Dying Duck In A Thunderstorm

(album: Rev - 1994)

You heard the warnings, saw the signs
Do you still think we left you behind?
Don't you remember how we tried?
Another place another time
Without reason without rhyme
Can you imagine life without your pride?

You look up at me with
You look up at me with
You look up at me with those hurt puppy dog eyes
You look up at me with
You look up at me with
You look up at me with those hurt puppy dog eyes
I never meant to hurt you
I'm sorry that I had to be the one to tell you that you screwed up for the last time
I know that there were times before when I said I'd be there
That's when I thought the choice was mine
But I've lived and I know better promises
Were never meant to be because I couldn't see
That the things you thought you'd change you had no will to rearrange
So you made a liar out of me

What else can I say?
I'm sorry it turned out this way
Do you think we'll ever be the same?
And it'd still call you my friend, but to you it is the end
I know you think that I'm the one to blame

You look up at me with
You look up at me with
You look up at me with those hurt puppy dog eyes
You look up at me with
You look up at me with
You look up at me with those hurt puppy dog eyes
I never meant to hurt you
I'm sorry that I had to be the one to tell you that you screwed up for the last time
I know that there were times before when I said I'd be there
That's when I thought the choice was mine
But I've lived and I know better promises
Were never meant to be because I couldn't see
That the things you thought you'd change you had no will to rearrange
So you made a liar out of me

You look up at me with
You look up at me with
You look up at me with those hurt puppy dog eyes
You look up at me with
You look up at me with
You look up at me with those hurt puppy dog eyes
