The demon in your mind will rape you in your bed at night
The wisdom of ages, the lies and outrages concealed
Time it waits for no man, my future is revealed
Time it waits for no man, my fate is sealed
All the years of useless search
Have finally reached an end
Loneliness and empty days will be my only friend
From this day love is forgotten
I’ll go on as best I can.
What’ll I do
When you are far away
And I am blue
What’ll I do?
Did you think I’d crumble
Did you think I’d lay down and die
Oh no, not I
I will survive
When the walls come tumblin’ down
When the walls come crumblin’, crumblin’
When the walls come tumblin’, tumblin’ down
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
All in all it’s just another brick in the wall
All in all you’re just another brick in the wall
My gaze scans the walls of this apartment
To rectify the confines of my tomb
Lightning and thunder cause the walls to shake
And someone searching through the debris
For the photograph of his wife, oh I want life
I want it now and forever, I want to rise up out of this chamber
And clamber into the sky
Every time I see your face
It reminds me of the places we used to go
But all I’ve got is a photograph
And I realize you’re not coming back anymore
The exception I know is the case
When I’m out on a quiet spree,
Fighting vainly the old ennui,
And I suddenly turn and see your fabulous face.
have often walked down this street before;
But the pavement always stayed beneath my feet before.
All at once am I Several stories high.
Knowing I’m on the street where you live.
Winding your way down on Baker Street
Light in your head and dead on your feet
Well another crazy day, you’ll drink the night away
And forget about everything
This is no social crisis
Just another tricky day for you
Day by day, day by day
Oh, dear Lord, three things I pray.
To see thee more clearly
Love thee more dearly
Follow thee more nearly
Day by day.
Building castles in the air, whistling to the wind
As nature bows down her head, see what tomorrow brings.
Twilight time
Dream with me awhile.
Smashed again down into the gray
Despise for a world turned cold
No one sees what tomorrow knows
You can’t turn back the clock, you can’t turn back the tide
Ain’t that a shame?
I’d like to go back one time on a roller coaster ride
When life was just a game
If I could turn back time
If I could find a way
I’d take back those words that hurt you
And you’d stay
Ticking away the moments that make up a dull day
Fritter and waste the hours in an off-hand way
Is it any wonder I’ve got too much time on my hands
It’s ticking away with my sanity, I’ve got too much time on my hands
It’s hard to believe such a calamity, I’ve got too much time on my hands
And it’s ticking away, ticking away from me
