Locked in to a dream. Step by step. Crawling but static. Unchanged, unchanged. . Locked into emotion. Finely tuned, aching to escape. Harmful, harmless.
I burnt the bridge that you were building. But I left here feeling guilty. That we couldnt see eye to eye. . Why cant we compromise?. Why are we choosing sides?.
(Tim Finn). You are used to confrontation. but the day will soon come. When you need a shoulder. I will make it easy for you. Point you to the shoreline.
Cut it out, cut it out. I know its what youre wanting to say. Burning up, burning up. I know why youre feeling this way. . There's an ache you can't erase.
How to say it. When it don't come. I'm not tryin' to be vague. But silent anyway. . Confusion. With a smile and a sigh. I'm glad for a friend. Though they really know it matters.
[;Verse]. Blinded by your own selfishness. You didnt notice my pain. Occupied with all your craves. I loved you, only in vain. . [;Verse]. You feed me false hopes.
Walk amongst us, taste the sweetness of our life,. turn from the grey, turn on the color.. Walk amongst us, taste the sweetness of our life,. come towards the light you'll see much clearer..
I been thinkin about the time before. Every time you leave,. And the pictures that keep playin in my mind;. I declare, I swear, I cant compare,. Simple things we shared,.
(Tim Finn/Neil Finn). You and I we circle each other. The truth is a powerful magnet. and beauty draws you in to her dragnet. then she sets you free. Strangeness and Charm.
I lost my way home, looking at myself. Searching for nothing. I knew all along where I belong. . Everyday, I stand in the light. I can take the stage but You are the one.
I've been walking the straight line. Living in my best friend's pocket. Been looking at my life. All the time, all the time. How can I do my work?. Always looking over my shoulder.
I sit on the front porch looking. With my face towards the sun. I was finally bold enough to say. Goodbye, so long. . When the wind is blowing my way.
(Finn). The hangman's in the noose. The prisoner is loose. The wheel has come around. And the velvet curtain coming down. And left it there. A suitcase on a chair.
Look at all the lonely hearts. Shivering out in the dark. Hiding from the truth. Cover up the proof. . Demons that Ive tried to hide. Imprison me in my own lies.
(Tim Finn). One PM on the seventh day. and my back was racked with pain. As we sat down once again. The wind built up with a restless sound. and my mind went round and round.
He walks into a crowded room. Smiles at everyone he sees. Another night, pretending he's alright. Can't find what he really needs. He's looking for. .
(Finn/Moginie). Tales from my head. Can't buy the book. No one's listening but I guess you could. Try whistling this. You say you're tired. Liquid as water.
You sit beside me. And I love you but I hate you. I dont want to feel this way. But I cant stop. . You reach for my hand. But I move it before you can.
(Tim Finn/Neil Finn). God's white beard hung down. Sacrilegious town. Sleek nostalgia blonde. the one you had your eyes on. As you came back from the altar.
(Finn/Moginie). Remember who we are supple and new. If I lose my way you'd tell me the truth for all it's worth. Lifting up your hand show me my rescue.
