Default Gift of Screws album lyrics

Great Day
Long and slender altar in the sky
And the warm winds blowing
And the riverbed was flowing
A star-crossed lover getting hotter and hotter
Oh, I didn't mean to hover
I just had to love her
Swimming in the water
Goggle at the moon
The currents they caught her
Hiding in my room
Mirrors in her eyes
She was wet, she was soakin'
Ashes in the ocean and her heart was broken
It was a great day, great day
It was a great day, great day
It was a great day, great day, great day, great day
It was a great day, great day
The day was dark and burning all the time we were learning
The rules concerning the corner we were turning
A wish that is walking is just a crime scene talking
If it's a plea that you're copping it's just a door that you're locking
Great day, great day
It was a great day, great day
It was a great day, great day, great day, great day
It was a great day, great day
It wasn't such a great day
It wasn't such a great day
It wasn't such a great day

Time Precious Time
Take all the time that you want
Take all the time that you need
Slow and easy, you might succeed
Time precious time precious time precious time precious time
Time precious time precious time precious time precious time
Searching for scars that you hide
Looking beneath every stone
Half deep, half empty
This must be home
Time precious time precious time precious time precious time
Time precious time precious time precious time precious time
Remember, remember
Time precious time precious time precious time precious time
Time precious time precious time precious time precious time
Remember, remember

Did You Miss Me
I took a trip out of town, a hundred years underground
And had to swim across the sea
Oh, when you were my baby
Did you miss me in the morning?
Did you miss me in the evening?
When everyone is bound to dream
And did you ever run where the wind blows?
Did you ever go where I didn't know?
Oh baby, did you miss me?
A hundred years out of town
Is not so long I found
Just long enough to get free
Oh, when you were my baby
Did you miss me in the morning?
Did you miss me in the evening?
When everyone is bound to dream
And did you ever run where the wind blows?
Did you ever go where I didn't know?
Oh baby, did you miss me?
Look at us now, years fall down
Show me how
Check it out, hear the sound
All these walls are coming down
That's just you, that's just me
Oh, when you were my baby
Did you miss me in the morning?
Did you miss me in the evening?
When everyone is bound to dream
And did you ever run where the wind blows?
Did you ever go where I didn't know?
Oh baby, did you miss me?

Wait For You
Tarantula passes by the window
No one takes it as a sign
No one cares which way the wind blows
Someone's got to change your mind
Every bone has been broken
All rumours lost at sea
Every word, every language has been spoken
Someone's got to set you free
I'm going to wait for you
I'm going to wait for you
Suicide days, suicide, suicide nights
In the wheelchair almost blind
Someone's going to have to pay the price
Someone's got to change your mind
I'm going to wait for you
I'm going to wait for you
Is it just that we must?
Is it hear that we gear?
Is it only that we're lonely?
Is it there that we dare?
Is it lies that we fight?
Is it whores we adore?
Is it god with a rod taking more, more, more?
I'm going to wait for you
I'm going to wait for you
No one knows my name
No one knows my name
Walking down the street, baby, now

Love Runs Deeper
Well you came to me, you cooled my mind
The stakes were high, impossible to describe
I loved you little child, how you mystified
Just a blinding flash, we were parallel lines
Love runs deeper from the underground
Love runs deeper from a broken home
Black angel can't be alone
Love runs deeper from the underground
In the shadow moon steel tears I cried
You were out of tune, it seemed to suit my dark side
You had a prophet's pose and two states of mind
I was sure I'd go, we were parallel lines
Love runs deeper from the underground
Love runs deeper from a broken home
Black angel can't be alone
Love runs deeper from the underground
Love runs deeper from the underground
Love runs deeper from the underground
Love runs deeper from a broken home
Black angel can't be alone
Love runs deeper from the underground

Bel Air Rain
Fighting for a cause I can't remember anymore
Well I guess you could say that I was framed
Somebody said there would be a knock at my door
Oh, but that knock, it never came
I changed my name, I went insane
Still I can't complain, standing in the Bel Air rain
Standing in the Bel Air rain
Standing in the Bel Air rain
In my younger days I was mistaken for a whore
I guess you could say I lived in shame
Everyone's peace lives side by side with their war
Oh, but eventually everyone gets tamed
I changed my name, I went insane
Still I can't complain, standing in the Bel Air rain
Standing in the Bel Air rain
Standing in the Bel Air rain

Right Place To Fade
I'm a little lost, let me find my way
I'm a little dead, let me live
Been living in the past, let me rise today
Lead a selfish life, help me give
How long, how long, how long, how long we wait
Waiting for the light that might light our way
Waiting for the right place to fade
You were living under the reign of kings
You were living under the gun
I know it made you do a lot of things
You wish that you'd never done
How long, how long, how long, how long we hesitate
Waiting for the light that might light our way
Waiting for the right place to fade
Come along, lay down and talk to me
Tell me all your fear will allow
It doesn't matter who we thought we were
We ain't got time for that now
How long, how long, how long, how long we wait
Waiting for the light that might light our way
Waiting for the right place to fade
I swear, I swear, I swear it's not too late
Waiting for the light that might light our way
Waiting for the right place to fade
Waiting for the right place to fade
Waiting for the right place to fade

Gift of Screws
Way down here everybody needs
Authority makes us bleed, bleed, bleed
Essential oils are wrung
The attar from the rose
Is not expressed by suns alone
It is the gift of screws
Way down here everybody frowns
Authority keeps us down, down, down
Essential oils are wrung
The attar from the rose
Is not expressed by suns alone
It is the gift of screws

Underground
Give us a song but don't live what you sing
Say what you mean but please don't mean a thing
I think I might wander underground
I think I might wander underground
They heard fifteen seconds and that was enough
The idea was new but the business was rough
I think I might wander underground
I think I might wander underground
I go to my lover, we lay on our bed
Did I sell my heart for the dreams in my head?
I think I might wander underground
I think I might wander underground

Treason
I called you up, they said you weren't there
Years ago I was low, why should I care?
I wondered down where the sky meets the sand
Closed my eyes, told you lies out of my hand
Deep down there is freedom
Deep down there will be a reason
At the end of the season
We will rise from this treason
I walked around moonlit skies
All alone, going home, hoping to fly
Face down in the ocean
Always gasping for air
Saw your face full of grace trying not to care
Deep down there is freedom
Deep down there will be a reason
At the end of the season
We will rise from this treason
I walk empty halls wondering what is true
Behind garden walls I search for you
Deep down in the ocean, deep down in the sea
Saw your face full of grace searching for me
Deep down there is freedom
Deep down there will be a reason
At the end of the season
We will rise from this treason
Deep down there is freedom
Deep down there will be a reason
At the end of the season
We will rise from this treason
We will rise from this treason
We will rise from this treason
We will rise from this treason
