  • Childhood living is easy to do
    The things you wanted I bought them for you
    Graceless lady, you know HOW I am
    You know I can't let you slide through my hands

    Wild horses couldn't drag me away
    Wild, wild horses, couldn't drag me away

    I watched you suffer a dull aching pain
    Now you've decided to show me the same
    But no sweet, vain exits or offstage lines
    Could make me feel bitter or treat you unkind

    Wild horses couldn't drag me away
    Wild, wild horses, couldn't drag me away

    I know I dreamed you a sin and a lie
    I have my freedom, but I don't have much time
    Faith has been broken, tears must be cried
    Let's do some living after love dies
    Wild horses couldn't drag me away
    Wild, wild horses, we'll ride them some day

    Wild horses couldn't drag me away
    Wild, wild horses, we'll ride them some day

    Wish you were here...

    ~RIP Dad
  • Screaming at the window
    Watch me die another day
    Hopeless situation
    Endless price I have to pay

    Sanity now it's beyond me
    There's no choice

    Diary of a madman
    Walk the line again today
    Entries of confusion
    Dear diary, I'm here to stay

    Manic depression befriends me
    Hear his voice
    Sanity now it's beyond me
    There's no choice

    A sickened mind and spirit
    The mirror tells me lies
    Could I mistake myself for someone
    Who lives behind my eyes?
    Will he escape my soul
    Or will he live in me?
    Is he trying to get out
    Or trying to enter me?

    Voices in the darkness
    Scream away my mental health
    Can I ask a question
    To help me save me from myself?

    Enemies fill up the pages
    Are they me
    Monday 'till Sunday in stages
    Set me free


    Wish you were here...

    ~RIP Dad
  • Hush now don't cry
    Wipe away the teardrop from your eye
    You're lying safe in bed
    It was all a bad dream
    Spinning in your head
    Your mind tricked you to feel the pain
    Of someone close to you leaving the game of life
    So here it is, another chance
    Wide awake you face the day
    Your dream is over...or has it just begun?

    There's a place I like to hide
    A doorway that I run to in the night
    Relax child, you were there
    But only didn't realize it and you were scared
    Its a place where you will learn
    To face your fears, retrace the tears
    And ride the whims of your mind
    Commanding in another world
    Suddenly, you hear and see
    This magic new dimension

    Chorus
    I-will be watching over you
    I-am gonna help you see it through
    I-will protect you in the night
    I-am smiling next to you...in silent lucidity

    If you open your mind for me
    You wont rely on open eyes to see
    The walls you built within
    Come tumbling down, and a new world will begin
    Living twice at once you learn
    You're safe from pain in the dream domain
    A soul set free to fly
    A round trip journey in your head
    Master of illusion, can you realize
    Your dreams alive, you can be the guide but...

    Wish you were here...

    ~RIP Dad

    When everything feels all over
    When everybody seems unkind
    I'll give you a four-leaf clover
    Take all the worry out of your mind

  • Oh he deals them off of the top. Ties them off.
    Fills it up with his past. Gets carried away.
    Oh half his life a hand me down wasted away.
    Oh he fills it up with the love of a girl.

    Oh he left it alone drilled the pain with money to buy.

    How he makes his getaway. How he makes his getaway.

    Oh he chose a path. Heavy the fall. Quarter to four.
    Fills his night with the thought of a girl.

    How he makes his getaway. How he makes his getaway.
    How he makes his getaway. Get away

    Wish you were here...

  • Friday im in love..

  • If I had to lose a mile
    If I had to touch feelings
    I would lose my soul
    The way I do

    I don't have to think
    I only have to do it
    The results are always perfect
    But that's old news.

    Would you like to hear my voice
    Sprinkled with emotion
    Invented at your birth?

    I can't see the end of me
    My whole expanse I cannot see
    I formulate infinity
    and store it deep inside of me

    If I had to lose a mile
    If I had to touch feelings
    I would lose my soul
    The way I do

    I don't have to think
    I only have to do it
    The results are always perfect
    And that's old news

    Would you like to hear my voice
    Sprinkled with emotion
    Invented at your birth?

    I can't see the end of me
    My whole expanse I cannot see

    (x2)
    I formulate infinity
    and store it deep inside of me

    Wish you were here...

  • Underneath the bridge
    The tarp has sprung a leak
    And the animals I've trapped
    Have all become my pets
    And I'm living off of grass
    And the drippings from the ceiling
    It's okay to eat fish
    'Cause they don't have any feelings

    Something in the way, mmm
    Something in the way, yeah, mmm

  • 'Instead of pictures, I take their things'
    "I'm not present, I'm a drug that makes you dream"
  • Wednesday morning at five o'clock
    as the day begins
    Silently closing her bedroom door
    Leaving the note that she hoped would say more
    She goes downstairs to the kitchen
    clutching her handkerchief
    Quietly turning the back door key
    Stepping outside she is free

    She (we gave her most of our lives)
    is leaving (sacrificed most of our lives)
    home (we gave her everything money could buy)
    She's leaving home after living alone for
    so many years (bye bye)

    Father snores as his wife gets into her dressing gown
    Picks up the letter that's lying there
    Standing alone at the top of the stairs
    She breaks down and cries to her husband
    Daddy our baby's gone
    Why would she treat us so thoughtlessly
    How could she do this to me

    She (We never thought of ourselves)
    is leaving (never a thought for ourselves)
    home (we struggled hard all our lives to get by)
    She's leaving home after living alone for
    so many years (bye bye)

    Friday morning at nine o'clock she is far away
    Waiting to keep the appointment she made
    Meeting a man from the motor trade

    She (what did we do that was wrong)
    is having (we didn't know it was wrong)
    fun (fun is the one thing that money can't buy)
    Something inside that was always denied for
    so many years (bye bye)
    She's leaving home (bye bye)

    Wish you were here...

  • I gotta take a little time, a little time to think things over
    I better read between the lines, in case I need it when I'm older

    Now this mountain I must climb, feels like the world upon my shoulders
    Through the clouds I see love shine, it keeps me warm as life grows colder

    In my life there's been heartache and pain
    I don't know if I can face it again
    Can't stop now, I've traveled so far, to change this lonely life

    I want to know what love is, I want you to show me
    I want to feel what love is, I know you can show me

    I'm gonna take a little time, a little time to look around me
    I've got nowhere left to hide, it looks like love has finally found me

    In my life there's been heartache and pain
    I don't know if I can face it again
    Can't stop now, I've traveled so far, to change this lonely life

    I want to know what love is, I want you to show me
    I want to feel what love is, I know you can show me
    I want to know what love is, I want you to show me
    (And I wanna feel) I want to feel what love is
    (And I know) I know you can show me

    Let's talk about love - I want to know what love is
    The love that you feel inside - I want you to show me
    And I'm feeling so much love - I want to feel what love is
    No, you just can't hide - I know you can show me
    I want to know what love is (let's talk about love), I know you can show me
    I wanna feel it too - I want to feel what love is
    I wanna feel it too, and I know and I know - I know you can show me
    Show me love is real, yeah - I want to know what love is...

    Wish you were here...

  • "Do wa diddy diddy dum diddy do"
    "I'm not present, I'm a drug that makes you dream"
  • Baby, don't understand
    Why we can't just live long to each other's hands
    This time might be the last, I fear
    Unless I make it all too clear
    I need you so, ohhhh...

    Take these broken wings
    And learn to fly again, learn to live free
    When we hear the voices sing
    The book of love will open up and let us in
    Take these broken wings...

    Baby, I think tonight
    We can take what is wrong and make it right
    Baby, it's all I know
    That you're half of the flesh and blood that makes me whole
    I need you so, ohhhh...

    So take these broken wings
    And learn to fly again, learn to live free
    When we hear the voices sing
    The book of love will open up and let us in
    Yeah, let us in
    Let us in!

    Baby, it's all I know
    That you're half of the flesh and blood that makes me whole
    Yeah, yeah, yeah...
    Yeah, yeah!

    So take these broken wings
    And learn to fly again, learn to live so free
    When we hear the voices sing
    The book of love will open up and let us in
    Take these broken wings
    You've got to learn to fly, learn to live and love so free
    When we hear the voices sing
    The book of love will open up for us and let us in

    Yeah, yeah!
    Ooooooh, yeah!

    Wish you were here...

  • Come and rescue me from in the water deep
    Careful now don’t lose your aim the road ahead is clear again I haven't found it yet
    You drift away so slow from in the ebb and flow
    So I landed on my feet the steadiness is bittersweet
    It feels the same when you're pushed out and away and into the crush

  • One pill makes you larger
    And one pill makes you small
    And the ones that mother gives you
    Don't do anything at all

    Go ask Alice
    When shes ten feet tall

    And if you go chasing rabbits
    And you know your going to fall
    Tell them the hookah-Smoking caterpillar
    has given you the call
    Call Alice when she was just small

    When the men on the chess board get up and tell you where to go
    And you just have some kind of mushroom
    And your mind is moving slow
    Go ask Alice
    I think she'll know

    When logic and proportion
    Have fallen four feet
    And the white knight's talking backwards
    And the Red Queen Says off with her head
    Remember what the dormouse said


    Feed your head

    Feed your head

    Wish you were here...

  • Whenever I hear your heart talking...it's a song
    "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 thats who you are,
    I saw your brown eyes turning once to fire.

    You are like a hurricane
    Theres calm in your eye.
    And Im gettin blown away
    To somewhere safer where the feeling stays.
    I want to love you but Im 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
    Theres calm in your eye.
    And Im gettin blown away
    To somewhere safer where the feeling stays.
    I want to love you but Im getting blown away..



    You are just a dreamer, and I am just a dream.

    "Constellations"

    The light was leaving
    In the west it was blue
    The children's laughter sang
    And skipping just like the stones they threw
    Their voices echoed across the way
    Its getting late

    It was just another night
    With a sunset
    And a moonrise not so far behind
    To give us just enough light
    To lay down underneath the stars
    Listen to papas translations
    Of the stories across the sky
    We drew our own constellations

    The west winds often last too long
    The wind may calm down
    Nothing ever feels the same
    Sheltered under the Kamani tree
    Waiting for the passing rain
    Clouds keep moving to uncover the scene
    Stars above us chasing the day away
    To find the stories that we sometimes need
    Listen close enough
    All else fades
    Fades away

    It was just another night
    With a sunset
    And a moonrise not so far behind
    To give us just enough light
    To lay down underneath the stars
    Listen to all the translations
    Of the stories across the sky
    We drew our own constellations
