And you, you took me in,; You loved me then; You didn't waste time.
Searching for my double, looking for; Complete evaporation to the core
I must admit I felt a little uneasy; When she bent down to tie the laces of my shoe
Will I ever learn that there'll be no peace, that the war won't cease; Until He returns?
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.
My head tells me it's time to make a change; But my heart is telling me I love ya but you're strange.
May you have a strong foundation; When the winds of changes shift
The party's over, and there's less and less to say
I hear that sometimes Satan comes as a man of peace.
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.
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.
Go melt back into the night, babe,; Everything inside is made of stone.; There's nothing in here moving, An' anyway I'm not alone.
Last night I danced with a stranger; But she just reminded me you were the one
Let me ask you one question; Is your money that good
I've been walking through the middle of nowhere; Trying to get to heaven before they close the door
That's how it is when things disintegrate
What happened to the real you, you've been captured but by whom?
The sky is erupting, I must go where it's quiet.
Well, it's always been my nature to take chances; My right hand drawing back while my left hand advances
Nations are angry, cursed are some,; People are expecting a false peace to come.
Oh, the only decent thing I did when I worked as a postal clerk; Was to haul your picture down off the wall near the cage where I used to work.; Was I a fool or not to try to protect your identity?; You looked a little burned out, my friend,; I thought it might be up to me.
Now all the criminals in their coats and their ties; Are free to drink martinis and watch the sun rise
As the last fire truck from hell; Goes rolling by, all good people are praying
I'd never say; That I done it the way; That you'd have liked me to.
Now I wish I could write you a melody so plain; That could hold you dear lady from going insane
We heard the Sermon on the Mount and I knew it was too complex,; It didn't amount to anything more than what the broken glass reflects.
God is in heaven; And we all want what's his; But power and greed and corruptible seed; Seem to be all that there is
You've gone to the finest school all right, Miss Lonely
The night passed away so quickly; It always does when you're with me.
Senor, senor, let's disconnect these cables,; Overturn these tables.; This place don't make sense to me no more.
One of these days and it won't be long; Going down in the valley and sing my song; I will sing it loud and sing it strong; Let the echo decide if I was right or wrong
He said, Are you lookin' for somethin' easy to catch?; I said, I got no money. He said, That ain't necessary.
Oh it's rush hour now; On the wheel and the plow; And the sun is going down; Upon the sacred cow.
Someone showed me a picture and I just laughed; Dignity never been photographed
Why does he look so righteous while your face is so changed
They got him on conspiracy, they were never sure who with.
Gonna sleep down in the parlor; And relive my dreams
We sat in an empty theater and we kissed,; I asked ya please to cross me off-a your list.
I still got my voice left, I can take it anywhere I go
I finally realize there's no room for regret
Any day now, any day now,; I shall be released.
Dark Beauty; Meet me at the border late tonight
Well I don't dare close my eyes and I don't dare wink; Maybe in the next life I'll be able to hear myself think
Satan whispers to ya, "Well, I don't want to bore ya,; But when ya get tired of the Miss So-and-so I got another woman for ya."
Oh, jewels and binoculars hang from the head of the mule
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.
People disagreeing everywhere you look,; Makes you wanna stop and read a book.
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
When I'm all alone; In the great unknown,; I'll remember you.
Two riders were approaching, the wind began to howl.
as long as the world keeps a-turnin', I just keep a-turnin' too.
In the home of the brave, Jefferson turnin' over in his grave
Won't you come see me, Queen Jane?
Scorpio Sphinx in a calico dress
Precious angel, you believe me when I say; What God has given to us no man can take away.
Well, I got a harmonica job, begun to play,; Blowin' my lungs out for a dollar a day.
Just like you I'm wondrin' what I'm doin' here.; Just like you I'm wondrin' what's goin' on.
Pain sure brings out the best in people, doesn't it?
It's the last temptation; The last account; The last time you might hear the sermon on the mount,; The last radio is playing.
