Wallflower, wallflower; Take a chance on me.; Please let me ride you home.
And you, you took me in,; You loved me then; You didn't waste time.
I fought with my twin, that enemy within, 'til both of us fell by the way.
She says, "What'll it be?"; I say, "I don't know, you got any soft boiled eggs?"
I got new eyes ; Everything looks far away
Today on the countryside it was a-hotter than a crotch
When you gonna wake up and strengthen the things that remain?
Well, I'm livin' in a foreign country but I'm bound to cross the line,; Beauty walks a razor's edge, someday I'll make it mine.
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
Someone showed me a picture and I just laughed; Dignity never been photographed
Oh ev'ry foe that ever I faced
The cause was there before we came.
The pump don't work; 'Cause the vandals took the handles
Through the wild cathedral evening the rain unraveled tales
Do you ever wonder just what God requires?; You think He's just an errand boy to satisfy your wandering desires.
Goodnight, my love, may the lord have mercy on us all.
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
Rock me, pretty baby, rock me 'til everything gets real; Rock me for a little while, rock me 'til there's nothing left to feel; And I'll rock you too
I know God is my shield and he won't lead me astray
I see you kiss her on the cheek ev'rytime she gives a speech
We stare straight ahead and try so hard to stay right
Don't follow leaders; Watch the parkin' meters
I'm walking through streets that are dead
Lovin' you is the one thing I'll never regret.
You can make me cry; Never say goodbye
So let us not talk falsely now, the hour is getting late.
She was born in spring, but I was born too late
It's so impossible to even learn the tune.
Put your body next to mine; And keep me company,; There is plenty a room for all,; So please don't elbow me.
I got a poison headache,; But I feel all right
Oh, ev'ry thought that's strung a knot in my mind,; I might go insane if it couldn't be sprung.
Son, this ain't a dream no more, it's the real thing.
They tell me everything is gonna be all right; But I don't know what "all right" even means
And then you told me later, as I apologized; That you were just kiddin' me, you weren't really from the farm
In the smoke of the twilight on a milk-white steed,; Michelangelo indeed could've carved out your features.
And the words that are used; For to get the ship confused; Will not be understood as they're spoken.
I wouldn't be ashamed to be seen with you anywhere.
Once I had mountains in the palm of my hand,; And rivers that ran through ev'ry day.
What kind of sign they need when it all come from within
Now the rainman gave me two cures,; Then he said, "Jump right in."; The one was Texas medicine,; The other was just railroad gin.
We're going all the way 'til the wheels fall off and burn
I can smile in the face of mankind.; Don't even remember what her lips felt like on mine; Most of the time.
Oh, some of us'll end up; In St. Cloud Prison,; And some of us'll wind up, To be lawyers and things
I seen the kingdoms of the world and it's makin' me feel afraid.
I have dined with kings, I've been offered wings, And I've never been too impressed.
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.
I been hangin’ on threads
I been playin’ it straight
Now, I’ve just got to cut loose
Before it gets late
I see nothing to be gained by any explanation; There are no words that need to be said
It was gravity which pulled us down and destiny which broke us apart
I still got my voice left, I can take it anywhere I go
How long can I stay in this nowhere café
I know all about poison, I know all about fiery darts,; I don't care how rough the road is, show me where it starts,; Whatever pleases You, tell it to my heart.
In order to deal in this game, got to make the queen disappear,; It's done with a flick of the wrist.
There's always some new stranger sneakin' glances,; Some trigger-happy fool willin' to take chances
I am hanging in the balance, of the reality of man; like every sparrow falling, like every grain of sand
People tell me it's a sin; To know and feel too much within.
When you know as well as me; You'd rather see me paralyzed
She got a weird sense of humor that's all her own
If the bible is right, the world will explode
The way is long but the end is near, Already the fiesta has begun
