She was with Big Jim but she was leanin' to the Jack of Hearts
Because something is happening here; But you don't know what it is; Do you, Mister Jones?
One more cup of coffee 'fore I go; To the valley below
We're going all the way 'til the wheels fall off and burn
Not one more night, not one more kiss,; Not this time baby, no more of this,; Takes too much skill, takes too much will,; It's revealing.
If you get close to her, kiss her once for me
My feet are so tired, my brain is so wired
Reality has always had too many heads
I stood alone upon the ridge and all I did was watch.
I was just too stubborn to ever be governed by enforced insanity
How did I meet you? I don't know.
You're the other half of what I am, you're the missing piece
Truth is an arrow and the gate is narrow that it passes through
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
Won't you descend from the throne, from where you sit?
Let the wind blow low, let the wind blow high.; One day the little boy and the little girl were both baked in a pie.
I can smile in the face of mankind.; Don't even remember what her lips felt like on mine; Most of the time.
Try imagining a place where it's always safe and warm.
Some things are too hot to touch; The human mind can only stand so much
You don't want a love that's pure; You wanna drown love; You want a watered-down love
I hear that sometimes Satan comes as a man of peace.
Whatever you gonna do,; Please do it fast.
it is not he or she or them or it; That you belong to.
Ain't it just like the night to play tricks when you're tryin' to be so quiet?
The night passed away so quickly; It always does when you're with me.
Now there's spiritual warfare and flesh and blood breaking down.; Ya either got faith or ya got unbelief and there ain't no neutral ground.
Some things in life, it gets too late to learn
I feel nothing for their game where beauty goes unrecognized
I can tell you fancy, I can tell you plain; You give something up for everything you gain
All my friends have told me; If I hang around with you; That I'll go blind
They tell me everything is gonna be all right; But I don't know what "all right" even means
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.
False-hearted judges dying in the webs that they spin,; Only a matter of time 'til night comes steppin' in.
Let's try to get beneath the surface waste, girl,; No more booby traps and bombs,; No more decadence and charm,; No more affection that's misplaced, girl
Thought I'd shaken the wonder and the phantoms of my youth
Idiot wind, blowing through the buttons of our coats,; Blowing through the letters that we wrote.
I been hangin’ on threads
I been playin’ it straight
Now, I’ve just got to cut loose
Before it gets late
I'm in the streets; With the tombstone blues
take me disappearin' through the smoke rings of my mind
The sky is erupting, I must go where it's quiet.
Sometimes I wonder what it's gonna take; To find dignity
And, when I was through; I filled up my shoe; And brought it to you.
Wealth is a filthy rag; So erotic so unpatriotic; So wrapped up in the American flag
Then I'll stand on the ocean until I start sinkin',; But I'll know my song well before I start singin'
Just do your thing, you'll be king; If dogs run free.
Everybody is making love
Or else expecting rain
the cops don't need you; and man they expect the same
if there's an original thought out there, I could use it right now
When the last rays of daylight go down; Buddy, you'll roll no more; I can hear the church bells ringing in the yard; I wonder who they're ringing for
Train wheels runnin' through the back of my memory
Do I need your permission to turn the other cheek?; If you can read my mind, why must I speak?
I can't provide for you no easy answers,; Who are you that I should have to lie?
There's only one step down from here, baby,; It's called the land of permanent bliss.
Man's ego is inflated, his laws are outdated, they don't apply no more
Wallflower, wallflower; Take a chance on me.; Please let me ride you home.
And I can't let go, won't let go, and I can't let go no more.
