She said that time is unfair To a woman her age Now that wisdom has come Everything else fades She said she realizes She's seen her better days She said she can't look back To her days of youth What she thought were lies She later found was truth She said her daddy had dreams But he drank them away And her mother's to blame For the way she is today
Life's river shall rise She Said And only the strong shall survive She Said But I'm feeling quite weak She Said Will you comfort and forgive me She Said
She said she's still searching For salvation's light She said she wishes all day And she prays all night She said she won't speak of love Because love she's never known She said it's moments like these She hates to be alone
All around the world Everywhere I go No one understands me No one knows What I'm trying to say
No one understands me They look at me when I talk to them And they scratch their heads They go what's he trying to say
But you, you speak my language Yeah you, you speak my language
All around the world Everywhere I go No one understands me No one knows What I'm trying to say
Even in my hometown My friends make me write it down They look at me when I talk to them And they shrug their shoulders They say what's he talking about
There floats our conversation Like clouds in our minds We leave an open invitation To this world we've denied If I turn around Would that be my fault If I turn around Would that be my loss Feel the raindrops of impression Stinging from above What the price of this confusion We have yet to speak of If I turn around Would that be my fault If I turn around Would that be my loss Out of sight beyond confusion Still I'm here defining my own truth Paranoia by conclusion What's the point if I am still missing you
If I turn around
If I turn around
If I turn around Would that be my fault If I turn around Would that be my loss If I turn around If I turn around If I turn around
Yeah you want to 'Cause you say so 'Cause you need to Yeah you need to need to I don't want to I don't have to But you've got to Yeah you got to got to
Could you stay in line Do you follow what I say Can you read my mind Then off where you lay
Feel the water rise Can you swim now on your own Do you act surprised When you hear lies you have told
Oh now Now you're motoring Oh now Now you're fluttering Oh now now
In the air I'm tasting your perfection Forgive me dear for my misdirection As I crawl beneath this torture you adore I fall face to face with my scars you've ignored So tell me why it don't feel the same Tell me why I've got to feel this way Yeah you leave you're gone And I'm left here with the blame So tell me why it don't feel the same
All my props I swear they were in order Even with the warnings of your thunder Now I pause to let my silence scream tonight Awhile you roam like a serpent satellite So tell me why it don't feel the same Tell me why I've got to feel this way Yeah you leave you're gone And I'm left here with the blame So tell me why it don't feel the same
So tell me why it don't feel the same Tell me why I've got to feel this way Yeah you leave you're gone And I'm left here with the blame So tell me why it don't feel the same
I'm starting to feel loopy Your dizziness consumes me
* Jesus didn't speak English But I do think I understand The rhyme and the reason of a goody good gentlemen If I were one I'd swear I'd still be tasting your skin
The sky tonight is gracious to rain on me your sweetness I scream an explanation Your world is so contagious
