Paul Manousos-words, music and arranging
Steve, Lori and I were in the studio discussing the cello parts, and I turned to Lori and told her I wanted desperation, something gut renching.
closing in on 3 AM, Don’t know where I’ve been a lazy staggered step, my shoes are wearing thin why did I compromise the situation with all the lies? temptation found its way now everything is torn and frayed somewhere in this lonely town there are lovers lost and found that’s were you won’t find me, I don’t need the sympathy i locked myself away didn’t hear what she had to say the lights were burning out, faster than the plans were made the unclear infatuation, badly delivered dissertations falling fast with no net below dragged down by the under toe and somewhere in this lonely town the bus wheels bring me down carrying you away. Headlines, the hit parade! i gave you all of my heart I gave you all of my soul if you don’t have them any more, where the hell did they go? i think you just want revenge That’s no means to an end i’ll get over you I’m sure, Just dim the lights door slams at 5 AM the secret life of a broken man i’ll sleep when I’m dead and a little in between the evidence is not that clear it’s my turn to disappear i'm a wash of a man with colors inside every now and then I try to see it clear an easy way out of here breathe a little rest and wait for my heart to communicate. i gave you all of my heart I gave you all of my soul if you don’t have it any more, where the hell did it go? i think you just want revenge that’s no means to an end i'll get over you I’m sure, Just dim the lights i'm so Broken i'm so broken i gave you all of my heart I gave you all of my soul if you don’t have them any more, where the hell did they go? i think you just want revenge That’s no means to an end i’ll get over you I’m sure, Just dim the lights
