It's egg rollin' , thick and heavy
All, the past we carry
Oh, I could be new
You under-estimate me
If you're the only one will I never be enough, yeah
Hail, Hail the lucky ones
I refer to those in love, yeah
I sometimes realize...I could only be as good as you'll let me
Are you woman enough to be my man?
Bandaged hand in hand.
And you may see me today
with an illegal smile
it don't cost very much
but it lasts a long while
won't you please tell the man
i didn't kill anyone
i'm just tryin to have me some fun
been listening to this song alot over the past week or so
If i dont fall apart, Will my memory stay clear
So you had to go, And I had to remain here
But the strangest thing today
So far away and yet you feel so close
And Im not gonna question any other way
There must be an open door
For you uhh uhh uhh.... To come back
Hold me, and make it the truth,...
That when all is lost there will be you,...
Cause to the universe I don't mean a thing
And there's just one word I stil believe
And it's
yes- whenever i hear or think of those lines, i imagine ed speaking them to jill... awwww... very loving. she's his lobster.

i wanna shake, i wanna wind out
i wanna leave this mind and shout
i've lived all this life
like an ocean in disguise
i don't live forever
you can't keep me here...
go it alone
you got it, so it goes
i wanna breathe and i said
i can't take it any other way
believe it or not, we don't "need" anything. that is only the spoiled brat in us trying to fill some temporary solution to an emptyness that does not exist.

Life is either a daring adventure or nothing at all!
for some reason the line of the chorus from WHY GO.... ALWAYS seems to get stuck in my head.. even when I haven't listened to Ten in a while!! Don't know why.. but believe me.. there ARE days when I really feel like "Why go home?"
"If I keep holding out, will the light shine through?
under this broken roof itt's only rain that I feel
I've been wishin' out the days, oh, oh, oh, come back
I have been planning out all that I'd say to you
aince you slipped away
know that I still remain true
I've been wishin' out the days
please say that if you hadn't have gone now I wouldn't have lost you another way
from wherever you are , oh, oh, oh, oh, come back"
"do you see the way that tree bends? a lesson to be applied"
this song has helped me with some stuff i've been dealing with lately..but what has helped even more is the following line
"you can't, spend your time alone...redigesting past regrets."

anybody have the lyrics to black and yellow ledbetter?
Black
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 soul
As the earth to the sun
Now the air I tasted and breathed has taken a turn
Ooh, and all I taught her was everything
Ooh, I know she gave me all that she wore
And now my bitter hands chafe beneath the clouds
Of what was everything?
Oh, the pictures have 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
Oh, 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 have 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 will be...yeah...
Uh huh...uh huh...ooh...
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, can't it be mine
Yellow Ledbetter
just make up something about being out on the porch, a box, a bag, and not being able to see them
thanks for the lyrics..black frickin rocks..
yellow ledbetter rocks as well..
most of us know that PJ doesnt really know what yellow ledbetter is about,
right?
i dont know what its about but i read the atlas alot being a truck driver..
i live in Washington state bout 2 hrs southwest from Seattle area.
their is a narrow finger like strip of land that shoots out into the ocean.
the pacific ocean on the west side, willapa bay on the east side..
at the very end of this finger of land is ledbetter point..
hhhmmm..yellow ledbetter might be something about the sun setting
and the porch ppl thingy..i dunno..
oh please let it rain today
this city's so filthy
like my mind in ways
wash my love
love that song....
for me today:
Present Tense
Do you see the way that tree bends?
Does it inspire?
Leaning out to catch the sun's rays
A lesson to be applied
Are you getting something out of this all-encompassing trip?
You can spend your time alone, re-digesting past regrets, oh
Or you can come to terms and realize
You're the only one who can't forgive yourself, oh
Makes much more sense, to live in the present tense
Have you ideas on how this life ends?
Checked your hands and studied the lines
Have you the belief that the road ahead, ascends off into the light?
Seems that needlessly it's getting harder
To find an approach and a way to live
Are we getting something out of this all-encompassing trip?
You can spend your time alone re-digesting past regrets, oh
Or you can come to terms and realize
You're the only one who cannot forgive yourself, oh
Makes much more sense, to live in the present tense

i wanna leave this mind and shout
i've lived all this life

i wanna breathe and i said
i can't take it any other way
