They're talking of ways to make you up to break you down And these are the days to make it up - to get around You claim you're the harmed, but you're the face that looks away So lay down your arms, we know the war is on its way And you want to live on my side Don't let the child in you die We're sleeping on gla** that cuts so deep your blood is cheap Material ghosts who wander streets.. wandering I want to live on love's side Don't let the child in you die.. and Don't fade on me, don't make believe The animals will break you if they can So stay a while with me.. a life condition free In love's cradle wherever you may be Talking of ways to make you see the real me So just be yourself and you can be what you've always been
