Ever since we said our good-byesThe onion rings, the phone makes me crySomething isn't rightLike the Deep Blue without the Great White In the morning open your eyesThe waterfalls, the fire fliesYou're an abacusAnd my heart was counting on us Your heart's got a heavy loadThere's still a long way to goKeep your eyes on the road Crescent moon sings me to sleepThe birches bark, the willows weepBut I lie awake; I'm adrift without a snowflake Your heart's got a heavy loadThere's still a long way to goKeep your eyes on the road

The moon is fullBut there is an incompletenessThe days are beautifulBut I feel a bitter sweetnessIf I had a wish, or even a choice, I'd wake up to the sound of your voice Oh, how I miss waking up to the sound of your voice I let you downAnd fell right off your good listI hope each day you'll find peaceAnd forgivenessThe alarm clock ringsWhat a lonely noiseAnd I long for the sound of your voice Oh, how I miss waking up to the sound of your voice Take it from me: there's not much to seeIn this void The saying goesThere will be other dancesThis little song is aboutSecond chancesJust say the wordAnd I will rejoiceAnd wake up to the sound of your voice Oh, how I miss waking upTo the soundTo the soundTo the soundTo the soundWaking up to the sound of your voice Take it from me: there's not much to seeIn this void

Side of the road I stopped andPicked up the pieces of your carYou were just standing, speechlessKnowing you'd never travel farThat's what you do when someone's given up on youThat's when I knew I was giving upAnd giving inThat's when I knew where I wasThat's when I knew I was home Stuck in the middle of the roadFor better or worse we compromiseYou may have won my hand, dearBut it was the consolation prizeThat's when I knew that I was running out on youThat's what you do when time is running outRunning downThat's when I knew where I wasThat's when I knew that I was home Where does the heart resideIf not where I lay my head?I could run but I'm petrifiedAnd choose this insteadAgainAnd again End of the road I'm runningAnd look back to survey where I'd beenSomeday I'll write and ask youIf you could imagine what I'd seenHow could you think that I could turn my back on you?How did you think this would be turning out?And turning aroundWhat could I do but call you?What could I do but call this home?That's when I knew where I wasThat's when I knew that I was home

I'm a kid in a candy storeI'm a bull in a china shopI'm a tired old metaphorFor everything you can't affordAnd everything you can't afford to be I'm a public embarrassmentI'm a bottle of diet poisonI'm a walking advertisementFor everything I never meantAnd everything I never meant to be I can't hear a thingCause I've stopped listening I'm the reason I don't go outI'm afraid I might tell me somethingI'm the shadow of every doubtI'm the product the song's aboutAnd I'm the product the song's about to be I can't hear a thingCause I've stopped listeningI can't hear a thingCause I've stopped listening Every morningSince I was bornIt's been hard to look in the mirrorAnd see my face for the horns All the fun that the law allowsAll the fun but with half the meaningCome on over, I'll show you howIf you lived here, you'd be home by nowIf you still lived here, you'd be home now with me I can't hear a thingCause I've stopped listeningI can't hear a thingCause I've stopped listening

On the path of life, I wish you wellDivergent journeys, we will meet again in HellKept my head down and movedTill every friend I'd known was gone Then one day, I was not aloneEverything had changedEverything was strangeEverything had changedEverything was strange When in rags and when in wealthA solemn promise never to give too much of myselfDespite the hopeful words I've saidI've lived my life inside my head Then one day, I was not aloneEverything had changedEverything was strangeEverything had changedEverything was strange I hold my breath and count to tenI hate it now, hated it thenSeen it all beforeA failure and a boreThat's what friends are for So it seems I must have wonAs I survey the ashes of the damage that I've doneEveryone I've ever knownIs just as closed off and alone Then one day, I was not aloneEverything had changedEverything was strangeEverything had changedEvery thing

It was often talked about; it was often raisedBut nothing was ever done about itTo hear the way they talked about it, no one could be savedBut nothing was ever done about it Shall I take back everything I've ever saidAnd live my whole life in silence instead? It was oversimplified; it was under-thoughtAnd nothing was ever done to stop itEverything was fortified by all the lies we boughtAnd nothing was ever done to stop it Shall I take back everything I've ever said(Shall I take back all my attacks? All of my accusations?)And live my whole life in silence instead?(All my mistrust - we never discussed anyone's reservations) There was a time when a crime was a crimeBut now I think I'm losing my mindOr taking it all too hardTaking it all too hardTaking it all too hard Shall I take back everything I've ever said(Shall I take back all my attacks? All of my accusations?)And live my whole life in silence instead?(All my mistrust - we never discussed anyone's reservations)Keep to myself Maybe you're rightMaybe you're rightMaybe you're rightBut I don't think so

It's hard enough to noticeHarder still to reactJust a stone's throw from the center of our attentionWe all fade to black Save me from a villainous imaginationDeliver me from my friendsIf I said something to make you madI will take it back It's hard enough to stomachBut try to look awayIs this a news report or a trailer for a motion picture?It all fades to gray Save me from a villainous imaginationDeliver me from my friendsIf I said something to make you madI will take it back Long lines and warning signsThink of all the lives saved by plastic knivesIt's naive, but make believeWe will never lose if we remove our shoes It's hard to keep your mouth shutHarder still to make noiseBut we can't have the perfect 20/20 hindsightThat our fate enjoys Save me from a villainous imaginationDeliver me from my friendsIf I said something to make you madI will take it backI will take it back
