Rough Silk - Ambrosia lyrics

When you see your pain's reflection in the mirror of the truth Do you take the easy one-way-out to the lake of faded youth? When you hear the whistle callin' and the reaper yells your name Do you scream for help - emergency - do you try to hide your shame? You've been a winner - a looser - a sinner - bizarre And now a saint in a top-less bar. ( Ambrosia ) The sun shines bright on TV-screen For those who're white-dressed, nice and clean The bad black guys must always die Before a commercial tells another lie. Alone in the darkness I sit and I stare - had to learn long ago that life simply ain't fair. Ambrosia - a voice from far make a wish on a falling star - a tattoed scar - Ambrosia When intelligence means "without a chance" in the cold grey morning light And the words you speak in anger lead to love letters burning bright Do you dare to take an adventure trip to the island in the sun Where tomorrow's hope dies yesterday and your pride is on the run. You've been a winner……. The sun shines bright on TV-screen…….. The sun shines bright on TV-screen……..
