The scent grows richer
He knows he must be near
He finds a long passageway
Lit by chandelier
Each step he takes
The perfumes change
From familiar fragrance
To flavors strange
A magnificent chamber
Meets his eye
Inside, a long rose water pool
Is shrouded by fine mist
Stepping in the moist silence
With a warm breeze he's gently kissed
Thinking he is quite alone
He enters the room, as if it were his own
But ripples on the sweet pink water
Reveal some company unthought of
Rael stands astonished
Doubting his sight
Struck by beauty
Gripped in fright
Three vermilion snakes
Of female face
The smallest motion
Filled with grace
Muted melodies
Fill the echoing hall
But there is no sign of warning
In the siren's call
"Rael welcome
We are the Lamia of the pool
We have been waiting
For our waters to bring you cool"
Putting fear beside him
He trusts in beauty blind
He slips into the nectar
Leaving his shredded clothes behind
With their tongues
They test, taste and judge all that is mine
They move in a series of caresses
That glide up and down my spine
As they nibble the fruit of my flesh
I feel no pain
Only a magic
That a name would stain
With the first drop
Of my blood in their veins
Their faces are convulsed
In mortal pains
The fairest cries, "We all
Have loved you Rael'"
Each empty snakelike body floats
Silent sorrow in empty boats
A sickly sourness fills the room
The bitter harvest of a dying bloom
Looking for motion
I know I will not find
I stroke the curls now turning pale
In which I'd lain entwined
O Lamia, your flesh that remains
I will take as my food
It is the scent of garlic that lingers
On my chocolate fingers
Looking behind me
The water turns icy blue
The lights are dimmed

880 were challenged by Travis to die
By a line that he drew with his sword as the battle drew nigh
A man that crossed over the line was for glory
And he that was left better fly
And over the line crossed 179
Hey Up Santa Anna, they're killing your soldiers below
So the rest of Texas will know
And remember the Alamo
Jim Bowie lay dying, the blood and the sweat in his eyes
But his knife at the ready to take him a few in reply
Young Davy Crockett lay laughing and dying
The blood and the sweat in his eyes
For Texas and freedom a man was more willing to die
Hey Up Santa Anna, they're killing your soldiers below
So the rest of Texas will know
And remember the Alamo
A courier came to a battle once bloody and loud
And found only skin and bones where he once left a crowd
Fear not little darling of dying
If this world be sovereign and free
For we'll fight to the last for as long as liberty be
Hey Up Santa Anna, they're killing your soldiers below
So the rest of Texas will know

If a feeling's born and no one complains
Well that's good luck
running through young veins
And if life is a blessing
that brushes the tops of the trees
Well it's a short walk
in a sweet breeze
I will need you, feed you, seed you, plead with you
All for the taste of your sweet love Thelma
If a heart is an open memory book
That was the chance I took
The more I searched, the more I shook with Thelma
Last night I slept on a rented pillow
A silver moon above my head
A thirsty dreamless sleep released me
And I reached for the phone
by the side of the bed
Now the first time that I saw you I thought
"She's beautiful, but she's too young to be caught"
People aware of my history
Trying to steer you away from me
I left a message at your hotel
Don't let management poison the well
I will need you, feed you, seed you, plead with you
All for the taste of your sweet love Thelma
The phone is ringing and I realize
we are timezones and oceans apart
The words I speak in the middle of my night
They fall on your yesterday scars
If the sun don't shine, the wind don't break
the clock don't jump off the wall
Thelma, my darling, I will cushion your fall
I will need you, feed you, seed you, plead with you
Without the taste of your sweet love Thelma
I am only a man who has skirted the edge of despair
for a long time now, and I don't care
I watch you sleeping in the hospital bed
The baby curled up in a ball
Winter sunlight hits the family tree
And everything else becomes nothing at all

Here I am alone in this empty room
No sign of living here
I hear the muffled conversation, of the neighbor, through the wall
A strangled light hangs on the window
But I can’t help myself, I’m in love with this isolation
The city shimmers, our life the low hum
And all that glitters may be gone
And the sun walks in the sky light,
In the spaces, when it starts
Raining in and slowly fall apart
Fall apart
Like a tourist in some strange hotel,
No time for worrying, my little safety, so I will live.
Here I am alone in this empty room
No sign of living here
I’ll be making conversation, in the spaces tonight
A strangled light hangs on the window

One hundred eighty Texans fought four thousand comin' strong
Fought to save the Alamo the battle twelve days long
Up from the south a general called up for their needs
The cannon fire ripped the air, shook them from their feet
He had him in an awful strange hold
Into the night they sent a man for Houston's helping hand
When they returned the site they found made their anger burn
Lord the chill on the night that they died
He thought about his friends out there hung his head and cried.
Chorus:
Remember, remember, remember the Alamo
Remember, remember, remember the Alamo
The last brave man fought to the end the battle it was lost
Fought to save the Alamo, their lives was what it cost
Lord the chill on the night that they died
He thought about his friends out there hung his head and cried.
Chorus:
Remember, remember, remember the Alamo
Remember, remember, remember the Alamo.

i'm down to one key in my pocket,
the bus station locker downtown,
the soles of my shoes ,
are as thin as my wallet,
i been sleeping close to the ground
but buried up here in my memory,
is a head full of living room hits,
i wrote about thelma when we were an item,
and i was worth more than two bits,
so i'll sing you a song about thelma,
if you have a quarter to spare,
if you had the time or a bottle of wine,
that you'd be willing to share,
and later i'll show you a picture,
of thelma when she's in her prime,
if you want to see mr i've got the key,
and the bus station locker take dimes,
i had me a band in the 60's,
"ladies texas outlaw,"
thelma could sing so we moved nashville,
and in '68, she got hot,
a high flyin' record producer,
told thelma he'd make her a star,
he wined her and dined her and stole her away
and left me with my old guitar,
she died last year on my birthday,
the day that i turned 65,
most have forgotten including her fans,
but i'm keeping her memory alive,
cuz i've got this key in my pocket,
i've had since '72,
i've built her a shrine in that locker downtown,
and i think she'd be pleased if she knew
so i'll sing you a song about thelma,
if you have a quarter to spare,
if you have the time or a bottle of wine,
and you'd be willing to share,
later i'll show you a picture,
of thelma when she's in her prime,
if you wanna see mr i've got the key,
and the bus station locker takes dimes
if you wanna see mr i've got the key

Couldn't leave you if I tried
Couldn't weather this alone
And through the darkness you still provide
The sweetest love I've ever known
Take the shadow from the road I walk upon
Be my sunshine, sunshine
And in the emptiness
You look and find someone
The damage is undone
And love has made you strong
Heaven gave me mine
Thalheim
The saddest words have come undone
Changing the very air I breathe
And miracles have just begun
In which only you and I believe
Take the shadow from the road I walk upon
Be my sunshine, sunshine
And in the weightlessness
You look and find someone
The damage is undone
And love has made you strong
Heaven gave me mine
Thalheim
When I'm all the sea
You never let me down
I'll just keep coming back to you
‘Til I walk on solid ground
From the foothills to the mountains
On the waters of the Rhine
Face to face in Shahbagh gardens
In communion, out of time
Thalheim
From the lilies of the valley
To the grapes upon the vine
The well of speculation
Is it his or hers or mine?
Thalheim
In the everything and nothing
In disharmony and rhyme
In the sound of shot and echo
Who's the victim, what's the crime?
What's the crime?
Be my, be my sunshine
In the keening cries of evening
Unforgotten, underlined
We slipped into the water

I've been driving all night I've been driving on empty
It seems like forever since I needed anything
You see I'm not really tired though I haven't been sleeping
Still I know I'm worn right to the bone
And I remember those days I spent with you
When every moment was bursting
With this life we knew would last forever
The whole way home
I'm pulling off to the side I'm looking back up the highway
I know I'm closer than I've ever been to home
And with every mile I'm reaching into my memory
I want to live the life I'm living
I want to feel the road I'm on

The scent grows richer, he knows he must be near,
He finds a long passageway lit by chandelier.
Each step he takes, the perfumes change
From familiar fragrance to flavours strange.
A magnificent chamber meets his eye.
Inside, a long rose-water pool is shrouded by fine mist.
Stepping in the moist silence, with a warm breeze hes gently kissed.
Thinking he is quite alone,
He enters the room, as if it were his own,
But ripples on the sweet pink water
Reveal some company unthought of-
Rael stands astonished doubting his sight,
Struck by beauty, gripped in fright;
Three vermilion snakes of female face,
The smallest motion, filled with grace.
Muted melodies fill the echoing hall,
But there is no sign of warning in the sirens call:

O Lamia, your flesh that remains I will take as my food
It is the scent of garlic that lingers on my choclate fingers.
Looking behind me, the water turns icy blue,
The lights are dimmed and once again the stage is set for you.

This is all a game
And i know it
Every word's a lie
I tried to believe you
But I'd just be wasting time
You're all tired, worn and broken here
And you're standing in a line again
Just turn the dial
Take me where I want to be
And tell that the doctor that I said goodbye
Tell that the doctor that I said
"Goodbye, one more chance to watch the midnight sky
On my own and now you'll never
Turn my heart to stone"
I could go on, I could go on
Turn my heart too slow
I could go on, I could go on
It's such a shame
To be living when clouds cover your sky
I tried to see clearly
Just make me feel alive
Your out crying in the parking lot
While I'm holding hands with God
Just turn the dial
Take me where I want to be
And tell that the doctor that I said goodbye
Tell that the doctor that I said
"Goodbye, one more chance to watch the midnight sky
On my own and now you'll never
Turn my heart to stone"
I could go on, I could go on
Turn my heart too slow
I could go on, I could go on
It's like pulling a needle with no thread,
In a glass house with no stones to throw through it,
It's like setting fire to the town as your boat pulls off the shore
On my own and now you'll never
Turn my heart to stone
I could go on, I could go on
Turn my heart too slow

You stand apart with the sinking sunlight.
I just came to watch you smile.
Clarity.
You work so hard that you don't know what it's like to be sure.
It's gonna work out anyway.
