Understand the things I say
Don't turn away from me
'Cause I've spent half my life out there
You wouldn't disagree
Do you see me? Do you see?
Do you like me? Do you like me standing there?
Do you notice? Do you know?
Do you see me? Do you see me?
Does anyone care?
*
Unhappiness where's when I was young
And we didn't give a damn
'Cause we were raised
To see life as fun and take it if we can
My mother, my mother she hold me
Did she hold me ,when I was out there
My father, my father, he liked me
Oh he liked me,does anyone care?
Understand what I've become
It wasn't my design
And people everywhere think
Something better than I am
But I miss you, I miss
'Cause I liked it. I liked it
When I was out there
Do you know this ? D'you know
You did not find me, you did not find
Does anyone care?
Repeat *
does anyone care?
I Can't Be With You
Lying in my bed again
And i cry cos' you're not here
Crying in my head again
And I know that it's not clear
Put your hands, Put your hands
Inside my face and see that's it's just you
But it's bad and it's mad
And it's making me sad
Because I can't be with you
Baby I Can't Be With You
Thinking back on how things were
And how we loved so well
I wanted to be the mother
Of your child
and now it's just farewell
Put your hands in my hands
And come with me,
We'll find another end
And my head , and my head
On anyone's shoulder
Cause I can't be with you
Baby I can't be with you
Cause you're not here, you're not here
Baby I can't be with you
Cause you're not here, you're not here
And baby I'm still in love with you
Twenty One
Twenty One was written on the September 6th 1992
I don't think it's going
To happen anymore
You took my thoughts from me
Now i want nothing more
And did you think you
Could just take it all away
I dont think it s happening
This is what I say
Leave me alone
Cause i found it all
Twenty one
So I don't think it's going
To happen anymore
I don't think it's going
To happen anymore
Twenty One
Today

Zombie
Zombie was written
on the Cranberries
English Tour
1993.
Man 's inhumanity
to man
and worse still,
to child
Another head hangs lowly
Child is slowly taken
And the violence caused such silence
Who are we mistaken
But You see it's not me,
It s not my family
In your head,in your
Head they are fighting
With their tanks, and their bombs
And their bombs, and their guns
In your head,
In your head they are cryin'
In your head
Zombie
What's in your head, in your head
Zombie
Another mother's breakin'
Heart is taking over
When the violence causes silence
We must be mistaken
It's the same old theme since 1916
In your head,
In your head they're still fightin'
With their tanks
In your head they are dying
In your head, in your head
Zombie
What's in your head, in your head
Zombie
Empty
Something has left my life
And I don't know where it went to
Somebody caused me stripe
And it's not what I was seeking
Didn't you see me, didn't you hear me
Didn't you see me standing there
Why did you turn out the lights
Did you know that I was sleeping
Say a prayer for me
Help to feel the strength I did
My identity has it been taken
Is my heart breaking on me
All my plans fell through my hands
They fell
Through my hands on me
All my dreams it suddenly seems
Empty
Everything I Said
It makes me lonely
It makes me very lonely
When I see you there, waitin'on
It makes me tired, It makes me very tired
And inside of me, lingers on
But you have your heart
Don t believe it, and you will find it
Waitin'on
Everything I said, oh, well I meant it
And inside my head, holdin'on
'Cos if I died tonight
Would you hold my hand, no
Would you understand
And if I lived in spite
Would you still be there, no
Would you disappear
Surely must be you
But I don t make you lonely
I'll get over you
But I don 't make you lonely
The Icicle Melts
When
When will the icicle melt,
And when
When will the picture show end
I should not have read the papers today
'Cause a child,child he was taken away
There's a place for the baby that died
And there's a time for the mother who cried
And she will hold him in her arms sometimes
'Cause nine months is too long
How could you hurt a child
Now does this make you satisfied
I don't know what's
happening to people today
When a child, he was taken away
There's a place for the baby that died
There's a time for the mother that cried
And she will hold him in
her arms sometimes
'Cause nine months is too long
There's a place for the baby that died
And there's a time for the mother that cried
And you will hold him in
your arms sometimes
'Cause nine months is too long
Disappointment
Written on making a clear decision, no more struggle inside...
Disappointment you shouldn't have done
You couldn't have done
You wouldn't have done
the things you did there
And we could 've been happy
What a piteous thing, a hideous thing
was tainted by the rest
But it won't get any harder
And I hope you'll find your way again
But it won't get any higher
But it all boils down to what you did there
In the night we fight, I feel you're right
It was exactly there
I decided
and drew you out
In the night we fight, I feel you're right
It was exactly there
I decided
But it won't get any harder
And I hope you'll find your way again
But it won't get any higher
But it all boils down to what you did there
Dissapointment
Ridiculous Thoughts
Twister does anyone see through you
You re a twister an animal
But you're happy now
I didn't go along with you
So happy now
But you re going to have to hold on
Hold on
Or we're going to have to move on
Move on
I feel alright
And I cried so hard
The ridiculous thoughts
I feel alright
Twister. I shouldn't have trusted you
Twister
It's not going to happen no
You re not going to make fun of me
Happen no
But you re going to have to hold on
You re going to have to hold on
Hold on
Or we're going to have to move on
Move on
I feel alright
And I cried so hard
The ridiculous thoughts
I feel alright
I should have lied
And I cried so hard
The ridiculous thoughts
I should ha' lied
But you re gonna have to hold on
Hold on
but you're gonna have to hold on to me

Where i found
happiness
Dedicated to
my husband, lover, best friend, support.
What more can
be said ?
All the things you said to me today
Changed my perspective in every way
These things count to mean
so much to me
Into my faith you
And your baby
It s out there
If you want me
I'll be there
It's out there
I'll be dreaming my dreams
With you
And there's no other places
That I'd lay down my face
I'll be dreaming my dreams with you
It's out there
If you want me,I'll be here
I'll be dreaming my dreams with you
And there's no other places that I'd
lay down my face
I'll be dreaming my dreams with you
Yeat's Grave
Silenced by death in the grave
W B Yeats couldn't save
Why did you stand there
'Where you sickened in time
But I know by now
Why did you sit here?
In the GRAVE
W.B. Yeats "Second"
Why should I blame her
That she filled my days
With misery or that she would of late
Have taught to ignorant men violent ways
Or hurled the little street upon the great
Had they but courage
Equals to desire
Sad that Maud Gonne Couldn't stay
But she had Mac Bride anyway
And you sit here with me
On the isle Inisfree
And you writing down everything
But i know by now
Why did you sit here
In the grave...
Why should I blame her
Had they but courage equals to desire
