People killing,
people dying,
children hurt and hear them crying,
can you practice what you preach?
would you turn the other cheek?
Father, father, father help us
need some guidance from above
cause people got me, got me questioning where is the love!
...and as we kiss, I remember how it felt
to fall in love when I was young,
but I can't get that feeling back.
she tried a killer's grin on,
maybe I'm just too jaded now,
she got a killer waiting,
don't say you care, I know you do.
until you will leave I'll try and pretend
'cos we've got nothing to lose but us
so here we go again.
Tonight I'm alive just to say I love you to death.
When I feel like I can't go on
You tell me to go
And it's like I can't feel a thing
Without you around
And don't mind me if I get weak in the knees
Cuz you have that affect on me
You do
Everything you say
Every time we kiss I can't think straight
But I'm ok
"From seeing the worst to loving the strongest; People grow over time."
It's warm by the river, the weir keeps us cleen
The woodsmoke and cigarettes are all that we need
Marking the dirt with twigs and simple words spoke
Kicking the dust so we can just
Dance the dance that plays with fire
Play guitar and play inspired
You said you would leave not ever
Underneath the sky forever
It's cool by the sea when the pavement is hot
We take a walk down there to see what we've got
An old man collecting fifty beautiful words
Cleaning the beach so that he can teach us to
It's cool by the pane glass on the high street we played
But there's always a penny in the music we made
So far from home, with no means of return
Burning the bridge, so we always
We're so far from home
No need to return
There's so much that we have though
And so much we have learned
I've become so numb
I can't feel you there
Become so tired
So much more aware
Overcoming this all I want to do
Is be more like me and be less like you
And I know I may end up failing too
But I know you are just like me
with someone disappointed in you
Leave him numb. Leave him crushed.
All in all is all we are
I've been up for days,
Trying to find a way to write my confession down.
Seems every line I writes amiss,
At least this I'll admit.
I never hear that perfect sound.
But then the judge walks and says:
"Boy you cant pretend, You've got to be honest now."
My verdict has come in,
It says I'm guilty for my sins this time.
I thought I could escape,
But then I finally felt the weight,
Of my crimes.
This is passion, it's not love,
Infatuation never ends up right.
At least I won't be alone tonight.
'Cuz I don't want to be alone tonight.
The prosecution rests,
They had convincing evidence.
It seems I've been deceived.
So now I stand alone and wait for the first stone,
To be cast upon me.
My verdict has come in,
It says I'm guilty for my sins this time.
I thought I could escape,
But then I finally felt the weight of my crimes.
This is passion, it's not love,
Infatuation never ends up right.
At least I won't be alone tonight.
'Cuz I don't want to be alone tonight.
If convicted, I will surely do my time.
At least I won't be alone tonight.
'Cuz I don't want to be alone tonight.
Just because I'm losing
Doesn't mean I'm lost
Doesn't mean I'll stop
Doesn't mean I will cross
Just because I'm hurting
Doesn't mean I'm hurt
Doesn't mean I didn't get what I deserve
No better and no worse
I just got lost
Every river that I've tried to cross
And every door I ever tried was locked
Ooh-Oh, And I'm just waiting till the shine wears off...
You might be a big fish
In a little pond
Doesn't mean you've won
'Cause along may come
A bigger one
And you'll be lost
Every river that you tried to cross
Every gun you ever held went off
Ooh-Oh, And I'm just waiting till the firing starts
Ooh-Oh, And I'm just waiting till the shine wears off
Ooh-Oh, And I'm just waiting till the shine wears off
Ooh-Oh, And I'm just waiting till the shine wears off…
I'll never let them, I'll never let them
I'll never let them hurt you not tonight
I'll never let them, I can't forget them
I'll never let them hurt you, I promise
The only time you will find real light is when you're searching in the dark..
Staring out over the bridge,
A million camera flashes from the water down below,
Sunlight bouncing of the wake,
The scream of the sirens and the crash of police radios
And they ask her name
Would she please explain?
She simply chooses to say
