The Mess (we Made Of Our Lives)

I promised you, one day in June

So sang the rain,

The mess we made of our lives.

I compensate with angered eyes

Don't ask me why,

We shouldn't talk in the past

Where is this world?

Where streets are gold?

Damn all their lies

The mud that sticks to your soul.

In my despair, I spurned your love

These sacred years,

Are gone before they are cold

I'm lost before your eyes,

That see everything,

Lost before your eyes

That see everything

There's no fire

(Those trees will fall together)

Don't want fire

(Not now, not ever)

Nothing shameless

(Lie in our beds forever)

Don't do shameless

A midnight train

To streets unknown.

Don't mean a thing

The lovers kiss as they go.

And so I wait,

In patient line

These empty days.

The way we mess with our lives,

The way we mess with our lives,

The way we mess with our... lives.

I'm lost before your eyes,

That see everything

Lost before your eyes

That see everything.

There's no fire

(Those trees will fall together)

Don't want fire

(Not now, not ever)

Nothing shameless

(Lie in our beds forever)

Don't do shameless

I promised you,

One day in June

So sang the rain

The mess we made of our lives.
