God grant me the serenity to accept
the things I can not change Courage to change the things I can And the wisdom to know the difference I am not like I was before I thought that nothing would change me I was not listening anymore Still you continued to affect me I was not thinking anymore Although I said I still was I'd said "I don't want anymore" Because of bad experience But now I feel so different I feel so different I feel so different I have not seen freedom before And I did not expect to Don't let me forget now I'm here Help me to help you to behold you I started off with many friends And we spent a long time talking I thought they meant every word they said But like everyone else they were stalling And now they seem so different They seem so different They seem so different I should have hatred for you But I do not have any And I have always loved you Oh you have taught me plenty The whole time I'd never seen All you had spread before me The whole time I'd never seen All I'd need was inside me Now I feel so different I feel so different I feel so different I feel so different I feel so different |

I am stretched on your grave
And will lie there forever If your hands were in mine I'd be sure we'd not sever My apple tree my brightness It's time we were together For I smell of the earth And am worn by the weather When my family thinks That I'm safe in my bed From night until morning I am stretched at your head Calling out to the air With tears hot and wild My grief for the girl That I loved as a child Do you remember The night we were lost In the shade of the blackthorn And the chill of the frost Thanks be to Jesus We did what was right And your maiden head still Is your pillar of light The priests and the friars Approach me in dread Because I still love you My love and you're dead I still would be your shelter Through rain and through storm And with you in your cold grave I cannot sleep warm So I'm stretched on your grave And will lie there forever If you hands were in mine I'd be sure we'd not sever My apple tree my brightness It's time we were together For I smell of the earth And am worn by the weather |

Each of these
My three babies I will carry with me For myself I ask no one else will be Mother to these three And of course I'm like a wild horse But there's no other way I could be Water and feed Are not tools that I need For the thing that I've chosen to be In my soul My blood and my bones I have wrapped your cold bodies around me The face on you The smell of you Will always be with me Each of these My three babies I was not willing to leave Though I tried I blasphemed and denied I know they will be returned to me Each of these My babies Have brought you closer to me No longer mad like a horse I'm still wild but not lost From the thing that I've chosen to be And it's `cause you've thrilled me Silenced me Stilled me Proved things I never believed The face on you The smell of you Will always be with me Each of these My three babies I will carry with me For myself I ask no one else will be Mother to these three |

I will live by my own policies
I will sleep with a clear conscience I will sleep in peace Maybe it sounds mean But I really don't think so You asked for the truth and I told you And there's millions of people To offer advice and say how I should be But they're twisted And they will never be Maybe I was mean But I really don't think so You asked if I'm scared And I the emperor's new clothes The emperor's new clothes The emperor's new clothes The emperor's new clothes The emperor's new clothes Everyone can see what's going on They laugh `cause they know they're untouchable Not because what I said was wrong Everyone can see what's going on They laugh `cause they know they're untouchable Not because what I said was wrong Whatever it may bring I will live by my own policies I will sleep with a clear conscience I will sleep in peace Maybe it sounds mean But I really don't think so You asked for the truth and I told you Through their own words They will be exposed They've got a severe case of The emperor's new clothes The emperor's new clothes The emperor's new clothes The emperor's new clothes |

margret thatcher on t.v.
shocked by the deaths that took place in bejing it seems strange that she should be offended the same orders are given by her I've said this before now you said I was childish + you'll say it now "remember what I told you if they hated me they will hate you" england's not the mythical land of madame george + roses it's the home of police who kill black boys on mopeds and I love my boy + that's why I'm leaving I don't want him to be aware that there's any such thing as grieving young mother down at smithfield 5 am looking for food for her kids in her arms and the first word that they learned was "please" these are dangerous days to say what you feel is to dig your own grave "remember what I told you if you were of the world they would love you" england's not the mythical land of madame george + roses it's the home of police who kill blacks boys on mopeds and I love my boy + that's why I'm leaving I don't want him to be aware that there's any such thing as grieving |

ke a bird without a song
Nohing can stop these lonely tears from falling Tell me baby where did I go wrong I could put my arms around every boy I see But they'd only remind me of you I went to the doctor guess what he told me Guess what he told me He said girl you better try to have fun No matter what you do But he's a fool Cause nothing compares Nothing compares to you All the flowers that you planted, mama In the back yard All died when you went away I know that living with you baby was sometimes hard But I'm willing to give it another try Cause nothing compares Nothing compares to you Nothing compares Nothing compares to you Nothing compares Nothing compares to you |

the phone calls
always left me unsure they'd never say things of their own accord I am preoccupied I can't get them out of my mind they are terrified and if you said jump in the river I would because it would probably be a good idea you're not supposed to be here at all it's all been a gorgeous mistake sick one or clean one the best one that God ever made when I kissed you you didn't mind I thought I tasted of too many cigarettes but you tasted of wine and I'm not going to change my mind just because of what they said the worm has laid eggs in their hearts but not in my head (chorus) there's been days like t and i liked it all like the times we did it so hard there was blood of the wall and if you said jump in the river I would because it would probably be a good idea |

I'm full of good intentions
like I never was before it's too late for prevention but I don't think it's too late for the cure so you call in your minions see what you can find night time or morning these hands are sticky but I don't mind why must you always be around? why can't you just leave it be? it's done nothing so far but destroy my life you cause as much sorrow dead as you did when you were alive I never said I was though that was everyone else so you're a fool to attack me for the image that you built yourself it just sounds more vicious then I actually mean I really am soft tender + sweet why must you always be around? why can't you just leave me be? you've done nothing so far but destory my life you cause as much sorrow dead as you did when you were alive (repeat |

Think about my little girl
Her yellow skin and her dark curl And how her father's heart was frozen I spoke to her and I said: "You won't regret the mother you have chosen" I lied. Where's she tonight? I left him now we're apart And I think about his cruel heart And how his lies have left mine broken To think that I spoke to him then I said: "She won't regret the father she has chosen" I lied. Where's he tonight? You were precious to me After all I called you into being I wanted you to know that Yes, you were precious to me And I miss my little boy I strayed away, so far away And I need him tonight To feel his hands around my face His loving eyes His happy face Would be so right Once I sat in my husbands car Him in my arms, woke up and saw me crying My heart wouldn't work And this he did my special child He touched my face with his hand and smiled Oh boy, everything's all right Don't cry, everything's all right Don't cry, Jakes's here tonight Don't hide, Jake's here alive |

I?ll remember it
And Dublin in a rainstorm And sitting in the long grass in summer Keeping warm I?ll remember it Every restless night We were so young then We thought that everything We could possibly do were the right Then we moved Stolen from our very eyes And I wondered where you went to Tell me when did the light die You will rise You'll return The phoenix from the flame You will learn You will rise You'll return Being what you are There is no other Troy For you to burn And I never meant to hurt you I swear I didn't mean Those things I said I never meant to do that to you Next time I'll keep my hands to myself instead Oh, does she love you What do you want to do? Does she need you like I do? Do you love her? Is she good for you? Does she hold you like I do? Do you want me? Should I leave? I know you're always telling me That you love me Just sometimes I wonder If I should believe Oh, I love you God, I love you I'd kill a dragon for you I?ll die But I will rise And I will return The Phoenix from the flame I have learned I will rise And you'll see me return Being what I am There is no other Troy For me to burn And you should?ve left the light on You should?ve left the light on Then I wouldn't have tried And you'd never have known And I wouldn't have pulled you tighter No I wouldn't have pulled you close I wouldn't have screamed No I can't let you go And the door wasn't closed No I wouldn't have pulled you to me No I wouldn't have kissed your face You wouldn't have begged me to hold you If we hadn't been there in the first place Ah but I know you wanted me to be there oh oh Every look that you threw told me so But you should?ve left the light on You should?ve left the light on And the flames burned away But you're still spitting fire Make no difference what you say You're still a liar You're still a liar You're still a lawyer |
