Wire & Glass Lyrics

[Jim Meninno]

???


  Well, no one stepped up with a transcription of the lyrics, so I thought I'd give it a shot.  There are a few places I couldn't be sure and some where I really had no idea.  Any corrections or suggestions welcome. I think Mirror Door was already posted here, so I didn't go through that part.

  SOUND ROUND

  A girl in the camper van
  The world feels all anew
  I fear the Future Man
  As I take in the view

  Don't know where to head to now
  I [can?, did?] not go back
  My friends are all dead now
  or [stifle in]??? the sack

  Sound round feel the ground
  Feel the pulse that we have found
  Breathe in, feel the spin
  Where's the dream that we were in

  Sound round feel the ground
  Feel the pulse that we have found

  Sound round feel the ground
  Feel the pulse that we have found
  Breathe in, feel the spin
  Where's the dream that we were in

  Sound round feel the ground
  Feel the pulse that we have found

  I'm young in the camper van
  The world feels all anew
  I fear the Future Man
  As I take in the view

  PICK UP THE PEACE

  Now I'm in the Ether
  Look down in time
  I see three children
  Prepare to walk the line

  I see them older
  When life is done
  I was a loser
  Let the game be won

  Come on let's try to pick up the peace 
  You and I on our hands and knees
  Come on let's try to pick up, pick up the peace

  Come on let's try to touch the fleece
  You and I on our hands and knees
  Come on let's try to pick up, pick up the peace

  How do people forget
  ??? the wars? we've seen
  Or about me longing for you 
  You longing for me
  You longing for me

  ENDLESS WIRE

  We found this pile of paper
  Written by the Ether Man
  He hatched a mad old caper
  He had a mad old plan

  He'd turn us into music
  He'd show us to our portals
  He gathered wire and angels 
  To entertain immortals

  Out on the endless, endless
  Out on the endless wire
  Out on the endless, endless
  Out on the endless, endless, 
  Endless, endless wire

  Out on the endless, endless
  Out on the endless, wire
  Out on the endless, endless
  Out on the endless, wire

  WE GOT A HIT

  We gathered folks together
  We broke down barriers
  We found a dream to dream
  We were the carriers

  We got rich and famous
  Papers at our door
  We talked a load of crap
  Whooo, they just wanted more

  We got a hit
           Good news, we got a hit
  We got a hit
           Good news, we got a hit 
  We got a hit
           Good news, we got a hit 
  We got a hit
           Good news...

  We got a hit
  We got a hit
  We got a hit
  Oooooh, we got a hit

  We gathered folks together
  We broke down barriers
  We found a dream to dream
  We were the carriers
  We were the carriers

  We got a hit
           Good news, we got a hit
  We got a hit
           Good news

  THEY MADE MY DREAMS COME TRUE

  People died where I performed
  People cried when last we formed
  Shots rang out
  As the singer yawned
  The band played on until the dawn

  Lies and drunks and drugs and fools
  Tricks and stunts disguise the tools
  Is the victim dead
  Is there blood in pools
  ??? part of showbiz rules

  They made my dream come true
  They made my dream come true
  They made my dream come true
