Monday/Tuesday
I found your picture in a magazine
The way you look at me I know what it means.
I feel your power coming over me,
When I am near you I will make you see.
Our love is perfect, I know you'll agree
I think about you almost constantly.
Though you don't know me, I am sure you'll see-
We'll be together, it was meant to be...cause
Chorus:
Monday, Tuesday, everyday I think about it
Can't get you out of my mind.
There's no way that someday, we won't be together,
Someday I know you will find - that you are here with me.
When I found you I don't understand,
You acted like you didn't know our plans.
What did they tell you to confuse your mind?
It doesn't matter cause I know you're mine.
Our love is perfect, everyone will see
I think about you almost constantly
My blind obsession, I am sure you'll see
We'll be together, it was meant to be, cause...
Chorus:
I am here for you
There's nothing they can do,
To keep me from my prize...
I did the wrong thing today. I did it all the wrong way.
There is no hell to pay; I did not tell a soul.
If no one finds my mistake,
Then did I make a clean getaway?
Can I keep what I take - if no one ever knows?
Do you wanna believe me?
Can you trust me to tell?
Do you think I can keep your secrets,
When you know me so well?
Chorus
Yes, I am a liar - but I would not lie to you.
I'd throw myself on the fire, but I'd never lie to you.
I thought the wrong thing today. A devil on my shoulder told me
to.
There is no hell to pay, I did not tell a soul.
If I should tell you my mistake,
Then did I make a clean getaway?
Can I keep what I take if no one ever knows?
Do you wanna believe me?
Can you trust me to tell?
Do you think I can keep your secrets,
When you know me so well?
More - you burned me, that is so true.
I gave you all the opportunity.
And now - I question all that I thought I knew, What seemed so right, is turning
all around
Chorus
Why do I give myself to you?
Over and over.
Why do I keep believing you?
When you're a liar.
Now - I see you clearly, just what you are, But somehow it makes
no difference to me.
More - I know you're sly and slick and untrue, But still I want you so...the
words cannot reveal
Chorus
Why do I give myself to you?
Over and over.
This is a crazy thing to do -
I must discover.
Why do I give myself to you
Over and over?
Why do I keep believing you?
When you're a liar.
It's addiction, self-infliction
Never been more than science fiction -
When you're gone, my mind tells me it's good, but my mind's a stupid neighborhood
My pussy keeps talkin' - can't listen to it, Cause I'm sick to death of all
your shit Gonna take it to my heart - take it to my friends You are just no
good' this has got to end.
He doesn't know any better - Sets a fire in the yard,
Grabs a car parked on the corner -
Joyride to the boulevard.
There is a hole in his belly (there is a hole)
That a fix just cannot fill (cannot be filled)
And a lie can never cover,
it can't cover, it can never cover -
(chorus)
Screams, I am alone, I'm so alone, I am alone and
No one even knows I'm home, and no one cares.
I am alone, I'm so alone, I am alone
It doesn't matter what I do - what I have to do, no
He sees the boys on the telly -
Seems they never lose their cool,
And they never touch their bodies -
Never do the things he do.
There is a girl at the movies (there is a girl)
She doesn't know that he's alive (he's so alive)
She cannot feel his obsession,
she cannot feel it, cannot feel it -
Broken, darling, twisted, compelling.
Tortured, burning
I am turning and turning around,
Could it be? You know what's best...
Silent, yearning, yielding, resisting.
Playing, pretending
I am coming and going away - and I wanted to stay.
Could it be? You know what's best for me,
That I cannot say, how can I know
(I'd be guessing)
Could it be? How can I know...
(chorus)
I want to be - In your black world.
I'll be your dark angel, I'd lay with the devil for you.
In your black world
I'll be your dark angel, I'll lay with the devil for you.
Barely, breathing, touch me, heal me.
Open, not concealing
I am coming and going away - and I wanted to stay.
Could it be? You know what's best for me,
That I cannot say, how can I know
(I'd be guessing)
Could it be? How can I know...
Frozen eyes reveal the lies that lay within your soul, tearing
down the walls of honesty. Canvas covered miracles that tell
the way it is, show the world concealed reality,
Find me now..
Let me fly, let me fly, somewhere between the earth and sky.
Let me fly, let me fly, don't let your life pass you by.
Smile for now your vision can be seen a mile away, unsuspecting innocence the
prey.
Evil hides so many ways you'll never really know, the masquerade, disguise
ability.
Find me now..
(chorus)
The hope the fears and all the tears can't change the way it
is, canvas covered miracles are his.
If I were to embrace you - and all that you are,
Would there be words like music?
Or would we need to talk at all.
If I agreed to love you - and never find a fault,
Would you know just where
you're to end, and where I start?
Would you lose yourself baby?
And drown in my heart.
(chorus)
Could you be what I'm looking for
to open my soul;
Is the answer in your touch?
Is the answer in your touch?
If I were to embrace you - and all that you are,
Would you be like a dove, that lands on my heart?
Would you try to protect me - from everyone,
Would you believe me, baby,
Would you believe in me?
And open up your arms.
(chorus)
I've got so many questions, it seems
I just don't know
The secret to survival, in the days
that haven't happened yet,
The answer must be somewhere -
Is the answer in your touch?
Is the answer in your touch?
The world is sharp, it can make you be here now.
Picture my hand, it's a knife - it can hold you down.
I want to make your blue skies rain,
I want to make you be afraid.
Picture my mouth - it's cave
Come inside and you'll be safe...
(chorus)
Eliminate your mind.
Eliminate your mind.
The night is deep, it can make you want to drown.
Picture my sweat on your thighs -
I can hold you down
I want to make your daytime night,
I got to be your only light.
Picture my eyes - they're the moon,
You can reach the other side...
(chorus)
You say you want to change the world,
You forget about yourself.
Anything you want - you got it now.
The dream is real, it can hold you like a child.
Picture my face in your mind -
I can make you wild.
I want to be the thing you fear,
I want to make you disappear.
Picture my mouth - it's a cave,
Come inside and you'll be safe...
I saw a friend today, she didn't look so well.
The news is getting worse, someone is
always hurting someone else,
I look outside my window,
and it feels like rain again -
I wish I could be anywhere with you.
(chorus)
Baby, won't you come with me,
I'll show you things you've never seen.
I'll feed you Cristal and tangerines,
In a perfect world.
I get up out of bed to face another day.
There's people all around, something is
always getting in my way,
I try to change my feelings, but
the blues are here to stay -
I wish I could just run away with you
(chorus)
We could do anything at all -
take our love out on the street.
Watch the skyscrapers fall...at our feet...
