Dark Days
Another day another tear another long lost lonely year Another reason, another rhyme, another chance to get it right this time Ask me anything you need You know that I'll always be I'll always be not guilty So what are you searching for I'm not guilty No I didn't break the law Another side to another rule another hung up lonely fool No jurisdiction nobody else give the power to lose yourself Ask me anything you need You know that I'll always be I'll always be not guilty So what are you searching for I'm not guilty No I didn't break the law And I didn't throw anything away I din't ask you to go but I didn't want to stay

Once in every lifetime a heart is lost Then you need to find time to count the cost I know you may be thinking there's nothing more For every broken key there's a broken door Nine months, nine months nine months Nine months of gilded purgatory a lifetime of insanity Nine months, nine months nine months Nine months of questions locked away A solitary sentence takes nine months Trying to find a way to face it all Turns open windows into prison walls And though you may be thinking you've seen the light Your empty heart is sinking into the night Nine months, nine months nine months Nine months of gilded purgatory a lifetime of insanity Nine months, nine months nine months Nine months of questions locked away A solitary sentence takes nine months Suddenly heading homeward, you realise Your broken spirit keeps your head held high And though you may be thinking it's over now Your own belief can stop you from going down Nine months, nine months nine months Nine months of gilded purgatory a lifetime of insanity Nine months, nine months nine months Nine months of questions locked away A solitary sentence takes nine months

It's complicated and over-rated It occupies you and still inside you It's liberating, and it's aggravating Feels violating, then isolating, frustrating everything you do Are you listening? Hear the voice that's calling you home It's a freedom of choice when all hope is gone Hear the voice wherever you go Can't sleep, can't breathe it's hot in here Gonna pack my bags, and get out of here cos it's isolating, so frustrating everything I do Are you listening? Hear the voice that's calling you home It's a freedom of choice when all hope is gone Hear the voice wherever you go

Stepping out on a long dusty road I had the highway to myself I felt the weight of a troublesome load Then I stumbled and fell I was ruined and a storm was brewing And I didn't know why I lost my mind The light is shining but my eyes they must be blind I lost my mind Come to the show and watch my sanity unwind I lost my mind Holding on for the pressure to blow Taking strength from the fear Running out of the last place to go That's what's leading me here I started running, head down I wasn't looking And I didn't know what I lost my mind The light is shining but my eyes they must be blind I lost my mind Come to the show and watch my sanity unwind I lost my mind If you can't see the light maybe you're not a doing it right If you're life is a bitch, you hold the switch I lost my mind The light is shining but my eyes they must be blind I lost my mind Come to the show and watch my sanity unwind I lost my mind

Maybe lately I've had my head in the clouds These changing situations has got me to thinking that something is bringing me down So much confusion What have we done River rumble, towers tumble Looks like trouble and dark days Bells ringing, we're living in dark days indeed Thunder and hunger - they may be us forever blind Lightning forever Lights up the sky but it's making us forever blind So much confusion What have we done Dark days! We're living in dark days

I recall the night I found you lying on the floor A box of pills beside your head and a note under the door You're good at what you're doing, but what you do ain't good Your hair's a mess you've torn your dress, the scourge of the neighbourhood Close my eyes ... See the future in black and white No more lies ... Life is easy with second sight. Yesterday I saw you drinking whisky at the bar Then you took a walk across the street to the back seat of his car You're good at what you're doing, but what you do ain't good You paid the price for selling vice now you don't look so good. Close my eyes ... See the future in black and white No more lies ... Life is easy with second sight. Standing on the corner with your suitcase in your hand Has helped to make you what you are helped you understand You're good at what you're doing, but what you do ain't good You've turned around now you have found money can't buy you love. Close my eyes ... See the future in black and white No more lies ... Life is easy with second sight.

Tormented lady in waiting So many years you stood alone in hope the day would come Locked inside a tower of stone hidden from the sun From the dark under cover of night Coming from nowhere back into the light Tormented lady in waiting You're the secret never told, the shadow on the wall You're the elusive pot of gold, the pride before the fall Out of the dark under cover of night Coming from nowhere back in to the light Twisting and turning your head in a spin Over and over and over again So many years you've be standing alone Hoping and praying that your day will come You are the shadow that's cast on the wall You are the pride and then you are fall Tormented lady in waiting Watching and anticipating Tormented lady I'm waiting

I put myself before you fall to my knees I worship and adore you do as you please May your will be done, I'm the one who needs You're the only thing I will ever see Thunder and lightening took me across the sky Something inside you shook me I don't know why Now here you are, look into my eyes There'll never be any tears to cry You are my fallen angel from way up high I'll do my best to fix the Devil in your eyes You are my fall and now it's clear We'll see the best of both worlds now that you're here My frozen heart was broken and lost in time So many words unspoken I don't know why Now here you are waiting to be free You're the only thing I will ever see You are my fallen angel from way up high I'll do my best to fix the Devil in your eyes You are my fall and now it's clear We'll see the best of both worlds now that you're here You are my fallen angel Sent from above And I know there's no danger This must be love

It was four in the morning, I took a walk on the sand I was stretching and yawing when I opened my eyes, perspiration in my hands All along it was never something we don't know And if I was wrong I guess I should have told you so When there's guitars ringing, the crowd's singing On stage and covered in glory Drums pounding, it's sounding Like we've found another toy story Talking never comes easy when you've got nothing to say There's a hole in your head and a there's a space in your bed, there's got to be another way All along it was never something we don't know And if I was wrong I guess I should have told you so When there's guitars ringing, the crowd's singing On stage and covered in glory Drums pounding, it's sounding Like we've found another toy story There's a hole in your head and a there's a space in your bed, there's got to be another way Now the circus is over and all the lights have gone out Let the flying trapeze with the greatest of ease take it all into another town All along it was never something we don't know And if I was wrong I guess I should have told you so

Now ... take a look around and a look inside Wait ... is everything you have tried Lies ... breaking down the walls that you would not climb Fire ... burning up inside Never give up until the battle is won Await the return of the prodigal son Weight ... dragging you down into a perilous place Lines ... spreading across my face Time ... running away so that you never look back. Love ... some kind of heart attack Never give up until the battle is won Await the return of the prodigal son Now ... this the man I always wanted to be How ... did I ever fall so deep? Hope ... is springing eternally all over again No ... no reason for this to end Now my time has come Never give up until the battle is won I'm the only one Await the return of the prodigal son

Foot down hard to the floor, another town another place to explore Lights on but heads down, no turning back no hanging around Sometimes it feels like its game But in the end it's all the same And I know Feels like living in a tank Tank oo oooh Get out of my way We're living in a tank Tank oo oooh And you've got nothing to say A heavy load a dusty road Know where I'm going and I know where I've been A smoking gun, the fight is on, We're stuck inside this heavy metal machine Sometimes it feels like its game But in the end it's all the same And I know Feels like living in a tank
