Yesterday's charade
|
Made us all kneel down and pray
|
And we thought about
|
The way we had it made
|
Yesterday's hoorays
|
Seem a little bit cold today
|
When I try to talk
|
I'm lost for words to say
|
I try to run
|
Try to run back now
|
Try to love
|
But I don't know how
|
How to love again
|
I'm giving up
|
Giving up my vows
|
I tried to leave
|
But I got kicked out
|
All the doors that lead
|
Have opened paths to yesterday
|
Silence writes a page
|
In a diary I once made
|
But I don't care
|
Who can read it anymore
|
I try to run
|
Try to run back now
|
Try to love
|
But I don't know how
|
How to love again
|
I try to dream
|
But I'm all dreamt out
|
I try to sleep
|
But I just can't fake it
|
All the crazy dreams
|
Have broken paths to run away
|
Voices I speak in sleep
|
Tell the secrets that I keep
|
In the night you've got your ear
|
Against my door
|
I try to run
|
Try to run back now
|
Try to love
|
But I don't know how
|
How to love again
|
I try to dream
|
But I'm all dreamt out
|
I try to sleep
|
But I just can't fake it
|
All the doors that lead
|
Have opened paths to yesterday
|
Yesterday's charade
|
Made us all kneel down and pray
|
And we thought about the way we had it made
|
