Unos, dos, tres, catorce!
(Turn it up loud, captain)
[Verse 1]
Lights go down, it's dark
The jungle is your head, can't rule your heart
A feeling so much stronger than a thought
Your eyes are wide
And though your soul, it can't be bought
Your mind can wander
[Chorus]
Hello, hello (¡Hola!)
I'm at a place called Vertigo (¿Dónde está?)
It's everything I wish I didn't know
Except you give me something I can feel
Feel
[Verse 2]
The night is full of holes
As bullets rip the sky of ink with gold
They twinkle as the boys play rock and roll
They know that they can't dance
At least they know
I can't stand the beats, I'm asking for the cheque
The girl with crimson nails has Jesus 'round her neck
Swinging to the music, swinging to the music
Oh, oh, oh
[Chorus]
Hello, hello (¡Hola!)
I'm at a place called Vertigo (¿Dónde está?)
It's everything I wish I didn't know
But you give me something I can feel
Feel
[Post-Chorus]
Checkmated!
Just fun!
She made it in, yeah!
[Bridge]
All of this, all of this can be yours
All of this, all of this can be yours
All of this, all of this can be yours
Just give me what I want and no one gets hurt
[Chorus]
Hello, hello (¡Hola!)
We're at a place called Vertigo (¿Dónde está?)
Lights go down and all I know
Is that you give me something
I can feel your love teaching me how
Your love is teaching me how
How to kneel
Kneel
[Outro]
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah (Yeah)
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Miracle Drug Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I wanna trip inside your head
Spend the day there
To hear the things you haven't said
And see what you might see
I wanna hear you when you call
Do you feel anything at all?
I wanna see your thoughts take shape
And walk right out
[Pre-Chorus]
Freedom has a scent
Like the top of a newborn baby's head
[Chorus]
The songs are in your eyes
I see them when you smile
I've seen enough, I'm not giving up
On a miracle drug
[Verse 2]
Of science and the human heart
There is no limit
There is no failure here, sweetheart
Just when you quit
I am you and you are mine
Love makes nonsense of space and
[Pre-Chorus]
Time will disappear
Love and logic keep us clear
Reason is on our side
Love
[Chorus]
The songs are in your eyes
I see them when you smile
I've had enough of romantic love
I'd give it up, yeah, I'd give it up
For a miracle
A miracle drug
(A miracle drug)
[Post-Chorus]
(Yeah, yeah)
(Oh, yeah, oh)
(Yeah, oh, yeah)
(Oh, yeah, yeah, oh)
(Yeah, oh, yeah) God, I need your
(Oh, yeah, yeah, oh) Help tonight
[Bridge]
Beneath the noise, below the din
I hear your voice, it's whispering:
"In science and in medicine
I was a stranger, you took me in"
[Chorus]
The songs are in your eyes
I see them when you smile
I've had enough of romantic love
Yeah, I'd give it up, yeah, I'd give it up
For a miracle
A miracle drug
Miracle
Miracle drug
Yahweh Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Take these shoes
Click clacking down some dead end street
Take these shoes
And make them fit
[Verse 2]
Take this shirt
Polyester white trash made in nowhere
Take this shirt
And make it clean, clean
[Verse 3]
Take this soul
Stranded in some skin and bones
Take this soul
And make it sing, sing
[Chorus]
Yahweh, Yahweh
Always pain before a child is born
Yahweh, Yahweh
Still I'm waiting for the dawn
[Verse 4]
Take these hands
Teach them what to carry
Take these hands
Don't make a fist, no
[Verse 5]
Take this mouth
So quick to criticize
Take this mouth
Give it a kiss
[Chorus]
Yahweh, Yahweh
Always pain before a child is born
Yahweh, Yahweh
Still I'm waiting for the dawn
[Bridge]
Still waiting for the dawn
The sun is coming up
The sun is coming up on the ocean
This love is like a drop in the ocean
This love is like a drop in the ocean
Oh
[Chorus]
Yahweh, Yahweh
Always pain before a child is born
Yahweh, tell me now
Why the dark before the dawn?
[Post-Chorus]
Oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh
Oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh
[Verse 6]
Take this city
A city should be shining on a hill
Take this city
If it be your will
[Verse 7]
What no man can own
No man can take
Take this heart
Take this heart
Take this heart
And make it break
Fast Cars Lyrics
[Verse 1]
My cell is ringing, no ID
I need to know who's calling
My garden's overgrown
I go out on my belly crawling
I got CCTV, pornography, CNBC
I got the nightly news
To get to know the enemy
[Pre-Chorus]
All I want is a picture of you
All I want is to get right next to you
All I want is your face in a locket
Picture in my pocket
I take a pill to stop it
[Chorus]
I know these fast cars
Will do me no good
[Verse 2]
I'm going nowhere
Where I am it is a lot of fun
They're in the desert to dismantle an atomic bomb
I watch them channel hop
Check the stocks, I'm in detox
I want the lot of what you've got
If what you've got can make this stop
[Pre-Chorus]
All I want is a picture of you
All I want is to be right next to you
All I want is your picture in a locket
Your face in my pocket
Take a pill to stop it
[Chorus]
I know these fast cars
Will do me no good
[Bridge]
Don't you worry 'bout your mind
Don't you worry 'bout your mind
Don't you worry 'bout your mind
Don't you worry 'bout your mind
You should worry 'bout the day
That the pain it goes away
You know I miss mine sometimes
Do do do do da do
Do do do do
Do do do do
Do do do do
Do do do do
The sides are much too big
Sides are much
[Verse 3]
There is no fiction
That will truly fit the situation
I'm documenting every detail
Every conversation
Not used to talking to somebody in the body
Somebody in the body
Somebody in the body
Hey-ah oh
