LYRIC FOR SALE

By Paul Pratt

Verse 1
Is that you really in there
That you’re trying to hide
Behind
Is it you inside
You allow out sometimes
Or can it be me
That you set free
For all to see
Chorus
When you battle
To get your sentences out
No need to shout
To nobody there
With no one to follow you
And nobody to care
To be
The cross you bear
Verse 2
Where have you gone to now
I can feel the tension
As you live without your love
And blame another
For every favour you can find
I am not blind
I feel your pain again
And you have nothing to gain
As you remain in the shadow
Alone to rattle your chain---bridge

Bridge
No need to shout
To nobody there
Verse 3
We have turned the page
And come of age
You are secure
I visit no more
But you still open the door
So
We can say hello
The rules don’t apply
To you and I
We just needed to know
All that time ago
We are an alter ego
With a long way to go
Chorus
When you battle
To get your sentences out
No need to shout
To nobody there
With no one to follow you
And nobody to care
To be
The cross you bear
