I don't need any reminder;
To know how much I really care
Now, when I was just a bawlin' child,;
I saw what I wanted to be
What makes the wind wanna blow tonight?
Well, I'm livin' in a foreign country but I'm bound to cross the line,;
Beauty walks a razor's edge, someday I'll make it mine.
Well, I try my best;
To be just like I am,;
But everybody wants you;
To be just like them.
And the words that are used;
For to get the ship confused;
Will not be understood as they're spoken.
She knows where I'd like to be;
But it doesn't matter.
Won't you descend from the throne, from where you sit?
My feet are so tired, my brain is so wired
The man in me will hide sometimes to keep from bein' seen,;
But that's just because he doesn't want to turn into some machine.
Just do your thing, you'll be king;
If dogs run free.
Don't have to look no further, you're the soul of many things.
But the enemy I see
Wears a cloak of decency
When I'm all alone;
In the great unknown,;
I'll remember you.
Son, this ain't a dream no more, it's the real thing.
Wiggle 'til you're high, wiggle 'til you're higher,;
Wiggle 'til you vomit fire
I'm T-boned and punctured;
But I'm known to be calm
Inside the museums, Infinity goes up on trial
You can't get to glory by the raising and the lowering of no flag.;
Put your goodness next to God's and it comes out like a filthy rag.
All the people we used to know;
Are an illusion to me now
Now, I can't go back to what was, baby,;
I can't unring the bell.
Well my house is on fire, burning to the sky
I can't provide for you no easy answers,;
Who are you that I should have to lie?
Well it's way past midnight and there are people all around;
Some on their way up, some on their way down
We sat in an empty theater and we kissed,;
I asked ya please to cross me off-a your list.
At dawn my lover comes to me;
And tells me of her dreams;
With no attempts to shovel the glimpse;
Into the ditch of what each one means
Everybody's doin' something,;
I heard it in a dream,;
But when there's too much of nothing,;
It just makes a fella mean.
I feel like I'm knockin' on heaven's door.
