Words in my mouth Someone told me to say They go unspoken My mind gets in the way I hold my tongue Save my, save my soul True to myself And stay gold Sometimes you gotta pull the plug Somewhere a little place to crawl Love me for who I am It doesn't have to be this hard for an ordinary man I wanna take cover, take cover From you, wake me when it's over Take cover, I wanna take cover From you Sold all my dreams Watched them all disappear I've spilled my blood No one seems to care Sometimes you gotta pull the plug Somewhere a little place to crawl Love me for who I am How low do I have to go to make you Understand |

Can I explain it?
It's not not an easy thing to do A cryptic fascination Seems to get me through A darkened stranger Who left me full of doubt She'd tell me that she loved me Then the lights went out Jane Doe, what was her name Where did she go Jane Doe, she slipped away again Does anybody know? Jane Doe Platonic whisper That makes me want to shout Then she always disappears Like a lady from a Barcly House Who is this woman Someone that I invent I follow all night long Like a bloodhound on a secret Jane Doe, what was her name Where did she go Jane Doe, she slopped away without a trace I still don't know Jane Doe There's no fault, no blame Love can twist the brain This picture lost its frame And John has lost his Jane Jane Doe, what was her name Where did she go Jane Doe, slippped away again Does anybody know? Jane Doe There's no fault, no blame Love can twist the brain This picture lost its frame And John has lost his Jane |

Someone said life is for the taking
Here I am with my hand out waiting for a ride I've been living for my great expectations What good is it when I'm stranded here And the world just passes by Where are the signs to help me get out of this place If I should stumble on my moment in time, how will I know If the story's written on my face, does it show Am I strong enough to walk on water Smart enough to come in out of the rain Or am I a fool going where the wind blows. Here I sit halfway to somewhere Thinking about what's in front of me and what I left behind On my own, supposed to be so easy Is this what I've been after Or have I lost my mind Maybe this is my big chance coming to take me away If I should stumble on my moment in time, how will I know If the story's written on my face, does it show Am I strong enough to walk on water Smart enough to come in out of the rain Or am I a fool going where the wind blows. Here I'm walking naked through the world Taking up space, society's child Make room for me, make room for me, make room for me Am I strong enough to walk on water Smart enough to come in out of the rain Or am I fool Going where the wind blows. Going where the wind blows. Going where the wind blows. Going where the wind blows. |

I hear their voices inside my head There's no denying it's my private hell as I lie in bed I take a look around and see myself In twenty years will I be them I've taken all I can stand Afraid of what kind of man I am Does everything stay the same Or will I break the chain Secrets, emotions, and wounds concealed Spirits are broken, the deepest scars that I'll never heal They'll be back handed down from father to son A closet full of skeletons I've taken all I can stand Afraid of what kind of man I am Does everything stay the same Or will I break the chain I will get by With a little understanding 'Cause it's my own life after all I've taken all I can stand Afraid of what kind of man I am Does everything stay the same Or will I break the chain |

Don't you color me by the way you paint your picture
I'm happy just the way I am It's been soaked into my bones, a child under pressure I'm a bastard of the master plan I wanna live my life Don't wanna live a lie I hear freedom ringin' Everyone's got a place But where do I fit in Don't go sellin' me a dream you can't deliver Like a dog in a cat suit, it's a poor disguise Strange little angels a parade of saints and sinners Greetings from the other side I wanna live my life I don't wanna live a lie I hear freedom ringin' Everyone's got a place But where do I fit in I was walking on glass from a thousand broken mirrors Saw my reflection stare me down I tried to run, I was going through the motions I got my feet on solid ground I wanna live my life Don't wanna live a lie I hear freedom ringin' I wasn't the same as you baby But take a walk in my shoes I hear freedom ringin' Everyone's got a place But where do I fit in |

Comfort me
From a world where no one cares Where the words turn into cages And memories cut like glass I closed my eyes on you Put the blames on myself The weight is on my shoulders Throw my heart in the wishing well I've got to face and tame my demons I know it's hard to start over again, yeah, I know. Through trials and tribulations Salvation's like a long lost friend I'll take back all of the hurt For your love I've taken for granted I'll do anything to change If that's what it takes No use in pretending Ain't no pride in it all A cure for independence Is when you're standing in the cold Have I used have I used my chances Have my bridges all been burned Give me a sign of inspiration To find a stone that's left unturned I see a distant promise of Eden Lifting my spirits so high If I can break out of the circle Gonna kiss that carousel goodbye I'll take back all of the hurt For your love I've taken for granted I'll do anything to change If that's what it takes (solo) I've got to see a promise of Eden Lifting my spirits so high If I can break, break out of the circle Gonna kiss that carousel goodbye I'll take back all of the hurt For your love I've taken for granted I'll do anything to change, baby If that's what it takes Take back all of the hurt For your love I've taken for granted I'll do anything to change If that's what it takes If that's what it takes |

Hey man, are you ready to go Down where you reach a higher low Mmm, you can breathe the sweet sacred air For the woman waiting there Underground Wisdom is only a relative experience Life is a dream Not what it seems For the obscene Out of the underground Feeling is only a relative experience I don't believe it What does it mean For the obscene Down where you reach a higher low Solo Wisdom is only a relative experience Feeling is only a relative experience Life is a dream Not what it seems For the obscene Out of the underground I don't believe it What does it mean Down where you reach a higher low Out of the underground |

All alone in the twilight
I'm a shadow in the room Time is my companion But it turned its back too soon Imagination will take me anywhere I want to go But with my ballerina Both of us lost in a- Love light from an old Roman candle Midnight won't be the same When I close my eyes We're dancin' right into the flame The pciture is fading Like a vision from my soul Nothing left but a memory In the silver afterglow She may be gone, but not forgotten Inside my heart, yeah- But with my ballerina Both of us lost in a- Love light from an old Roman candle Midnight won't be the same When I close my eyes We're dancin' right into the flame My mind seems to wander away And play me like a fool I wish it could be like the way it was 'Cause life can be so cruel But with my ballerina I live in a dream of a- Love light from an old Roman candle When I close my eyes Midnight won't be the same We're dancin' right into the flame Love light from an old Roman candle Midnight won't be the same When I close my eyes We're dancin' right into the flame |

Mama D
Has a way of fixing the hole Where the water runs out my soul When you sing for me Save me Mama D Mama D wears a dark brown coat in the sun The light in her eyes burns so strong And the melody Heals me Mama D Set me free Mama D She won't bring you down If you're shit outta luck She can't live it down Might as well live it up Mama D Has a way of seeing the truth Through a lie or just an excuse Or a tragedy Show me Mama D Whatcha see Mama D She won't bring you down If you're shit outta luck She can't live it down Might as well live it up |

Tears
by Mr. Big Tears, from saying goodbye Tears, I`m sorry but I have made up my mind I`m leaving to find a new life a new love All I can tell you is never all I can give you are tears Tears fall down from my eyes, tears A man never cries, he should hold them back, hide them so no one could see the real me all I can tell you is never all I can give you are tears After the love ran out, I might be going out of my head but instead I`ve made up my mind I`m leaving to find a new life a new love All I can tell you is never all I can give you are tears All I can give you are tears Fall down from my eyes tears oooohooow |
