Recommended Posts

Cool Thx So we need the last verse of The Man Who Swears 2 Here's Bloodless Revolution:

 

People wanna fight for fun

But what is a battle when the war's already been won

People wanna break what's built

There's no use crying when the milk's already been spilt

Here's a needle, here's a thread

Sew yourself up, clear your head

Here's a needle, here's a thread

Oh no, I meant exactly what I said

 

You might find that you're useless

No better than a hole in the ground

You might find that you're useless

No better than a hole in the ground

 

Look at all the cavemen goin

Turning over to the shore

Ohhh

 

I'm only looking for a bloodless revolution

I'm only looking for a bloodless revolution

I'm only looking for a bloodless revolution

St. Stephen

 

See a bird form a silver

Silver road of only sin

But I'm coming back, don't wither

And the streets that rode the morning in.

 

Light that boat on this river

Gotta know where to begin

Come on out, the other soul of Stephen

Oh things will never be the same again

 

The Fall of Man

 

Sleep on the ocean

Sleep on the sand

I’ve been very busy since the fall of man

Son of the devil

You won’t understand

Now come on, baby,

That's a sudden end

 

Speak of the devil

Inside my head

You’ve been very busy since the world's gonna end

Tired of the symbol

The sun, the sand

Talk a little louder, I don't understand.

 

Gonna get the supper to the world tonight

??? I’m gonna fall asleep.

There’s a tiny little sin I've gotta do.

Got to say that I’m only holding up at night

Turn with the flow, or this storm

 

There’s a world outside, wanna let you in

There’s a world outside, not going in

There’s a world outside that wanna let you in

 

Love, love got over that storm

Before you get somewhere,

Oh, love got over that storm.

 

I've got a wife and kids, a boy named Jack.

I went out for a ride, and I never came back.

Bloodless Revolution

 

People wanna fight for fun

But what is a battle when the war's already been won

People wanna break what's built

There's no use crying when the milk's already been spilt

Here's a needle, here's a thread

Sew yourself up, clear your head

Here's a needle, here's a thread

Oh no, I meant exactly what I said

 

You might find that you're useless

No better than a hole in the ground

You might find that you're useless

No better than a hole in the ground

 

Look at all the cavemen goin

Turning over to the shore

Ohhh

 

I'm only looking for a bloodless revolution

I'm only looking for a bloodless revolution

I'm only looking for a bloodless revolution

 

The Man Who Swears

 

There’s a man who swears he’s God,

But I’m pretty sure he’s not.

There’s a man who walks around

Like he owns the fucking lot.

 

There’s a man who takes his time,

From the hands of a booky (?) clock

You can hear him walk around

‘Tick tock, tick tock, tick tock.’

 

At first, it was easy

But now why’s it have to be so hard?

Heaven is a fire escape

You try to cling to in the dark

 

At first it was simple

But now it got to complicate

But the world just got a lovely time,

Or blame it all on my mistake!

 

Maybe I’ll find heaven

One day, after dark

Maybe you’ll find heaven is a place to part?

 

The Man Who Swears ii

 

"Oh, shit, I forgot the middle bit of The Man Who Swears… *random mumbling*"

 

Control the way we turn,

We are doing everything we can

We still can’t seem to switch it on.

And oh, my time ran out.

 

I am floating up beneath the clouds

Trying to turn it on, it on.

 

And oh,

It’s you, baby.

I’m so sorry.

Baby, I’d’ve done it, turning me on.

 

First Steps

 

Help me out, help me out

‘Cause I’m falling and I can’t get back.

And there isn’t any number I can call for that.

 

Oh, help me out, help me out

‘Cause I fall, and I was so scared

I know what was severed, and I’m rolling in

 

Even when the sun set

It burned my eyes

Even when the dark

Began to climb

 

And just because I roll the dice

And turned to worse

Together for the grace of God,

Dunno why

 

Loveless

 

Loveless,

Just those three tiny words.

I’m falling, falling, falling, (Chris stuffing up :shy:)

Falling, falling ‘till I’m in.

Until I started tearing in

I’m all alone, how long will it take?

Da da da da da da da

 

Goodbye and Goodnight

 

Look how far the river took us.

How far the river took my son.

But the boat’s gone ‘round the harbour,

And I gotta know the sinner

And I wait.

 

There’s a boat goin’ down the road and sea

A tumble will begin

It’s the world you’re living in.

 

The boat will sign the bottom,

And I hit down the bottom,

Oh, I can’t describe the state you put me in.

Oh, yeah.

 

And I’m so sorry,

I’ve been known to hurry

And baby I hope that I’m sorry

‘Cause tonight…

Bloodless Revolution

 

 

People wanna fight for fun

But what use's a battle when the war's already been won----> sure about this

People wanna break what's built

There's no use crying when the milk's already been spilled---->sure about this

Here's a needle, here's a thread

Sew yourself up, clear your head

Here's a needle, here's a thread

Oh no, I meant exactly what I said

 

You might find that you're useless

No better than a hole in the ground

You might find that you're useless

No better than a hole in the ground

 

Look at all the cavemen goin

Turning over to the show?

Ohhh

 

G....... run/running around?

Ohhh

The Fall of Man

 

Sleep on the ocean

Sleep on the sand

I’ve been very busy since the fall of man

Son of the devil

You won’t understand

Now come on, baby,

That's a sudden end

 

Speak of the devil

Inside my head

You’ve been very busy since the world's gonna end

Tired / Turned? of the sleeping/sev...?

The sun, the sand

Talk a little louder, I don't understand.

 

Gonna get the supper to the world tonight

.......??? I’m gonna fall asleep.

There’s a tiny little sin I've gotta do.

Got to say that I’m only holding up at night?

Turn with the flow, or this storm

 

There’s a world outside, that.....in

There’s a world outside, that...........in

There’s a world outside that won't let you in

 

Love, love got over that storm

Before you get somewhere/ to one?,

Oh, love got over that storm.

 

I've got a wife and kids, a boy named Jack.

I went out for a ride, and I never came back.

 

Though I defenetely still dont know a lot of them, some were wrong I think??:nice:.

BTW: Fixed up The Fall Of Man - at the end, the lyrics are wrong because they're a reference to a Bruce Springsteen song (pointed out by someone in the thread ages ago, which I missed).

 

I've got a wife and kids in Baltimore, Jack.

I went out for a ride, and I never came back.

 

Edited First Steps as well, the last two verses:

 

Even when the sun set

It burned my eyes

Even when the dark

Began to climb.

 

And just because I rolled a dice

It turned to worse

Together for the grace of God,

I don’t know why.

 

Makes more sense that way, and definitely sounds more accurate to me!

 

Anyone have any ideas on the third verse of The Fall Of Man? :bomb:

I think chris is singing at the end "Got a wife and kids in baltimore jack" instead of ... boy named jack
