But does anyone hear the music they play
Does anyone even try?
What was it you wanted;
When you were kissing my check?
Well, there's voices in the night trying to be heard;
I'm sitting here listening to every mind polluting word
I got new eyes ;
Everything looks far away
I'll see you later when I'm not so out of my head,;
Maybe next time I'll let the dead bury the dead.
Then I'll stand on the ocean until I start sinkin',;
But I'll know my song well before I start singin'
I wish that for just one time;
You could stand inside my shoes;
You'd know what a drag it is;
To see you
I've already ripped out the phones, honey.;
You can't walk the streets in a war
Well, the road is rocky and the hillside's mud;
Up over my head nothing but clouds of blood
When you gonna wake up and strengthen the things that remain?
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.
Put my tears in a bottle
Screw the top on tight
And every time you get this close;
It makes me want to scream
to live outside the law, you must be honest
One more cup of coffee 'fore I go;
To the valley below
I don't mind a reasonable amount of trouble
The night passed away so quickly;
It always does when you're with me.
You were trying to break into another world;
A world I never knew.;
I always kind of wondered;
If you ever made it through.
I was all right 'til I fell in love with you
If you want to live easy
Baby pack your clothes with mine
I'm goin' down to Tennessee,;
Get me a truck 'r somethin'.;
Gonna save my money and rip it up!
I've been down on the bottom of a world full of lies;
I ain't looking for nothing in anyone's eyes
You should be made;
To wear earphones
The highway is for gamblers, better use your sense.;
Take what you have gathered from coincidence.
Everybody's doin' something,;
I heard it in a dream,;
But when there's too much of nothing,;
It just makes a fella mean.
she's true, like ice, like fire
Sometimes I feel so low-down and disgusted
Yes, I see you on your window ledge;
But I can't tell just how far away you are from the edge
I finally realize there's no room for regret
