Ash Grey Sunday
I don't want to know
I just want to be
Up inside the life (light?)
Held in front of me
Never felt so empty inside
I can't find the tears to cry
Ash grey Sunday with you
Ash grey Sunday with you

I want to live
where I've never been
In case I try to hide
Think you'll understand
I can't find the tears to cry
Nowhere now ... ?
Ash grey Sunday with you
Ash grey Sunday with you

(repeat first verse)


Tomorrow Changes
The night is calm before the storm
Lying quiet down below
I know you'll try to turn away
This is a place where I can't stay

And when tomorrow changes
Change your mind
Look into these eyes
And when tomorrow changes
Change tonight
Don't say goodbye

The tie that binds...???
And now I feel you don't belong
Strangest tears I'm speaking from
This is all I ever done

And when tomorrow changes
Change your mind
Look into these eyes
When tomorrow changes
Change to light
Don't say goodbye

Now that midnight's door has closed
All the pieces come undone
Find the ashes here and there
Innocent (x4) (or In a song, In a storm, sometihng like that)

Night is calm before the storm
Lying quiet down below
Strangest place that I can't stay
Hang your head down and...
And when tomorrow changes
Change your mind
Look into these eyes
When tomorrow changes
Change tonight
Don't say goodbye


One Way Conversation
One way conversation
Coming down the line
I will take the time to take it

Gone tomorrow, close as yesterday
Gone tomorrow, closer day by day

You're of your own creation
Better hold your tongue
I am of the mind to break you

Gone tomorrow, closer day by day
Gone tomorrow, close as yesterday

(repeat verse one)


Low Life
Seal my fate, it's a simple game, it still has it's uses
Cannot escape, torn and frayed
have the keys to lose it

Low life, it's a low life
Low life, I've been down
and I've had quite a time

Plan to kick, makes me sick
I take no more chances
crooked smile, all the while
a little misunderstanding

Low life, it's a low life
Low life, I've been down
and I've had quite a time

...straight, hours late
no death can refuse me
I'm wide awake, make no mistake
....???

Low life, it's a low life
Low life, I've been down
and I've had quite a time


Crawlspace
Love, merely statellite the sun
It's taking you over
Picturing something that I done
And now I'm going under

Remember how you broke through
All of this and nothing too
Times are dry, well there's nothing to do
But keep hammering away
On the human body

The frame fades out
Won't you come over tonight?
Well I need something this bad (that's bad?)
I don't mind
I'm down here most of the time
Down under the world in a crawlspace

And faith becomes a shadow on the wall
Keep feeling like I do

Don't you wish you could
Find a stray ... hope in your eyes
And leave here with something good
But it's too much to take
For the human body

The frame fades out
Won't you come over tonight?
When I need something this bad
I don't mind
I'm down in it most of the time
Down under the world in a crawlspace

Love, always statellite the sun
It's taking you over
The picture of something that I done
And now I'm going under

The frame fades out
Won't you come over tonight?
I need something this bad
I don't mind
I'm down in it most of the time
Down under the world in a crawlspace


Revelator
Been a long time now we're face to face
The law tore me down and I'm going away
Every peice of it hurts and I know it babe
I've become convinced theere's no other way

And every peice of it hurts

Hold you close here where I stand
I tried for one last breath
I've been awake for days and nights and I know what's true
Destiny is never free
But maybe fate's confusing me
Bring it closer
Show me who you are

Monotone chromium revelator
Hang my head in shame
Monotone chromium revelator
Take my cares away
And every peice of it hurts

Now to the mirror for one last look
at what I took away
the planet's every heart beat passing by
life is bordered every side
I don't exist between the times I said farewell
Friends, don't you know me?

Monotone chromium revelator
Hang my head in shame
Monotone chromium revelator
Take my cares away

Hold you close here where I stand
I tried for one last breath
I've been awake for days and nights and I know what's true
Destiny is never free
But maybe fate's confusing me
Bring it closer
Show me who you are

etc


Anita Grey (straight Trees version)
Lives in the dimming of your eyes
comes from a thousand years behind
born on the wrong side of life
peices of her in your mind
live forever after with Anita Grey on Saturday
don't you want something to say
Anita Grey takes you away
Away

Cry when the best of her goes by
Shine like the echo of the sigh
Peices of her in your mind
born on the wrong side of life
live forever after with Anita Grey on Saturday
don't you want something to say
Anita Grey takes you away
Away

Anita Grey on Saturday
don't you want something to say
Anita Grey takes you away

(repeat first verse)


Anita Grey (Homme version)
Lives in the pinning of your eyes
comes from a thousand years behind
bought on the wrong side of life
pieces of her in your mind
live forever after with Anita Grey on Saturday
don't you want something to say
Anita Grey takes you away
Away

Cry while the best of her goes by
Shine like the echo of the sigh
Pieces of her in your mind
bought on the wrong side of life
live forever after with Anita Grey on Saturday
don't you want something to say
Anita Grey takes you away
Away

Anita Grey on Saturday
don't you want something to say
Anita Grey takes you away

(repeat first verse)
