Let's Try Being In Love lyrics - Darren Hayes

Being in love
Let's try being in love
Let's try being in love
Being in love

I'm in love
With the idea of being in love
I'm in love
And there's no way to hide the deed
It's in the air
Bergamot
And humidity
I've seen it before
In your eyes
Adolescent dreams

So let's try being in love
Let's try being in love
Let's try being in love
With the idea of being in love

Let's try being in love
Let's try being in love
Let's try being in love
Oh

I'm in love
With the idea of being in love
I feel whole
With the idea of being in love
I've seen it before
In your eyes
Only God will know
So let's try being in love
Oh

I'm in love
With the idea of being in love
I absolve
All my responsibilities
If I take your hand
In my mouth
Will I taste the sea?
Eros evolves
By the pool
Skin inviting me

So let's try being in love
Let's try being in love
Let's try being in love
With the idea of being in love

Let's try being in love
Let's try being in love
Let's try being in love
Oh

I'm in love
With the idea of being in love
I feel whole
With the idea of being in love
I've been there before
In your eyes
Only God will know
So let's try being in love
Oh

Am I by your side?
Am I on my own?
Do I dare to speak?
Will I die alone?
Am I five decades?
Am I twenty-four?
Laden with desire
Never felt before
Teenage passion
Middle-aged despair
All the pregnant thoughts
Linger in the air
Am I by your side?
Am I on my own?
Do I dare to speak?
Will I die alone?

Let's try being in love
Let's try being in love
Let's try being in love
Let's try being in love
Let's try being in love
Let's try being in love
Let's try being in love
Let's try being in love
Let's try being in love
Let's try being in love
Let's try being in love
Let's try being in love
Let's try being in love
Let's try being in love
Let's...

Do You Remember? lyrics - Darren Hayes

Do you?

Do you remember the love?
Do you remember we were in love?
Do you remember the club?
Do you remember we were in love?

Boy you're right in front of me
I need you to dance with me
Ohh you're right in front of me
I'm gonna need your hands on me

Do you?

Do you you remember the love?
Do you remember we were in love?
Do you remember the sound?
Listening to 'Ray of Light' and we were in love

Boy you're right in front of me
I can taste my destiny
Ooh let your lips meet mine
I think you can handle me

1990's no cell phones
If you wanted to meet someone you had to leave your home
We can dance or we could ...
I can see from bedroom eyes that you don't like to talk
Back to yours or my hotel
Grab your coat, hail a taxi, snow's just started to fall
I could be a star, I could be a total unknown
Got to see you naked I just got to get you all alone

Boy you're right in front of me
I need you to dance with me
Ooh you're right in front of me
I'm gonna need your hands on me

Boy you're right in front of me
I can taste my destiny
Ooh let your lips meet mine
I think you can handle me

Oh yeah ooh
Boy you're right in front of me
I want you to dance with me
Boy ooh right in front of me
Hoo ooh boy you're right in front of me
I wanted you to dance

A Little Death lyrics - Darren Hayes

Hey boy can I get a little sympathy?
Because the future of you and I died a little death today
You barely noticed my heart stopped when you walked away
I imagined us driving in my new car marvelling at stars in the observatory
Hey boy can we pretend it was just a dream
That I died every time I saw you online and you spoke to me
You put me in your top five
That all ended tonight
I saw visions of parked cars and lights of Griffith Park vanishing

It was ten long years
You didn't even notice
And if you did you'd let it go
It was ten long years
I kept my feelings locked inside
Did I ever cross your mind?

The first and last time I am ever gonna drive you home
Because the future of you and I died a little death tonight
I'm gonna do myself a favor, take mixed signals for 'no'
It was fun to indulge and pretend and descend but it's a heavy blow

It was ten long years
You didn't even notice
And if you did you'd let it go
It was ten long years
I kept my feelings locked inside
Did I ever cross your mind?

As time goes by the feelings fade
But they never really went away
Somewhere in another universe
Maybe you and I are on that hill
Scanning skies with telescopes
LA lights laid out below us
Future lives stretched out before us
A little death you didn't notice

It was ten long years
You didn't even notice
And if you did you hid it well
Ten long years
I kept my feelings locked inside
Did I ever cross your mind?
Does nobody ever cross your mind?
Did I cross your mind?
Does nobody ever cross your mind?
Nobody ever cross your mind?

Poison Blood lyrics - Darren Hayes

Robin had it
My Mother has it
My Grandma had it
I guess I got it too
And once you've got it
It drains emotions
It sinks your feelings and all the life rafts too

Ooh I got to have you
But I don't wanna pass on to you my poison blood
Poison Blood
Ooh I got to have you
But poison blood poisons all the love
Ooh I won't let it get you, no

Lincoln had it
My Brother has it
My Nephew had it
I guess I got it too
And once you've got it
It fills an ocean with fear and loathing and devastation too
Ooh I got to have you
But I don't wanna pass on to you my poison blood
Poison blood
Oooh I got to have you but poison blood poisons all the love
Ooh I won't let it get you, boy

And it's not that I don't wanna live
It's the pain that I wish I could kill
All the times that I wanted to die
I made a choice I was gonna survive
It's a blessing a gift and a curse
Every day's a decision to stay with my poison blood

Poison blood
Ooh I got to have you
But poison blood poisons all the love
Ooh I won't let it get you, no

Hey Matt lyrics - Darren Hayes

Hey Matt
I got something I wanna tell you
If you're there pick up
It's no big deal I'm just so lonely
You see I had a dream last night my entire life washed up
There was a terrible flood, the Ventura Freeway was covered in my stuff

Hey Matt
The water carried all my secrets
Sifting through the muck I saw my dirty little grievances
And the memories I killed
All the shameful feelings spilled
Lay bare on the asphalt
Broken parts I thought I'd drowned real good

One time as a way to survive I decided to be king
But the crown dug into my skin and that gold turned out to be tin
Poison seeping into my brain until the only thing to remain
Is the last bit of innocence
I hope I can save it
I hope I can save it

One time as a way to survive I decided to be king
But the crown dug into my skin and that gold turned out to be tin

Hey Matt
You know the monsters in the ocean?
It turns out they're real
Guess they were underneath the surface
Tailing me like a shark getting dizzy and drunk on my blood
And all this time they were deep beneath the wave that used to carry me on high

Hey Matt
I'm stranded on a traffic island
Six car pile up and flashing lights so many sirens
I don't recognize my skin or the bones that creak within
I am tired all the time
A sexless, frail, scared and weak little man

One time as a way to survive I decided to be king
But the crown dug into my skin and that gold turned out to be tin
Poison seeping into my brain until the only thing to remain
Is the last bit of innocence
I hope I can save it
I hope I can save it

One time as a way to survive I decided to be king
But the crown dug into my skin and that gold turned out to be tin

Hey Matt
I'm somewhere on the 101 South
I guess I broke down
There's bits of plastic and glass all around
And it cuts into my feet
And this mud is sickeningly sweet
But what the flood dredged up doesn't seem so bad under tungsten lights

Hey Matt
I think I'm gonna cut my losses
Cause when I look at this stuff there's nothing left I wanna process
There's some hurt and revenge I could take
And my Daddy issues still ache
But they're just so heavy I think I'll leave them here for someone else to claim
To claim
To claim

One time as a way to survive I decided to be king
But the crown dug into my skin and that gold turned out to be tin
Poison seeping into my brain until the only thing to remain
Is the last bit of innocence
I hope I can save it
I hope I can save it

One time as a way to survive I decided to be king
But the crown dug into my skin and that gold turned out to be tin

Hey Matthew
I think I should tell you
I spend my life hiding behind a tree complaining
Nobody wants to play with me
A selfish kind of irony
I'm so fucking lonely
But I won't let you in

If you're out there rescue me
If you're out there come and see me
It's not how it's meant to be
If you're out there come and rescue me
It's the ending of all of me
If you're out there come and rescue me
If you're out there come and see me
This is not how it's supposed to be

Homosexual (Act One) lyrics - Darren Hayes

It's not a blessing and it's not a curse
A crystal technicolor neon tour de force
It's not a feeling a feeling you can describe
A secret lexicon of love behind your eyes
All my life I've been searching for that nectar deep in my bones
A sweet molasses toothache of desire
It's not correctable
It's homosexual
All my life
Oh

I can not fool you
I can't evade
I'm a book and you are reading every page
A pain that winces insistent to be healed
The only antidote is love what you conceal
All my life a predilection for a gentlemen's cologne
A deep desire that's been carved in stone
It's four dimensional
It's homosexual

All, all of my life I've been waiting for the sun
Sun to come out
You're here and it's like my favorite record
Wanna drown in the sound
Mmm Cause you're the one I've waited for
The feelings are consensual
The chemistry is mutual
The mood is homosexual
It's Homosexual

It's not an interest
Non monsieur
On overpowering love force majeure
I caught a feeling a feeling I can't deny
I found a paradise lost behind a smile
All my life I've been searching for that perfume leather and dirt
A mix of existential pain and desire
Incomprehensible
It's homosexual
All my life
Oh

It's not a blessing and it's not a curse
It's homosexual
A crystal technicolor neon tour de force
It's not a feeling a feeling you can describe
A secret lexicon of love behind your eyes
All my life I've been searching for that shockwave deep in my soul
I've been incorrigible since I was born
It's intentional
It's homosexual
It's homosexual

All, all of my life I've been waiting for the sun
Sun to come out
You're here and it's like my favorite record
Wanna drown in the sound
Mmm cause you're the one I've waited for
The feelings are consensual
The chemistry is mutual
The mood is homosexual

It's homosexual
It's homosexual
It's homosexual
It's homosexual
It's homosexual
It's homosexual
It's homosexual
It's homosexual
It's homosexual
It's homosexual

You're here and it's like my favorite record
You're here and it's like my favorite record
You're here and it's like my favorite record
You're here and it's like it was the summer of love
It was the summer of love

It was the summer of love
It was the summer of love
It was the summer of love
It was the summer of love

Music Video lyrics - Darren Hayes

1982

Oh I was a very young ten years old
Tenderoni got to school early to avoid home
I was emerging I was finding myself
A butterfly before the guys
Knew I was different but I wasn't ashamed yet
Oh Tammy Loewe you were the only fly girl in school
And I was obsessed with you
With your hair and your beautiful brown eyes
I was gonna direct you in my own music video
I had to get your hair just right
And that's when I felt a slap from behind
The school Principal she said
"Oh Darren Hayes you're a little fairy aren't you?
If I catch you playing with the girls again you'll be in detention
Because I know there's a name for boys like you"

There's a place I wanna go
Inside a music video
Where boys wear makeup and we play guitar
Neon is how I feel love is a battlefield
That's the place I wanna live
Where girls have names like Billie Jean
We dance in front of my VCR
Steal a DeLorean never look back again

1984
Oh I was a very young twelve years old
Shy but lonely not quite a girl but quite a ways from the guys
Internalizing I was hiding my magic
Sensitive lost in my mind
I knew I was different but I thought I could change it
Ooh Stephen Baker you were the handsome new boy at school
And I was obsessed with you
Your messy hair and those braces and that smile
I fantasized about holding hands
I liked to imagine what a hug would feel like
But that's when I got a letter from Mike
I opened it up it said
"Oh Darren Hayes you're in love with Stephen, aren't you?
Well if I catch you watching him in class again you'll get a broke nose
Because Darren there's a name for boys like you"

There's a place I wanna go
Inside a music video
Where boys wear makeup and we play guitar
Neon is how I feel love is a battlefield
That's the place I wanna live
Where girls have names like Billie Jean
We dance in front of my VCR
Steal a DeLorean never look back again

There's a place I wanna go
Inside a music video
Where boys wear makeup and we play guitar
Neon is how I feel love is a battlefield
That's the place I wanna live
Ooh and I did
Where girls have names like Billie Jean
You know
We dance in front of my VCR
Steal a DeLorean
I never looked back again

Euphoric Equation lyrics - Darren Hayes

In the beginning there was darkness
There was no mercy it was heartless
Sometimes to survive this life you gotta learn to run
Stay ahead of the night
Some days when the fire inside dies
You gotta find your mark
Cheat the light
Banish darkness

I was a kid
I was petrified
I couldn't look in my daddy's eyes
I'd count em down
Every drink he took
And when the bad guy arrived
I would just hide
I was a man
Twenty three years old
The first time I ever told a soul
About the violence inside my home
I didn't even cry
It's how I survived

I never meant to complicate things
I never meant to disappear in my mind
I never meant to swallow my heart
But darkness travels faster than the speed of love
I tried to run but I couldn't escape it
Sadness fills the void where joy is vacant
Got to chase the light
Gotta do what you can to survive
To survive
I survived
I survived
I survived

Ooh hoo yeah
Ooh hoo yeah
Ooh hoo yeah

I was a child
I was cursed and damned
Called me a name I didn't understand
Made me ashamed of who I am
So I killed that side
A part of me died

I met a man via pseudonym
Said my bravado wasn't fooling him
He saw a fracture in my Kingdom wall
He said strength be damned
Let it fall

I never meant to complicate things
I never meant to disappear in my mind
I never meant to swallow my heart
But darkness travels faster than the speed of love

I tried to run but I couldn't escape it
Sadness fills the void where joy is vacant
Got to chase the light
Gotta do what you can to survive
To survive
I survived
I survived
I survived

Ooh hoo yeah
Ooh hoo yeah
Ooh hoo yeah

Darkness and light are joy adjacent
Both cannot exist in the same equation
Shadows are bigger than the fools who make them
Darkness travels faster than the speed of love

You can try to run but you can't escape it
Sadness fills the void where joy is vacant
Open up your heart to instantaneous light
To light
To light
To light
To light

Oh hoo
Oh hoo
Oh hoo
Oh hoo

Nocturnal Animal lyrics - Darren Hayes

You pay a fee to get a dog
You have to prove your home is suitable
But anyone can be a Dad
And your dysfunction was transmissible

I can't remember all I've seen
My body found a way to hide the hell
You violated boundaries
Now healthy boundaries feel like betrayal

Yeah! Come on! Yeah!

I am the Queen of flight or flight
My codependencies are multiple
I would never draw first blood
And if betrayed I'll give the cold shoulder for life

Midnight to three is when I feel the safest
My panic subsides
And my trauma erases
Most of my life I grew up on a fault line
So don't look surprised
That I can't fall asleep in the dark

Yeah! Come on! Yeah! Whoo! Come on!
Yeah! Whoo! Come on! Yeah! Alright!

I tried to build a mighty wall
I fortified it with charm and wit
Now there are things I can't recall
Cause you invaded it without consent at all

I was the master of control
I thought if I was God my luck would change
I could ascend above the clouds
But how was I to know one word could strike me down

Yeah! Come on! Yeah!

I am the King of freeze or fawn
My dissociation is statuesque
I can't maintain relationships
Unless there's something that's broke and can't be fixed

Midnight to three is when I feel the safest
My panic subsides
And my trauma erases
Most of my life I grew up on a fault line
So don't look surprised
That I can't fall asleep in the dark

You are of your Father and the lusts of the Father you will do
He was a murderer from the beginning and he abode not in the truth
Because there is no truth in him
When he speaketh the lie he speaketh of his own
For he is a liar and the father of all lies
I heard a voice from the clouds

Take me by the hand and lead me to a land of foreign pleasure
Take me by the hand and lead me to a land of foreign pleasure
Take me by the hand and lead me to a land of foreign pleasure
Take me by the hand and lead me to a land of foreign pleasure

Come on!

Take me by the hand and lead me to a land of foreign pleasure
Take me by the hand and lead me to a land of foreign pleasure
Take me by the hand and lead me to a land of foreign pleasure
Take me by the hand and lead me to a land of foreign pleasure

Yeah! Come on! Yeah! Whoo! Come on!
Yeah! Whoo! Come on! Yeah! Whoo! Alright!

Feels Like It's Over lyrics - Darren Hayes

I know I'm lost
A ghost inhabiting the shell of a man
Who looks like someone you loved
And I'm cognizant of the way our eyes will do anything
To avoid exchanging pain

I died a little
Cried a river and now our tears have all turned into stone
Embraced in our Pompei

It feels like it's over
But nobody's leaving
There's so much love left
So why am I grieving
You go to bed first
I stay up reading
You have your back turned
You're already dreaming
Dancing in circles
Avoiding the inevitable
It's so polite and that's what's breaking my heart
Because we don't even fight for it
We don't even break a sweat
We don't even scream or cry but baby there was a time
When baby you and I
We would have died defending this love
We would have died for it
We would have died defending it
We would have died

When I was young
I guess it fulfilled me emotionally
To give myself away
That selfless act was not as noble as it first seemed
It tethered you to me

The fire in your eyes
The independent streak that drew me close to me
It cooled under my reign

It feels like it's over
But nobody's leaving
There's so much love left
So why am I grieving
You go to bed first
I stay up reading
You have your back turned
You're already dreaming
Dancing in circles
Avoiding the inevitable
It's so polite and that's what's breaking my heart
Because we don't even fight for it
We don't even break a sweat
We don't even scream or cry but baby there was a time
When baby you and I
We would have died defending this love
We would have died for it
We would have died defending it
We would have died

Sunlight to sunset
Lovers to best friends
Making us feel like we're
Strangers in strange beds
Fumbling through feelings
Habitual dealings
Movie ended waiting for
Post credit scenes yeah

Sunlight to sunset
Lovers to best friends
Making us feel like we're
Strangers in strange beds
Fumbling through feelings
Habitual dealings
Movie ended waiting for
Post credit scenes yeah

It feels like it's over
But nobody's leaving
There's so much love left
So why am I grieving
You go to bed first
I stay up reading
You have your back turned
You're already dreaming
Dancing in circles
Avoiding the inevitable
It's so polite and that's what's breaking my heart
Because we don't even fight for it
We don't even break a sweat
We don't even scream or cry but baby there was a time
When baby you and I
We would have died defending this love
We would have died for it
We would have died defending it

It feels like it's over
But nobody's leaving
There's so much love left
So why am I grieving
You go to bed first
I stay up reading
You have your back turned
You're already dreaming
Dancing in circles
Avoiding the inevitable
It's so polite and that's what's breaking my heart
Because we don't even fight for it
We don't even break a sweat

All You Pretty Things lyrics - Darren Hayes

All you pretty things
Yeah all you pretty things
All you pretty things
Came here to dance
You came here to find love
And you're all such pretty things
And you'll remain pretty things
Until the end of time

Juan and Drew were getting married
They were honestly in love
And Top Hat Eddie had a big heart
Luis' smile lit up the park

And just for one night
The world's problems seemed to fade away
Under flashing lights
I wish that things would always be this way

So never forget
And never give up
But don't ever stop
Keep dancing the pain away
Don't let the past
Steal from today
As long as we've got our memories love remains

Kimberly was always smiling
Eddie was his mamma's heart
Anthony he sure could salsa
Brenda was the coolest Mom

And just for one night
The world's heartache seemed to disappear
Under strobe lights
Everyone is beautiful in here

So never forget
And never give up
But don't ever stop
Keep dancing the pain away
Don't let the past
Steal from today
As long as we've got our memories love remains

We've got to
Dance to remember them
Dance to remember them
Dance to remember them
We've got to
Dance to remember them
Dance to remember them
Dance to remember them

All you pretty things
Yeah all you pretty things
All you pretty things
Came here to dance
And you came here to find love
And you're all such pretty things
And you'll remain pretty things
Until the end of time

So never forget
And never give up
But don't ever stop
Keep dancing the pain away
Don't let the past
Steal from today
As long as we've got our memories love remains

So never forget
And never give up
But don't ever stop
Keep dancing the pain away
Don't let the past
Steal from today
As long as we've got our memories love remains

We've got to
Dance to remember them
Dance to remember them
Dance to remember them

We've got to
Dance to remember them
Dance to remember them
Dance to remember them

We've got to
Dance to remember them
Dance to remember them
Dance to remember them

We've got to
Dance to remember them
Dance to remember them
Dance to remember them...

We Are Alchemists lyrics - Darren Hayes

Do what you want with me
You know I can't refuse
Replace the scars in me
With your emotional tattoos

I was never consciously looking for love
The universe conspired in the absence of
Maybe I'm an alchemist and you are a dove
Taking all the hurt and turning pain into love

I never meant to seek you out
I never meant call you forth
But in my mind I was searching yeah
Behind enemy lines
Behind a curtain yeah

We can dance if you want to
We can try to forget
We can touch if you need to
It might help with regret
And we can kiss if you want to
Turn our sadness to sex
We can dance if you want to
We are alchemists

Do what you want with me
In the silence I'll let go
Be who you want with me
I'll make a house with a damaged home

Stumbling around in a chamber of light
A thousand tiny mirrors and a laser messiah
Desire's all around but it's open secret
Rolling in the ground you know we both reek of it

I never meant to give you up
(Feel alone, I feel alone, I feel alone, I'm just a lonely pilgrim)
I never meant to watch you fall
(All alone, oh I'm so alone, just a bunch of bones, I'm just a lonely pilgrim)
And In my mind I went searching
(I wasn't consciously looking for love I was searching for myself)
Behind enemy lines
(Behind the curtain)

And we can dance if you want to
(If you want to)
We can try to forget
We can touch if you need to
(If you need to)
It might help with regret
(When everything's over)
And we can kiss if you want to
(If you want to)
Turn our sadness to sex
(When everything's over would you)
We can dance if you want to
(If you want to)
We are alchemists

Hoo hoo whoa

I feel alone
Oh I feel alone
A bunch of broken bones
Put me back together baby
With alchemy
One part you
One me
We're making gold from gold
It's deep magic baby

We can dance if you want to
(If you want to)
We can try to forget
(When everything's over would you)
We can touch if you need to
(If you need to)
It might help with regret
(When everything's over would you)
We can kiss if you want to
(If you want to)
Turn our sadness to sex
(When everything's over would you)
We can dance if you want to
(If you want to)
We are alchemists

When everything's over would you dance for us?
When everything's over would you dance for us?
When everything's over would you dance for us?
When everything's over would you dance for us?
When everything's over

Homosexual (Act Two) lyrics - Darren Hayes

If it's all my fault
Then it's all your fault
'Cause if man was created in the image of God
Then maybe she's a homosexual
Can't be wrong
When it feels so right
And if loving is a sin you can count me in
Yes baby I'm a homosexual

Every little fleck of blue inside my eyes is by design
Every little imperfection I possess uniquely mine

If it's all my fault
Then it's all your fault
'Cause if man was created in the image of god
Then maybe she's a homosexual

It's not a blessing, it's not a curse
A crystal technicolor neon tour-de-force
It's not a feeling feeling you can describe
A secret lexicon of love behind your eyes
All my life
I've been searching for that nectar deep in my bones
A sweet molasses tooth ache of desire
It's not correctable, it's homosexual

If it's all my fault
Then it's all your fault
'Cause if man was created in the image of God
Then maybe she's a homosexual
Can't be wrong
When it feels so right
And if loving is a sin you can count me in
Yes baby I'm a homosexual

All all of my life
I've been waiting for the sun sun to come out
You're here and it's like my favorite record
Wanna drown in the sound

Mmm 'cause you're the one I've waited for
The feelings are consensual
The chemistry is mutual
The mood is homosexual

I can not fool you, can't evade
I'm a book and you are reading every page
A pain that winces insistent to be healed
It's not correctable, it's homosexual

All my life
I've been searching for that perfume, leather and dirt
A mix of existential pain and desire
Incomprehensible, it's homosexual

If it's all my fault
Then it's all your fault
'Cause if man was created in the image of God
Then maybe she's a homosexual
Can't be wrong
When it feels so right
And if loving is a sin you can count me in
Yes baby I'm a homosexual

Every little fleck of blue inside my eyes is by design
Every little imperfection I possess uniquely mine

If it's all my fault
Then it's all your fault
'Cause if man was created in the image of God
Then maybe she's a homosexual

All all of my life
I've been waiting for the sun sun to come out
You're here and it's like my favorite record
Wanna drown in the sound

Mmm cause you're the one I've waited for
The feelings are consensual
The chemistry is mutual
The mood is homosexual

It's homosexual
Hooo

Don't make it wrong
Don't make it wrong

If it's all my fault
Then it's all your fault
'Cause if man was created in the image of God
Then maybe she's a homosexual
Can't be wrong
When it feels so right
And if loving is a sin you can count me in
Yes baby I'm a homosexual

Every little fleck of blue inside my eyes is by design
Every little imperfection I possess uniquely mine

If it's all my fault
Then it's all your fault
'Cause if man was created in the image of God
Then maybe she's a homosexual

All all of my life
I've been waiting for the sun sun to come out
You're here and it's like my favorite record
Wanna drown in the sound

Mmm cause you're the one I've waited for
The feelings are consensual
The chemistry is mutual
The mood is homosexual

Birth lyrics - Darren Hayes

There's a feeling inside me
Under layers of dirt
Jekyll and Hyding from me
In a bloodstained shirt
Buried 6 feet in my gut
Scratching at my skin to break out

There's a creature inside me
All sticky and black
Squirms like an octopus
With the teeth of a rat
All it wants to do is be heard
But what if I don't wanna give birth?

There's a creature inside me
Wanna squish down the drain
Synthetic hair clumps
And polyurethane
All it wants to do is have worth
But what if I don't wanna give birth?

You're too late!
I guess you're having a baby!

It's in me but not from me
It when rules me so tread carefully
It's in me but not from me
It's sleeping
So don't make it angry!

There's a feeling inside me
All rotten and green
Feels like a pregnancy
That doesn't wanna be seen
All those years of scar tissue
Am I the scar am I the wound?

There's a bullet inside me
But it didn't explode
I'm getting tired of waiting
For another episode
All I wanna do is go bang
If only I could find an exit wound

There's a feeling inside me
Under layers of skin
Pushing like like an embryo
Made of guilt and sin
Negotiating when to be born
What will it want in return?

You're too late!
I guess you're having a baby

Oh my love oh my love I am so afraid
Every day I am terrified to wake up and open my eyes
And I know it's a phantom fear
And the bad guy's not really here
Every day I've been building walls to protect a fragile part of me
I've been hiding it all my life
Keeping it safe from things out there
But it's been draining me and all the world can see

There's a sadness behind my eyes
There's a sadness behind my eyes
There's a sadness behind my eyes
There's a sadness behind my eyes

It's in me but not from me
It rules me so tread carefully
It's in me but not from me
It's sleeping so don't make it angry

I guess you're having a baby!

There's a feeling inside me
It didn't get there alone
PTSD or a loose chromosome
I don't care which came first
Something's about to burst
It's been here so long now
It began as a laugh
If I'm not careful be my epitaph
I don't wanna live this way
Maybe when it sleeps I can escape

There's a feeling inside me under layers of hurt
Can't tell if it's friend or foe or pain inverted
But I don't wanna have to give birth
What if I don't wanna give birth?
What if I don't wanna give birth?

What if I don't wanna give birth?
What if I don't wanna give life to this?
What if I don't wanna confront?
What if I don't wanna examine this?
Something deep inside
Something I have tired to hide so long
Even from myself
Something inside that scares
Something inside but not from me at all
Something inside since I was three years old
Something inside that feels so big and tall
Something inside so harmless right up close
Something inside I dreamed up long ago
Maybe this something it has a name
Maybe this something it has a name
Maybe this something is only shame
Maybe this something is only shame
Maybe this something is only shame
What if I let go?
What if I let go?
What if I let go?

Let's try being in love
Being in love
Let's try being in love
Being in love

Flew away from it all
Turned around and the scene had ended
Flew away from it all
Won't be left out in the cold again
Let's try being in love
Flew away from it all
Being in love
Being in love
Being in love

Love Is In Everything lyrics - Darren Hayes

I was waiting for someone to call my name
You said a million strangers feel the same
The weight of the world
Resting only in my head
Was all black and white
When it should have been red

But touching your hand
Is making me understand
That love is in everything
The puzzle is hard
But it doesn't mean anything
The colours are deaf
And the love is in everything

I was trying to make sense of all this pain
You said that no one could stay dry in all this rain
I felt like a lone species in Noah's Ark
You said if the road was easy
I wouldn't walk that far

But touching your hand
Is making me understand
That love is in everything
The puzzle is hard
But it doesn't mean anything
The colours are deaf
And the love is in everything

Made me believe again
That love is in everything
The riddle is long
But it doesn't solve anything
Love is in every
Love is in everything

All the lights go out
When the whisper becomes a shout
All the footprints in the sand
When I do not understand

Touching your hand
Is making me understand
That love is in everything
The puzzle is hard
But it doesn't mean anything
The colours are deaf
And the love is in everything

Make me believe again
Love is in everything
The riddle is long
But it doesn't solve anything
Love is in every
Love is in everything

Baby
Love is in everything
The puzzle is hard
Bt it doesn't mean anything
The colours are deaf
And the love is in everything
Yeah

All the light's go out
When the whispers becomes a shout
All the footprints' on the sand
When I do not understand

All the light's go out
When the whispers becomes a shout
All the footprints' on the sand
When I do not understand
