Playlist Ride

ride - not fazed

won't be a monkey in anyone's zoo
And I won't get fazed whatever you do

"Hit him again, he's crazy"

ride - ride the wind

I've been waiting round some time
Just to live a life that's mine
I've been walking round this town
When there's no one else around
You can hear it everywhere
This is our eternal prayer
Let it go, Ride the wind
Let it go, Ride the wind

You'll see me, I'll come and see you
Always finding something to do
Love is needing, I'm needing love
Got to know that there is enough
We've been working far too late
Carrying this heavy load
Let it go, Ride the wind
Let it go, Ride the wind

ride - 0x4

Never been so far away
I don't think I want to stay in this room
Anymore
If I crwal across the floor
Then I'd be closer to that door
It's too far

Never been so far away
Just lost the last thought in my head
What happens now?

Some fantasy you've been
Pick up the pieces in my mind
I'm going home

ride - 1000 miles

1000 miles

This night these memories lost and found
Are taking over me
I could see your picture and hear the sound
Of the song you sung to me

You gotta feel and take every chance
You did the right thing
Drove a thousand miles away
Out of trace and in another time
You did the wrong thing
And bought it back in your mind
Why's life so unkind?

For always and ever it's getting better
I feel your steps with mine
I'm moving on like it said in the letter
Another place, another time

Blown away
Got blown away, a thousand miles away

ride - all i can see

Lying still, staring out of the window,
All I can see is doubt.
Watching as tonight moves in.
Watching as the light fades out.

Smokey rooms, minds out of tune.
Lights down on the time spent with you.
Time moves into place, my memories fade,
Is all I can see so true?

You treat me like a fool

ride - birdman

Blackbird flying in the sky
Please don't look me in the eye
You are very very lucky
It's never easy to find me
The winter's coming now you've grown
The cold will numb you to the bone
It cuts you through so that you know
In pain the minutes go so slow

Your soul and mine will carry on
When this transparent world is gone
There's nothing strange in what I say
It's always meant to be this way
Power streams where love is strong
Energy converting, never gone
There's never going to be an end
A million atoms can't pretend

Until the cold ground swallows me
Me and Ide, go running free
Then we'll change, not disappear
All channels receiving loud and clear
Birdman think he owns the sky
But he can't look me in the eye
I walk on gilded mirror blades
I walk on razors feel no pain
In the heat of summertime

Rolling thunder is my sign
I understand what's going on
I'm gonna fly right to the sun

ride - black nite crash

See the girls coughing, looking underfed
When they go to sleep, they dream of being dead
I saw you in the corner, with a butcher's knife
Your boyfriend running round, looking for a midwife

Everyone's got the same disease, it's alright
Everybody lives down on their knees, it's alright

Bumped into a hunchback abuser
Said he made a million working on a cruiser
Do what he want and he don't get caught
He's looking at the moon but I'm an astronaut

Everyone looks when they see a crash, it's alright
Everybody needs just a little cash, it's alright

Evening daybreak, switchblade stomach ache
Gonna meet a man with a rattlesnake handshake
Walk around like I'm looking for an upgrade
Slipping through town like a penny in the arcade

ride - burnin

Behind this wall
The sun never shines its rays down on me
Don't blame the man who's hunted and trapped
And longs to be free
Every day the Good Lord sends
I plan my sweet revenge
This place won't get me down
Because I'm gonna burn it down

Your own idea of freedom might be to walk in the sun
And someone else, well they might tell you, loving someone
There's a million kind of doors
To go with all the different laws
To lock you out and keep you in
But never stop you burnin'

ride - castle on the hill

The King's been in his bedroom for weeks
In exile from the world, he never speaks
The Queen is in the counting house, her fingers in the till
There's something happening to the Castle on the Hill

The jester's telling jokes to everyone
Says "Now he's gone, well ain't it fun"
There's whispers in the courtroom, "Is he crazy, is he ill?"
Nobody has an answer, but they keep on asking still

And a friend of mine, one of the few
Has locked himself away like Howard Hughes
They're trying to replace him but they know they never will
It ain't the same without him, on the Castle on the Hill

There's a wind of madness in the air
Since he's gone nobody seems to care
The court is disillusioned, everything is up for sale
And the Castle on the Hill is like a boat without a sail

ride - chrome waves

One hundred years from now
See the chrome, can't hear it move
I'll meet you on the way down
Wrapped around somebody's hand
We've all moved on from here
The colour's running dry
A drowsy line of wasted time
Bathes my open mind

This strange machinery
Is keeping you from seeing me
I'll meet you on the way down
Can't stay - unbearable to go

ride - close my eyes

Last night I had such a good time,
But there's a price to pay.
A night full of kicks, now the sun's in my eyes,
And I feel so weary today.

I want to close my eyes,
I want to close my eyes,
I want to ride and ride and ride,
(Till I'm blown away?
- this line is missing on the lyric sheet!)

Make your body a blanket,
Let me rest my head.
The world can wait for just a few minutes more,
They might as well be dead

ride - cool your boots

Across 50 states of mind
I didn't feel inclined
You waited yesterday
I didn't come your way
Now time is moving on
I know it won't be long
Till I'm shuffling away
With nothing more to say

When I'm printed on your wall
My face won't change at all
The smile beneath my hair
Hangs lifeless in the air
Like a net in water
I'm running through it all
And I'm shuffling away
With nothing more to say

It's been preying on my mind
And now I'm just resigned
You smile for yesterday
I think I'm in the way
You seem concerned
And say I should slow down
But how can I see the stars
If my feet are on the ground?

ride - crown of creation

Don't wake me up if it's another day
'cos I don't wanna see it on my own
Your love is all that I am asking for
But they won't let us be alone
I've been running for a thousand miles
I didn't find a better place
I need to hold your body in my arms
And feel your kisses on my face

Don't you hide your love away
You are the Crown of Creation
I wanna be your relation
I'm getting off at your station

Well I was looking for a waterfall
And whatever nature showed to me
To be alone these things just bring you down
When you can share them, then you're free
When I wake up next to you
And I breathe the morning air
I know that you're the only one for me
Baby, nothing can compare

ride - dead man

Dead man, crawling out of his crater
Sucking on the air from his ventilator
Watch out little girl you're just a beginner
He wears outside his face the smile of a winner

Drags his woman around by the hair
It turns her on, she don't wanna be square
Standing on top of the family mountain
Drinking lemonade from the magical fountain

Holiday trips in a Volkswagen camper
Children locked into an old picnic hamper
Let them loose to play in a sandpit
Leave them there 'cause they take us for granted

Man is an ape, and woman a martyr
It's not what you do when you do it, it's what you do after
I went down to the zoo and I looked in the cages
Then I walked on home past the office, collected my wages

ride - decay

We have short time to stay,
Our night is slipping far away.
Caught up within bad memories,
Our growth seems certain to decay.

Now this feeling's so alive,
But, as you or anything, we die,
We die.

Let's stay here for a while,
Eyes so round and bright we gently smile.
Live for the moment, not the past,
Why do we always fall so fast
