East West Records (stylized as eastwest from 1990 to 2000) is an American record label, owned by Warner Music Group, and operates under WMG's Independent Label Group.
Upon its creation in 1955 by Atlantic Records, the label had one hit with The Kingsmen and went into hibernation until 1990, when Atlantic revamped the imprint as EastWest Records America. Atlantic senior VP Sylvia Rhone was appointed Chairman/CEO of the fledgling label.
Under Rhone's leadership, EastWest shot to mega success with several multiplatinum acts, such as: Simply Red, En Vogue, Pantera, Yo-Yo, Das EFX, Snow, Gerald Levert, AC/DC, Dream Theater, Missy Elliott and MC Lyte. EastWest also distributed other imprints, such as: Interscope Records, Motor Jams Records, Mecca Don Records and The Goldmind Inc.
In 1991, EastWest merged with its Atlantic sister label Atco Records, briefly calling itself “Atco/Eastwest Records.” In 1993, Atco's name was dropped and the company continued to operate under the EastWest name once more. Whilst in the United Kingdom, the brand was applied to many of the WEA artists such as Simply Red, Chris Rea and The Beloved.
And everybody will get to play
The hand they're given
And everybody will deserve
The space they live in
And everybody will get to feel
Some peace within
And everybody will get
Someone to talk with
Cause there must be a reason
Why you're keeping me alive
On broken days like this
There must be a reason
A hope that God exist
And everybody will lead a life
They feel will matter
And everybody will know such a simple thing
Like laughter
Cause there must be a reason
Why you're keeping me alive
On broken days like this
There must be a reason
A hope that God exist
After all the fear is gone
There's place where everybody goes
After all the feelings show
There's a secret everybody knows
After all the fear is gone
There's place where everybody goes
After all the feelings show
I just got to know,
What it is you see.
Is it something different?
Is it something sacred?
Throw away the outside,
Take away the fear,
I'll just wait here quietly.
(chorus)
Yet no matter,
What they do, never let them take what you have,
What they say, never gonna change who you are.
Try to hide the pain
Smiling on the outside,
Fighting desperation.
Is it something Deadly?
Anybody listening?
Anybody hear?
Show the world your brokenness.
(chorus)
Yet no matter,
What they do, never let them take what you have,
What they say, never gonna change who you are.
Faceless words, rush like wind
Guard my broken thoughts to heal,
Emotionless, to fields I fly,
Hey June, I can't believe
you going away again this fall.
Hey June I can't take much more of this at all
Cause life was meant to be so much more than you are...
Hey June, I didn't hear you come in late again last night
Hey June, I can't smell his cologne on you
Hey June, Are you gonna stay out late again tonight
Cause life was meant to be so much more than you are...
you are my everything
you are my everything
you, my everything
everything, everything, everything
its all because of you,
im never sad and blue.
you've brightened up my days,
in your own special way.
whenever you're around,
im never feelin' down,
you are my trusted friend,
on you i can depend
bridge:
you take me away,
from the pain and you bring me paradise
and when there were cloudy
days you brought sunshine in my life
it never occured to me
the first time i saw your face
i would fall so deep in love
that your love can't be replaced
chorus:
you are my everything (you are my everything)
love so good, so good only you can bring
you are my everything and everything is you
my darling only you
can make my dreams come true
and every night i pray
you'll never go away
i promise i will try
untill the day i die
to treat you like a king
coz you are my everything
bridge: chorus:
you are everything and everything is you
(repeat 4X's)
when you're lovin me
put your lovin arms around me
when you're lovin me
said i feel so safe i found security
when you're lovin me
forever i want you to hold me
my everything
my every, every, every, every, everything
chorus:
Hiding behind the walls that I've
fashioned here in hindsight, Keeping
up the mask of the lies that have
scarred my life tearing apart
my flesh, for my flesh I feel this killing spree
Now that you've gone and said it
boy, can't you keep from dealing
me, Talking about the other times,
thought that I'd set you free, Saving
the flesh to kill the spirit
Down, Down, finding my way around
Down, Down, turning my life around
All of my life I've tried to
get away from this, Talking
about the way that I can
sabotage my play, Now
I stand here, another
broken life come on boy,
get up or get real
Taking another look
at the reality I've made,
do I get up, to get up, or
do I crumble Learning to face
my fears, with God by my side come
on boy, get up or get down
Trying to keep this failure in my life
to a minimum doing it by myself
and the fear becomes a synonym
Trying to forget the reason for all
this pain come on boy get up or get real
Giving away this Hell that I began
to call my life starting to see an
ending to the frailty of strife
kneeling down fave first before the
I'll blame myself for not ignoring you
For guys like me, it's just brutal truth
No relationships without boundaries or snobby rules of credibility
If I had found you sooner, maybe you'd have found me saner
She dons a nice and sparkling red top
Figure hugging, soft to touch
Black and baggy trousers to facilitate
Whiping of records on her teenage sum
Breathing, bleeding
Chorus
I close my eyes and wonder why she's truly gone
We never fought, no harsh words, we got along
It's over, why don't you believe it?
It's hard enough
She's what I eat, she's what I breathe and sleep
My stupid lines, she hardly gives a hoot
Returned phonecalls? Idiotic noodge!
She's got me scattered, feel like a dipwad
Breathing, bleeding
Goddamn, I am a broken-hearted loser!
You're so unique, your bullet belts, your faded jeans, built-in mystique
Your sizzling smile is so complex, your nervous giggles echo away
It's over, why don't you believe it?
It's hard enough
You walk into your beautiful house
You stuff a steak in your beautiful mouth
You drive around in your big beautiful car
You blow your money on your beautiful hair
You think you're better cause you got more than me
You lose it all then who would you be
You're just a punk in a Mercedes Benz
You drive around to impress your friends
Taking me for a ride,
Your bellies phat and you're ready for slaughter
You're bowing down to the all mighty dollar
Here we go boom, boom, boom, again
I'm caught in my mind, somebody's
telling me I'm already dead, dead to
my flesh or dead to the spirit, if I
were alive then you'd think that
I'd hear it G. It's in his trickery, the lie
that he spreads full term in my head
bringing me down, making me boy
to this place that I dread.
Cause everytime I look in the mirror,
I see the reflection of the one that
I fear, turn my back on the love of my
life, here I stand now, just me and
my pride.
Somebody getting thru 2 u Better
be thinking twice, boy
I try to breathe, caught down ripped
asunder feeling the weight that I've
brought from this underworld, place
grown cold, tear my flesh, bring obedience
see this boy, I hope that you're getting this...
Walk the gauntlet of lies.
Who will it be today...
Secrets of this place,
never knowing...
Follow the ones that consume,
becoming just like them.
Fade away among the crowds, again.
And I can read the stains inside your mind,
remains of the beauty.
And I can hope for the silence of your words,
cause I know I'll be caught here...
And I could never really find the answers,
always locked inside of something so close.
And I could never really find the reasons,
just assumed it was you.
Pushed in a corner where screams die,
fighting to stay alive.
Cower down to be alone.
Nothing is worth this.
When is the right time to let it all go?
Not that it matters...but I fear,
I fear that someday
it'll find its way to you.
I could never really find the answers,
always locked inside of something so close.
I could never really find the reasons,
just assumed it was you.
I could never really find the answers,
always locked inside of something so close.
I could never really find the reasons,
just assumed it was you.
Only 21 with his whole life ahead of him,
Thinking about the friends he had,
Now that they're six feet under,
Paying the price for a blunder,
Can you feel his pain; it's crashing like thunder.
But he rolls on, the gun by his side,
The bullet in the chamber and the fear he can't hide,
Another punk sucker steps into the focus,
Making him disappear, with a little hocus-pocus.
Just another punk sucker from the boulevard farm.
Your mind is blind, and your eyes can't see.
My silence, bred violence as I sit here on the inside
Deceived, taking for granted the air that I breathed,
Names carved deep inside these time scared walls,
What's up boo?
All men betray, all lose heart.
I don't want to lose heart. I want to believe.
Won't you come away with me tonight?
We can fly past the moon and the starlight,
It doesn't matter where you've been before,
On a night like this,
It doesn't matter where you've been before,
I'll love you like this,
She cries...
Can't you see, I won't leave,
But you have to open your eyes.
Here I stand, Take my hand,
Let go of the fear that you hold.
Don't throw your pearls to the swine tonight,
Don't let them take your innocence,
Just remember the times that I held your hand and kept you close,
Remember the times I held you up and now.
She cries...
Can't you see, I won't leave,
But you have to open your eyes.
Here I stand, Take my hand,
Let go of the fear that you hold.
(Graham Gouldman)
East West over the ocean
Perpetual motion, travelling around
No rest, singing and playing
Night out and day in, doing the rounds
What a great life it must seem
(what a great life it must seem)
Swell joints, everything classy
Nothing that's pass? only the best
Lush girls ogling and eyeing
Crying and sighing, this is success
What a great life it must seem
(what a great life it must seem)
But when I hear young voices singing out
The bells at home come ringing out
When I think all alone
When I think of my home
Mom, Dad all round the fire
In festive attire, keeping the day
Aunts, kids, all the relations
Congratulations, this is success
What a great life it must seem
(what a great life it must seem)
But when I hear young voices singin' out
The bells at home come ringing out
When I feel all alone
What it is I often wonder,
Turning you away.
Listen to that still small voice,
Fade away.
You see only what you want to,
Close your eyes and sleep.
You hear only what you want to,
Clinging to your lies.
(Chorus)
You and I we see things different now
You and I we see things differently.
Close your mouth your words are stolen,
Heard them all before,
Speaking truths you've long forgotten,
Falling to the floor.
You see only what you want to,
Close your eyes and sleep.
You hear only what you want to,
Clinging to your lies.
(Chorus)
I can see everything now that you're so blinded,
I can see everything now thats it's all clear.
I can see everything now that you're so blinded,
I can see everything everything everything everything
Lost among the rind, the wastes of space,
The ones we hold so high...
Something's different here, maybe the air,
Maybe a different look; a smile.
... Your eyes are so...
Heard this once before, one who shined
Against the cold embrace.
Peel away the lies, the great facade.
Left with nothing more... than you.
... I know your eyes...
Where, where do you hide your wings?
Tell me...
Where, where do you hide your wings?
Lost inside this noise, so cold.
Every light is listening.
Open up your mouth, speak in truth.
Don't let it all, slip away...
The mirror it never lies, so know.
Blinded... we all become dead...
Where, where do you hide your wings?
Tell me...
Where, where do you hide your wings?
Show me...
Where, where do you hide your wings?
Tell me...
Kicked and stabbed along the way,
planning for the hour.
Revenge a method, one of many
to consummate the change.
Why, what could you ever gain?
Nothing it seems except being lame.
What, what could you ever lose?
Brutally wrong, it's all a game.
Moving forward, leaving something
requires the unsaid.
Be a man and let it all go,
abandoning your pride.
Why, what could you ever gain?
Nothing it seems except being lame.
What, what could you ever lose?
Brutally wrong, it's all a game. (x 2)
Now it's here,
time to choose.
You decide
what you'll become.
Why, what could you ever gain?
Nothing it seems except being lame.
What, what could you ever lose?
Head hurts
back here again, I
painted the walls,
the cracks remain, and
I fear,
to close my eyes,
become accustomed,
so dig in.
Every time,
I breathe this air,
the sick stench,
never seems to go away.
You fail,
You break,
You freak,
You falter,
You lie,
You kill,
You burn,
You're nothing...(x 2)
to me...
Head hurts
back here again, I
painted the walls,
the cracks remain, and
every time,
I breathe this air,
the sick stench,
it never seems to go away,
...go away . . .
You fail,
You break,
You freak,
You falter,
You lie,
You kill,
You burn,
You're nothing...(x 2)
I feel it changing,
the air... clean...
it's you...
You fail,
You break,
You freak,
You falter,
You lie,
You kill,
You burn,
Walking against the wind,
pushing the endless road,
where will we lay our heads?
Soothing to kiss her lips.
It's where we long to be,
Chaos and comfort are near.
We'll run together,
Facing the night.
Gripping the morning star,
Breathing a long relief,
watching the houses fade.
So now the lines are drawn,
and see the blood run cold,
what if the world stops spinning?
Don't walk away.
Nothing to say, just stay here with me,
we'll look back and laugh someday.
Don't run away,
Life's got its ways, of bringing you
down, kicking you in the teeth.
So give it all some time,
at least we have each other.
I know we'll dream.
Don't walk away.
Nothing to say, just stay here with me,
we'll look back and laugh someday.
Don't run away,
Life's got its ways, of bringing you
down, kicking you in the teeth.
So give it all some time,
at least we have each other.
I watched you fade away,
into a sea of taillights.
My eyes still strained to this day...
Evidence of who we were,
left here along the way.
I see the truth in the tree.
I'll free you, fall away.
I'll free you, fade away. (x 2)
The world just stopped its pull,
and I could almost hear you,
crying out through the noise...
The things I thought I knew,
so close to understanding.
But now I'm dumb to the wise.
I'll free you, fall away.
I'll free you, fade away. (x 2)
I see her, perfectly clothed in white... my eyes burn...
I'll free you, fall away.
The night bleeds day,
With every breath I take
Reality brings,
Bright eyes, smooth skin.
So what is left from this,
A bottle of broken self.
In a moment it'll all be gone,
Til the next time when it all comes back.
Come on,
Feed a lie,
Watch the birth,
Kiss the dirt.
Kiss it.
Next time has come and gone,
What will bring the end,
A promise thrown into the night,
Or a little reminder.
So what is left from this,
A bottle of broken self.
In a moment it'll all be gone,
Til the next time when it all comes back.
Feed a lie,
Watch the birth,
Kiss the dirt.
Kiss it.
Searching through these pieces,
Looking for your shadow.
Getting closer all the time.
Countless words,
In a sea of explanation,
Flailing to grasp,
A rock (to stand).
Shoulda let you go
Searching through these pieces,
Looking for your shadow.
Getting closer all the time.
Feed a lie,
Watch the birth.
When you have these blues
And there's someone you're about to lose
There'll be a time, yeah, you can't sleep at night
She won't believe in you, oh, if you don't treat her right
I say, everyday, when the sun is almost down
You remember when your baby left the sound
Some people were born to lose
That's why lovers have the blues
I say, everyday, about five you'll hang your head and cry
That it's the time when your baby said goodbye
And you wanted to put your traveling shoes on
Yeah, you feel like crying when you get these kind blues
Yeah, all these blues, I said all these blues now
i met her in the park (in the park)
near the red red square (red square)
she wants my body (wants my body)
she wants my body (body so hard)
so i took her head down (her head down)
to feel this woman near (feel her near)
its good to do it in the park
its good to do it in the USSR
east west your body love x 3
i enter her round her hips (her hips)
kissing on her lips (kissing her lips)
our tongues are waiting (waiting for dirt)
our tongues are searching (searching for dirt)
its good to do it in the park
its good to do it in the USSR
east west your body love x 15
And now I see the end
And everything is gone
As I begin to move
As I begin to see
And all I want to do
Is be in here with you
And all I want from you
Is to see your face
You will wake me
And now I see this life
As it begins to shine
And I begin to see
Just what's inside of me
Now I wait here broken
Waiting to see you
I'm always filling my mind
with all this porno lit, treat the
woman I love like a degenerate, I got to give it up
I'm getting sick of it
Sydwinder, It's on the ground
Sydwinder, It comes unwound
Sydwinder, It's all around
Sydwinder, It's on the ground
I'm always telling my mind
I got to get it right, I'm always
telling my mind i got to get it right
I'm always telling my mind I got to get it right
Their always telling my mind I got to get it right
Their always telling my mind I got to get it right
Their always telling my mind I got to get it right
Living like a dog, among
A swine, among a trough
Full of slime I want to
Puke on all the times
They pissed me off,
Don't give a slam
About a thing, they
Wanna fight, I'm
Gonna cream another
Punk because I'm
Mean, from all the
Pretty things I've seen.
You just kneel down
Beside the bench, all you
Do is pay your money and
Forget the rest, I say forget it
Man, I want to know the lord,
I want to take up his cross, I
Want to take up his sword It
Doesn't matter if you're white
Or black, He says we're sacred
So deal with that, And don't
Bend the world to fit your
Style, just teach it right to
Make it worth your while.
Thorn of Rage
Your prayers aren't answered,
You wonder why, It's probably
Cause you don't know the guy,
You gotta know who, you're
Talking to, cause if you don't
Well it's no use, you gotta find
Time, to read the word everyday
You say that's absurd, you
Gotta love the Lord your God,
Here we go boom, boom, boom, again
I'm caught in my mind, somebody's
Telling me I'm already dead, dead to
My flesh or dead to the spirit, if I
Were alive then you'd think that
I'd hear it G. It's in his trickery, the lie
That he spreads full term in my head
Bringing me down, making me boy
To this place that I dread.
Cause everytime I look in the mirror,
I see the reflection of the one that
I fear, turn my back on the love of my
Life, here I stand now, just me and
My pride.
Somebody getting thru 2 u Better
Be thinking twice, boy
I try to breathe, caught down ripped
Asunder feeling the weight that I've
Brought from this underworld, place
Grown cold, tear my flesh, bring obedience
This is the air I breath, this is the air I breath
Your holy presence living in me
This is my daily bread, this is my daily bread
You were very worried spoken to me
And I, I´m desperate for you
And I, I´m lost without you
This is the air I breath, this is the air I breath
Your holy presence living in me
This is my daily bread, this is my daily bread
You were very worried spoken to me
(Refrão):
And I, I´m desperate for you (I´m desperate for you)
And I, I´m lost without you (I´m lost without you)
(Refrão)
I´m lost without you
This is the air I breath, this is the air I breath
Your holy presence living in me
(Refrão) 2x
I´m lost without you (3x)
"For I am convinced that neither death nor life,
nor angels nor principalities nor things present,
nor things to come, nor powers, nor height nor depth,
nor any other created thing, will be able to separate us
I'll sew my eyes shut
So i can never look...
Back on yesterday.
These nights i drive under a rusted moon,
Will be a memory i'll shatter.
Against a wall of fallen hope,
That you consume to stay alive.
And then i close my eyes,
The colors flash across my face
And soon i'll be there...
I'm starving for the breath of tomorrow.
And then it all screams,
Burn this town...
And turn my back from the ashes.
And so my eyes shut,
So i can never look back on yesterday.
And i won't miss the way you nailed me
To your streets and left me bleeding.
And when you wake
There'll be nothing left of me...
Just a shadow burned into your streets.
Run away,
Far far away boy,
Run away from here
That's what she said to me.
Your dreamlike skies
Won't fool me anymore.
You're dreamlike,
You're dreamlike...
And i'm...
Never looking back.
I'll run away,
Far away from here...
And i'm never looking back,
One more life is swayed,
To gain your so called freedom,
You lie, you cheat, you steal,
And yet you still don't see.
Overturn the will of the people,
While we just stand by idle,
Yeah, that's right I'm pointing fingers,
You wait and see.
(chorus)
How's this! is this what you wanted?
Open up your eyes,
And face what is to come.
These lies they're gaining ground,
And we're just buying' time,
We stand our backs are braced,
Our feet are firmly planted,
Come quickly God we cry,
Come quickly, come quickly.
I see your face, your hand so close, your voice so clear,
Lies birthed kill innocence. Child's smile turn upsidedown.
Silence bears the mark you see, bring an end to what's to come.
You don't see what I can see, twisted pictures haunting me,
Failure trails so close behind, you'll just wait till we meet again.
[chorus]
You, You're the reason. You're the one that's stealing my freedom!
Anger scars another back, Child quiet to mask the pain,
Running from a scary man, bring an end to what's the come.
You don't see what I can see, twisted pictures haunting me,
Failure trails so close behind, you'll just wait till we meet again.
[chorous]
You, You're the reason. You're the one that's stealing my freedom!
Standing waiting for this moment to end
I can't believe it's finally here
We said that kiss would be a promise forever
And I can't believe you're going away
Got to let you go
Just like we always said
Got to let you go
Just like we said before
My mind is filled with these memories of you
Your smile deep inside my tears
I wonder if there are roses in heaven
And I wish that I could hold you right here
And when I start to dream
It's your face, that I see
And when I breathe
Through the years
We shared the tears
That freed us from the yesteryears
We made the sacrafice of time
But never feeling left behind
Standing in the pouring rain
I promise I won't cry again
Escaping,
Your breath cold,
Now strain to hear your voice,
Pushing away your hand,
The weight again it falls away.
[chorus]
You're only going to be what you see,
You're never going to jump up,
You're only going to be what you see,
You're always going to be what you are now.
You're only going to be what you see,
You're never going to jump up,
You're only going to tbe what you see,
You're never going to become just like him.
Reliving,
This need's real,
Now turn to see your face,
Pushing away your hand,
The weight again it falls away.
Now finally seeing what you've always known was true,
What it is I often wonder,
Turning you away.
Listen to that still small voice,
Fade away.
You see only what you want to,
Close your eyes and sleep.
You hear only what you want to,
Clinging to your lies.
(Chorus)
You and I we see things different now
You and I we see things differently.
Close your mouth your words are stolen,
Heard them all before,
Speaking truths you've long forgotten,
Falling to the floor.
You see only what you want to,
Close your eyes and sleep.
You hear only what you want to,
Clinging to your lies.
(Chorus)
I can see everything now that you're so blinded,
I can see everything now thats it's all clear.
I can see everything now that you're so blinded,
I can see everything everything everything everything
Watching from the shadows,
stealing all that's left.
Great deceiver,
(so) beautiful.
Fading moments,
passing like years.
Wish everything
was perfect.
I'm all I'll ever need,
so go away.
Keep your lies.
For every wish,
there's hope and time.
Now it's complicated,
I wish I was medicated.
There's gotta be some way out of here.
Looking for release
to end the greatest need.
I'm all I'll ever need,
so go away.
Keep your lies.
For every wish
there's hope and time. (x 2)
GOD HELP ME!
GOD HELP ME!
Gotta peel away the skin,
just find The Truth in here. (x 2)
I'm all I'll ever need,
so go away.
Keep your lies.
For every wish,
there's hope and time. (x 2)
Gather around to hear the future.
Wonder what or who it will be.
Rumors fly of the possibilities,
Everyone is taking a chance.
And I know, when everything's said and done,
In the end, nothing they say will matter anyway.
We'll always be just who we are.
We'll be okay no matter where we land.
Time to take the stage.
Turn my eyes up towards the sky.
The room is very dark,
But somehow there's light in here.
And I know, when everything's said and done,
In the end, nothing they say will matter anyway.
We'll always be just who we are.
We'll be okay no matter where we land. (x 2)
So here we are.
Better put on The happy face,
Open up the curtains,
Show the final word what they want,
What they want...
We'll always be just who we are.

East West
Over the ocean
Perpetual Motion
Traveling around
No rest, singing and playing
Night out and day in
Doing the rounds
What a great life this must seem!
Swelled joints
Everything classy
Nothing is tacky
Only the best!
Lush girls, older and dying
Sighing and crying
This is success!
What a good life this must seem!
But when I hear your voice
Singing out
The Bells Of Hope
Are ringing out
And I feel all alone
(And I think of my home)
Cold times
A wind through the houses
The bleakness arouses
A longing to leave
Time flew
I wanted to see you
Somehow I could not do
Because of success
What a strange life this can be!
But when I hear your voice
singing out
The Bells Of Home
Are ringing out
And I feel all alone
Walk the gauntlet of lies.
Who will it be today...
Secrets of this place,
Never knowing...
Follow the ones that consume,
Becoming just like them.
Fade away among the crowds, again.
And I can read the stains inside your mind,
Remains of the beauty.
And I can hope for the silence of your words,
Cause I know I'll be caught here...
And I could never really find the answers,
Always locked inside of something so close.
And I could never really find the reasons,
Just assumed it was you.
Pushed in a corner where screams die,
Fighting to stay alive.
Cower down to be alone.
Nothing is worth this.
When is the right time to let it all go?
Not that it matters... but I fear,
I fear that someday
It'll find it's way to you.
I could never really find the answers,
Always locked inside of something so close.
I could never really find the reasons,
Just assumed it was you.
I could never really find the answers,
Always locked inside of something so close.
I could never really find the reasons,
Waiting in a corner standing.
Playing out the best case.
Your pleasure is nearing.
Hunt them.
Get away.
Hurt them.
In a moment madness reeling.
There's no one watching now,
the innocence dying.
Hunt them.
Get away.
Hurt them.
Nothing Breathes inside...
Nothing Lives inside...
Sickening cries call out.
Begging to be released,
only to find,
they're falling on deaf ears.
Hurt them.
Get away.
Hunt them.
Nothing Breathes inside...
Shallow pictures of the way that it was meant to be.
Set the standard so we think like that.
Open up your eyes.
Normalicy is what you think you're living in.
Time to see yourself for who you are.
Time to live.
Burn it down. Walk away.
Tear it down. Walk away.
Pass the folly of the greedy to the younger ones,
Keep the righteous from the open wound.
Gather up the dead.
What is real?
Burn it down. Walk away.
Tear it down. Walk away.
You were right...
It's been a whole year since your call
The one that started
I don't love you anymore
I thought I'd surely not survive
But here I am, I'm still alive, 365 days later
Going strong, holding on
trying to find a place where I belong
I've been east, I've been west
but I'm still not over you yet
I'm still not over you yet, no no
The weeks and months blend into one
A bleary haze, fall, winter
now spring has begun
Bringing fresh hope to my door
I'll be the girl I was before you took back
the precious gift you gave to me
Going strong, holding on
trying to find a place where I belong
I've been east, I've been west
but I'm still not over you yet
I'm still not over you yet, no no
And after all is said and done
and written up (written in the stars above)
The radio's singing songs of love
but not for us
Not for us
Going strong, holding on
trying to find a place where I belong
I've been east, I've been west
but I'm still not over you yet
I'm still not over you yet, no no
East west, east west, 365
