Turn your back, wash your hands,; There's always someone who understands
The truth was obscure, too profound and too pure, to live it you have to explode.
And you, you took me in,; You loved me then; You didn't waste time.
You will search, babe, At any cost.; But how long, babe, Can you search for what's not lost?
People carry roses
Make promises by the hours
My love she laughs like the flowers
Valentines can't buy her
Thought I'd shaken the wonder and the phantoms of my youth
Temptation's not an easy thing
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?
It was gravity which pulled us down and destiny which broke us apart
In the day of confession; We cannot mock a soul.; Oh, when there's too much of nothing,; No one has control.
Shall I hold you close?; Or Shall I let you go by?; Tell me.; Tell me.
'Cause he doesn't tell you jokes or fairy tales, say he's got no style.
For I know that you know that I know that you know; Something is tearing up your mind.
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
Wealth is a filthy rag; So erotic so unpatriotic; So wrapped up in the American flag
You know, news of you has come down the line; Even before ya came in the door.; They say in your father's house, there's many mansions; Each one of them got a fireproof floor.
Gon' walk on down that dirt road 'til I'm right beside the sun
I got new eyes ; Everything looks far away
This is the key to the kingdom and this is the town; This is the blind horse that leads you around
Man's ego is inflated, his laws are outdated, they don't apply no more
Whatever you wanted; Slipped out of my mind
Won't you come with me, baby?; I'll take you where you wanna go.; And if it don't work out, You'll be the first to know
How long can I stay drunk on fear out in the wilderness?
I just want you to know; I can see through your masks
You think you can hide but you're never alone,; Ask Lot what he thought when his wife turned to stone.
The way is long but the end is near, Already the fiesta has begun
I still can remember the way that you smiled
Oh my name it is nothin'; My age it means less
In the smoke of the twilight on a milk-white steed,; Michelangelo indeed could've carved out your features.
In the home of the brave, Jefferson turnin' over in his grave
I got troubles, I think maybe you got troubles,; I think maybe we'd better leave each other alone.
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
Well it's way past midnight and there are people all around; Some on their way up, some on their way down
Wiggle 'til you're high, wiggle 'til you're higher,; Wiggle 'til you vomit fire
In the fury of the moment I can see the Master's hand; In every leaf that trembles, in every grain of sand.
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.
They say ev'rything can be replaced
If you're a doctor, I need a shot of love.
Most of the time; I can't even be sure; If she was ever with me; Or if I was with her.
When there is no more,; You cut to the core; Quicker than anyone I knew.
I'm in love with the Ugliest Girl in the World
No knife could ever cut our love apart
And every time you get this close; It makes me want to scream
What happened to the real you, you've been captured but by whom?
I'm goin' down to Tennessee,; Get me a truck 'r somethin'.; Gonna save my money and rip it up!
People ask about you; I didn't tell them everything I knew
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
Roses are red, violets are blue; And time is beginning to crawl
She still lives inside of me, we've never been apart.
People tell me it's a sin; To know and feel too much within.
Never could learn to drink that blood; And call it wine
And they're breaking down the distance; Between right and wrong.
