Infect me Never ever land, never land, never ever land Infect me

Your words, yeah they wreck me when they roll off your lips That high that you give me, as good as it gets No bottle of anything does what you do to me right now Right now Don't wanna let your feet hit the cold hard floor With every kiss I steal, I wanna steal more You've got me right here in the palm of your hand Keep falling for you, falling like I'll never land You lay your head where my heartbeat hits It feels like gravity just doesn't exist Even if we wanna stop, we know we can't I'm falling for you, falling like I'll never land We hang on each other like it's our last dance We stretch every song out as long as we can We float like the melody making up memories, all night All night Don't wanna let your feet hit the cold hard floor With every kiss I steal, I wanna steal more You've got me right here in the palm of your hand Keep falling for you, falling like I'll never land You lay your head where my heartbeat hits It feels like gravity just doesn't exist Even if we wanna stop, we know we can't I'm falling for you, falling like I'll never land Falling like I'll never land The way you say "why don't you stay" gets me flying Don't wanna let your feet hit the cold hard floor With every kiss I steal, I wanna steal more You've got me right here in the palm of your hand Keep falling for you, falling like I'll never land You lay your head where my heartbeat hits It feels like gravity just doesn't exist Even if we wanna stop, we know we can't I'm falling for you, falling like I'll never land (Whoa whoa oh) Falling like I'll never land (Whoa whoa oh) Falling like I'll never land Falling falling falling like I'll never land Falling falling falling like I'll never land Falling falling falling like I'll never land

You've been on my mind today I had a dream I heard you say Something made me feel this way, it's nice You had called me baby like, We'd been together for some time It had never crossed my mind before When I pass a country road I have to wonder where it goes A friendly face a pleasant place to live But country roads they turn to black And all the houses start to stack And now I don't know where I'm at, at all You've been on my mind today I had a dream I heard you say Something made me feel this way, it's nice

Alice pressed against the wall So she can see the door In case the laughing strangers crawl and Crush the petals on the floor Alice in her party dress She thanks you kindly So serene She needs you like she needs her tranqs To tell her that the world is clean To promise her a definition Tell her where the rain will fall Tell her where the sun shines bright And tell her she can have it all Today Pass the crystal spread the Tarot In illusion comfort lies The safest way the straight and narrow No confusion no surprise Alice in her party dressed to kill She the thanks you turns away She needs you like she needs her pills To tell her that the world's okay To promise her a definition Tell her where the rain will fall Tell her where the sun shines bright And tell her she can have it all Today Today Alice Don't give it away

Lay me down the long white line Leave the sirens far behind me Paint my name in black and gold My heart my flame my heart my road My heartland fade across the line Heartland sing the faces shining In the failing failing failing Heartland make the places mine Clearly now the past mistakes The giant steps we had to take The path that ever promise made To die in dream dissolve and fade My heartland heartland heartland My heartland heartland heartland My heartland heartland heartland My heartland heartland heartland Behind the lines a face that glimmers Still looking for a face that shines In the promise in the places I'm going to make them mine My heartland heartland heartland My heartland heartland heartland My heartland heartland heartland My heartland heartland heartland My heartland heartland heartland My heartland heartland heartland My heartland heartland heartland My heartland heartland heartland My heartland heartland heartland My heartland heartland heartland My heartland heartland heartland My heartland heartland heartland My heartland heartland heartland My heartland heartland heartland My heartland heartland heartland My heartland heartland heartland My heartland heartland heartland My heartland heartland heartland My heartland heartland heartland My heartland heartland heartland My heartland heartland heartland My heartland heartland heartland My heartland heartland heartland My heartland heartland heartland My heartland heartland heartland My heartland heartland heartland My heartland heartland heartland My heartland heartland heartland My heartland heartland heartland My heartland heartland heartland My heartland heartland heartland My heartland heartland heartland My heartland heartland heartland My heartland heartland heartland My heartland heartland heartland My heartland heartland heartland My heartland heartland heartland My heartland heartland heartland My heartland heartland heartland My heartland-

We'll turn away in a passive decision We'll take the steps through the unmarked door A look back for another collision But the boys of the spires Are boys no more Not black and red boys Frightened by the night By the catholic monochrome The catholic girls now Stark in their dark and white Dread in monochrome The sisters of mercy High tide Wide eyed Sped on adrenochrome For the sisters of mercy Filled with Panic in their eyes Rise Dead on adrenochrome We had the power We had the space We had a sense of time and place We knew the words We knew the score We knew what we were fighting for For the freedom The time to choose But time to think Is time to lose The signals clash And disappear The shade too loud And the sound unclear For the High tide Wide eyed Dread in monochrome Denied in spite Disliked in monochrome Panic in their eyes Rise Dead and monochrome The sisters of mercy Spite On adrenochrome The way is clear The road is closed The damage done And the course Imposed you

Come with me Like a little child Like another gun Like homeless, restless, known to none, like Way beyond the line Like it never was In nineteen fifty-nine
