Unos, dos, tres, catorce
Turn it up loud, captain
Lights go down, it's dark
The jungle is your head, can't rule your heart
A feeling's so much stronger than a thought
Your eyes are wide and though your soul, it can't be bought
Your mind can wander
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
The night is full of holes
'Cause 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 beat, I'm asking for the check
Girl with crimson nails has Jesus around her neck
Swinging to the music, swinging to the music (whoa, whoa)
(Whoa, whoa, whoa)
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
Checkmated
Just fun
She made it in, yeah
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
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
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Miracle Drug (Remastered 2024)
I want to trip inside your head
Spend the day there
To hear the things you haven't said
And see what you might see
I want to hear you when you call
Do you feel anything at all?
I want to see your thoughts take shape
And walk right out
Freedom has a scent
Like the top of a new born baby's head
The songs are in your eyes
I see them when you smile
The songs won't be denied
I've had enough I'm not giving up
On a miracle, miracle drug
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 time, will disappear
Love and logic keep us clear
Reason is on our side, love
The songs are in your eyes
I see them when you smile
The songs won't be denied
I've had enough I'm not giving up
On a miracle, a miracle drug
Miracle, miracle drug
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
The songs are in your eyes
I see them when you smile
The songs won't be denied
I've had enough of romantic love
Miracle, miracle drug
Miracle, miracle drug
Spend the day there
To hear the things you haven't said
And see what you might see
I want to hear you when you call
Do you feel anything at all?
I want to see your thoughts take shape
And walk right out
Freedom has a scent
Like the top of a new born baby's head
The songs are in your eyes
I see them when you smile
The songs won't be denied
I've had enough I'm not giving up
On a miracle, miracle drug
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 time, will disappear
Love and logic keep us clear
Reason is on our side, love
The songs are in your eyes
I see them when you smile
The songs won't be denied
I've had enough I'm not giving up
On a miracle, a miracle drug
Miracle, miracle drug
Beneath the noise
Below the din
I hear your voice
It's whispering
In science and in medicine

You took me in
The songs are in your eyes
I see them when you smile
The songs won't be denied
I've had enough of romantic love

Sometimes You Can't Make It On Your Own (Remastered 2024)
Tough
You think you've got the stuff
You're telling me and anyone
You're hard enough
You don't have to put up a fight
You don't have to always be right
Let me take some of the punches
For you tonight
Listen to me now
I need to let you know
You don't have to go it alone
And it's you when I look in the mirror
And it's you when I don't pick up the phone
Sometimes you can't make it on your own
We fight all the time
You and I, that's alright
We're the same soul
I don't need, I don't need to hear you say
That if we weren't so alike
You'd like me a whole lot more
Listen to me now
I need to let you know
You don't have to go it alone
And it's you when I look in the mirror
And it's you when I don't pick up the phone
Sometimes you can't make it on your own
I know that we don't talk
I'm sick of it all
But can you hear me when I
Sing, you're the reason I sing
You're the reason why the opera is in me
Well, hey now
Still got to let you know
A house doesn't make a home
Don't leave me here alone
And it's you when I look in the mirror
And it's you that makes it hard to let go
Sometimes you can't make it on your own
Sometimes you can't make it
Best you can do is to fake it
Sometimes you can't make it on your own
You think you've got the stuff
You're telling me and anyone
You're hard enough
You don't have to put up a fight
You don't have to always be right
Let me take some of the punches
For you tonight
Listen to me now
I need to let you know
You don't have to go it alone
And it's you when I look in the mirror
And it's you when I don't pick up the phone
Sometimes you can't make it on your own
We fight all the time
You and I, that's alright
We're the same soul
I don't need, I don't need to hear you say
That if we weren't so alike
You'd like me a whole lot more
Listen to me now
I need to let you know
You don't have to go it alone
And it's you when I look in the mirror
And it's you when I don't pick up the phone
Sometimes you can't make it on your own
I know that we don't talk
I'm sick of it all
But can you hear me when I
Sing, you're the reason I sing
You're the reason why the opera is in me
Well, hey now
Still got to let you know
A house doesn't make a home
Don't leave me here alone
And it's you when I look in the mirror
And it's you that makes it hard to let go
Sometimes you can't make it on your own
Sometimes you can't make it
Best you can do is to fake it
Sometimes you can't make it on your own

Love And Peace Or Else (Remastered 2024)
Lay down
Lay down
Lay your sweet lovely on the ground
Lay your love on the track
We're gonna break the monster's back
Oh, oh, hey, hey
Lay down your treasure
Lay it down now, brother
You don't have time
For a jealous lover
As you enter this life
I pray you depart
With a wrinkled face
And a brand new heart
I don't know if I can take it
I'm not easy on my knees
Here's my heart, can't you break it?
I need some release, release, release
We need love and peace
Love, love and peace
Lay down
Lay down your guns
All you daughters of Zion
All you Abraham sons
I don't know if I can make it
I'm not easy on my knees
Here's my heart, I'll let you can break it
I need some release, release, release
We need love and peace
Love and peace
Baby don't fight, we can talk this thing through
You with me, me and you
I'll call on your phone, the TV is still on
But the sound is turned down
And the troops on the ground
Are about to dig in
I wonder where is the love?
Where is the love?
Love and peace
Where is the love?
Where is the love?
Where is the love?
Lay down
Lay your sweet lovely on the ground
Lay your love on the track
We're gonna break the monster's back
Oh, oh, hey, hey
Lay down your treasure
Lay it down now, brother
You don't have time
For a jealous lover
As you enter this life
I pray you depart

City Of Blinding Lights (Remastered 2024)
The more you see the less you know
The less you find out as you grow
I knew much more then than I do now
Neon heart, day-glo eyes
A city lit by fireflies
They were advertising in the skies
For people like us
And I miss you when you're not around
I'm, I'm getting ready to leave the ground
Ohh-ooh
Ohh-ooh
Oh, you look so beautiful tonight
In the city of blinding lights
Don't look before you laugh
Look ugly in a photograph
Flash bulbs, purple irises the camera can't see
I've seen you walk unafraid
I've seen you in the clothes you've made
Can you see the beauty inside of me?
What happened to the beauty I had inside of me?
And I miss you when you're not around
I'm, I'm getting ready to leave the ground
Ohh-ooh
Ohh-ooh
Oh, you look so beautiful tonight
In the city of blinding lights
(Time, time)
Time
Won't leave me as I am
Time
Won't take the boy out of this man
Oh, you look so beautiful tonight
Oh, you look so beautiful tonight
In the city of blinding lights
The more you know, the less you feel
What some pray for what others steal
Blessings are not just for the ones who kneel
Luckily, luckily
Luckily
Luckily
Luckily
The less you find out as you grow
I knew much more then than I do now
Neon heart, day-glo eyes
A city lit by fireflies
They were advertising in the skies
For people like us
And I miss you when you're not around
I'm, I'm getting ready to leave the ground
Ohh-ooh
Ohh-ooh
Oh, you look so beautiful tonight
In the city of blinding lights
Don't look before you laugh
Look ugly in a photograph
Flash bulbs, purple irises the camera can't see
I've seen you walk unafraid
I've seen you in the clothes you've made
Can you see the beauty inside of me?
What happened to the beauty I had inside of me?
And I miss you when you're not around
I'm, I'm getting ready to leave the ground
Ohh-ooh
Ohh-ooh
Oh, you look so beautiful tonight
In the city of blinding lights
(Time, time)
Time
Won't leave me as I am

Oh, you look so beautiful tonight
Oh, you look so beautiful tonight

All Because Of You (Remastered 2024)
I was born a child of grace
Nothing else about the place
Everything was ugly but your beautiful face
It left me no illusion
I saw you in the curve of the moon
In the shadow cast across my room
You heard me in my tune
When I just heard confusion
All because of you
All because of you
All because of you
I am, I am
I like the sound of my own voice
I didn't give anyone else a choice
An intellectual tortoise
Racing with your bullet train
Some people get squashed crossing the tracks
Some people got high-rises on their backs
I'm not broke but you can see the cracks
You can make me perfect again
All because of you
All because of you
All because of you
I am, I am
I'm alive, I'm being born
I just arrived, I'm at the door
Of the place I started out from
And I want back inside
All because of you
All because of you
All because of you
I am
Nothing else about the place
Everything was ugly but your beautiful face
It left me no illusion
I saw you in the curve of the moon
In the shadow cast across my room
You heard me in my tune
When I just heard confusion
All because of you
All because of you
All because of you
I am, I am
I like the sound of my own voice
I didn't give anyone else a choice
An intellectual tortoise
Racing with your bullet train
Some people get squashed crossing the tracks
Some people got high-rises on their backs
I'm not broke but you can see the cracks
You can make me perfect again
All because of you
All because of you
All because of you
I am, I am
I'm alive, I'm being born
I just arrived, I'm at the door
Of the place I started out from
And I want back inside
All because of you
All because of you
All because of you
I am

A Man And A Woman (Remastered 2024)
Little sister don't you worry about a thing today
Take the heat from the sun
Little sister
I know that everything is not ok
But you're like honey on my tongue
True love never can be rent
But only true love can keep beauty innocent
I could never take a chance
Of losing love to find romance
In the mysterious distance
Between a man and a woman
No I could never take a chance
'Cos I could never understand
The mysterious distance
Between a man and a woman
You can run from love
And if it's really love it will find you
Catch you by the heel
But you can't be numb for love
The only pain is to feel nothing at all
How can I hurt when I'm holding you?
I could never take a chance
Of losing love to find romance
In the mysterious distance
Between a man and a woman
And you're the one, there's no-one else
You make me want to lose myself
In the mysterious distance
Between a man and a woman
Brown eyed girl across the street
On rue Saint Divine
I thought this is the one for me
But she was already mine
You were already mine...
Little sister
I've been sleeping in the street again
Like a stray dog
Little sister
I've been trying to feel complete again
But you're gone and so is God
The soul needs beauty for a soul mate
When the soul wants... the soul waits ...
No I could never take a chance
Of losing love to find romance
In the mysterious distance
Between a man and a woman
For love and faith and sex and fear
And all the things that keep us here
In the mysterious distance
Between a man and a woman
How can I hurt when I'm holding you?
Take the heat from the sun
Little sister
I know that everything is not ok
But you're like honey on my tongue
True love never can be rent
But only true love can keep beauty innocent
I could never take a chance
Of losing love to find romance
In the mysterious distance
Between a man and a woman
No I could never take a chance
'Cos I could never understand
The mysterious distance
Between a man and a woman
You can run from love
And if it's really love it will find you
Catch you by the heel
But you can't be numb for love
The only pain is to feel nothing at all
How can I hurt when I'm holding you?
I could never take a chance
Of losing love to find romance
In the mysterious distance
Between a man and a woman
And you're the one, there's no-one else
You make me want to lose myself
In the mysterious distance
Between a man and a woman
Brown eyed girl across the street

Crumbs From Your Table (Remastered 2024)
From the brightest star
Comes the blackest hole
You had so much to offer
Why did you offer your soul?
I was there for you, baby
When you needed my help
Would you deny for others
What you demand for yourself?
Cool down mama, cool off
Cool down mama, cool off
You speak of sights and wonders
I need something other
I would believe if I was able
But I'm waiting on the crumbs from your table
You were pretty as a picture
It was all there to see
Then your face caught up with your psychology
With a mouth full of teeth
You ate all your friends
And you broke every heart thinking every heart mends
You speak of signs and wonders
But I need something other
I would believe if I was able
But I'm waiting on the crumbs from your table
Where you live should not decide
Whether you live or whether you die
Three to a bed
Sister Ann, she said
Dignity passes by
And you speak of signs and wonders
But I need something other
I would believe if I was able
I'm waiting on the crumbs from your table, hey
Comes the blackest hole
You had so much to offer
Why did you offer your soul?
I was there for you, baby
When you needed my help
Would you deny for others
What you demand for yourself?
Cool down mama, cool off
Cool down mama, cool off
You speak of sights and wonders
I need something other
I would believe if I was able
But I'm waiting on the crumbs from your table
You were pretty as a picture
It was all there to see
Then your face caught up with your psychology
With a mouth full of teeth
You ate all your friends
And you broke every heart thinking every heart mends
You speak of signs and wonders
But I need something other
I would believe if I was able
But I'm waiting on the crumbs from your table
Where you live should not decide
Whether you live or whether you die

One Step Closer (Remastered 2024)
I'm 'round the corner from anything that's real
I'm across the road from hope
I'm under a bridge in a rip tide, that's taken
Everything I call my own
One step closer to knowing
One step closer to knowing
I'm on an island at a busy intersection
I can't go forward, I can't turn back
Can't see the future
It's getting away from me
I just watch the tail lights glowing
One step closer to knowing
One step closer to knowing
One step closer to knowing
Knowing, knowing
I'm hanging out to dry
With my old clothes
Finger still red with the prick of an old rose
Well, the heart that hurts
Is a heart that beats
Can you hear the drummer slowing?
One step closer to knowing
One step closer to knowing
One step closer to knowing
To knowing, to knowing, to knowing
One step closer to knowing
One step closer to knowing
One step closer to knowing
To knowing, to knowing, to knowing
I'm across the road from hope
I'm under a bridge in a rip tide, that's taken
Everything I call my own
One step closer to knowing
One step closer to knowing
I'm on an island at a busy intersection
I can't go forward, I can't turn back
Can't see the future
It's getting away from me
I just watch the tail lights glowing
One step closer to knowing
One step closer to knowing
One step closer to knowing
Knowing, knowing

Original Of The Species (Remastered 2024)
Baby, slow down
The end is not as fun as the start
Please stay a child somewhere in your heart
I'll give you everything you want
Except the thing that you want
You are the first one of your kind
And you feel like no-one before
You steal right under my door
I kneel 'cause I want you some more
I want the lot of what you got
And I want nothing that you're not
Everywhere you go you shout it
You don't have to be shy about it
Some things you shouldn't get too good at
Like smiling, crying and celebrity
Some people got way too much confidence, baby, baby
I'll give you everything you want
Except the thing that you want
You are the first one of your kind
And you feel like no-one before
You steal right under my door
I kneel 'cause I want you some more
I want the lot of what you got
And I want nothing that you're not
Everywhere you go you shout it
You don't have to be shy about it, no
Oh, oh no

Show your soul
You've been keeping your love under control
Everywhere you go you shout it

I want you some more, I want you some more
Oh no, oh no, oh no, oh no

Yahweh (Remastered 2024)
Take these shoes
Click clacking down some dead end street
Take these shoes
And make them fit
Take this shirt
Polyester white trash made in nowhere
Take this shirt
And make it clean, clean
Take this soul
Stranded in some skin and bones
Take this soul
And make it sing
Yahweh, Yahweh
Always pain before a child is born
Yahweh, Yahweh
Still I'm waiting for the dawn
Take these hands
Teach them what to carry
Take these hands
Don't make a fist
Take this mouth
So quick to criticize
Take this mouth
Give it a kiss
Yahweh, Yahweh
Always pain before a child is born
Yahweh, Yahweh
Still I'm waiting for the dawn
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
Yahweh, Yahweh
Always pain before a child is born
Yahweh, tell me now
Why the dark before the dawn?
Take this city
A city should be shining on a hill
Take this city
If it be your will
What no man can own, no man can take
Take this heart
Take this heart
Take this heart
And make it break
Click clacking down some dead end street
Take these shoes
And make them fit
Take this shirt
Polyester white trash made in nowhere
Take this shirt
And make it clean, clean
Take this soul
Stranded in some skin and bones
Take this soul
And make it sing
Yahweh, Yahweh
Always pain before a child is born

Still I'm waiting for the dawn
Take these hands
Teach them what to carry
Take these hands
Don't make a fist

Fast Cars (Remastered 2024)
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
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
I know these fast cars
Will do me no good
I'm going nowhere
Where I am it is a lot of fun
There in the desert to dismantle an atomic bomb
I watch you shadow box
Check the stocks
I'm in detox
I want the lot of what you've got
What you've got can make this stop
All I want is a picture of you
All I want is to get right next to you
All I want is your picture in a locket
Your face in my pocket
Take a pill to stop it
I know these fast cars
Will do me no good
Child inside
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
The size is much too big
There is no fiction
That will truly fit the situation
I'm documenting every detail
Every conversation
Not used to talkin' to somebody in the body
Somebody in a body,
Somebody in a body
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
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
I know these fast cars
Will do me no good
I'm going nowhere
Where I am it is a lot of fun
There in the desert to dismantle an atomic bomb
I watch you shadow box
Check the stocks
I'm in detox
I want the lot of what you've got
What you've got can make this stop
All I want is a picture of you
All I want is to get right next to you
All I want is your picture in a locket
Your face in my pocket
Take a pill to stop it
I know these fast cars
Will do me no good
Child inside
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
The size is much too big
There is no fiction
That will truly fit the situation
I'm documenting every detail
Every conversation
Not used to talkin' to somebody in the body
Somebody in a body,
Somebody in a body

Picture Of You (X+W)
My cell is ringing, no ID, I want to know who's calling
My garden's overgrown, I go out on my bellies, crawling
I got CCTV, pornography, CNBC
I got the nightly news to get to know the enemy
All I want is a picture of you
All I want is to get right next to you
All I want is a picture in a locket
Your face in my pocket, take a pill to stop it
I'm going nowhere, where I am, it is a lot of fun
There in the desert to dismantle an atomic bomb
I watch you, shadow box, check the stocks, I'm in detox
Want a lot of what you've got if what you've got can make this stop
All I want is a picture of you
All I want is to get right next to you
All I want is your picture in a locket
Your face in my pocket, take a pill to stop it
Save me, save me from myself
I know that you've been good to me
Now I need you not to be
Wake me, I fear I can't be asleep
Try not to look so bored
You're buying things you cannot afford
I got yours, and I know you want mine
Xanax and wine
All I want is a picture of you
All I want is to get right next to you
All I want is your picture in a locket
Your face in my pocket, take a pill to stop it
Save me, save me from myself
I know that you've been good to me
Now I need you not to be
Wake me, I fear I can't be asleep
I'm buying things I cannot afford
I'm on a high diving board
I got yours and I know you want mine
Xanax and wine
Don't you worry 'bout your mind
Seems I worry all the time
Don't you worry, you'll be fine
You should worry 'bout the day
That the pain, it goes away
You know I miss mine sometimes
There is no fiction that will truly fit the situation
I'm documenting every detail, every conversation
Not used to talking to somebody in their body
Somebody in a body, is somebody in a body?
In a body, there's somebody, somebody in a body
Somebody in a body, there's somebody
My garden's overgrown, I go out on my bellies, crawling
I got CCTV, pornography, CNBC
I got the nightly news to get to know the enemy
All I want is a picture of you
All I want is to get right next to you
All I want is a picture in a locket

Evidence Of Life
White dove
Won't you find some higher ground?
Don't give up
Don't give up until it's found
We sway
Nothing more to do or say
We sway
Work another day
She's orbiting
This world we're in
We learned to fly
Evidence of life
White dove
Flying in from out of bounds
One leaf
Just a leaf is all she found
Set sail
Nothing much to do or say
We sway
Work another day
She's orbiting
This world we're in
We learned to fly
Evidence of life
We need evidence of life
Bring us evidence of life
She's orbiting (we need evidence of life)

Luckiest Man In The World
I was drinking some wine
And it turned to blood
What's the use of religion
If you're any good?
I know I'm weed killer honey
And you're sugar
But if I'm the prosecution
You'd get away with murder
You're ice, I'm water
And with your telescope
I can see further
We're binary code
A one and a zero
You wanted violins
And you got Nero
You're gravity
Searching for the ground
You're silence
Searching for a sound
Your heart is aching
Your heart has no home
It's fascinating
But you'd rather be alone
I'm ripping the stitches
You've been bandaging up
I'm digging the ditches
For relics of your love
Love hears when I lie
Love puts the blue back in my eye
The sand inside the pearl
You were the luckiest man in the world
If you're hunger
Well, let me feed it
If your heart is full
I'll be there to bleed it
And happiness is for
Those who don't really need it
You can love me
If you must
But why you always love me
Without trust?
I'm ripping the stitches
You've been bandaging up
I've been digging the ditches
For the relics of your love
Love hears when I lie
Love puts the blue back in my eye
The sand inside the pearl
You were the luckiest man in the world
Love's got to be with the weak
Only then love gets the chance to speak
The sand inside the pearl
You were the luckiest man in the world
But you didn't want to be
I, I can't escape myself
I hear you talk
Feel nothing
I feel nothing
I can hear so much
Fear nothing, ooh
These golden days go by
Holding the secrets of the sky
Love hears when I lie
Love puts the blue back in my eye
The sand inside the pearl
You were the luckiest man in the world
Love's got to be with the weak
Only then love gets the chance to speak
The sand inside the pearl
You were the luckiest man in the world
But you didn't want to be
I am alive
Baby, I'm born again and again and again
And again and again and again and again
And it turned to blood
What's the use of religion
If you're any good?
I know I'm weed killer honey
And you're sugar
But if I'm the prosecution
You'd get away with murder
You're ice, I'm water
And with your telescope
I can see further
We're binary code

I Don't Wanna See You Smile
I just can't believe, this is the ending to our story
Years gone, there lost, they still haunt me But I'm alright life is just boring
All the bad times we been through
And I was lost and confused and you continue To do all the things that make me hate you
But I'll still look out for you
We started loving now we're running in circles
Id always be the one that you'd call when your Hurt
Now I need you here
I wanna see you again
The time is here and it's come to an end
I know that you were only good at playing Pretend
But I needed you there
Don't wanna see you again
I finally see all the acts that still remain
Are they signs
For you I'm feening
Because your driving me insane
Like when we'd fight and still laugh all night
We'd give up, you came back, and we still Stayed attached
But that's done times gone we are past that
Now life goes on
We started loving now we're running in circles
Id always be the one that you'd call when your hurt
Now I need you here
I wanna see you again
The time is here and it's come to an end
Now I know that you were only good at playing pretend
But I needed you there
Don't wanna see you again
I cannot breath
Your drowning me with memories I don't want in my mind
But I wanna see you again
Cause when our eyes lock I know I'll be fine
I wanna see you again
We started loving now we're running in circles
Id always be the one that you'd call when your hurt
Now I need you here
I wanna see you again
We started loving now we're running in circles
Id always be the one that you'd call when your hurt

Country Mile
I, oh I believe you
I, oh I
I, oh I beseech you
Walk with me
Along this country mile
Desolation
Is never certain
Before the fact out
Hearts are hurting
But she's a-weeping
The moon is not sleeping
The thing we carried
That what's we're keeping
There's not much light on
Side of the road
So we walk as if our eyes are closed
Walk as if our eyes are closed
I, oh I believe you
I, oh I
I, oh I beseech you
Walk with me
Along this country mile
Is it the wide or narrow
The big or little things
That keep you company
As the summer sings
No use in complaining
The key was under the mat
And if it's raining
You should've thought of that
Of course you should've thought of that
I, oh I believe you
I, oh I
I, oh I beseech you
Walk with me
Along this country mile
I, I, I, I believe you
When you say I
I'm gonna get there
But not unless you help me
Surrender what is lost and found
Silence is the place of sound
To free away what you run to ground
Open up your darkest forest
And leave me where I can't be honest
Breaking up the ice when I go numb
Help you make me hold on so long
Until my race is run
I, oh I believe you
I, oh I
I, oh I beseech you
Walk with me
Along this country mile
I, oh I
I, oh I beseech you
Walk with me
Along this country mile
Desolation
Is never certain
Before the fact out
Hearts are hurting
But she's a-weeping
The moon is not sleeping
The thing we carried
That what's we're keeping
There's not much light on
Side of the road
So we walk as if our eyes are closed
Walk as if our eyes are closed
I, oh I believe you
I, oh I
I, oh I beseech you
Walk with me
Along this country mile
Is it the wide or narrow
The big or little things
That keep you company
As the summer sings
No use in complaining
The key was under the mat
And if it's raining
You should've thought of that
Of course you should've thought of that
I, oh I believe you
I, oh I

Happiness
Love has got a hold on me
Taking all control of me
It's got the very soul of me
Soul, soul, soul, soul
Want to take you next to me
Don't want to be your enemy
Don't think this world was meant to be
No, no, no, no
Happiness is for those who don't really need it
Stop talking, I'm talking to you
Keep walking, we'll make it through
It's hot here! Not even a breeze
Trying to make friends of my enemy
I can't hear you! There's an echo on the line
I'm not near you! But you're on my mind
I'm in the desert! But it won't be long
I'm here for the atomic bomb
Teacher, I'm going to have to pray
We heard the things you have to say
But do we have do what we want today
The boy that's sitting next to me
Cleverness the enemy
Tell me why there needs to be a 21st Century?
Hold on, hold on, hold on
Happiness is for those who don't really need it
Stop talking, I'm talking to you
Keep walking, we'll make it through
It's hot here, not even a breeze
Trying to make friends of my enemies
I can't hear you, there's an echo on the line
I'm not near you, but you're on my mind
I'm in the desert, but it won't be long
We're here for the atomic bomb
Tonight, we can be friends
Let's get down on our knees
The world won't have to end
Not tonight
Sugar, please
Please, baby, please, baby, please
Please, baby, please
Please, baby, please, baby, please
Stop talking, I'm talking to you
Keep walking, we'll make it through
It's hot here, not even a breeze
Trying to make friends of my enemies
I can't hear you, there's an echo on the line
I'm not near you, but you're on my mind
I'm in the desert, but it won't be long

Are You Gonna Wait Forever? (Re-Assemble Edition)
All the obstacles in my way now
Are disappearing every day, now
I'm getting closer
We're getting closer to home
It won't be long until the summer comes
Are you gonna wait forever?
Are you gonna wait forever?
Getting out from under my bed, now
I'm going to say the things I should have said, now
Getting closer
Getting closer to what's true
Gonna find myself in you
Are you gonna wait forever?
Are you gonna wait forever?
Are you gonna wait forever?
Are you gonna wait forever?
There's no one there behind their eyes
They're in the business, beautiful lies
We'll keep the promise
'Cause we don't know how to break it
The furniture you can rearrange
Don't trade your dreams for some small change
Guard the flame, or better leave it naked
Are you gonna wait forever?
Are you gonna wait forever?
Are you gonna wait forever?
How?
Are you gonna wait forever?
How, how long, how long?
Or is it now, now, now?
Or is it now?
Are disappearing every day, now
I'm getting closer
We're getting closer to home
It won't be long until the summer comes
Are you gonna wait forever?
Are you gonna wait forever?
Getting out from under my bed, now
I'm going to say the things I should have said, now
Getting closer
Getting closer to what's true
Gonna find myself in you
Are you gonna wait forever?
Are you gonna wait forever?
Are you gonna wait forever?
Are you gonna wait forever?
There's no one there behind their eyes
They're in the business, beautiful lies
We'll keep the promise
'Cause we don't know how to break it
The furniture you can rearrange
Don't trade your dreams for some small change
Guard the flame, or better leave it naked
Are you gonna wait forever?
Are you gonna wait forever?
Are you gonna wait forever?
How?
Are you gonna wait forever?
How, how long, how long?
Or is it now, now, now?
Or is it now?

All Because Of You 2
Next to it
I was so close to it
I had the universe decoded
I swear I did
I hear you say, "My, oh my
You know I got no tears to cry
And I got no love left in me now
Just salt in my eye"
All because of you (All because of you)
All because of you (All because of you)
All because of you
I am
I am
I am
Thunder's loud
But the sun is shining up above the cloud
It's not the noise, it's the deafening silence
That drowns God out
You say I should go for help
But I can't go, go to nobody else
You're like a river flowing underground
I can feel you when you're not around
All because of you (All because of you)
It's all because of you (All because of you)
All because of you
I am
I am
[Vocalizing]
I'm alive, I'm being born
I just arrived, I'm at the door
Of the place I started out from
I want back inside
All because of you (All because of you)
All because of you (All because of you)
All because of you
I am
I was so close to it
I had the universe decoded
I swear I did
I hear you say, "My, oh my
You know I got no tears to cry
And I got no love left in me now
Just salt in my eye"
All because of you (All because of you)
All because of you (All because of you)
All because of you
I am
I am
I am
Thunder's loud
But the sun is shining up above the cloud
It's not the noise, it's the deafening silence
That drowns God out
You say I should go for help
But I can't go, go to nobody else
You're like a river flowing underground
I can feel you when you're not around
All because of you (All because of you)
It's all because of you (All because of you)
All because of you
I am
I am
[Vocalizing]
I'm alive, I'm being born
I just arrived, I'm at the door
Of the place I started out from
I want back inside
All because of you (All because of you)
All because of you (All because of you)
All because of you
I am

"How To Re-Assemble An Atomic Bomb" is a release of the 2004 album
"How To Dismantle An Atomic Bomb" remastered for the first time, plus
a 'shadow' album, a collection of 10 songs which includes new and unreleased songs discovered in the archive of the original album recording sessions
The Edge speaking on the album:
"The sessions for 'How To Dismantle An Atomic Bomb' were such a creative period for the band, we were exploring so many song ideas in the studio. We were inspired to revisit our early music influences, and it was a time of deep personal introspection for Bono who was attempting to process - dismantle - the death of his father.
For this anniversary edition I went into my personal archive to see if there were any unreleased gems and I hit the jackpot. We chose ten that really spoke to us. Although at the time we left these songs to one side, with the benefit of hindsight we recognize that our initial instincts about them being contenders for the album were right, we were onto something.
What you're getting on this shadow album is that raw energy of discovery, the visceral impact of the music, a sonic narrative, a moment in time, the exploration and interaction of four musicians playing together in a room... this is the pure U2 drop."
