Overload

Took a long time to mend
Took a long time to make amends
Funny how the story goes
Strip a man bare and burn his clothes
Time is all I crave
It comes in waves
I will be here until I drown
System's on overload
Goes to bed warm but wakes up cold
What a bloody cross to bare
Time on my hands but I don't care
Days are all the same
They wax and wane
I will be here until I drown
Time is all I crave
It comes in waves
I will be here until I drown
Days are all the same
They wax and wane
I will be here until I drown
Time is all I crave
It comes in waves
I will be here until I drown


My Favourite Game

I don't know what you're looking for
you haven't found it baby, that's for sure
You rip me up and spread me all around
in the dust of the deed of time

And this is not a case of lust, you see
it's not a matter of you versus of me
It's fine the way you want me on your own
but in the end it's always me alone

And I'm losing my favourite game
you're losing your mind again
I'm losing my baby
losing my favourite game

I only know what I've been working for
another you so I could love you more
I really thought that I could take you there
but my experiment is not getting us anywhere

I had a vision I could turn you right
a stupid mission and a lethal fight
I should have seen it when my hope was new
my heart is black and my body is blue

And I'm losing my favourite game
you're losing your mind again
I'm losing my favourite game
I've tried but you're still the same
I'm losing my baby
you're losing a saviour and a saint


Lovefool

Dear, I fear we're facing a problem
You love me no longer, I know
And maybe there is nothing
That I can do to make you do
Mama tells me I shouldn't bother
That I ought to stick to another man
A man that surely deserves me
But I think you do!

So I cry, I pray and I beg

Love me love me
Say that you love me
Fool me fool me
Go on and fool me
Love me love me
Pretend that you love me
Leave me leave me
Just say that you need me
Love me love me
Say that you love me
Leave me leave me
Just say that you need me
I can't care 'bout anything but you...

Lately I have desperately pondered,
Spent my nights awake and I wonder
What I could have done in another way
To make you stay
Reason will not lead to solution
I will end up lost in confusion
I don't care if you really care
As long as you don't go

So I cry, I pray, and I beg

Love me, love me
Say that you love me
Fool me, fool me
Go on and fool me
Love me, love me
Pretend that you love me
Leave me, leave me
Just say that you need me
So I cry, and I pray for you to
Love me, love me
Say that you love me
Leave me, leave me
Just say that you need me
I can't care 'bout anything but you...

Anything but you...

Love me, love me (Say that you love me)
Fool me, fool me (Go on and fool me)
Love me, love me (I know that you need me)
I can't care 'bout anything but you..

Give Me Your Eyes

Oh girl, look at yourself, what have you done
What have you become
Well, I couldn't say
Slow down and think of your heart, where do you go
Now, how am I supposed to know, I'm always looking away

Give me your eyes so I can see me straight
Give me your eyes
I can't tell night from day
Give me your eyes so I can see me straight
Give me your eyes and watch me walk away
Yeah, yeah, yeah
I took a look at myself
Nothing inside
Except for cigarettes and wine where there should be a life
You've been watching me for a while and you like what you see
It's in the eyes of the beholder
Now give them to me

Give me your eyes so I can see me straight
Give me your eyes that seem to light my face
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Oh mirror, mirror upon the wall
Who is the fairest of them all
Mirror, mirror made no reply
Mirror went black and cracked from side to side
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Oh girl, look at yourself, what have you done
What have you become
You know the camera don't lie
Give me your eyes so I can see me straight
Give me your eyes I can't tell night from day

Come give me your eyes so I can see me straight
Give me your eyes and watch me walk away
Yeah!

Give me your eyes
Give me your eyes
Yeah, yeah, yeah!
