We grew up together;
From the cradle to the grave;
We died and were reborn;
And then mysteriously saved.
And I can't let go, won't let go, and I can't let go no more.
All he believes are his eyes, And his eyes, they just tell him lies
They said it was the land of milk and honey,;
now they say it's the land of money.;
Who ever thought they could ever make that stick.
If you want to live easy
Baby pack your clothes with mine
Cities on fire, phones out of order
If he needs a third eye he just grows it
What's lost is lost, we can't regain what went down in the flood
If you don't believe there's a price for this sweet paradise, remind me to show you the, scars.
I stood alone upon the ridge and all I did was watch.
Well, I wanna be your lover, baby, I don't wanna be your boss.
Today on the countryside it was a-hotter than a crotch
I can't help it if I'm lucky.
You were snow, you were rain;
You were striped, you were plain,;
Go to him now, he calls you, you can't refuse
Well, anybody can be just like me, obviously;
But then, now again, not too many can be like you, fortunately.
I'm glad to see you're still alive, you're lookin' like a saint.
Man's ego is inflated, his laws are outdated, they don't apply no more
The highway is for gamblers, better use your sense.;
Take what you have gathered from coincidence.
Go melt back into the night, babe,;
Everything inside is made of stone.;
There's nothing in here moving, An' anyway I'm not alone.
Someone showed me a picture and I just laughed;
Dignity never been photographed
For I know that you know that I know that you know;
Something is tearing up your mind.
My conscience is beginning to bother me today.
You could make me cry if you don't know.
I'll remember you;
At the end of the trail,;
I had so much left to do,;
I had so little time to fail.
Once I had mountains in the palm of my hand,;
And rivers that ran through ev'ry day.
Sometimes the devil likes to drive you from the neighborhood.;
He'll even work his ways through those whose intentions are good.
Gon' walk on down until I'm right beside the sun;
I'm gonna have to put up a barrier to keep myself away from everyone.
Guess it's too late to say the things to you;
That you needed to hear me say.
