"Euphoria Morning" (1999)

Can't Change Me lyrics - Chris Cornell

She can do anything at all
Have anything she pleases
The power to change what she thinks is wrong
But what could she want with me? Yeah,
Wait, just, one minute here
I can see that she's trying to read me
Suddenly I know,

[Chorus]
She's going to change the world [x3]
But she can't change me,
No, she can't change me

She has the daylight at her command
She gives the night it's dreams, yeah
She can uncover your darkest fear,
and make you forget you feel it.
But wait, just, one minute more,
I can see that she's trying to free me
Suddenly I know

[Chorus]

[Bridge]
Suddenly I can see everything that's wrong,
With me, yeah.
What can I do, I'm the only thing I really have, at all.

But wait, just, one minute here,
I can see that she's trying to need me
Suddenly I know

[Chorus]

Flutter Girl lyrics - Chris Cornell

I'm drinking dust,
with eyes of rust,
tonight my tears might stain your wings,
so flutter home,
cause you're better off alone,
than with me...

[chorus]
Flutter girl,
you don't wanna know what I live,
you don't wanna take what I give,
cause I give nothing for free

My hands are rough,
my fingers cold,
and your heart's so young and so naive,
to ever feel,
for a moment that I might dare,
to believe...

[chorus]

[bridge]
I'll tear your wings,
as I melt in your smile,
as I run all your colors away...

[chorus]

Preaching The End Of The World lyrics - Chris Cornell

Hello, I know there's someone out there,
who can understand, and whose feeling,
the same way as me.
I'm 24, and I've got everything to live for,
but I know now, that it wasn't meant to be.
Cause all has been lost and,
all has been won,
and there's nothing left for us to save.
But now I know that I don't wanna be alone today,
so if you're finding, that you're feeling just the same...

[chorus]
Call me now it's alright,
It's just the end of the world.
You need a friend in the world,
cause you can't hide.
So call and I'll get right back,
if your intentions are pure,
I'm seeking a friend, for the end, of the world.

I've got a photograph I send it off today,
you will see that, I am perfectly sane.
Not for a lifetime or forever any day,
cause we know now, that just won't be the case.

[chorus]

[bridge]
With no commitment and no confessions and,
no little secrets to keep.
No little children or,
houses with roses,
just the end of the world and me.

Cause all has been gone and, all has been done,
and there's nothing left for us to say.
But we could be together as they blow it all away
and we could share in every moment as it breaks.

[chorus]

Follow My Way lyrics - Chris Cornell

Little one don't be a fool,
I'm a wreck when I look mighty.
In Euphoria I'm bruised,
In confusion next I'm lightning.
In complacence I am small,
through oblivion I'm charged.

[chorus]
So follow my way,
when I'm not leading anyone.
Open and frayed,
when you can see that I'm unsure.
Out on my way,
I'm only pure when I get lost,
and you're only needing when you're finding that I'm not...

You're just looking for a boy,
bathed in infrared and sunlight.
I'm all polish and reward,
when I'm confidant I hopeless.
Just like everybody else,
right before they fall apart.

[chorus, different from the 1st]
So follow my way,
when I am falling from your heart.
When I'm the pain,
fever and sweet relief in one.
Out on my way,
though I'm not worthy of your trust.
Follow me down into a swan dive,
all eyes closed tight...

[bridge]
Lowly, slowly, now I know I love where you go when you're gone...
Warm your hands inside my veins,
I might be contagious,
through oblivion I charge.

[chorus]
So follow my my way,
when I am useless to your cause.
When I derail,
calm in the patience of remorse.
Out on my way,
Out on my empty open nerves.
When all you know is that I don't know where we are.
When all you know is that I don't know,
Follow my way...

When I'm Down lyrics - Chris Cornell

What say you now?
The door is, opening,
on your vigil,
and I'm in my usual way.
I'll save my breath, knowing,
what you're wanting me to say,
"I only love you, when I'm down"

You say that midnight,
opens it's song for me,
leaving you alone,
and then I fly so far away,
until the light blurs my vision,
and I have nowhere to roam,
I only love you when I'm down...

[chorus]
And I only love you when I'm down.
And I'm only near you when I'm gone.
But one thing for you to keep in mind, you know,
that I'm down, all the time,
all the time...

[bridge]
I know you're reaching out,
and you need to feel my hand,
you wanna be loved,
yeah, well I understand.
I know you hold,
precious little hope for me,
and in your happiness,
I'm always drowning in my grief.

[chorus]

Mission lyrics - Chris Cornell

Pulled through you and drowning in your swirl.
Circling, unfolding in your will.
I'm gonna glide on the winds of your breathing,
and alight on your gaurded heart,
I'm gonna tear all your temples down...

[chorus]
I'm on a mission now, [x2]

Smoldering down inside your mood.
Slithering, and fanning in your eyes.
I'm gonna dive through your crying and sleep in your hair,
Rise from your ashes and kneel in your prayers,
tear all your temples down...

[chorus, x2]

[bridge]
I have nothing but then, the have is not as good as the want...
I'm gonna glide on the winds of your breathing.
Writhe in your calm and provide your release.
And reside in the heart of your strongest beliefs.
Tear all your temples down...

I'm on a mission now [x4]
And I have nothing, but then the have is not as good as the want...

Wave Goodbye lyrics - Chris Cornell

Words get tangled on you tongue,
and you stumble on your feet -
when you miss somebody.
And everywhere you think you see them,
walking down the street -
when you miss somebody.
When you miss somebody,
you tell yourself a hundred thousand times,
"Nobody ever lives forever,"
so you give it one more try:
To wave goodbye, wave goodbye...

Every hurtful thing you ever said is ringing in your ear,
when you miss somebody.
And every thing of beauty that you see -
it only brings a tear,
when you miss somebody.
Yeah, when you miss somebody,
you tell yourself that everything will be alright.
You try to stand up strong and brave,
but all you wanna do, is lay down and die.

[bridge]
How long I've waited for an answer or a sign...
Lonley and weary from this troubles task of trying,
to wave goodbye.

So now you start to recognize that every single path you see,
leads to a tear in your eye.
So wave goodbye...
Wave goodbye.

Moonchild lyrics - Chris Cornell

Open your arms to the lonely shine.
Lonesome as gold in the poor man's smile.
See how the moon is full,
follow the push and pull,
follow the ebb and flow in the breathing tide.

[chorus]
Come on, Moonchild.
You're so far away tonight.
The door is falling open and we're flying wild.

Cat on the road.
Down in the living night.
See how the black dog grins,
in the diamond light.
We're dreaming and we're real.
We're broken and we're healed.
Give in to what you feel,
over what you see.

[chorus]

[bridge]
And when "if" is only "yes" and "no,"
It now becomes too soon,
I know,
You'll be alright,
if you'd only,
come away in the moon,
yeah,
come away in the moon,
in the blue shine.

[chorus]

Come on moonflower,
you're so far away from now,
You could bloom forever in the hour,
you could bloom forever in the hour...

Sweet Euphoria lyrics - Chris Cornell

Sweet Euphoria,
mine is the heart you own.
You lost the grace of the hands that harmed you,
in the daze of a thousand yawns.
Lost my love,
as it is I'm truly gone.
In your morning I will sleep,
Fire on an open palm.
Death for Jesus and plastic armies,
Wouldn't bring me back again.
Sweet as ether eyes I'm blind to them.

Gone are you dandelions,
falling like mine -
Falling on land-mind, pillows.
Tired angels save my love for the lasting one.

Sweet Euphoria,
mine is heart you stole.
Touched and broken are the things you love,
using stars to light your candles.
Warms my face but I can't remember yours.
Gone are your dandelions, falling like mine,
falling like daydream mangos,
diving swallows.
Save my love,
save my love,
save my love,
for the lasting one.
Sweet Euphoria.

Disappearing One lyrics - Chris Cornell

What have you done,
with my little spark?
Cursing my name,
because again I put you out.
Falling apart,
you tell yourself you are,
dreaming only of the ones who never dream of you.

[chorus]
I'm your disappearing one -
Vanish when the curtain's drawn.
But I will come again, and you will let me in,
and you'll see I never disappear for long.

Into your room,
I stumble now.
Too tired to cower and it's too late to draw you out.
And there you lie like a painting of Christ,
bleeding on the heads of the ones who nailed you down.

[chorus]

Pillow Of Your Bones lyrics - Chris Cornell

The embers of the saint inside of you,
are growing as I'm bathing in your glow.
I'm swallowing the poison of your flower,
and hanging on the rising of my low.

[chorus]
Colorful, and falling from your mouth,
like a painted fever in recoil,
like a lie without the pain.
On a pillow of your bones,
I will lay across the stones
of your shore until the tide comes crawling back.
Throw the pillow on the fire,
make my bed under the eye,
of your moon until the tide comes crawling back.

A waning hand on silver granite ways,
will men my broken limbs and bend my haze.
I'm sleeping in the silence of your voice,
I'm cradling the peril of my only choice.

[chorus]

[bridge]
Even though the truth can burn inside,
or fall behind.
I will wander through your open mind,
and you will find,
no lie can hide.

[chorus]

Steel Rain lyrics - Chris Cornell

And so we start another day together,
You and I and the million miles between.
I train my moods to bloom like flowers unfolding,
instead of fluttering around.
And slowly drowning in the...

[chorus]
Steel rain, it's taking over [x3]

The sky is open and the drones are pouring out.
The day inhales in a contagious yawn.
And there you smile as though the sun were bouncing in the...

[chorus]

[bridge]
Here in the little world, the tiny world spins for me,
All's well in the tilted world but there's something falling down,
in the...

[chorus]

Sunshower lyrics - Chris Cornell

Dark as roses, fine as sand
Feel your healing and your sting again
I hear you laughing and my soul is saved
On forgotten graves you cry

Crawl like ivy up my spine
Through my nerves and into my eyes
Cuts like anguish
Or recollections of better days gone by

But its all right
When you're caught in pain
And you feel the rain come down
Its all right
When you find your way
Then you see it disappear
Its all right
Though your gardens grey
I know all your graces
Someday will flower
In the sweet sunshower

Eyes like oceans so far away
A feather trail to a better way
Worried mornings turn into days
Then into worried nights

But its all right
When you're all in pain
And you feel the rain come down
Oh its all right
When you find your way
Then you see it disappear
Oh its all right
Though your gardens gray
I know all your graces
Someday will flower
Oh in the sweet sunshower
Oh in the sweet sunshower
In the sweet sunshower

I know all your graces
Someday will flower
In the sweet sunshower
And its all right
All you'll be you are today
Are today
Its all right
All you'll be you are today
Are today.........

Can't Change Me (French Version) lyrics - Chris Cornell

Elle fait ce que bon lui semble
Et ce qui lui chante
Le pouvoir de de changer ce qui est mal
Qu'est-ce qu'elle ferait avec moi

Mais attendez trente secondes
Essaierait-elle de me liberer
(Maintenant je sais...)

Qu'elle changera le monde
Qu'elle changera le monde
Qu'elle changera le monde
Mais elle ne peut pas me changer

Elle fait naître la lumière chaque jour
Elle donne des rêves à la nuit
Elle met à nu tes pires cauchemars
Oublie que tu vis avec

Mais attendez trente secondes
Essaierait-elle de me liberer
(Maintenant je sais)

Qu'elle changera le monde
Qu'elle changera le monde
Qu'elle changera le monde
mais elle ne peut pas me changer
non, elle ne peut pas me changer

And suddenly I can see everything that's wrong chez moi yeah
But what can I do je suis tout ce que j'ai au monde...
Pour tout...

'Til The Sun Comes Back Around lyrics - Chris Cornell

[from "13 Hours: The Secret Soldiers Of Benghazi" soundtrack] 

 Come to me in my darkest hour
When the sun goes down
And the fact that I never wandered
On unfamiliar ground
Maybe I'm walking on the wild
That can never leave me out

So I hold tight to the edge of the night
And I fight on and wait for the light
And I hold fast to the here and the now
Till the sun comes back around

How could I let so many miles
Come between our hearts
Does it beat for the loving side
When the fighting starts

Taught me well to unleash hell
But not how to shut it down

So I hold tight to the edge of the night
And I fight on and wait for the light
And I hold fast to the here and the now
Till the sun comes back around

Thoughts of you cut through the doom
As I stand alone on this wall
If I die, tell me will it matter
Whichever side I have on the fall?
No my dear, it won't matter at all
Oh my dear, it won't matter

Thoughts that flash in the calm
That casts long shadows of doubt
No matter how far down your heart
They just spill our lives

So I hold tight to the edge of the night
And I fight on and wait for the light
And I hold fast to the here and the now

Hope that tomorrow is found
And I'm standing here
When the sun comes back around

Nothing Compares 2 U lyrics - Chris Cornell

(originally by Prince)

It's been seven hours and fifteen days
Since you took your love away
I go out all night and sleep all day
Since you took your love away

Since you been gone I can do whatever I want
I can see who ever I choose
I can eat my dinner in a fancy restaurant
But nothing nothing can take away these blues

Cause nothing compares
Nothing compares to you

It's been so lonely without you here
Like a bird without a song
Nothing can stop these lonely tears from falling
Tell me where did I go wrong

I could put my arms around any girl I choose
But it just reminds me of you
I went to the doctor and guess what it told me
Said, "Boy, you better try to have fun no matter what you do."
But he's a fool

Cause nothing compares
Nothing compares to you

All the flowers that you planted, mama
In your back yard
All died when you went away
And I know living with me baby is sometimes hard
But I'm willing to give it another try

Cause nothing compares
Nothing compares to you
Nothing compares
Nothing compares to you
To you

Seasons lyrics - Chris Cornell

Summer nights and long warm days
Are stolen as the old moon falls
My mirror shows another face
Another place to hide it all
Another place to hide it all

And I'm lost behind
The words I'll never find
And I'm left behind
As seasons roll on by

Sleeping with a full moon blanket
Sand and feathers for my head
Dreams have never been the answer
And dreams have never made my bed
Dreams have never made my bed

And I'm lost behind
The words I'll never find
And I'm left behind
As seasons roll on by

Now I wanna fly above the storm
But you can't grow feathers in the rain
And the naked floor is cold as hell
This naked floor reminds me
Oh the naked floor reminds me

And I'm lost behind
Words I'll never find
And I'm left behind
As seasons roll on by

If I should be short on words
And long on things to say
Could you crawl into my world
And take me worlds away?
Should I be beside myself
And not even stay

And I'm lost behind
Words I'll never find
And I'm left behind
As seasons roll on by

Stop Me lyrics - Chris Cornell

I told you not to make me mad please
When I get mad you wouldn't like me
I turn into some kind of a monster
Go out to the bar and I do bad things

Now I'm outta control
I know
There's gon' be casualties
And when I get goin'
Let them know
You're the only who can stop me (Help, help)
You're the only who can stop me (Help, help)
You're the only who can stop me (Help, help)
When I fall I need you around me (Help, help)
You're the only who can stop me (Help, help)
Stop me (Help, help)
Stop me (Help, help)
Stop me (Help, help)
Stop me (Help, help)

Step on the floor I end up falling
I try to resist
Confusion calls me
When I get like this you wouldn't know me
Nobody moves
Won't hurt nobody

Now I'm outta control
I know
There's gon' be casualties
And when I get goin'
Let them know
You're the only who can stop me, stop me (Help, help)
You're the only who can stop me (Help, help)
You're the only who can stop me, stop me (Help, help)
When I fall I need you around me (Help, help)
You're the only who can stop me (Help, help)
Stop me (Help, help)
Stop me (Help, help)
Stop me (Help, help)
Stop me (Help, help)

Stand up I end up falling
I hear confusion calling
Can't stop once I get started
You are the only one

Now I'm outta control
I know
There's gon' be casualties
And when I get goin'
Let them know
You're the only who can stop me (Help, help)
You're the only who can stop me, stop me (Help, help)
You're the only who can stop me, stop me (Help, help)
When I fall I need you around me (Help, help)
You're the only who can stop me (Help, help)
