LYRICS
Everyone Knows That There’s No Use Crying
Snakes and Ladders
That’s amazing, I look just like some other I used to know.
You said you’d change me from head to toe.
Now I stand here. Funny how some things aren’t meant to be.
Now it’s clear to me.
Background Vocals: Somewhere in this town
Somewhere in this town
Background Vocals: Another King is crowned
Another King is crowned
But it don’t really matter,
life’s a game full of snakes and ladders
Background Vocals: Snakes and ladders
Don’t look down
She tried to help me
and make me more of a lover that a man could ever be.
I was willing to do anything.
Now I stand here, knowing that some things aren’t meant to be.
Now it’s clear to me.
Background Vocals: It’s clear to me ?

Our time is up
She ...
She has to leave, it’s after dark.
She told me in the morning?
She turns me ...

Giving up the Ghost
We put up a candle, tried to entangle ...from dusk until dawn?
She’ll never surrender or even pretend that lately something is wrong.
Don’t come any closer, I’ve made my mind up.
I’m giving up the ghost, I tried to make the most of a chance, God knows.
I’m taking up the chance/off the chains? .... once again, just giving up the ghost.
just giving up the ghost.
I’ll always remember, our love was so tender, tell me, who could want more?
Why do we take this for granted, then leave empty-handed, maybe we’ll never be sure.
Can’t go any further, because our time is up.
I’m giving up the ghost, I tried to make the most of a chance, God knows.
I’m taking up the chance ...
just giving up the ghost.
And I dream, I’m adrift on an ocean
far away from the land.
As I dive from the edge of devotion
See you waving your hand.
I see you waving your hand.
Don’t worry ‘bout me.
Don’t come any closer, I’ve made my mind up.
I’m giving up the ghost, I tried to make the most of a chance, God knows.
I’m taking up the chance ... once again, just giving up the ghost.
I’m giving up the ghost, I tried to make the most of a chance, God knows.

And I dream, I’m adrift on an ocean
far away from the land.
As I dive from the edge of devotion
See you waving your hand.

Everyone Knows That There’s No Use Crying
If I knew back then what I know tonight
there’d be a world of difference in the words I’d write
I’d run? that page, start all over again
I don’t wanna be hurt like that all over again.
I don’t wanna live my life
wondering how things could have been.
Everyone knows that there’s no use crying after the event
Everyone knows that there’s no use crying, it doesn’t make much sense.
Love is a risk that we all must take,
a leap in the dark when you’re wide awake.
Everyone knows that there’s no use crying
The curtain falls on another day
As I close my eyes, the memories gently fade away.
A thousand stars fill my empty sky.
Keep me in my innocence,
teach me to fly.
I don’t wanna waste my time
wondering how things should have been.
Everyone knows that there’s no use crying after the event
Everyone knows that there’s no use crying, it doesn’t make much sense.
Love is a risk that we all must take,
anybody can make mistakes.
Everyone knows that there’s no use crying

Screaming Blue Mother
She stands on stage, the beauty queen, in answer to her wildest dreams
This is the best day of her life.
Tonight she’ll board the midnight plane,
there’s nothing left to be explained.
She looks him right between the eyes.
He begged in pain
He begged in pain for her to stay
Now Daddy shouts the day away.
Sreaming blue mother
Shouts that day away
Lost in the pain.
Screaming
didn’t mean to hurt her.
She said she never needed anybody’s love
but now her Dad is crying in the rain.
That day he stood out in the crowd,
he’d never ever been so proud
His little girl had come of age.
But now he lives in Mary Lane,
he finds it hard to speak her name,
what she had written on a page.
He should have read
He should have read between the lines
‘cause now he’s spending all his time.
Screaming blue mother
spending all your time
lost in the pain
Screaming
didn’t mean to hurt her.
She said she never needed anybody’s love
but now her Dad is crying in the rain.

He cries in pain
Why did he have to end this way,
now Daddy shouts the day away
