The Po (Latin: Padus and Eridanus, Italian: Po Italian pronunciation: [ˈpɔ], ancient Ligurian: Bodincus or Bodencus, Greek: Πάδος and Ἠριδανός) is a river that flows either 652 km (405 mi) or 682 km (424 mi) – considering the length of the Maira, a right bank tributary – eastward across northern Italy, from a spring seeping from a stony hillside at Pian del Re, a flat place at the head of the Val Po under the northwest face of Monviso (in the Cottian Alps) through a delta projecting into the Adriatic Sea near Venice. It has a drainage area of 74,000 km² in all, 70,000 in Italy, of which 41,000 is in montane environments and 29,000 on the plain. The Po is the longest river in Italy; at its widest point its width is 503 m (1,650 ft). The Po extends along the 45th parallel north.
The river flows through many important Italian cities, including Turin (Torino), Piacenza and Ferrara. It is connected to Milan through a net of channels called navigli, which Leonardo da Vinci helped design. Near the end of its course, it creates a wide delta (with hundreds of small channels and five main ones, called Po di Maestra, Po della Pila, Po delle Tolle, Po di Gnocca and Po di Goro) at the southern part of which is Comacchio, an area famous for eels. The Po valley was the territory of the Roman Cisalpine Gaul, divided in Cispadane Gaul (South of the Po) and Transpadane Gaul (North of the Po).
When I hold you I am just trying to feel
That thing inside of you that I once thought was real
To see that light I thought I saw, but it was never there
at all
I put these things in you I wanted to believe
But they aren't real it seems I made them in my dreams
I see allusions of the things I wanted you to be
And I see faces in the darkness, I hear voices in the air
I see shadows all around me, but no one's there
No one's there
I see faces, I see faces
You are speaking, but your're lips don't match the words
Are these just voices in my head?
I want someone one to love so badly I don't know what is
real, anymore
And I see faces in the darkness I hear voices in the air
I see shadows all around me, but no one's there
No one's there
I see faces, I see faces
I see faces in the darkness, I hear voices in the air
I see shadows all around me, but one's there, no one's
I climbed up a mountain, and looked off the edge
And all of the lies that I never have led
Is one where I stayed with you, accross the sea
I wonder do you still think of me
I carry your image always in my head
Folded and yellowed and torn at the edge
And i've look upon it for so many years
Slowy im loosing your face
Oh the ocean rows us away, away, away
The ocean rows us away
Sixs and sevens we live on jet planes
And so many faces I don't know the names
So many friends now and none of them mine
Forgotten as soon as we meet
All of these moments are lost in time
Your caught on my head like a thorn on a vine
But to hurt but to mend me that I wonder why
Do I wish i've never known you at all
Oh the ocean rows us away, away, away
The ocean rows us away
Oh the ocean rows us away, away, away
The ocean rows us away
The sun and the moon
An ocean of air
So many voices
But nothing is there
The ghost of you asking me why
Why did I leave
Oh the ocean rows us away, away, away
The ocean rows us away
Oh the ocean rows us away away away
Downtown in the shade
Staring at the sunshine in my face
Telling me to come and hide, come and play
I'm telling you the sun never goes away
And all i do is talk, talk, talk all day
I'm laughing my life away
I'm staring at the sun again
Till everything's fading
It's like a swollen summer
What if I'm getting dumber?
What if I'm in denial?
What if they come and cop my style?
Downtown in the clear
All I know is nothing ever changes here
And I know there's no excuse and no defense
But my summertime never ends.
It's like a swollen summer
What if I'm getting dumber?
What if I'm in denial?
What if they come and cop my style?
It's like a swollen summer
What if I'm getting dumber?
What if I'm in denial?
What if they come and cop my style?
Swollen summer
Swollen summer
Swollen summer
Come, come like sugar my love
Until the bitter taste is gone
These images then burn my eyes
Like the thumbprints of the sun
Come, come everything to please me
Candy canes on parade
Lay me in the sun till every trace is gone
I am bleached away, bleached away
Oh sugar pill I believe you
Oh sugar pill I wanna eat you up up up up
[ The Bravery Lyrics are found on www.songlyrics.com ] Now I am blissed out
I have kaleidoscope eyes
I'm light as cotton
I am wide as the sky
This is where my thoughts come to die
And I am happy
Oh sugar pill I believe you
I saw Jacob, he lay in the street
He said the air out here is like amphetamine
And I never ever wanna sleep again
I wanna live 'till I die
They took all his money and all that he had
But he smiled with his eyes
and his face was blood red
And spit would run from his mouth when he said
I wanna live 'till I die
'Cause I am alive and there's blood in my arms
This is a day that is brighter than bombs
This is a day that is brighter than bombs
I will live 'till I die
'Till I die
There's more inside of me than skin and bones
There's more inside of me than skin and bones
I am born again today and
all my sins are washed away
There's more inside of me than skin and bones
Jacob sat on the roof and he said
Some day the earth will cast out its dead
If you dwell in the dust then wake up and sing
I will live 'till I die
Jacob smiled when he said to me
I am not waiting on the Red Sea
To open up and rain pearls on me
I will live 'till I die
'Till I die
There's more inside of me than skin and bones
There's more inside of me than skin and bones
I am born again today
and all my sins are washed away
There's more inside of me than skin and bones
As long as I live and there's blood in my arms
This is a day that is brighter than bombs
This is a day that is brighter than bombs
This is a day that is brighter than bombs
There's more inside of me than skin and bones
There's more inside of me than skin and bones
I am born again today
and all my sins are washed away
Burn, burn the house on fire
I'm so sick and tired
I can still remember your sound
It's cut, cut, cutting me down
I'm locked and loaded
You're so milk and roses
And I am just a letdown of your hound
It's cut, cut, cutting me down
Like slow poison
Cut down, slow poison
Save me one more hymnal
I have found my angel
Ah, ah, oh, she walks upon the ground
It's cut, cut, cutting me down
On an empty can
I'm a stranger in a strange, strange land
Gone, gone, just gone without a sound
It's cut, cut, cutting me down
Like slow poison
Cut down like slow poison
And all my dreams are only dreams
And all my schemes are only schemes
And if this is my punishment
Then I want my card to fit
Burn, burn the house on fire
I'm so sick and tired
I can still remember your sound
It is cut, cut, cutting me down
Like slow poison
Cut down like slow poison
It's cutting me like slow poison
Save me one more hymnal
I have found my angel
Ah, ah, oh, she walks upon the ground
Ain't a soul who's seen
A loser like me
it was she, it was she
She put the devil in me
Wasn't me, wasn't me
I don't have it in me
(That remains to be seen)
Girls like you
Don't need a thing
Cause girls like you
Hate everything
You're gonna kill me
When you hear this song
Does she still love me
Or was I wrong
(I'm losin' track, please take me back)
She's so bendable
She's so bendable
She's so bendable
Bleed in your own light
Dream of your own life
I miss me
I miss everything Ill never be
I torch my soul to show
The world that I am pure
Deep inside my heart
No more lies
A crown of thorns
An image formed deformed
The mark Ive borne
A mark of scorn to you
Consume my love devoure my hate
Only powers my escape
The moon is out the stars invite
I think Ill leave tonight
So that soon Ill find myself alone
To relax and fade away
Do you know whats coming down
Do you know I couldnt stay free?
I shall be free
I shall be free
I shall be free
I shall be free free
Free as the voices
Its all I need
I shall be free
You’re the women who made me a man
I was down you taught me to stand
I was made up of nothing
You put something inside
You opened my chest
And put that hurt in my eyes
Now I’ve got pain that I can turn to
When I wonder if I’m still alive
I was dead in the water
That left me dead in the water
I was made of nothing
You put your hands on my heart
Stained your fingers inside me
And you took me apart
You’re the woman who made me who I am
She could be found out dancin'
At ludlow st. and stanton
Oh you should've seen her
Shake it up like orangina
And even though she's a liar
We got on like a house on fire
Even though she's my friend
We never knew when to say when
Every little move she made was a ticker tape parade
And everything she'd say was a national holiday
And even though she's a liar
No one ever got me higher
And even though she's my friend
We never knew when to say when
With red hands and white knuckles
I tried to hold on, I tried to hold on
With red hands and white knuckles
I tried to hold on, I tried to hold on
She was at thompskin square
Staring at the grass
Trying to make her eyes turn green
But it never last
[ The Bravery Lyrics are found on www.songlyrics.com ] And even though she's a liar
No one ever got me higher
Cuz we never knew when to say when
Even though she was my friend
With red hands and white knuckles
I tried to hold on, I tried to hold on
With red hands and white knuckles
I tried to hold on, I tried to hold on
Over on 5th and C
She got her beers for free
And every time I came in there
She always laughed at me
She said, "why's this child in here?"
You look like you teach math
Your appled eyes betray
You've never known loneliness
With red hands and white knuckles
I tried to hold on, I tried to hold on
With red hands and white knuckles
All this time I should have known
One of these days you'd follow me home
Mess up my room and proceed to tempt me
And no matter how good I am you learn to resent me
Stop, drop and roll
Stop, drop and roll
Stop, drop and roll
You're on fire
I'm stingy with words
All binge, no purge
You put the broke in broken hearted
After tonight
Who knows where we'll be tomorrow
What if we're never here again?
After tonight
This will be a lifetime ago
So let's stay up until the sky bleeds red
And we'll stop, stop, stop the world from moving
Stop, stop, stop the clocks from turning
Stop this night from fading away
This time is ours
If I could hold this moment in my hands
I'd stop the world from moving
I'd stop the clocks from turning
This time is ours
Inside a frozen memory of us
And we are motionless, motionless
Gone like a dream
That I have just awoken from
Fading away, just out of reach
And we are here
But I already miss you
Even as you're lying next to me
We're stop, stop, stop the world from moving
Stop, stop, stop the clocks from turning
Stop this night from fading away
This time is ours
If I could hold this moment in my hands
I'd stop the world from moving
I'd stop the clocks from turning
This time is ours
Inside a frozen memory of us
And we are motionless, motionless
And we are motionless, motionless
And we are motionless, motionless
We're stop, stop, stop the world from moving
Stop, stop, stop the clocks from turning
Stop this night from fading away, fading away
This time is ours
If I could hold this moment in my hands
I'd stop the world from moving
I'd stop the clocks from turning
This time is ours
Inside a frozen memory of us
And we are motionless, motionless
This time is ours
This time is ours
This time is ours
This time is ours
No brakes this time
I slit the line
But if you want me, it's cool
You can take me for a fool
I could slow down if you want me to
But just for you, just for you, just for you...
Carry me home, put me to bed!
Leave me alone, it's all in my head!
It's out of my hands, over the wheel
My only chance, my only appeal
What if you're here to save me from this?
If I disappear will I be missed?
I never know what I should do
Can I leave it up to you?
No brakes, it's true
No brakes, just you
Something to move me instead
Of this rolodex in my head
I never meant anything I said
When I see red, I see red, I see red...
Carry me home, put me to bed!
Leave me alone, it's all in my head!
It's out of my hands, over the wheel
My only chance, my only appeal
What if you're here to save me from this?
If I disappear will I be missed?
I never know what I should do
Can I leave it up to you?
Can I leave it up to you?
Can I leave it up to you?
Oh jack-o'-lantern man
We will see who's laughing then
Someday when push comes to shove
We will see who's laughing then
Oh jack-o'-lantern man
If you could see the rage inside of me
I could cut my veins and drown you in the flames
And I'd know, I'd know
I would know ecstasy
And I was only seventeen
Stir the blood spill the seed
Psilocybin all the time
Dirty water spill the wine
The birds outside, they never stop
Shut the window call the cops
Oh jack-o'-lantern man
I wanna see that smile turn cold surprise
[ The Bravery Lyrics are found on www.songlyrics.com ] We will see who's laughing then
When I piss in your hollow eyes
I wanna drown you like a kitten in the sink
I wanna see you bleed amethyst
Oh jack-o'-lantern man
We will see who's laughing then
with a skull full of piss
And I was only seventeen
Stir the blood spill the seed
Psilocybin all the time
Dirty water spill the wine
Kenneth Anger colored dreams
Underwater hide the screams
The birds outside, they never stop
We are faster, faster than pain
We are a nerve ending without a brain
We have evolved, we have no feeling at all
It is a brave new world
Raise a glass in salutation
We drink to our annihilation
Was and will just make me ill
It is a brave new world
And we are faster than pain
We are dogs without a name
We are marching soldiers off to claim
The brave, brave, brave new world
I wanna dream it all away
[ The Bravery Lyrics are found on www.songlyrics.com ] And take a soma holiday
I take a gram and I only am
It is a brave new world
Raise a glass in salutation
We drink to our annihilation
Was and will just make me ill
It is a brave new world
And we are faster than pain
We are numbers in a chain
We are marching soldiers off to claim
And you know me now
like a mother knows a child
And you know me now
like I came from your own body
I can feel your pulse like a moth inside a jar
And even this is still too far
Even this is still too far
I wanna be your skin
I wanna feel everything you feel
I wanna be your covering
So let them come like an army against us
I know you won't be afraid
Because I am the armor upon you now
And we are never betrayed
There is no ending between you and me
I wanna be your skin
I wanna feel everything you feel
I wanna be your covering
And I will hide you inside of me
With every breath in harmony
I wanna be your skin
You've got nowhere to run
You've got nowhere to hide
I know you won't escape this time
You can't run far enough
You can't run fast enough
You can't outrun my love
Hot pursuit, yeah
I'm coming for ya
Hot pursuit, yeah
I'm gaining on ya
You're moving fast
But you'll never outlast me
Hot, hot, hot pursuit
Yeah
You might think that I
Come on a little strong
But the real thing is
I can't wait too long
So give your distance now
'Cause time is running out
Until you finally see
You belong to me, you belong to me
Hot pursuit, yeah
I'm coming for ya
Hot pursuit, yeah
I'm gaining on ya
You're moving fast
But you'll never outlast me
Hot, hot, hot pursuit
Yeah
You've got nowhere to run
You've got nowhere to hide
I know you won't escape
This time
You can't run far enough
You can't run fast enough
You can't outrun my love
Hot pursuit, yeah
I'm coming for ya
Hot pursuit, yeah
I'm gaining on ya
You're moving fast

Hot, hot, hot pursuit
Yeah

If I put my hands around your wrists, would you fight
them?
If I put my fingers in your mouth, would you bite them?
So many things that I would do if I had my way with you
I can keep secrets that I know that you want me
You could dig your nails into my skin and you won't
stop me
You could twist and scream into the air but no one can
hear you here
And there will be no tenderness, no tenderness
There will be no tenderness, no tenderness
I will show no mercy for you,
you had no mercy for me
The only thing that I ask, love me mercilessly
While your shouting friends that despise you to your
face
What would they say now if they saw you in this place?
Naked and breathless, could you live with this
disgrace?
Could you live? Could you live? Could you live with
this?
And there will be no tenderness, no tenderness
There will be no tenderness, no tenderness
I will show no mercy for you,
you had no mercy for me
The only thing that I ask, love me mercilessly
If I put my hands around your wrists, would you fight
them?
If I put my fingers in your mouth, would you bite them?
So many things that I would do if I had my way with you
And there will be no tenderness, no tenderness
There will be no tenderness, no tenderness
I will show no mercy for you,
you had no mercy for me
The only thing that I ask, love me mercilessly
If I put my hands around your wrists, would you fight them?
If I put my fingers in your mouth, would you bite them?
So many things that I would do if I had my way with you
I can keep secrets that I know that you want me
You could dig your nails into my skin and you won't stop me

The only thing that I ask, love me mercilessly
All I want is everything
Everything that I'll ever be
Everyone that's coming for me
Nothing happens and everything is changed
All I want is everything to stay the same
Will you give in?
Will you give in?
All I want is everything
All the words and the truths between
All I want is everything
Everything you're keeping from me
Nothing happens and everything is changed
All I want is everything to stay the same
Will you give in?
Will you give in?
I've been staring back in my eyes for a while
I think they never stop moving
All I want is everything
All the things that you think of me
All that you've tricked yourself to believe
Nothing happens and everything is changed
All I want is everything to stay the same
Will you give in?
Will you give in?
Will you give in?
Every morning I wake up and you are home
But in your eyes I see that I'm alone
You've left me with your body in my arms
But I can't feel you anymore - You are gone
I can touch your skin but you aren't there
Frustration burns in me, it's more than I can bear
I wanna take you in my fists and squeeze the life back into you
But there is nothing I can do - You are gone
And I can hold you in my hands
But you are gone, you are gone, you are gone
You've slipped away like a fistful of sand
You are gone, you are gone, you are gone
I am staring straight into your eyes
You never turn away or tell me lies
But you are with some other man while I am lying next to you
Every word from your mouth is a knife in my ear
Every thought in your head is like poison to hear
Like a snake in a suit spitting into the air
With a tongue like a needle and we're shot full of fear
White picket teeth and a big red alert
The life of the party and we pulled up our skirt
It's like poison
It's like poison
Every word from your mouth is a knife in my ear
Every thought in your head is like poison to hear
A fool is a devil and a devil's a fool
With a fork-tongue needle and you got us all fooled
A monkey doing tricks and we couldn't resist
If this isn't evil then I don't know what is
It's like poison
It's like poison
Every word from your mouth is a knife in my ear
Every thought in your head is like poison to hear
The faces all around me, they don't smile, they just crack
Waiting for our ship to come but our ship's not coming back
We do have time like pennies in a jar
What are we saving for? What are we saving for?
There's a smell of stale feeling that's drinking from our skins
The drinking never stops because the drinks absolve our sins
We sit and throw our roots into the floor
What are we waiting for? What are we waiting for?
So give me something to believe
'Cause I am living just to breathe
And I need something more to keep on breathing for
So give me something to believe
Some thing's always coming, you can hear it in the ground
It swells into the air with the rising, rising sound
And never comes but shakes the boards and rattles all the doors
What are we waiting for? What are we waiting for?
So give me something to believe
'Cause I am living just to breathe
And I need something more to keep on breathing for
So give me something to believe
I am hiding from some beast but the beast was always here
Watching without eyes because the beast is just my fear
That I am just nothing, now it's just what I've become
What am I waiting for? It's already done
So give me something to believe
'Cause I am living just to breathe
And I need something more to keep on breathing for
So give me something to believe
And I need something more to keep on breathing for
We are liars like the summertime
Like the spring, we are such fools
Like fall, we are false prophets
And like winter, we are cruel
I don't know what's wrong with us
They just made us this way
There's a hole in you and me
That pulls us together
And I don't know where we belong
I think we grew under a bad sun
I know we're not like everyone
You and me, we grew under a bad sun
Every day you bring me pain
And we savor it like rain
We hold it on our tongues
Just like wine
Someday back when we were young
I guess something just went wrong
The two of us are hung
From the same twisted rope
And I don't know where we belong
I think we grew under a bad sun
I know we're not like everyone
You and me, we grew under a bad sun
And I don't know where we belong
I think we grew under a bad sun
I know we're not like everyone
You and me, we grew under a bad sun
You and me, we grew under a bad sun
Oh Angelina
You are the sun and the moon
Every song I ever sang, I stole it from you
I knew that nothing could tear us apart, I never even gave it a second thought
I was so sure and I was wrong, Now every single thing I ever had is gone
Nothing here is set in stone
Nothing's ever set in stone
Everything I have some day will fall apart and fade away
Oh Angelina
I learned my lesson this time
I took you for granted for so long And now I just wanna die
Every thing I ever got, I never even gave it a second thought
I was so sure, I was so sure - Now there's only one thing I know for sure
Nothing here is set in stone
Nothing's ever set in stone
Everything I have some day will fall apart and fade away
Nothing here is set in stone
Nothing's ever set in stone
Everything I have some day will fall apart and fade away
Nothing here is set in stone
Nothing's ever set in stone
Everything I have some day will fall apart and fade away
Louisiana, in the Bucket of Blood
That's where they met, his eyes were like mud
Cause his whole life he had nothing to see
But he held on to her and he found peace
He'd take her walking down by North Shore
And he always told her
we're meant for much more
We outta go off somewhere so pretty
And then a storm came and fucked up the
Crescent City
And then they were left with nothing
She said nothing's not so bad
It could be the best time that we ever had
Every single day
I can feel them chip, chip chipping away
If only we could run, run from these swine
Oh baby we are wasted in this time
Someday if we try
I know we could fly, fly, fly, fly, fly
We shine like gold
Oh baby we were born to be adored
And I can feel them staring in my face
Like they're dig, dig, digging me,
digging a grave
It's like these people are dead they're so weak
And someone dug them up and gave them
words for their lips to beat
And then they were left with nothing
She said nothing is not so bad
Too many fingers, too many thumbs
Something wicked this way comes
The best time I ever had
Waiting around for something bad
Fearless, fearless, oh
And I know that's why you love me
Fearless, fearless, come on
And I know that's why you love me, chico
And I know that's why you love me, chico
And I know that's why you love me, chico
So fearless
So fearless
This is what it's all about
Take me in and eat me out
Pins and needles in my arms
Lucky eyes and lucky charms
Fearless, fearless, oh
And I know that's why you love me
Fearless, fearless, come on
And I know that's why you love me
Fearless, fearless, oh
And I know that's why you love me, chico
And I know that's why you love me, chico
And I know that's why you love me, chico
So fearless
So fearless
So fearless
So fearless
This is the same old story
All this excitement bores me
Can't you tell I'm trying?
Can't you see I'm dying?
Oh glory
Sweet sweet glory
Oh glory
Woman don't let me down
I know I don't deserve it
How could she be so perfect
Can't you tell I'm trying?
Can't you see I'm dying?
Oh glory
Sweet sweet glory
Oh glory
Woman don't let me down
Do do do do do do do
Oh glory
Sweet sweet glory
Oh glory
Woman don't let me down
Woman don't let me down
I'm in your head like a rat in the walls.
I'm in your head like a rat in the walls.
I'm in your head like a rat in the walls. Ohh. Ohh.
(Ohh. Ohh)
Every single night when you're lying in bed,
you can hear a scratchin' in the back of your head.
I don't know what I did, but I'm under your skin;
I'm on your mind and you can't get me off.
You try to get away, get away, get away.
You try to get away, get away, get away.
You try to get away, get away, get away, but you keep coming back.
I'm in your head like a rat in the walls.
I'm in your head like a rat in the walls.
I'm in your head like a rat in the walls. Ohh. Ohh.
Just like a horse coming back to the stable,
I know you want to leave me, but you are unable.
It's instinct now just like ringing a bell; Pavlov would be proud.
You try to get away, get away, get away.
You try to get away, get away, get away.
You try to get away, get away, get away, but you keep coming back.
I'm in your head like a rat in the walls.
I'm in your head like a rat in the walls.
I'm in your head like a rat in the walls. Ohh. Ohh.
(Ohh. Ohh)
You try to get away, get away, get away.
You try to get away, get away, get away.
You try to get away, get away, get away, but you keep coming back.
I'm in your head like a rat in the walls.
I'm in your head like a rat in the walls.
I'm in your head like a rat in the walls. Ohh. Ohh.
I'm in your head like a rat in the walls.
I'm in your head like a rat in the walls
Me and the ocean
Me and the sea
I don't think so
I don't think it was meant to be
Take me off, somewhere cold
Gradually just growing old
And someday maybe make of me an honest man
Yeah
Well, I don't see no ring on these fingers
I don't see no ring on these fingers
Life in this town, it's like a joke
I must have had fun, cause now I'm broke
Down by the ocean
Oh by the sea
All these people
They look so, they look so happy to me
What if all, I want want in this world
Turned out just to be an honest girl
Turned out just to make of me an honest man
Oh Yeah
Well, I don't see no ring on these fingers
I don't see no ring on these fingers
Life in this town, it's like a joke
I must have had fun, cause now I'm broke
I don't see no ring on these fingers
I don't see no ring on these fingers
Life in this town, makes it hard to see
Things that aren't right in front of me
Oh yeah
Ba ba ba bada, ba ba ba ba
Ba ba ba bada, ba ba ba ba
In this town, it's like a joke
I must have had fun, cause now I'm broke
I'm blind in this town, it's hard to see
Things that aren't right in front of me
I feel like letting you know, how... How much I love you today-hay-ay I feel like letting it show, showing you rightly now They're never going away-hay-ay
I know you're feeling like really low I want to make it okay-hay-ay I wanna show you I know, and it'll be alright I wanna take it away, take it away-ay-ay
Everyone knows what to do
But nobody told me
Looking at me like I knew
So nobody told me
Everyone knows where to go
But nobody told me
Been walking around like I know
Something no one told me
But I wanna know
Who left me out
I wanna know
Who let me down
And I wanna know
Who left me out
Who left me out
Everyone knows what to say
But nobody told me
Everyone around with a smile on their face
But nobody told me
Everyone knows what to do
But nobody told me
Looking at me like I knew
Something no one told me
But I wanna know
Who left me out
I wanna know
Who let me down
And I wanna know
Who left me out
Everyone knows what to be
But nobody told me
I wish I could see what they see
But nobody told me
So maybe it's just me
It must have been me
And I wanna know
Who left me out
I wanna know
Who let me down
And I wanna know
I've spent my whole life surrounded
and I've spent my whole life alone
I wonder why I never wonder why
The easiest things are so hard
I just want, I just want love
I just want, I just want love
I just want, I just want love
I just want something
Something for nothing
Something, something for nothing
I'm a beggar and I'm a chooser
I'm accused, I'm an accuser
But nothing's unconditional
I hold the whole world accused
I've only got myself to blame
I wonder why, I never wonder why
The easiest things are so hard
I just want, I just want love
I just want, I just want love
I just want, I just want love
I just want something
Something for nothing
Something, something for nothing
I just want, I just want love
I just want, I just want love
I just want, I just want love
I just want something
Something for nothing
Something, something for nothing
I'm a beggar and I'm a chooser
I'm accused, I'm an accuser
Everytime you come around
There's a bouquet for me
A corsage of promises
And I am pinned
Like a butterfly on a card
I'm naked and I'm scarred
And you're so perfect to me
Violent ties with hands like a steeple
Tell me lies with a tongue like a needle
I let the words shot down my throat
A face like an iron fist
That I can never resist
I learn the ...
Words of wisdom from your tyrant mouth
Words of wisdom from your tyrant mouth
I'm stuck just like a pig
Roasting in your eyes
I'll believe anything that you want
You gotta teach me how to live
Cause you make me wanna die
You took it all, now you're all I've got
Words of wisdom from your tyrant mouth
Words of wisdom from your tyrant mouth
There's noises in my head
Just noises in my head
If I could I'd drown them all out
I'd bury all of these noises
From your tyrant mouth
You're just a noise in my head
You're just a noise in my head
I'll drown you out
And I'll bury all the noises
From your hateful little mouth
Words of wisdom from your tyrant mouth
Words of wisdom
Words of wisdom
Words of wisdom from your tyrant mouth
Tragedy Bound
Looking for clues
I'm starting to suspect she likes abuse
I'm starting to feel like she doesn't feel
Is there anybody in there?
Tragedy Bound
She is a mess
Her daddy was a demon watching her dress
He shriveled her down, wore her like a crown
Is there anybody in there?
All her life, she's bound to lose
Tragedy Bound
I feel sick
Her daddy was killed, her feelings were mixed
He wore a hole in her skin, now all the boys look in
Is there anybody in there?
Tragedy Bound
Now she's stuck
She can't even care enough to fuck
She's cutting herself just to see if it works
Is there anybody in there?
All her life, she's bound to lose
Tragedy bound
If I met this man
Whout would I say? How could I speak
Whenever I look back
On the best days of my life
I think I saw them all on T.V.
I am so homesick now for
Someone that I never knew
I am so homesick now for
Someplace I will never be
Time won't let me go
Time won't let me go
If I could do it all again
I'd go back and change everything
But time won't let me go
I never had a 'Summer of 69'
Never had a Cherry Valance of my own
All these precious moments
You promised me would come in time
So where was I when I missed mine?
Time won't let me go
Time won't let me go
If you gave me back those years
I'd do it all better I swear
Time won't let me go
Ba ba ba ba ba...
If I could go back once again
I would change everything, yeah
If I could go back once again
I'd do it all so much better
Time won't let me go
Time won't let me go
If I could do it all again
I'd go back and change everything
But you won't ever let me go
[Chorus]
With your long blonde hair and your eyes are blue
The only thing I ever get from you is sorrow (sorrow)
You're liked and fun;
Spendin all my money
You're out there playing your high-class games
Sorrow (Sorrow)
You never do what you know you 'outta
Something tells me you're the devil's daughter
Sorrow (Sorrow)
I tried to find her 'cause I can't resist her
I never knew just how much I missed her
Sorrow (Sorrow)
[Chorus]
With your long blonde hair and your eyes are blue
The only thing I ever get from you was sorrow (sorrow)
Your long blonde hair
I couldn't sleep last night
Split me wide open and look right inside
There's so many things that I tried to hide
Oh you see right through me
You always see right through me
Split me wide open, and cut me in two
There's nothing that I could ever hide from you
Oh you always knew me, you're the only one who knew me
Is nothing sacred, is nothing saved?
Your gentle eyes like a razor blade
They cut me open, you look right through
I give it all to you
Split me wide open, and cut it at all
My hands on your body like a blind man's on a wall
Oh you always show me, you're the only one who shows me
Pinned to a wall, I am hung from a tree
For all these drooling faces that can look up and see
But you always knew me, you're the only one who knew me
Is nothing sacred, is nothing saved?
Your gentle eyes like a razor blade
They cut me open and look right through
I give it all to you
Split me wide open
Split me wide open
Is nothing sacred, is nothing saved?
Your gentle eyes like a razor blade
They cut me open, you look right through
I give it all to you
Split me wide open
Split me wide open
Oh you always knew me, you're the only one who knew me
Split me wide open
Split me wide open
It's sweet Eliza
Remember me
I'm a liar
But not a cheat, no...
I think it's safe to say
That I got carried away
Eliza, it's fooling anyone
Forgive me if I'm out of line
I can't control myself sometimes
I think I'm sick but I might be well
I think I'm broke but it's hard to tell
I think I feel like I've never felt for you
It's sweet Cassandra
Remember me
You are no longer
The one I need, mmm...
I find it hard to tell
That I'm finally be an angel
And silence isn't fooling anyone
Forgive me if I'm out of line
I can't control myself sometimes
I think I'm sick but I might be well
I think I'm broke but it's hard to tell
I think I feel like I've never felt for you
ooh-oooh-oooh
ooh-oooh-oooh
I think I'm sick but I might be well
I think I'm broke but it's hard to tell
I think I feel like I've never felt for you
I know what your problem is, baby
Now take it from me
You think too hard, it makes you crazy
So come on sing songs with me, alright
(Oh, oh, oh, oh)
Lie in the sand
(Oh, oh, oh, oh)
Show me a smile
(Oh, oh, oh, oh)
Girl, take my hand
And walk a while with me
Hey sunshiney day
Hey sunshiney day
Take a walk with me
Hey sunshiney day
Hey sunshiney day
Walk a while with me
On a sunshiney day
Some days were meant to be alone
And this day was meant to for a girl
There's no way you're staying home
Come on out and let me see those pretty curls
(Oh, oh, oh, oh)
Up on the roof now
(Oh, oh, oh, oh)
Take me by surprise
(Oh, oh, oh, oh)
Tell me the truth now
And fill my eyes with you
Hey sunshiney day
Hey sunshiney day
Fill my eyes with you
Hey sunshiney day
Hey sunshiney day
Fill my eyes with you
Tell me, come on, tell me what you can
Even as you wait for death, you're wiser than I am
Tell me what does it mean to exist
I am not a scientist, I must believe in more than this
And I cannot accept
Everything that's real
Is only what our eyes can see
And our hands can feel
Not even earth can hold us
Not even life controls us
Not even the ground can keep us down
The memories in my head
Are just real as the time we spent
You'll always be close to me, my friend
This is not the end
I see, I can see you're so afraid
We're like the silver herd on you, even feel obscured
I wish, I wish I had some words to give
But all that I can think to say is I'll be with you everyday
Not even earth can hold us
Not even life controls us
Not even the ground can keep us down
The memories in my head
I just realized the time we spent
You'll always be close to me, my friend
This is not the end
This is not the end
This is not the end
This is not the end
I don't care, I don't care what you believe
As long as you are in my heart, you're just as real as me
And maybe, maybe even more
Someone has touched so many lives
Can never, never die
Not even earth can hold us
Not even life controls us
Not even the ground can keep us down
The memories in my head
I just realized the time we spent
You'll always be close to me, my friend
This is not the end
This is not the end
This is not the end
This is not the end
The birds are up when he collapses through the door
Spilling out in constellations on the floor
Soaked in liquor he's soft as bread ...
And everything that's left of him to beckon to his bed
He is a nocturnal always alone
But you'll speak in secret codes
That he has never known
In this world, but not of it
So he watches from above it
A visitor here, this is not home
Chorus
I am the spectator
I can see the world passing by from here
I am just a child, to a man
Back to the dust where i began
I was never even here at all
I am the spectator
I am the spectator
His eyes, like two cats, scratching in his head
Begging him for sleep, starving for a bed
But sleep, it never comes
so he ticks the time away
Hour after hour, hear them play their bells go
Chime chime chime, ticking ticking time (x2)
Chorus
I am the spectator
I can see the world passing by from here
I am just a child, to a man
Back to the dust where i began
I was never even here at all
I am the spectator
I am the spectator
I am the spectator
And the bells go
Chime chime chime, ticking ticking time (x3)
Chorus
I am the spectator
I can see the world passing by from here
I am just a child, to a man
Back to the dust where i began
I was never even here at all
I am the spectator
I am the spectator
Me and the ocean
Me and the sea
I don't think so
I don't think it was meant to be
Take me off, somewhere cold
Gradually just growing old
And someday maybe make of me an honest man
Yeah, well
I don't see no ring on these fingers
I don't see no ring on these fingers
Love in this town, it's like a joke
I must have had fun, cause now I'm broke
Down by the ocean, walk by the sea
All these people
They look so, they look so happy to me
What if all, I want want in this world
Turned out just to be an honest girl
Turned out just to make of me an honest man
Oh Yeah, well
I don't see no ring on these fingers
I don't see no ring on these fingers
Love in this town, it's like a joke
I must have had fun, cause now I'm broke
I don't see no ring on these fingers
I don't see no ring on these fingers
Love in this town, makes it hard to see
Things that aren't right in front of me
Oh yeah
Ba ba ba bada, ba ba ba ba
Ba ba ba bada, ba ba ba ba
In this town, it's like a joke
I must have had fun, cause now I'm broke
I'm blind in this town, it's hard to see
Things that aren't right in front of me
Moments lost searching for a dream that's real
From my heart
I'd give it all away just to know
Drifting away
In truth revealed
With perfect order life repeating endlessly
Light streaming from below
This is life reborn
From the shadow to the light
Moving through the time
It's a cycle that repeats
Forever
Don't touch the spinning wheel
Risking progression just for a little taste
But it's so natural
Call it human if you wish to save face
Losing control
Go with the flow
Get swept in the undertow
Where do we go
You ask in simple question
Let me show you
Give me your hand and we shall fly
Seeing all from infant eyes
Moving all through me
It's a cycle that repeats
A race suppressed by oath and seal. The
Ancient tribe, it groans. This cold life
released us from the physical plane of the
human race. Closing the lines. Pave the
way, to destroy the light of their day.
Disgusting, thriving on the sun. Teeth they
grind, waiting for the planets to align. Take
back what belongs to the dominant being.
Congregate spilling blood.
We are the dark, that feed upon the living in
solid shadow. Conquer the earth, and bleed
the carbon masses in solar shadows.
As the cool wind blows, feel the ice grazing
over skin. On a chilled horizon, rides the
destiny of our poor and foolish kind.
From the sun into the deep, we go. Leaving
all known from above this lightless world. The
humans sleep, while violently commanding
"darkness flee the dream." Forboding waves,
unclear, crash on seas. Drawing night.
We are the dark, that feed upon the living in
solid shadow. Conquer the earth, and bleed
the carbon masses in solar shadows.
Dimensions collide, while the creature
resides inside of us all. There's something
evil pulsing to life that has been repressed by
civil tides. Open the barrier lines. A race
suppressed by their repeal. The ancient tribe
still groans. Emotion receding as the beast
grows. We boast the dark, unholy, presence
As I slip away... thoughts rushing through me. Angelic call? Or a demon that's calling my name? Enter the intrepid state. Enter beyond what is seen to the spiritual stream of the vacant.
Shot from the mind of the physical, leaving flesh behind. Rejected by the holy gates. I will not be directed! The course of ancient power, it will follow. Fall with me.
Dark and grim for a memory. Measuring all the glory as it seemed. Was it enough for eternity? Foolish schemes for a destiny lined with dreams all came crashing down on me. What will become of the energy?
Cast away. I feel the heavens slowly turning gray. Colours seem to fade. As the morning star surrounds the angels sing.
Salvation is so far from unholy realms of the filth infestation. Torture the life death-bound in wretched ways. Repent or revenge?
There's no pardon for a meddling soul. Somewhere in time we welcomed in the fall, now in the distance I can see shining, clear, out demise to be...
I can't remember anything
Can't tell if this is true or dream
Deep down inside I feel to scream
This terrible silence stops me
Now that the war is through with me
I'm waking up, I cannot see
That there is not much left of me
Nothing is real but pain now
Hold my breath as I wish for death
Oh please God, wake me
Back in the womb it's much too real
In pumps life that I must feel
But can't look forward to reveal
Look to the time when I'll live
Fed through the tube that sticks in me
Just like a wartime novelty
Tied to machines that make me be
Cut this life off from me
Hold my breath as I wish for death
Oh please God, wake me
Now the world is gone, I'm just one
Oh God help me
Hold my breath as I wish for death
Oh please God, help me
Darkness imprisoning me
All that I see
Absolute horror
I cannot live
I cannot die
Trapped in myself
Body my holding cell
Landmine has taken my sight
Taken my speech
Taken my hearing
Taken my arms
Taken my legs
Taken my soul
Repose
Flesh of the ground deny
Kneel and grieve
Beseeching to no avail
Myth strikes our being
Human existence
Jaded by its progress
Feeding, a manifest of the shadow
Redefine the absolute
Crashing down
Through their eyes
One can see
Fear sustained
Weakened by their minds
Caught in disbelief
Don't deny
All shall see
Vacant souls
Shaping commonality
In this moment we cannot deny what we are
Form a memory on turning wings
And carve a way to ascension
Pray, withdrawn you just weep,
Alone,
Wait for a chance to grow
Culture folds
The falling of love
The darkness above
Repose within our numbers
Walking with a taste
Transposed image of being
Lost beyond the frame, end of days
This time all memories surpass
Embrace
In time all sense of life decays
Descend
Again
All shall return to the sand through forever
We cycle again
Re-Ignite
Savior ablaze
Never ending
Somewhere in Time, We welcomed in the fall.
But in the distance we can see, shining clear, our demise to be.
We're not listening to our selves.
You ask these questions in subconsciousness, but still
We choose to Deny the flood surrounding nations.
Wake up! The water is rising now.
We are the universe inside of you waiting patiently.
All the World by a thread?
Distance the lies that are sold.
They will not justify the pain.
Repose
Flesh of the ground deny
Kneel and grieve
Beseeching to no avail
Myth strikes our being
Human existence
Jaded by it's progress
Feeding, a monster of the shadow
Redefine the absolute
Crashing down
Through their eyes
One can see
Fear sustained
Weakened by their minds
Caught in disbelief
Don't deny
All shall see
Vacant souls
Shaping commonality
In this moment we cannot deny what we are
Form a memory on turning wings
And carve a way to ascension
Pray, withdrawn you just weep
Alone
Wait for a chance to grow
Culture folds
The falling of love
The darkness above
Repose within our numbers
Walking with a taste
Transposed image of being
Lost beyond the frame, end of days
This time all memories surpass
Embrace
In time all sense of life decays
Descend
Again
All shall return to the sand through forever
We cycle again
Re-ignite
Savior ablaze
Never ending
