Public Image - Take Flight Lyrics

The paint drips down the canvas
Smeared with all of my broken dreams
Making life a master piece is
Harder then it seems
I can see your right through the pupils
Of your beautiful bright blue eyes
But all I see is the lie you're living
Its going no where
I should have seen this ending from the start
I always knew it wasn't in your heart
Wasting time just watching the clock turn
Backwards and backwards
Now that you've happened to bring me down
You think I'd keep going round and round
Jokes on you it ends right here
Its going nowhere

We live and we learn
We thrive or we burn
No time for concern

Don't let the day pass you by
You don't know what you can be
Unless you learn to try
Cant leave any part of you behind
If you don't wanna spread your wings you will
Never learn to fly

So pick your palette of colors
A shade of scarlet would suit you well
A portrait painted of how you always will
Sell your body out
Well it takes two to tango baby
And I wont take that dance
Its time to march to a different drum
The party is over

We live and we learn
We thrive or we burn
We rise or we fall
No risk no reward
No time for concern

Don't let the day pass you by
You don't know what you can be
Unless you learn to try
Cant leave any part of you behind
If you don't wanna spread your wings you will
Never learn to fly

Though scars will split
And wounds will crack
I'd take that chance
And not look back
I'll call it art
Its just a start
So lets go

Don't let the day pass you by
You don't know what you can be
Unless you learn to try
Cant leave any part of you behind
If you don't wanna spread your wings you will
Never learn to fly
