The Mess We're In - Wind In Sails

From the depths of Hell So far I fell A deal made with the Devil After all the dust had settled There's an hourglass of time Counting down all of the lies And with every grain of sand Time is slipping through my hands Oh, I sold my soul to rock and roll And I let my demons take control Redemption seems so far away This microphone is my escape Don't mess with ouija boards 'Cause now my spirit's torn I'm bound by fear of being trapped I'm falling faster, fade to black Something's standing in my way Hoping for better days I'm always searching For serenity And I'm always standing At the edge of reality, oh I spill my heart out on the stage The only way I feel okay And right before that curtain calls I just got one more thing to say Don't mess with ouija boards 'Cause now my spirit's torn I'm always searching For serenity And I'm always standing At the edge of reality, oh From the depths of Hell So far I fell A deal made with the Devil After all the dust had settled Look into my eyes You will see the light It burns so bright This flame will never die I speak the truth Immortalized my youth No other way Until my final day Oh, I feel the hate Welling up inside And it's too late Nowhere to run and hide Don't mess with ouija boards Don't mess with ouija boards I'm bound by fear of being trapped I'm falling faster, better days I'm always searching For serenity And I'm always standing At the edge of reality, oh I'm always searching For serenity And I'm always standing At the edge of reality, oh Don't mess with ouija boards, ouija boards Don't mess with ouija boards, ouija boards

How? How'd you know? How'd it show so soon? Held Held me down Held me 'round for so long I know this might seem a little less alright But here, I find a little place to hide Oh, what a mess I'm in Break Break my faith Break away from home Stay Stay the same Stay this way, alone I know this might seem a little less alright But here, I find a little place to hide Oh, what a mess I'm in Oh, what a mess I'm in What a mess I'm in What a mess, what a mess, what a mess I'm in I know this might seem a little less alright But here, I find a little place to hide Oh, what a mess I'm in What a mess I'm in What a mess I'm in What a mess, what a mess, what a mess I'm in

Wonder if the ground beneath our bodies Is the same we once adored We're passing on our stories like we're Losing all our breath for something more Learn from my mistakes and take your Patience with you when you fight the war 'Cause maybe we weren't meant to keep Ourselves awake until we know what for Leave me in my own skin in which I was, in which I was born In the wind, predestined, gone before the oceans wash ashore Don't you feel it darlin' when you sleep? 'Cause I'm not stopping 'til we're in the sea Can we call it motion if the only thing that's moving is our line? Drawn across the sand as if we're sifting and adjusting space and time 'Cause everything we know is just a story We've been told and keep repeating 'til we're tired But if we try, if we try Leave me in my own skin in which I was, in which I was born In the wind, predestined, gone before the oceans wash ashore Don't you feel it darlin' when you sleep? I'm not stopping 'til we're in the sea Don't you feel it darlin' when you sleep?

Baby, your making me want you. An baby, your making me love you. We're in the city, city. Making me want you. We're in the city, city. Making me love you, making me care. Do doo doo... do doo doo doo. Da da daa. da daa. da da. Baby, your making me want you. (want you.) An baby, your making me love you. (love you.) We're in the city, city, making me want you.

(Love you.) (Want you.) In the city your footsteps float in the air In the city at night There's no one else there In the city see all the old street lamps again In the city they took all the new ones away You wind down a window to let in some light Through the middle of glass and billboards at night And pausing to catch your breath in the rain In the city your home again Again. Do doo doo... do doo doo doo. Da daa daa. da daa. Do doo doo... do doo doo doo. Da daa daa. da daa. Da daa. Da daa.

Red sails in the sunset, way out on the sea Oh, carry my loved one, home safely to me She sailed at the dawning, all day I've been blue Red sails in the sunset, I'm trusting in you Swift wings you must borrow Make straight for the shore We marry tomorrow And she goes sailing, no more Red sails in the sunset, way out on the sea Oh, carry my loved one, home safely to me Swift wings, you must borrow Make straight for the shore We marry tomorrow And she goes sailing, no more Red sails in the sunset Way out on the sea (oh-wee-ooh, wee-ooh) Oh, carry my loved one Home safely to me

Sails are just like wings, you can fly from things Run before the wind, Lord, let it blow Let it rock me slow while I sleep below Dreaming dreams that only sailors know And it will soothe your mind, smooth away your lives Set your clock back on your own time If you sail with me, we will find the sea We will find our love over again
