In a lonely dream a boy goes walking
Drowned in shame, drunken with emotion He says his world is just an ocean says his poor heart too many times been broken The bones in your closet Once bore the skin of your fathers Guess that means it's out of your hands Or you're too tired, too tired to bother Help me now, save the wandering child Now that you're broken, who'll clean up this mess Now that your vision is blinded, I guess You say "where do I fall, now that my strength is gone and who do I tell, "I've done nothing wrong" Float upon the river till the water runs still Dive to the bottom-got to drink from the well Till I find who I am, till I find out who I am Now that there's no one to show me Help me now, save the wandering child Help me now, save the wandering child In a lonely dream a boy keeps walking Drowned in shame, drunken with emotion He says his kill-it is his crown Says his angels are no longer looking down A horse and a monkey, no kids and no wife A hell of a way for a hero to spend his life Time to unearth the worm Let this bridge fall down and burn Help me now, save the wandering child Help me now, save the wandering child Help me now, save the wandering child Help me now, save the wandering child |

All I see are faces, a sea of faces
Surrounded by the memory of life before insanity Hard to explain the hunger, if you don't feel it What I really need is your breath raining on my skin And I'm so tired, tired of feeling sorry for myself And I want more All I feel are clouds, surrounded by clouds Yesterday's anger is the sadness of today Our lives were filled with summer and laughter Now are smiles are grey Once I held you close, now my thoughts just drift like the wind Can you feel it, can you feel it Can you feel it, can you feel it Coming down And I'm so tired, tired of feeling sorry for myself And I want more, got me wanting more Night keep falling, and the wind keep calling my name All I see are faces, a sea of faces Surrounded by the memory of life before insanity Hard to explain the hunger, if you don't feel it What I really need is your breath raining on my skin |

Come in with the sunrise, who knows where you go
Smellin' like something, I don't want to know Your sister can't save you, she don't know what to do Your bad behavior has finally caught up to you Bad little doggie Soul all tweeked out, life line thin Loose little school girl, what a shape you're in Blue violence, red rosaries Roots of evil growing into trees I'm through messin', time to learn your lesson Bad little doggie I'm through messin', time to learn your lesson Bad little doggie Come in with the sunrise, gone with the wind Devil in your eyes, pocket full of sin Fire can't melt you when your mind's made up Ice can't cool you, naughty little pup Bad little doggie Bad little doggie Bad little doggie |

It's heavy-lay your burden down
It's heavy-lay your burden down Brother can't you see stars in the night Brother can't you see stars in the night There's a road up yonder far beyond the light Take a ride this morning on a slow train through the sky Take a ride this morning on a slow train through the sky My life is just a fast train, gone in the blink of an eye It's heavy-lay your burden down It's heavy-lay your burden down Felt the hand last Sunday when the stars refuse to shine Felt the hand last Sunday when the stars refuse to shine I'm just a young man, I don't feel like dying It's heavy-lay your burden down It's heavy-lay your burden down Can't you hear the angels screaming or is it all in my head Can't you hear the angels screaming or is it all in my head Looking out my window and the sky is blood red The sky is blood red You got to lay your burden down |

Bigelow the gigolo had no where else to go
His sad eyes had seen it all Scarred and lonely, tough as nails Open your heart when all else fails Wear the veil and the Trojan-horse smile Looking back on yesteryear Seems like maybe you missed your calling But hindsight is very clear when loneliness is falling And you have fallen down Down from the heavens Stuck out in the desert Amazing grace such a lonely place For heroes like you and me Fallen down, just like a shooting star With no fallen angel standing by To carry you away Target practice with other people’s lives Hit a few right between the eyes But most of the time You were wounded by the ricochet You say "play to win boys, never play to lose Long as your playing boys, you’re bullet-proof" But think about it, you’re bleeding to death anyway You have fallen down Down from the heavens Stuck out in the desert Amazing grace such a lonely place For heroes like you and me Fallen down, just like a shooting star With no fallen angel standing by Angel of mercy, take pity on a fool That spent a lifetime wondering What Napoleon would do If he were in your shoes Rich without pleasure, respected without love Drinking poison from a golden cup While anger, creeps like a knife into your heart Looking back on yesteryear Seems like maybe you missed your calling But hindsight is very clear when loneliness is falling And destiny’s through calling And you have fallen down, fallen down Amazing grace, it’s such a lonely place Oh yes it is Fallen down, fallen down Fallen down, fallen down Amazing grace such a lonely place Oh yes yes it is Fallen down, fallen down |

Hey, are you still here, in the morning light
Last night was the world I've never known Parallel universes in one small world collided Now the seed is sewn Time, time, my friend we been through so, so much it seems Alone together till the end And now, though I find this all so threatening I can feel it, sinking into my skin The gods must be nervous Can't you feel it shaking inside you World must be trembling like I am Clouds must be breaking Blood raining down from the heavens And it feels like gold Tastes like wine Strength has always been my enemy Solitude I have known like my own name People by now know what to expect from me Nothing, and I will do the same |

He was a cowboy in an Indian bar
Not a real cowboy - but I think you know what I mean She wasn't no movie star, but then again She wasn't exactly green He said -like it hot She said -I like it on fire He said -ready or not She said -I'm ready, baby Come on, I'm ready, baby, make me out a liar And the walls exploded into a white smoke-screen Well, not exactly - but I think you know what I mean She was a country girl - never been no where Straight from the woods - I think you know what I mean Told her sister she was out of there Next stop Hollywood - barely seventeen And a voice said -Need a job She cried -desperately It whispered -bow your head She said -Oh Lord, I never thought that this could happen to me And her spirit kind of floated away in a muddy slip stream Well, not exactly - but, I think you know what I mean He was a movie star turned president, not like Eisenhower or DeNiro But, I think you know what I mean Tried to convince us he was heaven sent With that carny smile and a missile in his sleeve He says -feed the poor- yeah, feed 'em to the lions We're screaming -even up the score He's screaming back, now, -we're number one, and we ain't even trying And, now, ain't you proud to be part of the American dream Well, not exactly - I think you know what I mean I think you know what I mean I think you know what I mean |

Hello again - It's me, the fool on the hill
Life here ain't so bad My friends are tired - their lives are wasted Just like their moms and their dads And they don't know what I am talking about And they may never know I'm just fourteen - but I know where I stand Behind these walls - life ain't so easy But it's turned me into a man Sometimes I don't know what I am talking about And I may never know Far away - the cool taste of reality Far away - perfect little family Far away - the little boy I used to be Look at my eyes - maybe they'll show you the truth The truth I cannot see Once in a while I catch a glimpse of it all But it slips away from me Someday I'll know what's going on in my head For now, I'll just stay here Far away - the cool taste of reality Far away - perfect little family Far away - the little boy I used to be Far away I hate it when they look right through you It sends me into a rage I know I ain't crazy - and I don't need your proof I just need out of this cage Hello again - It's me, the fool on the hill Life here ain't so bad |

Woman, suspended in time
Heal yourself, no need to stay blind Spiral dreams, too much to bear Spiralling, who knows where Let me take you down No need to suffer any more Wrap yourself in the warmth of my arms We'll lie awake till sleep overtakes us Can't you see There's no need to suffer any more Defenceless, trapped in a cage Blissfulness, devoured by the rage Fates' been cruel, though the years been kind You've got to heal yourself, no need to stay blind Let me take you down No need to suffer any more Wrap yourself in the warmth of my arms We'll laugh out loud, while the earth dies screaming Can't you see There's no need to suffer any more And we'll fly away Look down at the earth below Fly away, we'll never look back Never look back Woman suspended in time Heal yourself, no need to stay blind |

I can't save you - but I can talk you down
I can hold you - but I won't watch you drown In my life - things have a way of growing downward And I don't know if I can watch myself be a coward Again I don't know you like I thought I did But I will show you things that I kept hid In my life - I've always been the one that had to ruin things So I don't know - is some dark angel pulling on my heart strings Again In my life - things have a kind of ragged beauty And I don't seem to know right from wrong Or so they say - unless it's happening to me People change - I don't know what for Strangers walking in and out my door Something's got to change - the past just hangs here to remind me That one of these mornings - I'll reach for you And find me I have told you - I won't watch you drown I can't save you - but I will be around |
