Substance

This is why events unnerve me,
They find it all, a different story,
Notice whom for wheels are turning,
Turn again and turn towards this time,
All she ask's the strength to hold me,
Then again the same old story,
World will travel, oh so quickly,
Travel first and lean towards this time.

Oh, i'll break them down, no mercy shown,
Heaven knows, it's got to be this time,
Watching her, these things she said,
The times she cried,
Too frail to wake this time.

Oh i'll break them down, no mercy shown
Heaven knows, it's got to be this time,
Avenues all lined with trees,
Picture me and then you start watching,
Watching forever, forever,
Watching love grow, forever,
Letting me know, forever.

Below the surface this day i need it light
Inside dimension lies another sacrifice
Once out of reach, we never speak, we never compromise
As they turned to gold the edges froze and seemed to turn to
Ice
All flight departures assembled not returned
Left in these passions i looked but never learned
There's hope, you've heard there's life in another world
Sometimes you'll find that truth is never kind
In the ghost lies a portrait of space that time is never here
In the mind of a fallen man, an easy day in another land
Ship sails out to sea, away from me, i just stand and stare
Assassin clears his hands, i know that, and, i wasn't even
There
One day it came to mind we even leave the rest behind
Some day, i know, you get where you should go
There's hope, you've heard there's life in another world
Sometimes we'll find that truth is never kind
One day it came to mind we even leave the rest behind
Some day, i know, we even get where we used to go
There's hope, you've heard there's life in another world

Crows, crows, crows, i hate them!
Crawl across!

I wouldn't do that, dave
I'm afraid, dave
My mind is going
There is no question about it

(one, two, three, four)
I am for you can enjoy i can give you
(give me, give me, give me)
It's a time we love to hate, i can give you

I am for you will enjoy i can give you
(give me, give me, give me)
This is the time you'd love to hate, i will take you

I'm quite determined and there will be
No more mistakes, no more talking
I'll bet you hate this

Oh, i am for you will enjoy, i can take you
(give me, give me, give me)
This is the law and you...

I'm quite determined and there will be
No more mistakes like the last one

That's the way - shellshock
Hold on!it's never enough
It's never enough until your heart stops beating
The deeper you get, the sweeter the pain
Don't give up the game until your heart stops beating

You call me on the phone, you left me all alone
All i get from you is shellshock
Another day goes by and all i do is cry
All i get from you is shellshock
I'd tell the world and save my soul
But rain falls down and i feel cold
A cold that sleeps within my heart
It tears the earth and sun apart
But that's the way that i can win
A victim of your evil sin
You've lost the hold you've had on me
By causing the changes that you never see
Hold on! it's never enough
It's never enough until your heart stops beating
The deeper you get, the sweeter the pain
Don't give up the game until your heart stops beating

When we walk through open doorways,
Counting time in one or more ways
We can't find our peace of mind
And life becomes a life of crime
And that's the day i call your name
I came to you, i called in vain
You lost the faith within your heart
The fire in your soul from the end to the start
Hold on!it's never enough
It's never enough until your heart stops beating
The deeper you get, the sweeter the pain
Don't give up the game until your heart stops beating

I've been good and i've been bad
But common sense i've never had
No matter how i try and try,
I hide the truth behind a lie
But that's the way that i can win
A victim of your evil sin
You lost the faith within your heart
The fire in your soul from the end to the start
Hold on!it's never enough
It's never enough until your heart stops beating
The deeper you get, the sweeter the pain
Don't give up the game until your heart stops beating

I stood there beside myself,
Thinking hard about the weather
Then came by a friend of mine
Suggested we go out together
Then i knew it from the start:
This friend of mine would fall apart
Pretending not to see his gun,
I said "let's go out and have some fun"
I know, you know, you believe in a land of love
I know, you know, we believe in a land of love

I have always thought about
Staying here and going out
Tonight i should have stayed at home,
Playing with my pleasure zone
He has always been so strange,
I'd often thought he was deranged
Pretending not to see his gun,
I said "let's go out and have some fun"
I know, you know, we believe in a land of love
I know, you know, we believe in a land of love

When you are alone at night
You search yourself for all the things
That you believe are right
If you give it all away
You throw away your only chance to be here today
Then a fight breaks out on your street
You lose another broken heart in a land of meat
My friend, he took his final breath
Now i know the perfect kiss is the kiss of death

How does it feel
To treat me like you do
When you've laid your hands upon me
And told me who you are

I thought i was mistaken
I thought i heard your words
Tell me how do i feel
Tell me now how do i feel

Those who came before me
Lived through their vocations
From the past until completion
They will turn away no more

And i still find it so hard
To say what i need to say
But i'm quite sure that you'll tell me
Just how i should feel today

I see a ship in the harbor
I can and shall obey
But if it wasn't for your misfortunes
I'd be a heavenly person today

And i thought i was mistaken
And i thought i heard you speak
Tell me how do i feel
Tell me now how should i feel

Now i stand here waiting

I thought i told you to leave me
While i walked down to the beach
Tell me how does it feel
When your heart grows cold
(grows cold, grows cold, grows cold)

I've watched your face for a long time
It's always the same
I've studied the cracks and the wrinkles
You were always so vain
Well, now you live your life like a shadow
In the pouring rain
Oh, it's called love
Yes, it's called love
Oh, it's called love
And it belongs to us
Oh, it dies so quickly
It grows so slowly
But when it dies, it dies for good
It's called love
And it belongs to everyone but us

I've lived my life in the valleys
I've lived my life on the hills
I've lived my life on alcohol
I've lived my life on pills
But it's called love
And it belongs to us
It's called love
And it's the only thing that's worth living for
It's called love
And it belongs to us
It's called love
Yes it's called love

Oh, love is found in the east and west
But when love is at home, it's the best
Love is the cure for every evil
Love is the air that supports the eagle
It's called love
And it's so un-cool
It's called love
And somehow it's become unmentionable
It's called love
And it belongs to every one of us
It's called love
And it cuts your life like a broken knife

Caressing the marble and stone
Love that was special for one
The waste and the fever and hate
How i wish you were here with me now

The body that kills and hides
Matches an awful delight
Warm like a dog `round your feet
How i wish you were here with me now

The hangman looks `round as he waits
Gullet stretches tight and it breaks
Someday we will die in your dreams
How i wish we were here with you now

You can walk, or you can run
You don't have to be someone
I went on a summer cruise
Upon an ocean born to lose
My brother said that he was dead
I saw his face and shook my head
Can you see where we can't be
We're losing our blood in the sea
'cause it's the state of the nation
That's holding our salvation
Yes, it's the state of the nation
That's holding our salvation
Oh, the state of the nation
Is causing deprivation
Oh, the state of the nation
Is causing deprivation

From my home i traveled far
I drove in my stolen car
When it broke down, i kissed the ground
'cause i don't kiss when you're around
I don't find that i have been
The portrait of an only son
If that's the case, then who could tell
Where my story had begun?
Cause it's the state of the nation
That's holding our salvation
Yes, it's the state of the nation
That's holding our salvation
Yes, the state of the nation
That's causing deprivation
Oh, the state of the nation
That's causing deprivation

Even now, i'm all alone
Behind a wall that's made of stone
I think about where we have been
And all the sights that could be seen
I know it all could be worthwhile
If only i could force a smile
Now we turn our backs to the sea
The shame of a nation we'll never be
Cause it's the state of the nation
That's holding our salvation
Yes, it's the state of the nation
That's holding our salvation
Oh, the state of the nation
Is causing deprivation
Yes, the state of the nation
Is causing deprivation

Help me, somebody help me
I wonder where i am
I see my future before me
I'll hurt you when i can
It seems like i've been here before

Confusion sprung up from devotion
A halo that covers my eyes
It sprung from this first estrangement
No one have i ever despised
Is this the way that you wanted to pay
Won't you show me, please show me the way
Is this the way that you wanted to pay
Won't you show me, please show me the way
