(Massive Attack)

Don't tell your man what he don't do right
Nor tell him all the things that make you cry
But check yourself for your own shit
And don't be making out like it's all his

Take a look around the world
You see such bad things happening
There are many good men
Ask yourself is he one of them

The deadliest of sin is pride
Make you feel like you're always right
But they're always two sides
It takes two to make love, two to make a life

Take a look around the world
You see such mad things happening
There are few good men
Thank your lucky star that he's one of them

. . .



A scream a shout far in the distance
Maybe the first or second floor
Curtains colouring the windows
Never see behind closed doors
A silent siege behind politeness
Domestic harmony for show
Lost in the mirage of a marriage
Outside a world she'll never know

And as I see through the real you
I'm falling straight into
A thousand broken Mirrors
I can't hide
And outside the bright lights
Can't hide the pain inside
And I've broken a thousand mirrors
Now it's time
Now it's time
Now it's time
Now it's time

Loving her children with a passion
Protecting them at any cost
Taking the only course of action
There's no more bridges left to cross
Who are the ones that are the guilty?
Who are the ones that bear the scar?
We must not leave our sisters bleeding
We sing this song for Tsoora Shah
And as I see through the real you
I'm falling Straight into
A thousand broken Mirrors
I can't hide
And outside the bright lights
Can't hide the pain inside
And I've broken a thousand mirrors
Now it's time
Now it's time
Now it's time
Now it's time

. . .


Bob The Bass featuring Benjamin Zephanian and Sinéad O'Connor

I'm looking at your soul, your soul, your soul, your soul
I'm looking at your future, your future, future, future
As I look into your eyes, these eyes, these eyes, these eyes
I see another side, side, side, side
Vampire, you're feed on the life of a pure heart
Vampire you suck the life of goodness
Vampire, you're feed on the life of a pure heart
Vampire you suck the life of goodness
Turn the lights on
Let the lights shine bright
Turn the lights on
Let the lights shine bright
You've got to feel yourself and let go
You got to know you reap what you sown
You've got to feel something at sometime
Check the writings on the wall
And look into the sight
You're spending all your money on gare that never work
you're wasting all your energy and everywhere it hurts
God it really hurts
yes it really hurts
you got to know yourself
Vampire, you're feed on the life of a pure heart
Vampire, you suck the life of goodness
Yes
Vampire, you're feed on the life of a pure heart
Vampire you suck the life of goodness
From now on I'll call you England
From now on I'll call you England
From now on I'll call you England
From now on I'll call you England
See if you spit in the sky
It will fall in your eye
You see what goes up must come down
You will die looking up if you're not looking in
you've got to know yourself
I'm looking at your partners and they would never agree
I'm looking for your justice and it can not be seen
I'm checking where you're coming from and where you're going to
I'm checking all off what you have done to see what you can do
I'm looking at your lawbooks and they were never read
I'm looking at your lovesquire and they can not be thread
I'm looking at your empire living on the drears
You've got to know yourself
Vampire, you're feed on the life of a pure heart
Vampire, you suck the life of goodness
Yes
Vampire, you're feed on the life of a pure heart
Vampire you suck the life of goodness
From now on I'll call you England
Empire fall man, empire go
From now on I'll call you England
There's a lesson to be learned
Why is it that, you must know
From now on I'll call you England
and the rich that you eat is more like food that you fear
From now on I'll call you England
gotta see no love anyway you appear
From now on I'll call you England
you've got to know yourself
from now on I'll call you England
you've got to know yourself

. . .

(feat. Jah Wobble's Invaders Of The Heart)

I'm not numbed that anymore
Not longer feel the hate and pain
No longer dranched in shame
I'm not numbed that anymore
Now I am the key to the door
The kingdom of heaven lies inside
Makes a cirlce with the turning tide
Now the circle is complete
And the heart and mind they need
The kingdom of heaven lies inside

I love visions of you endlessly
I love visions of you endless

It's a vision for me and for you
Hell can be a circle too
With pentation unbroken
And the truth remains unspoken
A vision for me and for you

I love visions of you endlessly
I love visions of you endlessly
I love visions of you endlessly
I love visions of you endlessly

I love visions of you endlessly
I love visions of you endlessly

I'm not numbed that anymore
No longer feel the hate and pain
No longer dranched in shame
I'm not numbed that anymore
Now I am the key to the door

I love visions of you endlessly
I love visions of you endlessly
I love visions of you endlessly
I love visions of you
I love
Visions of you
I love visions of you endlessly
I love
Visions of you

. . .


(feat. Afro Celt Sound System)

[English translation]

Don't argue amongst yourselves
Because of the loss of me
I'm sitting amongst yourselves
Don't think you can't see me
Don't argue amongst yourselves
Because of the loss of me
I haven't gone anywhere
But out of my body

Reach out and you'll touch me
Make effort to speak to me
Call out and you'll hear me
Be happy for me

[Ullean pipe solo]

Don't argue amongst yourselves
Because of the loss of me
I haven't gone anywhere
But out of my body

Reach out and you'll touch me
Make effort to speak to me
Call out and you'll hear me
Be happy for me

Reach out and you'll touch me
Make effort to speak to me
Call out and you'll hear me
Be happy for me

. . .


(feat. The Blockheads)

I come awake
With the gift for womankind
You're still alseep
But the gift don't seem to mind
Rise on this occation
Halfway up your back
Sliding down your body
Touching your behind

You look so self-possessed
I won't distrub your rest
It's lovely when you're sleeping
But wide awake is best

Ow, wake up and make love with me
Wake up and make love
Wake up and make love with me
I don't wanna make you
I'll let the fancy take you
And you'll wake up and make love

You come awake
In a horny morning mood
And we'll have a proper wriggle
In the naughty, naked nude
Roll against my body
Get me where you want me
What happens next is private
It's also very rude

I'll go and get the post
And make some tea and toast
You have a nother sleep luv
It's me that needs it most

Ow, wake up and make love with me
Wake up and make love
Wake up and make love with me
I don't wanna make you
I'll let the fancy take you
And your'll wake up and make love

Wake up and make love with me
Wake up and make love
Wake up and make love with me
Wake up and make love
Wake up
Wake up
Wake up
Wake up

. . .


(feat. The The)

Tell me what you're thinking baby
You heart's beating faster than mine
And I know something's going on
In your life
Your life
Your life

You were the girl I wanted to cry with
You were the girl I wanted to die with

And you were the boy who turned in to the man
Broke my heart & let go of my hand
Our bed is empty
The fire is out
And all the love we've got to give
Has all spurted out
There's no more blood and no more pain
In our kingdom of rain

You think you know about life
You think you know about love
But when you put your hands inside me
It doesn't even feel like I'm being touched

You were the boy I wanted to cry with
You were the boy I wanted to die with
You've moved further from my side
Year by year
While still making love
Dutifully sincere
But as silent as the car lights
That move across this room
As cold as our bodies silhouetted by the moon
And I would lie awake & wonder
Is it just me
Or is this the way that love is supposed to be?

Tell me what you told him baby
My heart's beating out of time in my mind
And I know something's going wrong
In our lives

I just wanted somebody to caress, this damsel in distress.
I just wanted somebody to undress, this damsel in distress.
I just wanted somebody to bless, this damsel in distress.
I just wanted somebody to possess, this young girl

Our bed is empty
The fire is out
And all the love we've got to give
Has all spurted out
Our bed is empty
The fire is out
And all the love we've got to give
Has all spurted out
Our bed is empty
The fire is out
And all the love we've got to give
Has all spurted out

There's no more blood and no more pain
In our kingdom of rain...

. . .


(feat. U2)

It's a beautiful day today
Everything is going my way
Even the words doing what I say
Oh babe...got to get away
To be impossible isn't that difficult
In the city you're invisible
When you come from a small town
Everything is alright
Everything is alright
I'm not your baby please

A tourist in a traffic jam
Babysham handycam
I'm not your mother you're not my man
I'm not your baby
Don't treat me like I'm a trick
I won't treat you like you're a prick
Don't need no doctor I'm not ill
I'm not your baby
Everything is alright
Everything is alright
I'm not your baby please

Cut out the poetry
Let's hit the main artery
No time for a tournequay
Let the colours all run out on me
You brought me all kinds of goods
Now my heart is so full up it hurts
It's heavy as a shopping bag
It's full of things I should give back
Everything is alright
Everything is alright
I'm not your baby please

I'm not your baby
I'm not your baby

Don't want you to cover me
Smother me or mother me
I like to feel this incomplete
I'm not your baby
Everything is alright
Everything is alright
I'm not your baby please

[Bono: (while Sinead sings: Feels so good, feels so good)]
Feel not dizzie just busy
Didn't drink nothing fizzy
No pills to feel easy
Don't know what got in to me
Daylight is a kinda robbery
The night is your geography
So you're not white, you're pink and rosy
You could be right but you're way above me
Me I'm in recovery a star of pornography
I'm a tourist there's a lot to see
You don't like the photographs of me
So you've got a lot to say
You don't sleep around but sometimes you stray
You don't belief oftentimes you pray
For something...what is it babe?

Don't treat me like I'm a trick
Won't treat you like you're a prick
Don't need no doctor I'm not sick
I'm not your baby
Everything is alright
Everything is alright
I'm not your baby please

I'm not your baby
I'm not your baby
I'm not your baby
I'm not your baby
I'm not your baby
I'm not your baby
I'm not your baby

. . .


(Conjure One)

Couldn't sleep so I went out walking
Thinking about you and hearing us talking
And all the things I should have said
Echo now, inside my head

It just ain't fair, this thing called loving
When one step there and the other feels nothing
I would have done anything for you
I still love you, baby I adore you

I feel something falling from the sky
I'm so sad I made the angels cry

Tears from the moon
Fall down like rain
I reach for you
I reach in vain

Tears from the moon
Fall down like rain
But tears from the moon
Canґt wash away the pain

Tears from the moon, tears from the moon...

It just ain't fair - this thing called loving
When one step there and the other feels nothing
I would have done anything for you
I still love you, baby I adore you

All day I keep from falling apart
But at night when the sky gets dark

Tears from the moon
Fall down like rain
I reach for you
I reach in vain

Stop, stop haunting me
It should be easy
As easy as when you stopped wanting me
Hmm

. . .


(feat. Peter Gabriel)

I caught sight of my reflection
I caught it in the window
I saw the darkness in my heart
I saw the signs of my undoing
They had been there from the start
And the darkness still has work to do
The knotted chord's untying
They're heated and they're holy
Oh they're sitting there on high
So secure with everything they're buying

In the blood of Eden
Lie the woman and the man
With the man in the woman
And the woman in the man
In the blood of Eden
Lie the woman and the man
We wanted the union
Oh the union of the woman
The woman and the man

My grip is surely slipping
I think I've lost my hold
Yes, I think I've lost my hold
I cannot get insurance anymore
They don't take credit, only gold
Is that a dagger or a crucifix I see
You hold so tightly in your hand
And all the while the distance grows between you and me
I do not understand

In the blood of Eden
Lie the woman and the man
With the man in the woman
And the woman in the man
In the blood of Eden
Lie the woman and the man
We wanted the union
Oh the union of the woman
The woman and the man

At my request, you take me in
In that tenderness, I am floating away
No certainty, nothing to rely on
Holding still for a moment
What a moment this is
Oh for a moment of forgetting, a moment of bliss
Heyyyy

I can hear the distant thunder
Of a million unheard souls
Of a million unheard souls
Watch each one reach for creature comfort
For the filling of their holes

In the blood of Eden
Lie the woman and the man
With the man in the woman
And the woman in the man
In the blood of Eden
Lie the woman and the man
We wanted the union
Of the woman and the man

In the blood of Eden
Lie the woman and the man
I feel the man in the woman
And the woman in the man

In the blood of Eden
Lie the woman and the man
I feel the man in the woman
And the woman in the man

In the blood of Eden
We've done everything we can
In the blood of Eden
Saw the end as we began
With the man in the woman
And the woman in the man
It was all for the union
Oh, the union of the woman, the woman and the man.

. . .


(feat. Moby)

The street bears no relief
When everybody's fighting
The street bears no relief
With light so hot and binding

I run the stairs away
And walk into the nighttime
The sadness flows like water
And washes down the heartache
And washes down the heartache

My heart is full
My heart is wide
The saddest song to play
On the strings of my heart

The heat is on its own
The roof seems so inviting
A vantage point is gained
To watch the children fighting

So lead me to the harbour
And float me on the waves
Sink me in the ocean
To sleep in a sailor's grave
To sleep in a sailor's grave

My heart is full
My heart is wide
The saddest song to play
On the strings of my heart

My heart is full
My heart is wide, so wide
The saddest song to play
On the strings of my heart

. . .


(w/ Aslan)

Here we go, running through the fields so slow
You always seem so incredibly real
I know you feel the same
Now we know, what we both need to know
When all of our dreams are convincingly real
The allergy stays the same
It's all up in arms
And some things will never change
But I'm okay

Now my dear, where do we go from here
When everything's looking so bright and so sure
I just know I won't feel afraid
Taking life so easy from here
I'm here
It's all up in arms
and some things will never change
But I'm okay
I'm here to stay

. . .



I am an angry man yeah, I vent it when I can, yeah
On the bag, not the skag
The negativity, yeah, pushed onto young paddy, yeah
Is a shame, whose to blame?
And when the baby cries, yeah, she has been criticised, yeah
Been put down, it's passed down

Chorus

But it's all good, it's all good
All I say to you today
It's all good, sure it's all good
All I say to you today

And positivity, yeah, it is the way for me, yeah
It is truth, it is youth
They try to keep us down, yeah
They hide the high kings crown, yeah
From the Gaels, Kathleen wails
And to survive their sting, yeah
You have to be the king, yeah
Grasp the wealth of yourself

Chorus

Love yourself today, ok, ok
Love yourself today, ok, ok

. . .


Sinéad O'Connor/The Edge

Afraid, but you will not run
Alone, thy will be done
confessed, but you still feel the shame
Bring me into your arms again
Heroine
Heroine
Heroine
Heroine
touch these eyes with a broken smile
touch my mouth with your furrowed brow
with my heart feel my shame
Lead me into rest again
Heroine
Heroine
Heroine
Heroine
The night is long,
but the day will come
with promises were the chosen one
Soak the sea
Sweet tastering
fall tonight into my arms again
Heroine
Heroine
Heroine
Heroine
The night is long
but the day will come
with promises were the chosen one
Soak the sea
Sweet tastering
fall the night into the light of day

. . .


(feat. The Colourfield)

Remember tumble weeds on an empty road
That coffee pot on a burnin' stove
The Christmas tree in a place a called home
That's what I miss the most

This drifting leaves fall to the ground
I scoop them up and I throw them down
I close my eyes and I start to count
The lonely people leaving town

And I feel like a monkey in winter
And you are a lizard in the sun
Yes I feel like a monkey in winter

Say hello to something new
Is what a friend told me to do
'cos beggars can't be choosers and I can't afford to loose
We never touched we never kissed
We never loved though we thought we did
So I walked away and I called it quits
What the eyes don't see, you know the heart won't miss

But I feel like a monkey in winter
And you are a lizard in the sun
Yes I feel like a monkey in winter
And winter's just began

Remember summer long ago
The sun beats down, the air was clean
It came and went away
Things come and go
But do you, do you remember me?

Remember tumble weeds on an empty road
Coffee pot on a burnin' stove
The Christmas tree in a place a called home
That's what I miss the most

We never touched we never kissed
We never loved though we thought we did
So I walked away and I called it quits
What the eyes don't see, you know the heart don't miss

But I feel like a monkey in winter
And you are a lizard in the sun
Yes I feel like a monkey in winter
And it looks like winter's gone

. . .


(feat. Terry Hall)

Snowdrops and daffodils,
Butterflies and bees,
Sailboats and fishermen,
Things of the sea,
Wishing wells and wedding bells,
Early morning dew,
All kinds of everything
Remind me of you.

Seagulls and aeroplanes,
Things of the sky,
Winds that go howling,
Breezes that sigh,
City sight, neon lights,
Grey skies or blue,
All kinds of everything
Remind me of you.

Summer time, winter time,
Spring and autumn too,
Monday, tuesday, everyday,
I think of you.

Dances, romances,
Things of the night,
Sunshine and holidays,
Postcards to write.

Parting trees, autumn leaves,
Snowflake or two,
All kinds of everything
Remind me of you.

Summer time, winter time,
Spring and autumn too,
Seasons will never change
The way that I love you.

Dances, romances,
Things of the night.

Sunshine and holidays,
Postcards to write,
Parting trees, autumn leaves,
A snowflake or two.

All kinds of everything
Remind me of you.

All kinds of everything
Remind me of you.
