I Still Do
I'm not ready for this
Though I thought I would be
I can't see the future
Though I thought I could see
(chorus)
I don't want to leave you
Even though I have to
I don't want to love you
I still do
Need some time to find myself
I wanna live within
Can I go my own way
Can I pray my own way
I don't want to leave you
I need you
Am I ready for this
Did I think I would be
Can I see the future
No, I can't see
Dreams
Oh my life
Is changing everyday
In every possible way
And Oh my dreams
It's never quiet as it seems
Never quiet as it seems
I know I've felt like this before
But now I'm feeling it even more
Because it came from you
And then I open up and see
The person falling here is me
A different way to be
La
I want more (impossible to ignore)
I want more (impossible to ignore)
And they'll come true (impossible not to do)
And they'll come true (impossible not to do)
And now I tell you openly
You have my heart so don't hurt me
You're what I couldn't find
A totally amazing mind
So understanding and so kind
You're everything to me
Sunday
Oh do you know
( Where to go, where to go )
Something on your mind
(Wanna leave me behind, wanna leave me behind)
You're spinning me around
My feet are off the ground
I dunno know where I stand
Do you have to hold my hand
(You mystify me, you mystify me, you mystify
me)
When you walked into the room
It happened oh so soon
I didn't want to know
Does he really have to go
(You mystify me, you mystify me, you mystify
me)
And he didn't find the words
To say I love you
And he couldn't find the time
To say I need you
(It wouldn't come out right, it wouldn't come
out right)
Just came out all wrong
You're spinning me around
My feet are off the ground
I dunno know where I stand
Do you have to hold my hand
(You mystify me, you mystify me, you mystify
me)
Oh do you know
(Where to go, where to go)
Something on your mind
(Wanna leave me behind, wanna leave me behind)
Pretty
You're so pretty
The way you are
You're so pretty
The way you are
and you have no reason
to be so insolent to me
You're so pretty
The way you are
La, you got to say it if you want to
But you won't change me
La, you got to say it if you want to
But you won't change me
(repeat)
Waltzing Back
Who gave them the right
Waltzing back into
(Your life, Your life)
Now I feel fear
I wish that they'd never come (Here, here,
here)
What they gonna do,what they gonna do
What they gonna say,what they gonna say
Taking you away from
(My life, my life)
Taking you away
(My life, my life)
La (chorus)
Who gave them the right
Turning it back into
(Light, light, light)
Then i felt fear
I wish that they'd never come (Here, here,
here)
What they gonna do
What they gonna say
Taking you away from
(My life, my life, my life)
I don't wanna know
I don't wanna say
I don't wanna say
'Cos it's
(Your life, your life, your life)
Not Sorry
Keep on looking through the window again
But I'm not sorry if I do insult you
I'm sad not sorry 'bout the way that things
went
And you'll be happy and I'll be forsaken thee
I swore I'd never feel like this again
But you're so selfish,you don't see what you're
doing to me
I keep on looking through the window again
No, I'm not sorry if I insult you
No, I'm not sorry if I insult you
(chorus)
You told me lies
(And I cried, and i cried, and i cried)
'Cos you lied, lied and
(I cried, yes i cried, yes i cried)
(I cry, I cry, I cry) again
I realize as
(he sighed and, he sighed and)
'Cos you lied, lied and
(I cried, yes I cried, yes )
(I try, I try, I try ) again
Keep on looking through the window again
But I'm not sorry if I do insult you
I'm sad not sorry 'bout the way that things
went
And you'll be happy and I'll be forsaken thee
I swore I'd never feel like this again
But you're so selfish, you don't see you're
doing to me
I keep on looking through the window again
No I'm not sorry if do detest you
No I'm not sorry if do detest you
(chorus)
keep on looking through the window again
keep on looking through the window again
Linger
If you, if you could return
Don't let it burn,don't let it fade
I'm sure I'm not being rude
But it's just your attitude
It's tearing me apart
It's ruining everything
I swore, I swore I would be true
And honey so did you
So why were you holding her hand
Is that the way we stand
Were you lying all the time
Was it just a game to you
(chorus)
But I m in so deep
You know I'm such a fool for you
You got me wrapped around your finger
Do you have to let it linger
Do you have to, do you have to let it linger
Oh, I thought the world of you
I thought nothing could go wrong
But I was wrong, but I was wrong
If you, if you could get by
Trying not to lie
Things wouldn't be so confused
And I wouldn't feel so used
But you always really knew
I just wanna be with you
Wanted
Sitting in an armchair
With my head between my hands
I wouldn't have to feel like this
If you'd only understand
Too many misunderstandings
Causing such delay
And if it doesn't work like this
Well, I'll try another way
Oh, if this is the way you wanted it
Oh, if this is the way you wanted it
Oh, I didn't understand
Oh, I didn't understand
You know that all I wanted was
To be there by your side
And if you didn't want it
Well, you shouldn't have denied
You knew that you were someone special
Right form the start
But if you treat me badly
We'd be better off apart
Still Can't...
Still can't recognize the way I feel
Nothing of what you said to me was real
And you still can't find the strength to apologize
You just go on laughing and telling everyone
lies
(chorus) 'Cos
( You wanted it all, wanted it all, you wanted
it all)
No, and
(There's nothin' at all, there's nothin' at
all, there's nothin' at all)
Maybe if you could see beyond your nose
Nothing of what had happened surely shows
but your ego excelled and then your attitude
And you went on laughing and shoutin
It's all too shrewd
I Will Always
And now it's all the same to me
So be whatever you want to be
And go wherever you need to go
And when it all seems like a mistake
Take whatever you need to take
And leave the rest for my own sake
I will always
Go beside you
You will always
Understand
And now, it's all the same to me
So be whatever you want to be
And go wherever you need to go
And when there's nothing left behind
taken whatever you needed to
and leave it all into my mind
I will always
Go beside you
You will always
Understand
How
Look, you're standing alone
(Standing alone)
However I should have known
(I should have known)
(chorus 1)
Never before, never before
never again, never again
you will ignore, you will ignore
I will pretend, I will pretend
(chorus 2)
In your world,
You're alone in your face
Your alone in your world
Your alone in your face
How you said you never would leave me alone
How you said you never would leave me alone
Now you're just walking away
(Walking away)
When you said you always would stay
Always would stay
(chorus1 and chorus2 repeat)
Put Me Down
Let me take you
By the hand
Away from here
To another land
Oh this land in which we live
Where people love and are meant to forgive
And you always prove me wrong
'Cos you're always putting me down
I can't take this anymore
I decided to leave
Walked throught the door
Oh, and why do you think I go
Because you know it can never be so
And you always prove me wrong
'Cos you're always putting me down
La, la, la...
Ode To My Family
Understand the things I say
Don't turn away from me
'Cause I've spent half my life out there
You wouldn't disagree
Do you see me? Do you see?
Do you like me? Do you like me standing there?
Do you notice? Do you know?
Do you see me? Do you see me?
Does anyone care?
Unhappiness where's when I was young
And we didn't give a damn
'Cause we were raised
To see life as fun and take it if we can
My mother, my mother she hold me
Did she hold me ,when I was out there
My father, my father, he liked me
Oh he liked me,does anyone care?
Understand what I've become
It wasn't my design
And people everywhere think
Something better than I am
But I miss you, I miss
'Cause I liked it. I liked it
When I was out there
Do you know this ? D'you know
You did not find me, you did not find
Does anyone care?
Unhappiness was when I was young,
And we didn't give a damn
'Cause we were raised
To see life as fun, and take it if we can
To see life as fun and take it if we can
My mother, my mother she hold me
Did she hold me ,when I was out there
My father, my father, he liked me
Oh he liked me,does anyone care?
does anyone care?
I Can't Be With You
Lying in my bed again
And i cry cos' you're not here
Crying in my head again
And I know that it's not clear
Put your hands, Put your hands
Inside my face and see that's it's just you
But it's bad and it's mad
And it's making me sad
Because I can't be with you
Baby I Can't Be With You
Thinking back on how things were
And how we loved so well
I wanted to be the mother
Of your child
and now it's just farewell
Put your hands in my hands
And come with me,
We'll find another end
And my head , and my head
On anyone's shoulder
Cause I can't be with you
Baby I can't be with you
Cause you're not here, you're not here
Baby I can't be with you
Cause you're not here, you're not here
And baby I'm still in love with you
Twenty One
Twenty One was written on the September 6th 1992
I don't think it's going
To happen anymore
You took my thoughts from me
Now i want nothing more
And did you think you
Could just take it all away
I dont think it s happening
This is what I say
Leave me alone
Cause i found it all
Twenty one
So I don't think it's going
To happen anymore
I don't think it's going
To happen anymore

Zombie
Zombie was written on the Cranberries
English Tour 1993.
Man 's inhumanity to man
and worse still, to child
Another head hangs lowly
Child is slowly taken
And the violence caused such silence
Who are we mistaken
But You see it's not me,
It s not my family
In your head,in your
Head they are fighting
With their tanks, and their bombs
And their bombs, and their guns
In your head,
In your head they are cryin'
In your head
Zombie
What's in your head, in your head
Zombie
Another mother's breakin'
Heart is taking over
When the violence causes silence
We must be mistaken
It's the same old theme since 1916
In your head,
In your head they're still fightin'
With their tanks
In your head they are dying
In your head, in your head
Zombie
What's in your head, in your head
Zombie
Empty
Something has left my life
And I don't know where it went to
Somebody caused me stripe
And it's not what I was seeking
Didn't you see me, didn't you hear me
Didn't you see me standing there
Why did you turn out the lights
Did you know that I was sleeping
Say a prayer for me
Help to feel the strength I did
My identity has it been taken
Is my heart breaking on me
All my plans fell through my hands
They fell
Through my hands on me
All my dreams it suddenly seems
Empty
Everything I Said
It makes me lonely
It makes me very lonely
When I see you there, waitin'on
It makes me tired, It makes me very tired
And inside of me, lingers on
But you have your heart
Don t believe it, and you will find it
Waitin'on
Everything I said, oh, well I meant it
And inside my head, holdin'on
'Cos if I died tonight
Would you hold my hand, no
Would you understand
And if I lived in spite
Would you still be there, no
Would you disappear
Surely must be you
But I don t make you lonely
I'll get over you
But I don 't make you lonely
The Icicle Melts
When
When will the icicle melt,
And when
When will the picture show end
I should not have read the papers today
'Cause a child,child he was taken away
There's a place for the baby that died
And there's a time for the mother who cried
And she will hold him in her arms sometimes
'Cause nine months is too long
How could you hurt a child
Now does this make you satisfied
I don't know what's
happening to people today
When a child, he was taken away
There's a place for the baby that died
There's a time for the mother that cried
And she will hold him in
her arms sometimes
'Cause nine months is too long
There's a place for the baby that died
And there's a time for the mother that cried
And you will hold him in
your arms sometimes
'Cause nine months is too long
Disappointment
Written on making a clear decision, no more struggle inside...
Disappointment you shouldn't have done
You couldn't have done
You wouldn't have done
the things you did there
And we could 've been happy
What a piteous thing, a hideous thing
was tainted by the rest
But it won't get any harder
And I hope you'll find your way again
But it won't get any higher
But it all boils down to what you did there
In the night we fight, I feel you're right
It was exactly there
I decided
and drew you out
In the night we fight, I feel you're right
It was exactly there
I decided
But it won't get any harder
And I hope you'll find your way again
But it won't get any higher
But it all boils down to what you did there
Dissapointment
Ridiculous Thoughts
Twister does anyone see through you
You re a twister an animal
But you're happy now
I didn't go along with you
So happy now
But you re going to have to hold on
Hold on
Or we're going to have to move on
Move on
I feel alright
And I cried so hard
The ridiculous thoughts
I feel alright
Twister. I shouldn't have trusted you
Twister
It's not going to happen no
You re not going to make fun of me
Happen no
But you re going to have to hold on
You re going to have to hold on
Hold on
Or we're going to have to move on
Move on
I feel alright
And I cried so hard
The ridiculous thoughts
I feel alright
I should have lied
And I cried so hard
The ridiculous thoughts
I should ha' lied
But you re gonna have to hold on
Hold on
but you're gonna have to hold on to me
Dreaming My Dreams
Dreaming my dreams was written on december 25th 1993,
Where i found happiness
Dedicated to my husband, lover, best friend, support.
What more can be said ?
All the things you said to me today
Changed my perspective in every way
These things count to mean
so much to me
Into my faith you
And your baby
It s out there
If you want me
I'll be there
It's out there
I'll be dreaming my dreams
With you
And there's no other places
That I'd lay down my face
I'll be dreaming my dreams with you
It's out there
If you want me,I'll be here
I'll be dreaming my dreams with you
And there's no other places that I'd
lay down my face
I'll be dreaming my dreams with you
Yeat's Grave
Silenced by death in the grave
W B Yeats couldn't save
Why did you stand there
'Where you sickened in time
But I know by now
Why did you sit here?
In the GRAVE
W.B. Yeats "Second"
Why should I blame her
That she filled my days
With misery or that she would of late
Have taught to ignorant men violent ways
Or hurled the little street upon the great
Had they but courage
Equals to desire
Sad that Maud Gonne Couldn't stay
But she had Mac Bride anyway
And you sit here with me
On the isle Inisfree
And you writing down everything
But i know by now
Why did you sit here
In the grave...
Why should I blame her
Had they but courage equals to desire
This song has been written with inspiration from theses
William Butler Yeats poems:
------------------------
William Butler Yeats
(1865 - 1939)
------------------------
THE LAKE ISLE OF INNISFREE
I will arise and go now, and go to Innisfree,
And a small cabin build there, of clay and
wattles made:
Nine bean-rows will I have there, a hive for
the honey-bee,
And live alone in the bee-loud glade.
And I shall have some peace there, for peace
comes dropping slow,
Dropping from the veils of the morning to
where the cricket sings;
There midnight's all a glimmer, and noon a
purple glow,
And evening full of the linnet's wings.
I will arise and go now, for always night and
day
I hear lake water lapping with low sounds
by the shore;
While I stand on the roadway, or on the pavements
gray,
I hear it in the deep heart's core.
NO SECOND TROY
Why should I blame her that she filled my days
With misery, or that she would of late
Have taught to ignorant men most violent ways,
Or hurled the little streets upon the great,
Had they but courage equal to desire?
What could have made her peaceful with a mind
That nobleness made simple as a fire,
With beauty like a tightened bow, a kind
That is not natural in an age like this.
Being high and solitary and most stern?
Why, what could she have done being what she
is?
Was there another Troy for her to burn?
Daffodil Lament
Holding on that's what I do
Since I met you
And it won't be long, would you notice
If I left you
And it's fine for some
Cause you're not he one,
All night long, I laid on my pillow
Theses things are wrong
I can't sleep here
So lonely, so lonely
I have decided to leave you forever
I have decided to start things from here
Thunder and lightning won't change
What I'm feeling
And the daffodils look lovely today
Oh in your eyes I can see the disguise
Oh in your eyes I can see the dismay
Has anyone seen lightning
Has anyone looked lovely
And the daffodils looked lovely today
Looked lovely
No Need To Argue
There 's no need to argue anymore
I gave all i could
But it left me so sore
And the thing that makes me mad
is the one thing that I had
I knew, I knew I'd loose you
You 'll always be special to me
And I remember all the
Things we once shared
Watching TV movies on
the living room armchair
But they say it will work out fine
Was it all a waste of time
Cause I knew, I knew I'd loose you
You 'll always be special to me
Will I forget in time
You said I was on your mind
There 's no need to argue
No need to argue anymore
There 's no need to argue anymore
Special
Hollywood
I've got a picture in my head (in my head)
It's me and you , we are in bed (we are in
bed)
You'll always be there when I call (when I
call)
You'll always be there most of all. (all,

This is not Hollywood,

Salvation
To all those people doing lines, don't do it,
don't do it.
Inject your soul with liberty, it's free,
it's free.
To all the kids with heroin eyes *, don't do
it, don't do it.
Because it's not, not what it seems.
No, no it's not, not what it seems
Salvation, salvation, salvation is free.
Salvation, salvation, salvation is free.
To all those parents with sleepless nights,

Tie your kids on to their beds, clear their
heads.

When You're Gone
Hold on to love. That is what I do,
Now that I've found you.
And from above, everything's stinking,
Their not around you.
And in the night, I could be helpless
I could be lonely, sleeping without you.
And in the day, everything's complex
There's nothing simple, when I'm not around
you.
But, I miss you when you're gone.
That is what I do, Bay, Bay, Bay
And it's going to carry on,
That is what I knew, Bay, Bay, Bay
Hold on to my hand,
I feel I'm sinking, sinking without you.
And to my mind, everything's stinking
Stinking without you.
And in the night, I could be helpless,
I could be lonely, sleeping without you.
And in the day, everything's complex,
There's nothing simple, when I'm not around
you.
And I miss you when you're gone.
That is what I do, Bay, Bay, Bay
And it's going to carry on,
That is what I do, Bay, Bay, Bay
Free To Decide
It's not worth anything more than this at all
I live as I choose or I will not live at all.
So return to where you've come from.
Return to where you dwell.
Because harassments not my forte,
But you do it very well.
I'm Free To Decide, I'm Free To Decide
And I'm not so suicidal after all.
I'm Free To Decide, I'm Free To Decide
And I'm not so suicidal after all. (At all,
at all, at all)
You must have nothing more with your time to
do.
There's a war in Russia and Sarejevo, too.
So to hell with want your thinking.
And to hell with your narrow of mind.
You're so distracted from the real thing.
You should leave your life behind. (behind)
I'm Free To Decide, I'm Free To Decide
And I'm not so suicidal after all.
I'm Free To Decide, I'm Free To Decide
And I'm not so suicidal after all. (At all,
at all, at all)
I'm Free To Decide, I'm Free To Decide
And I'm not so suicidal after all. (At all,
at all, at all)
At all, At all, At all!
War Child
Who will save the War Child baby?
Who controls the keys?
The web we weave is thick and sordid.
Fine by me.
At times of war.
We're all the losers,
There's no victory.
We'll shoot to kill, and kill your lover.
Fine by me.
War Child!
Victim of political Pride.
Plant the seed, territorial Greed.
Mind, the War Child.
We should mind, the War Child.
I spent last winter in New York,
And came upon a man.
He was sleeping on the streets and homeless,
He said, "I fought in Vietnam."
Beneath his shirt he wore the mark,
He bore the mark of Pride.
A two-inch deep incision carved,
Into his side.
War Child!
Victim of political Pride.
Plant the seed, territorial Greed.
Mind, the War Child.
We should mind, the War Child.
Whose the loser now, eh?
Whose the loser now, eh?
We're all the losers now!
We're all the losers now!
War Child, War Child
Forever Yellow Skies
Yellow Skies, I can see the Yellow Skies.
See you again, I see you again
In my dreams, in my dreams, in my dreams,
in my dreams.
Morning light, I remember morning light.
Outside my doors, I 'll see you no more.
In my dreams, in my dreams, in my dreams,
in my dreams
Forever, Forever I'll be forever holding you.
Forever, Forever I'll be forever holding you.
Responsible, Responsible, Responsible, Responsible.
So black and white,
It's become so black and white.
So insecure, You're so insecure,
That's what you are, That's what you are,
That's what you are, That's what you are.
Forever, Forever I'll be forever holding you.
Forever, Forever I'll be forever holding you.
Responsible, Responsible, Responsible, Responsible.
Forever, Forever I'll be forever holding you.
Forever, Forever I'll be forever holding you.
Responsible, Responsible, Responsible, Responsible.
The Rebels
Seems like yesterday we were sixteen,
We were The Rebels of the Rebel Scene.
We wore Doc Martens in the sun,
Drinking vintage cider having fun.
We were, drinking vintage cider having fun.
It wasn't often, that we'd fight at all! It
wasn't often!
It wasn't often, that we'd fight at all! It
wasn't often!
We wore Doc Martens in the snow,
Paint our toenails black and let our hair
grow.
What I am now is what I was then,
I am not more acceptable then them.
I am not more acceptable then them.
It wasn't often, that we'd fight at all! It
wasn't often!
It wasn't often, that we'd fight at all! It
wasn't often!
It wasn't often, It wasn't often,
It wasn't often, It wasn't often,
It wasn't often, It wasn't often,
It wasn't often, It wasn't often.
Seems like yesterday we were sixteen,
We were The Rebels of the Rebel Scene.
I Just Shot John Lennon
It was the fearful night of December 8th,
He was returning home from the studio, late.
He had perceptively known that it wouldn't
be nice.
Because in 1980, he paid the price.
John Lennon died, John Lennon died, John Lennon
died!
John Lennon died, John Lennon died, John Lennon
died!
With a Smith & Wesson, 38
John Lennon's life was no longer a debate.
He should have stayed at home, he should have
never cared.
And the man who took his life declared, he
said,
"I Just Shot John Lennon!"
He said, "I Just Shot John Lennon!"
What a sad and sorry and sickening sight.
What a sad and sorry and sickening night,
What a sad and sorry and sickening sight,
What a sad and sorry and sickening night!
"I Just Shot John Lennon!"
He said, "I Just Shot John Lennon!"
What a sad and sorry and sickening sight.
What a sad and sorry and sickening night,
What a sad and sorry and sickening sight,
What a sad and sorry and sickening night!
Electric Blue
Electric blue eyes, where did you come from?
Electric blue eyes, who sent you?
Electric blue eyes, always be near me.
Electric blue eyes, I need you.
Domine, Domine, Deus,
Domine, Adiuva Me,
Domine, Domine, Deus,
Domine, Adiuva Me,
Hey, eh, hey, eh

I'm Still Remembering
I'm still remembering the day
I gave my life away.
I'm still remembering the time
You said you'd be mine.
Yesterday was cold and bare
Because you were not there.
Yesterday was cold
My story has been told.
I need your affection all the way.
The world is changing and has changed away
(way).
I try to remain.
I'm trying not to go insane.
I need your affection all the way.
I'm still remembering my life
Before I became your wife.
I'm still remembering the pain
And the mind games.
Reverse psychology, never tainted me.
I didn't sell my soul, I didn't sell my soul.
I need your affection all the way.
The world is changing and has changed away
(way).
I try to remain.
I'm trying not to go insane.
I need your affection all the way.
They say the cream'll always
Rise to the top.
They say that good people
Are always first to drop.
What of Kurt Cobain,
Will his presence still remain?
Remember J. F. K.,
Ever saintly in a way.
Where are you now?
Where are you now?
Where are you now?
I say, where are you now?
I need your affection all the way.
I need your affection all the way.
I need your affection all the way.
I need your affection all the way.
Will You Remember
Will you remember the dress I wore?
Will you remember my face?
Will you remember the lipstick I wore?
This world is a wonderful place.
Will you remember the black limousine?
Will you remember champagne?
Will you remember the things that we see?
I will return here again.
Will you remember the flowers in my hand?
Will you remember my hair?
Will you remember the future we planned?
The world is not waiting out there.
I won't remember the dress I wore.
I won't remember champagne.
I won't remember the things that we swore.
I will just love you in vain.
Will you remember?
Will you recall?
Will you remember?
Joe
There was a time, I was so lonely. (away)
Remember the time, It was a Friday. (away)
You made me feel fine, We did it my way. (away)
I sat on your knees, every Friday. (away)
(We walked in fields of golden hay)
I still recall you.
(We walked in fields of golden hay)
I see you in the summer.
Joe, Joe
I sat on your chair by the fire. (away)
Transfixed in a stare taking me higher. (away)
Precious years to remember. (away)
Childhood fears I surrender. (away)
(We walked in fields of golden hay)
I still recall you.
(We walked in fields of golden hay)
I see you in the summer.

The Picture I View
I haven't changed
But my life has
People are strange when it's like as
I did something wrong to them
And I don't even know your name...
(No, I don't even know your name)
I swear that he's good for me,
And I swear he looks after me,
And I swear that he looks out for me...
And I swear that he's good, good, good.
La, la, la, The picture I view
La, la, la, The picture I view
All my plans and promises
Went tumbling down the hill
All my friends and promises
Went tumbling down the hill
They went tumbling down the hill
I haven't changed, but my life has
People are strange when it's like as
I did something wrong to them
And I don't even know your name.
(No, I don't even know your name)
(I don't even know your name)
Cordell
Once you ruled my mind
I thought you'd always be there
And I'll always hold on to your face
But everything changes in time
And the answers are not always fair
And I hope you've gone to a better place
Cordell
Time will tell
They say that you've passed away
And I hope you've gone to a better place
Time will tell
Time will tell
They say that you've passed away
And I know that you've gone to a better place
Cordell...Cordell....Cordell...Cordell
Cordell...Cordell....Cordell
Your lover and baby will cry
But you presence will always remain
Is this how it was meant to be?
You meant something more to me
Than what many people will see
And to hell with the industry.
Cordell
Time will tell
They say that you've passed away
And I hope you've gone to a better place
Time will tell
Time will tell
We all will depart and decay
And we all will return to a better place
Cordell...Cordell.....Cordell....Cordell
Cordell....Cordell....Cordell
Bosnia
I would like to state my vision,
Life was so unfair.
We live in our secure surroundings,
And people die out there.
Bosnia, was so unkind,
Sarejevo, change my mind.
And we all call out in despair.
All the love we need isn't there.
And we all sing songs in our rooms,
Sarejevo erects another tomb.
Sarejevo! Sarejevo! Sarejevo! Sarejevo!
Bosnia, was so unkind.
Sarejevo! Sarejevo! Sarejevo!
Bosnia, was so unkind.
Sure, things would change
If we really wanted them to.
No fear for children anymore,
There are babies in their beds.
Terror in their heads,
Love for the love of life!
When do the saints go marching in?
When do the saints go marching in?
When do the saints go marching in?
When do the saints go marching in?

Animal Instinct
Suddenly something has happened to me
As I was having my cup of tea
Suddenly I was feeling depressed
I was utterly and totally stressed
Do you know you made me cry
Do you know you made me die
And the thing that gets to me
Is you'll never really see
And the thing that freaks me out
Is I'll always be in doubt
It is a lovely thing that we have
It is a lovely thing that we
It is a lovely thing, the animal
The animal instinct
So take my hands and come with me
We will change reality
So take my hands and we will pray
They won't take you away
They will never make me cry, no
They will never make me die
And the thing that gets to me
Is you'll never really see
And the thing that freaks me out
Is I'll always be in doubt
The animal, the animal, the animal instinct in me It's the animal, the
animal, the
animal instinct in me It's the animal, it's the animal, it's the animal
instinct in me

Loud And Clear
I hope that you miss me
Put me down on history
I feel such a reject now
Get yourself a life
I hope that you're sorry
For not accepting me
For not adoring me
That's why I'm not your wife
People are stranger
People in danger
People are stranger
People deranged or
I remember there was
Nothing I could ever do
Never could impress you
Even if I tried
Tell somebody who cares
Fill the room with empty stares
Go to bed and say my prayers
Keep them satisfied
People are stranger
People in danger
People are stranger
People deranged
Loud and clear I make my point my dear
I hope that you never
Get the things you wanted to
Now I cast a spell on you
Complicate your life
Hope you get a puncture
Everywhere you ever drive
Hope the sun beats down on you and
Skin youself alive Ra la la la la la la la - Ra la la la la la la la

Promises
Uh... You better belive I'm coming
You better believe what I say
You better hold on to your promises
Because you bet, you'll get what you deserve
She's going to leave him over
She's gonna take her love away
So much for your eternal vows, well
It does not matter anyway
Why can't you stay here awhile
Stay here awhile Stay with me (Estribillo)
Oh, all the promises we made
All the meaningless and empty words I prayed, prayed, prayed
Oh, all the promises we broke
All the meaningless and empty words I spoke, spoke, spoke
Do-do-do, Do-do-do, Do-do-do, Do-do-do
What of all the things that you taught me
What of all the things that you'd say
What of all your prophetic preaching
You're just throwing it all away
Maybe we should burn the house down
Have ourselves another fight
Leave the cobwebs in the closet
'Cos tearing them out is just not right
Why can't you stay here awhile
Stay here awhile Stay with me, oh oh Estribillo Oh eh, oh eh, oh eh,
oh eh, Oh
Eh x3

Just My Imagination
There was a game we used to play
We would hit the town on Friday night
And stay in bed until Sunday
We used to be so free
We were living for the love we had and
Living not for reality
It was just my imagination x3
There was a time I used to pray
I have always kept my faith in love
It's the greatest thing from the man above
The game I used to play
I've always put my cards upon the table
Let it never be said that I'd be unstable
It was just my imagination x3
There is a game I like to play
I like to hit the town on Friday night
And stay in bed until Sunday
We'll always be this free
We will be living for the love we have
Living not for reality
It's not my imagination x3 Not my x18
Shattered
I'm trying to control myself
So please don't stand in my way
I've waited for the longest time
This is what I wanted in my way
Move over, move over
There's a climax coming in my way
Move over, move over
There's a climax coming in my way (Estribillo)
I don't like you, don't compromise
Shattered by your weakness
Shattered by your smile
And I'm not very fond of you, and your lies
Shattered by your weaknesses
Shattered by your smile
All the kids are going back to school
The summer's over it's the golden rule
And now I'm coming out to play
So please don't stand in my way
And all the things that seemed once to be
So important to me
Seem so trivial now that I can see
Move over, move over
There's a climax coming my way x2 Estribillo
Please don't stand in my way

Fee Fi Fo
Fee fi fo she smells his body
She smells his body
And it makes her sick to her mind
He has got so much to answer for
To answer for, To ruin a child's mind
How could you touch something
So innocent and pure
Obscure
How could you get satisfaction
From the body of a child You're vile, sick (Estribillo)
It's true what people say
God protect the ones who help themselves
In their own way
It's true what people say
God protect the ones who help themselves

He was sitting in her bedroom In her bedroom
And now what should she do
She's got so much insecurity
And his impurity
It was a gathering gloom
How could you touch something
So innocent and pure
Obscure
How could you get satisfaction
From the body of a child
You're a vile, sick Estribillo x2

I had to be cruel to be kind
We have to leave the past behind

And isn't it weird how people I feared
They all seem worthless now
I will ride on my bicycle,

As I'm riding on my tricycle,
I ride I see the sun in the trees, and I feel the psychedelic breeze
And I see the sun in the trees, and I feel the psychedelic breeze
Sorry son, this is what I've done
This is what I've done It was a long sad supper without you
Please don't hold me responsible
I tried and tried It wasn't the same without my brain
It wasn't a game, it wasn't a game
Oh not now I will ride on my bicycle, I ride thinking of you
As I'm riding on my tricycle,
I ride I see the sun in the trees, and I feel the psychedelic breeze

Why did you bring me here.
Nothing Left At All
Know it's over but the thoughts of you go on,
Nothing here, nothing left at all.
How I swore that I would would never feel like
this again,
But then you , you brought it through.
Oh no is there any reason I should walk away,
Is it wrong, is it wrong to want to stay,
And I know if I had the choice I'd never let
you go,
Do you know, do you really want to know.
Well now the thoughts of you just circle in
my mind,
Hard to find, you were really hard to find.
Oh and although, though I swore I'd never feel
like this again,
I can't take it anymore.
Because I know if I had the choice I'd never
let you go,
Do you know, do you really want to know.
And I didn't think, I didn't think I'd think
about you in this way,
Well really, you really made my day.
Now, now it's over but the thoughts of you

again,
But then you, you brought it through.

Them
Don't listen to what they say,
Make up your mind, walk away,
Oh don't even give them the time of day,
They put you wrong, turn away.
So why'd they all just walk away,
There was something wrong,
But you don't want to say.
Oh why did they listen to someone else,
I did something wrong,
Something...[Drum crash]
Oh that attitude,
They all got that attitude.
Something they say,
Make up your mind, walk away,
Oh oh never happen again,
They've all gone wrong, gone insane.
That's why they all just walked away,
There was nothing wrong,
Didn't want to say.
Oh that's why they listened to somebody else,
I did nothing wrong,
Nothing I could say.
That's why, that's why,
That's why, that's why,
Take my soul away ? (early stuff)
That was some revealing light,
That you shone on me last night,
Have you turned away from me,
Because you know that I can't see.
But if you leave me in the night,
Well then you're leaving me in spite,
And if you leave me in the day,
Well then you'll take my soul away,
Away now. Away, away now.
Nothing ever happens to me,
Oh I still can't see the things that you see,
Was anybody there,
Does anybody care.
I've nobody to show me the way,
I've nobody to tell me to stay,
No nobody was there,
No nobody does care.
That was some revealing light,
That you shone on me last night,
Have you turned away from me,
Because you know that I can't see.
But if you leave me in the night,
Well then you're leaving me in spite,
And if you leave me in the day,
Well then you'll take my soul away,
Away now. Away, away now.
But if you leave me in the night,
Well then you're leaving me in spite,
And if you leave me in the day,
Well then you'll take my soul away,
Away now. Away, away now.
Like You Used To (early stuff)
When I think about the things I said to you
last night
Well I was wrong, I didn't know what I was
saying
Anything that wants you
You used to hold me so tight
But now it's gone, and you drastically ??
Don't you love me anymore, anymore?
Don't you see me, like you used to?
Like you used to
You used to see me like nobody else could
And now it's gone, the way you're falling
forever, ever
And when they told me then that you were no
more
Should I leave? Or should I take it all behind
me?
Don't you love me anymore, anymore?
Don't you see me, like you used to?
Like you used to
I'm falling down
Falling down, falling down, falling down
I'm falling down
Falling down, falling down, falling down
I believe you
Reason (can be found on EP Linger US )
Nothing to say,
Nothing to do,
Nowhere to go,
And I can't get over it and be with you
I don't know what to say
I don't know what to do
I don't know what you want
Is there anything that I can do?
Cos if you weren't somewhere else instead
If you were in someone else's bed
If you were...
The look on your face
You'd told us to come here
A reason to be
Escaping from reality
I'll fight you in fear, indefinitely
A reason to be
Escaping from reality
Cos if you weren't someone else instead
If you were in someone else's head
If you were...
Nothing to say
Nothing to do
Nowhere to go
And I can't get over it and be with you
I don't know what to say
I don't know what to do
I don't know what you want
Is there anything that I should do?
Cos if you in someone else's bed
If you were in someone else's head
If you were...
Liar
Say it if you want to
and say it if you will
but if you don't say what you are thinking

And all you do is lie to me
cos you're a liar liar liar
I will run i will fight
I will take you through the night
lie lie liar

False
Something has changed and I don't know what
to say.
I used to stand here alone and in my mind
say...
The people who're calling you soon turn away
they could hate you tomorrow and love you
today..
because they're false
people can be so false sometimes
when they hold my hands
people can be so false sometimes
Something is standing in my way and I can't
see
It's clouding up my vision it intimidates
me
I didn't want to come here in the first place
you all designed it you all designed it
because they're false
people can be so false sometimes
when they hold my hands
people can be so false sometimes
I didn't want it
I didn't want to come here...
in the first place
I didn't want it
I didn't want to come here...
in the first place
What you Were (Dreams UK part 1 EP)
Now it's easy for me too see
?????????
Life was so lonely
And you never understood
You never really could
You were wrong
What you were
What you were, I couldn't say
'Cause you left me here behind
In a stupid state of mind
And I'm lonely
Yeah, you left me here behind
In a stupid state of mind and you're gone
'Cause you left me here behind
In a stupid state of mind and you're gone
What you were
What you were, I couldn't say
It took something hard like this
Mistaken to resist
And I'm lonely
So Cold In Ireland (Ode to my family part 1
EP)
Here is a story
of hope and of glory.
He's eighteen years old
and well I fell in love.
But after that,
where have you gone, from me?
The one that I loved endlessly.
We used to have a life,
but now it's all gone.
Mystify...
Does it have to be so cold in Ireland?
Does it have to be so cold in Ireland, for
me?
Are they ready for me?
Where have you gone, from me?
The one that I loved endlessly.
We were to have a child.
Yesterday's gone.
Well I knew the time would come.
When I'd have to leave.
Go on.
Look what they've done to me.
They've taken my hand...
And it's killing me.
Killing me, killing me, killing me!
Does it have to be so cold in Ireland?
Does it have to be so cold in Ireland, for
me?
Are they ready for me?
But I'm afraid I'm returning to Ireland.
I'm afraid I'm returning to Ireland.
I see, that there is nothing for me.
There is nothing for me.

I Don't Need (From Zombie part 1)
The world is consuming me and I don't feel
so happy here today
I'm numb and I don't feel and I used to be
a baby in my head
So where is the one you love? Does she hold
you happy next to her?
And your head hangs lightly and everyone's
slightly drunk tonight
They're drunk tonight again, la-la-la etc.
I Don't need to see you, no, no, no etc.
I Don't need to see you, no, no, no etc.
My head it is hanging now and my eyes are on
the ground, the ground,
the ground
And everyone's so patronizing I don't see
when the real things comes
around
So where is your mother now, did she hold
you happy next to her
And your head hangs lightly and everyone's
slightly drunk tonight
They're drunk tonight again, la-la-la etc.
I Don't need to see you, no, no, no etc.
I Don't need to see you, no, no, no etc.
And maybe no work done today, no work done
today. No. No. No.
No work done today. No. No. No. No, work done
today.
Close To You (From the Carpenters)
Why do birds suddenly appear
Everytime you are near?
Just like me, they long to be
Close to you.
Why do stars fall down from the sky
Every time you walk by?
Just like me, they long to be
Close to you.
On the day that you were born
The angels got together
And decided to create a dream come true
So they sprinkled moondust in your hair of
gold
And starlight in your eyes of blue.
That is why all the girls (boys) in town
Follow you all around.
Just like me, they long to be
Close to you.
On the day that you were born
The angels got together
And decided to create a dream come true
So they sprinkled moondust in your hair of
gold
And starlight in your eyes of blue.
That is why all the girls (boys) in town
Follow you all around.
Just like me, they long to be
Close to you.
Just like me (Just like me)
They long to be
Close to you.
Wahhhhhhhhhhh, close to you.
Wahhhhhhhhhhh, close to you.
Hahhhhhhhhhhh, close to you.
Lahhhhhhhhhhh, close to you.
The Sun Does Rise (From Jah Wobble EP & LP)
Nightime has gone when all was still
Moon shone the way as we climbed the hill
When we arrived we raised our hands
Now the dawn has come now we understand
The sun does rise in the eastern sky
and love soon comes watch over I The road
was long yes we travelled far
Through long dark nights without guiding star
Visions of an angel came along the way
Told us "don't be fearful for there comes
a brighter day"
This journey's been an epic
Sometimes I've been so down
Stranded in a lonely bar the other side of
town
Yes we've travelled day and night for many
a pour mile
Now it all makes sense as we see the morning

Official Lyrics taken from the CD
God Be With You (From Devil's Own
soundtrack )
The truth will never hide
Even though I tried
They tried to take my pride
But they only took my father from me
They only took my father
Even though I cried
Even though I tried again
God be with you Ireland
God be with you Ireland
Sometimes I was afraid
Even though I prayed
I've lost my religion now
You took that too somehow
Blood upon thy hands
Blood upon thy hands again
(I have served my time)
God be with you Ireland
(Suffered for my crime)
God be with you Ireland
(I have served my time)
God be with you Ireland
(Suffered for my crime)
God be with you Ireland
(God be with you now)
(God be with you now)
(God be with you now)
(God be with you now)
Yesterday's Gone
I heard she loved you,
I heard she cared,
I heard she miscarried
And you were scared.
Did you run, from the one, who conceived your
child?
Yesterday's Gone, there's no return,
And she cries all night.
I bleive that a woman can be,
A slave to the man.
I believe that love we can make,
And I try if I can
Will you return, to the one, who conceived
your child?
Yesterday's Gone, there's no return,
And she cries all night.
Did you run, from the one, who conceived your
child?
Yesterday's Gone, there's no return,
And she cries all night.
