This was definitely the hardest album I've ever transcribed, so take it easy
on the complaints ok? It's not that easy when most of the lyrics are "dream-
scape" whispers. Hopefully, the rest is pretty much ok. This update has been
possible with help from Pippin (pera@stud.cs.uit.no). That's about it for
me. Enjoy the lyrics.
@SONG: Spanish Air
Screams that seem unreal
Shouts follow the sins
There's nothing here for me now
The wind blows for as far as I can see
I long for the sun
The midland air
For all that I have
There's written in waves
I know that now
There's left to be seen
I know that I've lost him
I'm leaving here
Fastest knife a sign
Feels so far away
There's nothing here for me now
The clouds fly, so far
I'm lost there now
I long for the sun
The midland air
For all that I have
Is written in waves
And now that I [...know...]
Is left to be seen
And now that I've lost him
I'm leaving here
@SONG: Celia's Dream
She flies
She's gone to ride an angel's breath
Gone to taste a dream
And every time I call her
A shadow crawls away
But she takes
She laughs him all [...there is...]
And everything she owes me
She gives
She told me that she loved me
Love, just for a day
And all the time I feel her
I feel her fade away
But she takes
She gives him all the fakes
And everything feels good
And clouds like shadows pass
She's passing like a day
She takes
She gives him all the [...shadows...]
And everything feels good
And clouds like shadows pass
She's passing like a day
@SONG: Catch The Breeze
Feels like all the days are gone
Just catch the breeze
You know it had to fall
Rain, washes, ways down
And I, I want the world to pass
And I, I watch the wind to fly
You can believe in everything
You can believe it all
Hey, are you feeling something new
Just watch the rain, it helps in all you do
The breeze, it blows, it blows everything
And I, I want the world to pass
And I, I want the sun to shine
You can believe in everything
You can believe it all
@SONG: Ballad Of Sister Sue
[...You...] tell me I'm lost and I don't seem too sure what to do
[...You...] tell me I'm lost and I don't seem too sure what to do
There's a fire in my head and I'm blinded by bullets
There's a fire in my head and I'm blinded by bullets
Dancing to nowhere, I'm losing my head and I'm
Dancing to nowhere, I'm losing my head and I'm
And the man at the bar that [...night...] recall that he needed me
And the man at the bar that [...night...] recall that he needed me
Sister, I've lost all the feeling
I'm lost and I'm sold
I lay down beside you
Sister, I'm blinded
It's only my eyes
I've sold them before
The man said the drinking is handled [...by pouring it right...]
The man said the drinking is handled [...by pouring it right...]
And It seemed much the same when he pointed the gun at his head
And It seemed much the same when he pointed the gun at his head
[...Who'd need me then...]
In raise of much noise and I checked out the time, yeah
Let all my face down [...in the words...] of a stranger [...]
Sister, I've lost all the feeling
I'm lost and I'm sold
I lay down beside you
Sister, I'm blinded
It's only my eyes
I've sold them before
@SONG: Erik's Song
Instrumental
@SONG: Waves
Watch the waves so far away
They're washing 'cross the paths that I have made
Leaving all my sins, I turn away
Like soaring birds I watch my sorrows play
Don't you know, I've left and gone away
You're knocking on the door I closed today
And everything looks brighter
Waves at play just sooth my pain away
Felt so good to see the sun
I choose my time before I choose the wine
Floating cross the waves the silence runs
My thoughts can cure but now my sorrow's done
Don't you know, I've left and gone away
You're knocking on the door I closed today
And everything looks brighter
The waves at play, they sooth my pain away
@SONG: Brighter
She don't understand you
Her birth made of grain
She can now see the sun
And everyone said, yeah
You're better off dead but
She didn't know we were alone
And when it all looks brighter
Just turn around and smile
When it's looking better
Just leave it all to time
Just leave it all to time
She said don't you know, yeah
There's people in places
And places is what made her see
And everyone said yeah
She's better off dead but
She looked like she wanted to live
And when it all looks brighter
Just turn around and smile
When it's looking better
Just leave it all to time
Just leave it all to time
When it all looks brighter
Just turn around and smile
And when it's looking better
Just leave it all to time [repeat 3]
@SONG: The Sadman
I know there is
It all away
It all goes round
The house today
The reason why
You're leasing time
The sadman calls
He calls for you
The [...] [...need to be...]
The sadman calls
He calls for you
The things you say
The songs that shine
For all the time
I count the ways
Your smile [...the place...]
The sadman calls
He calls for you
You hurt my feelings, [...you needed me...]
The sadman [...]
He [...] for you
@SONG: Primal
Today
I lost a [...colours fray...]
Watch the games you play
And when it all force down you
Don't forget the days
When the sunshine fades away
Remember what they say
Remember what they say
The right time
She calls
To tell
Every time
She says she's falling
And every time
She call us friends
Because
To the right time
She calls
To tell it would
Every time
She says she's falling
Every time
She call us friends
Can't believe
She says she's [...]
Can't believe
[...Disgusted...]
[...Disgusted...]
I can't believe it
[...Scares me...]
[...Can't believe it...]
[...]
