music and lyrics by Paul Megna I broke my lover's heart without saying a word she asked me for a child I just pled the third I know I'm not a soldier but this is a time of war Every time I give an inch they always fight for more At night I feel the echo of heartbeats in my head like some empty promise I meant but never said Most times I think I mean well but I live so aimlessly The quickest way to happiness leads far away from me - far away from me Kate was barely twenty & it broke my lover's heart after all these years I've turned deceit into high art It didn't take much liquor after years of being through When faced with mediocrity your poison chooses you I stood there with my hands out waiting for a prize like some eager child with lollipops for eyes I drank the bloody liquid buried deep inside the well The quickest way to happiness will lead you straight to hell - lead you straight to hell LISTEN UP BECAUSE THE BAND IS PLAYING "I'LL GET OVER YOU SOMEHOW" I'll Survive I broke my lover's heart now I sleep on that throne In front of my computer - naked, drunk, alone I'm not looking for forgiveness for the things I haven't done I just want the phone call where they tell me what I've won LISTEN UP BECAUSE THE BAND IS PLAYING "I'LL GET OVER YOU SOMEHOW" I'll Survive __________________________________________________ PM - electric guitar, vocal Matt Durant - rhodes Matt Horn - organ Theo - trumpet Konrad Meissner - drums Don Piper - electric guitar, bv David Roland - electric guitar Len Small - bass
