- I don’t mean to piss
you off with things I might say. But when I try and shut my mouth
they come out anyway. When I speak my mind, that’s when we
connect. But that’s not politically correct.
-
- Our heads are so filled
with thought, we can’t use our imagination. Like a sky so filled
with stars, you can’t find a constellation. And everyone’s so
sensitive to every bad vibration. We’re so impressing while
we’re regressing.
-
- There’s nothing I
believe in more than my own insignificance. So why does everyone
think that my words can make a difference? I just don’t have time
to think up every social consequence. I’ll just keep talking you
keep applauding.
-
- I
don’t mean to piss you off with things I might say. But
when I try to shut my mouth they come out anyway. If you spoke your
mind you might feel more connected. Until you get politically
corrected.
-
- You lean a little to the
left or the right but you can only see what’s on your side. Look a
little like a deer in the headlights.
A little blind and hypnotized. So you conform with the best
of intention. Change comes from inside. After all that’s what this
country was founded on. Do nothing different just fall in line.
-
- What happened to make us
so afraid? You couldn’t make a Mel Brooks movie today. I saw
Blazing Saddles yesterday.
-
- She clings to me like
cellophane. Fake plastic submarine. Slowly driving me insane. But
now that’s over. So what if the sex was great. Just a temporary
escape. Another thing I grew to hate. But now that’s over.
-
- Why you always kick me
when I’m high? Knock me down till we see eye to eye. Figured her
out I know she may not be Miss Right but she’ll do right now.
-
- I used to hang on every
word. Each lie was more absurd. Kept me so insecure but now that’s
over. She taught me how to trust and how to believe in us. Then she
taught me how to cuss…that bitch it’s over. I used to be such a
nice boy.
-
- I confess it’s all
true. I’m a mess, what a fool. Now what do I do.
-
- I need your help to get
up from my knees I can’t seem to see the forest for the trees. As
I wait in my silent misery, all I’m asking is please…forgive me.
-
- Now she knows me. She
wants me to be someone I can’t be…and she wants me…and she
needs me…and she wants me because she loves me. SHATTERED.
-
- Now you see inside. I no
longer hide or fall between the cracks you left behind. Shattered,
now you’re out of time. You’ve come this far to be denied. What
a shame, I’m to blame.
-
- I just can’t seem to
concentrate today. It seems my mind is wandering away. And all the
things swimming through my head fade away as I go back to bed. And I
close my eyes and see how fast time flies.
-
- Cause sunrise comes too
soon. I’m never out of bed before
noon
. Waking up too late seems too soon. And I could never be
Neil Armstrong. I’d be the last man on the moon.
-
- I used to live in a
world of black and white until my dreams turned day into night.
-
- And now I’m never out
of bed before
noon
. And waking
up too late seems too soon. I close my eyes and wait for the
surprise. In a place I know I belong. In my head I can do no wrong.
I could never be Neil Armstrong. I’d be the last man on the moon.
-
- I’m not afraid to go
backwards and fix what we broke. My gaze falls behind, you make
desire seem so easy. I hold off sleep, it’s so silent without you
here. Don’t give up now, it would all be for nothing.
-
- I believe in second
chances, I believe the years forget. Let me fill these empty spaces.
Better late than never, stay forever. Let me fill this empty space.
There’s always room for one more mistake.
-
- Can you feel that? I
think we’re moving in the right direction. I was someone else then
I’d take it back if you would let me. We were never this close
when we were young. Every night I whisper your name at the top of my
lungs.
-
- Alone
again tonight in this empty time. The sound in my head the sight
leaves me blind. I’ll write a million words. I’ll sing until it
hurts.
-
- How
far could this be until it’s seen. How long will I let this go. I
can’t stand to spend another night alone.
-
- I
stare at empty walls I speak, no one hears. I make every excuse and
blame my fears.
- All
these shadows come to rest in my head. I can’t see you I can’t
hear the things you said.
-
- There
is a secret place. You’ll find a bloodstained fence. Its there,
the future speaks and she spoke to me.
-
- All
she’s asking is for a little more time. To walk away from his
anger and leave the bruises far behind. She won’t talk about
it…she’s made up her mind. But as the front door shuts behind
her she whispers, “give me a sign.”
-
- Feels
the power of the engine as she climbs to 65. Every piston sounds
like freedom, every white line says goodbye. She’ll find strength
in her anger and the truth in his lies. When the last scar finally
fades she’ll have a new life.
-
- Say
goodbye to Mr. Right. Lock the door. Turn out the light. Pack your
bags, leave this trap. Run away, don’t look back. See another day
with each new sun. Your life has just begun.
-
- She
can still feel the touch of his hand. Not just the violence but the
warmth of her man.
-
- The
night she never felt so alive even though it feels so cold outside.
It’s the first time I’ve ever seen her smile.
-
- Staring
down from 30,000 feet above the planet, she gets the sense
nothing’s behind her anymore. Her quest for fame has left her
nothing short of a fanatic, for the chance to be the one that we
adore.
-
- Fame’s
what she’s wanting. You can’t go too far when that’s who you
are…because fame’s what she’s wanting. Not a face in the crowd
just a disposable pop star.
-
- They
called her princess cause they always knew she’d be a servant.
Never having an ambition in her life. They all knew she’d end up
just another loser’s girlfriend. Who’d thought she’d become a
Jedi Knight. Bittersweet the taste of……
-
- Once inside the door I
check my face in the mirror, as I look past this lonely minute. Was
this the ride worth waiting for. I’m scared to death that now
I’ve missed it. But she was not the only stone, skipping across
this gravel road leading down the path to loneliness.
-
- So I’ll fly from this
hate, pray my soul the lord will take me to a place through time and
indifference.
-
- I wanna know how do you
feel. I wanna know if this was real. Then tell me what would you say
if you could make this pain go away.
-
- She plans her future
looking bright ahead. Leaves me in the past. I can’t stand to hang
out with my codependent friends. My patience is fading fast.
-
- But every sign and every
song is telling me I don’t belong, but its O.K. to feel scared
cause one day soon I’ll find myself and realize that no one else
will make me feel stupid.
-
- There’s this old man
down in Fell’s Point, always hanging around. Telling me, “son
the pendulum swings both ways but for you, it’ll always swing
down.
-
- I’m one of those
things you’ll save forever, but never need. Like an old newspaper
no one has time to read. This child has grown into a dead end since
I lost the power to pretend.
-
- But it’s all right,
that’s who I am inside. Not much to say on this non-toxic,
ordinary day.
-
- That’s no superhero
standing right in front of us. So take this pocket full of
Kryptonite and beat it back to Metropolis. There’s only room for
one on this microphone in my finest hour I’m still alone.
-
- But old news can change,
as memories float downstream. So don’t judge me by my failures,
only by my dreams.
-
- Last night I had a
dream. It wasn’t about anything. But it made me smile. I made me
scream.
-
- We should take it slow,
cause I can’t let go when it feels so good to feel this low.
-
- I stumble and she sees
all. Waiting for me to fall. Obsessing over her, but it’s nothing
personal.
-
- We should take this slow
cause I can’t let go when it feels so good to feel this low.
We’ll take our time. Tell each other’s lies. In a world so much
brighter if Paul were still alive.
-
- Take this slow till I
lose control. And I’m falling down. Last night I had a dream. It
wasn’t about anything. I made you smile, I made you scream.
