sheltered from the sunshine
buried in this heart of mine
is a yellow traffic sign
is it stop or go
i can feel it talk to me
but what does it want from me
what will my decision be
yes or no
right between the red and green
i wanna know what amber means
i wanna know the consequence
before i'm jumping off the fence
kiss me green light
kiss me green light
i'm over my fear
so kiss me here
yes or no, yes or no
what will my decision be
and what does it want from me
i can feel it talk to me
is it stop or go, stop or go
or is a yellow traffic sign
buried in this heart of mine
sheltered from the sunshine
before i'm jumping off the fence
i wanna know the consequence
i wanna know what amber means
right between the red and green
kiss me green light
kiss me green light
i'm over my fear
so kiss me green light
kiss me green light
i'm over my fear
i'm over my fear
so kiss me here

milky waves you ski upon
olive green below where had autumn gone
candles fell so soon too soon
leaving behind a bright blue diamond moon
so yeah how do i wake from this
pull my eyelids apart
jump for joy and narrowly miss
shake myself away from this
cheese dream
what an uneasy scene
cardboard man alive and well
asterix and obstacles and all that i cannot tell
ferry me across the lake
and make all the sounds i can't when i'm awake
so yeah how do i wake from this
find a digital clock scrambled, electric shock
or princess kiss
what am i to make from this
cheese dream
with a queezy theme
so yeah how do i wake from this
find a digital clock scrambled, electric shock
or princess kiss
probably a prince's kiss
what am i to take from this
cheese dream
with a queezy theme

i bet you any money that this time tomorrow
i'll be myself again - my ordinary self
but that doesn't change things that are happening right now
as we speak i'm aching, weak and just really mad
i bet you that i have got some kind of influenza
and i'll be right as rain when the rain is gone
but that doesn't help me as i'm one big lousy puddle today
as we speak i'm aching, weak and trying to hold on
don't give me guarantees
they don't do too much for me
i'm cold right now and i'm burning up
i'm so cold right now and i've had quite enough
i know what you're thinking, how, i really can't explain
i'm just cold right now and i'm burning up up up up and up again
maybe i should trust them when they say i'm looking for attention
i've not been hugged today but 8 hugs seems like an unrealistic goal to me
to be healthy is to love the life you're breathing in
and to share it willingly with anyone else
i bet you any money that this time tomorrow
i'll breathe in life again - really give it a toke
i don't need no guarantee
they have never worked for me
i'm cold right now
i'm so cold right now and i've had more than enough
some kind of influenza
some kind of influenza
some kind of spoken cadenza
oh yeah

gone are the days when i held you
what could i say when you tied my tongue
plays in my head over and over
i just can't let out
nothing you've said has given me reason to doubt
what good's my love if it's broken
finding myself in those wasted hours
days become nights and nights become restless
i just can't get back
nothing i've done has given you reason to fight
i'll hold my breath content with the memories that keep me under
i long to surrender those days in november
better kept in the past
you've left me marked
so i'm never myself again
i would give it all away
for when i'd turn at my name and see you look at me
like i was heaven
but we'll be fine
in the cages of my mind
gone are the days when i held you

O Memorie Brooklyn, New York
"O Memorie is at times dark and haunting as it is bright and up-lifting. The songs are thought provoking and powerful. One need not wait until the dead of night to listen to them, as they sound just as good on an overcast afternoon." Divide & Conquer Music ... more
