Gen

Oh we had some magic and used it all
There's a tinge of regret but not what you'd call real sorrow
Didn't think much, if at all
Whatever the cost we'll pay it all tomorrow

But I'd rather be damned than let you go
And I'd rather be damned 'cos I know

You've gotta get a good thing when you see it

We let our lives slip, just for a while
It took all we had but it made you smile too

And I'd rather be damned than let you go
And I'd rather be damned 'cos I know

You've gotta get a good thing when you see it

But I'd rather be damned than let you go
And I'd rather be damned 'cos I know

You've gotta get a good thing when you see it

This is the real world made wrong made right
Or maybe just made
You waste my time with explanations
So all the big colors fade

So you want to be happy
Don't you know happy is never enough

Looking for big answers getting nowhere
But then you're swimming in the shallow end
You take these broken bones
I'll tell you something, these things don't mend

So you want to be happy
Don't you know happy is never enough

I'm on the wrong train i can tell
'Cause I'm the only one who thinks so
Hard on the heels of getting somewhere
But there are things that we don't know

So you want to be happy
Don't you know happy is never enough

If I hold you to the light
Should I see right through you?
If I question what you are will it bring me any closer to you?

From Love to War
What we aim for is to keep the illusion
You can take your conscience for a lover
And satisfied there is no other
You can dream

Any doubts we had
Had better not show
What good would they do us
Leaving us nowhere to go?

From Love to War
What we aim for is to keep the illusion
Taking a stand for the benefit of man
And angry with pride because God is on our side

I could do with some sleep
'Cos the rubbish I talk is getting deep
And if I don't believe in you
Then there's nothing I can do
But throw myself at the walls
And love no-one at all

From Love to War
What we aim for is to keep the illusion
You can take your conscience for a lover
And satisfied there is no other
You can dream

There is a line between good and evil
That separates light from dark
But a colour now spells our end
And everywhere I see its mark, it's
Yellow Brown

In the city air, in all our seas
You can see every other colour bleed into
Yellow Brown

There is no time to spend
Concerned that this is just a trend
To lay the blame everywhere
When it's yours that is the lion's share of
Yellow Brown

And I won't do
'Cos you won't do
'Cos we know there's nothing they will do about
Yellow Brown

There's nothing to save us from ourselves
But the world keeps turning
The world keeps turning

My concentration never was what it might have been
And I know that I'm impatient but there isn't really time
To have all these ideas going through my mind
