People lyrics by Technicolour

1. Don´t you know (your secret´s safe with me)

We're walked on this beat, for so many years I know you've always had my back and that's why I'm here You've been on the take but I won't judge you You've got a family to feed and a cop's pay won't bull trought See the red lights flashing, Hear the sirens calling We are modern knights in blue Wo oh oh, don't you know Your secrets safe with me Wo oh oh, don't you know I can pretend that I don't see Wo oh oh, don't you know Your secrets safe with me Wo oh oh, don't you know Your secters safe, your secrets safe with me These guys in their suits they don't mess around They've been grilling me for hours but I ain't no sell out We are modern knights in blue Wo oh oh, don't you know Your secrets safe with me Wo oh oh, don't you know I can pretend that I don't see Wo oh oh, don't you know Your secrets safe with me Wo oh oh, don't you know Your secters safe, your secrets safe with me

2. Can I get to heaven

Desert night, I watch the sky, the air is full of fireflies. See the cross, the cresent moon, the star of david white and blue. Satellites looking down I'm still stuck here on the ground And I fear deep inside all these wounds are mutch too wide Can I get to heaven before they close the door Can I get to heaven Try to go up, but falling down Can I get to heaven before they close the door Can I get to heaven Try to go up, but falling down I will pay for fathers sins, I might survive, but no one wins I will hide my wife and son, so they won't know the things I've done. '..As for me. My covenant is with tree and thee shall be father of many nations..' Can I get to heaven before they close the door Can I get to heaven Try to go up, but falling down Can I get to heaven before they close the door Can I get to heaven Try to go up, but falling down I shall, not want. I shall, not want. I shall, not want. I shall, not want. Can I get to heaven before they close the door Can I get to heaven Try to go up, but falling down Can I get to heaven before they close the door Can I get to heaven Try to go up, but falling down falling down... but falling down... falling down...

3. Get up

I used to wear nothing but black And I found it hard to smile back I haven't chanced how come I ain't the same Gotta find a new way to stay in the game Come on, Come on, Come on. Get up, get up can you see what I see Get up, get up can you feel what I feel Get up, get up whatcha gonna do about it Get up, get up can you, can you, can you see? can you see? From 9 to 5 I was asleep Then I found myself out on the street They haven't chanced how come I ain't the same Gotta find a new way to stay in the game Come on, Come on, Come on. Get up, get up can you see what I see Get up, get up can you feel what I feel Get up, get up whatcha gonna do about it Get up, get up can you, can you, can you see? can you see? Get on feet, everybody up on feet And get on feet, everybody up on feet Get on feet everybody up on feet And get on feet, everybody up on feet Get on feet, everybody up on feet And get on feet, everybody up on feet Get on feet everybody up on feet And get on feet, everybody up on feet

4. Someday

I fell in love with a puertorical girl But it's hard, we live in diffrent worlds Mama said 'don't you even start' So-called friends are tearing us apart Oh my God, we're tunning out of time C'mon, nothings gonna chance, C'mon, let's get away C'mon, we could be together, Someday, someday, someday Your old man, he didn't understand Said to me 'live and don't come back' Then he sent your brother after me We need to run, so take only, what you need Oh my God, we're tunning out of time C'mon, nothings gonna chance, C'mon, let's get away C'mon, we could be together, Someday, someday, someday Oh my love, we don't have much time

5. Michael Jackson

Dangerous! Ain't got no business beeing here. I saind it's dangerous I feel the time is drawing near Will ya get up on the floor and do your thing, Everybody's jumping like it aint no fun So don't avoind the lightning and don't feel ne fear 'Cos friend one thing is clear Everybody is getting down, Moonwalking all around Chain reaction, Chain reaction, Chain reaction, dance like Michael Jackson Dangerous! It's getting really hot in here I saind it's dangerous I've got this tinging in my ear Will ya get up on the floor and do your thing, Everybody's jumping like it aint no fun So don't avoind the lightning and don't feel ne fear 'Cos friend one thing is clear Everybody is getting down, Moonwalking all around Chain reaction, Chain reaction, Chain reaction, dance like Michael Jackson

6. Tears in the rain

My old friend, it's time, to turn the page. There's no room for us, in this coming age Like tears in the rain, it all fades away. Like tears in the rain, gone without a trace. Can I live with my one regret Got a son that I've never met... Like tears in the rain, it all fades away. Like tears in the rain, gone without a trace

7. Are you alive?

Lights out and you go home And you feel so, all lone 'Cos your dog died and your girl left, But you won't cry, you won't cry Are you alive? I wanna know Need some helping, letting go Are you alive? Need the rain To wash these blues away It's been almost six months And you haven't been outside I got a number for this great shrink He'll put you right, put you right Are you alive? I wanna know Need some helping, letting go Are you alive? Need the rain To wash these blues away So you haven't really slept in three whole days Your home is a jungle and you mind is a maze You got bloodshot eyes and a shirt full of stains And now all you do is Pop a pill, close your eyes, take a sec until the pain dies, But it won't heal what you feel inside Jekylls dead day hello to Mr. Hyde

8. On my knees

Told myself a bunch of lies You did the same, saw it in your eyes That's how we ended up on this one way street Haven't slept in three whole days This empty bed just ain't the same Stuff like this can sweep a man off his feet You've got me on my knees Nothing left to feel, baby can't you see? Nothing left to steal You've got me on my knees I'm don't know just how I'll deal With all the things that time won't heal Both of us got burned so bad in the end And I don't care if it's day of night 'Cos we won't get trought it without a fight You've got me on my knees Nothing left to feel, baby can't you see? Nothing left to steal You've got me on my knees, knees. You've got me on my knees, knees. Just let me go, Just let me go.

9. Turn away

You gave me this name from the bible you'd quote You triend to instill my morals by rote You lay on the couch watching TV You don't seem to know, what's inside of me Try to stay out as late as I can Sometimes it's hard, to be my own man I tried and tried to be someone I'm not And this bruised ego is all that I got We run out of time, we run out of time, we run out of time Just turn away sometimes it all falls down Just turn away before it all fades out We run out of time You're never there when I call on the phone There's a martyr in me that's so finely honed When I go by your house I don't knock the door I stand there outside I don't live here anymone We run out of time, we run out of time, we run out of time Just turn away sometimes it all falls down Just turn away before it all fades out We run out of time.

10. Forever

Long ago my old man told me a story He said: 'This was once a great land whith men of glory' In the end they'd slowly fade away Of miracles and rust but we are just shadows and dust Forever, forever Time has passed, days go by but it's getting hazy Spend my nights, talking with the ghosts of Mary In the end I'll slowly fade away Diamonds never rust, but we are just shadows and dust Forever, forever We are just shadows and dust, nothing but shadows and dust Forever.
