Please baby can't you see
My mind's a burnin' hell I got razors a rippin' and tearin' and strippin' My heart apart as well Tonight you told me That you ache for something new And some other woman is lookin' like something That might be good for you Go on and hold her till the screaming is gone Go on believe her when she tells you nothing's wrong But I'm the only one Who'll walk across the fire for you I'm the only one Who'll drown in my desire for you It's only fear that makes you run The demons that you're hiding from When all your promises are gone I'm the only one Please baby can't you see I'm trying to explain I've been here before and I'm locking the door And I'm not going back again Her eyes and arms and skin won't make it go away You'll wake up tomorrow and wrestle the sorrow That holds you down today Go on and hold her till the screaming is gone Go on believe her when she tells you nothing's wrong But I'm the only one Who'll walk across the fire for you I'm the only one Who'll drown in my desire for you It's only fear that makes you run The demons that you're hiding from When all your promises are gone I'm the only one |

If I wanted to I could do anything right
I could dance with the devil on a Saturday night If I wanted to I could turn matches to gold I could smoke drink swear and I would never grow old I wouldn't have to be in love with you If I only wanted to If I only wanted to If I wanted to I could run fast as a train Be as sharp as a needle that's twisting your brain If I wanted to I could turn mountains to sand Have political leaders in the palm of my hand I wouldn't have to be in love with you If I only wanted to If I only wanted to I could leave tonight And I would be all right Stop holding on If I wanted to If I only wanted to If I wanted to I could be as patient as death Fix this hole in my heart leaking into my flesh If I wanted to I could turn sparks into ice There'd never be another woman who could make you think twice I wouldn't have to be in love with you If I only wanted to If I only wanted to |

Come to my window
Crawl inside, wait by the light of the moon Come to my window I'll be home soon I would dial the numbers Just to listen to your breath I would stand inside my hell And hold the hand of death You don't know how far I'd go To ease this precious ache You don't know how much I'd give Or how much I can take Just to reach you Just to reach you Just to reach you Come to my window Crawl inside, wait by the light of the moon Come to my window I'll be home soon Keeping my eyes open I cannot afford to sleep Giving away promises I know that I can't keep Nothing fills the blackness That has seeped into my chest I need you in my blood I am forsaking all the rest Just to reach you Just to reach you Oh to reach you Come to my window Crawl inside, wait by the light of the moon Come to my window I'll be home soon I don't care what they think I don't care what they say What do they know about this love anyway Come to my window Crawl inside, wait by the light of the moon Come to my window I'll be home soon |

Why did you steal the matches
From the one room motel Once they gave you answers Now they give you hell They will never understand They wonder where did they go wrong How could you be so selfish Why can't you get along And as you pray in your darkness For wings to set you free You are bound to your silent legacy You've seen it in the movies And you've heard it on the street Craving the affection Your blood is full of heat They don't listen to your reasons As original as sin Deny all that you feel And they will bring you home again And as you pray in your darkness For wings to set you free You are bound to your silent legacy Your body is alive But no one told you what you'd feel The empty aching hours Trying to conceal The natural progression Is the coming of your age But they cover it with shame And turn it into rage And as you pray in your darkness For wings to set you free You are bound to your silent legacy You are digging for the answers Until your fingers bleed To satisfy the hunger To satiate the need They feed you on the guilt To keep you humble keep you low Some man and myth they made up A thousand years ago And as you pray in your darkness For wings to set you free You are bound to your silent legacy Mothers tell your children Be quick you must be strong Life is full of wonder Love is never wrong Remember how they taught you How much of it was fear Refuse to hand it down The legacy stops here Oh my child... |

"I Will Never Be The Same"
So you walked with me for a while Bared your naked soul And you told me of your plan How you would never let them know In the morning of the night You cried a long lost child And I tried on I tried to hold you But you were young And you were wild But I, I will never be the same Oh I, I will never be the same Caught in your eyes Lost in your name I will never be the same Secrets of your life I never wanted for myself But you guarded them like a lie Placed up on the highest shelf In the morning of the night When I woke to find you gone I knew your distant devil Must be draggin' you along But I, I will never be the same Oh I, I will never be the same Caught in your eyes Lost in your name I will never be the same And you swore that you were bound for glory And for wanting you had no shame But I loved you And then I lost you And I will never be the same But I, I will never be the same Oh I, I will never be the same Caught in your eyes Lost in your name I will never be the same |

She wakes up in the morning
With a pain in her jet black head A decaf coffee in her hand And a Marlboro red She drives down to the office In her Japanese car With the radio blasting She dreams of taking it too far But today she'll pay the bills She won't think about the thrills That pass away She's an all American girl An all American girl And she will live and die in this man's world An all American girl Her eyes are black as leather And her hair is killer red How could she keep the baby When she can barely keep her head She don't owe nobody nothing And she ain't on the street But these drinks are getting heavy And these lips are getting weak She don't understand Why she can't climb out of the sand And break away She's an all American girl An all American girl And she will live and die in this man's world An all American girl Her lover never came home And it's half past three Today her best friend told her He's HIV Something's gotta give somewhere Forcing circles into squares She keeps pushing on She's an all American girl An all American girl And she will live and die in this man's world An all American girl |

In these days and these hours of fury
When the darkness and answers are thin Lovers come and check out in a hurry Shallow and hollow again Come lay your body beside me To dream to sleep with the lamb To the question your eyes seem to send Am I your passion your promise your end I say I am Yes I am Your passion your promise your end Yes I am Barring divine intervention There is nothing between you and I And if I carelessly forgot to mention Your body your power can sanctify Come feed your hunger your thirst Lay it down the beast will die You can question my heart once again Am I your passion your promise your end I say I am Yes I am Your passion your promise your end Yes I am I will stand firm in the tempest I will ride destinys' trail To believe when the truth comes up empty To hold and respect without fail Come and be one in the motion A desire they cannot comprehend Never to question again For I am your passion your promise your end Oh yes I am |

"Resist"
The sign says do not enter No trespassing allowed With visions of redemption I walk against the crowd The sun is white with envy Confusion on the ground Breathing soft and holy Temptation's only sound A demon's day in madness kissed I swear I never had it like this Forbidden yet I cannot resist Shocked in silent trances Our eyes search just to know What makes flesh and body hunger For another burning soul Conscience quiet pleading In the corner of my eye But seeing is believing All consequences fly A demon's day in madness kissed I swear I never had it like this Forbidden yet I cannot resist With fever I persist The rages of your kiss My reckless heart in fist And I cannot resist A demon's day in madness kissed I swear I never had it like this Forbidden yet I cannot resist |

Ruins
Don't try to call There are some bridges that burn Beyond recognition beyond repair Don't say you've changed There are some forces that turn Beyond recollection beyond my stare When I feel the cold in the dark I know you're there Long ago I was a woman in pain A woman in need I ran to you Long ago I did not understand You were making me bleed I ran to you When I feel the cold in the dark I know what you do I will crawl through my past Over stones blood and glass In the ruins Reaching under the fence As I try to make sense In the ruins I know your heart has held its own fear It's perfectly clear What they did to you In my heart it's the screaming I hear I won't let them come near Since my love knew you When I feel the cold in the dark I remember you I will crawl through my past Over stones blood and glass In the ruins Reaching under the fence As I try to make sense In the ruins Night after night I am carving it out I will carry it down to the waterside Night after night I am hearing the sound Of wings that come beating I will not hide When I feel the cold in the dark I will know why I will crawl through my past Over stones blood and glass In the ruins Reaching under the fence As I try to make sense In the ruins But if I am to heal I must first learn to feel In the ruins I will crawl |

"Talking To My Angel"
Don't be afraid Close your eyes Lay it all down Don't you cry Can't you see I'm going Where I can see the sun rise I've been talking to my angel And he said that it's alright I've always had to run I don't know just why Desire slowly smoking Under the midwest sky There's something waiting out there That says I've got to try I've been talking to my angel And he said that it's alright This town thinks I'm crazy They just think I'm strange Sometimes they want to own me Sometimes they wish I'd change But I can feel the thunder Underneath my feet I sold my soul for freedom It's lonely but it's sweet Don't be afraid Close your eyes Lay it all down Don't you cry Can't you see I'm going Where I can see the sun rise I've been talking to my angel And he said that it's alright |
