Oh, isn't it strange
How we move our lives for another day? Like skipping a beat What if a great wave should wash us all away? Just thinking out loud Don't mean to dwell on this dying thing But look at my blood It's alive right now, And deep and sweet within Pouring through our veins Intoxicate moving wine to tears And drinking it deep Then an evening spent dancing It's you and me... This love will open our world From the dark side we can see a glow of something bright Oh, there's much more than we see here Don't burn the day away Is this not enough? This blessed sip of life, Is it not enough? Staring down at the ground Oh, then complain and pray for more from above, You greedy little pig Stop, just watch your world trickle away Oh, it's your problem now It'll all be dead and gone in a few short years Just love will open our eyes Just love will put the hope back in our minds Much more than we could ever know Oh, so don't burn the day away Don't burn the day away Come sister, my brother Shake up your bones, shake up your feet I'm saying open up And let the rain come pouring in Wash out this tired notion That the best is yet to come But while you're dancing on the ground Don't think of when you're gone Love, love, love, what more is there? 'Cause we need the light of love in here Don't beat your head Dry your eyes Let the love in there There's bad times But that's okay Just look for love in it And don't burn the day away... Look, here are we On this starry night, staring into space And I must say I feel as small as dust lying down here What point could there be troubling? Head down wondering what will become of me? Why concern we cannot see But no reason to abandon it The time is short but that's all right Maybe I'll go in the middle of the night Take your hands from your eyes, my love All good things must come to an end some time But don't burn the day away Don't burn the day away... Come sister, my brother Shake up your bones, shake up your feet I'm saying open up And let the rain come flooding in Wash out this tired notion That the best is yet to come But while you're dancing on the ground Don't think of when you're gone Love, love, love, what more is there? 'Cause we need the light of love in here Don't beat your head Dry your eyes Let the love in there There're bad times But that's okay Just look for love in it |

Spoon in spoon
Stirring my coffee I thought of you And turned to the gate And on my way came up with the answers I scratched my head And the answers were gone From hand to hand, Wrist to the elbow Red blood sand Could Dad be God? Crosses cross hung out like a wet rag Forgive you? Why? You hung me out to dry And maybe I'm crazy But laughing out loud Makes the pain pass by And maybe you're a little crazy But laughing out loud makes it all subside Holding, I'm holding I'm still falling, I'm still falling Spoon in spoon Stirring my coffee I thought of this And turned to the gate But on my way Crack lightning and thunder I hid my head And the storm slipped away Well, maybe I'm crazy But laughing out loud Makes it all pass by And maybe you're a little crazy And laughing out loud Makes it all alright Laughing out loud From time to time, Minutes and hours Some move ahead while Some lag behind It's like the balloon that Rise and then vanish This drop of hope That falls from his eyes Spoon in spoon Stirring my coffee I think of this And turn to go away But as I walk There're voices behind me saying: "Sinners sin, come now and play." Laughing out loud... Come now and play... Come in from the cold for a while, Everything will be all right Come in from the noise for a time, Everything will be alright Everything will be alright For now, goodbye Friend, goodbye |

I've this creeping
Suspicion that things here are not as they seem Reassure me Why do I feel as if I'm in too deep? Now I've been praying For some way to show them I'm not what they see Yes, I have done wrong But what I did I thought needed be done I swear Oh, Unholy day If I leave now I might get away Oh, but this weighs on me As heavy as stone and as blue as I go I was just wondering if you'd come along Hold up my head when my head won't hold on I'll do the same if the same's what you want But if not I'll go I will go alone I'm a long way From that fool's mistake And now forever pay No, run I will run and I'll be ok I was just wondering if you'd come along Hold up my head when my head won't hold on I'll do the same if the same's what you want But if not I'll go I will go alone I go a long way To bury the past for I don't want to pay Oh, how I wish this To turn back the clock and do over again Now I'm just wondering if you'd come along Hold up my head when my head won't hold on I'll do the same if the same's what you want But if not I'll go I will go alone I need so To stay in your arms, see you smile, hold you close And oh it weighs on me As heavy as stone and of bone chilling cold I was just wondering if you'd come along Tell me you will. |

Don't drink the water, yeah
Come out, come out No use in hiding Come now, come now Can you not see? There's no place here What were you expecting? No room for both Just room for me So you will lay your arms down Yes, I will call this home Away, away You have been banished Your land is gone And given to me And here I will spread my wings Yes, I will call this home What's this you say? You feel the right to remain Then stay, and I will bury you What's that you say? Your father's spirit still lives in this place Well, I will silence you Here's the hitch Your horse is leaving Don't miss your boat It's leaving now And as you go I will spread my wings Yes, I will call this home I have no time to justify to you Fool, you're blind, move aside for me All I can say to you, my new neighbor Is you must move on, or I will bury you Now, as I rest my feet by this fire Those hands once warmed here Well, I have retired them I can breathe my own air And I can sleep more soundly Upon these poor souls I'll build Heaven and call it home 'Cause you're all dead now And I live with my justice And I live with my greedy need Or I live with no mercy And I live with my frenzied feeding I live with my hatred And I live with my jealousy Or I live with the notion That I don't need anyone but me Don't drink the water Don't drink the water There's blood in the water Don't drink the water Don't drink the water Don't drink the water There's blood in the water Don't drink the water There's blood in the water |
