Suede - Beyond The Outskirts

Oh I lie here staring at the ceiling
And I wonder what's happening outside
Oh I know you've got the same blank feeling
You don't have to tell me I'm right

Beyond the outskirts, come with us
We're small town dreaming
We're birds on a wire
Beyond the outskirts
Come with us
We'll jump out of the page and into the fire

Oh well we could sit here by the chain link fence
And talk for hours about Saturday
Oh well I know it makes no difference
To anything much anyway

Beyond the outskirts, come with us
We're small town dreaming
We're birds on a wire
Beyond the outskirts, come with us
We'll jump out of the page and into the fire

Beyond the outskirts, come with us
We're small town dreaming
We're birds on a wire
Beyond the outskirts, come with us
We'll jump out of the page and into the fire

Beyond the outskirts, come with us
We're small town dreaming
We're birds on a wire
Beyond the outskirts, come with us
We'll jump out of the page and into the fire

Oh I lie here staring at the ceiling
And I wonder what's happening outside
Oh I know you've got the same blank feeling
I wonder where you are tonight

Suede - Cold Hands

The playgrounds are empty
The wind it is still
I follow you up to the foot of the hill
My life is the hands of a child
The hands of a child

Put your cold hands on me
Take a spin of the wheel
I'll follow, I'll follow you down
With your cold hands on me
I'm a hare in the cat's eyes
A hare in the cat's eyes

I kicked at the chalk
Under vermillion skies
I said "I don't wanna play these games"
But I followed you and I
And now I want to curl up and die
I'll curl up and die

With your cold hands on me
With a spin of the wheel
I'll follow, I'll follow you down
Put your cold hands on me
I'm a hare in the cat's eyes
A hare in the cat's eyes

Put your cold hands on me
Take a spin of the wheel
I'll follow, I'll follow you down
With your cold hands on me
I'm a hare in the cat's eyes
Now see how a hare dies

Suede - Life Is Golden

The same blood runs through your veins
The same strange way of talking
The same thoughts sink through your pillow
The same crooked smile

You're not alone; look up to the sky and be calm
You're not alone look into the light and be heard
You're never alone; your life is golden
Golden

The same blood runs through your veins
But you have the light of your mother
She holds her love to her
Tender breast

You're not alone; look up to the sky and be calm
You're not alone look into the light and be heard
You're never alone; your life is golden
Golden

You're not alone when the world puts all the winter in you
Not alone, I'm there in the words that you use
You're never alone; your life is golden
Golden

And they won't love you tonight
Clap along to the resurrection
Carve your name in my tender skin
With your beautiful words
With your beautiful words

You're not alone; look up to the sky and be calm
You're not alone look into the light and be heard
You're never alone; your life is golden
Golden

You're not alone 'cause the same thoughts I have in my head
You're not alone with the city wind in your hair
You're never alone; your life is golden
Golden

Suede - Tides

Tides are pulling, pulling me back to you
Dragging me under, making me new
It's wonderful, it's wonderful
It's making me scared
I don't know where it's going

Clothed in pale gray
Rolling like driftwood
Waving at distant planes
I feel it against my paper cuts
And I'm holding onto nothing
Clinging to the void as I'm riding the waves
It's making me new again

Like a rain of bombs we'll fall to you
Through the blue, through the blue

Tides are pulling me
I'm lost in the pale rain
I'm clutching at debris
I'm trying to stay awake
The water level rises
I'm miles from the shore now
And I'm riding the waves
Dragging me under again

Like a rain of bombs we'll fall to you
Through the blue, through the blue

Like a rain of bombs we'll drop from the sky
A rain of fire, a rain of fire

Tides are pulling, pulling me back to you
Taking my hand, dragging me under
It's wonderful, it's wonderful
Pulling me under, pulling me through

Tides are pulling, pulling me back to you
Taking me over, making me new
It's wonderful, it's wonderful
Pulling me under, pulling me back to you
