For a price I'd do about anything Except pull the trigger For that I'd need a pretty good cause Then I heard of Dr. X The man with the cure Just watch the television Yeah, you'll see there's something going on Got no love for politicians Or that crazy sc
She always brings me what i need Without i beg and sweat and bleed When we're alone at night Waiting for the call She feeds my skin Sixteen and on the run from home Found a job in times square Working live s&m shows Twenty-five bucks [a fuck] And john's a happy man She wipes the filth away And it's back on the streets again Spreading the disease Everybody needs But no one wants to see Father william saved her from the streets She drank the lifeblood from the saviour's feet She's sister mary now, eyes as cold as ice He takes her once a week On the alter like a sacrifice Spreading the disease Everybody needs But no one wants to see Religion and sex are powerplays Manipulate the people for the money they pay Selling skin, selling god The numbers look the same on their credit cards Politicians say no to drugs While we pay for wars in south america [saudi arabia, on tour] Fighting fire with empty words While the banks get fat And the poor stay poor And the rich get rich And the cops get paid To look away As the one percent rules america Spreading the disease Everybody needs But no one wants to see The way society Keeps spreading the disease
In the wooden chair beside my window I wear a face born in the falling rain I talk to shadows from a lonely candle Recite the phrases from the wall I can't explain this holy pain
Six days ago my life had taken a tumble The orders came from high above they say A need to use me once again, they've got my number Further the cause, boy, yes, you know the game
I'll wait here for days longer 'Til the sister comes to wash my sins away She is the lady that can ease my sorrow She brings the only friend that helps me find my way
I search the past back to a time when I was younger A target for the new society Picked to displace the leaders Countering objectives of this new underground reality
Waiting for days longer 'Til sister comes to wash my sins away She is the lady that can ease my sorrow My love for her will help me find my way
(They'll say) My mission saved the world I stood proud My mission changed the world It turned my life around
I look around, my room is filled with candles Each one a story but they end the same I'll hide away in here the law will never find me The walls will tell the story of my pain
Waiting for days longer 'Til sister comes to wash my sins away She is the lady who can ease my sorrow She sets the pace for my delivery of pain
(They'll say) My mission saved the world And I stood proud My mission changed the world The underground
(They'll say) Will rise and save this world We'll all stand proud Our mission changed the world, we'll change the world We'll all stand proud
I've had enough and I want out! "You can't walk away now."
I looked back once And all I saw was his face Smiling, the needle crying Walking out of his room With mirrors, afraid I heard him scream You'll never get away
Cold and shaking I crawled down alleys to try And scrape away the tracks that marked me Slammed my face into walls of concrete I stared, amazed at the words written on the wall
Don't ever trust Don't ever trust the needle, it lies Don't ever trust Don't ever trust the needle when it cries Cries your name
Wet and raving The needle keeps calling me back To bloody my hands forever Carved my cure with the blade That left me in scars Now every time I'm weak Words scream from my arm
Don't ever trust Don't ever trust the needle, it lies Don't ever trust Don't ever trust the needle when it cries Cries your name
Don't ever trust Don't ever trust the needle, it lies Don't ever trust Don't ever trust the needle when it cries Cries your name
I awoke on impact Under surveillance from the camera eye Searching high and low The criminal mind found at the scene of the crime Handcuffed and blind, i didn't do it She said she loved me I guess i never knew But do we ever, ever really know? She said she'd meet me on the other side But i knew right then, i'd never find her I don't believe in love I never have, i never will I don't believe in love It's never worth the pain that you feel No more nightmares, i've seen them all From the day i was born, they've haunted my every move Every open hand's there to push and shove No time for love it doesn't matter She made a difference I guess she had a way Of making every night seem bright as day Now i walk in shadows, never see the light She must have lied 'cause she never said goodbye I don't believe in love I never have, i never will I don't believe in love I'll just pretend she never was real I don't believe in lovev i need to forget her face, i see it still I don't believe in love It's never worth the pain that you feel No chance for contact There's no raison d'etre My only hope is one day i'll forget The pain of knowing what can never be With or without love it's all the same to me I don't believe in love I never have, i never will I don't believe in love I'll just pretend she never was real I don't believe in love I need to forget her face, i see it still I don't believe in love It's never worth the pain that you feel
Another hungry look in her eyes again Pacing the floor the hunt begins Skin tight leather provides my pleasure Wake my fear, surge with the pressure Walk away and leave forever, do I dare?
Raise my eyes, she stands Holding out healing hands Are you happy now?
I walk the thin line for you Do just what you say to With fear as my friend I walk the thin line one more time for you
Addictive face pretending, don't speak the word Forbidden sin relenting, I barely heard Screams of entry blur my vision Wake my fear of divine intervention Crawl away and bleed forever, if you dare
Hand on mouth the game goes on Love, our stage to play upon Are you happy now?
I walk the thin line for you Do just what you say to With fear as my friend I walk the thin line one more time for you
I walk the thin line for you Do just what you say to I walk the thin line for you Do just what you say to With fear as my friend I walk the thin line one more time for you
Every time I leave You say you won't be there. And you're always there. Every time I cry your name at night, you pull close and say it's alright. I look in your eyes, just like the rain. Washing me, rain wash over me. Touching your face, I feel the heat of your heartbeat echo in my head like a scream. What you do to me! Waited so long I can't wait another day without you. Jet City Woman. It's a long way, home to my Jet City Woman. I see her face everywhere, can't get her out of my mind. Whenever I'm alone I'm thinking, there's a part missing from my life. Wonder where I'd be without your love holding me together now I'm watching the time tick, tick away. Face grows longer every day. Fortunes are lost on the women I've seen but without you I can't breathe! You're the air to me! Waited so long, I'm all alone thinking about you. Jet City Woman. Got to find my way home to her. Jet City Woman. I see her face everywhere I look! Jet City Woman. Just a thousand miles and I'll be there Jet City Woman, to make the clouds go away. Time for some blue sky! Waited so long now the plane's delayed and hour, reminds me of all our days apart. Hold on, just a little longer. Jet City Woman. Wonder where I'd be, you're the air to me. Jet City Woman. Eyes like the rain, rain down on me. Jet City Woman. No more nights alone I'm almost home now. Jet City Woman. Close my eyes, I'm there in my Jet City.
Last night the word came down Ten dead in Chinatown Innocent, they're only crime was Being in the wrong place at the wrong time Too bad, people say, what's wrong with the kids today? Tell you uright now they've got nothing to lose They're building EMPIRE
Protests in New York Listen to the call of the wild Brother, sisters carrying signs Breathe deep before it's too late The sky is falling burning your eyes Down in New Orleans River's boiling, nothing living, nothing to eat Thank the Lord, Daddy's working
Back in '86 February and a special number I just had to know, is this feeling real? I picked up the phone I was one step closer to the danger zone I knew she'd steal my heart away But I know I couldn't live without her love The first time she looked at me Her smile stayed on my mind I never thought I'd ever meet A woman of her kind Now I'm lost in a lover's daze And I'm not walking out Gonna give my heart away And hope that she will always stay Call for me, run to me Whenever you are lonely Call for me, run to me my lady love Won't you come and show me that precious smile And maybe stay for a little while Close the door, Toss the key Say you will always be my one and only Looking back it seems to me The message in her eyes Left a lasting spell on me A feeling I can't hide Now I'm lost in a lover's daze And I'm not walking out Gonna give my heart away And hope she will always stay Call for me, run to me Whenever you are lonely Call for me, run to me my lady love Won't you come and show me that precious smile And maybe stay for a little while Treat me to your sense of taste and style Together we can walk the miles Close the door, toss the key Say that you will always be my one and only
Lying here awake again. Minutes before dawn I hear your breathing, your heart beat like a song. Lately I’ve been feeling a little less then good but seeing things for the first time like I never could.
I’ve had my head down against the door, trying to get to something I couldn’t find before. That special something, that feeds my soul, is a rhythm to live by, it’s a rhythm of hope.
Something drives us onwards. Something gives us strength. What makes our judgment falter is the questions we think. Who am I to fly so high? What gives me the right to dream of what could be, keep reaching for the light?
I’ve been standing in front of that door, basing my happiness on what’ I knew before. Searching for something that moves my soul. A rhythm to hold to, a rhythm to live to.
Have you been down like this before? I guarantee there’s something waiting for you just open that door. A rhythm to live by, that moves your soul. A rhythm that holds you. A rhythm to live to.
And if there’s one thing we all need now, it’s a rhythm to live by, a rhythm of hope.

Taken to a place underground, a cavern, ten thousand steps down. The only light was fire fly glow, reflecting in the blue crystal show. Feeling in the darkness surrounding me, roots of giant Sequoia trees anchor the canopy of life that's above. The answer to the mystery of life is _
Traveled through the jungles of the Yucatan and drank the potion from the magic man. Held the starlight inches from my face, pushed the door open, # 7. I walked the path way to heaven. Saw the same face of God.
Seems every where I go I see the same face, I feel the same flow. With every one I meet and every hand I shake, I'm every man, trying my best to get to know because everything's at stake.
We're the same tribe...............
Passing through Morocco for the faithful is a trip. Hallucinating visions drives my desert ship. For a thousand miles we could not fail, can't enjoy if you can't inhale. Clearly a lifetimes need of some experience and for the record, peace.
Seems every where I go I see the same face, I feel the same flow. With every one I meet and every hand I shake, I see myself in every man, trying my best to get to know because everything's at stake.
Thank-you for the lies, the lies you sold us. Thank-you for this vision of violence. Thank-you for this song you gave me to sing. Thank-you for the capping day of a culture that lay dying. Yes it's us dying. Maybe it won't be long, now that it's all gone on......
It's all gone wrong and there's blood on our hands. It's all gone wrong and there's blood ... It's all gone wrong and there's blood on our hands. It's all gone wrong and there's blood ...on our hands.
We saw them lying there with their arms around each other, staring through their fear and the miles between our heads. You could have told the truth. It was your decision to sacrifice integrity and compassion for greed.
Now it's all gone wrong and there's blood on our hands it's all gone wrong and there's blood ... It's all gone wrong and there's blood on our hands.
Have you noticed The way people seem today? Look in their eyes, you can feel their uncertainty. Working hard for what they fear others would think. Empty hearts are afraid to break away…don’t be afraid.
We could all use a little sunshine Take the day off …outside. Hey look around, everything’s better now And here we are and we’re doin’ fine.
If we look inside, breath deep, and count to ten. We’ll find what we need to see us through All the way to the end. We’ll know all the answers Once we stop this judgment game And realize deep down we’re all the same.
We could all use a little sunshine Take the day off and smile. Hey look around everything’s better now, And here we are and getting along fine. Yeah, we’re doin’ just fine.
We could all use some sunshine Take the day off and smile. Hey look around, everything’s better And here we are getting along just fine.
Next time we could try a little harder And quickly put out the fire, By working out our differences and Finding truth we can all believe in.
We’re looking at life from a different side. We’re looking at like from a different side.
And I know that we’ll all be fine. And I know that we’ll all be fine.
