Taken By The Sea lyrics - Darren Hayes
love, lay me down
slay me with whispers
reassure me that it’s alright
I, I hit the deck, I hit rock bottom
but you saw me, then you caught me
shining like a ray of hope
swift like a turning sea
angel to comfort me
cradling my head in your hands
I looked up at the sun
and the fog cleared, I saw you
and I want you and that’s so terrifying
and I want you to help put out the fire
cause I am an island, you are the ocean
and all of my sadness taken by the sea
fall, I took a fall
I took it easy
on the surface I was perfect
but down, way down below
I started believing
I deserved it
was I worthless
sinking like a rescue boat
washing right over me
vessel is struggling
waving both my hands in the air
then the blindness of love
then your arms all around me
and I want you and that’s so terrifying
and I want you to help put out the fire
cause I am an island, you are the ocean
and all of my sadness taken by the sea
and I want so much to believe
that I won’t disappear in the water
that I won’t always be swimming against the tide
and I want you and that’s so terrifying
and I want you to help put out the fire
cause I am an island and you are the ocean
and all of my sadness taken by the sea, the sea
I am an island, you are the ocean
all of my sadness taken by the sea
slay me with whispers
reassure me that it’s alright
I, I hit the deck, I hit rock bottom
but you saw me, then you caught me
shining like a ray of hope
swift like a turning sea
angel to comfort me
cradling my head in your hands
I looked up at the sun
and the fog cleared, I saw you
and I want you and that’s so terrifying
and I want you to help put out the fire
cause I am an island, you are the ocean
and all of my sadness taken by the sea
fall, I took a fall
I took it easy
on the surface I was perfect
but down, way down below
I started believing
I deserved it
was I worthless
sinking like a rescue boat
washing right over me
vessel is struggling
waving both my hands in the air
then the blindness of love
then your arms all around me
and I want you and that’s so terrifying
and I want you to help put out the fire
cause I am an island, you are the ocean
and all of my sadness taken by the sea
and I want so much to believe
that I won’t disappear in the water
that I won’t always be swimming against the tide
and I want you and that’s so terrifying
and I want you to help put out the fire
cause I am an island and you are the ocean
and all of my sadness taken by the sea, the sea
I am an island, you are the ocean
all of my sadness taken by the sea
Don't Give Up lyrics - Darren Hayes
It's six o clock and I'm wide awake and dreaming
I'm thinking back to a time before our separate lives
A time where I could make you mine oooh
I made a promise I was never gonna hurt you
I wrote a letter and divided all the words in two
half for me and half for you oooh
Now I'm sending out a searchlight along latitudes and satellites
Don't give up don't give up don't give up on our love story when you can't go on
Don't give up don't give up always dark before the morning when you can't go on
you be a brave heart I'll be a lion's roar
and love surrenders to win the war
In the silence I hear every word you're thinking
Like the shimmer of a far away and distant star
Guess love could never travel that far no
And I can't believe it's come to this
all our secret codes and battleships
Don't give up don't give up don't give up on our love story when you can't go on
Don't give up don't give up always dark before the morning when you can't go on
you be a brave heart I'll be a lion's roar
and love surrenders to win the war
And I wanna run away from this but I never leave a sinking ship no
without you in it there's no point to our story oooh
And I can't believe it's come to this
all our secret codes and battleships no
without you in it there's no point to our story oooh
Don't ever let me go no no no
Don't ever let me go
Don't ever let me go
Don't ever let me go
I'm thinking back to a time before our separate lives
A time where I could make you mine oooh
I made a promise I was never gonna hurt you
I wrote a letter and divided all the words in two
half for me and half for you oooh
Now I'm sending out a searchlight along latitudes and satellites
Don't give up don't give up don't give up on our love story when you can't go on
Don't give up don't give up always dark before the morning when you can't go on
you be a brave heart I'll be a lion's roar
and love surrenders to win the war
In the silence I hear every word you're thinking
Like the shimmer of a far away and distant star
Guess love could never travel that far no
And I can't believe it's come to this
all our secret codes and battleships
Don't give up don't give up don't give up on our love story when you can't go on
Don't give up don't give up always dark before the morning when you can't go on
you be a brave heart I'll be a lion's roar
and love surrenders to win the war
And I wanna run away from this but I never leave a sinking ship no
without you in it there's no point to our story oooh
And I can't believe it's come to this
all our secret codes and battleships no
without you in it there's no point to our story oooh
Don't ever let me go no no no
Don't ever let me go
Don't ever let me go
Don't ever let me go
Nearly Love lyrics - Darren Hayes
In my eyes
Well your gaze always ends up there
There’s a touch of the insincere
But you can always tell I’m lying
Fighting words
Well nobody is keeping score
But we’re winning a cold, cold war
And I feel so cowardly
And now I love you, love you
Only slightly less than I loved you, loved you
And it’s hard to confess but my nearly love is not real enough
To be the one
To be the one
In your touch
Well your body can move in close
But my heart is a lonesome ghost
I’d never feel you anyway
And now I love you, love you
Only slightly less than I loved you, loved you
And it’s hard to confess but my nearly love is not real enough
To be the one
To be the one
And now I love you, love you
Only slightly less than I loved you, loved you
And my heart’s in a mess cause my nearly love is not real enough
To be the one
To be the one
Love you, love you
Only slightly less than I loved you, love you, love you
And it’s hard to confess but my nearly love is not real enough
To be the one
To be the one
And now I love you, love you
Only slightly less than I loved you, loved you
And my heart’s in a mess cause my nearly love is not real enough
To be the one
To be the one
Well your gaze always ends up there
There’s a touch of the insincere
But you can always tell I’m lying
Fighting words
Well nobody is keeping score
But we’re winning a cold, cold war
And I feel so cowardly
And now I love you, love you
Only slightly less than I loved you, loved you
And it’s hard to confess but my nearly love is not real enough
To be the one
To be the one
In your touch
Well your body can move in close
But my heart is a lonesome ghost
I’d never feel you anyway
And now I love you, love you
Only slightly less than I loved you, loved you
And it’s hard to confess but my nearly love is not real enough
To be the one
To be the one
And now I love you, love you
Only slightly less than I loved you, loved you
And my heart’s in a mess cause my nearly love is not real enough
To be the one
To be the one
Love you, love you
Only slightly less than I loved you, love you, love you
And it’s hard to confess but my nearly love is not real enough
To be the one
To be the one
And now I love you, love you
Only slightly less than I loved you, loved you
And my heart’s in a mess cause my nearly love is not real enough
To be the one
To be the one
Black Out The Sun lyrics - Darren Hayes
No turn off the sun
Take down the moon
For I don't need them anymore
Go switch off the stars
And paint the sky black
Love isn't ever coming back
There is no use in imagining a world without you
Your love was like a drug I was addicted to
[Chorus:]
Cause there is nobody else who could hurt like you hurt me
I don't want to be lonely
And there is no other way
There's no joy
There's no meaning
Just this hollowed out feeling
Now all the loves gone
And nothing grows here
And I just feel wrong so black out the sun
And all that we shared will slowly disappear
There's a hole where my soul used to grow
So just black out the sun
No stop all the rain and poison the ground
Love doesn't want to hang around
Go turn all the fruits into bitter wine
It was only sweet when you were mine
There is an emptiness inside of me
Since you been gone
All the world has lost it's meaning
All my colors run
[Chorus]
And nothing compares
How could it even dare
Cause now that love's gone I want to black out the sun
[Chorus]
Take down the moon
For I don't need them anymore
Go switch off the stars
And paint the sky black
Love isn't ever coming back
There is no use in imagining a world without you
Your love was like a drug I was addicted to
[Chorus:]
Cause there is nobody else who could hurt like you hurt me
I don't want to be lonely
And there is no other way
There's no joy
There's no meaning
Just this hollowed out feeling
Now all the loves gone
And nothing grows here
And I just feel wrong so black out the sun
And all that we shared will slowly disappear
There's a hole where my soul used to grow
So just black out the sun
No stop all the rain and poison the ground
Love doesn't want to hang around
Go turn all the fruits into bitter wine
It was only sweet when you were mine
There is an emptiness inside of me
Since you been gone
All the world has lost it's meaning
All my colors run
[Chorus]
And nothing compares
How could it even dare
Cause now that love's gone I want to black out the sun
[Chorus]
Talk Talk Talk lyrics - Darren Hayes
I know you keep your silence.
I know that secret better than you.
Sometimes all the matters of the heart
Are the chaos and the cowardice that keep us apart.
I know you want to shut down.
I know you think we're better alone.
Sometimes all the words are unsaid,
But you listen to them argue every night in your head.
Just breathe in and out.
'Cause all I want to do is just talk talk talk to you.
Please hear me out.
'Cause all I want to do is just talk talk talk to you.
I know that you've been pushed down.
I know you think we're better as two.
Sometimes, well, the miracle of love is meaningless
And clumsy like the beating of a heart.
Just breathe in and out.
'Cause all I want to do is just talk talk talk to you.
Please hear me out.
'Cause all I want to do is just talk talk talk.
Calling out-
Got to hear an echo got to get to you.
When I'm walking out-
All I want to do is just talk talk talk to you.
Well you can hide away your feelings.
And burn your bridges in the dark.
But I know you want to break through.
But we're worlds apart.
Just breathe in and out.
'Cause all I want to do is just talk talk talk to you.
Please hear me out.
'Cause all I want to do is just talk talk talk.
And I'm calling out-
I've got to hear an echo; got to get to you.
When I'm walking out-
Well all I want to do is just talk talk talk to you, yeah.
I know that secret better than you.
Sometimes all the matters of the heart
Are the chaos and the cowardice that keep us apart.
I know you want to shut down.
I know you think we're better alone.
Sometimes all the words are unsaid,
But you listen to them argue every night in your head.
Just breathe in and out.
'Cause all I want to do is just talk talk talk to you.
Please hear me out.
'Cause all I want to do is just talk talk talk to you.
I know that you've been pushed down.
I know you think we're better as two.
Sometimes, well, the miracle of love is meaningless
And clumsy like the beating of a heart.
Just breathe in and out.
'Cause all I want to do is just talk talk talk to you.
Please hear me out.
'Cause all I want to do is just talk talk talk.
Calling out-
Got to hear an echo got to get to you.
When I'm walking out-
All I want to do is just talk talk talk to you.
Well you can hide away your feelings.
And burn your bridges in the dark.
But I know you want to break through.
But we're worlds apart.
Just breathe in and out.
'Cause all I want to do is just talk talk talk to you.
Please hear me out.
'Cause all I want to do is just talk talk talk.
And I'm calling out-
I've got to hear an echo; got to get to you.
When I'm walking out-
Well all I want to do is just talk talk talk to you, yeah.
Bloodstained Heart lyrics - Darren Hayes
Love, you're in pieces
There's no one left to lay you down
Or say it's okay
On the worst night, of the worst year
Though we might fall, we'll go out punching
You hit me like a subway train
And I will never be the same
And darling I'll follow you down to the ground
Even when you fall apart, I'll pick up your bloodstained heart
And darling I'll follow you down to the ground
In the gutter
Where you're starless, and blind to dreams
We can dream each other
To a new day
Where the good guys always win
And heaven still means something
You hit me like a subway train
And I will never be the same
And darling I'll follow you down to the ground
Even when you fall apart, I'll pick up your bloodstained heart
And darling I'll follow you down to the ground
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Love, when you're in pieces
There's no one left to dry your eyes
You hit me like a subway train
And I will never be the same
Oh darling I'll follow you down to the ground
Even when you fall apart, I'll pick up your bloodstained heart
Ooh darling I'll follow you down to the ground, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh [to end]

God Walking Into The Room lyrics - Darren Hayes
You and I
We got splintered
Cut in two like earth and the sky
I say a prayer in the distance
That my faith in love will survive
My friends tell me I should look around for somebody new
But they don’t know you
They don’t understand the gravity I’ve fallen into
‘Cause I still feel you
‘Cause you bring me love
You lift me up
And every time we kiss is like God walking into the room
Forgive me, love
Can’t give you up
Every time we kiss is like God walking into the room
Can I make
A confession?
I’m lighting candles for you and I
I pray for a love resurrection
And all the things we lost in the fire
Oh, my friends tell me I should look around for somebody new
But they don’t know you
They don’t look into your eyes or tremble like I do
Every time I see you
‘Cause you bring me love
You lift me up
Every time we kiss is like God walking into the room
Forgive me, love
Can’t give you up
Hand upon the Bible
Your love is survival I tell you
I’ve never felt this before
My soul never falls to the floor
You look right to me
Like God walking into the room
Like it’s meant to be
You and I
We were splintered
Cut in two like earth and the sea
I say a prayer that in the distance
My faith in love will bring you back to me
You bring me love
You lift me up
And every time we kiss is like God walking into the room
Forgive me, love
Can’t you give up
My hand’s upon the Bible
Your love is survival, I tell you
I’ve never felt this before
My soul never falls to the floor
You look right to me
Like God walking into the room
Like it’s meant to be
We got splintered
Cut in two like earth and the sky
I say a prayer in the distance
That my faith in love will survive
My friends tell me I should look around for somebody new
But they don’t know you
They don’t understand the gravity I’ve fallen into
‘Cause I still feel you
‘Cause you bring me love
You lift me up
And every time we kiss is like God walking into the room
Forgive me, love
Can’t give you up
Every time we kiss is like God walking into the room
Can I make
A confession?
I’m lighting candles for you and I
I pray for a love resurrection
And all the things we lost in the fire
Oh, my friends tell me I should look around for somebody new

Every time I see you
‘Cause you bring me love
You lift me up
Every time we kiss is like God walking into the room
Forgive me, love
Can’t give you up

Your love is survival I tell you
I’ve never felt this before
My soul never falls to the floor
You look right to me
Like God walking into the room
Like it’s meant to be

Hurt lyrics - Darren Hayes
If you want something broke you better give it to me
Got a way of disappointing that you wouldn’t believe
I can take a good intention and turn it on its head
I can make you pray to God and wish we’d never met
Nobody knows where this razor has been
If you want something broke you better give it to me
Because I can make you hurt
I can take you down so low I’ll make you want to cry
I can make you say goodbye
I can make you hurt
I can take you down so low and then you’ll know that maybe
You’d be better off when I’m not around
You’d be better off with somebody else
So put me back on the shelf
See I’m the kind of person who can barely be loved
I solve every equation with a push and a shove
Now that I love you I’m afraid it’s too late
If you get too close I’ll only push you away
I can make you hurt
I can take you down so low I’ll make you want to cry
I can make you say goodbye
I can make you hurt
I can take you down so low and then you’ll know that maybe
You’d be better off when I’m not around
I was better lost before I was found
I’ve got a history of misery so baby listen to me
Put me back on the shelf and give this pain to somebody else
Cause I can make you hurt
I can take you down so low I’ll make you want to cry
I can make you say goodbye
I can make you hurt
I can take you down so low and then you’ll know that maybe
You’d be better off when I’m not around
I can make you cry
I can make you say goodbye
I can make you hurt
I can take you down so low and then you’ll know that maybe
You’d be better off when I’m not around
Got a way of disappointing that you wouldn’t believe
I can take a good intention and turn it on its head
I can make you pray to God and wish we’d never met

If you want something broke you better give it to me

Roses lyrics - Darren Hayes
What if I told you that your time was up,
That as every second passes there's a moment gone,
And in twenty three hours the sun is gonna set, forever.
Would you hug a little tighter, would you let go first,
Would you focus on love and then forget the hurt,
Living the moment and wish your life away.
How would you spend your last night on earth,
Would you kiss your enemies say sorry first,
Would you take enough time to say your last goodbyes.
All the little battles that you never won,
All the music in the opera never sung,
Emotions that were silent all these years,
You can't smell the roses when you're gone,
You can't smell the roses, no it's not a rehearsal,
You only get one life so make it right,
You can't smell the roses when you're gone,
So live every moment like it's the last night on earth,
Cause this is the last night on earth.
What if I told you that I had regrets,
I would trade in all my happiness for one last kiss,
For a minute or two lying by your side.
What if I chose over nobody more,
If I uttered only promises with empty talk,
If I knew back then the things that I know now.
I would tell you that I love you then we'd all get low,
There are peaks and there are valleys, you've got to have known,
A second chance, it rarely comes around.
You can't smell the roses when you're gone,
You can't smell the roses, no it's not a rehearsal,
You only get one life so make it right,
You can't smell the roses when you're gone,
So live every moment like it's the last night on earth.
If I could have my time again,
I would make sure you knew just how I feel,
Somewhere I wait for much too long,
And the seasons change without me.
You can't smell the roses when you're gone,
You can't smell the roses, no it's not a rehearsal,
You only get one life so make it right,
You can't smell the roses when you're gone,
So live every moment like it's the last night on earth,
As if it's the last night on earth,
Cause this is the last night for love.
That as every second passes there's a moment gone,
And in twenty three hours the sun is gonna set, forever.
Would you hug a little tighter, would you let go first,
Would you focus on love and then forget the hurt,
Living the moment and wish your life away.
How would you spend your last night on earth,
Would you kiss your enemies say sorry first,
Would you take enough time to say your last goodbyes.
All the little battles that you never won,
All the music in the opera never sung,
Emotions that were silent all these years,
You can't smell the roses when you're gone,
You can't smell the roses, no it's not a rehearsal,
You only get one life so make it right,
You can't smell the roses when you're gone,
So live every moment like it's the last night on earth,
Cause this is the last night on earth.
What if I told you that I had regrets,
I would trade in all my happiness for one last kiss,
For a minute or two lying by your side.
What if I chose over nobody more,
If I uttered only promises with empty talk,
If I knew back then the things that I know now.
I would tell you that I love you then we'd all get low,
There are peaks and there are valleys, you've got to have known,
A second chance, it rarely comes around.
You can't smell the roses when you're gone,
You can't smell the roses, no it's not a rehearsal,
You only get one life so make it right,
You can't smell the roses when you're gone,
So live every moment like it's the last night on earth.
If I could have my time again,
I would make sure you knew just how I feel,
Somewhere I wait for much too long,
And the seasons change without me.
You can't smell the roses when you're gone,
You can't smell the roses, no it's not a rehearsal,
You only get one life so make it right,
You can't smell the roses when you're gone,
So live every moment like it's the last night on earth,
As if it's the last night on earth,
Cause this is the last night for love.
Stupid Mistake lyrics - Darren Hayes
I don't wanna love and
I don't want anybody else
Anybody else to either
I don't want faith
I don't wanna start another war
A kingdom for my crowd of believers
Did I lose my calling
Did I lose you
Don't lovers always get what they want?
[Chorus:]
I made a stupid mistake
And my world crashed down
All around me oh oh
I made a stupid mistake
And I threw it all away
Threw it all away
I got lazy on the wrong side of love
Now I'm searching every face
Every crowd for you for you
For you for you
I don't wanna stain
I don't want your love upon my hands
But I don't understand what I'm leaving
I don't wanna pray
I don't want a forgivenss from above
When none of this was of my believing
Did I choose to fall down
Did I lose you
Don't lovers always get what they want
[Chorus]
I've been walking around with my head in the dirt
I've been stripped of everything that ever made me converse
I've been lonely
I've been searching
The crowd for you for you
For you for you
I got lazy on the wrong side of love
I was stupid sold my kingdom for a war with you
Oh with you oh oh oh oh oh oh
[Chorus]
You don't want love
You don't want anybody else to either
I don't want anybody else
Anybody else to either
I don't want faith
I don't wanna start another war
A kingdom for my crowd of believers
Did I lose my calling
Did I lose you
Don't lovers always get what they want?
[Chorus:]
I made a stupid mistake
And my world crashed down
All around me oh oh
I made a stupid mistake
And I threw it all away
Threw it all away
I got lazy on the wrong side of love
Now I'm searching every face
Every crowd for you for you
For you for you
I don't wanna stain
I don't want your love upon my hands
But I don't understand what I'm leaving
I don't wanna pray
I don't want a forgivenss from above
When none of this was of my believing
Did I choose to fall down
Did I lose you
Don't lovers always get what they want
[Chorus]
I've been walking around with my head in the dirt
I've been stripped of everything that ever made me converse
I've been lonely
I've been searching
The crowd for you for you
For you for you
I got lazy on the wrong side of love
I was stupid sold my kingdom for a war with you
Oh with you oh oh oh oh oh oh
[Chorus]
You don't want love
You don't want anybody else to either
Cruel, Cruel World lyrics - Darren Hayes
I don't know how I'm supposed to feel
Without my tiny little pills
Sudden emotions
I have awoken
I'm wet behind the ears
To find myself in such a cruel cruel world
And nobody gets me
Nobody gets me
Nobody gets me like you
And everyone left me
Everyone left me
Everyone left me but you
You're the only one
The only one
The only who gets through
And when my hope is gone
I'm feeling numb
The only one I let though is you
You
You get me through
You get me through this cruel cruel world
It's been a battle for too long
And all my happiness has gone
Kindness erases a city of strangers
Deep down in my bones
All I wanna do is crawl back home to you
Cause nobody gets me
Nobody gets me
Nobody gets me like you
Everyone left me
Everyone left me
Everyone left me but you
And you're the only one
The only one
The only who gets through
And when my hope is gone
I'm feeling numb
The only one I let though is you
You
You get me through
You
You can get me through this cruel cruel world
This cruel cruel world
Ooooh
Cause you're the only one
The only one
The only one who gets through
And when my hope is gone
I'm feeling numb
The only one I let through is you
Is you
You
You get me through
You
You can get me through this cruel cruel world
This cruel cruel world
Without my tiny little pills
Sudden emotions
I have awoken
I'm wet behind the ears
To find myself in such a cruel cruel world
And nobody gets me
Nobody gets me
Nobody gets me like you
And everyone left me
Everyone left me
Everyone left me but you
You're the only one
The only one
The only who gets through
And when my hope is gone
I'm feeling numb
The only one I let though is you
You
You get me through
You get me through this cruel cruel world
It's been a battle for too long
And all my happiness has gone
Kindness erases a city of strangers
Deep down in my bones
All I wanna do is crawl back home to you
Cause nobody gets me
Nobody gets me
Nobody gets me like you
Everyone left me
Everyone left me
Everyone left me but you
And you're the only one
The only one
The only who gets through
And when my hope is gone
I'm feeling numb
The only one I let though is you
You
You get me through
You
You can get me through this cruel cruel world
This cruel cruel world
Ooooh
Cause you're the only one
The only one
The only one who gets through
And when my hope is gone
I'm feeling numb
The only one I let through is you
Is you
You
You get me through
You
You can get me through this cruel cruel world
This cruel cruel world
The Siren's Call lyrics - Darren Hayes
Tie me up against the mast and shield the sunlight from my eyes
I no longer can resist the haunting of her cries
They call me from the jagged rock
It was the sweetest melody
Like gold and honey dripping from the fingertips of God
I feel the wind against my face from the flapping of her wings
I feel the black and silky tenderness all choking me
But I can almost taste happiness
It's such a long way off
But I can almost feel your embrace
Above the siren's call
Now it's not beautiful or pure
But it exists beyond the shore
It struggles to be heard above the screeching of her call
Beneath my feet a rumbling
A hundred demons clambering
They chase away my harmony and make love afraid to call
They grow forever restless and as our ship sets out to sea
No they will not be silenced
Never for you or me
But I can almost taste happiness
It's such a long way off
But I can almost feel your embrace
Above the siren's call
And I've seen a hint of it
This happiness
This bliss
Just knowing it exists I know that I must try
And I've caught a glimpse of it
One moment just one kiss
From the corner of my eye
Of better days gone by
But I can almost taste happiness
But I can almost feel your embrace
I no longer can resist the haunting of her cries
They call me from the jagged rock
It was the sweetest melody
Like gold and honey dripping from the fingertips of God
I feel the wind against my face from the flapping of her wings
I feel the black and silky tenderness all choking me
But I can almost taste happiness
It's such a long way off
But I can almost feel your embrace
Above the siren's call
Now it's not beautiful or pure
But it exists beyond the shore
It struggles to be heard above the screeching of her call
Beneath my feet a rumbling
A hundred demons clambering
They chase away my harmony and make love afraid to call
They grow forever restless and as our ship sets out to sea
No they will not be silenced
Never for you or me
But I can almost taste happiness
It's such a long way off
But I can almost feel your embrace
Above the siren's call
And I've seen a hint of it
This happiness
This bliss
Just knowing it exists I know that I must try
And I've caught a glimpse of it
One moment just one kiss
From the corner of my eye
Of better days gone by
But I can almost taste happiness
But I can almost feel your embrace
Explode lyrics - Darren Hayes
You and I, we're falling over straight lines
Straight ahead, ignoring all the danger signs
And it's something that I knew before
I knew before, oh
In the dark, a supernova can't keep
A burning sun from changing into something new
And it's for the best, but the best for who?
I wish I knew, oh
This is the sound of my heartbeat falling
This is the sound of my love recalling
This is the sound of the dogs, they're howling
Calling to the moon
Can we explode
And come back together like the rising sun?
We'll be as one
Can we explode?
We'll rearrange the pieces in a different light
We'll make it right
Can we explode?
And take the total sum of us and make it one
Thy will be done
Can we explode?
All the missing parts of me are parts of you
We'll make it through
You and I, we hurt each other so deep
The track lines
The finger nails are down my spine
Has it got so hard we have to sew it up?
Oh, give it in
Oh
This is the sound of my love imploding
This is the sound of the years dissolving
This is the sound of my love hound howling
Calling to the moon.
Can we explode
And come back together like the rising sun?
We'll be as one
Can we explode?
We'll rearrange the pieces in a different light
We'll make it right
Can we explode?
And take the total sum of us and make it one
Thy will be done
Can we explode?
All the missing parts of me are parts of you
We'll make it through.
And all the pieces of love will find one another
And all the words left unsaid will say one another
There's a fire in me and a flame in my brother
From a tiny little spark to love
Can we explode?
Can we explode?
This is the sound of my heartbeat falling
(This is the sound)
This is the sound of my love recalling
(Oh, this is the sound)
This is the sound of the dogs, they're howling
(Oh no)
Calling to the moon
Oh, can we explode
And come back together like the rising sun?
(Like the rising sun)
We'll be as one
Can we explode?
We'll rearrange the pieces in a different light
We'll make it right
Can we explode?
And take the total sum of us and make it one
Thy will be done
Can we explode?
All the missing parts of me are parts of you
We'll make it through
Oh, can we explode?
Straight ahead, ignoring all the danger signs
And it's something that I knew before
I knew before, oh
In the dark, a supernova can't keep
A burning sun from changing into something new
And it's for the best, but the best for who?
I wish I knew, oh
This is the sound of my heartbeat falling
This is the sound of my love recalling
This is the sound of the dogs, they're howling
Calling to the moon

And come back together like the rising sun?
We'll be as one

And take the total sum of us and make it one

Can we explode?
All the missing parts of me are parts of you
We'll make it through
You and I, we hurt each other so deep

We'll make it right
Can we explode?
And take the total sum of us and make it one
Thy will be done
Can we explode?
All the missing parts of me are parts of you
We'll make it through
Oh, can we explode?
Perfect lyrics - Darren Hayes
Your love is a sonnet written on an empty shore
Sealed into a bottle and lost at sea.
Your love is an army trying to apologize
Your love is a soldier tired of war.
And all it could have been is like a symbol in the sand
And all our wasted love is like a language I don't understand.
But our love was perfect.
Pieces of a puzzle lying on the floor.
Beginning and ending
A story that continues never, evermore.
Your love is a whisper trying to become a roar.
Your love is a child crying out for more.
And all it could have been is like a symbol in the sand
And all our wasted love is like a language I don't understand.
Cause our love was perfect.
Pieces of a puzzle lying on the floor.
Beginning and ending
A story that continues never, evermore.
Cause I felt it
It cut deep.
It left a scar in my memory.
But your love was burned into me.
You've been hiding away
You've been hiding away.
And all it could have been is like a symbol in the sand.
And all our wasted love is like a language I don't understand.
But our love was perfect.
Pieces of a puzzle lying on the floor.
Beginning and ending...
A story that continues never, evermore.
(Never, evermore.)
Cause our love was perfect.
Pieces of a puzzle lying on the floor.
Beginning and ending...
A story that continues never, evermore.
(Oh...)
Our love...
(You've been hiding away)
Perfect.
(You've been hiding away)
Our love...
(You've been hiding away)
Perfect.
(You've been hiding away)
Our love...
(You've been hiding away)
Perfect.
(You've been hiding away)
Sealed into a bottle and lost at sea.
Your love is an army trying to apologize
Your love is a soldier tired of war.
And all it could have been is like a symbol in the sand
And all our wasted love is like a language I don't understand.
But our love was perfect.
Pieces of a puzzle lying on the floor.
Beginning and ending
A story that continues never, evermore.
Your love is a whisper trying to become a roar.
Your love is a child crying out for more.
And all it could have been is like a symbol in the sand
And all our wasted love is like a language I don't understand.
Cause our love was perfect.
Pieces of a puzzle lying on the floor.
Beginning and ending
A story that continues never, evermore.
Cause I felt it
It cut deep.
It left a scar in my memory.
But your love was burned into me.
You've been hiding away
You've been hiding away.
And all it could have been is like a symbol in the sand.
And all our wasted love is like a language I don't understand.
But our love was perfect.
Pieces of a puzzle lying on the floor.
Beginning and ending...
A story that continues never, evermore.
(Never, evermore.)
Cause our love was perfect.
Pieces of a puzzle lying on the floor.
Beginning and ending...
A story that continues never, evermore.
(Oh...)
Our love...
(You've been hiding away)
Perfect.
(You've been hiding away)
Our love...
(You've been hiding away)
Perfect.
(You've been hiding away)
Our love...
(You've been hiding away)
Perfect.
(You've been hiding away)
Tiny Little Flashlights lyrics - Darren Hayes
Listen, listen to me
This plane is gonna crash
It's only moments, you see
I never thought this could happen to me
I see my whole life flash in a perfect vision
Look out the window, and we're tumbling to the ground
Tiny little flashlights leading the way in the dark
Tiny little red lights leading the way to my heart
And when you're upside-down, and smoke is in the air
And when you're falling apart
You see those tiny little flashlights leading the way in the dark
Listen, listen to the roar
We're breaking up; we just lost engine number four
And as we're spiraling and crashing into the sea
I find a kind of stillness, baby
Within the chaos, it's finally just you and me
Tiny little flashlights leading the way in the dark
Tiny little red lights leading the way to my heart
And when you're upside-down, and smoke is in the air
And when you're falling apart
You see those tiny little flashlights leading the way in the dark
And we are just spinning wheels
Have we lost our landing gear?
And we are just spinning wheels
'Til there's nothing left to feel
Tiny little flashlights leading the way in the dark
Tiny little red lights blinking their way to my heart
And when you're upside-down, and smoke is in the air
And when you're falling apart
You see those tiny little flashlights leading the way in the dark
Tiny little flashlights leading the way in the dark, ohh
Tiny little red lights leading the way to my heart
This plane is gonna crash
It's only moments, you see
I never thought this could happen to me
I see my whole life flash in a perfect vision
Look out the window, and we're tumbling to the ground
Tiny little flashlights leading the way in the dark
Tiny little red lights leading the way to my heart
And when you're upside-down, and smoke is in the air
And when you're falling apart
You see those tiny little flashlights leading the way in the dark
Listen, listen to the roar
We're breaking up; we just lost engine number four
And as we're spiraling and crashing into the sea
I find a kind of stillness, baby
Within the chaos, it's finally just you and me
Tiny little flashlights leading the way in the dark
Tiny little red lights leading the way to my heart
And when you're upside-down, and smoke is in the air
And when you're falling apart
You see those tiny little flashlights leading the way in the dark
And we are just spinning wheels
Have we lost our landing gear?
And we are just spinning wheels
'Til there's nothing left to feel
Tiny little flashlights leading the way in the dark
Tiny little red lights blinking their way to my heart
And when you're upside-down, and smoke is in the air
And when you're falling apart
You see those tiny little flashlights leading the way in the dark
Tiny little flashlights leading the way in the dark, ohh
Tiny little red lights leading the way to my heart
Nothing lyrics - Darren Hayes
Come inside stop scratchin at my door
Live inside me help me count the ways you once adored
Lovers need a place to lay their head
As a broken promise returns too late
Another sunset meets an argument
Fade out of nowhere into nothing
Into nothing at all
How did my love turn into something
That you don't really want
Nothing nothing nothing
Our love turns into
Nothing nothing nothing
Our love turns into
When did your eyes get so icy blue
When did you stop seeing me as a reflection of you
Take me to the place of broken dreams
Where your hope deserted or showed up late
And tore apart the love we might have made
Fade out of nowhere into nothing
Into nothing at all
How did my love turn into something
That you don't really want
And we both know what you're thinking
But we cut through the straight lines
Fade out of nowhere into nothing
Into nothing at all
Nothing, nothing, nothing
Our love turns into nothing, nothing, nothing,
Our love turns into nothing, nothing, nothing
Our love turns into nothing, nothing, nothing
Our love turns into
No more excuses for turning away
You can't stop a heartache by running away
I can't sit back and watch love fade to gray
Ooooh
And into nothing at all
How did our love turn into something that you don't really want
And we both know what you're thinking
But we cut through the straight lines
Fade out of nowhere into nothing
Into nothing at all
Nothing nothing nothing
Our love turns into nothing, nothing, nothing,
Our love turns into nothing, nothing, nothing
Our love turns into nothing, nothing, nothing
Our love turns into
Ooooh
But we cut through the straight lines
Ooooh
Live inside me help me count the ways you once adored
Lovers need a place to lay their head
As a broken promise returns too late
Another sunset meets an argument
Fade out of nowhere into nothing
Into nothing at all
How did my love turn into something
That you don't really want
Nothing nothing nothing
Our love turns into
Nothing nothing nothing
Our love turns into
When did your eyes get so icy blue
When did you stop seeing me as a reflection of you
Take me to the place of broken dreams
Where your hope deserted or showed up late
And tore apart the love we might have made
Fade out of nowhere into nothing
Into nothing at all
How did my love turn into something
That you don't really want
And we both know what you're thinking
But we cut through the straight lines
Fade out of nowhere into nothing
Into nothing at all
Nothing, nothing, nothing
Our love turns into nothing, nothing, nothing,
Our love turns into nothing, nothing, nothing
Our love turns into nothing, nothing, nothing
Our love turns into
No more excuses for turning away
You can't stop a heartache by running away
I can't sit back and watch love fade to gray
Ooooh
And into nothing at all
How did our love turn into something that you don't really want
And we both know what you're thinking
But we cut through the straight lines
Fade out of nowhere into nothing
Into nothing at all
Nothing nothing nothing
Our love turns into nothing, nothing, nothing,
Our love turns into nothing, nothing, nothing
Our love turns into nothing, nothing, nothing
Our love turns into
Ooooh
But we cut through the straight lines
Ooooh
Glorious lyrics - Darren Hayes
You will never get older and you will never feel pain
Or fill the room with laughter like you used to
And I won't hear you speaking or others call your name
In spite of this the world will still continue
And you will always remain in my heart forever young
Sun and wind won't change you and you'll escape the hands of time
And now your beauty won't betray you and your future's paved with gold
But in my mind you are suspended and you will be forever young
I'm a little bit hopeful that we all carry on
But part of me still thinks we are just stardust
And from the highest mountain I went to make a sound
I thought that if I called out you would answer
But no one did
And you will always remain in my heart forever young
Sun and wind won't change you and you'll escape the hands of time
And now your beauty won't betray you and your future's paved with gold
But in my mind you are suspended and you will be forever young
I know the rules of the game
For every sunset the light has to fade
But baby a light like yours was so glorious
Glorious
Or fill the room with laughter like you used to
And I won't hear you speaking or others call your name
In spite of this the world will still continue
And you will always remain in my heart forever young
Sun and wind won't change you and you'll escape the hands of time
And now your beauty won't betray you and your future's paved with gold
But in my mind you are suspended and you will be forever young
I'm a little bit hopeful that we all carry on
But part of me still thinks we are just stardust
And from the highest mountain I went to make a sound
I thought that if I called out you would answer
But no one did
And you will always remain in my heart forever young
Sun and wind won't change you and you'll escape the hands of time
And now your beauty won't betray you and your future's paved with gold
But in my mind you are suspended and you will be forever young
I know the rules of the game
For every sunset the light has to fade
But baby a light like yours was so glorious
Glorious
A Fear Of Fallling Under lyrics - Darren Hayes
Deep into the water
Deep into the dark
Deep into the places
Stories have to start
Peel open the layers
Go in for the kill
Bite into the onion
Taste it for the thrill
Got a fear of falling under
Underneath the dream
A fear of diving too deep
Deep beneath the seams
A fear of falling under
Underneath the spell
A fear of what the truth sees
Secrets I will tell
Reach into the top hat
Reach in all alone
Reach in for a rabbit
Come up with a stone
Searching for pieces
Pieces left behind
Discarded moments
In the junkyard of my mind
Got a fear of falling under
Underneath the dream
A fear of diving too deep
Deep beneath the seams
A fear of falling under
Underneath the spell
A fear of what the truth sees
Secrets I will tell
What came first
Love, hurt?
Love, hurt?
Oh, what came first
Love, hurt?
Love, hurt?
Oh, what came first
Love, hurt?
Love, hurt?
Oh, what came first
Love, hurt?
Love, hurt?
Oh, what?
Deep into the dark
Deep into the places
Stories have to start
Peel open the layers
Go in for the kill
Bite into the onion
Taste it for the thrill
Got a fear of falling under
Underneath the dream
A fear of diving too deep
Deep beneath the seams
A fear of falling under
Underneath the spell
A fear of what the truth sees
Secrets I will tell
Reach into the top hat
Reach in all alone
Reach in for a rabbit
Come up with a stone
Searching for pieces
Pieces left behind
Discarded moments
In the junkyard of my mind
Got a fear of falling under
Underneath the dream
A fear of diving too deep
Deep beneath the seams
A fear of falling under
Underneath the spell
A fear of what the truth sees
Secrets I will tell
What came first
Love, hurt?
Love, hurt?
Oh, what came first
Love, hurt?
Love, hurt?
Oh, what came first
Love, hurt?
Love, hurt?
Oh, what came first
Love, hurt?
Love, hurt?
Oh, what?
Who Would Have Thought lyrics - Darren Hayes
Nobody told you
That a heart is like a deep, deep freeze
So many lies so much of it broken
Nobody told you
Deep within a well so cavenous
That maybe I could shed some light on
Who would have thought
It could be amazing?
Who would have thought
The tiny courageous?
Who would have thought
That love so belated
Could save me
And bring me back to you?
Nobody told you
There'd be days of silence that no one heard
A river swells and overwhelms you
And nobody told you
Deep within a heart so ravenous
That maybe I could spare a beat for
Who would have thought
It could be amazing?
Who would have thought
The tiny courageous?
Who would have thought
That love so belated
Could save me
And bring me back to you?
I had to find you, had to let you know
That you aren't all alone, yeah
We didn't make the rules
I had to find you, had to get right back
To you
I had to find you, had to let you know
That you aren't all alone, yeah
We didn't make the rules
I had to find you, had to get right back
To you, it's always been you
Now tell me
Who would have thought
It could be this amazing?
Now, who would have thought
The tiny courageous?
Tell me, who would have thought
That love so belated
Could save me
And bring me back to you?
That a heart is like a deep, deep freeze
So many lies so much of it broken
Nobody told you
Deep within a well so cavenous
That maybe I could shed some light on
Who would have thought
It could be amazing?
Who would have thought
The tiny courageous?
Who would have thought
That love so belated
Could save me
And bring me back to you?
Nobody told you
There'd be days of silence that no one heard
A river swells and overwhelms you
And nobody told you
Deep within a heart so ravenous
That maybe I could spare a beat for
Who would have thought
It could be amazing?
Who would have thought
The tiny courageous?
Who would have thought
That love so belated
Could save me
And bring me back to you?
I had to find you, had to let you know
That you aren't all alone, yeah
We didn't make the rules
I had to find you, had to get right back
To you
I had to find you, had to let you know
That you aren't all alone, yeah
We didn't make the rules
I had to find you, had to get right back
To you, it's always been you
Now tell me
Who would have thought
It could be this amazing?
Now, who would have thought
The tiny courageous?
Tell me, who would have thought
That love so belated
Could save me
And bring me back to you?
Waking The Monster lyrics - Darren Hayes
The professor is building
Something extraordinary
From the first signs
Well I knew he would hide it from me
Clang, clang, rattle, and buzz
There's a helicopter blade
And a bit of a truck
He's got no more quality time
To be going on adventures
Spending mornings on Blackheath
Using a Ouija board
Or finding hidden places
That had never been sought, I pray
Origami full of grace
The professor is mad
And he's working a feverish pace
Diabolical delicious things
Something is bad
And it's something within me
[Chorus:]
Do you know?
Do you know?
What is he building in there?
Gotta know
Gotta see
What is he building in there?
Gotta know
Gotta be
Something destructively daring
Disastardly it's got the best of me
The professor is building
All kinds of devilish device
Won't part with a singular bit of enlightenment
Bang, crash, glitter, and bug
There's a phonographic needle
And a stereo heart
He's got no plans to make an announcement
No preliminary sketches
Or advice to impart in me
One ounce of jealousy
Fifty-seven gallons juvenile delinquency
Super supremacy
I've gotta find an answer
Gotta fashion a skeleton key
Diabolical delicious deeds
Something's bad
And it's shrouded of secrecy
[Chorus]
(There are really four dimensions
Three...which we call the three planes of space
And a fourth
Time)
The professor is building
Something extraordinary
Behind bars
And a door he won't open for me
Kind words and the barrel of a gun
Will make him come to grips
Make him face up to what he's done
[Chorus x2]
Something extraordinary

How To Build A Time Machine lyrics - Darren Hayes
If I have understood correctly
Velocity equals the distance traveled
Divided by time
I've read every word ever printed
On quantum physics
And now it is time to try
I read your book, I found your notes
I dusted this thing off and turned on
The key
The rumbling motors
The buzzing incredible gadgets
The hissing electricity
And now the moment has come
I'm traveling back in time
They're running down the hall
I've started the countdown
They want me to stop
But I don't think so
I'm ready to go
Let's get the job done
Beyond the paradoxical
All the lights are dazzling
Pass the planes, and trains, and satellite navigation
Pass the time I spent today
Through the nearest wormhole
In a stunning ball
Of white
The light explodes and lands on you
And you're five
Always running away
And I was dying to kiss you
And I
I don't want to cry
I don't want to see
Where the moving van takes you
So I travel on
Beyond the stars
At one hundred and eighty-six thousand miles per second
I can fly
Forward a few years
To nineteen hundred and seventy nine
I caught a glimpse of the sky
They're coming down the road
They're coming to get me
I never should have come
I hide the time machine
I'm running down the hall
I think I'm in my old house
Pass the place where I grew up
Number nine Lake Road
Pass the swimming pool
And Mable park
And past Troy Clifford's house
To the Argonaut (?)
To the fish and chip shop
Out the back and down the road
To the place I got beat up
Hey, put that rock down
Can't you see he's half your size?
Hey, he looks familiar
Oh my god, he's me, age nine
Put your shoes on
And run away from here
I can't get involved
This is all so weird
I'm meeting myself
This is all so clear
All the things I've lost
All the people I've hurt
All the times I lied
All the moments wasted
All I never did
All the dreams I had
All the things I would change
I can change them
All the things I've lost
All the people I've hurt
All the times I lied
All the moments wasted
I'm gonna make right
What I did wrong
And change how the future has come
Through appliance of science
I'll take a hold of my enemies
Take their obscenities
Kiss them, and leave them like lovers who've gone
I'll call my dad
I'll tell him I miss him
And tell my reflection: 'it's not your fault'
And now the moment has come
I'm traveling back in time
They're running down the hall
I've started the countdown
They want me to stop
But I don't think so
I'm ready to go
Let's get the job done
Put your shoes on and
Run away from here
I can't get involved
This is all so weird (It's me aged nine)
Let's get the job done
All the things I've lost
All the people I've hurt
All the times I lied
All the moments wasted
All I never did
All the dreams I had
All the things I would change
I can change them
Beyond the paradoxical
All the lights are dazzling
Pass the planes, and trains, and satellite navigation
Pass the time I spent today

Casey lyrics - Darren Hayes
Driving in your car
With the windows down
And the beat up stereo
Struggle with this town
Cuz you love to hate it
And hate it to let it go
And we're all alone
And so tired of being
Underrated
So don't take me home
Cuz I feel alive
When you come and save me
A yellow car
Speeding down the Southside freeway
We'll rewrite this movie
Make it end like we want it to
And Casey
When you go
Can you come and find me
Wanna be beside you
When you leave this town
I've been waving goodbye
Pretending not to cry
I want to be someone
If you take me away
All the pain will change
Into a memory...
Of when we were amazing
1989
Summer had hit
But it was not moving
What is it with this town?
Every time we win
It just feels like losing
We were never gonna fit in
I was a mixed up kid
And you were my sanity
In a yellow car
We don't even have to go far
Cuz that song you're playing
Sounds like peace on the radio
And Casey
When you go
Can you come and find me
Wanna be beside you
When you leave this town
I've been waving goodbye
Pretending not to cry
I want to be someone
If you take me away
All the pain will change
Into a memory
Of when we were amazing
When we were amazing
I know things will change
Casey stay the same
Take me away
Oh, we don't have to go far
Yeah, we don't have to go far
I know
Casey
When you go
Can you come and find me
Wanna be beside you
When you leave this town
I've been waving goodbye
Pretending not to cry
I want to be someone
If you take me away
All the pain will change
Into a memory
Of when we were
When we were
Casey
When you go
Can you come and find me
Wanna be beside you
When you leave this town
I've been waving goodbye
Pretending not to cry
I want to be someone
If you take me away
All the pain will change
Into a memory
Of when we were amazing
When we were
Driving in your car
With the windows down
And the beat up stereo
Oh, oh
I wanna
I'm gonna
I wanna
Be someone
I wanna
I'm gonna
I wanna
Be someone
(I will run to you
I will come to you
I will run to you
I will come to you)
Come on and get me
Come on and rescue me
(I will run to you
I will come to you
I will run to you
I will come to you)
Coming through the sky
Like a satellite
Like a radio wave
A meteorite
With the windows down
And the beat up stereo
Struggle with this town
Cuz you love to hate it
And hate it to let it go
And we're all alone
And so tired of being
Underrated
So don't take me home
Cuz I feel alive

Step Into The Light lyrics - Darren Hayes
I have turned away from you
And I am godless
A wasteland of poison
A hidden fortress
I have blackened out the stars
And hidden frequencies
I have silenced all the waves
And forbidden secrecies
So step into your light
This dog doesn't bite, oh
I just wanna be your friend
You know, I've never been in love before
I've never been in love before
There is nothing of you now
No ghost, no not a trace
No flower, not a seed
Nor perfume in your place
I have searched amidst
A barren plane of emptiness
I am worthless, It is futile
You're invisible, I am infantile
So step into your light, oh
This dog doesn't bite, oh
I just wanna be your friend
You know, I've never been in love before
I've never been in love before
I have murdered the divine in me
Set the goodness free
I have squandered it all
I am less than the sum
I am parts of the whole
There is something missing
There is something I stole
(There is something I stole) [x4]
Why have you forsaken me?
Where do you hide?
I feel the betrayal
Simmers, it blisters
It digs down and burrows
Deeper inside, more than a try
(I've never been in love before)
I cannot deny
(I've never been in love before)
That it...
(I've never been in love before)
It feels like...[x6]
(I've never been in love before) [x6]
Love
So step into the light, oh
This dog doesn't bite, oh
I just wanna be your friend
You know that I've never been in love before
I've never been in love before
So step into the light, oh
You know this dog doesn't bite, oh
They caught up our hands
You know, I've never been in love before
And I am godless
A wasteland of poison
A hidden fortress
I have blackened out the stars
And hidden frequencies
I have silenced all the waves
And forbidden secrecies
So step into your light
This dog doesn't bite, oh
I just wanna be your friend
You know, I've never been in love before
I've never been in love before
There is nothing of you now
No ghost, no not a trace
No flower, not a seed
Nor perfume in your place
I have searched amidst
A barren plane of emptiness
I am worthless, It is futile
You're invisible, I am infantile
So step into your light, oh
This dog doesn't bite, oh
I just wanna be your friend
You know, I've never been in love before
I've never been in love before
I have murdered the divine in me
Set the goodness free
I have squandered it all
I am less than the sum
I am parts of the whole
There is something missing

That it...
(I've never been in love before)
It feels like...[x6]
(I've never been in love before) [x6]
Love
So step into the light, oh
This dog doesn't bite, oh
I just wanna be your friend
You know that I've never been in love before
I've never been in love before
So step into the light, oh
You know this dog doesn't bite, oh
They caught up our hands
You know, I've never been in love before
Sing To Me lyrics - Darren Hayes
You step behind a curtain
In a moment you were gone
Nothing's ever certain
And it's hard to carry on
This is not what we planned
And I know its hard to understand
But if this isn't what you want then
If this isn't what you need pry my fingers from your hand
And maybe it's just meant to be
Maybe you'll find a way to haunt me
Come back and sing a melody to me
Maybe we're just lost at sea
Maybe I'm holding on to driftwood
And I'll be alright if you could
Sing to me
Sing to me
You step beneath the landslide
Nothing feels right when you're wrong
And try to find an upside
Try to sing without a song
This is not what we planned
And I know its hard to understand
But if this isn't what you want then
And maybe it's just meant to be
Maybe you'll find a way to haunt me
Come back and sing a melody to me
Maybe we're just lost at sea
Maybe I'm holding on to driftwood
And I'll be alright if you could
Sing to me
Sing to me
I keep seeing flashes of your hands
When I close my eyes
And I don't know why
And I don't know why
Help me make sense of what I don't understand
'Cause I've gotta know why
I've gotta know why
Tell me why do you sing to me?
And maybe it's just meant to be
That you would sing to me
Maybe we're just lost at sea
Could you come sing for me?
And maybe it's just meant to be
Maybe we're just lost at sea
Would you come sing for me?
Sing for me
In a moment you were gone
Nothing's ever certain
And it's hard to carry on
This is not what we planned
And I know its hard to understand
But if this isn't what you want then
If this isn't what you need pry my fingers from your hand
And maybe it's just meant to be
Maybe you'll find a way to haunt me
Come back and sing a melody to me
Maybe we're just lost at sea
Maybe I'm holding on to driftwood
And I'll be alright if you could
Sing to me
Sing to me
You step beneath the landslide
Nothing feels right when you're wrong
And try to find an upside
Try to sing without a song
This is not what we planned
And I know its hard to understand
But if this isn't what you want then
And maybe it's just meant to be
Maybe you'll find a way to haunt me
Come back and sing a melody to me
Maybe we're just lost at sea
Maybe I'm holding on to driftwood
And I'll be alright if you could
Sing to me
Sing to me
I keep seeing flashes of your hands
When I close my eyes
And I don't know why
And I don't know why
Help me make sense of what I don't understand
'Cause I've gotta know why
I've gotta know why
Tell me why do you sing to me?
And maybe it's just meant to be
That you would sing to me
Maybe we're just lost at sea
Could you come sing for me?
And maybe it's just meant to be
Maybe we're just lost at sea
Would you come sing for me?
Sing for me
A Conversation With God lyrics - Darren Hayes
We're driving
Just me and God
It's raining
It's raining hard
The windows
Are steaming up
The bridge
Engulfed by fog
The rust of
The metal bridge
It beckons
It pulls me in
I argue
I scream at God
And what he's offering
[Chorus:]
My hands fly off the steering wheel
Can't recall getting here
If I could, I would reach behind
And turn my light off
My thoughts run off the beaten track
There's no lighthouse or way back
Take the hand of God
And bite the feeder
No more lingering
I'm driving
I talk to God
He's screaming
I only nod
I need to
Be where you are
The leaves and trees
Are shaking
It's raining
The bullets melt
The hunger
Of hunger itself
It's draining, but pain has reservoirs
It keeps for itself
[Chorus]
I'm falling
I'm not myself
I'm diving
I'm underneath
The hull of
A mighty ship
That steams away from here
The bubbles
The surface race
They shine and
They replicate
I hear it
The Voice of God
Is laced with sarcasm
In your hands
And my thoughts run off the beaten track
There's no light
How's the way back
Take the hand of God
And bite the feeder
No more lingering
My hands fly off the steering wheel
Can't recall getting here
If I could, I would reach behind
And turn my light off
Just me and God
It's raining
It's raining hard
The windows
Are steaming up
The bridge
Engulfed by fog
The rust of
The metal bridge
It beckons
It pulls me in
I argue
I scream at God
And what he's offering
[Chorus:]
My hands fly off the steering wheel
Can't recall getting here
If I could, I would reach behind
And turn my light off
My thoughts run off the beaten track
There's no lighthouse or way back
Take the hand of God
And bite the feeder
No more lingering
I'm driving
I talk to God
He's screaming
I only nod
I need to
Be where you are
The leaves and trees
Are shaking
It's raining
The bullets melt
The hunger
Of hunger itself
It's draining, but pain has reservoirs
It keeps for itself
[Chorus]
I'm falling
I'm not myself
I'm diving
I'm underneath
The hull of
A mighty ship
That steams away from here
The bubbles
The surface race
They shine and
They replicate
I hear it
The Voice of God
Is laced with sarcasm
In your hands
And my thoughts run off the beaten track
There's no light
How's the way back
Take the hand of God
And bite the feeder
No more lingering
My hands fly off the steering wheel
Can't recall getting here
If I could, I would reach behind
And turn my light off
The Sun Is Always Blinding Me lyrics - Darren Hayes
From the top of a church on a hill
To the tip of a dragonfly wing
From the shine off a hood of cab
To a shimmering diamond within on a ring
That was worn through two world wars
From a smile that soars though its old and worn
And two blue eyes forever seeming cold
[Chorus:]
The sun is always blinding me with her light
The day is always hiding behind the night
And one day everybody will be alright
Go on blinding me with her light
From the glare of a red traffic light
To the blur of a bicycle wheel
From the flare of a camera lens
To a fluorescent light that ignites and displays
Someone leaving a goodbye note
From a pen made of steel and reflection of hope
And to some words to stir an aching soul
[Chorus]
From a fire that burns in the darkest well
Of a cave so enslaved
I can hear her yell, I can tell
This bird just wants to be free
So set her free
And if this world should ever leave you cold
[Chorus x2]
To the tip of a dragonfly wing
From the shine off a hood of cab
To a shimmering diamond within on a ring
That was worn through two world wars
From a smile that soars though its old and worn
And two blue eyes forever seeming cold
[Chorus:]
The sun is always blinding me with her light
The day is always hiding behind the night
And one day everybody will be alright
Go on blinding me with her light
From the glare of a red traffic light
To the blur of a bicycle wheel
From the flare of a camera lens
To a fluorescent light that ignites and displays
Someone leaving a goodbye note
From a pen made of steel and reflection of hope
And to some words to stir an aching soul
[Chorus]
From a fire that burns in the darkest well
Of a cave so enslaved
I can hear her yell, I can tell
This bird just wants to be free
So set her free
And if this world should ever leave you cold
[Chorus x2]
Listen All You People lyrics - Darren Hayes
Listen all you people
All you lonely and deserted
The departed
And the broken-hearted
I've got time for you
You can call your friends
For we're headed on a journey
All the lonely
The mad
All the bad
Hold a sec
I've got a message for you
Nothing's peaches and cream
Nothing's quite what it seems
They've been lying to you
All you unhappy wives
All you pregnant brides
All you geeks
And you queens
All you sick
And you poor
All the drunks
On the floor
Well, I'm calling to you
Listen all you people
All you lonely and deserted
The departed
And the broken-hearted
I've got time for you
You can call your friends
For we're headed on a journey
We've been held down
We've been pushed down now
We're through
All the freaks
All the queers
All the thumbs
All the steers
Well it's time to give in
There's crack in the door
It's okay to want more
You've been dying for years
All the races you lost
All the loveless that cost you
The hard earned sleep
All the stifled reactions
The screams you been acting
Like no one can hear you
Listen all you people
All you lonely and deserted
The departed
And the broken-hearted
I've got time for you
Sending out a message
Gotta get to you
Sending out a message
Is it coming through
(Sending out a message
Gotta get to you
Sending out a message
Is it coming through)
Listen all you people
All you lonely and deserted
Listen all you people
All you lonely and deserted
We've been held down
We've been pushed down now
We're through
Listen all you people
Are you lonely and deserted?
All you lonely and deserted
The departed
And the broken-hearted
I've got time for you
You can call your friends
For we're headed on a journey
All the lonely
The mad
All the bad
Hold a sec
I've got a message for you
Nothing's peaches and cream
Nothing's quite what it seems
They've been lying to you
All you unhappy wives
All you pregnant brides
All you geeks
And you queens
All you sick
And you poor
All the drunks
On the floor
Well, I'm calling to you
Listen all you people
All you lonely and deserted
The departed
And the broken-hearted
I've got time for you
You can call your friends
For we're headed on a journey
We've been held down
We've been pushed down now
We're through
All the freaks
All the queers
All the thumbs
All the steers
Well it's time to give in
There's crack in the door
It's okay to want more
You've been dying for years
All the races you lost
All the loveless that cost you
The hard earned sleep
All the stifled reactions
The screams you been acting
Like no one can hear you
Listen all you people
All you lonely and deserted
The departed
And the broken-hearted
I've got time for you
Sending out a message

Sending out a message

(Sending out a message

Listen all you people
All you lonely and deserted
Listen all you people
All you lonely and deserted
We've been held down
We've been pushed down now
We're through
Listen all you people
Are you lonely and deserted?
The Only One lyrics - Darren Hayes
In a world so cynical
You came in and changed the ball
From black to white
And made me right
This is all atypical
No one else has had the time
To read the signs
You are the only one
No one else can keep me from
The danger of myself
You keep me stronger
You are the only one
And now I love you even more
Than I did before
I've got such a jealous side
Reaching out
I try to hide
My infant stride
And in my mind
This is all so prototype
Make it wrong to make it feel right
Don't deny it
'Cause you are the only one
No one can keep me from
The danger I possess
You keep me stronger
You are the only one
And now I love you even more
Than I did before
And when they make the call
For one last drink
When my self-esteem seems below
And when no one knows it
When the colors all collide inside
Well, I can barely hide
You are the only one
No one else can keep me from
The danger of myself
You keep me stronger
You are the only one
And now I love you even more
There is no other
No one else I place above you
You are the only one
And now I love you even more
Than I did before
You came in and changed the ball
From black to white
And made me right
This is all atypical
No one else has had the time
To read the signs
You are the only one
No one else can keep me from
The danger of myself
You keep me stronger
You are the only one
And now I love you even more
Than I did before
I've got such a jealous side
Reaching out
I try to hide
My infant stride
And in my mind
This is all so prototype
Make it wrong to make it feel right
Don't deny it
'Cause you are the only one
No one can keep me from
The danger I possess
You keep me stronger
You are the only one
And now I love you even more
Than I did before
And when they make the call
For one last drink
When my self-esteem seems below
And when no one knows it
When the colors all collide inside
Well, I can barely hide
You are the only one
No one else can keep me from
The danger of myself
You keep me stronger
You are the only one
And now I love you even more
There is no other
No one else I place above you
You are the only one
And now I love you even more
Than I did before
Bombs Up In My Face lyrics - Darren Hayes
Now everybody's beautiful
When they're young
And I should know
I've had more than my share of fun
There's all this fascination
With the impossibly thin
With the surface of things
Airbrush Photoshop creation
In all that we are losing
Aren't we just confusing
Youth with beauty?
Truth with duty?
There's something on the telly 'bout North Korea
Some war broke out don't trust the media
I'd like to get a suntan
Some dude was shot in Pakistan
The track's got noddage
Moves my boddage
The track's got noddage
The track's got noddage
They've got those bombs up in the planes
They've got those bombs up in the trains
They've got those bombs up in my face
Don't wanna talk about it
[x2]
I was walking through the city
Past a phone shop and a homeless man
Was lying there looked almost dead
And no one seemed to bother
I ran into a rock and roll band
Two or three of them, maybe four
This one punk just 19 years old
He gave me his persuasion
He looked at me with his one black eye
Looked down on me like I didn't have a life
And he was right
At least not the kinda life he'd been paradin'
Same sex union (ooh!)
Change the constitution
You can carry a gun
But you better not fall in love with someone
The President who fucked the world
For every future boy and girl
Is golfing in Aruba
With a suntan and scuba
The track's got noddage
Moves my boddage
The track's got noddage
Moves my boddage
Moves my boddage
Moves my boddage
They've got those bombs up in the planes
They've got those bombs up in the trains
They've got those bombs up in my face
Don't wanna talk about it
[x2]
Now everybody dies or fades away
A permutation white and grey
A synergy of light and dust
And skin cells constantly aging
You fell in love with the dream
To fuck forever endlessly
But you don't, and that's ok
The rest is better anyway
Botox bungle CNN
Infomercial count to ten
Change the channel VCR
Something's on my radar
The track's got noddage
Moves my boddage
The track's got noddage
They've got those bombs up in the planes
They've got those bombs up in the trains
They've got those bombs up in my face
Don't wanna talk about it
[x4]
They've got those bombs up in the planes
They've got those bombs up in the trains
Don't want to talk about it
When they're young
And I should know
I've had more than my share of fun
There's all this fascination
With the impossibly thin
With the surface of things
Airbrush Photoshop creation
In all that we are losing
Aren't we just confusing
Youth with beauty?

The Great Big Disconnect lyrics - Darren Hayes
You got God if you paid for it
You got sex if you prayed for it
And those ever elusive weapons of mass destruction
You got Jesus with the palest skin
You had Lenin but you wasted him
I got sleeping pills that'll make you wanna call your mama
Everyone's keeping their love far away
Everyone's keeping their love far away
Keeping their love far away
Everyone's keeping their love far away
You got phones with 3D eyes
And you're lonely but you don't know why
Somebody just killed a man and I forgot to moisturize
You got AIDS in Africa
You got Paris in a new sports bra
You got therapists to justify your behavior
Everyone's keeping their love far away
Everyone's keeping their love far away
Keeping their love far away
Everyone's keeping their love far away
And I loved your company
So full with generosity
I've something else to say
But it must have slipped my mind
It must've slipped my mind
So write another love song
And pretend that nothing's wrong
And if a feeling comes
Just call me in the morning
Everyone's keeping their love far away
Everyone's keeping their love far away
Keeping their love far away
Everyone's keeping their love far away
[repeat to end]
You got sex if you prayed for it
And those ever elusive weapons of mass destruction
You got Jesus with the palest skin
You had Lenin but you wasted him
I got sleeping pills that'll make you wanna call your mama
Everyone's keeping their love far away
Everyone's keeping their love far away
Keeping their love far away
Everyone's keeping their love far away
You got phones with 3D eyes
And you're lonely but you don't know why
Somebody just killed a man and I forgot to moisturize
You got AIDS in Africa
You got Paris in a new sports bra
You got therapists to justify your behavior
Everyone's keeping their love far away
Everyone's keeping their love far away
Keeping their love far away
Everyone's keeping their love far away
And I loved your company
So full with generosity
I've something else to say
But it must have slipped my mind
It must've slipped my mind
So write another love song
And pretend that nothing's wrong
And if a feeling comes
Just call me in the morning
Everyone's keeping their love far away
Everyone's keeping their love far away
Keeping their love far away
Everyone's keeping their love far away
[repeat to end]
The Future Holds A Lion's Heart lyrics - Darren Hayes
When I first escaped the city of York
And leapt out of this cage
No silicon chip could sublimate
Or tame this temptuous rage
When my heart was in the attic
Like the picture of Dorian Gray
I was rescued by the enemy
That dare not speak it's name
Say hello to your future
I'm just pleased to meet you
You were a million miles away
Say hello to your lion's heart
Queen Victoria's England
Will never ever be the same
Giddyup!
When I left the warm surroundings
Of my selfish difficult stage
When our eyes first met there was deja-vu
And a feeling I could not shake
Then gravity seduced me
And drew me to this place
I could swear we were together
In an entirely different age
Say hello to your future
I'm just pleased to meet you
You were a million miles away
Say hello to your lion's heart
Queen Victoria's England
Will never ever be the same
So wonderfully good looking
With fine and delicate lines
If I place this face in carbon freeze
It will never be affected by time
She said "Don't confuse your beauty
With the insolence of youth.
You can move through time in one direction.
Sad but it's the truth"
But it took so long to meet you
But it took so long to meet you
It took so long to meet you
It's time to go
It's time to leave
You should never have come
Get back to the craft
Get back to your age
Take somebody with you
Giddyup!
Say hello to your future
I'm just pleased to meet you
You were a million miles away
Say hello to your lion's heart
Queen Victoria's England
Will never ever be the same
[x2]
And leapt out of this cage
No silicon chip could sublimate
Or tame this temptuous rage
When my heart was in the attic
Like the picture of Dorian Gray
I was rescued by the enemy
That dare not speak it's name
Say hello to your future
I'm just pleased to meet you
You were a million miles away
Say hello to your lion's heart
Queen Victoria's England
Will never ever be the same
Giddyup!
When I left the warm surroundings
Of my selfish difficult stage
When our eyes first met there was deja-vu
And a feeling I could not shake
Then gravity seduced me
And drew me to this place
I could swear we were together
In an entirely different age
Say hello to your future
I'm just pleased to meet you
You were a million miles away
Say hello to your lion's heart
Queen Victoria's England
Will never ever be the same
So wonderfully good looking
With fine and delicate lines
If I place this face in carbon freeze
It will never be affected by time
She said "Don't confuse your beauty
With the insolence of youth.
You can move through time in one direction.
Sad but it's the truth"
But it took so long to meet you
But it took so long to meet you
It took so long to meet you
It's time to go

You should never have come
Get back to the craft
Get back to your age
Take somebody with you
Giddyup!
Say hello to your future
I'm just pleased to meet you
You were a million miles away
Say hello to your lion's heart
Queen Victoria's England
Will never ever be the same

On The Verge Of Something Wonderful lyrics - Darren Hayes
A serpent, a rabbit
A walk in the forest
A tentative looking son
A feeling, a moment
A bursting of bubbles
A panic to overcome
A samurai, an angel
An eloquent table
An AC that does not work
A road trip, a car wreck
A paperback novel
A lover who ain't been hurt
When you let me go
And I'm on my way
When the world below
Is cold and gray
On the verge of
On the verge of something wonderful
A resurgence
On the edge of something wonderful
For it, against it
Said he never meant it
But Harry still dropped the bomb
A trip to, the dentist
The Hollywood blacklist
A moment that time forgot
When you let me go
And I'm on my way
When the world below
Is cold and gray
On the verge of
On the verge of something wonderful
On the edge of
On the verge of something wonderful
You can dance in the devil's shoes
If you like walking in heels
And there's a decent living to be made
In the selling out of ideals
You can lose your way in the big city
Get distracted and lost in being pretty
I want you, I need you
I don't wanna please you
Or belong to anyone
But life is, for leading
For not people pleasing
A race that has never been won
When you let me go
And I'm on my way
When the world below
Is cold and grey
On the verge of
On the verge of something wonderful
On the edge of
On the verge of something wonderful
On the verge of
On the verge of something wonderful
A resurgence
On the edge of something wonderful
A walk in the forest
A tentative looking son
A feeling, a moment
A bursting of bubbles
A panic to overcome
A samurai, an angel
An eloquent table
An AC that does not work
A road trip, a car wreck
A paperback novel
A lover who ain't been hurt
When you let me go
And I'm on my way
When the world below
Is cold and gray
On the verge of
On the verge of something wonderful
A resurgence
On the edge of something wonderful
For it, against it
Said he never meant it
But Harry still dropped the bomb
A trip to, the dentist
The Hollywood blacklist
A moment that time forgot
When you let me go
And I'm on my way
When the world below
Is cold and gray
On the verge of
On the verge of something wonderful
On the edge of
On the verge of something wonderful
You can dance in the devil's shoes
If you like walking in heels
And there's a decent living to be made
In the selling out of ideals
You can lose your way in the big city
Get distracted and lost in being pretty
I want you, I need you
I don't wanna please you
Or belong to anyone
But life is, for leading
For not people pleasing
A race that has never been won
When you let me go
And I'm on my way
When the world below

On the verge of
On the verge of something wonderful
On the edge of
On the verge of something wonderful
On the verge of
On the verge of something wonderful
A resurgence
On the edge of something wonderful
Neverland lyrics - Darren Hayes
Long ago
When mercury descended high on the moon
Far below
Where little hands are making shapes in the room
The shadows they dance
And they cheer up this place
The face
That's staring through the tiny crack in the door
Eyes so wide
He's never seen a women fall on the floor
I swear daddy's killed her this time
Should I make a rocket?
Should I try to fly away?
Should I make a hammer?
Should I try to smash his face?
Should I make a bullet?
Should I try to shoot the gun?
I'm sure the judge will let me off real soon.
Long ago
When saturn tried to find a way past the sun
Deep inside
A little boy is turning pain into fun
The pencils, the crayons, the paint colors run
The plans
Are forming slowly made with scissors and glue
Eyes so wide
He's telling mommy all the things he can do
He'll sketch a contraption to save them for sure
He can draw an alien
He can come and take them home
He can draw a cartoon
He can draw a safety hatch
He can draw a hot bath
He can plug a toaster in
And wait till daddy's nice and warm
Toss it in
And then when he's gone
There's a neverland of fun
Take a loaded gun.
Take a shot of rum.
Take a poison rat.
There's a lesson in that.
No more closing fists.
No more face to hit.
No more bloody nose or apologetic roses.
Long ago when mercury descended high on the moon.
Should I make a rocket?
Should I try to fly away?
Far below little hands are making shapes in the room.
Should I make a hammer?
Should I try to smash his face?
Long ago when Saturn tried to find a way past the sun.
Should I draw are cartoon?
Should I draw an alien?
Deep inside a little boy is turning pain into fun.
Should I draw a hot bath?
Should I throw the toaster in?
When mercury descended high on the moon
Far below
Where little hands are making shapes in the room
The shadows they dance
And they cheer up this place
The face
That's staring through the tiny crack in the door
Eyes so wide
He's never seen a women fall on the floor
I swear daddy's killed her this time
Should I make a rocket?
Should I try to fly away?
Should I make a hammer?
Should I try to smash his face?
Should I make a bullet?
Should I try to shoot the gun?
I'm sure the judge will let me off real soon.

Walk Away lyrics - Darren Hayes
I have been angry for so long now
I let you know
Should have walked away when I was young
I let you go
I turned away but maybe I was wrong
I've been polishing blame for so long now
My pride and joy
A bit tragedy never hurt somehow
This man become a boy
You took the blame but maybe I was wrong
Walk away now and be gone
You don't have to want to go on
I can see its killing you
You don't always have to be so strong for me
Every angel had dirty hands
Even Judas planned to just carry on
Just picking up the pieces
Of what lies behind those sorrowful eyes
You can walk away
You have been silent for so long
I let the world know
I turned a bit of my pain into a song
Then carried on
You took my shame but maybe that was wrong
Walk away now and be gone
You don't have to want to go on
Even when they're killing you
You don't always have to be so strong for me
Every angel had dirty hands
Even Judas planned to just carry on
Just picking up the pieces
Of what lies behind those sorrowful eyes
You can walk away
Now and be strong
I know you can carry on
Walk away now and be gone
You don't have to want to carry
All the pain inside you
Cause the blood in me is the your blood every time I fall
Walk away now and be gone
Even when its killing you
You don't always have to be so strong for me
Walk away now and be gone
'Cause you know even Judas planned to just carry on
Still picking up the pieces
Of what lies behind those sorrowful eyes
You can walk away
Now and be strong
You don't have to carry on
Walk away now and be strong
You don't have to want to go on
Walk away now and be strong
You don't have to want to go on
Walk away
Walk away now
Walk away now
Oh
You don't have to go on
You don't have to be strong
Walk away now
You can walk away
I let you know
Should have walked away when I was young
I let you go
I turned away but maybe I was wrong
I've been polishing blame for so long now
My pride and joy
A bit tragedy never hurt somehow
This man become a boy
You took the blame but maybe I was wrong
Walk away now and be gone
You don't have to want to go on
I can see its killing you
You don't always have to be so strong for me
Every angel had dirty hands
Even Judas planned to just carry on
Just picking up the pieces
Of what lies behind those sorrowful eyes
You can walk away
You have been silent for so long
I let the world know
I turned a bit of my pain into a song
Then carried on
You took my shame but maybe that was wrong
Walk away now and be gone
You don't have to want to go on
Even when they're killing you
You don't always have to be so strong for me
Every angel had dirty hands
Even Judas planned to just carry on
Just picking up the pieces
Of what lies behind those sorrowful eyes
You can walk away
Now and be strong
I know you can carry on
Walk away now and be gone
You don't have to want to carry
All the pain inside you
Cause the blood in me is the your blood every time I fall
Walk away now and be gone
Even when its killing you
You don't always have to be so strong for me

Of what lies behind those sorrowful eyes
You can walk away
Now and be strong
You don't have to carry on
Walk away now and be strong
You don't have to want to go on
Walk away now and be strong
You don't have to want to go on
Walk away
Walk away now
Walk away now
Oh
You don't have to go on
You don't have to be strong
Walk away now
You can walk away
Maybe lyrics - Darren Hayes
Maybe you're gone
You had to get outta here
It's easy to get lost in fear
But maybe now the weight has lifted
You're sailing through the air
Making your way
A travelling acrobat
You're putting on your bowler hat
Speeding through the atmosphere
Past planes and meteorites
Maybe you're gone
Maybe you're lost somewhere
Floating in outer space
A radio wave tuning into some
Secret place I've never been
Leaving your heart beating in fragile hands
And nobody understands
Maybe you're gone
Maybe you are finally coming home
Maybe the end was the beginning
The game is no fun when you're winning
The pool is empty unless you're swimming
And trying to keep afloat
Maybe you stayed just a little while
The party was over but you realised
That memory makes you immortalised
You end when you're beginning
Maybe you're gone
Maybe you're lost somewhere
Floating in outer space
A radio wave tuning into some
Secret place I've never been
Leaving your heart beating in fragile hands
And nobody understands
Maybe you're gone
Maybe you are finally coming home
All the lights shine above you
They become a part of you
All the earth seems so tiny in your hands
All the stars move inside you
All the pain that's behind you
All the secrets will blind you
Understand?
Maybe you had to get out of here
Maybe you lost your way down here
Maybe you've found a shinier star
A shinier star
Leaving your heart beating in fragile hands
And nobody understands
Maybe you're gone
Maybe you are finally coming home
Me, Myself And (I) lyrics - Darren Hayes
I'm kinda reeling
A deja-vu feeling
We've been together
In another life
Got me extending
That network's ending
The future echoes
With your memory
Now darling, I don't know what the future will bring
But I am willing to sing 'til I drop
Now baby, I don't know how it happened to be
But when we met it was like future shock
Tell me what to do, me myself and I
It's gonna take a time machine
To get it right
And it's so cruel, I wanna take you home
I'm gonna speed those hands of time right up
So that I don't leave here all alone. Woo hoo!
The death of the romance
Thought there was no chance
Then you appeared right in front of me
I got to thinking
Loneliness sinking
I felt the cloudiness come over me
Now darling, I don't know what the future will hold
But I'm not willing to do as I'm told
Now baby, I don't care how it happened to be
But I know that my future's right in front of me
Tell me what to do, me myself and I
It's gonna take a time machine
To get it right
And it's so cruel, I wanna take you home
I'm gonna speed those sands of time right up
So that I don't leave here all alone. Woo hoo!
Did you ever get the feeling that the universe is leaning?
It's accelerating, it will never stop
Did you ever wonder if the number one divide by zero
Is infinity and if that's the case then what?
If imaginary numbers are abstractions of the real thing
Then could someone make the clock of time stop?
If we were always meant to be together like forever
Than it must have been a future shock
I don't know what the future will bring
But I am willing to sing 'til I drop...
What to do, me myself and I
It's gonna take a time machine
To get it right
And it's so cruel, I wanna take you home
I'm gonna speed those sands of time
Right up so that I don't leave here all alone
I don't know what the future will bring
But I am willing to sing 'til I drop (Gonna speed those sands of time right up)
Oh darling, I don't know how it happened to be
But when we met it was like future shock
What to do, me myself and I
It's gonna take a time machine
To get it right
And it's so cruel, I wanna take you home
I'm gonna speed those sands of time
Right up so that I don't leave here all alone
A deja-vu feeling
We've been together
In another life
Got me extending
That network's ending
The future echoes

Now darling, I don't know what the future will bring

Lucky Town lyrics - Darren Hayes
This time I'll try to love again
I'll never lose you my friend
I'll be there till the end
Forever
This time I'll take the happy pill
Chew off more than I can spill
Play until you stay forever
But nobody said it would be easy now
We live in a lucky town
But the foundations are shaking
The bridges are breaking in two
But nobody said it would be easy now
I don't want to let you down
But my heart is alight, it's alright
Cuz it's burning for you
And it burns right through
This time I'll try to make believe
Wear my heart upon my sleeve
Just take it when you leave
It's better
This time I'll be the better man
I know the world understand
Cuz greatness is overrated
You'll see
But nobody said it would be easy now
We live in a lucky town
But the foundations are shaking
The bridges are breaking in two
And nobody said it would be easy now
I don't want to let you down
But my heart is alight, it's alright
Cuz it's burning for you
Well this time I'll try to love again
This time I'll never lose you my friend
I'll stay until the end
For ever and ever and ever more
But nobody said it would be easy now
We live in a lucky town
But the foundations are shaking
The bridges are breaking in two
But nobody said it would be easy now
I don't want to let you down
But my heart is alight, it's alright
Cuz it's burning for you
But nobody said it would be easy now
We live in a lucky town
But my heart is on fire
The bridges are burning for you
But nobody said it would be easy now
I don't want to let you down
But my heart is alight, it's alright
Cuz it's burning for you
But nobody said it would be easy now
We live in a lucky town
I'll never lose you my friend
I'll be there till the end
Forever
This time I'll take the happy pill
Chew off more than I can spill
Play until you stay forever
But nobody said it would be easy now
We live in a lucky town
But the foundations are shaking
The bridges are breaking in two
But nobody said it would be easy now
I don't want to let you down
But my heart is alight, it's alright
Cuz it's burning for you
And it burns right through
This time I'll try to make believe
Wear my heart upon my sleeve
Just take it when you leave
It's better
This time I'll be the better man
I know the world understand
Cuz greatness is overrated
You'll see
But nobody said it would be easy now
We live in a lucky town
But the foundations are shaking
The bridges are breaking in two
And nobody said it would be easy now
I don't want to let you down
But my heart is alight, it's alright
Cuz it's burning for you
Well this time I'll try to love again
This time I'll never lose you my friend
I'll stay until the end
For ever and ever and ever more
But nobody said it would be easy now
We live in a lucky town
But the foundations are shaking
The bridges are breaking in two
But nobody said it would be easy now
I don't want to let you down
But my heart is alight, it's alright
Cuz it's burning for you
But nobody said it would be easy now
We live in a lucky town
But my heart is on fire
The bridges are burning for you
But nobody said it would be easy now
I don't want to let you down
But my heart is alight, it's alright
Cuz it's burning for you
But nobody said it would be easy now
We live in a lucky town
I Just Want You To Love Me lyrics - Darren Hayes
I don't want someone telling me what to do
I don't wanna find out my temper grew wings
And flew to you
Don't want somebody telling me what's not right
But I just want you to love me
Oh I just want you to love me
I don't wanna have to lie bout what's inside
When there's always been a tiny part of me
I'm trying to hide
I don't wanna see your expression when I let you down
And I just want you to love me
Oh I just want you to love me
There's a haiku poem inside of my head
But the words are written in invisible ink
Now the world is changing
I can barely keep up
What was hot is over
What was down is not
Now Adam and Eve are trying to split up
And I can't take anymore
'Cause I just want you to love me
Oh I just want you to love me
Love me
Oh I just want you to love me
I don't wanna find out my temper grew wings
And flew to you
Don't want somebody telling me what's not right
But I just want you to love me
Oh I just want you to love me
I don't wanna have to lie bout what's inside
When there's always been a tiny part of me
I'm trying to hide
I don't wanna see your expression when I let you down
And I just want you to love me
Oh I just want you to love me
There's a haiku poem inside of my head
But the words are written in invisible ink
Now the world is changing
I can barely keep up
What was hot is over
What was down is not
Now Adam and Eve are trying to split up
And I can't take anymore
'Cause I just want you to love me
Oh I just want you to love me
Love me
Oh I just want you to love me
Setting Sun lyrics - Darren Hayes
Leave me alone
Come over here
I know it sounds funny
But I just cant stand another day on my own
Another bug in my ear sounds like noise to me
Living alone
A chill in the air
I don't hear from my brother
He is living in another continent far away
And it was his birthday today
But I think I missed it
Setting sun
I think I'm heading for a setting sun
I really need to find a way back home
Oh it's so urgent
There's an urgency
Leave me alone
Get out of here
Still chasing my daddy
Singing songs about my mammy
Got to let it go
Before I go down with the ship
There's my heartache sinking
Leave it alone
Put it to bed
Everybody changing memory
Set in the pages of an email or two
Yeah I read all 32
It was love prized out of you
Setting sun
I think I'm heading for a setting sun
I really need to find a way back home
Oh it's so urgent
There's an urgency behind the setting sun
I think I'm heading for a setting sun
I really need to find a way back home
Oh it's so urgent
There's an urgency
Do I make you hot?
Do I make you uncomfortable?
A stirring down in your soul for something more
Does it happen a lot?
Does the drudgery bring you down?
Is anyone still around?
I'm coming down
[x2]
Oh setting sun
I think I'm heading for a setting sun
I really need to find a way back home
Oh it's so urgent
There's an urgency
Come over here
I know it sounds funny
But I just cant stand another day on my own
Another bug in my ear sounds like noise to me
Living alone
A chill in the air
I don't hear from my brother
He is living in another continent far away
And it was his birthday today
But I think I missed it
Setting sun
I think I'm heading for a setting sun
I really need to find a way back home
Oh it's so urgent
There's an urgency
Leave me alone
Get out of here
Still chasing my daddy
Singing songs about my mammy
Got to let it go
Before I go down with the ship
There's my heartache sinking
Leave it alone
Put it to bed
Everybody changing memory
Set in the pages of an email or two
Yeah I read all 32
It was love prized out of you
Setting sun
I think I'm heading for a setting sun
I really need to find a way back home
Oh it's so urgent
There's an urgency behind the setting sun
I think I'm heading for a setting sun
I really need to find a way back home
Oh it's so urgent
There's an urgency
Do I make you hot?
Do I make you uncomfortable?
A stirring down in your soul for something more
Does it happen a lot?
Does the drudgery bring you down?
Is anyone still around?

Oh setting sun
I think I'm heading for a setting sun
I really need to find a way back home
Oh it's so urgent
There's an urgency
A Hundred Challenging Things A Boy Can Do lyrics - Darren Hayes
It was a coal town. He spent his whole life in a hole in
the ground smashing pieces of earth.
He never really saw the sky.
It was a hard life. But little black rocks make the televisions
work and put food on the table.
Until the unions cast him aside.
Now there's a hundred challenging things a boy can do.
And you've waved goodbye and held more tears in
than anyone ever should.
And all my sorrows pale to insignificance.
That's why I love you.
She was in a strange land. She taught herself to read
from doing crosswords and hiding her accent.
She cast her dreams aside.
She had a spark in her eye.
She never saw her son on his wedding day.
Or our cherry blossoms falling down from the sky
Now there's a hundred challening things a boy can do.
And you've waved goodbye and held more tears in
than anyone ever should.
And all my sorrows pale to insignificance.
That's why I love you.
No coal mines.
No not a trace.
Now shopping malls take their place.
No picket lines.
The sacrifice.
Dreams overrun.
Hopes for a future for her son in Ollerton.
Now there's a hundred challenging things a boy can do.
And you've waved goodbye and held more tears in
than anyone ever should.
And all my sorrows pale to insignificance.
That's why she loves you.
A hundred challenging things a boy can do.
Wave goodbye.
Wave goodbye
A hundred challenging
Say goodbye to you.
the ground smashing pieces of earth.
He never really saw the sky.
It was a hard life. But little black rocks make the televisions
work and put food on the table.
Until the unions cast him aside.
Now there's a hundred challenging things a boy can do.
And you've waved goodbye and held more tears in
than anyone ever should.
And all my sorrows pale to insignificance.
That's why I love you.
She was in a strange land. She taught herself to read
from doing crosswords and hiding her accent.
She cast her dreams aside.
She had a spark in her eye.
She never saw her son on his wedding day.
Or our cherry blossoms falling down from the sky
Now there's a hundred challening things a boy can do.
And you've waved goodbye and held more tears in
than anyone ever should.
And all my sorrows pale to insignificance.
That's why I love you.
No coal mines.
No not a trace.
Now shopping malls take their place.
No picket lines.
The sacrifice.
Dreams overrun.
Hopes for a future for her son in Ollerton.
Now there's a hundred challenging things a boy can do.
And you've waved goodbye and held more tears in
than anyone ever should.
And all my sorrows pale to insignificance.
That's why she loves you.
A hundred challenging things a boy can do.
Wave goodbye.
Wave goodbye
A hundred challenging
Say goodbye to you.
Words lyrics - Darren Hayes
Gimme a taste of what's to come
Give me a medicine
Teach me a lesson, maybe I deserve to know
Cut me down to size and paralyze me
With the contents of your pretty little head
Gimme somewhere else to go
Give me one thing
Tell me something I don't really need to know
I am so afraid of breaking what we made
It is delicate and lovely
But it's a weight above me
And your words are like weapons
But you'll keep them inside
They cut like a knife
And you keep it together
Those feelings inside
There's nowhere to hide but away from me
And I just wanna listen to your words
I'd like to step into your world
Show me a secret
I promise to keep it safe and sheltered from the storm
I would cross the great divide that keeps me swimming
Treading water from your shore
Now I wanna coax you from your hell
Into an alley, the hidden valley
Where the truth can surely spill
I wanna take the weight that drags you to the ground
Spare this treasure that I found
But your words are like weapons
But you'll keep them inside
They cut like a knife
And you keep it together
Those feelings inside
There's nowhere to hide but away from me
And I just wanna listen...
There's a lock, someone's stolen the key
They took it away from me
Somewhere that noone can read ya
I see a bible
I see a bible in your eyes
All those codes and hidden meanings
Full of metaphor
and something for the faithless in me
But your words are like weapons
But you'll keep them inside
They cut like a knife
And you keep it together
Those feelings inside
There's nowhere to hide
And your words are like weapons
But you'll keep them inside
They cut like a knife
And you keep it together
Those feelings inside
There's nowhere to hide but away from me
And I just wanna listen to your words
Give me a medicine
Teach me a lesson, maybe I deserve to know
Cut me down to size and paralyze me
With the contents of your pretty little head
Gimme somewhere else to go
Give me one thing
Tell me something I don't really need to know
I am so afraid of breaking what we made
It is delicate and lovely
But it's a weight above me
And your words are like weapons
But you'll keep them inside
They cut like a knife
And you keep it together
Those feelings inside
There's nowhere to hide but away from me
And I just wanna listen to your words
I'd like to step into your world
Show me a secret
I promise to keep it safe and sheltered from the storm
I would cross the great divide that keeps me swimming
Treading water from your shore
Now I wanna coax you from your hell
Into an alley, the hidden valley
Where the truth can surely spill
I wanna take the weight that drags you to the ground
Spare this treasure that I found
But your words are like weapons
But you'll keep them inside
They cut like a knife
And you keep it together
Those feelings inside
There's nowhere to hide but away from me
And I just wanna listen...
There's a lock, someone's stolen the key
They took it away from me
Somewhere that noone can read ya
I see a bible
I see a bible in your eyes
All those codes and hidden meanings
Full of metaphor
and something for the faithless in me
But your words are like weapons
But you'll keep them inside
They cut like a knife
And you keep it together
Those feelings inside
There's nowhere to hide
And your words are like weapons
But you'll keep them inside
They cut like a knife
And you keep it together
Those feelings inside
There's nowhere to hide but away from me
And I just wanna listen to your words
The Tuning Of Violins lyrics - Darren Hayes
Daylight breaks, and the black birds call-
And the market stalls are all filling up, spilling over the streets.
High above, over Notting Hill-
I am floating still, in a wooden chair, with our restless dog.
Been away so long, I almost forgot how time and space
Cannot replace this feeling of flying over things.
Now you're falling awake, your sleepy face begins to register
That I'm coming home- yeah, I'm coming home to you.
[Chorus:]
On a Sunday only we know, where the sunlight and the wind blows.
Over bluebells, over Blackheath.
Calling your name, I will float through your window.
Major third, or a minor seventh-
I'm a violin tuned a little sharp, tuned a little below.
Coming around the bend, the hallway ends.
The chair it dips, and then it bends-
And it has wings for legs.
Now you're deep in a dream, the sheets and pillowcases seem to overtake your head.
I'm at the foot of our bed.
[Chorus x2]
Break through the silence, the gulf that's between us.
Take all the heartache and bullshit that builds up.
And we will unravel, unravel the moments.
Yeah we will unravel, unravel the moments.
Oh...
On a Sunday only we know, where the sunlight and the wind blows.
Over bluebells, over Blackheath.
Calling your name, I will come to your window.
On a Sunday only we know, where the sunlight and the wind blows.
On a Sunday only we know,
I'll be calling your name as I float through your window.
And the market stalls are all filling up, spilling over the streets.
High above, over Notting Hill-
I am floating still, in a wooden chair, with our restless dog.
Been away so long, I almost forgot how time and space
Cannot replace this feeling of flying over things.
Now you're falling awake, your sleepy face begins to register
That I'm coming home- yeah, I'm coming home to you.
[Chorus:]
On a Sunday only we know, where the sunlight and the wind blows.
Over bluebells, over Blackheath.
Calling your name, I will float through your window.
Major third, or a minor seventh-
I'm a violin tuned a little sharp, tuned a little below.
Coming around the bend, the hallway ends.
The chair it dips, and then it bends-
And it has wings for legs.
Now you're deep in a dream, the sheets and pillowcases seem to overtake your head.
I'm at the foot of our bed.
[Chorus x2]
Break through the silence, the gulf that's between us.
Take all the heartache and bullshit that builds up.
And we will unravel, unravel the moments.
Yeah we will unravel, unravel the moments.
Oh...
On a Sunday only we know, where the sunlight and the wind blows.
Over bluebells, over Blackheath.
Calling your name, I will come to your window.
On a Sunday only we know, where the sunlight and the wind blows.
On a Sunday only we know,
I'll be calling your name as I float through your window.
Darkness lyrics - Darren Hayes
Been spending so much time underground
I guess my eyes adjusted
To the lack of light
I got
Covered in darkness
Covered in darkness
I have been waiting
Always waiting for something new
Happiness has always ended
In the blink of an eye
There was no one attending
No one attending
It doesn't really matter where it all began
All I know
I got covered in darkness
Covered in darkness
Ever wonder why I never really truly connect
Although my eyes are open
I can hold your gaze
But I am never connected
Never connected
I am famous for my generosity
They say I am the kindest
But it is easier to
Give than receive love
Give than receive love
It doesn't really matter where it all began
All I know
I was covered in darkness
Covered in darkness
Turning pages over
Run away to nowhere
And it's hard to take control
When your enemy's old and afraid of you
You'll discover that the monster you were running from
Is the monster in you
Better to hold on to love
Better to hold on to love
Change will come
It doesn't really matter where it all began
All I know
I was covered in darkness
Covered in darkness
It doesn't really matter where it all began
Cuz all I know
I was lost
I was lost
No, no
It doesn't really matter where it all began no no
All I know
I was lost
I feel lost
Lost
No...
I guess my eyes adjusted
To the lack of light
I got
Covered in darkness
Covered in darkness
I have been waiting
Always waiting for something new
Happiness has always ended
In the blink of an eye
There was no one attending
No one attending
It doesn't really matter where it all began
All I know
I got covered in darkness
Covered in darkness
Ever wonder why I never really truly connect
Although my eyes are open
I can hold your gaze
But I am never connected
Never connected
I am famous for my generosity
They say I am the kindest
But it is easier to
Give than receive love
Give than receive love
It doesn't really matter where it all began
All I know
I was covered in darkness
Covered in darkness
Turning pages over
Run away to nowhere
And it's hard to take control
When your enemy's old and afraid of you
You'll discover that the monster you were running from
Is the monster in you
Better to hold on to love
Better to hold on to love
Change will come
It doesn't really matter where it all began
All I know
I was covered in darkness
Covered in darkness
It doesn't really matter where it all began
Cuz all I know
I was lost
I was lost
No, no
It doesn't really matter where it all began no no
All I know
I was lost
I feel lost
Lost
No...
I Like The Way lyrics - Darren Hayes
Somewhere inside my evolution
Karmically I seek retribution
Looking for love in physical beauty
Desire is the drug of the bourgeoisie
And now I try to intellectualize
Like a glimmer of good in a bad man's eyes
I am consumed by the flesh haunting me
I know temptation taunts the empty
So pour yourself over me
Until there's nothing left to see, yeah yeah
Because I like the way you move in the dark
I like the tension, the tension and the spark
The decadence of giving into desire
Creates such entropy within
Looking for love in spiritual faces
Blind to the art of fabrication
I'm like a baby sucking mama's milk
Want to drink my fill and then some
Leave me alone
I always thought I was better than this
But temptation tempts the temptee
Pour yourself over me
Until there's nothing left to see, yeah yeah
Oh, because I like the way you move in the dark
And I like the tension, the tension and the spark, oh
Because I like the way you move in the dark, oh
You know I like the tension, the tension and, the tension and the spark, oh
This physicality
Shifting me chemically
Such power over me
It's just desire
I know it's treachery (shifting me chemically)
I know it's just skin deep (such power over me)
I know I should resist
I'm just too tired
Too tired
There's just one thing missing
One thing missing here is
Love
I like the way you move in the dark
I like the tension, the tension and the spark (so pour yourself over me)
You know, I like the way you move in the dark (so pour yourself over me)
You know, I like the tension, the tension and, the tension and the spark
So pour yourself over me
(There's just one thing missing)
(One thing missing)
Until there's nothing left to see
(There's just one thing missing)
(The tension and the spark)
(One thing missing)
(So pour yourself over me)
There's just one thing missing
One thing missing
(So pour yourself over me)
(I like the tension, the tension and the spark)
(There's just one thing missing)
One thing missing here is...
Love
Karmically I seek retribution
Looking for love in physical beauty
Desire is the drug of the bourgeoisie
And now I try to intellectualize
Like a glimmer of good in a bad man's eyes
I am consumed by the flesh haunting me
I know temptation taunts the empty
So pour yourself over me

Light lyrics - Darren Hayes
The light, it flickers
Your light, travelling down so deep
Illumination
I have been cold, I have been blind
You have come to change my mind
I can put my faith in you
The light, it blisters
Your light, coming down so bright
Transformation
Turn it up, give me some room to grow
Turn it up, give me that sense to know
I have been cold, I have been blind
You were sent to change my mind
I can put my faith in you
For something ordinary
It's so extraordinary
I trust, I put my faith in you
In you
In you, in you
In you, in you
The light, it glitters
Your light, when I stand this close
It's almost blinding
Turn it up, give me some room to grow
Turn it up, give me the sense to know
I have been changed, I have become
I have flamed under the sun
I'm the reflection of you
For something ordinary
It's so extraordinary
I trust, I put my faith in you
In you
In you, in you
In you, in you
In you, you, you
For something ordinary
It's so extraordinary
I just, I put my faith in you
In you
In you, in you
In you, you, you
It flickers
It blisters
It glitters
In you, in you
In you, you, you
You are
Your light, travelling down so deep
Illumination
I have been cold, I have been blind
You have come to change my mind
I can put my faith in you
The light, it blisters
Your light, coming down so bright
Transformation
Turn it up, give me some room to grow
Turn it up, give me that sense to know
I have been cold, I have been blind
You were sent to change my mind
I can put my faith in you
For something ordinary
It's so extraordinary
I trust, I put my faith in you
In you
In you, in you
In you, in you
The light, it glitters
Your light, when I stand this close
It's almost blinding
Turn it up, give me some room to grow
Turn it up, give me the sense to know

Popular lyrics - Darren Hayes
I've gotta plan to make it rich, and famous.
Lucky for me for you it's a bitch you ain't in.
My plans are slowly changin'
Fame is so contagious.
I'm willin' to sleep my way to the top,
I wanna be popular.
I don't wanna keep my feet on the ground,
I wanna be popular.
I must confess I've been a very bad boy,
Been sleeping around, talk of the town.
My name is. . .
Hollywood will beckon.
Everyone will listen.
Play my video, hear me on the radio.
Dancing to the disco, no-one ever says no.
I'm willin' to sleep my way to the top,
I wanna be popular.
I don't wanna keep my feet on the ground,
I wanna be popular.
I'm willin' to sleep my way to the top,

Dublin Sky lyrics - Darren Hayes
I've been down a lonely street tonight
And I don't know what's wrong with me
I don't know what's wrong with me
The clouds cover up the Dublin sky
I don't know what's left of me
I don't know what's right with me
And I've tried to keep my distance
And I've sung Amazing Grace
I've tarnished all our memories
But there'll always be a trace of you
Of you
I remember laughing on that river's edge
Trying to get you to jump with me
Trying to get you to fall for me
And your trembling heart it beat so fast
Holdings hands you promised me
Holding hands we counted to three
And I felt your slipping fingers
And I saw you change your mind
If I hadn't dragged you in with me
You would have let me dive without you
Without you
They sent you all the way from Hollywood
And maybe that Dublin sky was changing you
It put diamonds in your eyes
I always thought we were going to make it through
But I wanted to hear it first from you
How many days am I going to regret you?
How many nights till I forget you?
Have I been wasting all those years?
Held down by these tears?
How many dreams have I left deserted?
How many hopes have been diverted?
Have I been buried in the dirt?
Held down by this hurt?
How many loads did I let you hijack?
How many ways can I stand here in playback?
How did I end up lying here
Crying underneath the Dublin sky?
How many days am I going to regret you?
How many nights till I forget you?
Have I been wasting all these years?
Drowning in my tears?
How many nights am I going to regret you?
How many days till I forget you?
Have I been wasting all these years?
Drowning in my tears?
And I don't know what's wrong with me
I don't know what's wrong with me
The clouds cover up the Dublin sky
I don't know what's left of me
I don't know what's right with me
And I've tried to keep my distance
And I've sung Amazing Grace
I've tarnished all our memories
But there'll always be a trace of you
Of you
I remember laughing on that river's edge
Trying to get you to jump with me
Trying to get you to fall for me
And your trembling heart it beat so fast
Holdings hands you promised me
Holding hands we counted to three
And I felt your slipping fingers
And I saw you change your mind
If I hadn't dragged you in with me
You would have let me dive without you
Without you
They sent you all the way from Hollywood
And maybe that Dublin sky was changing you
It put diamonds in your eyes
I always thought we were going to make it through
But I wanted to hear it first from you
How many days am I going to regret you?
How many nights till I forget you?
Have I been wasting all those years?
Held down by these tears?
How many dreams have I left deserted?
How many hopes have been diverted?
Have I been buried in the dirt?
Held down by this hurt?
How many loads did I let you hijack?
How many ways can I stand here in playback?
How did I end up lying here
Crying underneath the Dublin sky?
How many days am I going to regret you?
How many nights till I forget you?
Have I been wasting all these years?
Drowning in my tears?
How many nights am I going to regret you?
How many days till I forget you?
Have I been wasting all these years?
Drowning in my tears?
Hero lyrics - Darren Hayes
Outside confidence is king
I am all that you're projecting
Inside feel the rising tide
And the revolutions deafening
I was trying to hide my opposing side
Trying to reconcile my Jekyll and Hyde
Ladies and gentlemen listen up please
I don't want to be your hero
(No, I am not open parts of me are broken)
Do yourself a favor
Save yourself
Don't pick me find someone else
(Why'd you want to bother find yourself another)
Sometimes you put all of your desires in an object of affection
But in time because you idolise there is only disappointment
I was flying so high in your perfect sky
But I needed to fall cannot have it all
Ladies and gentlemen listen up please
I don't want to be your hero
(No, I am not open parts of me are broken)
Do yourself a favor
Save yourself
Don't pick me find someone else
(Why'd you want to bother find yourself another)
Ladies and gentlemen listen up please
I don't want to be your hero
(No, I am not open parts of me are broken)
Do yourself a favor
Save yourself
Don't pick me for someone else
(Why'd you want to bother find yourself another)
Don't need to compromise
I don't need to occupy the floor
There's a danger in boxing in my sin
And all that I am..
It's too much pressure
I'll only let you down again
(No, I am not open parts of me are broken)
It's too much pressure
I'll only let you down again
(Why'd you want to bother find yourself another)
Ladies and gentlemen listen up please
I don't want to be your hero
(No, I am not open parts of me are broken)
It's too much pressure
I'll only let you down again
(No, I am not open parts of me are broken)
Ladies and gentlemen listen up please
I don't want to be your hero
(No, I am not open parts of me are broken)
I am all that you're projecting

I don't want to be your hero
(No, I am not open parts of me are broken)
Do yourself a favor
Save yourself
Don't pick me find someone else
(Why'd you want to bother find yourself another)
Sometimes you put all of your desires in an object of affection
But in time because you idolise there is only disappointment
I was flying so high in your perfect sky
But I needed to fall cannot have it all
Ladies and gentlemen listen up please

Unlovable lyrics - Darren Hayes
Are my lips unkissable?
Are my eyes unlookable?
Is my skin untouchable?
Am I unlovable?
Cynical, jaded, faithless, disappointed, disillusioned, used
If I could take back all my sweat, my tears, my sex, my joy I would
My time, my love, my effort, passion, dedication
In case of mistaken identity I gave these things to you
If I sound angry, bitter, sad, infatuated, it's the truth
Denial, anger, bargaining, depression, just a few
Stages of acceptance that it's really over
It's just so complicated and I'm stupid for believing in you
You make me feel like my father never loved me
You make me feel like the act of love is empty
Am I so unlovable?
Is my skin untouchable?
Do I remind you of a part of you that you don't like?
I had your back, I held you up, I told you you were good enough
It was not reciprocated, you kept affection and yourself apart
You fed your love to me like crumbs to pigeons in the park
Sometimes I think you're satisfied to see me begging like a dog
I wasn't armoured, you were king, I gave my everything
Because sometimes you showed me just a hint of you and then
For just a moment I romanticised the notion
I can take away the torment, I can love you like they never did
You make me feel like my father never loved me (you never loved me)
You make me feel like the act of love is empty (I felt so empty)
Am I so unlovable?
Is my skin untouchable?
Do I remind you of a part of you that you don't like?
You make me feel like my mother, she abandoned me (you abandoned me)
You make me feel like the act of love is empty (I felt so empty)
Am I so unlovable?
Is my heart unbreakable?
Do I remind you of a part of you that you despise?
Are my lips unkissable?
Are my eyes unlookable?
Is my sex undoable?
Am I unlovable?
Are my words unlistenable?
Are my hands untouchable?
Am I undesirable?
Am I unlovable?
You make me feel like my father never loved me
You make me feel like the act of love is empty
Am I so unlovable?
Is my skin untouchable?
Do I remind you of a part of you that you don't like?
You make me feel like my father never loved me (you never loved me)
You make me feel like the act of love is empty (I felt so empty)
Am I so unlovable?
Is my skin untouchable?
Do I remind you of a part of you that you don't like?
You make me feel like my mother, she abandoned me (you abandoned me)
You make me feel like the act of love is empty (I felt so empty)
Am I so unlovable?

Do I remind you of a part of you that you despise?
You make me feel like my father never loved me (you never loved me)

Void lyrics - Darren Hayes
I've seen so many faces
These hands have lied before
I've kissed so many lips it's blocked my mind
I've whispered bullshit, nothings
I've cried alone in night
I thought I'd found the one a million times
But doesn't anyone fill the void?
Doesn't anyone kill the joy?
Doesn't anyone take the place of you in my heart?
And doesn't anyone fill the void?
Doesn't anyone kill the joy?
Doesn't anyone take the place of you?
I let a stranger love me
I gave away my pride
I bit my lips, so I could block my mind
I've called your name to others
Just like a spinal chord
Severed and broken but the spark still tries
And doesn't anyone fill the void?
Doesn't anyone kill the joy?
Doesn't anyone take the place of you in my heart?
Doesn't anyone fill the void?
Doesn't anyone kill the noise?
Doesn't anyone take the place of you?
They don't know you like I do
They don't see the good inside you
They don't lie with you in bed and join you when you're dreaming
They don't see your softer side
Who'll be there to turn your light on?
Who will try to wash away the stain that love has left us?
Doesn't anyone fill the void?
Doesn't anyone kill the joy?
Doesn't anyone kill the place of you in my heart?
Doesn't anyone bring the noise?
Doesn't anyone kill the joy?
Doesn't anyone take the place of you?
These hands have lied before
I've kissed so many lips it's blocked my mind
I've whispered bullshit, nothings
I've cried alone in night
I thought I'd found the one a million times
But doesn't anyone fill the void?
Doesn't anyone kill the joy?
Doesn't anyone take the place of you in my heart?
And doesn't anyone fill the void?
Doesn't anyone kill the joy?
Doesn't anyone take the place of you?
I let a stranger love me
I gave away my pride
I bit my lips, so I could block my mind
I've called your name to others
Just like a spinal chord
Severed and broken but the spark still tries
And doesn't anyone fill the void?
Doesn't anyone kill the joy?
Doesn't anyone take the place of you in my heart?
Doesn't anyone fill the void?
Doesn't anyone kill the noise?
Doesn't anyone take the place of you?
They don't know you like I do
They don't see the good inside you
They don't lie with you in bed and join you when you're dreaming
They don't see your softer side
Who'll be there to turn your light on?
Who will try to wash away the stain that love has left us?
Doesn't anyone fill the void?
Doesn't anyone kill the joy?
Doesn't anyone kill the place of you in my heart?
Doesn't anyone bring the noise?
Doesn't anyone kill the joy?
Doesn't anyone take the place of you?
I Forgive You lyrics - Darren Hayes
(Shut up)
For all the anguish,
And degradation
For every time I needed truth
And you were faithless
But disappointment, self-deprecation
But living a lie for fantasize and you could save me
I need my cross like a blanket
And misery is comfort
I can hardly stand to blame my self-fulfilling prophecy on you
And in the end I decided
I guess I felt I deserved it
I should kiss your dirty lips for bringing me my clarity
And how did you just make me see?
How your lies have buried me
But I forgive you
Lord I must forgive you
So I
I feel so high
Just let it go we would
I forgive you
Lord I must forgive you
So I
(Shut up)
For all the torment
Loss of independence
For disrespect, carelessness with my emotions
For all the screams I swallow
How a soul is hollow
For giving into temptation
For making me feel like a cheap replacement
And how did you just make me see
How your lies have buried me
But I forgive you
Lord I must forgive you
Cos I
I feel so high
Just let it go we would
I forgive you
Lord I must forgive you
Cos I
All the lies that I believed
And all the guilt you make me feel
Cos I forgive you
Lord I must forgive you
Cos I
Ohh I feel so good just letting go
You know I feel good now you're gone
Getting stronger, letting go
Getting stronger, I'm moving on
Getting stronger, I'm letting go
Getting stronger, I'm getting stronger
No
This time
I forgive you
Lord I
And how the truth does make me see
And how your lies have buried me
I forgive you
Lord I
I must forgive you
Lord I
All the lies that I believed
And all the guilt you make me feel
I forgive you
Cos I forgive you
Lord I must forgive you
Cos I
And how the truth does make me see
How your lies have buried me
I forgive you
Cos I forgive you
Lord I
I must forgive you
(This time)
All the lies that I believed
Guilt you make me feel
This time
I must forgive you
I feel so high
I feel so high
Cos it feels so good just letting go
You know I feel good now you go
For all the anguish,
And degradation
For every time I needed truth
And you were faithless
But disappointment, self-deprecation
But living a lie for fantasize and you could save me

I can hardly stand to blame my self-fulfilling prophecy on you

Feel lyrics - Darren Hayes
You teach me how to feel
It feels all right
There's nothing left to fear
Finding myself
The further I go
Towards you
You teach me how to love
Parts of myself
I hated for so long
Loving myself
Through loving you
I no longer live like a man in the dark
Hiding all the pieces of my broken heart
Way up high I'm holding on
Way up high I'm holding on to you
You teach me to forgive
It feels all right
Compassion for your pain
Compassion for mine
The circle divides
I no longer live like a man in the dark
Holding all the pieces of my broken heart
Way up high I'm holding on
Way up high I'm holding on to you
Way up high I'm moving on
Way up high I'm moving on to you
It feels all right
There's nothing left to fear
Finding myself
The further I go
Towards you
You teach me how to love
Parts of myself
I hated for so long
Loving myself
Through loving you
I no longer live like a man in the dark
Hiding all the pieces of my broken heart
Way up high I'm holding on
Way up high I'm holding on to you
You teach me to forgive
It feels all right
Compassion for your pain
Compassion for mine
The circle divides
I no longer live like a man in the dark
Holding all the pieces of my broken heart
Way up high I'm holding on
Way up high I'm holding on to you
Way up high I'm moving on
Way up high I'm moving on to you
Love And Attraction lyrics - Darren Hayes
I do not want anyone, anyone who really wants me,
Every one that I desire, wants to be with someone else. . .
I find it so amusing.
Isn't that the way it goes?
I'm a blip on someones radar
They don't even catch my eye
I want what I haven't got, even if it kills me trying.
I want her, she wants him, he wants me, I give in.
I want her, I want him, I don't want anything.
I started questioning, the rules of coupling.
This strip is mobius, it's never ending
Love and attraction.
It's like sex and passion.
It's two ends of a spectrum.
Are you a friend or a lover?
Now pick one or the other.
It's not easy to find, anyone who captivates me,
Anyone deserving time.
Must have somehow passed me by
Looking in the wrong direction.
She wants him, he wants me, I don't want anybody,
And everyone who wants me-
It's so amusing.
Love and attraction.
It's like sex and passion.
It's two ends of a spectrum.
Are you a friend or lover?
Now pick one or the other.
Everybody wants someone to hold.
Everybody wants to choose a role.
Ain't nobody willing to break the mold.
No hint of bravery.
Everybody is chasin' some ideal.
None of it obtainable, none of it real.
Everything falls between the cracks of
Love and attraction.
Love and attraction.
It's like sex and passion.
It's two ends of a spectrum.
Are you a friend or lover?
Now pick one or the other.
Love and attraction
It's like joy and sadness
It's like peace and conflict
You can chase them forever
Are they ever together?
Love and attraction
Love and attraction
Love and attraction
You can chase them forever
Are they ever together?
Everybody wants someone to hold.
Everybody wants to choose a role.
Ain't nobody willing to break the mold.
No hint of bravery.
Everybody is chasin' some ideal.
None of it obtainable, none of it real.
Everything falls between the cracks of
Love and attraction.

You can chase them forever
