Bad ( Live)

U2 · Other Songs - U2

If you twist and turn away

It you tear yourself in two again

If I could, you know, I would

If I could, I would let it go

Surrender, dislocate



If I could throw this lifeless lifeline to the wind

Leave this heart of clay

See you break, break away

Into the night, through the rain

To the half light, through the flame



If I could through myself, set your spirit free

I'd lead your heart away

See you break, break away

Into the light, through the day



So let it go and so fade away

To let it go and so fade away

Wide awake, I'm wide awake

I'm not sleeping, oh no, no, no

I'm not sleeping



If they should ask, well, maybe

They'd tell me what I should say

True colors fly in blue and black

Blue silken sky and burning flag

Colors crash, collide in blood-shot eyes



If I could, you know I would

If I could, I would let it go



This desperation, separation

Condemnation

Revelation, in temptation

Isolation, desolation, isolation



Let it go and so fade away

To let it go and so fade, fade, fade away

Oh, I'll fade away, hey, hey

I'll fade away, no, no, no, no, fade away



Wide awake, I'm wide awake

Wide awake, I'm wide awake

Wide awake, I'm not sleeping

Oh no, no, no

I'm not sleeping



Come on down

Come on down

Come on down, sing it

Come on down
