unknown

Look at monica walking in her sleep
Look at monica running through the fields
In her dream, so serene
Monica, monica

Hush, don't you say a word
Did you see the smile she made today?

Look at monica
Look at monica

Morning's coming ever so fast
Shadow's reality's cast
More like a dream that just won't last

Look at monica walking in her sleep
Look at monica running through the fields
In her dream, so serene
Monica, monica

Please keep quiet, let her sleep
Can't you see the smile she made today?

I heard your mother died
Just a few days ago
And tears fill your eyes with grief and sorrow
Cause you to question why because you don't know
If there comes a time when we all, when we all must go

Chorus:
Better off dead, if you're going to believe
Better off dead, in some painful (painful) memories
Better off dead, for truly you'll be free
Then to get down on your knees

Can you continue to go on and ignore?
A most certain fate you have grown, grown to abhor
If what you believe is true
And you have no remorse
No matter what you do, no matter what you do,
Oh, you'll be on, you'll be on the same course

Chorus

Can someone tell me why i'm not better off dead?
I no longer deny these thoughts filling my head
I'm left to decide for this path i've been led
If there's more to life than just death

(solo)
Chorus

It's alright, i'm only bleeding

Now's not the time to say goodbye
And i'm not the kind to question why
Well i don't feel very well, and it's getting cold as hell
It won't be the same, can't you tell?

Don't leave me alone
Don't leave me on my own
I'm so afraid
Why can't you stay?
Just don't leave me alone
How long will my song be wrong?

Doing the things i should have known
Only to reap what i have sown
Jesus, please

Don't leave me alone
Don't leave me on my own
I'm on my knees
Forgive me please
Just don't leave me alone
How long will my song be wrong?

(keyboard solo)

Don't leave me alone
Don't leave me on my own
I'm so afraid
Why can't you stay?
Just don't leave, don't leave... me alone
How long will my song... be... wrong?

Not really lookin' for, for nothing special,
Just someplace that i can call my own,
I'm growing tired of, of running wild,
It's time i settled down

Bridge:
There seems to be some lights on,
But ain't nobody home
I think i see some lights on,
But there ain't nobody home

Ain't being choosy, but
Don't want no floozy,
And that's not much to ask


Chorus:
She's a nice place to visit (3x)
But i wouldn't want to live her,
Nice place to visit
Hey, is anybody home?

Seeing is believing,
But looks can be deceiving,
What you get ain't always what you see
I like what' s down there,
But no one is upstairs,
I think there's bats in the belfry

Chorus

I don't know what's come over me,
I'm blinded by the scenery,
Nice place to visit,
I don't know what i'm gonna do
I'm coming back because of you,
Nice place to visit, visit, visit...

Bridge

This big bad wolf knows
Which way the wind blows,
And which little piggy's house is made of brick,
Must have vacated, or mislocated,
There's just toys, toys in the attic

Chorus (hey, is anybody home?)
Knock, knock, who's there?
She's a nice place to visit (2x)
