Saying Sorry 04:53
You've got the power and it's deep inside you Nowhere to run you gotta use that power It's just inevitable like your own judgement day You need it now before your finest hour Did you ever think about anybody else now Were you being selfish or did you just not care Now you're gonna pay the price for your actions And you'll see that life isn't fair Whatcha gonna do, now you're heading for the big one No turning back and you wanna say sorry Saying sorry's just too late now Though something told you that you were wrong So foolish, you did what you wanted You can see the repercussions of your hate You must know that it's hate you prompted And now it's you that could come to harm You wished you'd thought before you were so careless And you want a second chance from the people Whose lives you've made such a mess Whatcha gonna do, now you're heading for the big one No turning back and you wanna say sorry Saying sorry's just too late now

Look Look away From the dangers That invites you in See That your bathing In the water As it cleanses your skin I'm not afraid of this situation 'cause I know that it'll be alright I only wish I felt this way with you Feel The immersion That you've taken That's soothing you Take Take a dive Into paradise That pool so blue I'm not afraid of this situation 'cause I know that it'll be alright I only wish I felt this way with you I'm not afraid of this situation I'm not afraid of this situation I only wish I felt this way with you

Where is a place that doesn't keep you locked in, or disables you to be free? Where is a place where no one looks down on you, or prejudges you irrationally? I need a place to be loved, a place where I can truly feel loved. Is there somewhere that I can live forever, where I would find absolute sufficiency. There'd be no pressure from daily routine that would cause harmful reaction to me. I've got to leave this place, for I've already lost the race. I will find a place of my own where I can feel right at home and there'll be no laws etched in stone and I'll be happy. It would be just like heaven. I could find myself free from harm and I could hold you in my arms forever always would I feel calm and happy. Would it be just like heaven? Will you listen to my plea for a better world, no longer will I suffer so horribly. My need to escape is stronger than my need to live, I cannot be pained so endlessly. If no one will understand, I'll take my life into my own hands. It's only then that I can be assured of peace, love and harmony. Because I've tried to make it work for myself, only to fail tremendously. I've lost the will to survive, because it hurts too much to be alive. I will find a place of my own where I can feel right at home and there'll be no laws etched in stone and I'll be happy. It would be just like heaven. I could find myself / free from harm and I could hold you in my arms forever always would I feel calm and happy. Would it be just like heaven?

Don't walk away from me You know what you have done You made me feel a fool In front of everyone Hold your head up Don't pretend that I'm not there You've got a black heart You're such an evil girl You've got to pay the price You evil girl It's a nightmarish spot For you to put me in You really have to be The epitome of sin What a shame though You were once my perfect dream You've got a black heart You're such an evil girl You've got to pay the price You evil girl

Today I realized that nothing's ever gone my way I always speak my mind but no one hears what I say I might as well bite my tongue cos my words are falling on deaf ears But I can't help the way I feel, it's the reason for my tears Frustration leaves me trembling, trembling Temptation makes me want to shout out to the world How can I make sense of this when there's no sense in comprehending? There's no reason to go on based on the vibes that life's been sending I'd give up everything if it meant that I could get a break But since I'm void in luck, it would probably end up being my last mistake. Frustration leaves me trembling, trembling Temptation makes me want to shout out to the world This has got to go away This has got to go away Frustration leaves me trembling, trembling Temptation makes me want to shout out to the world

I don't really know Which way that I should go But I Know that I love you Now it's just a matter of letting you know Face the nation With investigation It's either that or a disposition of isolation Disintegration Of the heart But I can't let that be the situation I need help from you So I won't be lonely too You must help me out And give a love that is true Face the nation With investigation It's either that or a disposition of isolation Disintegration Of the heart But I can't let that be the situation Gotta get your attention Face the nation With investigation It's either that or a disposition of isolation Disintegration Of the heart But I can't let that be the situation

about

This year, we had planned to play our first live shows since 1991, but things did not work out as we had hoped. In preparation, we had re-programmed a handful of older songs from our catalog, including "Saying Sorry", a song which we had only ever played live once in 1990, but never recorded properly. Fingers crossed we'll make our return to the stage in 2021...
