| Calling all stations Can anybody tell me, tell me exactly where I am I've lost all sense of direction Watching the darkness closing around me Feel the cold all through my body That's why I'm calling all stations In the hope that someone hears me A single lonely voice I feel the sensation disappearing There's a tingling in my arms And there's a numbness in my hands All the broken promises All my good intentions don't add up to very much And I realise whatever happened, whatever happened I remember all the moments that I've wasted in my life All the things I was always gonna do Why is it now when it's too late That I've finally realised it's important to me To think that everything that's dear to me and is always in my heart Could so easily be taken and it's tearing me apart Going over and over in my mind I relive it one second at a time Calling all stations Can anybody tell me, tell me exactly where I am How different things look when your all on your own Watching the darkness closing all around me, all around me And I'm lost with feeling of your arms to remind me Of everything that's dear to me and is always in my heart Could so easily be taken and it's tearing me apart Going over and over in my mind I relive it one second at a time Don't you know there's never been a moment When I haven't had the thought That everything that's dear to me and is always in my heart Could so easily be taken and it's tearing me apart Going over and over in my mind I relive it one second at a time As I sit here in the darkness feeling so alone And everything that's dear to me and is always in my heart... | ||||||||||||||||||

| I'm a million miles from anywhere, where can I be Somewhere out in the ocean Just take a look out on the horizon, what can you see There's nothing there for me I feel shipwrecked I might as well be shipwrecked I'm helpless and alone, drifting out to sea I can't believe what you said to me Even standing on the corner of a busy city street I still feel so lonely Why d'you say you wanna be with me But the next day say you don't I'm shipwrecked I might as well be shipwrecked I'm helpless and alone, drifting out to sea I can't believe what you said to me Without you I feel shipwrecked But I can't let it show A million miles away from anywhere, ooh, ooh, ohh Is it my imagination Or is it getting darker, are the waves getting higher I'm a million miles from anywhere A million miles from anything, I'm ooh You know that's why I'm shipwrecked I might as well be shipwrecked I'm helpless and alone, drifting out to sea I can't believe what you said to me You know that's why I'm shipwrecked, shipwrecked Losing my direction Please come and rescue me (shipwrecked) Shipwrecked Shipwrecked Shipwrecked | ||||||||||||||||||

And as you listen to my voice To look for hidden doors, tidy floors, more applause. You've been here all the time, Like it or not, like what you got, You're under the soil (the soil, the soil), Yes, deep in the soil (the soil, the soil, the soil, the soil!). So we'll end with a whistle and end with a bang and all of us fit in our places. VI. Apocalypse In 9/8 (Co-Starring The Delicious Talents Of Gabble Ratchet) With the guards of Magog, swarming around, The Pied Piper takes his children underground. Dragons coming out of the sea, Shimmering silver head of wisdom looking at me. He brings down the fire from the skies, You can tell he's doing well by the look in human eyes. Better not compromise. It won't be easy.666 is no longer alone, He's getting out the marrow in your back bone, And the seven trumpets blowing sweet rock and roll, Gonna blow right down inside your soul. Pythagoras with the looking glass reflects the full moon, In blood, he's writing the lyrics of a brand new tune. And it's hey babe, with your guardian eyes so blue, Hey my baby, don't you know our love is true, I've been so far from here, Far from your loving arms, Now I'm back again, and babe it's gonna work out fine. VII. As Sure As Eggs Is Eggs (Aching Man'S Feet) Can't you feel our souls ignite Shedding ever changing colours, in the darkness of the fading night, Like the river joins the ocean, as the germ in a seed grows We have finally been freed to get back home. There's an angel standing in the sun, and he's crying with a loud voice, "This is the supper of the mighty one", Lord of Lords, King of Kings, Has returned to lead his children home, To take them to the new Jerusalem. | ||||||||||||||||||

| Talking makes us human That's what I was told So why do I find it so difficult To let my feelings unfold Had I the courage to tell you I promise you this If that's what you need I'll be the river, I'll be the mountain, always beside you If that's what you need I will be stronger, I will be braver than ever before And when you came along and turned it all around I promised myself I wouldn't tell you Until we stood on solid ground Holding the candle between us, I'll tell you this If that's what you need I'll be the river, I'll be the mountain, always beside you If that's what you need I will be stronger, I will be braver than ever before And if there's any kind of danger I hear you calling out my name You can follow in my footsteps And I will lead you safely back again I never understood you However hard I tried But it took me a while until I realised That all the problems were mine Holding you nearer to me to tell you this If that's what you need I'll be the river, I'll be the mountain, always beside you If that's what you need I will be stronger, I will be braver than ever before And when things go wrong I'll be your conscience there to remind you all of your life And when you go wrong... | ||||||||||||||||||

| There has always been a dividing line But you choose, you choose, yes you choose not to see it And then you wonder why you fall Cuts through the heart of every city If you climb to the top of the highest building See where it falls as the street lights up the colours start to change You hear a voice inside you Not the words that you wanted to hear Not the things that you wanted to see hey, hey, hey, hey In the comfort and safety of your own home Remember those outside in the cold and the wind and the rain Take in your hands a little ray of light And turn it into a beam that pierces the darkness of the night There has always been a dividing line But you choose, you choose, yes you choose not to see it Sometimes we believe if we close our eyes the rain might wash it away That's why we stumble and we fall Not the words that you wanted to hear Not the things that you wanted to see hey, hey, hey, hey When everything that you hold dear to you Has finally faded away from your life The last cold ray of sunshine slowly disappears Round the corner of the building And leaves you alone When darkness covers the city And the streets are silent too What will you turn to... | ||||||||||||||||||
