"Guilty In The First Degree"
VERSE 1 -
I knew from the start, that it wasn't right
but I kept on pushing ahead into the night I was scared to admit my mistake, because I knew what was at stake and now that it's happened, I can see that I went much too far and that makes me Guilty, yes VERSE 2 - Now has it always been this way where relationships are just complex games and the rules for you and me, they seem way out of reach We start out with chess and then we move on to dice we go for the long shot without ever thinking twice if poker's the game I better get out while I still can and that makes me CHORUS - Guilty in the first degree guilty in the first degree guilty............ of running away BRIDGE - Now my years are going on twenty nine and I know that's not a long long time but it's long enough to see a little of what's going on There's a war that's raging inside my heart a desire to finish before I start anxiety has been tearing me apart VERSE 3 - I've written songs that said that I would run to you but I did not mean myself I've written songs that said I would die for you but I'm speaking of somebody else And that somebody else is much stronger than me and that somebody else is inside of me and that somebody else asked me never again to leave oh, but somehow I've ended up (CHORUS) © Frazier Riddell 1990 ©  |
