    How I wish I could walk through the doors of my mind;
    Hold memory close at hand,
    Help me understand the years....
    How I wish I could choose between Heaven and Hell.
    How I wish I would save my soul.
    I'm so cold from fear....

    More than you know, more than you know
    Lately I find you're on my mind
    More than you know

    Whether I'm right, whether I'm wrong
    I need you so
    More than you know, more than you know
    "I'm not present, I'm a drug that makes you dream"

    See the curtains hanging in the window
    In the evening on a Friday night
    A little light a-shining through the window
    Lets me know everythings alright

    Summer breeze makes me feel fine
    Blowing through the jasmine in my mind
    Summer breeze makes me feel fine
    Blowing through the jasmine in my mind

    See the paper laying on the sidewalk
    A little music from the house next door
    So I walk on up to the door step
    Through the screen and across the floor

    Summer breeze makes me feel fine
    Blowing through the jasmine in my mind
    Summer breeze makes me feel fine
    Blowing through the jasmine in my mind

    Sweet days of summer, the jasmine's in bloom
    July is dressed up and playing her tune
    When I come home from a hard days work
    And you're waiting there, not a care in the world

    See the smile a-waiting in the kitchen
    Food cooking and the plates for two
    Feel the arms that reach out to hold me
    In the evening when the day is through ....

    Summer breeze makes me feel fine
    Blowing through the jasmine in my mind
    Summer breeze makes me feel fine

    It's been awhile
    Since I can say that I wasn't addicted
    And it's been a while since I can say I love myself as well and
    And it's been a while since I've gone and fucked things up just like I always do
    And it's been a while but all that shit seems to disappear when I'm with you

    "Someway, baby, it's part of me, apart from me."
    You're laying waste to Halloween
    You fucked it friend, it's on it's head, it struck the street
    You're in Milwaukee, off your feet

    ... and at once I knew I was not magnificent
    Strayed above the highway aisle
    Jagged vacant, thick without us
    I could see for miles, miles, miles

    3rd and Lake it burnt away, the hallway
    Was where we learned to celebrate
    Automatic bought the years you'd talk for me
    That night you played me ʻLip Paradeʼ
    Not the needle, nor the thread, the lost decree
    Saying nothing, that's enough for me

    ... and at once I knew I was not magnificent

    Hulled far from the highway aisle
    (Jagged, vacance, thick with ice)
    I could see for miles, miles, miles

    Christmas night, it clutched the light, the hallow bright
    Above my brother, I entangled spines
    We smoked the screen to make it what it was to be
    Now to know it in my memory:

    ... and at once I knew I was not magnificent
    High above the highway aisle
    (Jagged vacance, thick with ice)
    I could see for miles, miles, miles
    "I'm not present, I'm a drug that makes you dream"

    I look into the mirror
    and I see someone there that I used to know.
    They all want you to serve them
    but the only one you've got to serve
    is YOUR soul.

    Well I never took the time to realize
    How much I needed love in order to survive
    I was so spoiled a princess in my time
    And your love was so deep
    And mine so blind

    You never promised me a ring made out of diamonds
    A band of gold you said was all you could buy
    You never said I'd be a rich man's lady
    And oh my darling no, you never lied

    Well I never took the time to realize
    How much I needed love in order to survive
    I was so spoiled a princess in my time
    And your love was so deep
    And mine so blind

    So close no matter how far
    Couldn't be much more from the heart
    Forever trust in who we are
    And nothing else matters

    Never opened myself this way
    Life is ours, we live it our way
    All these words I don't just say
    And nothing else matters

    Trust I seek and I find in you
    Every day for us something new
    Open mind for a different view
    And nothing else matters

    Never cared for what they do
    Never cared for what they know
    But I know

    So close no matter how far
    Couldn't be much more from the heart
    Forever trusting who we are
    And nothing else matters

    Never cared for what they do
    Never cared for what they know
    But I know

    I never opened myself this way
    Life is ours, we live it our way
    All these words I don't just say
    And nothing else matters

    Trust I seek and I find in you
    Every day for us something new
    Open mind for a different view
    And nothing else matters

    Never cared for what they say
    Never cared for games they play
    Never cared for what they do
    Never cared for what they know
    And I know (yeah!)

    So close no matter how far
    Couldn't be much more from the heart
    Forever trust in who we are
    No nothing else matters

    So, so you think you can tell Heaven from Hell,
    blue skies from pain.
    Can you tell a green field from a cold steel rail?
    A smile from a veil?
    Do you think you can tell?
    And did they get you to trade your heroes for ghosts?
    Hot ashes for trees?
    Hot air for a cool breeze?
    Cold comfort for change?
    And did you exchange a walk on part in the war for a lead role in a cage?
    How I wish, how I wish you were here.
    We're just two lost souls swimming in a fish bowl, year after year,
    Running over the same old ground.
    What have we found? The same old fears.
    Wish you were here.

    Wish you were here...

    A good song for today. :)

    Love boat captain
    Take the reigns and steer us towards the clear,... here.
    It's already been sung, but it can't be said enough.
    All you need is love

    Hey... oooh...
    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'll be... yeah...
    Uh huh... uh huh... ooh...

    I know someday you'll have a beautiful life,
    I know you'll be a sun in somebody else's sky, but why
    Why, why can't it be, can't it be mine

    Aah... uuh..

    Too doo doo too, too doo doo

    Wish you were here...

    They say time will
    Make all this go away
    But it's time that has taken my tomorrows
    And turned them into yesterdays

    Before you slip into unconsciousness
    I'd like to have another kiss
    Another flashing chance at bliss
    Another kiss, another kiss

    The days are bright and filled with pain
    Enclose me in your gentle rain
    The time you ran was too insane
    We'll meet again, we'll meet again

    Oh tell me where your freedom lies
    The streets are fields that never die
    Deliver me from reasons why
    You'd rather cry, I'd rather fly

    The crystal ship is being filled
    A thousand girls, a thousand thrills
    A million ways to spend your time
    When we get back, I'll drop a line

    Wish you were here...

    One set of doors was the color of honey
    One set of doors was pink and grey
    Well I wonder which set is mine, said she

    When I was four years old
    They tried to test my I.Q.
    They showed me a picture of 3 oranges and a pear
    They said, which one is different?
    It does not belong
    They taught me different is wrong
    But when I was 13 years old
    I woke up one morning
    Thighs covered in blood
    Like a war
    Like a warning
    That I live in a breakable takeable body
    An ever-increasingly valuable body
    That a woman had come in the night to replace me
    Deface me
    See, my body is borrowed
    Yeah, I got it on loan
    For the time in between my mom and some maggots
    I don't need anyone to hold me
    I can hold my own
    I got highways for stretchmarks
    See where I've grown
    I sing sometimes
    Like my life is at stake
    'Cause you're only as loud
    As the noises you make
    I'm learning to laugh as hard
    As I can listen
    'Cause silence
    Is violence
    In women and poor people
    If more people were screaming then I could relax
    But a good brain ain't diddley
    If you don't have the facts
    We live in a breakable takeable world
    An ever available possible world
    And we can make music
    Like we can make do
    Genius is in a back beat
    Backseat to nothing if you're dancing
    Especially something stupid
    Like I.Q.
    For every lie I unlearn
    I learn something new
    I sing sometimes for the war that I fight
    'Cause every tool is a weapon -
    If you hold it right.

    Well if I ever see the morning
    Just like a lizard in the spring
    I’m gonna run out in the meadow
    To catch the silence when it sings

    I’m gonna force the Serengeti
    To disappear into my eyes
    Then when I hear your voices callin’
    I’m gonna turn just inside out

    Well if I ever get to slumber
    Just like a mole deep in the ground
    Hell, I won’t be found

    Deep in the dust forgotten gathered
    I grow a diamond in my chest
    I make reflections as the moon shines on
    Turn to a villain as I rest

    Well if I ever get to slumber
    Just like a mole deep in the ground
    Hell, I won’t be found

    I know there is a hollow
    I need to fill it with a draft
    Of all the words that I wont way
    And with a quiet whisper
    I send a curse upon the day
    That never used the sun to see
    The light

    I’m gonna float up in the ceiling
    I built a levee of the stars
    And in my field of tired horses
    I built a freeway through this farce

    Well if I ever get that slumber
    Ill be that mole deep in the ground
    And I won’t be found

    You know the bed feels warmer
    Sleeping here alone
    You know I dream in color
    And do the things I want

    You think you got the best of me
    Think you've had the last laugh
    Bet you think that everything good is gone
    Think you left me broken down
    Think that I'd come running back
    Baby you don't know me, cause you're dead wrong

    What doesn't kill you makes you stronger
    Stand a little taller
    Doesn't mean I'm lonely when I'm alone
    What doesn't kill you makes a fighter
    Footsteps even lighter
    Doesn't mean I'm over cause you're gone

    What doesn't kill you makes you stronger, stronger
    Just me, myself and I
    What doesn't kill you makes you stronger
    Stand a little taller
    Doesn't mean I'm lonely when I'm alone

    You heard that I was starting over with someone new
    They told you I was moving on, over you

    You didn't think that I'd come back
    I'd come back swinging
    You try to break me, but you see

    What doesn't kill you makes you stronger
    Stand a little taller
    Doesn't mean I'm lonely when I'm alone
    What doesn't kill you makes a fighter
    Footsteps even lighter
    Doesn't mean I'm over cause you're gone

    Thanks to you I got a new thing started
    Thanks to you I'm not the broken-hearted
    Thanks to you I'm finally thinking about me
    You know in the end the day you left was just my beginning
    In the end...

    Wish you were here...

    "The Sacred And Profane"

    Give me tears
    Give me love
    Let me rest
    Lord above
    Send the bored
    Your restless
    The feedback scarred
    Devotionless
    You're all a part of me now
    And if I fall
    You're all a part of me now
    In the sun
    You're all a part of me now
    You're all a part of me now
    Will our love ever be enough
    Just in time to prove
    Will our words ever be enough
    Just in time to lose
    Give me sight
    And barren breast
    Pure snow and happiness
    Give me time
    Give me peace
    And I will prove
    My release
    You're all a part of me now
    And if I fall
    You're all a part of me now
    Trapped in the sun
    You're all a part of me now
    You're all a part of me now
    Will our love ever be enough
    Just in time to prove
    Will our time ever be enough
    Will out love ever be enough
    You're all a part of me now
    And if I fall
    You're all a part of me now
    In the sun
    You're all a part of me now
    You're all a part of me now
    You're all a part of me now
    And if I fall
    You're all a part of me now
    Trapped in the sun
    You're all a part of me now
    Will our love ever be enough
    Just in time to prove

    There was no message to be found anywhere in sight
    Inside or out
    I had looked everywhere but the only lamp left on in the house
    Was a blue light... a blue light

    I was not ready... I'm no enchantress well I was too proud
    Go find some Christmas angel then give that to her
    If that's what she wants...guardian angel
    Guardian... if you were wiser you would get out

    Downstairs the big old house is mine
    Upstairs where the stars still laugh and they shine
    Downstairs where the big old house is mine
    Outside where the stars still laughin'

    I waited patiently for the Lord
    He inclined and heard my cry.
    He brought me right out of the pit,
    out of my miry clay.
    I will sing a new song,
    How long to sing this song?
    He set my feet upon a rock,
    and made my footsteps heard.
    Many will see,
    Many will see and fear.
    I will sing, sing a new song.
    How long to sing this song?

    :)

    Got no diamond, got no pearl,
    Still I think I'm a lucky girl.
    I've got the sun in the morning
    And the moon at night.
    Got no mansion, got no yacht,
    Still I'm happy with what I got.
    I've got the sun in the morning
    And the moon at night

    Sunshine gives me a lovely day,
    Moonlight gives me the Milky Way.
    Got no checkbooks, got no banks,
    Still, I'd like to express my thanks.
    I've got the sun in the morning
    And the moon at night.
    And with the sun in the morning
    And the moon in the evening
    I'm alright.

    Got no butler, got no maid.
    Still I think I've been overpaid,
    I've got the sun in the morning
    And the moon at night.
    Got no silver, got no gold,
    What you've got can't be bought or sold.
    I've got the sun in the morning
    And the moon at night.

    Sunshine gives me a lovely day,
    Moonlight gives me the Milky Way.
    Got no heirlooms for my kin,
    Made no will but when I cash in
    I'll leave the sun in the morning
    And the moon at night.
    And with the sun in the morning
    And the moon in the evening
    I'm alright.

    I'm tired
    I'm thirsty
    I'm wild-eyed
    In my misery
    Timeless
    In your finery
    It's a high price
    For your luxury

    Who is the master
    Man and woman on a star stream
    In the middle of a snow dream
    Sorcerer
    Show me the high life
    Come over
    Let me put you on ice

    All around
    Black ink darkness
    Who found
    The lady from the mountain
    The lady from the mountain

    I'm tired
    I need you badly
    I'm wild-eyed
    In my misery
    Timeless
    In your finery
    It's a high price
    For your luxury

    Who is the master
    Man and woman on a star stream
    In the middle of a snow dream

    Black ink darkness
    Who found
    The lady from the mountain
    All around
    Black ink darkness
    Who found
    The lady from the mountain
    The lady from the mountain

    Oo won't you tell me who found
    Lady from the mountain
    Oo why you tell me who found
    Wild-eyed in my mysery
    Tired
    Thirsty
    Wild-eyed

    There's nothing here that I can understand
    And no one cares I'm a lonely man
    I touch your face and I don't know why
    I call your name but you're going by
    Now I'm alone again.

    I have no name for each and every day
    Until the year is done and fades away
    There's a time in between the two
    The old years gone by but it's not the new
    And I, I, I...

    I know that'll be all
    Alone again, alone again tonight oh I'm
    Alone again, alone again tonight oh I'm
    Alone again, and it seems to me that every time I try to change
    Say that you're say that you'll
    Help me reach the other side

    When the morning comes the sun is out
    And warms me up again
    What a funny world it is for me
    And all I'll never be

    It's not enough, it's not enough
    This feeling I'm feeling inside
    Oh I know it I know tonight that I'll be

    On my own tonight, alone again tonight
    Oh I'm alone again, alone again tonight
    Oh I'm alone again, and it seems to me that everytime I try to change
    Say that you'll, say that you'll
    Help me reach the other side
    Help me please cos I know I'm gonna be
    On my own again alone again tonight...
