Misconceptions

We're born to the bounds of our own misconceptions,
we're wandering around but it's all just impressions,
and you think it's your style but it's just an old fashion,
there's nothing more frightening than stupidity in action.
Your love wouldn't die if it wouldn't be sacred,
you're wearing a coat but your cold heart is naked,
and you're starting to love just what you once hated,
you're passing the time that is already wasted.
I know what you think you are, I know better,
but it all comes down in a word in a letter,
I ask you "how come?" and you ask "what's the matter?"
you're locking yourself deep inside your shelter.
Everyone knows that no one cares,
a thousand miles of desperation won't get you anywhere,
I've got nothing but respect for you, and not much of that,
when your boat is a' sinking you're bound to react…

"I think our, all of our society is run by insane people for insane objects, objectives and…"
Well I've got a woman,
well I've got a woman,
well I've got a woman and she…
Well she…
Well she...
She…

Well you say I've done you wrong and it's been this way too long,
and you say you won't come 'round here anymore,
but when I came to you, you locked the door.
There's a woman that I'm loving now
(a woman that I'm loving now)
There's a woman that I'm loving now
(a woman that I'm loving now)
Well you say that you and me, we're not as close as we should be,
and you say that it's too much for you to take,
and our love is either dead or it is fake.
There's a woman that I'm loving now
(a woman that I'm loving now)
There's a woman that I'm loving now
(a woman that I'm loving now)
and she loves me…. oh yeah
I don't need you anymore,
this girl that I've got is like no one I've had before.
Well you say that all I've done was just meant to bring you down
but you know that it just isn't quite like that,
you're the one who got you where you're at.
There's a woman that I'm loving now
(a woman that I'm loving now)
There's a woman that I'm loving now
(a woman that I'm loving now)
Well you say it once again, that he takes away your pain
but I guess we will just have to wait and see,
you used to say the same thing about me.
There's a woman that I'm loving now
(a woman that I'm loving now)
There's a woman that I'm loving now
(a woman that I'm loving now)
and she loves me… oh yeah
I don’t need you anymore,
this girl that I've got is like no one I've had before,
and all the things you do,
at the end they'll be coming after you…
allright…

You buried your hopes deep under the sands of time,
day after day your life becomes a crime.
The bells of heaven rang as you lied,
the demons of hell they laughed as you cried, as you cried…
Growing mad by the light of the moon,
you find that it isn't too soon, say it clear, speak it softly,
when you find there's no one there,
so you leave it all behind you and you go,
it's just the state of mind that makes it show,
and on and on the bell is ringing, your mind is growing old.
You bought a new picture for the wall,
but the shadows keep on hanging in your hall,
they creep further with the dying of the sun,
and come to you to remind you that you're just another one…
Growing mad by the light of the moon,
you find that it isn't too soon, say it clear, speak it softly,
when you find there's no one to care,
so you leave it all behind you and you go,
it's just the state of mind that makes it show,
and on and on the bell is ringing, your mind is growing old.

Life Isn't A Fair Game
04:54
|

The losers lose, the winners win,
the good men pay for the bad man's sin,
outsiders will never fit in, no…
life isn't a fair game.
The weak get sick, the strong get stronger,
if you're wrong you're wrong, and if you're right you're wronger.
a poor man's life gets shorter
politicians all the same…
Don't you know it all by now?
I'm sure you'll make it out somehow…
life isn't a fair game,
life isn't a fair game,
life isn't a fair game.
Well I'm feeling kind of half-sick,
think I'll take the day off.
And I blame this bloody politic,
for putting me off, yeah he's putting me off.
Well it's a hard world that we live in,
and there's nothing true that you can believe in,
build your dreams out of scrap tin,
though keep your dreams tame.
Know the price of everything, the value of nothing,
young children at your garden laughing,
smoking teens in the alley coughing,
senile grandparents can't remember your name,
can't remember your name…
Don't we all know it by now?
I'm sure we'll make it out somehow…
life isn't a fair game,
life isn't a fair game,
life isn't a fair game.
Well I went to see the doctor,
he said "it's great that you have come",
"the disease you have is expensive, but I'll see what can be done…"
yes he'll see what can be done…
And capital junkies down on mainstreet, they're still chasing the sun,
yeah they're chasing the golden sun…
Well it's a hard life I've been told,
a hard life that can be undone,
it's a hard life that can undone.
So I filled the bath with holly water,
and I stuck the knife right in my vain,
at the beginning,
it felt kind of the same,
but then it got, so
cold…

One More Time
03:59
|

Yes you wanna believe her,
but she's a great misconceiver,
and she will lie to your face,
such a total disgrace,
and she'll say you’re the liar,
and she wants to get higher,
and she'll say grey snows cheaper,
though the white snow is deeper,
and you wanna believe her,
yes you wanna believe her.
She said here is something,
to blow your mind, and it blew mine.
She knows, you want only,
just to try, it one more time,
once again…
Next she goes through a hard time,
so she spends every last dime,
buying water and shelter,
and some powder to help her,
but she says she can change it,
and one day she will make it,
but all the money means nothing,
when you're searching for something,
that’s not even there,
it's not even there.
She takes it all in one go,
and she falls back on the floor,
she knows, she wants only,
just to try, it one more time,
once again…

Something For The Pain
05:29
|
|||
Please, don't let me go
I'm falling faster than you'll ever know
and all the people seem to come and go,
and don't let it show
this hole is wider and it's getting cold
and all the people here are growing old
but it's alright.
Hey, here's something for your pain
you don’t have to explain it to me, I understand.
Go, before it starts to rain
it will never be the same without you
Oh no no…
Please, let it be told
that sometimes laughter is worth more than gold
and all the time we had has now been sold
we're walking, through the sand
one more mile and we'll reach desperation's hand
though even now, we barely stand
so we mold.
Hey, here's something for your pain
you don’t have to explain it to me, I understand.
Go, before it starts to rain
it will never be the same without you
Oh no no...
Don't, look at the past
you will realize just how time moves fast
though we all want it just to last
yeah we all want it just to last
A little more…
Hey, here's something for your pain
you don’t have to explain it to me, I understand.
Go, before it starts to rain
it will never be the same without you
by my side...

Seven Steps From Hell
05:27
|
|||
Last night you picked me up,
right out of my sleep,
walked through the hallway thinking of,
that strange dream.
I was thinking where will we go,
where will we hide?
seven steps from hell and heaven's,
far behind.
Hell is filled with sinners, babe
just like you and me,
and heaven is empty as far as,
I can see.
no point in trying to fix it,
it's just what it is…
heaven is a lonely place…

You choose to forget and yet you find yourself
inside the doors of perception.
You choose to forget and yet you find yourself
locked inside the doors…
A great way to waste time…
I found out my way in days where I couldn’t get no
real satisfaction.
You choose to rely on something that died on
something that’s gone…
A great way to waste time…
Building a house in the woods to keep away from the bullies
who ask "what's the matter?"…

Kind
07:26
|

Hey, I wanna know,
what's in your mind,
what's in your soul,
that makes you so kind?
Hey, what's in your eyes,
what's in your eyes,
that makes you…
that makes you so kind?
Is it the sun, high in the sky?
Is it the smile on the face that you love?
Is it all the friendly faces outside
though you know they're all in your mind?
They're all in your mind,
they're all in your mind, yeah they are, and,
who really has to care of all the faces that stare into
the vacuum outside?
Hey, what's in your heart?
what's in your heart?
that makes you…
that makes you so kind?
Is it the life, passing with violent speed,
through the eyes of the one that you love?
is it all the same sweet memories though
you know they're all in your mind?
They're all in your mind,
they're all in your mind, yeah they are, and,
who really has to care of all the faces that stare into
the vacuum outside?
