Everybody’s watching, me again
Burning up signals, in my brain
Do I go up child, take it to the limit?
Do I shrivel up and go cold inside?
Down Boy! Everybody’s watching
Everybody’s watching and I don’t know why, I need
Cool Water, to get me through this heat
Cool Water, Slip it all over me
Did you get the signals, I sent you?
Do you want to play now, dare you?
Did you get by girl, did you get the reason?
Did you understand enough to get you by?
Why now, does it even matter?
Why my head is dizzy and my throat is dry, I need
Cool Water, to get me through this heat
Cool Water, Slip it all over me
If I had the answers, I could share
I just wan to feel like I’m going somewhere
How! Can you suffer in silence if you truly know the things you say you do
Now! It’s simple repetition, I don’t want to hear it and neither do you, I need
Cool Water, to get me through this heat
Cool Water, Slip it all over me

oh believe it don't come down on me
can you feel it trying to set you free
When your soul lets you go and your spirit is free
when you're feeling locked up in the crowd
just come and get the key
do you need it
can you feel it
You no longer hide behind the wall
feeling stronger getting up and standing tall
when your soul lets you go
when you're feeling locked up in the crowd
say it once say it loud
do you need it
can you feel it
Are you sure you can be strong
Are you sure you belong
are you man enough to take the fear away
cos a change is gonna come
and the rain is gonna come
and the words that change the world will come your way
Understand it you dont have to live in fear
have you planned it or will you disappear
when your soul lets you go and your spirit is free
if you're feeling locked up in the sky
just remember that you can ask why

He picks her up on a Saturday
throws her in the car and drives away takes her out to the theatre,
doesn't know why but it ain't no passion play
and he feels like its all gone over
no fear looking over his shoulder
don't kill me, lord you still thrill me
don't do it, say what you want to believe
Don't Leave
He knows that it's all been wearing thin
maybe its gonna pick up after a while
but she says she's gonna be leaving him
and blows him into pieces with her smile
and he feels like its all gone over
no fear looking over his shoulder
don't kill me, lord you still thrill me
don't do it, say what you want to believe
Don't Leave
He knows the mess that he's gotten in
he's aware of the fact that he brought it onto himself
he wants to beg her to go to him
but he knows if he did then it wouldn't be any help
and he feels like a waste of space
does she see the horror in his face?
don't kill me, lord you still thrill me
don't do it, say what you want to believe
Don't Leave
