You and I don't talk now
It didn't start out that way I'm bored with the game now I think it's too late I've had time alone To think things through somehow I can't hold back to forget the pain I'm feeling now Oh, Russia what went wrong? Why won't you tell me? Aren't you that strong? Cut out my heart with your switchblade eyes There's no alibis I'm bored with Russia (bored with Russia) Hanging out in Stalin square I'm bored with Russia (bored with Russia) You won't talk so I don't care What are you hiding? I've asked myself a thousand times You said it's too good Why won't you make up your mind? Oh, Russia I've got to say I'm tired of feeling this way Oh, Russia before it's too late Set the record straight I'm bored with Russia (bored with Russia) Hanging out in Stalin square I'm bored with Russia (bored with Russia) You won't talk so I don't care Oh, Russia what went wrong? Why won't you tell me? Aren't you that strong? Cut out my heart with your switchblade eyes There's no alibis I'm bored with Russia (bored with Russia) Hanging out in Stalin square I'm bored with Russia (bored with Russia) You won't talk so I don't care I'm bored with Russia (bored with Russia) Hanging out in Stalin square I'm bored with Russia (bored with Russia) You won't talk so I don't care I'm bored with Russia (bored with Russia) Hanging out in Stalin square I'm bored with Russia (bored with Russia) You won't talk so I don't care |

Never believe in the bellicose talker
Pretending his cause to be just and strong The onrushing torrent of words to convert Entice me to follow along Truth drug! Sell it to the bad boys Making all of their noise, ringing in my ears Truth drug! Give it to the bad guys Don't you know that their lies, Are not allowed in here The energy relays rhetorical speeches The sugar sweet voice tells me this is the best The durable quality lasts for a second I fell for the scam like the rest You think it's funny, to make your money By telling your lies. Crawl back under your stone! I got it wrong when you wrote me a letter That said you would love me forever and ever Sometimes you have to be cruel to be kind Keeping respect for each other |

The two young children were old and bent
The older tried to look confident Laying life ebbed away, nearly spent, no love The darkness came and stopped the precious light If they survive this eternal night Without the sun and their maternal love They might fade away Flowers in the attic will not grow Flowers in the attic no one knows Flowers in the attic given some light Maybe you will survive The children cried like a baying hound Cold, still and darkness was their surround Although they wept, you could hear no sound They fade. They needed light to rejuvenate To run away through an open gate To halt the rise of a growing pain, away By now the old world was laid to rest So they invented self-happiness With all the toys and the books And the games they played One lonely child in the night touched you Depending on his mothers will No food or love were the last but 'til the dawn |

Give me the truth, give me the truth
Righteous you are to follow the star Give me the truth, give me the truth you do Why don't we see oh the simplicity? You might think that I'm falling down on my luck But you were wrong 'cause you know That what you get is the undiluted real, you feel Give it a chance, love is like Lennon said Love is the bread we'll be happy to spread Give me the truth, it's tuned to its proper sound And this part I play is the music for me You might think that I'm falling Into the trap that tension has laid, but I say What can I do when I know I feel this way, this way Give me the truth, everyone criticize Don't take offence, but pride is a brand of lies Give me the truth, give me the truth Righteous you are so follow your star |

Alison, Alison
Locked inside your head Keep the words I said And you'll always remember Alison, Alison They come to you and cry Help to dry their eyes Soothing their sorrow Waking in the morning She is moody as she opens the day Slowly through the hour She will open like a flower And smile in her way Alison, Alison Waking in the morning She is moody as she opens the day Slowly through the hour She will open like a flower And smile in her way Alison, Alison Alison I will remember I will remember Alison |

I touched a nerve and made you jump
I sounded so unkind A wild effect might come and hide Upon your troubled mind I could have used a little tact Instead of speaking out Your temperament was much too quick and hot Finger on the button, You're ready to shoot me down Waiting to set the world on fire Finger on the button, You're waiting to shoot me down Some things I say Are not meant to be taken that way You took my words so literally It made you look the fool But obstinence should not incite Such sweet revenge so cruel But having taken orders I will apologize But don't you think it's time we really tried? Hold it back Hold it back Remember I'm a friend |

Keep the fire of life alight,
Give it all you can Open up your hand, reach out Your positive reactions fight Your run of empty luck Empty 'cause they've snuffed love out Hold on to, hold on to love Why don't you hold on to love? Hold on to, hold on to love Everyone hold on to love There's a school of higher thought That hears the frequency A universal key, sing out Although it's run is separate Like islands in the stream Tune in to the beat listen out When you're disillusioned with The path your life has run There is only one remedy What's the use in having If you don't appreciate Love can turn to hate so easily |
