Sleep now darling
Fade on away
Although you're at my side
I watch you fade away
Staring at the sun
Waiting for the rain
Still I can't find
Still I'm away
Staring at the sun
Waiting for the rain
Blowing vapor clouds
Blotting out the pain
Staring at the sun
Waiting for the rain
Dance into the night
(blotting out the sun)
Dance the pain away

Quiet - don't speak - quiet - hush
Silence - kills me - don't say another word
Don't call me tonight - don't tell me you're right
Just lay down beside me - I'll hold you tight
If I could get down inside you
Turn off your brain silence the pain
If I could get down inside you
Silence the pain
Don't speak - quiet - drive
Silence - kills me - bury me in your heart
(calling - I don't think - trying - so hard - dying - kill me - don't let me)
(quiet - don't - quiet - hush)
Shhh

Babe I stayed awake last night counting down my time
I made a list of all mistakes I made back in my prime
I wrote a tome of bad decisions but regrets I could find none
Felt as if my life had ended long long before it begun
I can never sleep at night
Babe I stayed awake last night
Wrote last will and testament
Didn't want to scare you with my bitter underspent lament
Don't want you to see me here no don't want me to spoil the sun
Felt as if my life had ended long long before it begun
I can never sleep at night
Unless we see the sky fall down
Unless the rust devours the crown
Unless the sun descends into
A perfect endless night with you
I can never sleep at night

For all those who remained insane
For those who turn away from blame
For all the years dissappear
For all the songs remain unheard
I don't know where it went so wrong
We tried we fought we toiled so long
Been brushed aside and turned away
Been beaten down like dogs astray
For all that never was
And I see you going down that road
And we seem to be getting much too old
Cause we're all astray
We're all astray
We're all astray

She lit a candle in the rain
Her tears would hardly leave a stain
The night forgave her sins once more
A silence never heard before
Gone gone gone
She cried
Come come come
My love love love
Come come home tonight
Some wilting flowers on his grave
A rotten feeling left to crave
Some dirt removed, a violent sigh
A muffled scream, a stifled cry
Gone gone gone
She cried
Come come come
My love love love
Come come home tonight

There's always a girl
There's always a gun
There's always a bullet
Got me on the run
There's always a town
I'm always the stranger
There's always a danger
In falling in love
There's always a way
To make it all better
There's always a day
It all goes wrong
There's always a tear
Unseen in the rain
There's always a pain
As she goes
And when she said
The dream is dead
I'd just pretend
I didn't hear
And when she whispered
You really still miss her
I silently kissed her
To rid her of fear
There's always a girl
There's always a gun
There's always a bullet
Stuck deep in my heart
As I turn away
And she pulls the trigger
My smile grows bigger
As I think of you

Night crept on up on me again
Thoughts of her face are seeping in
Wait for the day I go insane
I would be gone again (so my ol head stops listening)
The moon's a liar the stars are fake
Another hour passed me by
They should have burnt her at the stake
I would be first to start the fire
Oh la da da na na
So dig along my shallow grave
And find the riches they have buried me with
Should be enough to get away
And keep her ashes in a rusty tin
I'll pour them into the blackened sand
Atop the cemetery beach I'll stand
And then I'll walk into the red sea
So no one ever can get rid of me hey
La da da na na
