I must be guilty of something,;
You just whisper it into my ear.
I feel nothing for their game where beauty goes unrecognized
Put my tears in a bottle
Screw the top on tight
The door has closed forevermore
If indeed there ever was a door
But the enemy I see
Wears a cloak of decency
time is running backwards
What happened to the real you, you've been captured but by whom?
You got a lotta nerve;
To say you are my friend
He said, Are you lookin' for somethin' easy to catch?;
I said, I got no money. He said, That ain't necessary.
Ain't complaining 'bout what I got;
Seen better times, but who has not?
All I feel is heat and flame and all I see are dark eyes.
Something there is about you that brings back a long forgotten truth
And now the heart is filled with gold;
As if it was a purse.;
But, oh, what kind of love is this;
Which goes from bad to worse?
When you know as well as me;
You'd rather see me paralyzed
Nations are angry, cursed are some,;
People are expecting a false peace to come.
Let me ask you one question;
Is your money that good
take me disappearin' through the smoke rings of my mind
They don't want me around;
'Cause I believe in you.
Searching for my double, looking for;
Complete evaporation to the core
Don't the moon look good, mama, Shinin' through the trees?
The ghost of 'lectricity howls in the bones of her face
And then you told me later, as I apologized;
That you were just kiddin' me, you weren't really from the farm
Oh, jewels and binoculars hang from the head of the mule
So long, New York.;
Howdy, East Orange.
There's always some new stranger sneakin' glances,;
Some trigger-happy fool willin' to take chances
I don't need any reminder;
To know how much I really care
Democracy don't rule the world,;
You'd better get that in your head.;
This world is ruled by violence;
But I guess that's better left unsaid.
They tell me everything is gonna be all right;
But I don't know what "all right" even means
We always did feel the same,;
We just saw it from a different point of view
