Why do we never get an answer
When we're knocking at the door?
With a thousand million questions
About hate and death and war.
It's where we stop and look around us
There is nothing that we need.
In a world of persecution
That is burning in it's greed.
Why do we never get an answer
When we're knocking at the door?
Because the truth is hard to swallow
That's what the wall of love is for.
It's not the way
that you say it
When you do those things to me.
It's more the way
that you mean it
When you tell me what will be.
And when you stop and think about it
You won't believe it's true.
That all the love you've been giving
Has all been meant for you.
I'm looking for
someone to change my life.
I'm looking for
a miracle in my life.
And if you could see
what it's done to me
To lose the the love I knew
Could safely lead me through.
Between the silence of the mountains
And the crashing of the sea
There lies a land I once lived in
And she's waiting there for me.
But in the grey
of the morning
My mind becomes confused
Between the dead and the sleeping
And the road that I must choose.
I'm looking for
someone to change my life.
I'm looking for
a miracle in my life.
And if you could see
what it's done to me
To lose the the love I knew
Could safely lead me to
The land that I once knew.
To learn as we grow old
The secrets of our souls.
It's not the way
that you say it
When you do those things to me.
It's more the way
you really mean it
When you tell me what will be.
Why do we never get an answer
When we're knocking at the door?
With a thousand million questions
About hate and death and war.
It's where we stop and look around us
There is nothing that we need.
In a world of persecution
That is burning in it's greed.
Why do we never get an answer
When we're knocking at the door?
"You can tell the greatness of a man by what makes him angry." - Lincoln
I will light the match this mornin', so I won't be alone
Watch as she lies silent, for soon light will be gone
Oh, I will stand arms outstretched, pretend I'm free to roam
Oh, I will make my way, through, one more day in Hell...
How much difference does it make
How much difference does it make, yeah...
I will hold the candle till it burns up my arm
Oh, I'll keep takin' punches until their will grows tired
Oh, I will stare the sun down until my eyes go blind
Hey, I won't change direction, and I won't change my mind
How much difference does it make
Mmm, how much difference does it make...how much difference...
I'll swallow poison, until I grow immune
I will scream my lungs out till it fills this room
How much difference
How much difference does it make
It was an early morning yesterday
I was up before the dawn
And I really have enjoyed my stay
But I must be moving on
Like a king without a castle
Like a queen without a throne
I'm an early morning lover
And I must be moving on
Now I believe in what you say
Is the undisputed truth
But I have to have things my own way
To keep me in my youth
Like a ship without an anchor
Like a slave without a chain
Just the thought of those sweet ladies
Sends a shiver through my veins
And I will go on shining
Shining like brand new
I'll never look behind me
My troubles will be few
Goodbye stranger it's been nice
Hope you find your paradise
Tried to see your point of view
Hope your dreams will all come true
Goodbye Mary, Goodbye Jane
Will we ever meet again
Feel no sorrow, feel no shame
Come tomorrow, feel no pain
Now some they do and some they don't
And some you just can't tell
And some they will and some they won't
With some it's just as well
You can laugh at my behavior
That'll never bother me
Say the devil is my savior
But I don't pay no heed
And I will go on shining
Shining like brand new
I'll never look behind me
My troubles will be few
Goodbye stranger it's been nice
Hope you find your paradise
Tried to see your point of view
Hope your dreams will all come true
Goodbye Mary, Goodbye Jane
Will we ever meet again
Feel no sorrow, feel no shame
Come tomorrow, feel no pain
And I will go on shining
Shining like brand new
I'll never look behind me
My troubles will be few
Load up on guns,
Bring your friends
It's fun to lose and to pretend
She's overboard self assured
Oh no I know, a dirty word.
Hello, hello, hello, hello?
Hello, hello, hello, how low?
Hello, hello, how low, how low?
Hello, hello, hello.
With the lights out, it's less dangerous
Here we are now, entertain us

Here we are now, entertain us
A mulato!
An Albino!

I'm worse at what I do best
And for this gift I feel blessed
Our little group has always been
And always will until the end

And I forget just why I taste -
Oh yeah, I guess it makes me smile
I found it hard, it was hard to find
Oh well, whatever, nevermind
Hello, hello, hello, hello?
Hello, hello, hello, how low?
Hello, hello, how low, how low?

Once I was traveling across the sky
This lovely planet caught my eye
And being curious I flew close by
And now I'm caught here
Until I die
Until we die
Learning to live together
Learning to live together
Learning to live together
Till we die
I lost my memory of where I've been
We all forgot that we could fly
Someday we'll all change into peaceful man
And we'll return into the sky
Until we die
Until we die
Learning to live together
Learning to live together
Learning to live together
Till we die
Live together, yeah,
Learning to live together
Till we die
Learning to live together
Learning to live together
Learning to live together
Learning to live together
Till we die
I got an old friend, he remembers me
from way back when we we're seventeen...
we've got kids and we're older now
but, when I see him we're still seventeen...
I need the beach to set me free
I need the wind to make me breathe
I need the water to wash my soul...
Can I stay here with you til the morning
I am so far from home
And I feel a little stoned
Can I stay here till the morning
There's nothing I want more than to wake up on your floor
Lay with me in your thinnest dress
Fill my heart with each caress
Between your blissful kisses
Whisper darling is this love
Can I stay here with you till day breaks
There something you should know I ain't got no place to go
Can I stay here with you till the day breaks
How happy it would make me to see your face when I awake
Lay with me in your thinnest dress
Fill my heart with each caress
Between your blissful kisses
Whisper darling is this love
Can I stay here with you through the night time
I've fallen sad inside
And I need a place to hide
Can I stay here with you through the nighttime
I'm all alone and blue
Won't you take me to your room
Lay with me in your thinnest dress
Fill my heart with each caress
Between your blissful kisses
Whisper darling is this love
Whisper to me is this love
"I'm not present, I'm a drug that makes you dream"
Where are we?
What the hell is going on?
The dust has only just begun to fall
Crop circles in the carpet
Sinking feeling.
Spin me around again and rub my eyes
This can't be happening.
When busy streets a mess with people
Would stop to hold their heads, heavy
Hide and seek
Trains and sewing machines
All those years, they were here first
Oily marks appear on walls
Where pleasure moments hung before the takeover
The sweeping insensitivity of this still life.
Hide and seek
Trains and sewing machines
(Oh, you won't catch me around here)
Blood and tears, they were here first
Hmm, what'd you say?
Mmm, that you only meant well?
Well, of course you did.
Hmm, what'd you say?
Mmm, that it's all for the best?
Of course it is.
Hmm, what'd you say?
Mmm, that it's just what we need?
And you decided this.
What'd you say?
Hmm, what did you say?
Ransom notes keep falling out your mouth
Mid-sweet talk, newspaper word cut-outs
Speak no feeling, no, I don't believe you
You don't care a bit, you don't care a bit.
Hide and seek
You don't care a bit, no, you don't care a bit.
I admit it...what's to say...yeah...
I'll relive it...without pain...mmm...
Backseat lover on the side of the road
I got a bomb in my temple that is gonna explode
I got a sixteen gauge buried under my clothes, I pray...
Once upon a time I could CONTROL myself
Ooh, once upon a time I could LOSE myself, yeah...
Oh, try and mimic what's insane...ooh, yeah...
I am in it...where do I stand?
Oh, Indian summer and I hate the heat
I got a backstreet lover on the passenger seat
I got my hand in my pocket, so determined, discreet...I pray...
Once upon a time I could CONTROL myself
Ooh, once upon a time I could LOSE myself, yeah, yeah...
You think I got my eyes closed
But I'm lookin' at you the whole fuckin' time...

"Well, you tell him that I don't talk to suckas."
and makin love was just for fun
those days are gone...
livin alone, I think of all the friends I've known
but, when I dial the telephone
nobody's home
hard to be sure
some times I feel so insecure
and love so distant and obscure...
All by myself, don't wanna be, all by myself anymore
all by myself, don't wanna live, all by myself anymore.....
"Living is easy with eyes closed, misunderstanding all you see.
It's getting hard to be someone, but it all works out. It doesn't matter much to me."
Send my credentials to the house of detention
Is it so wrong to think that love can keep us safe?"
With the girl i love and i'm like,
FUCK YOU!!!!!!!
ain't that some shit...
:think:
"Well, you tell him that I don't talk to suckas."
Watch as she lies silent, for soon light will be gone
Oh, I will stand arms outstretched, pretend I'm free to roam

no words to calm me down

"Well, you tell him that I don't talk to suckas."
your point
of view,
So don't you shy away
Ride out the wave
"Well, you tell him that I don't talk to suckas."
you'll remember me for a day
i won't ever be your cornerstone
"Well, you tell him that I don't talk to suckas."
I must admit you kinda bore me
give me something to walk me away
i'm a waste of time
and all in all a waste of living
can't you see me walking the walk
i've been down to the horns and back
and i'm way too tired
of blowing out the burning candles
i got no money but i want you so
i got no money but i want you so
i got so much i can not handle
and all this pissing around
cutting loose in this fuckin town
i ain't comin back
i got my ticket on to the next one
i got no money but i want you so
i got no money but i want you so
"Well, you tell him that I don't talk to suckas."

That this hopeless... situation
Is what I'm trying to achieve
But I try
To run on
Towards
All or none,... all or none
Here's the selfless confession
Leading me back to war
Can we help that,.. our destinations
Are the ones we've been before
I still try
To run on
Towards all
Or none,... all or none
To myself I... surrender
To the one I'll never please
I still try,.. to run on
But I still try,.. to run on
But it's
All or none,... all or none.

You are always thinking
Brain is wide, the brain is deep
Oh, are you sinking?
Feel the path of every day
Which road you taking?
Breathing hard, making hay
Yeah, this is living
Look for love in evidence
That you're worth keeping
Swallowed whole in negatives
It's so sad and sickening
Feel the air up above
Oh, pool of blue sky
Fill the air up with love
All black with starlight
Feel the sky blanket you
With gems and rhinestones!!!
See the path cut by the moon
For you to walk on
For you to walk on...
Nothing left, nothing left
Nothing there, nothing here...
Nothing left, nothing left
Nothing there, nothing left...
Nothing left, nothing left
Nothing there, nothing here...
See the path cut by the moon
For you to walk on
See the waves on distant shores
Awaiting your arrival
Dream the dreams of other men
You'll be no one's rival
Dream the dreams of others then
You will be no one's rival
You will be no one's rival...
A distant time, a distant space
That's where we're living
A distant time, a distant place
So what ya giving?
What ya giving?
Wish you were here...
♥~RIP Dad
You were sipping through the last straw
Barely moving to the last waltz
To a symphony of my faults
Wrapped around me like a smoke ring
Had me set up like a coke sting
I'm still doing five-to-seven
Wishing liars got to heaven
"Well, you tell him that I don't talk to suckas."
