There’s a crow flying down from over the hill
Cracked paint on my window sill
Each morning broke provides a girl
Forget my evening feeling world
When day gets dark it seeps into my skin
And I recall the spark that kept me sane
Can’t talk to you it’s plain
Won’t start to name my pain
Or forget I don’t why
You tugged the corner of my eye
Moving up the neck of my guitar
I turn the lamp off, I see where you are
You’re the one light slowly fading in my mind
Furthest from my head, half the time
Simple point, too bright to leave the sky
You’re dissolving in my eye
In my eye
My closed eye
Half the time
Mountain Dew and Malboro
While I stew over all I owe
My eyes set wet against the breeze
Guide the sun into the trees
Where squirrels are holding acorns in their teeth
I can't see into why I made you leave
You’re the one light slowly fading in my mind.
The furthest from my head, half the time
A simple point revolving in my sky
You're dissolving in my eyelay down all thoughts; surrender to the void

If there's anything that you want,
If there's anything i can do,
Just call on me and i'll send it along
With love from me to you.
I've got everything that you want,
Like a heart that is oh, so true.
Just call on me and i'll send it along
With love from me to you.
I got arms that long to hold you
And keep you by my side.
I got lips that long to kiss you
And keep you satisfied.
If there's anything that you want,
If there's anything i can do,
Just call on me and i'll send it along
With love from me to you.
From me, to you.

I hope the day will be a lighter highway
For friends are found on every road
Can you ever think of any better way
For the lost and weary travellers to go
Making friends for the world to see
Let the people know you got what you need
With a friend at hand you will see the light
If your friends are there then everythings all right
It seems to me a crime that we should age
These fragile times should never slip us by
A time you never can or shall erase
As friends together watch their childhood fly

You sit there in your heartache
Waiting on some beautiful boy to
To save you from your old ways
You play forgiveness
Watch it now
Here he comes
He doesn't look a thing like Jesus
But he talks like a gentleman
Like you imagined
When you were young
Can we climb this mountain
I dont know
Higher now than ever before
I know we can make it if we take it slow
Let's take it easy
Easy now
Watch it go
We're burning down the highway skyline
On the back of a hurricane
That started turning
When you were young
When you were young
And sometimes you close your eyes
And see the place where you used to live
When you were young
They say the devil's water
It ain't so sweet
You dont have to drink right now
But you can dip your feet
Every once in a little while
You sit there in your heartache
Waiting on some beautiful boy to
To save you from your old ways
You play forgiveness
Watch it now
Here he comes
He doesn't look a thing like Jesus
But he talks like a gentleman
Like you imagined
When you were young
Talks like a gentleman
Like you imagined
When you were young
I said he doesn't look a thing like Jesus
He doesn't look a thing like Jesus
But more than you'll ever know.We’ll meet again, but not yet…not yet.0 -
I walk the streets of Japan till I get lost
Cause it doesn't remind me of anything
With a graveyard tan carrying a cross
Cause it doesn't remind me of anything
I like studying faces in a parking lot
Cause it doesn't remind me of anything
I like driving backwards in the fog
Cause it doesn't remind me of anything
[Chorus]
The things that I've loved the things that I've lost
The things I've held sacred that I've dropped
I won't lie no more you can bet
I don't want to learn what I'll need to forget
I like gypsy moths and radio talk
Cause it doesn't remind me of anything
I like gospel music and canned applause
Cause it doesn't remind me of anything
I like colorful clothing in the sun
Cause it doesn't remind me of anything
I ilke hammering nails and speaking in tongues
Cause it doesn't remind me of anything
[Chorus]
The things that I've loved the things that I've lost
The things I've held sacred that I've dropped
I won't lie no more you can bet
I don't want to learn what I'll need to forget
Bend and shape me
I love the way you are
Slow and sweetly
Like never before
Calm and sleeping
We won't stir up the past
So descretely
We won't look back
[Chorus]
The things that I've loved the things that I've lost
The things I've held sacred that I've dropped
I won't lie no more you can bet
I don't want to learn what I'll need to forget
I like throwing my voice and breaking guitars
Cause it doesn't remind me of anything
I like playing in the sand what's mine is ours
If it doesn't remind me of anything

Like a hurricane around your heart when earth and sky are torn apart
He comes gathering up the bits while hoping that the puzzle fits
He leads you, he leads you
Freedom rider
With a silver star between his eyes that open up at hidden lies
Big man crying with defeat, see people gathering in the street
You feel him, you feel him
Freedom rider
When lightning strikes you to the bone, you turn around, you're all alone
By the time you hear that silent (or siren?) sound, then your soul is in the lost and found
Forever, forever
Freedom rider
Here it comeslay down all thoughts; surrender to the void

Tell me all the things you would change
I don't pretend to know what you want
When you come around and spin my top
Time and again, time and again
No fire where I lit my spark
I am not afraid of the dark
Where your words devour my heart
And put me to shame, put me to shame
And your seven worlds collide
Whenever I am by your side
And dust from a distant sun
Will shower over everyone
You're still so young to travel so far
Old enough to know who you are
Wise enough to carry the scars
Without any blame, there's no one to blame
It's easy to forget what you learned
Waiting for the thrill to return
Feeling your desire burn
You're drawn to the flame
When your seven worlds collide
Whenever I am by your side
And dust from a distant sun
Will shower over everyone
Dust from a distant sun
Will shower over everyone
And I'm lying on the table
Washed out in the flood
Like a Christian fearing vengeance from above
I don't pretend to know what you want
But I offer love
Seven worlds collide
Whenever I am by your side
And dust from a distant sun
Will shower over everyone
As time slips by, and on and onI know someday you will have a beautiful Life

"THE MAN WHO SOLD THE WORLD"- DAVID BOWIE
We passed upon the stair, we spoke of was and when
Although I wasn't there, he said I was his friend
Which came as some surprise I spoke into his eyes
I thought you died alone, a long long time ago
Oh no, not me
I never lost control
You're face to face
With The Man Who Sold The World
I laughed and shook his hand, and made my way back home
I searched for form and land, for years and years I roamed
I gazed a gazely stare at all the millions here
We must have died alone, a long long time ago
Who knows? not me
We never lost control
You're face to face
With the Man who Sold the World...~********************************

You cut me down a tree and brought it back to me
and that's what made me see where I was going wrong
You put me on a shelf and kept me for yourself
I can only blame myself, you can only blame me
and I could write a song a hundred miles long
Well that's where I belong and you belong with me
and I could write it down or spread it all around
Get lost and then get found or swallowed in the sea
You put me on a line and hung me out to dry
Darling that's when I decided to go to see you
You cut me down to size and opened up my eyes
Made me realize what I could not see
and I could write a book, the one they'll say that shook the world
and then it took, it took it back from me
and I could write it down and spread it all around
Get lost and then get found and you'll come back to me
Not swallowed in the sea
Oohhhhh Ahhhhhh
and I could write a song a hundred miles long
Well that's where I belong and you belong with me
The streets you’re walking on, a thousand houses long
Well that's where I belong and you belong with me
Oh what good is it to live with nothing left to give
Forget but not forgive, not loving all you see
Oh the streets you're walking on a thousand houses long
Well that's where I belong and you belong with me
Not swallowed in the sea
You belong with me, not swallowed in the sea
Yeah you belong with me
Not swallowed in the seafuck the public0 -
What goes on in Spanish Harlem
Goes on in Poughkeepsie
People slip away
Hit me in the arm
Just please do it swiftly
We ain't got all day, yeah
One more coat of arms
Every business weekly
What's a man to say?
Something else so strong
I never knew what hit me
Since you came to stay, yeah
Spit in the flame
Burning, bleeding, I'll catch up some day
'Til tomorrow's bruises go away
And the grass is turning into hay
You're proud to be your extra blade
What goes on in Spanish Harlem
Goes on in Poughkeepsie
Lost my grip today
Here to stay
At least until it's time to go away
Walking, that's a piece of remembered pain
This demon life has got you in it's way
And I'm proud to be a lump of claylay down all thoughts; surrender to the void

For you I'd do anything
Tear myself in two
Just to hear you breathe
Calculate the changes that in time
turn to nothing and then multiply
yourself by pain,
and you're not even close Elizabeth
Over you I will never be,
I wish I knew why
it never comes to me,
I'm waiting for someone who just wont show
and every night it feels like there's no tomorrow
not that you will ever know,
where ever you are I hope you're happy now
I'm caught in a dream and I cant get out
I'm caught in a dream
I'm caught in an endless dream
and I'm not strong enough to let you go,
and I have tried everything
but that
ElizabethI know someday you will have a beautiful Life

Alas he was the highwayman
The one that comes and goes
And only the highway-woman
Keeps up with the likes of those
And she in all her magic
With hands as quick as light
Took him to be a challenge
And went into the night
And he in all his glory
Was far ahead of her
But she was never sorry
For wishes that would burn
Enter competition
She chases beneath the moon
Her horse is like a dragonfly
She is just a fool
And she wonders is this real
Or does she just want to be Queen
And he fights the way he feels
Is this the end of the dream
And then he sees her coming
Heartbeats on the wind
Considers slowing down
But then... he could never win
And she... out in the distance
Sees him against the sky
A pale and violent rider
A dream begun in wine
And she wonders is this real
Or does she just want to be Queen
And he fights the way he feels
Is this the end of the dream
A dream as the thunder wakes her
And her highwayman disappears
On a life already lived before
In eyes welled with tears
Today and still today they ride
Will they ever win
He the glory...
She the love...
Still they try again
He the glory...
She the love...
Still they try again
He the glory...
She the love...
And still they... try... again0 -
let me run with you tonight
i'll take you on a moonlight ride
there's someone i used to see
but she don't give a damn for me
but let me get to the point
let's roll another joint
and turn the radio loud
i'm too alone to be proud
you don't know how it feels
you don't know how it feels
to be me
people come, people go
some grow young, some grow cold
i woke up in-between
a memory and a dream
so let's get to the point
let's roll another joint
let's head on down the road
there's somewhere i gotta go
and you don't know how it feels
you don't know how it feels
to be me
my old man was born to rock
he's still tryin' to beat the clock
think of me what you will
i've got a little space to fill
so let's get to the point
let's roll another joint
let's head on down the road
there's somewhere i gotta go
and you don't know how it feels
you don't know how it feels
no, you don't know how it feels
to be me
you don't know how it feels
you don't know how it feels
no, you don't know how it feels
to be meIf 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 -
An empty room can be so deafening
The silence makes you wanna scream
It drives you crazy
I chased away the shadows of your name
And burned the picture in a frame
But it couldn't save me
And how could we quit something we never even tried
Well you still can't tell me why
We built it up
To watch it fall
Like we meant nothing at all
I gave and gave the best of me
But couldn't give you what you need
You walked away
You stole my life
Just to find what you're looking for
But no matter how I try
I can't hate you anymore
You're not the person that you used to be
The one I wanted, who wanted me
And that's a shame but
There's only so many tears that you can cry
Before it drains the light right from your eyes
And I can't go on that way
And so I've let go of everything we were
It doesn't mean it didn't hurt
We built it up
To watch it fall
Like we meant nothing at all
I gave and gave the best of me
But couldn't give you what you need
You walked away
You stole my life
Just to find what you're looking for
But no matter how I try
I can't hate you anymore
Sometimes you hold so tight
It slips right through your hands
Will I ever understand?
We built it up
To watch it fall
Like we meant nothing at all
I gave and gave the best of me
But couldn't give you what you need
You walked away
You stole my life
Just to find what you're looking for
But no matter how I try
I can't hate you anymore.We’ll meet again, but not yet…not yet.0 -
Well I wanted you
I wanted no one else
I thought it through
I got you to myself
You got off
Every time you got on to me
I got caught up
In favorable slavery
Was it wrong? Was it wrong?
[CHORUS:]
I guess it wasn't really right
I guess it wasn't meant to be
It didn't matter what they said
'Cause we were good in bed
I guess I stuck around so I could watch us fight
for all the wrong reasons
No, it didn't matter what I tried
It's just a little hard to leave
When you're going down on me
I guess I stuck around so I could watch us fight
for all the wrong reasons
Well you know my friends
Well they know your enemies
I'd pretend
Not to hear what they said to me
'Cause I got off
Every time you got on to me
Was it wrong
To go along with insanity?
Was it wrong? Was it wrong?
[CHORUS]
[x4]
I guess it wasn't what I wanted
Wasn't really what I thought
Thought it was the day I got
I want it all to go away(x4)

She's a loaded gun
In my shaking hands
Am I in hell, or the promise land, yeah
What's your name?
So, I tell you my name when I'm on your skin
You can be
You can be the queen and I'll be the king
I'll get born
Now I'm gonna echo but never again
Not for anyone, anyone
She said
Show me yours
Show you what I got, yeah
I'll show you mine
Will you tell me what you need?
Show me yours
I'll show you mine
So put your money where your mouth is
And the beat goes on
She knows nothin' is wrong
She goes down like a setting sun, wow
What's your name?
If I tell you my name you gotta let me in
You can be
You can be the sinner, I'll be the sin
I will take
I'll take what I want
And it's easy to see
I've got everything, everything
She said
Show me yours
Show you what I got, yeah
I'll show you mine
Will you tell me what you need?
Show me yours
I'll show you mine
So put your money where your mouth is.We’ll meet again, but not yet…not yet.0 -
Is it getting better?
Or do you feel the same?
Will it make it easier on you now?
You got someone to blame
You say
One love
One life
When it's one need
In the night
One love
We get to share it
Leaves you baby if you
Don't care for it
Did I disappoint you?
Or leave a bad taste in your mouth?
You act like you never had love
And you want me to go without
Well it's
Too late
Tonight
To drag the past out into the light
We're one, but we're not the same
We get to
carry each other
carry each other
One
Have you come here for forgiveness?
Have you come to raise the dead?
Have you come here to play Jesus?
To the lepers in your head
Did I ask too much?
More than a lot.
You gave me nothing,
Now it's all I've got
We're one
But we're not the same
Well we
Hurt each other
Then we do it again
You say
Love is a temple
Love a higher law
Love is a temple
Love the higher law
You ask me to enter
But then you make me crawl
And I can't be holding on
To what you got
When all you've got is hurt
One love
One blood
One life
You got to do what you should
One life
With each other
Sisters
Brothers
One life
But we're not the same
We get to
Carry each other
Carry each other
One...
One...
extended version
Can You hear us coming Lord
Can You hear us call
Feel us knocking
We're knocking at Your door0 -
Just cause I fuckin' love this song!
You let me violate you. You let me desecrate you
You let me penetrate you. You let me complicate you
Help me I broke apart my insides. Help me I've got no soul to sell
Help me the only thing that works for me. Help me get away from myself
I want to fuck you like an animal
I want to feel you from the inside
I want to fuck you like an animal
My whole existence is flawed
You get me closer to god
You can have my isolation. You can have the hate that it brings
You can have my absence of faith. You can have my everything
Help me you tear down my reason. Help me it's your sex I can smell
Help me you make me perfect. Help me become somebody else
I want to fuck you like an animal
I want to feel you from the inside
I want to fuck you like an animal
My whole existence is flawed
You get me closer to god
Through every forest, above the trees
Within my stomach. Scraped off my knees
I drink the honey inside your hive
You are the reason I stay aliveForget your perfect offering, there is a crack in everything, that's how the light gets in. - Leonard Cohen0
