Don't Take My Kindness For Weakness
Screaming comatose with blackboard chalk
Siphoned minds suck a wallet full of love
Spitting out a language I don't wanna talk
Mother of the free she said that we'd breathe
Mother of the free but we just scream
To me the coronation's another auto-da-fe
Taught in schools to see her as a glorious being
I don't see happy homes but the Belfast wall
In Walkman sounds hear Sony control
Mother of the free she said that we'd breathe
Mother of the free but we just scream
Mother of the free she said
That's the Way It Goes
Love passed us by
Before the chance was asked to take
We had to hide behind the vows we couldn't break
More than just friends
But to others we were innocent
We pretend we didn't stop what had to end
Could have been you
But you came around to late
Could have been some good times
We couldn't change the course of fate
Got no remedy
Got no cure
Stop these memories
Cause I can't take no more
We realized too late
That's the way it goes
A love that couldn't wait
That's the way it goes
My loss and your mistake
That's the way it goes
This final twist of fate
That's the way it goes
Missin' you more than ever
That's the way it goes
That's the way it goes
Memories last forever
That's the way it goes
That's the way it goes
Doubts through my mind
Question everything I do
Not satisifed 'til all I think about is you
Though strapped in tight
But would give soley to me
Not mine until you're here to set them free
Could have been you
But you came around to late
Could have been some good times
We couldn't change the course of fate
Got no remedy
Got no cure
Stop these memories
Cause I can't take no more
I realized too late
That's the way it goes
A love that couldn't wait
That's the way it goes
My loss and your mistake
That's the way it goes
This final twist of fate
That's the way it goes
Missin' you more than ever
That's the way it goes
That's the way it goes
Memories last forever
That's the way it goes
That's the way it goes
We realized too late
That's the way it goes
A love that couldn't wait
That's the way it goes
My loss and your mistake
That's the way it goes
This final twist of fate
That's the way it goes
Missin' you more than ever
That's the way it goes
That's the way it goes
Memories last forever
That's the way it goes
That's the way it goes
