Sing It, Baby
Tired of trying to verbalize everything e. Singing it all away na lang.
And this is why This is why Why we fight Come hell Bride of quiet Bride of all unquiet things Bride of quiet Bride of hell
I never saw the point in trying Cause I would only let you down And I just couldn't take you down there with me I just can't stand to see you drown I never saw the point in crying Cause I can't be the way you want And I don't want lay around here waiting Waiting for you to change your mind
Well I reached in the cupboard for something to feed you and I hoped that these words were enough to keep you but the moon is so high and the stars are so bright you could be the one that I needed
When the sun came you hit the trail like an old cowboy bent for the wild road and so I carved your name into all the tree legs and we waited for you until dark came
I once knew a man who told a tale as tall as the mountains that he came from and he said there's a place where all the folks wait when death strips their faces of color Are you there?
Pearl: I walk down the road and I’m alone again, but
I will sing a song as I go I walk down the road and I’m alone again, but You will be the voice in my throat
Beard: All these years I’ve travelled down the lonely pathway Singing something you’ll never know All these years I’ve travelled down the lonely pathway You have been the voice in my throat
And in the future Our love will surely fade away Or so they tell me But we know better don't we So I keep singing my song Won't you sing along?
So tell me truth don’t tell me lies I’ve seen the truth inside your eyes Life is so short, everyone dies So live a beautiful lie
And when it all comes crashing down, what can you do,
to find what you're looking for? And then the words will come to you,
driving through the rain.
But there'll be no one there to say them to anyway.
