Melody Maker

Melody maker, why did she
Take my heart up to the skies
Only to break me
The world it, it keeps spinning
But I'm, I'm not with it
I'm all alone
Oh, melody maker
Will you, send me line, or lend me
Some of your time so that I can see
A land with these broken wings
And if you need me
Remember not to call
Did you deceive me
With your back against the wall?
Do you believe me?
All I have is love
Why did you deceive me? Ha!
Just another brick in the the wall
Yeah yeah
Too young to remember and
Too hard to forget, you know
I live my life
On the end of your cigarette
The past is gone
But let's not forget you had me caught
Down the sky before you let me in
You never really let me in
So next time you need me
Remember not to call
And did you deceive me with your back against the wall?
Do you believe me?
All I have is love for you
Why did you deceive me? Ha!
Just another brick in the wall
