The heart is a bloom
Shoots up through the stony ground There's no room No space to rent in this town You're out of luck And the reason that you had to care The traffic is stuck And you're not moving anywhere You though t you'd found a friend To take you out of this place Someone you could lend a hand In return for grace It's a beautiful day Sky falls you feel like It's a beautiful day Don't let it get away You're on the road But you've got no destination You're in the mud In the maze of her imagination You love this town Even if that doesn't ring true You've been all over And it's been all over you It's a beautiful day Don't let it get away It's a beautiful day Touch me Take me to that other place Teach me I know I'm not a hopeless case See the world in green and blue See China right in front of you See the canyons broken by cloud See the tuna fleets clearing the sea out See the Bedouin fires at night See the oil fields at first light And see the bird with a leaf in her mouth After the flood all the colors came out It was a beautiful day Don't let it get away Beautiful day Touch me Take me to that other place Reach me I know I'm not a hopeless case What you don't have you don't need it now What you don't know you can feel it somehow What you don't have you don't need it now Don't need it now Was a beautiful day |

I'm not afraid
Of anything in this world There's nothing you can throw at me That I haven't already heard I'm just trying to find A decent melody A song that I can sing In my own company I never thought you were a fool But darling look at you You gotta stand up straight Carry your own weight These tears are going nowhere baby You've got to get yourself together You've got stuck in a moment And now you can't get out of it Don't say that later will be better Now you're stuck in a moment And you can't get out of it I will not forsake The colors that you bring The nights you filled with fireworks They left you with nothing I am still enchanted By the light you brought to me I listen through your ears Through your eyes I can see And you are such a fool To worry like you do I know it's tough And you can never get enough Of what you don't really need now My oh my You've got to get yourself together You've got stuck in a moment And you can't get out of it Oh love look at you now You've got yourself stuck in a moment And you can't get out of it I was unconscious half asleep The water is warm 'til you discover how deep I wasn't jumping for me it was a fall It's a long way down to nothing at all You've got to get yourself together You've got stuck in a moment And you can't get out of it Don't say that later will be better Now you're stuck in a moment And you can't get out of it And if the night runs over And if the day won't last And if our way should falter Along the stony pass And if the night runs over And if the day won't last And if your way should falter Along this stony pass It's just a moment This time will pass |

High higher than the sun
You shoot me from a gun I need you to elevate me here At the corner of your lips As the orbit of your hips Eclipse you elevate my soul I've lost all self control Been living like mole Now going down excavation I and I in the sky You make me feel like I can fly So high elevation A star lit up like a cigar Strung out like a guitar Maybe you could educate my mind Explain all these controls I can't sing but I've got soul The goal is elevation A mole living in a hole Digging up my soul Going down excavation I and I in the sky You make me feel like I can fly So high elevation Love lift me out of these blues Won't you tell me something true I believe in you A mole living in a hole Digging up my soul Going down excavation I and I in the sky You make me feel like I can fly So high elevation Elevation Elevation Elevation Elevation |

And if the darkness is to keep
us apart And if the daylight feels like it's a long way off And if your glass heart should crack Before the second you turn back Oh no be strong Walk on walk on What you got they can't steal it No they can't even feel it Walk on walk on Stay safe tonight You're packing a suitcase for a place None of us has been A place that has to be believed to be seen You could have flown away A singing bird in an open cage Who will only fly only fly for freedom Walk on walk on What you got you can't deny it Can't sell it or buy it Walk on walk on Stay safe tonight And I know it aches How your heart it breaks You can only take so much Walk on Walk on Home hard to know what it is if you never had one Home I can't say where it is but I know I'm going Home that's where the heart is And I know it aches How your heart it breaks You can only take so much Walk on leave behind All this you can leave behind All that you fashion all that you make All that you build all that you break All that you measure all that you feel All this you can leave behind All that you reason all that you care I'll never fill up all my mind All that you sense all that you scheme |

Something is about to give
I can feel it coming, I think I know what it is I'm not afraid to die I'm not afraid to live And when I'm flying on my back I hope to feel like I did And hardness, it sets in You need some protection, the thin of her skin I want you to know that you don't need me anymore I want you to know that you don't need anyone or anything at all Who's to say where the wind will take you Who's to say what it is will break you I don't know which way the wind will blow Who's to know when the time is coming around Don't wanna see you cry I know that this is not goodbye And somewhere I can taste the salty sea There's a kite blowing out of control on a breeze I wonder what is gonna happen to you You wonder what has happened to me I'm a man, I'm not a child A man who sees the shadows behind your eyes Who's to say where the wind will take you Who's to say what it is will break you I don't know where the wind will blow Who's to know when the time is coming around Don't wanna see you cry I know that this is not goodbye Did I waste it? Not so much I couldn't taste it Life shouldn't be fragerent Rooftop to the basement The last of the rock stars When people drove the big cars In the time when new media was the big idea That was the big idea |

In a little while
Surely you'll be back In a little while I'll be there In a little while This hurt will hurt no more I'll be home, love When the night takes a deep breath And the daylight has no end If I crawl, if I come crawling home WiIl you be there In a little while I will blow by every breeze Friday night running To Sunday on my knees That girl, that girl She's mine And I've know her since Since you were a little girl With Spanish eyes Oh, when I saw her In a pram they pushed her by My, how you've grown Well it's been It's been a little while Slow down my bleeding heart Man dreams one day to fly A man takes a rocketship into the skys He lives on starlets dying in the night And follows in the trail The scatter of light Turn it on Turn it on You turn me on Slow down my bleeding heart Slowly, slowly love Slow down my bleeding heart Slowly, slowly love Slow down my beating heart Slowly, slowly love |

In the days
When we were swinging from the trees I was a monkey Stealing honey from a swarm of bees I could taste I could taste you even then And I would chase you down the wind You could go there if you please Wild honey And if you go there, go with me Wild honey Did I know you? Did I know you even then? Before the clocks kept time Before the world was made From the cruel sun You were shelter You were my shelter and my shade If you go there with me Wild honey You can do just what you please Wild honey Yeah, just blowing in the breeze Wild honey Wild, wild, wild I'm still standing, I'm still standing Where you left me Are you still growing wild With everything tame around you? I send you flowers Cut flowers for your hall I know your garden's full But is there sweetness at all? oh oh oh If you go there with me Wild honey Won't you take me, take me please Wild honey Yeah, swinging through the trees Wild honey Wild, wild, wild |

Heaven on Earth
We need it now I'm sick of all of this Hanging around Sick of sorrow I'm sick of the pain I'm sick of hearing Again and again That there's gonna be Peace on Earth Where I grew up There weren't many trees Where there was we'd tear them down And use them on our enemies They say that what you mock Will surely overtake you And you become a monster So the monster will not break you And it's already gone too far Who said that if you go in hard You won't get hurt Jesus can you take the time To throw a drowning man a line Peace on Earth Tell the ones who hear no sound Whose sons are living in the ground Peace on Earth No whos or whys No one cries like a mother cries For peace on Earth She never got to say goodbye To see the color in his eyes Now he's in the dirt Peace on Earth They're reading names out Over the radio All the folks the rest of us Won't get to know Sean and Julia Gareth, Ann, and Breda Their lives are bigger than Any big idea Jesus can you take the time To throw a drowning man a line Peace on Earth To tell the ones who hear no sound Whose sons are living in the ground Peace on Earth Jesus in this song you wrote The words are sticking in my throat Peace on Earth Hear it every Christmas time But hope and history won't rhyme So what's it worth This peace on Earth Peace on Earth Peace on Earth Peace on Earth |

When you look
at the world What is it that you see? People find all kinds of things That bring them to their knees I see an expression so clear and so true That it changes the atmosphere When you walk into the room So I try to be like you Try to feel it like you do But without you it's no use I can't see what you see When I look at the world~ When the night is someone elses And you're trying to get some sleep When your thoughts are too expensive To ever want to keep When there's all kinds of chaos And everyone is walking lame You don't even blink now do you Or even look away So I try to be like you Try to feel it like you do But without you it's no use I can't see what you see When I look at the world~ I can't wait any longer I can't wait till I'm stronger Can't wait any longer to see what you see When I look at the world~ I'm in the waiting room Can't see for the smoke I think of you and your holy book While the rest of us choke Tell me tell me what do you see? Tell me tell me what's wrong with me~ |

In New York freedom looks like
Too many choices In New York I found a friend To drown out the other voices Voices on a cell phone Voices from home Voices of the hard sell Voices down a stairwell In New York Just got a place in New York In New York summers get hot Well into the hundreds You can't walk around the block Without a change of clothing Hot as a hair dryer in your face Hot as handbag and a can of mace New York I just got a place in New York New York New York In New York you can forget Forget how to sit still Tell yourself you will stay in But it's down to Alphaville New York New York, New York New York, New York New York The Irish been coming here for years Feel like they own the place They got the airport, city hall Asphalt, asphalt They even got the police Irish, Italians, Jews and Hispanics Religious nuts, political fanatics in the stew Happily not like me and you That's where I lost you New York New York, New York New York New York, New York New York New York In New York I lost it all To you and your vices Still I'm staying on to figure out My midlife crisis I hit an iceberg in my life You know I'm still afloat You lose your balance, lose your wife In the queue for the lifeboat You got to put the women and children first But you've got an unquenchable thirst for New York New York New York New York, New York In the stillness of the evening When the sun has had its day I heard your voice whispering Come away now New, New York New... New York New York |

Grace
She takes the blame She covers the shame Removes the stain It could be her name Grace It's a name for a girl It's also a thought that Changed the world And when she walks on the street You can hear the strings Grace finds goodness In everything Grace She's got the walk Not on a ramp or on chalk She's got the time to talk She travels outside Of karma, karma She travels outside Of karma When she goes to work You can hear the strings Grace finds beauty In everything Grace She carries a world on her hips No champagne flute for her lips No twirls or skips Between her fingertips She carries a pearl In perfect condition What once was hurt What once was friction What left a mark No longer stings Because grace makes beauty Out of ugly things Grace finds beauty In everything Grace finds goodness In everything |
