[tears for fears lyrics @tfflyrics]

you're happy dying you don't wanna change
remove your fix and you feel your pain

[tears for fears lyrics @tfflyrics]

young enough
to play the game
old enough to know
it's all or nothing

[tears for fears lyrics @tfflyrics]

hand in hand we'll do and die
listening to the band that made us cry

[tears for fears lyrics @tfflyrics]

when you don't give me love, you gave me pale shelter
you don't give me love, you give me cold hands
and i can't operate on this failure
when all i want to be is
completely in command

[tears for fears lyrics @tfflyrics]

here behind the wall
i feel so small

[tears for fears lyrics @tfflyrics]

these things
that i've
been told
can rearrange
my world
my doubt

[tears for fears lyrics @tfflyrics]

it's a world gone crazy
keeps woman in chains

[tears for fears lyrics @tfflyrics]

30 days september, year of miracle and grief
through the haze, remember
you're an animal, not a mineral

[tears for fears lyrics @tfflyrics]

lies beneath the visions and daydreams
fooled by now, we mystify the past
like a dream, like it never happened
when life begins with needles and pins
it ends with swords and knives

[tears for fears lyrics @tfflyrics]

bring to me my big old sweater
nothing more will make me better

[tears for fears lyrics @tfflyrics]

these days it's all in the mind
it's elemental
don't say you're up when you're down
it's elemental

[tears for fears lyrics @tfflyrics]

i can't stand this indecision
married with a lack of vision
everybody wants to rule the world

[tears for fears lyrics @tfflyrics]

it's not that you're not good enough
it's just that we can make you better
given that you pay the price
we can keep you young and tender

[tears for fears lyrics @tfflyrics]

break it down again
so those are my dreams
and these are my eyes
stand tall like a man
headstrong like a horse

[tears for fears lyrics @tfflyrics]

when in love with a blind man
you watch what you say
and you watch yourself burn

[tears for fears lyrics @tfflyrics]

i knew all of this was coming
ain't that odd
some things come out of nothing
as with god
not my intention to amuse
or confuse

[tears for fears lyrics @tfflyrics]

high time, we made a stand
and shook up the views of the common man
the love train rides from coast to coast
dj's the man we love the most

[tears for fears lyrics @tfflyrics]

well i feel deep in your heart there are wounds time can't heal
and i feel somebody somewhere is trying to breathe
well you know what i mean

[tears for fears lyrics @tfflyrics]

advice for the young at heart
soon we will be older
when we gonna make it work?

[tears for fears lyrics @tfflyrics]

shout
shout
let it all out
these are the things i can do without
come on
i'm talking to you
come on
