Tears For Fears - Everybody Loves A Happy Ending (2004) by Tears For Fears (보컬) on maniadb.com

Tow the line
Tow the line
Wake up your time is nearly over
No more the supernova
No action guaranteed
Wake up you've had an operation
Ideals above your station
Too much reality
Think about the wasted time spending
Watching Mother Nature's knees bending
Everybody loves a happy ending
Wake up you're on your own agenda
Give up the great pretender
With baby eyes of green
Wake up you're holding on to nothing
You know you're only bluffing
As dead as autumn leaves
Think about the wasted time spending
Watching Mother Nature's knees bending
Everybody loves a happy ending
Don't you just love a happy ending?
Oh yeah well so do I
And all your love will shine on everyone
The darkness of the day
A curse in every way
You try to see the light
But you don't know why
Don't know why
They tell you on the phone
To give your God a bone
And grow a set of wings like a butterfly
The guardian at the gate
Reminds you that you're late
You try to take your time
But you tow the line
Tow the line
To children of the world
And daddy's little girl
The grass is always green on the other side
So stay and breathe new life
Wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up
Wake up, wake up
Everything is moving faster than you think
(Wake up, wake up)
Your pen is running out of ink
(Wake up, wake up)
Fill up your bath and kitchen sink
(Wake up, wake up)
They're really kicking up a stink
(Wake up, wake up)
You never found the missing link
(Wake up, wake up)
You should be happy in the pink
(Wake up, wake up)
You're in demand but out of sync
(Wake up, wake up)
A nod is as good as a wink
(Wake up, wake up)
Once more my dear friends to the brink
All your love will shine on everyone

28 days of rain
Flashfloods in Feburary
Back in our boats again
Bathwater and the baby
What am I gonna do?
There's been a lot of drinking
Looking at ghosts of you
While all the world is sinking
Ten thousand miles into the atmosphere
My body shakes, is there a welcome here?

Closest thing to heaven
How do you do it?
Closest thing to heaven, to heaven

Throw your arms 'round the world
Make love your destination
Here we go, boys and girls
Act like a generation
Give me that ball and chain
By now it must be hurting
Dragging your feet again
Just like a beast of burden
When one and one and one make two
I know I'm high because I've captured you
Yeah

Closest thing to heaven
Yes, you
Closest thing to heaven, to heaven

Look the world right in the eye
Eat the countries that are making millions
Sweet as homemade apple pie
Save the crumbs for all the starving millions

Closest thing to heaven
Closest thing to heaven
How do you do it?
Closest thing to heaven
Hey
Closest thing to heaven

Fill the sky with love
Fill the sky with love

I wouldn't mind but she just turned up on the doorstep
Wistfull and ashen, slightly bedraggled
Last time I saw her she was howling at the moon
Roaming the forest, lupine and rabid

Woah, is she wild? Does she see my inner child?

But then she knows it's like a curse
To find our chosen roles reversed
To unify my universe
To call me mellow

If I was only half my age and she was older
We'd live on ice cream on Coney Island
And though it's gravity that drags down my balloon
She stays in orbit way after midnight

Woah, slip and slide - does she go all dewey-eyed?

But then she knows it's like a curse
To find our chosen roles reversed
To unify my universe
To call me mellow

She'll dress down for us
She'll break new ground for us
Watching me cracking up
She'll hang round fellahs
With all the ground swellers
Driving me like a truck

But then she knows it's like a curse
To find our chosen roles reversed
To unify my universe
To call me mellow

Bathe in another man's grave
In time we'll follow
Save all your thoughts for these days
Don't steal just borrow

Well a high wire
Is a dangerous game
But a hard act to follow
If I fly high like a moth to a flame
Would you eyes be the size of sorrow?

Pain, I can understand pain
Sometimes you just swallow
Say we can make it OK
Don't steal just borrow

With the high wire
Is a dangerous game
But a hard act to follow
If I fly high like a moth to a flame
Would your eyes be the size of sorrow?

What you gonna choose the poison or the knife?
Lived with crazy paving all your life
Something in her eyes just tells you no
Hoping conversation starts to flow

Stuck inside a wheel inside a wheel
Wondering everyday is it all for real?
Aching every time a cold wind blows
My love don't fear the mighty rose

Tangerine, Tangerine

What you gonna do when the old man bleeds you dry
Step down from the plane and pluck the eye
Slide in deeper closer to the bone
Don't you just wish your heart was made of stone

Waxing like an old cracked forty-five
Counting out the ways you can stay alive
Placed in body bags and filled with stones
My love won't bleed her waves are foam

And when you think it's all over
It's not over, it's not over

Who killed Tangerine? Prettiest girl I've ever seen

And when you think it's all over
It's not over, it's not over

It's always the quiet ones
Who are stranger than fiction
They hide under tables like a child

What kind of chemistry is it?
Leaden or golden?
Nobody sees them driving us wild

It's your life
Don't just collide with the waves

Oh look into her eyes
You'll see such silent calling
Nothing seems to matter in this life

Wake up your majesty there are
Thieves in the temple
Picking the sunspots out of the sun

Looking for symmetry in man
Another dead Beatle
Down through the path we see how they run

It's your life
Don't just collide with the ways

Oh look into her eyes
You'll see such silent calling
Nothing seems to matter in this life

Oh so many reasons why
You hear the silence calling
Nothing seems to matter in this life

Oh salvation shine a light on a different world
And carry out thoughts on golden rays

Someone's drinking all alone
Someone's left the TV on
I don't suppose, no I don't suppose

Someone's sleeping in my bed
Someone's let the genie in
I don't suppose, no I don't suppose
You know who you are
Who you are, who you are today

Baby's gone and died again
Taken by the tide again
And it's no surprise
She hates goodbyes

Someone's folding paper planes
Someone's on the line again
Someone's crying at the sonnet
Someone's hiding from someone

I don't suppose, no I don't suppose
You know who you are
Who you are, who you are today

The devil, take me now
Before I'm ushered out
'Cause you are like me
But I can bleed

And I can die
But I can't hide
From you

Prisoners of course
Taken by force
To smother my streams
Tonight in my dreams

'Cause I can die
But I can't hide
The way is clear
Away from here
And you

This is a garden, this is a steeple
I hear the crowd before I ever see the people
Yours for the making, and for the taking
There is a power in the vacuum we are making

You and I have a secret world
And we can keep it unfurled
And pay no attention to the cradle or the grave

And when we're crossed,
We can say that we're lost
In the middle of nowhere think you'll like it a lot
And if we're wrong and we end up alone
We'll light a candle for their innocent bones

You and I have a secret world
And we can keep it unfurled
And pay no attention to the cradle or the grave

You and I have a secret world
And we can keep it unfurled
And pay no attention to the cradle or the grave

And when we're crossed,
We can say that we're lost
In the middle of nowhere think you'll like it a lot
And if we're wrong and we end up alone
We'll light a candle for their innocent bones

You and I have a secret world
And we can keep it unfurled
And pay no attention to the cradle or the grave

And when we're crossed,
We can say that we're lost
In the middle of nowhere think you'll like it a lot
And if we're wrong and we end up alone
We'll light a candle for their innocent bones

Don't cry for me my baby
Don't say a word
Everyone knows you're a dangerous bird

Fly like a golden eagle
Sleek like the snow
Ticking your time bomb where ever you go

You're sinking a line without a trace
With elegant crimes against the state

Killing with kindness yeah
Making the most of the mess oh yeah
You're mother and childless yeah, yeah
Just kill them with kindness yeah, yeah

Bye cruel politician
Now you've been caught
Came from behind
It's a dangerous spot

Green are the seeds of envy
Watch how they grow
Everyone knows there's a fire down below

You're sinking a line without a trace
With elegant crimes against the state

Killing with kindness yeah
Making the most of the mess oh yeah
You're mother and childless yeah, yeah
Just kill them with kindness yeah, yeah

Killing with kindness
Raising the ghost from the flesh oh yeah
Don't blind them with science yeah, yeah
Just kill them with kindness yeah, yeah

Turn your back
And you might understand
Become your destiny
And you'll be a lucky man
Don't let anything stand in your way

Tell me a story of mind over matter
The hope and glory of life ever after
The sound and the fury the cloak and the dagger
Days when we sink like a stone

Porcelain portraits and silver medallions
Plasticine soldiers that march in battalions
Angels of mercy and lifelong companions
Days when we sink like a stone

There a room somewhere with a different look
Where your secret life is an open book
Where the love we made was a chance we took
Days when we sink like a stone

Ladybird fly away our friends are gone
Ladybird fly away our house is on fire

Let us be lovers we'll melt after midnight
Hoist up the mainsail we'll coast through the daylight
Twisted like candles that fade in the half-light
Days when we sink like a stone

Well we die sometimes to begin again
When the same old dreams have the same old end
When we lose our mind or we lose our friends
Days when we sink like a stone

Ladybird fly away our friends are gone
Ladybird fly away our house is on fire
Ladybird fly away our friends are gone
Ladybird fly away our house is on fire

Your friends have gone
Porcelain portraits and silver medallions
Your friends have gone
Plasticine soldiers that march in battalions
Your friends have gone
Angels of mercy and lifelong companions

Tell me a story of mind over matter
The hope and glory of life ever after
The sound and the fury the cloak and the dagger

Ladybird fly away our friends are gone
Ladybird fly away our house is on fire

Tired of this elegant life
With the best will in the world
It's a thorn in your side

Dazed, not a little confused
Let the patient do the work
They got nothing to lose

I told you
I'd hold you
'til the last days on earth

Ties that are tested and tried
Like the crushing of the waves
We'll be lost in the tide

Talk away the pain for the very last time
Like an echo in a cave
Let it die in your mind

I told you
I'd hold you
'Til the last days on earth

If you should fall into these opened arms
You would be blessed not just bemused
Wake up their mind love is alonely world
Where nothing on earth lies like a truth

Ties that are tested and tried
Like the crushing of the waves
We'll be lost in the tide

Talk away the pain for the very last time
Like an echo in a cave
Let it die in our mind

I told you
I'd hold you
'Til the last days on earth
