Lyrics:

There’s a wall in the great divide
Which wire do they cut to blow it
It’s a sleep worm inside the skull
Soft mouth on your brain stem

And it dreams about falling dust
Swirl like an old plastic snow globe
And I dream about the snow as well
Safe locked in your room

Get closer reverse and stop
Fly silent to the icy mountain
Make circles with the lions there
Soft paws and steel blades

This night’s all night (x5)
This night’s on wires
Deep gulp bright eyes
This night’s all night

Neon pinball in my running shoes
Computer in my rib cage
Dancing like honest fools
Fireworks for your rage

And the lions came to the valley
To drink from your perfect lake
If it’s wrong to be here like this
It’s the perfect mistake

This night’s all night (x5)
This night’s on wires
Deep gulp bright eyes
This night’s all night


Tilt over hit like the rain
This heart spits little bolts of lightning
This room gets lost in the burst
Light and dark twist in the rush

This night’s all night (x10)
Quick gulps of fire
This night’s all night

Tunng - The Pioneers:




Lyrics:

If it can be broke then it can be fixed, if it can be fused then it can be split
It's all under control
If it can be lost then it can be won, if it can be touched then it can be turned
All you need is time

We promised the world we'd tame it, what were we hoping for?

A sense of purpose and a sense of skill, a sense of function but a disregard
We will not be the first, we won't
You said you were going to conquer new frontiers,
Go stick your bloody head in the jaws of the beast

We promised the world, we'd tame it, what were we hoping for?

Breath in, breath out

So here we are reinventing the wheel
I'm shaking hands with a hurricane
It's a colour that I can't describe,
It's a language I can't understand
Ambition, tearing out the heart of you
Carving lines into you
Dripping down the sides of you

We will not be the last.

Tunng - Hustle:




Lyrics: 

When I come home, you won’t be there any more
When I come home, you won’t be there any more
And you will tear off your clothes and kiss the floor
When I come home, home, home
When I see land you will conjuror up a storm
When I see land you will conjuror up a storm
And I will tie your hands to the highest mast
When I see land, land, land
And we will hustle, hustle, hustle to be free
Free from all the
Happy thoughts and smiles across the sea
In favour of the
Mean, mean, moves,
And back doors to the heart from where we
Always, always fall apart
And you will slide on the back seat of my bike
And you will slide on the back seat of my bike
And I will ride you home drunken in the rain
and you will win again and again
Now it’s your turn you will tie me to the tree
Now it’s your turn you will tie me to the tree
And you will sing and sing, forever you and me
And in the dark you wonder what I see
And we will hustle, hustle, hustle to be free
Free from all the
Happy thoughts and smiles across the sea
In favour of the
Mean, mean, moves,
And back doors to the heart from where we
Always, always fall apart
Hustle, hustle, hustle…..

Tunng - Bodies:

Tunng - Bodies (A Take Away Show):




Lyrics:

You've grown up so much since I saw you all those days ago
Still got that look about you still got those things that we know
Red gilded place in the woods and the words that were said
Black twisted branches that hid all the things that we did

You threaded wasps on to string and you gave them to me
You touched the edges of their wings and the insides of me
All of the years make a picture that's faded and bright
All of the years make us different and faded and bright

Bring back the bodies and lay them out for me
Smooth down their crisp clear white wings in the morning
Bring back the yellow and black of the bodies
Lay them out slowly and string them up gently for me

Small piles of sticks built up like temples to time in the sun
Beds of green leaves laid out where fear and O negative burn
Strange to see you in a suit but your shoes are still red
Strange to see you at the front after all that you said

Your face changed a long time ago
But you're the same underneath this sleet
That whirls around like a line between worlds
And there are birds in here singing lullabies to me
About bodies and you and me and all that we've seen
And you and all that you've seen

Bring back the bodies and open them for me
Lift out their shimmering hearts in the morning
Bring back the yellow and black of the ocean
Let me out slowly and sing to me coldly
Bring back the yellow and black of the bodies
Let me in slowly and string me up sensitively

Tunng - Bullets:

Tunng - Bullets (Live):
 



Lyrics:

Green hills and enemies
These things they make us sentimental inside
Your words are gelignite
Or just another sentimental aside

We're catching bullets in our teeth
And though it's easy when you know how it's done
They split the secret up six ways before they gave it to us just before dawn
And now we don't remember
 
Our blood and guts are out
We spread our bones across the table at night
We cut our fingers off
To give ourselves those little extra insights

We're catching bullets in our teeth
And though they try hard not to say how it's done
They always do
They spill the secret out six ways
And beg for our forgiveness
Just before dawn
And now we don't remember

We're catching bullets in our teeth
It's hard to do but they're so sweet
And if they take a couple out
We try to work things out
We catching bullets with our
Heads and hearts and all the darkest parts of us
It's strange to find such light
In such endless night

So sweet to lose a friend
You leave the church and taste
The air in your lungs
Old lies and fireflies
Carve angels on your eyes
And all is undone
You whisper prayers into the dark
Up to a god in whom you've never believed
You always do
You split the secret up six ways
But it won't make it any easier to see
And now we don't remember

We're catching bullets in our teeth
Its hard to do but they're so sweet
And if they take a couple out
We try to work things out
We're catching bullets with our
Heads and hearts and all the darkest parts of us
It's strange to find such light
In such endless night
We're catching bullets in our backs
We sent the undertaker back
Into the garden in the drought
To try to work things out
We're catching bullets with the best resources that we've got
We're happy then again we're not
We shout - through the endless doubt
