FALLING APART

• ORIGINALLY BY CIVIC PROGRESS

THIS IS THE SOUND

OF THINGS FALLING APART

THE BEGINNING WAS THE END

BUT WE CAN'T GO BACK TO WHERE WE START

AMD IT'S REALLY A SHAME

OUR LIPS ARE SEALED

• ORIGINALLY BY THE GO-GO's

CAN YOU HEAR THEM?

THEY TALK ABOUT US

TELLING LIES

WELL, THAT'S NO SURPRISE

CAN YOU SEE THEM?

SEE RIGHT THROUGH THEM

THEY HAVE NO SHIELD

NO SECRETS TO REVEAL

DOESN'T MATTER WHAT THEY SAY

IN THE JEALOUS GAMES PEOPLE PLAY

OUR LIPS ARE SEALED

THERE'S A WEAPON

THAT WE MUST USE

IN OUR DEFENSE

SILENCE

WHEN YOU LOOK AT THEM

LOOK RIGHT THROUGH THEM

THAT'S WHEN THEY'LL DISAPPEAR

THAT'S WHEN WE'LL BE FEARED

PAY NO MIND TO WHAT THEY SAY

DOESN'T MATTER ANYWAY

HUSH, MY DARLING

DON'T YOU CRY

QUIET, ANGEL

FORGET THEIR LIES

THINK FOR ME

• ORIGINALLY BY DIE KRUEZEN

I DON'T THINK FOR YOU

YOU DON'T THINK FOR ME

I WON'T CHANGE YOU

YOU CAN'T CHANGE ME

FIGHT FOR WHAT'S RIGHT

FIGHT FOR WHAT YOU BELIEVE IN

YOU AND I SHOULDN'T FIGHT

'CAUSE WE KNOW WHAT'S WRONG

AND WHAT'S RIGHT

YOU AND I SHOULD BE FRIENDS

OR FIGHT AMONGST YOURSELVES

p>UNTIL THE END

FIGHT FOR WHAT'S RIGHT

FIGHT FOR YOUR OWN GOALS

YOU AND I DON'T FIGHT

WE KNOW WHAT'S WRONG AND WHAT'S RIGHT

YOU AND I ARE FRIENDS

WE'LL LIVE THE WAY WE LIKE UNTIL THE END

I DONT'T MIND

• ORIGINALLY BY THE BUZZCOCKS

REALITY'S A DREAM

A GAME IN WHICH I SEEM

TO NEVER FIND OUT JUST WHAT I AM

I DON'T KNOW IF I'M AN ACTOR OR HAM

A SHAMEN OR SHAM

BUT IF YOU DON'T MIND

I DON'T MIND

I'M LOST WITHOUT A CLUE

SO HOW CAN I UNDO

THE TANGLE OF THESE WEBS I KEEP WEAVING

I DON'T KNOW IF I SHOULD BE BELIEVING

DECEPTIVE PERCEIVING

BUT IF YOU DON'T MIND

I DON'T MIND

I USED TO BET THAT YOU DIDN'T CARE

BUT GAMBLING NEVER GOT ME ANYWHERE

EACH TIME I USED TO FEEL SO SURE

SOMETHING ABOUT YOU

MADE ME DOUBT YOU MORE

HOW CAN YOU CONVINCE ME

WHEN EVERYTHING I SEE

JUST MAKES ME FEEL

YOU'RE PUTTING ME DOWN

AND IF IT'S TRUE THIS PATHETIC CLOWN'LL

KEEP HANGING AROUND

THAT'S IF YOU DON'T MIND

I DON'T MIND

I EVEN THINK YOU HATE ME

WHEN YOU CALL ME ON THE PHONE

AND SOMETIMES WHEN WE GO OUT

I WISH I'D STAYED AT HOME

AND WHEN I'M DREAMING

OR JUST LYING IN MY BED

I THINK YOU'VE GOT IT IN FOR ME

IS IT ALL IN MY HEAD IS IT IN MY HEAD

HOW CAN YOU CONVINCE ME

WHEN EVERYTHING I SEE

JUST MAKES ME FEEL

YOU'RE PUTTING ME DOWN

AND IF IT'S TRUE THIS PATHETIC CLOWN'LL

KEEP HANGING AROUND

THAT'S IF YOU DON'T MIND

I DON'T MIND
