It takes a fool to remain sane - The ark

 
Whatever happened to the funky race?
A generation lost in pace,
Wasn't life supposed to be more than this?
In this kiss I'll change your bore for my bliss
let go'f my hand and it will slip out in sand
if you don't give me the chance
to break down the walls of attitude,
I ask nothing of you
not even your gratitude
And if you think I'm corny
then it will not make me sorry
it's your right to laugh at me
and in turn, that's my opportunity
to feel brave
'Cause it takes a fool to remain sane
oh it takes a fool to remain sane
oh it takes a fool to remain sane
oh in this world all covered up in shame
Every morning I would see her
getting off the bus the
picture never drops it's like a
multicoloured snapshot
stuck in my brain
it kept me sane for a couple of years
as it drenched my fears
of becoming like the others
who become unhappy mothers
and fathers of unhappy kids
And why's that?
'Cause they've forgotten how to play
or maybe they're afraid to feel ashamed
to seem strange
to seem insane
to seem gay
to gain weight
I tell you this:
That it takes a fool to remain sane
oh it takes a fool to remain sane
oh it takes a fool to remain sane
oh in this world all covered up in shame
So, take it to the stage in a multicoloured jacket
take it jackpot, crackpot,
strutting like a peacock
nailvarnish Arkansas
shimmyshammy featherboah crackpot haircut
dye your hair in glowing red and blue,
Do, Do, Do! What you wanna do
Don't think twice, do what you have to do,
Do, Do, Do, Do, let your heart decide what you have to do
that's all there is to find
Cause it takes a fool to remain sane,
Oh, It takes a fool to remain sane
Oh, In this world all covered up in shame
Oh it takes a fool to remain sane,
Oh it takes a fool to remain sane
Oh it takes a fool to remain sane
Oh in this world all covered up in shame.
Oh it takes a fool
Oh it takes a fool

In the shadows - The Rasmus

 
No sleep
No sleep until I am done with finding the answer
Won't stop
Won't stop before I find a cure for this cancer
Sometimes
I feel I going down and so disconnected
Somehow
I know that I am haunted to be wanted

I've been watching
I've been waiting
In the shadows for my time
I've been searching
I've been living
For tomorrows all my life

In the shadows

In the shadows

They say
That i must learn to kill before i can feel safe
But I
I'd rather kill myself than turn into their slave
Sometimes
I feel that I should go and play with the thunder
Somehow
I just don't wanna stay and wait for a wonder

I've been watching
I've been waiting
In the shadows for my time
I've been searching
I've been living
For tomorrows all my life

Lately I been walking walking in circles, watching waiting for something
Feel me touch me heal me, come take me higher

I've been watching
I've been waiting
In the shadows all my time
I've been searching
I've been living
For tomorrows all my life
I've been watching
I've been waiting
I've been searching
I've been living for tomorrows

In the shadows

In the shadows
I've been waiting

Ain't no sunshine - Bill Withers

Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
It's not warm when she's away
Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
And she always gone too long anytime she goes away

Wonder this time where she's gone
Wonder if she's gone to stay
Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
And this house just ain't no home
Anytime she goes away

I know, I know, I know, I know
I know, I know, I know, I know
I know, I know, I know, I know
I know, know, know, know, know
I know, I know
Hey I ought to
I ought to leave her alone
Ain't no sunshine when she's gone

Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
Only darkness everyday
Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
And this house just ain't no home
Anytime she goes away
