Lyrics

You think it's all the same You think that I'm to blame You couldn't fight the noise The world has chewed me out Got no words left to shout But I'm still thinking If there was anything left at stake I'd take it before you could And don't act like you know what to say If you do, you never should. ----- Where is the symphony that the ghosts play every evening Where is the sympathy that the mourning gospel’s singing Why do the blackbirds cry, and why do the roses die Why can’t the sands of time wash away, wash away ----- Remember summer nights Remember blackened eyes All so bittersweet The fire burned so long Screamed out a banshee's song Then turned as cold as ice Lady luck is a harlot's name She never payed my dues This life has put me up for shame And I don't know what to do.
