A Thorn For Every Heart : It's Hard to Move You

Lyrics


1. IT'S HARD TO MOVE YOU

Let's just assume that you're always right,
But you still want to put up a fight.
Turn your back and walk away,
Cause there's nothing left for me to say.
And all and all you're barely getting by.
You're never satisfied.
Open your ears and shut your eyes (shut your eyes).

It's hard to move you when you're dead inside.
There's nothingness in your eyes.
I can't impress you when you're not alive.
Why do we even try?

All and all you never use your mind.
And you're following the blind.
Open your eyes and see the light (open and see the light).

It's hard to move you when you're dead inside.
There's nothingness in your eyes.
I can't impress you when you're not alive.
Why do we even try?

I've always known it's hard to move the ones that don't believe in dreams.
I try my hardest just to reach you but you still don't feel a thing.
And all of the empathy inside this world, you know it's killing me.
I've always known it's hard to move the ones that don't believe in dreams.
You don't believe in anything.

You don't feel a thing at all.
(It's hard to move you.)
You don't feel a thing at all.
(It's hard to move you.)

I've always known it's hard to move the ones that don't believe in dreams.
I try my hardest just to reach you but you still don't feel a thing.
And all of the empathy inside this world, you know it's killing me.
I've always known it's hard to move the ones that don't believe in dreams.
I've always known it's hard to move the ones that don't believe in dreams.
I try my hardest just to reach you but you still don't feel a thing.
And all of the empathy inside this world, you know it's killing me.
I've always known it's hard to move the ones that don't believe in dreams.


2. WORTHLESS

There are times in our lives
When we just cannot compromise
Can't take advice
But can deny
All of the things wrong in our lives
Need a reason for a new dream
When it seems like dawn won't come
Search for answers within the darkness
When it seems that there are none

I'm not coming home
There's nothing left there at all
Now I take this on my own

(We're part)
Of the bridges that we've crossed
(Forget)
All the loved ones that we've lost
(Scream out)
Till your lungs fill up with blood
Shut up and wait for the breakdown

Eyes closed
But what's the big deal?
Now darkness swallows me alive
Don't know what's the matter
Who cares cause it doesn't seem to matter now

I'm not coming home
(We are worthless we are lost)
There's nothing left there at all
Now I take this on my own
(We are reckless, we are young)

(We're part)
Of the bridges that we've crossed
(Forget)
Of the loved ones that we've lost
(Scream out)
Till your lungs fill up with blood
Shut up and wait for the breakdown

(We're part)
Of the bridges that we've crossed
(Forget)
Of the loved ones that we've lost
(Scream out)
Till your lungs fill up with blood
Shut up and wait for the breakdown, now

If I can't sleep tonight,
I'm gonna have to toss and turn
And go wandering through my mind
For everything I'll never find
And now I'm somewhere in between
Safe from the obscene
And I just want to make you all believe

We are worthless, we are numb
We are reckless, we are young
We are everything you aren't
We are worthless, we are lost
[x4]


3. YOU'RE THE ONE

Life's a circle and it spins me around.
A broken record always making the same sound.
Target time I get my hopes up just to find I only get let down.
Like a season that refuses to change.
A stubborn winter growing colder every day.
Give me something that can warm me up again.
I swear to let it in.

You're my something.
You are my everything.
You're the one that makes me feel alive.
You end my suffering.
You end my misery.
You're the one that makes me feel alive.

You can run, you can run, you can run away.
I would find you and convince you to stay.
You the one who, who can warm me up again.
I swear to let you in.
You can run, you can run, you can run away.
I would find you and convince you to stay.
You the one who, who can warm me up again.
I swear to let you in.

Like an ocean I just keep making waves.
You are my vessel with an anchor that will never stray
You're the one who, who can wake me up again.
I swear to let you in.

You're my something.
You are my everything.
You're the one that makes me feel alive.
You end my suffering.
You end my misery.
You're the one that makes me feel alive.

You can run, you can run, you can run away.
I would find you and convince you to stay.
You the one who, who can warm me up again.
I swear to let you in.
You can run, you can run, you can run away.
I would find you and convince you to stay.
You the one who, who can warm me up again.
I swear to let you in.


4. OBJECT OF NO DESIRE

Let the music get into you,
Feel the rhythm as it starts to fill you.
Do you want to? do you want to burn up?
Press your hips against mine.
We're making sparks and they're bound to ignite flames,
To keep us warm forever.
Don't stop, cause it's now or never.
We fight the feeling, but we just surrender,
To the things we fear the most in life.
Close your eyes and fall in love again.
Hold your breath and fall in love again.

Spinning around, we're going down but up in flames tonight,
My bleeding heart can't put this out.
And I didn't want to fall apart again,
Sweetheart before you lose me, tell me you love me truly.

I've always known that it's hard to move you,
I'd give my life for the words to soothe you.
Still they end up trapped behind my lips.
Oh baby, how you leave me tongue tied.
You've got me wishing I could stay the whole night,
I'm afraid to fall in love with you.

Spinning around, we're going down but up in flames tonight,
My bleeding heart can't put this out.
And I didn't want to fall apart again,
Sweetheart before you lose me, tell me you love me truly.

We all need a reason to just let go.
We wait for a moment that might not show.
Always looking ahead instead of looking around.
Always looking for something that's already found.
Sweetheart before you lose me, tell me you love me truly.

Spinning around, we're going down but up in flames tonight,
My bleeding heart can't put this out.
And I didn't want to fall apart again,
Set me up to break my heart again.

I didn't wanna fall, didn't wanna fall.
I didn't wanna fall in love again.
I didn't wanna fall, didn't wanna fall.
I didn't wanna fall in love again.

Sweetheart before you lose me, tell me you love me truly.
Sweetheart before you lose me, tell me you love me truly.


5. NO MORE YOU

I can tell by your last five phone calls,
That you're going to raise hell with me tonight.
Same old stupid conversation,
Another perfect evening ruined by a jealous fight.
I never want to hear your voice because to me it's only noise.
I hope you stay away.

I can tell by the voice mails I've received,
Something's going on you're trying to blame it all on me.
I know we're sleeping up in your bed,
I tore her pictures down and burned the shit to cut our sweat.
I never want to hear your voice because to me it's only noise.
I hope you stay away.

When the radio plays this song,
I hope you can't help but sing along.
When the radio plays this song,
I hope you can't help but sing along.

You should know that the love you've wasted,
It isn't coming back you'll never find a love like me.
You'll never get me out of your head.
I wrote this song for you and named it so you can't forget.
I never want to hear your voice because to me it's only noise.
I hope you stay away.

When the radio plays this song,
I hope you can't help but sing along.
When the radio plays this song,
I hope you can't help but sing along.

Now we say goodbye.
Now we say goodbye.
But you never showed it, you never showed it.
No intention, you never noticed,
How you really made me feel inside.
Now it isn't worth remembering.
I think it's time to forget.

When the radio plays this song,
I hope you can't help but sing along.
When the radio plays this song,
I hope you can't help but sing along.


6. VOICES

(I just cracked and I've never felt better.
Don't call me crazy.
Until now I've seen new things I've never seen.)

The memories of you have built up to be true, coming down now.
(They're coming down, they're coming down.)
And all of the rules that all I ever use are gone.
(And now they're gone, and now they're gone.)

Try being around be in my mind a while,
You'll find I'm much more different than you.
I hear voices this world has never known.
See the brilliant colors.
Try stepping outside of yourself,
See the world through eyes of someone else.
Let go of the world you used to know.
See the brilliant colors.

I just cracked and I've never felt better.
Don't call me crazy.
Until now I've seen new things I've never seen before
These days we count how far to listen to it:
The voice inside my head.
The voice inside my head.
I've left myself without a good way out again.

Every hour doesn't even matter.
Everything I did is now gone.
Freak out, I was destined for right now.
I'm wound out and don't know I'm bound to say.
Every minute never seems to finish.
A second I'm holding this off.
Won't stop, I'm stuck in the moment,
I want out and that's not nearly enough.

I just cracked and I've never felt better.
Don't call me crazy.
Until now I've seen new things I've never seen before.
I just cracked and I've never felt better.
Don't call me crazy.
Until now I've seen new things I've never seen before.

Staring at a white room, taking lots of medicine.
The doctor tells me that I'm sick because I'm never listening.
I don't know how things got this way.
I'm settled in now so I might as well stay.
Trapped in a straightjacket, serious as a heart attack.
The nurses bring me sedatives so I can finally relax.
Don't know how things got this way.
I'm settled in now so I might as well stay.

(I just cracked and I've never felt better.
Don't call me crazy until now.
I just cracked and I've never felt better.
Don't call me crazy until now.)


7. SOUNDS AND SILENCE

Sirens racing, heading northbound on the freeway.
Tragedy has happened early in the morning today.
Best friend, my best friend's gone for sure.
I'm never gonna get him back.
I spent a lifetime trying, trying to be someone.
Trying to get things right,
Now I'll never get to show you.

Never forget him, we'll never.
He'll never be gone.
Never forget him, we'll never.
He'll never be gone.
(He fell and he hit the ground)
Never even made a sound, never even made a sound.

Pacing and waiting in this empty hospital.
Dying in wait, he desperately clings for life.
Suddenly, I'm facing the fear that I've wasted time.
(Hold on, don't let go yet.)
(Not now, it's not your time.)
My best friend, my best friend's gone for sure.
I'm never gonna get him back.

Is this really happening to us now?
I believe it is.
Just please forgive me.
Don't forget me.
Is this really happening to us now?
I believe it is.
Just please forgive me.
Don't forget me.

Tell me doctor, we've got a heart beat.
Tell me doctor, we've found a pulse now.
Tell me doctor, we've got a heart beat.
Tell me doctor, we've found a pulse now.
Now the heartbeat's gone, now the heartbeat's gone.

(He fell and he hit the ground.)
Never even made a sound, never even made a sound.
Never forget him, we'll never.
He'll never be gone.
Never forget him, we'll never
He'll never be gone.
(He fell and he hit the ground.)
Never even made a sound, never gonna get him back.

Is this really happening to us now?
I believe it is.
Just please forgive me.
Is this really happening to us now?
I believe it is.
Just please forgive me.
Don't forget me.
Is this really happening to us now?
I believe it is.
Just please forgive me.
Don't forget me.


8. JUNE 11TH, 1980

It's been such a long time since I've seen your face,
And maybe I ignore the sound of your voice.
It's leaving me empty you try to forget me.
These days and chances are looking slim.
I tell "You look nice." you say I'm looking thin.
I say "I haven't been eating or really been sleeping.
Just breathing and thinking of you."

I'm coming clean tonight.
I'm going to tell you everything I've been holding inside.
But I'm only wasting time.
I don't want to let you go.

I see you in his arms I'm faking a smile.
I watch as you finish the drink in your hand.
Pretend to be happy until you look at me.
Now we remember again.
Right now you know I could use a drink
Or even better yet maybe two or three.
Because I've never been over the pain,
And it helps me forget and go on once again.

I'm coming clean tonight.
I'm going to tell you everything I've been keeping inside.
But I'm only wasting time.
I don't want to let you go.

Now I'm sleeping I can breathe.
This is now a dream.
Under the moonlight and in your arms,
Always forever 'till everything's just fine.
Under this street light and in your eyes,
Always forever 'till everything's just fine.

I'm coming clean tonight.
I'm going to tell you everything I've been keeping inside.
But I'm only wasting time.
I don't want to let you go.
That I outta let you know.


9. THE GAME

What are they gonna say when you just move along?
We'll get you out of here, just be strong,
(We'll get you, get you out.)
I thought I saw you today, I couldn't be wrong.
(Oh, and you have changed.)
You were caught between the lines and you couldn't get out.
It's been a few years since you left home.
Do you miss your residence?
Just keep on trying and you'll get out soon.
You'll get out soon.

I think you're doing much better but you say I fold.
You think you're oh so clever but you say I fold.
You say I fold.
Give up and give up and move on and move on,
With the rest, with the rest of your lonely life.

Have you selled yourself?
It's such a shame the way they use you up, destroy your name.
We'll get you out of here, just be strong.
Gonna bend the life you can't get out.

I think you're doing much better but you say I fold.
You think you're oh so clever but you say I fold.
You say I fold.
Give up and give up and move on and move on,
With the rest, with the rest of your lonely life.

I think you're doing much better but you say I fold.
You think you're oh so clever but you say I fold.
(Give up and give up and give up and give up)
You say I fold.
(And move on and move on)
You say I fold.
(With the rest, with the rest)
You say I fold.


10. TIME LAPSE PHOTOGRAPHY

Friends change, the faces will rearrange.
When will tomorrow be yesterday?
I know what I want to come next.
I don't know what I'm becoming.
A town grows and watch as they build it,
This happens brick by brick.
You can't tell how long it'll stand,
And if it falls will they rebuild it again?

The things that we know we've got to let them go.
Cause they'll grow sometimes too fast for us to realize.
Accept it. Accept this.

We miss these changes day by day,
They turn to dust and then blow away.
These aren't changes in our eyes,
It's only life that's passing by.

The world spins the same as a rose blooms,
It happens but it's invisible to you.
Nothing here can last forever,
Unless you always remember.
The leaves fall, the trees become bare again.
The fall ends and we start a new year,
And then no one knows what changes will come.
It's too slow, it's too subtle to notice one.
Accept it. Accept this.

We miss these changes day by day,
They turn to dust and then blow away.
These aren't changes in our eyes,
It's only life that's passing by.
Things will come and things will go,
When it ends we'll never know.
We'll live our lives and carry on,
Until it's over until it's gone.

The things that we know, we've got to let them go.
Cause they will grow sometimes too fast for us to realize.
Nothing here can last forever,
Unless you always remember.

We miss these changes day by day,
They turn to dust and then blow away.
These aren't changes in our eyes,
It's only life that's passing by.
Things will come and things will go,
When it ends we'll never know.
We'll live our lives and carry on,
Until it's over until it's gone.
