Hold On lyrics - Richard Ashcroft

Hold on, people hold on

Hold on, people hold on

I'm in there superstitious

And life can be so vicious

Learning on your own

Can turn your heart to stone

Apocalyptic mind

My head was full of sorrow

Whispered words of logic

Things I need to learn

I feel like we are the only ones alive

I feel like we are the only ones alive

So hold on, hold on, hold on

Hold on, you know there ain't no lot of time

But I know that we can make it

You better hold on

You better hold on

Untill you get some pepper spray

The water canons on the way

Fighting on your own

Can turn your heart to stone

And truth is on the march again

Wipe those tears away

Apocalyptic mind

She soothe me with my soul

I feel like we are the only ones alive

I feel like we are the only ones alive

So hold on, hold on, hold on

Hold on, you know there ain't no lot of time

But I know that we can make it

You better hold on

So hold on, hold on, hold on

You better hold on, you know there ain't no lot of time

But I know that we can make it

You better hold on

You better hold on

You better hold on

You better hold on

I feel like we are the only ones alive

I feel like we are the only ones alive

I feel like we are the only ones alive

I feel like we are the only ones alive

Well you better hold on

You better hold on, hold on

You better hold on, you know there ain't no lot of time

But I know that we can make it

You better hold on, so hold on

You better hold on, hold on

You better hold on, you know there ain't no lot of time

But I know that we can make it

Untill you get some pepper spray

The water canons on the way

Apocalyptic mind

She soothe me with my soul

I feel like we are the only ones alive

Apocalyptic mind

I feel like we are the only ones alive

These People lyrics - Richard Ashcroft

Imagine your life without a melody

This sweet love song for you for me to sing

Imagine my life without your morning smile

Your look of love that says, ‘stay awhile’

These people, sent to test us

Sent to play with our minds

Come on baby

We’re a little stronger

I know we can survive

Oh yeah

Moving through a different part of our lives

On a raging sea they say that man survived

We move them to a different part of our heart

Come on baby now

Let us start

These people, sent to test us

Sent to play with our minds

Come on baby

We’re a little stronger

I know we can survive

I, I know we can survive

Oh Oh Oh

Could there be life without a melody?

A soixante-neuf without the erotique?

Imagine my life without your morning smile

That look of love that says, ‘stay awhile’

These people, sent to test us

Sent to play with our minds

Come on baby

We’re a little stronger

I know we can survive

(I know we can survive)

These people, sent to test us

Sent to play with our minds

Come on baby

We’re a little stronger

I know we can survive

(I know we can survive)

I know we can survive

(I know we can survive)

(I know we can survive)

I feel like a number one again

I’m like I’m born again

Hand in hand in the sun

Hand in hand in the sun

Hand in hand in the sun

Ooh yeah

Everybody Needs Somebody To Hurt lyrics - Richard Ashcroft

Everybody needs somebody to hurt it seems

Caught in the middle of life

It's just a riddle full of bad dreams

Everybody needs somebody to hurt it seems

Caught in the middle of life

It's just a riddle full of bad dreams

(Oh oh oh oh oh oh)

(Ah ah ah ah ah ah)

Waiting for someone to help me

When someone will give you a hand

You feel lonely at work

Nobody understands

You feel lonely on the train

But you don't make a sound

You keep it all inside

One day it's gonna come flooding out

Everybody needs somebody to hurt it seems

Caught in the middle of life

It's just a riddle full of bad dreams

(Oh oh oh oh oh oh)

You know each tear you cry

You tear yourself in two

(Ah ah ah ah ah ah)

We hurt with tears

And still we tear ourselves in two

Silence penetrates ya

And the walls are closing in

Looking at that phone

Waiting, just waiting for someone to ring

You know you could be a good friend

You could treat ‘em well

But no one seems to be caught in your magic spell

Everybody finds somebody to hurt, it seems

Caught in the middle of life

It’s just a riddle full of bad dreams

Everybody finds somebody to hurt, it seems

Caught in the middle of life

It’s just a riddle full of bad dreams

(Oh oh oh, oh oh oh)

(Oh yeah)

(Ah ah ah ah ah ah)

(Oh yeah)

(Ah ah ah ah ah ah)

(Ah ah ah ah ah ah)

(Ah ah ah ah ah ah)

Picture Of You lyrics - Richard Ashcroft

I've got a picture of you

The glory of you

In my mind

On a hot summer's day, babe

You know you blew them away, yeah

With your smile

With your smile

It makes me cry

Just some dumb guy

Emotions lost in my prime

Guess I'm a little numb

Yeah look what I've done

Hm hm hm hm hm, hm hm hm hm hm

Mmh mmh mmh mmh

I watch the rolling tide

Call some friends of mine

Then I get caught up

Then I'll call you up

I got a picture of you, oh-oh

The glory of you, yeah yeah

It makes me smile

It makes me cry

Oooh, it makes me cry

Mmmh, ooh ooh ooh

It makes cry

Black Lines lyrics - Richard Ashcroft

Who put those black lines under your eyes?

Let me replace them with a smile

Letters from lovers that you don't read

Toys for children you've not conceived

Yes it's real life

Sometimes it gets so hard

You wonder why you try

Makes no sense at all

So you just turn out your light

Try to figure out

What's going on in your mind

Makes no sense at all, oh

You know and I know too, ah

You gotta see it through until the morning

I can wait until the morning

So you close your eyes

You think of death

Nothing left in your head till the morning

Can you wait until the morning?

Sweet bird of fortune I had to let you go

This gilded cage yeah, couldn't hold that soul

So who put those black lines under your eyes?

Let me replace them with a smile

Yes it's real life

Sometimes it gets so hard

You wonder why you try

Makes no sense at all

So you just turn out your light

Try to figure out

What's going on in your mind

Makes no sense at all

Yes it’s real life

Sometimes it gets so hard

You wonder why you try

Makes no sense at all

So you just turn out your light

Try to figure out

What's going on in your mind

Makes no sense at all

Oh, you know and I know too

Oh gotta see it through till the morning

I pray until the morning

So you close your eyes

Think of death

Think of yourself somewhere better in the morning

Still praying for the morning

I can wait until the morning

Let's wait until the morning

Still praying for the morning

I can wait until the morning

I can wait until the morning

I can wait until the morning

Ooooooh ooh ooh ooh

Ooooooh ooh ooh ooh

Ooooooh ooh ooh ooh

Ain't The Future So Bright lyrics - Richard Ashcroft

You never thought it'd come to you

You thought those days had gone

Yeah you've been low

You've been confused

Forgotten what you've done

There's many corners still left to turn

Many plates left to spin

When will we ever learn

Life ain't just about the pain

Yeah it s been a long time

Since I felt that sunshine

Lord I can't believe it

I'm too numb to feel it

I run on a runway

Thought ‘I wanna fly away’

Keep that narrow life

There's something in your mind

(Let's talk about it)

Ain't the future so bright now you're in love

Oh yeah, let's talk about it

Ain't the future so bright now you're in love

Oh yeah

(Oh oh yeah, ooh oh yeah)

(future love, future love)

(Oh oh yeah, ooh oh yeah)

(Future love, future love)

There's so many things that you wanna learn

But you know there's no time

When all the world falls apart

Without a reason or a rhyme

Yeah it's been a long time

Since I felt that sunshine

Lord I can't believe it

I'm too numb to feel it

I run on a runway

Thought ‘I wanna fly away’

Keep that narrow life

It's you who's in my mind

Ain't the future so bright now you're in love

Oh yeah, let's talk about it

Ain't the future so bright now you're in love

Oh yeah, let's talk about it

The grief of, yeah, the candle

Purveyed and lit by the Father, yeah

Look at the trap they laid as they're acting out

Suspending the truth and all

We can live forever

Oh we can live right now

Turn up the heat, oh

And don't make a sound

I'll bear witness to your crimes

Oh, I'll be your mirror

Oh, I'll forgive ya

Ain't the future so bright now you're in love

Oh yeah, let's talk about it

Ain't the future so bright now you're in love

Oh yeah, let's talk about it

Ain't the future so bright now you're in love

(Ain't the future so bright now we're in love?)

Oh yeah let's talk about it (are we in love?)

(Are we in love, are we in love?)

Ain't the future so bright now you're in love

(Ain't the future so bright now we're in love)

Oh yeah let's talk about it

(Are we in love, are we in love?)

Ain't the future so bright?

Songs Of Experience lyrics - Richard Ashcroft

Look at your life

Who's shining on you?

You've got a lot of things going on

Open your mind

Can't you see what is new?

The world is changing

Are you moving on? Ah-ha

You're like me (you're like me)

You can flip in a second (oh oh oh)

Step into rage what d’you reckon? (oh oh oh)

Serenade or use a weapon

You're like me (you're like me)

Your scars are like your badges (oh oh oh)

Climb up into these branches (oh oh oh)

I guess that's the way your life is

Ooh-ooh, how do you know these things?

She said ‘ooh ooh, how do you know these things?’

Cause these are songs of experience baby

Songs of experience (oh oh oh)

Songs of experience baby (oh oh oh)

Don't be afraid (don't be afraid)

Fear does you no good

It will take you for all you own

And look at those stars

Do they still shine on you?

The world is changing

It’s a-moving on, Ah-ha

You're like me (you're like me)

You can flip in a second (oh oh oh)

Step into rage what d’you reckon (oh oh oh)

Serenade or choose a weapon

You're like me (you're like me)

Your scars are like your badges (oh oh oh)

Climb up into these branches (oh oh oh)

Tell me where I’m lacking

Ooh ooh, how do you know these things?

She said ‘ooh ooh, how do you know these things?’

Cause these are songs of experience baby

Songs of experience (oh oh oh)

Songs of experience baby, oh oh oh-oh

Cause these are songs of experience baby (baby)

Oh-oh (all right)

Songs of experience baby (baby)

Songs of experience (all right)

These are songs of experience baby (baby)

Songs of experience

Songs of experience baby (baby)

(Oh my my my my my)

(Yeah, yeah)

(Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh)

How The West Was Lost lyrics - Richard Ashcroft

Ah, ah ah ah ah ah ah,

ah ah, oh oh oh oh oh oh...

I was made to fail

Ah, ah ah ah ah ah ah,

ah ah, oh oh oh oh oh oh...

A subtle fail

Ah, ah ah ah ah ah ah, ah ah, oh oh oh oh oh oh

I search relentlessly, for the flower, for the power to carry on

Ah, ah ah ah ah ah ah,

ah ah, oh oh oh oh oh oh...

(Could Be) A Country Thing, City Thing, Blues Thing lyrics - Richard Ashcroft

How many days have I felt like this?

How strong am I?

It feels so good to be free

I want you to know

How I feel

You take me from the madness, the awe-inspiring sadness

Take me to the places where the air is clean

Fill my heart with wonder, awake me from my slumber

Toss me to the ocean like a sinking stone

Could be a city thing

Could be a blues thing

Could be a country thing

Could be the real thing

Took a walk over the rocks on the beach

And I was thinking of all the things I have and can never be

And I was dreaming lazily on your head as I

Watched the sunset

You take me from the madness, the awe-inspiring sadness

Show me places that I need to know

Roll me to the ocean, like a stone I will just fall in (I've been drowning)

Heaven knows where this love will go

Could be a city thing

Could be a blues thing

Could be a country thing

Could be the real thing

Could be a city thing

Could be a blues thing

Could be a country thing

Could be the me thing

Think

Could be a blues thing

Think

Could be the real thing

You take me from the madness, the awe-inspiring sadness

Take me to the places where the air is clean (and I've been drowning)

Fill my heart with wonder, wake me from my slumber (I've been sleeping)

Toss me to the ocean like a sinking stone (and I've been drowning)

Lift me out this logic

Leaves my heart grounded (I've been sleeping)

Take me to the places where the air is clean (and I've been drowning)

Meet me at the fountain, the one set in the garden (will you come bless me?)

I'll wash your hands as you just stand

Stand by me

Stand by me

My, my, my, my, my, my, my, mahma

You're real fine

Step back

Said you're really fine

Said you're really fine

Stand back

Said you're really fine

Said you're really fine

Yeah, yeah, yeah (said you're really fine)

Devotion

Kick the switch, babe

We're gone

City thing (devotion)

Could be a blues thing (said you're really fine)

Could be a country thing

A blues thing

A country thing

A city thing

Could be a blues thing

Country thing (step back)

A blues thing (you're really fine)

Ground control (devotion)

I've got a love you can hold

Devotion
