"Silver And Gold"
In the shithouse a shotgun
Praying hands hold me down
Only the hunter was hunted
In this tin can town
Tin can town
No stars in the black night
Looks like the sky fall down
No sun in the daylight
Looks like it's chained to the ground
Chained to the ground
The warden says the exit is sold
If you want a way out
Silver and gold
Silver and gold
Broken back to the ceiling
Broken nose to the floor
I scream at the silence, it's crawling
It crawls under the door
There's a rope around my neck
And there's, there's a trigger in your gun
Jesus say something
I am someone, I am someone
Captains and kings in the ships hold
They came to collect
Silver and gold
Silver and gold
See the coming and the going
See the captains and the kings
See them navy blue uniforms
See them bright and shiny things
Bright, shiny things, yeah
The temperature is rising
The fever white hot
Mister, I ain't got nothing
But it's more than you got
Chains no longer bind me
Not the shackles at my feet
Outside are the prisoners
Inside the free
Set them free
Set them free
A prize fighter in a corner is told
Hit where it hurts
Silver and gold
Silver and gold
"I was listening to a John Lee Hooker track and I asked, 'Who's playing the drums?' 'That's his foot,' Keith [Richards] said. 'He was just kicking at the floorboards.' I was blown out of it. I left with my head in a spin and I went back to my hotel room on my own and wrote 'Silver And Gold' and tried to apply what I'd just heard to the project at hand, which was an anti-apartheid record. I called Keith the next day and said, 'Can I come round, I've got a song I'd like to play for you? Maybe you'd like to play on it?' Keith said, 'Sure.' So I recorded an acoustic version of this, my first blues song, with Keith Richards and Ronnie Wood." - Bono, U2 By U2 2006

"Silver Lining"
Cold outside, can anybody call
I see so many sides
I know each is through you gone
Take me, silver lining
Take me on my own
Save me, silver lining
Take me on my own
I play it in the hall, I can see you grow
You were always wishing and aching
So ever, always firezone
Take me, silver lining
Save me on my own
Soul the silver lining
Seeks your only zone
My song, sad song
Sad song, sad song
Sad song, sad song
Sad song, sad song
You hold back but I can see you crawling
We always horse-shoed the nail
I can't hold this on
Take me, silver lining
Take me on my own
Take me, silver lining
And the garden grows
Sad song, sad song
Sad song, sad song
Sad song, sad song
Sad song, sad song
Call out my name
Call out today
Call out all same
(This is an early song from U2 that was never released on an album or single but was played live)

"Slow Dancing"
My love is cruel as the night
She steals the sun and shuts out the light
All of my colors, they turn to blue
Win or lose
She does it slow dancing
Slow dancing
She does it slow dancing
All night long
Scarlet eyes and a see-through heart
She saw me coming right from the start
She p*********d me up but had me down on my knees
Just a-begging her
Begging her please
Take me slow dancing
Slow dancing
She took me slow dancing
All night long
And I don't know why a man
Search for himself in his lover's eyes
No, I don't know why a man
Sees the truth but needs the lies
My love is restless as the wind
She moves like a shadow across my skin
She left with my conscience
I don't want it back
It just gets in the way
If you wanna go slow dancing
Slow dancing
She took me slow dancing
All night long
Slow dancing
Slow dancing
Slow

"Slug"
Don't want to lose my shirt
Don't want to dig the dirt
Don't want you to get hurt
Can't help that I'm a flirt
Don't want to take your drugs
Don't want to be a slug
Don't want to overdress
Don't want to make a mess
Don't want you to confess
Not under duress
Don't want to be untrue
I want to be with you
Don't want to lose my nerve
Don't want to throw the curve
Don't want to make you swerve
Don't want what I deserve
Don't want to change the frame
Don't want to be a pain
Don't want to stay the same

"Smile"
Gravity, it's not pulling me
I won't be a picture with no sound
Decaying, I'm praying
You are my air
But I need the ground to kneel upon
And love can't be us all
I don't want to see you smile
I'm breaking it, taking it
I'm breaking slowly in my mind
I'm seeing it, free in it
I know love is in this soul of mine
It's not in your eyes
I don't want
I don't want to see you smile
It started light-hearted
I won't be easier like you said
I'm going, flowing
I'm leaving on the day
Of the day I will live again
You will live again
I don't want to see you smile
God knows, He knows me
Knows me, lonely
You see, hear me, love
Say it again
You're not blind
The smoke machine
Is yours, not mine
I don't want to see you smile
I will live again
You will live again
I just don't want to see you smile

"So Cruel"
We crossed the line
Who pushed who over
It doesn't matter to you
It matters to me
We're cut adrift
We're still floating
I'm only hanging on
To watch you go down
My love
I disappeared in you
You disappeared from me
I gave you everything you ever wanted
It wasn't what you wanted
The men who love you, you hate the most
They pass through you like a ghost
They look for you but your spirit is in the air
Baby, you're nowhere
Oh love you say in love there are no rules
Oh love sweetheart
You're so cruel
Desparation is a tender trap
It gets you every time
You put your lips to her lips
To stop the lie
Her skin is pale like God's only dove
Screams like an angel for your love
Then she makes you watch her from above
And you need her like a drug
Oh love you say in love there are no rules
Oh love sweetheart
You're so cruel
She wears my love like a see-through dress
Her lips say one thing
Her movements something else
Oh love like a screaming flower
Love dying every hour love
You don't know if it's fear or desire
Danger the drug that takes you higher
Head in heaven, fingers in the mire
Her heart is racing, you can't keep up
The night is bleeding like a cut
Between the horses of love and lust
We are trampled underfoot
Oh love you say in love there are no rules
Oh love sweetheart
You're so cruel
Oh love to stay with you I'd be a fool
Sweetheart you're so cruel
"'So Cruel' is mostly my song. I p*********d up a guitar late one night in Dogtown and started singing. People thought it was too traditional, one more attempt at writing a song for Roy Orbison but Flood found a way of making it feel like it was on the same album." - Bono, U2 By U2 2006

"Some Days Are Better Than Others"
Some days are dry
Some days are leaky
Some days come clean
Other days are sneaky
Some days take less but most days take more
Some slip through your fingers and onto the floor
Some days your quick but most days you're speedy
Some days you use more force than is necessary
Some days just drop in on us
Some days are better than others
Some days it all adds up and what you've got is enough
Some days are better than others
Some days are slippy
Other days sloppy
Some days you can't stand the sight of a puppy
Your skin is white but you think you're a brother
Some days are better than others
Some days you wake up with her complaining
Some sunny days you wish it was raining
Some days are sulky
Some days have a grin
Some days have bouncers and won't let you in
Some days you hear a voice taking you to another place
Some days are better than others
Some days are honest
Some days are not
Some days you're thankful for what you've got
Some days you wake up in the army
And some days it's the enemy
Some days you work
Most days you're lazy
Some days you feel like a bit of a baby
Looking for Jesus and His mother
Some days are better than others
Some days you feel ahead
You're making sense of what she said
Some days are better than others
Some days you hear a voice taking you to another place
Some days are better than others

"Sometimes You Can't Make It On Your Own"
Tough, you think you've got the stuff
You're telling me and anyone
You're hard enough
You don't have to put up a fight
You don't have to always be right
Let me take some of the punches
For you tonight
Listen to me now
I need to let you know
You don't have to go it alone
And it's you when I look in the mirror
And it's you when I don't p********* up the phone
Sometimes you can't make it on your own
We fight all the time
You and I, that's alright
We're the same soul
I don't need, I don't need to hear you say
That if we weren't so alike
You'd like me a whole lot more
Listen to me now
I need to let you know
You don't have to go it alone
And it's you when I look in the mirror
And it's you when I don't p********* up the phone
Sometimes you can't make it on your own
I know that we don't talk
I'm sick of it all
Can you hear me when I sing
You're the reason I sing
You're the reason why the opera is in me
Well, hey now
Still got to let you know
A house doesn't make a home
Don't leave me here alone
And it's you when I look in the mirror
And it's you that makes it hard to let go
Sometimes you can't make it on your own
Sometimes you can't make it
Best you can do is to fake it
Sometimes you can't make it on your own
"My father worked in the post office by day and sang opera by night. We lived on the north side of Dublin in a place called Cedarwood Road. He had a lot of attitude. He gave some to me - and a voice. I wish I'd known him better." - Bono, music video 2004

"Soon"
Soon, soon
Soon, soon
Soon, soon
Sing yourself on down the street
Sing yourself right off your feet
Sing yourself away from victory
And from defeat
Sing yourself with fife and drum
Sing yourself to overcome
The thought that someone has lost
And someone else has won
Soon
Soon, soon
Soon, soon
Soon, soon

"Spanish Eyes"
Hey, hey, baby hang on
Baby hang on
Hang to your heart
Beat tight like a drum set
Hang on to your love
See it shine like a song
Hey, hey, baby hang on
Our love it shines like rain
In those spanish eyes, spanish eyes
Hey, hey, here she comes
Comes in colours
You know she gonna turn the daylight on
Cause I love the way you talk to me
And I love the way you walk on me
And I need you
More than you need me
Our love, shines like rain
In those spanish eyes, spanish eyes
Across the world
For green and gold
It's those spanish eyes
That get me home
Home again
Hey, hey, baby hang on
Hey, hey, you know that
The night is young
Dazzled by lights that
Shine in your eyes
I'm standing in the shadows
And wait for the night
Forever in fever
Forever in heat
You p********* me up to put me out on the street
Hey, hey, baby hang on, hang on
Hey, hey, baby hang on, hang on
Cause I love the way you talk to me
And I love the way you need me
And I need you

"Speed Of Life" (Vocal unreleased version)
Gonna push it, wish they got it right
What they call you when you're in life
Ran for an ocean, they running's done
Running for a lady at the speed of life
Of life
My question, at least you got it right
They got you when you're in sight
Running from the ocean on stepping stones
Running from a lady at the speed of life
Of life
On your way inside a mirror turning in here, in his hand
Love's still well if father keeps me home, it really is
I am higher, way up, fall
(The final version of Speed of Life is an instrumental, rather than this earlier version that has lyrics)

"Stand Up Comedy"
Love love love love love
Love love love love love
I got to stand up and take a step
You and I have been asleep for hours
I got to stand up
The wire is stretched
In between our two towers
Stand up in this dizzy world
Where a lovesick eye can steal the view
I'm gonna fall down if I can't stand up
For your love
Love love love love love
Stand up, this is comedy
The DNA lotto may have left you smart
But can you stand up to beauty
Dictator of the heart
I can stand up for hope, faith, love
But while I'm getting over certainty
Stop helping God across the road
Like a little old lady
Oh, oh
Out from under your beds
C'mon, ye people
Stand up for your love
Love love love love love
Love love love love love
I gotta stand up to ego
But my ego's not really the enemy
It's like a small child
Crossing an eight lane highway
On a voyage of discovery
Stand up to rock stars
Napoleon is in high heels
Josephine, be careful
Of small men with big ideas
Oh, oh
Out from under your beds
C'mon, ye people
Stand up for your love
Love love love love love
Love love love love love
God is love
And love is evolution's very best day
Soul rockin' people moving on
Soul rockin' people on and on
C'mon, ye people
We're made of stars
C'mon, ye people
Stand up then sit down for your love
Love love love love love
Love love love love love
Love love love love love
Love love love love love

"Staring At The Sun" (live from Slane)
Summer stretching on the grass
Summer dresses pass
In the shade of a willow tree
Creeps a crawling over me
Over me and over you
Stuck together with God's glue
It's gonna get stickier too
Been a long, hot summer
Let's get under cover
Don't try to think it out
Don't think at all
I'm not the only one starin' at the sun
Afraid of what you'd find
If you took a look inside
I'm not just deaf and dumb
I'm staring at the sun
I'm not the only one who'd rather go blind
There's an insect in your ear
If you scratch it won't disappear
It's gonna itch and burn and sting
You wanna see where the scratching brings
Waves that leave me out of reach
Breaking on your back like a beach
Will we ever live in peace
'Cause those that can't do often have to
Those that can't do often have to preach
To the ones staring at the sun
Afraid of what you'd find
If you took a look inside
I'm not just deaf and dumb
I'm staring at the sun
I'm not the only one who'd rather go blind
Intransigence is all around
Military still in town
Armour plated suits and ties
Daddy just won't say goodbye
Referee won't blow the whistle
God is good but will he listen
I'm nearly great but there's something missing
I left it in the duty free
But you never really belonged to me
And I'm not the only one starin' at the sun
Afraid of what you'd find
If you took a look inside
I'm not just deaf and dumb
I'm staring at the sun
Not the only one who'd rather go blind
"'Staring At The Sun' was another great tune that never became a great record, for whatever reason. I don't know why we didn't quite nail it. In the end, when we were playing it live, we just sang it with acoustic guitars and the song came through much better." - The Edge, U2 By U2 2006

"Stateless"
I've got no home in this world
Just gravity, luck, and time
I've got no home in this world
Just you and you are not mine
Stateless
Weightless
Stateless
Such a girl
There are no colors in your eye
There's no sunshine in your sky
There's no race, only the prize
There is no tomorrow, only tonight
Stateless
It's the difference
You can cover a world with your thumb
Still so big, so bright, so beautiful
Weightless
Stateless
Push down on me
Push down on me
A weight now
A weight down on me
Your weight down
Be the weight, hard
Down on me
Be the heavy hand
The wall of sand
Be the weight, hard
Down on me
Stateless
Weightless
Hateless

"Stay (Faraway, So Close!)"
Green light, 7-Eleven
You stop in for a pack of cigarettes
You don't smoke, don't even want to
Hey now, check your change
Dressed up like a car crash
The wheels are turning but you're upside down
You say when he hits you you don't mind
Because when he hurts you you feel alive
Oh now, is that what it is
Red light, grey morning
You stumble out of a hole in the ground
A vampire or a victim
It depends on who's around
You used to stay up to watch the adverts
You could lip-synch to the talk shows
And if you look, you look through me
And when you talk it's not to me
And when I touch you, you don't feel a thing
If I could stay, then the night would give you up
Stay, and the day would keep its trust
Stay, and the night would be enough
Faraway, so close up with the static and the radio
With satellite television you can go anywhere
Miami, New Orleans, London, Belfast and Berlin
And if you listen I can't call
And if you jump, you just might fall
And if you shout, I'll only hear you
If I could stay then the night would give you up
Stay then the day would keep its trust
Stay with the demons you drowned
Stay with the spirit I found
Stay and the night would be enough
Three o'clock in the morning
It's quiet and there's no one around
Just the bang and the clatter as an angel runs to ground
Just the bang and the clatter as an angel hits the ground
"'Stay (Faraway, So Close!)' was a song Bono and Edge had been working on for some time. Bono used to say it was for Frank Sinatra but we needed songs for Zooropa so we thought we would have a go. It was hard to figure out how we would do it. I mean, no one is going to mistake us for Frank Sinatra's backing band. A very humble little combo sound is what we ended up with and that really worked." - Adam, U2 By U2 2006
