Goodnight, my love, may the lord have mercy on us all.
I said, "You know they refused Jesus, too";
He said, "You're not Him"
Senor, senor, let's disconnect these cables,;
Overturn these tables.;
This place don't make sense to me no more.
Time passes slowly when you're lost in a dream.
Time is an ocean but it ends at the shore;
You may not see me tomorrow.
For the loser now;
Will be later to win
Did I miss the mark or;
Over-step the line;
That only you could see?
I feel nothing for their game where beauty goes unrecognized
The door has closed forevermore
If indeed there ever was a door
People ask about you;
I didn't tell them everything I knew
I can change, I swear, oh, oh,;
See what you can do.;
I can make it through,;
You can make it too.
Darkness at the break of noon
I don't wanna be hers, I wanna be yours.
I know God is my shield and he won't lead me astray
I was just too stubborn to ever be governed by enforced insanity
I could say that I'd be faithful, I could say it in one sweet, easy breath;
But to you that would be cruelty and to me it surely would be death.
Yesterday everything was going too fast;
Today, it's moving too slow
Where black is the color, where none is the number
Now, don't crowd me, lady;
Or I'll fill up your shoe
What drives me to you is what drives me insane.
No time to suffer or blink;
And no time to think
Junk is piling up, taking up space
Don't the moon look good, mama, Shinin' through the trees?
Searching for my double, looking for;
Complete evaporation to the core
I been to Sugar Town, I shook the sugar down
When He rose from the dead, did they believe?
I was in a whirlwind, now I'm in some better place.
Give ya delusions of grandeur;
And a evil eye;
Give you idea that;
You're too good to die
Ain't no reason to go anywhere.
That long black cloud is comin' down
You can't get to glory by the raising and the lowering of no flag.;
Put your goodness next to God's and it comes out like a filthy rag.
You were snow, you were rain;
You were striped, you were plain,;
Go to him now, he calls you, you can't refuse
Time is all I have to give
Wealth is a filthy rag;
So erotic so unpatriotic;
So wrapped up in the American flag
Just what do you think you have to guard?
You got a lotta nerve;
To say you are my friend
Now all the criminals in their coats and their ties;
Are free to drink martinis and watch the sun rise
When you think that you lost everything;
You find out you can always lose a little more
You could make me cry if you don't know.
Everybody's doin' something,;
I heard it in a dream,;
But when there's too much of nothing,;
It just makes a fella mean.
Talk about perfection, I ain't never seen none
I still can remember the way that you smiled
This wheel shall explode!
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.
Tell her she can look me up if she's got the time.
Mona Lisa musta had the highway blues;
You can tell by the way she smiles
Now somebody's got to show their hand, time is an enemy
Reality has always had too many heads
You're the one I adore, come over here and give me more
So long, New York.;
Howdy, East Orange.
Heart of mine be still,;
You can play with fire, But you'll get the bill
All I feel is heat and flame and all I see are dark eyes.
The sun's not yellow it's chicken
Well, I wanna be your lover, baby, I don't wanna be your boss.
I saw a highway of diamonds with nobody on it
I been hangin’ on threads
I been playin’ it straight
Now, I’ve just got to cut loose
Before it gets late
