Meat Loaf - Read 'em & Weep Lyrics
Ive been trying for hours just to think of what exactly to sayI thought Id leave you with a letter or firey speechLike when an actor makes an exit at the end of a playAnd Ive been dying for hours trying to fill up all the holes with some senseId like to know how you faded and you threw it awayId like to give you all the reasons and what everything meantWell I could tell you good-bye or maybe see you aroundWith just a touch of a sarcastic thanksWe started out with a bang and at the top of the worldNow the guns are exhausted and the bullets are blanksAnd everythings blankChorus:If I could find the words then I would write it all downIf I could only find a voice I would speakOh its there in my eyes so cant you see me tonightCmon and look at me and read em and weepChorusIve been whispering softly, trying to build a cry up to a screamWe let the past slip away, and put the future on holdNow the present is nothing but a hollowed out dreamAnd Ive been dying for hours trying to fill up all the holes with some senseId like to know why you faded and you threw it awayId like to give you all the reasons and what everything meantWell I could tell you good-bye or maybe see you aroundWith just a touch of a sarcastic thanksBut now the rooms are all empty, the candles are darkThe guns are exhausted and the bullets are blanks, and everythings blankChorusIts there in my eyes and coming straight from my heartIts running silent and angry and deepIts there in my eyes and its all I can say, cmon and read em and weepRead em and weep - for all the hours well be spending aloneRead em and weep - for the dreams well ignoreRunning silent and deep -And all those promises we promised to keep, they wont be kept anymoreRead em and weep - for the magic that our bodies had madeRead em and weep - for the blood that we lostRunning silent and deep - and all the secrets that we somehow betrayedFor whatever the costRead em and weep - for the memories still alive in the bedRead em and weep - for the lies we believedRunning silent and deep - and all the things that can never be saidWhy dont you look at me and read em and weepCmon and look at me and read em and weepIts there in my eyes and coming straight from my heartIts running silent and angry and deepIts here in my eyes and its all I can sayCmon look at me and read em and weep
