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
You cast your spell and I went under,;
I find it so difficult to leave.
Senor, senor, let's disconnect these cables,;
Overturn these tables.;
This place don't make sense to me no more.
Tell her she can look me up if she's got the time.
Have I surrendered to the will of God;
Or am I still acting like the boss?
She's got everything she needs,;
She's an artist, she don't look back
That's how it is when things disintegrate
We stare straight ahead and try so hard to stay right
Saw you drift into infinity and come back again
I have dined with kings, I've been offered wings, And I've never been too impressed.
All the laughter is just making me sad
In the fury of the moment I can see the Master's hand;
In every leaf that trembles, in every grain of sand.
Time is a jet plane, it moves too fast;
Oh, but what a shame if all we've shared can't last.
Talk about perfection, I ain't never seen none
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.
I got nothing left to burn
Soon as a man is born, you know the sparks begin to fly, He gets wise in his own eyes and he's made to believe a lie.
Won't you come see me, Queen Jane?
We never thought we could ever get old.;
We thought we could sit forever in fun
What's lost is lost, we can't regain what went down in the flood
My love she speaks like silence
I must be guilty of something,;
You just whisper it into my ear.
Time is an ocean but it ends at the shore;
You may not see me tomorrow.
May you always know the truth;
And see the lights surrounding you.
Darkness at the break of noon
Turn your back, wash your hands,;
There's always someone who understands
I wasn't born to lose you.
Now you stand here expectin' me to remember somethin' you forgot to say
I've been walking through the middle of nowhere;
Trying to get to heaven before they close the door
Most of the time;
I can't even be sure;
If she was ever with me;
Or if I was with her.
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
How can I explain?;
Oh, it's so hard to get on
You could make me cry if you don't know.
Put your hand on my head, baby, do I have a temperature?
On the rising curve,;
Where the ways of nature will test every nerve,;
You won't get anything you don't deserve,;
Where we were born in time.
if every bone in his body was broken he would never admit it
Nations are angry, cursed are some,;
People are expecting a false peace to come.
I must admit I felt a little uneasy;
When she bent down to tie the laces of my shoe
Don't even hear a murmur of a prayer;
It's not dark yet, but it's getting there.
Then I'll stand on the ocean until I start sinkin',;
But I'll know my song well before I start singin'
Everybody is making love
Or else expecting rain
Do I need your permission to turn the other cheek?;
If you can read my mind, why must I speak?
She walked up to me so gracefully and took my crown of thorns.
Temptation's not an easy thing
if there's an original thought out there, I could use it right now
So let us not talk falsely now, the hour is getting late.
I looked at my watch;
I looked at my wrist;
I punched myself in the face with my fist
the ancient empty street's too dead for dreaming
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
Today on the countryside it was a-hotter than a crotch
Never could learn to drink that blood;
And call it wine
She was with Big Jim but she was leanin' to the Jack of Hearts
Praise be to Nero's Neptune;
The Titanic sails at dawn;
And everybody's shouting;
Which Side Are You On?
The truth was obscure, too profound and too pure, to live it you have to explode.
I been to Sugar Town, I shook the sugar down
Does she know I still care?
the cops don't need you;
and man they expect the same
I can still hear the sounds of those Methodist bells;
I'd taken the cure and had just gotten through
