BLUE MAX | Lyrics |
1. Long Way To Go Sitting here watching it slide away Thinking what can I do today Picking up the pieces of a dream That was meant to be So here I go you're taking away All inside of me Well I know it's a long way And it's a long way to go When you're cruising on your own You're finding it hard Just wanna be a star Stranded on a ship left out at sea Conspiring didn't know I had it in me Things are rolling over into destiny Forever being mistaken - lost dignity So here I go you're taking away All inside of me Well I know it's a long way And it's a long way to go When you're cruising on your own You're finding it hard Just wanna be a star Feel it taking over Feel it taking over You're losing control Feel it taking over and over And it's a long way to go When you're cruising on your own You're finding it hard Just wanna be a star So when you gaze into the crystal ball You see nothing's gonna change at all Nothings gonna happen If it's gonna happen It's not gonna happen overnight Said It's not gonna happen overnight I know You just gotta let it roll |
2. Head Room Is there any room Inside your head Is there any room Inside your head What you gonna see When you open your eyes What you gonna hear When the buzzing dies Turn away from the past that you know Let it go Let it go Let it go Trying to figure out What its all about Trying to figure out What its all about What you gonna do When they let you out What you gonna say When they let you shout Turn away from the past that you know Let it go Let it go Let it go |
3. Suicide Ballad From within the building Much higher than the clouds Easy girl walking restless Unsettled white gown Tired alone trying to fight it through Never had a chance always climbing stairways Such is her life must have had a right to complain Shattered limbs lay concrete paintings Twisted pieces all around Easy girl no longer walking Tattered white gown on the ground Free as a bird no longer alone Free as a bird no longer alone Never had a chance always climbing stairways Such is her life - must have had a right to complain Free as a bird no longer alone Free as a bird no longer alone |
4. Superstar Long ago and oh so far away, I fell in love with you Before the second show Your guitar it sounds so sweet to me, But you're not really here Its just the radio Don't you remember you told me you loved me baby Said you'd be coming back this way again baby Baby, baby, baby, baby Oh baby I love you - I really do Loneliness is such a sad affair And I can hardly wait to be with you again What to say to make you come again Come back to me again And play your sad guitar Don't you remember you told me you loved me baby Said you'd be coming back this way again baby Baby, baby, baby, baby Oh baby I love you - I really do |
5. Freefalling Seen so many things on planet Earth So better than this crawling up my spine It's so surreal - will I ever be missed Free falling down I'm letting go I don't know why Falling again Shut myself away Escape the noise And the city streets Get myself a gun Show the world what heaven is Free falling down I'm letting go I don't know why Falling again Read the crap that they're putting in the papers All the devastation on TV Made my mind up - I'm gonna do away with this world Free falling down I'm letting go I don't know why Falling again |
6. She's So... Catch me I'm falling What is there to do Another day hopelessly Searching for you Just the way she is always She is always Beyond my mind See me today She's in my soul Try and find a way Cos she's so... If I could take away Times gone by it's Just the way She is always Beyond my mind See me today She's in my soul Try to find a way To tell her what I'm trying to say Cos I can see All that she's trying to be Never take away Cos she's so... Away Away She is always Beyond my mind See me today She's in my soul Try to find a way To tell her what I'm trying to say Cos I can see All that she's trying to be Never take away Cos she's so... There she goes Watch her There she goes... |
7. Backseat Of A Car Climb the walls, but there's no way out now Does it really hurt to play their games The worse thing that could ever happen is You end up at the same place There's so many people searching for a life line To many people fighting on the bread line They try to pull you in - is it the end Is it the end for you Like in the backseat of a car Pay the fare he'll take you far Needs to feel he's in control Mr Jones he plays the part Buys a house gets a car That's all they ever want for you So when they tell you what to do Play along and you'll get threw It's all they ever want from you So you play the games they tell you to go along with all their rules They try to pull you in - is it the end - is it the end for you When they try to change your way of thinking Its the only thing that you can do Climb the walls to the outside Because you know they'll never catch you Like in the backseat of a car Pay the fare he'll take you far Needs to feel he's in control Mr Jones he plays the part Buys a house gets a car That's all they ever want for you So when they tell you what to do Play along and you'll get threw It's all they ever want from you |
8. Spinning The Carousel You've got what I need For a little fee Helpless sentiments Are overthrown The times have changed They've rearranged Watch me fall Beneath your feet Spinning the carousel The little girl from hell Tell me what you know ...Cos I don't mind it at all Spin around this way What you got to say Tell me what you know ...Cos I don't mind it at all Thought of a thousand things That you could bring Just a little more rope to hang me with Can't hide the pain Make it go away Watch me fall beneath your feet Spinning the carousel The little girl from hell Tell me what you know ...Cos I don't mind it at all Spin around this way What you got to say Tell me what you know ...Cos I don't mind it at all I don't mind it at all Spinning the carousel The little girl from hell Tell me what you know ...Cos I don't mind it at all Spin around this way What you got to say Tell me what you know ...Cos I don't mind it at all |
9. Sixty Five Need some time to recognize That your dreams can all be real You're walking on the tightrope of life A passing glance downwards Laser lights on a winding road Speed limit at sixty five No matter where you go Speed limit at sixty five It doesn't matter where you go Mesmerized by people's lives While his own is sinking slowly He sits at home and spends his wasted days Stares at old photos and wonders Where his dreams have slipped away Speed limit at sixty five No matter where you go Speed limit at sixty five It doesn't matter where you go These are the days When everything is going to be OK These are the days… Away that's the very place Could you picture his parent's face Wouldn't want to go out again You're so innocently vain No matter where you go Speed limit at sixty five No matter where you go Speed limit at sixty five It doesn't matter where you go |
10. Delaney Delaney and me we're gonna set you free today We got a gun to your head so pretty soon You'll be dead anyway Cos what she wants she is gonna get Otherwise you'll soon be dead She's gonna blow you She's gonna blow you away Now we're on the run She's my number one You know what I You know what I You know what I mean She stole a Cadillac just to cut some slack Down the freeway On a one way street to get away from the heat We're OK And she is dressed to kill the occasion She is gorgeous She's gonna blow you She's gonna blow you away Now we're on the run She's my number one You know what I You know what I You know what I mean They're trying to get us now We don't know where to go We're nearly out of time And fuel is running low We need to get some gas A pack of cigarettes Delaney's lost control But there are no regrets Now we're on the run She's my number one You know what I You know what I You know what I mean We need to get some gas A pack of cigarettes Delaney's lost control |
