A million stars light
This beautiful night
This is not a night to die
Let me sing and dance
Beneath the sky
I have such love to give...to give
I want a chance to live
Live
For the one I love
Love
As no one has loved
Give
Asking nothing in return
Free free to find my way
Free to have my say
Free to see the day
Live like I used to be
Like wild but free
For the life in me
Live
For the one I love
Love
As no one has loved
Give
Asking nothing in return
This world tears us apart
We're still together in my heart
I want the world to hear my cry
Even if I have to die
Love will not die
Love will change the world
Live
For the one I love
Love
As no one has loved
Give
Asking nothing in return
And love until love wears (?) me away
I'll die and I know my love will stay

Saint Francis came to my town
And visited the cemetery.
The dead got up and everything
Became one big one big cacaphony.
They all went down the social and
They claimed their supplementary.
And all the necrophiliacs
Were walking 'round in misery.
The rotting mass of calcium
Was shopping in the Superstore,
Careering down the aisles
Like one big psychopathic carnivore,
The shelf-stackers were alert,
In ecstasy crashed to the floor,
And meanwhile the {? sane ?} was
Growing crazy at the fire-door.
Beautiful sparkling healthy spa water of Bath
And Avon.
I! hate! {? Menace! Yeah! ?}
I! hate! {? Menace! Yeah! ?}
I! hate! {? Menace! Yeah! ?}
A million stars light
This beautiful night

Like a wild bird free
With all of life in me
Live

Love

We're still together in my heart
I want the world to hear my cry

Love

Give Asking nothing in return
I'll love until love wears me away
I'll die and I know my love will stay
in the moment I was losing my head
and I was
reachin' forward I was already there
readin' too much and losin' my head
this information caused a cut in the line
now I'm remembering good and thinking so much it's so nice.
the print is smaller than the ants in the grass
I'll have to put it away now
in the morning there are things to be read
words to be said and food to be fed but I
won't be there. I'll be clutchin' on a
megaphone pointed at my head, would you be
there, would you kindly, scream this word for word so loud and clear
I can't remember it all, it needs to be clear, I tell you, if
the feeling drops out of your voice, would you
kindly pick it up
this is how, I'll go out tonight
dressed in blue, by the book tonight
this is how, I'll go out tonight
but I don't need a book.
we're talkin' anchors, talkin' ships, we're
talkin' seas, we're talkin' everything you need
you should be workin' now, not only askin'
how and the whereabouts of where you'll
be. I don't suspect you will be thinking
when the brain is dead and the mind
has taken over, this is a skill, this
is not a game, where have you been,
are you with us? can you hear us? got
the megaphone pointed at you
The dust had just settled
She's wonderin', what happens now?
I don't know where I am
I've never seen this place before
Am I dreamin'?
Or is this the real world?
Your love's too good for me
Lay with me lady, you're drivin' me crazy
I promised you all my life
These things that sustain me, oh how they drain me
But I'll never hang you out to dry
The sun had just faded
She's wonderin', where are we now?
I don't know who, who I am
I aint never felt like this before
Am I dreamin'?
Or is this the real world
Your love's too good for me
Lay with me lady, you're drivin' me crazy
I promised you all my life
These things they sustain me, oh how they drain me
But I'll never hang you out to dry
I'll never hang you out to dry
I'll never hang you lord
I'll never hang you lord
I'll never hang you lord
I'll never hang you lord
I'll never hang you lord
Lay with me lady, you're drivin' me crazy
I promised you all my life
These things they sustain me, oh how they drain me
But I'll never hang you out to dry
I'll never hang you out to dry
I'll never hang you out to dry
slippery jack, no more turning back,
all around, morning humor
i am a waiter and i am a server
i'll run to your needs with strength and fervor
in times when you are wasted i will walk in
through the door, pick you from the floor
then watch you grow into a man
with a big burly beard
and a mustache to match
i'll watch you love the world

morning humor
the kind that wakes you up
the kind that's in my blood

oh will this ever end?
i'm sorry i don't mean to sound like a whale
trapped in the ice, but ain't it nice to say exactly
what i please...
with a big toney voice or a
soft mellow voice or the
loud boisterous voice of an opera, opera lady!
with that morning humor,
morning humor
the kind that wakes you up.
the kind that's in my blood
morning humor, morning humor, yeah...
but the joke that kills
is just a joke to you
you need some...
slippery jack, no more turning back,
all around, morning humor
the kind that wakes you up
the kind that's in my blood...
morning humor...

you got it bad
you got it good
you saw the sun
like you knew that you would
we gotta make this better
gotta make this right
ain't no peace in the valley baby
'til the darkness turns to light
can you hear that children's song?
can you take me to that place?
high above the lamentation up on the
desert plane
do you hear that children's song?
can you take me there?
lost in the maya
overboard in the sea
there was void and then that water broke
then something called "me"
now a trip to the desert to look at the sky
it's like never-ending mirrors
playing tricks on my eyes
can you hear that children's song?
can you take me to that place?
high above the lamentation up on the
desert plane
do you hear that children's song?
can you take me there?
the face and ghost my guide
i must move on
it's the face of one ravaged by love
it's both dead and alive
you got it bad lover
no you got it good
you saw the sun
like you knew that you would
in spite of my confusion
up above all my pain
I gotta death-grip on this vision
here we go again
the face and ghost my guide
i must move on
it's the face of one ravaged by love
it's both dead and alive
sha la la la la la la

can you hear them singin'?
can you hear them singin'?
can you hear that children's song?
can you take me to that place?
do you hear that pilgrim's song?
can you take me there?
Pollution, Cain, and misery
Oceans of golden mystery
Armies boisterous and armies loud
Portraits of a vicious crowd
Talk to me, talk to me now
Hey man, you're all that I have
Me, myself, myself and I
Were born to work and born the die
I have chosen my anthems
Of these I am proud
Portraits of a divided crowd
it was an evening i shared with the sun
to find out where we belong
from the earliest days
we were dancing in the shadows
more wine
cuz i got to have it
more skin
cuz i got to eat it
inside the outside, by the river, used to be so calm
used to be so sane
I rushed the lady's room
took the water from the toilet
washed her feet and blessed her name
more peace
is such a dirty habit
slow down, we're too afraid
let me ride
let me ride
burn my eyes
libra, take my eyes from me
oh libra, make me blind so that i can see
everyone's dreamin' of a truth to be
everyone's changin' channels on a big tv
oh libra, like a balance
time tried to hold her, tried to tie her down
but i beat the clock,
now the balance makes my world go round,
oh libra, like a balance
libra, my love
I liked the way my hand looked on your head
in the presence of my knuckles
but the beauty of this vision alone just like yesterday's sunset
has been perverted by the sentimental
and mistaken for love
the felix of your truth will always break
it and the iris of your eye will always shake it
and the armies, the armies I have created
will always hate it
will always bait you on
I liked the way my hand looked on your head
in the presence of my struggle
but the beauty of this vision alone I can't shake from my tree just yet
it keeps invading all my private moments
If you've ever known love
If you've ever know peace
If you've ever know joy
Make sure that you are on time
If you've ever known war
If you've ever know pain
If you've ever said no
Make sure that you are on time
You are on time
You are on time
We are on time
For you are the world Fighting, mating, warring
You are all this now
Be aware, not scared
Look at me now
Silence
I say
Battle flag in the bassinet
Oil and blood on the bayonet
Crowded downtown hit the floor
What are we fightin' for?
What are we fightin' for?
What are we fightin' for?
The world got smaller but the bombs got bigger
Holocaust on a hairpin trigger
Aint no game so forget the score
What are we fightin' for?
What are we fightin' for?
What are we fightin' for?
What are we fightin' for?
What will I tell my daughter?
What will you tell your son?
Where were all the doves?
That we were nothing but a shadow,
a faceless generation devoid of love?
The crucifix ain't no baseball bat
Tell me what kind of God is that?
Ain't nothing more godless than a war
So what are we fightin' for?
What are we fightin' for?
What are we fightin' for?
What are we fightin' for?
What will I tell my daughter?
What will you tell your son?
Where were all the doves?
That we were nothing but a shadow,
A faceless generation?
let's gather round the supper table,
and tell the boy he's just as able
to die with his boots untied
evening's come, let's settle down
and sing one more song without a frown
sing for, sing for our voices
and more, sing for our choices,
just don't lie, lie, lie, lie, lie...
love must stand when raising a man... raising a man...
to teach him direction and the best that he can
and lesson one, you will run,
sink into your chair with fright
a baby boy is born today
where comes he from, where will he play?
will he run or will he stand?
now i lay him down to sleep
a state of mind, his soul will keep.
i give him words, words to say
that he might love, love everyday
just don't lie, lie, lie, lie, lie...
love must stand when raising a man
to teach him direction and the best that he can
and lesson one, you will run,
sink into your chair with fright
let the world be the world
let the dream unfurl
let it run its own game
let it dance with itself
I didn't put it here
gonna let it ride
gotta master, crazy on the other side
wakin' me up
I ain't got no brains
I can't trust my eyes
what good's a beautiful day
if you can't see the light?
I can't find my fate
well then I must be blind
with the force and fire of love
that's takin over my mind
wakin' me up
obligin' me to the sun
obligin' me to the sun
sun sun merciful one
sun sun
sun sun won't you lay down your light on us
sun sun
let the world be the world
let the girl be the girl
let her beauty move ya
let her dance be your guide
let your hunger grow
but don't eat the fruit "too low"
keep climbin' for the kisses on the other side
wakin' me up obligin' me to the sun
obligin' me to the sun
sun sun merciful one
sun sun
sun sun won't you lay down your light on us
sun sun
all we need is to come into the sun
we've been out in the dark for so long
if I told you he was your brother
we could reminisce
then you would go about your day
if I said you ought to give him
some of your water
you'd shake your canteen and walk away
the perception that divides you from him
is a lie
for some reason you never asked why
this is not a black and white world
you can't afford to believe in your side
this is not a black and white world
to be alive
I say that the colors must swirl
and I believe
that maybe today
we will all get to appreciate
the beauty of gray
if I told you that she was your mother
we could analyze the situation and be gone
if I said you ought to give her
some of your water
your eyes would light up like the dawn
the perception that divides you from her
is a lie
for some reason you never asked why
this is not a black and white world
you can't afford to believe in your side
this is not a black and white world
to be alive
I say the colors must swirl
and I believe
that maybe today
we will all get to appreciate
the beauty of gray
look into your eyes
no daylight
new day now
see me walking aimlessly about,
don't know whether to whisper or to shout,
i could be wrong, i could be very, very right.
here i stand, innocence in my room
she's naked in my bed, wild thoughts inside my head
oh no! she's my...
sister, with her, don't let your heart
break too soon.
maybe, baby, come on sister,
lady you're my breath!
i could have been to you tonight
what i've wanted to be all my life
the day is gone now i can see.
i can't sustain your love
i can't complain your love
i can't explain your love
oh no! she's my...
sister, with her, don't let your heart
break too soon
maybe, baby, come on sister,
lady you're my breath!
sister yeah...
My ammunition won't load into my gun
My inhibitions, they fall like the weight from a stone
You lead my heart away like a homeless, dusted fool
Somehow this dime store ring still shines like a diamond to you
Oh, how it deepens
Oh, how it deepens
Your mystery
Keeps on turnin' me on
Your mystery
Thought I knew the rules, thought I held it in my hand
Thought I was bulletproof till the blood pooled up in the sand
Are you a satellite, a shooting star or a dove?
Did we put you way up there or did God send you down from above?
Oh, how it deepens
Oh, how it deepens
Your mystery
Keeps on turnin' me on
Your mystery
Burns me up like the sun
Your mystery
Mine eyes have seen the glory of a love that does transcend
Mine eyes have seen the worst inside of man
And fear is like a fallen bridge broken from an edge
Never used to be so tired
Never used to be so anxious
Never said, "used to be", so much
If this is love then I
Have been so sorely mistaken
If this is peace then I
Have been so falsely awakened, yeah
Please don't tell me what love is
Let's look together
And find out what love is not
I've been to every book
I've been to every seer
In order to find the truth
As if it lives somewhere
I want to uproot my violence
I want to live like a saint
I want to give up everything
Just like the businessman wants to gain
Just like the businessman wants to gain
Please don't tell me what love is
Let's look together
And find out what love is not
Please don't tell me what peace is
Let's look together
And find out what peace is not
And find out what peace is not
And find out what love is not
And find out what peace is not, yeah
Oh, oh yeah
Never used to be so tired
Never used to feel so anxious
Never said, "used to be", so much
If this is love then I
Have been so sorely mistaken
If this is peace then I
Have been so falsely awakened, oh my Lord
Please don't tell me what love is
Let's look together
Lightning crashes, a new mother cries
Her placenta falls to the floor
The angel opens her eyes, the confusion sets in
Before the doctor can even close the door
Lightning crashes, an old mother dies
Her intentions fall to the floor
The angel closes her eyes, the confusion that was hers
Belongs now, to the baby down the hall
Oh now feel it comin' back again
Like a rollin' thunder chasing the wind
Forces pullin' from the center of the earth again
I can feel it
Lightning crashes, a new mother cries
This moment she's been waiting for
The angels open her eyes, pale blue colored iris
Presents the sun and puts th glory out to hide, hide
Oh, now feel it comin' back again
Like a rollin' thunder chasing the wind
Forces pullin' from the center of the earth again
i'll kill you in my dreams
i turn the other cheek during the day
i'll kill you all
the subculture of my dreams
is waiting for me to fall asleep
i know you're scared, you should be
k know you're scared
hero
dreamer
this attic of my mind
these feelings i can't hide
i can't share
i feel alone, ah yeah
the subconscious keeps me here
i fell in love with a balladeer
i saw your tongue, it licked my heart
they called you queer
hero
dreamer
hero
they called you queer
they called you queer
they called you queer
all the things that they make you say
and all of the love that you hide away
I'll pick you up and it will be all right
I'll pick you up and it will be tonight
she rode a horse into my head
she won't discipline the children
and now they're running wild on the beach
and I don't care
oh, I don't care
no I don't care hey, hey, hey
it's the middle of the night and you're here
playing dominoes and drinking beer
I tried to think of something deep to say
but my well is dripping dry today, hey
I keep a close watch on this heart of mine
I keep my eyes wide open all the time.
I keep the ends out for the tie that binds
Because you're mine, I walk the line
I find it very, very easy to be true
I find myself alone when each day is through
Yes, I'll admit that I'm a fool for you
Because you're mine, I walk the line
As sure as night is dark and day is light
I keep you on my mind both day and night
And happiness I've known proves that it's right
Because you're mine, I walk the line
You've got a way to keep me on your side
You give me cause for love that I can't hide
For you I know I'd even try to turn the tide
Because you're mine, I walk the line
I keep a close watch on this heart of mine
I keep my eyes wide open all the time.
I keep the ends out for the tie that binds
Because you're mine, I walk the line
people should not be afraid
we came to the earth to graze
no shortcuts to the face, this means you
a child gives you his shoes
people should not be afraid
we cam to the earth to graze
if it slithers into the haze
it can't be true
a child gives you his shoes
in the early morning, cut her down
this pill, she needs your love
forget your mother and your father
they aren't important son
we came to the earth to graze
everyone's diggin'in
now there's no time to live
live
people should not be afraid
the artist does figure eights
but will it stand the test of time
or will it rot
like the mission that tried too hard
in the early morning, cut her down
this pill, she needs your love
forget your mother and your father
everybody has a ghost
everybody has a ghost who sings like you do
yours is not like mine
but it's alright, keep it up
boy loses rib in new orleans
he can't help eyein' up the whores
under the bridge
boy loses rib and lets a hellified cry into the dark
where did i go wrong?
where did i go wrong?
i never needed this before
i need a woman to help me feel
everybody has the dream
everybody has the dream like a world tattoo
yours is not like mine, it's alright, keep it up
the scalped dives into the skin
good doctors never leave a scar
no proof again
i'll taake the myth, you take the blood
it's all the same to the world dreamer
it's all the same in the end
boy loses rib in new orleans
he trades some ether for a chance
under the bridge
boy loses rib as he's summoned to the mud
flat on his back
Gotta find a way to flow
in a host of things that grow,
where babies become old
and love is bought and sold.
The mouth of god is wide,
so let's just fall inside
and let the whole damn thing go
and flow...
Everybody's here
Mystery and beer
I have nothin to fear
Cuz I found a way to flow
in a host of things that grow
where babies become old
and love is bought and sold.
The mouth of god is wide,

Everbody's here
The mystery is near
I have nothin to fear
Cuz I found a way to flow
in a host of things that grow

and love is bought and sold.
The mouth of god is wide,
so I'll just fall inside
and let every damn thing go

Everywhere we go

You saw the sun
Like I knew that you would
We gotta make this better
Gotta make this right
Ain't no peace in the valley baby
'Til the darkness turns to light
Can you hear that children's song?
Can you take me to that place?
High above the lamentation up on the desert Plane
Do you hear that children's song?
Can you take me there?
Lost in the maya
Overboard in the sea
There was void and then that water broke
Then something called "me"
Now a trip to the desert to look at the sky
It's like never-ending mirrors
Playin' tricks on my eyes
Can you hear that children's song?
Can you take me to that place?
High above the lamentation up on the desert plane
Do you hear the children's song?
Can you take me there?
The face and ghost my guide
I must move on
It's the face of one ravaged by love
It's both dead and alive
You got it bad lover
No you got it good
You saw the sun
Like I knew that you would
In spite of my confusion
Up above all my pain
I gotta death-grip on this vision
Here we go again
The face and ghost my guide
I must move on
It's the face of one ravaged by love
It's both dead and alive

Forever may not be long enough for my love
I have a will but I'm lost inside your time
If you could, would you come with me to the other side?
Forever may not be long enough
Forever may not be long enough
Forever may not be long enough for this life

This world is never enough
And I'm not giving it up

Open your heart and everything will be alright
Open your heart, baby, leave with me, don't be afraid

Forever may not be long enough
The lighthouse lost its light on her a long time ago
She got so used to it, this long and winding road
I'll never ever let you go, oh
I can't believe she whispered to me
I don't wanna breathe
Oh no
This ship of fools sails west by night-time and by day
Circumnavigates her globe like a bullet gone astray
Come on home baby, where it's safe
I can't believe she whispered to me
I don't wanna breathe
I don't wanna breathe
Even if you drink from the chalice of cheap escape and fade away
I'll never ever let you go
I can't believe she whispered to me
I don't wanna breathe
I don't wanna breathe
She whispered to me
Now I can't believe she whispered to me
i watched a man tell his boy
about the pains of reality
then i watched that child grow into a soldier
defending contradictions and paving the way...
who put the fear in here?
i watched a miracle in the making
then had a scientist tell me that i
couldn't live without breaking,
my habits of fearlessness and crying for the world...
who put the fear in here?
was it you, who finally shed the tear?
someone told me that two lovers bound
could put another sun in the sky
if you believed it, there'd be
twice the light and no one would be scared to fly
if i believed it, there'd be
twice the light and no one would be scared to fly
i thought i knew exactly what scared me
and i would never have to run again.
so i went to sleep and began dreaming
of perfect lives in paradise
woke up and started screaming...
who put the fear in here?
who put the fear in here? oh no...
was it you who finally shed the tear?
then who put the fear in here?
What do you say to the child
Whose god is in the T.V.?
And what do you say to the man
Who blames the world on T.V.?
They don't even know how to sing my song
But they won't even try it
With me, with me, with me
Who is standing over playing like
The teacher
Harnessing the learned
Who try but can't leave her
I want to beg the liars to lay down
Their sirens
That play like the angels
To my deep desire
Free my son
Let him walk right through the rain
Free my son
Make him waterboy
Free my son
There he stands down on the shore
Free my son
What do you say to the man
Who treats her like a mother?
And what do you say to the man
Who treats him like a father?
"Come and see my heart. Come inside
And learn"?
Come and see my soul, it's like yours,
I say it's just like yours"?
Who is making over
Idolizing princes banishing the dreamers with
Barbed-wire fences
And telling all the children who run to
Her feet
That they have no vision
And love's all diseased
Paint a moustache on the Mona Lisa
Ride a Harley through the heart of danger
Pick up a pen and fight a war for the right to dream
I was seventeen
GIve up my house and sleep for nights on concrete
Meditate with all the bums on vine street
No more runnin', no more hidin' in the house of the dead
I think I'll grow some dreads
I believe in the sanctity of dreams
No more runnin' from these masqueraders
I believe that society will never dream like me
I dream of love and the empty graveyard
I dream of vegas and the transcendental wildcard
A place where no one waits to die before they go into the light
And just the blind have sight
I follow nothin' but the compass of my instinct
No matter where he leads, I know he'll take me to the brink
And leave me there, all by myself, and all alone with my dreams
Can you hear my scream?
I believe in the sanctity of dreams
No more runnin' from these masqueraders
I believe that society will never dream like me
Never dream like me
Society will never dream like me
Never dream like me
I believe in the sanctity of dreams
No more runnin' from these masqueraders
I believe that society will never dream like me
I believe in the sanctity of dreams
No more runnin' from these masqueraders
I believe that society will never dream like me
Never dream like me
Society (x2) will never dream like me
Society (x3) will never dream like me
i was on a street with a common name i prayed for love
yeah i even begged i had a vision of you that carried me through
i was on a street with a common name i prayed for love
yeah i even begged i had a vision of you that carried me through
and nobody really knows what i would do for you nobody really knows
how much i love you nobody really knows,
nobody knows nobody knows, nobody knows
i cleared my mind and i turned around grateful to the one
who had laid me down i was silent in love pourin down from above
like so much rain it fell and pierced my brains the trees all alive
with their colors like the dreams of man i had a vision of you
that carried me through
and nobody really knows what i would do for you now
nobody really knows how much i love you baby nobody really knows,
Tonight the road has no end
And you are my only friend
Oh, so I give you my love
It's all that I have to give
Oh, I give you my love
I give you my love
Tonight the answer is clear
We are so far and so near
Oh, so I give you my love
It's all that I have to give
Oh, I give you my love
And the life I have left to live
Oh, I give you my love
It's all that I have to give
Oh, I give you my love
I give you my love
I give you my love
Like a diamond
She never stops shinin'
She's always alive
And she's walking with me
Tonight we stand as one heart
One mind, nothing left behind
Oh, so I give you my love
It's all that I have to give
Oh, I give you my love
And the life I have left to live
Oh, I give you my love
Yeah, I give it
Oh, yeah, I give you my love
I give you my love
I know that I should think about giving
And think about
Helping out
And think about
Think about living
But I can't seem to rescue myself
What about my bank account
And my holy desert shield
That keep me dry under the arms?
Flags and mental jewelry's all I know
And they keep my happy and warm inside
So I said unto this man
"Who are you and where do you come from?"
And he proceeded to tell me many things
But I said nothing at all
For the flowers in the corner, by the room,
In the window, and the sun
Said it all
At least they said they would
Said they could
Mama said they would
like himaalan cold winter
these jaws of kali yuga
yeah it's a crazy kind of cold
a lifeless slumber in a stranglehold
yeah tibet, she can't even touch this
I'd rather freeze in her forests
we're in a spiritual winter
and I long for the one who is
Fire!
amongst the dreamers
you are in my heart
like the sun on the icecaps
my only friend in the prison
the long lost meaning to the story, story
the divine and ancient wisdom
how could it be that you've graced my night?
like a pardon from the governor
like a transplant from the donor
like a gift from the one who is
Fire!
amongst the dreamers
you are in my heart
Fire!
amongst the dreamers
you are in my heart
in a place where everything dies
it's you I follow
see by the fire
of my darlin', yeah!
Fire!
amongst the dreamers
you are, you are
in my heart
like a pardon from the governor
like a transplant from the donor
Darling, I feel like a god when I am next to you
Something sacred, someone straight and true
Tell me, do you feel the same way too?
Darling, your face is radiant with the light of love
The kind that's sent straight down from up above
And now you're all I'm thinking of
Thinking of
Thinking of
Thinking of
Don't you give me loving like a revelation
Don't you make me burn and make me feel the danger
Salutations to the maker of my finest hour
Goddess, queen, mother, sister, lover
Don't you ever leave
Darling, I feel like a god when I am next to you
Something worth the worship of this honest fool
Tell me do you feel the same way too?
Like I do?
Like I do
Like I do
Don't you give me loving like a revelation
Don't you make me burn and make me feel the danger
Salutations to the maker of my finest hour
Goddess, queen, mother, sister, lover
Don't you ever
Don't you give me loving like a revelation
Don't you make me burn and make me feel the danger
Salutations to the maker of my finest hour
Goddess, queen, mother, sister, lover
Don't leave
Don't leave
Oh yeah
Don't leave
Don't you give me loving like a revelation
Don't you make me burn and make me feel the danger
Salutations to the maker of my finest hour
Goddess, queen, mother, sister, lover
Don't you ever
Don't you give me loving like a revelation
Don't you give me love
Don't you give me love
Don't you give me love
Don't you feel the same way like I do?
Like I do
Like I do
In the country
The farms and the orchards swell
With oranges and peaches
A little bit of truth as well
In the city
Politicians beat their drum
All the suits come a runnin'
It's all degeneration
Life Marches On
Life Marches On
Life Marches On
In the country
Everybody thinks we're dumb
But we built the fire
Why'd you come and get you some?
In the city, skyscrapers touch the sky
What's the use in being so high up
When it's only gonna bleed you dry?
Life Marches On
Life Marches On
Life Marches On
In the country
The stars shine brighter
Than in the city
In the country
In the country
In the city
I turn on the radio
Only leaves me down with the question:
What happened to our generation?
Life Marches On
Life Marches On
Life Marches On
Oh yeah, yeah
Life Marches On
Oh yeah
Life Marches On
Life Marches On
it's easier not to be wise
and measure these things by your brains
I sank into Eden with you
alone in the church by and by
I'll read to you here, save your eyes
you'll need them, your boat is at sea
your anchor is up, you've been swept away
and the greatest of teachers won't hesitate
to leave you there, by yourself, chained to fate
I alone love you
I alone tempt you
I alone love you
fear is not the end of this!
it's easier not to be great
and measure these things by your eyes
we long to be here by his resolve
alone in the church by and by
to cradle the baby in space
and leave you there by yourself chained to fate
oh, now, we took it back too far,
only love can save us now,
all these riddles that you burn
all come runnin' back to you,
all these rhythms that you hide
only love can save us now,
I'm a soldier on the field
Fighting for you, fighting for me
You can see it on our faces
Like the bullets leave traces
You can feel it for real
You can't imagine the pain of my baby so far away
So far from my home...
When they comin' home?
When they leavin' that place?
To see their lovers face again
Kid will see his daddy's face again
When they comin' home?
Oh shed some grace!
To see their lovers face again
Kid will see his daddy's face again
I'm a soldier on the field
Waiting to die, praying to live
To survive one more day
But my hope begins to fray
It's my flesh against the steel
You'll never know what I've known
You'll never see what I've seen
I hope we make it home...
When they comin' home?
When they leavin' that place?
To see their lovers face again
Kid will see his daddy's face again
When they comin' home?
Oh shed some grace!
Put your peace in the valley tonight
Bring the soldier home alright
When they coming' home?
Oh, when they leavin' that place?
To see their lovers face again
Kid will see his daddy's face again
So far from home
She cries, politics aside
What I'd give to have him here tonight
When they comin' home?
When they leavin' that place?
To see their lovers face again
Kid will see his daddy's face again
When they comin' home?
Oh shed some grace!
Put your peace in the valley tonight
Bring the soldier home alright
When they coming' home?
Oh, children playing in the sun?
To see their lovers face again
Kid will see his daddy's face again
When they comin' home?
Oh, ?
Put your peace in the valley tonight
Bring the soldier home alright
When they coming' home?
Oh, children playing in the sun?
To see their lovers face again
Kid will see his daddy's face again
When they comin' home?
Oh, ?
You don't need no friends
get back your faith again
you have the power to believe
another dissident
take back your evidence
it has no power to deceive
I'll believe it when I see it, for myself
I don't need no one to tell me about heaven
I look at my daughter, and I believe.
I don't need no proof when it comes to God and truth
I can see the sunset and I perceive
I sit with them all night
everything they say is right
but in the morning they were wrong
I'll be right by your side
come hell or water high
down any road you choose to roam
I'll believe it when I see it for myself
I don't need no one to tell me about heaven
I look at my daughter, and I believe.
I don't need no proof when it comes to God and truth
I can see the sunset and I perceive, yeah
darling, I believe, Oh Lord
sometimes it's hard to breathe, Lord
at the bottom of the sea, yeah yeah
I'll believe it when I see it for myself
I don't need no one to tell me about heaven
I look at my daughter, and I believe.
I don't need no proof when it comes to God and truth
I can see the sunset and I perceive
I don't need no one to tell me about heaven
I look at my daughter, and I believe.
I don't need no proof when it comes to God and truth
I can see the sunset
I can see the sunset
I can see the sunset
I don't need no one
Ohhhh
I don't need no one
I don't need no one
I don't need no one
To tell me about heaven
I believe
if the mother goes to sleep with you
will you run and tell geraldo
if the mother bears your children without tears
without the usual costs of labor
if the mother goes to bed with you
will you run and tell the neighbors
will you hide behind that get up that you wear
or will take te first ear that comes into contact with your blade
like peter did on the hill
will you call her a freak?
will you call them freaks?
if the mother goes to bed with you
will you run and tell the papers
how she picked you from a line up in downtown philadelphia
with a cigarette hangin' out of your mouth and henry miller in your back pocket
you little fucker
if the mother goes to bed with you
in the bowels of the cathedral
will you render her asunder with what she really needs
or will you crash that beautiful silence with some talk about
finding yourself in you mother's arms
will you call her a freak
will you call them freaks
or will you call them gods
will you call them freaks
you know you sperm is weak
you never looked, so high
to ever find her so low
you did not have to go, that far
to show her you were holy
now you know they're gonna come for you
and drag your silly name into the mud
if the mother bears your children without tears
forever may not be long enough for my love i have a will
but i'm lost inside your time if you could,
would you come with me to the other side?
forever may not be long enough forever may not be long enough
forever may not be long enough for this love forever forever forever

i'd spill it freely for some my faith in love is like blood,

always fighting the storm
afraid to suffer the wound
all praise to that conscious one
who always suffers the wound, child
suffers the wound, child
hey!
suffers the wound!
never turns from love
give it up
always try to explain
afraid to lay naked in the sun
he's crazy, she dances in the light
the crowd jeers, they won't put up a fight
hey!
suffers the wound!
never turns from love
give it up
until my heart is free to roam
she won't never leave me alone
saved by the river now
saved
always fighting the storm
buildin' shelter to house our lack of love
we're only here for a while
tear it down and suffer the wound
hey!
suffers the wound!
never turns from love
give it up
until my heart is free to roam
she won't never leave alone
saved by the river now, saved
(never turns from love, never turns to hate)
always suffers the wound, never turns from love
never turns to hate
saved by the river now
always suffers the wound, never turns from love
never turns to hate
an invisible mississippi, ganges or a nile
I can feel the quiet river rage
forcin' my lips into a smile
don't believe that the world is empty
just too noisy to hear the sound
I can feel the quiet river rage
and I'm fallin' down
saved by the river now
I was looking everywhere to find you
By and by, my intentions were good
But I know I don't watch where I'm walking
When I know I should
If the nighttime turns into day before I say what I mean
God damn all these obstacles before me, yeah
Every time I see your face, it's like Heaven opens up her gates
And I fall behind, I just close my eyes, I just close my eyes
If the quicksand of love and deception
Finds a way to come between you and me
Don't fret, I'm gonna cut through the darkness and set us free, yeah
And if you wanna just lay with me darlin, let the mystery silently speak
Take my tongue, take my lungs if you want, I'll even try not to breathe, yeah
Every time I see your face, something overwhelms my heart with grace
And I fall behind, I just close my eyes I just close my eyes
Every time I see your face
I know you are the one (I was looking everywhere to find you)
I know you're more than wonderful
I know you are the one
Every time I see your face, it's like Heaven opens up her gates
And I fall behind, I just close my eyes, I just close my eyes
Every time I see your face, something overwhelms my heart with grace
And I fall behind, I just close my eyes, I just close my eyes
Yeah, oh, oh, yeah
Every time
I see your face
Every time
Deep enough for you
Deep enough for you
Deep enough for you
Deep enough for you
We hit the room, me and my crew and it was cool
Until we bumped into you now it's been years
But there you were like a Mustang
Redlinin' every single gear with a man
That danced like he was born in '49
But lost his groove back in ancient times
I wanna know are those replacement hips?
Is that a swatch watch? Do you know what time it is?
Does he run it deep enough
To take you there?
Does he run it deep enough
Oh, tell me baby
Does he run it deep enough?
Tell me, tell me
Does he run it deep enough?
Does he run it deep enough for you?
We hit a couch, the place was packed with sweaty palms
Sweaty thongs, and sweaty backs my mouth was dry
My brain cold high, the groove was right
So I decided to ignite your eyes met mine
You skirt began to rise and so did I
Now you know that I took that prize
In the middle of the club, in the middle of the club
In the middle of club, now tell me
Does he run it deep enough
To take you there?
Does he run it deep enough?
Oh, tell me baby
Does he run it deep enough?
Tell me baby
Does he run it deep enough?
Does he run it deep enough for you?
Does he run it deep enough
To take you there?
Does he run it deep enough
Oh, tell me baby
Does he run it deep enough
Oh tell me, tell me
I'm just a jealous guy
I'm just a jealous guy
Does he run it deep enough
To take you there?
Does he run it deep enough?
Oh, tell me, tell me
Does he run it deep enough?
Tell me, baby
Does he run it deep enough?
Does he run it deep enough?
Does he run it deep enough?
So many people
I know only a few
Yes I may say that I love this man
And that man
But what keeps me from loving you?
Date of birth, geography
The color of my skin, ideology
You got ten fingers, two legs, on nose
Like me
Just like me
And it's as simple as that
You see
And if I don't know who to Love
I love them all
And if I don't know who to trust
I trust them all
And if I don't know who to kill
I may kill myself instead
From the mouth of a baby
Will come the world saving words
That will save us all
And from the lungs of a child
Will come the everlasting breath of God
Increasing peace and honesty
And not carrying on Despite of me
Don't you know
This ain't about no race, no creed
No race, no creed
And it's as simple as that
You see
And if I don't know who to love
I love them all
And if I don't know who to trust
I trust them all
And if I don't know who to kill
No suicide
I was lost, I am found
All the buildings are burnt to the ground
I can't stay, I can't leave
I can't do no nothing?, not a thing
Do you see your son down on the street?
Is that a gun or just the father that he needs?
Do you cry, do you weep?
Do you see the world as only tragedy?
In the early mornin' there were revelations in my mind
I can hear the masters cryin' out from their graves most every night
Bring the people together
Bring the people together
It's a crime, this dark time
We wait for presidents who never turn the tide
I find it hard, I find it strange
Go to the movies, have Picasso paint your cage
I've had enough, I think I'm done
So sell me down the river, I'll be waiting there in love
In the early morning there were revelations in my mind
I can hear the masters crying out from the graves most every night
Bring the people together
Bring the people together, yeah
Bring the people together
Bring the people together, yeah
Bring the people together
For the sake of these children we leave behind
Can you remember a time, a time, a time?
I was lost, I am found
All the buildings are burnt to the ground
I can't stay, I can't leave
I can't do no nothing?, not a thing
Tell me, is this a nation? Is this a tribe?
Is this the world or just some everyday beehive?
We need it now, yeah, we need it quick
Our love is like water
Pinned down and abused for being strange
Our love is no other than me alone, for me all day
Our love is like water, pinned down and abused, hey
All over you, all over me
The sun, the fields, the sky
I've often tried to hold
The sea, the sun, the fields, the tide
Pay me now, lay me down
Oh, yeah
Our love is like water
Pinned down and abused for being strange
Our love is no other, than me alone, for me all day
Our love is like angels, pinned down and abused, hey
All over you, all over me
The sun, the fields, the sky
I've often tried to hold
The sea, the sun, the fields, the tide
Pay me now, lay me down
Pay me now, pay me now
Lay me down, lay me down, lay me down
All over you, all over me
All over you, all over me, yeah
Pay me now, lay me down, down
Pay me now, pay me now
Lay me down, lay me down, lay
Our love is like water
Pinned down and abused for being strange
Our love is no other
Than me alone, hey, hey, hey
All over you, all over me
The sun, the fields, the sky
I've often tried to hold
The sea, the sun, the fields, the tide
Pay me now, lay me down, down
Pay me now, pay me now
All I need
Is right here on my sleeve
You get what you get with me, girl
You get the grace and the stain
Count to three and I'll be on my knees
Tryin' to set you free, girl
Tryin' hard to make you see
My love is here to stay
My love is here to stay
Open your heart
You can find your own way
I found they're all the same
My love is here to stay
All I need
Is witherin' on that dream
The fruit of all knowledge, darlin'
The one you were supposed to give to me
Now I sit here
Like a buddha in this chair
Watchin' your spectacle unfold
I'm sorry, I don't mean to stare
But baby, my love is here to stay
My love is here to stay
Open your heart
You can find your own way
I found they're all the same
My love is here to stay, yeah
Like the sun that shines behind the mind
Like the one before all days go by
Like the sun that shines behind our
Like the sun that shines behind the mind
Oh, it shines
Oh, how it shines
All I need
Is right here on my sleeve
The world is burning down
Can't you smell the smoke in the air?
War, disease, and famine
This demon, she is everywhere
Poets and preachers and politicians
They've all had their say
And we got 10,000 years
Devoted to nothing
But tomorrow and yesterday
If all of the ignorance in the world
Passes a second ago
What would you say?
Who would you obey?
I am here to say that
Peace is now
Mr. President
I hereby pardon you of all your crimes
For they are just as much mine
Selfishness and separation have led me
To believe that the world is not my problem
The world is not my problem
I am the world
And you are the world
If all of the ignorance in the world
Passes a second ago
What would you say?
Who would you obey?
I am here to say that
Don't you feel so very pointless
In the feelings of the rain
And the violence of the sun
I must confess that I feel graciously
Bigger than the rain
And hotter than the sun
What did you do
What do you say
When the blood spilled is of your loved one
And the kremlins of the world fall around you
We deal in dreams, yeah
We deal in dreams
We deal in structures that grow cold in our hearts
Oh fearful, crying people
The fool is by the river
Watching, but not swimming
It takes energy not to get used to it
And fall into this place
Where everything runs together and dies
This quiet kingdom she is now
Forever will she be, in silent celebration
We deal in dreams, yeah
We deal in dreams
We deal in structures that grow cold in our hearts, yeah
We deal in dreams
We deal in dreams
We deal in structures that grow cold in our hearts, yeah
We deal in dreams
We deal in dreams, silent silent dreams
Structures that grow cold
Structures that grow cold
Structures that grow cold in our hearts, yeah
Don't you feel so very pointless
In the feelings of the rain

my brother kicked his feet to sleep
my brother kicked his feet to sleep
my brother kicked his feet to sleep
and i sang the dirge song
my brother never missed a beat
my brother kicked his feet to sleep, sweet feet
my brother kicked his feet to sleep
and i sang the dirge song
Angel, don't you have some bagels in my oven?
Lady, don't you know a man when you see one?
Crazy lady with the shiny shoes, where are you?
Kick you feet and calm the space that makes
you hollow
little swami's got his bowl to eat
little swami always walks his beat, sweet feet
little swami's got his bowl to eat
and i sing the dirge song
it's amazing how they come to see
the little swami with his bowl to eat, sweet feet
the little swami only wears a sheet
and won't sing the dirge song
anal, tight-assed soldier with that dogged heart
put down your gun
we are ready to explode, we gotta take it smart
light up a cigarette she said
and calm the fuck down
you got a serious side to you
that could give the whole world a frown
now nothin' really matters to me you see
check out these holes in my gown
let your eyes lose their focus a little
let your guard come down
i was thirsty for everything
but water wasn't my style
guess we might have to teach me somethin'
guess we might have to show me how
now put out that cigarette she said
somethin' ain't right in here
it's tied to the both of us, I ain't sure now, it isn't clear
we could have been born helpless children
beggin' for our next meal
I could be a voodoo lady, just a classy hooker
playin' the field
classy holy hooker!!!
hey! I've made up my mind, yeah
I came to see your sign
disappear this mornin' but come back tonight
light up a cigarette she said
and calm the fuck down
relax and let your ears hear this beautiful song
that's hidin' underneath the sound
underneath the sound!!!
I made up my mind
I came to see you fly
disappear this mornin' but come back tonight
voodoo lady
voodoo lady
voodoo lady
voodoo lady
I was thirsty for everything but blood, wasn't my style!
voodoo lady
did I dream you up or are you for real?
are you for real?
naked lovers feel the blood beneath their veins
electric nerves communicate
with tiny explosions through our brains
who is this energy that never left or came?
give rise to passion the only glory
of this human story
I give my heart and soul to the one
we spend all of our lives goin' out of our minds
looking back to our birth, forward to our demise
even scientists say, everything is just light
not created, destroyed but eternally bright
masters in everytime lord in everyplace
those who stood up for love down in spite of the hate
in spite of the hate
who put the flower in the barrel of that gun?
who lit the candle that started the fire,
burnt down the fortress, the throne?
who could house all the refugees in a single shack
or a lowly bungalow?
who lives in a different dimension, free from the
struggles we know?
I give my heart and soul to the one
we spend all of our lives goin' out of our minds
looking back to our birth, forward to our demise
even scientists say, everything is just light
not created, destroyed but eternally bright
masters in everytime lord in everyplace
those who stood up for love down in spite of the hate
we spend all of our lives goin' out of our minds
they live in the light
we made it to the moon
but we can't make it home
waitin' on a rescue that never comes
made it to the moon
but we can't make it home
maybe home is where the heart is given up
to the one
to the one
we spend all of our lives goin' out of our minds
lookin' back to our birth, forward to our demise
we spend all of our lives goin' out of our minds
they live, they
they stood up for love
stood up for love
stood up for love
they stood up for love
stood up for love
stood up for love
we spend all of our lives goin' out of our minds
masters in everytime
we spend all of our lives goin' out of our minds
let's go hang out in a mall, or a morgue,
a smorgasboard
let's go hang out in a church
we'll go find lurch
then we'll haul ass down through the abbey
is it money, is it fame
what's in a name, shame?
is it money, is it fame
or were they always this lame?
it's a crazy, crazy mixed up town
but it's the rattlesnake i fear
in another place, in another time
i'd be drivin' trucks my dear
i'd be skinnin' hunted deer
deer
let's go hang out in a bar
it's not too far
we'll take my car
we'll lay flowers at the grave of jesco white
the sinner's saint
the rack is full and so are we
looks like america's dropped her load
she was ready to explode
i could not see her from up here
cuz she was lyin' in the road
my head's in the ground
i can't make a sound
my head's in the ground
looks like america's dropped her load
she tried to cal me on the telephone
"everything is fine, now the baby's here!"
she'll have to handle this one on her own
my head's in the ground
i can't make a sound
the priests were all stoned
california was in my mind
and love was a game that we played
my head's in the ground
i can't make a sound
the priests were all stoned
the fact that you moaned
sittin' on the beach
the island king of love
deep in fijian seas
deep in some blissful dream
where the goddess finally sleeps
in the lap of her lover
subdued in all her rage
and I am aglow with the taste
of the demons driven out
and happily replaced
with the presence of real love
the only one who saves
I wanna dance with you
I see a world where people live and die with grace
the karmic ocean dried up and leave no trace
I wanna dance with you
I see a sky full of the stars that change our minds
and lead us back to a world we would not face
the stillness in your eyes
convinces me that I
I don't know a thing
and I been around the world and I've
tasted all the wines
a half a billion times
came sickened to your shores
you show me what this life is for
I wanna dance with you
I see a world where people live and die with grace
the karmic ocean dried up and leave no trace
I wanna dance with you
I see a sky full of the stars that change our minds
and lead us back to a world we would not face
in this altered state
full of so much pain and rage
you know we got to find a way to let it go
sittin' on the beach
the island king of love
deep in fijian seas
deep in the heart of it all
where the goddess finally sleeps
after eons of war and lifetimes
she smilin' and free, nothin' left
but a cracking voice and a song, oh lord
I wanna dance with you
i see a world where people live and die with grace
the karmic ocean dried up and leave no trace
I wanna dance with you
i see a sky full of the stars that change our minds
and lead us back to a world we would not face
we would not face
we would not face
we would not face
we would not face
Heard a lot of talk about the ocean
Heard a lot of talk about the sea
Heard a lot of talk about a lot of things
Never meant that much to me
Heard a lot of talk about my spirit
Heard a lot of talk about my soul
But I decided that anxiety and pain
Were better friends
So I let it go
Did you let it go?
Let's get it back
Let's get it back together
Heard a lot of talk about this Jesus
A man of love, and a man of strength
But what a man was two thousand years ago
means nothing at all to me today
He could have been telling me about my
higher self
But he only lives inside my prayer
So what he was may have been beautiful
But the pain is right now
And right here
Let it go!
Let it go!
Let it go, my friend
And let's get it back
Let's get it back together
slippery jack, no more turning back,
all around, morning humor
i am a waiter and i am a server
i'll run to your needs with strength and fervor
in times when you are wasted i will walk in
through the door, pick you from the floor
then watch you grow into a man
with a big burly beard
and a mustache to match
i'll watch you love the world
and all that it has...
with that morning humor,
morning humor
the kind that wakes you up
the kind that's in my blood
morning humor, morning humor, yeah...
i am on top again, soon to be low again
oh will this ever end?
i'm sorry i don't mean to sound like a whale
trapped in the ice, but ain't it nice to say exactly
what i please...
with a big toney voice or a
soft mellow voice or the
loud boisterous voice of an opera, opera lady!
with that morning humor,
morning humor
the kind that wakes you up.
the kind that's in my blood
morning humor, morning humor, yeah...
but the joke that kills
is just a joke to you
you need some...
slippery jack, no more turning back,
all around, morning humor
the kind that wakes you up
the kind that's in my blood...
I hope (I hope) she lights that candle
I hope (I hope) she shows me everything and all that light can bring
Her skin (her skin), it begs my worship
Like a mad temple crowd
I crush her, she goes down
We melt up from the ground?
Up to better times, sweet release, take me now, take me now
Up to better times, sweet release, take me now, take me now, yeah
Doubt (doubt), get right behind me
You're a cloud, just a blemish on the sun
And there's better times to come
Our love, this cloak and dagger
This silent will to brighten everything
And find the road that leads?
Up to better times, sweet release, take me now, take me now
Up to better times, sweet release, take me now, take me now, yeah,
Oh, and if we die tonight, take our leave from this plastic place
Become the dove, just fly away?
Up to better times, sweet release, take me now, take me now
Come on baby up to your better times
Your sweet release, take me now, take me now, oh
Oohh oooh
If I told you he was your brother
We could reminisce
Then you would go about your day
If I said you ought to give him some of your water
You'd shake your canteen and walk away
The perception that divides you from him
Is a lie
For some reason you never asked why
This is not a black and white world
You can't afford to believe in your side
This is not a black and white world
To be alive
I say that the colours must swirl
And I believe
That maybe today
We will all get to appreciate
The Beauty of Grey
If I told you she was your mother
We could analyze the situation and be gone
If I said you ought to give her
Some of your water
Your eyes would light up like the dawn
The perception that divides you from her
Is a lie
For some reason we never asked why
This is not a black and white world
You can't afford to believe in your side
This is not a black and white world
To be alive
I say the colors must swirl
And I believe
That maybe today
We will all get to appreciate
The beauty of gray
Look into your eyes
No daylight
War in me War overseas
There ain't no difference between
Blood in me
Blood overseas
There ain't no difference between
The chills in your spine are oh, so sweet
People honor you so high
You've got to defend the stage at your feet
Take, Take, Take my anthem today
Hands on me
Hands overseas
There ain't no difference between
Heart in me
Heart overseas
I talk of freedom
you talk of the flag
I talk of revolution
you'd much rather brag
and as the decibels of this disenchanting discourse
continue to dampen the day
the coin flips again and again, and again, and again
as our sanity walks away
all this discussion though politically correct
is dead beyond destruction
though it leaves me quite erect
and as the final sunset rolls behind the earth
and the clock is finally dead
I'll look at you, you'll look at me
and we'll cry a lot
but this will be what we said
this will be what we said
Anyone, caught in your mystery
Keep it angry, keep it whispy
I've fallen down, drunk on your juices
Turn my head
Turn my head
It's aimed at you
Funky temple, your dress is torn to shreds
Your eyes are crazy, I bowed to save my head and
I can't forget you, but I can't remember
Turn my head
Turn my head
It's aimed at you
Turn my head
Turn my head
It's aimed at you, baby, baby
Oh no, we came to love you all day
These bastards are leavin', somebody's got to stay
Whatever we called you, just a name, just a name
Turn my head
(Turn my head)
Turn my head
It's aimed at you, yeah, now
Turn my head
(Turn my head)
Turn my head
It's aimed at you
It's aimed at you
You say "Hold on to the reigns"
I say "Let them go tonight"
My brain waves
Confused between what is and ain't
She cries "Groundless and free"
Tired of the water Tired of the wine
Tired of the future
Tired of time
Tired of the madness
Tired of the steel
Tired of the violence
Tired of me
Used steel
Used steel am I
What was pliable in love
Is now hard and crystallized
The intellect is fine
For counting money
And recalling times
That she cried,
"Groundless and free"
Hope is a letter that never arrives
The way I'm on your mind, like a ball and chain
Like a destiny to run from
Division in your soul (in your soul), keepin' you from whole
I can bare to see you crying
The wing that lays on your shoulders
Could be the wings that carry you home
Sometimes you've got to die to be born again
Sometimes you've got to fight
Sometimes you've got to learn
Sometimes you've got to burn
The old brush out so the new can grow
The wing that lays on your shoulders
Could be the wings that carry you home
Yeah, come on
Could be the wings
Could be the wings (carry you home)
Could be the wings (oh)
Could be the wings (carry you home)
Like to long, lost friend?
Like to love, lost friend?
Like it too long, lost friend?
The wing that lays on your shoulders
Could be the wings that carry you home (carry you home)
Come on, come on
Could be the wings
Could be the wings (lord above)
Could be the wings (oh yeah)
Could be the wings (carry you home)
Could be the wings
Could be the wings (carry you home)
Could be the wings
i watched a miracle in the making
then had a scientist tell me that i
couldn't live without breaking,
my habits of fearlessness and crying for the world...
who put the fear in here?
was it you, who finally shed the tear?
someone told me that two lovers bound
could put another sun in the sky
if you believed it, there'd be
twice the light and no one would be scared to fly
if i believed it, there'd be
twice the light and no one would be scared to fly
i thought i knew exactly what scared me
and i would never have to run again.
so i went to sleep and began dreaming
of perfect lives in paradise
woke up and started screaming...
who put the fear in here?
who put the fear in here? oh no...
was it you who finally shed the tear?
this is not helping me at all
what you are doing here
in the name of god and love
it's the distribution of fear
pyramids, healing wires, analysts with fame
I haven't got your degree
and I forgot your name
pick me up and put me on the ground
set me up and spin me all around
no, you are not the one I wish to see
this is not helping me at all where did we get this plan?
that you could give to me what I might already have pyramids,
healing wires, a musician's fame
I volunteered you my eyes
in place of facing me
oh Hitler, in a robe of truth
my emptiness has built your altar
and I've worshipped myself in you forever
I wanted a mountain, you gave me a sea
I wanted a hurricane, you gave me a breeze
I wanted to run, made me stand there and breathe
I wanted to dream, you made me sleep
I wanted to touch the bottom, but it was too deep
I wanted a revolution, you said I was already free
Oh, yeah
Where do we go from here?
Now the day is gone
How do we face our fears
With nothing in our hearts, baby?
Where do we go from here?
Now the night has come
I wanted to touch your mind and your heart
I wanted to find a new place to start
I wanted to kiss your every part
Oh, yeah
So baby, don't leave me now as you turn to the flag
They get shot through the holes, but you're still alive
Like you're too close to death to ever really die
Oh, yeah
Where do we go from here?
Now the day is gone
How do we face our fears
With nothing in our hearts, baby?
Where do we go from here?
Now the night has come
How do we face our fears
With nothing in our hearts?
Nothing
Why won't you listen to me?
I never meant you no harm
I only wanted to be free
All I want is to be free
Where do we go from here?
Now the day is gone
How do we face our fears
With nothing in our hearts, baby?
Where do we go from here?
Now the night has come
How do we face our fears?
Oh, yeah
Where do we go?
Where do we go?
Where do we go?
Where do we go?
Where do we go?
I was wrong
we are not these bodies alone
in a dream with a mind of its own
I, I know you long
to be tethered and tied to the heart of the one
the one that be layin' you down
on that ancient ground
nothin' more to be found
ah yeah
now we walk in the dream
but dream no more
to live a life in love the only thing in common was
we knew there was somethin' more
now we walk in the dream
but dream no more
to live a life in love
to hear the voice in the wilderness
the other side of the door
somethin' more
i feel strong
i'm finally at peace
the war is all gone
by no cause of my own
like an eagle cuts through the air
no time for fear
faith in his wings takes him there
now we walk in the dream
but dream no more
to live a life in love the only thing in common was
we knew there was somethin' more
now we walk in the dream
but dream no more
to live a life in love
to hear the voice in the wilderness
the other side of the door
somethin' more!
more than these
women in the streets pullin' out their hair
somethin' more
somethin' more than all the pain we feel
somethin' more
more than we could dream of, all light
love-bliss, no death and no fear
no fear!!!
now we walk in the dream
but dream no more
to live a life in love the only thing in common was
we knew there was somethin' more
now we walk in the dream
but dream no more
to live a life in love
to hear the voice in the wilderness
the other side of the door
somethin' more
i was wrong
Two, three, four
All the things that they make you say
And all the love that you had, when
I'll pick you up and it'll be alright
I'll pick you up and it'll be tonight
She rode a horse into my head
She rode a horse into my head
Yeah
She won't discipline the children
And now they're runnin' wild on the beach
And I don't care
No, I don't care, no, I don't care
Yeah, yeah, yeah
It's the middle of the night again
Playing Domino's and drinkin' in bed
I tried to make up something deep to say
But my well is temp and dry today
Hey, hey, hey
She rode a horse into my head
She rode a horse into my head
Yeah
She won't discipline the children
And now they're running wild on the beach
And I don't care
No, I don't care, no, I don't care
Yeah hey
She rode a horse into my head
She rode a horse into my head
Yeah
She won't discipline the children, oh no,
But now they're running wild on the beach
And I don't care
in the east they can meditate they can recreate the sound of OM
and bring us home i think i'll go there someday maybe
for a holiday maybe just light a candle and take a seat for the ride
you don't need no money to fly to truly fly away you don't need no car
to truly ride to truly ride away
in the west we think we're the best we've shown the whole wide world
that money is all we care for now someday the scientists
will see there's no such thing as gravity they'll all just light a candle
take a seat for the ride
you don't need no money to fly to truly fly away you don't need no car to truly,
truly ride to truly ride away
as you ascend in silence all doubt behind thee you reach the summit
The way you're bathed in light
reminds me of that night
god laid me down into your rose garden of trust
and I was swept away
with nothin' left to say
some helpless fool
yeah I was lost in a swoon of peace
you're all I need to find
so when the time is right
come to me sweetly, come to me
come to me
love will lead us, alright
love will lead us, she will lead us
can you hear the dolphin's cry?
see the road rise up to meet us
it's in the air we breathe tonight
love will lead us, she will lead us
oh yeah, we meet again
it's like we never left
time in between was just a dream
did we leave this place?
this crazy fog surrounds me
you wrap your legs around me
all I can do to try and breathe
let me breathe so that I
so we can go together!
love will lead us, alright
love will lead us, she will lead us
can you hear the dolphin's cry?
see the road rise up to meet us
it's in the air we breathe tonight
love will lead us, she will lead us
life is like a shooting star
it don't matter who you are
if you only run for cover, it's just a waste of time
we are lost 'til we are found
this phoenix rises up from the ground
and all these wars are over
over
over
singin' la da da, da da da
over
come to me
singin' la da da da, da da da
let him come into the city
let him find his lucky penny
let him put it in his pocket and shake it all around
I've been to pretty buildings, all in search of you
I have lit all the candles, sat in all the pews
the desert had been done before, but I didn't even care
I got sand in both my shoes and scorpions in my hair
I saw that...
oh the distance is not do-able
in these bodies of clay my brother
oh the distance, it makes me uncomfortable
guess it's natural to feel this way
oh, let's hold out for somethin' sweeter
spread your wings and fly
my car became the church and I
the worshipper of silence there
in a moment peace came over me
and the one who was beatin' my heart appeared and....
oh the distance is not do-able
in these bodies of clay my brother
oh the distance, it makes me uncomfortable
guess it's natural to feel this way
oh, are we locked into these bodies?
let's hold out for somethin' sweeter
spread your wings and fly
oh, are we locked into these bodies?
are we anything at all?
let's hold out for somethin' sweeter
spread your wings and fly
this distance is dreamin'
Heard a lot of talk about the ocean
Heard a lot of talk about the sea
Heard a lot of talk about a lot of things
Never meant that much to me
Heard a lot of talk about my spirit
Heard a lot of talk about my soul
But I decided that anxiety and pain
Were better friends
So I let it go
Did you let it go?
Let's get it back
Let's get it back together
Heard a lot of talk about this Jesus
A man of love, and a man of strength
But what a man was two thousand years ago
means nothing at all to me today
He could have been telling me about my
higher self
But he only lives inside my prayer
So what he was may have been beautiful
But the pain is right now
And right here
Let it go!
Let it go!
Let it go, my friend
And let's get it back
Bring back that 'hair-down', unguarded mystery
I liked it better when your tightrope walked on me
Board up my window, prepare for a hurricane
You have a way of breaking through my barricade
You give me all-new games to play
You set me soul free
Now every word that she speaks to me is pure gold
She set my soul free
She give me love, give me hope, give me strength to bear my faults for you
Was my intention to take control again?
Somehow you got me on the ropes of my own plan
To turn up the volume and make you dance for me
Release some pressure so that I can turn and see
Spirit manifests as 'She'
You set me soul free (you set my soul free)
Now every word that she speaks to me is pure gold
She set my soul free (she set my soul free)
She give me love, give me hope, give me strength to bear my faults for you
Like a flower
I can see but I can't feel
Oh yeah
And nothing that you do could ever make me run, run away from you
I never knew, I never knew she could
She set my soul free
Now every word that she speaks to me is pure gold
She set my soul free (she set my soul free)
and to love: a god
and to fear: a flame
and to burn a crowd that has a name
and to right or wrong
and to meek or strong
it is known, just scream it from the wall
I've willed, I've walked, I've read
I've talked, I know, I know,
I've been here before
hey, now we won't be raped
hey, now we won't be scarred like that
it's the sun that burns
it's the wheel that turns
it's the way we sing that makes 'em dream
and to Christ: a cross
and to me: a chair
if i talk too soft, they
think i'm preaching if i talk too slow, they think i care.
if i walk too fast, then i've got purpose here.
can't you see, see through the prayer?
it's got you now, so i will play
it's got you now, so i will play, play,
saviour for a day
if you go too far, i'm not reaching.
don't care who you are, try and see.
i am here like there is sky and there is air
won't you see, see through the prayer
it's got you now, so i will play
it's got you now, so i will play, play,
saviour for a day
let me be your saviour...
don't you know, i so love you
don't you know, i so care
don't you know, don't you know, don't you know i so need you
don't you know, i so care
so let me be your saviour today!

see through it baby, see through it for me
saviour, saviour, saviour, saviour....
who put the fear in here?
i watched a man tell his boy
about the pains of reality
then i watched that child grow into a soldier
i am not ok with this tv in my face
and liar after liar with nothin' bout nothin' higher
i am on the outside peerin' in to your world
and all the boys and girls are singin' save me,
save me from the one who only rapes me
take away my tv don't want your fuckin' recipe it's all decay
decay decay not today
today today take away my tv
don't want your fuckin' therapy it's all decay
decay decay not today, not today
it's our world and i'm on fire with anger and desire
not the kind that they feed to me with their emptiness and greed greed greed
i don't give a fuck what you say about me everything you are
is just a tool to me so just set up the mic
and let me do my thing in the consciousness of each
and every sentient being rainin' down like a thunderstorm into your mind
maybe not the first, the second, or even the third time but eventually,
you won't be able to put me down you'll be havin' me with breakfast
"Looks like I've lost my will to carry on, my friend" she said
And you can hear it in my whispered cries for love
I need your blissful touch to carry me away again
So can we roll tonight, roll through your desert, can we start over and just...
Run away, run away tonight
It aint no victory, but I don't care, I don't care if its wrong or right
We can just run away, run away tonight
It aint no victory but I don't care, I don't care if its wrong or right
"Looks like I've lost my will to carry on, my friend" she said
I'm like a posse that's been ridin' for days
I've got the scars to prove that love has had its day and it's way with me
So can we roll tonight, roll through your desert, can we start over and just...
Run away, run away tonight
It aint no victory but I don't care, I don't care if its wrong or right
We can just run away, run away tonight
It aint no victory but I don't care, I don't care if its wrong or right
This ain't no night to be on your own
You've got to know where you're coming from
To know just where you're goin', lord
You've got to know where you're coming from
This ain't no night to be on your own
Run away, run away tonight
It aint no victory but I don't care, I don't care if its wrong or right
We can just run away, run away tonight
It aint no victory but I don't care
I don't care I don't care I don't care I don't care
Run away
Run away
warm bodies, I sense
are not machines that can only make money
past, perfect, tense
words for a feeling and all I've discovered
I'll be along son with medicine supposed to,
designed to make you high
I'll be along son
with words for a feeling and all I've discovered
old, bad eyes
old, bad eyes
old, bad eyes
on loneliness comes
go see the foreman, go see the profiteer
on loneliness drives
we're takin' our time movin' shit for this holy slime
old, bad eyes
old, bad eyes
old, bad eyes, almighty fear
the shepherd won't leave me alone
he's in my face and I
the shepherd of my days
and I want you here by my heart and my head,
I can't start till I'm dead
here I am locking horns with the stallion
failing to hold my head up, I'll go back again
pillar of davidson feeling to hard to go down
cheaper than all the souls he will walk upon
deeper and deeper in love so I hold my head up
cheaper than all the souls he will walk upon
in a dream i had you were standin all alone with a dyin' world below
and a microphone singin' hallejuhah i finally broke their mold
whatever its gonna take good luck, keep it real where (are) the boys in LIVE?
they're pissin' in the mainstream open up your cage focus
all your rage the world needs people like you
in a dream i had i was on a stage with queen michael stipe
and elton john bono and springsteen singin hallejuhah, rock and roll is king
whatever its gonna take good luck, keep it real where (are) the boys in LIVE?
they're pissin' in the mainstream open up your cage focus
all your rage the world needs people like you
people like you! people like you! motherfuckers like you! people like you!
in a dream i had you were standin all alone with a dyin' world below
and a microphone singin' hallejuhah i finally broke their mold
whatever its gonna take good luck, keep it real where (are) the boys in LIVE?
they're pissin' in the mainstream open up your cage focus
all your rage the world needs people like you
you seem like a girl who likes to tell her bed is made
you seem like a girl who likes to wear her pearls
well i'm not the type who likes to dwell,
save my money or kiss and tell, yeah
oh why does she water them, paper flowers?
this girl walks up so graciously,
slips something in my pocket so secretly,
i said: "honey, what's this you gave to me?"
"oh nothing, water, wait and see"
i said: "paper flowers, they can't grow!"
"just give'em water and let me know,
give'em water and let me know, give'em water
and let me know"
oh why does she water them, paper flowers?
paper flowers...
oh why does she water them, paper flowers?
paper flowers...
she's dressed in black as you can see,
she tries so damn hard to be the enemy,
she's got big black boots, get outta her way,
she wants to kick tomorrow, punch yesterday,
kick tomorrow, punch yesterday
oh why does she water them, paper flowers?
paper flowers...
turn a light on, turn a different light on
turn a light on, turn a different light on now
turn a light on, turn a different light on
turn a light on, turn a different light on now!
oh why does she water them, paper flowers?
I have never taken Life
Yet I have often paid the price
And you, you are a victim of this age
And the guilt that hangs around your neck
Has got me locked up in a cage
You've got to learn to live until no end
But first you must learn to swim
All over again
Because...
Pain lies on the riverside
And Pain will never say goodbye
Pain Lies on the Riverside
So put you feet in the water
Put your head in the water
Put your soul in the water
And join me for a swim tonight
I have forever, always tried
To stay clean and constantly baptized
I am aware that the river's banks are dry
And to wait for a flood
Is to wait for life
I've got to learn to live until no end
But first I must learn to swim all
Over again,
Because...
Suddenly she came
And like the come that comes and goes
With a sweetness in her eyes
And a ring between her nose
Walkin down the beach
We saw a castle made of pain
We went inside
Rings were exchanged
Now heaven wore a shirt
That said I
Really really really love you
I really really love you
Yeah yeah
Suddenly it came
Into my mind
Not preconceived
A dream of many oceans
But like the God
That I believe
But like the come that came and went
My mind just had to intercede
The need for repetition arose
Now heaven wears a shirt
That says I
Really really really got to have you yeah
I really really got to have you
I really really really really really got to have you
Oh yeah yeah yeah ah ah ah ah
I really really love you
I really really love you
I really really love you
I ay yeah
Suddenly she came
And like the come that comes and goes
With a sweetness in her eyes
And a ring between her nose
Walkin down the beach
We saw a castle made of pain
We went inside
Rings were exchanged
Now heaven wore a shirt
That said I really love you yeah ah
I really really really really love you
Yeah
Really
Really love you
Heaven wore a shirt that said
Heaven wore a shirt that said
Heaven wore a shirt that said
I really love you
I really love you
I really love you
Oh yeah ha ha
Heaven
Shirt
Wore
if i was half alive
then you were dead
subsistin' on that same old bread
it's the memory that hides
the whole wide world
it's the gas hed's love of america
it's the memory that hides
take your photographs back
for the love of all gods
our gas hed marches on
our gas hed marches on
he's a bonified man
a star amongst his clan
and the only one that let me ride
it's the memory that dies
our gas hed was right
when they lanced his skill
there was puss and light
it's the memory that dies
so take your photographs back
for the love of all gods
our gas hed marches on
our gas hed marches
it's the memory that dies
so take your photographs back
for the love of all gods
our gas hed marches on
our gas hed marches on
you got it bad
you got it good
you saw the sun
like you knew that you would
we gotta make this better
gotta make this right
ain't no peace in the valley baby
'til the darkness turns to light
can you hear that children's song?
can you take me to that place?
high above the lamentation up on the desert plane
do you hear that children's song?
can you take me there?
lost in the maya
overboard in the sea
there was void and then that water broke
then something called "me"
now a trip to the desert to look at the sky
it's like never-ending mirrors
playing tricks on my eyes
can you hear that children's song?
can you take me to that place?
high above the lamentation up on the desert plane
do you hear that children's song?
can you take me there?
the face and ghost my guide
i must move on
it's the face of one ravaged by love
it's both dead and alive
you got it bad lover
no you got it good
you saw the sun
like you knew that you would
in spite of my confusion
up above all my pain
I gotta death-grip on this vision
here we go again
the face and ghost my guide
i must move on
it's the face of one ravaged by love
it's both dead and alive
sha la la la la la la
sha la la la la la la
sha la la la la la la
can you hear them singin'?
can you hear them singin'?
can you hear that children's song?
can you take me to that place?
do you hear that pilgrim's song?
kill the lights
you and i
on the boat
hypnotized
i look at you,
you say to me
"i'm the lock, now
you're the key"
it's all the same
just play the game
carry the weight
of this ball and chain
save the lies
you and i
on the road to rationalize
you and i should never guess
you and i should never regret
it's all the same
just play the game
carry the weight
of this ball and chain
this ball and chain
He said, he said, he said
"There was nothing to fear boy"
And he said, he said, he said,
"Worthless are you tears boy"
"Just realize you senses
And realize you earth
Just realize your essence first"
I'll never be the same again
I want to walk in the sun
I am alive and well again
No more bittersweet
No more good pain
No more
So many of us stand in the middle
Looking back to the worst
Looking forward to the fall
Making weapons of peace for the defense
Of the bloodstains on our
Peaceful sidewalks
You say the buildings got too tall
And they're going to fry your brother
Well I say you'd better walk away, walk
Away, away, away
And find your mother
No more bittersweet
No more good paid
If I can't sing this song
And tell you all about it
Then I'll just pack it up right now and
walk away
Don't even doubt it
So when our sherry glass is full
And the day is way too young
You'd better sip today, sip today, sip today,
Before it's done
No more bittersweet
everybody's here
puke stinks like beer
this could be a city
this could be a graveyard
you stole my idea
you stole my idea
everybody's anxious
for the coming of the crisis
the collapse of the justice
i can smell your armpits
you stole my idea
you stole my idea
you stole my idea!
this puke stinks like beer and everybody's here
come on, come on, come on
let's lay waste to this century
come on, come on, come on
return to nothing, and help me
everybody's anxious
the crowd is all around us
the followers of Aldous
are spinning with their mescaline
a man behind the altar screams
you stole my idea
you stole my idea!
on the edge of a kiss, smack on the lips
dangled with tongue
on the edge of a peace that can't stand low
and won't stand tall
it's amazing what we can do with love
with some matches and gasoline, do with love!
