You know he got the cure
You know he went astray
He used to stay awake
To drive the dreams he had away
He wanted to believe
In the hands of love
His head it felt heavy
As he cut across the land
A dog started crying
Like a broken hearted man
At the howling wind
At the howling wind
He went deeper into black
Deeper into white
Could see the stars shining
Like nails in the night
He felt the healing
Healing, healing
Healing hands of love
Like the stars shiny shiny
From above
Hand in the pocket
Finger on the steel
The pistol weighed heavy
His heart he could feel
Was beating, beating
Beating, beating oh my love
Oh my love, oh my love
Oh my love
My love
Saw the hands that build
Can also pull down
You know he got the cure
You know he went astray
He used to stay awake
To drive the dreams he had away
He wanted to believe
In the hands of love
His head it felt heavy
As he cut across the land
A dog started crying
Like a broken hearted man
At the howling wing
At the howling wind
He went deeper into black
Deeper into white
Could see the stars shining
Like nails in the night
He felt the healing
Healing, healing
Healing hands of love
Like the stars shiny shiny
From above
Hand in the pocket
Finger on the steel
The pistol weighed heavy
His heart he could feel
Was beating, beating
Beating, beating oh my love
Oh my love, oh my love
Oh my love
My love
Saw the hands that build
Can also pull down
Yesterday becomes tomorrow leaves you wanting more
So intricate becomes the bathroom floor
And even though you're in a ditch you dig a deeper hole
And I feel like I'm a shovel cause it's out of my control
Promised a change, didn't hear a word from you
Don't hold me back
The exit isn't somewhere in my heart
A promise of pain...we're back to the start
The reason that I still persist it's obvious I care
Been waiting by a door with no one there
It seems like you are locked inside my key don't fit no more
And you're walking on the land mines you laid down before
Promised a change I didn't hear a word from you
Don't hold me back
The exit isn't somewhere in my heart
Noise turns darker the moments pass
But the drums keep thundering in familiar way
Outside the legions multiply
By and by - you're still alive
Getting nowhere - can't find no way
'cos ego ego taking the fame
Discord dances discord earth
Harvest thanks didn't go quite right
Noise turns darker the moments pass
But the drums keep thundering in familiar way
Outside the legions multiply
By and by - i'm still alive
Living under artifical light
living in the past
too many promises every night
who's the first and who's the last?
your time has come
that's the destiny
the damage is done
how should it be
can't you see ?
See the pictures passing by
watch the burials never cry
See the pictures passing by
watch the burials never cry
Shadows grinding in my mind
time goes by, we're getting blind
you notice your steps are getting slower
never try to lose, to lose your power
See the pictures passing by
watch the burials never cry
See the pictures passing by
Can't find the way to stop the pain
Wracking my brain is working overtime
Why am I sleep inside your lap
you drain my blood and watch it overflow again
You're not my friend
You're a wicked enemy of who I am
Chorus:
Time for me to exit - I don't wanna be w/ you
I don't wanna spend my life w/ your emotional abuse
Time to make an exit - Gotta get away from you
I spent every fuckin day w/ you telling me what to do
No no no...
Itz been sweel, but now itz time for me to go
You using your scientific mind
You take a plunger to my head and drain my thoughts
The vast selection of your moods
To get close to you I need an armored all terrain
You're so insane
As deep as hell as high as heaven every day
(Chorus)
Watch me now I'm crawling to my escape
I don't care who's fallen apart
Itz too late
Call Monty Hall - Lets make a deal
Been on the bus
Now ever since you took the wheel, I cannot feel
This is where I'm getting off to stop and heal
(chorus)
I can't stand it,
I can't stand it any more
Every day and night
you seem to ask for more
I can't stand it,
I'm tired of your "saying just for saying"
And to be your favorite point.
But who wants some attention here? You or me?
All your points are not enough for me. So what know?
You just followed all my steps.
You try to be something what you're not.
And where am I now?
At the same place (that) I was when you started.
Try to find a way to the exit.
This place is hard to resist.
It can turn into hell.
Watching the entire night
Pictures of you I once took in my mind,
Was it alright?
Broke the rules by telling you
I liked you too much
You didn't wanna see me
Watching you at your best
As you thought you were perfectly
Answering my questioning
The perfect man
Tonight
I'm gonna make millions out of light
I'm gonna pretend I am alright
Eating the entire night
Raw fish
Trained 4 years
To kiss my lips as the main dish
Broke the rules by asking you
What I'd to do next
And I never thought you'd had
Such a small, small face
Though you always taught integrity
I find but disgrace
As you thought you were perfectly
Answering my questioning
The perfect man
Tonight
I'm gonna be questioning your rights
I'm gonna be strong enough to fight
(The wrong reasons why you wanna be in love with me)
Tonight
I'm gonna make millions out of light
Faced the crowd
In a blind mirror
Skull smashed headfirst
Against this wall of inner need
I knew this fall
Would send it all down towards the lights
And they will question once more
From their unscathed towers
I'll answer
Go on and force
Your one-bit truth until the end
I'll swallow every bullet
That rips through the hull
A sheltered life crawls forward, vomits
And folds around twin blades
I pull it back like last time
Yet it never cuts through all the way
I always have to take it hostage
Whenever I feel
I find no way to begin
It always bled from within
They fed the dreams so it could rip
I've grown content in this dream
I'll let those others take and give
Whenever I feel
There is no way to begin
I've grown content in this dream
I'll let those others take and give
And if I had
Leaned forward and let their downpours mask
Preburned fields growing supports for a future set in
past
Every reflection would lie and every breath would climb
blind
Toward their shallow corpse of a self-lit sky
And just its weight would be enough
To send it all off the edge towards that same undecided
mind
Towards that self-absorbed conscience that only screams
So predictably
"Someone burn me an exit"
Stormed their black-rise tower looming past
Drove them all out into a corner
Of the memory gridmap
Airlocked and silenced, I kept holding back
Finally burned them all alive
Before cutting off my own blood supply
I knew they had it bypassed to a bloodthirsty human
mass
That infested with a false promise of a chance
Seen it all before
Not like this
Not my trip
This is what I saw
Saw the lot of you
Doing things
Saying things And in front of me
You didn't seem to care
who was there
What was heard it affected me
Wash my hands of you
over this
This is through
this is what I mean
By now you've moved on
I assume
still alone With that attitude
Now you find yourself
By yourself,
on your own With a big ego
No one there to feed
what you need
Give you peace and or anything
I need something good
Something else
This is through
this is what I mean
This was not my intention
this is not what I wanted
But I rattle the cage
when I start feeling daunted
I can't explain why
this just had to be done
And I'm so fucking sorry I wasn't the one
This was not my intention
I really need you to know this
To be a shadow beside you
always there yet deeply missed
If I could take all your pain
and make all of it fall on my shoulders
In a heartbeat I'd do it
I'd never make you go through this
I welcome the turbulence
I need the unpleasentness
This comfort zone is choking me
Can't help this restlessness
Forgive me for doing this
This is not where I need to be
As for the hurt
I guess it's inevitable
And the black
The black will wash away
To turn it around
Is to come out the winner
Make it good again
I've been going in circles
so much for “live and learn”
Not even surprised anymore
When I find myself getting burned
Why do I tear it apart when
all the pieces are finally together?
We all should know by now that nothing is forever
I'm walking with no-one
I'm not walking at all
Just staying still for a while
as this guilt trip is taking it's toll
To disappear from the world
hide here in this nest of mine
If I give this some time will everything be fine?
I guess it's inevitable
The black will wash away
To turn it around
Is to come out the winner
Teacher for me now
Tell me something I dont know
Give me warning signs
It's a lie I already know
Yeah yeah yeah
Tell me stories of old
About the kings and queens so bold
Teach me lullabies
And the tales that's never told
Yeah yeah yeah
Yeah yeah yeah mmm
Turn the page
Is there someone else to get you?
Change the channel
There's someone left behind?
And watch your words
'Cause theres someone else behind you
Lets turn our backs
It's a crime it's a crime a crime a crime mmm
It's a half full glass
And the bells already told
It's a warning sign
Is my blood really this cold?
Yeah yeah yeah
Yeah yeah yeah mmm
Turn the page
Is there someone else to get you?
Change the channel
There's someone left behind?
And watch your words
'Cause theres someone else behind you
Lets turn our backs
It's a crime it's a crime a crime a crime mmm
Spin a web to pass the time
Perhaps a call to friends of mine
And if it's all the same to you
We'll skip the fables of the past
All the pieces left behind
Begin to tease the peace of mind
Is this how this is meant to be?
Broken bones belong to
You don't know me
You don't know me
You don't know me
You don't know me
You don't know me
You don't know me
You don't know me
You don't know me
You don't know me
You don't know me
You don't know me
You don't know me
This old disguise has broke your back
It's no surprise they all love that
You may suppose it brings to you
The chance to see through all the sides
A thousand laughs
A thousand smiles
A thousand tears
Your still midfiles
And wheres the sense in holding on?
For yesterdays already gone
I tried
Already gone
Yo, Yo Miami
Yo Cali-Fornia

Baby here I am
I'm the man on the scene
I can give you what you want
But you gotta' come home with me
I have got some good old lovin'
And I got some more in store
When I get through throwin' it on you
You gotta' come back for more
Boys and things that come by the dozen
That ain't nothin' but drugstore lovin'
Hey little thing let me light your candle
'Cause mama I'm sure hard to handle, now,
Gets around
Action speaks louder than words
And I'm a man of great experience
I know you've got another man
But I can love you better than him
Take my hand don't be afraid
I'm gonna prove every word I say
I'm advertising love for free
So you can place your ad with me
Boys and things that come by the dozen
That ain't nothin' but drugstore lovin'
Hey little thing let me light your candle
'Cause mama I'm sure hard to handle, now,
Gets around
Boys come along a dime by the dozen
That ain't nothing but ten cent lovin'
Hey little thing let me light your candle
'Cause mama I'm sure hard to handle, now,
Gets around
Baby here I am
I'm the man on the scene
I can give you what you want
But you gotta' come home with me
Boys and things that come by the dozen
That ain't nothin' but drugstore lovin'
Hey little thing let me light your candle
'Cause mama I'm sure hard to handle, now,
Gets around
We've got the afternoon together
We've got the evening and the night
So let the rain pour down, don't worry
Stay here with me and hold me tight
Never more scared to face the morning
But I'm not afraid to fall in love
Look in my eyes and show your feelings
We've got no more time for acting tough
I want to learn so much about you
I want to know the way you live
I want to take your heart in passion
But I want to give all I can give
Stare at the clock so time goes slower
Try not to even close your eyes
I'll lock the door and lie down with you
And we'll make some dreams and fantasize
(chorus)
Is this for real, are you feeling
Something too, it almost seems
Love is too good to be true
We'll make this last
(end chorus)
I'll go to sleep tonight just shaking
After I sing this to myself
I'll spend the week making my living
Making me put you on a shelf
But I'll think of you with every moment
And it will brighten up the days
And then the weekend I will see you
Mile after mile I'll make my way
Tu voz es la del trueno
rel
There you are, alone in your car
I don't think I, know who you are
But I see you smile, after a while
Of driving next to me
With your long blonde hair
I can't help but stare
I see you wave your hand in the air
And then you turn right, and off into the night
You go (oh no)
A few days go by, and I wonder why
I didn't have the nerve, to give you the eye
So you would pull over, and I'd ask you over
To my place (yeah, yeah)
A few weeks go by, and I'm feelin groovy
I ask my friend, to go see a movie
And out of the blue, I was thinking of you
And oh no look in the front row
It was you
(chorus)
My blonde beauty dream lover
What these eyes of mine discover
Will there ever be another
Girl like you
You're my blonde beauty dream lover
(end chorus)
After the show, I told my friend Joe
To wait by the car, cause I had to go
And talk to you, before you would do
What you did before
Oh I see your car, it's not very far
I'll just walk right over and ask how you are
But once again, the evening ends
With you driving away
I've got so much to do
And so little time
My life's a million miles an hour
I feel like I'm losing my mind
And I'm 60 miles from you
But I'm on my way
And you're the only one that
Makes my worries go away
(CHORUS)
Oh how it makes me crazy
When you're not with me baby
And there is nothing I can do
I wanna be with you
(END CHORUS)
Sometimes I sit right down and
I just think about you
I think of how nice it would be
Just to be with you
Every day and every night
To know that everything's alright
And now I'm 30 miles away from making
All my wrongs feel right
(CHORUS)
(SOLO)
(CHORUS)
One more mile I've got to drive and
I can see those city lights
And I'm taking the next exit
And we'll own this town tonight
But the time will fly
And I'll say goodbye and
I'll be back to missing you
Another day, another dime
For every minute on the line
I've got to pay just to talk to you
Last night I closed my eyes
Just one more day gone by
I dreamed I saw your face
In some familiar place
(BRIDGE)
And you didn't need
Anyone but me
And it was a dream
But it felt real to me
(CHORUS)
And I could hold you
Like I used to
And I could touch you
Like I'm supposed to
And love was more than just
Another game for you to play
And I could tell you
The things I want to
And you were with me
Because you really were in love
But then I woke up again today
Without you
(END CHORUS)
The days go by so slow
And you're over me I know
So I'll close my eyes to see
How good it used to be
(BRIDGE)
When you didn't need
Anyone but me
And everything was more
Than just a dream
(CHORUS)
(SOLO)
I wanna see, something no one else can
And I want to be, more than just your main man
And I want to see, more than what the eye can
And I want to see, who you are within
(CHORUS)
I wanna get, I wanna get
Under your skin
I wanna know, I wanna know
You within
I wanna know, I wanna know
I wanna know your ways
I wanna hear, more than what you say
And if I find I don't like what I've found
I'm still gonna search around
Under your skin
(END CHORUS)
I wanna find, something you have hidden
And I wann search, places so forbidden
And I wanna know, how you feel inside
And I wanna try, something never tried
(CHORUS)
(SOLO)
I'm walking alone, late at night
And I notice, a vision of a human,
Walking near, and so I slowly
Make room for her, on the sidewalk
But she slows down and she says
She says hello
And so I.
Stop what I'm thinking
And at that time I start talking
To a girl that I met late at night
On the sidewalk
And I find myself dreaming a dream
Of a boy, and a girl who don't know
Much at all
As time passes I'm a man
She's a woman
And the only thing left for us now
Is the rest of our lives
And now and then, if her and I
Aren't too busy, we'll walk hand and hand
On the sidewalk
(bridge)
On the sidewalk
On the sidewalk
(end bridge)
Then we'll stop walking
Before I know it I am kissing
A girl that I met late at night, long ago
On the sidewalk
And reality becomes of a dream
Of a boy, now a man
And a girl, now a woman
Oh my God it's so hard
To walk down the block today
Can't believe what you're saying
To me so I turn away
Maybe this is why people
Are living in solitude
Can't seem to muster the strength
To deal with you
You say that you're leaving
So leave then
Oh my God it's so hard
To face another day
Don't let the world get you down
With the games they play
I know you been searching for a boy
To bail you out of trouble
But baby I ain't the light
At the end of your tunnel
You say that the solitude's
Too much for you
I'm just trying to keep myself up
You're just trying to hold me down
I don't know what to say
I don't know what to do
All I know is that I think
You found someone new
Just when I thought that
Destiny called out our name
Well I've noticed that you
Haven't been acting the same
(BRIDGE)
And every time that I've got
Something to say
You just ignore me, and you
Walk away
But I think you're hiding things
That you want to say
(END BRIDGE)
(CHORUS)
But before you go
There's something
You should know
I'm in love with you
And there's nothing
I can do, but
Play the fool
(END CHORUS)
I can see through those eyes
I can see through that smile
When you say your alright
Girl I know it's a lie
And I don't know when you
Plan on letting me know
What it is that you're feeling
But you just won't show
(2ND BRIDGE)
It's hurting me more what
You're putting me through
And I'm too confused to know
What I should do
My heart is breaking
What's going on with you
(END BRIDGE)
(CHORUS)
(REFRAIN)
(SOLO)
(BRIDGE)
Everybody say yo - (yo) Say yo - (yo)
Say yo ho ho - (yo ho ho) Say yo ho ho - (yo ho ho)
Yes I know got's the funk in your ear
Break it on down shake your derriere
One plus one we're gonna kick it to you right
You me to we're gonna blwo it outta sight
So come on flow it's time to break it to you clear
Yes I know the beat's pumpin' in your ear
So get on up and get down to the sound
I got to show you one more time for your mind
*So can I get a yo - (yo) Are we gonna flow - (flow)
Just wave your hands from side to side
Cause it's time to slip and slide
(Repeat)
**We got that sound that'll make you jump
Can you feel the beating drum
Get up and party - par-r-ty
We got that vibe that'll make it right
One more time to put it in flight
Get up and party - par-r-ty
Coming up strong I got to let you know
How the beat come to twist and shake let up and go
We got the flavour running wild from state to state

To shake your body up and down and around
So get up and flow Joe I just can't wait

*Repeat

Just clap your hands and stomp your feet
And listen to the boogie coming from the street
Say yo - (yo) Everybody say yo - (yo)
Just wave your hands from side to side
Cause it's time to slip and slide
I went out tonight and closed down the bar
Drank seventeen beers and smoked ten cigars
I left my car downtown and I walked home
I got home at three or maybe three-thirty
My hair was a mess and my jeans were all dirty
But there your sweet face was waiting up on me
Now come on honey why you being so mean
And these kitchen lights look like my Chevy's high beams
I can't participate or concentrate on anything you're trying to do
So please quit your screaming it's hurting my head
I'm taking a leak and then I'm going to bed
I'll see you in the morning and by the way I love you
(Chorus)
And she said
You can love me, you can love me
You can say you tried but honey you're outside tonight
Cause that's where your bags and clothes will be
You're showing no respect for me
And I can't take it anymore so if I see you in the morning
You can tell me bout' your new dirt floor
So I'm pounding on the windows, I'm pounding on the doors
I heard that you've been
Saying things about me
You really shouldn't say
I should have known
Coming from you
So how come you're so
Nice in front of me
But when you walk away
You keep on doing what you do
(bridge)
Sooner or later all the
People you call friends
Will know all the lies and smiles
You bring with you
Everywhere you go
(chorus)
I can see the rain
But I don't feel the pain
This isn't anything I've lost
And I can feel the stab
But I don't see the scar
And I'm not thinking bout'
The cost, of this lost cause
You know I'll never know
The reason why
I'll never understand
This situation that we're in
I don't think that you realize
That I could put you
Where you stand
But that is not the way I am
(bridge 2)
I heard this little thing
Called honesty goes
A long, long way
You're climbing a ladder
Down to hell and you are
On your way
Heute nacht ist gro
This is for all the lonely people
Thinking that life has passed them by
Don't give up until you drink from the silver cup
And ride that highway in the sky
This is for all the single people
Thinking that love has left them dry
Don't give up until you drink from the silver cup
You never know until you try
Well, I'm on my way
Yes, I'm back to stay
Well, I'm on my way back home (Hit it)
This is for all the lonely people
Thinking that life has passed them by
Don't give up until you drink from the silver cup
And never take you down or never give you up
You never know until you try
Well it's been two years since
You broke it off with me
You were the one
Who needed to be free
Now here you knock, knock
Knocking on my door
Asking me to give you some more
But if I remember right
Just the other night
You and that other guy
Got in a fight
Well isn't it strange
How words can rearrange
Now you love me again
(BRIDGE)
Well I'm not the kind of guy
That will sit here and buy
Sad sob stories and little love lies
But hold on baby please don't cry
You know that I can't deny
(CHORUS)
That you, you, yeah you you
You're the one who
Drives me wild
(REPEAT)
Well I love the way you talk
I love the way you kiss
I love it when I've got
You alone like this
And It's kinda hard
But I'm on my guard
I've gotta take things slow
Cause you broke my heart
And I fell apart
And I needed a brand new start
And your sweet, sweet smile
Gonna take awhile
To make me jump back in
(REPEAT BRIDGE)
No I'm not saying good-bye
You know that I can't deny-that
[Wild Child]
My new years resolution: persist to end all wack MC confusion
To break MC's in half, there rhymes be like illusion
My conclusion, Lootpack's the group that cause Likwit Fusion
Brothers mic check 1 but can't get with 2's and
I take levels of the treble, embrace the bass
And grab a hold of the steel and come face to face
Silly mortals, coming through portals yabbin' at the lip
Even if their ass was Asian, they still couldn't flip
Some old lyrical, my spiritual rhymes be physical
Kickin' metaphorical, my style's historical
It's better for a cool brother to say he saw me in an article
I hear wack rumors, but yo, it's hard to cool Wild Child down
I don't clown, I just come forth kicking that Lootpack sound
I give props with my Likwit Crew MC's I rock with
I unlock styles like locksmith
Chorus:
Never am I weededed
I don't have to smoke...
Yeah, weededed
Every time you say a freestyle, you must be weededed
I never needed it
I don't have to smoke a blunt to get pepped up
[Wild Child]
First off, Lootpack set it off to wreck ya band
The only smoke you ever see Wild Child get be second hand
I've ignored non-freestylin' MC's, they get me bored
My exhibit shows I'm the rhythmic dyslexic lord
Wild Child, known to most people as Cracker Jack
Your style got no flav like licorice that be black
I'm offending when I start bending men
Coming forth with 100% adrenaline
It's not my fault when I come with hip hop from my heart
I get pissed when wack MC's step up and test my art
Props to CDP Crew's, East/West respect
My style or I'mma get your tape and push eject, cuz we
Chorus:
Weededed
Yo an MC who gets weededed
Every time you say a freestyle, you must be weededed
I never needed it
I don't have to smoke a blunt to get pepped up
Ask yourself when you weededed
Are you an MC who gets weededed?
Only a true MC, unless your ass is weededed
I never needed it
[Madlib]
Hello Hey yo, hey yo, hey yo Mr. Herb
Yes that's my name son, what's the word?
Come through to my studio so you can enhance my verb
All right Chill with me, lounge with me, make rhymes tight
Now you've been rapping for a week?
Yes yes, I'm overnight Uh huh
This is a mind state most wack MC's be in
Thinking they can smoke a blunt once and become an MC
The way I see things you'll see things clearly
Making quotes like Lootpack rocks yearly
Mr. Herb, Yes , I need your opinion my mind's a blur
Hey yo, smoke with me and I'll make your rhyme's slur
How's that? I'll call my homeboy, his nickname's Sherm
He'll fill you in, before you know your memory's short term
And you'll be like , I can crunch any MC's
And I have the illest case of munchies so please keep, right
Doing what you're doin, enhancin' my vocalision
The only time I see you is with infrared vision
Bacause I'm...
Chorus:
Weededed
Are you an MC who gets weededed?
Every time you say a freestyle, you must be weededed
I never needed it
I don't have to smoke a blunt to get pepped up
Ask yourself one time when you weededed
All you wack MC's who get weededed
Every time you say a freestyle, you be weededed
I never needed it
I don't have to smoke a blunt to get pepped up
You got a fast car
I want a ticket to anywhere
Maybe we make a deal
Maybe together we can get somewhere
Anyplace is better
Starting from zero got nothing to lose
Maybe we'll make something
But me myself I got nothing to prove
You got a fast car
And I got a plan to get us out of here
I been working at the convenience store
Managed to save just a little bit of money
We won't have to drive too far
Just 'cross the border and into the city
You and I can both get jobs
And finally see what it means to be living
You see my old man's got a problem
He live with the bottle that's the way it is
He says his body's too old for working
I say his body's too young to look like his
My mama went off and left him
She wanted more from life than he could give
I said somebody's got to take care of him
So I quit school and that's what I did
You got a fast car
But is it fast enough so we can fly away
We gotta make a decision
We leave tonight or live and die this way
I remember we were driving driving in your car
The speed so fast I felt like I was drunk
City lights lay out before us
And your arm felt nice wrapped 'round my shoulder
And I had a feeling that I belonged
And I had a feeling I could be someone, be someone, be someone
You got a fast car
And we go cruising to entertain ourselves
You still ain't got a job
And I work in a market as a checkout girl
I know things will get better
You'll find work and I'll get promoted
We'll move out of the shelter
Buy a bigger house and live in the suburbs
I remember we were driving driving in your car
The speed so fast I felt like I was drunk
City lights lay out before us
And your arm felt nice wrapped 'round my shoulder
And I had a feeling that I belonged
And I had a feeling I could be someone, be someone, be someone
You got a fast car
And I got a job that pays all our bills
You stay out drinking late at the bar
See more of your friends than you do of your kids
I'd always hoped for better
Thought maybe together you and me would find it
I got no plans I ain't going nowhere
So take your fast car and keep on driving
I remember we were driving driving in your car
The speed so fast I felt like I was drunk
City lights lay out before us
And your arm felt nice wrapped 'round my shoulder
And I had a feeling that I belonged
And I had a feeling I could be someone, be someone, be someone
You got a fast car
But is it fast enough so you can fly away
You gotta make a decision
You leave tonight or live and die this way
Looking out your window
Wishing you were somewhere else right now
Looking for the big show
Promise that your gonna make them "wow"
That's right, it's a Friday night
And we had a fight, so you missed your flight
Did you go to bed early?
You said you wouldn't miss my call
I've got the doctor worried
I promised not to piss him off
My back, it's a heart attack
And I'm kickin' back so I can't react
(CHORUS)
And then she says "oh, oh"
I think I'm gonna tell her that I've got to go
"oh, oh"
But I'm hanging on the line until she knows
We're both riding shotgun
On a sunny afternoon
We didn't get a lot done
Cause you think we're making up to soon
For this, as we reminisce
And I steal a kiss, for the time we missed
(CHORUS)
And then she says "oh, oh"
I think i'm gonna tell her that I've got to go
"oh, oh"
But I'm hanging on the line until she knows
(SOLO)
(CHORUS)
And then she says "oh, oh"
I think I'm gonna tell her that I've got to go
"oh, oh"
But I'm hanging on the line until she knows
"oh, oh"
I think I'm gonna tell her that I've got to go
"oh, oh"
I Am a Rock
A winter's day
In a deep and dark December;
I am alone,
Gazing from my window to the streets below
On a freshly fallen silent shroud of snow.
I am a rock,
I am an island.
I've built walls,
A fortress deep and mighty,
That none may penetrate.
I have no need of friendship; friendship causes pain.
It's laughter and it's loving I disdain.
I am a rock,
I am an island.
Don't talk of love,
But I've heard the words before;
It's sleeping in my memory.
I won't disturb the slumber of feelings that have died.
If I never loved I never would have cried.
I am a rock,
I am an island.
I have my books
And my poetry to protect me;
I am shielded in my armor,
Hiding in my room, safe within my womb.
I touch no one and no one touches me.
I am a rock,
I am an island.
And a rock feels no pain;
And an island never cries.
I saw you standing tall
So brave above it all
But I did not hear one
Word you said
Then someone pulled me down
And my feet fell underground
And guilt was all that
I could feel
(chorus)
And the problems I face everyday
Were just looked upon and thrown away
And I hope and pray, that they find a way
To make this go away
(end chorus)
You're so young and full of life
And through the darkness you see light
And you're so much stronger
Than I know I'll ever be
Your pain that no one sees
From your invisible disease
Still you shine bright as any
Star I've ever seen
(chorus)
(bridge)
I believe that when you smile
You heal the world for just a while
The neon's burning both ends of another night
Everybody's living way to loud
Tryin' hard to act like everything's alright
Anything to keep from coming down
Chorus
Fool, you're fooling yourself
Don't you know that closing time will tell
If you think think you're fooling anybody else
Fool, you're fooling yourself
Telling anyone who'll listen that it won't be long
Any day now she'll come back to you
And you'll forgive her everything that she's done wrong
You figure it's the least that you can do
Chorus
Fool, you're fooling yourself
Don't you know that closing time will tell
If you think think you're fooling anybody else
Fool, you're fooling yourself
There ain't no problem you can't solve with one more beer
But there's nothing you can do about last call
You don't to go home but you can't stay here
It's too bad you ain't got no place to fall
Chorus 2X
Fool, you're fooling yourself
Don't you know that closing time will tell
If you think think you're fooling anybody else
Fool, you're fooling yourself
Fool, you're fooling yourself
Two days pass by
All the while with the wind and the rain
Another day moves along
I'll wait one more just the same
I had a tryst with a woman
Who rides bareback and steers my mane
She carries with her things I need
Holy is her name
Holy where can you be
If I pray will I be able to see
Holy come set me free
The harder you ride the softer your fall will be
Have you seen the girl
that holds the world inside her heart
Running on stones layed in her mind
Moving from stop to start
I had a dream
that she was standing in a corner bedroom
Staring out the window with her face against the glass
Warm as summer's sun
Pure as the driven snow
Five A.M. the sun is shining
I could barely sleep
I look up and to my surprise
stands Holy at my feet
Her dress torn Her skin was dirty
I could hardly believe
When she told me how some man had stolen
what rightfully belonged to me
I love the way they look, I love the way they feel
Come on babe, I'm not made out of steel
Over the phone, I could stay real cool
But, face to face, I lose control
I get near you baby, I'm just a fool
Black velvet pants, I'm in it just for you
I love the way they look, the way they feel...yeah!
Now, your ?????? baby do a trick for me
I know what I like, I'm just to proud to see
You walk on by, get beat up jeans
Cause in my arms, it's a hundred and three
You drive me crazy, you make me wanna scream
Black velvet pants, cause it's the scene
I love the way they look, the way they feel...yeah!
Your black velvet pants are all I need
They make a life worth living, easy to lead
Black velvet pants, are ?????? for sure
In your hand pocket ?????? more...yeah!
I love the way they look, I love the way they feel
Come on babe, I'm not made out of steel
Over the phone, I could stay real cool
But, face to face, I lose control
I get near you baby, I'm just a fool
Black velvet pants, I'm in it just for you
I love the way they look, the way they feel...yeah!
I love the way they look
I love the way they feel
I love the way they look
I love the way they feel
I love the way they look
I love the way they feel
I love the way they look
I love the way they feel
I love the way they look
I love the way they feel
I love the way they look {woo}
I love the way they feel
I love the way they look {come on babe}
I love the way they feel
I love the way they look {yeah yeah}
I love the way they feel
Please excuse my attitude
While I shove you through the door
Broken bones and mirror seams
Reflecting all that's wrong
So here's to you and what you are
And what you have become
Got as good as it'll get
I'll show you to the door
Hold this, exit
Walk on, exit
Stand by, exit
Exit, exit
Don't fucking tell me what to do
I'll crush you in my hands
Left behind because you're weak
Hate you more and more
If you don't like my attitude
Go on home, boy
Lay your head down close your eyes
Cry and cry and cry
Don't fucking tell me what to do
I'll crush you in my hands
Left behind because you're weak
Hate you more and more
Hold this, exit
Walk on, exit
Stand by, exit
Exit, exit
Please excuse my beautiful
Ugly pompous grin
I'm laughing at what's left behind
And what I've done to them
So here's to you and what you are
And what you have become
Got as good as it'll get
Day after day is there a way out
Can't you see that they are using you
Day after day is there a way out
Oh, Can't you see that they are holding you back
Don't let them break you
Never let them bring you down
'Cause you are so much more
You are a storm
Set yourself free
And let them know
That you so are much more
Is this why we where brought here
Should we live our lifes like this
Forgetting all about things that really matter
Living your life like this
Little thing little thing
What are you goning to do
i'm drawn into your big black pool
it comes in waves
it comes in waves
the waves could pull me in
im blocked inside your ghost again
and here's the next thing
here's the next thing
in a car
in a car
its faster than you think
in a life that covers everything
bathed in white
bathed in red
and then the red turns into back
moving in for the attack
and here's the next thing
here's the next thing
here's the next thing
the next thing
it's the one that calls me back again
everytime
everytime it comes and leavs a trace
and the mark is one you can't erase
it always stays
until it leaves me bare and underneath this sea of air
here's the next thing
the next thing
it's the next thing
the next thing
it's the next thing
the next thing
Yesterday becomes tomorrow leaves you wanting more
So intricate becomes the bathroom floor
And even though you're in a ditch you dig a deeper hole
And I feel like I'm a shovel cause it's out of my control
Promised a change, I didn't hear a word from you
Don't hold me back
The exit isn't somewhere in my heart
A promise of pain...we're back to the start
The reason that I still persist it's obvious I care
Been waiting by a door with no one there
It seems like you are locked inside my key don't fit no more
And you're walking on the land mines you laid down before
Promised a change I didn't hear a word from you
Don't hold me back
The exit isn't somewhere in my heart
A promise of pain
I go down the streets
Like a god-damned ghost would do
I am a shadow of a man
Perhaps nothing else but you
My life came to an end
Got over it without a cry
A kid asked me if I am a living dead
And I was not able to deny
Is there an exit?
Lead me to the edge of dawn
Is there an exit?
I want to leave without a frown
Is there an exit?
All I loved is far and gone
Is there an exit?
I want to leave without a frown
I forgot the lady’s name
They are looking all the same
My cigarettes got wet
On my dusty road of shame
I hate life without a reason
I give up without a try
And if I would tell you I care
It would be just a lie
Is there an exit?
Lead me to the edge of dawn
Is there an exit?
I want to leave without a frown
Is there an exit?
All I loved is far and gone
Is there an exit?
I want to leave without a frown
Like they say
Every dog has its day
Maybe mine will come on my last day
Braintax:
Im all up in your brain like[drugs]
Robbie Burns-style chilling in these winter woods
Kinda humanist, all I really want is good
I feel hate sometimes but I suppress them thoughts
Now some people don't and their face contorts
And other folks wont, it's their main support
On the pavement screwing at the slightest nudge
Petty grudge, harsh words, so quick to judge
Everybody here whispers on the bus
Paranoid eyes look away
If you cause a fuss still get away
No-ones up for looking out for whos next door
Want a quiet life rather never see the poor
Spare change? Not likely we can just afford a glance
By the cashpoint tramps with the drunken dance
And wed like to help, but Im trying to get rich
And Im going for self and yeah lifes a bitch
Don't you know it - we feel ashamed but wont show it
Is the difference I take my chance and you blow it ?
I do believe in the power of choice
But through the outside pressure can you keep your voice ?
Im only here cos Im tryin to get out
Im only certain that Im living in doubt
Move yourself, wake up like know yourself
Stay you then grow your wealth
I know the negative shit don't help come on move yourself
Living with the aftershock of a million woes
Now whos quick to mock like their heart just froze
And waves splash the rocks like the land erodes
Like the liver rots slow when the brandy flows
Or egos melt when you're all alone
And your friends are props that nowadays don't phone
Debt strips men down, takes away your house,
Disregards your class and anulls your credit rating
We sit debating whos playa-hating
And think lifes hard cos the heatings broke
So the colds penetrating while Im tapping on the Playstation
Its all relative
We stay neutral and never give
That Sky Digital shit is like a sedative
I watch the news and stay thankful for how I live
So why the hell can't I help this man
With the nerve to approach me with an empty hand
Put some money in them little envelopes for charity
It could be me in 5 years clinging on to sanity
The only truths that there is no truth
So don't judge me and I wont judge you
Im only here cos Im tryin to get out
Im only certain that Im living in doubt
Weak minds can't advance
But I'll jump for the money given half the chance
Cos no matter how good you get, you get dragged down
Big competition and I wanna opt-out
Wanna be where I m rich if my pockets in drought
Not running through life with the silent movie shout
And give to the needy cos society is wicked
But Im still Braintax saving for a plane ticket
I have to make a point, don't like it ? stick it
We all live selfish lives, come on admit it
And our morals catch twists talking plastic chat we live swish
Fat cats trying to feast on fish..
Im only here cos Im tryin to get out
Waiting for your [Incomprehensible]
Waiting for your [Incomprehensible]
Waiting for your [Incomprehensible]
Waiting for your [Incomprehensible]
I'm spiraling down, I've been inside too long
I gotta get outside, breathe again
Deliver me because the walls are closing in
I gotta get out, so I can see again
What is done cannot be undone
What is done cannot be undone
Exit this phase, this phase
I'm going insane living with this weakness
A storm is ahead, I need the rain upon my face
I like the disturbance, let's bring it all crashing down
At least I feel something
What is done cannot be undone
What is done cannot be undone
Verse 1:
Could it be
That I've just been struck by your electricity
Chemistry
I can feel her voltage radiate through me
Hey, no girl is better
Giving me a heartattack
I'm loving your swagger
When you're backing it up on me like that
You know that it's often
Just to look at what reacts
There's no turning back
I know have to leave with you, you, you
Chorus
You're overloading my senses
My system's defenses
My heart's in a stress when I'm next to you
There is no way I can prevent this
Your body's relentless
So let's make a move
Chorus:
Girl we can slip right out the exit exit exit
We can slip right out the exit exit exit
Tonight I'm gonna treat you, leave you breathless
But first we gotta exit exit exit
Verse 2:
Gotta go
There's an urgency this emergency can't hold
From the floor to the door
Let's knock it out like T.K.O
Hey no girl is better
Giving me a heartattack
I'm loving your swagger
When you're backing it up on me like that
You know that it's often
Just to look at what reacts
There is no turning back
I know have to leave with you, you, you
Chorus:
You're overloading my senses
My system's defenses
My heart's in a stress when I'm next to you

Bridge:
All night
Been thinkin' what I'm gonna do
Strobelight
Is busy setting up the mood
As soon as we can get inside
If you jump into my ride
The night isn't close to over
Chorus:
You're overloading my senses
My system's defenses
My heart's in a stress when I'm next to you
There's no way I can prevent this
Your body's relentless
So let's make a move
Girl we can slip right out the exit exit exit
Slip right out the exit exit exit
Tonight I'm gonna treat you, leave you breathless
