When I pull the wings off of the fly
The fly never wonders why I did it
When I pull the wings off of the fly
The fly never wonders why I did
You know they didn't ever
Have to love me
No, no, no
And no one ever will ever
Love them now
Oh, oh, but they
They always wanted somehow
To save me
Why, oh, why
For pity's sake, they should've saved themselves
Oh, oh, but you
You always said I never missed a note
I only ever wanted to be with you
I only wanted someone to play
Play, play, play
When I pull the wings off the fly
The fly never wonders why
You know they never really ever had to love me
No, no, no
But no one will ever love them now
Oh, oh, but they
They always thought that somehow they could save me
But why oh why
For pity's sake me, they should've saved themselves
but you
you always said I never missed a note
and nobody ever knew me like you do, you do
You always said it's gonna be ok, ok
I only ever really wanted to be with you
I only wanted someone to play, play, play, play
When I pull the wings off of the fly
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
Like breathing just to breathe
We might find some reason
But rushing around that's
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--You 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
And 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
With no cares in the world
The world she's come to play
She's all mine just for a day
And in no time to waste
In the play of this 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
And everyday should be a good day to die
Oh all fall down
It won't be soo 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
Oh, I think I can I think I can
I think I can I think I can
Dream little darling dream
Spinning on the wind
The leaf fell from the limb
Oh, when the world ends
Collect your things, you're comin' 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
Oh, we'll be lyin' in bed
I'm-a rock you like a baby
When the cities fall
We will rise as the buildings crumble
Float there and watch it all
Midst the burnin', we'll be churnin'
You know, love will be our wings
The passion rises up 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 nothing
When the world ends, you know
That's what's happenin'
Now, I'm gonna be there with you somehow, oh
I'm 'onna tie you up like baby
In a carriage car
Your legs don't worry cause you want me so
You just lie spread to the wall
The love you got is surely all the love
I would ever need
I'm 'onna take you by my side and love you tall
'til the world ends
But don't you worry 'bout a thing
Cause I got you here with me
Hmm, don't you worry 'bout it
Just you and me floatin' through the empty, empty
Just you and me, oh, graces, oh grace, ah
When the world ends
We'll be burnin' 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"
When the world's done
Ours just begun, it's done
Ours just begun
We're gonna dive into the emptiness
We'll be swimming
I'm gonna walk you through the pathtless roads
I'm-a 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 near
I'm gonna take you up to
I'm gonna take it down on you
I'm gonna hold you like an angel, 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....
....begining. Oh when the world ends you and I
We be flying high above it all. Oh look at the new moon
You and me. Doie doie do. Oh when the world ends
It's happening now. And I am gonna be there with you somehow.
Yeah.
Walk into this room, oh
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?
I don't hear you just as i am
Afraid if we dance we might die
We'll mock the world, lest they say,
Why don't you know?
only when you give life, oh then you become what you are
The sea is unsparing
We are all drifting away, away from you, i pray for you now
Hoping to God on high is
Like clinging to straws while drowning,
Realize, realize what you are
What you've become just as i have
Are you and i so unalike?
I don't hear you just as i am
Afraid if we dance we might die
So fuck the world, lest they say,
Why don't you know?
Only when you give love, oh then you become what you are
What you are
is the beast in the lover's arms
what you are
is the devil in the sweet sweet kiss
what you are
is missing a piece
what you are
is a puzzle to me
What you've become just as i have
Are you and i so unalike?
I don't hear you just as i am
Afraid if we sing we might die
We'll mock the world, lest they say,
Why don't you trust me?
only when you give love, oh then you become what you are.
Why dont trust me?
Trust YOU!!!!
No trusting, trust you!!!!
What you are?
Little bit, little bit on.
What you are?
Never know, never know.
What you are?
I got caught with a smoking gun.
I was falling always
And now I'm falling this way
What will become of me
When I'm all far away
I'm spinning down
I'm spinning up
Upon this way
Wondering what will become of me
When I'm all far away
I'm spinning down
I'm all away
A greater way
What will become of me?
(Note: This is the original version of Pantala Naga Pampa)
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 to happy years
And you may find
A lifetime's passed you by
What would you say
Don't drop the big one
If you a monkey on a string
Don't cut my lifeline
If you a doggie on a chain
Don't bite the mailman
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, there's nobody in here
Look in the mirror my friend
I don't understand at best
And cannot speak for all the rest
In the morning rise
A lifetime's passed me by
What would you say
Don't drop the big one
If you a monkey on a string
Don't cut my lifeline
If you a doggie on a chain
Don't bite the mailman
What would you say
Every dog has its day every day has its way
Of being forgotten -
Mom it's my birthday
So we wrote,
On precedents and angels,
We build a book,
We build a road out of nothing but a saying,
On governments and police we build a book,
Of how the things we know should be,
So when a man comes with a difference,
A woman comes with an idea,
We crush it down to nothing in the fear that we will lose it,
Open up the books,
I'm guilty of it, too,
Just like all of us,
The information flies without us through,
And say the way,
This may have leave my head run over,
And pass through a night so black I can't see you, oh,
Hope from the speeches spoken in,
Hope from the speeches made day in, day out,
With money paid,
And advertising raging,
A woman and a child sleep well as the day ends
Raising me up,
Raising me like a man, oh, man(?)
Oh mother everything good I've gained I've gained from you,
Oh and mother everything I know I've learned from you, oh,
But, the reign in the house so no one sees me,
Oh, should we brothers and sisters upheave it?
I read a book of a man most worshipped,
A man who most worshipped,
For ideas and for the birth of freedom he showed,
Well, in, oh, in twenty years,
He begged the revolutions come,
So that no pig headed bastard would steal you and I from.../my fun(?)
Rain in the eyes,
Rain in the mourning eye,
Oh, rain/reign in the love of my mother, my brothers,
And I hear the voices of the women calling loudly and (here, Holding, holding, holding),
And nothing should address this like our love for each other...
This land is your land,
This land is my land,
From California to New York Island,
From the redwood forest,
To the Gulf Stream waters,
This land belongs to you and me,
Rain/reign in the eyes that we should lead it,
And the brotherly love and go away,
And rain/reign the eyes that we should lead it...
I See that watermelon
Smiling through the fence
I wish that watermelon it was mine
Sometimes i think that old folks
Ain't got a lick of sense
When they leave that watermelon on the vine,
Well apples are sweet and peaches are good,
Rabbits, so very very fine
But give me oh give me oh,
How i wish you would,
Some of that watermelon smiling on the vine..
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
Put on my blue suede shoes and I
Boarded the plane
Touched down in the land of the Delta Blues
In the middle of the pouring rain
W.C. Handy
Won't you look down over me
Yeah, I got a first class ticket
But I'm as blue as a boy can be
Then I'm walking in Memphis
I was walking with my feet 10 feet off of Beale
Walking in Memphis
But do I really feel the way I feel
Saw the ghost of Elvis
On Union Avenue
Followed him up to the gates of Graceland
Then I watched him walk right through
Now, security did not see him
They just hovered round his tomb
But there's a pretty little thing
Waiting for the king
Down in the jungle room
When I was walking in Memphis
I was walking with my feet 10 feet off of Beale
Walking in Memphis
Do I really feel the way I feel
Now, they've got catfish on the table
They've got gospel in the air
The Reverend Green, he'd be glad to see you
When you haven't got a prayer
Boy, you got a prayer in Memphis
Muriel plays piano
Every Friday at the Hollywood
And they brought me down to see her
And they asked me if I would
Do a little number
So I sang with all my might
She said, "Tell me are you a Christian, child?"
And i said, "Ma'am, I am tonight!"
Walking in Memphis
I was walking with my feet 10 feet off of Beale
Walking in Memphis
But do I really feel the way I feel
Walking in Memphis
I was walking with my feet 10 feet off of Beale
Walking in Memphis
Do I really feel the way I feel
Put on my blue suede shoes and I
Boarded the plane
Touched down in the land of the Delta Blues
In the middle of the pouring rain
Touched down in the land of the Delta Blues
In the middle of the pouring rain
Up and Away(Some Devil) - Dave Matthews
Everyday everyday with you
Every little thing you do the way you do
Little darling in your eyes
Got me up up and away, you get me high
I saw you there since then everyday
Is like i'm lost and thinking of you in everyway
Since i fell into your eyes
All i know is you get me high, you get me high
Like i'm gone up up and away
You take me baby
Oh you take me baby
And then you walk the way you walk
You blow my mind oh the way you walkin my way
And 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 never cared
Its just a game i play yea
Up up and away, up up and away, you take me baby
All for you i'd give it all, cause when i'm thinking of you and i'm flying above the world
How i wish i was drowning in you i must admit i'm so in love
You know
Please dont ever let me go you dont nothing to me but up up and away you go
Up up and away, aww you take me baby
So we're leaving
Friends of mine, brothers and sisters
Hoping that in times of trouble
And that we can lean a bit more
But lately, I swear, nightmare dreams
Are welling in me
And this ship is troubled
All because this ship we're on is sinking...
Hey, my love, I came to you with best intentions
You laid down and gave to me just what I'm seeking
Oh say, my love, you drive me to distraction
Oh, 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... celebrate...
Celebrate we will
'Cause life is short but sweet for certain
Hey, we climb on two by two
To be sure these days continue
Things we cannot change
Oh, my love, you came to me like wine comes to this mouth
Grown tired of water all the time
You quench my heart and, love, you quench my mind
Let's celebrate
Celebrate we will
'Cause life is short but
Sweet for certain
Hey, we climb on two by two
To be sure these days continue
Things we can...
Right up, today
Celebrate we will
Oh, 'cause life is short but
Sweet for certain
We climb on two by two, to be sure

Things we cannot change

Just what I'm seeking
Oh say, come on, let's celebrate with me
Celebrate we will
Oh, 'cause life is short
But sweet for certain
We climb on two by two
To be sure that all these days continue
Things we can...
Oh, yeah...
Oh, we climb on two by two
Oh no, just to be sure
That all these days continue
Things we have not changed
Away...
Its not easy soulless
Trying to stay true enough, well
But you my dear, I tell you true enough, I'm true as I could be
But fall inside this
Stumbling down drunk I wrote that
I find myself more and more mistaking
Myself for someone else...
Hey, my love
I came to you with best intention
You lay down, you give to me just what I'm seeking
Say, my 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 upside, we celebrate
Oh, celebrate we will
Cause life is short but sweet for certain
Hey, we climb on two by two
To be sure these days continue
Things we cannot change
Hey, my love you came to me like wine
Comes to that mouth
Grown tired of water all the time
You quench my heart, and love
You quench my mind, celebrate
Oh, Celebrate we will
Cause life is short but sweet for certain
Hey, we climb two by two
To be sure these days continue
Things we can, right up to today
Celebrate we will
Cause life is short but sweet for certain
We climb on two by two
To be sure that all these days continue
Things we cannot change
Hey, my love
I came to you with best intention
You, You lay down, you give to me just what I'm seeking
Say, won't you all come and celebrate
Celebrate we will
Cause life is short but sweet for certain
We climb on two by two
To be sure that all these days continue
Things we can, oh yeah
Just to be sure all these days continue
Things we cannot change
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
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
Ohhh trouble get behind me now
Trouble let me be
I pray your mercy shine on me
Trouble let me be
if your arms are brittle beside you,
wrapped so soft your blood, is running
i'll be there
if your movin slowly, if we still get there
i'll be there
such a strong desire, like hunger
all you need to hope you keep your head
yeaaaah
is the slow hand quickens
what youve done with all those around you
hopeful always that someone will come and save you
i'll be there
to watch you saultry turning, seething
i'll be there
minutes hold on to hours, gets you twisting
all you need to hope you keep your head
yeaahhh uhhhh unnn
the slow hand quickens
how to leave it with the love you lost
you made them crawl to be without you,
the slow hand quickens
yes, end is empty, and the hour glass
i'll be there
to turn it over and over, in your head
so you keep the hope you'll get your day
yeaaah ohhhhh
as the slow hand quickens
you see too hard, to break, to cold
to burn, affriad your chance is gone
wires are corssed, your mouth is lost
you fear you've left it far too long,
the minutes pass, the hours are gone
so hard to find your way alone
the slow hands quicker
the slow hands quicker
aaahhahaaa
the slow hands quicker
Look at how she listens
She says nothing of what she thinks
she just goes stumbling through her memories
staring out onto gray street
But she thinks-
hey how did I come to this
I dreamed myself a million times around the worldthere's
but I can't get out of this place
OH there's a loneliness inside her
and she'd do anything to fill it in
and though its red blood bleeding from her now
felt like cold blue ice in her heart
when all the colors mixed together to gray
and it breaks her heart
ya know she wishes it was different
and she preys to god most every night
and though he's quite sure he doesn't listen
there's a tiny hope in her he might
she says i prey
oh but my prayers they fall on deaf ears
am i supposed to take it on myself to get out of this place
oh there's an emptiness inside her
and she'd do anything to fill it in
and though its red blood bleeding from her now
felt like cold blue ice in her heart
ya know she feels like kicking out all the windows
and setting fire to this life
she would change everything about her
using colors bold and bright
but all the colors mix together to gray
and it breaks her heart
it breaks her heart
to breathe
yeah yeah yeah
(by Daniel Lanois)(lyrics are written by Josh Parker)
Oh, oh deep water, black and cold like the night
I stand with arms wide open,
I've run a twisted mile
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
And from across the great divide, In the distance I saw a light
Jean Baptiste walking to me with the Maker
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 there 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...
Come in from the cold for a while
Everything will be alright
Come in from the noise for a time
Everything will be alright
Everything will be alright
For now, goodbye, friend,
Goodbye.
You cannot quit me so quickly
Is no hope in you for me
No corner you could squeeze me
But I got all the time for you, love
The space between the tears we cry
Is the laughter keeps us coming back for more
The space between the wicked lies we tell
And hope to keep safe from the pain
But will I hold you again?
These fickle, fuddled words confuse me
Like, will it rain today?
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'll be
The space between the wicked lies we tell
And hope to keep safe from the pain
But will I hold you again?
Will I hold?
Look at us spinning out in the madness of a roller coaster
You know you went off like the Devil in a church
In the middle of a crowded room
All we can do, my love is hope we don't take this ship down
But the space between where you're smilin' high
Is where you'll find me if I get to go
The space between the bullets in our firefight
Is where I'll be hiding, waiting for you
The rain that falls splash in your heart
Ran like sadness down the window into your room
The space between our wicked lies
Is where we hope to keep safe from pain
Take my hand 'cause we're walking out of here
Oh, right out of here, love 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 mine
Is the space we'll fill with time
The space between
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 are we
If hate's the gate to peace
This is the last stop
For raining tears
The only way to Peace
I don't fall for that
Raining tears
You're righteous so 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 on the cross
Your sins are washed enough
Mother's cry
Is hate so deep
Must my 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, so righteous
You're always so right
Oh my...
But why your lie
Go ahead and dream
Go ahead and believe that you are the chosen one
This is the best stop
Here there's always blowing up
And I hope that we can break it down
So it's not so black and white
This is the last stop
Here there's more than is showing us
And I hope that we can break it down
So it's not so black and white
Black and white
You're righteous
You're righteous
You're righteous
You're always so right
And there you are nailing a good tree
Abd then say forgive me, forgive me
Go ahead and dream
Go ahead and believe that you are the chosen one
This is the last stop
Here there is more than growing up
And I hope that we can break it down
So it's not so black and white
The ingots are burning red
I'm working time and a half
Tomorrow I'll stay in bed
what a life I lead what a life
laugh in my face why don't you
laugh with the rest I know it well
I tripped and then I fell for
the beauty of Wynona
At night I toss and I turn
and I try and dial your number
It's changed and God only knows
where you been since last December
Where you been with that twisted smile
Laying another on the pile
It ain't easy when we go down for
the beauty of Wynona
Girls they skip double dutch
I saw you there prayed my God
But my prayers don't mean nothin much
with a heart that cannot be won
Rain in that wishing well
Right here in my own bed
It ain't easy when we go down for
the beauty of wynona
every night stopping
it's raining
scary oh
so rage you again
your
on fire
i one decide to run out
oh they got off you did
wonder where you say you knew
sugar ain't poison
but sugar will kill you
it's too much of a good thing
maybe not so
i wasn't somebody
no hand out
i give you
i stare back and
gonna let you out
i wonder what you
all of sad you knew
sugar ain't poison
but sugar will kill you
too much of a good thing
maybe not so
you did what you thought was fitting baby
dreams about oh what is sunning you
oh baby
i hung up my package
never no never you knew
sugar ain't poison
but sugar will kill you
too much of a good thing
Big dog bites the bone
Life's too short to take all this
Not true when what's more:
Life's too short to mind
Just keep on with
The Sweet Up and Down
Unturning her cheek
Inside-out, her neat little pose
Dirty, little girl
Climbs out of the hole in her own
In this Sweet up and Down
I believe in love
But believe it's my heart that keeps turning me down
I believe in love
I think it's just fine
Oh, the Sweet up and Down
Big pig turns to me
Pig he needs to eat like us all
Not far from the beast
Man sits down to feast on this part
Of the Sweet up and down
I believe in love
And believe it's my heart that keeps turning me down
I believe in love
I think it's just fine
On the Sweet up and Down
BT...
Up and down, inside out
Outside in some you lose some
You win for us all
Up and down we go
Bad times choke us all once or twice
On this Sweet up and Down
I believe in love
But think nothing about it when you're not around
I believe in love
I think you're just fine
On the Sweet up and Down
I believe in love
But believe in my heart that keeps turning me down
I believe in love
I think you're just fine

sitting naked drinking coffee making plans to change the world
I See that watermelon
Smiling through the fence
I wish that watermelon it was mine
Sometimes i think that old folks
Ain't got a lick of sense
When they leave that watermelon on the vine,
Well apples are sweet and peaches are good,
Rabbits, so very very fine
But give me oh give me oh,
How i wish you would,
Some of that watermelon smiling on the vine..
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
Last night, no way
I was gonna be left hungry
and then your daddy caught me sneakin' out your bed.
It's just a game I play
It's just I roll that way
Don't think sweet baby
I'm messing with your head.
I'm a smooth rider baby
You know I just keep moving 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 you see me out there runnin'
And you hear the sheriffs comin'
Your daddy's crazy with that gun in his hand.
If you know they coming for me
And you know they 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 moving 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 (Ahhhh)
If you see me out there running
And you If you hear the sheriffs coming
Your daddy's crazy with that gun in his hand.
If you know their coming for me
And you know they running for me
You know my love won't let them keep me away
I'm a smooth rider baby
Oh, I'm a smooth rider baby
Passing time with you in mind
It's another quiet night
Feel the ground against my back
CountING stars against the black
Think about another day
Wishing I was far away
Wherever I dreamed I was
You were there with me
(Chorus)
Sister, I hear you laugh
My heart fills full up
Keep me please
Sister, when you cry
I feel your tears
Running down my face
Sister, sister, keep me
I hope you always know it's true
I would never make it through
You could make the sun go DARK
Just by walking away
Playing like we used to play
Like it would never go away
I feel you beating in my chest
I'd be dead without
(Chorus)
Sister, I hear you laugh
My heart fills full up
Keep me please
Sister, when you cry
I feel your tears
Running down my face
Sister, sister, you keep me
I hope you always know it's true
I would never make it through
You could make the heavens fall
Just by walking away
(Chorus)
Sister, I hear you laugh
My heart fills full up
Keep me please
Sister, when you cry
I feel your tears
Running down my face
If i sing a song,
will you sing along,
If i sing a song,
will you sing along,
If i sing a song,
will you sing along,
or should I just keep singing right here by myself?
Ba baba dada baba....
If i tell you I'm strong,
will you play along,
If i tell you I'm strong,
will you play along,
If i tell you I'm strong,
will you play along,
Or would you see I'm as insecure as everybody else
Its like..
Ba Ba Baba Daba ba....
If I follow along,
does it mean I belong,
If I follow along,
does it mean I belong,
If I follow along,
does it mean I belong,
or will I keep on feeling different from everybody else?
Its life...
Ba Bada Ba Ba Dababa.. Oh Oh Oh
If I sing a song, will you sing along,
If I sing a song, will you sing that song,
or should I just keep singing right here by myself
If I sing a song, will you sing along,
If I sing a song, should i just keep singing right here by,
should I just keep singing by myself
If I sing a song, would you sing along,
Would you, Could you Sing along
Should I just keep singing right here by, by myself
Should I, Should I
Sing a song, (baba) Sing along, (baba)
Would you still sing along, (baba)
Please, or should I just keep right here singing by myself
If I still sing a song (baba), would you sing along,
Sing with me, or just Take it home,
or I'll just keep singing right here by myself
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 see and what we do
I'm not going to change my ways
Just to please you or appease you
Look at this crowd, nine thousand proud
Willing to punch it out
Right, wrong, weak, strong
Ashes to ashes all fall down
Oh, 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 kept at bay
Forget about being guilty,
We are innocent instead
For soon we will all find our lives swept away
Oh, Look at me in my fancy car
And my bank account
Oh, how I wish I could take it all down
Into my grave, God knows I'd save and save
Man, Take a look again, take a look again,
Things you have collected,
Well in the end it all piles up so tall
to one big nothing, one big nothing at all
Forget about the reasons and
The treasons we are seeking
Forget about the notion that your emotions can be
kept at bay
Forget about being guilty, i am innocent instead
For soon we will all find our lives swept away
And you know how it is,
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, oh say
Late at night with TV's hungry child
his belly swells
Well, for the price of a coke or a smoke
I could keep alive those hungy eyes
Take a look again, take a look again,
Take a look again
Everyday things change,...basically they stay the same
Forget about the reasons and
The treasons we are seeking
Forget about the notion that
Our emotions can be kept at bay
Forget about being guilty,
We are 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
Fall back again, fall back again, fall back again...
Ashes to ashes, dust to dust,
Fall back again...
from "Some Devil"
Ah, comin' through the desert, I met a man
Who told me of his crazy plan
He'd been walking there for 20 days
He was gonna walk on for 20 more
Said, "How 'bout a drink or a bite to eat?"
I said, "No, my faith is all I need"
Sit and save me

You don't need to prove a thing to me

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're done
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
walk and talk, we both do quite well
and kissing all the time, kissing all the time
and I'm looking forward to much more
so we dance our way around a rosy
we do our best to contain this thing inside everyone
so fear we fear and fear and speak to no one else
i say
i will give you water
if you will share your wine
and i will feed your heart
if you promise to feed mine
and we will dance together
bububaabaa
till the end of time
till the end of time
Whatcha got
whatcha got in your hand
the father said his son
I got the whole world here daddy
’tween my fingers and my thumb
will you take care of it please?
it's the only one
it'd take me a lifetime old man
to undo whatcha done
to undo whatcha done
oh c'mon now
boy think what would Jesus do
he'd shake his head like an angry mother
spoke the boy and say ‘I did what I could do'
will you take care of it please?
it's the only one ya got
it'll take ten lifetimes boy
to unto 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 please, can I give it just a little twist?
Boy shrugged walked away
The man stood and watched that boy disappearing
Boy just walked away
The man stood there twisting
One hand is bleeding, and the other hand holds the gun
Everything is open
Now everything is shut down, down, down
No one is hoping, even if you know
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, the boy was leaving
Boy just walked away
The man stood there twisting
One hand is open and the other hand holds the gun
Everything is undone
Or is everything coming down, down, down
No one is hoping, even if you know
You never know it all
Nothing more than my point of view.
Boy shrugged walked away
The man stood and watched as he was leaving
The man just stood there twisting
Lies and reason you give
Too much is not enough
Leave, what you see leave alone
Someone else to go
Romance holds you to tea, yeah
Sip it like you're typical
My love is what you make of it
Brothers and sisters, it's not enough...
Not enough
Talk, call, talking of leading the way
Won't ya give any lie?
Of all the ways
Won't ya lie with me?
Man, I've no Raven to see here
Flies the blackest way
What you give when you get nothing
Is everything you give
All been tossed away
Read, light your morning candles
Make your way
All wise men today grieve
It knows no better thing
All I leave here, a way to send you all down, down, down
All my worries is where the girl will be found, found, found
All my worries of all those things that I dreamed and dreamed and dreamed
All I leave is, I have to say
It's nothing more than my point of view
It's hard and cold tonight
You're warming by a fire
Oh, sweet juice
Drink tonight
Take me while I'm out
No, no Raven to see here
It imitates beauty well
Black bird from a dark Heaven
Oh, won't you keep living a lie
All God tossed away
Read while you know
You know things fade to grey
Oh, what came of grace
Oh, the morning and the rain
All my worries warn enough to roam, roam, roam
Fade away here, the girl will go round and round and round
Hey, love...
What was the greatest thing you
Moments in the cold rain
Here to say there's nothing great that you wouldn't do
Fly, Raven...
Won't you guide me?
Oh, what's the reason?
Won't you guide me?
Wait, now, what is the Raven?
Won't you come to me?
What you did with the same grace at all
Won't you keep living a lie
All been tossed away
Read all you'll have ever known
I believe
All I know today
Read all to believe
Come and see
I swear by now I'm playing time
I 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 wont tell you to stay
But I'm coming to much more
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
notice 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 would take any more than
What sort of man goes by
I will bring water
Why wont you ever be glad
It melts into wonder
I came in praying for you
why wont you run
in the rain and play
let the tears splash all over you
Hey man I noticed you were
You were crying
Ohh shame on you would leave it inside
Mind open your mind you say "no, well no, will I"
Hey cause yourself all alone
You will lie down
Oh, put yourself away from all your love
And you will soon lie down
Said I can leave it way open eyes
I go to you see me whine
See me lie here
Oh, call see me whine call you way down
The pain has been riddling me oh will I, yeah
Open, I will
I will leave it to destiny to choose which way I go to
I will leave destiny
To choose which direction it is that I'm gong to
My face open eye you leave I mean I
And I will
And we will leave most men, most men lie
I fear that we will go away most men, most men

Mama pyjama rolled outta bed, and go to the police station
When my papa found out, he began to shout
And started the investigation
It was against the law, it was against the law
What your mama saw, it was against the law
Mama looks down and spits on the ground
Every time my name gets mentioned
And my papa said oy, if I ever get that boy
I'm gonna stick him in the house of Detenton
Said I'm on my way, I don't know where I'm goin
Said I'm on my way, I'm takin my time, but I don't know where
Goodbye to Rosie, the queen of Corona
Seein me and Julio down by the schoolyard
Seein me and Julio down by the schoolyard
Well in a couple of days they're gonna take me away

Now when the radical breach comes to get me released
We all got on the cover of Newsweek
Said I'm on my way, I don't know where I'm goin

My heart was made of broken bones
My Soul's a bag of stick and stone
And out along this dusty road
You have come my love to take me home
I give to you my everything
You've given me these loving wings
And angels have all gathered round
to hear me sing my love out loud (oh...)
You lightly lifted me away
Out of a darkness, cold and gray
And I work beneath the midday sun
My cool blue water you have come
I give to you my everything
You've given me these loving wings
And angels have all gathered round
to hear me sing my love out loud (oh...)
So take your place here next to me
And I'll take my place there next to thee
And no matter how far YOU may roam
Its by your side I make my home
I give to you my everything
You've given me these loving wings
And angels have all gathered round

Lyrics:
Where you are, that's where I wanna be
And through your eyes, all the things I wanna see
And in the night, you are my dream
You're everything to me
Chorus:
You're the love of my life
And the breath in my prayers
Take my hand, lead me there
What I need is you here
I can't forget the taste of your mouth
From your lips the heavens pour out
I can't forget when we are one
With you alone I am free
Bridge:
Everyday, every night, you alone
You're the love of my life
Everyday, every night, you alone,
You're the love of my life
Outro:
We go dancing in the moonlight
With the starlight in your eyes
We go dancing till the sunrise
Ten years ago, on a cold dark night
Someone was killed, 'neath the town hall light
There were few at the scene, but they all agreed
That the slayer who ran, looked a lot like me
The judge said son, what is your alibi
If you were somewhere else, then you won't have to die
I spoke not a word, thou it meant my life
For I'd been in the arms of my best friend's wife
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, the scaffold is high and eternity's near
She stood in the crowd and shed not a tear
But late at night, when the north wind blows
In a long black veil, she cries ov're my bones
Oh in excitement
home that we call this
we charge with an eye on the line
and we go over
oh proud and strong
we come down on babies and mothers
and leave them to die
while we plant all over
and call it home
So weep at life
and leave me pray there
but still I should call it home
native soil
has anyone stolen land
and I love it like no other
And now my grandfather say
open your charge
you charge when the trumpet calls
blow on your flute
pound on your drum
victory calls
oh no mother or child could
resist any strong beat
drive on west
we will plant we will grow
Wait and see my heart is bleeding
but still I should call it home
and teach my babies
my sons and my daughters
to love this place
and share it with no one
Then we started we ???? bounty
I will plant my wheat
I will hold my land here
I will protect my ones
I will protect my golden
I will stand up on top
and scream that I own land
But what if the spirit lies in this way
still should I call it home
and then I will tell
my sons and my daughters
to hold it so dear
and share it with all
then I will tell
my sons and my daughters
to hold it so dear
and share it with everyone
This land is your land
this land is my land
from California to the New York islands
from the red wood forests
to the gulf stream waters
this land was made for you and me
I see you now
Oh fill me now
I feel it's coming down
My voice cries out
And I only hope
That you're the one my voice will fall upon
I play my cards
But it's by the grace of love
That I play my cards at all
Come fill me up
Oh fill me now when I'm empty
When I'm all dried out
Rain, rain, rain down on me
Again and again
Rain down on me
Oh I see you now
I see them all, see them all
They line up to drink the blood
I see it now
I believe the devil
And the lord have been dancing all along
Rain, rain, rain down on me
Again and again
Rain down on me
I feel it now
I see you standing there like an angel
That fell down from above
I see you now
I don't believe that anything
But a billion years could make you what you are
Rain, rain, rain down on me
Again and again
Rain down on me
Rain, rain, rain down on me

Lately I've been feeling low
A remedy is what I'm seeking
I take a taste of what's below
Come away to something better
What I want is what I've not got
And 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
Till I get to the end of this tunnel Mommy
If you could keep me floating
Just for a while
I'll get back to you
Sometimes a Jimi Thing slides my way and keeps me swinging
I'd like to show you what's inside
And I shouldn't care
If you don't like it
Brother chaos rule all about
Sometimes I walk there
Well yes God knows sometimes I take a bus there
Shouldn't care shouldn't care
Bereaved as I'm feeling
The day is gone
I'm on my back
Staring up at the ceiling
U take a drink sit back relax
Smoke my mind make me feel
Better for a small time

And what I need Is all around me
Reaching searching never stop

Just for a while
Till I get to the end of this tunnel Mommy
If you could keep me floating
Just for a while

But what I need is all around me
Reach and search and never stop
And I'll say...
If you could keep me floating just for a while

There are places I'll remember
All my life though some have changed
Some forever not for better
Some have gone and some remain
All these places have their moments
With lovers and friends I still can recall
Some are dead and some are living
In my life I've loved them all
But of all these friends and lovers
There is no one compares with you
And these memories lose their meaning
When I think of love as something new
Though I know I'll never lose affection
For people and things that went before
I know I'll often stop and think about them
In my life I'll love you more
Though I know I'll never lose affection
For people and things that went before
I know I'll often stop and think about them
In my life I'll love you more
In my life I'll love you more...
If I had a boat
I'd go out on the ocean
And if I had a pony
I'd ride him on my boat
And we could all together
Go out on the ocean
Me upon my pony on my boat
If I were Roy Rogers
I'd sure enough be single
I couldn't bring myself to marrying old Dale
It'd just be me and trigger
We'd go riding through them movies
Then we'd buy a boat and on the sea we'd sail
And if I had a boat
I'd go out on the ocean
And if I had a pony
I'd ride him on my boat
And we could all together
Go out on the ocean
Me upon my pony on my boat
The mystery masked man was smart
He got himself a Tonto
'Cause Tonto did the dirty work for free
But Tonto he was smarter
And one day said kemo sabe
Kiss my ass I bought a boat
I'm going out to sea
And if I had a boat
I'd go out on the ocean
And if I had a pony
I'd ride him on my boat
And we could all together
Go out on the ocean
Me upon my pony on my boat
And if I were like lightning
I wouldn't need no sneakers
I'd come and go wherever I would please
And I'd scare 'em by the shade tree
And I'd scare 'em by the light pole
But I would not scare my pony on my boat out on the sea
And if I had a boat
I'd go out on the ocean
And if I had a pony
I'd ride him on my boat
And we could all together
Go out on the ocean
Me upon my pony on my boat
When was the point that you showed-
Move on to another love
Laughing with kindness
When did you decide to break
How much more will it take for two people to be happy?
But you lied
Looked me straight in the eye
As if you had nothing to hide
With no shame
As if we were still the same
But now I'm back in the game
I'm over you
When did you decide to go?
Were you ever going to let me know?
I was deciding
When did you decide to change?
What did I do that made our situation weary?
When you lied
You looked me straight in the eye
As if you had nothng to hide
With no shame
As if we still were the same
But now im back in the game
I'm over you
Who was the one to tell?
I thought I knew you way too well
But I didn't
The thought of you thinking of him
Assumptions made on a whim
Drives me crazy
'Cause you lied
Looked me staight in the eye
As if you had nothing to hide
(But I know you did)
With no shame
As if we still were the same
But now I"m back in the game
I'm Over you
I waited 'till I saw the sun,
I don't know why I didn't call,
I left you by the house of fun,
I don't know why I didn't call,
I don't know why I didn't call...
When I saw the break of day,
I wished that I could fly away,
Instead of kneeling in the sand,
Catchin teardrops in my hand,
My heart is drenched in white,
You'll be on my mind forever,
I'd cross the endless sea,
I would die in ecstasy,
But I'll be a bag of bones,
Driving down the road alone,
My heart is drenched in white,
And you'll be on my mind forever,
Something has to make you wrong,
I don't know why I didn't call,
I didn't call I feel as empty as a drum,
I don't why I didn't call,
I don't know why I didn't call,
I don't know why I didn't call...
So I can see you
Hold me down
If running's what's got into me
What cries my name
I won't set you away
Oh I'm older
Still the years give
And I'll walk into the big line
And I'll hold me
And soon I'm in the big door
And your deceit is growing big (?!?)
Oh, I know
That you rather be somewhere else
But I'm not here all alone
Trying to wish you so
Hold Me Down
If I've got the fear
Hold Me up
If running's what's gotten into me
Cause cry as I may
These tears won't wash you away
Though I'm older
I cry like a baby everyday
Then I come into the big line
Let it all go out in the wee hours of the morn'
I'm coming back a chased time (?)
And the fool will leap to bed (?)
Cry as I may
These tears won't wash you away
Then I'm --
And I'm all facing at an empty room again
No one's coming to the *****
I feel the **** is rising
Oh, *****
Cry as I may
These tears won't wash you away.
Ten years gone, I’ve dealt with this
Still hope the Lord forgive me my sin.
Ten years ago, down by the lake,
I dug my sweet love a watery grave
When I close my eyes I still see her face,
I’d give anything to take back that day.
Hello again, it’s been too long
Too long, too long
Hello again
You know you got what it is I want
Anyway I’m gonna take it back
Hello again, it’s been too long
Too long, too long
Hello again
Hello, hello, you know, hello
Then all the way again
Over and over
I’m gonna see your face
Beggin’ on that day there
Over and over
I’m gonna see her face
On that day, by the lake dying.
I pray to God, bring back that day
I am a waste of the air in my lungs.
Stay far from me, go and be safe
The serpent, not God, runs through my veins
Hello again, it’s been too long
Too long, too long
Hello again
You know you got what it is I want
Anyway I’m gonna take it back
Hello again, it’s been too long
Too long, too long
Hello again
You know, You know, Hello, Hello
Then all the way again
Over and over
I’m gonna see your face
Yeah, that day again
Over and over
I’m gonna see her face
Blown away, on that day I hate.
Yeah, yeah I scream...
With you on my mind so heavy and so hard
I don't know quite everything
You make me think of a better thing...
Better things to fill my day with
But they don't mean to go
Please don't be too bad with me, God
Please don't be too good...
Let some women's light, women's light
Chain my hands with me singing...
Hani Hani, come and dance for me
Whoa, whoa, sooner there
Hani Hani, come and dance for me
Only the brave
Hani Hani, come and dance for me
(feeling the night)
Hani Hani, come and dance for me
Lead me back home to life
You made Heaven turn to dirt
And dirt turn to dance on
Heaven come my way
Baby surely do
Maybe some moonlight
Maybe some, baby surely do
Maybe some moonlight
Say this say this...
Hani Hani, come and dance for me
Underneath the moonlight
Hani Hani come and dance for me
Hani Hani, come and dance for me
Come on, come on go
Hani Hani, come and dance for me
Give it back, give it back....
Oh man, I can't talk
A man was tall and once tore a piece of freedom for us all
When, then, you least expect it
Man can cut from of his own heart
For us all, that man
Don't believe it, oh yeah....
God, two men slice and dice each other up in his place
They don't believe it...
Well leave it
Leave it lying, leave it lying, leave it lying
Got me singing
Hani Hani, come and dance for me
Oh, look at how she listens,
She says nothing of what she thinks...
she just goes stumbling through her memories
staring out onto grey street.
But she thinks hey,
how did I come to this?
I dreamed 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 he doesn't listen,
there's still a hope in her he 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 an 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.
Oh, with it, take the work out of the courage.
And she says please, there's a crazy man,
he'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.
It could change every thing about her
using colors, bold and bright,
but all the colors mix together to grey
and it breaks her heart.
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
Let's begin
It started with a plan
To get out of here
Said "hey comin' "
Cuz the weather don't wait for no one
And sure not us
Seems so precious
Or maybe we're just tired
And bored with our lives
Because it
Seems so sinful at the same time
5 miles out of town
She turns to me and says
"Is it too late to turn around?"
Cuz I think I forgot my things
And I think we forgot our heads
And it can't get too far without that
Seems so precious
Or maybe we're just tired
And bored with our lives
Because it
Seems so sinful at the same time
Seems so precious
Or maybe we're just tired
And bored with our lives
Because it
Seems so sinful at the same time
Seems so precious
Or maybe we're just tired
And bored with our lives
Because it
Seems so sinful at the same time
She turned around
I seen that face as I watched her say
Goodbye.....
Goodbye........

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 is hiding there in the shadows in the darkness
baby you and I could bring it to the light
love when I approach the tears they fall like rain
you tell me baby your hearts into a thousand pieces dies
stop only the old and wise with clouded eyes
you cant see what I can
but I blindly throw my faith
to the face of the next pretty girl 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 thats hiding there inside you and inside me
but baby the two of us could bring it to the light
love when I approach the tears they fall like rain
you tell me baby your hearts into a thousand pieces dies
stop only old and wise with clouded eyes
you can't see what I can
but I blindly throw my faith
to the face of the next good thing that comes my way
I say its love thats inside here
come on now and share it rich
now maybe you and I could bring it to the light
love when I approach these tears they fall like rain
you tell me your hearts into a thousand pieces
*Dave's random noises*love oh baby love baby baby baby
oh love shout out love baby you and i could bring it to the light
love baby love baby out of all the dark out into the light

Neon shines through smoky eyes tonight
It’s 2 AM, I’m drunk again
It’s heavy on my mind
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 flowing through
Take my heart, take my eyes
'Cause I'll need them no more
If never again they’ll fall upon
The one I so adore
'Scuse 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
Another drink and I’ll move on
One drink to remember, and another to forget
How could I ever dream to find a love like this again
One drink to remember, and another to forget...
Excuse me please, one more drink
Would you make it strong
'Cause I don’t need to think
She broke my heart
My Grace is Gone
Another drink and I’ll move on
One more drink and ill move on...
You think of things impossible
Then the sun refuse to shine
I woke with you beside me
Your cold hand lay in mine
'Scuse 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
Another drink and I’ll go...
'Scuse 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
Another drink and I'll move on
One more drink and I'll move on
One more drink my Grace is Gone.

It's been three nights or so, since I last slept.
Just thinking about the promises you never kept.
And all the times I tried so hard to leave.
In response to words I never could believe.
They told me you're crazy,
They said that you've lost your mind.
And I've got no reason,
to think otherwise.
You told me you loved me,
but I guess that you told me lies.
Now I see the real you,
that hides behind your deep blue eyes.
Wait,
And all our time has seemed to fade.
In the end your colors changed.
And we're now getting over.
Here's all the pictures you never wanted to take.
With your toothless smile that always seemed so fake.
And all the notes you wrote when you got bored.
I don't think I need to read them anymore.
It's all to confusing,
When I don't know where to begin.
It'd almost be easy,
If only we could pretend.
But how could I feel you,
When you'd never let me in.
And how am I to know where you're coming from.
If you never tell me where you'd been.
Wait,
And all our time has seemed to fade.
In the end your colors changed.
And we're now getting over.
Lie for a lie.
But I'm not the unforgiving type.
It'll probably just take a while.
Wait for me to get my feet grounded.
Find the love that you never found in me.
I find love on my feet, in places you'll never be.
Wait til' i find my place in the sky and finally see through my clear eyes,
I soon will realize it's time for me to say good-bye.
You told me you loved me,
but I guess that you told me lies.
I'm so sick of the real you,
that hides behind your deep blue eyes.
They told me you're crazy,
They said that you've lost your mind.
And you have showed me nothing,
To prove them otherwise.
Wait,
And all our time has seemed to fade.
In the end your colors changed.
And we're now getting over.
Again,
Looking back on time we'd spent.
It's funny to remember when
we used to be together.
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
Don't drink the water
There's blood in the water
Don't drink the water
Don't drink the water here...
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?
No room for both, just room for me.
So you will lay your arms down,
Yes, I will call this home.
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,
You must move on or I will bury you.
Now as I rest my feet by this fire
Those hands once warmed here, but I have retired them.
I can breathe my own air and 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
And I live with my greedy need
And I live with no mercy
And I live with my frenzied feet
And I live with my hatred
And I live with my jealousy
And I live with the notion that I don't need anyone but me
Don't Drink the Water
Don't Drink the Water
Blood in the water
Don't Drink the Water
It's All We Say,
It's All We Say,
And So We Say,
Bartender Please,

She was his girl, he was her boy-friend,
Soon be his wife, and make him her husband.
A suprise on the way, anyday anyday
One healthy little gigglin', dribblin', 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 was all around
Not very much of his childhood was known,
kept his mother Mary worried, always out on his own.
He met another Mary, who, for a reasonable fee,
less than reputable was known to be.
His heart was full of Love, Love, Love
Love, Love, Love
Love, Love was all around
When Jesus Christ was nailed to his tree,
He 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've spilled, the blood of my children all around
the blood of my children all around,
the blood of my children's all around
So I'm told or so the story goes,
the people he knew were less than golden-hearted.
Gamblers and robbers; Drinkers and jokers,
all soul searchers, like you and me, like you and me.
Rumors insisted he soon would be,
for his deviations, taken into custody.
By the authorities, less informed than he.
Drinkers and jokers, all soul searchers
Searchin for Love, Love, Love
Love, Love, Love
Love, Love is all around
Preperations 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's all around,
The blood of our children's all around
Father up above,
Why in all this hatred do you fill me up with
Love, Love, Love
Love, Love, Love
Love, Love is all around
Father up above
Why in all this anger do you fill me up wtih love
Fill me - Love, Love, Love
Love, Love, Love
Love, Love, Love
Love, Love, Love
Love, Love, Love
Love, Love, Love
Love, Love...And the blood of our children's all around.

what direction i should turn in now

curious hands and fingertips
day after day

like there's a mutiny brewing inside of me now
but i don't want your pity
only the promise that you'll stay with me tonight
and i am the captain of this ship
curious hands and fingertips
day after day
oh, how i long for you, like crazy
oh my love how you do me

after falling into your arms
oh, mesmorized by your smile
and the way it lights up under your eyes
oh how could i even try
oh won't you stay with me
oh my love how you do me
oh my love come on, let's go again
oh my love everything
oh won't you play with me again
got all night
same old song
won't you come dance
with me, my love, after all
She was his girl; he was her boyfriend
She'd be his wife and make him 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 was all around
Not very much of his childhood was known
Kept his mother Mary worried
Always out on his own

I came to shed a little light on this darkening scene
Instead I fear I've spilled the blood of our children all around"
The blood of our children all around
The blood of our children's all around
So I'm told, so the story goes
The people he knew were
Less than golden hearted
Gamblers and Robbers
Drinkers and Jokers, all soul searchers
Like you and me
Like you and me
Rumors insisted 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 was 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's all around
The blood of our children all around
Father up above, why in all this anger do you fill
Me up with love, love, love
Love love love
Love love was all around
Father up above, why in all this hatred do you fill
Me up with love, fill me love love love
Love love love
all you need is love
you can't buy me love
Love love love
Love love
Crazy as I may
Make my way through this world, oh
It's for no one but me to say
What direction I should turn in now
'Cause I am the captain of this ship
Wanting eyes and kissing lips
The same as it was
And will remain until I'm done
And gone
Strange, but it seems
There's a mutiny brewing inside of me now
I don't want your pity
Just the promise that I'll be alright
'Cause I am the captain of this ship
Curious hands and fingertips
The same as it was
And will be until I'm gone
Oh, I know I'm a dreamer
Still think it's strange
I won't be long for here
Oh, I know that I feel, oh
Wait and go again
Again...
Oh, look, I'm buried
Like a cancer eating away inside of me
I don't want your pity
Only the promise that I'll be okay now
But I am the captain of this ship
Curious hands and fingertips
The same as it was before here
Here, back
After all
Why should I be hypnotized
By the promise of a long life?
Why should I hold hope
In tiny, tiny dribbles that glide by?
Why should I lean everything upon...
I won't be here long...
Oh, I know I'm a dreamer
Still seems a truth
I won't be long for here
Oh, it's so, but I think I lay this
On now your lips
I'm drowning
I am the Captain of...
Oh...
But, I'll be okay after all.

Run down my arms a bitter blue
Turn to red and the gashes grew

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 tempting the thoughts of a
Sweet tooth tortured by the weight loss
Program 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
it's gracious of you
to hold your arms
throw your charms around me
it's gracious of you
to lead me by the hand
I really love you
it's gracious of you
to be by my side, rolling wild
reeling thunder
it's gracious of you
come again, come again to me
and save me the need to say goodbye
and why would I ask of you, need to say goodbye
say it, say it, oh, I don't know how to say this,
please, here leave me warm, hollowed and open.
(yodeling.... ) one more.... (more yodeling)

it's gracious of you to hold me while
I don't want to say goodbye, yeah...

And laugh of times when we thought
All it would end, it was all over
Then again

And to leave you out, I'll die
Oh my friend
It will be you until the end with me
Always

I wish that I could climb inside your mind
and spend some time and hug and hold you

We reconsile our different tastes,
When I saw the devil swimming in the lord's swimming pool
So drink this wine,
And god forgive him,
Your fallen angel is doin' fine,
He's got you on the board,
Oh then god,
This teenager,
Oh if he had given rise to him,
What would we care,
If there were no Judas or there were no Devil,
Where would god and his little boy be now?
Nowhere I swear,
And now we say,
That seems extreme,
When all that we do is reconsile our differences here,
Yeah...
Share the time again
I spend with you
A friend is always good to have
But a lover's kiss is better than angels raining down at me
I dream of you at times when your by my side
Dream you're not just like you are
So troubled and doubling my pain
Just one more tear
You shed for me
I wish that I could climb inside your mind
And spend some time and hug and hold you
And mold you into what i'd like
But no i can't do this
Just a kiss to spend a while by you
And your familiar smile and voice
I lay awake
Then you lean back and smiling
On you
Most everything you do for me, I say
And the while let's make our way
And feel warm
In the middle of this storm with you
Like an angel
Oh, what the friends say is good is right
I say
When you were again
And you were my friend
Before the lie
This one
Say yes I do
And with you
Sometimes
But while i do my best
With all the rest i leave to you
Can't wait for the hour
And when two things become this
All this trouble from a kiss from you, i'll do it
And then you come up smiling
And I'm thrown
Into I get a little storm with you, I'll do it
Always
Lover, line up and yeah
The road to you is long and I've been on it for a while
And a need a warm embrace
I'll take a break
And say I want to leave you awake
Always
I feel tired...
Oh, my head lay back on the seating
Been so tired, throw away my surrounding
Like the sun and moon take for granted
Soon we move through the flood and we fade away
Lie about it,
Cry about it,
We'll be ok
Lean upon me,
I'll lean upon you,
We'll be okay
Oh, I lay myself at your feet laughing
Hope mine eye made of the soul choir
Lean upon me,
I'll lean upon you,
We'll be okay
Lie about it,
Cry about it,
Soon fade away
Lie about it,
Cry about it,
We'll be okay
Lean upon me,
I'll lean upon you,
We'll be okay

Dreamed I killed God and woke up
I dreamed I killed God and woke up
He was begging please,

Don't burn the pig
Throw it in the water again
See if it float or sink
Don't burn the pig
Crazy as I may
Make my way through this world
It's for no one but me to share
What direction I turn in
'Cause I am the captain of this ship
Eyes, eyelids, and kissing lips
The same as it was and should be when you will
You give
Roll me back again
You give
Roll me away
You give
Roll the homes back again
You give
The same respect for them that turn and change
And don't you see the strange way
That the girl dances away a day
Even ridiculed display
Won't stop her feet from moving
Because I am the captain of this ship
Eyes, eyelids, and kissing lips
Just the same as it was away (?)
Maybe it's strange
I live a lie
I'm going back again
Oh, turn back
The lights from yourself
And turn the spotlight down
Or turn it on yourself
Because you are the captain of this ship
Eyes, eyelids, and kissing lips
Just the same as for all
I reign and waiting to be
Why should I be hypnotized
By someone else's lie?
Why should I
Oh, take time and pride in
What someone else believes?
Oh, tell me go on
Won't you roll on then maybe you
You give
Roll the backside on the wind
You give
Roll me away
You give
More than ever seen before
You give
Say, It may be all I can
Same as it was
And made me believe my head, my whole
Oh my head lay back on the seating
Been so tired throw away my surrounding
Like the sun and moon take for granted
Soon we move through the flood and we fade away
Lie about it
Cry about it
We'll be ok
Lean upon me
I'll lean upon you
We'll be ok
Oh I lay myself at your feet laughing
Hope mine eye made of the soul choir
Lean upon me
I'll lean upon you
We'll be ok
Lie about it
Cry about it
Soon fade away
Lie about it
Cry about it
We'll be ok
Lean upon me
I'll lean upon you
We'll be ok
Try to swim, keep your head up
Kick your legs, never give up, boy
And if I could I'd turn it around
Let me out
I wanna get out now
You know the feeling when you're in too deep
And then you make it out the taste so sweet
Sweet
Sweet
I'm too high, wanna come down
And I'm too old to wanna be younger now
But if I could I'd turn it around
Let me out
I wanna get out now
You know the feeling when you're in too deep
And then you make it out, the taste so sweet
Sweet
Sweet
Cover me cover me cover me
til I'm gone
Cover me cover me cover me
til I'm gone
Cover me cover me cover me
til I'm gone
gone
Well if I could I'd turn it around

You know the feeling when you're in too deep
And then you make it out
