Breach

Wallflowers Breach Lyrics
1.Sleepwalker

Maybe I could be the one they adore
That could be my reputation
It's where I'm from that lets them think I'm a whore
I'm an educated virgin

Sleepwalker, don't be shy
Now don't open your eyes tonight
You'll be the one that defends my life
While I'm dead asleep dreamin'

Cupid, don't draw back your bow
Sam Cooke didn't know what I know
I'll never be your valentine
The sleepwalker in me
And God only know that I've tried

Let me in, let me drown or learn how to swim
Just don't leave me at the window
I could be the one to be your next best friend
You may need someone to hold you

Sleepwalker, take this knife
You may see someone tonight
You'd be the one that saves my life
When I'm dead asleep dreamin'

Cupid, don't draw back your bow
Sam Cooke didn't know what I know
I'll never be your valentine
The sleepwalker in me
And God only know that I've tried

I'm in your movie and everyone looks sad
But I can hear you, your voice, the laughtrack
But you never saw my best scene
The one where I sleep
Sleepwalk into your dreams

Now, sleepwalker, what's my line
It's only a matter of time
Until I learn to open up my eyes
When I'm dead asleep dreamin'

Cupid, don't draw back your bow
Sam Cooke didn't know what I know
I'll never be your valentine
The sleepwalker in me

Now, the sleepwalker in me
Now, the sleepwalker in me
And God only know that I've tried


2.Letters From The Wasteland

Now coming down
Out of this swandive to your arms
I make no sounds
When I move thru your reservoirs
I wake up quick
I wake up sick
As you abandon me
Into these fields of rank and file
Thru this cloud I hear you breathing
Thru these bars I watch them bring more in

Now I send back letters from the wasteland home
Last slowdance to this romance on my own
May take two to tango, but boy it takes one to let go
It just takes one to let go

Now boy keep still
Don't spread yourself around
Get back in line
Eat your bread
And just work the ground

'cause you're not through
They're not done with with you
Did you think you were
The only one who's been let down
So sleep tight little boys of the new dam
Let them drop in the quicksand

Now I send back letters from the wasteland home
Last slowdance to this romance on my own
May take two to tango, but boy it takes one to let go

Now another bad idea gets thru
Down they send me unto you
Every bridge I should have burned
Every lesson i've unlearned
When the smoke give way to ruins
Incarcerated lovesick fools
I wait for you to cut me loose
But until then

Now I send back letters from the wasteland home
Last slowdance to this romance on my own
May take two to tango, but boy it takes one to let go
Now I send back letters from the wasteland home
From where I slowdance to this romance on my own


3.Hand Me Down

Whatever I know too much
You won't be anyone
Now tell me what you are thinking of
How could think you'd be enough
It's not that you've stayed too long
It's not that you've done something wrong
It's not your fault
But you embarrass yourself

Hand me down
It's better when you're not around
You feel good
And you look like you should
But you will never make us proud

You've been used by a army of cues
You've been touched by the lips of a queen
Now we've all made good use of you
But you won't be needed again
So don't you move and let someone else in
Make some room for a new harlequin
It's never enough
So don't disappoint us again

Hand me down
It's better when you're not around
You feel good
And you look like you should
But you won't ever make us proud

Hand me down
It's better when you're not around
You feel good
And you look like you should
But you could never make us proud
Hand me down

So look at you with your worn out shoes
Livin' proof evolution's through
We're stuck with you
This revolution's due

Hand me down
It's better when you're not around
You feel good
And you look like you should
But you could never make us proud

Hand me down
It's better when you're not around
You feel good
And you look like you should
But you won't ever make us proud

5.I've Been Delivered


6.Witness

I'm standing outside your window, baby
And there you are
Another year, another candle's burning
For the party girl
No one even knows that you're there
Happy Birthday, no one cares
You come around here
You'd better bring a witness
Everyone in here's on the guest list
And when you're gone you won't be missed
Keep one eye open
When you kiss
Your wishes won't be coming true this year
Now darling don't you cry
We're going to teach you everything
You'll learn to get by
Now lesson number one in homicide
Is emotional murder is no crime
You come around here
You'd better bring a witness
Everyone in here's on the guest list
And when you're gone you won't be missed
Keep one eye open
When you kiss
Now sticks and stones, baby, break your bones
But the names, in here, can kill
We'd let you leave
But no one else wants you
Your ransom was not made
Now you ain't got to stand up tall
But now baby, you must stand up
You come around here
You'd better bring a witness
Everyone in here's on the guest list
Now we've never been so impressed
Keep one eye open when, whenever you kiss


7.Some Flowers Bloom Dead

We didn't make it we did not pull through
You shouldn't blame me I don't blame you
Now what else did you think that I would do?
Ooh as if it wasn't hard enough

I'm so tired of waking up feeling bad
You haven't been the kind of place I have
Could it hurt you now to let this pass?
Ooh as if it wasn't hard enough

You want to make it so much harder
Now in another world I could learn to forget
But 'til then I'm here making room for new regrets
Now some flowers they never bloom
And some flowers just bloom dead

The way you make me feel I could collapse
An epidemic I cannot outlast
Now how could you feel used when I feel trapped?
Ooh as if it wasn't hard enough

And just as my conscience starts to clear
I drag the river and you're still there
The way I bring you down could not compare
Ooh as if it wasn't hard enough

You want to make it so much harder
Now in another world I could learn to forget
But 'til then I'm here making room for new regrets
Now some flowers they never bloom
But some flowers just bloom dead
Now some flowers they never bloom
And some flowers just bloom dead

The way I sleep this bed just can't be made
I pull the covers up around my head
Now when I think of me I think of somebody else instead
As if it wasn't hard enough

You're gonna make it so much harder
Now in another world I could learn to forget
But 'til then I'm here making room for new regrets
Now some flowers they never bloom
And some flowers just bloom dead
Now some flowers they never bloom
And some flowers they just bloom dead


8.Mourning Train

Lyrics:Jakob Dylan

Well, Momma don't ya' send me no love this month
My heart is all used up
And Mamma I wanna come home
I wanna get back home

CHORUS:
So look out into the morning rain
'Cause I'm on, ooh, the mourning train

I'm bringing down my suitcase, now
And I'm shining up my good shoes brown
'Cause no one knows my name
No one knows my name


And mister, you can't hurt me now
You got my girl, I still don't know how
But it don't matter now
No, it don't matter now.
