Devil in the Details
Oh, they're chasing fireflies Through the midnight skies Dancing so mysteriously In shadows still they rise Moonlight in a silver lane Stalk into the night Like the sweetest memory A magic carpet ride Like a warm embrace you miss it when it's gone Just a moment's peace before it passes on Show me the light I want to see! Tell me the words I want to hear I need to know the miracles of life Show me the light I want to see! Tell me the words I want to hear I need to feel I've lived before I die No one's given certainty Everyone must play We all hope for victory No matter what we say Remember when you fail, mistakes will make you strong You're a part of all and life means you no wrong Show me the light I want to see! Tell me the words I want to hear I need to know the miracles of life Show me the light I want to see! Tell me the words I want to hear I need to feel I've lived before I die I've lived before I die Show me the light I want to see! Tell me the words I want to hear I need to know the miracles of life I've lived before I die Show me the light I want to see! Tell me the words I want to hear I need to feel I've lived before I die I've lived before I die I've lived before I die I've lived before I die

Through my telescope, I can analyze What I don't understand, I judge and criticize From my hiding place in the loneliness I fear I'll lose control of my tainted soul Living in a time that is so hard to understand Watching everybody stake and claim the Promised Land Say they know the way or what you can depend upon I realize we've gone too far, too far, too far, too far If I were born another man and personality Maybe in distant and far off galaxy Somewhere in the universe there is a place for me I'm telling you, I'm telling you We're living in a house of cards It's not ignorance, I have really tried To see every side and put away my pride From my solitude in the dark and cold Now my Shangri-La seems unreachable Living in a time that is so hard to understand Watching everybody stake and claim the Promised Land Say they know the way or what you can depend upon I realize we've gone too far, too far, too far, too far If I were born another man and personality Maybe in distant and far off galaxy Somewhere in the universe there is a place for me I'm telling you, I'm telling you We're living in a house of cards I cannot deny or be a stranger to myself I'm looking in the mirror and blaming no one else This house of cards is falling as I turn and walk away I realize we've gone too far What I thought was nothing might be something after all All the hidden meanings beyond what I control I'm telling you, I'm telling you We're living in a house of cards

This will be the moment when we all stand up and try When the standing ovations ring out and people cry When they spot that light On a lonely stage And the world is watching you, my friend We will stand and raise our voices We will sing Until the end This is the real thing, tonight is the greatest Stand up and sing it, I know you can feel it If you just take my hand and look in my eyes Tonight this will be the ride of your life Oh oh, oh yeah, tonight is the greatest You travel so far and wide Along that dusty road at night Looking for the stars that shine, that shine, that shine Uhh, yeah So many dreamers here tonight So many words so little time So spread your wings and you will fly You'll fly, you'll fly, you'll fly! This is the real thing, tonight is the greatest Stand up and sing it, I know you can feel it If you just take my hand and look in my eyes Tonight this will be the ride of your life Oh oh, oh yeah, tonight is the greatest Ooh ooh ooh ooh, ooh ooh ooh ooh, ooh ooh ooh ooh, ooh ooh ooh And when the curtain falls and the night is done And the silence rolls like thunder From a distant call I hear my people call I will be right there to answer! This is the real thing, tonight is the greatest Stand up and sing it, I know you can feel it If you just take my hand and look in my eyes Tonight this will be the ride of your life Oh oh, oh yeah, tonight is the greatest Oh ooooh, tonight is the greatest

The sky is burning, and what is done can't be undone I move away from this armageddon path we're on New destination means something has gotta give Mindless consumption; the lifestyle made us all addictive There's a crack in the wall, risking it all I need more than words to hang on to Now it's a choice we've got Despair or not, but face the enemy! There's crack in the wall, risking it all What more do we need to see the truth It's easy to complicate, intoxicate our destiny to face our enemy Oceans depleted, you find pollution every where Now we all know it, but tell me do we really care Rainforest cut down, no secret what is going on temperature rises, it's time to cross the rubicon There's a crack in the wall, risking it all I need more than words to hang on to Now it's a choice we've got Despair or not, but face the enemy! There's crack in the wall, risking it all What more do we need to see the truth It's easy to complicate, intoxicate our destiny to face our enemy There's a crack in the wall, risking it all I need more than words to hang on to Now it's a choice we've got Despair or not, but face the enemy! There's crack in the wall, risking it all What more do we need to see the truth It's easy to complicate, intoxicate our destiny to face our enemy

What the hell, Baby! What is going on? Tell me where I went wrong 'Cause I'm really trying Baby! To get the picture right I ain't here to start a fight Just want to get this straight She said long branch Penny was her middle name From that one day nothing was the same She's gone away and now I cannot breathe Still what I find is a horrible relief I've been a ramblin' and a gamblin' man Now all my treasures hidden in the sand I feel it slippin' out of my hands What the hell, Baby! What is going on? Tell me where I went wrong 'Cause I'm really trying Baby! To get the picture right I ain't here to start a fight Just want to get this straight I tip, tip dancing on a land mine Still you tell me that I'm doing fine And this arrangement is the killing kind A guarantee to make me lose my mind Tell me should I stay or go? What d'you think is so hard to know I was blinded by the light When she came within my sight I was blinded by the light What the hell, Baby! What is going on? Tell me where I went wrong 'Cause I'm really trying Baby! Baby! To get the picture right I ain't here to start a fight Just want to get this straight now

Brother, Oh I see you where you stand Your head is hanging low And you try to understand Sister, so sweet was the caress Now the party is over And your life is in a mess Oh, I need you won't you Take me on again Can't you see I'm asking Let me be your friend So many times you say your will Is your command Now everything has turned out Different that you planned Oh, you're no fool, so keep your cool... Too much of everything Here nothing seems to last Just give me anything We're in a meltdown blast Pain is so close to pleasure we feel Still true love is all that you ever need Now you're crying In a lonely room you pray You're dreaming of tomorrow And sacrifice today Waiting for a miracle to show A whisper in the dark night That says, you thoughts to now All you reach for will never satisfy Thought I know the reason It makes me wonder why The grass is always greener On the other side Did you stop to wonder Of the heartaches in your life? Oh, you're no fool, so keep your cool...

Take of your shades, face me You got to stop now I'm begging you I can't take more and I'm on my knees You got to stop 'Cause my time is running out Tick tock, tick tock You got to stop now I'm begging you You know I'm half the man I used to be I got to stop 'Cause my time is running out The moon comes up, the sun goes down Still I'm walking down your street I'm left here like a dog without a bone So tell me now, why we need this masquerade Take of your shades, face me You got to stop now I'm begging you I can't take more and I'm on my knees You got to stop 'Cause my time is running out Tick tock, tick tock You got to stop now I'm begging you You know I'm half the man I used to be I got to stop 'Cause my time is running out Tick tock, tick tock, tick tock You got to stop now I'm begging you Tick tock, Tick tock You got to stop now I'm begging you I can't take more and I'm on my knees You got to stop 'Cause my time is running out Tick tock, tick tock, tick tock, tick tock

You know, we all fall down We will lose our crown And the life we gained Is given back again But tonight we are Burning bright as stars And what we leave behind Will last the end of time Somewhere, I hope I'll find it someway I need to believe That we can be free And follow the road That will take us home I wish you could see The fire in me And look to the sky To get through the night I need to believe I need to believe You know there was a time I thought I lost my mind And the choices I made took me further away But then there came a day I hadn't lost my way And now the path was clear and I was free from fear Somewhere, I hope I'll find it someway I need to believe That we can be free And follow the road That will take us home I wish you could see The fire in me And look to the sky To get through the night I need to believe I need to believe I need to believe That we can be free And follow the road That will take us home I wish you could see The fire in me And look to the sky To get through the night I need to believe That we can be free And follow the road That will take us home I need to believe, to believe

I'm alive! Breathing, it's wonderful I'm alive, alive! A feeling unstoppable This is my way to magnify The inconceivable gift of life I'm alive! I'm alive! I'm burning, burning, burning! Some days the news just bring me down I don't say I'm always strong But I'll rise and pick the pieces up again Go on, move on, up until the very end The very end I'm alive! I'm alive! Breathing, it's wonderful I'm alive, alive! A feeling unstoppable This is my way to magnify The inconceivable gift of life I'm alive! So alive! I'm burning, burning, burning! I'm alive! I'm alive!

Silence echoes, burning memories Feel the walls closing in Counting seconds, Sweating bullets Blood boils under my skin Suddenly I'm wide awake Can't you hear how this heart aches Come back again baby before it breaks All I know is the wheels keep turning They will carry me far away and tomorrow we'll be left with nothing but memories All I know is the wheels keep turning I can't go back to yesterday 'Cause I can't imagine life without you without you, yeah Complication, missing pieces in the puzzle of life You're in every breath I take Can't you hear how this heart aches Come back again baby before it breaks All I know is the wheels keep turning They will carry me far away and tomorrow we'll be left with nothing but memories All I know is the wheels keep turning I can't go back to yesterday 'Cause I can't imagine life without you without you All I know is the wheels keep turning They will carry me far away and tomorrow we'll be left with nothing but memories All I know is the wheels keep turning I can't go back to yesterday 'Cause I can't imagine life without you without you, yeah my life without you

A mother took her last breath without losing her pride With a smiling face she said, lying on her bed "Precious one, now you must go, the wolfs are everywhere This land is full of fear, and there's no future here" I walk the borderline I'm fighting to survive For reasons I can't see The doors are closed on me I walk the borderline Running on adrenaline Someone explain to me Why I'm the enemy If you would be color blind Would I still walk the borderline In another time and circumstance, would we still be here? Standing on the brim, swearing free from sin The fragment that is left of me, is that all that you can see All bridges they have burned, the point of no return I walk the borderline I'm fighting to survive For reasons I can't see The doors are closed on me I walk the borderline Running on adrenaline Someone explain to me Why I'm the enemy If you would be color blind Would I still walk the borderline I walk the borderline I'm fighting to survive For reasons I can't see The doors are closed on me I walk the borderline Running on adrenaline Someone explain to me Why I'm the enemy If you would be color blind Would I still walk the borderline Jakob Samuel â VocalsHenrik Bergqvist â GuitarsChristian "Kicken" Lundqvist â DrumsJohan Flodqvist â Bass Submits, comments, corrections are welcomed at webmaster@darklyrics.com THE POODLES LYRICS
