The Hoosiers

I need a second opinion
I want you cross examined
Where there's a will, there's a way
And there's a will, alright

I close my eyes and count to ten
And when I open them again
I want you to pretend that
When you said no, you didn't say a word
'Cause it's easier

Oh, we're lovers in my head
Lovers in my soul
Disregard what you said
So close your eyes and watch the stars glow

I like the face that is hanging
From your pretty little head
I like the way that it's body
Lies on my bed

I've not met him but he's handsome
I'm sure you made the perfect choice
I got to tell you I love you
But I lost my voice and couldn't say a word
'Cause it's easier

We're lovers in my head
Oh, lovers in my soul
Disregard what you said
So close your eyes and watch the stars glow

We're lovers in my head
We're lovers in my soul
Oh, we're lovers, yes, we're lovers

Love flew away
Love flew away from me
Love flew away
Love flew away

Oh, we're lovers in my head
We're lovers in my soul
Disregard what you said
Close your eyes and watch the stars glow

We're lovers in my head
Oh, we're lovers in my soul
Disregard what you said
So close your eyes and watch the stars glow, oh

So close your eyes and watch the stars glow, oh
So close your eyes and watch the stars glow, oh
So close your eyes and watch the stars glow

We're lovers, yeah, we're lovers

In the morning
I could take the burning sun
I could be your early warning
But I'm not the only one
So forgive me,
'Cause it's more than I can bear
You demand I make my mind up
I decided not to care
Stop giving me choices
Stop giving me choices
I'm the victim, of this day and age
I've forgotten how to feel
I've forgotten how to change
So I surrender,
To the apple of my eye
I surrender to the wind,
I will let the wind decide
Stop giving me choices (woo oo)
Stop giving me choices

Stop giving me choices
I could fake it,
I could break it till it hurts
I could take whatever words you say,
Pretend I never heard
So forgive me,
Shouldn't be so hard,
It's the way I'm put together,
So you're never getting past
Can't we talk this through

How does it feel
To spit out sunny skies?
And do you believe it's for real?
That you've always got it right?
When the words you had explode,
And you swallow them up whole,
No you gotta let go let go,
You'll love it when you let go let go let go.
It's gonna be a bumpy ride
But it sure beats standing still.
I know we can work it out,
And I've no doubt that we will.
When it hurts more than it shows,
It's not the easiest of roads.
No it's never black and white,
And you can keep your happy life.
When the words to that affect.
Have no effect on you at all,
But you gotta let go let go,
You'll love it when you let go
Let go let go.
If only you could let go,
You'd love it if you let go.
If only you could let go,
If only you could let go let go let go.

I don't know why,
You love me like you do,
It's not like am special,
Special like you,
Open your eyes,
She's just been reading lines,
But she's ever so convincing
'won't to believe her this time,

Who said anything about falling in love,
Lost my mind when I surrendered
Everything to find your in love,
This is my mistake cuz
Who said anything about falling in love
In love, in love.

Some one like you,
Was made to be enjoyed
But it won't b by me,
And that leaves me terrified
Am coming to terms,
And no it didn't mean a thing to ya
Didn't mean a thing but it,
Meant quit a lot, to me,
Meant to much I can't see

Who said anything about falling in love,
Lost my mind when I surrendered
Everything to find your in love,
This is my mistake cuz
Who said anything about falling in love
In love, in love.

I know I know

That your just being kind
But it's giving me a false hope,

I know I know
That I only need a little
Just a little bit of false hope,

I know I know
That am only seeing what I want ta,
(whooaahhh)

Who said anything about falling in love,
Lost my mind when I surrendered
Everything to find your in love,
This is my mistake,

Cuz who said anything about falling in love,
Lost my mind when I surrendered
Everything to find your in love,
This is my mistake, cuz

Who said anything about falling in love,
Lost my mind when I surrendered
Everything to find your in love,
This is my mistake,

Who said anything about falling in love,
This is my mistake,

Who said anything about falling in love.

Only love, only love will save us now
Only love will talk me down

You're my unlikely hero
I tried so hard but you won't surrender
I want you to know

I like everybody
But not everybody likes me, oh whoa
My love's not an island
It's the tip of a volcano, oh whoa

I'm alive, I'm alive but only just
I'm alive, no one to trust

Oh, you're my unlikely hero
I tried so hard but you won't surrender
I want you to know

I like everybody
But not everybody likes me, oh whoa
My love's not an island
It's the tip of a volcano, oh whoa

Everybody talks
No one hears
Everybody talks

Unlikely hero
I tried so hard but you won't surrender
I want you to know, oh, oh

I like everybody
But not everybody likes me, oh whoa
My love's not an island
It's the tip of a volcano, oh whoa

Only love, only love, oh, only

Put up your barricades
There's money to be made
Continue your charade
Money to be made
What you're asking for means the world to me
You draw close as you whisper precisely
Precisely
Your safety is assured,
Behind those eggshell walls
Of yours
You're safety is assured,
Behind those eggshell walls
Of yours
Friends and family fly by on wings of faith
Faithlessly I don't recognise a face
Not a single face
Take this sorry soul
Made enough of a mess on my own
On my own
Put up your barricades
There's money to be made

I want to live by the sea,
Live by the ocean.
I did my best to fit in,
But I outstayed my welcome.
I change my name and my friends,
Run till the land ends,
But I'm always waiting for me
No matter how hard I pretend.
Somewhere I can be free,
So big it's swallowing me,
Along with everything I used to be.
Dive in before I explode,
Where armies are swallowed.
Some many monsters in you,
Some many monsters in you,
Some many monsters in you,
So many ...
For once in you lifetime will you
Do what you want, not what you have to?
I want to live by the sea,
Live by the ocean.
Though i start over again,
I'll never change where I come from.
Loss of my momentum,
Set me in motion,
My heart and soul were for free,
But nobody would take them.
For once in your lifetime will you
Do what you want, not what you have to?
Follow me only if you want to,
But do what you want, not what you have to.
Tear it down and start over again.

All alone I fought the cause
Up against the clock that started me
It's the life anonymous
Trusted with the lives of all of us

I failed to see the flaws in the details I adored
And played God, I played God, played God

Science lay its heavy head
On my cold shoulder of consequence
[Incomprehensible] dared not tread
Forced the hand of nature's accidents

Failed to see the flaws in the details I adorn
And played God, I played God

Said, oh, my God, the devil's in the detail
No, Lord, I just didn't look there
We looked so long, we looked so hard
Looked so long, we looked so hard

Said, oh, my God, the devil's in the detail
Oh Lord, I just didn't look there
We looked so long, we looked so hard
We looked so hard and for so long

Said, oh, my God, the devil's in the detail
Oh God, I'm pretty sure we looked there
I tried so hard, for so long
I tried so hard and for so long

Said, oh, the devil's in the details
The devil's in the details, oh

Take your sharp, sharp scissor-hands
And cut me some slack
And I'll spin you in wool,
And pull it over your eyes,
Because I'm charming.
Take a long, long look at me
And give me light,
Cos the flame has expired,
It tired of my many flaws
And went up in smoke.
I can make you feel better,
I can make you feel much, much better than,
I can make you feel better than this, this, this, this.
Glorious.
Make me feel glorious
Once more.
And I won't let you down.
Glorious.
Make me feel glorious
Once more.
Time will only tell.
Take that sharp, sharp tongue of yours
And cut me in two,
I'll attack from both sides
And hide under your skin,
Because I need you.
Don't make me cry, it's bad enough
I made it hell for all of us.
What's it like being glorious?
Glorious.
Can I please be glorious
Like you?
Time will only tell.

Meet me tonight by the mulberry lake
I got two legs that they said they'd brake
Such a silly thing to do
Fall in love with you

Don't be scared
I got plans of my own
We may be born here but this isn't our home
Such a simple thing to do
Run away with you

They say they'll come for me tonight
They say they'll come for me tonight
They say they'll come for me and none of them will comfort me
Unless we leave this town tonight

We're better together, you and I, we were meant forever
Don't get hurt, but I'm serious
You and I, we were made to measure

Don't know how but they're onto us
My lips were sealed, who betrayed my trust
Such a silly thing to do
Fall in love with you

I see stars and there's a pain in my chest
I fell harder you said baby knows best
My God what were you thinking of
We're cut from the same cloth

They say they'll come for me tonight
They say they'll come for me tonight
They say they'll come for me and none of them will comfort me
Unless we plan our escape tonight

We're better together, you and I, we were meant forever
Don't get hurt, but I'm serious
You and I, we were made to measure

We were made to measure
We were made to measure

If you like I'll tear the sky in two
The broken moonlight will squeeze from view
I'd say we're falling from the very prospect of me and you

I'm taking back this town tonight
I'm taking back this town tonight
I'm taking back this town nothing good comes without a fight
Nothing good comes without a fight
Nothing good comes without a fight
But we will make ourselves tonight

We're better together, you and I, we were meant forever
Don't get hurt, but I'm serious
You and I, we were made to measure
Together, you and I, we were made to measure
I'm serious, you and I we were made to measure

We were made to measure
We were made to measure

You and I we were made to measure

Monday left in the morning, and the week flew by.
You took your leave without warning, not even a reason why.
Your lips about to be tongue tied, are you loud and clear?
Now I'm telling you that I want you, yeah.
So now it's b-b-bye b-b-baby won't you giddy up?
(Woahohoh) before my love runs cold.
And if you make me wait I'll give you up.(ohohoh)
Cause your loves on hold
You told me I should be patient, that I should bide my time.
(Bide my time)
How far does it take you no?
So now it's b-b-bye b-b-baby won't you giddy up?
(Woahohoh) before my love runs cold.
And if you make me wait I'll give you up.(ohohoh)
Cause your loves on hold b-b-baby won't you giddy up?
(ohohoh) Before my love runs cold.
And if you make me wait I'll give you up.(ohohoh)
Cause your loves on hold, your loves on hold,
your loves on hold.
But you won't be told.
Baby won't you giddy up? (ohohoh) Before my love runs cold.
And if you make me wait I'll give you up. (woahohoh)
Cause your loves on hold.
B-b-baby won't you giddy up? (ohohoh)
Before my love runs cold.
And if you make me wait I'll give you up. (woahohoh)
Cause your loves on hold.
B-b-b-baby won't you giddy up?
B-b-b-baby won't you giddy up?
And if you make me wait I'll give you up.
Give you up, give you up
(Ohohohohaoh)
B-b-b-baby won't you giddy up?
And if you make me wait I'll give you up, give you up.

We were the lucky few.
A luck we soon outgrew,
And now instead we drift again.
How I miss Sarajevo.
Oh we were lost at sea,
A pause for thought, the we
Slip beneath the foam and fall
Down to the seabed.
Good times die young,
For the Faraway Kids on the run.
Nowhere to hide.
The Faraway Kids.
The Faraway Kids.
At night, my soul sets sail
In minute detail.
When I wake, I cry. For I
I have lost Sarajevo.
Oh, the charges lacked all proof,
And failed to light the fuse
For the Little Brutes,
But I forsook Sarajevo.
Good times die young,
For the Faraway Kids on the run.
Nowhere to hide.
I can't outrun
The terrible things I have done.
I can't outrun
The Faraway Kids.
The Faraway Kids.

They caught wind of the weak and tied him to a tree today
Paul's father says they're pests destine to just be strays
They broke his little back with a little game they played
Boys will be boys, isn't that what grown-ups say
I just stood there, silent, rooted to the spot
Marveling, how brave I'm not
How brave I'm not
Don't you see it's already too late for them
Where are men of action, can't they do something
The sun was growing faint and slipping from God's hand
The day refused to wait and rushed to bury its head into the sand
If I could only get up, stand up for myself
I have to join the Little Brutes, sadly I'm not bulletproof
