lyrics

Charlatan
(Mercier/Mercier)

We're taught to offer no resistance, yeah.
So when the wind blows hard you'll break
But never, ever, never bend

There's no if of but
No giving up
When the lights are out
Then you dream of a happy end
You're one of them
You've done the best you can
And you gave your life to ensure it will never end

But you've felt so cold
And you've always been too old
You gave you mind
He took your heart again

I'v read the sign that's on your door, yeah.
It says that you don't want to be worried
No not anymore

There's no if of but
No giving up
When the lights are out
Then you dream of a happy end
You're one of them
You've done the best you can
And you gave your life to ensure it will never end

But you've felt so cold
And you've always been too old
He's gonna tear your soul apart
You gave you mind, he took your heart

A drop of your poison
A cross on your wall
A life of devotion
Less than nothing at all
First of the chosen few
Last of the broken laws
You fight for Jesus to love you
But no one else does
No one else does, yeah
(x2)

You gave you mind, He took your heart again (x4)

To tear your soul apart again
Charlatan…
To tear your soul apart again
Charlatan…
Will tear your soul apart again
Charlatan…
To tear your soul apart again
Charlatan…
