Climbing on a mountain
Floating out on the sea Far from lights of a city The elements, they speak to me Whispering that life Existed long before greed Balancing the world On its knee Don't see some men as 1/2 empty See them 1/2 full of shit Thinking that we're all but slaves There ain't gonna be No middle anymore It's been said before The haves be having more Yet still bored Won't someone save? Won't someone save the world? Woah, woah Woah, woah Ooh, ooh Ooh, ooh |

The waiting drove me mad
You're finally here and I'm a mess I take your entrance back Can't let you roam inside my head I don't want to take what you can give I would rather starve than eat your bread I would rather run but I can't walk Guess I'll lie alone just like before I'll take the firmest path Oh, and I must refuse your test Push me and I will resist This behavior's not unique I don't want to hear from those who know They can buy, but can't put on my clothes I don't want to limp for them to walk Never would have known of me before I don't want to be held in your debt I'll pay it off in blood, let I be wed I'm already cut up and half-dead I'll end up alone like I began Everything has chains Absolutely nothing's changed Take my hand, not my picture, spilled my tincture... I don't want to take what you can give I would rather starve than eat your breast All the things that others want for me Can't buy what I want because it's free Can't buy what I want because it's free Can't be what you want because I'm... Ain't supposed to be just one Oh, to live and die, let it be done I figure I'll be damned, all alone like I began It's your move now I thought you were a friend But I guess I... I guess I hate you... |

G-R-E-E-D
G-R-E-E-D G-R-E-E-D It's a disease and they're all green It emanates from their being A satiation with occupation And like weeds with big leaves Stealing light from what's beneath Where they have more Still they take more I know then I don't There's a stowaway with my throat It's deceiving I don't believe him We can scream out our doors Behind the wall a fat man snores In his dreams he's Choking tea leaves Well I guess There's nothing wrong with what you say But don't sell me "There can't be better ways" Tell the captain "The boat's not safe and we're drowning" Turns out He's the one making waves, waves, waves But I said There's nothing wrong with what you say Believe me Just asking you to sway No white Or black, just grey Can you feel this World with your heart and not your brain G-R-E-E-D G-R-E-E-D |

The selfish, they're all standing in line
Faithing and hoping to buy themselves time Me, I figure as each breath goes by I only own my mind The north is to south what the clock is to time There's east and there's west and there's everywhere life I know I was born and I know that I'll die The in-between is mine I am mine And the feeling, it gets left behind All the innocence lost at one time Significant behind the eyes There's no need to hide We're safe tonight The ocean is full 'cause everyone's crying The full moon is looking for friends at high tide The sorrow grows bigger when the sorrow's denied I only know my mind I am mine And the meaning, it gets left behind All the innocence lost at one time Significant behind the eyes There's no need to hide We're safe tonight, whoa And the feelings that get left behind All the innocence broken with lies Significance between the lines We may need to hide And the meanings that get left behind All the innocence lost at one time We're all different behind the eyes There's no need to hide |

Once divided, nothing left to subtract
Some words when spoken can't be taken back Walks on his own with thoughts he can't help thinking Future's above, but in the past, he's slow and sinking Caught a bolt 'a lightning, cursed the day he let it go Nothingman Nothingman Isn't it something? Nothingman She once believed in every story he had to tell One day she stiffened, took the other side Empty stares from each corner of a shared prison cell One just escapes, one's left inside the well And he who forgets will be destined to remember Nothingman Nothingman Isn't it something? Nothingman Oh, she don't want him Oh, she won't feed him after he's flown away Oh, into the sun, ah, into the sun Burn, burn Nothingman Nothingman Isn't it something? Nothingman Nothingman Nothingman Could've been something Nothingman Oh... oh... oh... |

I seem to recognize your face
Haunting, familiar, yet I can't seem to place it Cannot find the candle of thought to light your name Lifetimes are catching up with me All these changes taking place I wish I'd seen the place, but no one's ever taken me Hearts and thoughts they fade, fade away Hearts and thoughts they fade, fade away I swear I recognize your breath Memories like fingerprints are slowly raising Me you wouldn't recall, for I'm not my former It's hard when you're stuck upon the shelf I changed by not changing at all, small town predicts my fate Perhaps that's what no one wants to see I just wanna scream hello My god, it's been so long, never dreamed you'd return But now here you are, and here I am Hearts and thoughts, they fade away Hearts and thoughts, they fade, fade away Hearts and thoughts, they fade, fade away Hearts and thoughts, they fade away Hearts and thoughts, they fade, fade away Hearts and thoughts, they fade, fade away Hearts and thoughts, they fade, fade away Hearts and thoughts, they fade |

Sheets of empty canvas
Untouched sheets of clay Were laid spread out before me As her body once did All five horizons Revolved around her soul As the Earth reaches the Sun Now, the air I tasted and breathed Has taken a turn Ooh, and all I taught her was everything Ooh, I know she gave me all that she wore And now my bitter hands Chafe beneath the clouds Of what was everything All the pictures have All been washed in black Tattooed everything I take a walk outside I'm surrounded by some kids at play I can feel their laughter So why do I sear? Mm, and twisted thoughts that spin round my head I'm spinning, oh, I'm spinning How quick the Sun can drop away And now my bitter hands Cradle broken glass Of what was everything All the pictures have All been washed in black Tattooed everything All the love gone bad Turned my world to black Tattooed all I see, all that I am, all I'll be, yeah Uh-huh Uh-huh Woo I know that someday you'll have a beautiful life I know you'll be a star In somebody else's sky But why, why, why can't it be Why can't it be mine?

Time to emancipate I guess it was the beatings, made me wise But I'm not about to give thanks, or apologize I couldn't breathe, holding me down Hand on my face, pushed to the ground Enmity gauged, united by fear Forced to endure what I could not forgive I seem to look away Wounds in the mirror waved It wasn't my surface most defiled Head at your feet, fool to your crown Fist on my plate, swallowed it down Enmity gauged, united by fear Tried to endure what I could not forgive Saw things Saw things Saw things Saw things Clearer Clearer Once you were in my rear view mirror I gather speed from you, fucking with me Once and for all, I'm far away I hardly believe, finally the shades are raised Hey, yeah Saw things so much clearer Once you, once you Rear view mirror Saw things so much clearer Once you, once you Rear view mirror Saw things so much clearer Once you, once you Rear view mirror Saw things so much clearer Once you Oh yeah |

She lived on the curve in the road
In an old tar paper shack. On the south side of the town On the wrong side of the tracks. Sometimes on the way into town We'd say, "Mama can we stop and give her a ride?" Sometimes we did But her hands flew from her side. Wild eyed Crazy Mary. Down the long dirt road Past the Parson's place. That old blue car We used to race. Little country store with a sign tacked to the side. Said 'NO L-O-I-T-E-R-I-N-G ALLOWED.' Underneath that sign always congregated quite a crowd. Take a bottle drink it down. Pass it around. Take a bottle drink it down. Drink it... Pass it around. Pass it a... A-take a bottle drink it down. Pass it... Pass it a... Pass it around. One night thunder cracked. Mercy backed outside my windowsill. Dreamed I was flying High above the trees, over the hills. Looked down into the house of Mary. Terrible thoughts, newspaper covered walls. And Mary rising up above it all. Oh... Oh... Oh... Next morning on the way into town Saw some skid marks and followed them around. Over the curve, Through the fields, Into the house of Mary. That what you fear the most could meet you halfway. (x2) Take a bottle drink it down. Pass it around. Take a bottle drink it down. Pass it... Pass it around. Pass it a... Take a bottle drink it down. Pass it... Pass it a... Pass it around. Oh, pass it a... Pass it arround. Pass it a... Pass it a... Pass it a... Oh yeah. |

There are colors on the street, red, white and blue
People shufflin' their feet, people sleepin' in their shoes But there's a warnin' sign on the road ahead There's a lot of people sayin' we'd be better off dead Don't feel like Satan but I'm to them So I try to forget it anyway I can Keep on rockin' in the free world Keep on rockin' in the free world Keep on rockin' in the free world Keep on rockin' in the free world I see a woman in the night with a baby in her hand Under an old street light near a garbage can Now, she's put the kid away and she's gone to get a hit She hates her life and what she's done to it That's one more kid that'll never go to school Never get to fall in love, never get to be cool Keep on rockin' in the free world Keep on rockin' in the free world Keep on rockin' in the free world Keep on rockin' in the free world We got a thousand points of light for the homeless man We got a kindler, gentler, machine gun hand We've got department stores and toilet paper Got styrofoam garbage for the ozone layer Got a man of the people says keep hope alive Got fuel to burn, got roads to drive Keep on rockin' in the free world Keep on rockin' in the free world Keep on rockin' in the free world |
