The sky doesn't know whether to rain or shine
Doesn't know whether to laugh or cry
We stand in the middle looking both ways
We don't know whether we live or we die, caught between two fires
And while the fires burn brightly both sides of the sea
The man in the middle says that he's been had
Yet they sing "We're safe We're safe" to a sweet melody
And here we are in a world gone bad - caught bet...
EVERYTHING MUST CHANGE
I was never one to back out of an argument and say I was wrong,
even when I'd seen the other side I'd hide my foolishness and carry on.
But still I'd be embarrassed 'cos they'd see what happened and they's play along
until I back myself into a corner I would only realise when they had gone.
And like a dream, a life, a reason,
everything must change.EVERYTHING EVERYTHING ...
I'M GONNA TEAR YOUR PLAYHOUSE DOWN
You think you've got it all set up,
you think you've got the perfect plan
to charm everyone you see
and playing any game you can.
But I've got news for you,
I hope it don't hit you too hard.
One of these days while y
ou're at play
I'm gonna catch you off guard.
I'm gonna tear your playhouse down pretty soon.
I'm gonna tear your playhouse down room by room.
Yo...
I see the finish before me; I feel the hurt of the
lonely; If you believe in me, know that your will is
keeping me strong, though as my heart is beating
faster the pain won't ever last and I'll feel myself
reaching the end when I hold you again; carry me.
In the long run, fate will turn the key to tomorrow.
Oh, the memory holds me, of the love that you sold
me. Sold for a heart that is battere...
LOVE OF THE COMMON PEOPLE
Living on free food tickets,
water in the milk from a hole in the roof
where the rain came through.
What can you do?
Tears from your little sister,
crying 'cause she doesn't have a dress without a patch
for the party to go.
But you know she'll get by 'cause she's living in the love of the common people,
smile's from the heart of a family man.
Daddy's gonna buy you a d...
You want me to be the silent one
But I can't run from what I know
When it makes me mad, so mad, I've got to let it go
It's better it's said than left undone
Out in the sun we'll see it clear
And if I'm alone, alone I'm chained to this idea
Prisoner of conscience, but the
Captain of my soul
Prisoner of conscience, but the
Captain of my soul
I said that I'd found my matching heart
And that's a s...
Some people, they know how to play the game of love
Some people, know just who to pray to up above
I know where I'm going, I'm taking it straight to the top
I know where I'm going, I don't see a reason to stop
You took my hand, put me back where I started
Showed me the way, showed me the way
You took my hand, put me back where I started
Some people seem to get the best of life really easy
Some...
How many homes must you break to feel good
How many men does it take to burn wood
You just call and say they're needed
Face the jury, guilty pleaded
Wargames, and I want nothing to do with wargames
I want nothing to do with wargames
You say you're working so hard for peace talks
You say that in my back yard a little rain falls
I go backward, you go forward
I'm not listening to your war words
W...
WHEREVER I LAY MY HAT THAT'S MY HOME
By the look in your eye I can tell you're gonna cry.
Is it over me?
If it is, save your tears
for I'm not worth it, you see.
For I'm the type of boy who is always on the roam,
wherever I lay my hat that's my home,
I'm telling you that's my home.
You had romance, did you break it by chance
over me?
If it's so I'd like for you to know
that I'm not worth it, y...
