It's like this all the time. Say it's cause you're mine All mine... And if you will, I will Try to let it go. And if you try, I'll try Try to let it show us the way 'Cause love is here to stay Just look me in the eye This is do or die And I will stay in love 'Till you say enough There is no giving in There is no giving up in love. Walk down the street Stare at lots of things The fast and steady streams Again and again and again. Do what I should Try to stay busy Your face is all I see Again and again and again. But you, you're always on my mind. It's like this all the time. Say it's cause you're mine All mine... And if you will, I will Try to let it go. And if you try, I'll try Try to let it show us the way 'Cause love is here to stay Just look me in the eye This is do or die And I will stay in love 'Till you say enough There is no giving in There is no giving up in love. Like a movie I once saw In the darkness I recall Feeling the beauty and the pain And when you call my name Say you feel the same. Cause' if you will, I will Try to let it go And if you try, I'll try Try to let it show. And if you will, I will Try to let it go And if you try, I'll try Try to let it show us the way 'Cause love is here to stay Just look me in the eye This is do or die And I will stay in love 'Til you say enough There is no giving in There is no giving up in love In love, in love We're in love I cannot disappear... I've tried again and again and again... |

Lights are bright in the circus
The geeks and the freaks all light cigarettes and laugh at your misery While the white of the curtain closing crushes your heart The inertia of loneliness tears your flesh apart It's a long slow slide It's a long slow slide It's a long slow slide Down Once the neon is gone There's still that golden splinter at your side His manners are charming But who are you fooling You're still nobody's bride And Bukowski's widow Haunts each empty seat on the ferris wheel As ghoulish lovers collide in a collage of kisses that they steal It's a long slow slide It's a long slow slide It's a long slow slide Down And outside your window you can see the circus it's lurching with rings of smoke You laugh halfheartedly at the punchline Not realizing they've made you the joke And inside you're heart a war is raging A region still untamed The worst fear I can imagine is for the mystery to be named Is for the mystery to be named It's a long slow slide It's a long slow slide It's a long slow slide Down |

to moonn6pence from shootingstar(papayeverte)
It`s four in the afternoon I`m on a flight leaving L.A. Trying to figure out my life My youth scattered along the highway Hotel rooms and headlights I`ve made a living with the song guitar as my companion Wanting desperately to belong... Fame is filled with spoiled children and we grow fat on fantasy I guess that`s why I`m leaving I crave reality... So goodbye Alice in Wonderland Goodbye yellow brick road There is a difference between dreaming & pretending I did not find paradise It was only a reflection of my lonely mind wanting what's been missing in my life I`m embarassed to say the rest is a rock and roll cliche I hit the bottom when I reached the top but I never knew it was you who was breaking my heart I thought u had to love me but... You did not Yes the heart can hallucinate when it`s completely starved for love.. it can even make monsters into angels from above You forged my love just like a weapon And you turned it against me like a knife You broke my last heartstring you opened up my eyes So goodbye Alice in Wonderland Goodbye yellow brick road There is a difference between dreaming & pretending That was not love in your eyes It was only a reflection of my lonely mind searching for what's been missing in my life growing up is not an absence of dreaming It`s being able to understand the difference between the ones you can hold And the ones that you`ve been sold and Dreaming is a good thing cause it brings new things to life,but preretending is an ending that perpetuates a lie Forgetting what you are Seeing for what you`ve been told...oh... truth is stranger than fiction And this is my chance to get it right Life is much better without all of your pretty lies So Goodbye Alice in Wonderland You can keep your yellow brick road there is a difference between dreaming n pretending these are not tears in my eyes.... They are only a reflection of my lonely mind finding They are only a reflection of my lonely mind finding I found what’s missing in my life ... |

I say to myself
Self, why are you awake again? It's one a.m. Standing with the fridge door wide open, staring Such a sight, florescent light The stars are bright Might make a wish, if I believed in that shit As it is, I might watch TV Cause it's nice to see people more messed up than me I say to myself, as I smile at the wall, let myself fall It's gonna be all right, no matter what they say It's gonna be a good day, just wait and see It's gonna be okay, cause I'm okay with me It's gonna be, it's gonna be, it's gotta be I shiver, shut the door Can't think standing here no more I'm alone, my mine's racing, heart breaking Can you be everything I need you to be? Can you protect me like a daughter? Can you love me like a father? Can you drink me like water? Say I'm like the desert, just hotter. The point of it all Is that if I should fall Still you're name I'll call It's gonna be all right, no matter what they say It's gonna be a good day, just wait and see It's gonna be okay, cause I'm okay with me It's gonna be, it's gonna be As long as we laugh out loud Laugh like we're mad Cause this crazy, mixed up beauty is all that we have Because what's love but an itch we can't scratch, a joke we can't catch But still we laugh I go back upstairs, turn off the TV You say "I'll be okay baby, just wait and see." It's gonna be all right, it's gonna be okay Gonna be a good day, just wait, just see Gonna okay, cause I'm okay with me It's gonna be, it's gonna be, it's gonna be... |

Babies on beach blankets headed for Mars
Cute guys in crew cuts with the day goes to bars There's a pretty lady in a bikini Her eyes are clear But her teeth look like smashed out window panes She's trying to fix her dreams With seaweed and sushi and carrot juice and wheat germ There's a wide wall That she can't see over now But that's ok Because mistakes are allowed when you're a Satellite A jog in the morning with some vitamins Then go to a singles bar California is sure lovely It's the home of the stars And everybody's got a great body, but mine That's just fine Cuz everybody's so shriveled up inside They're trying to hide behind Power Bars and Vollyball and Valium It's a wide wall That we can't see over now But that's ok We're still growing You know that Mistakes are allowed when you're a Satellite No matter where you go You can't outrun a cold No matter what you do You can't escape the flu No matter how you try You can't stop a satellite In Hollywood there's all these heroes They're strung out on grace Half-skinned gypsies They're crying to leave this place There are souls stuck in a bone machine They are dying in crowded rooms They are dying of blood on bone They are crushed by ??? Cigarettes and ?? and high hopes There's a wide wall That we can't see over now But that's all right We're still growing You know that Mistakes are allowed when you're a Satellite You can't hold back a Satellite Satellite Babies on beach blankets headed for Mars |

I am talking but you can't quite hear what I say.
I come closer but you push me away. I should leave but I don't have the strength. I can't think. Please can't you see that I am down on my knees. My heart's in your hand and you squeeze. I want the whole thing but you give me a part. It's time you start. So I push and I pull And I don't know which way to go //CHORUS Stop me, stop me from falling Cause you can see, see where this is going If you love me, why do you leave me If you need me Then I love you only when I am the only one too.// I just can't make you understand I want you're heart but you hold up you're hand You say space is what you need But you want me to be true to just you While you get to do whatever you want to CHORUS You'll never stop It's gotta change You don't want a lover you want a world of slaves. I can't resist falling into those arms Those boyish charms You think I won't leave You're so good but not so good I can see CHORUS x2 |

Come here buttercup.
Let me fill you up. Can't you see I'm the blue in you're skies? You can tell by the stars in my eyes. Dawn always comes too soon. It hurts me like a bruise. There's a hole in my pillow where you used to be. It feels like a hole in the middle of me. //CHORUS Oh oh oh Just take my hand to have and to hold if not obey. Oh oh oh Say you're still my man I try to find the words to say That I want you always to stay To wake up with every single day But words get in the way Words get in the way// Tell you're boss you're dead. And lets go back to bed. You make me wanna break out a song But everytime I try it just comes out wrong CHORUS I leave a message on you're answering machine I try to say what I really mean CHORUS x2 |

Tonight I have the strangest feeling
Look for answers on a hotel ceiling When did my heart first feel this way? Being alone used to be just fine. Now life without you is just passing time. I thought I heard you call my name. Reached for you're hand, it was in vein. When you're here, it feels like a hole in my chest. Get dressed, look in the mirror, say "You're heart will never be the same." So I drive to you tonight I was blind, now I have sight. I could not leave you even if I tried. You're heart beats inside of me. Like a star in the dark of night, Like birds lost in flight. The clouds in the sky are blue I belong with you. I've been together, but alone. I've made love without love being shown. I've seen sorrow in a pair of dice, All things that came in two's made me cry Until tonight. So I drive to you tonight I was blind, now I have sight. I could not leave you even if I tried. You're heart beats inside of me. Like a star in the dark of night, Like birds lost in flight. The clouds in the sky are blue I belong with you. Can't stop, won't stop. Love is all we've got Know how much I love ya When I put my arms around you Can't stop, won't stop You are all I want So I drive to you tonight I was blind, now I have sight. I could not leave you even if I tried. You're heart beats inside of me. Like a star in the dark of night, Like birds lost in flight. The clouds in the sky are blue, yea The clouds in the sky are blue I belong with you. |

Your lungs fill up with concrete
Her voice is all you can hear Red lips and a screwdriver Wrapped around some mink-clad smear And you know that she's a diamond And it's damned you for sure (OR In this damn juke box hell) 'Cause fools gold only fools fools In two-bit hotels. But she's cooler than all that She's a real high-class cat She's queen of the last dance rodeo. But under the gas lamp The air is thick and velvety Your bones filled with hunger Your heart filled with longing You're no longer human You're an insatiable hole. You wanna bury your face forever In the navel of her soul 'Cause you know ... All you need is a heart to call home All you need is a heart to call home That's all. Light bulbs, and nylons And plastic chandeliers Objects are only objects, They can't feel when you're near. And tangerine lips And lily-white breasts These things are eternal Inside them humanity rests. The skin is like a seashell You listen to the soul Like an old-time radio show. But under the gas lamp The air is thick and velvety Your bones filled with hunger Your heart filled with longing You're no longer human You're an insatiable hole. You wanna bury your face forever In the navel of her soul 'Cause you know ... All you need is a heart to call home That's all. But don't wander too far On one constant star Darkness exists, except where you are Your feet are filled with wandering They follow your own 'Cause everywhere you are Feels like home. So search all you miners You hunters of dreams Look in the alleyways For what you know is not what it seems And fame, all you maidens, It don't exist too long But at least look behind you And see your own shadow's gone Don't you know it's the last rodeo You gotta find yourself a cowboy Or someone to keep you Warm when it snows. But under the gas lamp The air is thick and velvety Your bones filled with hunger Your heart filled with longing You're no longer human You're an insatiable hole. You wanna bury your face forever In the navel of her soul 'Cause you know ... All you need is a heart to call home All you need is a heart All you need is a heart to call home That's all. |

Housewives told to recapture their youth
By wearing floral print and suede Fixing their hairdos with PC, chemical-free hairspray Martha Stewart taught them to make on TV I was raised a farmgirl Now I'm too far from home, all alone on the road Trying to figure out who I am now the the stardust has turned to sand And the sand has turned to stone on the starmaking machine I'm 31 years old That ain't the end but it sure ain't where I began And my daddy, he wrote songs and he broke colts And he went back to school to get a degree Now he teaches music to kids, he taught music to me And this Alaskan girl has been living in Stephenville, Texas, that is Yes, you guessed it, I moved there because I fell in love with a man I moved his ex-old lady's thing out of the closet The same closet I had to move my things back in No, it didn't make me feel that great, as if to demonstrate Everything's temporary if you give it enough time I'm 31 years old That ain't the end but it sure ain't where I began But hey, I'm just a kid, I've got nothing to lose I'm a singer of songs, I'm a player for crowds Hey Ma, look, I'm an entertainer I'm a modern day troubadour trying to find justice with six strings Trying to make the world make sense out of me Trying to be loved completely, trying to love honestly Trying to find a decent high noon cup of tea In another hotel I'm trying to listen to the leaves speak Trying to steal secrets from fishes in the creek Trying to figure out who I am A pretty mediocre cook, an even worse mathematician, maybe a mother one day What will it be? I'm trying to figure out who I am But there's no hand to hold, no Doctor Martin Luther King There's just syncophants And the mindlessness on TV We all read magazines on the latest ways to behave So why not follow me, the blond bombshell deity? I'll sell you neat ideas without big words And a little bit of cleavage to wash it all down Ya know, everybody thought Godard was a clown man And that ain't gonna be me And I'm 31 years old That ain't the end but it sure ain't where I began And I'm 31 years old That ain't the end but it sure ain't where I began Guess that just makes it Stephenville, Texas |

It's morning time, wonder where you are
wonder who you're talking to wonder if the sun has risen where you are it's morning time, i miss your hands on my skin this bed's too big without you oh god, what do i do? I'm a thousand miles away, and I'm lying next to you. The sun shines golden, and I feel like my car a little run down, a little beat up, maybe just a little green maybe it's my battery, maybe it's my starter, maybe my heart's too weak there's just this feeling, thought I had to get going got too scary, got too big, got to get out of here but now i don't know how to get home. oh god, what do I do? I'm a thousand miles away, and lying next to you. Mama says take my vitamins, daddy says "girl, don't stay out so late" sister says "there's other fishes in the sea" but love is not a rational thing, and my heart is beyond advice no, love is not a rational thing oh god, what do I do? I'm a thousand miles away, and lying next to you. these fields stretch out like patchwork, on my granny's quilt she used to tell me that "life is a series of strange and mysterious things one minute you think you're up, the next you find you're down" your mind says "girl, you gotta stick around" but your heart says "I'm too weak in the knees" oh god, what do I do? I'm a thousand miles away, and lying next to you. |
