TITLE OF THIS SONG Sign in or register

 
You've taken the title of this song
From a life that's beyond
Something that you could belong to
But is it wrong to sing along?
When all of the words
They just get on my nerves
And the verse is ringing out like a curse

I'm tired of this old refrain
Is the chorus you sang
When you had no one to blame but yourself
For singing it all in vain

You've taken the title of this song
From a book that goes on and on
Till you can't find the ending
Was it a funeral or a wedding
Or a séance for the bride
Whose affection had died
Though some say love is suicide

My heart it don't make any sense
Was all that she said
When her love was found dead
But the story was all in her head

You've taken the notes from your head
And played them out loud on a public announcement instead
'Cause all of your thoughts get distorted
The feedback goes on
And you've ruined the song
While ev'ryone just plays along

It's only the notes that you've played
That drowned out the thoughts
From a song that was lost
And the song you sang
It didn't have a name

There was nothing but the song we were singing
There was nothing but the song we were singing
There was nothing but the song we were singing
There was nothing but the song we were singing

You've taken the title of this song
From a life that's beyond
To something that you couldn't hold on to
But is it wrong to sing along?
When all of the words
They just get on your nerves
But the verse is ringing out like a curse

I'm tired of this old refrain
Is the chorus you sang
When you had no one to blame but yourself
For singing it all in vain

You've taken the title of this song

Was it a funeral or a wedding
Or a séance for the bride

For singing it all in vain

There was nothing but the song we were singing
Nothing but the song we were singing
Nothing but the song we were singing
Nothing but the song we were singing
Nothing but the song we were singing
Nothing but the song we were singing
And there was nothing but the song we were singing
