People carry roses
Make promises by the hours
My love she laughs like the flowers
Valentines can't buy her
Searching for my double, looking for; Complete evaporation to the core
Your loyalty is not to me; But to the stars above
And if my thought-dreams could be seen, They'd probably put my head in a guillotine
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."
Oh, jewels and binoculars hang from the head of the mule
Shine your light, shine your light on me; Ya know I just couldn't make it by myself.; I'm a little too blind to see
I just want you to know; I can see through your masks
I know God is my shield and he won't lead me astray
Don’t think twice, it’s all right
She's got everything she needs,; She's an artist, she don't look back
False-hearted judges dying in the webs that they spin,; Only a matter of time 'til night comes steppin' in.
Did I miss the mark or; Over-step the line; That only you could see?
If you want somebody you can trust, trust yourself.
Ain't it just like the night to play tricks when you're tryin' to be so quiet?
Every time you leave and go off someplace,; Things fall to pieces in my face
But the enemy I see
Wears a cloak of decency
Wiggle 'til you're high, wiggle 'til you're higher,; Wiggle 'til you vomit fire
It was true that in his later years he would not carry a gun; "I'm around too many children," he'd say, "they should never know of one."
Maybe they'll get me and maybe they won't; But not tonight and it won't be here; There are things I could say but I don't; I know the mercy of God must be near
I've been walking through the middle of nowhere; Trying to get to heaven before they close the door
They say you're usin' voodoo, I seen your feet walk by themselves
Lot of water under the bridge, Lot of other stuff too; Don't get up gentlemen, I'm only passing through
Everybody's wearing a disguise; To hide what they've got left behind their eyes
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."
Nations are angry, cursed are some,; People are expecting a false peace to come.
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.
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.
They tell me revenge is sweet and from where they stand, I'm sure it is.
Most of the time; I can't even be sure; If she was ever with me; Or if I was with her.
if there's an original thought out there, I could use it right now
Do I need your permission to turn the other cheek?; If you can read my mind, why must I speak?
We're going all the way 'til the wheels fall off and burn
Now at midnight all the agents; And the superhuman crew; Come out and round up everyone; That knows more than they do
No knife could ever cut our love apart
Thought I'd shaken the wonder and the phantoms of my youth
time is running backwards
You're invisible now, you got no secrets to conceal.
Build a fire, throw on logs; And listen to it hiss; And let it burn, burn, burn, burn; On a night like this.
We always did feel the same,; We just saw it from a different point of view
If dogs run free, why not me; Across the swamp of time?
Don't trust me to show you beauty; When beauty may only turn to rust.
I got troubles, I think maybe you got troubles,; I think maybe we'd better leave each other alone.
It's so impossible to even learn the tune.
Either I'm too sensitive or else I'm gettin' soft.
Go 'way from my window,; Leave at your own chosen speed.
Try imagining a place where it's always safe and warm.
It's too bright a light, he said, "For anybody's eyes,; If you've never seen one it's a blessing in disguise."
Heard the sound of a clown who cried in the alley
Don't know if I saw you, if I would kiss you or kill you; It probably wouldn't matter to you anyhow
You have explained every mystery.; What can I do for You?
My feet are so tired, my brain is so wired
I'm in love with the Ugliest Girl in the World
When you think that you lost everything; You find out you can always lose a little more
Never could learn to drink that blood; And call it wine
