The Girl Who Cried Wolf Lyrics
Stay
I can’t let you walk away now
Don’t decide, cos my love is forgiving
Stay
Try to remember the way we were
When our love was beginning
Will you stay with me tonight
Let your heart beat into mine
Cos if you look me in the eye
I know you’ll feel it
And I’m gonna fight, I’m gonna fight for you
I know you’re trying to run from this
But your gonna feel my shadow
Cos there’s no better place than here for you
Oh just breathe and reach again
Hold onto the years
Will you stay with me tonight
Let your heart beat into mine
Close your eyes and just stop time for a moment
Cos I’m gonna fight, I’m gonna fight for you
I’m gonna fight, I’m gonna fight for you
Ooh will you love me now
Ooh will you love me now
Hold me close say you’ll never let go
New things
Well I’ve seen a thousand pedestrians drowning on nothing
And on the corner at the local, just regulars, they’re regular
Waiting for something, something to appear miraculously
Waiting for someone to change them, to love them
But if you notice now
Its not too late for new things
If you listen out loud
You can reach inside for new things
If you blow away this cloud
You will find new things
If you open your eyes
Just open your heart to new things
There in the car park, or walking, or shopping
There’s a glare in the eye of robotic beings
There’s more life in the ocean or the garden
Or machines in factories
Where you’d see a spark, Where you’d see a spark
But if you notice now
Its not too late for new things
If you listen out loud
You can reach inside for new things
If you blow away this cloud
You will find new things
If you open your eyes
Just open your heart to new things
You’ll fly like a bird
The Girl Who Cried Wolf
The headlights were too bright
Felt like escaping
The hollow words in my mind
There to betray me
All that I feared just kept me, kept me from shining
All that I feared is now subsiding, subsiding
So I’ll be the girl, the girl
Who cried wolf
I’ll be the girl, the girl
Who cried wolf
In a world where love is bare
I wanted shelter
In my heart of despair
I tried to avoid the helter skelter
And now I realise that I was the enemy
And now I realise that facing me gave life to me
So I’ll be the girl, the girl
Who cried wolf
I’ll be the girl, the girl
Who cried wolf
Put me back piece by piece with a little love, a little love
God will you enlighten me
I wear my heart proudly on my sleave
Try to follow the truth, follow destiny
But things aren’t measuring up
And I’ve tried so hard
I feel like giving up
Its just too hard
So God
Will you enlighten me?
If I’ve got things wrong
Show me a way to see
Cos I am lost
And if this isn’t what you meant for me
Steer me on the right path
Point me in the right direction
I’ve waved goodbye to many, many years
Put my head down and gave my life for my hearts to steer
Now nothings measuring up and I don’t know why
I’ve given all that I’ve got but I’m running out of time
So God
Will you enlighten me?
If I’ve got things wrong
Show me a way to see
Cos I am lost
And if this isn’t what you meant for me
Steer me on the right path
Point me in the right direction
I breathe in slowly but I’m running out of air
Oh give me, show me, hold me oh guide me
He
He’s all I dream of when I close my eyes
He’s what I look for when I search through the glass
He’s my armour when I lay on his chest
He protects me from all the rest
If I couldn’t have him
My heart would stop beating
He’s my one and only
He’s meant for me
He turns shadows into sunlight
He’s the hours, the days and the nights
He’s all the life I live for
He’s the one I’d die for
If I couldn’t have him
My heart would stop beating
He’s my one and only
He’s meant for me
Unbearable
I see your face in the dark
The kaleidoscope jump starts
A pain right to my heart
Even though I trusted my soul
Even though you crushed it you know
I still miss you so
And now I know wont hold you again my arms
I want see you again
Its unbearable, its just unbearable
I’m alone
Oh your words reduce me to tears
And I have at least 50 more years to drown in your deception
Your just a criminal living in my skin
Suffocating everything
But it’s a criminal thing
To have let you in
And now I know wont hold you again my arms
I want see you again
Its unbearable, its just unbearable
I feel a poisoned arrow
Burning in my heart
Its like I never knew you
Didn’t know that I was sailing upon your sea of lies
Feels like I never knew you at all
The Burn
Your soul, your soul is drifting away
I can see it leaving
You gave up on your dreams while watching TV
In a world devoid of passion you’re an empty figure
You may as well go ahead and pull the trigger
Are you waiting for a car to crash through the ceiling
Are you waiting for the sky to turn into dust
Are you looking for that fire, a spark of desire
Don’t wait around anymore to feel the burn, burn, burn
Somewhere, somewhere deep inside you yearn for freedom
There’s a distant pulse inside the walls you’ve hidden
There’s a seething bitter feeling holding the pain
So you lock, so you lock yourself away, away
Are you waiting for a car to crash through the ceiling
Are you waiting for the sky to turn into dust
Are you looking for that fire, a spark of desire
Don’t wait around anymore to feel the burn, burn, burn
Driving with my eyes closed
I wanna fall into the breeze
Catch a glimpse of a calmer sea
I wanna wake up to the sky
Holding out a star to shine some light
I wanna shout out every word
Be in rhythm with the beating earth
I wanna stand with pride in a forest of fear
Or look into my heart without a tear
But I’m so tired
Driving with my eyes closed
I wanna wake where I began
I wanna hold onto a lovers hand
I wanna listen to the silent night
Or hear the promise of a warm invite
But I’m so tired
Driving with my eyes closed
Telescope
Take my hand as I try unravelling
When life let me down
The walls came up
Now I live in shadows
Girl I see the cracks I see the breaks
Holding you back
I see your dreams slipping away
Don’t live like that
You have a choice you have to make
Don’t live in shadows
Shine your heart up to the sky
The birds know what to do with you
I’ll shine my heart up to the sky
The birds know what to do with me
I’ve lost hope
I’ve lost my telescope
My courage has crumbled into dust
Now I live in windows
Oh love
I know you’re running, escaping
But if you scream out
Everything inside, every part of your mind
It will clean out the ocean of emptiness
You will feel at rest
So don’t hide in windows
Sweet burning flames
You took me by surprise
And I didn’t think for a second
I was shaken by the earth
Spitting me out of the canon
Awaken everything
I follow you to danger
And with a darkness in the wings
I’m unfolding a treasure
Now I dive into the arms
Of heaven and hell
Now I dive into the arms
Of pleasure and pain
In a twist of sweet burning flames
The coat of arms beneath
Has been destroyed in the battle
And now weakened by the force
An open heart for you to trample
Now I’m staring at the stars
I cannot sleep now I’m the hunter
So the price I have to pay
Is an eternal hunger
Now I dive into the arms
Of heaven and hell
Now I dive into the arms
Of pleasure and pain
In a twist of sweet burning flames
How, how will I Hold my head up high
More than I can take
Broken glass is thrown away
The splinters left become your pain
Funny how trouble wont fade away
What’s in your veins stays in your veins
I try not to break
But sometimes its more than I can take
Blood is thicker than water they say
But I’ve tried to wash my blood away
Funny how those scars don’t leave a trace
The ones that leave the deepest pain
I try not to break
But sometimes its more than I can take
