A single star behind me
A red sky burns ahead A lonely light below me Awake among the dead An overwhelming feeling Leaves me numb and strange A sense of new beginning I sense a wind of change Out with the old useless People so cold ruthless Welcome in a new millennium How many times must I Live out this nightmare I Can't wait until a new millennium I've got this feeling The tide is turning now baby Funny feeling Everything's gonna be alright now Living out a constant deja vu Keep your head up Please be patient we will get to you Keep your head up Just have some faith and you can see it through Keep your head up But faith don't pay the rent that's overdue Keep your head up All that's glittering is turning blue Keep your head up What they want from me ain't gotta clue Keep your head up Swallow pride before it swallows you Keep your head up Don't dare bite the hand that's starving you Keep your head up How can you keep your head And not go insane When the only light at the end Of the tunnel is another train Lies ten feet tall Have broken my fall Welcome you all new millennium It's well overdue And I can't wait to Welcome in a new millennium I've got this feeling [This section is repeated 3 times.] The tide is turning now baby Funny feeling Everything's gonna be alright now |

Being round you is driving me crazy
Watching you run is making me lazy You're trying to buy a place in my head Telling me lines I've already read Speaking my name to try to confuse me Say it again you're starting to lose me That's alright I'm okay It happens every single day It's all the same But I'm not blind It's all about you not me It's all about the things That you're expecting me to be There's not enough time to live And all that you're expecting me to give It's all about you not me It's all about you not me You're building my prison brick by brick Eating your words is making me sick You get what you want Cause nothing is sacred You're reading my mind And leaving me naked You say I gotta give before I receive it One of these days I'll believe it. It's all about you not me It's all about the things That you're expecting me to be There's not enough time to live And all that you're expecting me to give It's all about you not me It's all about you not me That's alright I'm okay It happens every single day It's all the same But I'm not blind It's all about you not me It's all about the things That you're expecting me to be There's not enough time to live And all that you're expecting me to give It's all about you not me It's all about you not me It's all about you not me |

There, there it is
I swear he's gonna murder that poor kid Wait, I hear it again Don't turn on the lights until we Hear the way it ends Under Peruvian skies Vanessa regretfully waits The story unfolds in her eyes Where midnight hysteria's No big surprise Battered and bruised Always confusing The love that she's losing for hate Poor Vanessa Poor, poor Vanessa Hey, I hope you know I'm taking all of this with me when I go Shame, you're not to blame I'm the monster you created In your daddy's name Under Peruvian skies Vanessa regretfully waits The story unfolds in her eyes Where midnight hysteria's No big surprise Battered and bruised Always confusing The love that she's losing for hate Poor Vanessa Poor Vanessa Terror by night Liar by day Telling her secrets Won't take them away Under Peruvian skies Vanessa regretfully waits The story unfolds in her eyes Where midnight hysteria's No big surprise Battered and bruised Always confusing The love that she's losing for hate |

He's just the kind of man
You hear about Who leaves his family for An easy out They never saw the signs He never said a word He couldn't take another day Carry me to the shoreline Bury me in the sand Walk me across the water And maybe you'll understand Once the stone You're crawling under Is lifted off your shoulders Once the cloud that's raining Over your head disappears The noise that you'll hear Is the crashing down of Hollow Years She's not the kind of girl You hear about She'll never want another She'll never be without She'll give you all the signs She'll tell you everything Then turn around and walk away Once the stone You're crawling under Is lifted off your shoulders Once the cloud that's raining Over your head disappears The noise that you'll hear Is the crashing down of Hollow Years Carry me to the shoreline Bury me in the sand Walk me across the water And maybe you'll understand Once the stone You're crawling under Is lifted off your shoulders Once the cloud that's raining Over your head disappears The noise that you'll hear Is the crashing down of Hollow Years |

A thorn in my side, a chip on my shoulder
A lump in my throat, the size of a boulder The chill up my spine, can't get any colder And you wonder why I can't smile A knot in my gut, an ape on my back In the heat of the moment I'm knocked off the track You drop the ball, I pick up the slack And you ask me why my hair's gray Twisting, turning Losing all sense of yearning Living and learning The pressure keeps on burning my soul Burning my soul Burning my soul I say it's green and then you tell me it's red Keep your thoughts and ideas Locked inside of your head We've got someone Who can think for you instead And he sounds just like the last one Twisting, turning Losing all sense of yearning Living and learning The pressure keeps on burning my soul Burning my soul Burning my soul Burning my soul Burning my soul Responsible thinkers Throw caution to the wind But I find myself Speaking from within I can't live my life Walking on eggshells To stay on your good side Using your words Controlling my life Can't you see it's my words That gives you your life So I hurt your feelings Well I'm really sorry But I don't give a shit, no... Twisting, turning Losing all sense of yearning Living and learning The pressure keeps on burning my soul Burning my soul Burning my soul Burning my soul Burning my soul Burning my soul Burning my soul, yeah |

Sometimes, for a moment of bliss
And the passion, we're craving There's a message we miss Sometimes when, the spirits left alone We must believe in something To find if we've grown Tragic reflex, shattered calm Static progress, senses gone Numb awareness, final psalm Swept away with the tide (Swept away with the tide) Through the holes in my hands (Through the holes in my hands) Crown of thorns at my side (Crown of thorns at my side, yeah, yeah, yeah) Drawing lines in the sand Sometimes, if you're perfectly still You can hear the virgin weeping For the savior of your will Sometimes, your castles in the air And the fantasies you're seeking Are the crosses you bear Sacred conflict, blessed prize Weeping crosses, stainless eyes Desperate addict, faith disguised Swept away with the tide (Swept away with the tide) Through the holes in my hands (Through the holes in my hands, yeah) Crown of thorns at my side (Crown of thorns at my side) Drawing lines in the sand We fabricate our demons Invite them into our homes Have supper with the aliens And fight the war alone We conjure up our skeletons Enlist the den of thieves Frightened from our closets Then sewn upon our sleeves In the stream of consciousness There is a river crying Living comes much easier Once we admit We're dying Sometimes, in the wreckage of our wake There's a bitterness we harbor And hate for hatred's sake Sometimes we dig an early grave And crucify our instincts For the hope we couldn't save Sometimes a view from sinless eyes Centers our perspective And pacifies our cries Sometimes the anguish we survive And the mysteries we nurture Are the fabrics of our lives Swept away with the tide (Swept away with the tide, yeah) Through the holes in my hands (Through the holes, holes in my hands) Crown of thorns at my side (Crown of thorns in my side) Drawing lines in the sand |

I was sitting on the edge of his bed
Staring at the headlines on the paper He said, 'Look at poor Gene Kelly I guess he won't be singing in the rain.' You can take away my heroes Can you take away my pain Take away my pain Leave the cold outside Please don't let it rain Don't stumble on my pride Take away my pain I'm not frightened anymore Just stay with me tonight I'm tired of this fight Soon I'll be knocking at your door She was standing by the edge of his bed Staring at the message on their faces He said, 'What else can you do, babe? I guess I won't be coming home again.' They just took away all my promises Make them take away my pain Take away my pain Leave the cold outside Please don't let it rain Don't stumble on my pride Take away my pain I'm not frightened anymore Just stay with me tonight I'm tired of this fight Soon I'll be knocking at your door His final scene The actor bows And all those years Are gone somehow The crowd applauds The curtain falls I was standing by the edge of the water I noticed my reflection in the waves Then I saw you looking back at me And I knew that for a moment You were calling out my name You took away my hero Will you take away my pain Take away my pain Let the cold inside It's time to let it rain There's nothing left to hide Take away my pain I'm not frightened anymore I'm learning to survive Without you in my life Til you come knocking at my door... |

Helpless child
They invite your hands to fill their needs Will you be the same Shameless smile To steal from you the innocence that bleeds Will they feel your pain Trying to believe The scars unseen The tears wash clean You don't wanna breathe the air you breathe You don't know how you'll live a life alone She keeps holding on Holding on to you Let her breathe the air Don't wanna be alone Where do you belong Anna Lee Behind those eyes A vivid scene A lucid dream within Questioned secrets are revealed And every time You can't deny The lines that trace your skin Wounds that never heal Trying to believe The scars unseen The tears wash clean You don't wanna breathe the air you breathe You don't know how you'll live a life alone She keeps holding on Holding on to you Let her breathe the air Don't wanna be alone Where do you belong Anna Lee And now she's calling out a name Can't keep on hiding all her pain You feel the rain move in As you begin To turn and answer the call Trying to believe The scars unseen The tears wash clean You don't wanna breathe the air you breathe You don't know how you'll live a life alone She keeps holding on Holding on to you Let her breathe the air Don't wanna be alone Where do you belong Anna Lee |

It's Raining
Under the sun, there is nothing to hide Under the moon, a stranger waits inside People disappear The music fades away Splashing through the rain I'll dream with them one day It's raining, raining, On the streets of New York City It's raining, raining, raining, deep in heaven I may have wasted all those years They're not worth their time in tears I may have spent too long in darkness In the warmth of my fears Take a look at yourself Not at anyone else And tell me what you see I know the air is cold I know the streets are cruel But I'll enjoy the ride today It's raining, raining, On the streets of New York City It's raining, raining, raining deep in heaven Raining deep in heaven I may have wasted all those years They're not worth their time in tears I may have spent too long in darkness In the warmth of my fears As I walk through all my myths Rising and sinking like the waves With my thoughts wrapped around me Through a trial of tears Hidden by disguise, stumbling in a world Feeling uninspired, he gets into his car Not within his eyes to see, open up, open up Not much better than the man you hate Deep In Heaven (instrumental) The Wasteland Still awake I continue to move along Cultivating my own nonsense Welcome to the wasteland Where you'll find ashes, nothing but ashes Still awake Bringing change, bringing movement, bringing life A silent prayer thrown away, Disappearing in the air Rising, sinking, raining deep inside me Nowhere to turn, I look for a way back home It's raining, raining, raining deep in heaven It's raining, raining, raining deep in heaven It's raining, raining, raining deep in heaven It's raining, raining, raining deep in heaven |
