Lyrics
Turn The Tide
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
A perfect life, a timeless machine
A wordless sound but what does it mean?
A silly phrase in a song
You know the job is easily done
Oh but what can you hide
When there's nothing inside
If all you do is count and expect
Then real life must be hard to accept
You're trying hard not to show
You gave in and you think we don't know
We've got eyes we can see
This is no way to be
If ever I had to be the man
Who won a war by losing his friends
I'd rather lose all I had
Then take everything I could get
And being left alone
No one to carry me home
Down, going down
You think that it's day but it's night
Look at you now
Your face is a terrible sight
In a state like this it's time to turn the tide
Won't you let me get you through and turn the tide?
