Going to sink my body down
Feel it tremble with the sound
Mother is speaking loudly now
Yah, it runs through my body, I am wild
Body breaks though the water, I'm a newborn child
Brains on fire
Put my ear down to the ground
Feel it tremble with the sound
Mother is speaking loudly now, she is saying
Lay your clothes down with your fear
Float upon my waters, dear
I will carry you from here
Up among the lights she is smiling
I am small, I am safe, all is silent
Take my breath, make me wet
Going to sink my body down
Feel it tremble with the sound
Mother is speaking loudly now, she is saying
Strip yourself of all your fears
Free your mind and make it clear
I will carry you from here
Never coming up, never felt like this
Just going to stay here in this state of bliss
Never felt so whole or so damn complete
Done all that I should do, met all I should meet
Just going to stay right here
Someone is calling from the shore
On this earth not a voice I love more
Come inside
Going to sink my body down
Feel it tremble with the sound
Mother is speaking loudly now, she is saying
Strip yourself of all your fears
Free your mind and make it clear
It's time to bust you free my friend
You've suffered long enough
Hellbent, crazy, fucking lazy
Wishing I was young
Oh, won't you take me from this sterile place
Travel me 'til I'm dead?
'Cause years ago I played this show
That's all I think of in my head
You're the wiser
You're the wiser one than me
You're the wiser
You're the wiser one than me
I'm at a home for shattered lives and I gather
Dust beyond my age
And I'm sitting years and trimming fears
Of life in the present day
You're the wiser
You're the wiser one than me
You're the wiser
You're the wiser one than me
When I was young and oh, so full of it
Well, people were talking, I could hardly know
(I was young and oh, so full of it)
Well, people were talking, I could hardly know
(I was young and oh, so full of it)
Well, people were talking, I could hardly know
When I was young and oh
It's time to bust your chains alright
We got too far ahead
The years I held so dear are over
And I'm living here instead
I'm the wiser
I'm the wiser one than me
I'm the wiser
I'm the wiser one than me
I'm the wiser
I'm the wiser
I'm the wiser
I'm the wiser
It?s quite a motion to step outside the cave
The crazy inner workings of a man
I guess you?re on top again
Thinking how I?ll take you there
My castle stands behind a man of stone
Guess you?re on top again
Listen to the things you?ve heard and try to hold them in
?Cause I?m coming back from miles of long
The crowd broke off and left the shape I'm in
So hot and pain ?cause feelings never change
A symbol?s but a curtain around a man
Guess you?re on top again
The doctors stay away, but my, the dogs are mighty thin
So I?m coming back from miles of long
The crowd broke off and left the shape I?m in
And I with doubts so strong
With minds that aren't quite gone
Oh, with doubts so strong
Oh, with doubts so strong
Oh, with doubts so strong
I?m quite infringed ?cause feelings never change
The girl, you're chasing frequent, I?m a man
Guess it?s you on top again
Thank you for tonight my darling, the rhythmic comfort?s in
So I?m coming back from miles of long
The crowd broke off and left the shape I?m in
And I with doubts so strong
With minds that aren't gone
Oh, with doubts so strong
Oh, with doubts so strong
Oh, with doubts so strong
Late at night, sometimes I hear the patriotic rumbling little war cry
Or is it just the sound?s a lot familiar turn the volume down it scares me
Oh, how it scares me
Yeah, yeah, yeah, scares me, oh, oh
It?s quite a motion to step outside the cave
The crazy inner workings of a man
I guess you?re on top again
Has heaven seen the last of us or can we start again
So I?m coming back from miles of long
The crowd broke off and left the shape I?m in
And I with doubts so strong
And I with doubts so strong
And I with doubts so strong
And I, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Hey man what's the scam don't you ever understand
Don't you, don't you, don't you understand
Thinking about, thinking about, thinking about nothing
Because nothings about all we have
Screaming round, screaming round, screaming
round the housescreaming round, Got to get my share before the good
times are all bad
Hey Jon what's going on? We haven't talked in so long
Nothings happening man I'm just passing around the bong
Hey Sam what's the plan I'm just chilling in the sand
Everybody's chilling I hope I make it through the night
Just another lonly night, all is silent all is quiet
I just wanted to make it right, all is silent all is quiet
I just can't keep playing pretend, all is silent all is quiet
Screaming in, screaming in, screaming in the bedroom, I'm screaming
from sexual fright
Hey you how do you do can I score a ride with you?
Not a chance baby not if what I heard was true
Hey Trish, who's the bitch you shouldn't talk to me like this
Don't worry about it baby I'll just fix it with a kiss
Climbing up the ladder climbing for the sun climbing up the
ladder, climbing for the sun
Thinking about, thinking about, thinking Tommy
Things look cold for young John Morgan
We were dying all around him
Wise, the wise, our young John Morgan sing
Will we feed us all away?
We?re all heroes
We got giant steps behind us
Just twelve years old, just trying to be a boy
There?s not much time, just time to say, goodbye then
Take me away, I don?t need to be here too
Will we feed us all away?
We?re all heroes
We got giant steps behind us
Do you see giant steps behind me?
Our falling days won?t end this way
Our falling days won?t end this way
(Something?s wrong but I can?t see it)
Our falling days won?t end this way
(Something?s wrong but I can?t see it)
Our falling days won?t end this way
(Something?s wrong but I can?t see it)
But that was a long time ago
Yeah, that was a long time ago
That was a long time ago
Where we'd be when young John Morgan?s south
Will the sky come falling down on us?
Wipe out time, have we forgotten you?
Will we feed us all away?
We're all heroes
We got giant steps behind us
My life is a stereo
How loud does it go
What songs do I know
What happened to my plans
What ever happened to the life I thought I'd have
My life is a stereo
Kind of cheaply made, though
How bad does it show
What ever did become of all my friends
What ever happened to the likes of all of them
My life is a stereo
Turn me on and let's go
Turn me up louder
I'll scream as loud and clear as I can scream
If you like what you're hearing, please hang on to me
I like being here
And I'm hooked up all wrong
Hang on to me
Though I'm one of a million
And my lights are like candles
I'm so afraid of new technology
I'm in the race and I don't wanna be
I'm so afraid of what's to come to me
I'm in the race
Life ends in a stereo
Pack me up and let's go
Put me anywhere
Please don't think of leaving me behind
Who's that creeping around my door?
Who's that crawling on my floor?
Who's that sneaking in my bed?
Seems like someone wants me dead
Oh, my Lord, it's the reaper
I'm talking about the soul stealer
In my time of dying, well, I thought I'd be a man
But God I'm shaking
My sweet life ain't long enough
To make me brave and strong enough for what I'm facing
Hey there, Grandpa, how you been?
You're living free of guilt and sin
Looking down upon our world
Watch it bleed as it twirls
Oh, my God, where am I going?
Oh, my God, the wind keeps blowing me
'Coz in my time of dying, well, I thought I'd be a man
But God I'm shaking
My sweet life ain't long enough
To make me brave and strong enough for what I'm facing
All I want is one more chance
To lie my baby down, God, I love her
All I want is one more chance
To buy my friends a round, my God, I love them
With the misty morning and the cool wind on my face
I drop myself down to the ground and tremble and I shake
Then my back begins to crack and wings, they take its place
Goodbye, my sweet, I love you, goodbye, my sweet, I love you
I take my one last breath and then I fly
Who's that creeping around my door?
Who's that crawling on my floor?
Who's that sneaking in my bed?
It's me baby, do not dread
Oh, my God, my head's reeling
Oh, my God, it's time to start again
In my time of dying, well, I thought I'd be a man
But God I'm shaking
My sweet life ain't long enough
To make me brave and strong enough for what I'm facing, oh, oh
All I want is one more chance
To lie my baby down, God, I love her
All I want is one more chance
All the things I?ve heard and seen in this today
Yeah, I keep them in my memory sort of filed away
I know they?ll be around to visit one more time
To run beside me softly in the chambers of my mind
Oh, I know that feeling
The one that means I?m dreaming
Memories kind of wheeling
But like I thought, it happens all the time, all the time
I had a dream of God?s machine the other night
And there were crowds of angels trying to help me fix my flight
To me it?s just another boring very sleepy time
But they just come right in and try to stir my mind
Oh, I like that feeling
I like you when you?re screaming
Now I start you bleeding
Doesn?t matter friends, it happens all the
Time to wake up, time to shake out, shake out all the madness going on
Time to wake up, time to shake out, shake out all the madness going on
I remember when the falled man would crush my fingers
The lady wouldn?t help me ?til I screamed
And I was just an ordinary lonely child
So tell me what this crazy nonsense really means
My fingers hurt, I?m screaming
I don't wanna known that feeling
Now I start my bleeding
Doesn?t matter kids, it happens all the
Time to wake up, time to shake out, shake out all the madness going on
Time to wake up, time to shake out, shake out all the madness going on
I?m, oh I?m, I?m scatterbrained today
But I know it?s in my memory
Time to wake up, time to shake out, shake out all the madness going on
Time to wake up, time to shake out, shake out all the madness going on
Time to wake up, time to shake out, shake out all the madness going on
(There?s a man inside my head, he maybe might just want you dead)
(There?s a man inside my head)
Time to wake up, time to shake out, shake out all the madness going on
(There?s a man inside my head, he maybe might just want you dead)
I'm alone and I'm tired
I'm afrid and I'm tired
I'm away trying not to see
What the day brings on out of
me I'll stay right here
Gotta silent radar watching you
I'm the same ya I'm alright
Still alone no ones been by
Ashamed trying not to be
In my mind I'll always (be) (need) you right here
Silent radar watching you (me)
I'm thinking it over (I'm sure I'll find)
At the best of times I'm the (better life to live) Lucky one
Getting closer and closer
silent radar sees everyone
Better kind of way of life to live
I haven't changed but I'm trying
I hate to see you lying there curled up in a ball
I hate to smash your pretty face against the fucking wall
But I'm a desperate man, girl, I'm down on my knees
I hate to see you crying, hate to see those tears
But you're the one who's sitting there just tossing out the years
Why you doing this? Why you want to go?
Won't you ever understand? You're my woman and I'm your man!
Every time I hear your name
Floodgates open, blood it rains
And I can see where I went wrong
But you can't leave while I'm not strong
(I can see you run and hide) Oh baby won't you ever let me
(I can see you run and hide) Oh baby won't you ever
Let me live my life
Cause I'm afraid I just don't love you
So pick yourself on up, girl, straighten yourself out
Pick up all those wasted years, you're so torn about
Put them back girl, back up on the shelf
You and me will be forever, I'm your hero and you're my treasure
Every time I hear your name
Floodgates open, blood it rains
And I can see where I went wrong
But you can't leave while I'm not strong
(I can see you run and hide) Oh baby won't you ever let me
(I can see you run and hide) Oh baby won't you ever
Let me live my life
Had my nineteenth lover yesterday
And I still can?t fade the pain
I thought I'd have the strength to look the other way
But the scent drew me insane
Left the mountain only yesterday
Still the mountain calls my name
If I find myself there on another day
Someone come, drag me away
I just can?t to seem to get ready
Just can?t to seem to keep my hands steady
Oh man, what does it take
?Cause I must to be free
I must to be free
I talked to Moses only yesterday
Said, "Man, how?d you part that sea?
Sleight of hand, the holy land and destiny
And then I set my people free"
He knew how to get the thing started
Just went out, got the sea parted
Hey there man, you got some left for me
'Cause I must to be free
I must to be free
I must to be free
I must to be
Adam took a bite and got the thing started
King stood up and man, he fought it
Jimi rocked hard and then he sought it
His notes still shake the sea
All these men worked soul and bone
Just to give that child a home
Things are clear and I think I finally see
It?s time to be free
I talked to one smart lady yesterday
Yeah, she means a lot to me
Honey, save your questions for another day
?Cause the answer?s plain to see
Just go out and get the thing started
Lead your life where the heart is
Just go out and be what you can be
Boy, it?s time to be free
It's time to be free
It's time to be free
Little Danah, she leans outside the diner
She sits and wonders, ?How did I get here??
Mr. Cadillac, he tells Danah where it?s at
When you?re with me kid you?ve got nothing to fear
Makes you wonder about Danah?s mother
Laying down the concrete law
Makes you wonder, pop
About that constant buzz you?ve got
I don?t need no Bible healing
I don?t need Mr. Leary?s whacked out feeling
I just need some understanding
I just need a happy home
Little Danah?s legs, they look just like a road map
She?s got to feed the monkeys crawling round her back
It helps to numb the pain when the rough boys play their games
I wonder if all the big stars started out like that
Makes you wonder about Danah?s mother
She?s yelling every time she speaks
Makes you wonder, pop
You?re always thinking with your cock
I don?t need no Bible healing
I don?t need Mr. Leary?s whacked out feeling
I just need some understanding
I just need a happy home
I can?t take it, I can?t take it, I can?t take it anymore
Every time I try to walk, I just end up on the floor
So put your arms around me, close them way up tight
I can?t breathe, no, I can?t breathe, I?m being strangled by the night
Mr. Fat Man says, ?You wanna make some extra cash
You know you?d look real cute dressed up like a nun?
Mr. Cadillac, he walks in on a blood bath
Fat Man says, hey I was only having fun
Makes you wonder mother, how you gonna treat your other
Will things turn out the same
Makes you wonder, pop
Just when are things they gonna stop
I don?t need no Bible healing
I don?t need Mr. Leary?s whacked out feeling
I just need some understanding
I just need a happy home
I just need a happy home
We'll see them fly in the midnight sky
And tear it inside out
Hear them crash with a burnin' flash
And rip your soul right out
Then I run for the rising sun
Mother Earth, please let me live
I was taught to walk tall and never crawl
But why die, it's not my sin
I can make you go down
(Na, na, na, na)
I can make you go down
(I don't think so)
I can make you go down
(Na, na, na, na)
I can make you go down, down, down
(I don't think so)
Well hear me cry to the burning sky
Oh, Lord what have I done?
No more running, no more time
My body has gone numb
I see her face in a safer place
And sweet smells fill the air
All I ask is one more touch
Dear God is that not fair?
I can make you go down
(Na, na, na, na)
I can make you go down
(I don't think so)
I can make you go down
(Na, na, na, na)
I can make you go down, down, down
(I don't think so)
Make you go down for the love of God
And all the land that he walks on
Don't you see, by his hand you will fall?
Keep on counting, keep the score
Don't want to be hanging around here no more
Oh, no, said to you, I don't think so
Now I rise up through the skies
And my body's still down there
Too many things that were left undone
Silent screaming in despair
If I had one last minute
Upon this world gone mad
I'd shout out, "Brothers and sisters
Please join hands and walk across this land"
I can make you go down
(Na, na, na, na)
I can make you go down
(I don't think so)
I can make you go down
(Na, na, na, na)
I can make you go down, down, down
(I don't think so)
I can make you go down
(I don't think so)
I can make you go down
(I don't think so)
I can make you go down
(I don't think so)
I can make you, make you
So hard when anger's never felt so good
Beauty's only all I want to see
The windows regardless open everything
Funny how we pass them everyday
You're the lady with her calves all ripped up into seams
Your passing by is all I get to see
Lately I fear it's been too much for me
Funny how I pass her everyday
It's just when nothing ever changes
(Drink the wine, it rearranges)
We'll be lying soon
(On Lusitana's moon)
We'll be lying soon
So high when courting comes by in the room
Slavery only not too far away
You and yours are always trying for everything
Funny how I pass you everyday
It's just when nothing ever changes
(Drink the wine, it rearranges)
We'll be lying soon
(On Lusitana's moon)
I find that nothing ever changes
(Just drink the wine to rearrange us)
We'll be crying soon
(In Lusitana's moon)
So hard when anger's never felt so good
And beauty's only all I want to see
The sour Lusitana's ruling everything
Her body always sadly wrappes away
It's just that nothing ever changes
(Drink the wine, it rearranges)
We'll be lying soon
(On Lusitana's moon)
I find that nothing ever changes
(Just drink the wine to rearrange us)
We'll be crying soon
(In Lusitana's moon)
Yeah
Yeah
Yeah
I?m feeling sort of playground now
My brush is cocked and colored
The sounds are running rampant
The love it can only be discovered in me
I wish they?d stop around sometimes
I think the bucks are cheap enough
My mother died ahead of me
From then and every standing up, take it from me
I?m not falling down
And I don?t know why
You'd talk me down
'Cause I?m a good laugher
Good evening boy, I?ll be your fairy
You may even try me on again
So happy to be alive today
Tomorrow starts to ride, take it from me
I?m not falling down
And I don?t know why
You'd talk me down
'Cause I really matter
Long while ago, when the hell was breaking
Stood a boy and girl quiet and wise
Stood amongst the city burning
A monster city turning
As if to say, you?re the cause of it all, all, all
I?m not falling down
And I don?t know why
You'd talk me down
'Cause I really matter
A bent and ugly traveling man
Who came in right ahead of me
To walk a month's early waiting
Yeah, wait 'til the summer I'm a chance for me to be
I?m not falling down
And I don?t know why
You'd talk me down
But I?m really flattered
I?m a good laugher
I?m a good laugher
Could you let me stay here today
Won't know I'm around
Won't make a sound
Just need a place to rest my brain
Where I'll feel sane
Okay
And I won't be in the way
If you're fine to let me stay
'Cause I feel good today
I like all the stuff you've got around
In fact, you can't hear a sound
It's great
Outside it looks so grey
That's okay
I don't mind grey
'Cause I feel good today
And if you want to kill the day
You can always hang with me
'Cause I feel good today
Think I'm funny
Think I'm strange
If you'd seen what I'd seen
You would be the same
Just let me lie here
Okay
And if you want to kill the day
You can always hang with me
In the air the tension lingers
Evident in pointing fingers
From the rad the steam it rises
In this tomb of no surprises
Never knowing what they mean
Not quite in tune with their schemes
Suspect me of an empty shell?
But I guess it's just as well
Want to become you
Sweet perfection, enchanted youth, I'll lose
The weight of all my worries, I'll be the truth, I'll seek
The source, so plant the seed and let it run its course
(Of course)
Paranoia's just like ants
And conversation makes them dance
Around our like hungry friends
So watch your step and just pretend
All that glitters is really gold
And we love all that we are sold
And if there's any pain inside
Paint on a smile, man, and let it slide
Want to become you
Sweet perfection, enchanted youth, I'll lose
The weight of all my worries, I'll be the truth, I'll seek
The source, so plant the seed and let it run its course
Let it run its course
And through the whispers
And across the haze
Just like a mouse
Searching wild in a maze
I see you
From across the room
Yeah, I see you
Early morning light it grows
Casting down on pure white snow
Quietly we walk back home
Like buffalo, our minds they roam
In my mind I'm running for the door
The fields are green and through blue skies I soar
Electric blue shock it brings me back
Hear my mind fry and crack and I can't take this anymore, yeah
I can no longer see the colors I pluck off of the tree
The words they dry up on my tongue
The song it says it can't be sung
Why are you doing this to me?
Yeah, why you laughing?
Yeah, why you hurting?
Oh, no, I found her there
In my mind I'm an eagle in the air
My grandfather he's the bear
Dance around the firelight
Pass the pipe all through the night
Grandfather, is that you there?
Take away my soaring feather
Tie me down with straps of leather
Stick my feet in the pool
Send the pain up my spine
Make me lose what's inside
Take my pride and watch me drool
Yeah, why you laughing?
Yeah, why you hurting?
Oh, no, I found her there
This time, yeah, you've gone too far
My mind is black and it's scarred
It's in the earth inside the bag
Bury me somewhere out in back
And write the time down on the card
Yeah, why you laughing?
Yeah, why you hurting?
Oh, no, I found her there, yeah
I found her there
I found her there
How come everybody keeps moving but me
How come nobody can see what I see
It?s not fair man, they can?t leave
Didn?t get a chance to feel my disease
Feel my disease, feel my disease
Feel my disease, feel my disease
All these people keep licking my bones
Steal my religion and empty my soul
I have danced with the burning seas
Lord, put me here to spread my disease
Spread my disease, spread my disease
Spread my disease, spread my disease
Spread my disease, spread my disease
Spread my disease
I am feeling, feeling the falling
I am feeling, feeling the falling
Stand in the corner, biding my time
Someday they will all be mine
I have become a vessel of God
Doubt my word and you will rot
You will rot, see you rot, you will rot
Hey there mama, don?t be sad
Your little boy has become a man
I have grown to see the light
Suck the daylight in the night
In the night, take away light
In the night, take away light
In the night, take away light
In the night
I am feeling, feeling the falling
I am feeling, feeling the falling
Falling into night
Truth be told man I?m real scared
I crossed the line ?cause I was dared
It?s too late, no turning back
Seen too much and now I?ve cracked
Seen too much and now I?ve cracked
I bet you feel it's magic
It's boredom setting in
Fingers turn brown, and
That's where I'll begin
I'm in this sad position
I know I'm in the wrong
When I'm all screwed around I can't count
The friends that I got
'Cause when I'm out with the fellas
Drinking up like a storm
When we're all out together
They all say, on your feet, dance some more
I can't hold a candle
To all that I pretend
Running around and the thought of my life
Going end over end
You probably feel it's righteous
But I've died one hundred times
'Cause when I'm out with the fellas
Drinking up like a storm
When we're all out together
They all say, on your feet, dance some more
When we're undercovers, we joke with one another
We can make the rules if we want to
When we're undercovers, we joke with one another
We can be the fools if we want to be in our hearts
'Cause when I'm out with the fellas
Drinking up like a storm
When we're all out together
They all say, on your feet, dance some more
When we're undercovers, we joke with one another
We can make the rules if we want to
When we're undercovers, we joke with one another
The crazy days are crazy days indeed
I'm wondering when I'll come down from this peak, yeah
Wondering about the girl who's in my dreams
Wondering if she'll ever let me be so I can sleep
When you're coming home
When you're coming home
When you're coming home
When you're coming home
The pretty faces they're all gone as soon as you smash the bong
The funny thing is I knew it all along
Holding on and singing we were steady but still drifting
An hour of blindness, that is timeless, bright lights seem to save
The crazy days are crazy days indeed, yeah
I'm using people to fill my every need
Wondering about the girl who's in my dreams
Wondering if I'll ever stop my screams and my crying
When are you coming home?
When are you coming home?
When you're coming home
When are you coming home?
The pretty faces they're all gone as soon as you smash the bong
The funny thing is I knew it all along
Holding on and singing we were steady but still drifting, yeah
Hour of blindness, that is timeless, bright lights seem to save
The crazy days are crazy days I'm freed
The dream girl has been washed out to sea
She blew her mind in the killer tide
Leaving me to tow the line
I think I'm coming home
I think I'm coming home
I [Incomprehensible] coming home
I know I'm coming home, yeah yeah
I built the wall and stripped away your rage
Showed me all the parts that hurt
I fixed it with the love that I burned with you
Even when I see your eyes I wonder where are you
Even when I'm inside I wonder where the hell are you
Showed me where the feelings lacked
I filled you up until you cracked, I knew
When the drops spill to the floor
Just like a dog you beg for more, I knew
Even when I see your eyes I wonder where are you
Even when I'm inside I wonder where the hell are you
Oh man aren't I heavy
Oh man aren't I deep
Oh man aren't I some real thing
Oh man aren't I sweet
(Aren't I sweet, baby?)
Little girl with your juice of gold
How many cupfuls have you let pass through
I think it's time I knew
Even when I see your eyes I wonder where are you
Her mind just snapped, said this is it
and she just bit right through her lip
things are flying, hit the floor
someone's laughing but it's not her
she just screams out madly "Let it end."
she climbs to the window in stocking feet
and the ants they dance upon the street
come on down, baby come down from there
now what are you thinking with that stare?
she cries "If you love me, help it end."
Calm down, baby let's think about before
when we felt like loving, we'd fall down on the floor
we can find our way there again
let's think about tomorrow
quit talking all about the end
her eyes are spinning like vertigo
and a spider crawls by, got somewhere to go
started thinking 'bout that Twilight Zone
where the man would scream and nobody'd know
remember those symphony tickets we bought?
we never made it out of that parking lot
come on down, baby come down from there
don't drown yourself in no river of fear
she just whispers softly, "Let it end."
Calm down, baby let's think about before
we loved each other so damn hard we were torn and sore
I swear that I can take you from this place
don't worry about the pain, girl
I'll wipe out every trace
Let me take you one more time,
let me know you
like I did once before
so please, now, take my shaking hand
I beg you
and I demand
she teeters like a see-saw on the edge
and the rocks, they drop but find no end
a bird flys by and winks at me
says, "How much you pay for this pair of wings?"
What's all this talk about planning for the crisis
I'm not thinking like that at all
Smiling faces are my Dionysus
I'm not thinking clear at all
Hold up, crazy one, I know what you're thinking
'Cause it's not looking great right now
So what's this talk about planning for the crisis
I'm not thinking like that at all
As much as I can say
It's hard for me to stay away
Ever and ever, as far as any eye can see
You're looking pretty fine to me
Better and better, as far as I can tell
We're on the road to brighter hell
Over and over, as far as I can tell
We're on the road to brighter hell
Fade out, turn me up, wrap your mind around me
For all and everyone to see
What would you say falling from a building
So far so free
So far so free
Who are you
As much as I can say
It's hard for me to stay away
Ever and ever, as far as any eye can see
You're looking pretty fine to me
Better and better, as far as I can tell
We're on the road to brighter hell
Over and over, as far as I can tell
Smelled you again today
The traffic breeze, it blows us slowly
Will I lay inside a hundred maidens?
Will I smell you again today?
Hey there, God
Hey there, God
Hey there, God
Hey there, God
It happened to me today
Strychnine water fought to drown me
The lonely early morning canteen strolling
The fire on my inside fought to drown me
Hey there, God
Hey there, God
Hey there, God
Hey there, God
And I'm a little problem through
And I'm a little spent too
You'll wanna scream too
Was I born afire or set on fire?
The question newly sought was found to me
Hey there, God
Hey there, God
Hey there, God
Hey there, God
And I'm a little problem through
And I'm a little spent too
You'll wanna scream too
Was I born afire?
Or was I set on fire?
It happened to me today
Strychnine water fought to drown me
Will I lay inside a hundred maidens?
Will I smell you again today?
Hey there, God
Hey there, God
Hey there, God
Hey there, God
And I'm a little problem through
And I'm a little spent too
Something's hanging down on the boneyard tree
Something's hanging down on the boneyard tree
Little girl, I love you so much
Why'd you go and give away your touch?
Some thing's hanging down on the boneyard tree
I just don't know how all this came to be
I don't know how I'll get these stains off me
You see I sees you walking down in God's yard
Saw steamy windows, backseat of your car
Some thing's hanging down on the boneyard tree
Oh, I feel I'm fading
Oh, the fire's blazing
Oh, you can look for she
Down on the boneyard tree
What's with all these voices calling on me
Soft little whispers wanna see me bleed
Can't you see I've suffered so much?
You lost life but I lost true love
Something's hanging down on the boneyard tree
Oh, I feel I'm fading
Oh, the fire's blazing
Oh, you can look for she
Down on the boneyard tree
Oh, I feel I'm fading
Oh, the fire's blazing
Oh, you can look for she
Down on the boneyard tree
Something's hanging down on the boneyard tree
Something's hanging down on the boneyard tree
Your face is locked in a look of distress
Still you look cute in your blood red dress
Pretty lady next to me, no more tears, yeah, no more crying
Not too late to start again, keep on moving, keep on trying
Too much pain for one life, too much pain for a loving wife
Starry eyes have turned to gray, make those clouds all move away
I don?t wanna see no more hands falling on me, well
I just think it?s time we leave, well
And now you finally cry, years go by, you finally cry, well
I just think it?s time we leave
Little man has come and gone, poor little boy can?t sing his song
Working down at the factory, then how come things
Ain?t how they oughta be?
Well, here comes Pop, he sure looks mad, much too mean to call my dad
Hey there mom, what did I do? Nothing sweetie, it's not you, well
And I don?t wanna hear my little girl shedding no tears, well
I just think it?s time we leave, well
I don?t wanna dry my little boy?s crying eyes, well
I just think it?s time we leave
I was twenty years old, what could I do
Twenty years old when we had you
And I don?t think you?re being fair
Still a little boy at heart
Running around in her backyard
Little girl is all grown up, she?s come to know a loving touch
I gotta find the same for Mom, keep that heartbeat moving along
Hey there dad, what?re you gonna do?
You kick in the door and try to break through
To get to her you gotta break through me
I ain?t the little kid I used to be, well
I refuse to see any more hands falling on me, well
I just think it?s time we leave, well
And now you finally cry, without your love I?ll surely die, well
Lying in bedrooms is easy
It's not like it's five years ago
Lately you're over my body
'Cause that's just the place that I want you to be
Look at the pictures you've gotten
They're like signals from oncoming cars
We're covered and caked from the last time
I know it sounds weird, we collect it in jars
'Cause that's just the place that I wannabe
Oh can't you see it's the life I don't need
Please don't make this thing up for me
(The way that I wannabe)
Oh can't you see it's the life I don't need
Please don't make this thing up for me
Driving in style with a smile on
I wish the light could turn red on me now
The day's been so damn hard already
So buckle me in on the highway of sin
'Cause that's just the way that I wannabe
Oh can't you see it's the life I don't need
Please don't make this thing up for me
(The way that I wannabe)
Oh can't you see it's the life I don't need
Please don't make this thing up for me
Cause that's just the way
Cause that's just the way
All uncovered
That's just the way
Driving in style with a smile on
I wish the light could turn red on me now
The day's been so damn hard already
So buckle me in on the highway of sin
'Cause that's just the way that I wannabe (wannabe)
Cause that's just the way
That's just the way
All uncovered
You always pay a price for not staying in line, and if
you choose to use your head and claim a free life. You
will be brutalized, memories ridiculed, and legal rights
ignored, socially excluded to the Outside. Surveillance
cameras, tapped mobile phones. These walls have ears,
they're listening. Someone you don't know knows your name
and everyone that you know. And I've trained myself to
look innocent. Someone you don't know knows your name and
everyone that you know. In an office somewhere someone
compiled your prints, profile, photographs. They're
building a case, you're certain they're mapping your
movements and you have become used to feeling paranoid.
Police the body, police the soul. Police the spirit then
take control. When you look up you look into surveillance
cameras, tapped mobile phones. These walls have ears
they're listening. Someone you don't know knows your name
and everyone that you know. And I've trained myself to
look innocent. Someone you don't know knows your name and
everyone that you know, and everyone that they know.
