Jack Johnson

Your voice is adrift I can't expect it to sing to me As if I was the only one I'll follow you The leaf that's following the sun When will my weight be too much for you? When will these ideas really be my own? Cause this moment keeps on moving We were never meant to hold on This was a scene worth waking up for When I woke up You planted me in my own body Don't know why But somehow it just feels so wrong When you're sad I will be lonely But when you rise again I'll become the sun I will shine down upon you As if you were the only one Your voice is your own, I can't protect it You'll have to sing A verse no one has ever known Don't be afraid Cause no one ever sings alone Your way will never be too much for me Your ideas have always been your own And this moment keeps on moving We were never meant to hold on

all at once, the world can't overwhelm me theres almost nothin' that you could tell me that could ease my mind which way will you run when its always all around you and the feelin' lost and found you again a feelin' that we have no control around a song some say theres gonna be the new hell some say its still too early to tell some say it really ain't no myth at all keep askin ourselves are we really strong enough there's so many things that we got too proud of we're too proud of we're too proud of i wanna take the preconceived out from underneath your feet we could shake it off instead we'll plant some seeds we'll watch em' as they grow and with each new beat from your heart the roots grow deeper the branches will they reach for what nobody really knows but underneath it all theres this heart all alone what about is gone and it really won't be so long sometimes it feels like a heart is no place to be singin' from at all theres a world we've never seen theres still hope between the dreams the weight of it all could blow away with a breeze if your waitin on the wind don't forget to breathe cause as the darkness gets deeper we'll be sinkin as we reach for love at least somethin we could hold but i'll reach to you from where time just can't go what about is gone and it really won't be so long sometimes it feels like a heart is no place to be singin' from at all

all at once,
the world can't overwhelm me
theres almost nothin' that you could tell me
that could ease my mind

which way will you run
when its always all around you
and the feelin' lost and found you again
a feelin' that we have no control
around a song
some say
theres gonna be the new hell
some say
its still too early to tell
some say
it really ain't no myth at all

keep askin ourselves are we really
strong enough
there's so many things that we got
too proud of
we're too proud of
we're too proud of

i wanna take the preconceived
out from underneath your feet
we could shake it off

instead we'll plant some seeds
we'll watch em' as they grow
and with each new beat
from your heart the roots grow deeper
the branches will they reach for what
nobody really knows
but underneath it all
theres this heart all alone

what about is gone
and it really won't be so long
sometimes it feels like a heart is no place to be singin' from at all

theres a world we've never seen
theres still hope between the dreams
the weight of it all
could blow away with a breeze
if your waitin on the wind
don't forget to breathe
cause as the darkness gets deeper
we'll be sinkin as we reach for love
at least somethin we could hold
but i'll reach to you from where time just can't go

I`ve got an angel
She doesn`t wear any wings
She wears a heart that compelled my own
She wears a smile that makes you wanna sing
She gives me presents
Where the presents are loans
She gives me everything I could wish for
She gives me kisses on the lips just for coming home

She could make angels
I`ve seen it with my own eyes
You gotta be careful when you *something* up



Cause the angels will just keep on multiplying

But you`re so busy changing the world
Just one smile can change all of mine
We share the same soul
Oh oh oh oh oh ohhh
We Share the same soul

There's no combination of words
I could put on the back of a postcard
No song that I could sing
But I can try for your heart,
our dreams, and they are made out of real things
like a shoebox of photographs
with sepia-toned loving
Love is the answer
at least for most of the questions in my heart, like
Why are we here? And where do we go?
And how come it's so hard?
It's not always easy and
sometimes life can be deceiving
I'll tell you one thing, it's always better when we're together

Mmmm, It's always better when we're together
Yeah we'll look at the stars and we're together
Well, it's always better when we're together
Yeah it's always better when we're together

And all of these moments
just might find their way into my dreams tonight,
But I know that they’ll be gone
when the morning light sings
and brings new things
for tomorrow night you see
that they’ll be gone too,
too many things I have to do
But if all of these dreams might find their way
into my day to day scene
I'd be under the impression
i was somewhere in between
With only two,
Just me and you,
Not so many things we got to do
or places we got to be
We'll sit beneath the mango tree, now,

Yeah It's always better when we're together
Mmmm, we're somewhere in between together
Well, it's always better when we're together
Yeah, it's always better when we're together

[MmmMmmmmMmm, Mmm MMmmM]

I believe in memories
they look so, so pretty when I sleep
Hey now, and when I wake up,
you look so pretty sleeping next to me
But there is not enough time,
There is no, no song I could sing
and there is no combination of words I could say
but I will still tell you one thing
We're Better together

If they tell me that the bees
Don't make honey anymore
Then what am I supposed to tell you
And if they tell me that the ocean
Is tired of her shores
Then tell me
What am I supposed to tell you

When I can't tell you anything
But the truth

When I can't tell you anything
But the truth

What happens to an eagle's nest in a storm
How does the mama
Keep the baby warm
What if the wind
Is telling us that its time
And what if we're not ready to fly

I can't tell you anything
But the truth
I can't tell you anything
But the truth

Tree tops they touch the ground
In the morning walk with no sound
Hear no birds, hear no planes
Through the mud, feel the clay
Build it up, make it sing

But I can't tell you anything
But the truth

Buth I can't tell you anything
But the truth

What is this place
Who am I
Why did we come here

I don't know I don't know
But I don't know
That we're meant to know

I don't know I don't know
But I don't know
That we're meant to know

Are they laughing at or with me?
Aww, baby, those are such great shoes
I think that I'm so happy now
And I think this is a bitter you
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, ooooh
Are they laughing at or with me?
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, ooooh
Why can't we just say what we mean?

People are just trying to fit in
But is this something telling you?
You can't just anyone in this town
Aww, baby, those are such great shoes
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, ooooh
Are they laughing at or with me?
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, ooooh
Why can't we just say what we mean?

Don't put your money where your mouth is, baby
We don't wanna see you choke
Nobody's choking around here anymore
Nobody's broken any high score
No dancing shoes will touch this dusty floors
For such a long, long time
For such a long, long time
For such a long time

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, ooooh
Are they laughing at or with me?
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, ooooh
Why can't we just say what we mean?

Ooh, ooh, ooh, oooooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh [4x]

There is no combination
of words
I could put on the back
of a postcard
And no song that
I could sing but
I can try for
your heart
Our dreams and they
are made out of real things
Like a shoebox of
photographs with sepia tone
loving
Love is the answer
At least for most of
the questions in my heart
Why are we here and
where do we go
And how come it's so hard
It's not always easy and
sometimes life can be
deceiving
I'll tell you one thing
It's always
better when we're together
Mmm it's always

together
Yeah we'll
look at the stars when
we're together
Well it's always
better when we're together
Yeah it's always
better when we're together

And all of these moments
just might find a way
into my dreams tonight

I hope this old train breaks down
Then I could take a walk around
And, see what there is to see
And time is just a melody
All the people in the street
Walk as fast as their feet can take them
I just roam through town
And though my windows got a view
The frame i'm looking through
Seems to have no concern for me now
So for now

I need this here
Old train to breakdown
Oh please just
Let me please breakdown

This engine screams out loud
Sayin the beat gunna crawl westbound
So I don't even make a sound
Cause it's gunna sting me when I leave this town
All the people in the street
That i`ll never get to meet
If these don't bend somehow
And I got no time
That I got to get to
Where I don't need to be
So I

I need this here
Old train to breakdown
Oh please just
Let me please breakdown

I need this here
Old train to breakdown
Oh please just
Let me please breakdown
I wanna break on down
But I can't stop now
Let me break on down

But you can't stop nothing
If you got no control
Of the thoughts in your mind
That you kept in, you know
You don't know nothing
But you don't need to know
The wisdoms in the trees
Not the glass windows
You can't stop wishing
If you dont let go
But things that you find
And you lose, and you know
You keep on rolling
Put the moment on hold
The frames too bright
So put the blinds down low

I need this here
Old train to breakdown
Oh please just
Let me please breakdown
I need this here
Old train to breakdown
Oh please just
Let me please breakdown
I wanna break on down
But I can't stop now

I hope this old train breaks down
Then I could take a walk around
And, see what there is to see
And time is just a melody
All the people in the street
Walk as fast as their feet can take them
I just roam through town
And though my windows got a view

That you kept in, you know
You don't know nothing
But you don't need to know
The wisdoms in the trees
Not the glass windows
You can't stop wishing
If you dont let go
But things that you find
And you lose, and you know
You keep on rolling
Put the moment on hold
The frames too bright
So put the blinds down low

I need this here
Old train to breakdown
Oh please just
Let me please breakdown
I need this here
Old train to breakdown
Oh please just
Let me please breakdown
I wanna break on down
But I can't stop now

I hope this old train breaks down
then I could take a walk around
See what there is to see
time is just a melody with all the
people in the street
walking fast as their feet
Can take them
I just roll through town
And though my window's got a view
well the frame I'm looking through
Seems to have no concern for now
So for now I
I need this here
old train to breakdown
Oh please just
let me please just breakdown

Well this engine screams out loud
centipede going to craw
l westbound
So I don't even make a sound cause
it's going to sting me when I
leave this town And all the
people in the street
that I'll never get to meet
If these tracks don't bend somehow
And I got no time that I
I got to get to
where I don't need to be
So I
I need this here
old train to breakdown
Oh please just
let me please just breakdown
I need this here
old train to breakdown
Oh please just
let me please just breakdown
I want to break on down
But I can't stop now
Let me break on down
But you can't stop nothing
if you got no control
Of the thoughts in your mind
that you kept and you know
That you don't know nothing
but you don't need to know
The wisdom's in the trees
not the glass windows
You can't stop wishing
if you don't let go
the things that you find and you
lose and you know
You keep on rolling
put the moment on hold
frame's too bright
so put the blinds down low
I need this here
old train to breakdown
Oh please just
let me please just breakdown
I need this here
old train to breakdown
Oh please just
let me please just breakdown

I got to break on down

But I can't stop now

With everything ahead of us
We left everything behind
But nothing that we needed
At least not at this time
And now the feeling that I'm feeling
Well it's feeling like my life is finally mine
With nothing to go back to we just continue to drive
Without you I was broken
But I'd rather be broke down with you by my side
I didn't know what I was looking for
So I didn't know what I'd find
I didn't know what I was missing
I guess you've been just a little too kind
And if I find just what I need
I'll put a little peace in my mind
Maybe you've been looking too
Or maybe you don't even need to try
Without you I was broken
But I'd rather be broke down with you by my side
With everything in the past
Fading faster and faster until it was gone
Found out I was losing so much more than I knew all along
Because everything I've been working for
Was only worth nickels and dimes
But if I had a minute for every hour that I've wasted
I'd be rich in time, I'd be doing fine
Without you I was broken
But I'd rather be broke down with you by my side

It's as simple as something that
nobody knows that her eyes are as big
As her bubbly toes
On the feet of a queen of the hearts
of the cards and her feet are all
Covered with tar balls and scars
It's as common as something that
nobody knows that her beauty will
Follow wherever she goes
Up the hill in the back of her
house in the would
she love me forever
I know she could
I remember when you and me mmm
how we used to be just good friends
Wouldn't give me none
But all I wanted was some

She's got a whole lot of reasons
She cant think of a single one
That can justify leaving
And he got none but he thinks
he got so many problems
Man he got
too much time to waste
His dreams are like commercials
But her dreams are picture perfect
and
Our dreams are so related
though they're often underestimated
It's as simple as something that
nobody knows that
Her eyes are as big as
her bubbly toes
On the feet of the queen
of the hearts of the cards
And her feet are infested
with tar balls and

Well I was eating lunch at the
D L G
When this little girl came and
she sat next to me
I never seen nobody move the
way she did
Well she did and she does and
she'll do it again
When you move like a jellyfish
Rhythm don't mean nothing
You go with the flow
You don't stop
Move like a jellyfish
Rhythm is nothing
You go with the flow
You don't stop
It's as common as something that
nobody knows it
Her beauty will follow
wherever she goes
Up the hill in the back
of her house in the wood
She'll love me forever
I know she

If you would only listen
You might just realize
what you're missing
you're missing me

Well based on your smile
I'm betting all of this
Might be over soon
But your bound to win
Cause if I'm betting against you
I think I'd rather lose
But this is all that I have

So please
Take what's left of this heart and use
Please use only what you really need
You know I only have so little
So please
Mend your broken heart and leave

I know it's not your style
I can tell by the way that you move
It's real, real soon
But I'm on your side
And I don't want to be your regret
I'd rather be your cocoon
But this is all that you have

So please
Let me take what's left of your heart and I will use
I swear I'll use only what I need
I know you only have so little
So please
Let me mend my broken heart and

You said this was all you had
And it's all I need
But blah blah blah
Because it fell apart and
I guess it's all you knew
And all I have
But now we have
Only confused hearts and
I guess all we have
Is really all we need

So please
Let's take these broken hearts and use
Let's use only what we really need
You know we only have so little
So please
Take these broken hearts and leave

The light was leaving in
the west it was blue
The children's laughter sang
and skipping just like the
stones they threw
the voices echoed across the way
its getting late
It was just another night
with the sun set
and the moon rise not so far behind
to give us just enough light
to lay down underneath the stars
listen to papas translations
of the stories across the sky
we drew our own constellations

The west winds often last too long
the wind may calm down
nothing ever feels the same
Sheltered under the Kamani tree
waiting for the passing rain
clouds keep moving to uncover
the scene stars above are
chasing the day away to find the
stories that we sometimes need
Listen close enough
all else fades fades away

I would turn on the TV, but it's so embarrassing
To see all the other people, I don't know what they mean
And it was magic at first, when they spoke without sound
But now this world is gonna hurt, you better turn that thing down, turn it around

"It wasn't me", says the boy with the gun
"Sure I pulled the trigger, but it needed to be done
Because life's been killing me ever since it begun
You can't blame me because I'm too young"

"You can't blame me, sure the killer was my son
But I didn't teach him to pull the trigger of the gun
It's the killing on this TV screen
You can't blame me, its those images he seen"

"You can't blame me", says the media man
"I wasn't the one who came up with the plan
I just point my camera at what the people want to see
It's a two way mirror and you can't blame me"

"You can't blame me", says the singer of the song
Or the maker of the movie which he based his life on
"It's only entertainment and as anyone can see
It's smoke machines and makeup, you can't fool me"

It was you, it was me, it was every man
We've all got the blood on our hands
We only receive what we demand
And if we want hell then hell's what we'll have

I would turn on the TV, but it's so embarrassing
To see all the other people, don't know what they mean
And it was magic at first, but let everyone down
And now this world is gonna hurt, you better turn it around

It's such a tired game
Will it ever stop
How will this all play out
Upside out of my mouth
By now we should know how to
communicate Instead of coming
to blows We're on a roll
And there ain't no stopping us now
We're burning under control
Isn't it strange how we're all
Burning under the same sun
Buy now and save it's a war for
peace It's the same old game
But do we really want to play
We could close our eyes
it's still there
We could say it's us agaisnt them
We could try but nobody wins
Gravity has got all hold on us all
We could try to put it out
But it's a glowing flame
Using fear as fuel
Burning down our name
And it won't take too long
Words all burn the same
And who are we going to blame now
It's such a crying
crying crying shame
It's such a crying
crying crying shame
It's such a crying
crying crying shame shame shame

But now it's beginning to show
A number of people are numbers
that ain't coming home
I could close my eyes it's still
there Close my mind be alone
I could close my heart and not care
But gravity has got a hold on us all
It's a terrific price to pay
But in the true sense of the word
Are we using what we've learned
In the true sense of the word
Are we losing what we were
It's such a tired game
Will it ever stop
It's not for me to say
Is it in our blood
Or is just our fate
And how will this all play out
Upside out of my mouth
Who are we going to blame all in all
It's such a crying
crying crying shame
It's such a crying
crying crying shame
It's such a crying
crying crying shame shame shame

how many times must we go through this
you've always been mine,
woman i thought you knew this
how many times must we go through this
you'll always be mine,
cupid only misses sometimes
but we could end up broken hearted
if we don't remember why all this started
and if they try to tell you love fades with time
tell them there's no such thing as time
it's our time....

Do You Remember I sure do
It was some time
in early September
though you were lazy about it
you made me wait around
I was so crazy about you
I didn't mind
So I was late for class
I looked my bike to yours
It wasn't hard to find
your painted flowers oh
guess that I was afraid
That if you rode away
you might not roll back
my direction real soon
Well I was crazy about you then
and now the craziest thing of all
over 10 years have gone by
and your still mine
locked in time
lets rewind
Do you remember
when we first moved in together
the piano took up the living room
You'd play me boogie woogie
I played you love songs
you'd say we're playing house
now you still say we are
we build our get away
up in a tree we found
we felt so far away
though we were still in town
I remember watching
that old tree burn down
I took a picture that
I don't like to look at
Well all these times
they come and go
Along don't seem so long
over 10 years have gone by
we cant rewind
we're looked in time
but your still mine
Do you remember?

I sure do, it was some time in early September
You were lazy about it, you made me wait around
I was so crazy about you I didn’t mind

So I was late for class, I locked my bike to yours
It wasn’t hard to find, you painted flowers on it
I guess that I was afraid that if you rolled away
You might not roll back my direction real soon

Well I was crazy about you then and now
The craziest thing of all is over ten years have gone by
And you’re still mine, we’re locked in time
Let’s Rewind

Do you remember when we first moved in together?
The piano took up the living room
You played me boogie-woogie I played you love songs
You’d say we’re playing house now you still say we are

We built our getaway up in a tree we found
We felt so far away but we were still in town
Now I remember watching that old tree burn down
I took a picture that I don’t like to look at

Well all these times they come and go
And alone don’t seem so long
Over ten years have gone by
We can’t rewind, we’re locked in time
But you’re still mine
Do you remember?

she's just waiting for the summertime
when the weather's fine
and she could hitch a ride out of town
and so far away
from that low down good for nothing
mistake making fool with excuses like
baby that was a long time a go
but that's just a euphemism
if you want the truth he was out of control
but a short time is a long time
when your mind just won't let go
- 간 주 중 -
well summertime came along
and then it was gone
and so was she but not from him
because he followed her just to let her know
her dreams are dreams
all this livin is so much harder that it seems
but girl don't let your dreams be dreams
you know this living is not so hard as it seems
dont let your dreams be dreams ...
be dreams ...

After we spoke I had a dream that I broke
The teeth from a mouth of a snake
That I choked on the teeth
They were mine all along

I picked up the pieces when I woke
Put them in a boat made of things that I don`t want to see
I blew on the sail
Watched it drift out to sea
The further it drifted the closer it came to me
I can`t explain

So I took it apart in a billion boxes
There was only one thing
You might think I`m your enemy
But that don`t make you mine
And all I have now is above thee
I wish that you`d stop trying
Oh, please stop lying
Stop la la la la la la la
La la la la la...
The hatred in the box then I locked
The strongest one I knew
I buried it all, grew a tree without thorns
Sat beneath the shade
You might think I`m your enemy
But that don`t make you mine
And all I have now is above thee
I wish that you`d stop trying
Oh please stop lying
Please stop la la la la la la
La la la la la...
La la la la la...

and by the way
you now that hope will make you strange
make you blink make you blank make you sink
it will make you afraid of change
and often blame
the box with the view of the world
and the ones that fill the frame
i turn it up then i turn it off
because i can't stand when they start to talk
about the hurting and killing
whose shoes are we filling
the damage and ruin
man the things that we're doing
we gotta stop, we gotta turn it all off
we gotta rewind and start it up again
because we fell across the fall line
ain't there nothing sacred any more
somebody saw him jump
but nobody saw him slip
i guess he lost a lot of hope
and then he lost his grip
now he's lying in the freeway
in the middle of this mess
guess we lost another one
optimistic hypocrite
that didn't habe the nerve to quit
the things that kept him wanting more
until he finally reached the core
he fell across the fall line
ain't there nothing sacred any more

I know she said it's alright
But you can make it up next time
I know she knows it's not right
There ain't no use in lying
Maybe she thinks I know something
Maybe maybe she thinks its fine
Maybe she knows something I don't
I'm so, I'm so tired,
I'm so tired of trying
It seems to me that maybe,
It pretty much always means no
So don't tell me you might
just let it go
And often times we're lazy
It seems to stand in my way
Cause no one no not no one
Likes to be let down
I know she loves the sunrise
No longer sees it
with her sleeping eyes
And I know that when she said
she's gonna try
Well it might not work
because of other ties and
I know she usually
has some other ties
And I wouldn't want to break'em,
nah, I wouldn't
want to break 'em
Maybe she'll help me
to untie this but
Until then well,
I'm gonna have to lie too

The harder that you try baby,
the further you'll fall
Even with all the money in the
whole wide world
Please please please don't pass me
Please please please don't pass me
Please please please
don't pass me by
Everything you know about me now
baby you gonna have to change
You gonna call it
by a brand new name
Please please please don't drag me
Please please please don't drag me
Please please please
don't drag me down
Just like a tree down by the
water baby I shall not move
Even after all the silly
things you do
Please please please don't drag me

It pretty much always means no
So don't tell me you
might just let it go
The harder that you try baby,
the further you'll fall
Even with all the money in the
whole wide world
Please please please don't pass me
Please please please don't pass me
Please please please
don't pass me by
Everything you know about me now
baby you gonna have to change
You gonna call it
by a brand new name
Please please please don't drag me
Please please please don't drag me
Please please please
don't drag me down
Just like a tree down by the
water baby I shall not move
Even after all the silly
things you do
Please please please don't drag me
Please please please don't drag me
Please please please
don't drag me down

Oh, you're such a pretty thing, I'll take you and I'll make you all mine.

I will steal you from this patient world that'll chase us, it could never take you back.

[Chorus]
We could watch it from the clouds
We can't stop it anyhow, it's not ours.
We could watch it from the clouds
We can't stop it anyhow, it's not ours.
It's not ours.

And I know you know me well enough to know I'm lucky to have you.
But all this just the little things, the words that I should tell you all the time.
You're so sweet to me when you beat me in doubles solitaire.
You're so sweet to me in a world that's not always fair.

[Chorus]
We could watch it from the clouds
We can't stop it anyhow, it's not ours.
We could watch it from the clouds
We can't stop it anyhow, it's not ours.

More that you feel
More your little heart will ache.
Love's the only thing that carries on
It's the only thing this world can't take.
This love is ours.
This love is ours.
This love is oooohoohoohoohoohoohoohooh.
This love is oooohoohoohoohoohoohoohooh.

In my rear view
I watch you watching the twilight
Behind the telephone lines
With nothing to prove, or to assume
Just thinking that your thoughts are different than mine
In my rear view
I watch you
And I gave you your life, would you give me mine

I see you slowly swim away
Cause the light is leaving town
To a place that I can’t be
But there’s no apologies

Just go on
Just go on
There’s still so many things
I wanna say to you
But go on
Just go on
We’re bound by blood that’s moving
From the moment that we start
From the moment that we start

I see your perfect little lies
Watch the shadows of the clouds
And the surface of the ocean out the window of a plane
I get nervous when I fly
I’m used to walking with my feet

Turbulence is like a sigh that I can’t help but over think

What is the purpose of my life
If it doesn’t ever do
With learning to let it go
Live vicariously through
You could do the same
It’s the least you could do
Cause it’s a lonely little chain
If you don’t add to it

So go on
Just go on
There’s still so many things
I wanna say to you
But go on
Just go on
We’re bound by blood and love
From the moment that we start
Just go on
Just go on
There’s still so many things
I wanna say to you
Just go on
Just go on
We’re bound by blood that’s moving
From the moment that we start
From the moment that we start

In my rear view
I watch you watching the twilight
Behind the telephone lines
With nothing to prove, or to assume
Just thinking that your thoughts are different than mine
In my rear view
I watch you
And I gave you your life, would you give me mine

I see you slowly swim away
Cause the light is leaving town
To a place that I can’t be
But there’s no apologies

Just go on
Just go on
There’s still so many things
I wanna say to you
But go on
Just go on
We’re bound by blood that’s moving
From the moment that we start
From the moment that we start

I see your perfect little lies
Watch the shadows of the clouds
And the surface of the ocean out the window of a plane

I’m used to walking with my feet

Just go on
Just go on
We’re bound by blood that’s moving
From the moment that we start
From the moment that we start

Well look at all those fancy clothes
But these could keep us warm
Just like those.
And what about your soul
Is it cold
Is it straight from the mold
And ready to be sold.
And cars and phones and diamond rings
Bling, bling
Those are only removable things
And what about your mind
Does it shine
Or are there things that concern you more
Than your time
Gone going
Gone everything
Gone give a damn
Gone be the birds when they dont want to sing
Gone people
All awkward with their things
Gone
Well look at you out to make a deal
You try to be appealing but you lose youre appeal
And what about those shoes youre in today
Theyll do no good
All the bridges you burnt a long the way
Youre willing to sell anything
Gone with your herd
Leave your footprints
And well shame them with our words
Gone people
All careless and consumed
Gone
Gone going
Gone everything
Gone give a damn
Gone be the birds when they dont want to sing
Gone people
All awkward with their things
Gone

You win
Its your show, now
So whats it gunna be
Cause people
Will tune in
How many train wrecks do we need to see?
Before we lose touch of
We thought this was low
It`s bad gettin worse so

[Chorus:]
Whered all the good people go
Ive been changin channels
I dont see them on the tv shows
Whered all the good people go
We got heaps and heaps of what we sow

They got this and that and
With a rattle a tat
Testing one two,
Now whatcha gunna do?
Bad news, misused,
Got too much to lose
Gimme some truth
Now whos side are we on?
Whatever you say
Turn on the boob tube
Im in the mood to obey
So lead me astray by the way, now

Where`d all the good people go?
I`ve been changin channels
I dont see them on the tv shows
Whered all the good people go
We got heaps and heaps of what we sow

Sitting round feeling far away
So far away but I can feel the debris
Can you feel it?
Yo interrupt me from a friendly conversation
To tell me how great its all gunna be
You might notice some hesitation
Cause whats important to you is not important to me
Way down by the edge of your reasons
Its beginning to show
And all I wanna know is..

Whered all the good people go
Ive been changin channels
I dont see them on the tv shows
Whered all the good people go
We got heaps and heaps of what we sow

They got this and that
With a rattle a tat
Testing one, two
Now what you gonna do?
Bad news, misused, gimme some truth
You got too much to lose
Whose side are we on?
Whatever you say
Run the resolut but in the mood to obey
Station to station desensitizing the nation

You win
Its your show, now
So whats it gunna be

The air was more than human
And the geat was more than hungry
And the cars were square and spitting diesel fumes

The bulls were running wild
Because their big and mean and sacred
And the children were playing cricket with no shoes

The next morning we woke a man with a seven hour drive
Well there we were stuck in port Blaire
Where boats break and children stare
And there were so many fewer questions
When stars were still just the holes to heaven
Mmhmm
And there were so many fewer questions
When stars were still just the holes to heaven
Mmhmm

Officials work while friendly
Once we drown them with our sweet talk
And we bribe them with our cigarettes and booze

Disembarking from the port
With no mistakes of any sort
Moving soundly engine running smooth

The next morning we woke a man with the sunrese to the right
Moving back north to port Blaire
Where boats break and children stare
And there were so many fewer questions
When stars were still just the holes to heaven
Mmhmm
Yes and there were so many fewer questions
When stars were still just the holes to heaven
Mmhmm

Shadow walks faster than you
You don′t really know
what to do
Do you think that you′re
not alone
You really think
that you are immune to
Its gonna get the
best of you
Its gonna lift you
up and let you down
It will defeat you then
teach you to get back up
After it takes all
that You learn to love
Your reflection is a blur
Out of focus
But in confusion
The frames are suddenly burnt
And the end of a
roll of illusion
A ghost waiting it′s turn
Now I can see right through
It′s a warning that
nobody heard
It will teach you to love
what you′re afraid of
After it takes away all
that You learn to love
But you don′t Always
Have to hold your head
Higher than your heart
You better
hope you′re not alone
You better
hope you′re not alone
You better

You better

You better
hope you′re not alone
You better

You better

You better be
hoping you′re not so
Hope you′re not alone
Your Your echo comes back
out of tune
Now you can probably get
used to Reverb is just a room
The problem is that
there′s no truth
It fading a way too soon
The shadow is on the move
And maybe you should be
moving too
Before it takes away all
that you learned to love
It will defeat you
then teach you get back up
Cause you don′t Always
Have to hold your head
Higher than your heart
You better
hope you′re not alone
You better
hope you′re not alone
You better
hope you′re not alone
You better be
hoping you′re not alone
