tell me why the grass was greener
year ago
I swear it used to grow here
but no more here
tell me why
on this hill
all the birds they used to come to fly here
come to die here
and tell my why i need to know
sometimes i wish i didn't have to know
all you show me
hey world
what you say
should i stick around for another day or two
don't give up on me
i won't give up on you
just believe in me like i believe in
tell me why on the corner
all the kids that used to come to run here
load the guns here
and tell me why
it's okay
to kill in the name of the gods we pray
tell me who said it's okay
to die in the name of the lies we say
tell me why there's child soldiers
tell me why they closed the borders
tell me how to fight disease
and tell me now won't you please
the only thing i want to do
is to be in the arms of someone who believes in me
like i believe in you
i try try try try
i try try try try for you
don't give up on me
and i cry cry cry cry
i cry cry cry cry for you
just believe in me
like i believe in you
Peace

You and I were looking at old pictures yesterday
Sitting in disbelief at how time slips away
Both at a loss for words to say, who knew we'd never be younger than today?
Foolishness protected us from the world outside
They could never come between us but we knew they'd try
We remembered living as if there were a way to forever be younger than today
Never looked at anything you didn't care to see
I was the one who wouldn't let you leave
Even though it was a clear you couldn't stay
Had to try to be younger than today
Had to try to be younger than today
As we parted, you reminded me I'm alive
To remember when the stars danced just for you and I
May the shimmer of the summer always light your way and make you feel younger than today

We all feel the pain, is it necessary?
When we feel the pain, better stick together.
Music is the way to relieve the pressure.
Music on the way, do you get the message?
me de moi, je suis music.
Chante moi, je suis music.
Je suis music.
Chante moi.
Je suis music.
Peace

It's been a mystery
but still they try to see
why something good can hurt so bad
Caught on a one way street
the taste of bittersweet
Love will survive somehow, some way
One love feeds the fire
One heart burns desire
I wonder who's crying now
Two hearts born to run
Who'll be the lonely one
I wonder who's crying now
So many stormy nights
So many wrongs or rights
Neither could change their headstrong ways
And in a lover's rage
they tore another page
The fighting is worth the love they save
Only so many tears you can cry
Till the heartache is over
And now you can say your love
Will never die
Some say love it is a river
that drowns the tender reed
Some say love it is a razor
that leaves your soul to bleed
Some say love it is a hunger
an endless aching need
I say love it is a flower
and you it's only seed
It's the heart afraid of breaking
that never learns to dance
It's the dream afraid of waking
that never takes the chance
It's the one who won't be taken
who cannot seem to give
and the soul afraid of dying
that never learns to live
When the night has been too lonely
and the road has been too long
and you think that love is only
for the lucky and the strong
Just remember in the winter
far beneath the bitter snow
lies the seed
that with the sun's love
in the spring
becomes the rose
I've been looking so long at these pictures of you
That I almost believe that they're real
I've been living so long with my pictures of you
That I almost believe that the pictures are
All I can feel
Remembering
You standing quiet in the rain
As I ran to your heart to be near
And we kissed as the sky fell in
Holding you close
How I always held close in your fear
Remembering
You running soft through the night
You were bigger and brighter and whiter than snow
And screamed at the make-believe
Screamed at the sky
And you finally found all your courage
To let it all go
Remembering
You fallen into my arms
Crying for the death of your heart
You were stone white
So delicate
Lost in the cold
You were always so lost in the dark
Remembering
You how you used to be
Slow drowned
You were angels
So much more than everything
Hold for the last time then slip away quietly
Open my eyes
But i never see anything
If only I'd thought of the right words
I could have held on to your heart
If only I'd thought of the right words
I wouldn't be breaking apart
All my pictures of you
Looking so long at these pictures of you
But i never hold on to your heart
Looking so long for the words to be true
But always just breaking apart
My pictures of you
There was nothing in the world
That I ever wanted more
Than to feel you deep in my heart
There was nothing in the world
That I ever wanted more
Than to never feel the breaking apart
All my pictures of you

I remember it was that Wednesday
Oh when it rained and it rained
They traipsed mud all over the house
It took hours and hours to scrub it out
All over the hall carpet
I took my mop and bucket
And I cleaned and I cleaned
The kitchen floor
Until it sparkled
Then I took my laundry basket
And put the linen all in it
And everything I could fit in it
And all our dirty clothes that hadn't gone into the wash
And all your shirts and jeans and things
And put them in the new washing machine
Washing machine
Washing machine
I watched them go 'round and 'round
My blouse wrapping itself around your trousers
Oh the waves are going out
My skirt floating up around my waist
As I wade out into the surf
Oh and the waves are coming in
Oh and the waves are going out
Oh and you're standing right behind me
Little fish swim between my legs
Oh and the waves are coming in
Oh and the waves are going out
Oh and the waves are coming in
Out of the corner of my eye
I think I see you standing outside
But it's just your shirt
Hanging on the washing line
Waving its arm as the wind blows by
And it looks so alive
Nice and white
Just like its climbed right out
Of my washing machine
Washing machine
Washing machine
Slooshy sloshy slooshy sloshy
Get that dirty shirty clean
Slooshy sloshy slooshy sloshy
Make those cuffs and collars gleam
Everything clean and shiny
If you could see the way I act
When I'm alone
If you could hear my voice crack
Over the phone
You'd know I need you
You'd know I need you
You'd know I need you to love me
"I'm not present, I'm a drug that makes you dream"
Once I thought I saw you in a crowded hazy bar,
Dancing on the light from star to star.
Far across the moonbeam I know that's who you are,
I saw your brown eyes turning once to fire.
You are like a hurricane
There's calm in your eye.
And I'm gettin' blown away
To somewhere safer where the feeling stays.
I want to love you but I'm getting blown away.
I am just a dreamer, but you are just a dream,
You could have been anyone to me.
Before that moment you touched my lips
That perfect feeling when time just slips
Away between us on our foggy trip.
You are like a hurricane
There's calm in your eye.
And I'm gettin' blown away
To somewhere safer where the feeling stays.
I want to love you but I'm getting blown away.
You are just a dreamer, and I am just a dream.
You could have been anyone to me.
Before that moment you touched my lips
That perfect feeling when time just slips
Away between us on our foggy trip.
You are like a hurricane
There's calm in your eye.
And I'm gettin' blown away
To somewhere safer where the feeling stays.
I want to love you but I'm getting blown away.
Wake up everybody no more sleepin in bed
No more backward thinkin time for thinkin ahead
The world has changed so very much
From what it used to be so
there is so much hatred war an' poverty
Wake up all the teachers time to teach a new way
Maybe then they'll listen to whatcha have to say
Cause they're the ones who's coming up and the world is in their hands
when you teach the children teach em the very best you can.
The world won't get no better if we just let it be
The world won't get no better we gotta change it yeah, just you and me.
Wake up all the doctors make the ol' people well
They're the ones who suffer an' who catch all the hell
But they don't have so very long before the Judgement Day
So won'tcha make them happy before they pass away.
Wake up all the builders time to build a new land
I know we can do it if we all lend a hand
The only thing we have to do is put it in our mind
Surely things will work out they do it every time.
Peace

There's a light, when my baby's in my arms.
There's a light, when the window shades are drawn.
Hesitate when I feel I may do harm to her.
Wash it off cause this feeling we can share.
And I know she's reached my heart in thin air.
Byzantine is reflected in our pond.
There's a cloud, but the water remains calm.
Reaching in the suns fingers clutch the dawn to pass.
Even out, it's a precious thing to bear.
And I know she's reached my heart in thin air.
Yes I know she's reached my heart in thin air.
It's not in my past to presume.
Love can keep on moving in both directions.
How to be happy and true is the quest we're taking on together.
Take it on, on, on, on, on.
Take it on, on, on, on, on.
There's a light when my baby's in my arms.
And I know she's reached my heart in thin air.
And I know she's reached my heart in thin air.
And I know she's reached my heart in thin air.
Yes I know she's reached my heart.
My lips are shakin
My nails are bit off
It's been a month and a day since I've heard myself talk
Only advantage this lifes got on me
Picture an empty cup in the middle of the sea
And I fought back in my mind
Never lets me be right...
I got memories, I got shit
So much it don't show...
Oh, I walked the line...
When you held me in at night
Oh, I walked the line...
When you held my hand and I...
On empty shells seem so easy to crack
Got all these questions
Don't know who I could even ask
So I'll just lie down and wait for the dream
Where I'm not ugly and you're lookin at me
And I'll stay in bed...
Oh, little I've seen there
If just once I could be loved...
Oh, I'd stare back at me
Oh, I walked the line...
When you held me in at night
Oh, I walked the line...
When you held my hand and I
Oh, I walked the line...
When you held me close at night
Oh, I paid the price...
Never held you in your eyes
All alone I circle my mind
trying to catch that clue I missed
how'd I mess it up again?
I suspect I was too afraid to believe
too afraid to consider you wanted me to
change my mind, a second time
an' I was too far away to see
to see your face
to see your face
to see
to see
to see
that maybe you wanted to see
some eyes in love
some eyes
in love
I felt it was an "I'm sorry."
heard you wrapping it up
putting a period on it
emptying the bottle, maybe?
just to put it in the recycling bin to make room
thought you'd need to clear it out
to gain more space for yourself
an' I was too far away to see
to see your face
to see your face
to see
to see
to see
that maybe you wanted to see
some eyes in love
some eyes
in love
stupidly I just tried to be brave an' alone
but I shoulda known!
you did it for a better response than that
too afraid to consider you wanted me to
change my mind, a second time
an' I was too far away to see
to see your face
to see your face
to see
to see
to see
that maybe you wanted to see
some eyes in love
some eyes
in love
I close my eyes, only for a moment, and the moment's gone
All my dreams, pass before my eyes, a curiosity
Dust in the wind, all they are is dust in the wind
Same old song, just a drop of water in an endless sea
All we do, crumbles to the ground, though we refuse to see
Dust in the wind, All we are is dust in the wind
Don't hang on, nothing lasts forever but the earth and sky
It slips away, all your money won't another minute buy
Dust in the wind, All we are is dust in the wind
Wish you were here... ♥~RIP Dad

This is the power
Since time began
Every single hour
That we have known
And from each moment
All that is left
Sleep of the innocent
Just one desire
Shine like it does
Into every heart
Shine like it does
And if you're looking
You will find it
You will find it
This is the story
Since time began
There will come a day
When we will know

Don't ask me, what you know is true
Don't have to tell you, I love your precious heart
I, I was standing
You were there, two worlds collided
And they could never tear us apart
We could live for a thousand years
But if I hurt you I'd make wine from your tears
I told you that we could fly
'Cause we all have wings but some of us don't know why
I, I was standing
You were there, two worlds collided
And they could never ever tear us apart
I (don't ask me) I was standing (you know is true)
You were there (worlds collided) two worlds collided
(we're shining through)
And they could never tear us apart
You (don't ask me) you were standing (you know is true)
I was there (worlds collided) two worlds collided
(we're shining through)
And they could never tear us apart
I, I was standing, you were there

What is the name to call
For a different kind of girl
Who knows the feelings
But never the words
To look at you
And never speak
Is so good
For me tonite
To look at you
And never speak
Is so good
For me tonite
What is the name to call
For a different kind of girl
Who knows the feelings
But never the words
Who do you ask when there`s no one
Left to turn to
You ask me and I`ll always try to hear
Past money and colours and make believe
Good cheap values for a thrifty clown
To look at you
And never speak
Is so good
For me tonite
To look at you
And never speak
Is so good
For me tonite
To look at you
And never speak
Is so good
For me tonite
What is the name to call
For a different kind of girl
Who knows the feelings
But never the words
What do you fear in the simple
Still of a summer`s nite
I understand I sympathize for a day dream
Fairytailes and I love you
What is the name to call
For a different kind of girl
Who knows the feelings
But never the words
To this . . . real life documentary

I feel clean again
I don't waste my sin
I can't spare a grin
Because it's bad blood time again
My morning full on speed
No it's not so rid of me
This is, this is a hungry need
Won't you help me to plant the seed
And if it grows
Yes, we'll know, oh we'll know
If I found you a floating feather
Sent down to help me fly away
If I found you a floating feather
I would be amazed
I'd be amazed
Your lips taste dry again
Death cold has got your skin
I'm not lost in who loses or wins
I would just like for this spell to end
Cause I'm ready
Ready to begin
Begin again
If I found you a floating feather
Sent down to help me fly away
If I found you a floating feather
I would be amazed
I, Well I remember one time
You were all smiles
Nothing stood in our way
Well so here I am now
Here I am just wanting to return to those days
We'll get there baby
I'll take you there babe
Oh, we will find, we will find our way
"I'm not present, I'm a drug that makes you dream"
I see the world
Feel the chill
Which way to go
Windowsill
I see the words
On a rocking horse of time
I see the birds in the rain
Oh dear dad
Can you see me now
I am myself
Like you somehow
I'll ride the wave
Where it takes me
I'll hold the pain
Release me
Oh dear dad
Can you see me now
I am myself
Like you somehow
I'll wait up in the dark
For you to speak to me
I'll open up
Release me
Release me
Release me
Release me

but still they try to see
why something good can hurt so bad
Caught on a one way street
the taste of bittersweet
Love will survive somehow, some way
One love feeds the fire
One heart burns desire
I wonder who's crying now
Two hearts born to run
Who'll be the lonely one
I wonder who's crying now
So many stormy nights
So many wrongs or rights
Neither could change their headstrong ways
And in a lover's rage
they tore another page
The fighting is worth the love they save
Only so many tears you can cry
Till the heartache is over
And now you can say your love
Will never die
Whoa ooh oh ooh oh
Hoo oh hoo oh
Wish you were here...
♥~RIP Dad
that drowns the tender reed
Some say love it is a razor
that leaves your soul to bleed
Some say love it is a hunger
an endless aching need
I say love it is a flower
and you it's only seed
It's the heart afraid of breaking
that never learns to dance
It's the dream afraid of waking
that never takes the chance
It's the one who won't be taken
who cannot seem to give
and the soul afraid of dying
that never learns to live
When the night has been too lonely
and the road has been too long
and you think that love is only
for the lucky and the strong
Just remember in the winter
far beneath the bitter snow
lies the seed
that with the sun's love
in the spring
becomes the rose
Wish you were here...
♥~RIP Dad
cause i'm freezing in this room..
try to catch the deluge in a paper cup
I've been looking so long at these pictures of you
That I almost believe that they're real
I've been living so long with my pictures of you
That I almost believe that the pictures are

Remembering
You standing quiet in the rain

Holding you close
How I always held close in your fear

You running soft through the night
You were bigger and brighter and whiter than snow
And screamed at the make-believe
Screamed at the sky
And you finally found all your courage
To let it all go
Remembering
You fallen into my arms
Crying for the death of your heart
You were stone white
So delicate
Lost in the cold
You were always so lost in the dark
Remembering
You how you used to be
Slow drowned
You were angels
So much more than everything
Hold for the last time then slip away quietly
Open my eyes
But i never see anything
If only I'd thought of the right words
I could have held on to your heart
If only I'd thought of the right words
I wouldn't be breaking apart
All my pictures of you
Looking so long at these pictures of you
But i never hold on to your heart
Looking so long for the words to be true
But always just breaking apart
My pictures of you
There was nothing in the world
That I ever wanted more
Than to feel you deep in my heart
There was nothing in the world
That I ever wanted more
Than to never feel the breaking apart
All my pictures of you

Dancing on the light from star to star.

You are like a hurricane
There's calm in your eye.
And I'm gettin' blown away
To somewhere safer where the feeling stays.
I want to love you but I'm getting blown away.
I am just a dreamer, but you are just a dream,
You could have been anyone to me.
Before that moment you touched my lips
That perfect feeling when time just slips
Away between us on our foggy trip.
You are like a hurricane
There's calm in your eye.
And I'm gettin' blown away
To somewhere safer where the feeling stays.
I want to love you but I'm getting blown away.
You are just a dreamer, and I am just a dream.
You could have been anyone to me.
Before that moment you touched my lips
That perfect feeling when time just slips
Away between us on our foggy trip.
You are like a hurricane
There's calm in your eye.
And I'm gettin' blown away
To somewhere safer where the feeling stays.
I want to love you but I'm getting blown away.
Wish you were here...

i want nothing for free
and i sure don't want your respect
i just wanna know...who's talking to me.
we are wounded but we are healing....
Wake up everybody no more sleepin in bed
No more backward thinkin time for thinkin ahead
The world has changed so very much
From what it used to be so
there is so much hatred war an' poverty
Wake up all the teachers time to teach a new way
Maybe then they'll listen to whatcha have to say
Cause they're the ones who's coming up and the world is in their hands
when you teach the children teach em the very best you can.
The world won't get no better if we just let it be
The world won't get no better we gotta change it yeah, just you and me.
Wake up all the doctors make the ol' people well
They're the ones who suffer an' who catch all the hell
But they don't have so very long before the Judgement Day
So won'tcha make them happy before they pass away.
Wake up all the builders time to build a new land
I know we can do it if we all lend a hand
The only thing we have to do is put it in our mind
Surely things will work out they do it every time.
Peace

There's a light, when the window shades are drawn.
Hesitate when I feel I may do harm to her.
Wash it off cause this feeling we can share.
And I know she's reached my heart in thin air.
Byzantine is reflected in our pond.
There's a cloud, but the water remains calm.
Reaching in the suns fingers clutch the dawn to pass.
Even out, it's a precious thing to bear.
And I know she's reached my heart in thin air.
Yes I know she's reached my heart in thin air.
It's not in my past to presume.
Love can keep on moving in both directions.
How to be happy and true is the quest we're taking on together.
Take it on, on, on, on, on.
Take it on, on, on, on, on.
There's a light when my baby's in my arms.
And I know she's reached my heart in thin air.
And I know she's reached my heart in thin air.
And I know she's reached my heart in thin air.
Yes I know she's reached my heart.
Wish you were here...

Aerial
The dawn has come
and the wine will run
and the song must be sung
and the flowers are melting
in the sun
I feel I want to be up on the roof
I feel I gotta get up on the roof
up, up on the roof
up, up on the roof
oh the dawn has come
and the song must be sung
and the flowers are melting
what kind of language is this?
What kind of language is this?
I can't hear a word you're saying
tell me, what are you singing?
in the sun
All of the birds are laughing
all of the birds are laughing
come on let's all join in
come on let's all join in
I want to be up on the roof
I've gotta be up on the roof
up, up high on the roof
up, up on the roof
in the sun
My nails are bit off
It's been a month and a day since I've heard myself talk
Only advantage this lifes got on me
Picture an empty cup in the middle of the sea
And I fought back in my mind
Never lets me be right...
I got memories, I got shit
So much it don't show...
Oh, I walked the line...
When you held me in at night
Oh, I walked the line...
When you held my hand and I...
On empty shells seem so easy to crack
Got all these questions
Don't know who I could even ask
So I'll just lie down and wait for the dream
Where I'm not ugly and you're lookin at me
And I'll stay in bed...
Oh, little I've seen there
If just once I could be loved...
Oh, I'd stare back at me
Oh, I walked the line...
When you held me in at night
Oh, I walked the line...
When you held my hand and I
Oh, I walked the line...
When you held me close at night
Oh, I paid the price...
Never held you in your eyes
Wish you were here...

trying to catch that clue I missed
how'd I mess it up again?
I suspect I was too afraid to believe
too afraid to consider you wanted me to
change my mind, a second time
an' I was too far away to see
to see your face
to see your face
to see
to see
to see
that maybe you wanted to see
some eyes in love
some eyes
in love
I felt it was an "I'm sorry."
heard you wrapping it up
putting a period on it
emptying the bottle, maybe?
just to put it in the recycling bin to make room
thought you'd need to clear it out
to gain more space for yourself
an' I was too far away to see
to see your face
to see your face
to see
to see
to see
that maybe you wanted to see
some eyes in love
some eyes
in love
stupidly I just tried to be brave an' alone
but I shoulda known!
you did it for a better response than that
too afraid to consider you wanted me to
change my mind, a second time
an' I was too far away to see
to see your face
to see your face
to see
to see
to see
that maybe you wanted to see
some eyes in love
some eyes
in love
All my dreams, pass before my eyes, a curiosity
Dust in the wind, all they are is dust in the wind
Same old song, just a drop of water in an endless sea
All we do, crumbles to the ground, though we refuse to see
Dust in the wind, All we are is dust in the wind
Don't hang on, nothing lasts forever but the earth and sky
It slips away, all your money won't another minute buy
Dust in the wind, All we are is dust in the wind
Wish you were here...
♥~RIP Dad
Since time began
Every single hour
That we have known
And from each moment
All that is left
Sleep of the innocent
Just one desire
Shine like it does
Into every heart
Shine like it does
And if you're looking
You will find it
You will find it
This is the story
Since time began
There will come a day
When we will know
Peace

Don't have to tell you, I love your precious heart
I, I was standing
You were there, two worlds collided
And they could never tear us apart
We could live for a thousand years
But if I hurt you I'd make wine from your tears
I told you that we could fly
'Cause we all have wings but some of us don't know why
I, I was standing
You were there, two worlds collided
And they could never ever tear us apart
I (don't ask me) I was standing (you know is true)
You were there (worlds collided) two worlds collided
(we're shining through)
And they could never tear us apart
You (don't ask me) you were standing (you know is true)
I was there (worlds collided) two worlds collided
(we're shining through)
And they could never tear us apart
I, I was standing, you were there

What is the name to call
For a different kind of girl
Who knows the feelings
But never the words
To look at you
And never speak
Is so good
For me tonite
To look at you
And never speak
Is so good
For me tonite
What is the name to call
For a different kind of girl
Who knows the feelings
But never the words
Who do you ask when there`s no one
Left to turn to
You ask me and I`ll always try to hear
Past money and colours and make believe
Good cheap values for a thrifty clown
To look at you
And never speak
Is so good
For me tonite
To look at you
And never speak
Is so good
For me tonite
To look at you
And never speak
Is so good
For me tonite
What is the name to call
For a different kind of girl
Who knows the feelings
But never the words
What do you fear in the simple
Still of a summer`s nite
I understand I sympathize for a day dream
Fairytailes and I love you
What is the name to call
For a different kind of girl
Who knows the feelings
But never the words
To this . . . real life documentary
Peace

I don't waste my sin
I can't spare a grin
Because it's bad blood time again
My morning full on speed
No it's not so rid of me
This is, this is a hungry need
Won't you help me to plant the seed
And if it grows
Yes, we'll know, oh we'll know
If I found you a floating feather
Sent down to help me fly away
If I found you a floating feather
I would be amazed
I'd be amazed
Your lips taste dry again
Death cold has got your skin
I'm not lost in who loses or wins
I would just like for this spell to end
Cause I'm ready
Ready to begin
Begin again
If I found you a floating feather
Sent down to help me fly away
If I found you a floating feather
I would be amazed
I, Well I remember one time
You were all smiles
Nothing stood in our way
Well so here I am now
Here I am just wanting to return to those days
We'll get there baby
I'll take you there babe
Oh, we will find, we will find our way
Feel the chill
Which way to go
Windowsill
I see the words
On a rocking horse of time
I see the birds in the rain
Oh dear dad
Can you see me now
I am myself
Like you somehow
I'll ride the wave
Where it takes me
I'll hold the pain
Release me
Oh dear dad
Can you see me now
I am myself
Like you somehow
I'll wait up in the dark
For you to speak to me
I'll open up
Release me
Release me
Release me
Release me
Wish you were here...
