Rooster 1집 - Rooster (2005) by Rooster (보컬) on maniadb.com

When I wake and the sky seems to break
and the bang in my head is my heart just trying to keep me alive
Then I rise and the room starts to shake,
And I'm walking on glass trying to remember
Trying to get straight when all I wanna do is cut back the tape
Replay last night with you
Feel what its like to flip out, be surrounded by sounds of the crowd,
Carry me away now

I don't know why, we're in this situation
And I don't, know how there's something missing

[Chorus]
No point living when you don't know you're alive,
follow you, 'cos only you take me up this high
Don't need no complications when I only want to fly
Cos its beautiful just playing with you
Take me on a joyride

I like the way you abuse my mind
Abuse me all the time, paranoid you're gonna leave me behind
Resonate like a bass when you pulling my strings ever tighter
Think I'm overheating
Barely nineteen, but you know what I mean
When I fail to describe this place where I've been living
Trying to stay strong when you're dragging me on
with complete disregard for anything that's wrong, yeah

[Bridge]

[Chorus]

Look at my face, what have you done,
Do you see yourself in my reflection
Tumbling down, out of control
Nothing to lose, this is where it came from
Follow you 'cos only you could take me up this high

[Chorus]

Baby it don't matter
Anyone can see the signs
I caught you looking over
With just a little bit of a smile
You tell him that you love him
While I'm running through your mind
'Cos I know that you know
Your cover will blow
It's only a matter of time
It's not my style
To try and cheat and lie
Why do you sanctify
Something that already died
I've got something
that'll bring you alive
Are you gonna shout it
from the rooftops honey
Tell me I'm the only one
Kick him to the curb
baby don't stop running
Tell me are you gonna come get some
Did you ever ask yourself the question
Where the hell did I go wrong
'Cos you know when it's through
I'll be waiting for you
So tell me how you're gonna
come come come get some
All those words you're wasting
Trying to tell yourself
you need more time
What's the point in fakin'
when you know you'll
never make it right
you say your head is blurry
but I can't get you out of mine
I don't mean to cause pressure
But I just can't let you go on
while you're living this lie
It's not my style
To let this pass me by
Why do you sanctify
Something that already died
I've got something that'll
bring you alive
Are you gonna shout it
from the rooftops honey
Tell me I'm the only one
Kick him to the curb
baby don't stop running
Tell me are you gonna come get some
Did you ever ask yourself the question
Where the hell did I go wrong
'Cos you know when it's through
I'll be waiting for you
So tell me how you're gonna
come come come get some
Crushed out and waiting
Blacked out and fading'
Flaked out and shaken'
Just breaking for you
Breaking for you
Freaked out and pacing
I can't go on like this forever
Are you gonna shout it from
the rooftops honey
Tell me I'm the only one
Kick him to the curb
baby don't stop running
Tell me are you gonna come get some
Did you ever ask yourself the question
Where the hell did I go wrong
'Cos you know when it's through
I'll be waiting for you
So tell me how you're gonna
come come come get some

I spent a lifetime searching
For what I thought I'd found
But you're just the same
It's still a losing game
I'm a face out of the crowd

[Bridge:]
You love and you leave
Yeah you lie and deceive
How can you sleep at night?
Say you're just having fun
We all think we're the one
What you're doing Just aint right

[Chorus:]
I can't do it
I won't say it
My heart is breaking but I won't let you know
I can't show it
I won't loose it
My bodies shaking and I'm ready to roll
Am I just standing in line
Are you just wasting my time

So you're just an illusion
Breathing the best of me
Got games to slow me down
Stop messing me around
Thought you were here to set me free

[Bridge]

[Chorus]

Daylight on my shoulder
Makes me feel alive
You kept me standing in your shadow
And it's a cold cold place to hide
I'm running away
from this messed up place
I'm breaking free yeah yeah
I'm tired of staring at the sun
Can't stand the way you
put my eyes so I can't see
Stealing every breath I breathe
You push me into overdrive
And I don't need this kind of light
coz now I'm done
You took everything
while I was staring at the sun

I know you won't let me
But just turn and walk away
I'm tired of when you
kick me around
Trying to kill my dreams
and break me down
But I won't hang around
I'm running away
from this messed up place
I'm breaking free yeah yeah
I'm tired of staring at the sun
Can't stand the way you
put my eyes so I can't see
Stealing every breath I breathe
You push me into overdrive
And I don't need this kind of light
coz now I'm done
You took everything
while I was staring at the sun
I was staring at the sun

Daylight on my shoulder
I know its time to run
Yes I know its time to run
I'm tired of staring at the sun
Can't stand the way
you put my eyes so I can't see
Stealing every breath I breathe
You push me into overdrive
And I don't need this kind of light
coz now I'm done
You took everything while I was
staring at the sun
Yeah yeah staring at the sun
You took everything while I was
staring at the sun

How can it hurt
When I feel no pain
How can it heal
If i look the same

[Bridge:]
I've been searching all my mornings
For the last breath of a dream
Are you drowning or just waving
'Cos im tearing at the seams

[Chorus:]
I wanna live
And I wanna breath
Always thought you'd be the one to set me free
But i can forgive
'Cos you make me believe in something more
Now I only want to live if i can find
Find somebody to die for
Find somebody to die for

How can you lose
if its not a game
How can you love
if you're never going to change

[Bridge]

[Chorus]

Gonna find my way
Through this maze of my desire
Come what may bitter love or wasted time
You might say
I'm chasing shadows in my mind
But there's a light that guides my way to all I live for
Somebody to die for

[Chorus]

Well I lost my faith in fellow man
I've been living alone for so long
That I don't know who I am
Why did it take so long?
Why did it take so long?

I've been waiting a lifetime
For someone like you to set me free
Why did it take so long?
For you to come and rescue me
Why did it take so long?
Why did it take so long?

Cause you're beautiful and everyone knows it
And you're everything I want you to be
I got sunshine on my face
My smile shows it
Well it can't be wrong
Cause you're so right for me

You're so right for me,
Yeah, yeah
You're so right for me

Well it just don't matter if its wrong or right
I didnt know something could feel so good
I've been wasting all my time
Why did it take so long?
Why did it take so long?

Cause you're beautiful and everyone knows it
And you're everything I want you to be
I got sunshine on my face
My smile shows it
Well it can't be wrong
Cause you're so right for me
You're so right for me,
you're so right for me
Repeat to fade

Sick and tired of being broke
Theres no way out of such a joke
Cant get out of the red, on the bread line
Gonna dive in deep, its the perfect crime

Like a beggar like a thief
To get a break's like pullin' teeth
I could try to make it but they're begging me to borrow
Spend, spend, spend like theres no tomorrow

[Bridge:]
Acting like youre loaded
Knowing that youre broke
When you got a lot of nothing
It cant go up in smole

[Chorus:]
Wanna go platinum blind
Maz it out- Im gonna blow my mind
Tear it up- and i just cant win
Tired of looking from the outside, in.

Wanna lose the plot
Spend some money that I aint got (its a money trap)
Well it tastes so fine
Cos you cant see nothing when youre platinum blind

Its not about the finer things
Just need that buzz that plastic brings
Got to live it up like a right man
Other peoples money running through my hands

Pay it off but whats the use
Why tighten my belt- feels like a noose
Something out of nothing take the rap whenever
Cash my cheques at the bank and never never

[Bridge]

[Chorus]

Falling... gonna hit the ground
Deeper...Think Im gonna drown
Not im itching, 'cos theres no one else around
Got to get another hit cos I think im coming down

[Chorus]

I I dont know why i miss you so much
Yeah I I dont know why
I still feel your touch
You you left me feeling high
and dry With nothing
nothing but the question why
Yeah you I guess you had another
direction And leaving me
with nothing but a dead connection
If you call me today
I'll say that Im fine
But I bet you can tell by the
tone of my voiceIts just a lie
You knew what you had
You still walked away leaving me
in this mess My love for you
is deep and meaningless
You you knew what you were
doing to me And I I guess I
was too blind to see
Well you hit where it hurt
and you fooled me so bad
But I'd do it again to relive
what we had Damn thats sad
There are many things left to
remind me Of a love that I
just cant leave behind me
If you call me today
I'll say that Im fine
But I bet you can tell by the
tone of my voiceIts just a lie
You knew what you had
You still walked away leaving me
in this mess My love for you
is deep and meaningless

If you call me today
I'll say that Im fine
But I bet you can tell by the
tone of my voiceIts just a lie
You knew what you had
You still walked away leaving me
in this mess My love for you
is deep and meaningless

is deep and meaningless

Standing there
I could feel it happening
It happened to be happening to you and me
Took me off my feet
Made me pursue it
Now you tell me youre not mine exclusively

[Bridge:]
So i push you to one side

[Chorus:]
And then I see you again
And that look is in your eyes
You blew my mind but it wasnt real
So im back and on tehe road again

Life rools on
And im rolling with it
Never worried by the troubles of company
Sometimes it sparks
sometimes it doesnt
But im happy theres no dreaming of you and me

[Bridge]

[Chorus]

So i pushed you to one side
And i finally got you out of my life
Now ive opened my eyes
Then i see you again
And that looks still in your eyes
Yeah you blew my mind
But you know it wasnt real

[Chorus]

You and I we were one
And i swore Id stay forever
But they say all good things come to an end- my friend
Now its time to move on
But dont think that this is easy
Cos its hard to be leaving you behind
But you will be fine

[Chorus:]
Oh so if you believe
Say a prayer for me
I wont be here tomorrow
Somewhere I gotta be
Things you want to say
Save them for another day
Cos i can hear the angels calling
Angels calling for me

Does it help if i say
That im really truly sorry
And that I never meant for it to end- this way
Theres a place in your heart
Where you know you'll always find me
and I'll be with you wherever you are
Near or far

[Chorus x2]

you and I, we were one
And i swore Id stay forever
But they say all good things come to an end - my friend

Wanna bes and gonnas be
is this the day that youre gonna seize
Or maybe just sit around waiting for that call
Time is cheap but it aint free
Let another day just fall through me
Winding up staring at the wall

[Bridge:]
Feel the motion, cos your head is spinning like a top
Taste the ocean, cos the flavours there in every drop

[Chorus:]
You told me that all of your angels and demons
are constantly kicking and fighting and screaming
Theres no light, and theres no sound,
Bet you wanna drag the sunrise down
You tell me it feels like you're running in circles
And all the time they keep raising the hurdles
Out of sight, and under ground
Youre dreaming youre gonna drag the sunrise down

You know the light can hypnotise
So shut it out and close your eyes
Youre paranoid, cant avoid, living in denial
You curse the sun it fills the sky,
Spiralling down as it passes by
Dreaming and schemin and sinkin in the night

[Bridge]

[Chorus]

Time is on your side
You hide behind the tainted smile
But its there deeo in your eyes
Drop the blade and look inside
Only you can find the light

[Chorus]
