    Biko


    September '77
    Port Elizabeth weather fine
    It was business as usual
    In police room 619
    Oh Biko, Biko, because Biko
    Oh Biko, Biko, because Biko
    Yihla Moja, Yihla Moja
    -The man is dead

    When I try to sleep at night
    I can only dream in red
    The outside world is black and white
    With only one colour dead
    Oh Biko, Biko, because Biko
    Oh Biko, Biko, because Biko
    Yihla Moja, Yihla Moja
    -The man is dead

    You can blow out a candle
    But you can't blow out a fire
    Once the flames begin to catch
    The wind will blow it higher
    Oh Biko, Biko, because Biko
    Yihla Moja, Yihla Moja
    -The man is dead

    And the eyes of the world are
    watching now
    watching now

    Don't Give Up



    in this proud land we grew up strong
    we were wanted all along
    I was taught to fight, taught to win
    I never thought I could fail

    no fight left or so it seems
    I am a man whose dreams have all deserted
    I've changed my face, I've changed my name
    but no one wants you when you lose

    don't give up
    'cos you have friends
    don't give up
    you're not beaten yet
    don't give up
    I know you can make it good

    though I saw it all around
    never thought I could be affected
    thought that we'd be the last to go
    it is so strange the way things turn

    drove the night toward my home
    the place that I was born, on the lakeside
    as daylight broke, I saw the earth
    the trees had burned down to the ground

    don't give up
    you still have us
    don't give up
    we don't need much of anything
    don't give up
    'cause somewhere there's a place
    where we belong

    rest your head
    you worry too much
    it's going to be alright
    when times get rough
    you can fall back on us
    don't give up
    please don't give up

    'got to walk out of here
    I can't take anymore
    going to stand on that bridge
    keep my eyes down below
    whatever may come
    and whatever may go
    that river's flowing
    that river's flowing

    moved on to another town
    tried hard to settle down
    for every job, so many men
    so many men no-one needs

    don't give up
    'cause you have friends
    don't give up
    you're not the only one
    don't give up
    no reason to be ashamed
    don't give up
    you still have us
    don't give up now
    we're proud of who you are
    don't give up
    you know it's never been easy
    don't give up
    'cause I believe there's the a place
    there's a place where we belong

    Come Talk To Me

    The wretched desert takes it's form,
    The jackal proud and tight,
    In search of you I feel my way,
    Through slowest heaving night
    Whatever fear invents,
    I swear it make no sense
    I reach out through the border fence
    Come down, come talk to me

    In the swirling curling storm of desire
    Unuttered words hold fast
    With reptile tongue the lightning lashes
    Towers built to last
    Darkness creeps in like a thief
    And offers no relief
    Why are you shaking like a leaf?
    Come on, come talk to me

    Ah please talk to me
    Won't you please talk to me
    We can unlock this misery
    Come on, come talk to me

    I did not come to steal
    This all is so unreal
    Can't you show me how you feel
    Come on, come talk to me

    Come talk to me, come talk to me

    The earthly power sucks shadowed milk,
    From sleepy tears undone
    From nippled skin as smooth as silk,
    The bugles blow as one
    You lie there with your eyes half closed,
    Like there's noone there at all
    There's a tension pulling on your face
    Come on, come talk to me

    Won't you please talk to me
    If you'd just talk to me
    Unblock this misery
    If you'd only talk to me
    Don't you ever change your mind
    Now your future's so defined
    And you act so deaf so blind
    Come on, come talk to me
    Come talk to me, come talk to me

    I can imagine the moment
    Breaking out through the silence
    All the things that we both might say
    And the heart it will not be denied
    'Til we're both on the same damn side
    All the barriers blown away

    I said please talk to me
    Won't you please come talk to me
    Just like it used to be
    Come on, come talk to me
    I did not come to steal
    This all is so unreal
    Can you show me how you feel now
    Come on, come talk to me
    Come talk to me, come talk to me

    I said please talk to me
    If you'd just talk to me
    Unblock this misery
    If you'd only talk to me
    Don't you ever change your mind
    Now your future's so defined
    And you act so deaf so blind
    Come on, come talk to me
    Come talk to me, come talk to me

    Sky Blue

    Lost my time lost my place in
    Sky blue
    Those two blue eyes light your face in
    Sky blue
    I know how to fly, i know how to drown in
    Sky blue

    Warm wind blowing over the earth
    Sky blue
    I sing through the land, the land sings through me
    Sky blue
    Reaching into the deepest shade of
    Sky blue

    Sky blue
    So tired of all this travelling
    So many miles away from home
    I keep moving to be stable
    Free to wander, free to roam

    Train pulled out said my goodbyes
    Sky blue
    Back on the road alone with the sky
    Sky blue
    There's a presence here no one denies
    Sky blue

    Sky blue
    So tired of all this travelling
    So many miles away from home
    I keep moving to be stable
    Free to wander, free to roam

    I can hear the same voice calling
    Crying out, from my heart
    And that cry, what a cry
    What a cry, it's going to be
    If I can stop to let it out, oh.

    Secret World

    I stood in this sunsheltered place
    'Til I could see the face behind the face
    All that had gone before had left no trace

    Down by the railway siding
    In our secret world, we were colliding
    All the places we were hiding love
    What was it we were thinking of?

    So I watch you wash your hair
    Underwater, unaware
    And the plane flies through the air
    Did you think you didn't have to choose it
    That I alone could win or lose it
    In all the places we were hiding love
    What was it we were thinking of?

    In this house of make believe
    Divided in two, like Adam and Eve
    You put out and I recieve

    Down by the railway siding
    In our secret world, we were colliding
    In all the places we were hiding love
    What was it we were thinking of?

    Oh the wheel is turning spinning round and round
    And the house is crubling but the stairways stand

    With no guilt and no shame, no sorrow or blame
    Whatever it is, we are all the same

    Making it up in our secret world [x3]
    Shaking it up
    Breaking it up
    Making it up in our secret world

    Seeing things that were not there
    On a wing on a prayer
    In this state of disrepair

    Shh, listen...

    No Way Out

    saw a group of people forming
    round a figure lying down
    and someone runs to make a phone call
    and the man kneels on the ground
    the man kneels on the ground
    theres a tightening in my chest
    i know that Im drawn in
    oh god let it not be you

    dont leave us
    dont leave like this
    dont leave me here again
    im not quitting on you
    no one else
    youre not quitting on us
    no running out

    the colour in your shirt is darkening,
    against the paleness of your skin
    i remember how you held the goldfish
    swimming around in a plastic bag
    swimming around in a plastic bag

    you held it up so high
    in the bright lights of the fair
    it slipped and fell
    we looked everywhere

    dont leave us (your eyes are bright, your blood is warm)
    dont leave like this (your heart is strong, youre holding on)
    dont leave me here again (i feel your pulse, i hold your hand)
    im not quitting on you
    theres no one else
    youre not quitting on us
    theres no way out
    no way out

    dont leave us
    dont leave like this
    dont leave me here again (i feel your pulse, i hold your hand)
    im not quitting on you
    theres no one else
    youre not quitting on us
    no running away no way out

    Solsbury Hill

    Climbing up on Solsbury Hill
    I could see the city light
    Wind was blowing, time stood still
    Eagle flew out of the night
    He was something to observe
    Came in close, I heard a voice
    Standing stretching every nerve
    Had to listen had no choice
    I did not believe the information
    [I] just had to trust imagination
    My heart going boom boom boom
    "Son," he said "Grab your things,
    I've come to take you home."

    To keepin' silence I resigned
    My friends would think I was a nut
    Turning water into wine
    Open doors would soon be shut
    So I went from day to day
    Tho' my life was in a rut
    "Till I thought of what I'd say
    Which connection I should cut
    I was feeling part of the scenery
    I walked right out of the machinery
    My heart going boom boom boom
    "Hey" he said "Grab your things
    I've come to take you home."
    <Back home.>

    When illusion spin her net
    I'm never where I want to be
    And liberty she pirouette
    When I think that I am free
    Watched by empty silhouettes
    Who close their eyes but still can see
    No on taught them etiquette
    I will show another me
    Today I don't need a replacement
    I'll tell them what the smile on my face meant
    My heart going boom boom boom
    "Hey" I said "You can keep my things,
    they've come to take me home."

    Shaking The Tree

    Souma yergon, sou nou yergon, we are shakin the tree
    Souma yergon, sou nou yergon, we are shakin the tree

    Waiting your time, dreaming of a better life
    Waiting your time, youre more than just a wife
    You dont want to do what your mother has done
    She has done
    This is your life, this new life has begun
    Its your day - a womans day
    Its your day - a womans day

    Turning the tide, you are on the incoming wave
    Turning the tide, you know you are nobodys slave
    [ 1989 version - find your brothers and sisters ]
    [ 1990 version - find your sisters and brothers ]
    Who can hear all the truth in what you say
    They can support you when youre on your way
    Its your day - a womans day
    Its your day - a womans day

    Souma yergon, sou nou yergon, we are shakin the tree
    Souma yergon, sou nou yergon, we are shakin the tree
    Souma yergon, sou nou yergon, we are shakin the tree

    [ extra lyrics from 1989 12 remix ]

    Theres nothing to gain when theres nothing to be lost
    Theres nothing to gain if you stay behind and count the cost
    Make the decision that you can be who you can be
    You can be
    Tasting the fruit come to the liberty tree
    Its your day - a womans day
    Its your day - a womans day

    [ end of extra lyrics from 12 remix ]

    Changing your ways, changing those surrounding you
    Changing your ways, more than any man can do
    Open your heart, show him the anger and pain, so you heal
    Maybe hes looking for his womanly side, let him feel

    You had to be so strong
    And you do nothing wrong
    Nothing wrong at all
    Were gonna to break it down
    We have to shake it down
    Shake it all around

    Souma yergon, sou nou yergon, we are shakin the tree
    Souma yergon, sou nou yergon, we are shakin the tree
    Souma yergon, sou nou yergon, we are shakin the tree

    Washing Of The Water

    River, river carry me on
    Living river carry me on
    River, river carry me on
    To the place where I come from

    So deep, so wide, will you take me on your back for a ride
    If I should fall, would you swallow me deep inside

    River, show me how to float
    I feel like I'm sinking down
    Thought that I could get along
    But here in this water
    My feet won't touch the ground
    I need something to turn myself around

    Going away, away towards the sea
    River deep, can you lift up and carry me
    Oh roll on though the heartland
    'Til the sun has left the sky
    River, river carry me high
    'Til the washing of the water make it all alright
    Let your waters reach me like she reached me tonight

    Letting go, it's so hard
    The way it's hurting now
    To get this love untied
    So tough to stay with thing
    'Cause if I follow through
    I face what I denied
    I get those hooks out of me
    And I take out the hooks that I sunk deep in your side
    Kill that fear of emptiness, loneliness I hide

    River, oh river, river running deep
    Bring me something that will let me get to sleep
    In the washing of the water will you take it all away
    Bring me something to take this pain away

    Blood of Eden

    I caught sight of my reflection
    I caught it in the window
    I saw the darkness in my heart
    I saw the signs of my undoing
    They had been there from the start

    And the darkness still has work to do
    The knotted chord's untying
    The heated and the holy
    Oh they're sitting there on high
    So secure with everything they're buying

    In the blood of Eden lie the woman and the man
    With the man in the woman and the woman in the man
    In the blood of Eden lie the woman and the man
    We wanted the the union oh the union of the woman, the woman and the man

    My grip is surely slipping
    I think I've lost my hold
    Yes I think I've lost my hold
    I cannot get insurance any more
    They don't take credit, only gold
    Is that a dagger or a crucifix I see
    You hold so tightly in your hand
    And all the while the distance grows between you and me
    I do not understand



    In the blood of Eden lie the woman and the man
    With the man in the woman and the woman in the man
    In the blood of Eden lie the woman and the man
    We wanted the the union oh the union of the woman, the woman and the man

    At my request you take me in
    In that tenderness I am floating away
    No certainty, nothing to rely on
    Holding still for a moment
    What a moment this is
    Oh for a moment of forgetting
    A moment of bliss
    Oh....

    I can hear the distant thunder
    Of a million unheard souls
    Of a million unheard souls
    Watch each one reach for creature comfort
    For the filling of their holes

    In the blood of Eden lie the woman and the man
    I feel the man in the woman and the woman in the man
    In the blood of Eden lie the woman and the man
    I feel the man in the woman and the woman in the man

    In the blood of Eden we have done everything we can
    In the blood of Eden, so we end as we began
    With the man in the woman and the woman in the man
    It was all for the union, oh the union of the woman, the woman and the man

    Steam

    Stand Back!
    Stand Back!

    What are those dogs doing sniffing at my feet
    They're on to something, picking up
    Picking up this heat, this heat

    {Chorus 1:}
    Give me steam
    And how you feel to make it real
    Real as anything you've seen
    Get a life with this dreamer's dream

    You know your culture from your trash
    You know your plastic from your cash
    When I lose sight of the track
    You know the way back
    But I know you

    You know your stripper from your paint
    You know your sinner from your saint
    Whenever heaven's doors are shut
    You kick them open but
    I know you

    {Chorus 2:}
    Give me steam
    And how you feel to make it real
    Real as any place you've been
    Get a life with the dreamer's dream

    Stand back!
    Stand back!
    Can't you see I've lost control I'm getting indiscreet
    You're moving in so close 'til I'm picking up
    Picking up this heat, this heat

    [Chorus 1]

    You know your green from your red
    You know the quick from the dead
    So much better than the rest
    You think you've been blessed
    But I know you

    You know your ladder from your snake
    You know the throttle from the brake
    You know your straight line from a curve
    You've got a lot of nerve
    But I know you

    [Chorus 2]

    Everybody nosedive
    Hold your breath, count to five
    Backslap, boobytrap,
    Cover it up in bubblewrap
    Room shake, earthquake
    Find a way to stay awake
    It's going to blow, it's going to break
    This is more than I can take

    Oh yeah, I need steam
    Feel the steam all around me
    Ah you're turning up the heat
    When I start to dream aloud
    See you move your hands and feet
    Won't you step into this cloud of steam
    This steam

    [Chorus 1]

    Help me yeah
    Ready to steam out the log jam
    Stir crazy from the freezer to the boil
    Water's bubbling, it's b..b..b..bubbling
    bubbling [x4]
    like it's coming to a boil
    Give me steam, lady
    Give me steam around me now
    Aah coming alive [x2]
    Said give me some steam

    Red Rain

    Red rain is coming down
    Red rain
    Red rain is pouring down
    Pouring down all over me

    I am standing up at the waters edge in my dream
    I cannot make a single sound as you scream
    It cant be that cold, the ground is still warm to touch
    This place is so quiet, sensing that storm

    Red rain is coming down
    Red rain
    Red rain is pouring down
    Pouring down all over me

    Well I've seen them buried in a sheltered place in this town
    They tell you that this rain can sting, and look down
    There is no blood around see no sign of pain
    Hay ay ay no pain
    Seeing no red at all, see no rain

    Red rain is coming down
    Red rain
    Red rain is pouring down
    Pouring down all over me

    Red rain
    Putting the pressure on much harder now
    To return again and again
    Just let the red rain splash you
    Let the rain fall on your skin
    I come to you defences down
    With the trust of a child

    Red rain is coming down
    Red rain
    Red rain is pouring down
    Pouring down all over me
    And I cant watch any more
    No more denial
    It's so hard to lay down in all of this
    Red rain is coming down
    Red rain is pouring down
    Red rain is coming down all over me
    I see it
    Red rain is coming down
    Red rain is pouring down
    Red rain is coming down all over me
    I'm bathing in it
    Red rain coming down
    Red rain is coming down
    Red rain is coming down all over me
    I'm begging you
    Red rain coming down
    Red rain coming down
    Red rain coming down
    Red rain coming down
    Over me in the red red sea
    Over me
    Over me

    Digging In The Dirt

    Something in me, dark and sticky
    All the time it's getting strong
    No way of dealing with this feeling
    Can't go on like this too long

    [Chorus:]
    This time you've gone too far [x3]
    I told you [x4]
    This time you've gone too far [x3]
    I told you [x4]

    Don't talk back
    Just drive the car
    Shut your mouth
    I know what you are
    Don't say nothing
    Keep your hands on the wheel
    Don't turn around
    This is for real
    Digging in the dirt
    Stay with me, I need support
    I'm digging in the dirt
    To find the places I got hurt
    Open up the places I got hurt

    The more I look, the more I find
    As I close on in, I get so blind
    I feel it in my head, I feel it in my toes
    I feel it in my sex, that's the place it goes

    [Chorus]

    I'm digging in the dirt
    Stay with me I need support
    I'm digging in the dirt
    To find the places I got hurt
    To open up the places I got hurt

    Digging in the dirt
    To find the places we got hurt

    In Your Eyes

    uvod - koncertna verzija

    Excepting all I've done and said
    I want to stand and stare again
    Until there is nothing left out
    Ohohohoh
    It remains there in your eyes
    Whatever comes and goes
    I will hear your silent calls
    And I will touch this tender walls
    Until there's no one home again
    Ohohohoh

    In your eyes,
    In your eyes,
    In your eyes,


    Love I get so lost, sometimes
    Days pass and this emptiness fills my heart
    When I want to run away
    I drive off in my car
    But whichever way I go
    I come back to the place you are

    All my instincts, they return
    And the grand facade, so soon will burn
    Without a noise, without my pride
    I reach out from the inside

    In your eyes
    The light the heat
    In your eyes
    I am complete
    In your eyes
    I see the doorway to a thousand churches
    In your eyes
    The resolution of all the fruitless searches
    In your eyes
    I see the light and the heat
    In your eyes
    Oh, I want to be that complete
    I want to touch the light
    The heat I see in your eyes

    Love, I don't like to see so much pain
    So much wasted and this moment keeps slipping away
    I get so tired of working so hard for our survival
    I look to the time with you to keep me awake and alive

    And all my instincts, they return
    And the grand facade, so soon will burn
    Without a noise, without my pride
    I reach out from the inside

    In your eyes
    The light the heat
    In your eyes
    I am complete
    In your eyes
    I see the doorway to a thousand churches
    In your eyes
    The resolution of all the fruitless searches
    In your eyes
    I see the light and the heat
    In your eyes
    Oh, I want to be that complete
    I want to touch the light,
    The heat I see in your eyes

    In your eyes, In your eyes
    In your eyes, In your eyes
    In your eyes, In your eyes

    Growing Up

    Folded in your fleshy purse
    I am floating once again
    While the muted sounds are pumping rhythm
    All the walls close in on me
    Pressures building wave on wave
    til the water breaks and outside I go, oh

    One dot, thats on or off, defines what is and what is not, one dot
    Two dot, a pair of eyes, a voice, a touch, complete surprise, two dot

    Growing up, growing up,
    Looking for a place to live
    Growing up, growing up
    Looking for a place to live
    Growing up, growing up,
    Looking for a place to live

    My ghost likes to travel so far in the unknown
    My ghost likes to travel so deep into your space

    Three dot, a trinity, a way to map the universe,
    Three dot
    Four dot, is what will make a square, a bed to build on, its all there,
    Four dot

    My ghost likes to travel so far in the unknown
    My ghost likes to travel so deep into your space

    All the slow clouds pass us by
    Make the empire state look high
    As you take me in your sea-stained sweetness
    It spills, it tingles and it stings
    All the pleasure that it brings
    til the door has let the outside inside here

    Well on the floor theres a long wooden table
    On the table theres an open book
    On the page theres a detailed drawing
    And on the drawing is the name I took

    My ghost likes to travel so far in the unknown
    My ghost likes to travel so deep into your space

    Growing up, growing up,
    Looking for a place to live
    Growing up, growing up
    Looking for a place to live
    Growing up, growing up,
    Looking for a place to live
    Growing up, growing up,
    Looking for a place to live

    My ghost likes to travel
    My ghost likes to travel
    Moving inside of your space
    My ghost likes to travel
    My ghost likes to travel
    Moving inside of your space
    My ghost likes to travel
    Moving inside
    My ghost likes to travel
    Moving inside of your space
    My ghost likes to travel
    Moving inside
    My ghost likes to travel
    Moving inside of your space

    The breathing stops, I don't know when
    In transition once again
    Such a struggle getting through these changes
    And it all seems so absurd
    To be flying like a bird
    When I do not feel I've really landed here
