Fairytale Gone Bad (Acoustic Live 2010) - Sunrise Avenue

CARPENTER GONE BAD? Bob Bennett (C) 1979 Maranatha! Music (ASCAP) There's a man down in the street Says he's the Messiah Telling people he is the Chosen One Says that He is in the Father And the Father's in the Son Empty nets made full of fish And blind eyes that see Didn't he used to work with wood in Galilee? Now he's in the synagogue Telling people they are wrong To live as whitewashed tombs Full of dead men's bones Some say he is the Son of God Others laugh and call him mad Well do you think he's who they say he is Or just a carpenter gone bad? People talking about him wherever I go They say he teaches with authority Is there something I don't know? The say it is his fervent prayer That we stay in the Father's care And believe that he is the Word made man Some say he is the Son of God Others laugh and call him mad Well do you think he's who he says he is Or just a carpenter gone bad?

We stay movin' around solo Ask us where you at, we don't know And don't care (don't care) All we know is we was at home 'Cause you left us there You got your boys and got gone and left us all alone Now she, in the club with a freaky dress on Cats don't want her to keep that dress on Tryna get enough drinks in her system Take her to the telly and make her a victim Patrón on the brain Ball player in her face They shake the spot She's just another cake Easy for a good girl to go bad And once we gone (gone) Best believe we gone forever Don't be the reason, don't be the reason You better learn how to treat us right 'Cause once a good girl goes bad We die forever He steady with a flock of 'em, oh yeah Got a girl at home but he don't care Won't care (won't care) All you do is keep me at home Won't let me go nowhere He thinks because I'm at home I won't be gettin' it on And now I'm findin' numbers in the jacket pockets Chicks calling the house non-stop It's getting out of control Finally, I can't take no more He finds a letter on the stairs Saying this is the end I packed my bag and left with your best friend Easy for a good girl to go bad And once we gone (gone) Best believe we gone forever Don't be the reason, don't be the reason You better learn how to treat us right 'Cause once a good girl goes bad We die forever We stay moving around solo Ask us where you at, we don't know And don't care (don't care) All we know is we was at home 'Cause you left us there You got your boys and got gone and left us all alone Easy for a good girl to go bad And once we gone (gone) Best believe we gone forever Don't be the reason, don't be the reason You better learn how to treat us right 'Cause once a good girl goes bad We die forever We gone forever We gone forever

Cause these crazy lights can't stop me I just hold on for dear life Yeah, I can't give up this feeling That I get when looking down from this high When I'm with you When I'm with you Cause these crazy lights can't stop me I just hold on for dear life Yeah, I can't give up this feeling That I get when looking down from this high You can put me on airplane mode You're still gonna think about me You want someone to hold You're still gonna think about me It can take you all night for the rest of your life But until you change your mind You can put me on airplane mode You're still gonna think about me Cause these crazy lights can't stop me I just hold on for dear life Yeah, I can't give up this feeling That I get when looking down from this high Cause these crazy lights can't stop me I just hold on for dear life Yeah, I can't give up this feeling That I get when looking down from this high

Look through the eye of the needle You have to pull at the strand Look through the eye of the needle Hold it in your hand It seems that manipulation Is the game that you play I've got no obligation But you live to take Discovery Take what you need Discovery Take what you need Discovery You walk alone in the shadows Still you thrive in the black The mask you wear, it fools everyone But I watch my back I could forget all the people Who only misunderstand Beyond the good or the evil I could take a stand Discovery Take what you need Discovery Take what you need Discovery Take what you need Discovery Take what you need Discovery

I find it hard to win Back on the ground again I feel like giving in But you're my second wind Don't you ever tire Facing all my fires I don't need no one but you right now So, I say Oh, my friend, you're holding out your hand I take it like an oar from the depth Hey, Lifesaver, I'm drowning in despair But you're fighting for me right until the end. You pull me back to land and save me once again You help me wash away The insane mistakes I made And I see it in your face My only source of grace No, I don't take for granted All the time you've wasted Making sacrifices for a fool So, I say Oh, my friend, you're holding out your hand I take it like an oar from the depth Hey, Lifesaver, I'm drowning in despair But you're fighting for me right until the end. You pull me back to land and save me once again You lift me higher, You hold the fire, You make me strong enough to stay You lift me higher, You hold the fire, Made up stand tall But without you I'd fall Oh, my friend, you're holding out your hand I take it like an oar from the depth Hey, Lifesaver, I'm drowning in despair But you're fighting for me right until the end. You pull me back to land and save me once again You lift me higher, You hold the fire, You make me strong enough to stay!
