There Is No Night - Mairead Nesbitt

There is no end to a good thing, oh no Cause everyday there is Jah loving, yeah Principalities and power Them planning war on the hour A spiritual wickedness in a high places I saw the children cry I saw the children die I saw much fuss and fights Against the truths and rights Jah love within stronger than there sins Them just can't conquer Jah love within Kepp it up Jah children Livin up your roots Every tree stays up by its roots Make we sing and shout Tell it all about Jah Jah live and reign And he is still the same There is no end to a good thing, oh no Cause everyday there is Jah loving, yeah Principalities and power Them planning war on the hour A spiritual wickedness in a high places Make we sing and shout Tell it all about Jah Jah live and reign And he is still the same A some of them the branches A some a them the leaves A strictly I and I a the roots Kepp it up Jah children Livin up your roots Every tree stays up by its roots

Not everything must end Not every romance must descend Not every lover's pact decays Not every sad mistake replays If you can love my growing gut My rotten teeth and greying hair Then I can guarantee I'll do The same as long as you can bear If you love my little poofy hands My skinny arms and reeking feet The way I dance, the way I eat If you love the morning spots I try and squeeze before you're up to see Each torn ankle, each weak knee But still my moods must swing To solitude I must still cling And you won't love me every day And suffer many a display But plates may smash and doors may slam My comments may be less than kind But that won't mean I've changed my mind I'm a huffy prick the best of times I love to sulk and shout and squeal But please don't doubt the way I feel 'Cause when the Sun burns up the earth Our progeny will raise a can Here's to where it all began And every day I hear the world Is cracking up The end is near I hear we all should live in fear Bullies, burglers, paedophiles Bird flu and passive smoke They're coming! Volcanoes, earthquakes, tidal waves Heart disease and strokes They're coming! Terrorists with homemade poisons And factions everywhere They're coming! They're drinking in the street And they could steal your name And I don't care!

Thank you truth For always being relative Thank you life For changing like the breeze And here's to pain To be human is to live with it Come on death Save the last dance for me The only death Is the one we call reality The only time Is the innocence at hand Rise above Lowly triviality A burden laid down Is a reason to stand Cold ground Lay me down Touch the flame And hear the sound Cold ground Break me down Nothing changed But the way it's bound No reason to fear No reason to doubt No reason to run Stand firm and shout There is no end

Used to be vulnerable Used to be dumb I used to give it all, mmm Hot like a firestone 100 degrees Oh but now I'm so cold when they kiss me They touch me, they freeze They say Why'd you never trust Why'd you never love Why'd you never let 'em in? Why'd you wake up With somebody in your bed again? And say you love them till you leave Why you out so late Dancing with your fake friends Getting in a state? When the good guys come why'd you run away? Why'd you hurt them? Well I'll tell you When you're young and you get your heartbroken And he leaves, leaves the scars open When you can't believe it's over That's when you get a little colder Yeah, when your heart's broken And he leaves, leaves the scars open Drunk cry-crying on his shoulder That's when you get a little colder They'd have to break me down Show me real love Oh but lately these boys, all they do is they fuck my head up They say Why'd you never trust Why'd you never love Why'd you never let 'em in? Why'd you wake up With somebody in your bed again? And say you love them till you leave Don't you wanna stay Don't you wanna try Putting up a fight Deep down you know You know you could make it right Don't just give in Oh no When you're young and you get your heartbroken And he leaves, leaves the scars open When you can't believe it's over That's when you get a little colder Yeah, when your heart's broken And he leaves, leaves the scars open Drunk cry-crying on his shoulder That's when you get a little colder Oh na-na Oh na-na Oh na-na That's when you get a little colder Oh na-na When you let your guard go When you let your heart fall When it starts to hurt oh That's when you get a little colder When you're young and you get your heartbroken And he leaves, leaves the scars open When you can't believe it's over That's when you get a little colder When you're young and you get your heartbroken And he leaves, leaves the scars open When you can't believe it's over That's when you get a little colder Yeah, when your heart's broken And he leaves, leaves the scars open Drunk cry-crying on his shoulder That's when you get a little colder When you let your guard go When you let your heart fall When it starts to hurt oh That's when you get a little colder When you let your guard go When you let your heart fall When it starts to hurt oh That's when you get a little colder
