I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing
Roman cavalry choirs are singing
Be my mirror my sword and shield
My missionaries in a foreign field
For some reason i can't explain
I know St peter will call my name
Never honest work
but that was when i ruled the world
Leave him numb. Leave him crushed.
All in all is all we are
Not even fair
To box away those old faces.
Not even close
To the way it was then,
When everyone would stay away
From you.
And I don't remember how
Just the way the water fell down there
Could make you cry.
Half these embers flew away
Into the dry brushes, they were taken
By the fire.
That sound drifting off outside,
There's an unlit drizzle going on,
That sound faucets off.
Hang me out the window,
No resolve.
It's all away.
For every piece of rice that falls
Another one falls in your shorts.
Eliminate the stasis burden.
If everyone was like Lou Rawls
Then no more guys would sing with drawls.
Relax the guards, alright?
You got me on a leash, a damn damn leash,
And it's hard enough to be myself.
You got me on a leash, a damn damn leash,
And it's hard enough to be myself.
Well, I've got my problems over here,
You got yours over there.
So stop throwing **** on me
Because you know it's not fair.
Stop dragging me around, around and around,
Because it's hard enough to be my damn self.
Stop dragging me around, around and around,
Because it's hard enough to be my damn self.
Around, around, around, around...
Well, I've got my problems over here,
You got yours over there.
So stop throwing **** on me
Because you know it's not fair.
You got me on a leash, a damn damn leash,
And it's hard enough to be my damn self.
You got me on a leash, a damn damn leash,
And it's hard enough to be my damn self.
Lightning struck me
I see the path I
was so scared of
And fly to the stars
Conviction now
increasing at last
My skin is broken
I see the smallest part of me
My mind is alive
But I'll never bow to this again
Why do they call me there
How can I fly to
All this water
I don't feel like
I could ever swim to them
Whales in the sky
I feel they're so close
Inside, and yet so far away
Burst into tears, I feel sad
My dreams aflame
The force is now away
Lie on a stone,
Drop this load and cry to see
The ocean planet is on burn
...Sticks and stones may break my bones; but words, they scar forever...
When my time comes
forget the wrong that ive done
help me leave behind some
reasons to be missed
and dont resent me when youre feeling empty
keep me in your memory
leave out all the rest
Leave him numb. Leave him crushed.
All in all is all we are
'Call me good
Call me bad
Call me anything you want to baby
But I know that youre sad
And I know Ill make you happy
With the one thing that you never had
Baby, Im your man (dont you know that? )
Baby, Im your man
You bet!
If youre gonna do it, do it right - right?
Do it with me'
I love Wham.
Now I'll play your ghost as my ace, whenever I'm led astray.
But I am actually good, can't help it if we're tilted.
I'm in my right place, don't be a downer.
Can you help me remember how to smile?
make it somehow all seem worthwhile?
How on earth did i gedt so jaded?
life mysteries seem so faded
i can go where no one else can go
i know what no one else knows!!
here i am just drowning in the rain
with a ticket for a runaway train
Leave him numb. Leave him crushed.
All in all is all we are
Cheap cocaine, a dry inhale, the pills that kill and take
the pain away
Diet of life, shelter without, the face that cannot
see inside yours and mine
Pre-chorus:
When I'm hiding, when I need it, it lets me
breathe, for our handle on this life, I don't believe
this time
Would you look at me now?
Can you tell I'm a man?
With these scars on my wrists
To prove I'll try again
Try to die again, try to live through this night
Try to die again.....
Forever fooling, free and using, sliding down the slide that breaks a will
Mothers angel, getting smarter, how smart are
you to regress unfulfilled? It's a damn shame, but who's to blame?
-How could something so right
Turn out so wrong?-
-You spent your time making excuses for the ways of life that you are choosing-
I should have seen those signs all around me, But I was comfortable inside these wounds;
So go ahead and take another piece of me now
While we all bow down to you;
You tear me down and then you pick me up,
You take it all and still it’s not enough,
You try to tell me you can heal me,
But I’m still bleeding and you’ll be
The death of me!
How can you end my affliction
If you’re the sickness and I’m the cure?
Too long I’ve faked this addiction,
Another sacrifice to make us pure;
You tear me down and then you pick me up,
You take it all and still it’s not enough,
You try to tell me you can heal me,
But I’m still bleeding and you’ll be
The death of me!
You tear me down and then you pick me up,
You take it all and still it’s not enough,
You try to tell me you can heal me,
But I’m still bleeding and you’ll be
The death of me!
I won’t forget;
I cannot forget this;
I won’t forget;
I’ll never forget this;
I won’t forget;
I cannot forget this;
I won’t forget;
I’ll never forget this;
I won’t forget!
I cannot forget this!
I won’t forget!
I’ll never forget!
You know I can never prove this solution;
You aren’t the one that I thought you were;
And so I learn to embrace this illusion,
The line that separates- it starts to blur;
You tear me down and then you pick me up,
You take it all and say it’s not enough,
You try to tell me you can heal me, But I’m still bleeding and you’ll be
The death of me!
And you’ll be the death of me!
I will not forget!
I cannot forget this!
And you’ll be the death of me!
It's been eighteen days, since I first held you
but to me it feels just like
it feels like a lifetime
I'm trying hard to re-arrange
but some say its the hardest thing to do
that's another eighteen days
without you....
Time after time
I've been through this
you've shown me what it means to live
you gave me hope when I was hopeless
As my dreams fade tonight
I remember that state of mind
I'm soaring straight to your heart
and I'll fly high
Cause it's been eighteen days
since I first held you
but to me it feels like, it feels like a lifetime
