Out Of My Head Lyrics

Living in a broken home alone
16 weeks since you've been gone
As time goes by there's no pieces left
No memories of you & me

To shut out feeling lonely; I get Out Of My Head
Lost everything around me
Not dealing with it well
To shut out feeling lonely; I get out of my head
Why would you want to love somebody when love hurts in the end?

Free to see the world now as my own
Sleep with any woman that I want
But anytime anyone gets close
Breaks through my mind, what I have lost

To shut out feeling lonely; I get out of my head
Lost everything around me
Not dealing with it well
To shut out feeling lonely; I get out of my head
Why would you want to love somebody when love hurts in the end?

You called to say you're missing me, but never ask how I feel
I'm beaten, I'm broke
I'm out of my mind, but learning to get on by fine

To shut out being lonely; I get out of my head
Lost everything around me
Not dealing with it well
To shut out being lonely; I get out of my head
Why would you want to love somebody when love hurts in the end?

Out Of My Head

This Tribute track finds a lonely Newman dealing with his pain by getting inebriated every night of the week. Newman wrote the song with British songwriter Steve Booker, who co-penned seven of the tracks on the album, including its lead single "Love Me Again." Booker's other credits include Duffy's hit tune "Mercy," which won the 2009 Ivor Novello Award for most-performed work.

This homage to Northern Soul was penned by Stansfield with her longtime songwriting partner and husband Ian Devaney. The song details the end of a relationship and emotional survival - a common theme on Stansfield's Seven album. "She is really saying to him, 'I will carry on and you're not going to affect my life. I'm not going to fall to pieces because you're not there,'" the singer explained to The Daily Telegraph.

In A Lonely Place Lyrics

Caressing the marble and stone (2 times)
Love is a special form
Were wasting the feeling i feel
I wish you were here with me now (2 times)
Boiling all curls and eyes
Past is the awful and the light
More like a dark ride (feel)
I wish you were here with me now (2 times)
And i wish your arms were here waiting
God stretches time and it grays
Someday we will die in your dreams
I wish you were here with me now (4 times>
And i wish your arms were here waiting
God stretches time and it grays
Someday we will die in your dreams
I wish you were here with me now (2 times)
Caressing the marble and stone (2 times)
Love is a special form
Were wasting the feeling i feel

In A Lonely Place

This was written by the British group Joy Division, but they never recorded it. After Joy Division lead singer Ian Curtis died in 1980, remaining members formed New Order and released this in 1981 on their album Ceremony.

This appears on the soundtrack for The Crow: City Of Angels.

The version on the Bush album Deconstructed was remixed by Tricky. (thanks, James - Dartmouth, Canada, for all above)

Words Lyrics

Words Fell
Like roses at our feet
When you let me see you cry
Your silent lips against my cheek
Words Fell
On a night as black as coal
Your kisses traveled deep
Your eyes pierced my soul
Words Fell

Words Fell
In another place and time
We lived within the woods
Ate berries from the vine
Words Fell
When we lay among the stones
And watched the Druids dance
And walked along the rocky shores
Words Fell

Words Fell
In another place and time
I knew your mournful blue
Knew your golden grace
Words Fell
When we let the ocean hold us
And sank beneath the waves
In the silences of the roses
Words Fell
Words Fell
Words Fell

Words

This tale of verbal abuse finds the protagonist taking refuge in the strength of language. Williams explained to Elsewhere : "The person inside the song is dealing with one of those situations you find yourself in when you are in the wrong relationship and there is yelling and someone is verbally abusing you."

"It's about the victim finding salvation and shelter within her words," she continued. "She can go to that place that nobody can touch, and her songs can become a way of vindication."

"You have to be able to become the subject of the song to have the passion for the subject," Williams added. "But even when I'm writing in the third person I'm always writing about myself."

The People That We Love Lyrics

Speed kills
Coming down the mountain
Speed kills
Coming down the street
Speed kills
With the presence of mind and
Speed kills
If you know what I mean

Got to feel
Woke up inside again
Got to feel
Less broke more fixed
Got to feel
When I got outside myself
Got to feel
When I touched your lips

The things we do
To The People That We Love
The way we break
If there's something we can't take
Destroy the world
That we took so long to make

We expect her gone
For some time
I wish her safe from harm
To find yourself
In a foreign land
Another refugee
Outsider refugee

How's it feel
Coming up roses
How's it feel
She's coming up sweet
How's it feel
When it's all in spite of you
How's it feel
When she's out of your reach

The things we do
To the people that we love
The way we break
If there's something in the way
Destroy the world
That we took so long to make

We expect her gone
For some time
I wish her safe from harm
To find yourself
In a foreign land
Another refugee
Outsider refugee

What happened to you? (x4)

The things we do
To the people that we love
The way we break
If there's something we can't take
Destroy the world
That we took so long to make

The things we do
To the people that we love (x3)
The things we do
To the people that we
That we love

The People That We Love

According to Bush lead singer Gavin Rossdale, this song is about "how you can be the most destructive to the people you love."

The original title was "Speed Kills." The album cover was originally a black silhouette of a plane on the gold background, but after the 9/11 attacks on America, the name of the song and the cover were changed. (thanks, James - Dartmouth, Canada)

This song appeared in the video game Need For Speed: Hot Pursuit 2.

Never Too Far

This is the sole new song on Tubular Beats, a remix album featuring collaborations between Mike Oldfield and Torsten Stenzel of the German Electronica duo York.

The track features Finnish singer Tarja Turunen, who is best known as the former lead vocalist of the symphonic metal band Nightwish. She stated in a press release that Oldfield is one of her idols, adding: "My work in this song was inspired by Mike's (1987 single) 'Islands' featuring another of my youth idols: Bonnie Tyler,. A way to thank them for the nice melodies I grew up with was to add a line from their hit. And I believe Mike liked the idea too. That's how 'Never Too Far' was born."

Bomb Lyrics

Wanted to buy you shiny red things
Thought I'd be with you until the end
How did I know that I would be there
Blow me away
See if I care
Death of a future
Goodbye to my friends
Wish I could see you all again
Family hollow
Family real
Wish you were here see how I feel
Kill a man
Kill a girl
Kill a man
Kill a girl
Jekyll in you
Brings out the wired in me
I have no defense
I'm all that you see
The night is a Bomb blast
The night is on fire
Sing with me in the gasoline cho

Bomb

This song was inspired by the frequent IRA bombings in Ireland. The lyrics are intended to tell the story of a fellow who is just out shopping and ends up killed as an innocent bystander in an IRA bombing. Centuries of feuding between the Protestants and the Catholics have caused many deaths and severe injuries, not just to the people involved in the conflicts, but to innocent bystanders as well.

The song takes a cynical view of violence, as evident in the last two lines: "Of all the bravest stands in time/You stoop so low you'll never rise."

This song was featured on the soundtrack for the 1995 movie Tank Girl. (thanks, Sarah - Yuba City, CA)

...As the Crow Flies Lyrics

I spin around the sun I thank you may I have another
I am an army of one honour and respect my brother
The night is young crowded hearts are nine to four
If ever daylight comes save yourself and save your soul

As the crow flies I will make my way
As the day dies I look back and say
I look back and say well spent time today
I make my own way and I am not afraid

In from the word go bang those troubled thoughts out of your head
What you live is what you know any day alive is better than dead
Lets stay out all night and watch the shadows play in the light
And just look at us now I'm not afraid of failing I'm not afraid of flight

Beautiful in life unforgettable in death
Don't stop dreaming until the last breath
Until the last breath the hunger to be
To think and feel don't stop dreaming until it becomes real

...As the Crow Flies

This is the third single from Heavy Metal Music, the debut studio album from Newsted, which is led by former Metallica bass player Jason Newsted . He said: "As far as the new recordings go, it's one of my favorite moments, if not my favorite moment, on the record — the dual-lead guitar thing in the last 30 seconds of the song."

The video was filmed with director Leon Melas, who previously helmed Newsted's clips for the tracks "Soldierhead" and "King Of The Underdogs."

"As the crow flies" is an idiom for the shortest route between two points. It is actually the rook that flies straight to its destination, rather than the crow, but the two black birds are often identified with each other.

Wonder What's Next Lyrics

It sometimes feels like I'm burning,
I want to succeed,
Is this a good quality?

I Wonder What's Next.

Nothing.

More and more its an animal,
Waiting to be seen,
Face of someone's failures,
I seek society in need, indeed, indeed.

Indeed.

In the beginning it seems that no one thinks beyond having fun,
Which is why you write music in the first place,
Always moving, defining, and pushing forward the art that once created,
Looking to the right time to share it,
And then the headaches of criticism,
Senior advisers advising people above,
Twisting, distorting that which we love,
And never ending problems with money,
Holding you back,
Preventing progress,
I thought you only started 'cause it was fun.

We play the blaming game,
Yes I mind,
Its not your turn.

We play the blaming game,
Yes I mind,
Its not your turn.

We play the blaming game,
Yes I mind,
Its not your turn!

We play the blaming game,
Yes I mind,
Its not your turn!!

I wonder,
I wonder what's next.

Yes we play the blaming,
Yes I mind,
Its not your turn.

We play the blaming game,
Yes I mind,
Its not your turn!

We play the blaming game,
Yes I mind,
Its not your turn!

We play the blaming game!

We play the blaming game!

Nina Persson wrote the lyrics to this ironically titled piano ballad at the last minute on the green porch of her Animal Heart collaborator Eric D. Johnson (The Shins, Fruit Bats) in Portland, Oregon. Persson explained to Artist Direct : "I was really frustrated and stressed but decided that f--- it, I'm just gonna write down anything that matters to me right now, like a book end."

"It was the very last thing I wrote for the record," she added, "and when I was done, I was so incredibly relieved and happy and I decided to never sweat anything again."

In My Room Lyrics

There's a world where I can go
And tell my secrets to
In My Room
In my room

In this world I lock out
All my worries and my fears
In my room
In my room

Do my dreaming and my scheming lie awake and pray
Do my crying and my sighing laugh at yesterday

Now it's dark and I'm alone
But I won't be afraid
In my room
In my room

In My Room

This is written from the perspective of a teenager who feels safe and comfortable in his bedroom. Brian Wilson suffered from severe agoraphobia, and refused to leave his bedroom for a significant amount of time. He wrote this song to give people and idea of how he felt.

Brian Wilson explained in 1990: "When Dennis, Carl and I lived in Hawthorne as kids, we all slept in the same room. One night I sang the song 'Ivory Tower' to them and they liked it. Then a couple of weeks later, I proceeded to teach them both how to sing the harmony parts to it. It took them a little while, but they finally learned it. We then sang this song night after night. It brought peace to us. When we recorded 'In My Room,' there was just Dennis, Carl and me on the first verse... and we sounded just like we did in our bedroom all those nights. This story has more meaning than ever since Dennis' death."

Charles Manson, who was convicted of orchestrating the murders of six people in 1969, made repeated claims that The Beach Boys stole this song from him. In Manson's view, he wrote a song called "In My Cell" which was about how he feels peace with himself in his jail cell. Manson did have a connection to The Beach Boys - he knew their drummer Dennis Wilson - and did write and record some songs. His claims have little basis in fact - something that is true of most of his proclamations.

Linda Ronstadt and Tammy Wynette both covered this song.

Bill Medley from The Righteous Brothers recorded this with Phil Everly and Brian Wilson for his album Damn Near Righteous, his first new album since the untimely 2003 death of his partner Bobby Hatfield. (thanks, Bertrand - Paris, France)

Interesting food for thought: Brian Wilson just might have inadvertently inspired one of the greatest Jazz fusion bands, Blood Sweat & Tears, albeit indirectly. Al Kooper relates in Backstage Passes and Backstabbing Bastards that he was sitting in Brian Wilson's living room while he showed off the Pet Sounds album. He was just leaving The Blues Project and wandering around California in an existential haze wondering what to do next, when while visiting with Brian Wilson, "Deep in the back of my mind was a band that could put dents in your shirt if you got within fifteen rows of the stage..." He explains his idea of having a band with a horn section in it, more than R&B bands but less than Count Basie's or Buddy Rich's. "Somewhere in the middle was a mixture of soul, jazz, and rock that was my little fantasy."

This was released as the B-side of "Be True To Your School."
