Catch me if I fall
I'm losing hold
I can't just carry on this way

And every time
I turn away
Lose another blind game

The idea of perfection holds me
Suddenly I see you change
Everything at once

The same
But the mountain never moves


Rape me like a child
Christened in blood
Painted like an unknown saint

There's nothing left but hope
Your voice is dead
And old

And always empty
Trust in me through closing years
Perfect moments wait

If only we could stay
Please
Say the right words

Or cry like the stone white clown
And stand forever
Lost forever in a happy crowd


No one lifts their hands
No one lifts their eyes

Justified with empty words
The party just gets better and better


I went away alone
With nothing left
But faith
