When I was a young boy Said some man parted some sea They said believe in us Why should they lie to me
Now I'm not a young boy What I believe is what I believe But I still get fooled sometimes It's so goddamned easy (Girl Part)
Now that I'm a grown man Be the best that I can be Been down every rocky road And I'm bloodied at my knees But I treat you like a princess Never ask to be the king Just believe in me Believe in me Believe in me Yeah yeah Where does it leave me When you don't believe in me Where does it leave me When you don't believe in me
I'd climb any mountain Yeah I'd cross any sea I might break down and cry But I'd drop down my bottle of rye If you'd just believe in me Believe in me Believe in me Where does it leave me When you don't believe in me Where does it leave me When you don't believe in me
But I'm still my own man Yeah I'm still my own man And I do what I can And while you're treating me raw I still make my own law I still make my own law
Come on Believe in me Believe in me Yeah....me Believe in me Yeah Come on Believe in me Can't you see just believe in me Come on Believe in me Yeah yeah Believe in me
It's been four months since You gone away My bed is empty and my heart Still feels the pain yeah the pain
I see your picture in a magazine I look away still see you starin' at me At me
Chorus I walk the streets at night And there's no one else in my sight But you In my mind
Cause I still love you Yeah I still love you I
Buy a ticket to a subway train A one-way token just to end my pain From you yeah from you Ticket says destination unknown The car stops and I'm back at home All alone Without you without you
Chorus I walk the streets at night And there's no one else in my Sight but you In my mind
Cause I still love you Yeah I still love you I
I saw you at a restaurant down on 42nd Street Drinkin' red wine and laughin' I kept walkin' by myself with a bottle Of rye I don't need you baby
And you're foolin' yourself when You say You don't need me I said you're foolin' yourself When you say you don't need me
And I'm lyin' fallin' down in the alley Yeah I'm lyin' to myself as I'm Screamin'
Chorus
I saw some chick the other day She had a smile that looked so cool It looked like you so I walked away
My eyes are tired but I still look cool My tears are past And I don't need you, don't need You, need you
"If you thought I needed you why Would I be lookin' at chicks and Lookin' at French fashion magazines"
Extra extra read all about my Loss of sanity I have often wondered what my Life really means to me Wasted days and broken dreams Let it all slip away from me And if you pick up the pieces of A broken man, you'll find a Fan of the family Yeah the family
Chorus Now you're all alone In the meadow Sedate your lonely soul With the man in the meadow No need to telephone When you're out in the meadow Cause you live your life alone With the man in the meadow And me
Saw a friend of mine Guess he just didn't see me Looked into his eyes And he walked right through me He lived a life of alibies and Broken ties that set him free yeah Free, yeah free
And why'd this dream fade so Fast And why am I lookin' towards The past to set me free From me and my family My family yeah yeah
Set down beside your grave At peace with God and the holy Slave We're gathered here to shed A tear And think about our goddamn mortal Years You had your start You made your mark And then you turn around And leave us in the dark, fuck In the dark
"Why does everything always end Up feeling so goddamn cold"
Once again I woke up this Morning And a warm spot still long cold Gone Then smell of you and your sweet Perfume Still lingers on, lingers on, lingers On
Chorus I wrap my arms around you But all I get is icy cold yeah
Run my hands through Your long blonde hair But once again you're just not There Just not there
You know I look but just can't find The reasons To face another day Cause I feel like crawling up inside Girl Just fading away, fading away, fad- Ing away...
Chorus
That's alright, girl I want you to know that I'll keep on Walking I got both my feet on the ground And check it out I'm gonna stick it To you
Yesterday I met a girl just like you She had the same smile and same Sweet perfume So I turned around and walked away Me, my blade and my bottle of blues My bottle of blues My bottle of blues
Chorus Repeat
That's alright, girl I keep walking, I keep walking, I Keep walking, I keep Walking, I keep walking
You got somethin' to say to me Well say it to my face I'm so sick of society That says I'm out of place I come around, you run and Hide, pretend you don't know me The time will come, you'll pay The price, just wait and See
You try to cramp my style, When that word means nothin' To me Just go away, you're fuckin' Decay And you thought you had the Right to kick dirt at me?
And now I got a great big House and my dick' real hard Was that your daughter with Blonde hair, I think I got her pink panties man, send Her back over You let life mean nothing man Worth of status went too far All this shit you see, never Meant dick to me
I saw the news, I've read the Lines I've seen it for myself Now you're the ones I clearly see That really need some help So now you ask me to join your Club of upper society You twist shit up, you turn around You think you're the picture of Morality
Then you call came across my Telephone Said old friends are meeting Will you come up maybe
I said I'll try to make it You left me talking to a tone
Ten years didn't seem so long Has it been that long, baby Has it been that long since I've Gone away
Many days and nights have Passed since I've seen you, mama So many things have passed Our eyes A ring has come and gone From my finger, baby I've stumbled, fallen down And yes I've even cried Chorus
It's been ten years since I've seen you, baby Since I've promised You the moon It's been that long since I've whispered in your ear Let's celebrate now that We're home
(Whisper) It's been a long time Since I've seen you, yeah! You're a memory from the past That'll always last But life goes on, but it's been So long...etc.
I think about the past, it's gone Away so fast I'm still the same human being I've traveled many miles and all Just the while I've learned about the things I've Seen It's been ten years since I've seen You, baby Since I've promised you the moon It's been that long since I've whis- Pered sweet in your ear
Let's celebrate now that we're Home
It's been ten years since I've seen You, baby Since I've promised you the moon It's been that long since I've whis- Pered in your ear Maybe I'll call ya or just see ya Soon
I don't really need the ego Of being a pop star Playing rock & roll makes Me stand hard & tall Once an old man with blood on His hands Said "Pick up my guitar and Use it" The he took it from me said "Let Your soul run free"
Chorus People get so stuck on getting Their Name in lights Fuckin' some famous model Keepin' their assholes tight
So I played that guitar Til my dick got hard I fucked that bitch night & day Time went by and that old man Died Got a note "Remember what I Said" Brought flowers to his grave Laid 'em down, and my fingers Started to bleed I was finally free I was finally free yeah
Chorus
Uh uh uh Don't get me wrong I ain't singin' This song bout bros who truly Deserve it But money & fame is for those Truly Lame. The ones who need To get their Heads lit So I play my guitar, Yeah I played That bitch all night Long Yeah I played my guitar I was Finally free
Chorus-Bridge So keep your head clear don't Believe what you hear Just play what comes from your Soul But if money & fame is your Fuckin' game Then I hope you die fat & old
Trouble always follows me But trouble ain't a bad place to be I'll get my shit by it, if I can But I stand on my own, and I'm My own man
The only age I know is the Dark age All the people I know put me in a Cage The only age I know is the Dark age The only light I know is in this dark Space I'm the portrait of your patroniza- Tion Have you ever looked at my face?
They try to make a mess out of me They're heading for a social cata- Strophe
They try to make a mess out of me Alienation, false masturbation, Incrimination My soul salvation, discrimination, Isolation No consolation here
Always follow me Always follow me Always follow me Always follow me Always follow me Always follow me Always follow me
Do you remember walkin' hand in Hand Did you understand, well, I did We used to listened to that song "Are you lonely tonight?" I think the king sang it
I'm lonely tonite Yeah lonely tonight That's right
I used to read you bedtime stories
I'm so lonely tonite I'm so lonely, so lonely tonite
Remember you used to protect me From my fright Now I stand here with a bottle in My hand Who cares? What's different?
When I look into your eyes. I can see a love restrained. But darlin when I hold you, don't you know I feel the same. Cause nothin lasts forever, and we both know hearts can change. And it's hard to hold a candle, in the cold November rain. We've been through this such a long long time, just tryin to kill the pain. But lovers always come and lovers always go An no one's reallly sure who's lettin go today. Walking away. If we could take the time to lay it on the line. I could rest my head, just knowin that you were mine, all mine. So if you want to love me, then darlin don't refrain. Or I'll just end up walkin, in the cold November rain. Do you need some time on your own. Do you need some time all alone. Everybody needs some time on their own. Don't you know you need some time all alone. I know it's hard to keep an open heart. When even friends seem out to harm you. But if you could heal a broken heart. Wouldn't time be out to charm you. Sometime I need some time on my own. Sometime I need some time all alone. Everybody needs some time on their own. Don't you know you need some time all alone. And when your fears subside, and shadows still remain. I know that you can love me, when there's no one left to blame. So never mind the darkness, we still can find a way. Cause nothin lasts forever, even cold November rain. Don't ya think that you need somebody. Don't ya think that you need someone. Everybody needs somebody. You're not the only one.
Talk to me softly There's something in your eyes Don't hang your head in sorrow And please don't cry I know how you feel inside I've I've been there before Somethin's changin' inside you And don't you know
Don't you cry tonight I still love you baby Don't you cry tonight Don't you cry tonight There's a heaven above you baby And don't you cry tonight
Give me a whisper and give me a sigh Give me a kiss before you tell me goodbye Don't you take it so hard now And please don't take it so bad I'll still be thinking of you And the times we had..baby
And please remember that I never lied And please remember How I felt inside now honey You gotta make it your own way But you'll be alright now sugar You'll feel better tomorrow Come the morning light now baby
And don't you cry tonight An don't you cry tonight An don't you cry tonight There's a heaven above you baby And don't you cry Don't you ever cry Don't you cry tonight Baby maybe someday Don't you cry Don't you ever cry Don't you cry Tonight
He lost his mind today He left it out back on the highway On "65"
*She loved him yesterday Yesterday's over I said okay That's all right Time moves on That's the way We live an hope to see the next day That's all right
Sometimes these things they are so easy Sometimes these things they are so cold Sometimes these things just seem to rip you right in two Oh no man don't let 'em get ta you
* Repeat
Sometimes these women are so easy Sometimes these women are so cold Sometimes these women seem to rip you right in two Only if you let 'em get to you
Ya get out on your own And you/take all that you own And you/forget about your home And then you're/just fuckin' gone
There's no logic here today Do as you got to, go your own way I said that's right Time's short your life's your own And in the end We are just Dust N' Bones
