And ignite your bones
And I will try to fix you
And high up above au down below
When you're too in upendo to let it go
But if wewe never try you'll never know
Just what you're worth
Lights will guide wewe home
And ignite your bones
And I will try to fix you
Tears stream down your face
When wewe lose something wewe cannot replace
Tears stream down your face
And I...
Tears stream down on your face
I promise wewe I will learn from my mistakes
Tears stream down your face
And I...
Lights will guide wewe home
And ignite your bones

The lights go out and I can't be saved
Tides that I tried to swim against
Have brought me down upon my knees
Oh I beg, I beg and plead singing
Come out of things unsaid
Shoot an apple off my head and a
Trouble that cant be named
A tiger's waiting to be tamed singing
wewe are
wewe are
Confusion never stops
Closing walls and ticking clocks
Gonna come back and take wewe home
I could not stop that wewe now know singing
Come out upon my seas,
Cursed missed opportunities
Am I a part of the cure
au am I part of the disease, singing
wewe are, wewe are, wewe are
wewe are, wewe are, wewe are
And nothing else compares
And nothing else compares
And nothing else compares

Home, nyumbani where I wanted to go

At night they would go walking ‘till the breaking of the day,
The morning is for sleeping…
Through the dark streets they go searching to see God in their own way,
Save the nighttime for your weeping…
Your weeping…
imba la lalalalala la lé…
And the night over London, hey…
So we rode down to the river where the toiling ghosts spring,
For their curses to be broken…
We’d go underneath the arches where the witches are in the saying,
There are ghost towns in the ocean…
The ocean…
imba la lalalalala la lé…
And the night over London, ey…
God is in the houses and God is in my head… and all the cemeteries in London…
I see God come in my garden, but I don’t know what he said,
For my moyo it wasn’t open….
Not open…
imba la lalalalala la lé…
And the night over London, ey…
imba la lalalalala la lé…
There’s no light over London today…

And I Lost my head,
The thought of all the stupid things I'd said.

How tides control the sea, and what becomes of me
How little things can slip out of your hands
How often people change, not to remain the same
Why things don't always turn out as wewe plan
These are things that I don't understand
Yeah, these are things that I don't understand
I can't, and I can't decide
Wrong, oh my wrong from right
Day, oh my siku from night
Dark, oh my dark from light
I live, but I upendo this life
How infinite is space, and who decides your fate
Why everything will dissolve into sand
How to avoid defeat, when truth and fiction meet
Why nothing ever turns out as wewe plan
These are things that I don't understand
Yeah, these are things that I don't understand
I can , and I can't decide
Wrong, oh my wrong from right
Day, oh my siku from night

I live, but I upendo this life

So wewe Lost your trust
And wewe never should have

With the windows all closed

Smoke is rising from the houses
People burying their dead
I ask somebody what the time is
But time doesn´t matter to them yet
People talking without speaking
Trying to take what they can get
I ask wewe if wewe remember
Prospekt, how could I forget?
Drums, here it comes
don´t wewe wish that life can be as simple
As samaki swimming round in a barrel?
When you´ve got the gun
Oh when I run, here it comes
We're just two little figures in a supu bowl
Trying to get to any kind of control
But I wasn´t one
Now here I lie on my own in a separate sky
Here I lie on my own in a separate sky
I don´t wanna die on my own here tonight
But here I lie on my own in a separate sky
People burying their dead
I ask somebody what the time is

And it's so hard to see wewe clearly

Just because I'm losing
Doesn't mean I'm lost
Doesn't mean I'll stop
Doesn't mean I'm across
Just because I'm hurting
Doesn't mean I'm hurt
Doesn't mean I didn't get what I deserve
No better and no worse

Every river that I've tried to cross
And every door I ever tried was locked
Ooh-Oh, And I'm just waiting till the shine wears off...
wewe might be a big fish
In a little pond
Doesn't mean you've won
'Cause along may come
A bigger one
And you'll be lost
Every river that wewe tried to cross
Every gun wewe ever held went off
Ooh-Oh, And I'm just waiting till the firing starts
Ooh-Oh, And I'm just waiting till the shine wears off
Ooh-Oh, And I'm just waiting till the shine wears off
Ooh-Oh, And I'm just waiting till the shine wears off…
