We're not lovers you and I
I can't think of reasons why I should want you like that I'm stranded by my passion The whole idea fits us like a suit gone out of fashion As I said goodbye and drove away things I'd like to hear you say Rolled across my mind like clouds in an unexpected flurry I stumbled on a minefield where desire was still buried I don't want to fall in love - with the idea of I don't want to fall in love - with love Sentimental circumstance disguised as fate with wild romance Fools me into thinking you're the water for my thirst Not knowing what you're feeling for me only makes it worse I don't want to fall in love - with the idea of I don't want to fall in love - with love |

I don't know how to say goodbye to you,
I'm not good at things that I don't want to do, Should I pretend that I don't care, You don't feel what I feel is there, I don't know how to say goodbye. I don't know how to say goodbye to you, I'm not good at things that I don't want to do, Should I pretend that I don't care, That you don't feel what I feel is there, I don't know how to say goodbye. A kiss, I insist that we play this game of lovers And a touch, If I look away too much, Would my feelings be discovered. I don't know how to say goodbye to you, I'm not good at things that I don't want to do, Should I pretend that I don't care, You don't feel what I feel is there, I don't know how to say goodbye. Would you be scared, If I just stared, And left you look inside me, Should I smile and just walk away, So my eyes can get jaded. I don't know how to say goodbye to you I'm not good at things that I don't want to do Should I pretend that I don't care Like you don't feel what I feel is there I don't know how to say goodbye Ohhhh I don't know how to say goodbye Ohhhh I don't know how to say goodbye To you Ohhh to you To you |

Flame why do I come so close to you
Vain telling me what I shouldn't do I saw you smoldering before I let him burn me to the floor - flame Flame why do you paralyze my soul Pain if I hold you or let go There's nothing bluer than your heat You make the night bleed at your feet - flame Break my fall into this wild fire of love Stolen from dreams Flame why do I dance so close to you Stained with the longing of a fool When fires rise the shadows fall Over the edges where we crawl - flame |

Pulling the trigger
A shot would fire then he'd wake To red lips above him smeared With scorn and stale restraint She covered him with pity Like a snake about to strike And then pronounced him hopeless When he wouldn't do as she would like He's so sorry he can't feel remorse He tries to keep the helpless ship on course The blameless sky pales as a storm comes Taking it by force He's so sorry Flashes of justice After all she'd done for him For the first time she was quiet As he touched her moon pale skin They found him hours later He was talking to the gun Saying father please forgive her She has killed her only son |

What do I do when I want to
Be as close as I can get to you I feel like a cruel girl saying both yes and no I want you to want me I need to trust you though What do I do when I fall through Fears so long and dark that I lose you I feel like a lost girl Letting my torn heart show If you're so far away boy How will you ever know I feel like a small girl Falling beneath your form If I set you on fire - will you keep me warm? |

I saw black and you saw red
Crawled to separate corners the line went dead I closed my heart up tore your love for me to shreds Tangled wires / love can't breathe pulling tighter to my ruthless need Don't look down I want you unconsolably I can't stop crying Stubborn distance closes in with your assistance bitterly begin To build a wall of silence cutting soul in two Cloudy water in my eyes I'm ashamed of words with secret knives In dream I scream but you can't Hear me calling you I know that this heartache is A speck in the sky of love But it's all I feel around me |

If I close my eyes
I'm afraid I won't wake up If I stop and listen I'm afraid I'll hear too much Trying to hold on to the earth Holding on for what it's worth I've got a long black cadillac marble hot tub in the back Champagne waterfall solid gold question mark twenty feet tall Try to paint a world of shapes Over the holes as we're falling The tightened grip is our mistake As we're trying to hold on to the earth Looking for his name wet on brave lips carved on road Look for flame and mercy Hope that tired hands can hold |

She can't tell time it's not listening to her
When faith went blind I could see light through her Her vigils in the street left my youth incomplete Left meaning obsolete Sleep I can't sleep / she can speak But she can't tell time Dream I can't dream / she can scream But she can't tell time She can't tell time she didn't get what she deserved When faith went blind she found the truth but lost her nerve When she won't act her age the cat circles round the cage Youth shrinks to tired rage |

I can't hide the truth from you
in a closet of some kindness Time will sharpen its blade and it will cut you when you find it I wish that I could lie to you baby I've got what you don't want to hear how do I tell you I tried to hold my soul back but its tide is so much stronger Than the drifting feelings we want to hold a little longer I wish that I could lie to you baby For far too long your lies protected you Now I have to hurt you with the truth We will find love someday But the longer we hold on now The longer it will be until we find it |

Tonight I'll leave you there where I found you
Starting up the hill / an echo standing still Love has turned on us like the wild Listen to the scream / of our desperate dream Did we say forever and what ever did we mean Now my friend we're out of time Someone take me out of time I dreamed of eyes like his open windows Secrets looking through / dark sky burning blue But I kept them to myself / quiet pieces To the urgent voice / violent with choice Tonight I'll leave you there where I found you Starting up the hill / an echo standing still Our shadows cry for us as the dust moves Time won't tell us why we let love go by |
