This problem is insoluble The answers seem impossible The logic ceases to exit Emotion is the beat we miss
I stand on a world Where dreams, realities, existence are the same We take from our mother? skin But the world is not to blame
Who tells the wind which way to blow ? I wonder who will stop the rain The rocks that hold the secrets, they don? know So who can stop the rain ? We?e lost the path for all we know Now tell me when will it start again ? And as the old man lifts his hands Please can you stop the rain
Stars fall far away Like they never did before A new moon shining Like it never will again
Desert white cloud Spirits they sing Rain falls from the big sky Onto broken wing
There is no sense in turning back To wash the d?bris from the track World without reason without rhyme We fought for peace within our time
Wheels turn - smoke rise Chrome wings - low ride Freeway - red line To city lights electric I glide If there? escape from your illusion You gotta break the whole constitution
Concrete - touch sky Main street - dogs lie Steel bird - black tie Is this what they call the freedom you buy ? Look at him behind the delusion All you hear is the voice of confusion
CHORUS The bad boy? back The bad boy? back in town The bad boy? back Don? you shoot him down
Wheels spin - ace high No win - no life One world - truth lies Love? just a word on a red neon sign If there? escape from the conclusion You gotta shake the whole institution
CHORUS
If there? escape from your illusion You gotta break the whole constitution
Love under fire We stand in the flame Now and forever After the rain When is forever ? You can take it from me It may be never C?st la vie
Love under fire And we stand in the flame Now and forever After the rain When is forever ? You can take it from me It may be never Just wait and see
You can hide in the jungle You can climb up a tree You can scan the horizon Tell me what do you see ? As cold as a mountain With a heart that can freeze There? a storm on the water With every heart that she sees
Nothing ventured nothing gained Tired and washed out by the pain Do we share this problem, will it slip away ? Or do we fight another day ? Was I looking for a friend ? One I count on ?ill the end Is there something that I didn? do ? Does it all begin with you ?
CHORUS So how did I, Oh I Give you reason ? But how did I, Oh I Give you reason ?
After all the fallen tears When we wake the taken dream Who let the water slowly draw away ? All the colours that we made
CHORUS
To give you reason, to change the river? flow To give you reason, to point the bone To give you reason, go set your spirit free I don? know, I don? know why
Is there nothing I can say ? Is there nothing I can do, girl ? Didn? mean to break your life Didn? mean to burn your world, no
CHORUS
You can keep the silver band You can have the memories, girl Now as 'Pilate' cleans the hands It? no more to do with me, no
CHORUS
So how did I, Oh I Give you reason ? Let the voice of reason say:
Dreams that have melted now frozen like statues Under the surface here lies the unknown Love has a way of disguising it? purpose Seeing your pain my hand goes out to you
You should have known better than to trust him How the pain shines through your eyes
Nothing hits harder than a crime of the heart It breaks you up and it tears you apart You just want to die, you?e been so abused Now you know how it feels to be used Nothing hurts harder than a crime of the heart I? such a fool, I should have known from the start I saw it coming and I feel I? to blame But love don? give in
I watch your face as you stare into distance Eyes filled with tears that look so far away Deep in your heart can you feel a resistance ? Love it just happens there? no-one to blame
You should have known better than to sacrifice The stained-glass soul you hide
Nothing hits harder than a crime of the heart It? the kind of feeling that pulls you apart There? nowhere to run, there? nothing to say You never knew that you could feel this way Nothing hurts harder than a crime of the heart I could have told you he was wrong from the start I? not guilty, but I feel I? too blame My love won? give in
You know i'll never understand your reasons I gave you all the love that i could give Now i'm sitting on a plane to take me far away I've got to find a new place to live
It used to feel so good when you stood beside me How can you forget the words you said? Things like: i'm gonna stay with you forever Will always echo in my head
Don't call me, don't call me, no more
If this plane ride lasts forever I couldn't quite get over you We spent too much time together I can't believe we're through
I am caught in the heat Hold your head as you sleep How can I close my eyes watching you Such a fever inside from emotions within Burning the night with the truth
Sweetest poison - positive attraction Raging in my mind
CHORUS Oh if you walk away You?l take the life from me Oh if you walk away You?l take the air I breathe Life would be lonely More than you?l never know ?os you?e put all heaven on earth
I hear the sound of your voice On the breath of the wind I feel the touch of an angel Next to my skin It cuts so deep inside It draws out the life Harder with every time
Sweetest poison - positive attraction Raging in my mind
