Drop From The Skyeasy road
Don't tempt me hon, I been down that road before No, don't tempt me hon, I been down that road before I'm addicted to you, you keep me coming back for more
Every time we break up, I come running back again Every time we break up, I come running back again You've had a hold on me since long before I don't know when
Some habits are easy, others are so hard to break Some habits are easy, others are so hard to break And I'm a you a holic, a hopeless case, yours to take
That's it, I've had it, I ain't coming 'round no more That's it, I've had it, I ain't coming 'round no more Except I see your bedroom light on and the key still in your door
easy road
Drop From The Skyeasy road
Right or wrong, doesn't mean a damn thing, anymore People die, it's a game, gotta even the score Don't want to think, have a seat, turn on the TV, where you'll learn what to buy, who to hate, who to be
Glazed look in his eye says it all when he starts to preach But tunnel hearing puts the truth way out of reach Shop for pre-made beliefs, like we've all done for years While god's greatest gift sits and rusts there between our ears
'Cause we just don't want to know We just don't want to know We just don't want to know We're taking the easy road
If you want to learn, sometimes being wrong is what it takes But we'd set this place on fire, before admitting our mistakes And as the world burns, all around, we continue to deny Train the kids to conform, not to question, and to die
It's too hard to change, that's the excuse you always hear It doesn't mean a better way, just one more person lost to fear We can't escape anymore, from this crazy road we drive Doing our best to kill the Earth that keeps us alive
'Cause we just don't want to know We just don't want to know We just don't want to know We're taking the easy road
Tough questions, they're the ones we need to ask ourselves Take a good look in the mirror and stop blaming someone else We love to divide ourselves, even rebels have a clique Let's see ourselves as one people and for once, make it stick
'Cause we just don't want to know We just don't want to know We just don't want to know We're taking the easy road
Same Thing
Drop From The SkyLyricseasy road
Whenever we talk, we go in circles over and over again And if ever we try to work things out, they just break down right then We 'been trying too long, I think it's useless So much we've lost, nothing's been gained We've got to let go, got to start all over and see if we can't end this pain
Your beautiful eyes no longer shine so bright Maybe it's you, maybe it's me But us two together makes one lonely night This didn't come suddenly Time and again we said "Let's give it one more go", then masquerading one more time But we need to realize what we already know and finally cross that last line
We said that things would change, but I'm tired of this game, 'cause it seems like the same thing to me So forget about my name and I'll take all the blame, 'cause it seems like the same thing to me It seems like the same thing to me Yeah
One more compromise, one more try at love Fooling ourselves is habit by now I want to escape, want to live again, and put this behind me, somehow You must understand we can't live this way, waiting for dreams that never come true I'd rather wake up and smell the brand new day, the one that can't include you
We said that things would change, but I'm tired of this game, 'cause it seems like the same thing to me So forget about my name and I'll take all the blame, 'cause it seems like the same thing to me
We said that things would change, but I'm tired of this game, 'cause it seems like the same thing to me Babe, there's nothing left to say, we're both better off this way, 'cause it seems like the same thing to me It seems like the same thing to me Yeah
Reach
Drop From The SkyLyricseasy road
Well I was going crazy but I'll come around I'll come around, before it's too late you know I was losing something but I'll come around, I'll come around before I'm drowned
My hand reaches up high Above muddy water grabs hold, pulls and then I Come following after I'm watching the sun rise And ending the long night Awake for the first time Fog lifting from my eye
I've been in a nightmare but I'm coming 'round I'm coming 'round, don't care anymore The chains are getting rusty 'cause I'm coming 'round I'm coming 'round, there's a new sound
I'm feeling my heart beat And hearing my breath sigh Sleepwalkers surround me, not knowing they're alive I'm walking through the crowd of faces looking down I start singing out loud,while they cling to their shrouds
I found the edge so I'm coming 'round, I'm coming 'round, I'll cling to the ground And sleep out in the forest 'cause I've come around I've come around, we've all been here before The paths meet in the middle and I've come around I've come around, not alone anymore Cold rain is falling on me 'cause I've come around I've come around I've come around
