I hold an image of the ashtray girl
As the cigarette burns on my chest
I wrote a poem that described her world
That put my friendship to the test.....
I hold an image of the ashtray girl
As the cigarette burns on my chest
I wrote a poem that described her world
That put my friendship to the test
And late at night

Placebo - This Picture
Placebo - Sleeping With Ghosts
The sea's evaporated
Though it comes as no surprise
These clouds we're seeing
Their explosions in the sky
It seems it's written
But we can't read between the line
Hush
It's okay
Dry your eye
Dry your eye
Soulmate dry your eye........
Placebo - Scared of Girls
An introverted kinda soul,
The earth did open,
swallow whole,
Careenin',
Careenin',
Careenin',
Careenin',
Her next of kin who lived in sin,
was asking god to let her in,
Placebo - Every You Every Me
Sucker love is heaven sent.
You pucker up, our passion's spent.
My hearts a tart, your body's rent.
My body's broken, yours is spent.
Carve your name into my arm.
Instead of stressed, I lie here charmed.
Cuz there's nothing else to do,
Every me and every you.
Sucker love, a box I choose.
Placebo - Bitter End
Since we're feeling so anesthetised
In our comfort zone
Reminds me of the second time
That I followed you home
We're running out of alibis
From the second of May
Reminds me of the summer time
On this winter's day
Placebo - Come Home
Stuck between the do or die, I feel emaciated.
Hard to breathe I try and try, I'll get asphyxiated.
Swinging from the tallest height, with nothing left to hold on to.
Every sky is blue, but not for me and you.
Come home, come home, come home, come home.
Glass and petrol vodka gin, it feels like breathing methane.
Throw yourself from skin to skin, and still it doesn't dull the pain.
Vanish like a lipstick trace, it always blows me away.
Every cloud is grey, with dreams of yesterday.
Placebo - 36 Degrees
We were tight, but it falls apart as silver turns to blue.
Waxing with a candlelight, and burning just for you.
Allocate your sentiment, and stick it in a box.
I've never been an extrovert, but i'm still breathing.
Someone tried to do me ache (it's what I'm afraid of)
With hindsight, I was more than blind, lost without a clue.
Thought I was getting carat gold, and what I got was you.
Stuck inside the circumstances, lonely at the top.
I've always been an introvert
Lyrics >> Placebo
Mew - Symmetry
I'm caught in the symmetry of your mind
But I'm not happier than you
I'm caught in the symmetry of your mind
But I'm not happier than you
Did I really see you
Or was it a dream?
Dreaming that it was seamless
Not a trace of wrong
Mew - Snow Brigade
And they want to bring out
The someone you want to know
Beneath the snow
Enable to bring out the something
You want to know
Beneath the snow
In winter you're an affliction
Mew - She Spider
After we go to sleep
Our sun rise
I will make it the truth
Of painfully helping me
Cover up things
I wish I never had found
Confident, tangled up
In a nice life
Put the spider in you
Mew - She Came Home For Christmas
Don't touch her there
She's blindfolded
She remembers on the bus
Into my heart
Don't remember
Like you left us
Without notice
Now you've come back
Like you left us
Mew - Eight Flew Over, One Was Destroyed
Halfway through
Flight there to
Where will you go?
Falling down
On the ground
Where will you go, now?
Do you remember
What made you fall?
And does it matter
Mew - Comforting Sounds
I don't feel alright
In spite of these comforting sounds you make
I don't feel alright
Because you make promises that you break
Into your house
Why don't we share
Our solitude?
Mew - King Christian
Self-deception, shadows are forming
Copenhagen, Saturday morning
1577, there was a born a king of
Architectural passion, conqueror and artist
Placed in dire peril, he would soon be victor
By his hammer land was flourishing
All I do is run tonight
Even twice as sweet but half as bright
I did not intend
To impersonate a friend
If I didn't know my luck
Listen to the clock's last ticking tock
I shall ascend at last
Like a question never asked
Does he not see the calm foreboding sea reflecting
She who he has forsaken, Queen Anna?
All I do is run tonight
Even twice as sweet but half as bright
I did not intend
To impersonate a friend
I could not remain your friend
Lest it would have made a difference then
Could it possibly?
Well, no, thanks to you and me
In the water he could not see her
His disorder made their love splinter fast
All I do is run tonight
Even twice as sweet but half as bright
I did not intend
To impersonate a friend
If I didn't know my luck
Listen to the clock's last ticking tock
I shall ascend at last
Like a question never asked
Far away, moving faster every day
Though I did not lose myself
I was hurt and overwhelmed
Once again, we're triumphant in the end
There'll be tears to form a lake
Even kings can make mistakes
Mew - Her Voice Is Beyond Her Years
If I could look you in the eyes
If I could look you in the eyes
Her voice is beyond her years
She's trying to move you
She did not know where to go
And soon it was dark
If I could look you in the eyes
If I could look you in the eyes
Mew - Behind The Drapes
All of us now
Bent as we fall
To amorous light
We call out
Why are we so alone
Even with company?
If not the moon
Will us guide
Will then the street light?

Mew - Am I Wry? No
Farah, now that you're here
Can you tell me
Exactly how I should have done?
Farah drives with her eyes closed
Do you ever
Inflict unwanted memories?
I know you
And I know it won't take you long
To make me smile.
Mew - 156
From my boat
I can see your house
And when the lights are on
I can watch you move
Hear the wind
Whispering your name
Twice the encouragement
Of the real you
