Nothing standing in your way, feeling good
And girls want to check you out, looking good
'Cos shops want to let you in, 'cos you've been a fool
You just can't help it
Suddenly it seems worthwhile, life's a gas
And just when it all goes right, working out
And just when I hit that high, I am a fool
Just can't help it
(Ah-ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah)
(I've been a fool) I've been a fool, again
Doesn't matter what I do
(I've been a fool) I've been a fool
Can't stop myself from drowning
Nothing left to get you down, feeling good
And know that you're always right, thank the lord
As cars swerving out your way, and you are a fool
You just can't help it
Suddenly you get mixed up, feeling bad
And everything you do is wrong, looking bad
And feel that you're out of touch, you've been a fool
Just can't help it
(Ah-ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah)
(I've been a fool) I've been a fool, again
Doesn't matter what I do
(I've been a fool) I've been a fool, for you again
Doesn't matter what I do
(I've been a fool) I've been a fool
Can't help myself from drowning, yeah
Just when I take one step forward and two back
(I've been a fool) I've been a fool, again
Doesn't matter what I do
(I've been a fool) I've been a fool, for you again
Doesn't matter what I do
(I've been a fool) I've been a fool
Can't stop myself from drowning, yeah
(Ah-ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah)
FADE IN TIME
All my rage is hollower
than its been
My defences got
the best of me
I'm reserved to
fade with time
And I'll fade with time
And I'll fade in time
And I'll fade with time
I'll move on in time
What I thought was permanent
is a sham
It's disappearing
from underneath of me
Everyone will disappear
And I'll fade with time
And they'll fade in time
And they'll fade in time
I'll be gone in time
Get my smarted
everyone let me down
I saw them crumble
right in front of me
I accept this fate
as mine
They'll fade in time
And they'll fade in time
And they'll fade in time
I'll be gone in time
And they'll fade with time
And they'll fade in time
And they'll fade in time
And they'll fade in time
And they'll fade in time
And they'll fade in time
And they'll fade with time
Move on in time
And they'll fade in time
BLACK INFINITE SPACE
Night-time's a terrible thing
And my arms and my legs
feel like needles and pins
My eyes they are sore
and I'm losing one thing
And I'm losing my grip
on the life that I knew
And I'm sick of this
I go on forever
Black infinite space
I'm moving through
infinite space
Panic is making me ill
My perspective has gone
As I sit in this hell
where in the world
Does my sanity stretch?
And it makes me feel sick
And it doesn't make sense
I'm a coward at heart
I've been from the start
Inadequate
in every way
Great paranoia comes down
As I sit in the dark
But I wish I was out
This magnetic pull
that is sucking me in
To this infinite space
where I never can win
And I'm sick of this
It goes on forever
Black infinite space
I'm moving through
infinite space
Black infinite space
I'm coming through
out of my way
(And it goes on forever)
I'm a coward at heart
I've been from the start
Inadequate
in every way
Night-time's a terrible thing
And my arms and my legs
feel like needles and pins
My eyes they are sore
and I'm losing one thing
And I'm losing my grip
on the life that I knew
And I'm sick of this
I go on forever
Black infinite space
I'm coming through
infinite space
Black infinite space
I'm coming through
out of my way
Black infinite space
I'm coming through
infinite space
Black infinite space
I'm coming through
infinite space
(Na-na-na-na-na-na)
I'VE SEEN THE TOP OF THE MOUNTAIN
All this built up passion
burnt out anyway
Didn't see it come
you get stuck in your ways
Oh please
no summons or lectures here
Oh
I'm empty today
today
Not a single thing
could persuade me to stay
But I've seen the
top of the mountain
Now there's only one place
to go Downhill could be
my best direction
downhill I'll go
Downhill could be my
best direction
downhill I'll go
Physically I'm present
but my soul's away
Everybody sees
just straight in your face
Oh please
my nature's unchangeable
Oh
just leave it for me
for me
Could you tolerate?
Could you give me some space?
Cos I've seen the
top of the mountain
Now there's only
one place to go
Downhill could be
my best direction
downhill I'll go
Downhill could be
my best direction
downhill I'll go
Today
today
There's not a single thing
could persuade me to stay
Cos I've seen the
top of the mountain
Now there's only
one place to go
Downhill could be my
best direction
downhill I'll go
Downhill could be my
best direction
downhill I go
PROMISES
We were a joke
we were fools
Such a disgrace
but I was used
You never kept
your promises
But I still
believed you
You lied and you cheated
You stole my belongings
and threw me away
Believed anything
that you said
Put all those doubts
in my head
what a loser
Stick around
cos life is too short
you said
You said we could
still be friends
You lied to me again
You said we could
still be friends
You never kept
your promises
Kept those promises
Don't change the world
that's what you said
But don't hold a grudge
is what you meant
I
I'm reconstructed
With or without you
in spite of our difference
I'm walking away
Believed anything
that you said
Put all those doubts
in my head
what a loser
Stick around
cos life is too short
you said
You said we could
still be friends
You lied to me again
You said we could
still be friends
You never kept
your promises
So keep
those promises
We were a joke
we were fools
Such a disgrace
but we were used
And now I've found
you said it goes for
For the millions
that you'll never use
Anything that you said
Put all those doubts
in my head
I'm a loser
Stick around
cos life is too short
you said
You said we could
still be friends
You lied to me again
You said we could
still be friends
You lied to me again
You said we could
still be friends
You never kept
those promises
Kept those promises
So we can move on
