Fear said "hide away". Shame said "wear those chains". Then I let guilt lie to me. And I believed everything. But you were there in my corner, yeah. The one telling me it's not over yet.
Bin unter Tränen eingeschlafen. Bin unter Tränen wieder aufgewacht. Hab' über dieselbe beschissene Frage. Zwei Millionen mal nachgedacht. Hab' mich verdreht und mich gewendet.
Somewhere sure, somewhere safe inside. A world where you reside. Where chance and trust have died. A world where you can. Hide away, hide away. No tomorrow, no today.
The Jekyll-Hyde of you. I can't survive the tide of you. The vicious style of love, the whining. Pits and pendulums of lying. I don't see how you survive in.
Something stops me from seeing too clear. A misty haze floats round the room. The murmurs make it hard to hear. The voices and the words. The days seem to drag away.
When pale turns to pink. With a soft unnerving ease. And all you've built around. May just tumble to the ground. . We stand or fall. With your future in another's hands.
I took a walk down New York avenue. Wearing my latest disguise. Enjoying the perfume of utter dismay. I was effectively anesthetized. Starving so arrogantly in jumble-sale clothes.
Calling cards of madness. Pull the brass men from their knees. To petrify more images to dangle. Just outside the reach. . Of the stunted and the dreamless ones.
So you think it's over. So you think that down's. The only way out. A sad excuse for lovers. With your head held high. And your heart still full of doubt.
It's warm tonight. It rained tonight. The windows are all open wide. Can't see the clock to check the time. Nothing is moving. When you walk through me.
Playing the game. With the chips on my shoulder. Checking in the mirror. As my coffee cup gets colder. . Stagger and swagger. Combing my hair. If tomorrow's not there.
We came to dance. Making moves from a passion play. . The ties that bind us just slip away.. We came to dance. The piper calls out a different rhyme. .
The words played on around our heads. Perhaps we went too far. We'll soldier on until the end again. . This clutching hand around my hand. So pitiful and frail.
Hai!. . Oh mystical East, on old postcards,. Your childhood dreams and energies.. Your temples' gardens, old world charm,. An ancient culture, torn and scarred..
(And we talked) Just the two of us.. (All the time) Nothing serious.. (We pretend) Time is on our side.. ('Til the end) When the scream subsides.. . Yes, we had it all, had the key gripped in our hands..
Face in the window in the night. Caught for a second by the light. Ashes of memories still aglow. Only for you. Portraits and pictures you once saw. Visions in blue.
Move on as we step in time. Strange words from the other line. Edging forward, feeling strong. Syncopate with the marching song. Thoughts and dreams flick across your mind.
Maximize your potential. Utilize the influential. Come take my hand. I`ll make you a true believer. Fantasize you're in heaven. Realize your religion.
You give me exaltation. Like a rush from the morning air. All the endless roads we've taken. Don't mean a thing I swear. Destiny brought us together. .
We walked in the cold air -. Freezing breath on the window pain. Lying waiting. . A man in the dark in the picture frame. So mystic and soulful.. A voice reaching out and a piercing cry.
