A-HA LYRICS
album: "Cast In Steel" (2015)


Cast In Steel

Meet me at the turnaround
Stop your car and look around
There I will be waiting
Forget for once how everything

Fades
It fades away

I’ll never get over what we said
It lingers in my head
I’ll always remember what we knew
One hundred percent to be true

To be right
To be real
Set in stone
And cast in steel

We made a pact
Eye to eye
Cross your heart
And hope to die

Can you see the end of things?
Can you see it happening?
Feel the ashes on the wind
Don’t you hate how everything

Falls
Just falls away

I’ll never get over what we said
It lingers in my head
I’ll always remember what we knew
One hundred percent to be true

To be right
To be real
Set in stone
And cast in steel

We made a pact
Eye to eye
Cross your heart
And hope to die

It lingers in my head
I’ll always remember what we knew
One hundred percent to be true

Set in stone
And cast in steel
To be right and
To be real
Set in stone
And cast in steel

Under The Makeup

This is how it ends
Each on our own
Unless we pretend
Meanwhile our hearts turn to stone
Shaped by wind
Boulders slowly molded over time
Here within

I, I want to see you
Under the makeup
Let all the worry
Vanish away
I want to hold you
Like it’s the first time
Like you were still mine

If you wanted out
Didn’t I let you go
If you wanted in
Didn’t I make it so
It could be
Tenderness escapes so easily

I, I want to see you
Under the makeup
Let all the worry
Vanish away
I want to hold you
Like it’s the first time
Like you were still mine

I, I want to see you
Under the makeup
Let all the worry
Vanish away
I want to touch you
Like it’s the first time
Like you were still mine

I, I want to see you
Under the makeup...

The Wake

Can't change the one you are
Can't change the one you love
Lower your guard
I've made a few mistakes
I'll tell you what it takes
Under the stars

Have you seen the other me at times?
Walking on an ever looser line

Baby this is a wake
You and I will not escape
As time goes by

The world's never been older
Your head on my shoulder
So close your eyes

Stung by normality
Wronged by your family
Conventions aside

Cannot change the one you love
From inside – or from above
Just hold him tight

Walking on an ever looser line
But love has let me over every time

Baby we're on a wake
You and I will not escape
Just close your eyes

The world's never been older
Your head on my shoulder
As time goes by

Baby this is a wake
None of us will escape
Who we are

The world's never been older
Your head on my shoulder
As time goes by

Objects In The Mirror

You drive down your old street
Familiar smiles from those you meet
You’ve been around been everywhere
But objects in the rear view mirror
Are closer than they appear

Looking back is bittersweet
When the world was at your feet
Love would make your life complete
No one makes it on their own

You’ve come so far
In your comfortable car
Now objects in the rear view mirror
Seem closer than they are

Looking back is bittersweet
All the world was at your feet
Love could make your life complete
Yeah, love could make your life complete
Teach your heart to skip a beat
Lift your eyes above the street
This is where you once belonged

Come on now, its not so bad
Thinking back on the fund we had
We can stitch a life together
With the fibres of the past
But you cannot make a fleeting moment
Promise it will last

Looking back is bittersweet
Love the world was at your feet
Lift your eyes above the street
This is where you once belonged

Been everywhere
And now you’re here
And objects in the rear view mirror
Seem to disappear

Door Ajar

Door Ajar
Door Ajar
Door Ajar

I hit my head on the pillow, hard
I heard a noise from the boulevard
And it made me go down
I left the door to my room ajar
Felt the rumble of the street-car
And it spiralled me down

If you could see me
Swallowed by darkness
What would it matter
Would it awaken
Feelings forsaken
Faded and scattered
Would you come running
If you could hear me
Some way or another
That’s what I’m thinking
Watching the stars reflect in the gutter
Door Ajar
Door Ajar

I hit my heard on the pillow, hard
I took the words that you said to heart
And it made me feel down
When I awoke it was dark outside
Just a flicker from a traffic light
And it signalled me down

If you could see me
Swallowed in darkness
What would it matter
Would it awaken
Feelings forsaken
Faded and scattered
Would you come running
If you could hear me
Some way or another
That’s what I’m thinking
Watching the stars reflect in the gutter
Door Ajar
Door Ajar
Door Ajar
Door Ajar
Door Ajar

Living At The End Of The World

Sometimes it leaves me with fear
Never saw the horizon this near
Look to the left then to the right
I tuck you in and kiss you goodnight

See there is something I know
We are not whom we’re told
We are more than we’ll never know

And we’re living at the end of the world
Forget about all that you’ve heard
Living our dreams on the highway
It’s just another day
No matter what they say or you’ve heard
We’re living on top of the world
We’re living our dreams on the highway
No matter what they say
It’s just another day

I hear your heart beat in the night
You are like an echo of light
But in times when shallow runs deep
Your golden beauty goes cheap
Still there is something I know
Something yet to unfold
And we are more than we’ll never know

And we’re living at the end of the world
Forget about all that you’ve heard
Living our dreams on the highway
It’s just another day
No matter what they say or you’ve heard
We’ve made it to the top of the world
Building up speed on the highway
We’ve made it to the end
Living at the end of the world

Forget about all that you’ve heard
No matter what they say or you’ve heard
We’ve made it to the top of the world
Building up speed on the highway
We’ve made it to the end of the world

Mythomania

You walked a mile on broken glass
Through glowing coals you were a path

The words on your tongue a mechanical song
Your face is lined with disappointment

Oh white matter mind, what have you got to say?
Reasons combine to force you away

You’re moving on
You solved the problem
And who can’t blame you
You’re safe in here
Inside your castle
In mythomania, mythomania

Cold crescent moon on a red cross
Its happening soon ti’s coming for us

Oh white matter mind, what is there left to say?
Reasons combined to force you away

No telephone
No television
No news that drain you
You’re safer here
More atmosphere
In mythomania, in mythomania, mythomania

You caught belief
Like some disease
No words can save you
Cuz you’re all along
You’re on your own
In mythomania



****************************************

She's Humming A Tune

She’s humming a tune
To keep herself from thinking
About all that she’s facing
But her mind is racing
Over and over again

And I don’t suppose she knows
Everything that’s bound to happen
How and where the story goes
And I don’t why I care
She’s up tight, not right
How could it matter to me

She’s humming a tune
To keep herself from straying
When everything’s swaying
And decisions are weighing
Ever so hard on her mind

And I don’t suppose she knows
Everything that’s bound to happen
How and where the story goes
And I don’t know if it just
I’m bummed out, no doubt
What does it matter to me

She’s up tight, not right
How could it matter to me

And I don’t suppose she knows

She’s up tight, not right
How could it matter to me

Shadow Endeavors

Why breathe a word
When no one needs to know
Why say a thing
To another living soul

Let us pay no mind
To a world that seems unkind
For here is something to shelter
Now more than ever

Shadow endeavours
Our shadow endeavours
Shadow endeavours
Shadow endeavours
Shadow endeavours
Shadow endeavours

Why leave us open
And naked to the sun
Why draw their fire
That they’ll surely reign upon us

Let us pay no mind
To their words and bitter lines
For here’s something to shelter
And now more than ever

Shadow endeavours
These shadow endeavours
Shadow endeavours
Shadow endeavours
Shadow endeavours
More than ever
Shadow endeavours

Only ever happened to me once
It doesn’t come again
I think somebody left me here
Afraid and lonely
A long time ago

Only ever happened to me once
It doesn’t come again
I think somebody left me here
Afraid and lonely
A long time ago

Goodbye Thompson

Goodbye Thompson goodbye
I tape the sign to the door
Here we pinned all our dreams
Now the store is no more

What comes after what was
That was once strangely new
What awaits up ahead
For me and you?

Goodbye Thompson
Goodbye Thompson
Goodbye Thompson
Goodbye Thompson Goodbye
Goodbye Thompson Goodbye

Goodbye Thompson Goodbye
This space is for rent
See me head hanging low
All my energies spent

What comes after what was
That was once strangely new
What awaits up ahead
I wish I knew

Goodbye Thompson
Goodbye Thompson
Goodbye Thompson
Goodbye Thompson Goodbye
Goodbye Thompson Goodbye

What comes after what was
That was once strangely new
What awaits up ahead
For me and you

Goodbye Thompson
Goodbye Thompson
Goodbye Thompson
Goodbye Thompson
Goodbye Thompson

The End Of The Affair

Even as the snow is falling
Dark December nights are calling
Memories of early warning signs
Like a whisper in the mind
I put my brave face on
Robbed of the love I owned

It’s the end of the affair
We are not who we once were

Hard to be open when all facts are in
Hard to write endings before we begin

It’s the end of the affair
And it seems we no longer care

Absence makes the heart grow fonder
Well I was fond but now I’m harder
So here we are in somber silence
With no one else but us to blame

Hard to be honest when others pretend
Hard to begin when we already know the end

It’s the end of the affair
And it seems we no longer care



****************************************

Mother Nature Goes To Heaven

Wrong
You never got it wrong
You always got it right
But now some time has passed;
You’re ever so slightly off
Thing you could do asleep
In a not too distant past,
Are trying your patience
Harder now

And though
Everything moves along
You hope the rumour’s wrong
That Mother Nature
Goes to heaven

Right
You never got it wrong
It always got away
When you had it nailed
It was ever so slightly off
Sending you somewhere else
Than where you had to be
Making it that much
Harder now

And though
You’re struggling to get on track
It pales somewhat to the fact
That Mother Nature goes to heaven

And there will be no sadder day
When all the birds
Have flown away

Nothing Is Keeping You Here

The lights change on the hill
The air seems strangely still
Everyone’s asleep

The floorboards creak at dawn
As you walk out on the lawn
The grass is wet beneath

You think it rather strange
You think it rather weird
It’s fair to say that
Nothing is keeping you here
Nothing is keeping you here
Nothing is keeping you here

The phone is off the hook
As you sink into a book
You don’t know where you are

From the world; detached
Unto a girl you latched
It never got too far

And everybody talks
And everybody stares
It’s safe to say that
Nothing is keeping you here
Nothing is keeping you here
Nothing is keeping you here

And everybody’s dawn
And everybody cares
You knew your day to shine
Would come without you here

Come without you here...
Nothing was keeping you here
Nothing is keeping you here

Lana Del Rey Music To Watch Boys Lyrics

Lana Del Rey Music To Watch Boys Lyrics

[Lana del Rey]
I like you a lot
Putting on my music while I’m watching the boys
So I do what you want
Singing soft grunge just to soak up the noise
We're ribbons on ice
Playing their guitars, only one of my toys
Cause I like you a lot
No holds barred, I’ve been sent to destroy, yeah

Pi-i-i-ink flamingos, always fascinated me
I know what only the girls know
Colors with lies begin to mean
Oh, oh, I see you're going
So-o-o-o I play my music, watch you leave

I like you a lot
Putting on my music while I’m watching the boys
So I do what you want
Singing soft grunge just to soak up the noise
We're ribbons on ice
Playing their guitars, only one of my toys
Cause I like you a lot
No holds barred, I’ve been sent to destroy, yeah

Perfect demon and living single
They never thought that I could be
I know what only the girls know
Lies can buy eternity
I, I, I see you leaving
So-o-o-o I push record and watch you leave

I like you a lot
Putting on my music while I’m watching the boys
So I do what you want
Singing soft grunge just to soak up the noise
We're ribbons on ice
Playing their guitars, only one of my toys
Cause I like you a lot
No holds barred, I’ve been sent to destroy, yeah

Live to love you
And I love to love you
And I live to love you, boy
Live to love you
And I love to love you
And I live to love you, boy
Nothing gold can stay
Like love or lemonade
Or sun or summer days
It's all a game to me anyway

I like you a lot
Putting on my music while I’m watching the boys
So I do what you want
Singing soft grunge just to soak up the noise
We're ribbons on ice
Playing their guitars, only one of my toys
Cause I like you a lot
No holds barred, I’ve been sent to destroy, yeah

Putting on my music while I’m watching the boys
Putting on my music while I’m watching the boys

Jacob Whitesides I Know What You Did Last Summer Lyrics

Jacob Whitesides I Know What You Did Last Summer Lyrics

[Jacob Whitesides & Kelly Rowland]
Black shades, white lights
Cold hands in the midnight
Under the water, under the water
We make love

There was a blanket covering everything you never said
We were in Venice, all of the sunken ships inside its veils
Under the water, under the water
We lost blood

I know what you did last summer,
You won't let me forget it
You won't let me forget it
I know what we did last summer,
How you're gonna do that to me?
How you're gonna do that to me?
If you don't know what you did?!

Seashells all over my skin,
Tip tee from the halley
Under the water, under the water
Can't see sea

And I blow tequila, don't taste the same
Boy, you got me feeling some type of way
I'm all a malice ??? of the pain
Under the water, tuck in the water in vein

I know what you did last summer,
You won't let me forget it
You won't let me forget it
I know what we did last summer,
How you're gonna do that to me?
How you're gonna do that to me?

I know what you did last summer,
You won't let me forget it
You won't let me forget it
I know what we did last summer,
How you're gonna do that to me?
How you're gonna do that to me?

You know what you did!!

Rick Ross Foreclosures Lyrics

Rick Ross Foreclosures Lyrics

[Intro]
There's so many things that I don't understand. Sometimes, being in the position I am, with no malicious intent, my nigga, you can take it how you want it. I see it from both sides, I feel a nigga pain

[Verse 1]
Learn to walk a tightrope
Ever seen a rich nigga go broke?
They putting liens on a nigga's things
Publicize your demise, and by all means
Your family fortune is forever what you stood on
Sold dreams, fantasies that put the hood on
You reap what you sow, and they speaking repossessions
To the culture itself, these are powerful lessons
These niggas always smiled when I came around
They let you know my reputation when you in my town
A real nigga, you gonna know that by the contract
Bottom line blood, show me where them one’s at
That paper it get funny when publishing is involved
Mechanicals never mattered because that was your dog
Now you hands-on, but things don’t ever seem right
You make a call to give your lawyer the green-light
He look into it then hit you up with the bad news
It’s so familiar, he did the same with the last dudes
Mafioso, baby girl, cash rules
Every dollar accounted for, double M the crew

[Hook]
Death Row, fast life
Foreclosed on my past life
The white man call us stupid niggas
We spend it all, nothing for our children
Had it all, now it’s repossessed
Can’t feed the clique cutting bad checks
Time to learn boy, that Cash Rules
Success is a precious jewel

[Verse 2]
Planting poison in a nigga mind
Chilling with your boys when it’s time to grind
We both come from those humble beginnings
Still can’t believe we never followed each other on Twitter
Funny thing is the animosity money brings
Real niggas out of style we may be one in three
Back against the wall outnumbered by fuckboys
One bullet, one target, one choice
You can take an L or take the shell
It's still double M we making mills
Made niggas respect my hustle on both coasts
I put the word out to see who hit back with the lowest
I need a hit handled, put me in touch with the closest
You still digging through ashtrays killing the roaches
And I never took an L back when Meek fell
Just drove the numbers all the way back up at retail

[Hook]
Death Row, fast life
Foreclosed on my past life
The white man call us stupid niggas
We spend it all, nothing for our children
Had it all, now it’s repossessed
Can’t feed the clique cutting bad checks
Time to learn boy, that Cash Rules
Success is a precious jewel

[Verse 3]
Can’t be writing checks with your eyes closed
While you living out of homes in different time zones
Mind blown finna strip you out your rhinestones
Pistol to your ear, this that level I’m on
I apologize woadie but this all I got
Everybody in this office we could die tonight
I never met an artist who fully recouped
These the deals the deal dealers wanna deal to you
Young niggas, time to act your age
Buying belts you seen on other niggas waists
Hoes fucking for follows, they wanna post online
Whole time, shorty knowing I’m the gold mine
Put it on all he needed was a co sign
Black minks and gloves, nigga, the whole nine
TV on the Rolls, shit, I had to hold mine
You’ll foreclose or fold just for soul signs

[Hook]
Death Row, fast life
Foreclosed on my past life
The white man call us stupid niggas
We spend it all, nothing for our children
Had it all, now it’s repossessed
Can’t feed the clique cutting bad checks
Time to learn boy, that Cash Rules
Success is a precious jewel

[Outro]
Success is a precious jewel
Success is a precious jewel

Jeezy God Lyrics

Jeezy God Lyrics

[Hook]
I'm a god in the hood, nigga
I'm a god in the hood, nigga
I'm a god in the hood, nigga
I'm a god in the hood, nigga

[Verse 1]
Young 5'8 tall like he 10 feet tall
Chopper make a nigga jump a 10 foot wall
Avian and gold bottles, this is hood royalty
No matter how broke, how rich
Nigga, never ever compromise your loyalty
Medusa head on my Versace robe
Standing on a pole of white bricks
Imagine crosses on the units
Stamps looking like a crucifix
Pure like the blood of Virgin Mary
Turn water to some wine, nigga
Plug did a touchdown, met him at the [?] nigga

[Hook]
I'm a god in the hood, nigga
I'm a god in the hood, nigga
I'm a god in the hood, nigga
I'm a god in the hood, nigga

[Verse 2]
Young 5'8 tall like he 10 feet tall
Chopper make a nigga jump a 10 foot wall
God shit, I'm on my Kanye
Bad bitch she my Kim K
Legend is that he made a million dollars
But the nigga really started with a four weight
Whom shall I fear, nigga
The plug say it's no limits
I sent the man right here, nigga
Snatch a partner out the state pen
Hallejulah, amen
Pull a little water from the sink
Hope it wash away the sin, nigga
The foe did a touchdown
Met him at the [?] West End, nigga

[Hook]
I'm a god in the hood, nigga
I'm a god in the hood, nigga
I'm a god in the hood, nigga
I'm a god in the hood, nigga

[Outro]
Young 5'8 tall like he 10 feet tall
Chopper make a nigga jump a 10 foot wall
Young 5'8 tall like he 10 foot tall
Chopper make a nigga jump a 10 foot wall
