Suffer no more
My sweet sophomore
Be my wise fool
And I will go back to school
To learn how to cry
Suffer it so
To be this way
There are things I cannot change
Like prophecy and destiny
The writings on the wall
For you
You and I
Teardrops of goodbye
You and I
Suffer no more
My sweet sophomore
Be my wise fool
And I will break all the rules
Child I'm the fool
Stay with me
Till I awake
Leave me not alone
My heart is rent
The night far spent
And worlds are torn apart
For you
You and I
Teardrops of goodbye
You and I
Teardrops of goodbye
The heart is given and forgiven
So it goes
You have loved and been loved
God only knows
What was given and forgiven
To hold you in my...
Suffer no more
My sweet sophomore
Be my wise fool
And I will go back to school
To learn how to cry

House On The Hill

In my house on the hill
I can see the whole world from a distance
I can go there alone and escape all my woes in an instant
I can dance and can sing rhyme recite lines like a poet
Record every verse and realise my Wordsworth and not know it
Count every grain of the sand of the sea
Name every star in the burst galaxy
Watching as worlds explode into view
Think often of you lover of my life
In my house on the hill
I can see the whole world in a moment
I watch ignorance shrill rage bored unfulfilled in its foment
I hear messages left unpondered bereft in torment
Cast over the side where complexity slides in a torrent
Count every grain of the sand of the sea
Name every star in the burst galaxy
Watching as worlds explode into view
Think often of you lover of my life
From my house on the hill
I can see a light shine in the distance
Gaze over the earth entropy of my birth and not miss it
Die knowing more than vanities war that's illicit
Yet look not back upon with an ache or a song and remiss it
Count every grain of the sand of the sea
Name every star in the burst galaxy
Watching as worlds explode into view
Think often of you lover of my life

Look Behind
05:09
|

There's not a place I can go
A place I can stay
Where I would belong
Where I could remain
To hide from what I now know
From what I now see
An echoing silence
Would betray me
Where will I run
Where will I hide
Where will I run
Over mountains and sea
Forest and dale
Tempestuous winds
Filling my sail
The guilty will run
But the guilty can't hide
The guilty will always
Always
Look behind
For your love I am guilty
For your I am blind
For your love I am filthy
Devoid of my mind
Lost like a sinner
Without regret
A lone bastard child
With none to beget
Where will I run
Soon when this all is over
Either lost or won
We'll worship Jehovah
Reveal what we've done
Look upon love
With nowhere to hide
Devil may care
But the Devil will die
