- 'FIXED WATER' LYRICS 1. Is it any wonder this world is full of dreamers and this world is full of deceivers but when kind words can part true lovers is it any wonder that to me love has no meaning that to me love has no meaning that to me love has no meaning is it any wonder and this world is full of talkers and this world is full of lies but I spent my time pushing away the ones that love me is it any wonder that to me love has no meaning that love has no meaning 2. So slow I turn of the light but leave the television talking no, tonight I don't want to be alone I try to close my eyes, but I'm afraid of the dark I see you everywhere I see you everywhere but death comes so slow when you're waiting when you're waiting to be taken death comes so slow when it's all you want and it takes the ones that don't death comes so slow and death comes so slow I try to close my eyes, but I'm afraid of the dark I see you everywhere I see you everywhere 3. Are you happy now I tried to understand but I just hurt you instead and now you've given up and said 'it's really not worth it' and I know it must be hard when you're so forgiving when I'm always taking and I'm never giving oh I try to understand but I just hurt you instead are you happy now I tried to open up, let go but you said I was holding you back has the last year really been as bad as that I know I tend to forget when you're not there all I remember is how much you liked it when I ran my hands through your hair oh I try to understand but I just hurt you instead are you happy now there's a tunnel (repeated) 4.

The death of a salesman I walk across the road and the duke opens his door I've got to get away from what I know I take a seat by an open window I turn when I hear someone say 'it can go both ways' I finish my drink and reach for my coat I say goodbye to some people that I think I know I step into the street the rain feels nice in this heat I say I'm sorry as I reach for the lights there's nothing like a long walk on a rainy night there's nothing like a long walk on a rainy night I take some advice from a man in death intercepted he said 'take some time don't let the small things pass by' but still I cover myself in the presence of a body that's lifeless I say I'm sorry as I reach for the lights no I'll never let you see me undress oh the death of a salesman 6. Last night I had a dream last night I had a dream you were whacked out on coke and speed the smoke had stained your teeth you were so rushed you could hardly speak it made me so sad to see you looking so old is this what happiness is like when it's taken its toll but this is never the life I thought you aspired to believe oh what has rock and roll led you to believe this is never the life I thought you aspired to lead oh what has rock and roll led you to believe I saw you the other day I just wanted to sit and talk a while I missed you so much it's like I wanted life to be confirmed by your smile and it made me so sad to see you looking so old is this what happiness is like when it's taken it's toll but this is never the life I thought you aspired to lead oh what has rock and roll led you to believe this is never the life I thought you aspired to lead oh what has rock and roll led you to believe is this what happiness is like 7.

I can't believe the things I can't believe I can't believe the things I say to you I can't believe the things I think I can't believe the things I put you through I can't believe that you still stay and I can't believe the things I can't believe I can't believe how easily the silences can explain some things that always seem so hard to say I can't believe how hard some things are to say like 'how'd we ever end up this way' and I can't believe the things I can't believe |
