You go crazy
You get tossed You go running around Until you know you're gonna fall off He knows what you need he, knows how much, how much you want Knock familiar, Welcome in, Can't believe that you let him introduce you as a friend. But you're always polite in case you need him again No not again, No not again. Can't believe the way I see you Run, Run, Run, Can't believe the way you bleed when you Run, Run, Run, Are you having fun? Run- Hands are shaking. Lips are cracked You swore (I heard you swear) that you were Never coming back, but... one more time. Just one more night and once again, you lost the fight fight So fight a little harder now. Can't believe the way you bleed when you Run, Run, Run Can't believe the way you need to Run, Run, Run Are you still as young as you started When you started to run? Can't believe the way I see you Run, Run, Run, Can't believe the way you bleed when you Run, Run, Run, Are you having fun? Run, Run, Run, 'till you drop. |

You don't believe in love
You don't believe in hatred Put your money in the bank It's the only way to save it You try to make a buck But you haven't made a penny You need a little luck But you know you won't get any You don't believe in God You don't believe in glory You've got a brother in the clinic Tells the same kind of story If he had another life He'd know what would be waiting If he had another soul He could sell it all to Satan You don't believe in war You don't believe in Jesus Got a sister in New York She knows how she pleases Walking the streets On the south side of the city Trying to make ends meet Isn't that a pity...for money |

Maybe it's just a phase
The days and the nights And the nights and days Of all the tossing and turning And churning and burning Inside my brain Or maybe I'm finally insane But I don't know what I believe anymore It's like I'm caught in some revolving door Going over and over And over and over and Teach me how to pray Tell me what to say Help me Help me Help me find my way I never could play their game You know that all your faces look the same And I won't give up Won't give in You know I never want to be like them Well, I'm ticking away like time You know I'm out of sync And I'm out of my mind You know I used to know a truth from a lie Just by looking in their eyes Carry me away Further and further And further every day Help me Help me Help me find my way I'm hanging by a thread And the waves of confusion Break down on my head And when I think of all the things you said Well, the words fall dead Higher every day A price I swore I'd never pay Help me Help me Help me find my way Help me find my way. |

Just until the morning comes I'm the gray and cloudy one Raining for so long, so long Like a candle blowing in a storm but you can Show me a ray Show me a ray Show me a ray Show me a ray of Sun. |

My eyes are jaded and complicated,
tired of the liars and the masqueraded Who steals our innocence away, like a thief in the night? Who took away our faith in what we know to be right? That was another world, then that was another time You can never go back to the scene of a perfect crime. Whatever became of the child I was I never want to lose her no I won't give her up and now my heart is harder, my skin is getting tougher and tougher That was another world then That was another time You can never go back to the place where love is blind You can never go back to the scene of a perfect crime Whatever became of our sweet blind love As long as we could be together it was more than enough Now we're all grown up and we need so much I never knew that the price would go up as such That was another world then, then That was another time Well you can never go back to the place where love is blind. Well you can never go back to the place where love is blind. Well you can never go back to the place where love is blind. You can never go back to the scene of a perfect crime. |

Well, outside in the hall there's a catfight
It's well after midnight I guess I'll be allright I'm laid out on the floor Drunk and ppor How much longer how much more Rock me to sleep Strong & deep. The screaming cats they give me the creep But aside from all that I feel no pain Staring up at the ceiling stains ...Neon in the window ...Sirens far away ...News on the radio happy birthday happy birthday happy birthday They're at it again next door This whole floor I swear They're out to drive me crazy Not right now I'm high as a cloud I'm soft and gray and lazy ..Smoking Out the window, ...feeling far away ...News on the radio happy birthday happy birthday happy birthday Fly me out the window. Somewhere far away News on the radio, Happy Birthday, Happy Birthday, Happy Birthday. Happy Birthday, Happy Birthday, Happy Birthday. |

The Little Conversation
Is Over Very Soon And I watch in admiration From my corner of the room. They shine on you with starry eyes... They rain a friendly storm. Like kids around a Christmas tree And then you smile all nice and warm The Little Conversations If I tried my very best you know I never could say anything In twenty words or less. Somewhere, sometime, down the line someday I may confess, and tell you all, that's all The Little Conversations On me are very rough They leave me all in pieces You know there's never time enough like a book with missing pages like a story incomplete like a painting left unfinished it feels like not enough to eat. Starvin' these little conversations well for me they'll never do now what am I supposed to do with broken sentences of you? i'll stay in my corner 'cause that's all that i can do and let the others speak for me. Little Conversations Are We. |

Today I went and bought myself a bottle
Like we used to do Reminded me of you Today I saw a train roll by the river Blowing off the steam Reminded me of me That's when I threw the bottle in the river That's when I started running for the train There's nothing that you need I can't deliver Carry me away Carry me away Make it seven-oh-nine California time Whoever said it was a small world was either a liar Or a fool 'Cause it's not true And any promise we make is as easy to break As the plastic people on your wedding cake So says you But you know, I do I hear you thinking From far away If you keep on lying and crying and trying and drinking I'm gonna carry me away Carry me away If you think about me From far away I hope you find it with me or without me Carry me away Carry me away Carry me away Carry me away Carry me away Carry me away. |
