Well I don't dare close my eyes and I don't dare wink;
Maybe in the next life I'll be able to hear myself think
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.
It's all been designed, he said, "To make you lose your mind,;
And when you go back to find it, there's nothing there to find."
Do I need your permission to turn the other cheek?;
If you can read my mind, why must I speak?
Then I'll stand on the ocean until I start sinkin',;
But I'll know my song well before I start singin'
I was in a whirlwind, now I'm in some better place.
I just can't fit;
Yes, I believe it's time for us to quit
Here is your throat back;
Thanks for the loan
Ain't complaining 'bout what I got;
Seen better times, but who has not?
If he needs a third eye he just grows it
I don't want to fake you out
Idiot wind, blowing through the buttons of our coats,;
Blowing through the letters that we wrote.
The sun's not yellow it's chicken
Truth is an arrow and the gate is narrow that it passes through
Time is all I have to give
She was born in spring, but I was born too late
It was then that I got up to leave;
But she said, "Don't forget,;
Everybody must give something back;
For something they get."
Gonna take dancing lessons do the jitterbug rag;
Ain't no shortcuts, gonna dress in drag;
Only a fool in here would think he's got anything to prove
Oh a false clock tries to tick out my time
In the hills of mystery,;
In the foggy web of destiny,;
You can have what's left of me,;
Where we were born in time.
He bought me with a price,;
Freed me from the pit,;
Full of emptiness and wrath;
And the fire that burns in it.
We always did feel the same,;
We just saw it from a different point of view
there are no sins inside the Gates of Eden
I feel like I'm knockin' on heaven's door.
You don't need a weather man;
To know which way the wind blows
Inside the museums, Infinity goes up on trial
Well the desert is hot, the mountain is cursed,;
Pray that I don't die of thirst,;
Baby, two feet from the well.
The night passed away so quickly;
It always does when you're with me.
