BLACKFIELD

Want you to know
That I could go anytime
I want you to know

Gave me her lips
Gave me her perfect hips
And I slow down
I slow down in love

Once I rise inside

Chorus:

Once she would hold me
She was my only
Only true love
Once she had told me
That I'm holy
Only so long

She'll stay all night
She'll be so quiet
And she won't laugh at my jokes

Once I rise inside

Chorus

Chorus

2. 1000 People

---

A thousand people yell
Shouting my name
But I wanna die in this moment
I wanna die

And a thousand people smile
Smiling at me
But I wanna die in this moment
I wanna die

No way to understand
Why I've become the way I am

And then the sky is filled with stars
I find a place inside my heart

Some people can take a blow
And won't ever drop
But I wanna die in this moment
I wanna die

She will tell me she loves me
And she won't ever stop
But I wanna die in this moment
I wanna die

A coldness in my soul
And I reach out for her to hold

And then I watch her close her eyes
It's only me that needs to cry

And if I stay with you
Do you believe that I'll pull through?

No way to understand
Why I've become the way I am
And then the sky is filled with stars
I find a place inside my heart
And then I watch her close her eyes
It's only me that needs to cry

A thousand people yell
Shouting my name
But I wanna die in this moment
I wanna die

3. Miss U

---

They said you're in love again
And I tried to hide my pain
I was buried in my bed
With your pictures in my head

Your living another life
It cuts me like a knife
I hope you understand
I'm the one who's left behind

Tomorrow you'll be gone
And I'll miss you
Yeah I'll miss you
Yeah I'll miss you

Tomorrow you'll be gone
And I'll miss you
Yeah I'll miss you
Yeah I'll miss you

They said you're in love again
And my eyes start to burn
Wherever you are now
I wish you could hear my silent sigh

It's not that I try to blame
It's just kind of a rainy day
I hope you understand
I'm the one who's left behind

Tomorrow you'll be gone
And I'll miss you
Yeah I'll miss you
Yeah I'll miss you

Tomorrow you'll be gone
And I'll miss you
Yeah I'll miss you
Yeah I'll miss you

Tomorrow you'll be gone
And I'll miss you
Yeah I'll miss you
Yeah I'll miss you

4. Christenings

---

I met you in a record store.
You had slept in the clothes you wore.
But I knew I'd seen you somewhere before.

What happened to your guitar?
And what happened to the prettiest star?
Can you still play the songs that got you so far?

Hey you with your shadow in the gutter,
how low have you got to go before you're through?
High times and vodka in the mornings,
all your memories are coming out of your shoes.

Black dog sitting in the park,
odd looks from the mothers of the devil's own.
Shoplifting, getting your essentials.
Gatecrashing christenings and funerals,
and weddings too.

I used to see you all the time on MTV.
Read your life story in a magazine.
I guess you thought that's the way it would always be.
But I believe in you.
'Cause I think that you want me to.
Though I never really liked your songs, it's true.

Hey you with your shadow in the gutter,
how low have you got to go before you're through?
High times and vodka in the mornings,
all your memories are coming out of your shoes.

Black dog sitting in the park,
odd looks from the mothers of the devil's own.
Shoplifting, getting your essentials.
Gatecrashing christenings and funerals,
and weddings too.

5. This Killer

---

Don't leave the door ajar
Don't walk away
Don't leave me in the dark

You think you know me well
It makes me laugh
Cause I don't know myself

This killer on the run
He steals from me the sun
He'll catch me off my guard
He likes me when I'm down and when I'm sad

Falling man
Falling man

It's always me alone
That hears the noise
'Cause it's my inner voice

So stay inside your home
And hide away
Before I lose control

This killer on the run
He steals from me the sun
He'll catch me off my guard
He likes me when I'm down and when I'm sad

Falling man
Falling man

This killer on the run
He steals from me the sun
And I can say I know him well
And so can he because it's me

He is me
He is me

6. Epidemic

---

Don't say everything's okay
Don't tell me that it's just a phase
It doesn't help me

All the stars are standing still
The anger and the sleeping pills
Are all that's left now

An epidemic in my heart
Takes hold and slowly poisons me
Her will won't let me breathe
It comes in waves and bleeds me dry
This love is slowly killing me
For me, there's no-one else

Jealousy just eats me up
Your knife has made the deepest cut
My heart is pumping

You say that there must be an end
But afterwards we'll still be friends
It seemed so easy

An epidemic in my heart
Takes hold and slowly poisons me
Her will won't let me breathe
It comes in waves and bleeds me dry
This love is slowly killing me
For me, there's noone else

An epidemic in my heart
Takes hold and slowly poisons me
Her will won't let me breathe
It comes in waves and bleeds me dry
This love is slowly killing me
For me, there's noone else

Don't say everything's okay
Don't tell me that it's just a phase
It doesn't help me

7. My Gift Silence

---

If I compiled all my crimes and my lies
into amnesty,
would you come back to me?

The small on my lips is a sign
that I don't hear you leaving me,
that I don't hear my own soul scream.

I'll read your lips,
watch your scarf play at your hips,
and I know it's true,
but I don't hear and call to you:

"Don't blame yourself,
don't change yourself,
just want to be over you see and feel numb.
Don't hate yourself." If I compiled all my crimes and my lies
into amnesty,
would you come back to me?

The small on my lips is a sign
that I don't hear you leaving me,
that I don't hear my own soul scream.

I'll read your lips,
watch your scarf play at your hips,
and I know it's true,
but I don't hear and call to you:

"Don't blame yourself,
don't change yourself,
just want to be over you see and feel numb.
Don't hate yourself."

8. Someday

---

When you were a boy
You had no place inside your parents' world.
You were falling like the leaves
From an old and dying tree

You went to school,
But the teachers made you feel a fool
While the children played with joy
You're the one who were avoid

Someday you will find a better place to stay
You'll never need to feel this way again
Again again

Show a smile,
They'd like to have you in the members club
They'll buy you drinks and tell you lies
They pure ambrella with some ice.

No one cares,
About that f*cking pretty face you have,
It means nothing much this life
So find the highest cliff and dive.

Someday you will find a better place to stay
You'll never need to feel this way again
Again again

Someday you will find a better place to stay
You'll never need to feel this way again
Again again

9. Where Is My Love ?

---

Endless fields of emptiness in my dark and wounded heart
Where is my love ?

The freezing moment when you turned your head and waved goodbye
Where is my love ?

Even all the biggest storms can't take my pain away
Where is my love ?
Noisy happy people crossing streets from side to side
Where is my love ?

I gave you everything I could but you want the stars
Where is my love ?
Where is my love ?
Endless fields of emptiness in my dark and wounded heart
Where is my love ?
Where is my love ?

Even all the biggest storms can't take my pain away
Where is my love ?
Noisy happy people crossing streets from side to side
Where is my love ?
Where is my love ?

Noisy happy people crossing streets from side to side
Where is my love ?

Endless fields of emptiness in my dark and wounded heart
Where is my love ?

10. End Of The World

---

Don't you forget what I've told you,
so many years
We are hopeless
And slaves to our fears,
We're an accident called human beings,
Don't be angry for loving the baby
Don't say it's unreal.
So many lies turn to songs,
Like roses who hide in their thorns.

It's the end of the world,
the end of the world.
It's a prison for dreams and for hopes,
And still we believe there is God.
It's the end of the world,
the end of the world.
We're dead though pretend we're alive.
Full of ignorance,
Fools in disguise.

In your room doing nothing
But staring, at flickering screens
Streets are empty,
But still you can hear
Joy of children turning to tears.
Disease hides around every corner,
Quietly still.
Wait for the moment in hit
We forgot, what is touch,
Want to feel.

It's the end of the world,
the end of the world.
It's a prison for dreams and for hopes,
And still we believe there is God.
It's the end of the world,
the end of the world.
We're dead though pretend we're alive.
Full of ignorance,
Fools in disguise.

Take this pill it will make you feel dizzy,
and then give you wings.
Soon boy you're falling to sleep
Without nightmares,
Without any fears.
If you wake up in hell or in heaven
tell the angels we're here,
Waiting below for a dream,
Here in the garden of sin.

It's the end of the world,
the end of the world.
It's a prison for dreams and for hopes,
And still we believe there is God.
It's the end of the world,
the end of the world.
We're dead though pretend we're alive.
Full of ignorance,
Fools in disguise.
