Nickel Creek - Speak

Tekst :

Well, I sat down next to a photograph.
Tried my best, almost made her laugh.
She was my doll-faced crown.
There in the way was a mountain of inner clouds.

Well, I can t sleep and I m not in love.
Well, I can t speak without messing up.
Eyes tell her what s behind.
Hers showed the way to a long and a lonely climb.

At the failure of the sea,
She ll see how far I ve come.
And it s you an me in the silent sea.
I ll offer my heart to yours.
Seems to me no mystery.
It isn t so I ll try hard to speak.

Well, I sat down next to a living hell.
Tried my best until I struck out.
The movement is not mine.
I stood in the way, pretending that I was a vine.

Got no feeling I perceived,
From a mouth that drinks it s wine.
And it s not me, not my sanctity,
These aren t my words to you.
It s all clear when it s not in here.
So clear so I ll try not to speak.

    Fingertips

    You´re sliding down a dream, yea
    where nights are born in blue, that´s
    the truth,you´re swimming in a stream,
    o yeah, fish are jumpimg too, next to you

    suddenly you notice someone´s at
    the door, you could swaer you´ve been
    through this all...

    Temporary

    You ve changed so much in so little time
    What happened to your passion and drive
    for living life and living it out
    Has this all change from subtle doubt

    Skeptical, you play the skeptics role
    excusing blame, denying guilt
    You fame yourself with apostasy
    and then redeem yourself with mediocrity

    It s only temporary, (it seems like)
    Until...

    The plague

    Begin the madness
    Tear down the sign
    Ideals and values
    They use to keep us in line
    Turn a blind eye to jobless millions
    Queues of wreckage to be broken down
    Leaders feed us their solutions
    Mistakes the death cart clears away

    Heaven

    Well it s all right to feel like time is running down
    And make amends with those who once have let you down
    To cry for children who have not yet had their chance
    To pray for foes in hopes that one day we ll join hands...

    The last kiss

    There were times all along that I thought I was catching on
    Now I see it was only time catching up with me.
    As you stand at the door I know Ibe never wanted you more
    There s just one thing before you turn and you walk...
