| Now if the promoter don't mind and the roadies don't mind, We can take a little time and we'll leave it all behind. | |
| Heartless challenge, Pick your path and I'll pray, Wake up in the morning, See your sunrise loves to go down. | |
| There are stars in the Southern sky, Southward as you go there is moonlight. | |
| You need coolin' baby, I'm not foolin', I'm gonna send you back to schoolin'. | |
| Early in the evening, just about supper time, Over by the courthouse they're starting to unwind. | |
| Love is like a bomb baby c'mon get it on, livin' like a lover with a radar phone. | |
| Woe to you o' Earth and Sea for the Devil sends the beast with wrath. | |
| You cry to weak friends that sympathize, Can you hear the violins playing your song? | |
| I journey through the desert of the mind, with no hope, I found low. | |
| Stay with me, My love I hope you'll always be, Right here by my side if ever I need you. | |
| You could have a big dipper, going up and down, all around the bends. | |
| Really don't mind if you sit this one out, my words but a whisper your deafness a shout. | |
| Ain't no doubt about it, we were doubly blessed cause were barely seventeen and we were barely dressed. | |
| There's a killer on the road, his brain is squirmin' like a toad. | |
| He doesn't wanna make it cry or sing and an old guitar is all he can afford. | |
| Feel the bile rising from your guilty past with your nerves in tatters as the cockleshell shatters. | |
| I met you on somebody's island, you thought you had known me before. | |
| Ain't no use in complainin' when you got a job to do spent my evenings down at the drive in and that's when I met you. | |
| So long, I've been looking too hard, I've been waiting too long, Sometimes I don't know what I will find. | |
| The roses in the window box have tilted to one side, Everything about this house was born to grow and die. | |
| She was a black-haired beauty with big dark eyes and points all her own sitting way up high. | |
| Black-roof country, no gold pavements, tired starlings. Silver horses run down moonbeams in your dark eyes. | |
| The music is reversible, but time is not. | |
| Hangman is coming down from the gallows and I don't have very long. | |
| Jump back, what's that sound? Here she comes full blast and top down. | |
| Well I tried to make it Sunday but I got so damn depressed that I set my sights on Monday and got myself undressed. | |
| Say I got in trouble, trouble in my eyes, I'm just looking for another good time. | |
| Everybody knows your fate, you're everything I ****ing hate and I'm everything thing that you could never be. | |
| I'll shine up the old brown shoes, put on a brand new shirt, I'll get home early from work if you say that you love me. | |
| I love you, I hate you, I can't get around you. I breathe you, I taste you, I can't live without you. | |
| If you want it you're gonna bleed but it's the price you pay and you're a very sexy girl whose very hard to please. | |
| And I don't need you to be by my side to tell me that everything's alright, I just wanted you to tell me the truth, you know I'd do that for you. | |
| Take that look of worry, I'm an ordinary man, they don't tell me nothing so I find out what I can. | |
| I can hear you coming, we know what you're after, we're wise to you this time, we won't let you kill the laughter. | |

| It's the edge of the world and all of Western civilization. The sun may rise in the east, at least it settled in a final location. | |
| Well I'm taking my time, I'm just moving along. You'll forget about me after I've been gone. | |
| On my death bed I will pray to the Gods and to the angels like a pagan to anyone. | |
| Here you are down on your knees again trying to find air to breathe again. | |
| And before the day was through we could torch a car or two then have ourselves another tall boy, yeah. | |
| Hush little baby don't say a word and never mind that noise you heard. | |
| Holding on to let them know what's given to me, given to me. To hide behind the mask this time and try to believe. | |
| Who's sleeping on my side of the bed tonight? Have you ever cried so hard? Baby you just died. | |
| Why do we never get an answer when we're knocking at the door? With a thousand million questions about hate and death and war. | |
| Home in the valley, home in the city, home isn't pretty, ain't no home for me. | |
| Cause you gotta be bigger, be faster, be stronger if you're gonna survive any longer. | |
| Like throwing away an old toy, some babe's talkin' real loud, talkin' all about the new crowd. | |
| I got a certain little girl, she's on my mind, no doubt about it she looks so fine. | |
| Get on your knees and let the games begin, bow to your queen and I will crown your head. | |
| The brain needs oxygen, can't sneak around this bait, his catacomb has got me by the chin. | |
| Who's to know if you soul will fade at all? The one you sold to fool the world. | |
| But I know the neighborhood, and talk is cheap when the story is good and the tales grow taller on down the line. | |
| In the silence of her mind quiet movements where I can find grabbing for me with her eyes. | |
| Well I don't know why I came here tonight, I got the feeling that something ain't right, I'm so scared. | |
| We hear you're leaving, that's okay, I thought our little wild time has just begun. | |
| So wild, standing there, with her hands in her hair, I can't help remember just where she touched me. | |
| What'll you do when you get lonely and nobody's waiting by your side? You've been running and hiding much too long. | |
| I won't stand in your way, let your hatred grow, and she'll scream and she'll shout and she'll pray. And she had a name, yeah she had a name. | |
| Must be your skin that I'm sinking in, must be for real 'cause now I can feel. | |
| Your eyes tell the stories of the day you wish you could recall the moments that once have. | |
| I will wait for you, pray for you, before I make my final run, I will stay with you, decay with you. | |
| I walk along the avenue, I never thought I'd meet a girl like you, meet a girl like you. | |
| It's strong and it's sudden and it's cruel sometimes, but it might just save your life. | |
| Oh no, here it is again, I need to know why did i choose to betray you, Something wrong with all the plans in my life. | |
| My heart is old it holds my memories, my baby burns like a gemlike flame. | |
| The secret side of me I never let you see I keep it caged but I can't control it. So stay away from me, the beast is ugly. | |
| Caught on a one-way street, the taste of bittersweet, Love will survive somehow, some way. | |
| Well if this whole crusade's a charade and behind it all there's a price to be paid for the blood on which we dine. | |
| You know I've been mistaken but just give me a break and see the changes that I've made. I've got some imperfections but how can you collect them all and throw them in my face? | |

| You're in a uniform so you won't be ignored, you are affected and so you're accepted. | |
| Too many people stepping over me, the only thing that's been on my mind is the one thing I need before I die. | |
| All you've ever wanted was someone to truly look up to you and six feet under water I do. | |
| Sometimes I feel the uncertainty stinging clear and I can't help but ask myself how much I let the fear take the wheel and steer. | |
| You can't quit until you try, you can't live until you die, you can't learn to tell the truth until you lie. | |
| I appreciate your judgement, it's proved I can't trust a word you say. | |
| I stopped an old man along the way hoping to find some forgotten words or ancient melodies, He turned to me as if to say, Hurry Boy, it's waiting there for you. | |
| When time soaked with blood turns its back, I know it's hard to fall. Confided in me was your heart, I know it's hurting you but it's killing me. | |
| I know that I can stand my head high, forget not where I fall, Still I find why and reason. | |
| I don't wanna blame this on you, I know I gave it all I can. No I'm not gonna blame this on you. | |
| Watch your head spin, like a meso-cyclone, bouncing off the walls now there's no where to run. | |
| Shiny diamonds, like the eyes of a cat in the black and blue, something is coming for you. | |
| It's the way she looks at me sentences me to collect the head of anyone, collect the head of those who look her way. It's the way her whispers seem to kiss my ear. | |
| So helpless, guess what you're out of time. New aliens spawn, we reinvent the dawn. | |
| Hate well has run dry, fill it with.. _________________ | |
| Whenever I'm alone with you, you make me feel like I'm home again. | |
| I wanna feel a kiss just crush me and break me down.. Knock me out, knock me out, cause I've waited for all my life to be here with you tonight. | |
| A certain girl she took my hand and ran it up her thigh, she licked her lips and pulled my hair, I'd fall in love for a night. | |
| Went to a party, I danced all night, I drank 16 beers, and I started up a fight. | |
| I don't wanna leave her now, you know I believe in hell. Somewhere in her smile, she knows that I don't need no other lover. | |
| I know they're watching, watching, all the commotion the kiddie like play, has people talking, talking. | |
| Now you give me something I need and I want it, I got something for you. | |
| Please allow me to introduce myself, I'm a man of wealth and taste, I've been around for a long, long year. | |
| Once I rose above the noise and confusion just to get glimpse beyond this illusion, I was soaring ever higher, but I flew too high. | |
| I don't mind you coming here and wasting all my time, cause when you're standing oh so near, I kinda lose my mind. | |
| Who needs a house out in Hackensack? Is that all you get for your money? | |
| Woke up this morning with a wine glass in my hand, whose wine? What wine? | |
| Cold late night, so long ago when I was not so strong you know, A pretty man came to me never seen eyes so blue. | |
| Well I took a walk around the world to ease my troubled mind, I left my body lying somewhere in the sands of time. | |
| It's early morning, the sun comes out, last night was shaking, pretty loud. | |
| Oh, He don't know so he chases them away yeah, Oh someday yet he'll begin his life again. | |
| I know, I know, you'll probably scream and cry that your little world won't let you go. | |
