Note: Every artwork is always inspired by music. The music is the voice in the artwork...it is a mood, a feeling...an answer - it is often what you need it to be at that moment. For Talula...in this game of life; its usually the truth.


It seems as if the shorter the days
the louder the cries
none the less broken
none the more wise.
Where have you all gone?
What was it that I did so wrong?
Is it I tried too hard?
or that I tried at all
because I'm none the better
from the fall
and in the shadows where you lay
I hope that sadness never comes your way
that love never lets you down
that fear doesn't stall your path and
that understanding does not turn to wrath.

When it hurts so bad, when it hurts so bad
Why's it feel so good?
When it hurts so bad, when it hurts so bad
Why's it feel so good?

I loved real, real hard once
But the love wasn't returned
Found out the man I'd die for
He wasn't even concerned
I tried, and I tried, and I tried
To keep him in my life
I cried, and I cried, and I cried
But I couldn't make it right
But I, I loved the young man
And if you've ever been in love,
Then you'd understand

What you want might make you cry
What you need might pass you by
If you don't catch it,
If you don't catch it,
And what you need ironically
Will turn out what you want to be
If you just let it,
If you just let it

See, I thought this feeling
It was all that I had
But how could this be love
And make me feel so bad?
Gave up my power,
I existed for you
But whoever knew the voodoo you'd do?
But I, I loved the young man
And if you've ever been in love you'd understand
What you want might make you cry
What you need might pass you by
If you don't catch it
And what you need ironically
Will turn out what you want to be
If you just let it,
What you want might make you cry
What you need might pass you by
If you don't catch it
And what you need ironically
Will turn out what you want to be
If you just let it,
If you just let it
