I'm looking through you, where did you go I thought I knew you, what did I know You don't look different, but you have changed I'm looking through you, you're not the same
Your lips are moving, I cannot hear Your voice is soothing, but the words aren't clear You don't sound differnt, I've learned the game. I'm looking through you, you're not the same
Why, tell me why, did you not treat me Light? Love has a nasty habit of disappearing overnight
You're thinking of me, the same old way You were above me, but not today The only difference is you're down there I'm looking through you, any other way
I started a joke. Which started the whole world crying. But I didn't see that the joke was on me. Oh, no, I started to cry. Which started the whole world laughing. Oh, if I'd only seen that the joke was on me.
I looked at the skies. Running my hands over my eyes. And I fell out of bed. Hurting my heads from things that I said.
Till I finally died. Which started the whole world living. Oh, if I'd only seen that the joke was on me.
I looked at the skies. Running my hands over my eyes. And I fell out of bed. Hurting my head from things that I said.
Till I finally died. Which started the whole world living. Oh, if I'd only seen that the joke was on me.
Oh, no, that the joke was on me. Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
I, I wish you could swim Like the dolphins, like dolphins can swim Though nothing, nothing will keep us together We can beat them forever and ever We can be heroes, just for one day
Oh I, I will be king And you, you will be queen Though nothing, nothing will drive them away We can be heroes, just for one day We can be, yes, it's just for one day
I, I remember Standing by the wall The guns, they shot above our heads And we kissed, as though nothing could fall And the shame was on the other side Oh, we can beat them, forever and ever Then we could be heroes, just for one day
We can be heroes We can be heroes We can be heroes We can be heroes, just for one day
Slow down, You're breaking up Use your words, Don't yell so much I don't understand a word they you're saying
Now move in, Come up close You look like, You've maybe seen a ghost Tell me Has something gotten to you baby
Now open up your arms Pick up your head Open your eyes So you can see What happens next
*You won't believe Just how good it can get We'll make a lover
Out of you yet The fog is so thick, I can't see my hands It got much worse Soon as I got in And I know you're somewhere Here in the water
It's ten feet deep And the river won't stop I'll tell you what's in it When I make it across You could make it too If you let someone help you
But you gotta give in And you gotta let go Then you can begin To come up slow Like a desert rose
* Repeat
Take a deep breath, And hold it in tight And put your face up Right into the light Can't you feel that full moon Shining down on you Help is coming From the great unknown Just maybe not When you needed it the most Cause I can see you already Know that you're leaving
But I wish you'd stay And just let me in Cause everything can change But you gotta be ready Cause you won't know when
How soft a whisper can get When your're walking through a Crowded space I hear every word being said And I remember that everyday I get a little bit closer to you
How long an hour can take When you're staring into open space When I feel I'm slipping further away I remember that everyday I get a little bit closer to you
These are the days That I won't get back I won't her you cry Or hear you laugh And when it's quiet And i don't hear a thing I can always her you breathe
You know there's nowhere else I've wanted to be Than be there when you needed me I'm sorry too But don't give up on me And just remember that when you Were asleep I got a little bit closer to you
My mind is open And my heart is full I ain't got any weight That I can't pull And right now I know that anything Is possible I'm gonna hang my drum Blow my horn I forget what these pills I believe I won't need them anymore I used to burn candles At both ends Now I just throw the whole damn thing Right in Now playing in traffic is easy Once you learn Where you get in You wanna come with me Then get on board Get in or get out Use either door The future is calling And it's me That it's looking for
*Cause it feels like summer again I was thinking that it just might never begin After winter and spring It's good to have the sun on my face again
I wear big boots I know I do I ain't envious Of anybodies shoes I wear 'em loose Now maybe that's Why it bothers you I'm building my ship Stick by stick And where the waters get rough I'm getting in The motion of the waves It does not Make me sick
* Repeat
I buried my horse In a shallow grave I said a few things I had champagne That beast gave me everything That nobody gave I got high hopes Tomorrow come I won't look back On anything I just found out That my bird Can really sing...
If you could see yourself the way that I do You might change a thing or two You wouldn't look so angry You'd know it doesnt look good on you So grab your coat And grab your hat There ain't no stayin if we're comin back
Cause something's gone So terribly wrong Here in pleasantville
Do you remember how we'd stay out so late We use to have so much fun We use to wish that the mornin' sun just would never come Look at us now We're tucked in tight We're just praying for a little light
Cause something's gone So terribly wrong Here in pleasantville
I need to tell you now as we leave That it's much worse than you would believe And no matter how far you've been The beginning, that's where you are So I'm using my last match I'll put a fire up on every hill And burn down Pleasantville
We never did learn to use our voices We never thought we'd be heard The only way they'd ever listen If we scream every word Beause there ain't nothing in our walk That just aint the kind of luck that we got So let's move on
Cause something's gone So terribly wrong Here in pleasantville
Now on your mark Get set, let's go You got to move now before she explodes Look out the window and out below Back away from the glass There she blows The city's been levelled The hills are in flame The streets cracked up And when we're pushing up clay The temperatures dropped The sky is gray And it ain't even over Comes driving rain Maybe you feel There's something moving around in here That's blood, That's tears This ain't the warning Everybody out of the water And up on dry land Take what you can Cause you won't be here again Eveybody out of the water Now I'm treading high water to get back to you Looking for a low spot or something to cling to There's too many bodies there's not enough room God help me and God help you They say nobody panic, help is on its way We're already on it, you got to be brave If you can fix it now then don't make us wait Man they ain't nobody coming back away from the case That bell you hear, That's hell ringing in your ears I fear, my dear, this ain't a warning Everybody out of the water And up on dry land Take what you can Cause you won't be here again I loved you then Like I loved you now That don't matter anyhow This is the new frontier Everybody out of the water Now I 'm looking up and the shit keeps coming Like shooting ducks in a barrel of honey You've got to learn how to pray But it won't be enough Admit it now, your information sucks Sideslip, down in, I think of a someplace high up a mountain Smoke clears the fog lifts Little by little we rebuilt again But till then, Everybody out of the water And up on dry land Take what you can Cause you won't be here again I loved you then Like I loved you now That don't matter anyhow This is the new frontier Everybody out of the water
On your mark get set let's go You got to move now before she explodes Look out the window Look out below Back away from the glass There she blows The city's been leveled Hills are in flames Streets cracked open and they're pushin' up clay Temperature's dropped Sky is grey And it ain't even over Here comes drivin' rain
It ain't me, that you feel There's something moving Around in here That's blood That's tears This ain't a warning...
(chorus) Everybody out of the water And up on dry land Take what you can 'Cause you won't be here again Everybody out of the water
Now I'm treadin' high water to get back to you Been looking for a low spot or something to cling to There's too many bodies There's not enough room God help me and God help you They say nobody panic Help is on its way We're already on it, you've got to be brave If you can fix it now then don't make us wait Man there ain't nobody coming Back away from the gates
That bell that you hear That's hell Ringing in your ears I fear That my dear This ain't a warning...
Everybody out of the water And up on dry land Take what you can 'Cause you won't be here again I loved you then Like I love you now That won't matter any how This is the new frontier Everybody out of the water ..
Now I'm looking up and the shit keeps coming Like shooting ducks in a barrel of honey Got to learn how to pray love won't be enough Admit it now Your information sucks As I slip down in I think of us someplace High on a mountain Smoke clears Fog lifts Little by little We rebuild again 'Til then...
Everybody out of the water And up on dry land Take what you can 'Cause you won't be here again I loved you then Like I love you now That won't matter any how This is the new frontier Everybody out of the water ..
So long ago I don't remember when That's when they say I lost my only friend Well they said she died easy of a broken heart disease As I listened through the cemetery trees
I seen the sun comin up at the funeral at dawn long broken arm of human law Now it always seemed such a waste She always had a pretty face So I wondered how she hung around this place
Hey come on try a little Nothing is forever There's got to be something better than In the middle But me n Cinderella We put it all together We can drive it home With one headlight
She said it's cold It feels like Independence Day And I can't break away from this parade But there's got to be an opening Somewhere here in front of me Through this maze of ugliness and greed I seen the sun up ahead At the county line bridge Sayin all there's good and nothingness is dead We'll run until she's out of breath She ran until there's nothin left She hit the end it's just her window ledge
Hey come on try a little Nothing is forever There's got to be something better than In the middle But me n Cinderella We put it all together We can drive it home With one headlight
Well this place is old It feels just like a beat up truck I turn the engine but the engine doesn't turn Well it smells of cheap wine n cigarettes This place is always such a mess Sometimes I think I'd like to watch it burn I'm so alone and I feel just like somebody else Man I ain't changed but I know I ain't the same But somewhere here in between the city walls of dyin dreams I think of death it must be killin me
Hey Hey Hey come on try a little Nothing is forever There's got to be something better than In the middle But me n Cinderella We put it all together We can drive it home With one headlight
Sirens ring, the shots ring out A stranger cries, screams out loud I had my world strapped against my back I held my hands, never knew how to act And the same black line that was drawn on you Was drawn on me And now it's drawn me in 6th Avenue heartache Below me was a homeless man Singin' songs I knew complete On the steps alone, his guitar in hand His fifty years, he stood where he stands And the same black line that was drawn on you Was drawn on me And now it's drawn me in 6th Avenue heartache And the same black line that was drawn on you Was drawn on me And now it's drawn me in 6th Avenue heartache Now walkin' home on those streets The river winds move my feet The subway steam, like silhouettes in dreams They stood by me, just like moonbeams And the same black line that was drawn on you Was drawn on me And now it's drawn me in 6th Avenue heartache And the same black line that was drawn on you Was drawn on me And now it's drawn me in 6th Avenue heartache Looked out the window, down upon that street And gone like a midnight was that man But I seen his six strings laid against that wall And all his things, they all look so small I got my fingers crossed on a shooting star Just like me- he just moved on And the same black line that was drawn on you Was drawn on me And now it's drawn me in 6th Avenue heartache And the same black line that was drawn on you Was drawn on me And now it's drawn me in 6th Avenue heartache And the same black line that was drawn on you Was drawn on me And now it's drawn me in 6th Avenue heartache
Once upon a time They called me the bleeder Well swimmin' up this river With sentimental fever But this ain't my first ride It ain't my last try Just got to keep a-movin' on If they catch me ever They'll throw me back forever I guess I should be ashamed But I forget to be vain Well I did the best I could I guess But everything just bleeds They say you're only sad and lonely And no one is impressed
I sent it off in a letter I need somethin' better Than a nail and a hammer To put me back together But this ain't my first ride It ain't my last try Just got to keep a-movin on Got to keep this together Maybe next time is never I guess I should be ashamed But I forget to be vain Well I did the best I could I guess But everything just bleeds They say you're only sad and lonely And no one is impressed
Sometimes I must confess I do feel a little over dressed Sometimes it's hard to tell the wishing from the well Where you threw the penny and where it fell I guess I should I should be ashamed But I forget to be vain Well I did the best I could I guess But everything just bleeds I guess I should be ashamed But I forget to be vain Well I did the best I could I guess But everything just bleeds They say you're only sad and lonely And no one is impressed
Alone tonight in somebody's bed She gone and dyed her hair red She only went and did what she did 'Cause he would drive her home then There's lipstick on her new dress She hadn't even paid yet But it doesn't matter where the money went It wasn't how she paid her rent
One, two, three Marlenas There's got to be someone we can trust Out here among us
Now lookin' out across the city lights She thought they'd be a good pair Now he could make a living sellin' cars Maybe she could work there She's gonna pick a star in the night And pray to make it all right She tried so hard not to pick a kite She always prayed to heaven lights
One, two, three Marlenas There's got to be someone we can trust Out here among us One, two, three Marlenas It's see no, speak no, hear no evil about us The three Marlenas
Man, I think I'm gonna buy myself a Rolls Maybe a Chevrolet One where I can pull that top down Just let my radio play Now I'm headin' out on that highway I'm goin' right out of state Now I ain't lookin' back until I'm gone Right through heaven's gates
One, two, three Marlenas There's got to be someone we can trust Out here among us One, two, three Marlenas Ya see no, speak no, hear no evil among us The three Marlenas Three Marlenas Three Marlenas
One, two boys by the river Down by the water Tellin' riddles in the dark With fireflies under the moonlight Carvin' the insides of a tree with a knife Ever hear the one about the boy's big sister His best friend come along He tried to kiss her
(CHORUS): The only difference That I see Is you are exactly the same As you used to be One boy lives in a tower With bow and arrow And the artificial heart With his girl Late in the summer He loaded the cannon With a jealous appetite They say that children now They come in all ages And maybe sometimes old men die With little boy faces
(CHORUS)
You always said that you needed some But you always had more, more than anyone
I feel pretty good, I feel all right And I've been thinkin' maybe, I could spend the night I know you've been sad, I know I've been bad But if you'd let me make you ribbons from a paper bag
Josephine, you're so good to me And I know it ain't easy Josephine, you're so sweet You must taste just like sugar and tangerines
I won't make a sound Sleep on the ground When you wake I will Drive you into town I missed your smile Your schoolgirl style But I never had much fun Maybe the very first mile
Josephine, you're so good to me And I know it ain't easy Josephine, you're so sweet You must taste just like sugar and tangerines
Don't you know I watched you walkin' home from school Your friends on the old playgrounds You never looked so down Won't you come and help me with these cuts of mine? I've disconnected my heart and cut myself on the wires Josephine
I know I was wrong, I knew all along But I got so far from my home I never thought I'd be so lonesome
Josephine, you're so good to me And I know it ain't easy Josephine, you're so sweet You must taste just like sugar and tangerines
She knows just what I like The angel on my bike She found me down on a two ton anchor Tangled up in wire She always gets it right The angel on my bike I could be killed if the train goes faster Well angel watch my life
I can't handle a care I want, but I can't be there While angel's a prayer
It's 45 miles on that highway Angel double prayer I have to sleep with my eyes on the white lines Elvis need of repair I only want to believe That angel it's me that you need And there's only, only one heart on that highway Angel double prayer
I can't handle a care I want, but I can't be there While angel's a prayer I can't handle a care I want, but I can't be there While angel's a prayer
Now it's hard time on these wheels These fairytales Turn to rusted steel and it's Gettin' hard now to believe She's seein' me Angel, please, tell me Can't you see Angel it's only me Angel it's only me
Well I can't take a care Man, I want, but I can't be there While angel's a prayer I can't handle a care Well, I want, but I can't be there While angel's a prayer
