To your voice be true; the rest will follow you.And to
your head be free of all your miseries.
To your stomach fill, shine your cheeks with wine.
To your parents love be generous and kind.
Feeling high helps to free my mind
from all those hands I don't want touching me.
Letting go, it just goes to show;
that you're all right even though you're kind of fucked
Shake your neighbor's hand. Be a better friend.
Work hard through the day so tonight you can play.
Share with me your mind and with you I'll share mine.
Kiss your mother's hand. Wear your father's pride.
Feeling high helps to free my mind
from all those hands I don't want touching me.
Letting go, it just goes to show;
that you're all right even though you're kind of fucked
Other than me did you see all of the masses?
Waiting in line to get their hands on the ashes
of memories leaving stings on their asses.
By now you should be letting go.
Feeling high helps to free my mind
from all those hands I don't want touching me.
Letting go, it just goes to show;
that you're all right even though you're kind of fucked
Are dreams of me still fading when you wake next to him?
But every pill you're taking won't help you soon forget.
I remember we'd lay among your sheets
In your bed beneath the cedar beams
And we'd watch the shadows as they'd flee
I will think of this no more.
How I couldn't be the one to hold you
How I couldn't give the love that made you weep
But, remember this song that I'll sing for you
And I'll sing it to you while you sleep.
And in the night I'll wander, I'm stumbling through the
dark.
Night watchmen say I'm crazy; I'm just a man apart.
And we'd lie beneath the autumn trees
With your hair that fell like the turning leaves
But our love was never evergreen.
I will speak of this no more.
How I couldn't be the one to hold you
How I couldn't give the love that made you weep
But, remember this song that I'll sing for you
And I'll sing it to you while you sleep.
And when you fear in the night
You can close your eyes and turn your head again
While there's a piece of you crying out for me
You will be falling into him.
How I couldn't be the one to hold you
How I couldn't give the love that made you weep
But, remember this song that I'll sing for you
You are unique in that you choose harmfulrecreation over
productivity.Maybe it means that you're a success as an
underachiever;
an unrealistic dream; always draning on society. Doesn't
it seem you're out of place?
Is it your dream that has you in doubt?
Is it just to much to even think about,
how your ideals have been misplaced along the way?
No different than a demon, all the wrong reasons
got your greed leadin' the way.
But lately all the voices have made the wrong choices
leaving you coinless and carried away.
It wasn't your intention to fall to this invention,
you need an intervention to pull you from out this
dimention.
It's a 7 day 24 hour fight of exactly who here gets to
rule this life.
Tell me, is it your dream that has you in doubt?
Is it just to much to even think about,
how your ideals have been misplaced along the way?
This is your own hell, walkin' on eggshells,
not quite a half-step higer than a crack feind.
Is on your knees the only way you can live?
You gotta give it all you can, give it all can and then
some.
Is it your dream that has you in doubt?
Is it just to much to even think about,
How do you live your life burdened with all this tragedy?
You still leave on the light,
thinking that he'll be home like all those times before.
You're too strong to say
you could use a helping hand in times like these.
I'll carry the weight
and keep you light on your feet.
Just don't fly away.
How do you stand upright with the weight of ten worlds on
your back?
How do you make the night
knowing that no one else is home?
We are down and out.
You're searching for answers that werent meant to be
found
unveiling disasters that follow you around.
Allow me to lead you, just this one time dear
until you're stong enough, until the ghosts are clear.
You're too strong to say
you could use a helping hand in times like these.
I'll carry the weight
and keep you light on your feet.
Can you promise, a better ending, than the direction
that this one has been heading?Yes you've fallen
through a trap door of detriment, sorrow, and misorder.
Alone and lying in scattered pieces, but do the best to
please the ones you love.
You've got to get it all together, but you can't even
seem to tie your own shoelace.
It's all in your head. Let it go.
It's all in your head. Clicking your heals will take
you home.
It's a crazy situation the way that you've been stuck
hard on your luck, pressing your luck. Trying to be
anything, but anything won't let you be yourself
Well it's all right. Take a deep breath. Close your
eyes and wish it all away.
You're so anxious for tomorrow, but you haven't even
made it through today.
And you wonder what it might be like if you had only
listened to your voice for once.
Is this string of bad luck ending? You'd be nothing if
you hadn't kept pretending.
It's all in your head. Let it go.
It's all in your head. Clicking your heals will take
you home.
It's a crazy situation the way that you've been stuck
hard on your luck pressing your luck, trying to be
anything but anything won't let you be yourself.
Please your lips with mine, to help distract the time
from eating us away.
It's all in your head. Let it go.
It's a crazy situation the way that you've been stuck
hard on your luck, pressing your luck, trying to be
What will it take for you to noticethis someone as
beautiful as you?
And what will it take to bring me back to focus
from this heart wrench you've got me twisted to?
Condemned to be forever at your mercy;
Wondering if you'll ever know me.
And if you do will it be as good for you?
Till then I'm doubled over.
And I'm standing in the back waiting for a sign to
proceed,
maybe today my patience will be answered.
And the picture that I took of you while you were not
looking is as frightening as when were face to face.
What will it take for you to notice
this someone as beautiful as you?
And what will it take to bring me back to focus
From the vices you've got me locked into.
Condemned to be forever at your mercy;
Wondering if you'll ever know me.
And if you do will it be as good for you?
Till then I'm doubled over.
And I'm standing in the back waiting for a sign to
proceed,
maybe today my patience will be answered.
And the picture that I took of you while you were not
looking is as frightening as when were face to face.
And I want you to notice just how terribly unfocused
I've become since I succumbed to you.
Keep on fighting or forget you.
What the hell am I supposed to do to make you mine?
If you could see into my chest, there's a carving of
you.
When you realize why I'm shaking
Could you be the one to keep me still?
And I'm standing in the back waiting for a sign to
proceed,
maybe today my patience will be answered.
And the picture that I took of you while you were not
There I was held up by a threadwhile reinforcement want
of matter while you led.
I'll say I'm sorry cuz I'm pretty sure you won't.
Keep tip-toeing around all of your do's and dont's.
And dont you dare stop beating up on me,
be back again just as soon as I can to brave the
rivalry.
The happy pictures on the wall they don't look like us
at all,
and it reminds me of what we used to be;
where I'd rather be.
I'd rather be kissing at the small of your back
all the way up tot he top of your neck.
Turn around back down baby look what I've found,
how many licks to the center of a toosie pop town?
Girl you know you want it, so get up on it.
We started something and I aint about to give in
till we get those pieces back together again.
Girl you can't shake me, nor would you ever want to.
You got it the same for me as I got it for you.
And we'll go crazy, pushin' fourth and back
never happy, but never alone
it's kind-of sexy when you're angry like that.
I'm gonna leave you lady, yeah you heard it all before.
Be back in just before I begin to make it out that
door.
The happy pictures on the wall they don't look like us
at all,
and it reminds me of what we used to be;
where I'd rather be.
I'd rather be kissing at the small of your back
all the way up tot he top of your neck.
Turn around back down baby look what I've found,
how many licks to the center of a toosie pop town?
Girl you know you want it, so get up on it.
We started something and I aint about to give in
till we get those pieces back together again.
We've made it as high as we can get, we're coming down
from cloud nine now.
The pictures on the wall don't look like us no more.
I'd rather be kissing at the small of your back
all the way up tot he top of your neck.
Turn around back down baby look what I've found,
how many licks to the center of a toosie pop town?
Girl you know you want it, so get up on it.
We started something and I aint about to give in
Its funny how the smile in your eyesIs slowly fading with
the last days in July
The year is drowning like the calendar grows thin
You'll sail away again with your back against the wind
When the cold wind blows you're gone
And I will hold me head again
But you can't run from the truth
Of London rain
Please send me beaches when my world is cold and weak
And press me flowers in the pages of the diaries you keep
It still won't fill the spot beside me in the bed where
you sleep
As the calendar repeats
When the cold wind blows you're gone
And I will hold me head again
But you can't run from the truth
Of London rain
Say it like you mean it
A last look of summer on your face
I swear I'll believe that someday you will stay
I can take or leave it, I'll take it anywhere with you.
And the boss has got you staying late.Have a bath, feed
the cat, you've got to be at work again at 8
And when you start to get the feeling tomorrow's gonna
feel a lot like today
You hear your boyfriend's voice on the message machine,
Begging, and this is what he's got to say
And he said,
'Baby life's worth living
But we lived it all before.
And if the world's worth seeing,
There ain't nothing we ain't seen before.
And now we're takin' and givin'
But you're takin' this crazy tone.
So maybe life's worth living,
But don't leave me in this time alone,
Just don't leave me in this time alone.'
Two hours later,
There's a knock on the door
And it's your boyfriend's screaming out.
And he said,
'If you go ahead and open up the door,I'm gonna go and
knock it down.'
And he said,
'Remember good times baby like at prom when we were
king and queen.
Or the day we both applied at the factory job to get
the money that would buy our dreams.'
And I said,
'Baby life's worth living
But we lived it all before.
And if they world's worth seeing
There ain't nothing we ain't seen before.
And now we're takin' and givin' but you're takin' this
crazy tone.
So maybe life's worth living,
But don't leave me in this time alone,
Just don't leave me in this time alone.'
Yeah...yeah
And on Thursday, the cops kicked down your door
And found a note to every child to man
It said,
'I left it all to day and tomorrow I'm gonna start
again.
If you think on the day you die you, you're gonna feel
as full as you do now,
Then it's already over,
It's already over.
Cuz, Baby life's worth living
And there's so much I haven't didn't before
If the world's worth seeing
There's so many thing's i haven't seen before.
We were taking and giving and now i'm taking it on my
Cuz Baby, maybe life's worth living,
life's worth living,
It's been a year nowAnd everything appears so clear.
Through all the laughter, the stumbles and falls,
One memory is all I need to say it all.
The only words I know to say.
How I loved your morning eyes.
Dark and deep like the morning tide.
Bright and clear like a summer sky.
How I loved your morning eyes.
Opened up like a sunrise.
I hope this reaches you someday.
I know the feeling.
It's true that way leads onto way.
See through all the bitter fights and I find a lonely
light.
It says much more than words relay.
I hope this light can shine your way.
How I loved your morning eyes.
Dark and deep like the morning tide.
Bright and clear like a summer sky.
How I loved your morning eyes.
Open up like a sunrise.
I hope this reaches you someday.
I'm not bitter.
I'm feeling fine.
I'm just remembering some happiness gone by.
Though other lights will shine with other lovers in
other times,
one memory will be forever yours and forever mine.
Never forget our morning days.
How I loved your morning eyes.
Dark and deep like the morning tide.
Bright and clear like a summer sky.
How I loved your morning eyes.
Open up like a sunrise.
It hurts to say it's over, as it stares me in the
faceRunning my mind over all the remains of this place
A multitude of memory , How can I walk away
From your cup I nurtured, Becoming what I am today
Your arms were always open, warmth and shelter free
And every night I fell asleep you laid along side me
Lifeless I will be when my history is gone, How can I
venture out with out you
To fall back upon
And I'll hold on to, all the times I had with you
As I rest my head, for the last time in this bed
Say goodbye, say goodnight
Say goodbye, say goodnight
The emptiness is shaking the in of me out loud
The outward of my innocence has fallen to the ground
To know I'll never touch something as good as this again,
Why must we run away
The flowers I brought you, the breakfasts in
bedFingertip kisses, sweet nothings I said, to you
meant nothing
alone again.
Would he lay down his coat over mud and the rain?
Hold doors open for you?
Wait up till you're in?
Call to remind you he's thinking of you?
There's so many kisses left for you and I to discuss.
But,
High up on your horse you don't see what it has taken
to make me.
You're looking down now,
down on me.
High up on your horse you don't see what you so soon
shall be missing.
You're looking down now,
down on me.
How could with the same mouth hat you kissed me
to everyone have dissed me,
leaving me a joke among your vanity brigade?
You're running from a future that won't look good in a
frame,
leaving you regretful of your choice to me refrain.
All of the things that your father can buy cant embrace
you,
cannot shake you, kiss you and give you goose bumps on
your neck like I used to.
High up on your horse you don't see what it has taken
to make me.
You're looking down now,
down on me.
High up on your horse you don't see what you so soon
shall be missing.
You're looking down now,
down on me.
High up on your horse you don't see what it has taken
to make me.
You're looking down now,
down on me.
High up on your horse you don't see what you so soon
shall be missing.
You're looking down now,
Talkin bout yours and my time,girl, you always know the
right time,
comin over in the nighttime to take me away.
Tangled-up inside your bedsheets,
lovin you is always so sweet.
Now I'm sendin kisses down to your feet
just hoping they return.
Just take it down and take it slow,
lead your inhibitions down to the floor.
Our favorite song's playin on the old radio.
Take it down and take it slow.
Take it slower to the rhythm,
and make the room a little dimmer,
because you know it's time to begin
the music that we write.
I'll sing your song under my breath,
so close to you through the darkness,
so many things I'll only confess
while I'm singing you to sleep.
Just take it down and take it slow,
lead your inhibitions down to the floor.
Our favorite song's playin on the old radio.
Take it down and take it slow.
Baby close the window and pull the shades.
We aint' gonna see the light till the early signs of
day.
You know our love is gonna be the melody,
And our bodies gonna be the chords.
We're gonna make some sweet love music like we never
have before.
Just take it down and take it slow,
lead your inhibitions down to the floor.
Our favorite song's playin on the old radio.
Take it down and take it slow.
Talkin bout yours and my time,
girl, you always know the right time,
Chillin' at party, staring at a hottie, and she's
staring back at me.Looking twenty-three, but the boys
are telling me that she is only seventeen.
The way that she was movin' started speaking logic to
No way to pass this one down.
Next thing you know, we're heading out that door no way
to turn this around
Come on, we know what your thinking about.
Come on, don't give into that voice of doubt.
Come on, she can't stop staring at you.
There ain't nothing that you can do,
except roll those dice tonight.
Got a voice on my left. Got a voice on my right,
But she blew the angel from my ear.
With her hand on my leg, oh baby please don't beg,
it's making it hard to steer.
I try to ease her off, but she won't let up. She's
pretending not to hear.
I know we're almost home, but she won't let it alone.
Gonna have to stop the car right here.
Come on, we know what your thinking about.
Come on, don't give into that voice of doubt.
Come on, she can't stop staring at you.
There ain't nothing that you can do,
except roll those dice tonight.
Come on, we know what your thinking about.
Come on, don't give into that voice of doubt.
Come on, she can't stop staring at you.
There ain't nothing that you can do,
except roll those dice tonight.
Wake up in the morning the reality is haunting of what
this day may bring
And when she asks, can I see you again, I say not until
you turn eighteen
The ride home is quiet, but soon she gonna find out
what all of this means
But it's alright, just a hell of a night as long as
daddy doesn't turn me in.
Come on, we know what your thinking about.
Come on, don't give into that voice of doubt.
Come on, she can't stop staring at you.
There ain't nothing that you can do,
Let me lay my headUpon your breast for awhile
I need to rest and hear you say,
�It'll be okay�
�Cuz you know that I only need one smile
From you to make me happy to be alive today
Come tomorrow I'll be miles away
I'll never see your face again
I'll only feel your warmth in every day
And hear your laughter in the wind
Let me lay my head
Upon your breast for awhile
I need to rest and hear you say,
It'll be okay
Cuz you know that I only need one smile
From you to make me happy to be alive today
I don't regret a single day I've spent
In this old lovely house with you
You've showed me how to love and what it's meant
To live life quiet, free, and true
Let me lay my head
Upon your breast for awhile
I need to rest and hear you say,
It'll be okay
Cuz you know that I only need one smile
From you to make me happy to be alive today
On the lonely road I can't forget
Days and nights without a home
And after years are gone I'll try to live
With what it is I have become
Let me lay my head
Upon your breast for awhile
I need to rest and hear you say,
It'll be okay
Cuz you know that I only need one smile
From you to make me happy to be alive today
From you to make me happy to be alive today
I cannot see you over and underI cannot make you out
from the crowd
Search a whole world to find you and never once did I
wonder
If I should tell you I love you, if I should tell you
out loud
I crossed the Atlantic
I crossed the Emerald Isles
I've been to mountain tops
Where you could see for miles
Crossed the rivers, but all I came to find
Is that I've never crossed your mind
No, I never crossed your mind
Never before and never again
Are you and I bound to find a love like this again
I want to tell you how the sun rises off the coast of
Japan
I want to tell you more about me, let you know who I am
But you don't care
I crossed the Atlantic
I crossed the Emerald Isles
I've been to mountain tops
Where you could see for miles
Crossed the rivers, but all I came to find
Is that I've never crossed your mind
No, I never crossed your mind
This world is too wide for you to be lonely
I'm wide open to just me and you only
I crossed the Atlantic
I crossed the Emerald Isles
I've been to mountain tops
Where you could see for miles
Crossed the rivers, but all I came to find
Is that I've never crossed your mind
