Lyrics to JUMPER
|
JUMPER (Jenkins) I wish you would step back from that ledge my friend, You could cut ties with all the lies, that you've been living in, And if you do not want to see me again, I would understand. I would understand,
The angry boy, a bit too insane, Icing over a secret pain, You know you don't belong, You're the first to fight, You're way too loud, You're The flash of light, On a burial shroud, I know something's wrong, Well everyone I know has got a reason, To say, put the past away,
I wish you would step back from that ledge my friend, You could cut ties with all the lies, That you've been living in, And if you do not want to see me again, I would understand, I would understand.
Well he's on the table, And he's gone to code, And I do not think anyone knows, What they are doing here, And your friends have left, You've been dismissed, I never thought it would come to this, And I, I want you to know, Everyone's got to face down the demons, Maybe today, We can put the past away,
I wish you would step back from that ledge my friend, You could cut ties with all the lies, that you've been living in, And if you do not want to see me again, I would understand, I would understand, I would understand...
Can you put the past away, I wish you would step back from that ledge my friend, I would understand...

SEMI-CHARMED LIFE (Jenkins) I'm packed and I'm holding I'm smiling, she's living, she's golden and she lives for me She says she lives for me Ovation She's got her own motivation she comes round and she goes down on me And I make her smile It's like a drug for you Do ever what you want to do Coming over you Keep on smiling, what we go through One stop to the rhythm that divides you And I speak to you like the chorus to the verse Chop another line like a coda with a curse And I come on like a freak show takes the stage We give them the games we play, she said
I want something else To get me through this Semi-charmed kind of life I want something else I'm not listening when you say Good-bye
The sky it was gold, it was rose I was taking sips of it through my nose And I wish I could get back there Some place back there Smiling in the pictures you would take Doing crystal myth Will lift you up until you break It won't stop I won't come down, I keep stock With a tick-tock rhythm and a bump for the drop And then I bumped up I took the hit I was given Then I bumped again And then I bumped again
How do I get back there to The place where I fell asleep inside you? How do I get myself back to The place where you said
I want something else to get me through this semi-charmed kind of life I want something else I'm not listening when you say good-bye
I believe in the sand beneath my toes The beach gives a feeling An earthy feeling I believe in the faith that grows And the four right chords can make me cry When I'm with you I feel like I could die And that would be all right All right
When the plane came in She said she was crashing The velvet it rips In the city we tripped On the urge to feel alive But now I'm struggling to survive
The days you were wearing That velvet dress You're the priestess, I must confess Those little red panties They pass the test Slide up around the belly Face down on the mattress
One Now you hold me And we're broken Still its all that I want to do
Feel myself with a head made of the ground I'm scared but I'm not coming down And I won't run for my life She's got her jaws just locked now in smile but nothing is all right All right
I want something else To get me through this Semi charmed kind of life I want something else I'm not listening when you say good-bye

Lyrics to HOW'S IT GOING TO BE
|
HOW'S IT GOING TO BE (Jenkins, Cadogan) I'm only pretty sure that I can't take anymore, Before you take a swing, I wonder What are we fighting for, When I say out loud, I want to get out of this, I wonder, Is there anything I'm going to miss,
How's it going to be, When you don't know me, How's it going to be, When you're sure I'm not there, How's it going to be, When there is no one there to talk to about, How it's going to be, 'Cause I don't care, How's it going to be,
Where we used to laugh, There's a shouting match, Sharp as a thumbnail scratch, A silence I can't ignore, Like . . The hammocks and the doorways we spent time in, Swing empty, don't see lightning like last fall when it was always about to hit me, I guess that is how it's going to be. Want to get back in again, The soft dive of oblivion.
