Bush - Solutions lyrics
the devil you know
is back here again
the devil is stoned
he's making friends
We move
we break
we're sun,we're shade
you come
we go
we're fast
we're slow
blood on your dress
hole in your sky
blanket is gone
permanent night
we're glued
we break
we all dilate
we please
we pain...again
oh we need solutions
a brain megaphone
we need solutions
a brain megaphone
she's broken your shoes
you look like winter
you're all in a bruise
handful of splinters
we brood
we flake
we torch
we take
rebound
rebirth
cocooned from hurt
I could be wrong
I could be right
do you think we'll make it
out of here alive
[chorus]
oh we need solutions
a brain megaphone
we need solutions
we got to call this home
she makes me see God
I'm out on a line
anyway the pleasure comes
[chorus]
HEADFUL OF GHOSTS:
i stand around at american weddings
i stand around for family
at my best when i'm terrorist inside
at my best when it's all me
i was there when they took all the people
i was alone in a mental revine
you breathe life when you break the walls down
you breathe life when you set me free
where is my head
where are my bones
why are my days so far from home?
where is my head
where are my bones
can you save me from myself?
free thinking renegade social
Mr. Moon now
out the slipstream of my possibilities
i got the boat so we don't drown
these are the days that are split down the middle
no words to calm me down
be sure that what you dream of
won't come to hunt you out
[chorus]
where is my head
where are my bones
why are my days so far from home?
ghost man
where is my head
where are my bones
how come we get so lost?
ghost man
where is my head
where are my bones
can you save me from myself
can you save me from myself
i stand around at american weddings
i stand around for family
at my best when i'm terrorist inside
at my best when it's all me
ghost man
how come we get so lost
ghost man
[chorus]
SUPERMAN:
crucified for atonal sins
re-invent myself shape my alter skin
try to break the mold
severed whole
first you find your threshold bevels
breathing out your toxic levels
long slow rope is hangin now we know what's
coming
oh superman where have you gone?
with a little more time and a six leaf clover just a little more head to make
you bolder just a little more sound, a little more sound
baby's playing tricks you know
she got sucked real dry
we destroy ourselves to rise again
open up yourself like a jesus sun
only way out is through way past you
first you get to human levels
run right through your bullshit pedals
long slow rope is hanging now we know what's coming
oh superman where have you gone?
with a little more time and a six leaf clover
just a little more head to make you bolder.
just a little more sound x3
baby's playing tricks you know
she got sucked so dry
and only you know how to lose
long slow rope is hanging x3 oh superman what have you done?
with a little more time and a six leaf clover just a little more head to make
you bolder just a little more sound, a little more sound, just a little more
sound x4
FUGITIVE:
we got the soul
we got the honey
stayed alive
we keep on running
house is on fire
we're petrol-stained
we stay on the move
ahead of the flames
we are the new
accelerators
faster we go
before they make us
maybe we did
maybe maybe we don't
we see your face
as you throw the stone
i am a fugitive on the run
i carry the weight of what i've done
those born a sweat
through eyes of love
bring more light
than five thousand hurts
it's not where you're from
or where you go
or what you believe
it's more than you know
open your head
open your head
hold me close as you jump off the edge
[chorus]
i am a fugitive on the run
i carry the weight of what i've done
so don't carry the weight
don't carry the weight
i don't carry the weight
you can't change the world,
but you can change what's to come
[chorus]
HURRICANE:
skies ripped open by the sun
daylight comes but not soon enough
I speed down your track in search of you
Strapped to the back of what we do
Anaesthtise these troubled nerves over to you to make it work
Agents of change set headfires
I'd rather starve than fake alive
[chorus]
Heartbreak, heartbreaking
Novocaine won't help the pain
I'm out of control
I'm in a hurricane
Head and heart have broken down
I'm out of control, I'm in a hurricane
win some ground but lose you
it's never explained how to make it through
no rope, no cash no serpentine
our love, burried on a bonfire
[chorus]
good to see you follow
good to see you come again
[chorus]
(all these miles of water)
INFLATABLE:
let it slide
overhead
when i believe in you
my soul can rest
but as love
that's really love
it never fails
but fail it does
when we shine
like the sun
you seem the only one
my only friend
[chorus]
so pretty in white
pretty when you're faithful
so pretty in white
pretty when you're faithful
when you're faithful
i resigned
from myself
took a break
was someone else
it's like i've come undone
and i've only just become
inflatable for you
[chorus]
i don't mind
most of the time
but you push me so
far inside
[chorus]
REASONS:
watch the water feed the soil
so the circle is complete
see what you have become
is the earth beneath my feet
are there any stains
on your alabaster feet
what's the space between
what you want and what you need
so you'll never be lonely again
never be lonely again
waiting for this love
to bring me close to you
waiting for this love
bring me close to you
who are you
and where are you in my life
i was wondering how much of me
is still alive
i don't even know
if i can swim again
you know how cold it gets
with all your struggling
try to find ourselves
see what is real
it gets so hard at times
you know just what to feel
[chorus]
waiting for this love
to bring me close to you
waiting for this love
bring me close to you
i got reasons
i got reasons
watch the water bleed the soil
albinoed by the sun
we will try to keep our feet
in the face of what we've done
try to find ourselves
see this, what we made?
tell me what you want
and what you have betrayed
home is still the place
that we love the most
home is where you are
home is where you are
[chorus]
LAND OF THE LIVING:
i found myself
in another world
i found myself
alive and well
i am the vapor
i am the gas
you be the angel
of everything
this is the land of the living
this is the land of reprisal
this is the land of the living
the living
the living
i lost myself
to a wider plain
i opened up
i'm not the same
i am electric
made of wire
you be the match
i'll be the fire
this is the land of the living
this is the land of reprisal
this is the land of the living
the living
the living
the living
in myself i try for you
walk a thousand miles to get us through
airwaves
jetplanes
safe landings
no branding
land
land
this is the land of the living
the land of reprisal
this is the land of the living
the land of survival
survival
land
land
this is the land of the living
the living
the living
the living
OUT OF THIS WORLD:
when we die
we go into the arms of those who remember us
we are home now
out of our heads
out of our minds
out of this world
out of this time
are you drowning or waving?
i just want you to save me
should we try to get along?
just try to get along
so we move
we change by the speed of the choices that we make
and the barriers are self-made
that's so retrograde
are you drowning or waving?
i just need you to save me
should we try to get along?
just try to get along
i am alive
i'm gonna wait 'til the trials of confusion create
there are times when i feel the way we're about to break
when there's too much to say
we are home now
out of our heads
out of our minds
out of this world
out of this time
out of this time
FLOAT:
it's a beautiful world
but everyone's insane
either you swim or
either you fade
it's a revolution time
we're sleepin' at the wheel
apocalypse child
in a nuclear field
we wanna change the world
but not what holds us back
i wanna be for you
what i've never have
and all of this time
i'm just tryin' to reach you
through the rain traffic
as we float into space
your white eyes
hide your face
as we float in between
i am with you
if you leave
fragile to the waves
vicissitudes of days
when i am with you
i feel a little brave
the madness and the wars
the circles that we run
confusion we import
what we have become
and all of this time
i was just trying to reach you
through the rain traffic
as we float into space
your white eyes
hide your face
as we float in between
i'd die with you
if you leave
as we float
as we float into space
your white eyes
hide your face
as we float in between
i'd die with you
if you leave
as we float
i'd die with you
i'd die with you
i'd die with you
