Tragic youth was looking young and sexy
The tragic youth was wearing tattered black jeans
Bearing arms and flooring all her mischief
The tragic youth was going down on me
And I swear
Hoo, hoo
Yes, I swear
I feel the wall of silence separate us
I hear the morning junk, her wretched highs
I spin from Planet X to Planet Alpha
Struggling for reality
Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha
Woo, hoo
Ha, ha, ha, ha
Woo hoo
Hey, now my sight is failing in this twilight
Duh duh duh duh duh-duh duh-duh-duh
Now my death is more than just a sad song
Da duh duh duh duh-duh duh-duh-duh
And I swear
Hoo, hoo
Yes, I swear
Hoo, hoo
I still don't remember how this happened
I still don't get the 'wherefores' and the 'whys'
I look for scent and I get next to nothing
Hey, boy, welcome to reality
Ha, ha, ha, ha
Woo, hoo
I've been right, but I've been wrong
Now I'm back where I started from
Never looked over reality's shoulder
Ha, ha, ha, ha
Huh, ha, ha, ha
Woo, hoo
Huh, ha, ha
Woo, hoo
Wooh

Once divided...nothing left to subtract...
some words when spoken...can't be taken back...
walks on his own...with thoughts he can't help thinking...
future's above...but in the past he's slow and sinking...
caught a bolt 'a lightnin'...cursed the day he let it go...
nothingman...
nothingman...
isn't it something?
nothingman...
she once believed...in every story he had to tell...
one day she stiffened...took the other side...
empty stares...from each corner of a shared prison cell...
one just escapes...one's left inside the well...
and he who forgets...will be destined to remember...
nothingman...
nothingman...
isn't it something?
nothingman...
oh, she don't want him...
oh, she won't feed him...after he's flown away...
oh, into the sun...ah, into the sun...
burn...burn...
nothingman...
nothingman...
isn't it something?

Mean mistreater, you make me cry,
You lay around, and watch me die.
Mean mistreater, can't you see I'm real?
Are you satisfied, with the way you feel?
I've tried hard to live without you, in so many ways.
I just can't help myself from thinking of you, for the rest of my days.
Heartache is at my door step, won't leave me alone.
I just can't get used to it, now that I'm on my own.
I know all about you, your childhood days,
Your mom and dad, your pretty face.
Mean mistreater, if you need me,
I'm needin' you to set me free.
Mmmm ..."Everyone wants to be the sun that lights up your life, but I'd rather be your moon so I can shine on you during your darkest hour when your sun's not around."0 -
There - there's a place
Where I can go
When I feel low
When I feel blue
And it's my mind
And there's no time
When I'm alone
I - I think of you
And things you do
Go round my head
The things you've said
Like I love
Only my
In my mind there's no sorrow
Don't you know that it's so?
There'll be no sad tomorrow
Don't you know that it's so?
There - there's a place
Where I can go
When I feel low
When I feel blue
And it's my mind
And there's no time
When I'm alone
There - oh there's a place
Oh there's a place...
there's a place - the beatleslay down all thoughts; surrender to the void

Every time we lie awake
After every hit we take
Every feeling that I get
But I haven’t missed you yet
Every roommate kept awake
By every sigh and scream we make
All the feelings that I get
But I still don’t miss you yet
Only when I stop to think about it
I hate everything about you
Why do I love you?
I hate everything about you
Why do I love you?
Every time we lie awake
After every hit we take
Every feeling that I get
But I haven’t missed you yet
Only when I stop to think about it
I hate everything about you
Why do I love you?
I hate everything about you
Why do I love you?
Only when I stop to think
About you, I know
Only when you stop to think
About me, do you know
I hate everything about you
Why do I love you?
You hate everything about me
Why do you love me?
I hate
You hate
I hate
You love me
I hate everything about you
Why do I love you?We’ll meet again, but not yet…not yet.0 -
Sometimes I wanna take you down.
Sometimes I wanna get you low.
Brush your hair back from your eyes.
Take you down let the river flow.
Sometimes I go and walk the street
Behind the green sheet of glass.
A million miles below their feet
A million miles, a million miles
CHORUS:
I'll be with you girl
Like being low
hey hey hey like being stone.
I'll be with you girl
Like being low
hey hey hey like being stone.
A million poppies gonna make me sleep.
Just one rose and knows your name
The fruit is rusting on the vine
The fruit is calling from the trees
Hey don't you wanna go down
Like some junkie cosmonaut
A million miles below their feet
A million miles a million miles
REPEAT CHORUS
Blue blue is the sun.
Brown brown is the sky.
Green green of her eyes.
A million miles a million miles
Hey hey don't you wanna go down
Like some disgraced cosmonaut
A million miles below their feet
A million miles a million milesI know someday you will have a beautiful Life

Of all the things that you could choose to say
“Baby come home with me for old time sake”
“Stand by my side and flash me that smile”
“Everybody is out tonight”
So I called you up from god knows where
Would you lie in bed if I were there
Speak soft, just talk I will listen
Don’t you dare leave till the morning
Like you always do
Follow me down through the streets of the states
Make up a reason not to come for old time sake
Nothing in this town could ever change
Except maybe new lines on your face
So I called you up from god knows where
Would you lie in bed if I were there
Speak soft, just talk I will listen
Don’t you dare leave till the morning
Like you always doI know someday you will have a beautiful Life

If the rain comes, they run and hide their heads.
They might as well be dead.
If the rain comes. if the rain comes.
When the sun shines, they slip into the shade.
And sip their lemonade.
When the sun shines. when the sun shines.
Rain, I don’t mind.
Shine, the weather’s fine.
I can show you that when it starts to rain.
Everything’s the same.
I can show you. I can show you.
Rain, I don’t mind.
Shine, the weather’s fine.
Can you hear me that when it rains and shines.
It’s just a state of mind?
Can you hear me? can you hear me?

TV party tonight, TV party tonight, TV party tonight, TV party tonight)
We're gonna have a TV party tonight (All right)
We're gonna have a TV party all right (Tonight)
(We've got nothing better to do, than watch TV and have a couple of brews)
Everybody's gonna hang out here tonight (All right)
We'll pass out on the couch all right (Tonight)
(We've got nothing better to do, than watch TV and have a couple of brews)
(Don't talk about anything else, we don't wanna know)
(We're dedicated to our favorite shows)
That's Incredible, Hill Street Blues, Dallas, Fridays
We sit glued to the TV set all night (And every night)
Why go into the outside world at all (Its such a fright)
(We've got nothing better to do, than watch TV and have a couple of brews)
TV really shows what its like out there (Its a scare)
You can go out if you want (We wouldn't dare)
(We've got nothing better to do, than watch TV and have a couple of brews)
(Don't talk about anything else, we don't wanna know)
(We're dedicated to our favorite shows)
Saturday Night Live, Monday night football, Jeffersons, Vegas
I wouldn't be without my TV for a day (Or even a minute)
Don't even bother to use my brain any more (There's nothing left in it)
(We've got nothing better to do, than watch TV and have a couple of brews)
Hey wait a minute, my TV doesn't work (Its broken)
What are we gonna do tonight, this isn't fair (We're hurting)
(We've got nothing better to do, than watch TV and have a couple of brews)
(What're we gonna talk about, I don't know)
(We're gonna miss our favorite shows)
No That's Incredible, no Monday night football, no Jeffersons, no Fridays
(No TV party tonight)The car's on fire and there's no driver at the wheel
And the sewers are all muddied with a thousand lonely suicides0 -
Ain't it funny
It's been awhile since you came around
Now ya wanna see what's goin' down
Tryin' to tell me why ya want my time
Tryin' to tell me how I'm on your mind
See it never had to be this way
You should of never played the games you played
Now I'm seein' that you're kinda lame
Knowin how the situation change
Ain't that funny
Baby that you want me, when you had me
Love is crazy, now I can smile and say
Ain't that funny
Baby that you want me, when you had me
Love is crazy, I'm glad I can smile and say
Ain't that funny
I remember how you walked away
Even when I tried to call your name
See at first I didn't understand
Now you're lookin' like a lonely man
I remember how you did me wrong
And now you're hurtin' cos my love is gone
Everybody gets a chance to burn
You can take it as a chance to learn.
Ain't that funny
Baby that you want me, when you had me
Love is crazy, now I can smile and say
Ain't that funny
Baby that you want me, when you had me
Love is crazy, I'm glad I can smile and say
Ain't that funny
I really wish you wouldn't send me gifts
Tryin' to make me sit and reminise
Tryin' to blind me with your blingin' bling
Thought I told you love don't cost a thing
Hope you realize that now I'm through
And I don't ever wanna hear from you
I had enough of bein' there for you
Now I'm laughin' whule you play the fool
Ain't that funny
Baby that you want me, when you had me
Love is crazy, now I can smile and say
Ain't that funny
Baby that you want me, when you had me
Love is crazy, I'm glad I can smile and say
Ain't that funny

I am bottled fizzy water
and you were shaking me up
you are a fingernail running down
the chalkboard I thought I left in third grade
now my only consolation
is that this could not last forever
even though you're singing and thinking
how well you've got it made
Who are you?
when will you be through?
yeah, it's just a phase
it will be over soon
yeah, it's just a phase
yeah, it's just a... phase
Call it women's intuition
but I think I'm on to something here
temporaryism has been the black plague
and the Jesus of our age
I know that I sound opinionated
maybe biased and quite possibly jaded
but sooner than later they'll be
throwing quarters at you on the stage
Who are you?
when will you be through?
yeah, it's just a phase
it will be over soon
yeah, it's just a... phase
and I am waiting for it to be over tooWe’ll meet again, but not yet…not yet.0 -
Lord, I miss that girl
On the day we met the sun was shining down
Down on the valley
Riddled with horses running
Crushing them with flowers
I would have picked for her
On the day she was born
She runs through my veins like a long black river
And rattles my cage like a thunderstorm
Oh my soul
What does it mean?
What does it mean?
What does it mean to be so sad?
When someone you love
Someone you love is supposed to make you happy
What do you do
How do you keep love alive?
When it won't
What, what are the words
They use when they know it's over
"We need to talk," or
"I'm confused, maybe later you can come over"
I would've held your mother's hand
On the day you was born
She runs through my veins
Like a long black river and rattles my cage
Like a thunderstorm
Oh, my soul
What does it mean?
What does it mean?
What does it mean to be so sad?
When someone you love
Someone you love is supposed to make you happy
What do you do
How do you keep love alive?
When it won't
How do you keep love alive?I know someday you will have a beautiful Life

Hey
What’s the point of this?
Hey
What’s your favorite song?
Maybe we could hum along
Well, I think you’re smart
You sweet thing
Tell me your name
I’m dying here
Ooh, got you where I want you
Ooh, got you where I want you
Oh yeah
Hey
Maybe just a smile
Oh, hey
Did you know that I can dance?
Could we talk for a while?
Well, I think you’re smart
You sweet thing
Tell me your sign
I’m dying here
Ooh, got you where I want you
Ooh, got you where I want you
Oh yeah
Ooh, got you where I want you
I want you bad
Well, I think you’re smart
You sweet thing
Tell me your name
I’m dying here
Ooh, got you where I want you
Got you where I want you
Yeah
Got you where I want you
I want you
Want you
You
Got you where I want you.We’ll meet again, but not yet…not yet.0 -
I walk the maze of moments
But everywhere I turn to begins a new beginning
But never finds a finish
I walk to the horizon
And there I find another
It all seems so surprising
And then I find that I know
You go there, you're gone forever
I go there, I'll lose my way
If we stay here, we're not together
Anywhere Is
The moon upon the ocean
Is swept around in motion
But without ever knowing
The reason for its flowing
In motion on the ocean
The moon still keeps on moving
The waves still keep on waving
And I still keep on going
You go there, you're gone forever
I go there, I'll lose my way
If we stay here, we're not together
Anywhere Is
I wonder if the stars sign
The life that is to be mine
And would they let their light shine
Enough for me to follow
I look up to the heavens
But night has clouded over
No spark of constellation
No Vela, no Orion
The shells upon the warm sands
Have taken from their own lands
The echo of their story
But All I hear are low sounds
As pillow words are weaving
And willow waves are leaving
But should I be believing
That I am only dreaming
You go there, you're gone forever
I go there, I'll lose my way
If we stay here, we're not together
Anywhere Is
To leave the thread of all time
And let it make a dark line
In hopes That I can Still Find
The way back to the moment
I took the turn and turned to
Begin a new beginning
Still looking for the answer
I cannot find the finish
It's either this or that way
It's one way or the other
It should be one direction
It could be on reflection
The turn I have just taken
The turn that I was making
It might be just beginning
I might be near the endWe’ll meet again, but not yet…not yet.0 -
I'm questioning my education
Is my education who I am now?
While you're deciding, I've been finding
Looking around in the here and now
If I've been taught from the beginning
Would my fears now by winning?
I'm questioning my own equation
Is my own equation relevant somehow?
The flags are waving, the news is breaking
See the man who can't pick out his own tie
If I've been taught from the beginning
Would my fears now be winning?
A wild world, figuring out the answers
I'll be in my own dance and iiii...
I'm questioning my education
rewind and what does it show?
Could be, the truth it becomes you
I'm a seed, wondering why it growsThe car's on fire and there's no driver at the wheel
And the sewers are all muddied with a thousand lonely suicides0 -
time can take it's toll on the best of us
look at you, you're growing old so young
traffic lights blink at you in the evening
you tilt your head and turn it to the sun
sometimes the tv is like a lover
singing softly as you fall asleep
you wake up in the morning and it's still there
adding up the things you'll never be
alright, i can say what you want me to
alright, i can do all the things you do
alright, i'll make it all up for you
i'm still in love with you
i'm still in love with you
time can take it's toll on the best of us
look at you, you're growing old so young
traffic lights blink at you in the evening
you tilt your head and turn it to the setting sun
you disembark the latest flight to paradise
you almost turn your ankle in the snow
you fall back into where you started
make up words to songs you used to know
alright, i can say what you want me to
alright, i can do all the things you do
alright, i'll make it all up for you
i'm still in love with you
i'm still in love with you
the hardluck guy, he never had a chance, you know
incurable romantics never do
he held a flame i wasn't born to carry
i'll leave the dying young stuff up to you
you get back on the latest flight to paradise
i found out from a note taped to the door
i think i saw your airplane in the sky tonight
through my window lying on theh kitchen floor
i want more...
give me more...I know someday you will have a beautiful Life

I’ve got another confession to make
I’m your fool
Everyone’s got their chains to break
Holdin’ you
Were you born to resist or be abused?
Is someone getting the best, the best, the best, the best of you?
Is someone getting the best, the best, the best, the best of you?
Are you gone and onto someone new?
I needed somewhere to hang my head
Without your noose
You gave me something that I didn’t have
But had no use
I was too weak to give in
Too strong to lose
My heart is under arrest again
But I break loose
My head is giving me life or death
But I can’t choose
I swear I’ll never give in
I refuse
Is someone getting the best, the best, the best, the best of you?
Is someone getting the best, the best, the best, the best of you?
Has someone taken your faith?
It's real, the pain you feel
You trust, you must
Confess
Is someone getting the best, the best, the best, the best of you?
Oh...
Oh...Oh...Oh...Oh...
Has someone taken your faith?
It's real, the pain you feel
The life, the love
You die to heal
The hope that starts
The broken hearts
You trust, you must
Confess
Is someone getting the best, the best, the best, the best of you?
Is someone getting the best, the best, the best, the best of you?
I’ve got another confession my friend
I’m no fool
I’m getting tired of starting again
Somewhere new
Were you born to resist or be abused?
I swear I’ll never give in
I refuse
Is someone getting the best, the best, the best, the best of you?
Is someone getting the best, the best, the best, the best of you?
Has someone taken your faith?
It's real, the pain you feel
You trust, you must
Confess
Is someone getting the best, the best, the best, the best of you?We’ll meet again, but not yet…not yet.0 -
How do you cool your lips, after a summer's kiss
How do you rid the sweat, after the body bliss
How do you turn your eyes, from the romantic glare
How do you block the sound of a voice
You'd know anywhere
Oh, I really should've known
By the time you drove me home
By the vagueness in your eyes, your casual goodbyes
By the chill in your embrace
The expression on your face told me
Maybe you might have some advice to give
On how to be insensitive, insensitive, insensitive
How do you numb your skin, after the warmest touch
How do you slow your blood, after the body rush
How do you free your soul, after you've found a friend
How do you teach your heart it's a crime to fall in love again
Oh, you probably won't remember me
It's probably ancient history
I'm one of the chosen few
Who went ahead and fell for you
I'm out of vogue, I'm out of touch
I fell too fast, I feel too much
I thought that you might have, some advice to give
On how to be insensitive
Oh, I really should've known
By the time you drove me home
By the vagueness in your eyes, your casual goodbyes
By the chill in your embrace
The expression on your face that told me
Maybe you might have some advice to give
On how to be insensitiveI know someday you will have a beautiful Life

Well she cried, and she cried
All night to the sound of the freeway hum
And she swears she'll be gone
When the sun hits the ground
And she ain't coming back to my cell
Well she's tired and she's tired
Of this life she's been leading too long
And the time turns around
Through the walls that surround
To the chimes of a jailor's song
In my four walled world
Well she tries and she tries
But my feet just won't leave the ground
And i'm tired and i'm tired
Of this prisoner's life, and these chains
That drag me down
In my four walled world
And now the sun is low
And these walls try to break my soul
And now the moon is full
And I won't see nothing tonight
But the tears in her eyes and
My four walled world"Everyone wants to be the sun that lights up your life, but I'd rather be your moon so I can shine on you during your darkest hour when your sun's not around."0 -
sheets of empty canvas, untouched sheets of clay
were laid spread out before me as her body once did
all five horizons revolved around her sun
as the earth to the sun
now the air i tasted and breathed has taken a turn
and all i taught her was everything (that's all)
i know she gave me all that she wore
and now my bitter hands shake beneath the clouds
of what was everything?
all the pictures had all been washed in black, tattooed everything...
i take a walk outside, i'm surrounded by some kids at play
i can feel their laughter, so why do i sear
and twisted thoughts that spin round my head
i'm spinning, oh, i'm spinning
how quick the sun can, drop away
and now my bitter hands cradle broken glass
of what was everything?
all the pictures had all been washed in black, tattooed everything...
all the love gone bad, turned my world to black
tattooed all i see, all that i am, all i'll be...
i know someday you'll have a beautiful life, i know you'll be a star
in somebody else's sky, but why
why, why can't it be, a-can't it be mine?
i don't...i don't think these people understand
oh they don't understand
oh no one understands
we belong together, together, together...
ohhhh...I know someday you will have a beautiful Life
