I see you crawling across the floor
Never see you standing anymore You take whatever's put in your hand You ask for more until you can't Decora It's not the first time you'll take a fall Act like you've never sleen double before We tie deep into the past Take this chance with me cause it's your last |

Eyes go places that you can't see
It's not that easy to hide from me I hear the whispers everywhere I go I hear the laughter everywhere I go 3 AM with the TV on 4 AM, TV on The nervous ticking of my heart Restlessness when we're apart .. Think about the last thing that we said Again and again it runs through my head And I hear footsteps that aren't yours They sound like yours, but they all do ... Not much left for me to pray Why sleep or dream when I'm awake My eyes in places you forgot to look My eyes in places you forgot to look |

As he fired up the drum machine
He stole a glance at the empty seats He took a minute to retune his guitar As the hour grew late I wanna send this out to Richie Vey In his thrift-store corner of the world His soul is my cheap laugh As the hour grows late |

Julie Christie, the rumors are true
As the pages turn, my eyes are glued To the movie star and his sordid life Mr. X and his old-suffering wife I spent so much time dreaming about Eleanor Bron In my room with the curtains drawn See her in the arms of Paul Say it, I can say no more As the music swells somehow stronger from adversity Our hero finds his inner peace So now I'm looking for a lucky charm With a needle hanging out of its arm .. As time goes by I know it's gonna happen I know it's going away Gonna take its toll, gonna take its toll Gonna take my time And I'm thinking about the way things are And I'm thinking about the way things were Thinking about Eleanor Bron And I'm thinking about a lucky charm And I'm thinking about the needle Oh, I'm thinking about the needle And I'm thinking about... |

Show me where you keep all your secrets upstairs
Night after night you sleep while they're setting off flares Someone came and took all the roses away Now you'll sit showing me tears if you want me to stay Cause down the street all the meters have run out of time, run out of time I waited for you as the trees swayed out of time In a crowded room I pick up your lonely stare I'll cover for you like a slipcover covers a chair But someone came and took all the roses away It was only 5 minutes but it felt like it stretched into a day Someone came and took all the roses away |

Walking on 10th Street
The guy in front of me, Walkman, headphones on, Stones cranked The thing that caught my ear, singing loud and clear Well every couple of steps I heard "Woo-woo" And he said it so un-self-consciously That never it would occur to me that He revealed himself and I'd offer a blue I was drunk the night we met, I might try to forget Except I know so were you I don't really care, cause we went on from there And I try not to hide from what is true The other night I had this dream You told me what you want from me I gave it to you instantly and I woke up without a clue |

Oh no, I think I'm falling for a false alarm
Like an all-day second stuck Until you crunch the right arm Well if I open my eyes, if I just pay attention to McNew Well, I just held back To listen to your cues So it's not enough I never meant to hold you down Waiting for the firestorm Waiting for the false alarm Well, is it really true? Well, I know, I mean I guess, uh, why not Well is it really true, I don't know, Too hard to figure out I'm gonna mark my words, cross my eyes and stomp my feet Cause I don't want you feeling bad, feeling bad, feeling Worse than you do Well, I'll stand my ground, hide behind a fake smile Think I'll talk about something else Just for a little while Aw, said it once, said it twice, said it - you can tell it's the same old tune Straight down to the bitter end Tell me when there's more to go there soon It's gonna hold my tongue in place, think about what to do If you don't see nothing wrong this time Well I'm taking it out on you |

I wonder what's on your mind
I wonder what's on your mind Look around and see What it does to me I wonder what's on your mind I think I'll throw it all away I think I'll throw it all away And if dreams come back to me I'll pretend that I don't see I'll just cover my eyes instead It'll surely come It'll surely come Here it comes again |

People say that once you dyed your hair
You started showing up everywhere Well you're standing tall, and you've got nothing at all So you grab at everything you see Now the world keeps spinning when you die While the lights keep flashing in the sky They'll be sighing after normal sights Drags up baggage, pretend to read Demand the pages that you'll never redo Sun sets down on your skittish heart Cedar mile, how it's coming apart Now the world keeps spinning when you die While the lights keep flashing in the sky They'll be sighing after normal fights Pickled eels, lemon peels Hired hand picks you something new Rainbow nights, stunning whites Stars that shine but don't belong to you The passive fools by the swimming pool You'll fit right in with their pathetic grins Stunning tricks, bottomless pits You remind me where I don't want to be While the lights keep flashing in the sky They'll be sighing after normal sights Now the world keeps spinning when you die |

Got something to say, sit down on the bed
Something that I usually leave unsaid It doesn't come so easily, I guess that's no surprise I wanna see my heart's reflection in your eyes Let's lock the door, hide the key I'll try to look like you if you'll dress up like me And you play dumb and I'll play too, nobody has to know I wanna see my heart's reflection in your eyes In your eyes Let's jump this ship, let's cut out Let's get into the wagon and drive until the motor falls out I want just us two, I don't want to have to hide my heart I wanna see it in your eyes as we ride on and on |

'There is a group of young Chinese who love music as their manner of
expression. They find love in adversity and dedication. They represent dramatic, living love.' Let's go change, you hokey little runt who wanted to dance, maybe fifteen years old, maybe sixteen years old, she says, "Hey man, you all suck!" So I get on up there, put her on her little ass with my honky stuff, with this attack on love. A little later on, it don't matter when, I get up back on the dance floor again. I say, "Hey, baby, what's your name? What's your name? What bothers you today? Are you ready for a little something to do?" |

You, you won't talk about what we see
when the lights are out And I'm willing to hold your hand while you're lost, while you're so full of doubt Walk for miles, on your own loose ends, I'll find you there I'll find you there You, you walk up thin blue lines possible with reality And I, I see through small red eyes, glowing still at your uncertainty Out of darkness you will come around, I know you will, I know you will And I'll find you, and I'll find you there |
