From baby to best with no second test,
|
Little storms destroy you.
|
|
Here is the fame they promised to give you,
|
Taking the place of my hand now.
|
|
Did you try to be true?
|
What separates me from you?
|
What separates me from you now?
|
|
Did you borrow the soul,
|
The soul that you sell now?
|
What does your conscience tell you?
|
Where are the demons
|
Of your desire?
|
Why does my love destroy you?
|
|
Did you try to be true?
|
What separates me from you?
|
What separates me from you now?
|
|
I said I tried to be true.
|
What separates me from you.
|
I said I tried, tried to be true.
|
What separates me from you.
|
What separates me from you now?
|
|
Did you try to be true?
|
What separates me from you?
|
What separates me from you now?
|
|
So where is the fame,
|
Where is the fortune?
|
Where is the world that denies you?
|
Who is to blame,
|
When my heart finally forfeits
|
To a road that will only misguide you?
|
|
Did you try to be true?
|
What separates me from you?
|
What separates me from you now?
|
|
Did we try to be true?
|
What separates me from you?
|
Did we try, try to be true?
|
What separates me from you:
|
|
Did you try to be true?
|
What separates me from you?
|
What separates me from you now?
|
|
I bought my love a hunger
|
More precious than a stone.
|
All these fatal flowers,
|
Did I misguide you?
|
(Where is the world that denies you)
|
(Try to be true)
|
|
Did you try to be true?
|
What separates me from you?
|
What separates me from you now?
