Lyrics


1. KEEP IT TO YOURSELF

What you say? Skies are grey? Had a bad day?
Well, hip hooray. I've had a bad one too
I've missed the trains, been to pains, blown my brains and
Don't want to hear it all again from you, so

Keep it to yourself
Keep it to yourself
Keep it to yourself
Tell nobody else

Keep it to yourself
Keep it to yourself
Keep it to yourself
Tell nobody else, no

So you know someone who doesn't like me
They told you that they really hate my guts
I don't need you as a middle-man. They can tell me themselves
That is if they have the nuts

And as for bad things you knew were gonna happen
That retrospective bullshit's got to go,
Don't looks so smug. Makes you ugly in this light, and no
I don't wanna know, and especially no "I told you so"

Keep it to yourself
Keep it to yourself
Keep it to yourself
Tell nobody else

Keep it to yourself
Keep it to yourself
Keep it to yourself
Tell nobody else,
Shut up, just shut up
Just shut up
Just shut your face

Gibberish shout of excitement

Keep it to yourself
Keep it to yourself
Keep it to yourself
Tell nobody else

Tell nobody. Keep it to yourself
Tell nobody. Keep it to yourself
Tell nobody. Keep it to yourself
Tell nobody. Tell nobody else, no

Tell nobody
Tell nobody
Tell nobody
No!


2. KARIN (VEX RED COVER)

Karin is wasting time
Whirlpool in her mind
She runs this pantomime
See me, don't be blind

All the time
All the time
She's dyin'

Karin turns away
She sees no ones face
Looking into space
To run away

Is this really me
Could this really be serious
I need your help
I need your help


3. APPROACHING BY STEALTH

The broken bone pushes against my lung
And you kiss it better for me
You're always saying that you don't know what you want
Well I think i got what you need

There's something pricking in the back of your skull
Something that you ought to know
Just like the others you're still stuck in denial, yeah
You find yourself saying
"Well this is not real, I am not here, this is not me!"

But I know who you are and you are just as lost as me
Just like me
Just like me
Just like me

You got your head in the noose
What do you want me to do?
Well I can't just vanish the truth
I can't take it back
No I can't just throw it away

Maybe you will listen to me now
Maybe you will listen to me now
Maybe you will listen to me now
You just don't listen to me

No, no, you don't listen to me!
Just like me!
Same as me!
Terribly...


4. VICTIM

Smile and in a gentle voice
Tell me you love me
Friends forever, always
Holding my hand

But now I, I see stars in your eyes
And you would let them die
Watch them fade in the sky
For me, happily...

Time goes so slowly
When shared between the two
For years you protected me
Kept me safe and warm

But now I, I see those stars in your eyes
And every star now dies
There were things you'd hide
But you told me everything

I was your best friend
And you trusted me

But I lied to you
I have always lied to you
I destroyed you
I have always laughed at you

I betrayed you
And it was me who made you cry
And it was me who made you cry
