There's only one step down from here, baby,;
It's called the land of permanent bliss.
Well, anybody can be just like me, obviously;
But then, now again, not too many can be like you, fortunately.
I'm in the streets;
With the tombstone blues
I've gained some recognition but I lost my appetite.
Any day now, any day now,;
I shall be released.
Am I no longer a part of your plans or your dreams?
That's how it is when things disintegrate
I don't need no alibi when I'm spending time with you.;
I've heard all of them rumors and you have heard 'em too.
It's for myself and my friends my stories are sung.
Sometimes I wanna take to the road and plunder
Now at midnight all the agents;
And the superhuman crew;
Come out and round up everyone;
That knows more than they do
But the enemy I see
Wears a cloak of decency
I'm going out of my mind;
With a pain that stops and starts
When I met you, baby,;
You didn't show no visible scars.
Won't you descend from the throne, from where you sit?
People disagreeing on all just about everything, yeah,;
Makes you stop and all wonder why.
Love is so simple, to quote a phrase,;
You've known it all the time, I'm learnin' it these days.
All I really want to do,;
Is, baby, be friends with you.
If I could only turn back the clock to when God and her were born
All the truth in the world adds up to one big lie
I know it looks like I'm moving, but I'm standing still
Can't you make any sound?
If you don't believe there's a price for this sweet paradise, remind me to show you the, scars.
Do I need your permission to turn the other cheek?;
If you can read my mind, why must I speak?
I got new eyes ;
Everything looks far away
Nations are angry, cursed are some,;
People are expecting a false peace to come.
I fought with my twin, that enemy within, 'til both of us fell by the way.
I'm in love with a woman who don't even appeal to me
It's so impossible to even learn the tune.
