I couldn't see where we were goin'; But you said you knew an' I took your word
Insanity is smashing up against my soul; You can say I was on anything but a roll; If I had a conscience, well I just might blow my top; What would I do with it anyway ; Maybe take it to the pawn shop
Whatever you wanted; Slipped out of my mind
I don't need no alibi when I'm spending time with you.; I've heard all of them rumors and you have heard 'em too.
Your loyalty is not to me; But to the stars above
This time tomorrow I'll know you better; When my memory is not so short.
He said, Are you lookin' for somethin' easy to catch?; I said, I got no money. He said, That ain't necessary.
Don't you cry and don't you die and don't you burn
Now somebody's got to show their hand, time is an enemy
I hear that sometimes Satan comes as a man of peace.
I been hangin’ on threads
I been playin’ it straight
Now, I’ve just got to cut loose
Before it gets late
My feet are so tired, my brain is so wired
What happened to the real you, you've been captured but by whom?
It's the ways of the flesh to war against the spirit; Twenty-four hours a day you can feel it and you can hear it; Using all the devices under the sun.
Junk is piling up, taking up space
Took a stranger to teach me, to look into justice's beautiful face; And to see an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth.
She lit a burner on the stove and offered me a pipe; "I thought you'd never say hello," she said; "You look like the silent type."
Either I'm too sensitive or else I'm gettin' soft.
It's too hot to sleep time is running away
And if my thought-dreams could be seen, They'd probably put my head in a guillotine
When you gonna wake up and strengthen the things that remain?
I just can't fit; Yes, I believe it's time for us to quit
How does it feel
Louise, she's all right, she's just near; She's delicate and seems like the mirror; But she just makes it all too concise and too clear; That Johanna's not here
It's the last temptation; The last account; The last time you might hear the sermon on the mount,; The last radio is playing.
And I can't let go, won't let go, and I can't let go no more.
You're invisible now, you got no secrets to conceal.
Let's try to get beneath the surface waste, girl,; No more booby traps and bombs,; No more decadence and charm,; No more affection that's misplaced, girl
Precious angel, you believe me when I say; What God has given to us no man can take away.
So long, New York.; Howdy, East Orange.
Sundown, yellow moon, I replay the past; I know every scene by heart, they all went by so fast
If he needs a third eye he just grows it
Well, I got a harmonica job, begun to play,; Blowin' my lungs out for a dollar a day.
I ain't sayin' you treated me unkind; You could have done better but I don't mind; You just kinda wasted my precious time
Mama, take this badge off of me
Gon' walk on down that dirt road 'til I'm right beside the sun
He looks so truthful, is this how he feels; Trying to peel the moon and expose it
goodbye's too good a word, gal; so I'll just say fare thee well
Yesterday everything was going too fast; Today, it's moving too slow
Why does he look so righteous while your face is so changed
People carry roses
Make promises by the hours
My love she laughs like the flowers
Valentines can't buy her
The birds are flyin' low babe, honey I feel so exposed
I need a steam shovel mama to keep away the dead
I don't know why I love her but I just can't stop
I believe in the impossible, you know that I do
Through the wild cathedral evening the rain unraveled tales
Gonna take dancing lessons do the jitterbug rag; Ain't no shortcuts, gonna dress in drag; Only a fool in here would think he's got anything to prove
There's no one here, the gardener is gone
Well, You've done it all and there's no more anyone can pretend to do.; What can I do for You?
I fought with my twin, that enemy within, 'til both of us fell by the way.
'Twas then that I knew what he had on his mind.
Someone showed me a picture and I just laughed; Dignity never been photographed
If the bible is right, the world will explode
Well, they're not showing any lights tonight; And there's no moon.
Tell ev'rybody; Down in ol' 'Frisco; That Tiny Montgomery's comin'; Down to say Hello
You shouldn't let other people get your kicks for you
I was in your presence for an hour or so; Or was it a day? I truly don't know.
I was in a whirlwind, now I'm in some better place.
In the home of the brave
Jefferson turnin’ over in his grave
