Dire Straits Songtext / Lyric

Tearing pages out of my diary

And try to change this story of my life

collapse as a falling statue and turning to dust.



Headed off to a different planet

running through this streets I'm in a state of war

Surrounded by embracing arms

But who can I trust?



Waking up in places I don't know

silver screen showing lies in slow motion

And I realize.



I,

I'm in dire straits

In dire straits because of you.

And you, you're in dire straits

And you've parked against because of me.






We awake blast we are hanging in the air

end it dark cloud's just wont' disappear

We try and we try and it seems like we've lost.

We have burned our house to the ground

we are raveling through the night without a sound

And I realize



That I'm

I'm in dire straits

In dire straits because of you.

Oh and you, you're in dire straits

And you've parked against because of me.



Tearing pages out of my diary

And try to change this story of my life

collapse as a falling statue and turning to dust.



I,

I'm in dire straits

In dire straits because of you.

And you, you're in dire straits

And you've parked against because of me.
