On the brink of complying, I'm very slow
And I say to myself: Oh no, don't go
Well I like you the way you are, so please don't change
Don't you know that your mind could rearrange
So today it starts and tomorrow it ends
I lost my soul and I lost my friends
So today it ends and tomorrow it starts
The brooding of a million hearts
Music's the way, the only way I know
It's time to let the brooding heart
Choose the way to go
'Cause love is not the answer, it's never here to stay
What's here through the night, may be gone by day
On the brink of attack, I'm society prone
And they're telling me you should find out what is wrong
I think I'm alright, I'm still putting up a fight
But I keep on losing, soon I'll be dying of fright
On the brink of insanity, I see my friend
And I'm trying to tell him it can't be the end
Well, you've made me live, now you've got more to give
If he goes o'er that brink, who will I cry with?
Because music's the way, the only way I know
It's time to let the brooding heart
Choose the way to go
'Cause love is not the answer, it's never here to stay
What's here through the night, may be gone by day
What's here through the night, may be gone by day
