I hope all of my days will be lit by your faceI hope all the years will hold tight our promisesI don't want to be old and sleep aloneAn empty house is not a homeI don't want to be old and feel afraid I don't want to be old and sleep aloneAn empty house is not a homeI don't want to be old and feel afraid And if I need anything at allI need a place that's hidden in the deepWhere lonely angels sing you to your sleepThough all the world is brokenI need a place where I can make my bedA lover's lap where I can lay my headBecause now the room is spinningThe day's beginning

A turning tideLovers at a great divideWhy do you laughWhen I know that you hurt inside? And why do you say"It's just another dayNothing in my wayI don't want to goI don't want to staySo there's nothing left to say?"And why do you lieWhen you want to dieWhen you hurt inside?Don't know what you lie for anywayNow there's nothing left to say A tell-tale signYou don't know where to draw the line And why do you say"It's just another dayNothing in my wayI don't want to goI don't want to staySo there's nothing left to say?"And why do you lieWhen you want to dieWhen you hurt inside?Don't know what you lie for anywayNow there's nothing left to say Well for a lonely soul you're having such a nice timeFor a lonely soul you're having such a nice timeFor a lonely soul it seems to meThat's you're having such a nice timeYou're having such a nice time

I always thought that I knewI'd always have the right toBe living in the kingdom of the good and true and so onBut now I think I was wrongAnd you were laughing alongAnd now I look a fool for thinking you were on my side Is it any wonder I'm tired?Is it any wonder that I feel uptight?Is it any wonder I don't know what's right? Sometimes it's hard to know where I standIt's hard to know where I amWell maybe it's a puzzle I don't understandSometimes I get the feeling that I'mStranded in the wrong timeWhere love is just a lyric in a children's rhyme, a soundbite Is it any wonder I'm tired?Is it any wonder that I feel uptight?Is it any wonder I don't know what's right?Oh these days!After all the misery madeIs it any wonder that I feel afraid?Is it any wonder that I feel betrayed? Nothing left beside this old cathedralJust the sad lonely spiresHow do you make it right?Oh but you try Is it any wonder I'm tired?Is it any wonder that I feel uptight?Is it any wonder I don't know what's right?Oh these days!After all the misery madeIs it any wonder that I feel afraid?Is it any wonder that I feel betrayed?

You must think I'm a foolSo prosaic and awkward and allDo you think you've got me down?Do you think I've never been out of this town? Do I seem too eager to please to you now?You don't know me at allI can't turn it on turn it off like you nowNo I'm not like you now Now you're hereI bet you're wishing you could disappearI'm trying to be kindI get the feeling you're just killing time You look down at meDon't you look down at me nowYou don't know me at allA slap in the face, in the face for you nowJust might do now You're leaving so soon?Never had a chance to bloomBut you were so quick to change your tuneDon't look back if I'm a weight around your neckBecause if you don't need me I don't need you Leaving so soon?Leaving, leaving so soon? You're leaving so soon?Never had a chance to bloomBut you were so quick to change your tuneDon't look back if I'm a weight around your neckBecause if you don't need me I don't need you

Why do I have to fly over every town up and down the line?I'll die in the clouds above and you that I defend I do not love I wake up, it's a bad dream, no one on my sideI was fighting but I just feel too tired to be fightingGuess I'm not the fighting kind Where will I meet my fate?Baby I'm a man I was born to hateAnd when will I meet my end?In a better time you could be my friend I wake up, it's a bad dream, no one on my sideI was fighting but I just feel too tired to be fightingGuess I'm not the fighting kindWouldn't mind it if you were by my sideBut you're long gone, yeah you're long gone now Yeah Where do we go?I don't even know my strange old faceAnd I'm thinking about those daysAnd I'm thinking about those days I wake up, it's a bad dream, no one on my sideI was fighting but I just feel too tired to be fightingGuess I'm not the fighting kindWouldn't mind it if you were by my sideBut you're long gone, yeah you're long gone now Yeah

I don't want to be adoredDon't want to be first in lineOr make myself heardI'd like to bring a little lightTo shine a light on your lifeTo make you feel loved No, I don't want to be the only one you knowI want to be the place you call home I lay myself down to make it soBut you don't want to knowI give much more than I'd ever ask for Will you see me in the end?Or is it just a waste of timeTrying to be your friend?Just shine, shine, shineShine a little lightShine a light on my lifeAnd warm me up again Fool, I wonder if you know yourself at allYou know that it could be so simple I lay myself down to make it soBut you don't want to knowYou take much more than I'd ever ask for Say a word or two to brighten my dayDo you think that you could see your way To lay yourself down and make it so?But you don't want to knowYou take much more than I'd ever ask for

Time goes by at such a paceIt's funny how it's easy to forget her faceYou hide the cracks, the facts will find youTurn your back and leave the lonely days behind you now You better put it behind you nowYou better put it behind you nowToo much to hold on, hold on toYou better put it behind you now All the things you took for grantedHit you like a bullet in the gutYou can't get upWell are you even going to try?Because if you never even tryTime will pass you by You better put it behind you nowYou better put it behind you nowToo much to hold on, hold on toYou better put it behind you nowYou better put it behind you nowToo much to hold on, to hold on toYou better do what's best for you Don't care what she saidOnly in your headTime will help you outStill you don't see how You better put it behind you nowYou better put it behind you nowToo much to hold on, to hold on toYou better do what's best for you

Who is the man I seeWhere I'm supposed to be?I lost my heartI buried it too deepUnder the iron sea Oh crystal ball, crystal ball save us allTell me life is beautifulMirror, mirror on the wall Lines ever more unclearNot sure I'm even hereThe more I look the more I think that I'mStarting to disappear Oh crystal ball, crystal ball save us allTell me life is beautifulMirror, mirror on the wallOh crystal ball hear my songI'm fading outEverything I know is wrongSo put me where I belong I don't know where I amAnd I don't really careI look myself in the eyeThere's no one thereI fall upon the earthI call upon the airBut all I get is the same old vacant stare Oh crystal ball, crystal ball save us allTell me life is beautifulMirror, mirror on the wallOh crystal ball hear my songI'm fading outEverything I know is wrongSo put me where I belong

I fell asleep on a late night trainI missed my stop and went round againWhy would I want to see you now?To fix it up, make it up somehow Baby I'll try again, try againBaby I die every night, every time What I was isn't what I amI'd change back but I don't know if I can Still I'll try, try again, try againBaby I die every night, every time But I was made the way I amI'm not a stone, I'm just a manLay down your arms and I will lay down mineRip back the time that we've been wasting God I wish You could see me nowYou'd pick me up and You'd sort me out Baby I'll try again, try againBaby I die every night, every time
