LYRICS:
So this is part of the story.
Without any blaze of glory.
Sometimes the rough side turns up
But that's the way it is, life's still a bit naughty.
You should keep that in mind!
Not all friendly faces do still look quite friendly behind.
So be careful with sharing your secrets!
Once copied, gone for all time.
Our ego won't let us participate.
It's supposed to take it all and equilibrate.
May you won't agree with me on this point
But it's no question of fate!
Not all are as fair as they seem
And when you tell them to come clean
Maybe one of your best friends
Could turn out to be a fierce enemy.
So muc for snakes in the grass.
Cut it and you'll see clearly through glass.
Most times we ignore the akward signs
And hope that they will pass.
Fetch your guitar and we'll be happy.
All singing, all dancing, all flashy.
But when you return it and leave the stage
Won't it feel kind of trappy?
I know behind my back.
They're already making plans
On replacing my talent
Or, at least, shifting down my stance.
I'm not the one pointing at you.
But I think I've seen it through.
We're about to run the risk of
Losing something we shouldn't lose.
Whenever I'm about to get too close to the edge
I need something to hold on, I need something to hold on.
Coz it's too dark around me and I need to watch my step.
I need something to hold on, I need something to hold on.
I'm not a saint, that's just for the record.
Can't prevent it, at least, I make an effort.
But with all these misleading tempations
I'm sure it won't get any better.
People say this could well develop
Into a sort of paranoia but I can't help it.
It's just the fact of having been let down
A couple of times by people being selfish.
Maybe that's the reason I'm not keen on
Chatting 'bout private things or personal freedom
With complete strangers, that could later become frineds,
The first time I meet them.
Don't get me wrong!
I don't want to appear arrogant all along.
No matter the differences bewtween us
Basically, we're listening to the same song.
I didn't use to be liked by many people.
Life is parallels, but still unequal.
Read the glyphs and then tell me:
What dou you think could be the proper sequel.
Is this how you treat friends or enemies?
Tell me straight like the Dead Kennedys!
Intoxicated relationships.
Someone help me find a remedy!
They say 'in vino veritas'.
Maybe only drunk people words are those you can trust?
But I don't want to paint too black.
If it's really that bad we need to adjust.
This is about more occurences to come.
When it's all over will it be done?
They feel comfortable with what they expect.
If they want to hear lies... Tell 'em some!
Whenever I'm about to get too close to the edge
I need something to hold on, I need something to hold on.
Coz it's too dark around me and I need to watch my step.
I need something to hold on, I need something to hold on.
