But it's like I'm stuck inside a painting; That's hanging in the Louvre
Truth is an arrow and the gate is narrow that it passes through
Your mind is your temple, keep it beautiful and free,; Don't let an egg get laid in it by something you can't see.
My so-called friends have fallen under a spell.; They look me squarely in the eye and they say, "All is well."; Can they imagine the darkness that will fall from on high; When men will beg God to kill them and they won't be able to die?
When you think that you lost everything; You find out you can always lose a little more
Now you stand here expectin' me to remember somethin' you forgot to say
Now all the criminals in their coats and their ties; Are free to drink martinis and watch the sun rise
I ain't sayin' you treated me unkind; You could have done better but I don't mind; You just kinda wasted my precious time
It's mighty funny; the end of time has just begun
They got him on conspiracy, they were never sure who with.
Trees that've stood for a thousand years suddenly will fall.
I feel like I'm knockin' on heaven's door.
Do I need your permission to turn the other cheek?; If you can read my mind, why must I speak?
Oh, man has invented his doom, First step was touching the moon.
It was gravity which pulled us down and destiny which broke us apart
Go 'way from my window,; Leave at your own chosen speed.
Somebody's got to find your trail,; I guess it must be up to me.
Don't you cry and don't you die and don't you burn
You're so damn nonchalant; But it's your mind that I want.
If you get close to her, kiss her once for me
What makes the wind wanna blow tonight?
As the last fire truck from hell; Goes rolling by, all good people are praying
Today on the countryside it was a-hotter than a crotch
Everything passes,; Everything changes,; Just do what you think you should do.
Don’t think twice, it’s all right
I'm glad to see you're still alive, you're lookin' like a saint.
My love she speaks like silence
Everybody's doin' something,; I heard it in a dream,; But when there's too much of nothing,; It just makes a fella mean.
If your mem'ry serves you well,; You'll remember you're the one; That called on me to call on them; To get you your favors done.
Always on the outside of whatever side there was,; When they asked him why it had to be that way, "Well," he answered, "just because."
Heart of mine be still,; You can play with fire, But you'll get the bill
People disagreeing everywhere you look,; Makes you wanna stop and read a book.
They tell me revenge is sweet and from where they stand, I'm sure it is.
People tell me it's a sin; To know and feel too much within.
You're invisible now, you got no secrets to conceal.
That long black cloud is comin' down
People ask about you; I didn't tell them everything I knew
When I'm all alone; In the great unknown,; I'll remember you.
As his youth now unfolds; He is centuries old; Just to see him at play makes me smile; No matter what happens to me; No matter what my destiny; Lord, protect my child
'Twas then that I knew what he had on his mind.
Here is your throat back; Thanks for the loan
I'm already there in my mind; And that's good enough for now
Mama, take this badge off of me
You don't want a love that's pure; You wanna drown love; You want a watered-down love
We stare straight ahead and try so hard to stay right
Don't the moon look good, mama, Shinin' through the trees?
I still can remember the way that you smiled
When He rose from the dead, did they believe?
I've paid the price of solitude, but at last I'm out of debt.
And then you told me later, as I apologized; That you were just kiddin' me, you weren't really from the farm
All the tired horses in the sun; How'm I supposed to get any ridin' done? Hmm.
if there's an original thought out there, I could use it right now
I'm in love with a woman who don't even appeal to me
Without freedom of speech, I might be in the swamp.
she's true, like ice, like fire
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?
