Never worked sad and slow,
Should have been that long ago,
I've been giving it,
Everything I've got.
We don't talk about it much,
It's still too difficult to touch,
Look me in the eye,
And say it's not.
Well I want some answers,
And I want to blame,
Cause the streets around my house,
They're just not the same.
And you, I promised in two thousand two,
That I'd give this off to you.
They say time, it heals things,
It hasn't yet and it still stings,
We're all wondering,
Where the hell you went.
Keeping my sunglasses on,
I'm tired of being asked what's wrong,
Learned the hard way,
About the permanent.
Well it's way too often,
We still break down,
From chasing your ghost,
All over town.
You, I promised in two thousand two,
That I'd give this off to you,
I promised in two thousand two,
The year is 2002
I'm doing exactly what I wanted to
Baby I don't even think about you anymore
Just thought I?d drop you a line
To let you know I was doing fine
'Cause baby it's been a long, long time
Since you walked out my door
It took me some time I must confess
For a while there I was feeling less than my best
Had get out of town so I headed out west
Ended up in Seattle
I thought I?d start a brand new band
Thought I might call it Lonelyland
Things got a little out of hand
Ended up hooked on heroin
So ended up moving back over to Germany
Living with the folks baggin' grocery
The time I had was mostly free
I spent most of it drinking
I got myself in a jam or two
Guess it's what I had to do
Late at night I?d still thinkin' you
Felt like I was drowning
I met this girl at a discotheque
She is a dancer, baby, but not what you'd expect
She taught ballet
And she was half-Czech, half Chinese
But after she decided not to have the baby
Said she might move back to the Mainland maybe
But then I didn't really care
I was half drunk, half crazy
Got arrested, but never convicted
Parents eventually had me evicted
Tried your number, it been disconnected
Guess I should've known
Heard you got married and you moved away
Called your folks but where they wouldn't say
Said it's probably better that way
So I just let it be
Moved back to Austin 'bout a year ago
Drive a school bus I don't drink no more
Go out every once in a while and see show
But mostly I just watch TV
So I don't know where I?m gonna send this letter
I doubt things are ever going to get much better
Seems like life's one big whatever
Anyway
Just thought I?d drop you a line
Lie and say I was doing fine
'Cause baby it's been a long, long time
Eine, dem Untergang geweihte
Insel gibt mich frei
Ich war der einzig hier Gefangene
Sie jagt mich fort ?
Sie wird das Ende nicht mit mir teilen an diesem Ort
An dem als Abenteurer ich strandete
Ein Schiff reißt mich eilig von ihr los
Dem Meer sinkt sie schlafend in den Schoß
Das, was ich war
So lang' als Sklave ich ihr diente
War es klar stets ein Schwert
Wonach ich trachtete
Was für ein Fluch
? Ich tötete wonach ich noch immer such'
Es war die Liebe die ich schlachtete
Dem Meer sinkt sie sterbend in den Schoß
Allein die Freiheit bringt mir keinen Trost
Einsam zurück
Lässt sie mich ohne auch nur einen Funken Glück
Dieser Aufbruch ist mein Abschiedslied
Ein Schiff reißt mich eilig von ihr los
Dem Meer sinkt sie schlafend in den Schoß
Little girl from Hindustan
Holds the world inside her hand
Poorer than a Delhi rat
Feeds the dolphins at the ghat
Factory ships and market share
Stocks and bonds and thinning hair
IMF and shanty towns
Your heroes hiding underground
Look he’s like a skeleton
Walking naked through Sudan
His children and his wife are dead
He’d like a bullet in his head
Why Do People Dislike Other People?
Some people don't like other people just because they look different.
I think that is silly.
I don't think that it is fair to judge someone by the way they look.
Some people look very nice, but they are mean or cruel.
Some people look very ordinary, but they are incredibly nice.
I remember when I was in grade one; I saw a girl across the room.
She had a mean look on her face.
I thought to myself that she was probably not a very nice person.
I stayed away from her, and played with the other children.
Then, we had to play a game, and the teacher said that she would pick partners for us.
The teacher picked the girl with the mean face as my partner.
I didn't think that the game would be much fun at all with a partner who seemed as mean
as that girl.
I walked up to her and said hello.
The girl's face changed.
She smiled at me, and she began to talk to me.
Her mean face disappeared.
We had lots of fun playing the game.
We laughed a lot and enjoyed each other's company.
That girl became my best friend.
Now when I look at her I see what is inside her.
Sometimes she doesn't smile, but I know what she is like.
She is a kind and funny person.
I have learned that you can't "judge a book by its cover."
It is not fair to dislike someone just because they don't look like you want them to look.
You have to get to know a person.
It doesn't matter to me what color a person's skin is.
It doesn't matter to me if they are short or tall, skinny or fat or happy or sad looking.
I judge people by how they treat me, and I try to treat people like I would want to be
