ADDICTION
|
If I could, yes I would
If I could, I would let it go. BAD I know it's tough, and you can never get enough Of what you don't really need now. STUCK IN A MOMENT YOU CAN'T GET OUT OF Carnival, the wheels fly and the colours spin through alcohol Red wine that punctures the skin Face to face in a dry and waterless place. THE UNFORGETTABLE FIRE I tied myself with wire To let the horses run free Playing with the fire Until the fire played with me. MOMENT OF SURRENDER This desperation, dislocation Separation, condemnation Revelation, in temptation Isolation, desolation. BAD Sweet the sin, bitter the taste in my mouth I see seven towers, but I only see one way out You gotta cry without weeping, talk without speaking Scream without raising your voice You know I took the poison, from the poison stream Then I floated out of here. RUNNING TO STAND STILL I've been in every black hole At the altar of the dark star My body's now a begging bowl That's begging to get back, begging to get back To my heart. MOMENT OF SURRENDER In the cold mirror of a glass I see my reflection pass I see the dark shades of what I used to be I see the purple of her eyes The scarlet of my lies Love rescue me. LOVE RESCUE ME Every drunk back on the booze All falling at your feet. FALLING AT YOUR FEET Empty glass, the lady sings Eyes swollen like a bee-sting Blinded, you lost your way In the side streets and the alleyways. ANGEL OF HARLEM Every breaking wave on the shore Tells the next one there’ll be one more And every gambler knows that to lose Is what you’re really there for. EVERY BREAKING WAVE I've conquered my past The future is here at last I stand at the entrance to a new world I can see The ruins to the right of me Will soon have lost sight of me Love, rescue me. LOVE RESCUE ME She is raging She is raging And the storm blows up in her eyes She will suffer the needle chill She's running to stand still. RUNNING TO STAND STILL |
