TEARS

 

LOVE IS A LONELY WORD
WHY IS IT SO HARD FOR US TO GIVE?
SUCCESS IS A BROADENED TERM
TO SOME IT SEEMS IT NEVER REALLY LIVES
NO USE IN JUSTIFYING
DON’T SHIFT THE BLAME
WHEN IT COMES TO CRYING
WE ALL FEEL THE SAME

THERE IS A PLACE SO REAL
BUT I WISH IT COULD BE JUST A DREAM
WHY CAN’T WE LIVE IN PEACE?
I KNOW THAT THINGS AIN’T WHAT THEY SEEM
NO USE IN GOING CRAZY
THERE’S ONLY ONE ESCAPE
WHEN YOUR WORLD GOES HAZY
WILL YOU STAND AND GAPE?

YOU KNOW IT’S JUST A BIG FACADE
THE CANDLE BURNS THE HEART GETS HARD
AND WHEN YOUR DROWNING IN YOUR TEARS
YOU SCREAM AND SHOUT BUT NO ONE HEARS

LIFE IS LIKE A PRECIOUS PEARL
YET IT’S ONE WE OFTEN OVERLOOK
DEATH IS A BROADENED TERM
I WONDER WHY THE FISH TAKES THE HOOK
NO USE IN BEING LONELY
I KNOW YOU FEEL THE SAME
YOU’LL BE MY ONE AND ONLY
I’M SO GLAD YOU CAME

THE GAMES WE PLAY ARE ALL FOR REAL
YOU GET AWAY WITH ALL YOU STEAL
THE TIME SEEMS RIGHT TO CATCH THE HARE
BUT YOUR THE ONE CAUGHT IN THE SNARE
