Lyrics

Thrown Away



This car will never make it if you don't slow down

And there is always more police around a boarder town

you cannot search for what you don't crave

and what ice has carved, man's just paved



I wasn't asleep, this wasn't a dream

I can't explain, but I know what it means

I knew what I'd done, I'd planned it that way

Nothing got lost, it got thrown away



See the effigies I made of a younger us

with real sweat, real hair and real blood

raised on a pyre so the world could see

what looked like you and what looked like me

Arm in arm, heart in heart

that only time and flames could part

Weak flesh, weak hearts, weeks and years

unsteady hands, un-listening ears



This wasn't a dream, I wasn't asleep

The visions you gave, were not mine to keep

You'd seen I'd done, but had little to say

Except nothing got lost, you've thrown it away



What the mind corrupts, the lips betray

some lies you live you never say

the vows of the bride, the jokes on the groom

virtues proven, guilt's assumed.



I had fallen asleep, I wasn't afraid

Though I was alone, I dreamed that you'd stayed

You acted the parts, directed the play

nothing got lost, we'd thrown it away
