can′t cease the river from running to the sea I can′t cease the thunder from shouting so angrily I don′t have the power to gather the seven seas When I can′t cease the fire inside of me
Painted like a tattoo Forbidden like a taboo This feeling I can′t undo I don′t know if you feel it too
Painted like a tattoo Forbidden like a taboo The feeling I have for you Can′t stop it if I wanted to
I can′t fight the fever from burning secretly I can′t fright the hour from going without asking me I know not to shatter this desire easily Cause I can′t fight the fire inside of me
Painted like a tattoo Forbidden like a taboo This feeling I can′t undo I don′t know if you feel it too
Painted like a tattoo Forbidden like a taboo My love is waiting for you What am I supposed to do
Painted like a tattoo Forbidden like a taboo The feeling I have for you Can′t stop it if I wanted to
Just like a war against nature To never dream of you ever Wish I had the power to try
[Verse 1] Lonely days and lonely nights are waiting for me But I gotta leave From the day rise up until the night falls down I′m losin myself, so I can′t stay around
[Hook] I′m still the girl that you met, you called me perfect But now you′re changin′ I′m not good enough anymore So I did it for us, I wanted to keep your love You tried to mold me And I thought that I would please you more
[Chorus] You want me to be what you want me to be But you can′t Paint me over, you tried to paint me over I tried my best to be your everything But you can′t Paint me over, you tried to paint me over
Oh Ohhh
[Verse 2] I close my eyes and memorize the girl that I was Before there was us Hard to remember, it′s been so long since she′s been around I gave up myself, and still I let you down
[Hook] I′m still the girl that you met, you called me perfect But now you′re changin′ I′m not good enough anymore So I did it for us, I wanted to keep your love You tried to mold me And I thought that I would please you more
[Chorus] You want me to be what you want me to be But you can′t Paint me over, you tried to paint me over I tried my best to be your everything But you can′t Paint me over, you tried to paint me over
Oh Ohh
[Bridge] I must have fought for your heart If it was mine from the start Your love′s conditional Mine I let you have for free You had a price to your love, and gladly I gave it up And now there′s nothing left Because I let you change all of me
[Chorus] You want me to be what you want me to be But you can′t Paint me over, you tried to paint me over I tried my best to be your everything But you can′t Paint me over, you tried to paint me over
The world you painted was new The colors were so alive Took a lie and made it true A final touch and then right into the painting you dive
It′s ok if you break You′ll see colors again This is more than you can take You′ll see colors again It′s your life that′s at stake You′ll see colors again Don′t you think it′s my time, anytime soon
Whenever did it all happen That one color after another seems to fade Now the sky is carved with a coalpen It′s all gray despite the effort you made
How do you like your God now Now that he is you Does he feel dead somehow And where does that leave you
Strange maze, what is this place? I hear voices over my shoulders. Nothing′s making sense at all. Wonder, why do we race? And every day we′re running in circles. Such a funny way to fall. Try to open up my eyes I′m hopin′ for the chance to make it alright.
When I wake up The dream isn′t done I wanna see your face and know I made it home. If nothing is true What more can I do? I am still painting flowers for you. Woah...
Throw my cards, give you my heart. Wish we could start all over. Nothing′s making sense at all. Try to open up my eyes, I′m hopin′ for a chance to make it alright.
When I wake up The dream isn′t done I wanna see your face and know I made it home. If nothing is true What more can I do? I am still painting flowers for you. I am still painting flowers for you.
(I heard everything you said. I don′t wanna lose my head.)
When I wake up The dream isn′t done I wanna see your face and know I made it home. If nothing is true What more can I do? I am still painting flowers for you. I am still painting flowers for you. I am still painting flowers for you.
We take a walk in the garden We share the fruits of life We lie beneath this canopy Why did we take that bite? We cover up our shame We walk in black and white We turn this ground for hunger Why did we take that bite? Paint me with an endless sunrise Paint me Paint me, open my eyes Paint me with the color of love You took a walk on the planet You gave us shade and light You create mood and substance How can I take a bite? Paint me with an endless sunrise Paint me Paint me, open my eyes Paint me with the color of love Paint me, mark me up, in these frail, dot-to-dot lines Color me from one red stream from which all others flow Take my black and white and yellow brown and pink and pain and sorrow Take my black and white and yellow brown and pink and hate and sorrow Paint me with an endless sunrise Paint me Paint me, open my eyes Paint me with the color of love
I′ve got a hot chilly feeling I don′t understand. I′ve got to run through this minute like a hurricane. I′ve got to tighten my wire from the sense to the soul. I find my back to the wall when it′s time to go. I′ve got to know is that your heartbeat?
Paint... me right. Can you feel the heat in me tonight? Oh I, I′m the pearl... Paint your love all over my world.
I get a love shock/electric from the touch of your hand. I′m getting lost in the riddles of the modern man. I′ve got it up down all around tied to the bone. Hey there′s a strange situation on the late nite show. I′ve got to know is that your heartbeat?
Paint... me right. Can you feel the heat in me tonight? Oh I, I′m the pearl... Paint your love all over my world. Do it right, I can feel the woman in me tonight. Oh I, I′m the pearl... Paint your love all over my world.
I wake up and look upon your painted eyelids The world is your oyster And the trash bags are your kids The ceiling is invisible There′s a bird sinking′ through the sky And every hour that passes Is teaching me how to cry Cuz it′s lonely here In the ugly part of town The buildings are all vacant And the telephones are down
There′s a police siren singing Like a tiger with no skin The sewer drain is glowing And I don′t know what state I′m in And the river is on fire There′s chemicals and debris And all the roads are blocked off Cuz they′re just too hard to see So cancel my appointments And set up a whole new show Cuz I′m in need of a good hot meal And a life to call my own
So get me a plate of money And get me a blanket and a chair The limitations are limitless They′re floating through the air Because it′s real and it′s true The things I see in you And there′s nothing I wouldn′t talk about You′re the clearest dream
I like to bless myself While I play with all the pieces that protect my energies Get it out to the outside Give it out from the inside It′s so fun to be by myself With no one here but me
So far No me protestes I don′t give a fuck what you think No More, No me investiges The fascists are getting the lead
So you think that you know me Got it all figured out Well I might be dead in your eyes But I′m still alive and I will never wanna follow anyone else
I serenade myself And I′m pulling on the pieces That deflect my enemies Give it all from the inside Get it all on the outside I like to be by myself With no one here but me
So far No me protestes I don′t give a fuck what you think No more, No me investiges The fascists are getting the lead
So you think that you know me Got it all figured out Well I might be dead in your eyes But I′m still alive and I will never wanna follow anything else
So you think that you know me Got it all figured out Well I might be dead in your eyes But I′m still alive and I will never wanna follow anyone else So you think that you know me Got it all figured out Well I might be dead in your eyes But I′m still alive and I will never wanna follow anyone else
What if I told you there is no tomorrow What if you watch me walk away by tomorrow
So I had to fight do I have to feel before I understand who I am So get away from myself, I need to get away From my hatred who′s standing next to me
Time is now, surrounded by shadows, a place with colors of darkness Time is now, our final hour, close to insanity
What if I told you there is no tomorrow, if I told you I just can′t hold on What if you watched me walk away by tomorrow If I told you tomorrow will be gone The shadows surrounds me everywhere
I am everything I need, what is this place thoughts Coming to me because of who I was Before I see myself in the mirror I really understood what I´m made of
Time is now, surrounded by shadows, a place with colors of darkness Time is now, my fire has burned, close to insanity
What if I told you there is no tomorrow, if I told you I just can′t hold on What if you watched me walk away by tomorrow If I told you, you are still calling me, calling me Painting my life in red, calling me, calling me All that I wish for is fading away
What if I told you What if I told you there is no tomorrow If I told you I just can′t hold on What if you watched me walk away by tomorrow If I told you tomorrow will be gone What if I told you there is no tomorrow If I told you I just can′t hold on What if you watched me walk away by tomorrow If I told you tomorrow will be gone
