I know God is my shield and he won't lead me astray
people don’t live or die, people just float
I don't mind a reasonable amount of trouble
The pump don't work; 'Cause the vandals took the handles
They got him on conspiracy, they were never sure who with.
If you're a doctor, I need a shot of love.
Down the highway, down the tracks, down the road to ecstasy,; I followed you beneath the stars, hounded by your memory,; And all your ragin' glory.
It's too bright a light, he said, "For anybody's eyes,; If you've never seen one it's a blessing in disguise."
In the hills of mystery,; In the foggy web of destiny,; You can have what's left of me,; Where we were born in time.
What looks large from a distance,; Close up ain't never that big.
I have dined with kings, I've been offered wings, And I've never been too impressed.
Some things in life, it gets too late to learn
How does it feel
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.
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.
Forget the dead you've left, they will not follow you.
Are you still my friend, baby, show me a sign
She's a hypnotist collector
False-hearted judges dying in the webs that they spin,; Only a matter of time 'til night comes steppin' in.
Now there's spiritual warfare and flesh and blood breaking down.; Ya either got faith or ya got unbelief and there ain't no neutral ground.
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.
I'm hungry and I'm irritable; And I'm tired of this bag of tricks.; At one time there was nothing wrong with me; That you could not fix.
Done so many evil things in the name of love, it's a crying shame; I never did see no fire that could put out a flame.
Oh, man has invented his doom, First step was touching the moon.
She was born in spring, but I was born too late
the ancient empty street's too dead for dreaming
The party's over, and there's less and less to say
My love for her is taking such a long time to die
Do you ever wonder just what God requires?; You think He's just an errand boy to satisfy your wandering desires.
If you don't believe there's a price for this sweet paradise, remind me to show you the, scars.
Always on the outside of whatever side there was,; When they asked him why it had to be that way, "Well," he answered, "just because."
Somethin' there is about you that I can't quite put my finger on.
It's mighty funny; the end of time has just begun
All he believes are his eyes, And his eyes, they just tell him lies
Did I miss the mark or; Over-step the line; That only you could see?
It's for myself and my friends my stories are sung.
Ain't complaining 'bout what I got; Seen better times, but who has not?
Oh, but if I had the stars from the darkest night,; And the diamonds from the deepest ocean,; I'd forsake them all for your sweet kiss,; For that's all I'm wishin' to be ownin'.
Time is an ocean but it ends at the shore; You may not see me tomorrow.
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.
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."
Ring them bells, for the time that flies,; For the child that cries; When innocence dies.
As the last fire truck from hell; Goes rolling by, all good people are praying
When you know as well as me; You'd rather see me paralyzed
Put your body next to mine; And keep me company,; There is plenty a room for all,; So please don't elbow me.
I'm glad to see you're still alive, you're lookin' like a saint.
With haunted hearts through the heat and cold
We never thought we could ever get old
I don't need any reminder; To know how much I really care
When he died I was hopin' that it wasn't contagious
Look into infinity, all you see is trouble.
If you get close to her, kiss her once for me
All my friends have told me; If I hang around with you; That I'll go blind
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.
People disagreeing on all just about everything, yeah,; Makes you stop and all wonder why.
Well my sense of humanity has gone down the drain
Just do your thing, you'll be king; If dogs run free.
You can pound on the President's gate; But you oughta know by now it's gonna be too late.
Nations are angry, cursed are some,; People are expecting a false peace to come.
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.
