Thought that you knew it all
well you've seen it ten times before.
i thought that you had it down
with both your feet on the ground.
i love slow...slow but deep.
feigned affections wash over me.
dream on my dear
and renounce temporal obligations.
dream on my dear
it's a sleep from which you may not awaken.
You build me up then you knock me down.
you play the fool while i play the clown.
we keep time to the beat of an old slave drum.
you raise my hopes then you raise the odds
you tell me that i dream too much
now i'm serving time in disillusionment.
I don't believe you anymore...i don't believe you.
I thought that i knew it all
i'd seen all the signs before.
i thought that you were the one
in darkness my heart was won.
You build me up then you knock me down.
you play the fool while i play the clown.
we keep time to the beat of an old slave drum.
you raise my hopes then you raise the odds
you tell me that i dream too much
now i'm serving time in a domestic graveyard.
I don't believe you anymore...i don't believe you.
Never let it be said i was untrue
i never found a home inside of you.
never let it be said i was untrue
i gave you all my time.
