Heathen Chemistry


The Hindu Times

I get up when I'm down
I can't swim but my soul won't drown
I do believe I've got flare
I got speed and I walk on air

Cos god give me a soul
In your rock n' roll babe
Cos god give me a soul
In your rock n' roll babe
And I get so high I just can't feel it
And I get so high I just can't feel it

In and out my brain
Running through my veins
Cos you're my sunshine
You're my rain

Theres a light that shines on
Shines on me
And it keeps me warm
It gave me peace
I must say
I cant sleep
Cos the world wont wait

Cos god give me a soul
In your rock n' roll babe
Cos god give me a soul
In your rock n' roll babe
I can get so high I just can't feel it
I can get so high I just can't feel it

And I get so high I just can't feel it
And I get so high I just can't feel it
And I get so high I just can't feel it
And I get so high I just can't feel it

In and out my brain
Running through my veins
Cos you're my sunshine
You're my rain


Force of Nature

One, two, three, four..
Yeah I feel like a force of nature
Could make you sing like a bird released
If what you seek is a wise mans treasure
You know it's buried beneath your feet

You know you look like a faded picture
I see the cracks freezing on your skin
And as the world slowly turns it hits ya
That the thieves of the night are coming to take you in

You're smokin all my stash
But burning all my cash
I bet ya knew right away
It's all over town
As the suns going down
And the days of your easy life
I bet ya knew right away
Ya hope ya don't know where it's at
It's all over town
As the suns going down
And it's high time to pray

Yeah I feel like a force of nature
Could make you sing like a bird released
If what you seek is a wise mans treasure


Hung In A Bad Place

I can go where I wanna
Be who I wanna be now
I can sleep under water
And not worry what I'm gonna dream now
yeah the time's come and gone
And I know where I'm from
I can be so
It's hasta maņana
You're on your own banana-skin feet now

Yeah I've been
Hung in a bad place
I've no
Sun on my face
I've been
Hung in a bad place for too long

I can say what I wanna
Feel how I wanna feel now
I can squeeze all the hours of juice
To devour with ease now
I can sing to the trees
As I'm not on my knees for free,
Yeah-heh-heh-he-he-he-he (?)
You've been bought and you're stolen
Nature is callin for me
You got me

Yeah i've been
Hung in a bad place
I've no
Sun on my face
I've been
Hung in a bad place for too long

Yeah I've been
Hung in a bad place
I've no
Sun on my face
I've been
Hung in a bad place for too long
For too long, for too long, for too long
For too long, for too long, for too long
For too long, for too looooooooooooooooong


Little By Little

We the people fight for our existence
We don't claim to be perfect but we're free
We dream our dreams alone with no resistance
Fading like the stars we wish to be

Y'know I didn't mean
What I just said
But my god woke up on the wrong side of his bed
And it just don't matter now

Cause little by little
We gave you everything you ever dreamed of
Little by little
The wills of your life have slowly fallen off
Little by little
You have to give it all in all your life
And all the time I just ask myself why
You're really here

Dream perfection has to be imperfect
I know that that sounds foolish but it's true
The day has come and now you have to accept
The life inside your head we give to you

No I didn't mean
What I just said
But my god woke up on the wrong side of his bed
And it just don't matter now

Cause little by little
We gave you everything you ever dreamed of
Little by little
The wills of your life have slowly fallen off
Little by little
You have to give it all in all your life
And all the time I just ask myself why
You're really here

(Hey!)

Little by little
We gave you everything you ever dreamed of
Little by little
The wills of your life have slowly fallen off
Little by little
You have to give it all in all your life
And all the time I just ask myself why
You're really here

Why am I really here?
Why am I really here?


Songbird

Talkin to the songbird yesterday
Flew me to a place not far away
She's a little pilot in my mind
Singin songs of love to pass the time
Gonna write a song so she can see
Give her all the love she gives to me
Talk of better days that have yet to come
Never felt this love from anyone

She's not anyone
She's not anyone
She's not anyone

A man can never dream these kind of things
Especially when she came and spread her wings
Whisper in my ear the things I'd like
Then she flew away into the night
Gonna write a song so she can see
Give her all the love she gives to me
Talk of better days that have yet to come
Never felt this love from anyone

She's not anyone
She's not anyone
She's not anyone


Stop Crying Your Heart Out

Hold up
Hold on
Don't be scared
You'll never change what's been and gone

May your smile (may your smile)
Shine on (shine on)
Don't be scared (don't be scared)
Your destiny may keep you warm

Cos all of the stars
Are fading away
Just try not to worry
You'll see them some day
Take what you need
And be on your way
And stop crying your heart out

Get up (get up)
Come on (come on)
Why're you scared? (I'm not scared)
You'll never change
What's been and gone

Cos all of the stars
Are fading away
Just try not to worry
You'll see them some day
Take what you need
And be on your way
And stop crying your heart out

Cos all of the stars
Are fading away
Just try not to worry
You'll see them some day
Take what you need
And be on your way
And stop crying your heart out

We're all of us stars
We're fading away
Just try not to worry
You'll see us some day
Just take what you need
And be on your way
And stop crying your heart out
Stop crying your heart out
Stop crying your heart out


All In Your Mind

Show me who you are
I'll show you what you love
I'll give you half the world if that's enough

Let me take you down
Let me hear you smile
Let me rest my head here for a while

In the end we'll leave it all behind
Because the love I think I'm tryin' to find
It's probably all in the mind

Show me who you are
I'll show you what you love
I'll give you all the world if that's enough

In the end we'll leave it all behind
Because the love I think I'm tryin' to find
It's probably all in the mind

In the end we'll leave it all behind
In the end we'll leave it all behind
In the end we'll leave it all behind

Because the love I think I'm tryin' to find
It's probably all in the mind

All in the mind
All in the mind
All in the mind


She Is Love

When the sunshine beckons to you
And your wings begin to unfold
The thoughts you bring and the songs you sing
Are gonna keep me from the cold
And if a soul is hidden among ya
And it's words may rule my soul
You can fill me up with what you got
Cus my hearts meant to keep it all

She is love, and her ways are high and steep
She is love, and I believe her when she speaks
Love, and her ways are high and steep
She is love, and I believe I do believe her when she speaks

You read all my thoughts of passion
And the dreams of my delight
Whatever stirs my mottled frame
Well you keep it warm at night
I don't know where you come from
And no I haven't got a clue
All I know is I'm in love
With someone who loves me too

She is love, and her ways are high and steep
She is love, and I believe her when she speaks
Love, and her ways are high and steep
She is love, and I believe I do believe her when she speaks

She is love, and her ways are high and steep
She is love, and I believe her when she speaks
She is love, and her ways are high and steep
She is love, and I believe I do belive her when she speaks

I do believe her when she speaks
I do believe her when she speaks
I do believe her when she speaks
