when you get loaded you get so close to the truth but further and further away from your dreams

no more phoney phone calls no more lies of passion do people stay together to make themselves happy

i wish i could be happy i wish i could be holy but these are idle dreams

free of deceit and bound by the truth better leave the light on and keep the bed warm

sorry doesn't pay the bills when ashes are spread to the sea write to me from hell fire all about your inner peace

'cause when you get loaded you get so close to the truth but further and further away from your dreams but so so close so very close so so close to mine

i want to be the one to say that all my mistakes were ok and i want to be the one to say that i want back what i did not want to stay

so many times we were so relieved every single time that we failed to conceive of any little thing that might get in our way

warm your eyes up with tears and ascend the cold cold stares i want love and trust to appeal but i was born down here in the minefields

so many times i said i loved you so many times you knew it wasn't true so many times so many times
