Twists And Turns
אשד מלק מילים ולחן: אשד מלק What a quiet afternoon for a walk through the park It’s not looking’ too sunny but it’s still not too dark Dogs bark and leaves fly and babies cry See, everybody’s got to die but not right now There’s still time before the day ends There’s still time to make some new friends And drink a cup of coffee and listen to that song Even though you’re super smart and you knew all along How this was going to end but still it’s nice to pretend The game’s tough, and people can’t seem to get enough Of whatever it is that they want so bad They won’t even stop or turn their heads To see something pretty or mourn something dead Instead they lie in bed, well fed and poorly entertained By clowns, cowards, liars and slaves Eloquently, graciously digging graves Make up - on, lights - on, all good intentions gone You know you deserve better but something went wrong Twists and turns burses and burns And scars to remind you fought the good fight You bled, and lost, and had your doubts But you know in the end it was right Did we meet too soon or maybe too late? I really can’t tell after all we just met 30 minutes ago or 30 years was that day? Anyway, I have only this moment and the decision to stay Or the one to leave hoping I still got some tricks up my sleeve So which will it be? Does it really matter? Do you think I’m writing this so you can grow fatter? So you can chatter about how my writing’s got better? This is not your lab and am not your rat I’ve had enough of your shit so fuck you and fuck that Twists and turns burses and burns And scars to remind you fought the good fight You bled, and lost, and had your doubts But you know in the end it was right They’ll crown you, command you, they cheer and they boo They say the future held all kinds of promises for you But it must have let go because you didn’t get through Because dreams don’t come true – So I guess reality will have to do You didn’t want to be a slave nor a master But we change all too fast and forget even faster Who we are, who we were and what happened in between Where we’ve been, what we’ve seen |
