Did I miss the mark or; Over-step the line; That only you could see?
The drinks are ready and the dogs are going to war
I wish that for just one time; You could stand inside my shoes; You'd know what a drag it is; To see you
My so-called friends have fallen under a spell.; They look me squarely in the eye and they say, "All is well."; Can they imagine the darkness that will fall from on high; When men will beg God to kill them and they won't be able to die?
When you cease to exist, then who will you blame?; I've tried my best to love you, but I cannot play this game; Your best friend and my worst enemy is one and the same
I must be guilty of something,; You just whisper it into my ear.
And they're breaking down the distance; Between right and wrong.
Behind every beautiful thing there's been some kind of pain
Lay down your weary tune, lay down,; Lay down the song you strum,; And rest yourself 'neath the strength of strings; No voice can hope to hum.
Two riders were approaching, the wind began to howl.
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'.
You don't want a love that's pure; You wanna drown love; You want a watered-down love
The birds are flyin' low babe, honey I feel so exposed
He bought me with a price,; Freed me from the pit,; Full of emptiness and wrath; And the fire that burns in it.
The truth was obscure, too profound and too pure, to live it you have to explode.
And the dirt of gossip blows into my face,; And the dust of rumors covers me.
If he needs a third eye he just grows it
Well, there's voices in the night trying to be heard; I'm sitting here listening to every mind polluting word
The sky is erupting, I must go where it's quiet.
Well, I try my best; To be just like I am,; But everybody wants you; To be just like them.
Well, if I had to do it all over again,; Babe, I'd do it all over you.
But when Quinn the Eskimo gets here,; All the pigeons gonna run to him.
if there's an original thought out there, I could use it right now
I've been down on the bottom of a world full of lies; I ain't looking for nothing in anyone's eyes
She got a weird sense of humor that's all her own
And the words that are used; For to get the ship confused; Will not be understood as they're spoken.
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.
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.
Wallflower, wallflower; Take a chance on me.; Please let me ride you home.
No knife could ever cut our love apart
Don't trust me to show you beauty; When beauty may only turn to rust.
When my life is over, it'll be like a puff of smoke,; How long must I suffer, Lord, how long must I be provoked?; Satan will give you a little taste, then he'll move in with rapid speed,; Lord keep my blind side covered and see that I don't bleed.
Gonna sleep down in the parlor; And relive my dreams
Today on the countryside it was a-hotter than a crotch
don't criticize; what you can't understand.
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."
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."
You think you can hide but you're never alone,; Ask Lot what he thought when his wife turned to stone.
You can make me cry; Never say goodbye
When you got nothing, you got nothing to lose
I like the cool way you look at me,; Everything about you is bringing me; Misery.
I hear that sometimes Satan comes as a man of peace.
For I know that you know that I know that you know; Something is tearing up your mind.
Oh the fishes will laugh; As they swim out of the path; And the seagulls they'll be smiling.
All the laughter is just making me sad
You speak to me; In sign language; As I'm eating a sandwich
If God's on our side; He'll stop the next war.
You were snow, you were rain; You were striped, you were plain,;
Oh, jewels and binoculars hang from the head of the mule
And every time you get this close; It makes me want to scream
Well, I asked for something to eat; I'm hungry as a hog; So I get brown rice, seaweed; And a dirty hot dog
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.
Pain sure brings out the best in people, doesn't it?
I gotta go; Find out something only dead men know
I wish, I wish, I wish in vain,; That we could sit simply in that room again.
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.
Boys in the street beginning to play; Girls like birds flying away
All I feel is heat and flame and all I see are dark eyes.
