it would take a wider net to drag that deep
through all the years the years i beleived you you'd be hard pressed to face back of all the lies and fears that decieved you you say it doesnt matter now angels nothing standing in your way but you forgot to mention how you were done with me its not your problem anymore to be true to be kind to never walk away and its true you were blind no matter what i would say to you is there nothing sacred to you i will turn my back to the wind in your wake to the cold shards of the life strewn behind you your record scratched but these lines will break through the drone of time till their meaning will find you but you say it doesnt matter now angels nothing standing in your way did i forget to mention how im done with you its not my problem anymore to be true to be kind to never walk away and its true you were blind no matter what i would say to you is there nothing sacred to you to be true to be kind to never walk away and its true you were blind no matter what i would say to you is there nothing sacred is there nothing sacred |

You know the tricks of the trade
You can hit the soft spots at the center Dish it out and take it back Riding on the wave of your pompous ways But I know that sooner or later You'll have to wring your lovely hands in dismay You'll go back to the board room Add the numbers up and turn the page at the end of the day Where were you at the bleakest of moments? Where were you at the hint of success? When through the window of opportunity came The glimmer of a day in the sun Glimmer of a day in the sun You took the canvas of a life Torn with the wind and the loss could still pull you along Pocketing images one by one Of the past, toward your future, "A penny for your song" Position memories carefully You dust them off at holidays Then you'll go back to the board room And declare your passion for the new day But where were you at the bleakest of moments? Where were you at the hint of success? When through the window of opportunity came The glimmer of a day in the sun Glimmer of a day in the sun I don't think that it's me you've got in mind Looks like the blind still bluffing the blind Lead me on and lay me down 'Cause where were you? Where were you at the bleakest of moments? Where were you at the hint of success? When through the window of opportunity came The glimmer of a day in the sun Glimmer of a day in the sun ------------- Lyrics Powered by LyricFind Written By BROOKE, JONATHA Lyrics © Universal Music Publishing Group |

I never knew what enough was
Until I'd had more than my share Then I let the darkness in It was then I lost the dare It was then I lost the day There will be no prayers on your return And there will be no party thrown And you will find your inheritance Is the silence that's grown It is the seed that you've sown 'Cause you were the one sure thing The one sure thing Maybe I'm not crazy, just inconsolable Inconsolable There is no mystery to be revealed And so we tell the truth and then run I love you because I love you And I did think that you were the one But now I see who you've become 'Cause you were the one sure thing The one sure thing Maybe I'm not crazy, just inconsolable Inconsolable |

If you could take shake back a thousand tears
You could take back the crosses in your fingers You would know no better, better, better than me We were meant to be together Spinning freely, you could collide And lesser free and only subtle And the gift of union, crossbreath in this loveless life Cause you could stay now Cause we were meant to be together And I still see your face And I still wear that ring And I will not lie Its the hardest thing I still love you You dont want me You dont want me You dont want me Bless me father, for I am not myself Kiss me, my love, the right way Cause youre all that glitters, glitters, glitters to my shame We were meant to be together Cause I still see your face And I still hold that flame And I will not lie In that hopeless hour I still love you We were meant to be together Meant to be together Someday, someday, someday, someday... |

I'm retravelling this lifeline that's so close to home
We are on our way to West Point Where your perfect, blond cousin will throw his hat up in the air And we will watch it fall And I'm still the girl that loved you When your eyes were open wide I'm still the girl that wandered on and I'm still the girl that lied 'Cause when I'd tell the truth, you would run and hide But my hands get shaky and I think of all the reasons and I start to drink I get lonely, get depressed, can't sleep well nights, can't get dressed I can't help myself You'll order beer and a sandwich, at the bar at the hotel And you'll want to tell me something Just like every other time And our hopes will rise, And we'll watch them fall You're still written in my days, all the pages coming back to me I will carry you along, singing discreetly Old raincoat, two lives, no boyfriend, no wife Don't want to die here and nobody know Don't want to die here and nobody know But my hands get shaky and I think of all the reasons and I start to drink I get lonely, get depressed, can't sleep well nights, can't get dressed I can't help myself Don't want to die here and nobody know Don't want to die here and nobody know Don't want to die here and nobody know Don't want to die...here. |

Every morning I get up and I watch the war, watch the warAnd every morning it upstages all my favorite shows--Donahue, Hogan's Heroes(chorus:)It's the American way, the new world orderWe hold these truths to be self-evidentIn the American day, you must give and I shall take,And I will tell you what is moral and what's justBecause I want, because I will, because I can, so will I killEvery morning I get up and I raise the flag,Salute the monument of those who gave their livesAnd I guess war's OK, it's just a little inconvenient, but it's betterThan a video game...it's better than the movies(chorus)Because I want, because I will, because I can, so will I killAnd every morning I get up and I watch the war, watch the warAnd every morning it upstages everything I know...(chorus)Because I want, because I will, because I can, so will IBecause I want, because I will, because I can, so will IBecause I want, because I will, because I can, so will I

I'm going down to the river, I'm gonna look for you
I know you'll be waiting there, 'cause it's a woman's trick I'm gonna give you what you want, 'cause you've been asking And I don't even want to know your name But you'll remember mine You will remember my name You will remember my name You will remember my name, my name Like the nights in the movies, I'll be waiting And the days in the heat of her vengeance You'll know what I've wanted, what she wouldn't admit I'll show her, I'll show the world, just what they asked for And they'll remember my name They will remember my name They will remember my name They will remember my name And what you want most will elude you What you want most will elude you 'Cause everything, before it changes, seems to be made of gold Made of gold Made of gold Made of gold In some strange way I'm preparing myself for you I've been waiting all my life But I won't give you what you want, I won't fight I will live, and tell, and you will remember me, you'll remember my name You will remember my name You will remember my name You will remember my name, my name You'll try to hide me under the mattress, with all your other short sins But I'll come back, the click in my spine Will order our lives like a metronome You can't shut it off You can't shut it off You can't shut it off You can't shut it off And what you want most will elude you What you want most will elude you 'Cause everything, before it changes, seems to be made of gold Made of gold Made of gold Made of gold Made of gold And like the river, you will remember my song 'Cause love is a heartbeat away from here |

All things being equal,
Her beauty was not her fault And it was not her only advantage Midst the feast and the novelty- The manliness of his charms... So was it really such a shock, So much history in a kiss, Besides, they both knew it was over What do they have to worry about, just privacy and pain And the damage they've done Is this all? Can I go now? Is this all? So when you sleep do not dream The dreams they weigh you down When you carry them along with you They will wrack your lovely body Report back to your soul All the sickening sweets of the afternoon As we lose the last of innocence Like some romantic notion Buried by the fashion of disdain You can make the world your apple But take a bite before it sours Or you can make the world your charm or your chain Is this all? Can I go now? Is this all? |

'Cause you are there in my dreams and in my days
Like you've always been I've got a river of kin, a footbridge of neighbors The rest of my little world is Full-fledged strangers, full-fledged strangers But you think you know me Think it's just a matter of time 'Til you make me see the depth of your sincerity But I can't shake this The way on is no longer clear The bridge is out and the woods are dark and dear And I could get lost for trying, all my fears in ambush on the way 'Cause they are there in my dreams and in my days Like they've always been I'm waiting and there's still no one to meet my train I'm waiting and there's no one but myself to blame I'm waiting and there's still no one to meet my train Waiting, for you Love is love ??it could have gone either way 'Cause it is also love that walks away And I'll take one step back and pull the wool back over your eyes And I'll walk on 'Cause you are there in my dreams and in my days Like you've always been I've got a river of kin, a footbridge of neighbors The rest of my little world is Full-fledged strangers, full-fledged strangers I'm waiting and there's still no one to meet my train I'm waiting and there's no one but myself to blame I'm waiting and there's still no one to meet my train Waiting. |

L'allemand used to visit me in Paris, in ParisI remember the men, I remember the houses in ParisHis station nearby, I was his afternoonsWe didn't mind, we shared everything, everything, ParisHe'd come in looking for comfort, leave again looking to the left and the rightDid we see too much, say too littleStepping over every dark thingWould it all be true tomorrow?But he loves meFraming his face with my hands in the doorwayI try to decipher the friend from the foe in his eyesA man's skin will be blown back with time and confusion'Til it gathers by his ears in the same human shallows like sand at the seaDid he hear too much, say too littleCould any year recover what we lost in these?With the hum of the war in the run of the day, butI walk with my head held high and naked in the sunClaiming these streets for myselfI walk with my head held high and naked in the sunClaiming these streets for myself,AgainI am the unchanging narrative, I don't resolve neatlyAnd I am the unchained melody, the current of the need to surviveAnd I go on looking for comfort, I can no longer see to the left or the right, butI walk with my head held high and naked in the sunClaiming these streets for myselfI walk with my head held high and naked in the sunClaiming these streets for myself,Again.

If it was any other year or any other life
But this one's mine to carry on now, yes, it's mine to carry on now 'Cause I will always disappoint you, is it vengeance or your pride 'Til you lose me like that trinket on your bracelet Charming, charming In the dream it's all a test that I face by myself Lose the briefcase, lie at the airport, swallow the inky code We'll all answer in the end in our temporary tongue But for now, don't say anything, don't say anything Charming, charming, charming charming 'Cause there, at the garden verge I will pull you up in hope again No more second thought Will crowd you out of your desire To be loved, not touched, to be Blameless and ecstatic again This is all there is, no knowledge is too much to bear in the end And I want this more than anything and I want the damned red shoes And I want to lead Dorothy back home Here today, here tomorrow, here's the lay of the land Here's my heart, here's my sorrow, I surrender Charming, charming, charming, charming 'Cause there, at the garden verge I will pull you up in hope again No more second thought Will crowd you out of your desire To be loved, not touched, to be Blameless and ecstatic again This is all there is, no knowledge is too much to bear in the end. |
