Cold Again
A barefoot whore
Walking by a famous clock
Against her door
Waiting for the chimes to start
Chorus:
Can't sink this town
Pull the gates and bring it down
I'd gladly drown and let you leave me lonely
She pulled the cork
On a night like this she never works
I said, "No more."
Do I think I'm understood with her?
Chorus
Can't sink this town
Looking back across the sea
I'd gladly drown
I thought you said you were lonely
Tell you what
Is a broken promise cheap enough
It's all I got,
Look so sad, talk so tough
Chorus:
Can't sink this town
Looking back across the sea
I'd gladly drown
I thought you said you were lonely
I thought you said you were lonely
I thought you said you were lonely
Won't Come Out To Play
Waiting in the wings
Your courage sings before you falter . . .
It's just another way to say
what's there but never shows
It's just another day to lay
your sins before the altar
And where it's going to end
this time around nobody knows.
Every time it seems that you
have gained an understanding
Those devils at your heels
reach up and try to tip the scales
Waking from a dream
you see it's all been done without you
And every vain attempt to make it stay
Is destined to fail.
CHORUS
Fury rages through your restless days
Shade
Your courage sings before you falter . . .
It's just another way to say
what's there but never shows
It's just another day to lay
your sins before the altar
And where it's going to end
this time around nobody knows.
Every time it seems that you
have gained an understanding
Those devils at your heels
reach up and try to tip the scales
Waking from a dream
you see it's all been done without you
And every vain attempt to make it stay
Is destined to fail.
CHORUS
Fury rages through your restless days
Shade
