Lyrics For The Sake Of The Song - Azure Ray

For The Sake Of The Song

Why does she sing these sad songs for me, I’m not the one
To tenderly bring her soft sympathy I’ve just begun
To see my way clear it’s plain, if I stop I will fall
I can lay down a tear for her pain, a tear and that’s all
What does she want me to do?
She says that she that knows moments are rare
I suppose that it’s true
And on she goes to say I don’t care
When she knows that I do
Well, maybe she just has to sing, for the sake of the song
And who do I think that I am to decide that she’s wrong
She’d like to think I was cruel
She knows that’s a lie for I would be
No more than a tool
If I allowed her to cry all over me
Oh, my sorrow is real even though I can’t change my plans
If she could see how I feel then I know she’d understand
Does she actually think I’m to blame?
Does she really believe that some word of mine
Could relieve all her pain?
Can’t she see that she grieves just because
She’s been blindly deceived by her shame?
Well, maybe she just has to sing, for the sake of the song
And who do I think that I am to decide that she’s wrong
I know nothings what it seems
Maybe one day she’ll start to realize
That if she abandons her dreams
Then all the words she can say are only lies
When will she see that the gain is only to lose?
All that she offers me are her chains, and I got to refuse
But it’s only to herself that she’s lied
She likes to pretend it’s something
That she should defend, with her pride
And I don’t intend to stand here
And be the friend from whom she must hide
Well, maybe she just has to sing, for the sake of the song
And who do I think that I am to decide that she’s wrong
Well, maybe she just has to sing, for the sake of the song
