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.

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...
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...
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
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...
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...
