Doll Revolution

I don't think about us much anymore
Frankly, the topic has become a bore
And you don't come up much in my conversation
I don't think about you on vacation
But when it rains
When it rains
When it rains
That's when I remember
That's when I remember
I remember you
I remember you
I don't think about you when I'm sleeping
It doesn't even cross my dreamlike mind
I don't think I see your face through the curtains
Hell, I don't even miss you half the time
But when it rains
When it rains
When it rains
That's when I remember
That's when I remember
I remember you
I remember you
I'm doing fine as long as you stay locked up
Inside a cloud of grey
Rain, rain
Rain, rain, rain
Rain, rain, rain
But when it rains
When it rains
When it rains

But when it rains
When it rains
When it rains
That's when I remember
That's when I remember
I remember you
I remember you
Well that's when I remember
The only time I remember
When I remember you

You're sending me mixed messages
Mixed messages that I can hardly work through
Where the heart lies
Which message is coming truly from you
When I get too close to you
I feel the fear, can almost hear it
Then you call me late at night saying can I be with you
I wanna be with you
You're sending me mixed messages
Mixed messages that I can hardly work through
Where the heart lies
Which message is coming truly from you
You keep your thoughts to yourself
You keep me guessing while we're undressing
Then you're gone for days on end and
Here we go again
Here we go again
You're sending me mixed messages
Mixed messages that I can hardly work through
Where the heart lies
Which message is coming truly from you

It can't keep bouncing around like this
You cut me loose then pull me in for a kiss
If you know what you want
Why don't you tell me, clearly
Wonder why it bothers me
I wonder why I even wonder why

If I had another lover, well, would it get to you
Would I get through
This puzzle of mixed messages
Mixed messages, that I can hardly work through
Where the heart lies
Which message is coming truly from you

You're sending me mixed messages
Mixed messages that I can hardly work through
Where the heart lies
Which message is coming truly from you

Who dries your eyes when you cry real tears?
Who knows or cares what an imitation is?
(Only you do)
You can paint his nails
Make him wear high heels
Why waste time altering the hemline
(or do you)
Tear Off Your Own Head
Tear Off Your Own Head
It's a doll revolution
You can bat your lashes
You can cut your strings
Pull out his hair with your moveable fingers
(It looks so real)
But one won't do it so collect the set
Dress him up in pink ribbons
Put him in a kitchenette
(How does this feel?)
Tear Off Your Own Head
Tear Off Your Own Head
It's a doll revolution

What's that sound
It'll turn you around
It's a Doll Revolution

They're taking over
And They're tearing it down
It's a Doll Revolution
Revolution

You can pull and pinch it
Til it cries and squeals
You can twist its' body
Til it faces backwards
(Plastic Features)

You can make somebody
A pretty little wife
Don't you let anybody tell you
How to live your life
(Broken Pieces)

Tear off your own head
Tear off your own head
It's a Doll Revolution

Tear off your own head
Tear off your own head
It's a Doll Revolution

What's that sound
It'll turn you around
It's a Doll Revolution

They're taking over
And They're tearing it down
It's a Doll Revolution
It's a Doll Revolution
Revolution, revolution

Tear off your own head
Tear off your own head.....

Oh my love you say this is the end
I'll tell you it's the hardest thing
I've ever had to do my friend

But I'll go
I'll do what you say
But when I walk
I will walk away from you

And the dark place you come from
The hurt you share between the two
Run now, hide what you know to be the truth

But you know
I will walk away
I'll pretend
I don't feel something breaking
Look at yourself
it does no good to cry
It's not forever

But hey, you think that I'm so strong
You think I've got it all
Maybe you're wrong

So go
I'll do what you say
But when I walk I will walk away

Hey hey
I'll do what you say
I'll pretend
I don't feel something breaking...

Take all of the money
Take all of the sweet plum of the pie
Don't say that you love me
Don't say it's for me it's a lie
Now you got yourself so wrapped up in it
All you gotta do is wait a minute
All you gotta do is ride the ride
Ride the ride, ride the ride

Blowing a smokescreen
Never looking at me in the eye
You make it look easy
For someone afraid of falling to fly

Now you got yourself so wrapped up in it
All you gotta do is wait a minute
All you gotta do is ride the ride
Ride the ride, ride the ride, ride the ride

Take all of the money
Take all you believe is the prize
Just leave me a moment
Just leave a bright piece of the sky

Now you got yourself so wrapped up in it
All you gotta do is wait a minute
All you gotta do is ride the ride
Ride the ride, ride the ride, ride the ride
Ride the ride, ride the ride, ride the ride

Can we try to salvage what we can
From the weight of water and sand
And lifts us up again
Well this world is spinning out of control
I'm bracing just to keep hold
As the clouds move in
With a driving wind so strong
Could it be that we're lost at sea
And we're drowning under the stars
Up to me I would ride this wave
Before we drift too far

What a lonely way to be
Lost at sea
Like a star in a night filled with tears
Make the sadness disappear
'Cause you're all that I hold dear
Well you walk
Never ever looking back
One defends and one attacks
There's a thousand reasons to begin again
Could it be that we're lost at sea
And we're drowning under the stars
Up to me I would ride this wave
Before we drift too far
Take my hand, come to me
Save a life, rescue you, rescue me

Could it be that we're lost at sea
And we're drowning under the stars
Up to me I would ride this wave
Before we drift too far
Could it be that we're lost at sea
And we're drowning under the stars
Up to me I would ride this wave
Before we drift too far

Head in the clouds you never touch the ground
You're in such a hurry
You might lose what you've found
Uptown spinning 'round
Never stop to hear a sound
Stand back and take a look around you
Running from the pressures of a restless world
Hush for a moment, baby, just be still
Here now
Spend a minute next to me
Slow down
Take the time to let it be
I wanna show you
There's no place better than
Here right now

Meet me where icebergs melt in the sun
Let all the ties that bound you come undone
Open up.you're alive
I miss the fire in your eyes
Give a sign, tell me that you want me
When your overwhelming life becomes too much
Take another breath and you will see
Here now
Spend a minute next to me
Slow down
Take the time to let it be
I wanna show you there's no place better than
Here right now
Here right now
Remember when we laughed and carried on
Long before the madness had begun
Here now
Spend a minute next to me
Slow down
Take the time to let it be
I wanna show you
There's no place better than
Here right now
Here right now
Here right now

Everything in a moment starting where
Something you said is hanging in the air
Now I know my life is sweetening
Changing everything
Something that you said
Turned me from the inside out
Running through my head
Something I have dreamed about
And I feel so real
And it feels so right...
Showing you every weakness
And feeling strong for it
I used to run from real love
Now I long for it
Now I know what I've been missing
Since I've been listening
Something that you said
Turned me from the inside out
Lying in my bed
Whispering your name out loud
And I feel so real
And it feels so right
Something that you said
Got through to me tonight
Never so far you can't call me back
I'm never more than a single kiss away

And I feel so real
And it feels so right
Something that you said
Turned me from the inside out
Running through my head
Something I had dreamed about
And I feel so real
And it feels so right
Something that you said
Turned me from the inside out
Lying in my bed
Whispering your name out loud
And I feel so real
And it feels so right

Something that you said
Turned me from the inside out
Running through my head
Something I had dreamed about
And it feels so real
And it feels so right
Something that you said

When the daylight disappears
When you're haunted, I'll be near
When the shadows come to call
When you're too scared to stand tall
I can stand tall
Dream and let your dreams go
It's your turn to fly
Long as I'm standing by
You can close your eyes
I will take care of you
Long as you want me to
Whatever else I do
I will take care of you
Don't you worry, while you sleep
All my love is yours to keep
All you wish for, all you know
Will be yours when you let go
You can let go
Smile, if you can now
Smile through your tears
Here where your fears are known
Know you're safe at home
I will take care of you
Long as you want me to
Whatever else I do
I will take care of you
I will take care of you
Long as you want me to
Whatever else I do
I will take care of you...
