A Peshwa (Marathi: पेशवे) is the titular equivalent of a modern Prime Minister. Emperor Shivaji created the Peshwa designation in order to more effectively delegate administrative duties during the growth of the Maratha Empire. The word Peshwa has roots in the Persian language meaning 'foremost'. The Peshwas were all Brahmin ministers who initially started as the chief executives to the king. Prior to 1749, Peshwas held office for 8-9 years and controlled the Maratha army. They later became the de facto hereditary administrators of the Maratha Empire from 1749 till its end in 1818.
Under Peshwa administration and with the support of several key generals and diplomats (listed below), the Maratha Empire reached its zenith, ruling most of the Indian subcontinent landmass. It was also under the Peshwas that the Maratha Empire came to its end through its formal annexation into the British Empire by the British East India Company in 1818.
After the coronation of Shivaji in 1674, he appointed Moropant Trimbak Pingle as the first Peshwa. Shivaji renamed this designation as Pantpradhan in 1674 but this term is less commonly used. Today, the surname "Peshwe" (alternatively "Peshave") is found both among Konkanastha Brahmins (tracing decent to the Bhat clan, notably Bajirao I) and Deshastha Brahmins (tracing decent to Moropant Pingle, Sonopant Dabir and a certain clan from Jejuri, Pune), as well as some Maratha (Kshatriya) families of Vidarbha (by titulary heritage).
Nanasaheb Peshwa (b.8 Dec. 1721, d. 23 Jun. 1761), also known as Balaji Baji Rao, was the son of Bajirao from his marriage with Kashibai and one of the Peshwas of the Maratha Empire. He contributed heavily to the development of the city of Pune, India. He was appointed as Peshwa by Chattrapati Shahu himself. At time of his death in 1749, the issueless Shahu made the Peshwas the rulers of the Maratha Empire.
During his 20 year reign (1740 to 1761), Balaji Bajirao completely transformed Pune from a nagar into a vast city. He established many new neighbourhoods (called peths) like Nana Peth, etc. and developed few like Shaniwar Peth, Ravivar Peth, Somwar Peth, Budhwar Peth. He built the famous Parvati temple atop a hillock that overlooks the city and built the first permanent bridge across the river Mutha. (That bridge was made of wood, so the new concrete bridge that stands at the same location today is also called Lakdi Pool or 'the wooden bridge'). He also established a reservoir at the nearby town of Katraj to provide clean running water to the city. The 250 year old system is still functioning,
Mīrzā Ghulām Aḥmad (Arabic: ميرزا غلام أحمد; Urdu: مرزا غلام احمد; 13 February 1835 – 26 May 1908 CE, or Shawal 14, 1250 – Rabi' al-thani 24, 1326 AH) was a religious figure from India and the founder of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community.
He claimed to be the Mujaddid of the fourteenth Islamic century, the Promised Messiah (Second Coming of Christ), and the Mahdi awaited by the Muslims in the end days. He declared that Jesus (Isa) had in fact survived the crucifixion and later died a natural death after having migrated towards Kashmir, and that he had appeared in the spirit and power of Jesus.
He travelled extensively across the subcontinent of India preaching his religious ideas and ideals and won substantial following within his lifetime. He is known to have engaged in numerous debates and dialogues with the Muslim, Christian and Hindu priesthood and leadership. Ghulam Ahmad founded the Ahmadiyya Movement in Islam on 23 March 1889. The mission of the movement, according to him, was the propagation of Islam in its pristine form.
Shaikh Ghulam Ahmad (23 May 1923 – 20 September 2003) was a Pakistan Air Force engineer officer, fighter pilot and military engineer who formed Resources Company Limited, a holding company that promotes resource development in Pakistan. He was Managing Director and former chairman of Pakistan Chrome Mines Ltd., the largest and oldest chrome mining company in Pakistan.
He wrote Unique and Everliving, a biography of prophet Muhammad. The book was written over a period of five years. The book is published by Ferozeson's Ltd., a book publisher in Pakistan.
He was born in the city of Poonch, in Poonch District of Kashmir, on 23 May 1923. He was educated in Poonch at a school where his father, Shaikh Ghulam Rasul, was the headmaster. He migrated to Pakistan, from Kashmir along with his family. Before partition of India, his father was Head Master of High School in Poonch, while his younger brother Ghulam Rabani graduated in law from Aligarh University. Shaikh Ghulam Rabani, migrated to Pakistan and was appointed as a district court Judge. Later Shaikh Ghulam Rabani joined the Pakistan Foreign Service and served as Pakistans' Ambassador to numerous countries in Asia and North Africa including, Tunisia, North Korea and Romania. He married to Jamila Begum at Rehara, Azad Kashmir, Pakistan on 11 May 1949. He had three sons and two daughters, he received a B.Sc (honours) degree in Physics and a Masters in Statistics from the University of Punjab in Lahore. He received a Postgraduate Diploma in Natural Resource Development ITC, Delft, Holland and completed postgraduate studies for a Ph. D in Civil Engineering at Colorado State University, Fort Collins, Colorado.
I want you to remember
A love so full it could send us all ways
I want you to surrender
All my feelings rose today
And I want you to remain
The power of children can amaze
I'll try not to complain
I know that's a pisser baby
The chemicals between us
The walls that lie between us
Lying in this bed
The chemicals displaced
There is no lonlier place
Than lying in this bed
I want you to remember
Everything you said
Every driven word
Like a hammer, hell, to my head
The chemicals between us
There is no lonlier place
Then lying in this bed
The chemicals displaced
There is no lonlier place
Than lying in this bed
The chemicals between us
The chemicals between us
Lying in this bed
We're of the hollow men
We are the naked ones
We never meant you harm
Never meant you wrong
I'd like to thank
All of my lovers, lovers, lovers
The chemicals between us
The army of achievers
Lying in this bed
The chemicals displaced
There is no lonlier face
Than lying in this bed
The chemicals between us
The chemicals between us
The chemicals

Watch your back as life comes over you
Choose your weapon before you have to
You disappear in a sea of danger
If you're going, baby go faster
I've seen you dance
I've seen you dance through the radio
For gold again
You're going for gold again
All my life
I have waited for this moment
All my life, tonight
Tonight
Touch the sky because now we are weightless
Floating out into empty spaces
We are faceless, we are soldiers
We believe what you told us
I've seen you dance
I've seen you dance through the radio
All my life
I have waited for this moment
All my life, tonight
(Feelings don't die)

Speed kills coming down the mountain
Speed kills coming down the street
Speed kills with presence of mind and
Speed kills if you know what I mean
Got to feel - woke up inside again
Got to feel less broke more fixed
Got to feel when I got outside myself
Got to feel when I touched your lips
The things we do to the people that we love
The way we break if there's something we can't take
Destroy the world that we took so long to make
We expect her gone for some time
I wish her safe from harm
To find yourself in a foreign land
Another refugee outsider refugee
How's it feel she's coming up roses
How's it feel she's coming up sweet
How's it feel when it's all in spite of you
How's it feel when she's out of your reach
The things we do to the people that we love
The way we break if there's something in the way
Destroy the world that we took so long to make
We expect her gone for some time
I wish her safe from harm
To find yourself in a foreign land
Another refugee outsider refugee
What happened to you
the devil you know
is back here again
the devil is stoned
he's making friends
we move
we break
the sun with shade
you come
we go
we're fast
we're slow
blood on your dress
hole in your sky
blanket is gone
permanent night
we're glued
we break
we all
dilate
we please
we pain
again
she checks her head
she's in the smoke
figuring which way to turn
now she's got a rope
we need solutions
a brave megaphone
we need solutions
a brave megaphone
she's broken your shoes
you look like winter
you're all in a bruise
handful of splinters
we brood
we flake
we torch
we take
rebound

i could be wrong
i could be right
do you think we'll make it
out of here alive
we need solutions
a brave megaphone
we need solutions
we got a common home

Mind strong, Body strong
Try to find equilibrium
Head straight, screwed on
Been screwed up for too long
I don’t want to lean on the waves
I watch the storm evaporate
I think of you in starry skies
I keep you so alive
Let’s walk through the fire together
Disappear in the golden sands
It’s all in your face
I see you break
It’s like the sound of winter
The bleeding love, the silent escape
You’ve got to hang on to yourself
It’s like the sound of winter
Medusa smiles, Judas lips
Open arms and finger tips
Love bites and recompense
I’ll be with you until the end
Let’s walk through the fire together
Disappear in the golden sands
It’s all in your face
I see you break
It’s like the sound of winter
The bleeding love, the silent escape
You’ve got to hang on to yourself
It’s all in your face
I see you break
It’s like the sound of winter
The bleeding love, the silent escape
You’ve got to hang on to yourself

The bleeding love, the silent escape
You’ve got to hang on to yourself
It’s like the sound of winter
It’s like the sound of winter
Hang on to yourself
We got the soul, we got the honey
Stay alive we keep on running
House is on fire we're petrol stained
We stay on the move we ahead of the flames
We are the new accelerators
Faster we go before they make us
Maybe we did maybe we don't
Let's see your face as you throw the stone
I am a fugitive on the run
I carry the weight of what I've done
Those born of sweat
Through eyes of love
Bring more light
Than 5000 hurts
It's not where you're from where you go
And what you believe is more than you know
Open your head open your head
Hold me close as we jump off the edge
I am a fugitive on the run
I carry the weight of what I've done
So don't carry the weight
Don't carry the weight
Don't carry the weight
Don't carry the weight, weight, weight
You can't change the world
But you can change what's to come
You can't change the world
But you can change what's to come
I am a fugitive on the run
I carry the weight of what I've done
So don't carry the weight
Don't carry the weight
Don't carry the weight
Don't carry the weight, weight, weight
Weight, weight, weight, weight
love and hate get it wrong
she cut me right back down to size
sleep the day let it fade
who was there to take your place
no one knows never will
mostly me but mostly you
what do you say do you do
when it all comes down
I don't want to come back down
from this cloud
it's taken me all this time
to find out what I need
I don't want to come back down
from this cloud
it's taken me all this
all this time
there is no blame only shame
when you beg you just complain
more I come more I try
all police are paranoid
so am I so's the future
so are you be a creature
what do you say do you do
when it all comes down
I don't want to come back down
from this cloud
it's taken me all this time
to find out what I need
I don't want to come back down
from this cloud
it's taken me all this
Do you feel the way you hate?
Do you hate the way you feel?
Always closer to the flame
Ever closer to the blade, yeah
I am poison crazy lush
Built these hands to lift me up
And we are servants of our
Formulaic ways
I'm screaming daisies
From fourteen miles away
I've got my own time
Got it all today
Make up your mind
Need some help
Find this mind, mind, mind
Limbo this and limbo that
You were this and you were that
Ever know that what you fear
Is what you find
This Indian summer
I signed my life away
There's a greedy fly in here
And I fly away
Make up your mind
Need some help
Find this mind, mind, mind
Make up your mind
Need some help
Find this mind, mind, mind
Mind, mind, mind, mind
Make up your mind
Need some help
Find this mind, mind, mind
Mind
Mind
Mind
i never thought i'd get away
cause all there is is fading fast today
maybe you sleep well in your head
bring on the night let the cold moon burn
instead
cause i'm gonna find my way to the sun
if i destroy myself
swallowing habits die real hard
and the coat she wore could not conceal
the scars
beneath the magic of her lace
are a thousand lonely faces she can't
place
cos i'm gonna find my way to the sun
if i destroy myself
i can shine on
i'm gonna find my way to the sun
when i destroy myself
i can shine on
shine
sooner or later maturbate or lose
stationary west way running from the view
in true the self destructive veins
we have found a way to keep the gifts that
maims
cause i'm gonna find my way to the sun
if i destroy myself i can move on
i'm gonna find my way to the sun
if i destroy myself i can shine on
shine
i'm gonna find my way to the sun
if i destroy myself i can shine on

iron lung i know you well
deal with you like a bad spell
see the trail moon burns
red strip and vicadin
you were the only one
you're the censor
you'll never people me
i'm not defenseless
in the afternoon as the light dims
build a life out of all this semtex
you're the brightest one
you were the centre
the perfect opposite of what you asked for
it's not just one way
a negative factor
with all these wasps out
i'd better take cover
copper tongue beam me up
lonely without my impediments
start to save what we used to steal
walking on gelatin
i never noticed you
you were the brightest one
you were wide of me
just like the english sun
you caught the light again
in a perfect way
the biggest threat of all
is in the alleyway
you're the demon seed
you're the factor
feel better with a little bit of plaster
it's not just one way
a negative factor
with all these wasps out
better take cover
there's all the pain
in the way she talks
all the pain in the way she walks
all the pain in her wave goodbye
all the pain in the way she smiles
all the pain in her fatal charm
Speed ills coming down the mountain

I got to feel this broke or fix
I got to feel, I got outside myself
I got to feel when I touch your lips
The things we do to the people that we love
The way we brake is it something we can't take
Destroy the world that we took so long to make
We expect to come for some time
I wish us safe from home
To find yourself, in a foreign land
Another refugee, outside a refugee
How's it feel she's coming up roses
How's it feel she's coming up sweet
How's it feel it's all in spite of you
How's it feel when she's out of your reach
What happened to you

The things we do to the people that we love
(repeat)
what makes it go round the way we're up and down
we're minutiae staring at the whole sky
battle sense to keep you apprehensive
i guess no one is the same
we're all through different lenses
the bladder will filter all the pain
and the gut has sides you can't restrain
you are everything to me
you are cobalt elemental
a new lagoon five years down the line
and all i want is a lot of your time
these days when the clouds come in
heat broke no smoke without a fire
heat broke no smoke
infractions of the landscape

Don't wanna lose the time
Lose the time to come
Whatever you say it's alright
Whatever you do it's all good
Whatever you say it's alright
Silence is not the way
We need to talk about it
If heaven is on the way
If heaven is on the way
You in the sea
On a decline
Breaking the waves
Watching the lights go down
Letting the cables sleep
Whatever you say it's alright
Whatever you do it's all good
Whatever you say it's alright
Silence is not the way
We need to talk about it
If heaven is on the way
We'll wrap the world around it
If heaven is on the way
If heaven is on the way
I'm a stranger in this town
I'm a stranger in this town
If heaven is on the way
If heaven is on the way
I'm a stranger in this town
The Eagles cover)
On a dark desert highway
Cool wind in my hair
Warm smell of colitas
Rising up through the air
Up ahead in the distance
I saw a shimmering light
My head grew heavy, and my sight grew dim
I had to stop for the night
There she stood in the doorway
I heard the mission bell
And I was thinking to myself
This could be Heaven or this could be Hell
Then she lit up a candle
And she showed me the way
There were voices down the corridor
I thought I heard them say
Welcome to the Hotel California
Such a lovely place
Such a lovely face
Plenty of room at the Hotel California
Any time of year
You can find it here
Her mind is Tiffany twisted
She's got the Mercedes Benz
She's got a lot of pretty, pretty boys
That she calls friends
How they dance in the courtyard
Sweet summer sweat
Some dance to remember
Some dance to forget
So I called up the Captain
Please bring me my wine
He said
We haven't had that spirit here since 1969
And still those voices are calling from far away
Wake you up in the middle of the night
Just to hear them say
Welcome to the Hotel California
Such a lovely Place
Such a lovely face
They're livin' it up at the Hotel California
What a nice surprise
Bring your alibies
Mirrors on the ceiling
Pink champagne on ice
And she said
We are all just prisoners here
Of our own device
And in the master's chambers
They gathered for the feast
They stab it with their steely knives
But they just can't kill the beast
Last thing I remember
I was running for the door
I had to find the passage back to the place I was before
Relax said the nightman
We are programed to recieve
You can check out any time you like
i stand around at american weddings
i stand around for family
at my best when i'm terrorist inside
at my best when it's all me
i was there when they took all the people
i was alone in a mental revine
you breathe life when you break the walls down
you breathe life when you set me free
where is my head
where are my bones
why are my days so far from home?
where is my head
where are my bones
can you save me from myself?
free thinking renegade social
missed the moon, the man and now
in a slip stream of my poseferities?

no words to calm me down

won't come to hunt you out

why are my days so far from home?
ghost man

at my best when it's all me
ghost man
how come we get so lost
Help me sometimes, I need that much
Don't you think it's strange
How we can turn to dust
Think it's strange, like really strained
We'll never run when we've got all these broken bones
It's so hard to let you go
It's so hard to let you go
I will make you change your mind
I will make you change your mind
I think of me sometimes, I'd never tell
Do you recognize me, think that you know me well
I think you're changing, configurating
Destroyed the lines that fed the goods to your heart
It's so hard to let you go
It's so hard to let you go
Run with the hunted (as you come)
Run with the hunted
I will make you change your mind
I will make you change your mind
It's so hard to let you go
It's so hard to let you go (run with the hunted)
As you come
I will make you change your mind
it's a beautiful world
everyone's insane
either you swim
either you fade
it's a revolution time
we're sleepin' at the wheel
apocalypse child
in a nuclear field
we wanna change the world
but not what holds us back
i wanna be for you
and i never have
all of this time
i'm just tryin' to reach you
through the rain traffic
as we float into space
your wide eyes
hide your face
as we float inbetween
i am with you
if you bleed
we back up to the waves
this is the truth of days (!?!)
when i am with you
i feel a little brave
the madness and the wars
the circles that we run
confusion is in for (!?!)
what we have become
all of this time
i was just trying to reach you
through the rain traffic
as we float into space
your wide eyes
hide your face
as we float inbetween
i'd die with you
if you bleed
as we float
as we float into space
your wide eyes
hide your face
as we float inbetween
i'd die with you
if you bleed
as we float
i'd die with you
i'd die with you
hush child lay your sweet lips on me
this greed bigger than you and me
will you come again
body
tongue tied and a visceral third degree
feel warm center of gravity
wash us all away
body never lies
will you come again
will we stay friends
oh you paralyze
there are times when I wish
that I was you
thick skinned cities you drive me through
better than me you're a women
seven days and my system is free again
we rise lose it on obvious
falling away sorry for the way
your child is on fire
lick these my ruby lips
drop your protein pills
better just to lose yourself
we kiss we kiss we kiss
pretty words could never say
gave my love 2 thousand yesterdays
nothing is wrong
i am always a little late
probably will probably won't
get this disease cut out of my throat
all of a sudden
you come my way
baby believer i won't be saved by morning
after struggling my name slave turned to
master
history moans
mouth of father
edge of my bed
benzedrine telephone
struggling to speak
sicker than the sickest dog
falling faster than a liar's grin
we need to be saved from the shit we're in
i believe in you i have found the perfect
to bring me down i won't be saved
by all your yesterdays piss on my grave
piss on the the underlay
history moans
mouth of our father
I stand around at American weddings I stand around for family
At my best when I'm terrorist inside at my best when it's all me
I was there when they took all the people
I was alone in a mental ravine
You breathe life when you break the walls down
You breathe life when you set me free
Where is my head where are my bones
Why are my days so far from home
Ghostman - where is my head - where are my bones
Can you save me from myself
Free-thinking renegade social Mr. Moon Man now
Out the slipstream of my possibilities got the boat so we don't drown
These are the days that I'm split down the middle
No words to calm me down
Be sure that what you dream of won't come to hunt you out
Where is my head where are my bones
Why are my days so far from home
Ghostman How come we get so lost
Ghostman
Save me from myself
Caressing the marble and stone (2 times)
Love is a special form
Were wasting the feeling I feel
I wish you were here with me now (2 times)
Boiling all curls and eyes
Past is the awful and the light
More like a dark ride (feel)
I wish you were here with me now (2 times)
And I wish your arms were here waiting
God stretches time and it grays
Someday we will die in your dreams
I wish you were here with me now (4 times)
And I wish your arms were here waiting
God stretches time and it grays
Someday we will die in your dreams
I wish you were here with me now (2 times)
Caressing the marble and stone (2 times)
Love is a special form
Were wasting the feeling I feel
Childhood living is easy to do
The things you wanted I brought them for you
Graceless lady you know who I am
You know I can't let you slide through my hands
Wild horses couldn't drag me a way
Wild wild horses couldn't drag me a way
I watched you suffer a dull aching pain
Now you've decided to show me the same
Wild horses couldnt drag me away
Wild wild wild horses couldnt drag me away
I know I've dreamed you a sin and a lie
I have my freedom but I don't have much time
Faith has been broken, tears must be cried
Let's do some living, and after we'll die
Wild horses couldn't drag me away
Wild wild wild horses we will ride them some day.
Watching, waiting, falling, breathing
Gaping, wasted, sickly, feelin'
Winds keep come my way
I have less to say
I'm waiting here (3 times)
Solomon breaks my head
Kicks me so far down my street
I am struggling with this time
I am struggling on my feet
We go down (2 times)
There is no down
Down
There is no down
We do without
There is no (3 times)
More down
No more down (3 times)
Oh
Solomon waits by the wall
Spiting from his eyes
Said his life's become my fault
Twisted back life
Might as well get saved by someone
You're gonna get saved all
I am grateful for the acknowledgement
I am guilty of it all
We go down (2 times)
There is no down (2 times)
We do without
There is no (3 times)
More down
Down
Might as well get save someone
Might as well get saved by someone
There is no down
We do without
There is no all the way
All the way
No longer same, no longer human
You're everything that I need
And you pray for rain just to make it sunny
It's bad enough you can see
We miss you
We miss you
Who's power crazy
Who's hungry for honey
Who put a hole and taken less
I
I don't know why I must love money
I love you better when there's nobody else
Nothin to hold me, to hold me back
She turns around and give it right back
Am I always gonna be this blind
Am I always gonna be this...

Infested and polluted
50 tons of mercury dumped in the bay
It's bleeding there's no proof
That's no way to treat a good friend
Your whiskey talks louder
Than most things I've read you said
In artu, in place now
Site back unwind and relax
Big cheese is all greed
It's all relative what you need
Happy birthday
Happy birthday
Happy birthday here's your nerve gas
All the fishermen and their families
All sickly crumbling cerebellum
It's all over for urang-a-tang
Looks like they're back on the street again
Mistrusted, disrupted
Rape land and kill good habit
World weary, world broken
Well spent and money, money, money, money Injected, transmitted
So tons of mercury dumped in the bay
It's breathing-It's put the dog back in the basket
All the fisherman and their families
All sickly growing sentimental
It's all over for urang-a-tang
Looks like their back on the street again
All the fishermen and their families
It's all over for urang-a-tangs
Looks like they're back on the street again
It's all over for urang-a-tangs
Looks like, looks like, looks like
Invaded, downgraded
Your bile lands right on my head
Uncalled for, unwanted
My sinking zero tolerance
All the fisherman and their families
All sickly crumbling cerebellum
It's all over for urang-a-tangs
Looks like they're back on the street again
All the fishermen and their families
It's all over for urang-a-tangs
Looks like they're back on the street again
It's all over for the urang-a-tang
Looks like it's a street again
They're polishing the government
Resembles a last waltz
We are the playthings
We are the form
Soon it may come
Since we can rise
Too long since I've seen you
We move like satellites
My future lies
In space travel
She's coming over me
They're burning the tenements
Topless progressive thinking
Political holes
Got six but pray for seven
My future lies
In space travel
She's coming over me
I employ spies
To stroll the gravel
They never want to leave
The future lies
The future lies
Scared of the government scared of the government
The future lies
In space travel
There's someone after me
I employ spies
In silver tassels
The never seem that pleased
The future lies
The future lies (space)
The future lies
The future lies (space)
The future lies
The future lies (space travel)
The future lies (space travel)
They're polishing the government
Resembles a last waltz
We are the playthings

Living in a cage
Washing in a birdbath
Sinking in a fish bowl
On a broken farm
I try to never lie
I really do
I wonder if my friends
Will get me through
Conscious of the was as best we can
17 ways to kill a man
States we've been through
Killing nostalgia
For future swims
Trash all your bridges
Kill the rock all roll thing
I want to move on
With no complains
Building our walls with yesterday
Might as well shine before you slide
Might as well you live before you die
States we've been through
Talk about states
A whole lot of emptiness
Living in a state of constant chasing
A river of flux for our tasting
I try to never lie
I really do
I wonder if my friends will get me through
It always seems to rain
When you leave
I try to stem the flow
As we bleed
States we've been through
Talk about states, states
you only call me when you're down
Whatever she wants from me
Whatever device
Whether in kindness
Whether in spite
What can I say
What can I do I can't help myself
I let the monster through
Wherever she sends me
Wherever the plane
Perfect black dress
Perfect grave
What can I say
What can I do
I did it to myself
I did it all confused
Jesus online
Wires around the world
Feel invincible
Computer car and girl
Jesus online
Wires around the world
Feel invincible
To be perfect just like you
World news, world news
Well you said let's be free
Well you said I'll be me
Death row hearts are hard to mend
Why shoot myself for your sins
All my love, all my love
All my love, all my love
Well you said retribute
Well you said substitute
Burn myself on your bed
Your crown of thorns my crown of lead
I'll wake up before I drown
I'll wake up before I drown
All my love, all my love (let's me free)
All my love, all my love (let's me free)
All my love, all my love
All my love, all my love
We'll hang ourselves by the English fire
We'll hang ourselves
All my love, all my love
All my love, all my love (let's me free)
All my love, all my love (let's me free)
All my love, all my love
I'll wake up before I drown
All my love (let's me free)
All my love
There is nowhere left to hide
There is nothing to be done
No people to be saved
No pets we've never names
40 miles from the sun
As darkness craves the mind
We come undone without our pride
No time on the earth to come
All the pleasures just begun
40 miles from the sun
In our coats beneath the layers
Wash my skin of all the hate
We should sleep late
Everything just kind of grates
40 miles from the sun
40 miles from the sun
40 miles from the sun
I need to lose to make it right
I'll confront the stars tonight
I will babble I will bite
You will never know how much you shine
40 miles from the sun
40 miles from the sun
wanted to buy you shiny red things
thought I'd be with you until the end
how did I know that I would be there
blow me away
see if I care
death of a future
goodbye to my friends
wish I could see you all again
family hollow
family real
wish you were here see how I feel
kill a man
kill a girl
kill a man
kill a girl
jekyll in you
brins out the wired in me
I have no defense
I'm all that you see
the night is a bomb blast
the night is on fire
sing with me in the gasoline choir
and you say you want to change our minds
I've paid for your belief with mine
of all the bravest stands in ti;me
strange zoo, strange blaze douse my head in flames coming through got to get some happiness is a bad son forceps
kitchen tools deconstruct your every move feels better when you're here guillotine just got here back bend, back
break please yourself to make it rate live it all at your own cost so many just got lost leaning for fire leaning to fire
leaning to fire here's tomorrow man best of my ability chasing what I can here's tomorrow man instinct, bare boned
light it up, take it home you will be all things you'll get what you bring leaning to fire leaning to fire leaning to fire
here's tomorrow man best of my ability chasing watercans here's tomorrow man best of my civility with your own
tongue here's tomorrow man
well the satellite comes and goes
we give each other all we know
in silence we still talk
by the light of the stereo waltz
and will you rain down
in your cinematic love truck
I want to hold you like nothing's going to stop us
she come to take me away
its all that I needed
I don't breathe another lover
flicker on a T.V. screen
everything's more than it seems
the mighty backward fall
stare at the lights on the wall
I swear to this
she felt like velvet
second blond child she meant it
she come to take me away
its all that I needed
I don't breathe another lover
I'm an alien
you're an alien
it's a beautiful rain
beautiful rain
I'm a man
I'm real proud of my manhood
I like to smoke
ten thousand cigarettes
eight ball
I could climb any fountain
I never cry
I only bawl when I'm losing
and I've never been wrong
never been wrong
I'm looking so good
looking so good
got a big gold gun
got a big gold bullet
and I guess you could say
I'm real full of it
I'm real full of it
I'm real straight
you wanna see my peccadillos
hot dog 7:30 every morning
big into war
big into war
I am a whore
I am a whore
got a big gold gun
I shave with Gillette
shave with Gillette
and I'm patting my back
patting my back
