I
was scared but I couldn't admit it
Hatred planted out of fear
Fire to fly, no choice but to hit it
The road it calls on me, my dear
I was lost as lost can be
Being praised for being found
But all that praise got lost on me
As the moon swings, headed down
Apart from me
I would not dare take someone in love with me
Where I'm going
Hard
you'll see
How true it is and how back then it possibly
Was impossible for you or me to know it
Your touch was nothing more
Than a child's goodbye and hello
But it always left me feeling
Worse when it was time to go
Apart from me
I would not dare take someone in love with me
Where I'm going
Hard you'll see
How true it is and how back then it possibly
Was impossible for you or me to know it
When most of us out there got fooled
As the gold had glittered in the night
And we chased it fast like drunk buffoons The banker lived,
the artist died
And all our clothes were washed in grey
All our buildings and our cars
And the fluorescent lights of day
Bleached the sky, took the stars
Apart from me
I would not dare take someone in love with me
Where I'm going
Apart you'll see
How true it is and how back then it possibly
Was impossible for you or me to know it
