Immense Tenderness

I once knew immense tenderness
But then our luck took over and your job took over and the life we never met overset you
I once knew immense tenderness but then the price took over and the rights took over and I only second guess why I met you
Oh the tales you used to tell
When you could tell the difference between heaven and hell
But now I'm tied up in a cell cause I'm your traitor
I once knew immense carelessness
But then our love took over and the shove took over and
the lushness of this life was buried deeper
I once knew your once sweet caress
But then the fight took over and the night took over and we
only realize that we're believers
Oh the tales you used to tell
When you could tell the difference between heaven and hell
But now I'm tied up in a cell cause I'm your traitor
Oh you bend it oh
And you gather your evidence
And you keep me on a constant defense
And now I just can't make amends cause I'm your traitor.
I'm your traitor ...
We make it up, we make it up, we make it up ...
I once knew immense tenderness
And I could reach your soul and we could lose control and I could feel your sattelite send the signal
Oh the tales you used to tell
When you could tell the difference between heaven and hell
But now I'm tied up in a cell cause I'm your traitor
Oh you bend it oh
And you gather your evidence
And you keep me on a constant defense
And now I just can't make amends cause I'm your traitor.
I'm your traitor ...
We make it up, we make it up, we make it up ...

I want it bad oh it’s not right
You’re asking me to cross a line
And in the burning of your laugh
I feel it drawing in the sand
Once we were young and I was old
But now the years have made you bold
It’s wrong it’s captive in my mind
Oh but I don’t wanna wait another night
You are so young
How could I be
There in that rush
Of us only
You are so young
Now that I see
There in your touch
How you want me
That little push you do it right
It’s bringing back my appetite
But I remember we were small
And I was standing quite as tall
You are so young
How could I be
There in that rush
Of us only
You are so young
Now that I see
There in your touch
How you want me
Inside of me…
You are so young
How could I be
There in that rush
Of us only
You are so young
Now that I see
There in your touch
How you want me

Blue is not the name that I gave you
Blue is the bright light in the northern sky
Blue is not the way that I blame you
Blue is just a name
Blue is just a name
Blue is just a name
Waking up all I found was a dream of you
The northern light streaming in my room
Only to find what I couldn't do
Was open up to thoughts of life with you
Blue is not a name, it's a breakthrough
Caught in the nick of time, only the truth will shine
Blue is not the way I escaped you
Blue
Blue
Blue
Cause these are places where we've lived and died
They will carry us away
It's all behind the mask that helped you suit the game you tried
Now there's no more time to play
Blue is not the name that I gave you
Blue is the bright light in the northern sky
Blue is not the way that I blame you
Blue is just a name
Blue is just a name
Blue is just a name

Thistle light you’ve been on my mind
And I’m trying to find where I left you
My back is up in the corner bunk
and you’re standing tough where I can’t get you
The fights are long and in the night
The battle’s on tween dark and light
We saw a red slit in the sky
Your anger inside
You say you want sweetness and light
But where’s the trust to reunite
You saw a red slit in the sky
Your anger inside
All I want’s like the ghost that haunts
In the shadow gaunt of our somewhere
We mine the past just to make it last
But the stone that’s cast leads to nowhere
I hope we’re slow to get it right
Can’t patch you up from every fight
You saw a red slit in the sky
Your anger inside
You say you want sweetness and light
But where’s the trust to reunite
You saw a red slit in the sky
Your anger inside
Could you ever get to sleep the night I left you?
Could you ever let me try to live it down?
Couldn’t you ever really find a moment that you’d
Ever let your feet lift off the ground?
The fights are long and in the night
The battle’s on tween dark and light
We saw a red slit in the sky
Your anger inside
You say you want sweetness and light
But where’s the trust to reunite
You saw the red slit in the sky
Your anger inside
I hope we’re slow to get it right
Can’t patch you up from every fight
You saw the red slit in the sky
Your anger inside
