Red Carpet Massacre Lyrics

 

The Valley

These are days of hit and run
In the stream with everyone
These are moments of our lives
On a wandering river
Going on together
Many journeys to arrive

I been walking through the valley
Through the tall grass and the shadows
And I feel it, I can see it,
Yes I need it, I believe it

Through the city and the towers turning minutes into hours
And I feel it, I can see it,
Yes I need it, I believe it

When I think I'm being strong and I lose direction
Then a life starts looking mischievous
Finding revelation out of desperation
Always streatching time but it's never long enough

You think you're happy, think you're free
But maybe we're just comfortably decieved

But I'm running through the valley
Through the tall grass and the shadows
And I feel it, I can see it,
Yes I need it, I believe it

Through the city and the towers turning minutes into hours
And I feel it, I can see it,
Yes I need it, I believe it

But I'm running through the valley
Through the tall grass and the shadows
And I feel it, I can see it,
Yes, I need it, I believe it

Through the city and the towers turning minutes into hours
And I feel it, I can see it
Yes, I need it, I believe it

Red Carpet Massacre

Dark sun rose on the ridge cut clear across the sky
As good a day as any to die
No reservation Madam no reason to know why
Running late stiletto heels
Strike the crew, send up the wheels
You spend a life in preparation for this day
Breathe in the air it's loaded with fame
Check out those weapons sister before you hit the fray
String o pearls -V- ditzy gems
Enter the battle of the lenses

Red carpet massacre
Don't want to hassle ya
Red carpet massacre
Death squad paparazzi ah!
Red carpet massacre
It's going to mess with ya
We're in business - you're on the hit-list

There's not so many now, still standing on their feet
The knives are out and singing so sweet
Engaged with sharper minds that cut you when you meet
Ain't the place to mess around
When someone wants to take you down

Maybe you think you're above this
But baby we know that you love it
Baby you know where to shove it
Apply your lipstick, for dying in public

Red carpet massacre
Don't want to hassle ya
Red carpet massacre
Death squad paparazzi ah!
Red carpet massacre
Don't wanna mess with ya
Now it's time next in line
We're so busted - done and dusted

Nite Runner feat. Justin Timberlake & Timbaland

You're nocturnal only come out at night
And I'm learning all the ways you wanna ride
'coz you're on the roam but not until the darkness arrives
And I'm certain I'll catch up to you one of these times baby, oh...

Falling Down feat. Justin Timberlake

Once was a man who consumed his place and time
He thought nothing could touch him
But here and now it's a different story-line
Like the straw he is clutching

Why has the sky turned grey?
Hard to my face and cold on my shoulder
And why has my life gone astray?
Scarred by disgrace I know that it's over

Because I'm falling down
With people standing 'round
But before I hit the ground
Is there time could I find
Someone out there to help me?

Howl at the wind rushing past my lonely head
Caught in silent slow-motion
How I wish it was somebody else instead
Howling at all this corrosion

Why did the luck run dry?
Laugh in my face so pleased to desert me
Why do the cruel barbs fly?
Now when disgrace can no longer hurt me

Because I'm falling down
With people standing 'round
But before I hit the ground
Is there time could I find
Someone out there to help me?
You see I'm falling down
With people standing 'round
But before I hit the ground
Is there time could I find
Someone out there to help me?

Why?

Because I'm falling down
With people standing 'round
But before I hit the ground
Is there time could I find
Someone out there to help me?

You see I'm falling down
With people standing 'round
But before I hit the ground
Is there time could I find
Someone out there to help me?

I don't know
Where to go
I don't know
Here I go

Box Full O' Honey

At the sharp end of the view
The edge of me and you
In all good sense dare tread no further
And as the ghost will shiver trees
How I'm trembling on my knees
But I'm still drawn on by the the murmur

Are you laughing at me now?
In my circumstance
When still I wear your crown
My life's penitence for what?
What's so funny
A box full o' honey

What I thought a pretty tune
Was howling at the moon
To keep me company this evening
It's so lonely in the dirt
A-scratching at the hurt
That I so generously did leave you

Are you laughing at me now?
In my circumstance
When still I wear your crown
Some cruel penitence for what?
What's so funny?
Box full o' honey

Yeah...

Is she flirting with me now?
Ooh, is she dallying with me now?
Ooh, are you flirting with me now?
You'll always be my queen of tumbledown
Miss melancholy

Are you laughing at me now?
In my circumstance
When still I wear your crown
And my life's a penitence for what?
What's so funny?
Ain't it funny
A box full o' honey

Skin Divers feat. Timbaland

Walking under skies, waiting for the fall
Meet me at the cornershop I show you it all
Free you of your mind, something you won't find
In the West End pages with your Google-dirty fingers

It's a skin dive
In deep, silence, we are... going underwater
It's a lifeline
Teardrop, bullets, all night... dip into the water

Baby, that's what it feels like when you come up for air
When you come up for air
You feel brand new, when you come up for air
When you come up for air

That's what it feels like when you come up for air
When you come up for air
You feel brand new, when you come up for air
When you come up for air

Wipe us off the face of the human race
Whichever way you look it's indisposed or disgraced
Fighting on the shore, the hoi polloi want more
Howling bloody murder but it's nothing,

just a murmur in your skin dive
In deep, silence, we are... going underwater
It's a lifeline
Teardrop, bullets, all night... slip into the water

Baby, that's what it feels like when you come up for air
When you come up for air
You feel brand new, when you come up for air
When you come up for air

That's what it feels like when you come up for air
When you come up for air
You feel brand new, when you come up for air
When you come up for air

A blushing rose is torn from these sugar walls
I misplaced my future, could I please borrow yours?
Paint it opalscene, you know what I mean
Anything you want to be,
The only thing you want from me is...

Skin dive
In deep, silence, we are... going underwater
It's a lifeline
Teardrop, bullets, all night... going South Dakota

Baby girl, you swimmin'
(Oh, woh) A little too deep (oh, woh)
So deep (oh, woh) that I think you might hit a reef (oh, woh)
I think you're low on oxygen (oh, woh)
And your tube got a leak (oh, woh)
Baby girl, swim to the top (oh, woh)
Grab my hand and hold me and breathe (oh, woh)

Baby, that's what it feels like when you come up for air
When you come up for air
You feel brand new when you come up for air
When you come up for air

That's what it feels like when you come up for air
When you come up for air
You feel brand new, when you come up for air
When you come up for air

Tempted

Jupiter rising through the flow
You require a little bit more
To excite you to go
Getting busy on the floor
All about the way you move it
When you really got to prove it
Finally you will know
What it is you're turning on

That is gonna tempt you - oh, yeah
Like you know it's meant to - oh, yeah
Devil gonna tempt you - oh, yeah
How much do you want to?
Oh, oh!

Give thanks to London coming undone
When you ride the underground
Sonic islands breaking silence
Got your party started now
And you love the way you move it
When you really got to prove it
Finally it's what you do
What it is you're turning on

That is gonna tempt you - oh, yeah
Like you know it's meant to - oh, yeah
Devil gonna tempt you - oh, yeah
How much do you want to?
Oh, oh!

That is gonna tempt you - oh, yeah
Like you know it's meant to - oh, yeah
Devil gonna tempt you - oh, yeah
Devil gonna tempt you - oh, yeah
If you want to know? Oh, yeah
Do you want to know - oh, yeah

What it is you're turning on? Oh, yeah
What it is you're turning on
If you want to know what it is you're turning on
Do you want to know what it is you're turning on

Tricked Out

Instrumental

Zoom In

Stood on the line
You understand I been waiting forever
Come rain come shine
In the wind in the snow in the filthy weather

You got it all worked it
Yeah but it knocks you out
I'm zooming in

Now she arrives
In a flaming crash like a falling star
Heading straight for the dive
Gonna make some cash with that avatar

You got it all worked out
I know you know I don't want you to go
Yeah but it knocks you out
I'm zooming in on you on you

Don't look back we're an art attack
Don't look back we're an art attack
Don't look back we're an art attack
Don't look back we're an art attack

You got it all worked out
Yeah but it knocks you out

We're not alone
In this Second Life there are millions like us
Right here in the stones in the air too bright
All the new insiders

You got it all worked out
I know you know I don't want you to go
yeah but it knocks you out
I'm zooming in on you on you

Naaa-na-na-na-na-na-na
I know you know I don't want you to go
Naaa-na-na-na-na-na-na
I'm zooming in and out on you

I'm zooming in and out on you
I'm zooming in and out on you

Naaa-na-na-na-na-na-na
I know you know I don't want you to go
Naaa-na-na-na-na-na-na
I'm zooming in and out on you

She's Too Much

She's gentle to the touch
She's everything head-first
So happy to be causing trouble
Sometimes the pressure gets too much
And you think she's going to burst
And shatter like a Christmas baubel

I'll be there when the world is coming down upon her
When she's scared I'll be there fighting in her corner

She cries when she's alone
For all life's little knocks
Everything that's supposed to make us tougher
Thinking it doesn't really show
But I know how she hurts
And I can't bear to see her suffer

I'll be there when the world is coming down upon her
When she's scared I'll be there fighting in her corner
I'll be there when the walls are closing to surround her
In the air as she falls with my arms around her

Holding on I'm looking out for her thin skin
Because she's everything - and I don't think she knows
She is such - a gentle touch
She's too much - the gentle touch

She likes to catch the sun
Plays with it like a ball
And never mind whatever keeps it burning
Someday she might just be the one
Whose going to save us all
If this apocalypse is coming

I'll be there when the world is coming down upon her
When she's scared I'll be there fighting in her corner
I'll be there when the walls are closing to surround her
In the air as she falls with my arms around her

Holding on I'm looking out for her thin skin
Because she's everything - but I don't think she knows
She is such - a gentle touch - I don't think she knows
She's too much - the gentle touch - I don't think she knows
She is such - a gentle touch - I don't think she knows
She's too much - the gentle touch

Dirty Great Monster

There's a dirty great monster in this house
We pretend that it's not there
And there's no escape from it's grip
But nobody seems to care

Do you ever wonder
About the days when we were staright?
But Daddy got the hunger
So much to hide
We learned to lie

So watch yourself in the hallway
You're not supposed to know
'coz we're all afraid of each other
We're the victims in this show

Well do you ever wonder
About the days when we were straight
When Daddy got the hunger
Too much to hide
We learned to lie

Silently out numbered
We made mistakes when we were straight
Now we're all going under - oh, oh
So with a sigh we say good-bye

Last Man Standing

 

Now an unexpected peace comes to the day
As the howling din of fighting dies away
When the hanging dust is clearing from the air
You can just make out a lonely figure there

He's the last man standing on the track
He does not look down he does not look back
He's the last man standing on the track
You can't hold him down you can't hold him back

The last man standing on the track
He does not look down he does not look back
He's the last man standing on the track
You can't hold him down you can't hold him back

He is sorry for the wrong that he has done
And he cries out for the anger borne so long
All the cuts and bruises suffered in whose name?
Oh, but now is not the time to face his shame

He's the last man standing on the track
He does not look down he does not look back
He's the last man standing on the track
You can't hold him down you can't hold him back

He's the last man standing on the track
He does not look down he does not look back
He's the last man standing on the track
You can't hold him down you can't hold him back
