The Playhouse (theater of life)
It was never my intention to load the dice
Easy livin, I was more than happy with my slice
It was you who pressed the start
It was you who exploded in my heart
Now that you�ve started performing your song
Read your heart, just the time was wrong
If love's in vain, how come it is so strong?
I can count so many different worlds
I can see so many different suns
As far as I know we have just one world
But you want to live in a different one
I see it's written in all the sparkles
It is the embossed lines showing on your palms
We're just thick to act this way
We belong in each others arms
If I �ve been hard on you I never chose to be
I never wanted anyone else
I tried my best to be somebody you'd be close to
Be together like we �re supposed to
here I am baby reaching out for you
Can�t stand hand in hand anymore
I'm like a wave that's got to roll into its shore
You and me go parallel together and apart
And you keep the perfect detachment, enough to tear my heart
Can you ever learn to read the distance?
You never tried to cross the line
Be careful, another dirty river and another dirty scar
And I don't know what have become of you
even if I feel where you are
So far from home I know you think of me
Only me can shelter you under my wings
But love you in ways that make you feel and leave you free
Who would have ever thought?
This was the way you had to drown
You stained yourself to make it good
And his was just an act of a clown
Learn to shed down the emptiness and the vanity
That�s what writes the comedies you act
They tell me that I�m what everybody knows
But I believe you can�t be the one to preach sanity
Nobody �s trying to bend the figures
It is the way you are creating it
That's the way you want your story goes
Think about it well before singing another serenade
Try to avoid singing the last love song that you made
You know it can�t be a success, He is already laughing at your back
You better find the street signs He has already left
you thought you could keep someone so far, a collar on his neck
You fell for circles of silver you fell for circles of gold
You fell for a pretty stranger and all the promises he said he hold
He promised you everything he promised you thick and thin
Now you can see real life it is no longer a movie scene
And you dream your dream but you know your dream can�t be real
Can you keep looking at me as just another deal?
I know he made doubts circling in your mind
And you feel that the only relief for you is to cry
You wished he told you �I'll love you till I die�
But the way he always acted
You should have realized that it was just another song
When you gonna realize that from the start it was something wrong
You know I ll never act as they do on TV
What I have scripted for you is more than real
Teach you how to write a love song like the way it�s meant to be
I can't do everything but I'd do anything for you
Can't do anything except be in love with you
And all I do is miss you and the way we can make it be
All I do is keep sleeping with the wrong girls
Just to kill time they are there to keep me company
All I do is kiss you through the clouds of fantasy
Remember this and be careful regarding remedy
the heart that you break
That's the one that you rely on
The bed that you make
That's the one you got to lie on
Where you point your finger �cos your plan fell through
You got three more fingers pointing back at you.
