Do you remember 

Those hazy amber days 

We were but children 

Having the time of our lives 

We had no regard, no respect 

A floor was a bed 

And a bed held the mysteries of life 



They had to end 

But so soon? 

And to sit in the dark 

Of my lonely room 

Made it all seem so cruelly real 

Say no goodbyes, no regrets 

For the things that we said 

How we said 

That we only wanted an answer 

To our dreams 

We wanted an answer to our dreams 



Ignorance is bliss 

When adulthood we can resist 

To embrace the years with grace 

What a waste 

What a waste 



The fun we had 

The fun we'll have 

Reckless immaturity 

For stars we are 

And stars we'll be 

Just you and me 

For stars we are 

And stars we'll be 

Just you and me  









    



I'm trying to wash the taste away 

I'm trying to wash the taste away 

Trying not to cry the night away 

Trying not to cry the night away 

I'm finding a bitter word to say 

And I'm finding it easier every day 



Contempt 

Every day it fills me 

Contempt 

Every day it kills me 

Contempt 

Every tear that blinds me 

Contempt 

Building up inside me 



One kiss and the poison melts away 

One smile and the poison melts away 

I'm trying not to cry the nights away 

I'm trying not to cry the nights away 

I'm finding a bitter word to say 

And I'm finding it easier every day 



Contempt 

Every day it fills me 

Contempt 

Every day it kills me 

Contempt 

Every tear that blinds me 

Contempt 

Building up inside me 



You came crawling out the woodwork 

Like some ghost from my past 

With stories 'bout me 

That I'd long since forgot 

Telling me tales of how big you are now 

But I know you as nothing 

As nothing you got 

You'd split me wide open 

And spill all my beans 

Because you think 

That I still think 

Something of you 

You'd run away with everything 

That I have 

Take all my soul, sense and dignity too 



Loving is the saddest game to play 

Loving is the saddest game to play 

I'm trying not to cry the nights away 

I'm trying not to cry the nights away 

I'm finding a bitter word to say 

And I'm finding it easier every day 



Contempt 

Every day it fills me 

Contempt 

Every day it kills me 

Contempt 

Every tear that blinds me 

Contempt 

Building up inside me
