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?
Look into infinity, all you see is trouble.
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.
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
Can't you make any sound?
My children will go, As soon as they grow.; Well, there ain't nothing here now to hold them.
If you want to live easy
Baby pack your clothes with mine
Every day of the year's like playin' Russian roulette
I got nothing left to burn
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
people don’t live or die, people just float
as long as the world keeps a-turnin', I just keep a-turnin' too.
The treasure can't be found by men who search
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."
Don't know if I saw you, if I would kiss you or kill you; It probably wouldn't matter to you anyhow
Well, You've done it all and there's no more anyone can pretend to do.; What can I do for You?
What good am I if I say foolish things; And I laugh in the face of what sorrow brings; And I just turn my back while you silently die,; What good am I?
I'm sick of love but I'm in the thick of it
And every one of them words rang true; And glowed like burnin' coal; Pourin' off of every page; Like it was written in my soul from me to you
The pump don't work; 'Cause the vandals took the handles
If he needs a third eye he just grows it
A saxophone someplace far off played
Yes, I see you on your window ledge; But I can't tell just how far away you are from the edge
Well the desert is hot, the mountain is cursed,; Pray that I don't die of thirst,; Baby, two feet from the well.
You should be made; To wear earphones
Never could learn to drink that blood; And call it wine
I'm going out of my mind; With a pain that stops and starts
What drives me to you is what drives me insane.
Ring them bells, for the time that flies,; For the child that cries; When innocence dies.
I was in a whirlwind, now I'm in some better place.
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.
I look into the eyes of my merciful friend
And then I ask myself, is this the end?
Memories linger, sad yet sweet
And I think of the souls in heaven who will meet
I am hanging in the balance, of the reality of man; like every sparrow falling, like every grain of sand
Don't trust me to show you beauty; When beauty may only turn to rust.
They used to grow food in Kansas; Now they want to grow it on the moon and eat it raw.; I can see the day coming when even your home garden; Is gonna be against the law.
Now the rainman gave me two cures,; Then he said, "Jump right in."; The one was Texas medicine,; The other was just railroad gin.
I'm just sitting here beating on my trumpet
If you're a doctor, I need a shot of love.
This is the key to the kingdom and this is the town; This is the blind horse that leads you around
When you know as well as me; You'd rather see me paralyzed
While my conscience explodes; The harmonicas play the skeleton keys and the rain
Have you got some unfinished business?; Is there something holding you back?; Are you thinking for yourself; Or are you following the pack?
I can change, I swear, oh, oh,; See what you can do.; I can make it through,; You can make it too.
It was gravity which pulled us down and destiny which broke us apart
He looks so truthful, is this how he feels; Trying to peel the moon and expose it
it is not he or she or them or it; That you belong to.
The truth was obscure, too profound and too pure, to live it you have to explode.
What's a sweetheart like you doin' in a dump like this?
your pleasure knows no limits
she's true, like ice, like fire
there are no sins inside the Gates of Eden
You could make me cry if you don't know.
Don't you know there's nothing new that's under the sun?; Well, there ain't no man righteous, no not one.
Could you ever be true?
God is in heaven; And we all want what's his; But power and greed and corruptible seed; Seem to be all that there is
Praise be to Nero's Neptune; The Titanic sails at dawn; And everybody's shouting; Which Side Are You On?
She still lives inside of me, we've never been apart.
Don't even hear a murmur of a prayer; It's not dark yet, but it's getting there.
When you gonna wake up and strengthen the things that remain?
