I’m not here to tell you, where you walk I kiss the earth.
Still writing on those prison walls,
Your memory is what I’m worth.
I’m not here to tell you, everything’s going to be alright.
Will never be the one that shows you, where you went wrong and how to make it right.
Just came by to leave a reminder, of days when they were good.
I'm not your keeper just your finder.
Would be your haven if I could.
Can’t believe in forever these days.
Cannot heal a heart that’s lame.
Parting gifts, they’re always the same.
Turn my back and leave, do you think it’s easy?
Give more than we receive, do you think it’s easy?
Find the strength to believe, do think it’s easy?
Understand all we see, do think it’s easy?
All that love bequeathed us, make believe it’s in the past.
Let the trust that lived between us, lead the way to loves that last.
Would never try to hold you to promises given blind.
Relax, let your dreams enfold you, I don’t think your guilt will mind.
Have come your way so much blinder.
Freedom gives us many paths to choose.
Hope to find you being kinder, to those you’d never want to lose.
Can’t believe in forever these days.
Cannot heal a heart that’s lame.
Parting gifts, they’re always the same.
Set the ones we love free, do you think it’s easy?
Give more than we receive, do you think it’s easy?
Find the strength to believe, do think it’s easy?
Take no more than we need, do you think it’s easy?

"Kyss Kyss" is one of the best tracks i have stumbled across in the last few years. With a memorable riff, rhythmical punch and lyrics that are both fresh and occasionally hilarious, this is a peach. Paul Connelly
