Well I've been looking
Looking for an answer Somebody promised me one And I've been waiting Waiting for the chance Well somebody said it would come Wake me up when we hit 2001 I've been talking Talking to the maker Of the compromise They said she's fine Call the undertaker You shouldn't look surprised Wake me up when we hit 2001 It's barely alive with a story at five So turn your video on We live in these years dark age of fear Meet me in 2001 I saw my sister Saw the ones who twist her A social suicide If looks could kill Each and every cheap thrill Could be a homicide Wake me up when we hit 2001 It's barely alive with a story at five So turn your video on We live in these years dark age of fear Meet me in 2001 I've searching Searching for a reason To either fight or fly Either way patriot or treason It's gonna be one long hard ride Wake me up when we hit 2001 |

It's a simple love
That holds us together It's a simple truth That sets us free There's a place we're bound And they call it forever It's a simple love Between you and me (Ay, ay, yeah) (Ay, ay, yeah) (Ay, ay, yeah, yeah) (Ay, ay, yeah) |

Sometimes I know that it's never enough Survival is fine but satisfaction is rough I try with an angel tonight Spread these wings and I'm on for the ride Cruise these streets where my innocence hides There's some things you can't deny What is it about this human condition I need some kind of promise some kind of submission tonight CHORUS: Heavy Ain't it heavy Ain't the night heavy I'm feelin' kinda loose I'm feelin' kinda mean I've been feeling kinda wild since I turned seventeen Or is it madness Tell me where can a woman find any kind of peace When does the fury and the agony cease How long have I got to say please There's a hole in my jeans I only wanted to fade I've been ripping out the seams somebody else made tonight (CHORUS |

She wakes up in the morning
With a pain in her jet black head A decaf coffee in her hand And a Marlboro red She drives down to the office In her Japanese car With the radio blasting She dreams of taking it too far But today she'll pay the bills She won't think about the thrills That pass away She's an all American girl An all American girl And she will live and die in this man's world An all American girl Her eyes are black as leather And her hair is killer red How could she keep the baby When she can barely keep her head She don't owe nobody nothing And she ain't on the street But these drinks are getting heavy And these lips are getting weak She don't understand Why she can't climb out of the sand And break away She's an all American girl An all American girl And she will live and die in this man's world An all American girl Her lover never came home And it's half past three Today her best friend told her He's HIV Something's gotta give somewhere Forcing circles into squares She keeps pushing on She's an all American girl An all American girl And she will live and die in this man's world An all American girl |

First time I saw you
Back in 1982 An LA bar I've come so far In my Kansas dancing shoes I'm just a singer And I'm looking for a song Do you want to sing along? Two greyhounds later And I'm feeling alright I've got to have you And it must be tonight Come on back to my place Well, it's really just a room But I'll be making some money soon Goodbye and thank you Oh, my number, yeah- please phone Two or three weekends On the 405 alone You say come on and stay And when you sing down at the bar It will not be so far <i>[Chorus:]</i> And I tried to do my best I never meant to hurt no-one I was waiting for my break That I knew one day would come And I'd plug in my guitar And I'd look out across the room And I'd dig into my heart And I'd try to sing the truth And I know I did my best I never meant to hurt no-one As I recall Back in 1982 I never said goodbye or why I just left a note for you Then one night I saw you Across the road, Across the dark A shameful spear into my heart Your look was haunting An unexpected pain I am so sorry For the unexpected rain The sadness that you kissed The fresh scars on your wrist I can't make it go away <i>[Chorus]</i> Good night ladies Good night I'm gonna leave you now, Good night ladies Good night I'm gonna leave you now. (Sleep tight) |

The rope that's wrapped around meIs cutting through my skin And the doubts that have surrounded me Are finding their way in I keep it close to me Like a holy man prays In my desperate hour It's better that way So I'll come by and see you again I'll be such a very good friend Have mercy on my soulI will never let you know Where my mind has been Angels never came down There's no one here they want to hang around But if they knew If they knew you at all Then one by one the angels Angels would fall I've crept into your temple I have slept upon your pew I've dreamed of the divinity Inside and out of you I want it more than truth I can taste it on my breath I would give my life just for a little death So I'll come by and see you again I'll be just a very good friend I will not look upon your face I will not touch upon your grace Your ecclesiastic skin I'll come by and see you again I'll have to be a very good friend If I whisper they will know I'll just turn around and go You will never know my sin |

If you ask me I will say I'm fine
All pink like birthday girls and valentines And then the stillness of the night reminds That I don't like to be alone My thoughts are race cars running 'round my head They burst into flames and they crash into my bed Until I fall into a dream instead Where all my lovers turn to stone And all I want is company Someone to understand this misery Send a reflection of myself to me 'Cause everybody needs some company These times I'm living in just make no sense Sometimes my face gets pushed against the fence I want to scream out in my self-defense But I don't want to be alone And all I want is company Someone to understand this misery Send a reflection of myself to me 'Cause everybody needs some company What is truth and what is fear Will I find it under here I know they're selling me a lie But I'm first in line to buy First in line to try I find some sanity on the written page Where life is worth more than a living wage They say the battle's over now it's time to change And I won't ever be alone And all I want is company Someone to understand this misery Send a reflection of myself to me 'Cause everybody needs some company I need some company Company |

I don't want to talk about it
I've done enough, I think I don't want to spend more money I don't want another drink I would scratch out all the images If I had the chance Don't ask me what I'm thinking Can't you see? I only want to Dance without sleeping I'll dance without fear Dance without senses No message I hear I'll dance without sleeping Dance till I'm numb Dance till I think I can overcome Walking on the edge of Rage and understanding Between the black and the white This child is so angry Alone here tonight Alarming desperation leads me to believe With all my shields and protection It's only me I deceive Dance without sleeping I'll Dance without fear Dance without senses No message I hear Dance without sleeping I'll dance till I'm numb Dance till I think I can overcome The eyes on a magazine The voice on the radio The kiss on the movie screen This is the story I know Fathers hold on and they never go Mothers hold on and they never go Lovers hold on and they never go Lovers, they come and they never go Dance without sleeping I'll dance without fear Dance without senses No message I hear Dance without sleeping I'll dance till I'm numb Dance till I think I can overcome Dance without sleeping I'll dance without fear Dance without senses No message I hear Dance without sleeping I'll dance till I'm numb Dance till I think I can overcome |

I had a dream late last night
The water was running low And my fields were on fire, burning my sky My body was moving slow And when I awoke I tasted the sweat of desire in my mouth And I realized my heart had abducted my mind And they were last seen headed south Now I cant sleep Im so wired And I find myself screaming out Dont you need dont you want Cant you taste it when youre alone Dont you cry dont you feel Sometimes I wonder if you are real Dont you bleed Dont you need Theres no quenching the thirst theres no relief For the hungry at heart And as far as youre concerned Im just a thief Entertaining in the dark But its you that holds the cards Now that the joker is wild Dont you want to lay it down And feel your skin against the ground Dont you want to ride the storm And then sleep inside the calm Dont you want to get that high Dont you want to be satisfied Well if you dont want it from me Dont you need I had a dream late last night The water was running low And my fields were on fire burning my sky How was I to know That I burn every night in my dreams And only morning can set me free Dont you need dont you want Cant you taste it when youre alone Dont you cry dont you feel Sometimes I wonder if you are real Dont you bleed Dont you need |

What went right
What went wrong Doesn't really matter much When it's gone Was it too hard to try Was it too hard to lie Did you just grow tired of hello and goodbye Was it the naked truth that made you run Where do I go now That I'm down to one Sooner or later We all end up walking alone I'm down to one My heart is a traitor It led me down this road Now it's done I'm down to one I want to know where I failed I want to know where I sinned Cause I don't want to ever feel this way again Was the wanting too deep Did it block your sun Where do I go now That I'm down to one I guess sooner or later We all end up walking alone I'm down to one My heart is a traitor It led me down this road Now it's done I'm down to one What am I supposed to think What am I gonna say What did I ever know About this love anyway Down to one My heart is a traitor It led me down this road And I'm down to one I guess sooner or later We all end up walking alone I'm down to one My heart is a traitor And now it's done Down to one One창?짝 One창?짝 I'm down to one창?짝 |

Did you think I was leaving
My ticket was just one way The angels I believed in Were gonna carry me away Did you think that I would simply Give them my last breath Well honey you've got me wrong I'd never leave you for death It's gonna take more than that to get rid of me It's gonna take more than that to make me fade They'll have to tie me up and drag me away They'll have to shut my mouth and drag me away There is no one I serve I am not here to please I will not be a hostage To my own dis-ease Oh Come on come on Come on out and hold me Out into the great sunlight No power on earth can stop us We'll both become one tonight I have never been more sure of anything I have never been more sure of what I am They'll have to tie me up and drag me away They'll have to shut my mouth and drag me away There's no dark that can overcome a flame There's no force that can drag me away They could bring an army Ten thousand men or more Their mass weapons of destruction Won't even up the score Come on, come on, come on, come on, come on baby They'll have to drag me away Come on, come on, come on baby They'll have to drag me away They'll have to drag me away They'll have to drag me away They'll have to tie me up and drag me away They'll have to shut my mouth and drag me away There's no dark that can overcome a flame There's no force that can drag me away No force that can overcome a flame There's no force that can drag me away |

When I woke up I was seventeen, you kissed my lips in a bad bad dream. Showed me things, or what they appear to be, called me angel set me free. Gave me life in the cold cold dark, but you ran away in the morning spark, made me think that reality... Oh is not where I wanna be. But I am what I am and I am what I am afraid of ..... Oh what am I afraid of? Chorus I need a fearless, Dont need to fear the end. Oh if you cant hold me now, you will never hold me again. I want to live my life Pursue it all, My happiness I want a fearless love I wont settle for anything less. I've walked a path had worlds collide Lost my way and I fooled my pride As long as they couldn't feel so strange if I could only change But I am what I am I am what I am afraid of .... so what am I afraid of,,, Chorus Now I'm not here to lay the blame I understand when you hold a flame That heads will shake heads will turn and sometimes you just get burned. I want a fearless love , mmmmmmm I need a fearless.love Chorus |

When my soul crashed into my body
Falling into consciousness That's when my mind began this illusion Of taking it step after step I looked into mother's eyes I said tell me what I should believe She drew me a room with a light and said Just turn it off when you leave Slow, slow, this river is slow We're all out here on our own Row, row, gently we row One day we'll find our way home Step after step They drew me a town They drew me a fear and a need They drew me a god and They drew me some money Hiding the truth far from me I asked the cool fire light Tell me, what I should believe And they gave me a song And they gave me a dance And said sleep now your pain will relieve Slow, slow, this river is slow And we're all out here on our own Row, row, gently we row And one day we'll find our way home I've stumbled and crawled I've begged to know why And I've been ashamed When I've chosen to lie In all of this darkness I have searched for a light To come and find me And when I found me I wrapped my arms round My own daughter as she fell into her place and time And as her mind creates her illusions I won't complicate hers with mine She looked into her mother's eyes She said tell me what I should believe And I drew her a door And I drew her a key And I said when you're ready you'll come and find me And we'll walk out of here and tomorrow will be a new day Slow, slow, this river is slow And you are never out here on your own Row, row, gently we row Oh And together we'll find our way Slow, slow, this river is slow Life is not what it seems Row, row, gently we row The truth is It's only a dream |

You tried to hold us down
You tried to hold us back You tried to make us wrong You tried to make us crack You wanted to see us cry You wanted to see us leave You didn't count on the tide You didn't count on the pride You didn't count on me I am a giant And you will not make me fall And you will not make me crawl I am a giant And I'm not alone Winds of change have blown And walls come tumbling down And I learned from my mistakes Pick myself up of the floor I have learned just what it takes Now I am stronger than before And we are standing side by side We are determined now to win We come too far And we've got the scares And we are never going back into the shadows again I am a giant And you will not make me fall And you will not make me crawl I am a giant And I'm not alone Winds of change have blown How the walls come tumbling down |

I washed the dishes poured out the old wine
Called a new friend for the second time It's not bad this brand new life It's clean and it's sharp like a brand new knife I pull up the covers and curl up tight Turn down the sound turn off the light Close my eyes and I quietly whisper Goodnight, goodnight (goodnight goodnight) You're not here you're not even there Out of my heart, out of my hair I can't roll away this missing piece You could only ever want what I could never ever be I just pull up the covers and curl up tight Turn down the sound turn off the light Close my eyes and I quietly whisper Goodnight, goodnight (goodnight goodnight) How can I be okay if I'm pulling away All the things that held together my life All I want tonight is to touch you and kiss you But I only wish you Goodnight, goodnight (goodnight) I just pull up the covers and curl up tight Turn down the sound turn off the light Close my eyes and I quietly whisper Goodnight, goodnight (goodnight goodnight) I just pull up the covers and curl up tight Turn down the sound turn off the light Close my eyes and I quietly whisper Goodnight, goodnight (goodnight goodnight) Goodnight (goodnight goodnight) Goodnight (goodnight) Goodnight, goodnight my honey just Just sleep tight sleep tight my baby??짖???짝 |

For a moment there This felt just like dying But now I see that something inside Is coming alive Ain't it crazy No use running from a revolution I just surrender to this evolution Heal me lift me Take me to the other side Amazing grace Has touched my face And the sweet sound doesn't lie Ain't it crazy For a moment there I just gave up trying But now I see You can let the light in You can begin again Ain't it crazy I lay me down in this sweet perfection I am a witness to my resurrection Heal me lift me Take me to the waterside Drop me in let me swim Let everyone know I'll be coming home again Make no mistake I'm wide-awake Ain't it crazy Heal me lift me Take me to the other side I'll take what I've earned These lessons I've learned I'm ready for the ride Heal me lift me Take me and my soul will fly My battered heart will make a new start Let everyone know I'll be coming home again Heal me lift me Take me to the waterside Drop me in Come on and watch me swim Let everyone know I'll be coming home again |

I grew up in silence
From silence I became my history They fed me fear and violence They hooked me up to this reality Now I'm not cursing anyone They only did what they had done to them But if you want to know where I am now Then just breathe in and let it out When you are at the end of your rope Come find me Holding on to your last string of hope Come find me Open up your eyes I'll show you what your worth Don't you know it's you and me In this heaven on earth When I laid down my burden The one where I had something I should prove Then I found my power The one where I'm the mountain I could move So if you want to know where I am now Then just breathe in and let it out When you are at the end of your rope Come find me Holding on to your last string of hope Come find me Open up your eyes I'll show you what your worth Don't you know it's you and me In this heaven on earth Don't you know that you are golden Don't you know that you are pure delight baby It doesn't matter what they painted on you You can wash it all away tonight When you are at the end of your rope Come find me Holding on to your last string of hope Come find me Open up your eyes I'll show you what your worth Don't you know it's you and me In this heaven on earth |

I have sailed across the sea I have wrestled with my demons And woke up with only me I have been around the block Three times maybe four And I think I deserve just a little more In front of total strangers won't you kiss me Flowers for no reason but you miss me Oh I want to be in love You're standing on the doorstep in the rain Cause you couldn't wait to see me once again Oh I want to be in love I have made some big mistakes And I've paid a heavy price I found a little peace between will and sacrifice I have watched as all my dreams Went walking out the door And I think I deserve just a little more I'm looking for a heart of gold I'm looking for a hand to hold A happy end Strong and kind Somewhere to rest my troubled mind In front of total strangers won't you kiss me Flowers for no reason but you miss me Oh I want to be in love On Tuesday light the candles bring me wine Wednesday morning I won't get to work on time Oh I want to be in love Surprise me as I'm stepping off the plane Take my hand as they play our song again Oh I want to be in love |

"I Will Never Be The Same"
So you walked with me for a while Bared your naked soul And you told me of your plan How you would never let them know In the morning of the night You cried a long lost child And I tried on I tried to hold you But you were young And you were wild But I, I will never be the same Oh I, I will never be the same Caught in your eyes Lost in your name I will never be the same Secrets of your life I never wanted for myself But you guarded them like a lie Placed up on the highest shelf In the morning of the night When I woke to find you gone I knew your distant devil Must be draggin' you along But I, I will never be the same Oh I, I will never be the same Caught in your eyes Lost in your name I will never be the same And you swore that you were bound for glory And for wanting you had no shame But I loved you And then I lost you And I will never be the same But I, I will never be the same Oh I, I will never be the same Caught in your eyes Lost in your name I will never be the same |

Please baby can't you see
My mind's a burnin' hell I got razors a rippin' and tearin' and strippin' My heart apart as well Tonight you told me That you ache for something new And some other woman is lookin' like something That might be good for you Go on and hold her till the screaming is gone Go on believe her when she tells you nothing's wrong But I'm the only one Who'll walk across the fire for you I'm the only one Who'll drown in my desire for you It's only fear that makes you run The demons that you're hiding from When all your promises are gone I'm the only one Please baby can't you see I'm trying to explain I've been here before and I'm locking the door And I'm not going back again Her eyes and arms and skin won't make it go away You'll wake up tomorrow and wrestle the sorrow That holds you down today Go on and hold her till the screaming is gone Go on believe her when she tells you nothing's wrong But I'm the only one Who'll walk across the fire for you I'm the only one Who'll drown in my desire for you It's only fear that makes you run The demons that you're hiding from When all your promises are gone I'm the only one |

I think of how you know me,
no doubts no thinking twice. When your smile can be so soothing, a familiar paradise. When there's no one else that makes me whole. I have never needing more I get this feeling I've loved you before We were lovers in an army, marching all for Rome. side by side in battle, did we bravely leave our home? Did I hold you in my arms, as you were taking your last breath? Did shout to all the gods, that I would love you beyond death? I swear I've loved you before. Did we hide in the dark ages, from a vengeful god above? Were our names too unfamiliar, to ever speak of love? Did I cling to every moment with you, in every parting glance? An accidental touch, did we ever take the chance? I know I've loved you before. Have I wandered through the desert? Have I looked and learned all the stars? Have I rode the days and nights on rails, to get back where you are? And every time I foundered, it's your eyes I know for sure. When I think of how you know me, no doubts no thinking twice. When your smile can be so soothing, a familiar paradise. When there's no one else that makes me whole. I never wanting more. I get this feeling. I know I've loved you before. I know I've loved you before I've loved you before |

If I wanted to I could do anything right
I could dance with the devil on a Saturday night If I wanted to I could turn matches to gold I could smoke drink swear and I would never grow old I wouldn't have to be in love with you If I only wanted to If I only wanted to If I wanted to I could run fast as a train Be as sharp as a needle that's twisting your brain If I wanted to I could turn mountains to sand Have political leaders in the palm of my hand I wouldn't have to be in love with you If I only wanted to If I only wanted to I could leave tonight And I would be all right Stop holding on If I wanted to If I only wanted to If I wanted to I could be as patient as death Fix this hole in my heart leaking into my flesh If I wanted to I could turn sparks into ice There'd never be another woman who could make you think twice I wouldn't have to be in love with you If I only wanted to If I only wanted to |

A mother was grieving her loss
Her soldier the ultimate cost She went to the man Who's been told that he's a king Waited outside of his compound To ask him a few things She said "For what noble cause did my son have to die Where are their weapons Why did you have to lie" Imagine that A lieutenant in the army In his heart and his soul he believes In the land of the free and the home of the brave Now he's standing on trial For he will not behave as they wish He said "I believe the constitution To defend it and uphold I will not fight your war for profit No sir I will not go" Imagine that A scientist and his machine The smallest of life he has seen Inside matter inside atoms As far as you can go He saw the strings of life that vibrate With the universal flow He said "I have seen the spirit And all its creation It's in each and every thought And all our intentions" Imagine that |

She came to this world on a cold night
Papa turned his head and said I don't believe she's mine Single momma raised her in a place where You can look but never touch Cause we don't have enough Don't let your hopes get high Cause girls like you can't fly Oh the long nighs in the small room With the big dreams Oh Indiana You're only dying here And they don't understand you It's a tough road but you start slow And before you know it You're not alone Looking for a place called home anywhere Oh Indiana She tended bar in New York City People turned their heads and said Baby you sure look fine They put her on TV and then they told her You're gonna be a star You can go so far Let your hopes get high Cause girls like you can fly In the long nighs in the small room With the big dreams Oh Indiana You're only dying here And they don't understand you It's a tough road but you start slow And before you know it You're not alone Looking for a place called home anywhere Oh Indiana Those big dreams are flying machines And they'll take you Wherever you want to go Sometimes you find that what's real is inside You don't have to go away To find your way home Oh Indiana She turned around and sshe topped running She saw that fame was never an answer to her prayers She found that answer in her children When she takes them to a place Where they can have so much She lets their hopes get high Cause anyone, anyone can fly In the long nighs in the small room With the big dreams Oh Indiana You're only dying here And they don't understand you It's a tough road but you start slow And before you know it You're not alone Looking for a place called home anywhere Oh Indiana Oh she's going back Oh oh oh |

There were stairs they were steep I was falling falling deep You were there you were small There was screaming down the hall I've been here sleeping all these years There comes a time we all know There's a place that we must go Into the soul into the heart Into the dark There was fire there was death There was lying on your breath I turned away I would pretend But the burning never ends I've been here sleeping all these years There was a wave over the house There was fear choked in my mouth You were there you left your mark As I stumbled in the dark |

What if we could create peace on earth?
I wonder what that would look like I wonder if nature and heaven would sing Hellelujah What if we all stopped believing the line That happines comes from a stork? What if we looked at the damage we've done And finally shouted no more? Fa, la, la, la, la It's Christmas time Fa, la, la, la, la It's Christmas time What if we did create peace on Earth? How would we feel 'bout ourselves? If we know we were perfect and good and enough For all we desire is well What if we all spreaded the news There's nothing to fear anymore? We are connected, one family of light Hallelujah Fa, la, la, la, la It's Christmas time Fa, la, la, la, la It's Christmas time Oh, yeah It's Christmas time I think we can create peace on Earth I finally decide I might By healing our pain, intending our love In the world we create what we find What if we all took the time to be still?

You brought me to trust you brought me to tears
In one tender touch the pain disappears I have been to the sword seen it come seen it die As we enter the dark I beseech you to try In prophecy all good things must end So take care my love my friend Keep it precious Keep it precious This yielding is fine this promise rare One day at a time we've agreed to dare Holding you tight with wide open arms I'm letting you go no stranger to harm Go on ride your way do not break or bend Just take care my love my friend Keep it precious Keep it precious And the wonder let the wonder never cease And the madness of the pleasure and ecstasy Danger believing me Wounding and healing me please Keep it precious I believe in your eyes I believe in your fate I believe we can fly on the wings we create A voice from behind calls up anger and fear We can silence that scream it's simple and clear Nothing must die only if failed to mend So take care my love my friend Keep it precious |

'Tis the season of change
The seasons are the contrast Heed a life and how it's done It's time to let go of all our past And let go of what's to come Write down your excuses And turn them into dust And plant the seeds of change Water it with trust And light a light tonight We light a light We light a light tonight We light a light Now about this time is ending And everyone is here We light a light A light this year 'Tis the season of change What do we have, what do we have not? What do we need that isn't here? This mindless, numb, consuming Is driven by a subtle fear It's time we stopped believing That there will not be enough I know they said it on the TV So turn it off, break the chains Step outside and feel the love And light a light tonight We light a light We light a light tonight We light a light Now about this time is ending And everyone is here We light a light A light this year 'Tis the season of change Ooh, change, we shall change We must change Heaven is inside It's all around, not just above Choose only love Heaven is inside It's all around, not just above Choose only love Choose only love Choose only love Choose only love Choose only love And light a light tonight We light a light We light a light tonight We light a light We light a light Light a light tonight We light a light We light a light tonight We light a light 'Tis the season of change |

They keep on telling me It's just another high They keep on selling me I was only five They fed me so much jive They said just have a ball Just be a Barbie doll They churned and burned me out Until they turned me out Over and over again Mama I'm strange The thoughts and the wants are the locks On the back of my brain I'm descending pretending I'm blending I'm going insane And they want me to change Mama I'm strange I'm on a shaky wall I'm tripping down the hall And all the king's men can't Can't sew me up again I've got a leaky head Don't know the full extent I'm drowning in my bed I'm just an accident They chewed and blew me out Until they threw me out Over and over again If I could tranquilize I might just vaporize They couldn't supervise They couldn't criticize I have no evidence I have no reverence It makes no difference I have no innocence Help me mama help me now |

And you were just teen Said that you were pretty Like in the magazine And so you left your home town To try out for the part Of everybody's pretty little angel With a pretty little heart You studied hard The map of the stars All because you wanted Yeah, you really wanted Every night you wanted to be <i>[Chorus:]</i> One of the little angels That flies between the stars One of the little angels With a pretty little car So you eat a little less And you smoke a little more Waiting in the lines For them to open up the doors For all the little angels So you got yourself an agent You made a little deal They got you on the TV Everyone agreed you had the charm and the appeal So you bought yourself a house in the Hollywood Hills You bought yourself a tan You fixed your nose and hair Learned how not to care Got a pretty little man You landed hard On the map of the stars Now everybody wants you Oh, they really want you Every night they want you to be <i>[Chorus]</i> So you eat a little less And you drink a little more Waiting in your room For them to open up the door For all the little angels Now you drink a little more Your family's talking to the press And the movie didn't score So you eat a little less Just a little bit less Well the people on the street now They're getting kind of mean They read about your break up In the magazine And somewhere in your hometown A girl tries out her best Maybe she'll go far She wants to be a star So she eats a little less All the little angels All the little angels |

Meet me in the back
Don't make me wait too long I could change my mind And tell you that it's wrong So meet me in the back Where the light don't shine First show me yours Maybe I'll show you mine My hands are shaking My heart is beating fast Is love worth making When it can never last Meet me in the back Don't make me wait too long I could change my mind And tell you that it's wrong So meet me in the back Where the light don't shine First show me yours Maybe I'll show you mine I'm gonna give directions I'm gonna take it slow But if I don't get protection I will just say no Meet me in the back Don't make me wait too long I could change my mind And tell you that it's wrong So meet me in the back Where the light don't shine First show me yours Maybe I'll show you mine I can hear the music Pounding through the walls And to the beat of dancing I will give you all Meet me in the back Don't make me wait too long I could change my mind And tell you that it's wrong So meet me in the back Where the light don't shine First show me yours Maybe I'll show you mine |

from Melissa Etheridge - Lucky (2004)
Keep your eyes down, keep your head lowered
Keep to your self dear, do not tell a soul You know it's wrong what they've been sayin' And you knew all along that I would have to go Find the place where light shines on my reflection A place where I can stand upon my own Not down on my knees Until then please [chorus] Meet me in the dark Meet me in the shadows Past the old graveyard On Eisenhower road Meet me where the storms Blow out on their own dear Meet me in the dark Never let me go I know everyone has their unspoken fear That eats away their senses and their humanity They carry all their secrets every night down to the river And they try so hard to drown them They wont do that to me Cause I'm working hard saving all my money And the tips in this jar will by a brand new set of wings For my mercury Until then please [chorus] I could never hide this little light of mine If God made a mistake then I should die before I wake Maybe it's my fate to swim against this tide Swallowing my pride Keep your eyes down; say that you don't know me For I could not survive if they took you away [chorus] |

Well, I have lived ten years plus ten
And ten and ten again I have seen too much to pretend Then you wanted to come in I have survived all of the lies They made me wise The locks and walls and the peace it buys Still when I look into your eyes It's a surprise when you say: (It's gonna be alright) (It's gonna be okay) (Just hold on tight) (Let it all go away) (It's gonna be alright) Oh, mercy, mercy, baby (It's gonna be okay) (Just hold on tight) What do you want from me (Let it all go away) Well I plead: "Mercy, mercy, baby" I do not know what this all means It's been awhile since I been stylin' In just my jacket and my jeans It hurts to walk it hurts to talk It hurts to think about it Shout about it Could I be sure without a doubt That you could never live without me (It's gonna be alright) Oh, mercy, baby (It's gonna be okay) (Just hold on tight) What do you want from me (Let it all go away) (It's gonna be all right) Oh, mercy, mercy, baby (It's gonna be okay) (Just hold on tight) What do you want from me (Let it all go away) I want to fall in you, crawl in you Surrender all in you now Could I be sure in you, pure in you Finding the cure in you Now I plead: "Have mercy on me" Oh... Now I am kneeling at the alter In the temple of your eyes And I am asking for a miracle I have been too long paralyzed When you say: "Get up and stand up And climb the rope of hope And open up again" Oh, the peace you say is promised me Seems too much to comprehend (It's gonna be alright) Oh, mercy, baby (It's gonna be okay) (Just hold on tight) What can this girl believe (Let it all go away) (It's gonna be alright) Oh... mercy (It's gonna be okay) (Just hold on tight) What do you want from me (Let it all go away) What do you want from me (It's gonna be alright) (It's gonna be okay) Mercy, baby (Just hold on tight) Mercy, baby (Let it all go away) (It's gonna be alright) Mercy, mercy, mercy, baby (It's gonna be okay) (Just hold on tight) Hold on tight Let it all go away (It's gonna be alright) It's gonna be okay (Just to hold on tight) Oh... (Let it all go away) Mercy, baby |

I'm sending out a message to myself
So that when I hear it on the radio I will know that I am fine, I will know that I am loved. I warned myself of the blackness in my chest The razors in my heart would never rest It's funny how you find just what you seek Love is what you get when love is what you speak I'm sending out a message to myself So that when I hear it on the radio I will know that I am fine, I will know that I am loved. I made every choice along the way Each day I spent in hell I chose to stay It's funny what you fear can make you weak Truth is what you get when truth is what you speak I'm sending out a message to myself So that when I hear it on the radio I will know that I am fine, I will know that I am loved. So if you are listening I am just passing through You can take some for yourself 'cause it works that way too Sha la la la la la la la la la Sha la la la la la la la la la I will know that I am fine, I will know that I am loved. I'm sending out a message to myself So that when I hear it on the radio I will know that I am fine, I will know that I am loved. I'm sending out a message to myself So that when I hear it on the radio I will know that I am fine, I will know that I am loved. |
