ALLJOINES - water off a duck's back

alljoines - age is a high price to pay for maturity (EP 2006)

01. water off a duck's back

go back on faking I wanna see it eye to eye
direct my ears to only hear what’s really worth it
take action don’t let me down you know I’ll try
until the cows come home is a long time of waiting
I’ve been dying to tell you anything
I bite my lip and I want you to believe what I’ll be
saying giving up is the first and easiest way to play for safety
to compass, to shy away from getting over impediments,
since it’s become a reason to take all that’s left
just tempt, instead of hiding from yourself
I can’t understand that you would throw it all away
without a plan what it might mean for both of us today
just a feeling – stop thinking – conceiving
you’ll find a fault in every movie
don’t you think you have to fight for
luck – now standing face to face
we’re running for an answer,
answers to questions never asked
to be overstrained
is no reason to give up
it’s up to you,
but I’m not going home alone come on
then she screamed there’s no more word to say
it could just turn the same anyway
just like water off a duck’s back once again
slipping through our memories
fading out all the bad things
look how glad we used to be
remember the beginning
then she screamed there’s no more word to say
it could just turn the same anyway
just like water off a duck’s back over and over again
if you wanna waste it
then I can’t hold you back
but don’t you think we have to fight for
now standing face to face
we’re running for an answer,
answers to questions never asked
to be overstrained
is no reason to give up
it’s up to you,
but I’m not going home alone
so this is real
and it should be our answer,
the answer to the questions that we had
to be overstrained
is no reason to give up
It’s up to you,
but I’m not going home alone
