The Real Tuesday Weld - You're Going to Live lyrics

Gone are the days of pretence and hiding Telling your friends you're just spending time alone Gone all the lazy self denying - They call it blood but it tastes like silicone I guess you loved them if you say you did But you'll be slated all your life for this So let's be done with the tragic schtick You thought you were dead Now you're going to live You're gonna live You're gonna live You're gonna live You'll wake in the night Start up the car Forget who you were You'll never be happier I'll make us a place In the dust and static Pray to the gods They won't take you back again All your days will be Safe while you're with me But I've got to believe You're going to live Like Veronica Lake in a New York diner It may have been the sound of a stranger saying your name Like CF Kane at the end of the line you Woke from a dream to a world all re-arranged Now we'll plant your name like a spike in the ground Raise your flag all over town You thought you were lost - well now you're found So grab your things 'cause You're going to live All your days will be Safe while you're with me You're going to live
