Snow White Line

If I could write you in the snow
Would from high above it show
Sounds bleak out of all proportions
Through the white lines
Fly the canyon single file
Nothing changes mile by mile
Sun streaks out of all distortion
Through the white lines
Don't go
Don't go
Don't go
Ah hey
If I could melt the angels heat
Magnetic and dignified
I'm slipping so discrete
Sounds cheap just justifications
Through the white lines
Don't go
Don't go
Don't go
Ah hey
Ooh ooh ooh
Just a pinprick in the sphere
Drain the blood and draw the fear
Come clean with the medication
Through the white lines
If I could write you in the snow
Then our destiny I'd know
Sounds bleak in the perspirations
Through the white lines
Don't go
Don't go
Don't go
Ah hey
Ah ah ah

It is so small
Bring it home
I watched you dance inside your pants
I meet your eyes and what they have to say, whoa yeah
You're beating fast, won't you go slow
I beg you, oh but oh I know
I know I know I know I know I know
I know I know I know that you're a
Naughty boy, a silly little wind up toy
C'mon, c'mon, c'mon, c'mon, c'mon
Naughty boy, a silly little wind up toy
C'mon, c'mon, c'mon, c'mon, c'mon
Out my mouth
And over my tongue
Just take it off, just shed your skin
It's all your dreams and all your fantasies, whoa yeah
So take my hand, angel man
We'll fly, we'll fly, let's go, let's go
Let's go, let's go, let's go, let's go
You're so shy but you're a
Naughty boy
Naughty boy
Naughty boy, wind up toy
C'mon, c'mon, c'mon, c'mon, c'mon
C'mon, c'mon, c'mon, c'mon, c'mon
I bet you say that to all the boys
I watched your anger, watched your pain
You drank too much or maybe you're insane, whoa yeah
You're beating fast, won't you go slow
I beg you, oh but oh I know
I know I know I know I know I know
I know I know I know that you're a
Naughty boy
Naughty boy
Naughty boy, wind up toy
C'mon, c'mon, c'mon, c'mon, c'mon

Never Get Enough
03:49
|

Never enough
Time in the moonlight
Tasting the blood
Teasing my lips
Heat seeking eyes
Feel your intention
Even when they’re closed
Never get enough
Never get enough
I can never get enough
It’s all a prelude
To the fact that I
Can never get enough
I’ll play the game
Snake in the water
Sliding between
The here and the now
Never enough
Time in the moonlight
Tasting the salt
Teasing my eyes
Hey
Never get enough
Never get enough
I can never get enough
It’s all a prelude
To the fact that I
Can never get enough
Never get enough
Never get enough
I can never get enough
It’s all a prelude
To the fact that I
Can never get enough
Step into my dream
We’re never going’ down again
Step into my dream
You know what I mean
We’re never gonna drown again
Oh you know what I need
Never get enough
Never get enough
I can never get enough
It’s all a prelude
To the fact that I
Can never get enough
Never get enough
Never get enough
I can never get enough
It’s all a prelude
To the fact that I
Can never get enough

Cry

You've got me on a high
I'm walking on the sky
The summer's here so I
Will leave winter and fly
But what we gonna do?
I leave at half past two
I think we wasted time today
I guess it has to be that way
That I can make you cry
I can make you
Cry (Do do do do do)
Cry (Do do do do do)
You looked into my eye
Still chasing last night’s high
You washed me in the shower
It’s gonna take one hour
Cos you feel that way too
We waste more time each day
And everything's OK
Except that
I can make you cry
I can make you
Cry (Do do do do do)
Cry (Do do do do do)
Cry (Do do do do do)
Cry (Do do do do do)
Uh huh
Uh huh
Uh huh
Do do do do do do do do
Do do do do do do do do
The summer's here again
And it would change but when?
Cos I can make you cry
I can make you
Cry (Do do do do do)
Cry (Do do do do do)
Cry (Do do do do do)
Cry (Do do do do do)

Just a little bit
Roll it over in my head
Hair shine
I’m in it for you
I’m ashamed I feel good
But don’t you want it too
Next time
I’m in it for
Ooh something in the way
You took over me
Ooh something in the way
You took over me
When you took hold of me
You took over me
Just a little bit
I can see right through all this
Next time ah
If only when its starts
I’m ashamed I feel good
But don’t you want it too?
Next time
I’m in it for
Ooh something in the way
You took over me
Ooh something in the way
You took over me
When you took hold of me
You took over me
You took over me
You took over me
Just a little bit
Roll it over in my head
Hair shine
I’m in it for you
I’m ashamed I feel good
But don’t you want it too?
This time
I’m in it for
I’m in it for you…
Ooh something in the way
You took over me
Ooh something in the way
You took over me
When you took hold of me
You took over me
Ooh something in the way
(Something in the way)
Ooh something in the way
(Something in the way)
You took over me
You took over me

Happy When I'm Down
04:12

Hand on my chin
I listen to the rain
I’m wondering
What you’re doing today
I wonder
I’m hoping
Holding on to what I’m feeling
Tell the silence
Be what you will
Told me to stay forever
How can you perceive any doubt
Not knowing how the ending turns out
I don’t wanna wait around for you
You could be the best lover that I knew
I’m alive I buzz around the town
Get happy when I’m down
Get happy when I’m down
Nights are longer but
Be what you want
Be that you don’t go under
How can you decide any cloud
The rain is getting stronger and loud
I don’t wanna wait around for you
You could be the best lover that I knew
I’m alive I buzz around the town
Get happy when I’m down
Get happy when I’m down
I never thought that I could be
So alone and keep a smile
But just now I feel so happy this way
Nights are longer but
Be what you want
Be that you don’t go under
How can you receive any love?
I hold you but it’s never enough
I hold you but it’s never enough
I don’t wanna wait around for you
You could be the best lover that I knew
I’m alive I buzz around the town
Get happy when I’m down
Get happy when I’m down
I don’t wanna wait around for you
You could be the best lover that I knew
I’m alive I buzz around the town
Get happy when I’m down
Get happy when I’m down

Chief!
I picked up
Where you left off
Cos you suck
Where I don’t wanna go
You’ll be down on your knees
Tappin' beats out of time
Racking up the hours
Drinking my wine
You’ll go missing
You
You’ll go missing
DJ BOY
You’ll go missing too
Well alright
You don’t sleep tight
In the glare of my torch light
When you’re all bubbled up
In a sticky mess
Tellin' little lies
For a look up her dress
You’ll go missing
You’ll go missing
You
You’ll go missing
DJ BOY
You’ll go missing too
Chief!
I’m the sphinx
That you can’t jinx
I’m the bomb
And you’re the time it ticks
Cos your glow in the dark
Indiscrete pantomime
Is racking up the hours
On my time
You’ll go missing
You
You’ll go missing
DJ BOY
You’ll go missing too
You’re ass kissing
You’ll go missing
You
You’ll go missing
DJ BOY
You’ll go missing too
Ch ch ch ch ch Chief!

Hey you
What's that sound?
Little bits of warning bouncing off your
Head suck
Suck me dry
Bow down baby to the vampire inside
Aaaaaaaaah
Hey you
What's your problem?
You got fucked by the head you're fucking
Kiss of
Death you bet
Try me baby bite my head
Head
Head
Head
I can see what it does to me
Watch it do a wipe out
See it when I don’t concentrate
Showin’ you the way out
Hey you
Don't belong
In my veins or in my song left
Open for the ride
Watch me baby come inside
You know you know I'll never tell a lie
I can see what it does to me
Watch it do a wipe out
See it when I don’t concentrate
Showin’ you the way out
Hey you
Don't belong
In my veins or in my song left
Open for the ride
Watch me baby come inside
I'll never tell a
Lie you
What's that sound?
Little bits of warning bouncing off your
Head suck
Suck me dry
Bow down baby to the vampire inside
I can see what it does to me
Watch it do a wipe out
See it when I don’t concentrate
Showin’ you the way out

Iron Bird

Night time
Fly the tree
I’m in gold
Follow me
I am told
Past the steam
No-one hears
Iron bird scream
There’s my blinding star
Crashing to the ground
Blood dries
To a salt
Iron bird
So to fly
Who’s it mean?
He’s a bird
Iron winged
Canyon belts
For miles and miles
Ask the point
He’s stuck
A child
It’s his Berlin wall
He dreams to free fall
Blood dries
To a salt
Iron bird
Take my forever
To make it better
Air
I’m not worthy
This world
Tainted dirty
Air
It’s his Berlin wall
He dreams to free fall
Blood dries
To a salt
Iron bird
Blood dries
To a salt
Iron bird

Planet Of Storms
by Video Video
supported by 7 fans who also own “BEACHES”
From the first note, this album time-warped me back to the 80s! While playing it, my wife asked, "Hey, that's great! Who is that?" She usually doesn't express an opinion, so that's quite the recommendation. Anyway, this isn't just derivative nostalgia. These are great songs that'll keep you listening.
