The night is pitch black, come an' make my; Pale face fit into place, ah, please!
People tell me it's a sin; To know and feel too much within.
I don't need no alibi when I'm spending time with you.; I've heard all of them rumors and you have heard 'em too.
Leaving men wholly, totally free; To do anything they wish to do but die
But the enemy I see
Wears a cloak of decency
don't criticize; what you can't understand.
There's no one here, the gardener is gone
Your loyalty is not to me; But to the stars above
It was gravity which pulled us down and destiny which broke us apart
A million faces at my feet; But all I see are dark eyes
The angels play on their horns all day,; The whole earth in progression seems to pass by.; But does anyone hear the music they play,; Does anyone even try?
People disagreeing everywhere you look,; Makes you wanna stop and read a book.
Something there is about you that brings back a long forgotten truth
My head tells me it's time to make a change; But my heart is telling me I love ya but you're strange.
Talk about perfection, I ain't never seen none
I need a steam shovel mama to keep away the dead
I see you kiss her on the cheek ev'rytime she gives a speech
When you cease to exist, then who will you blame?; I've tried my best to love you, but I cannot play this game; Your best friend and my worst enemy is one and the same
And they're breaking down the distance; Between right and wrong.
When you got nothing, you got nothing to lose
Every time you leave and go off someplace,; Things fall to pieces in my face
All he believes are his eyes, And his eyes, they just tell him lies
Two riders were approaching, the wind began to howl.
My feet are so tired, my brain is so wired
Whatever you gonna do,; Please do it fast.
If dogs run free, why not me; Across the swamp of time?
We grew up together; From the cradle to the grave; We died and were reborn; And then mysteriously saved.
Wiggle 'til you're high, wiggle 'til you're higher,; Wiggle 'til you vomit fire
All I really want to do,; Is, baby, be friends with you.
People on the platforms; Waiting for the trains; I can hear their hearts a-beatin'; Like pendulums swinging on chains
I fought with my twin, that enemy within, 'til both of us fell by the way.
Dark Beauty; Meet me at the border late tonight
I gotta go; Find out something only dead men know
Won't you descend from the throne, from where you sit?
And then you told me later, as I apologized; That you were just kiddin' me, you weren't really from the farm
Try to be pure at heart, they arrest you for robbery,; Mistake your shyness for aloofness, your shyness for snobbery
And you never ask questions; When God's on your side.
I've still got the scars that the sun didn't heal
Some things last longer than you think they will; There are some kind of things you can never kill
Don't have to look no further, you're the soul of many things.
Now at midnight all the agents; And the superhuman crew; Come out and round up everyone; That knows more than they do
On the rising curve,; Where the ways of nature will test every nerve,; You won't get anything you don't deserve,; Where we were born in time.
For I know that you know that I know that you know; Something is tearing up your mind.
Put your ear to the train tracks, put your ear to the ground,; You ever feel like you're never alone even when there's nobody else around?; Since the beginning of the universe man's been cursed by trouble.
Reality has always had too many heads
Seen the arrow on the doorpost; Saying, "This land is condemned; All the way from New Orleans; To Jerusalem."
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
Could you ever be true?
What good am I if I say foolish things; And I laugh in the face of what sorrow brings; And I just turn my back while you silently die,; What good am I?
We stare straight ahead and try so hard to stay right
How can I explain?; Oh, it's so hard to get on
He looks so truthful, is this how he feels; Trying to peel the moon and expose it
Saw you drift into infinity and come back again
Ain't no altars on this long and lonesome road
Lookin' at my shadow watching the colors up above
I see people in the park forgetting their troubles and woes; They're drinking and dancing, wearing bright colored clothes; All the young men with their young women looking so good; Well, I'd trade places with any of them ; In a minute, if I could
It's many a guard; That stands around smilin',; Holdin' his club; Like he was a king.
