Victim or the Crime/Foolish Heart (Live at Bayfront Center, St. Petersburg, FL, October 16, 1988)

Lyrics

[Victim or the Crime] [Verse 1] Patience runs out on the bunny The dark side hires another soul Did he steal his fate or earn it? Was he force fed? Did he learn it? Whatever happened to his precious self control? Like him, I'm tired of trying to heal This tomcat heart with which I'm blessed Is destruction loving's twin? Must I choose to lose or win? Maybe when my turn comes I will have guessed These are the horns of the dilemma What truth this proof against all lies? When sacred fails before profane The wisest man is deemed insane Even the purest of romantics compromise [Chorus] What fixation feeds this fever? As the full moon pales and climbs Am I living truth or rank deceiver? Am I the victim or the crime? Am I the victim or the crime? Am I the victim or the crime, or the crime? [Instrumental Break] [Verse 2] And so I wrestle with the angel To see who'll reap the seeds I sow Am I the driver or the driven? Will I be damned to be forgiven? Is there anybody here but me who needs to know? [Chorus] What it is that feeds this fever As the full moon pales and climbs? Am I living truth or rank deceiver? Am I the victim or the crime? Am I the victim or the crime? Am I the victim or the crime? Am I the victim or the crime, or the crime? [Instrumental] [Foolish Heart] [Verse 1] Carve your name Carve your name in ice and wind Never flow Look to where the river ends Or where the river starts [Chorus] Everything that's in you You think to be your part Never give your love, my friend Unto a foolish heart Unto a foolish heart [Verse 2] Learn to leap Leap from ledges high and wild Learn to speak Speak with wisdom like a child Directly to the heart [Chorus] Crown yourself the king of clowns Or stand way back apart But never give your love, my friend Unto a foolish heart Unto a foolish heart [Verse 3] Shun a friend Shun a brother and a friend Never look Never look around the bend Or check the weather chart [Chorus] Everything within in you You think could be your part But never give your love, my friends Unto a foolish heart Unto a foolish heart [Bridge] A foolish heart will call you... Turn around and blame you For the way you went astray A foolish heart will cost you sleep And most make you curse A selfish heart is trouble But a foolish heart is worse [Instrumental Break] [Verse 4] Bite the hand Bite the hand that bakes your bread Dare to land Where the angels fear to tread 'Til you are torn apart [Chorus] Everything that... ...part Never give your love, my friends Unto a foolish heart Unto a foolish heart [Outro] Unto a foolish heart Unto a foolish heart Unto a foolish heart Unto a foolish heart [Instrumental]
