The Whammer Strikes Out Randy Newman

Live another day, climb a little higher
Find another reason to stay
Ashes in your hands, mercy in your eyes
If you're searching for a silent sky
You won't find it here
Look another way
You won't find it here
So die another day
The coldness of his words, the message in his silence
"Face the candle to the wind"
The distance in my voice isn't leaving you a choice
So if you're looking for a time to run away
You won't find it here
Look another way
You won't find it here
So try another day
They took pictures of our dreams
Ran to hide behind the stairs
And said maybe
When it's right for you, they'll fall
But if they don't come down
Resist the need to pull them in
And throw them away
Better to save the mystery
Than surrender to the secret, no
You won't find it here
Look another way
You won't find it here
So try another day
