Well I'm in another state, another state of mind,
I wish that I could be there right next to her
This road leads to this, and this one leads to that,
Her voice sends shivers down my spine.
These scars in my flesh,
I'm bruised and I'm bloodied
Only she knows the pain that I've been through.
Talk to her a thousand miles away,
There's tears in her eyes.
If I make it back I'm gonna show her,
she's the only one for me
Hitch a ride on the wild side,
It's real hell on wheels.
There's gonna be a fight tonight, I know.
Another city we can't find,
Another city left buried behind.
As I picture her, the cities burn away.

We all lead such elaborate lives
Wild ambitions in our sights
How an affair of the heart survives
Days apart and hurried nights
Seems quite unbelievable to me
I don't want to live like that
Seems quite unbelievable to me
I don't want to love like that
I just want our time to be slower and gentler, wiser, free
We all live in extravagant times
Playing games we can't all win
Unintended emotional crimes
Take some out, take others in
I'm so tired of all we're going through
I don't want to live like that
I'm so tired of all we're going through
I don't want to love like that
I just want to be with you now and forever, peaceful, true
This may not be the moment
To tell you face to face
But I could wait forever
For the perfect time and place
We all live such elaborate lives
We don't know whose words are true
Strangers, lovers, husbands, wives
Hard to know whose loving who
Too many choices tear us apart
I don't want to live like that
Too many choices tear us apart
I don't want to love like that
I just want to touch your heart, may this confession be the start

It can't be love
for there is no true love
It can't be love
for there is no true love
Sure I'm C.F.K.
but you gotta love me
the cost no man can say
but you gotta love me
Well I'm sorry but I'm not
interested in gold mines, oil wells, shipping or real estate
what would I liked to have been?
everything you hate
cause It can't be love
for there is no true love
It can't be love
for there is no true love
There is a man
a certain man
and for the poor you may be sure
that he'll do all he can
who is this one?
who's favourite son?
just by his action has the traction
magnets on the run
who likes to smoke
enjoys a joke
and wouldn't get a bit
upset if he were really broke
with wealth and fame
he's still the same
I'll bet you five you're not alive
If you don't know his name
You said the union forever
You said the union forever
You cried the union forever
but that was untrue girl
cause It can't be love
for there is no true love
It can't be love
for there is no true love
for there is no true love
It can't be love
for there is no true love
Sure I'm C.F.K.

There's no home for you here girl, go away
There's no home for you here
I'd like to think that all of this constant interaction
Is just the kind of make you drive yourself away
Each simple gesture done by me is counteracted
And leaves me standing here with nothing else to say
Completely baffled by a backward indication
That an inspired word will come across your tongue
Hands moving upward to propel the situation
Have simply halted
And now the conversation's done
There's no home for you here girl, go away
There's no home for you here
I'm only waiting for the proper time to tell you
That it's impossible to get along with you
It's hard to look you in the face when we are talking
So it helps to have a mirror in the room
I've not been really looking forward to the performance
But there's my cue and there's a question on your face
Fortunately I have come across an answer
Which is go away
And do not leave a trace
There's no home for you here girl, go away
There's no home for you here
Waking up for breakfast
Burning matches
Talking quickly
Breaking baubles
Throwing garbage
Drinking soda
Looking happy
Taking pictures
So completely stupid
Just go away
There's no home for you here girl, go away
There's no home for you here
There's no home for you here

Through the corridors of sleep
Past the shadows dark and deep
My mind dances and leaps in confusion.
I don't know what is real,
I can't touch what I feel
And I hide behind the shield of my illusion.
So I'll continue to continue to pretend
My life will never end,
And flowers never bend
With the rainfall.
The mirror on my wall
Casts an image dark and small
But I'm not sure at all it's my reflection.
I am blinded by the light
Of God and truth and right
And I wander in the night without direction.
So I'll continue to continue to pretend
My life will never end,
And flowers never bend
With the rainfall.
It's no matter if you're born
To play the King or pawn
For the line is thinly drawn 'tween joy and sorrow,
So my fantasy
Becomes reality,
And I must be what I must be and face tomorrow.
So I'll continue to continue to pretend
My life will never end,
And flowers never bend
With the rainfall.
Past the shadows dark and deep
My mind dances and leaps in confusion.

When our lives give us time again
Sometimes we dive right in
Sometimes you're here but gone
When your thinking of things to do
And you let it get to you
Seems like you'd rather be alone
And it feels like I've
knocked on your door and
I'm waiting
You're somewhere inside but don't come
You've got your reasons
Sometimes I think that it's me
You're hiding from
Show me
Show me
Show me the secret
Where you keep it
Show me the key
Show me
I love the nights when our timing is right
It fades with the moon up above
'Cause that's when memories get made
That would never fade
And we feel the depths of our love
Well we don't have time for
the stars to align
Let's change our fate with desire
So what can I do to get through to you
When you're worried, frightened, and tired
Sometimes we dive right in
Sometimes you're here but gone
When your thinking of things to do
And you let it get to you
Seems like you'd rather be alone
And it feels like I've
knocked on your door and
I'm waiting
You're somewhere inside but don't come
You've got your reasons
Sometimes I think that it's me
You're hiding from
Show me
Show me
Show me the secret
Where you keep it
Show me the key
Show me
I love the nights when our timing is right
It fades with the moon up above
'Cause that's when memories get made
That would never fade
And we feel the depths of our love
Well we don't have time for
the stars to align
Let's change our fate with desire
So what can I do to get through to you
When you're worried, frightened, and tired
Monday, January 11, 2010
Just one turn to steer your fate
or wait for fate to spin you
Your trusting's fine
but much too blind
Your compass is within you
These days pass you yearning
like empty pages turning
You're holding out for something real
you can't play pretender
because you still remember
just how full your heart can feel
But how long the distance getting by and getting through
Your heart's strong insistence
says that nothing else will do
Or you could try on their distractions
wear some empty compromise
but it's hard to breathe
inside some cheap disguise
You can live your life completely
that true path you're here to find
or stay scared
and leave your destiny behind
It's right now
here's the turning point in time
Just one thing can kill this dream
to compromise your vision
We find our truth or live some lie
It rides on this decision
Meanwhile those other voices:
"hurry up and rush your choices,"
try to second guess your fate, oh yeah
"you can't wait forever"
"gotta pull yourself together"
"feel the time is running late"
Well this time right now
the turning point is here
so look deep, see clear
soon your chance will disappear
Or you could drift into distraction, wear
that empty compromise
but it's hard to breathe
inside that cheap disguise
You can live your life completely
that true path you're here to find
or stay scared and leave your destiny behind
It's right now
here's the turning point in time
Here's the turning point in time
Here's the turning point in time.

I could stay awhile, but sooner or later I'll break your smile
And I can tell a joke, but one of these days I'm bound to choke
And we could share a kiss
But I feel like I can't go through with this
And I bet we could build a home
But I know the right thing for me to do
Is to leave you alone.. leave you alone now..
I'm beginning to like you, so you probably won't get what I'm going to do
I'm walkin' away from you, it probably don't make much sense to you
But I'm tryin' to save you, from all of the things that I'll probably say I'll do I probably do
I could stay awhile, but sooner or later I'll break your smile
And I can tell a joke, but one of these days I'm bound to choke
And we might share a kiss
But I feel like I can't go through with this
And I bet we could build a home
But I know the right thing for me to do
Is to leave you alone leave you alone now
You'll probably call me a fool and say I'm doing exactly what a coward would do
And I'm beginning to like you, it's a shame what a lame way to live, but what can I do?
I hope you appreciate what I do
I'm a martyr for my love for you
And I can tell a joke, but one of these days I'm bound to choke
And we could share a kiss
But I feel like I can't go through with this

yesterday
i stood and stared
wide-eyed in front of you
and the face i saw looked back
the way i wanted to
but i just can't hold my tears away
the way you do
elise believe i never wanted this
i thought this time i'd keep all of my promises
i thought you were the girl always dreamed about
but i let the dream go
and the promises broke
and the make-believe ran out...

Did you like the voodoo that I put now on you
When I slither in my closet, sweat vengeance like a faucet.
Was I the only monkey junkie flunky who turned out to disappoint you, honey
Yeah I am
Did I stop computer porn cause you didn't turn me on ?
No I didn't
Did I get tired of your shit and give you my fucking lip, yeah I did
Are my unheard objections invalid to you ?

In between a nightmare and a daydream
My life's out of focus, hocus pocus
I've become a machine
Design the crime to slip my mind
Build it up and rip it down
I just wanna let you know where I am
Over and out
There's something taking over and out
The devil on my shoulder, I turn around
I thought I could change, I thought I could quit
But when you came around you knocked me down,
I could not resist
We can keep it like a secret nobody will ever know
I should have told you a long time ago

U2 -Until The End Of The World
Haven't seen you in quite a while
I was down the hold just passing time
Last time we met was a low-lit room
We were as close together as a bride and groom
We ate the food, we drank the wine
Everybody having a good time
Except you
You were talking about the end of the world
I took the money
I spiked your drink
You miss too much these days if you stop to think
You lead me on with those innocent eyes
You know I love the element of surprise
In the garden I was playing the tart
I kissed your lips and broke your heart
You...you were acting like it was
The end of the world
(Love...love...)
In my dream I was drowning my sorrows
But my sorrows, they learned to swim
Surrounding me, going down on me
Spilling over the brim
Waves of regret and waves of joy
I reached out for the one I tried to destroy
You...you said you'd wait
'til the end of the world

LIKE A MOUSE INSIDE A MAZE
WANDERING ROUND 4 DAZE
WITH A SMILE UPON MY FACE,
I NEVER WANNA LEAVE THIS PLACE
ONLY POOR BOYS TAKE A CHANCE,
ON THE GARDEN'S SONG AND DANCE,
FEEL HER FLOWERS AS THEY WRAP AROUND,
BUT ONLY SMART BOYS DO WITHOUT
TURNED INTO MY WORST PHOBIA,
A CRAZY MAN'S UTOPIA
IF YOU'RE LOST NO ONE CAN SHOW YA,
BUT IT SURE WAS GLAD TO KNOW YA
BYE BYE
SO LONG, BYE BYE
IT'S GLAD TO KNOW YA

Ooh, and all I taught her was everything
Ooh, I know she gave me all that she wore
And now my bitter hands chafe beneath the clouds
Of what was everything.
Oh, the pictures have all been washed in black, tattooed everything...
...
All the love gone bad turned my world to black
Tattooed all I see, all that I am, all I'll be... yeah...
Uh huh... uh huh... ooh...
I know someday you'll have a beautiful life,
I know you'll be a sun in somebody else's sky, but why
Why, why can't it be, can't it be mine

"Long road to ruin there in your eyes
Under the cold streetlights
No tomorrow, no dead end in sight"
"goddamn this dusty room
this hazy afternoon
i'm breathing in the silence like never before
this feeling that i get
this one last cigarette
as i lay awake and wait for you to come through that door
oh maybe, maybe, maybe i can share it with you
i behave i behave i behave so i can share it with you.....
you'll dream about somewhere, a smoke will fill the air
i can change, i can change, i can change
but who you want me to be?
i'm the same, i'm the same, i'm the same, what do you want me to be?"
"Don't take what I don't need
(Give me back my peace of mind)
Don't say what I don't need
(Give me back my precious time)
No way you'll silence me
(Give me back my peace and quiet)
Nowhere to hide from me
You'll see"

MISSY
I met her one night at the coffee shop
Her face so bright, my heart just stopped
Hello my dear, I fear I'm not what I seem
I'm not what I seem
I should've become a better man
I should be more deserving than
The beggar, thief and courtesan I've been
Oh, that I've been
But I swear, I lie, I curse all of my dreams
But I swear there's still some good in me
And I think if you stuck around you'd see
All the honest attempts at integrity, I was had
Maybe if you helped me, I'd get it right
I stay awake almost every night, stare at the ceiling
Wondering why I feel so bad, why I feel so bad
But I swear, I swear, I swear I'll never get sad
I met her one night at the coffee shop

hey you
what you running from?
all your hate
what you've become
bet you didn't think
it would happen to you
all used up
half way through
and this is not my face
and this is not my life
and there is not a single thing here
i can recognize
this is all a dream
and none of you are real
i'll give anything
i'll give anything
