When it all went down
|
And the pain came through
|
I get it now
|
I was there for you
|
Don't ask me how
|
I know it's true
|
I get it now
|
I was there for you
|
I make my plans
|
Like I always do
|
But when I look back
|
I was there for you
|
I walk the streets
|
Like I used to do
|
And I freeze with fear
|
But I'm there for you
|
I see my life
|
In full review
|
It was never me
|
It was always you
|
You sent me here
|
You sent me there
|
Breaking things
|
I can't repair
|
Making objects
|
Out of thoughts
|
Making more
|
By thinking not
|
Eating food
|
And drinking wine
|
A body that
|
I thought was mine
|
Dressed as Arab
|
Dressed as Jew
|
O mask of iron
|
I was there for you
|
Moods of glory
|
Moods so foul
|
The world comes through
|
A bloody towel
|
And death is old
|
But it's always new
|
I freeze with fear
|
And I'm there for you
|
I see it clear
|
I always knew
|
It was never me
|
I was there for you
|
I was there for you
|
My darling one
|
And by your law
|
It all was done
|
|

There For You
