don't you think you oughtta rest
don't you think you oughtta lay you head down
don't you think you want to sleep
don't you think you oughtta lay your head down, tonight
don't you think you've done enough
oh, don't you think you've got enough, well maybe...
you don't think there's time to stop
there's time enough for you to lay your head down...tonight, tonight
let it wash away
all those yesterdays...
what are you running from
taking pills to get along
creating walls to call your own
so no one catches you
drifting off and doing all the things
that we all do
let them all wash away
all those yesterdays...
all those yesterdays
all those paper plates
all those yesterdays
you've got time, you've got time to escape
there's still time
it's no crime to escape
it's no crime to escape
it's no crime to escape
there's still time, so escape
it's no crime...
all those yesterdays
all those yesterdays
all those yesterdays"You think I got my eyes closed but I'm lookin' at you the whole fuckin' time..."0 -
She's so fabulous
She's so ludicrous
She's so dangerous
Your fat friend
She's intelligent
An experiment
She's an elephant
Your fat friend
Will you run away with me?
Let's go walking on the sea
Just Jesus Christ and you and me and
Your fat friend
See her fumble, see her flirt
In her massive mini-skirt
She is quite the extravert
Here comes your fat girlfriend
She's so fabulous
She's so ludicrous
She's so dangerous
Your fat friend
I love Coco, you love Jim
Your fat friend, she loves him
But he can't love her, he's too thin
For your fat friend
One and one makes three not two
She will stick to you like glue
Don't fuck around with you-know-who
Here comes your fat girlfriend
She's intelligent
An experiment
She's an elephant
Your fat friend"You think I got my eyes closed but I'm lookin' at you the whole fuckin' time..."0 -
I will remember you
Will you remember me?
Don’t let your life pass you by
Weep not for the memories
Remember the good times that we had
I let them slip away from us when things got bad
How clearly I first saw you smiling in the sun
Wanna feel your warmth upon me
I wanna be the one
I will remember you
Will you remember me?
Don’t let your life pass you by
Weep not for the memories
I’m so tired but I can’t sleep
Standing on the edge of something much too deep
It’s funny how we feel so much, but we cannot say a word
We are screaming inside, but we can’t be heard
But I will remember you
Will you remember me?
Don’t let your life pass you by
Weep not for the memories
I’m so afraid to love you, but more afraid to lose
Clinging to a past that doesn’t let me choose
Once there was a darkness, deep and endless night
You gave me everything you had
Oh, you gave me light
And I will remember you
Will you remember me?
Don’t let your life pass you by
Weep not for the memories.We’ll meet again, but not yet…not yet.0 -

It's been a long time since I rock-and-rolled
It's been a long time since I did the stroll
Ooh, let me get it back, let me get it back, let me get it back
mm-baby, where I come from
It's been a long time, been a long time
Been a long, lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely time
Yes, it has
It's been a long time since the book of love
I can't count the tears of a life with no love
A-carry me back, carry me back, carry me back
mm-baby, where I come from, whoa-whoa, whoa-oh-oh-hoh
It's been a long time, been a long time
Been a long, lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely time
Ah, ah-ah, ah-ah
Hoh, it seems so long since we walked in the moonlight
a-makin' vows that just couldn't work right
Haw-haw, yeah, open your arms, open your arms, open your arms
Baby, let my love come running in, a-yeah
It's been a long time, been a long time
Been a long, lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely time
Yeah, hey, yay, hey, yeah, hey, yeah, hey
Ooh, yeah, ooh-ooh, yeah, ooh-ooh, yeah, ooh-ooh, yeah
It's been a long time, been a long time
Been a long, lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely time0 -

in the days
when we were swinging from the trees
i was a monkey
stealing honey from a swarm of bees
i could taste
i could taste you even then
and i would chase you down the wind
you can go there if you please
wild honey
and if you go there. go with me
wild honey
did i know you
did i know you even then
before the clocks kept time
before the world was made?
from the cruel sun
you were shelter
you were my shelter & my shade
if you go there with me
wild honey
you can do just what you please
wild honey
yeah, just blowin in the breeze
wild
wild
wild
i'm still standing
i'm still standing where you left me
are you still growing wild
when everything is tame around you?
i'll send you flowers
cut flowers for your hall
i know your garden's full
but is there sweetness at all?
if you go there, go with me
wild honey
won't you take me, take me please
wild honey
yeah swinging through the trees
wild honey
wild
wild
wild~
u2Life is the riddle
Of which we're caught in the middle.
A couple of lucky ones
Tangled up in too much love
~cowboy junkies0 -
You walk into the room
With your pencil in your hand
You see somebody naked
And you say, "Who is that man?"
You try so hard
But you don't understand
Just what you'll say
When you get home
Because something is happening here
But you don't know what it is
Do you, Mister Jones?
You raise up your head
And you ask, "Is this where it is?"
And somebody points to you and says
"It's his"
And you say, "What's mine?"
And somebody else says, "Where what is?"
And you say, "Oh my God
Am I here all alone?"
Because something is happening here
But you don't know what it is
Do you, Mister Jones?
You hand in your ticket
And you go watch the geek
Who immediately walks up to you
When he hears you speak
And says, "How does it feel
To be such a freak?"
And you say, "Impossible"
As he hands you a bone
Because something is happening here
But you don't know what it is
Do you, Mister Jones?
You have many contacts
Among the lumberjacks
To get you facts
When someone attacks your imagination
But nobody has any respect
Anyway they already expect you
To just give a check
To tax-deductible charity organizations
You've been with the professors
And they've all liked your looks
With great lawyers you have
Discussed lepers and crooks
You've been through all of
F. Scott Fitzgerald's books
You're very well read
It's well known
Because something is happening here
But you don't know what it is
Do you, Mister Jones?
Well, the sword swallower, he comes up to you
And then he kneels
He crosses himself
And then he clicks his high heels
And without further notice
He asks you how it feels
And he says, "Here is your throat back
Thanks for the loan"
Because something is happening here
But you don't know what it is
Do you, Mister Jones?
Now you see this one-eyed midget
Shouting the word "NOW"
And you say, "For what reason?"
And he says, "How?"
And you say, "What does this mean?"
And he screams back, "You're a cow
Give me some milk
Or else go home"
Because something is happening here
But you don't know what it is
Do you, Mister Jones?
Well, you walk into the room
Like a camel and then you frown
You put your eyes in your pocket
And your nose on the ground
There ought to be a law
Against you comin' around
You should be made
To wear earphones
Because something is happening here
But you don't know what it is
Do you, Mister Jones?The car's on fire and there's no driver at the wheel
And the sewers are all muddied with a thousand lonely suicides0 -
you know you've done enough
when every bone is sore
you know you've prayed enough
when you don't ask anymore
you know you're coming to
some kind of understanding
when every dream you've dreamed has left
and you're still standing
momma says that god cares
for every little skinny sheep
so count your ribs and say your prayers
and get to sleep
there's nothing louder to god's ears
than a poor man's sorrow
your daddy is poor today
and he will be poor tomorrow
hey, that's the poor man's house
everybody, we're living in a poor man's house
everywhere we went before they found us out
found out we've been living in a poor man's house
there's nothing like poverty to get you into heaven
they got a lotta wine and fish up there
and the bread's unleavened
they got alotta ears that have heard a whip go crack
lots of missing toes & fingers
and scars upon their backs
daddy's been working too much
for days and days and doesn't eat
he doesn't say much
but i think this time it's got him beat
it isn't that he isn't strong or kind or clever
your daddy is poor today and
he will be poor forever
hey, that's the poor man's house
those kids are living in a poor man's house
they walk to school with the soles of their shoes worn out
and go home in the evening to a poor man's house

If this isn’t what you see
It doesn’t make you blind
If this doesn’t make you feel
It doesn’t mean you’ve died
Where the river’s high
Where the river’s high
If you don’t want to be seen
You don’t have to hide
If you don’t want to believe
You don’t have to try
To feel alive
Alive in the superunknown
First it steals your mind
And then it steals your soul
If this doesn’t make you free
It doesn’t mean you’re tied
If this doesn’t take you down
It doesn’t mean you’re high
If this doesn’t make you smile
You don’t have to cry
If this isn’t making sense
It doesn’t make it lies
Alive in the superunknown
First it steals your mind
And then it steals your soul
Get yourself afraid
Get yourself alone
Get yourself contained
Get yourself control
Alive in the superunknown
First it steals your mind
And then it steals your. . .soul... and the will to show I will always be better than before.0 -
Hold on
Hold on to yourself
For this is gonna hurt like hell
Hold on
Hold on to yourself
You know that only time will tell
What is it in me that refuses to believe
This isn't easier than the real thing
My love
You know that you're my best friend
You know that I'd do anything for you
My love
Let nothing come between us
You know my love for you is strong and true
Am I in heaven here or am I...
At the crossroads I am standing
So now you're sleeping peaceful
I lie awake and pray
That you'll be strong tomorrow and we'll
See another day and we will praise it
And love the light that brings a smile
Across your face
Oh God, if you're out there won't you hear me?
I know that we've never talked before
Oh God the man I love is leaving
Won't you take him when he comes to your door?
Am I in heaven here or am I in hell
At the crossroads I am standing
So now you're sleeping peaceful
I lie awake and pray
That you'll be strong tomorrow and we'll
See another day and we will praise it
And love the light that brings a smile
Across your face...
Hold on
Hold on to yourself
For this is gonna hurt like hell.We’ll meet again, but not yet…not yet.0 -
scratching and dreaming till night turns into day
it's a surefire method to waste your life away
but i'm obliged to give you my disease
i'm abracadabra i do what i please
stone cold mama...she's a bird from a feather
i focus all my energy, understanding you
such a pretty little prancer in a burgandy blue
witch hazel eyeballs taking care of love
remember the key mama...understand my words
stone cold mama...she's a bird from a feather
half ass monkeyboy
half ass monkeyboy
half ass monkeyboy
if you want a plate of my beef swellington baby
you're gonna have to pay the cover charge
open wide let me suck the gate... and the will to show I will always be better than before.0 -
Did I disappoint you or let you down?
Should I be feeling guilty or let the judges frown?
'Cause I saw the end before we'd begun
Yes, I saw you were blinded and I knew I had won
So I took what's mine by eternal right
Took your soul out into the night
It may be over, but it won't stop there
I am here for you if you'd only care
You touched my heart you touched my soul
You changed my life and all my goals
And love is blind and that I knew when
My heart was blinded by you
I've kissed your lips and held your head
Shared your dreams and shared your bed
I know you well, I know your smell
I've been addicted to you
Goodbye my lover
Goodbye my friend
You have been the one
You have been the one for me
I am a dreamer, but when I wake
You can't break my spirit, it's my dreams you take
And as you move on, remember me
Remember us and all we used to be
I've seen you cry, I've seen you smile
I've watched you sleeping for awhile
I'd be the father of your child
I'd spend a lifetime with you
I know your fears and you know mine
We've had our doubts, but now we're fine
And I love you, I swear that's true
I cannot live without you
Goodbye my lover
Goodbye my friend
You have been the one
You have been the one for me
And I still hold your hand in mine
In mine when I'm asleep
And I will bare my soul in time
When I'm kneeling at your feet
Goodbye my lover
Goodbye my friend
You have been the one
You have been the one for me
I'm so hollow, baby, I'm so hollow
I'm so, I'm so, I'm so hollow.We’ll meet again, but not yet…not yet.0 -
I sit alone in my four-cornered room
Staring at candles
Oh that shit is on? heh
Let me drop some shit like this here
Real smooth
Verse one: scarface
At night I can’t sleep, I toss and turn
Candle sticks in the dark, visions of bodies being burned
Four walls just staring at a nigga
I’m paranoid, sleeping with my finger on the trigger
My mother’s always stressing I ain’t living right
But I ain’t going out without a fight
See, everytime my eyes close
I start sweatin, and blood starts comin out my nose
It’s somebody watchin’ the ak’
But I don’t know who it is, so I’m watchin my back
I can see him when I’m deep in the covers
When I awake I don’t see the motherfucker
He owns a black hat like I own
A black suit and a cane like my own
Some might say take a chill, b
But fuck that shit, there’s a nigga trying to kill me
I’m pumping in the clip when the wind blows
Every twenty seconds got me peeping out my window
Investigating the joint for traps
Checking my telephone for taps
I’m staring at the woman on the corner
It’s fucked up when your mind is playing tricks on you
Verse two: willie d
I make big money, I drive big cars
Everybody know me, it’s like I’m a movie star
But late at night, somethin ain’t right
I feel I’m being tailed by the same sucker’s head lights
Is it that fool that I ran off the block
Or is it that nigga last week that I shot
Or is it the one I beat for five thousand dollars
Thought he had ’caine but it was gold medal flour
Reach under my seat, grabbed my popper for the suckers
Ain’t no use to be lying, I was scareder than a motherfucker
But they’re laughing at pow pies and buried that quick
If it’s going down let’s get this shit over with
Here they come, just like I figured
I got my hand on the motherfucking trigger
What I saw’ll make your ass start giggling
Three black, crippled and crazy senior citizens
I live by the sword
I take my boys everywhere I go
Because I’m paranoid
I keep looking over my shoulder and peeping around corners
My mind is playing tricks on me
Verse three: scarface
Day by day it’s more impossible to cope
I feel like I’m the one that’s doing dope
Can’t keep a steady hand because I’m nervous
Every sunday morning I’m in service
Playing for forgiveness
And trying to find an exit out of the business
I know the lord is looking at me
But yet and still it’s hard for me to feel happy
I often drift while I drive
Havin fatal thoughts of suicide
Bang and get it over with
And then I’m worry-free, but that’s bullshit
I got a little boy to look after
And if I died then my child would be a bastard
I had a woman down with me
But to me it seemed like she was down to get me
She helped me out in this shit
But to me she was just another bitch
Now she’s back with her mother
Now I’m realizing that I love her
Now I’m feeling lonely
My mind is playing tricks on me
Verse four: bushwick bill
This year halloween fell on a weekend
Me and geto boyz are trick-or-treating
Robbing little kids for bags
Till an old man got behind our ass
So we speeded up the pace
Took a look back and he was right before our face
We’d be in for a squab’ no doubt
So I swung and hit the nigga in his mouth
He was going down, we figured
But this was no ordinary nigga
He stood about six or seven feet
Now, that’s the nigga I’d been seeing in my sleep
So we triple-teamed on him
Dropping them motherfuckin b’s on him
The more I swung the more blood flew
Then he disappeared and my boys disappeared, too
Then I felt just like a fiend
It wasn’t even close to halloween
It was dark as fuck on the streets
My hands were all bloody from punching on the concrete
God damn, homie
My mind is playing tricks on me

hey, hey, hey
look at me now
i`m unrecognizable
my trademark frown has grown
into the strangest easy smile
oh, my, my,
where did i go wrong?
ask all my drunken friends
"who`s going to carry us home?
who`s going to drink `till the morning?
who`s going to carry us home?
love ruined everything"
as the ladies line their eyes
and the gents make their excuses
and the talk is going cheap
i`ll be smiling in my sleep
hey, hey, hey,
look at her now
she`s the life of the party
oh, my, my,
where did she go wrong?
ask all my drunken friends
"who`s going to carry us home?
who`s going to drink `till the morning?
who`s going to carry us home?
love ruined everything"Stone: Thanks for the pick and the night of complicity, you rock!

I'll be seeing you
In all the old familiar places
That this heart of mine embraces
All day through.
In that small cafe;
The park across the way;
The children's carousel;
The chestnut trees;
The wishin' well.
I'll be seeing you
In every lovely summer's day;
In every thing that's light and gay.
I'll always think of you that way.
I'll find you
In the morning sun
And when the night is new.
I'll be looking at the moon,
But I'll be seeing you.
I'll be seeing you
In every lovely summer's day;
In every thing that's light and gay.
I'll always think of you that way.
I'll find you
In the morning sun
And when the night is new.
I'll be looking at the moon,

I'm all out of hope
One more bad dream could bring a fall
When I'm far from home
Don't call me on the phone
To tell me you're alone
It's easy to deceive
It's easy to tease
But hard to get release
Eyes without a face
Eyes without a face
Eyes without a face
Got no human grace
Your eyes without a face
I spend so much time
Believing all the lies
To keep the dream alive
Now it makes me sad
It makes me mad at truth
For loving what was you
Eyes without a face
Eyes without a face
Eyes without a face
Got no human grace
Your eyes without a face
When you hear the music, you make a dip
Into someone else's pocket then make a slip
Steal a car and go to Las Vegas
Oh
The gigolo pool
I'm on a bus on a psychedelic trip
Reading murder books, tryin' to stay hip.
I'm thinking of you, you're out there so
Say your prayers
Say your prayers
Say your prayers
Now I close my eyes
And I wonder why
I don't despise
Now all I can do
Is love what was once
So alive and new
But it's gone from your eyes
I'd better realize
Eyes without a face
Eyes without a face
Eyes without a face
Got no human grace
Your eyes without a face
And now it's getting worse.We’ll meet again, but not yet…not yet.0 -

I've been addicted to youIf I could be anything in the world I would be your teardrop...I would be born in your eyes, live on your cheeks, and die on your lips.0
