lyrics

 

  • Love, see the truth go down in flames
    Walk me through meaningless charades
    How comes, the end of all our days?
    Love, tell me, how long should I have waited

    For your world to be blown away
    Till your glory fades to grey

    I don’t have any war to wage
    Write down your story on the pages
    Do not go gentle, baby, rage
    Your moral, spread like it’s contagious

    Until your world would be blown away
    Until your glory fades of age

  • Rise now, broken thing
    A new day has come and gone
    Hear the phoenix sing
    Wipe the ashes from your brow

    Hear now, lonely child
    Whatever grief has crossed your way
    Soon the sun burns out
    Another turn, another page

    Ease now, little friend
    Come hang your head and shoulders down
    Dreams will grace the end
    Feel the tide of evening come

    Though all that the world,
    Instead of peace and reserve, would bring
    is trouble, every day

    The morning takes the dark away
    And leaves our grief with yesterday
    And all our troubles will fade

  • Some boys are single
    Some boys are alone
    Some like to mingle
    Some stay at home

    And though they’d like to sail the rainbow
    They’re looking for that heart of gold, but
    Love is like the weather

    And I used to chase every girl
    Till the end of the world
    If she told me she loved me
    I thought I’d find a little peace
    That could give me release and set me free

    Some girls are taken
    Some girls don’t mind
    Some like to fake it
    Some are out of time

    And though they’d like to sail the rainbow
    They love the heat they hate the storm, but
    Love is like the weather

    And I used to chase every girl
    Till the end of the world
    If she told me she loved me
    I thought I’d find a little piece
    That could be the part of me that’d set me free

    Me, I’ll stay by myself
    Only for a little while

  • A walk of life I stumble
    And won’t it be fun though
    To get lost
    Just a little bit rough

    From time to time I blunder
    From time to time I win, just because I can bluff
    Just a little enough

    But sometimes I’m looking for trouble
    Sometimes I’m looking for help
    Sometimes I’m looking for trouble
    Sometimes I’m looking for love

    Now you can call me crazy
    I like to get lazy, every now and then
    And then a little again

    But if you see the whole song
    You know that I can be strong
    And that in the end
    I can be a good friend

    But sometimes I’m looking for trouble
    Sometimes I’m looking for help
    Sometimes I’m looking for trouble
    Sometimes I’m looking for love

  • I want you
    To fill me up with
    All your wisdom
    Fuck me
    All night I dream of formulas and calculus
    I want you to teach me baby
    Take me on, I dare you to

    Take a leap in the water
    Take a swim in the pool
    Till it drags me under
    Breaking all the rules
    And it taking me over
    Feeling good
    Take a leap in your water
    Give me all you could

    I need you
    To give me all these
    Holy Visions
    Don't stop, This
    This is my Eternal Teenage Dream
    I need you to love me baby
    All night long, I want you to

    Take a leap in the water
    Take a swim in the pool
    Till it drags me under
    Breaking all the rules
    And it taking me over
    Feeling good
    Take a leap in your water
    Give me all you could

  • It’s where the time goes
    by in a long row
    waving at long roads
    leave and return

    it’s where the night shows
    signs of the unknown
    and tales of the untold
    waiting in the lull

    it’s where I grow wild
    and the tides roll high

    It’s where the shopkeep
    opens at dawn come
    sleepy town waits on
    the rising sun

    it’s in the still creek
    dust in the attic
    flickering light in
    lanterns last call

    it’s where I grow wise
    and the sighs go quiet

  • To be fair I thought I would be long gone.
    But the hands of time turn on.
    So I made a choice.
    Put the knife down, still the voice.
    I intend to see it through.

    So may my bones one day be rusty.
    May my voice be withered up.
    May my eyes be dull and dusty.
    May my knees be giving up.
    May my hands one day be shaking wildly, too.
    Darling, I intend to see all of it through.

    May my love become a memory.
    May my laugh be forgot.
    May my friends one day be dying.
    May my children grow up.
    Let them bury the burden of my grave.
    To my children, if you hear this, please be brave.
    Cause there’s life down the road.
    What a tale to be told!

    “You’ll be older too.”

    Counting all the days until infinity begins.
    The passing of the tide, it’s a race you’ll never win.
    But I intend to see it through.
