Dog's Eye View - DAISY (1997) by Dog's Eye View (보컬) on maniadb.com

If you say you need me, I will surely run away.
If you swear that you don't care--
You know I'll stay around until you do--then I'll leave.

I hate to admit it, but you know it's true.
Others may tell you differently
But they're lying to you, unless it's me, and then I've changed
And I will stay here until the bitter end

The trouble with love is that it gets to know you
The trouble with love is that it lifts you up and knocks you down
The trouble with love is that when you know you don't need it, it's gone, and then it's all you want.
That's the trouble with love

See that guy in the corner crying on his own shoulder?
Well, he should've let the doubt pass by his mouth before he said
"goodbye, this is the end",
Before he let her fly and then wanted her back again.

The trouble with love is that it gets to know you
The trouble with love is that it lifts you up and knocks you down
The trouble with love is that just when you know where you are
You're looking for a getaway car
That's the trouble with love

Love is blind, deaf, dumb and stupid.
If I ever find that little turd, I'm going to kill cupid
Once and for all, once and for all

The trouble with love is that it cuts right through you
The trouble with love is that it lifts you up and knocks you out
The trouble with love is that just when you're sure you've got it all figured out, then you know you don't know anything about love

That's the trouble with love

1,2,3, let me count the ways
4,5,6, let me count the days--since I thought about
7,8,9, let me count the years

Looking for a fight
Looking for a heart to break tonight
I hope it's mine
I hope it's mine
I hope it's mine

Halos and helicopters
Everything is over my head.
Thought they were coming to save me, but they just left me here for dead.

I hopped in an ambulance
Caught a ride back to my old hometown.
Got out at four corners,
And watched the crowd gather 'round.

For the homecoming parade
Where they called me a hero and asked me why i've changed
At the homecoming parade
They're killing off their favorite sons.

Angels and astronauts
Everyone is looking down at me.
I thought they were coming to help
But they're just falling out of the sky.

There's a laugh track, but no one's smiling.
Everyone is keeping their head down.
No one wants to make a scene in this small minded town
Where all the mothers drink 'til they drown.

At the homecoming parade
Where they call you a hero and then spike the lemonade.
At the homecoming parade--
They're killing off their favorite sons
And all their daughters are on the run

Heretics and hometown heroes
We all get treated the same.
They line us up to praise us
'til they turn the tv cameras off.

Then they line us up and interview us,
Then they line us up and accuse us,
Then they line us up and shoot us.

At the homecoming parade
Where they call you a hero as they tie you to the stake.
At the homecoming parade
They're killing off their favorite sons,
They've got all their daughters on the run.
They've been killing off their favorite sons for years
All their daughters are picking up their guns and getting out of here.

Wasted'
Time and money and hope
And fear of romance.
Sendin' out a letter
Sendin' out a sign that you
Don't wanna be here and be left behind
You made up your mind.
And when the wheels start spinning and the
Wind starts moving you around
You keep your eyes open boy,
Keep your ear to the ground'

Arrival'
Is nothing more than stoppin' for
A moment to catch your breath.
Before you get moving,
You better get your rest
Cuz you're ognna need your strength
When you take on the world.
The world takes you on.
And when the wheels start spinning and the
Wind starts moving you around.
You keep your ears open boy,
Keep your ear to the ground'

You're leaving, leaving, leaving'
Do you believe in, Anything?

Do do do do do'

Hopeless'
Hopeless to do more and say less and feel
More this time
I'm comin home for Christmas
I'm comin home cuz I don't wanna spend
Another New Year alone.
Cuz this one's just flown'
And when the wheels starts spinning and the
Wind is blowing you around.
You keep your eyes open
You keep your head down'

Do do do do do'

Hopeless
Nothing's really hopeless.
It's just a little wasted time.
I'm sending out this letter.
I hope it gets to you,
I'll see you soon.

I put my toes on the floor this morning
Just like every other.
For some reason, today, I was not scared.

I threw myself at the mercy of the wind.
I don't know where I'm going
But I know where I've been and I'm bored-- I think there must be more.

Falling in love again, give me a little grace
Falling seems to be what I do best
Everything is falling in place.

I've spent 21 years in mourning for someone I've never really been.
It's funny how everybody only sees what they want to see.

Danger comes in all shapes and sizes,
But I'm tired of looking for it.
If you spend your life avoiding surprises
Are you really living or just giving in?

Falling in love again, give me a little grace
Falling seems to be what I do most
Everything is falling in place.

I don't want to wake up one day and realize
What I was dreaming of was right in front of my shut eyes.
I don't want to stop saying hello, for fear of saying goodbye.

Falling in love again, give me a little grace
Falling seems to be what I do best
Everything is falling
In place.

Feathered, crowned and forgotten,
Raised up, let down.
It's been so long since we were anything
Why don't we let it lie?

I feel like I'm dying here, but I don't know what I need.
It's killing me to be here, and it would kill me to leave.

Feathered, crowned and forgotten,
Raised up, then let down.
It's been so long since we were anything
Why don't we let it lie?

If I don't save you now, who's going to save you?
If I don't hold you down, who's going to hold you?

Feathered, crowned and forgotten,
Raised up and let down.
It's been so long since we were anything
Why don't we let it lie?

You and i are like a picture of a train;
It's never moving, but we know it's supposed to be
So we try to believe -- please believe-- that I tried.

Feathered, drowned and forgotten.
I know I raised you up, I never meant to shoot you down.
It's been so long since I felt anything,
Why don't we let it lie?
Please don't let me lie.
Why can't I let it die?

You, without saying anything, let it be known
That I, without doing anything, had thrown it all away.
Down the laundry chute, all the cute little words and melodies
Won't save me now--
Now that we've gone this far.

We've said goodbye--
Said goodbye
Goodbye to grace

I, was waiting for a witness
And you, were waiting for the door to open up
To set you free from this mess.
You turned your back
Said "you don't know anything about love".

You said goodbye--
Said goodbye
Said goodbye to grace

We, washed ourselves clean of all feeling.
We were feeling good,until we both got scare--
Of ourselves and of each-other.
We bailed out--
We don't live here anymore.

We said goodbye
Said goodbye
Said goodbye to grace

I wish there was a stranger
Sitting in this room.
Our eyes could meet each other's for the first time
Now it's just my family,
A bloodshot bride,
And a wasted groom.

Maybe there's an angel
Laughing at us now
Trying to tell us something that we should've learned.
We should have learned.

Are you listening to me now?

I used to have this dream you know,
But I let it slip away,
Traded it for something I knew I could have
But never really wanted.

Are you listening to me now?

I wish I could say something
Instead of sitting here numb.
I wish my mind, i wish my mind
Was not such a loaded gun.

I wish i was a stranger
Sitting in this room.
Our eyes could meet each other's for the first time
But now it's too late for all that.

I Hope you're happy out in glitter gulch
With your brand new friends
Who will shake you off like a dog
When they're bored with you.

I'm not bitter, just a little sad,
To be taken in
By a smile that swallows everything in its path--
Then spits it right back out again.

Hollywood whispered your name
And called you a genius.

Hope you're happy with your flame throwing tongue
That burns your face,
But pleases the crowd as they gather round,
And pay to watch you burn.

Hollywood, whispered your name
And called you a genius, and you believed us.

Show me something, that you think is real
Show me something that you still feel
Show me someone you didn't leave behind
When you lost yourself on the way to hollywood

I hope you're happy in this hole you've dug
Where the sun spins around
You and only you.
Don't you get a little scared sometimes that standing in all that light might show you for what you really are?

Hollywood, tell me who's going to save you?
I will not stand in line just to praise you.
I will not stick around to watch you go down
One more lost genius

Hollywood one, me zero
Hollywood won, I lost
Hollywood won, I lost you
Hollywood won, hollywood one, hollywood, hollywood won, hollywood won

If i raise my hands
Would save me or would you shoot me?
I don't know what i want, i just hope it's over quickly and i don't feel a thing.

I've been paralyzed by the crashing waves
And terrified by the sight of the sand.

Drowning in the shallows
Drowning in the shallows

If you see me on the surface,
Please hold me down until you're sure I've changed.

I've been so scared of feeling bad,
I don't feel anything these days.

These days,

I've been terrified by the sight of your face
I've been paralyzed by the touch of your hand.

Drowning in the shallows
Drowning in the shallows

I jumped in the water because the ground was killing me
But the deep blue sea just got me down.
I turned to head back for land, but i got scared at the sight of the sand, now I'm treading water, but i'm starting to drown.

Drowning in the shallows

Did you like the flowers I sent?
You could've called to thank me,
well you could've called.

I tried to kiss you
on Brooklyn Avenue,
but you got in your car, before I could move.

I've been falling like the rain,
but you've got your umbrella in my way.

Fists and fingers, tongues and teeth.
I want to see you, I'm tired of my dreams;
nights of wishing, I could open my mouth
and when I finally did speak, you were nowhere to be found.

I've been falling like the rain--
you've got your umbrella in my way

I had the sun in my hands
I had the sun in my hands
'til you said you liked the rain.
I had it all in my hands, I had it all
but I gave it all away.

Did I scare you off, by being honest?
how come we never see the end, 'til it's right there upon us?
If you want, I can go away,
but like the rain, I'll come again some other day.

I've been falling like the rain--
you've got your umbrella in my way again.
One of these days I'm going to show up in your sunshine
and be a little sunshower
fall upon you and make you rise up like a flower
and you can be my little daisy, be my daisy.
