Love Hurts lyrics - Incubus

Tonight we drink to youth

And holding fast to truth

(I don't want to lose what I had as a boy.)

My heart still has a beat

But love is now a feat.

(As common as a cold day in LA.)

Sometimes when I'm alone, I wonder

Is there a spell that I am under

Keeping me from seeing the real thing?

Love hurts...

But sometimes it's a good hurt

And it feels like I'm alive.

Love sings,

When it transcends the bad things.

Have a heart and try me,

'cause without love I won't survive.

I'm fettered and abused,

I stand naked and accused

(Should I surface this one man submarine?)

I only want the truth

So tonight we drink to youth!

(I'll never lose what I had as a boy.)

Sometimes when I'm alone I wonder

Is there a spell that I am under

Keeping me from seeing the real thing?

Love hurts...

But sometimes it's a good hurt

And it feels like I'm alive.

Love sings,

When it transcends the bad things.

Have a heart and try me,

'cause without love I won't survive.

Light Grenades lyrics - Incubus

We're given a garden,

And gave back a parking lot

(We got about fifteen minutes to go...)

Before this audience starts

Throwing tomatoes, yeah!

(It's not the end, there is more show!

We got about fifteen minutes to go!)

Survived the plague

Floated the flood

Just peeked our heads above the mud

No one's immune

Deafening bells,

My God, will we survive ourselves!?

I'm not an alarmist

But someone should break the glass

(and pull that red T-lever down!)

To get their attention

start lobbing the Light Grenades

(that burst and blinf them with the truth,

An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth!)

Survived hte plague

Floated the flood

Just peeked our heads above the mud

No one's immune

Deafening bells,

My God, will we survive ourselves!?

Survived hte plague

Floated the flood

Just peeked our heads above the mud

Wip off your face, we've come this far

Come on! Remember who you are!

(Remember! Remember!)

Come on! Remember who you are!

(Remember! Remember!)

Come on! Remember who you are!!!

Earth To Bella, Pt. 1 lyrics - Incubus

Earth to Bella,

You think you've got it all figured in,

Earth to Bella,

Everything you know is wrong. Well, almost

Earth to Bella,

I've seen when you are not listening

I bear the burden

Of being the voice that lets you know

We all grow old,

And before you swim you gotta be ok to sink.

Earth to Bella,

The world can be an unfriendly place.

SO hold your head up

And do your best to save some face.

It's not so hard...

Just undo yourself and see a

Second sun ascend.

I'm ok to sink

ok to sink

Im ok to sink

ok to sink.

Oil And Water lyrics - Incubus

You and I are like oil and water

And we've been trying, trying trying

Ohhhh, to mix it up.

We've been dancing on a volcano

And we've been crying, crying, crying

Over blackened souls.

Babe, this wouldn't be the first time,

it will not be the last time.

There is no parasol that would shelter this weather.

I been smiling with anchors on my shoulders

But I've been dying, dying, dying

Ohh, Ohh, Oh to let them go.

Babe, this wouldn't be the first time,

it will not be the last time.

There is no parasol that would shelter this weather.

Babe, this wouldn't be the first time,

it will not be the last time.

We were trying to believe that everything would get better.

We've been lying to each other

Hey! Babe! Let's just call it what it is!

Oil and Water!

Oil and Water!

Oil and Water!

Diamonds And Coal lyrics - Incubus

If it's good to complicate then both of us are doing fine.

Just keep your eyes on your part and leave me alone to mine.

If it's good to instigate, we're a fast horse, bet on us.

I'm not calling you an animal;I think we just fight too much.

Hey now, in spite of this we're doing just fine

Even diamonds start as coal.

Give us time to shine,

Even diamonds start as coal.

We're both aligned in frame of mind

But circumstance got us good.

And now you're seeing a side of me

I wish no one ever would.

Yeah, if it's right to pick a fight, we're

Fingers in a sugar bowl.

Love isn't perfect, even diamonds start as coal.

Come on, in spite of this we're doing just fine

Even diamonds start as coal.

Give us time to shine,

Even diamonds start as coal.

Even diamonds start as coal.

We're incomplete and infantine

Even diamonds start as coal.

Give it time girl, the fire feels divine

The sweetest things, they burn before they shine.

We think way too much,

Look at us losing touch!

A promise is a promise until...

Yeah in spite of this we're doing just fine

Even diamonds start as coal.

Give us time to shine,

Even diamonds start as coal.

Even diamonds start as coal.

We're incomplete and infantine

Even diamonds start as coal.

Rogues lyrics - Incubus

I'm keeping an eye on the future

An eye on the past

And the present in my pocket

Just in case I need a door...

Into a brave new world

Where all solutions end up with my head

Buried to my neck in sand.

Enough, enough bowing down to disillusion!

Hats off and applause to Rogues and Evolution!

The ripple effect is too good not to mention

If you're not affected then you're not paying attention!

It's too good, too good, not to have an effect.

I'm keeping an eye on the pulse

An ear to the track and

Penance in a locket

I'm dropping from the highest floor

When it hits the ground

I watch it smash to pieces

Songs of liberation

Echo from the dust

The dust 

Enough, enough bowing down to disillusion!

Hats off and applause to Rogues and Evolution!

The ripple effect is too good not to mention

If you're not affected then you're not paying attention!

It's too good, too good, not to have an effect!

Enough,Enough,Enough,Enough,Enough!

Enough, enough bowing down to disillusion!

Hats off and applause to Rogues and Revolution!

The ripple effect is too good not to mention

If you're not affected then you're not paying attention!

It's too good, too good, too good...yes.

Paper Shoes lyrics - Incubus

I fly

i soar

This I adore

And then like a locomotive

The sound of your sorrow comes.

I'm tired of the way it feels

I only apologized to you to make you feel better

But I think I've outgrown that horsehair sweater.

I'd rather be alone

You're bout as reliable as paper shoes in bad weathers,

But pain will roll off like water on feathers.

You'd fly,you'd soar

But then like a locomotive

The sound of your sorrow comes.

I'm tired of the way it feels

I only apologized to you to make you feel better

But I think I've outgrown that horsehair sweater.

I'd rather be on my own

You're bout as reliable as paper shoes in bad weathers,

But pain will roll off like water on feathers.

I'm tired of the way it feels

I only apologized to you to make you feel better

But I think I've outgrown that horsehair sweater.

I'd rather be alone

You're bout as reliable as paper shoes in bad weathers,

But pain will roll off like water on feathers.

Pendulous Threads lyrics - Incubus

Mend this careless thread, it's gone askew.

(Thread on my sweater is pendulous, step back and pull it.

Watch it unravel faster than a speeding bullet)

Or pull and see how much we can undo.

(Thread on my sweater is pendulous, step back and pull it.

Watch it unravel faster than a speeding buller)

On a burning bridge, your options are minimal at best. 

Depending on where you're standing

and how much breath is in your chest.

If it came down to it

would you high-tail home and hide?

Or dance on fire and enjoy the ride?

Mend this careless thread, it's gone askew.

(Thread on my sweater is pendulous, step back and pull it.

Watch it unravel faster than a speeding bullet!)

Or pull and see how much we can undo.

(Thread on my sweater is pendulous, step back and pull it.

Watch it unravel faster than a speeding bullet!)

At the heart of it all

that innermost, your fiery core

there;s an amassing armor

and it's building you into a bore.

Life's a match in a gas tank

don't ever mourn the ebbing tide

just dance on fire and enjoy the ride!

Hey!

Mend this careless thread, it's gone askew.

(Thread on my sweater is pendulous, step back and pull it.

Watch it unravel faster than a speeding bullet!)

Or pull and see how much we can undo.

(Thread on my sweater is pendulous, step back and pull it.

Watch it unravel faster than a speeding bullet!)

Earth To Bella, Pt. 2 lyrics - Incubus

Earth to Bella

This is a quiet emergency

Earth to Bella

There's so much more to get then wronged

Earth to Bella

You're treading water successfully

But are you really?

Don't you want to see the deep?

It's not so hard

Just forgive yourself and feel the water open in

Punch Drunk lyrics - Incubus

Did I park my car? 

If I found it I would drive so far from here 

The city streets are dim 

And my hands are tempted once again 

To give in... 

I'm having trouble seeing 

I'm punch drunk and 

I need to find a way back home 

It'd be a miracle if you'd oblige 

I will survive 

On this island i am stuck 

Could you correct my crooked luck tonight? 

On the road my thumb is out 

I'm hitchin home tonight I am without a name 

Where was it that I lived? 

Well nevermind just take me with you 

And forget... 

The lack of information 

I'm punch drunk and 

I need to find a way back home 

It'd be a miracle if you'd oblige 

I will survive 

On a silent I am stuck 

Could you correct my crooked luck tonight? 

I will survive 

Tonight I wander and I roam 

Just lookin for a way back home tonight 

The sun is coming up 

I think I've had my fill 

Wait, who the fuck are you? 

Where did I park my car? 

Please forgive my... 

Lack of information 

I'm punch drunk and 

I need to find a way back home 

It'd be a miracle, ohhh 

I'm having trouble seeing 

I'm punch drunk and 

I need to find a way back home 

It'd be a mircale if you'd oblige 

I will survive 

On this island I am stuck 

Could you correct my crooked luck tonight? 

I will survive 

Tonight I wander and I roam 

Just lookin for a way back home tonight 

Spare me... a ride, a ride tonight 

Spare me... a ride, a ride tonight 

(On this island I am stuck 

Could you correct my crooked luck tonight?)
