Минус Brandon Flowers - The Desired Effect

Текст (слова) песни Brandon Flowers - The Desired Effect:

She was raised a protestant
I was raised by wolves
Both of us saw dignity in vain
Stretching out in paradise
It wasn't in the cards
See, neither of us were ready for the rain
Guess I was caught off-guard
When I heard the news last week
Ran into a friend of mine
With the word on the street
That the life that you cose to lead
Had the desired effect
That you hit the ground running
The day that you left
That you played for every side
That you'd gone for every kill
But I don't believe it
And I never will
I never will
Maybe it's all dogs and bones
Chasing every tail
And howling at the injustice of the night
And if I misjudged you
Oh honey that's on me
But I really do hope you'd find a way
To get what you need
And the life that you chose to lead
Had the desired effect
That you hit the ground running
The day that you left
That you played for every side
That you'd gone for every kill
But I don't believe it
And I never will
Are you wondering where it all goes?
Are you living the way you should?
Are you taking the time to listen?
Is it doing you any good?
Are you wrestling with the demons?
Are you moving the party forward in your time?
(Take your time, any old time)
Are you looking to change the world
Or have you already changed your mind?
Are you keeping the ten commandments
Or are you living them all behind?
Are you practicing your pirouettes
Or are you going in blind
This time?
Did the life that you chose to lead
Have the desired effect?
Did you hit the ground running
The day that you left?
Are you playing for every side?
Are you going for every kill?
But I don't believe it
And I never will
The desired effect
