Camouflage - Ballout

Dead-end streets and boulevards You threw in the towel, I broke your heart But there's a first time for everything Who would've thought you'd feel so cold And all these memories seem so old To think you were my everything Remember when we'd talk all night But time ain't easy on us, how can love die? I got so much shit to say But I can't help feeling like I'm camouflage Fortress around my heart You were mine just yesterday Now I have no idea who you are It's like camouflage But it's good to see you here again I don't wanna say goodbye But it's about half past ten And I have to catch my ride Riding alone on the I-95 And life's so fragile, it's like I could cry If that's the last time I'd see you again But I'll never tell you just how I felt You might just not care, and it might just not help What if the feelings just don't make no sense to you, you Remember when we'd talk all night But time ain't easy on us, how can love die? I got so much shit to say But I can't help feeling like I'm camouflage Fortress around my heart You were mine just yesterday Now I have no idea who you are It's like camouflage But it's good to see you here again I don't wanna say goodbye But it's about half past ten And I have to catch my ride I got so much shit to say But I can't help feeling like I'm camouflage Fortress around my heart You were mine just yesterday Now I have no idea who you are It's like camouflage But it's good to see you here again I don't wanna say goodbye But it's about half past ten And I have to catch my ride

Black men leaders cried for freedom White policemen shot them dead. The survivors get in prison Based on laws which no one understands. What can we do What can we say? Can it be law to kill your neighbours? What can we do What can we say? Can it be wrong to end it all? White man yawning in his armchair Smiled while watching white TV. Hundreds of people death or injured He never understands this hysteria. What can we do What can we say? ... Snipers sitting in police-cars Cautious stroking machine-guns. Never thought of black suppression They were paid for every hit they have. What can we do What can we say? ... What can we do What can we say? ...

I remember so many nights in the bed alone Wonderin' Could I muster the strength to exist in the bitter cold? But you showed up once in a while, I guess that's alright 'Cause I told my heart that you needed time for yourself, it's fine I camouflage my tears And you wear your disguise And 'round I go To know that you still love me (I need to know, say that you do) To know if you still love me (I need to know, say that you do) Weary some times when I tried to discern our reality Wish that I just could be somebody else if you talked to me Yet praying inside: "Let him love me for who I am" Please, my Lord But you were just somewhere that I couldn't reach Couldn't understand (All that I needed was you to really see me) I camouflage my tears And you wear your disguise And 'round I go To know if you still love me (I need to know, say that you do) To know if you still love me (I need to know, say that you do) No, didn't we swear we'd give it our everything? (Didn't we swear passionate heart and our love) Didn't I give you all of me? (Didn't I give you all of me?) Oh, oh, oh No night or day goes by No, no, no When I don't wonder inside (You still feel the way) If you feel the way you used to feel I camouflage my tears And you wear your disguise And 'round and 'round I go (To know if you still love me) (I need to know, say that you do) I remember so many nights (I need to know, say that you do) I camouflaged... That's all I really wanted (Oh say) That's all I really wanted... (Tell me that you love me) I cry and cry as you laugh and laugh (I pray that you still love me) I cry and cry as you laugh and laugh at the question But I need to know Weary some times when I try to discern our reality
