Suicide Blonde

(A Farriss & M Hutchence)

Suicide blonde
Suicide blonde
Suicide blonde
Suicide blonde

Suicide blonde
Was the colour of her hair
Like a cheap distraction
For a new affair
She knew it would finish
Before it began
Something tells me you lost the plan

CHORUS
You want to make her
Suicide blonde
Love devastation
Suicide blonde
You want to make her
Suicide blonde
Love devastation
Suicide blonde

She stripped to the beat
But her clothes stay on
White light everywhere
But you can't see a thing
Such a squeeze
A mad sad moment
Glory to you
Glory to you
Take me there
Take me there

Got some revelation
Put into your hands
Save you from your misery
Like rain across the land
Don't you see
The colour of deception
Turning your world around again

CHORUS

Disappear

(J Farriss & Michael Hutchence)

Say I'm crying
I'm looking at what's on TV
Pain and suffering
and the struggle
To be free
It can't ever be denied and I
Never will ignore
But when I see you coming
I can take it all

CHORUS
You're so fine
Lose my mind
And the world seems to disappear
All the problems
All the fears
And the world seems to disappear

Say you're mine
And give yourself to the
Feelings that you know
I'm needing
All that you can give me
all the things
That you do so well
Words are healing
Sweet anticipation
Making spells
As the shadows close in
Fall across all our yesterdays

CHORUS

Disappear
Disappear
Disappear
Disappear
Disappear
Disappear
Disappear

Say if I could
Look into myself and reason
But I could never never see or
Make snese of the dealings
turn around
Am I looking at salvation
Make me realise all that I am
You put the light inside this man

CHORUS

The Stairs

(A Farriss & M Hutchence)

In a room above a busy street
The echoes of a life
the fragments and the accidents
Separated by incidents
Listened to by the walls
We share the same spaces
Repeated in the corridors
Performing the same movements

CHORUS
Storey to storey
Building to building
Street to street
We pass each other on the stairs
Storey to storey
Building to building
Street to street
We pass each other on the stairs

Listened to by the walls
We share the same spaces
Repeated in the corridors
Performing the same movements
The nature of your tragedy
Is chained around your neck
Do you lead or are you led
Are U sure that you don't care
There are reasons here to give your life
And follow in your way
The passion lives to keep your faith
Though all are different all are great
Climbing as we fall
We dare to hold on to our fate
And steal away our destiny
To catch ourselves with quiet grace

CHORUS

Listened to by the walls
We share the same spaces
Repeated in the corridors
Performing the same movements

CHORUS

Faith in Each Other

(J Farriss & M Hutchence)

All the people
In this world
All the people
In this world

Gotta tell you
It's alright
Look at the cover
Of a magazine
The pride of a nation
They're down on their knees
I got to tell you
Let the people speak

CHORUS
I got to tell you
Yeah you got to have faith
In each other
All you ever
all you ever have for each other

They give us a reason
To go on living
It's all in the choices
That you have to make
I got to tell you
You better make them good

CHORUS

All the people
In this world
All the people
In this whole wide world
I got to tell you
Let the people speak

CHORUS

By My Side

(A Farriss & K Pengilly)

In the dark of night
Those small hours
Uncertain and anxious
I need to call you
Rooms full of strangers
some call me friend
But I wish you were close to me

In the dark of the night
Those small hours
I drift away
When I'm with you

CHORUS
In the dark of the night
By my side
In the dark of the night
By my side
By my side
By my side
I wish you were here
I wish you were here

Here comes the clown
His face is a wall
No window
no air at aall
In the dark of the night
Those faces they haunt me
But I wish you were
So close to me
By my side
By my side
I wish you were
I wish you were

CHORUS

Those faces they haunt me
I wish you were so close to me
Yes I wish you were
By my side

Lately

(A Farriss & M Hutchence)

I never knew much
Enough was enough
The reasons were not always there
But the look in your eyes
Hides that surprise
I would never have counted on this

CHORUS
Well lately
You look around
You're wondering what you're doing
Yeah lately
You look around
You're wondering what you're seeing
What you're doing

The taste of freedom
Was sweeter than love
'Cause you never had a chance to live
Your blue sky calls
To seduce and bewitch
And give you the wings of your fate

CHORUS

I never knew much
Enough was enough
The reasons were not always there
But the look in your eyes
Hides the surprise
I would never have counted on this

CHORUS

Who Pays the Price

(A Farriss & M Hutchence)

(Harmonica by Charlie Musselwhite)

Yes it's dark sometimes
When the people are shoving
Pushing you into the ground
And you cry in the daylight
With the sun in your eyes
Even though you kow you're not alone
And it's all been felt before
You stare out through your window
And wonder if there's gonna be more

CHORUS
It brings you down
It's like a war
Who pays the price
If you want more

Quiet desperation of a million lives
gonna make you change your ways
We got everything we wanted
But forgot how we got it
Just can't paint it golden anyway
And the strength of all you're giving
Is gonna make the changes
Tomorrow's gonna bring a new day

CHORUS

As the years go by
Will it show on your face
Or stay hidden behind some door
Yeah you made your solutions
With the will of a priest
But you're not so sure anymore
And the reasons why you're living
Keep changing everytime you find a key you find more

CHORUS

Know the Difference

(A Farriss & M Hutchence)

You're driving all over town
In your big car
Windows down
Sweet perfume trails behind
The impression is in my mind
It's crazy how much I ache
for the moments we could make
Your girlfriends they like to talk
Yeah they told me about your boy

CHORUS
What you do and what you say
Do you know the difference any way

Could I show you what's in store
Cause I know you'll be wanting more
You're the kind of girl who knows
what you want and where it goes
You got instinct
You got class
Why don't you leave that guy on his ass
Good intensions are not enough
We should join hands and rise above

CHORUS

It's crazy how much I ache
For the moments we could make
Your girlfriends they like to talk
Yeah they told me about your boy

You're driving all over town
In your big car
Windows down
Sweet perfume trails behind
The impression is on my mind

CHORUS

Bitter Tears

(A Farriss & M Hutchence)

In the mist
Of my endless search
The best in life
Becomes clear
The rest just begins
To fade by itself
That's a trick I learnt
Though it took so long
Bitter tears taste so sweet

CHORUS
I'm seeing my way
For the first time in years
When the love around
Begins to suffer
And you can't find love
In one
In one another
Push away those bitter tears
Bitter tears

And I thought I was doing no wrong
And I thought I was doing no wrong
In the hour of your needs
Lips are trembling
Cause you're gonna be free
Realise what we're doing here
The time is right to kill your fears
Bitter tears taste so sweet

CHORUS

And I thought I was doing no wrong
Push away those bitter tears
Push away those bitter tears
Push away those bitter tears
Push away those bitter tears

That's what they call doing no wrong
That's what they call doing no wrong
Push away those bitter tears
Push away those bitter tears
Push away those bitter tears
That's what they call doing no wrong

On My Way

(A Farriss & M Hutchence)

(Harmonica by Charlie Musselwhite)

Shake make it forever
Curling from your lips
Faith and it's not over
Bring on that famous word
Love don't abuse it
And you'll never be sad again

CHORUS
I'm on my way
I'm on my way

Blood's getting hotter
thinking about your hips
I feel all the hunger
The minute you turn away
I think it's getting better
But I can't wait another day

CHORUS

Make all your wishes
No sooner said than done
Here I come like I told you
Whether it's air, land or sea
She said this is the real thing
Cause you're never gonna find the door

CHORUS

Love don't abuse it
And you'll never be sad again

CHORUS

Love don't abuse it
And you'll never be sad again

CHORUS

Hear That Sound

(A Farriss & M Hutchence)

So your time has come
Children watch the fools
Don't let anyone tell you
What you must do
Do you like what you see
Or does it make you cry
Use your imagination
And start a fire

CHORUS
Hear that sound
There's a voice to be found
Making changes go round
Hear that sound

And my selfish ways
Disappeared one day
With the realization
Of a new way
Images of the free
Coming into view
Our hearts full of promises
Of all we can do

CHORUS

So your time has come
Children watch the fools
Don't let anyone tell you
What you must do
do you like what you see
Or does it make you cry
Use your imagination
And start a fire

CHORUS
