It's comming back the things you said to me, |
|
I'm hiding away from reality |
|
Denying myself all the better parts |
|
Then you slip back and say don't take it hard |
|
And then I find it hard to sleep at all |
|
Wishing I could give someone else a call |
|
Someone that's closer, closer, close to me |
|
Do you know the bar? |
|
The way to the bar? |
|
But it's clear and bright now, from the statements to the lies |
|
From the big black coffin, to the black under your eyes |
|
But if life is complex, why present a fake? |
|
And when I close my eyes, |
|
I still see this face |
|
Looking upon me, still upon me, still... |
|
No competition over ecstasy |
|
Find ebb and tide when you're confronting me |
|
I will admit all of my weaker parts |
|
But I shut up if you don't want my point |
|
My point of view to stand against your own |
|
But I don't need to be put down this way |
|
I'm going down this way, but you can stay |
|
Do you know the bar? |
|
The way to the bar? |
|
But it's clear and bright now, from the statements to the lies |
|
From the big black coffin, to the black under your eyes |
|
But if life is complex, why present a fake? |
|
And when I close my eyes, |
|
I still see this face |
|
Looking upon me, still upon me, still... |
|
And it's black, because |
|
I know it will never work for me |
|
And it's black, because |
|
I know I don't want us to be |
|
Another opportunity, wasted by all of these |
|
Loose-ends, "they don't know their own best" -friends |
|
And "let's pretends"... |
