Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
A life on every face and that's a change
Till I'm finally left with an eight
Tell me to relax, I just stare
Maybe I don't know if I should change
A feeling that we share, it's a shame
It's a shame, such a shame
Number me in haste, such a shame
This eagerness to change, it's a shame
The dice decide my fate and that's a shame
In these trembling hands my faith
Tells me to react, I don't care
Maybe it's unkind that I should change
A feeling that we share, it's a shame
Such a shame, number me with rage
It's a shame, such a shame
Number me in haste, such a shame
This eagerness to change, such a shame
Tell me to relax, I just stare
Maybe I don't know if I should change
A feeling that we share, it's a shame
Such a shame, number me with rage
It's a shame, such a shame
Number me in haste, it's a shame
Such a shame, write it across my name
It's a shame, such a shame
Number me in haste, such a shame
This eagerness to change, such a shame

Lyrics :
Such a shame
to believe in escape.
'A life on every face'
But that's a change,
until I'm finally left with an '8'.
Tell me to relax - I just stare.
Maybe I don't know
if I should change
a feeling that we share.
It's a shame
(such a shame)
Number me with rage
It's a shame (such a shame)
Number me in haste (such a shame)
This eagerness to change
It's a shame
The dice decide my fate
that's a shame
In these trembling hands my faith
tells me to react
"I don't care"
Maybe it's unkind if I should change
a feeling that we share.
It's a shame
(such a shame)
Number me with rage
It's a shame (such a shame)
Number me in haste (such a shame)
This eagerness to change
Such a shame
Tell me to relax - I just stare.
Maybe I don't know
if I should change
a feeling that we share.
It's a shame
(such a shame)
Number me with rage
It's a shame (such a shame)
Number me in haste It's a shame (such a shame)
Write across my name (such a shame)
This eagerness to change
Such a shame

Such a shame to believe in escape
A life on every face
And that's a change
'Til I'm finally left with an eight
Tell me to relax, I just stare
Maybe I don't know if I should change

It's a shame
Number me with rage
It's a shame

This eagerness to change
It's a shame
The dice decide my fate
That's a shame
In these trembling hands
My faith tells me to react, I don't care
Maybe it's unkind that I should change
A feeling that we share

Не "РИП Марка Холлиса", а "РИП, Марк Холлис". РИП (R.I.P.) - это аббревиатура от Rest In Peace - Покойся с миром.
