gwyneth baillie - Same Same but Different - lyricsshades of greyWinter walks through shades of grey, he's wondering what to do today Wandering under bridges overgrown He kills some time in Kensington, hanging out, having fun Beyond the Last Temptation, getting stoned Winter was a hunter all his living, all his life He carries with him everything he owns Closer to the edge of time, he's closer to the edge of mind Cause Winter calls the city streets his hom And Winter has to do what he has to do just to make it through... Word. Shelly D is back in town, anthony is coming round Down booze-can alley, and Welfare pays the tab Then Eddy and his friends arrive in richer dyes of pain and pride The streets go deep and they've got it something bad So Winter does a line or two (it stops the noise from coming through), and starts to feeling everything's alright But soon Eddy's getting out of hand, so Winter tries to stop the dance When the junkie in the corner pulls the knife And Winter has to do what he has to do just to make it through... So run cold, lonely Winter. So young - cold, lonely Winter Running from authority, and running from the wars Running from the fear they face alone Fuck the lost society, you can't cover up the scars The walking wounded line the danger zone little boy lostLittle boy lost come out of your shell I'm sure you've got lots of stories to tell About how you have got the Buddha's eyes Embroidered on your back About life in Katmandu and how you never really ever came back... Little boy blue you're smiling at me How I would like to see what you see Through those blue eyes so wise, so riddled with despair If they never realize they'll never really ever see clear You keep on walking toward the sun And pretty soon the day is done You turn around and head on home And wonder why you're still alone Little boy what's the matter with you? You can tell me, I'll help you get through I could not promise that I would not let you down But if you never try, you'll never really ever know how You keep on walking toward the sun And pretty soon the day is done You turn around and head on home And wonder why you're still alone |

the road to paradiseSomewhere a long, lonely road leads to nowhere And nowhere leads no one back home Sometimes the wrong time to run, Time to stand against one Time to stand on your own The road's not paved to paradise, my friend And nothing is as it seems We're on our way to paradise again If only in my dreams Hey monkey see, monkey do, monkey me monkey You are on alien ground Open the door and your heart hopin' more Open wide as your eyes look around Now that you know you can't hide You can't run from inside you are never alone Half way around, cross the world, half way down Half way into the unknown tomorrow never comesYou are the drug and the dealer The wound and the healer Pain and the pleasure Measure for measure The joy and the sorrow Promise of tomorrow And tomorrow never comes You are the past and the future The slash and the suture Words in the silence Passive violence The joy and the sorrow Promise of tomorrow And tomorrow never comes Lies and addictions, alibis, afflictions I'm in a whirlwind and I'm twisted inspired Idealizin' without realizin' I'm standing too close to the fire Tomorrow's burning with desire Desire You are the soul and the sadness - organized madness The truth and the liar The town crier The joy and the sorrow Promise of tomorrow And tomorrow never comes Lies and addictions, alibis, afflictions I'm in a whirlwind and I'm twisted inspired Idealizin' without realizin' I'm standing too close to the fire Tomorrow's burning with desire Desire | |

letting goThe more I know, the more I know I don't know The further you go, the closer I am to limbo I'm acting strong as I watch you moving on Part of me is missing, some part of me is gone The more I learn, the only thing I know The hardest part is letting go The more I see, the more I see I don't see For you and me, it was never easy And now it's true, you're seeing someone new Part of me is missing, cause part of me is you The more I learn, the only thing I know The hardest part is letting go The tables turned, there's another lesson unlearned And the more I try, the more I wonder why I'm acting strong as I watch you moving on Part of me is missing, some part of me is gone The more I learn, the only thing I know The hardest part is letting go The more I learn, the more I know The hardest part is letting go Let it go... | |

the phoenixLove, I feel you hanging 'round my heart But should we try this again? I remember... Time and time that the sun refused to shine down on us Back when I knew you then But I've been running around in circles, and I need you as a friend So Love, could we try again? Like the Phoenix, with her wings that fan the fire Could we fly again? Like the bird up from the ashes of the pyre Could we arise and ascend? Cause I've been running around in circles, and I need you as a friend So Love, could we try again? Could we fly again? Like the bird up from the ashes of the pyre Could we arise and ascend? Could we fly again? Love, could we try again? just let me knowAll that I'm wondering is why am I here again Back in the space, at the place in between Show me a sign and I'll get back in line And I'll kindly remind myself where I have been Just let me know Where did this come from and how did we get here And when did I end up in love's lost embrace Drop me a tear and I'll cry you a river And I try, say goodbye to the smile on her face Just let me know What do you want from me, I'll give it easily Just let me know, just let me know Oh God, if you're hearing me, help me to see clearly Just let me know, just show me so I can understand Just let me know Longing and yearning for something that I cannot have Waiting and watching for someone who's not coming back What do you want from me, I'll give it easily Just let me know, just let me know Oh God, if you're hearing me, help me to see clearly Just let me know, just show me so I can understand Just let me know | |

I've travelled for milesYes, yesterday's gone and left me right back, back where I started from And no, nobody knows how deep it goes, and how many winding roads I've traveled for miles and miles, only to find I can't let go I've traveled around the world, only to find I can't get you off my mind Now, now it's too late we were out of the grey, why did we hesitate? And I, I can't seem to move on, I think something's gone wrong Why did we complicate it I've traveled for miles and miles, only to find I can't let go I've traveled around the world, only to find I can't get you off my mind I've traveled for miles and miles and miles and miles and miles Only to find I can't let go I've wandered around the world, only to find I can't get you off my mind Yes, yesterday's gone and left me right back Back where I started from past lifeIn a past life I could always get a date, I used to stay up early and get up late In a past life I used up all my wishes, ate my loaves and fishes, now they're gone I remember I was Cleopatra, I got what I wanted and I knew what I was after In a past life, nothing could go wrong... And now what do I got? An achin' head and an empty bed where you're not You were watching from the room upstairs I could hear the karma calling - we had met somewhere In a past life I could never settle down Then you started hanging 'round and I was gone There was thunder, Mississippi flooding I wonder what's shakin' in La La Land There was lightening, electrical connection Blew a fuse, blew my mind, really wrecked my plans And now what do I got? An achin' head and an empty bed where you're not Everybody's got to go sometime Every little thing will surely come to an end Everything you know is only a moment in your mind Everything that goes is gonna come back again In a past life I've been through this before I knocked on every door until I broke 'em down And sure as you're born, baby it goes around And around and around and around And now what do I got? An achin' head and an empty bed where you're Now what do I got? An achin' head and an empty bed where you're Now what do I got? An achin' head and an empty bed where you're... not hushHush now little one, go to sleep. Hush now baby-girl, don't you weep. Your mama's here by your side. Lay your tired body down, close your eyes When life is hard, you got to go on If it doesn't kill ya, they say it makes you strong, makes you brave, be not afraid, after the dark of the night comes the light of the day Hush now little one, go to sleep. Hush now baby-girl, don't you weep. Your mama's here by your side. Lay your tired body down, close your eyes. And when it storms, don't run and hide, I'll keep you warm, safe and dry And given time your heart can mend, given love, Maybe you can trust again |
