a decent melody

I'm not afraid of anything in this world
there's nothing you can throw at me
that I haven't already heard

I'm just trying to find a decent melody
A song that I can sing
in my own company

I never thought you were a fool
but darling look at you
you gotta stand up straight
carry your own weight
cause tears are going nowhere, baby

You've got to get yourself together
you've got stuck in a moment
and now you can't get out of it

Don't say that later would be better
now you've stuck in a moment
and now you can't get out of it

I will not forsake the colors that you bring
the nights you fill with fireworks
they, they left you nothing

I am still enchanted
by the light you brought to me
I listen through your ears
through your eyes I can see

You are such a fool
to worry like you do
I know it's tough and you can never get enough
of what you don't really need now, my oh my

You've got to get yourself together
you've got stuck in a moment
and now you can't get out of it

Oh love, look at you now
you've got yourself stuck in a moment
and now you can't get out of it

I was unconcious, half asleep
the water is warm till you discover how deep
I wasn't jumping, for me it was a fall
it was a long way down to nothing at all..

And if the night runs over
and if the day won't last
and if your way should falter
along on this stony pass

it's just a moment
this time will pass...
