lyrics

Like A Song

When love came crashing in defeat / I stumbled down an empty street
I mixed my blood with oil and concrete
I cursed your name in several ways / Severed what we’re waiting for
I contemplated knocking on your kitchen door

I follow her in hot pursuit / Gun in hand and bulletproof
My shirt was ripped and I confessed ‘I love you’
Like Brando swore ‘forevermore’ / I wore my grief in semaphore
So place your head against my chest and close your eyes

Beauty is so frightening
When its gone / When its gone
It haunts you / And it taunts you
Like a song
Like a song

I understood the circumstance / I struck my loss and took my chance
Divining all your secrets in a farewell glance
You loved him but didn’t know / You only loved for style and show
To break his heart would only prove a point

Well in those lights you changed in form / Something strange / Conceived and born
You laughed as if to say ‘I am quite happy’
To hold that soiled, unwashed hand / To love that rock n’ roller band
I am quite comfortable with what you’re saying

Beauty is so frightening
When its gone / When its gone
It haunts you / And it taunts you
Like a song
Like a song

Well on we drift into the night / You to Him and me to fight
A single blade of doubt has touched my tongue
I speak of love in only lies / The one who sings does rarely try
To put his feelings into a practice

You see the tortured artist is just for show / It keeps my fears right in control
It lets the ink bleed onto my paper
For I have loved and lost again / Lost a love and kept a friend
The pain it goes no deeper than the surface

Beauty is so frightening
When its gone / When its gone
It haunts you / And it taunts you
Like a song
Like a song
