I was in a whirlwind, now I'm in some better place.
I'm listening to Neil Young, I gotta turn up the sound; Someone's always yelling turn it down
Reality has always had too many heads
It ain't my cup of meat.
At the corrida we'll sit in the shade; And watch the young torero stand alone.; We'll drink tequila where our grandfathers stayed; When they rode with Villa into Torreon.
Wealth is a filthy rag; So erotic so unpatriotic; So wrapped up in the American flag
time is running backwards
Well, the chances are against it and the odds are slim,; That he'll live by the rules that the world makes for him
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.
Can't you make any sound?
I fought with my twin, that enemy within, 'til both of us fell by the way.
Sometimes I feel so low-down and disgusted
Won't you come with me, baby?; I'll take you where you wanna go.; And if it don't work out, You'll be the first to know
When He rose from the dead, did they believe?
She walked up to me so gracefully and took my crown of thorns.
She said, "Be easy, baby,; There ain't nothin' worth stealin' in here."
When you got nothing, you got nothing to lose
It's many a guard; That stands around smilin',; Holdin' his club; Like he was a king.
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
Give ya delusions of grandeur; And a evil eye; Give you idea that; You're too good to die
Too many thoughts get in the way in the day
Can't you hear that motor turnin'?; Automobile comin' into style
My feet are so tired, my brain is so wired
Could you ever be true?
Time is all I have to give
I just want you to know; I can see through your masks
All my friends have told me; If I hang around with you; That I'll go blind
Do you ever wonder just what God requires?; You think He's just an errand boy to satisfy your wandering desires.
Well, it's always been my nature to take chances; My right hand drawing back while my left hand advances
Ain't complaining 'bout what I got; Seen better times, but who has not?
I want to thank You, Lord,; I just want to thank You, Lord,; Thank You, Lord.
I just can't fit; Yes, I believe it's time for us to quit
You'd better do somethin' quick; She's your lover now.
You're so damn nonchalant; But it's your mind that I want.
Everybody must get stoned.
If you're looking for assistance, babe,; Or if you just want some company; Or if you just want a friend you can talk to,; Honey, come and see about me.
Time is a jet plane, it moves too fast;
Oh, but what a shame if all we've shared can't last.
But when Quinn the Eskimo gets here,; All the pigeons gonna run to him.
Yes, my guard stood hard when abstract threats; Too noble to neglect; Deceived me into thinking; I had something to protect
Tell her she can look me up if she's got the time.
Thought I'd shaken the wonder and the phantoms of my youth
With haunted hearts through the heat and cold
We never thought we could ever get old
I thought somehow that I would be spared this fate
This wheel shall explode!
I see you kiss her on the cheek ev'rytime she gives a speech
I'm sick of love but I'm in the thick of it
Well my nerves are exploding and my body's tense; I feel like the whole world got me pinned up against the fence
We're both just one too many mornings; An' a thousand miles behind.
How long can I stay drunk on fear out in the wilderness?
Don't the moon look good, mama, Shinin' through the trees?
The angels play on their horns all day,; The whole earth in progression seems to pass by.; But does anyone hear the music they play,; Does anyone even try?
Wiggle 'til you're high, wiggle 'til you're higher,; Wiggle 'til you vomit fire
Two riders were approaching, the wind began to howl.
Well, there's voices in the night trying to be heard; I'm sitting here listening to every mind polluting word
For I know that you know that I know that you know; Something is tearing up your mind.
You could make me cry if you don't know.
My love she speaks like silence
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
Put your ear to the train tracks, put your ear to the ground,; You ever feel like you're never alone even when there's nobody else around?; Since the beginning of the universe man's been cursed by trouble.
