Alternate U

My girl was abducted by aliens
they took her body into the night
she tried to tell but they all laughed
she said it happened late in the night
she awoke to a strange sound
all alone by her campsite
she was too afraid to open up her eyes
(Pre-Chorus):
you don't even know me
but you try to control me
you don't wanna know me
you try to control me
(Chorus):
How could it be
that there's millions of sunshines
and only one of us?
I believe
in alternate universes
with alternate you's and me's
I see somethin' in the sky
and it wasn't no satellite
it wasn't no aeroplane
unless the government is hidin' somethin'
it moved in unusual ways
and it looked unusual too
it disappeared into the atmosphere
it made me wonder
you wondered too
(Pre-Chorus)
(Chorus)

Please You
02:16

|
I'm all alone
no one to own but me
the seeds they are sown
they're grown' in the field
don't take it wrong
if i don't care to come along
my will is my own
i'm growin' in the field
(Bridge):
I can't please you
you can't please me
there's no pleasin' til we please ourselves
I can't love you
you can't love me
there's no love until we love ourselves

Fraud
03:04
|

|
I'm a broken record
I'm trying to play
I'm in the mender's office
but she's on holidays
the mender
she's no mender
she's a poet
and a saint
and the preacher
he's no preacher
he was told to be that way
(Chorus):
I'm a fraud
you're a fraud
wanna be whole
but we're not
the grocer
he's no grocer
he's an artist
and a lover
and the waiter
he's no waiter
he's an actor
undercover
the lawyer
he's no lawyer
he was pressured
by his dad
and the farmer
he's no farmer
it was all he ever had
(Chorus)

Wild Horses
03:30
|
|||
|
I wake up, but I don't want to
I get up, but I don't want to
There's voices in my head
choices in my head
wild horses in my head
Horses
Horses in my head
Horses
Wild Horses in my head
I go out, but I don't want to
talk about, but I don't want to
Go out or stay inside
no safe place for me to hide
from the voices in my head
choices
Horses in my head
Horses
Wild horses in my head
Watch 'em run
Watch 'em run
away
Trees in the city
still look pretty
matches on the ground
a spark could not be found
there's people in the bar
oblivious
Horses in my head
Horses in my head
who watch 'em run
who watch 'em run
away
who watch 'em run?
who watch 'em run?
ooo watch 'em run
run, run away.

Sun Tries
02:40
|
|||
|
It seems you got a lot of friends
i hope you got
love, love, love, love
we mix together like oilsands
and the music pounds
to the beating of a drum
you're livin' in a cloud of smoke
and any moment
you're gonna choke
but the people are gettin smart
common knowledge will soon
be of the heart
(Chorus):
and the sun tries to shine
little by little
it'll take some time
I feel just like a new machine
I've got a job and a
dream dream dream
and i trust its gonna come my way
so i work so hard
through the night
and through the day
Well, you think I'm on a hippie trip
laugh at me
but you can't stop it
the people are changing fast
and your old ways
will soon be in the past
(Chorus)

Dreamer (Ooo-Wah)
02:49
|
|||
|
He was a dreamer
a real feeler
cautious observer
truth-seeker
it was a lonely night
but he was doin' alright
She was a shaker
a heartbreaker
a freebird
and a maker
it was a lonely night
but she was doin' just fine
(Chorus):
Ooo-wah (5x)
they shared a fire
without desire
talked all night
and took it higher
it was a magical night
you know it felt so right
they took it slow now
just so they'd know now
she used to run
he needed no one
but they were friends before lovers
sister and brother
(Break):
Oh turn it, turn it
you turn me on
aw turn it, turn it
you got to turn it
you got to turn it
you got to turn it
you got to turn it
(Chorus)
friends before lovers
sister and brother
friends before lovers
sister and brother

How Come
03:42

If you could be just who you wanna be
then how come
it could take so long
how come
it could take so long
how come
If you could see just what you wanna see
then how come
it could take so long
how come
it could take so long
how come
(Chorus):
You gotta think
you gotta feel
you gotta know
just what you need
you gotta love
you gotta give
you gotta thank
to get watcha need
it used to be i had everything i need
then how come
it can be so damn hard
how come
it could be so damn hard
how come
used to be i felt so free
then how come
i don't feel that way
how come
i don't live that way
how come
(Chorus)
(Break):
like the sun hangin' over my head
you don't belong to me
no you don't belong to me
like the moon hanging over my head
you don't belong to me but i belong to you
you get what you need
