歌词：Brett Anderson［Wilderness］

　A Different Place We sat under London skies on A perfect June day. I touched her hand And whispered our names. And all of the birds flew by and The clouds blow away The rose oil in her hair And her infinite craze. These are the thoughts That take me To a different place. There are the words That take me To a different place. And I gave her A rose from my garden And the petals Blow away. They look like confetti On her Beautiful face. These are the thoughts That take me To a different place. There are the words That take me To a different place. These are the thoughts That take me To a different place. There are the words That take me To a different place. The Empress Didn’t I try To love her? Didn’t I paint Pictures of her? Didn’t I try To change? I shouldn’t have bothered. Didn’t I buy The ocean for her? Didn’t I wear The colour (?) Didn’t I feel The wind? Didn’t I plead? She is strange And sorrow. She is Like cherry blossom. She is The Empress. Didn’t I kneel Before her? Didn’t I follow Her orders? Didn’t I clean Her shit? Didn’t I fall? Didn’t I climb The ladder? Didn’t I smile For the cameras? Didn’t I feel The wind? Didn’t I plead? (? bleed) She is strange And sorrow. She is Like cherry blossom. She is The Empress. She is strange And sorrow. With lips Like cherry blossom. She is The Empress. Clowns Take a look at us Hate where there was lust A drip like honey. Lust don’t mean a thing. When all we do is shout and scream, It’s almost funny We're like clowns, Tumbled into town now, And love is on its way down now. It’s such a lonely sound. Mouths that once we exchanged, Kisses in the rain Are full of hate now. It all seem so absurd, When every sentence and every word Is so painful. Clowns, Tumbling into town now, And love is on its way down now. It’s such a lonely sound. Clowns, Faces with painted frowns now. Sat on a merry go round now Such a lonely sound. It’s such a lonely sound. It’s such a lonely sound. It’s such a lonely sound. It’s such a lonely sound. It’s such a lonely sound. It’s such a lonely sound. Chinese Whispers Don’t tap against my window. Don’t listen at my wall. Don’t ask for information. As the answer's always no. Collect me From the station. The blank departure Board. We'll talk in Chinese whispers. While the snow Begins to fall Painting Easter(?) With the cold(?) I don’t need you But I want you. I don’t want you But I need you. Ho-ho-ho. Ho-ho-ho. There is blossom In the garden On the magnolia Tree. The ivies are Taking over Where you planted Rosemary Where you planted Rosemary. I don’t need you But I want you. I don’t want you But I need you. Ho-ho-ho Ho-ho-ho Ho-ho-ho Ho-ho-ho Ho-ho-ho Blessed With your mauve Pillow. And your laddered tights With your neat Covers. And your midnight Eyes. With your sisters in The suburbs. With your ballerina’s Grace. You smile and I am blessed. You laugh and I am possessed. You climb The clouds caress. Yes, I am blessed. Yes, I am blessed. With your grey Denim. And your hostile(?) life. With your teeth Missing. And you mystic eyes. With your tenderness And trouble. With your son Against your breast. You smile and I am blessed. You laugh and I am possessed. You climb The clouds caress. Yes, I am blessed. Yes, I am blessed. You smile and I am blessed. You lie and I am dust. And you ride London’s wilderness. Yes, I am blessed. Yes, I am blessed. Funeral Mantra We light the oil And touch the beads. The naked feel Of rosary . The fall of morning On the lands. The smell of incense On our hands. We kneel Before the open grave. And light The candles with our pain. Because all things Will change. Because they stay the same We live again We learn The consequence of sin. We roll our eyes And touch our skin. We feel Eternity expressed With every word, With every breath. We kneel Before the open grave. And light The candles with our pain. Because the seasons Change. Because they stay the same We live again. We kneel Before the open grave. And light The candles with our pain. Because all things Will change. And as your God explains, We live again. We live again. We live again. We live again. Back To You You flick your mane, And click your fingers again, And from your bed You call my name. And like a fool I run right back to you And dance along To your latest tune. And when the land slides And when the planets die, That’s when I come back, When I come back to you. And when the sun cools And when the stars fall That’s when I come back, When I come back to you. You roll those eyes And trap my hand in your thighs. It’s slavery but in disguise. And like a fool I run right back to you. There is nothing else That I can do. And when the pigs fly And when the planets die. That’s when I come back, When I come back to you. And when the sun cools And when the stars fall That’s when I come back, When I come back to you. And when the war machines Rust eternally That’s when I come back, When I come back to you. And when your heart bleeds For a love that’s dead like me, That’s when I come back, When I come back to you. Knife Edge I think I’ll call her number Just one time. If she calls back, I don’t care. She won’t mind. I think I kept her details In my phone. If I’ve lost them I don’t mind. She won’t know. I think I’ll call her. Make amends Perfect strangers On a knife edge. All it takes is One excuse To end the date. Once the teams Were introduced, Slipped away. I think I’ll call her. Make amends Perfect strangers On a knife edge. I think I miss her And her pets Perfect strangers On a knife edge. P Marius As I sit and watch The summertime, And the shadow of The cranes. By the branches of The cedar tree And the beating of The day. You are the rose Within my soul. You are the reason Why the wind blows. By the meeting of The roads I will hold you In my arms again. And we'll sit under The cedar tree As the city Fades away. By the places Where the blossom falls And the shadow of The cranes. You are the rose Within my soul, You are the reason Why the rain flows. By the meeting of The roads I will hold you In my arms again. By the branches of The cedar tree, There's a bench Beside the lake. Take the bridge Over the Serpentine, And I'll see you Once again.
