it is not he or she or them or it; That you belong to.
Some things are too hot to touch; The human mind can only stand so much
And I'll tell it and think it and speak it and breathe it
If I had wings and I could fly,; I know where I would go.
Dark Beauty; Meet me at the border late tonight
Don't trust me to show you the truth; When the truth may only be ashes and dust.
Yes, my guard stood hard when abstract threats; Too noble to neglect; Deceived me into thinking; I had something to protect
So take heed, take heed of the western wind
I fought with my twin, that enemy within, 'til both of us fell by the way.
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
In the home of the brave, Jefferson turnin' over in his grave
Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle like a bowl of soup
Because something is happening here; But you don't know what it is; Do you, Mister Jones?
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?
All the people we used to know; Are an illusion to me now
Time is a jet plane, it moves too fast;
Oh, but what a shame if all we've shared can't last.
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.
Now all the criminals in their coats and their ties; Are free to drink martinis and watch the sun rise
Ain't complaining 'bout what I got; Seen better times, but who has not?
Well the desert is hot, the mountain is cursed,; Pray that I don't die of thirst,; Baby, two feet from the well.
Can't you make any sound?
Scorpio Sphinx in a calico dress
The man in me will hide sometimes to keep from bein' seen,; But that's just because he doesn't want to turn into some machine.
May you have a strong foundation; When the winds of changes shift
I'll see you later when I'm not so out of my head,; Maybe next time I'll let the dead bury the dead.
There's no one here, the gardener is gone
Put my tears in a bottle
Screw the top on tight
They got him on conspiracy, they were never sure who with.
Put your hand on my head, baby, do I have a temperature?
A million faces at my feet; But all I see are dark eyes
Sometimes I wonder what it's gonna take; To find dignity
Well, You've done it all and there's no more anyone can pretend to do.; What can I do for You?
When destruction cometh swiftly; And there's no time to say a fare-thee-well,; Have you decided whether you want to be; In heaven or in hell?
Turn your back, wash your hands,; There's always someone who understands
Well, I got a harmonica job, begun to play,; Blowin' my lungs out for a dollar a day.
As the last fire truck from hell; Goes rolling by, all good people are praying
Something there is about you that brings back a long forgotten truth
Senor, senor, let's disconnect these cables,; Overturn these tables.; This place don't make sense to me no more.
take me disappearin' through the smoke rings of my mind
Mama, take this badge off of me
They said it was the land of milk and honey,; now they say it's the land of money.; Who ever thought they could ever make that stick.
When I'm all alone; In the great unknown,; I'll remember you.
Goodnight, my love, may the lord have mercy on us all.
When he died I was hopin' that it wasn't contagious
While my conscience explodes; The harmonicas play the skeleton keys and the rain
Somethin' there is about you that I can't quite put my finger on.
The pump don't work; 'Cause the vandals took the handles
People are crazy and times are strange
Well my sense of humanity has gone down the drain
They used to grow food in Kansas; Now they want to grow it on the moon and eat it raw.; I can see the day coming when even your home garden; Is gonna be against the law.
Betrayed by a kiss on a cool night of bliss; In the valley of the missing link
Have I surrendered to the will of God; Or am I still acting like the boss?
I know God is my shield and he won't lead me astray
The country music station plays soft; but there's nothing, really nothing, to turn off
Well my nerves are exploding and my body's tense; I feel like the whole world got me pinned up against the fence
Soon as a man is born, you know the sparks begin to fly, He gets wise in his own eyes and he's made to believe a lie.
I've been walking through the middle of nowhere; Trying to get to heaven before they close the door
