Superstar Nomads Lyrics
The Invisible Helping Hand
Rain lashes down on your windowless pain
And it’s all you can do just to try stay insane
I don’t mean step in time; just leave the steps free
Or you’ll live out your life at thirty-three
Why don’t you cry yourself to sleep
When waking sleep is all you know
Why can’t you cry yourself to sleep
Spinning crazed ideas and the world spins on
Little by little you’re drifting away
As day becomes night and day becomes day
And the replay ends tied up again
So when will the fog clear my friend
Blinded
Soul searching doesn’t help at all
When you’ve been caught
Makes no difference who you decide to call
You’ll see I’m something that I’m not
Wouldn’t you like it if I was still here
To pour your coffee and chill your beer
Wouldn’t you like it if I was around
You’d just get lazy and mess me around
Cause you’ve been blinded
What you see ain’t always what you get
Or so there saying goes
I’ll make your wish that we had never met
Then tomorrow never knows
Wouldn’t you like it if I was on call
You’d sit in your ass and do nothing at all
Wouldn’t you like it if I was your puppet
Too shy and timid to tell you to stuff it
BAKE
I sit here and I bask in your pain
You think I’m a friend but it’s more my game
Growing more attached through your trials
I’ll drag you yet, though we’re different tribes
There’s belief in things I don’t get
I just don’t buy it, those dreams they have
But they’re more than dreams to them, not foolish yet
Waiting to be captured by that mystery
It’s not as easy as it looks
To keep this face for so long
It’s hard to keep the cracks from opening
So I run faster and I run so much closer
It’s so simple if you know the way
You just can’t see into my enclosure
No matter how hard you try
Was I Really
When I was lyin', you saw right through me
When I was cryin', you wiped away my tears
When I was flyin', you brought me back to earth
When I was dyin', you took away my fears
I feel that we have come to this
I feel the time is getting near
I know that we should do this
And I think we're getting high now baby
Little by little, you found me waiting
For all the things that only you could show me
Now we're alone here while the world flies past us
I had you all the time and I didn't even know
Other People’s Thoughts
My mind is full of things that don’t belong there
They are other people’s thoughts
You don’t know when, when it’s going to hit you
You don’t expect it, it just happens
You heard me yesterday, in that doorway
I meant what I said, you just don’t know it
I don’t know what I’m going to do without you
I don’t know what I’m going to do
I don’t know what I’m going to do without you
It’s all around me, closing in
You won’t know, until it’s too late
Watch out, they’re coming to get you
You always knew, you were expecting it
They are more important to you now baby
Than anything else in the world
They are more important to you now baby
Than anything else in the world
My head is full, of things that don’t belong there
They are other people’s thoughts
The Moulting
If that’s the best that I can do
And this is all I’ll ever be
There’ll be bricks in store for you
But what’s in store for me
I’ve looked into the sky at night
And swam in seas far out from shore
I swear I nearly died of fright
Cause I got no reflection anymore
You never see what I’m going through
Letting me go is too easy to do
But it’s alright, you’re alright
If leaving your body does it for you
Then it’s alright, cause you’re alright
You never see what I’m going through
And all you are you have inside
Anything else will be denied
Through ricocheting silently
You stay in synchronicity
You never see what I’m going through
Chastity Loves Prudence
Tell me why don’t you feel aroused beneath my feet
All of us long to be free dear, be free down beneath
Tell me why can’t you give in to your mind, to your cool cool ideas
Freedom is buried too deep to be smothered by your fears
Alone
Graceful and slowly you ask yourself, how this lie became real
Too many people surrender themselves because of how they feel
When did this battle between body and soul become so confused
All of us have the power to be willingly, happily used
Alone
Egg
Live inside a beautiful egg
Blackmail your colleagues and friends
Bottle your spit, refrigerate it
Blackmail your colleagues and friends
This egg is fine
This egg’s all mine
Live in an egg
Bottle your spit
Blackmail your colleagues and friends
Live within and be akin
To albumen, yolk and shell
Cocoon yourself, improve your health
Enjoy and savour the smell
Live inside a sun-burnt egg
Mangle your colleagues and friends
Ferment your fluids, overdo it
Mangle your colleagues and friends
