Little Sunshine

I wake to something pretty
I can feel it in this city
I have to hide away
Kids and parents singin' songs
None of them can see what's wrong
Forever shall they stay
Where the moon never comes up
and the rain falls in tin cups
You will see little sunshine
and a face you left behind
Now wipe your boots and take your seat
the kids have got a special treat
They're lining at the gate
Where people come from all around
to dress themselves up as clowns
in this town of hate
Where the moon never comes up
and the rain falls in tin cups
You will see little sunshine
and a face you left behind
I have never seen a boy
who's sadness was his only toy
Until I found this town
On the day I met the girl
who hypnotizes the whole world
she told me what she found
Where the moon never comes up
and the rain falls in tin cups
You will see little sunshine
and a face you left behind
You will see little sunshine
and a face you left behind
Now you've got people on your side
Now you have found a place for you to hide
My love

Wave the Flag
03:24
|

|
In the dead of the night,
see them plan to escape
But the watchers on the wall
will determine their fate
Kill the guards
Wave the flag
The sunrise on its way
We protect these hide aways
Now the war has passed
and the sun is risin'
But the battle goes on
And I'm still fightin'
Stand your ground,
this is war,
you said you've seen this before

Mother, May I

Oh, this man can never see the signs
Oh, this fool is running out of time
I can see why he suffers so
But this is what you know
Seems he's all out of fun
And he's stolen your gun
Oh, he's stuck in my head
Oh, I never see my bed
These nightmares, they seem to linger on
Yeah, knife to the throat
A letter you wrote
But the images are gone
Oh, mother dearest
Please, send these men away
There in my doorway
And it seems they plan to stay
Now the fool is hopin' on the train
Oh, will he ever be the same?
But he steals the locomotive now
Just in time for you to see just how
Unwrap his mind,
he left the wheel behind
He'll be the one to wear the crown

Into the Fire We Go
03:58
|

Sunshine is rid of here
Take a good long look, my dear
I see no one but you
Oh! But the snow!
Into the fire we go!
I'll stay for just a while
In this town where no one smiles
Mother
made her last mistake
Daughter
plays this game of fate
Oh! But the snow!
Into the fire we go!
I guess I'll stay for a while
In this town where no one smiles
Cities breakin' down for you
All the bridges break in two
All for you
Do you plan to sink so low?
In that fire we plan to go?

All I Need
02:18
|

All I need is a reason, please
Cos I'm on my knees, below the forest trees
Reasons to forgive you
Down one by two
Daze at a sky so blue
Sail away
For the night said stay
As I cry in pain
As you sail away
All I need is a reason, please
Cos I'm on my knees, below the forest trees
Once you've found
What can't be found
All you scream and shout, at a soundless sound
Yeah, you scream and shout at a soundless sound
All I need is a reason, please
Cos I'm on my knees, below the forest trees
