We Make Each Other Cry
04:27
|
|||
I can love but I’m not in love with you
I am close but I’m miles away from you
You are the one who never wanted to leave
I need more space to be
You came into my life
We joined as man and wife
And if I stay here now my life just wouldn’t be true
And it wouldn’t be fair on you
We make each cry
Don’t blame yourself
‘Cause neither one of us takes the blame
Nothing’s changed just the living end
Forever’s far too long
We gladly took our vows
But it was just a lie
You came into my life
We joined as man and wife
And if I stay here now my life wouldn’t be true
And wouldn’t be fair on you
We make each cry
The time we spend together now
Is killing us
We're fading by the hour, day after day
Is it a dream or is it real
Depends on who you ask
Depends on how you feel
You need to let me go
You need to let me go
You came into my life
We joined as man and wife
And if I stay here now my life wouldn’t be true
And wouldn’t be fair on you
We make each cry

Top Spot

Like an invasion
Like an explosion into me
Fight the invasion
Strangulation won't let me breathe
I start revolutions turning
The hands of the people will set me free
I make a conclusion
I never stop until you make me bleed
Stand up, stand up
I'm gonna take you down
I'm gonna fight until we can see the ground
Stand up, stand up
I'm gonna rise and rise and rise
And knock you off the top spot
Like an invasion
Just a correction of my life
I fight with conviction
I got a million reasons you should make me cry
I stop evolution changin'
Would take all religion to stop the war
I never forget the reasons
The reasons I am fighting
Even then I think about it
Even then I try and do it
I give it my best shot
I give it all I've got I've got I've got

Sunshiny Day
03:46
|
|||
I can see it now
Unfolding right before me
Starkly vivid and picturesque
Know just what it is
Know just what it means
It ain’t nothing if not Kafkaesque
I can see clearly now the rain is gone
I can see all obstacles in my way
Gone are the dark clouds that had me blind
It’s gonna be a bright sunshiny day
I can see it now
What I couldn’t see before
When I was young and a fool
Make no excuses
Got no regrets
I eat them all up like gabagool
I can see clearly now the rain is gone
I can see all obstacles in my way
Here is the rainbow I’ve been praying for
It’s gonna be a bright sunshiny day
Shining through in scaffolds of light
That illuminate all them dark reaches
Turning the nighttime into the day
Making the whole wide world just peaches
I can see it now
A sweet sight to behold
So bright it hurts my eyes
Can’t turn away
Even if I could
I'm too old and I'm too wise

The World in Your Eyes
04:21
|
|||
What do I know
Don’t know nothing
Save the world in your eyes
That look, it cuts though me
Takes me away breath-wise
Wanna forget ‘em but that’s just dumb
They’ll be with me forevermore
Leave my loneliness unbroken
Quit the bust above my door
The world in your eyes
The world in your eyes
No rule applies
To the world in your eyes
The world in your eyes
The big old world in your eyes
The whole wide world in your eyes
They are shining like a beacon
I am blinded to all but you
Can’t escape 'em, can’t turn away
I'm a victim of your voodoo
Wanna forget ‘em but that’s just dumb
They’ve already left their scars
They are perfect, they are creation
My god they are full of stars
They are calling out
I can hear 'em
They scream my frickin' name
What can I do
No nothing, nothing at all
And that's the biggest shame
Wanna forget ‘em but that’s just dumb
They are with me now and for all time
I give up, I give in
That I love you is such a crime

End of the Innocence
03:59
|
|||
Can’t unknow what I know
Can’t pretend to be naive
Can’t be a useful idiot
Can’t unweave what I weave
It's the end of the innocence
I can hear that final bell
The end of the innocence
Goodbye and farewell
Can't deny what is happening
Can't bend my reality
Can't live in blissful ignorance
Can't normalize normality
I see things I shouldn't see
And I can't turn away
It's as insidious as can be
And it has me in its sway
I wish I could close my eyes
And dream it into dust
Head out in the morning
Wanderlust
Can't block out the light
Can't pull down the curtain
Can't live in Disneyland
Can't change nothing is for certain

Sleep Well
04:09
|
|||
I'm so tired
I haven't slept a wink
I'm so tired
My mind is on the blink
I wonder should I get up
And fix myself a drink
Sleep well, sleep well
I'm so tired
I don't know what to do
I'm so tired
My mind is set on you
I wonder should I call you
But I know what you would do
Sleep well, sleep well
I'm so tired I'm feeling so upset
Although I'm so tired
I'll have another cigarette
And curse Sir Walter Raleigh
He was such a stupid git
Sleep well, sleep well

Come to Think of It
04:49
|
|||
I am trying to see it from a realistic point of view
Who do I think you are
And who is actually you
Are you a saint or are a scoundrel
Or are you somewhere in the middle
I don't know 'cause how can I know
When you are an endless riddle
Come to think of it
You must be somewhere in between
That's what I can make of it
'Cause I don't know what you mean
I'm trying to understand
Why I can't stop the way that I feel
Not a second goes by
When my feelings don't feel totally real
If this is not love, if this is not passion
Then what exactly is happening
I've felt it for so long
The feeling is so strong
And it shows no signs of slackening
There's a glimmer I feel
And shines and shines and shines
It has shot right through me
Like an arrow through a valentines
I feel helpless
Like I can't control my emotion
You have cast a spell on me
With your strange and powerful potion
How can you stand back
And act so indifferent
When you see me in agony
Please do something
'Cause if you don't
There'll be nothing left of me

Childhood's End
04:07
|
|||
I ain't no kid
No I ain't no kid
I ain't no kid no more
I am old but am I wiser
Hey there mister senor
I spend my days in contemplation
'Bout all the wrongs that I done
And all the plans that turned to naught
Everything under the sun
This is the way it all winds down
From all that I can comprehend
Say farewell to every sweet little thing
Here is your childhood's end
I ain't no dummy
No I ain't dummy
No I am not at all dumb
I see the end
And it's coming up fast
I see the final outcome
I spend my days a-settling scores
And cleaning up all my mess
Just wanna get my old shit together
Before I decompress
I ain't no fool
No I ain't fool
I ain't no foolish old dude
I can see clearly
Nothing's in my way
No need for me to delude
I spend my days a-tossing out my crap
And whittling down my pile
Don't want to leave you a mountain of shit
Want to leave you in style

Locusts
05:18
|
|||
It came out of the sky
Or least it seemed that way at the time
It’s not like we were asleep
When presented with a new paradigm
Kingdom of tomorrow, come into our waiting arms
Kingdom of tomorrow, come into our waiting arms
Into our hearts and minds
Shut the windows, close the blinds
Swept down like locusts
Swept down like locusts
Swept down like locusts
Swept down like locusts
Ate us alive, ate us alive
I will never be one of them
I will never be one of them
No, no, no, no
That voice that you hear in the dead of night
Is on the telephone phone
It wants to know when you’ll make
Your leap into the great unknown
Kingdom of tomorrow, come into our waiting arms
Kingdom of tomorrow, come into our waiting arms
Into our hearts and minds
Shut the windows, close the blinds
The past and the future are historically overbooked
All the while the reality of the present is undercooked
Kingdom of tomorrow, come into our waiting arms
Kingdom of tomorrow, come into our waiting arms
Into our hearts and minds
Shut the windows, close the blinds

For Old Times
03:11
|
|||
Wanna go back to a place that never was
A place I feel that I could belong
Wanna build a home with four strong walls
With the emphasis on strong
Can you take me back to where I came from
Can you take me back there
Can you take me back to where I came from
Wherever that is well I don’t care
Wanna find a place that no one’s found
Where the people don’t talk so loud
Wanna do the kind of things that I like to do
That’s what makes my world go ‘round and 'round
Just wanna get away by any means
I’ve saved up my nickels and my dimes
Just wanna remember how it might have been
For old times
Wanna disappear in between some crack
Where no one will ever find me
Wanna lock my old life in a musty chest
So nothing will ever remind me

Never Land
04:46
|
|||
I have a place where dreams are born
And time is never planned
It's not on any chart
You must find it in your heart
Never never land
You'll have a treasure if you stay there
More precious far than gold
For once you have found your way there
You will never, never grow old
It may be miles beyond the moon
Or right there where you stand
Just keep an open mind
And then suddenly you'll find
Never never land
And that's my home where dreams are born
And time is never planned
Just think of pleasant things
And your heart will fly on wings
Forever in never never land

Home

Got my things all packed away
Turned off the radio
Took one last look around
And told myself I'm ready to go
I was born a long, long way
From where I wanna be
And now I'm, I'm on my way
I'm on my back way home
Got my ticket in my hand
The train is almost here
A wind blows my at my back
My eyes let go a tear
Scenes go floating by
Like something from a dream
And I let go a laugh
This is not just what it seems
