Sneaker Pimps - Flowers and silence

Tekst :

We re always too always in doubt
works on me
she s nowhere she mainlines helps me out
now i can speak
was heard not seen wasted nothings free
was black was bruised fucked up twenty two

i m amazed you eat you sleep you function at all
cos my aims so weak i d fail to get into my arm
was made the first to laugh
tried but the tribute short changed kidness
flowers and silence
was made the first to laugh
charmed but the weather broke me sober
i ve never been colder

seen braver seemed braver since then
but never been
no favours no saviours no sense
it s not in me
so nothing s free ghostdrunk out of reach
so action this cared less never missed
and you preach you teach did i learn you nothing at all
i m too dumb to see but you stooped for someone this small

you ll always be closing me down denied me remind me i m sold out
just skin and teeth
left black and bruised fucked up nothing new
was heard not seen wasted so nothing s free

    Enough (interlude)

    [Girl] Hey baby

    [Girl] Huh? I m on my way home
    [Guy] It s four thirty in the mornin

    Consign to oblivion

    How can we let this happen and
    Just keep our eyes closed ‘till the end

    The only thing that counts is the prosperity of today
    Most important to us is that our bills get paid

    Our good intentions have always been delayed

    How can we let this...

    My last step beyond

    The edge of the abyss, where the journeys end
    visible crossroads, where mortal lives will bend
    the moment of truth, the calm before the storm
    the camouflage of liars, abruptly will be torn

    At the end of the tunnel, I m awaiting the truth
    through the misty twilight, perhaps eternal youth
    do I feel the pale...

    Heaven

    You don t need no friends
    Get back your faith again
    You have the power to believe
    Another dissident
    Take back your evidence
    It has no power to deceive

    I ll believe it
    When I see it
    For myself

    Tennessee waltz

    I was dancing with my darlin to the Tennessee Waltz
    When an old friend I happened to meet.
    I introduced her to my darling, and while they were dancing,
    My friend stoled my sweetheart from me.

    I remember the night and the Tennessee Waltz,
    I m knowing now...
