When they came for Him in the garden, did they know?
When we meet again; Introduced as friends; Please don't let on that you knew me when; I was hungry and it was your world.
Mama, take this badge off of me
Through the wild cathedral evening the rain unraveled tales
She knows there's no success like failure; And that failure's no success at all.
I wasn't born to lose you.
Put your hand on my head, baby, do I have a temperature?
Don't you know there's nothing new that's under the sun?; Well, there ain't no man righteous, no not one.
Do you know where we're headin'?; Lincoln County Road or Armageddon?
I couldn't see what you could show me; Your scarf had kept your mouth well hid
Time is an ocean but it ends at the shore; You may not see me tomorrow.
When he died I was hopin' that it wasn't contagious
But nothing really matters much, it's doom alone that counts
Here is your throat back; Thanks for the loan
Son, this ain't a dream no more, it's the real thing.
Yes, I know now, traps are only set by me; And I do not really need to be; Assured that love is just a four-letter word
Yes, my guard stood hard when abstract threats; Too noble to neglect; Deceived me into thinking; I had something to protect
I've gained some recognition but I lost my appetite.
Time passes slowly when you're searchin' for love.
I wouldn't be ashamed to be seen with you anywhere.
Well, I wake in the morning, Fold my hands and pray for rain.; I got a head full of ideas, That are drivin' me insane.
It was true that in his later years he would not carry a gun; "I'm around too many children," he'd say, "they should never know of one."
I hear that sometimes Satan comes as a man of peace.
Well, you're so bad and nasty; But I love you, yes I do
If this is love then gimme more; And more and more and more and more.
Since every pleasure's got an edge of pain; Pay for your ticket and don't complain
Yesterday everything was going too fast; Today, it's moving too slow
God is in heaven; And we all want what's his; But power and greed and corruptible seed; Seem to be all that there is
I've paid the price of solitude, but at last I'm out of debt.
They used to grow food in Kansas; Now they want to grow it on the moon and eat it raw.; I can see the day coming when even your home garden; Is gonna be against the law.
And they're breaking down the distance; Between right and wrong.
We're both just one too many mornings; An' a thousand miles behind.
People are crazy and times are strange
'Twas then that I knew what he had on his mind.
She says, "What'll it be?"; I say, "I don't know, you got any soft boiled eggs?"
I thought somehow that I would be spared this fate
Inside the museums, Infinity goes up on trial
Once I had mountains in the palm of my hand,; And rivers that ran through ev'ry day.
goodbye's too good a word, gal; so I'll just say fare thee well
When I met you, baby,; You didn't show no visible scars.
I got new eyes ; Everything looks far away
This time tomorrow I'll know you better; When my memory is not so short.
You know, the streets are filled with vipers; Who've lost all ray of hope,; You know, it ain't even safe no more; In the palace of the Pope.
Do you ever wonder just what God requires?; You think He's just an errand boy to satisfy your wandering desires.
The night is pitch black, come an' make my; Pale face fit into place, ah, please!
if every bone in his body was broken he would never admit it
I see, I see lovers in the meadow; I see, I see silhouettes in the window; I watch them 'til they're gone and they leave me hanging on ; To a shadow
Oh, some of us'll end up; In St. Cloud Prison,; And some of us'll wind up, To be lawyers and things
Sometimes I wanna take to the road and plunder
They'll stone ya when you're at the breakfast table.
All the tired horses in the sun; How'm I supposed to get any ridin' done? Hmm.
Every time you leave and go off someplace,; Things fall to pieces in my face
She's got everything she needs,; She's an artist, she don't look back
If there's a poor boy on the street,; Then let him have my seat; 'Cause tonight I'll be staying here with you.
I'm hungry and I'm irritable; And I'm tired of this bag of tricks.; At one time there was nothing wrong with me; That you could not fix.
It was gravity which pulled us down and destiny which broke us apart
Yes, to dance beneath the diamond sky with one hand waving free,; Silhouetted by the sea, circled by the circus sands,; With all memory and fate driven deep beneath the waves,; Let me forget about today until tomorrow.
