I walk these streets they built with progress I search for truth but found no well And when the sun arises diamonds in the dawn I look to you but found no one
Back to distant stars where I know you are I wanna be back home again To that sacred sun where the sky is warm I'll be in your arms again
I'll save the last goodbye for you
Under the neon lights in darkness I found a way to bring you home I read the words I cannot see why they all follow It's all just poison for their minds
An as I slip into the madness The angel spirit cries for me
To that sacred sun where the sky is warm I'll be in your arms again
I played the fool it seems a thousand times before When I got older thought I've learned my lesson well Then you came into my life and brought me down Another lesson towards my fate
I feel like I've been standin' on the sun Your fire burned my soul like no ones ever done
You can say what you want but don't bring me down If you want me to play in your garden Then don't bring me down Baby if you want my love Then don't bring me down
Your hyperstatic conversation till the dawn It makes me tired but I see it turns you on A tense relationship was all you've ever known I tried to play but now it cuts me to the bone
I look into your eyes a thousand years away For my compassion all I got was tears I feel like I've been standing on the sun Your fire burned my soul like no one's ever done
Turn the lights down low there's nobody home I've been watchin' for hours the clock on the wall Seems the hands are frozen they don't move at all Then the silence breaks as you walk through the door On an on an on somewhere I don't belong I'm all out of reasons to stay so I won't On an on an onit won't leave me alone Wish that you could remember the time when I said
I can't wait any longer to love you Turns my reflection away from the day I can't stand when you're so indecisive Make up your mind so I can escape
When I hold you close there's nobody home I can hear every heartbeat whisper and woe Turn me on with your eyes as I smile right on cue You rehearse everything that you say an you do On an on an on you and I don't belong There's no reason to stay anymore so I won't On an on an on something's terribly wrong Wish that you could remember the time that we said
I waited so long I'm going to the otherside I'm losing my mind over you I've been watchin' for hours the clock on the wall Seems the hands are frozen they don't move at all
Said you were Sophia Should have known you by another name I tried to be a believer babe But I sank down in your shame Livin' on the east side I was in the west I tried to bring my love to you But you trashed me like the rest
I've been haunted by your love You gave me heartbreak
Tried to be your lover tried to be your friend Tried to take your pain away Would have loved you to the end But their ain't no use in cryin' I will get along Hope you find your happiness In your misery and woe
And I hope you're cryin' all alone You left me haunted by your love Haunted
And when you wake you find you're still alone Drownin' in your tears Will you see what you have done When the love I had for you is gone
Safer today to go outside your window Go down the stairs You remember the way New combinations you found in your letter Ready to fly and escape
You're off the meds and bad tranquilizers Keeping it down isn't your style of fun Taking a walk in the park by the children All that you want is a smile
Everybody's getting high today Go on and alter your mind Fade away Fade away Fade away
Let it go, let it go, there's no reason to stay
All that you want is some peace in the sunshine Far from the freaks who are on Staring at TV alone with no sunsets Time for your oranges and blues You're off the meds and the bad tranquilizers Keeping you down isn't your style of fun Taking a walk in the park by the children All that you want is a smile
Everybody's getting high today Go on and alter your mind Fade away Fade away Fade away
Hash, Pot, Effexor, Profexor, Ellexor, Jack Daniels, Jim Beam…)
Everybody's getting high today Go on and alter your mind
So when they lock you again In a white room Holding you down Antiseptic your fate You don't belong in a place Where they talk to themselves It's just hell
As I walked along the beach last night Tried to find myself and get it right If you saw the changes in my eyes Riding on the wind you know it cries When you need some one It's hard to let them go When you know that their the one When you feel your hope is gone Know that I still care for you Even thoe your gone I taste your tears You think it would have passed After all these years Thoe you find away Every night I think of you I hope your sleeping well When you need some one When your hearts alone When you feel your hope si gone Know that I still care for you When I feel you close to me Even thoe it's just a dream Please forgive that I still care When your lonliness is there I still think of you Care for you Waiting for After all this time has gone I still feel you in my arms And when you need some one Know that I still care for you As I walked along the beach last night Tried to find my self and get it right If you saw the changes in my eyes Would you come back
You were the one on the trigger Deciding the fate of us all Testing my fate in religion Tryin to make sense of it all All hope was lost, I found reason To look in your eyes and find something
The promise you gave was that you'd remain, Not leave me here and go missin I've been the one in the shadows Watching your life through a window When you open your eyes and feel me inside you why would you leave me for others
Wait for me, I'll come for you Wait for me, can't you see I'm still sad I'm still I'm sad All hope was lost, I found reason To look in your eyes and find something It's was like two days apart From the truth Was my soul the piece you been missin
You've got the gun pull the trigger Strait to the heart of the matter If it's all been in vain why do I remain Watchin you leave me for others
Wait for me, I'll come for you Wait for me, this day is not through Wait for me, it's about time were through Wait for me, can't you see I'm still sad Still I'm sad
Wait for me, I'll come for you Wait for me, this day is not through Wait for me, it's about time we through Wait for me, can't you see I'm still sad Still I'm sad
Still I'm sad
Still I'm sad
Still I'm sad
Watch your life through your window Shadows fall As the darkness falls to gray
Mother dear I've got to go Find my way out in the world Somethin's callin' me and I can't stay As the leaves are fallin' down Soon the snow upon the ground Hope you'll understand why I can't stay
Waiting for the sun When I start to run Waiting for.......
Though I'm young not quite a man I'll try and do the best I can Duty calls my friends are all aboard Feel the wind across my face Standing ready all in place On the trigger I'll become a man
Waiting for the sun
See the people falling down Crimson colors all around Tryin' to make it to the higher ground
Mother dear I had to go Find my way out in the world Sorry but I won't be coming home
It's not hard to believe That the world isn't real When the sun doesn't shine in your eyes All the time It's not hard to concede As we cry and we bleed everyday We just won't leave Feel your heart stop Still alive but you're not So you scream that you've had enough, Done enough, said enough
See the reflections of lives that you've changed As you look in the mirror and try to believe It's been hard that I know But I could have told you so You reap what you sow
Can you see In my face All these tears I saved for you Can you see It's not right That our love was never real
Is it right to hold on to the words that we spoke Even though now that feeling is gone in your eyes It's been hard to let you go Even though you found someone new Everyday It's been hard to find With no peace of mind
As I walked along the beach last night Tried to find myself and get it right If you saw the changes in my eyes Riding on the wind you know it cries When you need some one It's hard to let them go When you know that their the one When you feel your hope is gone Know that I still care for you Even thoe your gone I taste your tears You think it would have passed After all these years Thoe you find away Every night I think of you I hope your sleeping well When you need some one When your hearts alone When you feel your hope si gone Know that I still care for you When I feel you close to me Even thoe it's just a dream Please forgive that I still care When your lonliness is there I still think of you Care for you Waiting for After all this time has gone I still feel you in my arms And when you need some one Know that I still care for you As I walked along the beach last night Tried to find my self and get it right If you saw the changes in my eyes Would you come back
Why do you -- Invade me I beg you -- don't leave me Don't trust you -- don't trust me I stand here -- benignly
What is inside that's pushing me We're all a puppet on a string This wooden world is just like me We're all puppets on a string -- on a string
I hurt you -- you killed me I love you -- you hated me You gave in -- it thrilled me You sex was -- fulfilling
What is inside that's pushing me Like a puppet on a string This wooden world is just like me We're all puppets on a string -- on a string
I hurt you -- you tortured me I love you -- you hated me You gave in -- it thrilled me Your sex was fulfilling I hurt you -- you cut me Your painful emission of how you felt How you felt -- how you felt My ego -- could not take
What is inside that's pushing me Like a puppet on a string This wooden world is just like me We're all puppets on a string -- on a string
We're all puppets on a string You buried me You buried me on a string
So -- so incomplete we look into the world -- find no peace once -- it seemed serene we'd be forever young and so it seemed what does it mean -- I find no answers kept in a dream -- soft colored layers
I see myself through the looking glass a shade of gray a shade of black no ups or downs just in betweens
The gentle rain begins to fall come with me and see it all
Rise above the world upon my wings I was sleeping with the sky beneath my feet
Now I drift endless and free with the wind that carries me what does it mean -- what does it matter kept in a dream with soft colored layers
The gentle rain begins to fall come with me and see it all
Rise above the world upon my wings I was sleeping with the sky beneath my feet
Overtake me -- seize the vision through my eyes and reinstate me -- bathe me in your sunlight until I know -- until I know
constant motion -- kept me standing still howling silence -- penetrate and break my will
so re-embrace me -- the release me one more time until I know -- until I know so re-embrace me -- the release me one more time until I know -- until I know
Liquid fused around my body swimming in the night's black water justifies a child's exsistance innocence abounds within us but what does it matter
Watch my hand turn shades of gray feel my life's breath fade away soon I'll walk through gates of steel to a place not yet revealed but what does it matter
Hello death, hello death hello death -- how do you do? I don't remember calling you
All I need is just a drink of water help me Jesus -- try to ease my pain all I need is just to drink your water hello Mr. Death please go away
Here I go into the earth and here I'll wait until my birth I will rise again someday tranquility will find a way but what does it matter
Hello death, hello death hello death -- how do you do? I don't remember calling you
All I need is just a drink of water help me Jesus -- try to ease my pain all I need is just to drink your water hello Mr. Death please go away
I'm walkin' down these dark streets - all alone a light ahead free coffee if you have no home a parking lot full of people - same as me waiting for the Messiah - his shift will start at three
He's a real convenience store messiah idol worship for an idle mind he's a real convenience store messiah turning bottled water into win
waiting for the papers to come outside they make such nice warm blankets - get in line sometimes he might let us - stay inside the only one who will listen he can be so kind
He's a real convenience store messiah idol worship for an idle mind he's a real convenience store messiah turning bottled water into wine
(They see through eyes) looking through his window (a glowing light) staring at his vision late at night (they idolize, they realize) reaching out their hands
He's a real convenience store messiah idol worship for an idle mind he's a real convenience store messiah turning bottled water into wine
I will rise up - over this 'till I come to a higher place I will find strength - let go of all the ties to my disgrace
I'm no more - and no less than anyone else looking for a new horizon I can find in myself
(It's all right) the shadow's gone (shine your light) with the risin' sun (It's all right) take me as I am (yeah yeah yeah) cuz here I stand
No hesitation - holdin' back I'll take each step one by one but I might fall - I could stray If I loose my eye's today
I'm only one in a crowd I'm just one voice on the line looking for a new horizon another place another time
(It's all right) the shadow's gone (shine your light) with the risin' sun (It's all right) take me as I am (yeah yeah yeah) cuz here I stand
In our hands a light shines we still wonder change our world into sand we will hunger like a child -fears the night- draws near its mother like a son -fears no one- will cast our shadow forever 'cause here I stand
