American Angel - After the Laughter (1989 Doggie demo) lyrics

You see the dreams that I'm holding Tightly gripped within my hands I preserve So hard you're trying to wonder What can be so precious you don't deserve So near you're getting so close now You just can't grasp it in a rapid decline You think you've got it all sewn up You made the bed that you sleep in I don't want what you've got But I know that you want what I'm after In your drowning pool you command a ship of fools It's too late now to stop all the hate now After the laughter Time is forever on my side I can spend it anyway that I choose Eternal fixture in paradise I pa**ed the test and, yes, I've paid all my dues No more living the past now Once it's ignored it doesn't matter what's said Too bad, you never did change your luck 'Cause nothing matters once you've placed all your bets I don't want what you've got But I know that you want what I'm after In your drowning pool you command a ship of fools It's too late now to stop all the hate now After the laughter Ooh, baby, ooh, baby, oh, yeah! I don't want what you've got But I know that you want, yeah Oh-oh-oh... In your drowning pool you command a ship of fools It's too late now to stop all the hate now After the laughter I don't want what you've got But I know that you want what I'm after In your drowning pool you command a ship of fools It's too late now to stop all the hate now After the laughter
