1.
time is a valuable thing
Watch it fly by as the pendulum swings
Watch it count down to the end of the day
The clock ticks life away
It’s so unreal
2.
So sacrifice yourself, and let me have what's left.
I know that I can find the fire in your eyes.
I'm going all the way, get away, please.
3.
when you hide, hide inside that body
but just remember that when I touch you
the more you shake, the more you give away
4.
Take a look at eye full towers
Never trust them dirty liars
Sippin' lemon yellow booze 'ole' leadbelly sings the blues
5.
Who wants to break the news about Uncle Joe
You remember Uncle Joe
He was the one afraid to cut the cake
6.
I went down Virginia, Seekin' shelter from the storm.
Caught up in the fable, I watched the tower grow.
Five year plans and new deals, Wrapped in golden chains.
7.
Feelin' uninspired
Think I'll start a fire
Everybody run
Bobby's got a gun
8.
I've become so tired, so much more aware
I'm becoming this, all I want to do
Is be more like me and be less like you
9.
I found the note down in your car
And its not your fault it gets this hard
10.
There's a rich man sleeping on a golden bed
There's a skeleton choking on a crust of bread
11.
time seems to have frozen,
but the mind can be fooled
as the days pass i discover
destiny just can't be ruled
12.
And though my lack of education
Hasn't hurt me none
I can read the writing on the wall
13.
Taught by the powers that preach over me
I can hear their empty reason
I wouldn't listen I learned how to fight
I opened up my mind to treason
14.
Me I like sleeping, especially in my Molly's chamber
But here I am in prison, here I am with a ball and chain
15.
Put to rest
What you thought of me
While I clean this slate
With the hands of uncertainty
16.
Don't the best of them bleed it out
While the rest of them peter out
Truth or consequence, say it aloud
Use that evidence, race it around
17.
leavin' on a southern train
only yesterday you lied,
promises of what I seemed to be
only watched the time go by
18.
I work my back till it's racked with pain
The boss can't even recall my name
I show up late and I'm docked
It never fails
19.
against my will I stand beside my own reflection
it's haunting.. how I can't seem...
to find myself again
my walls are closing in
20.
to much walkin', shoes worn thin
too much trippin' and my soul's worn thin
21.
I.. I’m a new day rising
I’m a brand new sky that hangs stars upon tonight
I.. I’m a little divided
Do I stay or run away and leave it all behind
22.
You’re asking me will my love grow,
I don’t know, I don’t know.
You stick around now it may show,
I don’t know, I don’t know.
23.
My heart is like an open book
For the whole world to read
Sometimes nothing keeps me together at the seams
24.
You can spend all your time makin' money
And spend all your love makin' time.
If it all fell to pieces tomorrow, would you still be mine?
25.
They're closing down the textile mill, across the railroad tracks
Foreman says these jobs are going boys, and they ain't coming back
26.
moderation is masterbation
what is what, and what makes you feel good
27.
And if it's not the defense then you're on the attack
When you start talking
I hear the Prozac
Convinced you've found your place
With the pierced queer teens in Cyberspace
28.
You said I love you babe, without a sound
I said I'd give my life for just one kiss
I'd live for your smile and die for your kiss
29.
As you leave me please would you close the door
and forget what I told you
Just 'cause you're right - that don't mean I'm wrong
Another shoulder to cry upon
30.
There's a fine line between love and hate
And I don't mind
Just let me say that I like that
I like that
31.
Everybody's talking and no one says a word
Everybody's making love and no one really cares
There's Nazis in the bathroom just below the stairs
32.
Excuse me while I tend to how
I feel
These things return to me that still seem real
Now, deservingly, this easy chair
But the rocking stopped by wheels of despair
33.
Lookin' back to find my way, never seemed so hard
Yesterday's belated rest, changing of the guards
I would never change a thing, even if I could
All the songs we used to sing, everything was good
34.
When you were here before,
Couldn't look you in the eye,
You're just like an angel
Your skin makes me cry,
You float like a feather,
In a beautiful world.
35.
Someone told me long ago There's a calm before the storm,
I know; It's been comin' for some time.
When it's over, so they say, It'll rain a sunny day,
36.
Have you come here for forgiveness
Have you come to raise the dead
Have you come here to play Jesus
To the lepers in your head
37.
times they're a-changin' nothing ever stands still
if I don't stop changin' I'll be writin' my will
it's the same old story never get a second chance
for a dance to the top of the hill
38.
When I wake up in my makeup
Have you ever felt so used up as this?
It's all so sugarless
Hooker/waitress/model/actress
Oh, just go nameless
39.
Father McKenzie, writing the words of a sermon that no-one will hear,
No-one comes near
Look at him working, darning his socks in the night when there's nobody there,
What does he care?
40.
Like a river flows surely to the sea
Darling so it goes
some things are meant to be
take my hand, take my whole life too
41.
My favorite inside source
I'll kiss your open sores
Appreciate your concern
You'll always stink and burn
42.
Ah, people asking questions, lost in confusion
Well, I tell them there's no problem, only solutions
Well, they shake their heads and look at me
As if I lost my mind
43.
And we'd steal away every chance we could
To the backroom, to the alley or the trusty woods
44.
My therapist said not to see you no more
She said you're like a disease without any cure
She said I'm so obsessed that I'm becoming a bore, oh no
45.
Jamie had a chance, well she really did
Instead she dropped out and had a couple of kids
46.
I don't mind other guys dancing with my girl
That's fine, I know them all pretty well
But I know sometimes I must get out in the light
Better leave her behind with the kids,
47.
A million young poets
Screamin´ out their words
Maybe someday
Those words will be heard
By future generations
Ridin´ on the highways that we built
48.
She struts into the room,
well I don't know her
but with a magnifying glance,
I just sort of looked her over, hmm
49.
they said your mom, she's a whore
they said it 'til you were raw
they said your mom, she's a bore
they made her beg them for more
50.
Seems like everything we knew
Turned out were never even true
Don't trust, things will never change
You must be dreaming
