BIG BRIGHT WORLD
By
Garbage

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

We are difficult to understand
It was hard to make this simple plan work
Difficult, but that’s what made it burn

You’re a satellite around my heart
One million before the start
Indescribable, but that’s what makes it you

Shivers up and down my spine
Feet to the teeth
Inside this big, bright world
Inside this big, bright world
Inside this big, bright world
We rage against the dying
Rage against the dying light

You’re mysterious, you make no sense
I love you ’cause you’re innocent
You fell out through a hole inside the sun

So magnify the best inside me
Build the parts that you can’t find me
The parts that won’t give out when things get hard

Shivers up and down my spine
Feet to the teeth
Inside this big, bright world
Inside this big, bright world
Inside this big, bright world

Round and around in the setting sun
Round and around in the setting sun
Round and around in the setting sun
Round and around and around and around and around

Inside this big, bright world
Inside this big, bright world
Inside this big, bright world
Rage against the dying
Rage against the dying light

I’m with you

BELOVED FREAK

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

You’re not certain when you feel hurt
Get violent when you deal
With how the world drags you along
You’re not alone

Nothing good was ever free
No one gets it, no one sees
So here you stand, beloved freak
You’re not alone
You’re not alone
You’re not alone
Sometimes we get so tired and weak
We lose the sky beneath our feet
You’re not alone

Every comet throws an arc
And scars our vision ‘cross the dark
When we’re gone we will remain
You’re not alone

People lie and people steal
They misinterpret how you feel
And so we doubt and we conceal
You’re not alone

Don’t worry for me
Just think of yourself, think of yourself
Don’t worry for me
Just think of yourself, think of yourself

When we’re gone we will remain
When we’re gone we will remain
When we’re gone we will remain
When we’re gone we will remain

So here you stand, beloved freak
The world is at your feet
Here you stand, beloved freak
The world is at your feet

This little light of mine
I’m going to let it shine
This little light of mine
I’m going to let it shine
This little light of mine
I’m going to let it shine
Let it shine, let it shine, let it shine

And so you stand, beloved freak
The world is lying at your feet
There you stand, beloved freak
Let it shine, let it shine, let it shine

FELT

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

Felt sure you felt something
Felt sure, but it really was nothing.
You felt, but you’re only guessing.
They’re only feelings baby, they’re only feelings.

Felt I’d left you hanging.
Felt sure I’d stopped myself caring.
You felt, that I’d stopped believing
They’re only feelings baby, they’re only feelings.

What is real? Is real reason?
What is real? Is real reason?
What is real? Is real reason?
What is real?
I still get you. Do you still get me?

Felt my skin on your skin.
Felt sure, sensations like raining.
You felt no logical thinking.
They’re only feelings baby, they’re only feelings.

Lo-lo-lo-lo-lo
Lo-lo-lo-lo-lo
Lo-lo-lo-lo-lo
Lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo
Lo-lo-lo-lo-lo

SUGAR

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

Give me sugar
Give me, something sweet
I’ve spent a lifetime
Feelin’ incomplete
If I sound bitter
Or if I come too late
Please reconsider
I don’t need much on my plate
Just give me sugar

Don’t come close, please keep at a distance,
Look but don’t touch till the light goes on
Silence in line and please wait at the window
Don’t touch the glass till the curtain calls

Wait, wait… don’t make me wait
Wait, wait… don’t make me wait
Just give me sugar

Give me sugar
Give me, something deep
Don’t make a habit
Of crawling on my knees
But this is different
Can’t you see I’m in control
This is the moment
Where all your dreams have flown
Just give me sugar

Don’t come close, please keep at a distance,
Look but don’t touch till the light goes on
Silence in line and please wait at the window
Don’t touch the glass till the curtain calls

Wait, wait… don’t make me wait
Wait, wait… don’t make me wait
Just give me sugar

To hook her on
Sugar to hook her on
Some sugar to hook her on
Sugar to hook her on

Oh won’t someone love me
Won’t someone love me
Won’t someone love me
Oh won’t someone love me
Like you
Like you
Like you
Like you
Someone like you

CONTROL

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

The world might end,
The night might fall.
Rain on down and cover us all,
And drown us with the burdens of our sins.
Maybe I’ll look you in the eye,
Tell you, you don’t wanna die.
Maybe I’ll hold my breath and jump right in.
Maybe I’ll hold my breath and jump right in.

I never saw you coming from inside my little prison,
Your autograph would really buy me time.
If you think you are the reason,
Give me something to believe in.
It’s always darkest right before the dawn.
It’s always darkest right before the dawn.

I confess I’ve lost control,
I let my guard down,
I let the truth out.
Oh I confess I’ve lost control,
I let my guard down,
I let the truth out.

The final celebration,
A bad hallucination.
Flip a coin and see which way I fall,
The shark tail is singing.
We love to watch him killing,
And suffer through a never ending day.
Suffer through a never ending day.

I can feel I’ve lost control,
I let my guard down,
I let the truth out.
Oh I can feel I’ve lost control,
You let your guard down,
You let the truth out.

I was trapped like a prisoner in my skin.
I was punished like an enemy for my sins.
I was blind,
I was caged,
And I was tricked,
And I was suffocating.
I was suffocating.

I can feel I’ve lost control,
Oh I can feel we’ve lost control.
I was suffocating.
I confess I’ve lost control,
And I was suffocating.
If I was suffocating,
I can feel we’ve lost control.
Feel my hunger.
Feel my hunger.

Oooh… oooh… oooh… oooh…

I was suffocating

Oooh… oooh… oooh… oooh…

Yeah right from the start you had me hooked
And I knew I was falling
And sure you had me sussed
You worked me out
You took me right out no doubt

Call me a lawyer
I want to micro manage
I need a hit man
Get me the operator
Call me a doctor
I cannot lose control
There must be someone
A robot, a terminator?
He got me eye balled
He got me tied down
He got me roller coaster
Help me man down
Don’t wanna talk about it
I know a lot about it
He got me on the ropes and I don’t like it

You might be the one, the one for me
You might be the one, the one for me
You might be the one for me
You might be
The one

You know what I want
You see me sweat and lose all confidence
And you, you mess me up
I’m back to front
You know I want you don’t you?
