The World According To Lionel

All Just Another

She takes me for the weakness
That's buried in my trust
She takes me for a witness
of the beauty of her lust
She takes me to her silence
A place I cannot go
She takes me to the evidence
Of something I can never know

And it's all just another
And it's all just a day
And it's all just something
We'd prefer not to say
And it's all just weakness
And it's all just a dream
And it's all just the madness
That falls in between

There's a man out on the corner
emptying his soul out to the moonless sky
And it doesn't matter weather he's drunk or sober
Nothing matters once you've watched your dreams die
Last night I walked out with my heart
To the place where the fires were lit
And there in the ash was a trampled old rose
And a card with your name on it

And so you make yourself a promise
and you make yourself a deal
That you'll never fall back in that crevice
Yeah you swear on your heart not to feel
But there's a death that comes upon us
Like a ghost in the night of this song
But they tell me there's plenty
Of gold to defend me
And an alter to worship what's gone

So I pull myself out of the water
And I pull my soul out of the blue
I take myself over the border line
to a time before you
As the waves crash against your window
Can you feel the tides rising high
And even though I'm so feeble I try to send you a signal
That it's only the lies that die
