I don’t want your tear to fade where it landed on the cloth it reminds me of your joy I don’t want it to dry out so I feel like I’m lost without you here with me we threw branches from the bridge and we watched them hit the water they made ripples in the stream and we walked and talked for summer so I feel warmth from you without you here with me I hate seeing that boy get to you he might think he’s great but he could use a little thought before he talks and some respect to go along seeing the tears roll from your eyes I bet he didn’t even think what those words had gone and done empty words that spill out hurt I wish this car could drive its self cause I just want to hold you now and I will take you in my arms let autopilot take control it’s always best to let it out you can’t just say there’s nothing wrong let it all build up inside until there’s no room left for fun remember on that very night we were driving in the dark we were four miles from your home I couldn’t wait to get us there fall for nothing and keep your wits right by you stand and watch them try anything to rob you it’s dog eat dog and each man for himself it never pierced me in a scream I never read it in a book I never saw it on a screen and you can’t say you told me so but I will be rude if that won’t mean I’ll be left out and I will not cry in front of you it makes you sad won’t be considered a pushover I’ll stand my ground and when I’ve seen enough I’ll turn about and walk right out without a care I hate when it seems they’re all out to get me the walls close in and the doors slam in my face sometimes I’m tired of my own consciousness but then I’d hate to I’d hate to be numb I’d hate to be numb you say I’ve noticed you around I think I’ve heard this song before and I’ve already learned from that mistake I know better now I know better now I won’t be making that mistake again what’s wrong with having a little fun what’s wrong with being faithful and I’ve already learned from that mistake I know better now I know better now I won’t be making that mistake again chewing up my mind and blowing it out like it was bubblegum all the stars knew all along knew one day that they would be outshone and all the stars beyond the sun knew one day that you would come along and blast them out the sky and put them in your eyes so beautiful too beautiful to hide a beautiful disguise or beautiful inside I don’t know I know I want to find all the stars are jealous of you now you make them dull somehow I used to think of them as the most beautiful things but now I judge beauty on a scale of one to you all the stars hidden in the shade darkened by the shadow that your beauty made and all the stars beyond the sun knew one day that you would come along all the stars beyond the moon could never outshine the beauty that is you one day I went to the forest I saw someone drop a white box next day I went back the same place I saw a rabbit must have smoked the whole packet red hot burning very brightly it’s another forest fire charcoal no leaves smoky smelly no life thick air suffocating grey sky black clouds grey ground black scene I can’t wait till the forest grows green see someone knock at his door there is never reply boarded up windows with holes the size of his eye the odd rat or bat makes the sound when the light has gone down Oliver’s twisted don’t you think that there’s no one around stays in at home and sharpens his knives for a day he’s been waiting for all of his life trying to cover for the fact he’s not all right Oliver’s twisted and he won’t come out tonight he’ll scare the shit out of you and he’ll make you feel two foot small Oliver’s Twisted and he won’t come out at all he’s a creep he’s a freak he is not all there two thousand pound phone bill in the last half year he’s a prank he’s a crook a disgrace to himself I hope the rumours aren’t true he’s not good for our health don’t go to his home not even with the mail he’ll suck you through the letterbox and stab you with a nail I know you want to go but you won’t say so and you’ll never get your chance to show you can let yourself go but can you bring yourself back do you stand and fight a losing battle try to run when you’ve no legs to stand on and chase after all the dreams you’ve shattered then carry on you carry on when he told me what he’d seen what did he really mean he was telling of a place he’d never been he said something about a dream that in three steps I could live he said effort patience and belief the only ingredients I would need and if I were to fall at least I’d have tried it and that’s how you learn that’s how you learn where we meet again can we stay forever can you tell me why you are not scared it's not about nice gestures it's all about the feelings that you have and it's not about the process it's just about the effort that you make you take your time make sure you take your time you put it off you always put it off it's not about all your plans it's just about the actions that you take where we meet again can we stay forever can you tell me why you are not scared fears that fall on our eyes when darkness swallows say that you'll return to put things right do you know why your friend looks down or know just why they are so quiet or why your neighbours not been round or why your precious has been crying you’ve got to separate facts from the lies and find your own way home you’ve got to look for truth in the eyes and find your own way home all the voices in my head they don’t make my decisions easier they tell me what to do and how to think to my mind mud is clearer you’ve got to separate facts from the lies and find your own way home so bloody full of good advice but you must find your own way home you’ve got to find your own way... |
