Trees that've stood for a thousand years suddenly will fall.
Forget the dead you've left, they will not follow you.
I hear that sometimes Satan comes as a man of peace.
Don't know if I saw you, if I would kiss you or kill you; It probably wouldn't matter to you anyhow
There's some people that; You don't forget,; Even though you've only seen'm; One time or two.
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
Do you ever wonder just what God requires?; You think He's just an errand boy to satisfy your wandering desires.
You're invisible now, you got no secrets to conceal.
I have dined with kings, I've been offered wings, And I've never been too impressed.
Oh my name it is nothin'; My age it means less
I see nothing to be gained by any explanation; There are no words that need to be said
I'll give you more gold; Than your apron can hold; If you'll only let your hair hang low
Well, I spied a girl and before she could leave,; "Let's go and play Adam and Eve."; I took her by the hand and my heart it was thumpin'; When she said, "Hey man, you crazy or sumpin',; You see what happened last time they started."
Now, a very great man once said; That some people rob you with a fountain pen.; It didn't take too long to find out; Just what he was talkin' about.
Now, I can't go back to what was, baby,; I can't unring the bell.
It's too bright a light, he said, "For anybody's eyes,; If you've never seen one it's a blessing in disguise."
I fought with my twin, that enemy within, 'til both of us fell by the way.
I'm in a cowboy band
She once was a true love of mine
Turn your back, wash your hands,; There's always someone who understands
It's the last temptation; The last account; The last time you might hear the sermon on the mount,; The last radio is playing.
if there's an original thought out there, I could use it right now
The drinks are ready and the dogs are going to war
All the laughter is just making me sad
There's no one here, the gardener is gone
Temptation's not an easy thing
Oh the fishes will laugh; As they swim out of the path; And the seagulls they'll be smiling.
I don't wanna be hers, I wanna be yours.
Goodnight, my love, may the lord have mercy on us all.
The world of illusion is at my door
When you know as well as me; You'd rather see me paralyzed
An' here I sit so patiently; Waiting to find out what price; You have to pay to get out of; Going through all these things twice.
to live outside the law, you must be honest
Then I'll stand on the ocean until I start sinkin',; But I'll know my song well before I start singin'
I saw a highway of diamonds with nobody on it
It's all been designed, he said, "To make you lose your mind,; And when you go back to find it, there's nothing there to find."
This time tomorrow I'll know you better; When my memory is not so short.
The walls of pride are high and wide; Can't see over to the other side; It's such a sad thing to see beauty decay; It's sadder still, to feel your heart torn away
Time passes slowly when you're lost in a dream.
Time is a jet plane, it moves too fast;
Oh, but what a shame if all we've shared can't last.
Well, I try my best; To be just like I am,; But everybody wants you; To be just like them.
My love she speaks like silence
I'm in love with a woman who don't even appeal to me
The highway is for gamblers, better use your sense.; Take what you have gathered from coincidence.
Now I wish I could write you a melody so plain; That could hold you dear lady from going insane
The birds are flyin' low babe, honey I feel so exposed
If there's a poor boy on the street,; Then let him have my seat; 'Cause tonight I'll be staying here with you.
We're both just one too many mornings; An' a thousand miles behind.
the cops don't need you; and man they expect the same
And they're breaking down the distance; Between right and wrong.
You speak to me; In sign language; As I'm eating a sandwich
Once I had mountains in the palm of my hand,; And rivers that ran through ev'ry day.
We pointed out the way to go; And scratched your name in sand,; Though you just thought it was nothing more; Than a place for you to stand.
You know, the streets are filled with vipers; Who've lost all ray of hope,; You know, it ain't even safe no more; In the palace of the Pope.
For the loser now; Will be later to win
She's a hypnotist collector
Let the wind blow low, let the wind blow high.; One day the little boy and the little girl were both baked in a pie.
I'm in love with the Ugliest Girl in the World
She's got everything she needs,; She's an artist, she don't look back
