O'Stockholm
Pale and white
The year is slipping
Out of sight
Frozen waters
Icy roads
Swapped for the winter
The Church Discography
O'Stockholm
Pale and blue
How much warmth
I feel for you
[Spoken Intro]
[Marty] The gondolas, sometimes they sleep. But othertimes they swim.
[Ann Carlberger] And you?
[Marty] Me?
The Church Discography
The sudden rush and temptation
Of drizzle on my window
To go out and swim in the streets
With you
To turn the world into Venice
To let the water shrink me
Let me float in my umbrella boat
With you
The Church Discography
I can see the rain clouds emptying
Little needles leaning to the left
Of you
And high they fly like burst balloons
Running to the moon
For an airless rest
With you
The Church Discography
I'll slip on the deck of the fishing trawler
Wearing comical yellow
There's fishtails going off like mousetraps
Nets so many holes yet prisons
Me just in it simply for
The water
The Church Discography
The faces of mountains
Cut with white blood
Stampeding stallions of foam
For you
To hoof shaped pools
The sparkle of imaginary jewels
The Church Discography
That the magician that the
Sun is creates
An unbelievable time
I would rush to find
Even if I thought
That it might threaten me
The Church Discography
A thousand things to do
To follow them all through
Things to learn and see
And they will better me
The Church Discography
I would rush to find
Thumping hard, banging in my mind
It's so easy, so easy to fly
If you try, if you try
The Church Discography
She's King
She's King
The Church Discography
A throne of violent blue
And nothing to see through
Distant eyes to guide
And to enlighten me
And end to all our pain
An hour through her heart
Nothing there at least though
It encouraged me
The desperate angel
Sits in the dark
Wings in a fold
Arrow through her heart
The Church Discography
The tepid stream
Runs for a medal
Silver beats gold
And gives her a start
The Church Discography
Too fine to be smooth
Too greedy to share
Too blue to be colour
Too round to be square
The Church Discography
The perspex heath
Melts in the sun
The liquid slips
To a room at the front
The Church Discography
The merry house
Has a girl's name
A plastic fox
Drunk at the hunt
Thunder opens its throat
It lets out the roar of rain
Soaked I clench my overcoat
And come up to see you again
Your smoothly sculptured neck
The trapped curving tongue
Your cage of a mouth springs open
And throws out the seeds of a song
The Church Discography
They grow and flower
And hour after hour
Blessed velvet
You whisper
The Church Discography
The world a slave to your look
Your shapely almond tears
Your marzipan skin in a crystal stare
Your chocolate box of fears
The Church Discography
The load off my mind
The pointed beating pulse
Stabbing instead my thumping head
This famousness is false
The Church Discography
You glow and glint
I blink, you wink
In ice polished silk
You whisper
[rev. Sept. 23, 2003]
I shatter I regret
I recover my senses
I take a cigarette
I stumble I'm saved
I collapse into the arms of you
The Church Discography
I shiver I'm awake
Our fingertips touch
I can't wait
I kiss you I do it blindly
If it wasn't for the look in your eyes
I'd believe that everything you were saying was true
The Church Discography
I'm an actor, you're a fool
Like a road with a bridge
We were waiting for love in the cold
But our fear
It will shear
Our love from our hearts
Elizabeth, this time it isn't you
But she who shouts and blasts us with blue
The brilliance of making war
Rotten to the very core
She's hammered planks across my door
Some sensitivity might pull us through
The Church Discography
And the Evil Queen of England
Puts us down
So cold, so heartless
And oh so glory bound
Queen of evil and of iron
Can't you see there's people crying
The Church Discography
Being fair still gets you through the day
But your dark soul is getting in the way
You must believe in equality
In pride and people's dignity
Stop killing the family
You sacrifice the servants to the kings
The Church Discography
The Evil Queen of England
Looks away
So ignorant and bad
She's made us pay
Queen of evil and of iron
Can't you see there's people dying
The Church Discography
You light cigars with ten pound notes
You put pretty perfume on your throat
You dance in the castle
As we drown in the moat
You're pushing heads below the waterline
The Church Discography
[3:05]
(I sing very calmly, I sing very calmly
???
The system is not producing results ???
I sing very calmly. I sing very... I sing very calmly
I won't be there forever ???)
The Church Discography
And I've let you be the evil
Queen again
And now I need something
To help me dull the pain
A blue-eyed Marie Antoinette
Your speeches stale cigarettes
Give back our hearts
Repay your debts
I can't believe in anything you do
The Church Discography
Now the Evil Queen of England
Left a scar
And then she drove away
In a black expensive car
Queen of Evil and of iron
Remove our chains and help us climb away
Remove our chains and help us climb away
Look out!
The Church Discography
As I'm filling up my suitcase
Like a hungry mouth to feed
And I'm wondering when I'll see you
It seems my suitcase runs on greed
I won't empty it for ages
But I'll write a hundred pages
Just to let you know some of the thoughts of mine
Just to let you know some of the thoughts of mine
The Church Discography
Here they are
Shake them from me
Here they are
Take them from me
Here they are
On the tip of my tongue
Here they are
Some of the thoughts of mine
The Church Discography
And in a battle with no winners
My target won't keep still
And I won't be your prize today
I'm too upset to kill
But I'll show you what you're wasting
It's so wrong the things you're chasing
I'm gonna let you know some of the thoughts of mine
I'm gonna let you know some of the thoughts of mine
I am! Here they are!
The Church Discography
Don't drag me from a sleepy bed
If listening hurts
I'll only open up myself
To those who want my words
Some people are too different
And their opinions insignificant
I'm gonna let you know some of the thoughts of mine
Yeah, I'm gonna let you know some of the thoughts of mine
Here they are!
I am certain of a thousand things
I know nothing of a million more
The silence will eventually ring
Just listen
Just listen
The Church Discography
Instead of throwing your hands in the air
In your most amazing way
I will promise to be like this too
Just listen
Just listen
The Church Discography
And I won't be afraid
No I won't be afraid
The Church Discography
The quality of being with you is rich
The ability of working things out is rare
The wonders of two new worlds who meet
Everything is in space
Everything is in space
Just listen
(Listen)
The Church Discography
A thousand reasons why you can't hide
In places with a brilliant chance
In everything there's always a slide
Just listen
Just listen
The Church Discography
I've doubled back to test the door
To borrow each other's life
You must let go to gather more
Just listen
Just listen
Ash, ash, what were you once
Can greying dust tell likely stories
Shall your future turn to stone
Or will your beauty be alone
The Church Discography
Laden with the curse of taste
I cannot help but laugh and laugh
Bigger men with taller stories
Why have heroes when you want their glories?
The Church Discography
Someone spoke, I couldn't move
I'm frightened just because of you
Someone spoke, I couldn't move
Frightened just because of you
The Church Discography
Oh no, I know that face
You make my feet like lumps of lead
The nearer you come the slower I get
You act like the ocean but you only get wet
The Church Discography
Peace, peace don't open your mouth
You'll only begin what you already started
The only stand is the one you don't make
And no one opposes the things you can't take

Åh Stockholm
Blek och vit
År försvinner
För min syn
Frusna vatten
Isig väg
Klädda för vintern
The Church Discography
Åh Stockholm
Blek och blå
Stor är den värme
Jag känner för dig
