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
Everybody's wearing a disguise; To hide what they've got left behind their eyes
But it's like I'm stuck inside a painting; That's hanging in the Louvre
She's a hypnotist collector
The way is long but the end is near, Already the fiesta has begun
My head tells me it's time to make a change; But my heart is telling me I love ya but you're strange.
Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle like a bowl of soup
people don’t live or die, people just float
Reality has always had too many heads
When the last rays of daylight go down; Buddy, you'll roll no more; I can hear the church bells ringing in the yard; I wonder who they're ringing for
I feel like I'm knockin' on heaven's door.
I hear the ancient footsteps like the motion of the sea; Sometimes I turn, there's someone there, other times it's only me.
When you think that you lost everything; You find out you can always lose a little more
as long as the world keeps a-turnin', I just keep a-turnin' too.
I been hangin’ on threads
I been playin’ it straight
Now, I’ve just got to cut loose
Before it gets late
Sooner or later, one of us must know; That I really did try to get close to you
If dogs run free, why not me; Across the swamp of time?
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.
And, when I was through; I filled up my shoe; And brought it to you.
What was it you wanted; When you were kissing my check?
Time is a jet plane, it moves too fast;
Oh, but what a shame if all we've shared can't last.
I see people who are supposed to know better standin' around like furniture.
You don't need a weather man; To know which way the wind blows
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.
Sundown, yellow moon, I replay the past; I know every scene by heart, they all went by so fast
I got new eyes ; Everything looks far away
Go melt back into the night, babe,; Everything inside is made of stone.; There's nothing in here moving, An' anyway I'm not alone.
Have you got some unfinished business?; Is there something holding you back?; Are you thinking for yourself; Or are you following the pack?
Oh, ev'ry thought that's strung a knot in my mind,; I might go insane if it couldn't be sprung.
Just what do you think you have to guard?
Praise be to Nero's Neptune; The Titanic sails at dawn; And everybody's shouting; Which Side Are You On?
Can't you hear that motor turnin'?; Automobile comin' into style
The birds are flyin' low babe, honey I feel so exposed
Did I miss the mark or; Over-step the line; That only you could see?
We never thought we could ever get old.; We thought we could sit forever in fun
There's no one here, the gardener is gone
Saw you drift into infinity and come back again
Gon' walk on down until I'm right beside the sun; I'm gonna have to put up a barrier to keep myself away from everyone.
And I can't let go, won't let go, and I can't let go no more.
I was in a whirlwind, now I'm in some better place.
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.
Drinkin' man listens to the voice he hears; In a crowded room full of covered up mirrors; Lookin' into the lost forgotten years; For dignity
Oh, some of us'll end up; In St. Cloud Prison,; And some of us'll wind up, To be lawyers and things
Don't have to look no further, you're the soul of many things.
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
Run your fingers down my spine; Bring me a touch of bliss
When we meet again; Introduced as friends; Please don't let on that you knew me when; I was hungry and it was your world.
Either I'm too sensitive or else I'm gettin' soft.
I stood alone upon the ridge and all I did was watch.
The sky is erupting, I must go where it's quiet.
That's how it is when things disintegrate
You don't want a love that's pure; You wanna drown love; You want a watered-down love
When you got nothing, you got nothing to lose
Something there is about you that brings back a long forgotten truth
False-hearted judges dying in the webs that they spin,; Only a matter of time 'til night comes steppin' in.
Let the wind blow low, let the wind blow high.; One day the little boy and the little girl were both baked in a pie.
if every bone in his body was broken he would never admit it
I've been walking through the middle of nowhere; Trying to get to heaven before they close the door
All I really want to do,; Is, baby, be friends with you.
