Tables turned again and you my friend
You and I face each other all time and time again
I know it's sometimes hard, but knowing just
that we will get along until we're old and gray
and huddled up and doubled up we'll sit
And laugh of times were hard
Laugh of times when we thought all of it would
end
It all was over, then again
And though all that I know is this way
And to leave you out of life
Oh my friend…
It will be you until the end with me, always
Always…
Ah ah will, always
Yeah ah, yeah ah, yeah
Always

Come and see
I swear by now I'm playing time against my troubles
I'm coming slow but speeding
Do you wish a dance and while
I'm in the front
The play on time is won
But the difficulty is coming here
I will go in this way
And find my own way out
I won't tell you to stay
But I'm coming to much more
Me
All at once the ghosts come back
Reeling in you now
What if they came down crushing
Remember when I used to play for
all of the loneliness that nobody
notices now
I'm begging slow I'm coming here
Only waiting I wanted to stay
I wanted to play,
I wanted to love you
I'm only this far
And only tomorrow leads my way
I'm coming waltzing back and
moving into your head
Please, I wouldn't pass this by
I wouldn't take any more than
What sort of man goes by
I will bring water
Why won't you ever be glad
It melts into wonder
I came in praying for you
Why won't you run
in the rain and play
Let the tears splash all over you
All
along the watchtower
There must be some way out of here
Said the joker to the thief
There's too much confusion
I can't get no relief
Business
men they
Drink my wine
There plowmen dig my earth
None of them along the line
Know what any of it's worth
No
reason to get excited
The theif he kindly spoke
There are many among us
Who feel that life is but a joke
But
you and I we've been through all that, yes we
have
And this is not our fate
So let us not talk falsely now
The hour is getting late
And
All Along the Watchtower
Princes kept the view
While all the women all the women all the women
came and went
Barefoot servants too
Outside in the cold distance
A wild cat did growl, la la la
Two riders, two riders approaching
The wind began to howl
The
thief he take
My money take
The thief he take
My money take
Am
I insane
Auf wiedersehen
Am I insane
The thief is safe
No
reason to get excited
American
Baby
If these walls came crumbling down
Fell so hard to make us lose our faith
From what's left you'd figure it out
still make lemonade taste like a sunny day
Stay
beautiful baby
I hope you stay American Baby
American Baby
Nobody's
laughing now
God's grace lost and the devil is proud
but I've been walking for a thousand miles
If for one last time I could see you smile
I,
I hold hold on to you
You bring me hope I'll see you soon
and if i don't see you whoa
I'm afraid we've lost the way
Stay
beautiful baby
I hope you stay American Baby
American Baby
I
hold on to you
You lift me up and always will
I see you in light
Hope I don't get left behind
I hold hold on to you
You bring me hope I'll see you soon
and if i don't see you whoa
I'm afraid we've lost the way
Stay
beautiful baby
I hope you stay American Baby
American Baby
Stay beautiful baby
I hope you stay American Baby
American Baby
American Baby
American Baby
Stay
An’
another thing
Rain for me oh you but called me
It's my broken heart just where you leave me
Now I say to you, "Oooh boy."
Weight
on my head
You won't go up, oh
Weight on my head
Oooh ooh my babe
Stay
a minute just to hear you waitin'
And no one to confine her
Sweet and tender won't you go out again
Oh,
weight on my head
Wouldn't you
Rain on my head
Oh, someone take off a
Weight all alone
Ahh,
I met a girl recently
All in a sudden, all a suddenly
Nobody deal for the woe of the world
Wait, all a sudden, all a suddenly
It will all would be, all would be over
Wait,
come on rain on my head
Water water!
Dates
Many, many dates how you all die
Oh
rain money
Grow a war at heart
And in the fire
One out of a million
Wait

Touch your look on me
Denial, denial
Touch your work with me
Do not deny
Rain on my head
Rain on my head
Rain on my head
Rain on my head
Angel
I call you up
You pick up
You call my bluff
On the cards of love
You hold to close
Your hands to your chest
I can’t read your eyes
But I confess
It’s lonely far from you
Even when you’re right by me
It’s only why I wait for you
Take my hand yeah
Why
do I beg like a child
For your candy
Why do I come after you
Like I do
I love you
Whatever you are I swear
You’ll be my angel
You
I
play my cards
Best I can
But I lose my luck
When you’re not here
My darling heart
Won’t you please give in
I may be strong
But I want you back again
When you’re not here
It’s hard to pretend
It’s all alright
Again
When you’re not here love
It’s hard to pretend
It’s all alright….still
Why
do I beg like a child
For your candy
Why do I run after you
Like I do
I love you
Whatever you are I swear
You’ll be my angel
You
Watch
the deck
Count your cards
Makes no sense
That I’m always losing
When you’re gone
Why
do I beg like a child
For your candy
Why do I run after you
Like I do
I love you
Whatever you are I swear
You’ll be my angel
You
When you’re gone
Ants
marching
He wakes up in the morning
Does his teeth bite to eat and he's rolling
Never changes a thing
The week ends the week begins
She thinks, we look at each other
Wondering what the other is thinking
But we never say a thing
These crimes between us grow deeper
Goes to visit his mommy
She feeds him well his concerns
He forgets them
And remembers being small
Playing under the table and dreaming
Take
these chances
Place them in a box until a quieter time
Lights down, you up and die
Driving in on this highway
All these cars and upon the sidewalk
People in every direction
No words exchanged
No time to exchange
And
all the little ants are marching
Red and black antennas waving
They all do it the same
They all do it the same way
Candyman
teasing the thoughts of a
Sweet tooth tortured by the weight loss
Programs cutting the corners
Loose end, loose end, cut, cut
On the fence, could not to offend
Cut, cut, cut, cut
Take
these chances
Place them in a box until a quieter time
Lights down, you up and die
Baby
Baby, it's alright
Stop your crying
Now
Nothing
is here to stay
Everything has to begin and end
A ship in a bottle won't sail
All we can do is dream that the wind will blow
us across the water
A ship in a bottle set sail
Baby,
it's alright
Stop your crying
Now
There
was a weakling man
Who dreamed he was strong as a hurricane
A ship in a bottle set sail
He took a deep breath and blew across the world
He watched everything crumble
Woke up a weakling again
Some
might tell you there's no hop in hand
Just because they feel hopeless
But you don't have to be a thing like that
You be a ship in a bottle set sail
Baby,
it's alright
Stop your crying
Now
It's alright
So stop your crying, now
Be a ship in a bottle set sail
Bartender
If I go before I’m old
Oh brother of mine please don’t forget me
if I go
Bartender please, fill my glass for me
With the wine you gave Jesus that set him free,
after three days in the ground
Oh
and if I die before my time
Oh sweet sister of mine please don’t regret
me if I go
Bartender please, fill my glass for me
With the wine you gave Jesus that set him free
after three days in the ground
Bartender please, fill my glass for me
With the wine you gave Jesus that set him free
after three days in the ground
I’m
on bended knee I pray Bartender please
Oh when I was young I didn’t think about
it,
But now I can’t get it out of my mind
I’m on bended knee please father please
Oh
if all this gold, should steal my soul away
Oh dear mother of mine, please redirect me if
this gold
Bartender you see, this wine that’s drinking
me
Came from the vine that strung Judas from the
devil’s tree roots
Deep deep in the ground
Bartender
you see, this wine that’s drinking me
Came from the vine that strung Judas from the
devil’s tree roots
Deep deep in the ground
I’m on bended knee I pray Bartender please
I’m on bended knee please mama please
Oh when I was young I didn’t think about
it,
But now I just want to run and hide
I’m on bended knee Bartender please
Best
of what’s around
Hey my friend
It seems your eyes are troubled
Care to share your times with me
Would you say you're feeling low and so
A good idea would be to get it off your mind
See,
you and me
Have a better time than most can dream
Have it better than the best
And so can pull on through
Whatever tears at us
Whatever holds us down
And if nothing can be done
We'll make the best of what's around
Turns
out not where but who you're with
That really matters
And hurts not much when you're around
If
you hold on tight
To what you think is your thing
You may find you're missing all the rest
She run up into the light surprised
Her arms are open
Her mind's eye is
Seeing
things from a
Clearer side than most can dream
On a better road I feel
So you could say she's safe
Whatever tears at her
Whatever holds her down
And if nothing can be done
She'll make the best of what's around
Turns
out not where but what you think
That really matters
And hurts not much when you're around
Big
Eyed Fish
Look at this big - eyed fish swimming in the sea
oh
How it dreams to be a bird swoop and diving through
the breeze
So one day caught a big old wave up on to the
beach
Now he’s dead you see beneath the sea is
where a fish should be
But
oh God
Under the weight of life
Things seem brighter on the other side
You
see this crazy man decided not to breathe
He turned red and blue - purple, colorful indeed
No matter how his friends begged and pleaded the
man would not concede
And now he’s dead you see the silly man
should know you got to breathe
But
oh God
Under the weight of life
Things seem brighter on the other side
Oh
God
Under the weight of life
Things seem so much better on the other side
No
way, no way
No way out of here
You
see the little monkey sitting up in his monkey
tree
One day decided to climb down and run off to the
city
But look at him now lost tired living in the street
As good as dead you see what a monkey does - stay
up your tree
But
oh God
Under the weight of life
Things seem brighter on the other side
Oh
God
Under the weight of life
Things seem so much better on the other side
No
way, no way, no way
No way out of here
Rain
in my dreams
Fall
away
Busted
stuff
Not enough,never too much, baby look just like
love
Rolling stone gathers no moss but leave a trail
of busted stuff
You know she’s going to leave my broken
heart behind her
I’ll take what she’s giving up
You know she’s going to leave my broken
heart behind her
I’ll take what she’s giving up yeah
Moving
to kiss, sweet sugar lips, baby look just like
love
Without a care she floats above me, she got me
down here looking up
You know she’s going to leave my broken
heart behind her
I’ll take what she’s giving up
You know she’s going to leave this broken
man behind
She’s the one for me
When
she move, she move so cool got me feel just like
a fool
But inside is where the devil rides woman look

You know she’s going to leave my broken
heart behind her
I’ll take what she’s giving up
You know she going to leave this broken man behind
She’s the one for me
You

Captain
Crazy as I may make my way through this world
It’s for no one but me to say what direction
I shall turn
I am the captain of this ship
Curious hands and fingertips
Day after day how I long for you my love how I
long
Strange
but it seems like there’s a mutiny brewing
inside me
But I don’t want your pity only the promise
that you’ll stay with me tonight
Now I am the captain of this ship
Curious hands and fingertips
Day after day oh how I long for you like crazy
Oh

Oh my love - come now lets go again
Oh our love - everything
Oh won’t play with me again got all night
Same
old song won’t you come stay all my life

Oh how could I even try to fight after falling
into your arms?
Oh mesmerized by your smile the way it lights
up under your eyes
Oh how could I even try love won’t you stay

Oh

Oh my love - come now lets go again
Oh our love - everything
Oh won’t play with me again we got all night
The

Christmas
song
She was his girl; he was her boyfriend
She be his wife; take him as her husband
A surprise on the way, any day, any day
One healthy little giggling dribbling baby boy
The wise men came three made their way
To shower him with love
While he lay in the hay
Shower him with love love love
Love love love
Love love is all around
Not very much of his childhood was known
Kept his mother Mary worried
Always out on his own
He met another Mary for a reasonable fee, less
than
Reputable as known to be
His
heart was full of love love love
Love love love
Love love is all around
When Jesus Christ was nailed to the his tree
Said "oh, Daddy-o I can see how it all soon
will be
I came to shed a little light on this darkening
scene
Instead I fear I spill the blood of my children
all around"
The
blood of our children all around
The blood of our children all around
The blood of our children all around
So the story goes, so I'm told
The people he knew were
Less than golden hearted
Gamblers and robbers
Drinkers and jokers, all soul searchers
Like you and me
Rumors
insisited he soon would be
For his deviations
Taken into custody by the authorities
Less informed than he.
Drinkers and jokers. all soul searchers
Searching for love love love
Love love love
Love love is all around
Preparations
were made
For his celebration day
He said "eat this bread and think of it as
me
Drink this wine and dream it will be
The blood of our children all around
The blood of our children all around"
The blood of our children all around
Father
up above, why in all this anger have you fill
Me up with love
Fill me love love love
Love love love
Love love
And the blood of our children all around
Cortez
The Killer
Came dancing across the water
His galleons and guns
Looking for the new world
Palace in the sun
On
the shore lay Montezuma
His coca leaves and pearls
In his halls he often wondered
The secrets of the worlds
And
his subjects gathered 'round him
Like the leaves around a tree
In their clothes of many colors
For the angry gods to see
And
the women all were beautiful
And the men stood straight and strong
They offered life in sacrifice
So that others could go on
Hate
was just a legend
And war was never known
The people worked together
And they lifted many stones
They
carried them to the flatlands
And they died along the way
They built up with their bare hands
What we still can't build today
And
I know she's living there
She loves me to this day
And I can't still remember when
Or how I lost my way
Cortez,
Cortez
He came dancing across the water
Cortez, Cortez
What a killer
Dancing across the water
Came dancing across the water
Cortez, Cortez
Dancing across the water (4x)
Cortez, Cortez
Dancing across the water (2x)
He came dancing across the water
Crash
You've got your ball
you've got your chain
Tied to me tight tie me up again
Who's got their claws
in you my friend
Into your heart I'll beat again
Sweet like candy to my soul
Sweet you rock
and sweet you roll
Lost for you I'm so lost for you
You come crash into me
And I come into you,
I come into you
In a boys dream
In a boys dream
Touch
your lips just so I know
In your eyes, love, it glows so
I'm bare-boned and crazy for you
When you come crash
into me, baby
And I come into you
In a boys dream
In a boys dream
If I've gone overboard
Then I'm begging you
to forgive me
In my haste
When I'm holding you so girl...
close to me
Oh
and you come crash
into me, baby
And I come into you
Hike up your skirt a little more
and show the world to me
Hike up your skirt a little more
and show your world to me
In a boys dream... In a boys dream
Oh
I watch you there
through the window
And I stare at you
You wear nothing but you
wear it so well
Tied up and twisted,
the way I'd like to be
For you, for me, come crash
into me
Crush
Crazy how it feels tonight
Crazy how you make it all alright love
You crush me with the things you do
I do for you anything too
Sitting, smoking, feeling high
In this moment it feels so right
Lovely lady
I am at your feet
God I want you so badly
I wonder this
Could tomorrow be
So wondrous as you there sleeping
Let's go drive 'til morning comes
Watch the sunrise
To fill our souls up
Drink some wine 'til we get drunk
It's crazy I'm thinking
Just knowing that the world is round
Here I'm dancing on the ground
Am I right side up or upside down
Is this real or am I dreaming
Lovely lady
Let me drink you please
I won't spill a drop, I promise you
Lying under this spell you cast on me
Each moment
The more I love you
Crush me
Come on
It's crazy I'm thinking
Just knowing that the world is round
Here I'm dancing on the ground
Am I right side up or upside down
Is it real or am I dreaming
Lovely lady I will treat you sweetly
Adore you
I mean
You crush me
It's times like these
When my faith I feel
And I know
How I love you
Come on
Lady
It's crazy I'm thinking
Just as long as you're around
And here I'll be dancing on the ground
Am I right side up or upside down
To each other we'll be facing
By love we'll beat back the pain
we've found
You know
I mean to tell you all the things I've been thinking
deep inside
My friend
With each moment the more I love you
Crush me
Come on
Lady
So much you have given love
That I would give you back
Again and again
Meaning I'll hold you
And please
Let me always
Cry
freedom
How can I turn away
Brother/Sister go dancing
through my head
Human as to human
The future is no place
To place your better days
Cry freedom, cry
From a crowd 10,000 wide
Hope laid upon hope
That this crowd will not subside
Let this flag burn to dust
And a new a fair design be raised
While we wait head in hands,
hands in prayer
And fall into a dreamless sleep again
And we wave our hands
Hands
and feet are all alike
But gold between divide us
Hands and feet are all alike
But fear between divide us
All slip away
There
was a window and by it stood
A mirror in which
he could see himself
He thought of something
Something he had never had but
hoped would come along
Cry freedom, cry
From deep inside
Where we are all confined
While we wave hands in fire
Wave our hands
Hands
and feet are all alike
But gold between divide us
Hands and feet are all alike
But fear between divide us,
Slip away
In this room stood a little child
And in this room this little child
she would remain
Until someone might decide
To dance this little child
across this hall
Into a cold, dark, space
Where she might never trace her
way across this crooked mile
Across this crooked page
Cry freedom, cry
From deep inside where
we are all confined
Till we wave our hands
How
can I turn away
Brother/Sister go dancing
through my head
Human as to human
The future is no place
To place your better days
Hands
and feet are all alike
But gold between divide us
Hands and feet are all alike
But fear between divide us
Hands and feet are all alike
Hear what I say
Hear what I say
Oh, so be it
How
can I turn away
Brother/Sister go dancing through my head
Human as to human
The future is no place
To place your better days
Dancing
nancies
Could I have been
A parking lot attendant
Could I have been
A millionaire in Bel Air
Could I have been Lost somewhere in Paris
Could I have been
Your little brother
Could I have been
Anyone other than me
Could I have been
Anyone other than me
Could I have been
Anyone other than me
Could I have been
Anyone
He
stands touch his hair his shoes untied
Tongue gaping stare
Could I have been a magnet for money?
Could I have been anyone other than me?
Twenty
three and so tired of life
Such a shame to throw it all away
The images grow darker still
Could I have been anyone other than me? Then I
Look
up at the sky
My mouth is open wide, lick and taste
What's the use in worrying, what's the use in
hurrying
Turn, turn we almost become dizzy
Iam
who I am who I am who am I
Requesting some enlightenment
Could I have been anyone other than me?
Sing
and dance I'll play for you tonight
And thrill at it all
Dark clouds may hang on me sometimes
But I'll work it out then I
Look
up at the sky
My mouth is open wide, lick and taste
What's the use in worrying, what's the use in
hurrying
Turn, turn we almost become dizzy
Falling
out of a world of lies
Could I have been dancing nancy
Could I have been anyone other than me?
Deed
is done
Oh, Pray
Oh, Pray
Oh, so I'm praying all at night
And I wake up praying the whole daylight
I pray to you, and hear my request
I ask of you to save this baby
Oh, look at the girl
Awful inside, is cancer-eaten, is life-deprived,
And if so by who? Could it be you?
I see no need for a baby's wisdom for you
Oh,
God, the girl, all yellow turned
Her cheeks are swollen, and soul is burned
Oh, but the girl, the girl is gone
And the deed is done, oh it must be wrong
Oh
and I pray, my prayer's not heard
Could it be your deaf, deaf to mortal words?
Oh, and see her pain, and drain and drain
Could you be deaf, and blind my friend?
Oh, and so we hold
Can* you not hear? Can* you not see?
And if with words
You could change the way things are arranged
Surely you'd be speaking, *seaking* no change
Oh, but the girl, deaf, dumb, and blind
From the cancer burning deep down inside
Oh, but the deed is done
And the girl is gone
I see no faith
That I have won
*Check
it out, check it out, yeah*
Well,
you may find your religion
You may find your attraction
You may go, for me the girl is gone
Oh,
you may find you're faithful
You may find out the reaction
But to me, the baby's gone
The baby...
Hey... hey...
Digging
a Ditch
Run to your dreaming when you’re alone
Unplug the TV and turn off your phone
Get heavy on with digging your ditch
Cause I’m
Digging
a ditch where madness gives a bit
Digging a ditch where silence lives
Digging a ditch for when I’m old
Digging this ditch my story’s told
Where
all these troubles weigh down on me will rise
Run to your dreaming when you’re alone
Where all these questions spinning round my head
will die, will die, will die
Run
to your dreaming when you’re alone
Unplug the TV and turn off your phone
Get heavy on with digging your ditch
Cause I’m
Digging
a ditch where madness gives a bit
Digging a ditch where silence lives
Digging a ditch for when I’m through
Digging this ditch I’m digging for you
Where
all these worries wear down on me will rise
Where all these habits pull heavy at my heart
will die
Run
to your dreaming when you’re alone
Not what you should be or what you’ve become
Just get heavy on with digging your ditch
Cause I’m
Digging
a ditch where madness gives a bit
Digging a ditch where silence lives
Where all these disappointments that grow angry
out of me will rise
Will die, will die, will die
Run
to your dreaming when you’re alone
Unplug the TV and turn off your phone
Get heavy on with digging your ditch
Dodo
Once upon a time
When the world was just a pancake
Fears would arise
That if you went too far, you'd fall
But
with the
Passing of time
It all became more of a ball
We're as sure of that
As we all once were when the world was flat
So
I wonder this
As life billows smoke inside my head
This little game
When I think it should
Why
would you play by the rules?
Who did, you did, you
Who did, you did, you
When
was it killed
The very last dodo bird
And was she aware
She was the very last one
So
I wonder this
As life billows smoke inside my head
This little game
When I think it should
Why
would you play by the rules?
Who did, you did, you
Who did, you did, you
Say who did, you did, you
If
all the things that you are saying now
Were true enough but still what was I worrying
around
We can work it out
We can work it out
Oh
I wonder this
As life billows smoke inside my head
This little game
When I think it should
Why
would you play by the rules?
Who did, you did, you
Who did, you did, you
You say who did, you did, you
Don’t
drink the water
Come out come out
No use in hiding
Come now come now
Can you not see?
There's no place here
What were you expecting
Not room for both
Just room for me
So you will lay your arms down
Yes I will call this home
Away
away
You have been banished
Your land is gone
And given me
And here I will spread my wings
Yes I will call this home
What's this you say
You feel a right to remain
Then stay and I will bury you
What's that you say
Your father's spirit still lives in this place
I will silence you
Here's
the hitch
Your horse is leaving
Don't miss your boat
It's leaving now
And as you go I will spread my wings
Yes I will call this home
I have no time to justify to you
Fool you're blind, move aside for me
All I can say to you my new neighbor
Is you must move on or I will bury you
Now
as I rest my feet by this fire
Those hands once warmed here
I have retired them
I can breathe my own air
I can sleep more soundly
Upon these poor souls
I'll build heaven and call it home
'Cause you're all dead now
I live with my justice
I live with my greedy need
I live with no mercy
I live with my frenzied feeding
I live with my hatred
I live with my jealousy
I live with the notion
That I don't need anyone but me
Don't drink the water
There's blood in the water
Dream
girl
I would dig a hole all the way to China
unless of course I was there
Then I'd dig my way home
If by diggin I could steal... the wind from the
sails
Of the greedy men who rule the world
Still
you're my best friend
And after a good good drunk...you and me
Wake up and make love after a deep sleep
where I was dreaming
I was dreaming of a
Dream Girl
I
was feeling like a creep
as I watched you asleep
face down in the grass in the park
in the middle of a hot afternoon
Your top was untied and I thought how nice
It'll be to follow the sweat down your spine
You're
like my best friend
After a good good drunk...you and me
Wake up and make love after a deep sleep
where I was dreaming
I was dreaming of a
Dream Girl
(bridge)
caught
by a wave
my back to the ocean
it knocks me off my feet and
just as i find my footing
here you come again
Dream Girl
Dream Girl
Dreaming
tree
Standing here
The old man said to me
"Long before these crowded streets
Here stood my dreaming tree"
Below it he would sit
For hours at a time
Now progress takes away
What forever took to find
Now he's falling hard
He feels the falling dark
How he longs to be
Beneath his dreaming tree
Conquered fear to climb
A moment froze in time
When the girl who first he kissed
Promised him she'd be his
Remembered mother's words
There beneath the tree
"No matter what the world
You'll always be my baby"
Mommy come quick
The dreaming tree has died
The air is growing thick
A fear he cannot hide
The dreaming tree has died
Oh have you no pity
This thing I do
I do not deny it
All through this smile
As crooked as danger
I do not deny
I know in my mind
I would leave you now
If I had the strength to
I would leave you up
To your own devices
Will you not talk
Can you take pity
I don't ask much
But won't you speak
Please
From the start
She knew she had it made
Easy up 'til then
For sure she'd make the grade
Adorers came in hordes
To lay down in her wake
She gave it all she had
But treasures slowly fade
Now she's falling hard
She feels the fall of dark
How did this fall apart
She drinks to fill it up
A smile of sweetest flowers
Wilted so and soured
Black tears stain the cheeks
That once were so admired
She thinks when she was small
There on her father's knee
How he had promised her
"You'll always be my baby"
"Daddy come quick
The dreaming tree has died
I can't find my way home
There is no place to hide
The dreaming tree has died"
Oh if I had the strength...
Take me back
Save me please
Dreams
of our fathers
I’m choking I’m choking
On the smoke from this burning house
I claw and I scrape
But I can’t seem to get out oh
But who the who is this
That’s scratching from the ground
It’s my world too
But who’s gold is this I’m digging
out
When
we go where we go
When we’re dead
Is the verdict still out
Do we get into line
To line up with those long dead now
With muffled tears of sorrow
For bones underground
This is our time yes it is
Without or with this shadow of doubt
Don’t
want to wake up
Lost in the dreams of our fathers
It’s such a waste child
To live and die for the dreams of our fathers
Though I must confess yes
My dreams are a wonder about this
This love I possess love
Must be the dreams of our fathers
I
wanna go I wanna run
We turn and so sure someone’s looking down
It’s haunting me haunting me
Leaves us here to get out
Though I don’t believe I don’t believe
This flavor in my mouth
Is from my tongue alone
So bitter I wanna spit it out
I
repeat these words
They come out
Under the blue light in this sky
My empty pages are filling up
With these wicked lies
But I hear deep in myself
An echo and echo
Of empty empty emptiness
Comes up and swells inside
I
don’t want to wake up
Lost in the dreams of our fathers
It’s such a waste child
To live and die for the dreams of our fathers
Though I must confess yes
My views are a wonder about this
This love I possess love
It must be the dreams of our fathers
Rain
on my head
Rain on my head
Rain on me
Can give this up
Rain on my life
Again and again
Why can’t I dream this away from me
Look
at you look at you find new
Bloated floating
Go belly down
Belly up in the water
But who is this here that drowned
We followed a drunken man
Got us spinning round
But it’s like he swallowed himself
And didn’t leave us a way out
I
don’t want to wake up
Lost in the dreams of our fathers
It’s such a shame child
To live and die for the dreams of our fathers
Though I must confess yes
My view is a wonder about this
This love I possess love
It must be the dreams of our fathers
This
love I posses love
It must be the dreams of our fathers
This love I posses love
It must be the dreams of our fathers
This love I posses love
It must be the love of our fathers
Drive
in drive out
I hear more than I like to...
so I boil my head in a sense of humor...
I laugh at what I cannot change...
I throw it all on the pyre again...
go then and do this
I'd do it for you...
when all that I want is so badly to be...
by myself again...
it's going to drive me right out of my brain
Drive in drive out I'm leaving
Drive in drive out
I'll come back again
Drive in drive out I'm leaving
Drive in drive out
I
don't care if we all turn to waste...
so when I beg...you avoid me...
because I smell of dirt... hungry, hungry boy...
you won't leave me all alone...the boy won't go
Sooner
or later we're done
Sooner or later I'm gone
because, because
Sooner or later we're gone
Sooner away
Ooh,
my head is pounding now...
god has all but left me behind...
not a sense of worry...
I'm going to drive in and drive out again
Drive in drive out I'm leavin
Drive in drive out I'll come
Drive in drive out I'm leavin
Drive in drive out
I'm
over this arrangement...
around here...emptiness
sounded so good...I want to
drive you right into my world
Drive
in drive out I'm leavin
Drive in drive out I'll come
Drive in drive out I'm leavin
Drive in drive out
Everybody
wake up (our finest hour has arrived)
Everybody wake up
if you're living with your eyes closed
See the man with the bomb in his hand
Everybody wake up
Oh,
Baby it's not easy sometimes
We make these walls ever higher and hide behind
them
Seems an odd way to try to make things right
Oh i feel like I'm crazy sometimes
And
our finest hour arrives
See the pig dressed in his finest vine
and believers stand behind him and smile
Everybody
wake up
if you're living with your eyes closed
See the man with the bomb in his hand
Everybody wake up
Remember
the words of the misguided fool
Do unto others as you'd have them do
Not an eye for an eye as the golden rule
It Just leaves a room full of blind men
As
our finest hour arrives
See the pig dressed in his finest vines
And believers stand behind him and smile
as the day lights up with fire
Everybody
wake up
Everybody wake up
Everybody wake up
Everybody
wake up
if you're living with your eyes closed
see the man with the bomb in his hands
Everybody wake up.......

Fool
to think
Look at me dreaming of you
All I could hope is to have you
To have you walking with me
Laughing so in love we two
Almost drunkenly
I did imbibe of this
Fantasy of you
Only
Was
I a fool to think
The way you looked at me
I swear you did
But you looked away to quick
Was I a fool
Was I a fool to think
That you would take me home
As if I was yours
Was I a fool to think at all
I’ve
grown tired of love
You are the trouble with me
I watch you walk right by
I smile you do not notice me
Treat me recklessly
All you do is toss me pennies Ohhhhhh
But the silence in me is screaming
Won’t you come and get me
Was
I a fool to think
They way you looked at me
I swear you did
But you looked away to quick
Was I a fool
Was I a fool to think
That you would take me home
As if I was yours
Was I a fool to think at all
Was
I a fool to think
They way you looked at me
I swear you did
But you looked away to quick
Was I a fool
Was I a fool to think
That you would take me home
As if I was yours
Was I a fool to think at all
You
make a mess of me
I’d dance a thousand steps for you
If you say yes to me
I’ll be whatever gets you through
You make a mess of me
Was I a fool
I’d dance a thousand steps for you
Was I a fool
Was I a fool to think
Am I a fool
Am I a fool for you
Grace
is gone
Neon shines through smoky eyes tonight
It’s 2 am - I’m drunk again it’s
heavy on my mind
I could never love again so much as I love you
Where you end where I begin is like a river going
through
Take my eyes take my heart I need them no more
If never again they fall upon the one I so adore
Excuse
me please one more drink
Could you make it strong cause I don’t need
to think
She broke my heart my Grace is gone
One more drink and I’ll move on
One
drink to remember then another to forget
How could I ever dream to find sweet love like
you again
One drink to remember and another to forget
Excuse
me please one more drink
Could you make it strong cause I don’t need
to think
She broke my heart my Grace is gone
One more drink and I’ll move on
One more drink and I’ll be gone
You
think of things impossible and the sun refuse
to shine
I woke with you beside me your cold hand lay in
mine
Excuse
me please one more drink
Could you make it strong cause I don’t need
to think
She broke my heart my Grace is gone
One more drink and I’ll go
Excuse
me please one more drink
Could you make it strong cause I don’t need
to think
She broke my heart my Grace is gone
One more drink and I’ll move on
One more drink and I’ll be gone
One more drink my Grace is gone
Granny
Hello, how are you doing today
I hope I find you feeling healthy
I'm So glad our paths crossed this time today
On our way into the night
We
find love hiding here in the shadows in the darkness
maybe,its up to you and I to bring to the night
Love as I approach the tears they fall like rain
you tell me
Baby your hearts into a thousand pieces
Now
Stop only old and wise, with clouded eyes,
You can't see what I can't hide
Blindly throw my faith to the face
Of the next good thing to come my way
So
here we are all of us stand around
We're leaning heavy on each other
Always wondering what is it lies behind
the worried eyes of one another
I
Believe its love that's hiding here
in the shadows, in the darkness
Maybe its up to you and me to share it with the
night
Love when I approach, my tears that fall like
rain you tell me
Maybe, my heart's into a thousand pieces
Now
Stop only old and wise, with clouded eyes
You can't see what I can hide
blindly throw my faith to the face
Of the next good thing that comes my way
I
say its love so i can hear although I know enough
to spare them
Maybe its up to you and I to share it with the
night
Love me approach the tears they fall like rain
you tell me
Baby your heart's into a thousand peices
Love
Baby
Love *dave jamming*
Baby
Love
Baby
*Repeat to end*

Grey
blue eyes
I feel for the light
Your glory was lost that night
And no mind can't get me right
And now I'm praying that you'll find me out
Stone, stone has pulled me down
But my faith has got me bound to your grey blue
eyes
Oh, oh
Oh, oh
Don't
forget my broken heart
You remember it from the start
You made it and it's all a part
Of your grey blue eyes
Oh, oh
Oh, oh
You're
gone and I know I'm dead
I've lost my way
Can't find me in your grey blue eyes
Grey blue eyes
Grey blue eyes
Grey blue eyes
Grey
street
Oh look at how she listens
She says nothing of what she thinks
She just goes stumbling through her memories
Staring out on to Grey Street
She
thinks, “Hey,
How did I come to this?
I dream myself a thousand times around the world,
But I can’t get out of this place”
There’s
an emptiness inside her
And she’d do anything to fill it in
But all the colors mix together - to grey
And it breaks her heart
How
she wishes it was different
She prays to God most every night
And though she swears it doesn’t listen
There’s still a hope in her it might
She
says, “I pray
But they fall on deaf ears,
Am I supposed to take it on myself?
To get out of this place”
There’s
loneliness inside her
And she’d do anything to fill it in
And though it’s red blood bleeding from
her now
It feels like cold blue ice in her heart
When all the colors mix together - to grey
And it breaks her heart
There’s
a stranger speaks outside her door
Says take what you can from your dreams
Make them as real as anything
It’d take the work out of the courage
But
she says, “Please
There’s a crazy man that’s creeping
outside my door,
I live on the corner of Grey Street and the end
of the world”
There’s
an emptiness inside her
And she’d do anything to fill it in
And though it’s red blood bleeding from
her now
It’s more like cold blue ice in her heart
She feels like kicking out all the windows
And setting fire to this life
She could change everything about her using colors
bold and bright
But all the colors mix together - to grey
And it breaks her heart
It breaks her heart
To grey

Guilty as charged

Change the ugly ways of the world

Open up the curtains I heard sirens there the
lights flash and crawl
I did it justice I just did it for us all
It’s
a nickel or a dime for what I’ve done
The truth is that I don’t really care
For such a lovely crime I’ll do the time
You better lock me up I’ll do it again
I
did it
Do you think I’ve gone too far
I did it
Guilty as charged

to
Change the ugly ways of the world
I didn’t know it felt so right inside
I didn’t know at all
Open up the curtains I heard sirens there the
lights flash and crawl
I did it justice I just did it for the buzz
All
you people are the skewers of our dreams
Like the cat that collared me
Oh what I gotta say to you got love don’t
Turn it down
Turn it loud
Let it build
We got a long way to go
But you gotta start somewhere
Go door to door spread the love you got
You got the love
You get what you want
Does it matter where you get it from
I for one
Don’t turn my cheek for anyone
Unturn your cheek to give your love
Love to grow
I
did it
Do you think I’ve gone too far
I did it
Guilty as charged
I did it
Was

Open up the curtain I heard sirens there the lights
flash and crawl
I did it justice I just did it for us all
I’ll
back you up
I remember thinking
I'll go on forever only knowing
I'll see you again
But I know
The touch of you is so hard to remember
But like that touch I know no other
And for sure we have danced
In the risk of each other
Would like to dance
Around the world with me
I'll
be falling all about my own thing
And I know your the heaviest weight
When your not here that's hung
Around my head
And
your lips burn wild
Thrown from the face of a child
And in your eyes
The seeing of the greatest few
Do what you will, always
Walk where you like, your steps
Do as you please, I'll back you up
I
remember thinking
Sometimes we walk
Sometimes we run away
But I know
No matter how fast we are running
Somehow we keep
Somehow we keep up with each other
I'll
be falling all about my own thing
And i know your the heaviest weight
When your not here that's hung
Around my head
And
your lips burn wild
Thrown from the face of a child
And in your eyes
The seeing of the greatest few
Do what you will, always
Walk where you like, your steps
Do as you please, I'll back you up
If
I had it all
Sometimes I can’t move my feet it seems
As if I’m stuck in the ground somehow like
a tree
As if I can’t even breathe
And my screams come whispering out
As if nobody can even see me
Like a ghost
I can’t see myself sometimes
Then
again if I were a king
If I had everything
If I had you
And I could give you your dreams
If I were giant size
On top of it all
Tell me what in the world would I sing for
If I had it
Sometimes
I feel lost
As I pull you out like strings of memories
Wish I could weave them into you
And I could figure the whole damn puzzle out
But
then again if I were a king
If I had everything
If I had you
And I could give you your dreams
If I were giant size
On top of it all
Tell me then what I would sing for
If I had it all
Ohhhhhhhh
I could take anything
If I had no greed to big
Just poison tainting the green
Remembering
time
Much younger than me now
When my breath was light
When the world raised me kind
Here the mother comforts child
Every moment was waking up
But now I have grown tired
If
I had it all
Oh I’d fuck it up sure
If
I were a king
If I had everything
If I had you
And I could give you your dreams
If I were giant size
On top of it all
Tell me what in the world would I sing for
If
I were a king
If I had everything
Piece by piece
If had you
If I could give you your dreams
If I were giant size
On top of it all
Then why in the world would I sing
If I had it all
Jimi
thing
Lately I've been feeling low
A remedy is what I'm seeking
Take a taste of what's below
Come away to something better
What I want is what I've not got
But what I need is all around me
Reaching searching never stop
And I'll say...
If
you could keep me floating just for a while
'Til I get to the end of this tunnel...mummy
If you could keep me floating just for a while
I'll get back to you
Take
a Jimi Thing
Just to keep me swingin'
I'd like to show you what's inside
I shouldn't care if you don't like it
Brother chaos rules all about
Sometimes I walk there
Sometimes, God knows, I take a bus there
I should't care I shouldn't care bereaved as
I'm feeling
Day
is gone I'm on my back
Staring up at the ceiling
I take a drink sit back relax
Smoke my mind makes me feel
Better for a short time
What I want is what I've not got
What I need is all around me
Reaching searching never stop
And I'll say
If
you could keep me floating just for a while
'Til I get to the end of this tunnel...mummy
If you could keep me floating just for a while
I'll get back to you

Kit
kat jam
Hey, golden girl, with your hair swinging down
All of this love you have going round
What will you do when the gold turns to grey?
Have you thought now
Well, what the hay, give us some
Cover
yourself with the safety of lies
You'll find it's easier 'til you face dying
Oh, sweetest smile in a confident come along
All of this longing you will done
Up
and out, goes to your heart
And you will make yourself higher up, little fool
And love and go down and pay to go on
We'll lie on water, and oh
On the way back I slip on the ceiling
Caught
you just then, hands were in the cookie jar
How can we share when you sneak up and go?
I've no intention of losing by beard
How they design and then we go again
Oh
God, them horses were racing
And, oh, bring me down
Could put Humpty Dumpty back together again
Now the wall won't hold anyone
I walk in the slide
Wait and reach your lady
This is the short one
Short way to lay in
Oh,
let her leave my hand I've given up
Whoa, how is too late now
Oh,
free, just...
Were you lying?
Let
you down
I let you down
Let me pick you up
I let you down
Let me climb up you to the top
So I can see the view from up there
Tangled in your hair
I let you down
I
have no lid upon my head
But if I did
You could look inside and see
what's on my mind
You could look inside and see
what's on my mind
I let you down, oh, forgive me
You give me love
Let me walk with you
Maybe I could say
Maybe talk with you, open up
And let me through
Don't walk away
Don't walk away
I
have no lid upon my head
But if I did
You could look inside and see
what's on my mind
You could look inside and see
what's on my mind
I let you down
How could I be such a fool like me
I let you down
Tail between my legs
I'm a puppy for your love
I'm a puppy for your love
I
have no lid upon my head
But if I did
You could look inside and see
what's on my mind,
oh it's you
I let you down
I'm a puppy for your love
I'm a puppy for your love
Forgive me
Forgive me
Forgive me
I let you down
Lie
in our graves
When I step into the light
My arms are open wide
When I step into the light
My eyes searching wildly
Would you not like to be
Sitting on top of the world with
your legs hanging free
Would you not like to be ok, ok, ok?
When
I'm walking by the water
Splish splash me and you takin a bath
When I'm walking by the water
Come up through my toes
To my ankles
To my head
To my soul
And I'm blown away
When
I'm walking by the water
Splish splash me and you takin a bath
When I'm walking by the water
Come up through my toes
To my ankles
To my head
To my soul
And I'm blown away
I can't believe that we would
lie in our graves
Wondering if we had
spent our living days well
I can't believe that we would
lie in our graves
Dreaming of things that we
might have been
I
can't believe that we would
lie in our graves
Wondering if we had
spent our living days well
I can't believe that we would
lie in our graves
Dreaming of things that we
might have been
Would
you not like to be
I can't believe that you
would not like to be
Would you not like to be
ok, ok, ok
Little
thing
But she talked so good
But when I turned around, she was gone
Oh, she was gone
I didn't even get her name, oh
I thought, goddamn
With your face in my mind
And your voice in my ears
Still echoes
Oh, I bought a lovely flower
Standing there, we met that day
And hope that you would return
But, no, no, no
I
can't remember where I was going
But I can't remember where I was leading to
Or what led me to you, but
Oh, and the weight is all through my head
The look of you, the sound
The way you cackled at me
From then and then, I didn't know where I was
going
But always I cry
And
so, hey, oh
The hands that pour my hands on you again
Hey, I will beg you, I'll beg, oh
See me, please find me again
Oh, I'm lost again
I sit here drinking coffee
Or water depending the time of day
But, oh, you're with me like a ghost of a mother
Oh, you're with me like the pain of a father
Oh, I wish I, I wish I could call you something
Other than the girl that I saw then
But,
hey, I think that I would recognize you in a second
But, hey, I only saw you for a minute, maybe less
I don't hold my hand where
But I waited, honest
I'm lost now, I'm lost now
I can't remember what I used to be
But, oh, hey, yeah, weighted by the memory of
The memory of a love that never got born, but
hey
Oh, hey
Do
I even cross your mind lately
With more than just a laughing
Did you think as you walked away, maybe
You were, hey
Oh, I hope you did
So, hey, yeah
You would, you would have been feeling
The same thing as I am now
Long
black veil
Ten years ago, on a cold, dark night
Someone was killed beneath the town hall light
There were few at the scene
But they all agreed
That the slayer who ran
Looked a lot like me
She
walks these hills in a Long Black Veil
She visits my grave when the night winds wail
Nobody knows, nobody sees, nobody knows but me
The
judge said, "Son, what is your alibi?
If you were somewhere else,
Then you won't have to die."
Well, I said not a word
Though it meant my life
For I'd been in the arms
Of my best friend's wife
Oh,
she walks these hills in a Long Black Veil
She visits my grave when the night winds wail
Nobody knows, nobody sees, nobody knows but me
Oh
now, the scaffold was high
Eternity is near
She stood in the crowd
And shed not a tear
Oh,
sometimes at night
When the cold winds blow
In a Long Black Veil
She stands over my bones
She
walks these hills in a Long Black Veil
She visits my grave when the night winds wail
Nobody knows, nobody sees, nobody knows but me
She
walks these hills in a Long Black Veil
She visits my grave when the night winds wail
Nobody knows, nobody sees, nobody knows but me
Nobody knows, nobody sees, nobody knows but me
Nobody
knows but me...
Nobody
knows...
Nobody knows...
Nobody knows... but me.

My heart was made of broken bones
My soul a bag of stick and stone
But you along this dusty road
Have come my love to take me home
So
I give to you my everything
You've given me these loving wings
Angels have all gathered 'round
To hear me sing my love out loud
Your

Out of a darkness cold and gray
Now I work beneath the midday sun
My cool blue water you have come
So
I give to you my everything
You've given me these loving wings
Angels have all gathered 'round
To hear me sing my love out loud

Minarets
Santa Maria choose your children
Santa Maria virgin child
all our wars over you we are fighting
and all our time faith justifying
Brother caged Babylon will fall
Sister chained and bound, beaten and bleeding
The tv's on, to me this explains it
Wearing a tie like daddy speaks it
Screaming from the minarets
Later on we'll all be dancing
Screaming from the minarets
Yes indeed i'm making faces
Rain on the ground in a space
God has grown
Alone till a man looking glass in his hand
He is holding up to you
What you see
What you see
What you see
What you see is human
Screaming from the minarets

A place so bitter and still so sweet
So beautiful and yet so full of sad sad

Why forests march to deserts be
While snow capped mountains melt away

Yet pulls the trigger on his brother’s heart
He digs a hole right to the middle of a storm
of hatred

A precious balance in between
Such cruelty and such kindness please please
Mother

How the world has come to be so
Twisted between time and dreams
Oh Mother Father please explain to me
What’s

All this talk about it
Spinning down down down down down

All these words without
And nothing done

Why one mans belly overflows
Another sleeps in hungers bed
We’d trade our world for a piece of bread
Mother

How this rare worlds come to be
A place so full of color yet overflowing always
In black and white black and white
Drowning in the waters of our
Mother

As if you're sitting in that dusty chair
Makes the hours easier to bare
I know despite the years alone
I'll always listen to you sing your sweet song
And if it's all the same to you
I
love you oh so well
Like a kid loves candy and fresh snow
I love you oh so well
Enough to fill up heaven overflow and fill hell
Love you oh so well
And
it's cold and darkness falls
It's as if you're in the next room so alive
I could swear I hear you singing to me

Like a kid loves candy and fresh snow
I love you oh so well
Enough to fill up heaven overflow and fill hell
Love you oh so well
The

I love you oh so well
Enough to fill up heaven overflow and fill hell
Love you oh so well
Old
dirt hill (Bring the beat back)
I would dig a hole all the way to China
unless of course I was there
Then I'd dig my way home
If by diggin I could steal... the wind from the
sails
Of the greedy men who rule the world
Still
you're my best friend
And after a good good drunk...you and me
Wake up and make love after a deep sleep
where I was dreaming
I was dreaming of a
Dream Girl
I
was feeling like a creep
as I watched you asleep
face down in the grass in the park
in the middle of a hot afternoon
Your top was untied and I thought how nice
It'll be to follow the sweat down your spine
You're
like my best friend
After a good good drunk...you and me
Wake up and make love after a deep sleep
where I was dreaming
I was dreaming of a
Dream Girl
(bridge)
caught
by a wave
my back to the ocean
it knocks me off my feet and
just as i find my footing
here you come again
Dream Girl
Dream Girl
One
sweet world
Nine planets round the sun
Only one does the sun embrace
Upon this watered one
So much we take for granted
So let us sleep outside tonight
Lay down in our mother's arms
For here we can rest safely
If
green should slip to grey
But our hearts still bloody be
And if mountains crumble away
And the river dry Would it stop the stepping feet
Take
all that we can get
When it's done
Nobody left to bury here
Nobody left to dig the holes
And here we can rest safely
One
sweet world
Around a star is spinning
One sweet world
And in her breath I'm swimming
And here we will rest in peace
Out
of my hands
Out on my window ledge
I don't feel safe
but i stay looking down on you
It's
out of my hands for now
It's out of my hands for now
I
can't just walk away
Be nice to walk away
But I don't feel safe
Get away
All the way up here
It's
out of my hands for now
It's out of my hands for now
Oh
it is
down from here
down from here
Start to feel insane, betrayed
Out on my window ledge
Now
our finest hour arrives
See the pig dressed in his finest vine
And all the believers stand behind him and smile
as the day lights up with fire
Let
me in
Let me in
I stop to feel like crazy, betrayed
Out on my window ledge
Now
our finest hour arrives
See the pig dressed in his finest vine
And all the believers stand behind him and smile
Watch as the day lights up with fire
looking
down from here
it's out of my hands for now
Out on my window ledge
it's out of my hands for now
so
let me in
let me in
Pantala
naga pampa
Come and relax now
Put your troubles down
No need to bear the weight of your worries
Just let them all fall away.
Pay
for what you get
Work ourselves, fingers to the bone
Suck the marrow, drain my soul
Fingers to the bone
Pay your dues, and your debts
Pay your respects, everybody tells you
You pay for what you get
You pay for what you get
Everybody
asks me how she's doin'
Has she really lost her mind?
I said, I couldn't tell you
I've lost mine
Words,
words, words, have you heard
A bird in hand is much better than,
Any number free to wander
Fly away... Stay
You pay for what you get
You pay for what you get
Everybody
asks me how she's doing
Is she really all she says...
Everybody asks me how she's doing
Since she went away
I said I couldn't tell you
I'm OK I'm OK (I'm OK)
Surprise,
surprise
You pay for what you get
You pay for what you get
Everybody
asks me how she's doing
Has she really lost her...
Everybody asks me how she's doing
Since she went away
I said I couldn't tell you
I'm OK I'm OK I'm OK (How are you?)
Pay
for what you get
Pay for what you get...oh...
Pay for what you get
Pay for what you get oh...
Oh...
Pig
Isn't it strange
How we move our lives for another day
Like skipping a beat
What if a great wave should
wash us all away
Just thinking out loud
Don't mean to dwell on this dying thing
But looking at blood
It's alive right now
Deep and sweet within
Pouring through our veins
Intoxicate moving wine to tears
Drinking it deep
Then an evening spent dancing
It's you and me
This love will open our world
From the dark side we can see a glow of something
bright
There's much more than we see here
Don't burn the day away
Is
this not enough
This blessed sip of life
Is it not enough
Staring down at the ground
Oh then complain and pray
more from above
Greedy little pig
Stop just watch your world trickle away
Oh it's your problem now
It'll all be dead and gone in
a few short years
Just love will open our eyes
Just love will put the hope in our minds
Much more than we could ever know
Don't burn the day away
Come
sister
my brother
Shake up your bones shake up your feet
I'm saying open up
And let the rain come pouring in
Wash out this tired notion
That the best is yet to come
But while you're dancing on the ground
Don't think of when you're gone
Love! love!? what more is there?
We need the light of love in here
Don't beat your head
Dry your eyes
Let the love in there
There are bad times
But that's ok
Just look for love in it
Don't burn the day away
Look
Here are we
On this starry night staring into space
And I must say
I feel as small as dust
Lying down here
What point could there be troubling
Head down wondering what will
become of me
Why concern we cannot see
But no reason to abandon it
Time is short but that's all right
Maybe I'll go in the middle of the night
Take your hands from your eyes, my love
Everything must end some time
Don't burn the day away
Come
sister
My brother
Shake up your bones shake up your feet
I'm saying open up
And let the rain come flooding in
Wash out this tired notion
That the best is yet to come
But while you're dancing on the ground
Don't think of when you're gone
Love! love!? what more is there?
We need the light of love in here
Don't beat your head
Dry your eyes
Let the love in there
There are bad times
But that's ok
Just look for love in it
Proudest
monkey
Swing in this tree
Oh I am bounce around so well
Branch to branch,
limb to limb you see
All in a day's dream
I'm stuck
Like the other monkeys here
I am a humble monkey
Sitting up in here again
But then came the day
I climbed out of these safe limbs
Ventured away
Walking tall, head high up and singing
I went to the city
Car horns, corners and the gritty
Now I am the proudest monkey
you've ever seen
Monkey see, monkey do
Then comes the day
Staring at myself I turn to question me
I wonder do I want the simple,
simple life that I once lived in well
Oh things were quiet then
In a way they were the better days
But now I am the proudest monkey
you've ever seen
Monkey see, monkey do
Monkey see, monkey do
Rapunzel
Open wide Oh so good I'll eat you
Take me for a ride
In your sweet delicious
Perfect little mouth
Thereupon I linger
You will have no doubt
I'll do my best for you, I do
Love
Let's stop to get it going
Lost myself just thinking
About the two of us
From each other drinking
Begin with the lips
Fingertips and kissing
Turn me inside out
I do my best for you
Up and down we go
From the top you push me
This is such a thrill
Lost in love and dancing
Shake your tambourine
You blow my head open
Of this there's no doubt
I do my best for you I do
For you I would crawl
Through the darkest dungeon
Climb the castle wall
If you are my Rapunzel
You let your hair down
Right in through your window
Good they locked the door
I do my best for you
I think the world of you
All of my heart I do
Blood through my veins for you
You alone have all of me
I give my world to you
To you I will be true
Too good to be real
Smell of something cooking
My soul you're to steal
Food of love we're filling
What you've given me
For it there is no measure
Of one thing I am sure
I'll give my best for you
I think the world of you
All of my heart I do
Blood through my veins for you
You alone have all of me
From you my strength is full
To carry your burdens too
I give my world to you
Hip lock up so tight
You drive me crazy
Crazy is all right
With you looking at me
You make me feel high
Every single thing you do to me
is like I'm drunk
I do my best for you, I do
Recently
Recently I've been
All of content and dreaming I have been
'Cause I been lately seeing
Quite a bit of this woman live on my street
People stare and we just ignore everything
People stare and we just ignore them
And they go away, go away
She
comes to me
I watch her drink
I watch her comb her hair
Both say that we never before have
Felt as recently
People
stare and we just ignore
What's the use in hiding out
She says all the time
Let their eyes do the worrying about
She
and me go to places quiet
Where we are quite alone
Kiss and we hold together
We will be until we done
People
stare and we just ignore
What's the use in hiding out
She says all the time
Let their eyes do the worring about
Both
say the we never before
Never before have felt as recently
People stare and we just ignore everything
People stare and we just ignore them
And they go away, go away
Rhyme
and reason
Oh well oh well so here we stand
But we stand for nothing
My heart calls to me in my sleep
How can I turn to it
'Cause I'm all locked up in this
Dark place - and I do not know
I'm good as dead
My head aches - warped and tied up
I need to kill this pain
My
head won't leave my head alone
And I don't believe it will
'Til I'm dead and gone
My head won't leave my head alone
And I don't believe it will
'Til I'm six feet under ground
How
long I'm tied up
My mind in knots - my stomach reels
In concern for what I might do or
What I've done
It's got me living in fear
Well I know these voices must
Be my soul
I've had enough
I've had enough
Of being alone
I've got no place to go
Chorus
. . . In my grave
Lying wired shut and quiet in my grave
Leave me here
Leave it to me to waste here
So
young here I am again
Talking to myself
A t.v. blares
Oh man oh how I wish I didn't smoke
Or drink to reason with my head
But sometimes this thick confusion
Grows until I cannot bare it all
Needle to the vein
Needle to the vein
Take this needle from my vein my friend
Chorus
. . . In my grave
Lying lying cold in my grave
Reason - my reason
Take my head off this terror
I'm fearing I'll come back
I'll see
My mind's all wiped clean
The needle
Make my great escape
I'll see the cold in time
My head leaves me behind
Let me fade away
I
seem caught in time
My head leaves me behind
Body falls cold
And I see heaven
Satellite
Satellite in my eyes
Like a diamond in the sky
How I wonder.
Satellite strung from the moon
And the world your balloon
Peeping tom for the mother station
Winter's cold spring erases
And the calm away by the storm is chasing
Everything good needs replacing
Look up, look down all around, hey satellite
Satellite,
headlines read
Someone's secrets you've seen
Eyes and ears have been
Satellite dish in my yard
Tell me more, tell me more
Who's the king of your satellite castle?
Winter's
cold spring erases
And the calm away by the storm is chasing
Everything good needs replacing
Look up, look down all around, hey satellite
Rest high above the clouds no resrictions
Television we bounce 'round the world
And while I spend these hours
Five senses reeling,
I laugh about the weatherman's satellite eyes.
Satellite
in my eyes
Like a diamond in the sky
How i wonder.
Satellite strung from the moon
And the world your balloon
Peeping tom for the mother station
Winter's
cold spring erases
And the calm away by the storm is chasing
Everything good needs replacing
Look up, look down all around, hey satellite
Rest
high above the clouds no restrictions
Television you bounce from the world
And while I spend these hours
Five senses reeling
I laugh about this world in my satellite eyes.
Save
me
Driving through the desert I met a man
Who told me of his crazy plan
He'd been walking there for 20 days
He was going to walk on
For 20 more
I said "How about a drink or a bite to eat?"
He said "No, my faith is all I need"
So then, save me
Save me mister walking man
If you can
You
don't need to prove a thing to me
Just give me faith, make me believe
Come on, save me
Save me, mister walking man
If you can
Come on, save me
Save me, mister stranger
If you please save me
Save me
Stranger, if you please
Or am I too far gone
I see to get back home
To get back home
How
about you take a ride with me
We could kill some time, shoot the breeze
He said, "every whispering wind and second
counts"
Oh, maybe if you walk, but you should drive around
Save
me
Save me
Mister walking man, if you can
Come on, save me, save me
Mister stranger, if you please
Save me, save me
Stranger, if you please
Or am I too far gone
To get back home
To get back home
I don't need you to stall for some time, no
I don't need you to turn water into wine, no
I don't need you to, to fly
I'm just asking you to save me
(You
might try savin' yourself)
I'm gonna save me
(You might try savin' yourself)
I swear those lips shine
(You might try savin' yourself)
As it, the moon, the moon it shines
(You might try savin' yourself)
Why don't you, save me
(You might try savin' yourself)
Come on and save me
(You might try savin' yourself)
Say
goodbye
So here we are tonight,
you and me together
The storm outside, the fire is bright
And in your eyes I see
what's on my mind
You've got me wild
turned around inside
And then desire, see, is creeping
up heavy inside here
And know you feel the same way
I do now
Now let's make this an evening
Lovers for a night, lovers for tonight
Stay here with me, love, tonight
just for an evening
When we make
our passion pictures
You and me twist up
secret creatures
And we'll stay here
Tomorrow go back to being friends
Go back to being friends
But tonight let's be lovers,
We kiss and sweat
We'll turn this better thing
to the best
Of all we can offer, Just a rogue kiss
Tangled tongues and lips,
See me this way
I'm turning and turning for you
Girl, just tonight
Float
away here with me
An evening just wait and see
But tomorrow go back to your man
I'm back to my world
And we're back to being friends
Wait and see me,
Tonight let's do this thing
All we are is wasting hours
until the sun comes up it's all ours
On our way here
Tomorrow go back to being friends
Go
back to being friends
Tonight let's be lovers, say you will
And hear me call, soft-spoken whispering love
A thing or two I have to say here
Tonight let's go all the way then
Love I'll see you,
Just for this evening
Let's strip down, trip out at this
One evening starts with a kiss
Run away
And
tomorrow
back to being friends
Lovers...love...lovers
Just for tonight, one night...love you
And tomorrow say goodbye
Seek
up
Sometimes I feel like I'm falling
Fall back again, fall back again,
Fall back again, fall back again
Oh, life it seems a struggle between
What we think what we see
I'm not going to change my ways
Just to please you or appease you
Inside a crowd, five billion proud
Willing to punch it out
Right, wrong, weak, strong
Ashes to ashes all fall down
Look around about this round
About this merry-go-round around
If at all God's gaze upon us fall
His mischievous grin, look at him
Forget
about the reasons and
The treasons we are seeking
Forget about the notion that
Our emotions can be swept away
Forget about being guilty,
We are innocent instead
For soon we will all find our lives swept away
Sit
awhile with TV's hungry child
Big belly swelled
Oh, for a price of a coke or a smoke
Keep alive those hungy eyes
Take a look at me, what you see in me,
Mirror look at me
Face it all, face it all again
Forget
about the reasons and
The treasons we are seeking
Forget about the notion that your emotions can
be
Wept away, kept at bay
Forget about being guilty, i am innocent instead
For soon we will all find our lives swept away
You
seek up an emotion
And our cup is overflowing
You seek up an emotion,
Sometimes your well is dry
You seek up a big monster
For him to fight your wars for you
But when he finds his way to you, the devil's
not
Going--ha, ha
Say,
say
Look
at me in my fancy car
And my bank account
Oh, how I wish I could take it all down
Into my grave, I'd save
Take a look again, take a look again,
Take a look again
Everyday things change,...stay the same
Forget
about the reasons and
The treasons we are seeking
Forget about the notion that
Your emotions can be swept away
Intentions are not wicked,
Don't be tricked into thinking so
Soon we will all find our lives swept away
You
seek up an emotion
And our cup is overflowing
You seek up an emotion,
Sometimes your well is dry
You seek up a big monster
For him to fight your wars for you
But when he finds his way to you,
The devil's not going--ha, ha
Fall back again, fall back again, fall back again...
Sleep
to dream her
I know I’ll miss her later
Wish I could bend my love to hate her
Wish I could be her creator
To twist her arms now
She
stares up at the stars when
The stars fell from her hair then
I bent down to collect them
And then she was gone
Oh
I sleep just to dream her
I beg the night just to see her
That my only love should be her
Just to lie in her arms
Oh
I came there to find out
Find out she made up her mind ohhhh
My arms are all tied up
To me she was blind
Mmmm
this space between us
Where wingless dreams fall earless
Will you not bear me witness
With your back to me now
It seems so unnerving
Yet still somehow deserving
That she could hold my heart so tightly
And still not see me here
Oh
I sleep just to dream her
Beg the night just to see her
That my only love should be her
Just to lie in her arms
I
know I’ll miss her later
I wish I could bend my love to hate her
Wish I could be her creator
To be the light in her eyes
Smooth
rider
Last night
No way
i was gonna be left hungry
Then your daddy caught me sneakin out your bed
It's just a game i play
It's just a role i play
Dont think, sweet baby
I'm messin with your head
I'm
a smooth rider baby
You know i just keep movin on
I don't know why I like to carry on the way I
do
it's just that I'm in love with you
If

And you hear the sherriff's comin
Your daddy's crazy with that gun in his hand
If you know they're comin for me
And you know they're running for me
You know my love won't let them keep me away
I'm
a smooth rider baby
You know i just keep movin on
I don't know why I like to carry on the way I
do
it's just that I'm in love with you

If

And you hear the sherriff's comin
Your daddy's crazy with that gun in his hand
If you know they're comin for me
And you know they're running for me
You know my love won't let them keep me away
I'm a smooth rider baby.....
So
damn lucky
Everything's different
My head in the clouds
I
hit this corner
With my foot on the gass
I started sliding, I lose it
Everything's different just like that
Oh
my God, wait and see
What will soon become of me?
Frozen
heart
Screaming wheels
Does that screaming come from me?
So
damn lucky, when went on ahead
You say, you say
I see you later
I heard what you said a few minutes later
I'm
sliding
Everything's different, again
Oh
my God, wait and see
What will soon become of me?
This
frozen heart
Screaming wheels
But does that screaming come from me?
I'm
dizzy from all this spinning
Now
I'm thinking that you did all you could
When you said my love
Take it slowly
OK, is what I said
Oh my God, wait and see
What will soon become of me?
Frozen
heart
Screaming wheels
But does that screaming come from me?
Take
me back, just before I was spinning
Take me back, just before I got dizzy
Take me back, amazing what a minute can do
Just like you
So, so, so, so, up, around, around, around
Amazing what a minute can do
Around, around, around
OK.
So
much to say
Say my hell is the closet
I'm stuck inside
Can't see the light
And my heaven is a nice house
in the sky
Got central heating
and I'm alright
Yeah, yeah, yeah...
can't see the light
Keep it locked up inside
don't talk about it
Talk about the weather
Can't see the light
Open up my head and let me out, little baby
Here we have been standing
for a long, long time
Treading trodden trails for a long, long time
I say my hell is the closet I'm stuck inside
Can't see the light
And my heaven is a nice house in the sky
Got central heating and I'm alright
Here we have been standing for a long, long time
Treading trodden trails for a long, long time
I find sometimes it's easy
to be myself
Sometimes I find it's better to be somebody else
I
see you young and soft oh little baby
Little feet, little hands, little baby
One year of cryin' and the words creep up inside
Creep into your mind
So much to say
Here we have been standing for a long, long time
Treading trodden trails for a long, long time
I find sometimes it's easy
to be myself
Sometimes I find it's better
to be somebody else
So
much to say
Open up my head and let me out
Little baby
So
right
Roll uptown to midnight
Then roll on downtown till its light
Because tomorrow we may die
Oh but tonight we’re dancing in the fate
light
Don’t you
Rob yourself of what you’re feeling
Don’t rob yourself of all that you could
be
Roll hard ‘til midnight
Roll ‘til its light
Come on now
Stay
up and make some memories here
With us now
To roll red carpet out with friends
To love and roll on
Our love is so right
I won’t waste a minute here tonight
Our love is so right
And tonight my dance is all about you
To
midnight love you
Roll on and run the red lights
Game now is keep it tight
How I love her pretty rock and roll kisses
Come on and stay with me
Roll on and run the red lights
Come this love is so right
Stay
up and make some memories here
With us now
To roll the red carpet out with friends
To love and roll on
Our love is so right
I can taste we’re in it here tonight
Our love is so right
And tonight my dance is all about you
I’m
going crazy and it’s all cause of you
It’s all cause of you
I’m going under over you
Over you
This
time now is so alive
Everybody’s trance dancing tonight
So beautiful and so strange
It was empty till you came
Some
devil
One last kiss
One only
Then I'll let you go
Hard for you
I've fallen
But you can't break my fall
I'm broken
Don't break me
When I hit the ground
Some
devil
Some angel
Has got me to the bones
You said always and forever
Now I believe you baby
You said always and forever
Is such a long and lonely time
Too
drunk and
Still drinking
It's just the way I feel
It's alright
Is what you told me
'Cause what we had was so beautiful
Feel heavy
Like floating
At the bottom of the sea
You
said always and forever
Now I believe you baby
You said always and forever
Is such a long and lonely time
Some
devil is
Stuck inside of me
I cannot set it free
I wish, I wish I was dead and
You breathing
Just so that you could know
Some angel is
Stuck inside of me
But I cannot set you free
You
said always and forever
Now I believe you baby
You said always and forever
Such a long and lonely time
Stuck
inside of me
Song
that jane likes
And in plays to write the wire in
I'll come back again
Torching time talking rhymes in
I'll come back again
Would you like to play
With the thought of a friend
In a distant passing stage
While you lie around
With hands up and down
So resigned you will fall down
While
you around here play
Wild on the warm and far away
While you around here play
The days keep scrbbling themselves
In tidy lines
Would
like to play
With a fool holding hands
With a one-eyed jack of spades
While on the deck they sing
All of the captain's cards are kings
Still he and the queen are lost at sea
I hope it isn't you and me
And
I'll be back 'round again
Yes I'll walk in time with you old friend
And we'll find that place
That we had danced so long ago
And
in plays to write the wire in
I'll come back again
Torching time talking rhymes in
I'll come back again
With this resigned
The letter I sign
Spoon
Spoon in spoon
Stirring my coffee
I thought of you
And turned to the gate
On my way came up with the answers
I scratched my head
And the answers were gone
From hand to hand
Wrist to the elbow
Red blood sand
could Dad be God
Crosses cross hung out like a wet rag
Forgive you? Why?
You hung me out to dry
Maybe I'm crazy
But laughing out loud
Makes the pain pass by
And maybe you're a little crazy
But laughing out loud makes
it all subside
Holding, I'm holding
I'm still falling
Spoon in spoon
Stirring my coffee
I thought of this
And turned to the gate
But on my way
Crack
Lightning and thunder
I hid my head
And the storm slipped away
Well maybe I'm crazy
And laughing out loud
Makes it all pass by
And maybe you're a little crazy
And laughing out loud
Makes it all alright
Laughing out loud
From time to time
Minutes and hours
Some move ahead while
Some lag behind
It's like the balloon that
Rise and then vanish
This drop of hope
That falls from his eyes
Spoon in spoon
Stirring my coffee
I think of this
And turn to go away
But as I walk
There're voices behind me saying
Sinners sin
Come now and play
Stand
up (for it)
Stand Up
Stand Up
Stand Up
Stand Up
I woke up to the angels
singin in my head
They looked so good naked next to me
An angel in my bed
Stand Up
Stand Up
Stand Up
Stand Up
I feel like a drug
is cookin in my veins
I'm so out of my mind
Gonna shoot you up again
Stand Up
Stand Up
Stand Up
Stand Up
smell like smoke and fire
is burning in us all
You drop me in the water
Lift me out and save my soul
Stand Up
Stand Up
Stand Up
Stand Up...
Stay
We were walking
Just the other day
It was so hot outside
You could fry an egg
Remember you were talking
I watched as sweat ran down your face
Reached up and caught it at your chin
Licked my fingertip
Wasting time
Let the hours roll by
Doing nothing for the fun
Little taste of the good life
Whether right or wrong
Makes us want to stay, stay, stay
for awhile
Later on the sun began to fade
Then the clouds rolled over our heads
And it began to rain
Oh we were dancing mouths open
Splashing tongue taste
For a moment this good time would never end
You and me
You and me
Just wasting time
I was kissing you
You were kissing me love
From good day into a moonlight
Now a night so fine
Makes us wanna stay, stay, stay, stay for awhile
Wasting time
I shall miss these things
When it all rolls by
What a day
Wanna stay, stay, stay, stay for awhile
Hey love
Oh just groping you
Rolling in the mud
Stay a while
Come on love
Wanna stay, stay, stay, stay for awhile
Stay
or leave
Maybe different but remember
Winters warm there you and I
Kissing whiskey by the fire
With the snow outside
And the summer comes
The river swims at midnight shiver cold
Touch the bottom you and I
With muddy toes
Stay
or leave
I want you not to go but you should
It was good as good goes
Stay or leave I want you not to go but you did
Wake
up naked drinking coffee
Making plans to change the world
While the world is changing us
It was good good love
You used to laugh under the covers
Maybe not so often now
The way I used to laugh with you
Was loud and hard
Stay
or leave
I want you not to go but you should
It was good as good goes
Stay or leave I want you not to go but you did
So
what to do
With the rest of the day's afternoon hey
Isn't it strange how we change
Everything we did
Did I do all that I should
That
I coulda done
Remember
we used to dance
And everyone wanted to be
You and me
I want to be too
What day is this
Besides the day you left me
What day is this
Besides the day you went
So what to do
With the rest of the day's afternoon hey
Well isn't it strange how we change
Everything we did
Did I do all that I could
Remember
we used to dance
And everyone wanted to be
You and me, I want to be too
What day is this
Besides the day you went babe
What day is this?
Steady
as we go
I'll walk halfway around the world
just to sit down by your side
I would do most anything, girl
to be the apple of your eye
Troubles they may come and go
but good times they're the gold
So if the road gets rocky, girl
Just steady as we go
Any
place you wanna go
you know I'll be next to you
If it's treasure, baby, you're looking for
I'll search the whole world through
Troubles they may come and go
but good times they're the gold
So if the road gets rocky, girl
Just steady as we go
When
the storm comes you shelter me
When I don't say a word and you know exactly what
I mean
In the darkest times you shine on me
You set me free
Keep me steady as we go
So
if your heart wrings dry, my love
I will fill your cup
and if your load gets heavy, girl
I will lift you up
Troubles they may come and go
but good times be the gold
So if the road gets rocky, girl
Just steady as we go
shine
on me, baby
Stolen
away on 55th and 3rd
Hello again
Seems like forever between now and then
You look the same
I mean you look different but you haven't changed
Funny to think how the time gets away
Funny how you take me right back again
Stole
me away
First time i saw you you did me that way
What should i say
I saw you laughing and i was afraid
I might get in the way
I
did not think i would see you again
So how have you been
Do you remember ...
and
How's everything
Funny i think how time gets away
Funny how you take me right back again
Stole
me away
First time i saw you you did me that way
What should i say
Saw you there dancing but i was afraid
I might get in the way
I
did not think i would see you again
Funny to think how the time gets away
Funny how you take me right back again
Funny the feeling when forever ends
You stole me away
First time I saw you you did me that way
What should i say
Saw you there dancing but i was afraid
I might get in the way
Never
thought i would see you again
So how have you been
Watching the years as they trickle away
It's everything
how the time gets away
Funny how you take me right back again
Steal
me away
It's
like the first time i saw you you do me that way
What should i say
I see you here standing and I am afraid
I might get in your away
I
never thought i would see again
How have you been
Do you remember i mean everything
You steal me away
Like the first time i saw you
you do me that way
What can i say
I see you standing here and I am afraid
I might get in your away
Sugar

The
last stop
Fire The sun is well asleep
Moon is high above
Fire grows from the east
How is this
Hate so deep
Lead us all so blindly killing killing
Fools we are
If hate's the gate to peace
This is the last stop
For raining tears
War
The only way to Peace
I don't fall for that
Raining tears
You're righteous, so righteous
You're always so right
Go ahead and dream
Go ahead believe that you are the chosen one
Raining tears
Oh no
Gracious even God
Bloodied the cross
Your sins are washed enough
Mother's cry
"Is hate so deep
Must a baby's bones
This hungry fire feed?"
As smoke clouds roll in
The symphony of death
This is the last stop
Scream
Right is wrong now
Shut up you big lie
This black and white lie
You comb your hair to hide
Your lying eyes
You're righteous, so righteous
You're always so right
But why your lie
Go ahead and dream
Go ahead believe that you are the chosen one
This is the last stop
Here there's more than is showing up
Hope that we can break it down
It's not so black and white
You're righteous
You're righteous
You're righteous
You're always so right
There you are nailing a good tree
Then say forgive me, forgive me
Why
Raining tears
This is the last stop
Here there is more than is showing up
Hope that we can break it down
It's not so black and white
The
maker
Oh, oh deep water, black and cold like the night
I stand with arms wide open
I've run a twisted line
I'm a stranger in the eyes of the Maker
I could not see for the fog in my eyes
I could not feel for the fear in my life
From
across the great divide, In the distance I saw
a light
Of John Baptist walking to me with the Maker
My body my body is bent and broken by long and
dangerous sleep
I can't work the fields of Abraham and turn my
head away
I'm not a stranger in the hands of the Maker
Brother
John, have you seen the homeless daughters
Standing here with broken wings
I have seen the flaming swords
There over east of eden
Burning in the eyes of the Maker
Burning in the eyes of the Maker
Burning in the eyes of the Maker
Oh,
river rise from your sleep
Oh, river rise from your sleep
Oh, river rise from your sleep
The
raven
What you got what you got in your hand? - a father
said to son
I got the whole world here Daddy between my fingers
and my thumb
Well you take care of it please - it’s the
only one
Well it would take me a lifetime old man to undo
what you’ve done
To undo what you’ve done
Oh
come on now boy think what would Jesus do?
He shake his head like an angry mother - spoke
the boy and say I did what I could do
But you take care of it please – it’s
the only one you got
And it’d take ten lifetimes boy to undo
what I’ve done
Boy
shrugged walked away
The man stood and watched as he was leaving
Boy just walked away
The man stood alone thinking
One
hand is bleeding and the other hand holds a gun
While everything is open everything is shut down,
down, down
Begin to ending is really just a go round and
round and round
As I stand here - the ground beneath is nothing
more than one point of view
What
you got what you got in your hand? Your secret’s
safe with me
Well I found the truth friend let me whisper in
your ear
Take good care of it please - it’s the only
one there is
Can I twist it please can I give it just a little
twist
Boy
shrugged walked away
The man stood and watched as he was leaving
Boy just walked away
The man stood there twisting
One
hand is bleeding and the other hand holds a gun
Everything is open now everything is shut down,
down, down
No one is holding even if you even if your sure
You never know it all the ground beneath is nothing
more than my point of view
Boy
shrugged walked away
The man stood and watched as he was leaving
Boy just walked away
The man stood there twisting
One
hand is open and the other hand holds the gun
Everything is open now is everything coming down,
down, down
No one is hoping even if you even if you know
You never know it all - nothing more than, nothing
more than my point of view
Boy
shrugged walked away
The man stood and watched as he was leaving
The man stood there twisting
The
space between
You cannot quit me so quickly
Is no hope in you for me
No corner you could squeeze me
But I’ve got all the time for you love
The
space between
The tears we cry is the laughter that keeps us
coming back for more
The space between
The wicked lies we tell to keep us safe from the
pain
Will
I hold you again
These
fickle fuddled words confuse me
Like will it rain today
We waste the hours with talking talking
These twisted games we’re playing
We’re
strange allies
With warring hearts
What a wild eyed beast you be
The
space between
The wicked lies we tell that hope to keep us safe
from the pain
Look
at us spinning out in the madness of a rollercoaster
You know you went off like the devil in the church
In the middle of a crowded room
All we can do my love
Is hope we don’t take this ship down
The
space between
Where you smile and hide
That’s where you’ll find me if I get
to go
The
space between
The bullets in our fire fight
Is where I’ll be hiding waiting for you
The rain that falls
Splashed in your heart
Ran like sadness down the window into your room
The
space between
Our wicked lies is
The hope to keep safe from pain
Take
my hand
Cause we’re walking out of here
Right out of here
Is all we need dear
The
space between
What’s wrong and right
Is where you’ll find me hiding
Waiting for you
The
space between
Your heart and mind
Is the space we’ll fill with time
The
space between
The tears we cry is the laughter keeps us coming
back for more
The space between
Our wicked lies where we hope to keep safe from
pain
The
space between
The space between
The
stone
I've this creeping
Suspicion that things are not
as they seem
Reassure me
Why do I feel as if I'm in too deep
I've been praying
For some way to show them
I'm not what they see
Yes I have done wrong
But what I did I thought
needed be done
I swear
Unholy day
If I leave now I might get away
This weighs on me
As heavy as stone and as blue as I go
I was just wondering if
you'd come along
To hold up my head when my head
won't hold on
I'll do the same if the same's
what you want
If not I'll go
I will go alone
I'm a long way
From that fool's mistake and
now forever pay
No, run
I will run and I'll be ok
I was just wondering if
you'd come along
To hold up my head when my head
won't hold on
I'll do the same if the same's
what you want
If not I'll go
I will go alone
I need so
To stay in your arms, see you smile, hold you
close
And it weighs on me
As heavy as stone and
a bone chilling cold
I was just wondering if
you'd come along
Tell me you will
Too
high
Your bones are brittle
Inside you
Wrapped so soft your blood
Is running, I'll be there
If you're moving slowly
We still get there I'll be there
Such a strong desire
Hunger
All
you need to hope you keep your head, yeah
The slow hand quickens
What
you've done with all those
Around you
Hopeful always that someone
Will come and save you but I'll be there
To watch you sulk, returning
Seething I'll be there
Minutes hold onto hours
Gets you twisting
All
you need to hope you keep your head, yeah
The slow hand quickens
How'd
you leave it with the love you lost?
You made them crawl to be without you
The slow hand quickens
Yeah
sand is empty
In the hourglass I'll be there
To turn it over and over
In your head
So you keep the hope you get your day, yeah
The
slow hand's quicker
You seem too hard to break
Too cold to burn
Afraid your chance is gone
Your wires are crossed
Your mouth is lost
You fear you left it far too long
The minutes passed
The hours are gone
So hard to find your way alone
The
slow hand's quicker, yeah
The slow hand's quicker
The slow hand's quicker
I...
Your slow hand's quicker
Too
much
Straight in, suck up and go,
cool it, swallow, swallow
Breathe deep, take it all
it comes cheap
Push it through the doors
because in between the lines
I'm gonna pack more lines
so I can get in
Ooh traffic jam got more cars
than a beach got sand
Suck it up, suck it up, suck it up,
fill it up until no more
I'm no crazy creep, I've got it coming
to me because I'm not satisfied
The hunger keeps on growing
I eat too much
I drink too much
I want too much
Too much
I've
got to get it somewhere
I mean, you never know, maybe you're dreaming
Who do you think you're watching
Who do you think you need
Play for me, play more,
ten times in the same day
I need more, I'm going
over my borders
I'm going to take more, more
from you, letter by letter
I
eat too much
I drink too much
I want too much
Too much
I
told, god, I'm coming
to your country
I'm going to eat up your cities,
your homes, you know
I've got a stomach full it's not
a chip on my shoulder
I've got this growl in my tummy
and I'm gonna stop it today
I
eat too much
I drink too much
I want too much
Too much
Suck
it up...
Tripping
billies
We were above
You standing underneath us
We were not yet lovers
Dragons were smoked
Bumblebees were stinging us
I was soon to be crazy
Eat, drink and be merry
For tomorrow we die
'Cause we're tripping billies
We're
wearing nothing
Nothing but out shadows
Shadows falling down on the beach sand
Remembering once,
Out on the beaches we wore
Pineapple grass bracelets
So
why would you care
To get out of this place
You and me and all our friends
Such a happy human race
'Cause we're tripping billies
We
are all sitting
Legs crossed round a fire
My yellow flame she dances
Tequila drinking oh our
Minds will wonder
To wonderous places
So
why would you care
To get out of this place
You and me and all our friends
Such a happy human race
Eat,
drink and be merry
For tomorrow we die
Trouble
Trouble
Don't you see
That in your bed
I find no sleep
I confess you came because of me
Trouble get behind me now
Trouble let me be
Cold
wet stone
Deep river bed
Once so clean and clear now runs red
You know to well
Was me that called you here
Trouble get behind me now
Trouble let me be
Oh
sweet day
Leave me behind
I will never call on you
Until the day I die
Pray your mercy shine on me
Pray your mercy shine
Here
I stand
Head bowed for thee
My empty heart begs you
Leave me be
But I confess
You know too well
That I have fallen
Pray your mercy give to me
Pray your mercy shine
Trouble, I'll not trouble thee
Let your mercy shine
Cold
wet stone
River deep and red
Your cold heart beats inside my head
You know too well
It was me that brought you here
Oh, trouble get behind me now
Trouble let me be
I pray your mercy shine on me
Trouble let me be
True
reflections
True Reflections
when you look into a mirror
do you like what's looking at you
now that you've seen your true reflections
what on earth are you gonna do
find
some inspiration
it's down deep inside of you
amend your situation
your whole life is ahead of you
your whole life is ahead of you
remember
the time you hung out with the boys now
remember the things you used to say
i thought by now you'd be the president
but after all that was yesterday
you've had time to go out in the world now
but you chose to run away
people ask you what your doin' now
you don't even know what to say
you
think life is like a movie
where it all works out in the end
i think life is like a dessert
where does it go where does it begin
when you look into a mirror
do you like what's looking at you
now that you've seen your true reflections
what on earth are you gonna do
find
some inspiration
it's down deep inside of you
Two
Step
Say, my love, I came to you with best intentions
You laid down and gave to me just what I'm seeking
Love, you drive me to distraction
Hey my love do you believe that we might last
a thousand years
Or more if not for this,
our flesh and blood
It ties you and me right up
Tie me down
Celebrate
we will
Because life is short but sweet for certain
We're climbing two by two
To be sure these days continue
These things we cannot change
Hey,
my love, you came to me like wine comes to this
mouth
Grown tired of water all the time
You quench my heart and you quench my mind
Celebrate
we will
Because life is short but
sweet for certain
We're climbing two by two
To be sure these days continue
The things we cannot
Celebrate, you and me, climbing two by two, to
be sure
these days continue, things we cannot change
Oh,
my love I came to you
with best intentions
You laid down and gave to me
just what I'm seeking
Celebrate
we will
Because life is short
but sweet for certain
We're climbing two by two
To be sure these days continue
Things we cannot change...
Things we cannot change
Typical
situation
Ten fingers we have each
Nine planets around the sun repeat
Eight ball is the last if you triumphant be
Seven oceans pummel the shores of the sea
It's
a typical situation
In these typical times
Too many choices
Everybody's
happy
Everybody's free
We'll keep the big door open
And everyone'll come around
Why are you different
Why are you that way
If you don't step in line
We'll lock you away
Six
senses keeping
Five around a sense of self
Four seasons turn on and turn off
I can see three corners from this corner
Two is a perfect number
But one
Everybody's
happy
Everybody's free
We'll keep the big door open
And everyone'll come around
Why are you different
Why are you that way
If you don't step in line
We'll lock you away
It's
a typical situation
In these typical times
We can't do a thing about it
Up
and away
Everyday, everyday with you
Every little thing you do the way you do
Little darlin', in your eyes
Got me all up and away
You get me high
I
saw you there since then everyday
It's like I'm lost and thinking of you in every
way
Since I fell into your eyes
All I know is that you get me high
You get me high
Like
I'm dy-oooowhhoooo
Up and away
You take me baby
Oh, you take me baby
And
then you walk the way you walk
You blow my mind to know the way you walk in my
way
Then I fall into your eyes
Up up and away the way your eyes
Oh, baby
The way you make me high
Before
you came you know I didn't care
It's just a game I play
All up and away, I
All up and away
You take me baby
All
for you I give it all
'Cause when I'm thinking of you
When I'm flying above the world
How I wish I was drowning in you
I must admit that I'm oh so in love you know
Please don't ever let me go
You've done nothing to me, but up, up and away
you go
All up and away
Ahh, you take me baby
Yeah
Mmmmm baby
Awwww
baby
Warehouse
Hey reckless mind
Don't throw away your playful beginning
You and I let us fumble around in the touches
And be sure to
Leave
all the lights on
So I can see the black cat changing colors
And walk under ladders
And travel my eyes over you
Hey we have found
Becoming one in a million Slip into the crowd
This question I found in the gap in the sidewalk
Keep
all your sights on
The black cat changing colors
I can walk under ladders
And swim as the tides choose to turn me
And
here I sit
Life goes on, end of tunnel, TV set
Spot in the middle
Static fade, statistic bit
And soon I fade away, fade away
This
I admit
Taste so good, hard to believe an end to it
Smell touch feel
How could this rhythm ever quit
Bags packed on a plane
Hopefully to heaven
Shut
up I'm thinking
I had a clue now it's gone forever
Sitting over these bones
You can read in whatever you're needing to
Keep
all your sights on
The big bad black cat that's
Changing colors
It's
not the colors that matter
But that they'll all fade away
This
I admit
Seems so full
Hard to believe an end to it
Warehouse is bare
Nothing at all inside of it
Walls and halls have disappeared
My
love I love to stay here
In the warehouse
What
would you say
Up and down the puppies' hair
Fleas and ticks jump everywhere
'Cause of original sin
Down
the hill fell Jack and Jill
And you came tumbling after
'Cause of original sin
Rip
away the tears
Drink a hope for happy years
And you may find
A lifetime's passed you by
What
would you say
If you a monkey on a string
If you a doggie on a chain
What would you say
I
was there when the bear
Ate his head, thought it was a candy
Everyone goes in the end
Knock
knock on the door
Who's it for, nobody in here
Look in the mirror my friend
I
don't understand at best
I cannot speak for all the rest
But you may find a lifetime's passed you by
Every
dog has its day every day has its way
Of being forgotten- "Mom it's my birthday"
What
would you say
(Dont' drop the big one)
If you a monkey on a string
(Don't cut my life line)
If you a doggie on a chain
(Don't bite the mailman)
What would you say
What
you are
I walk into this room
All eyes on me now
But I do not know the people inside
Look straight through me these eyes
Seeking more wisdom
Than I have to give away
Realize realize
What you are
What
you’ve become
Just as I have
Are you and I so unalike
Huddled here
You just as I am
Afraid if we dance
We will die
Mock the world
Live safe say why
Don’t you know
When you give life
Then you become
What you are
The
sea is unsparing
We’re all drifting away
Away from you
But I pray for you now
Hoping to god on high
Is like clinging to straws
While drowning oh
What
you’ve become
Just as I have
Are you and I so unalike
Huddled here
You just as I am
Afraid if we dance
We will die
Mock the world
Live safe say why
Don’t you know
When you live life
Then you become
What you are
What
you are
Is a best in a lover’s arms
What you are
Is the devil in a sweet sweet kiss
What you are
Is a puzzle to me
What
you’ve become
Just as I have
Are you and I so unalike
Huddled here
You just as I am
Afraid if we dance
We will die
Mock the world
Live safe say why
Don’t you know
When you live life
Then you become
What you are
When
the world ends
Oh when the world ends
Collect your things
You’re coming with me
When the world ends
You tuckle up yourself with me
Watch it as the stars disappear to nothing
The day the world is over
We’ll be lying in bed
I’m
gonna rock you like a baby when the cities fall
We will rise as the building’s crumble
Midst the burning we’ll be churning
Love will be our wings
Passion rises from the ashes
When the world ends
When
the world ends
You’re gonna come with me
We’re gonna be crazy like a river bends
We’re gonna float through the criss cross
of the mountains
Watch them fade to nothin
When the world ends
You know that’s what’s happenin now
I’m gonna be there with you somehow
Ah ha
I’,
gonna tie you up like a baby in the carriage car
Your legs don’t work cause you want me so
You just lie spread to the wall
Love you got is surely all the love I would ever
need
I’m gonna take you by my side and love you
tall till the world ends
Ohhhhhhhhh
But don’t you worry about a thing
No cause I got you here with me
Mmmmmmm
Don’t you worry about a
Just you and me
Floating through the empty empty
Just you and me
Oh graces
Oh grace
Oh
when the world ends
We’ll be burning one Ah
When the world ends
We’ll be sweet makin love
Oh you know when the world ends
I’m gonna take you aside and say
Let’s watch it fade away fade away
The
worlds done
Ours just begun
Ours just begun
We’re
gonna dive into the emptiness
We be swimming
I’m gonna walk you through the pathless
roads
I’m gonna take you to the top of the mountain
that’s no longer there
I’m gonna take you to bed and love you I
swear like the end is here
I’m
gonna take you up to
I’m gonna take you down on you
I’m gonna hold you like an angel
I’m
gonna love you
I’m gonna love you
When the world ends
I’m gonna hold you
When the world is over
We’ll just be beg...
Where
are you going
Where are you going, with your long face pulling
down?
Don’t hide away, like an ocean
But you can’t see, but you can smell
And the sound waves crash down
I
am no superman
I have no answers for you
I am no hero, oh that’s for sure
But I do know one thing for sure
Is where you are, is where I belong
I do know, where you go, is where I want to be
Where
are you going, where do you go?
Are you looking for answers, to questions under
the stars?
If along the way you are growing weary, you can
rest with me until a brighter day
It’s okay, where are you going, where do
you go?
I
am no superman
I have no answers for you
I am no hero, oh that’s for sure
But I do know one thing for sure
Is where you are, is where I belong
I do know, where you go, is where I want to be
Where
are you going, where do you go?
Are you looking for answers, where do you go?
Where
are you going?
Where do you go?
Let’s go.
You
might die trying
To change the world
start with one step
However small
first step is hardest of all
Once you get your gait
you'll be walking tall
You said you never did
cause you might die tryin
cause you might die tryin
cause you
If
you close your eyes
because the house is on fire
and think you couldn't move
until the fire dies
The things you never did
cause you might die tryin
cause you might die tryin
you'll be as good as dead
cause you might die tryin
cause you might die tryin
If
you give you begin to live
if you give you begin to live
you begin
you get the world
if you give you begin to live
you get the world
you get the world
if you give you begin to live
you might die tryin....
You
never know
Sitting still as stone watching - watching
People walking by you wondering why
No one ever stops to talk or thinks about it –
if they ever did
What if God shuffled by?
One
day we might see
Doing not a thing
Breathing just to breathe
We might find some reason
But
rushing around seems what’s wrong with the
world
Don’t lose the dreams inside your head
They’ll only be there til you’re dead
Dream
Lying
on the roof counting
The stars that fill the sky I wonder if
Someone in the heavens looking back down on me
– I’ll never know
So much space to believe
Funny
when you’re small
The moon follows the car
There’s no one but you see
Hey, the moon is chasing me
I
worried if I looked away she’d be gone
Don’t lose the dreams inside your head
They’ll only be there til you’re dead
Dream
Walking
through the wood
No cares in the world
The world has come to play
She’s all mine just for a day
There’s
not a moment to lose in the game
Don’t let the troubles in your head
Steal too much time you’ll soon be dead
So play
All
fall down
It won’t be so long now
Out of the darkness comes light like a flash
You think you can you think you can
Sometimes that is the problem
Dream little darling dream
Spinning
on the wind
The leaf fell from the limb
But
everyday should be a good day to die
Oh all fall down
It won’t be too long now
Every fire dies
I find it hard to explain how I got here
I think I can I think I can
Then again I will falter
Dream little darling dream
Spinning
on the wind
The leaf fell from the limb
