Is this just another day?
This God forgotten place First comes love, then comes pain Let the games begin Questions rise and answers fall Insurmountable Love boat captain Take the reigns and steer us towards the clear, here It's already been sung, but it can't be said enough Is this just another phase Of earthquakes making waves? Trying to shake the cancer off Aah, stupid human beings Once you hold the hand of love It's all surmountable Hold me and make it the truth That when all is lost, there'll be you 'Cause to the universe I don't mean a thing And there's just one word I still believe And it's love It's an art to live with pain Mix the light into gray Lost nine friends we'll never know Two years ago today And if our lives became too long Would it add to our regret? And the young, they can lose hope 'Cause they can't see beyond today The wisdom that the old can't give away, hey Constant recall Sometimes life don't leave you alone Hold me and make it the truth That when all is lost, there will be you 'Cause to the universe I don't mean a thing And there's just one word that I still believe And it's love, love, love, love, love Love boat captain take the reigns Steer us towards the clear I know it's already been sung Can't be said enough Love is all you need All you need is love, love, love |

Know a man
His face seems pulled and tense Like he's riding on a motorbike In the strongest winds So I approach with tact Suggest that he should relax But he's always moving Much too fast Said he'll see me on the flip side On this trip he's taking for a ride He's been taking too much on There he goes with his perfectly unkempt clothes There he goes... He's yet to come back But I've seen his picture It doesn't look the same Up on the rack We go way back I wonder about his insides It's like his thoughts are too big for his size He's been taken Where I don't know Off he goes with his perfectly unkempt clothes There he goes And now I rub my eyes For he has returned Seems my preconceptions are what should have been burned For he still smiles And he's still strong Nothing's changed but the surrounding bullshit That has grown And now he's home And we're laughing like we always did My same old Same old friend Until a quarter-to-ten I saw the strain creep in He seems distracted And I know just what is going to happen then Before his first step He is off again |

I wish I was a sacrifice, but somehow still lived on I wish I was a sentimental ornament you hung on The Christmas tree, I wish I was the star that went on top I wish I was the evidence, I wish I was the grounds For 50 million hands upraised and open toward the sky I wish I was a sailor with someone who waited for me I wish I was as fortunate, as fortunate as me I wish I was a messenger and all the news was good I wish I was the full moon shining off your Camaro's hood I wish I was an alien at home behind the sun I wish I was the souvenir you kept your house key on I wish I was the pedal brake that you depended on I wish I was the verb 'to trust' and never let you down I wish I was a radio song, the one that you turned up I wish...

Once divided, nothing left to subtract
Some words when spoken can't be taken back Walks on his own with thoughts he can't help thinking Future's above, but in the past, he's slow and sinking Caught a bolt 'a lightning, cursed the day he let it go Nothingman Nothingman Isn't it something? Nothingman She once believed in every story he had to tell One day she stiffened, took the other side Empty stares from each corner of a shared prison cell One just escapes, one's left inside the well And he who forgets will be destined to remember Nothingman Nothingman Isn't it something? Nothingman Oh, she don't want him Oh, she won't feed him after he's flown away Oh, into the sun, ah, into the sun Burn, burn Nothingman Nothingman Isn't it something?

I know about a man to whom I may be related, he's leatherman.
Died a long time ago in the 1880's...leatherman, leatherman. Covered with leather, but it wasn't tight. Underneath the moon in the woods at night... Makin' the rounds ten miles a day, Once a month they'd spot him, here's what they'd say... "Here he comes, he's a man of the land. He's leatherman. Smile on his face, an axe in his pack. He's leatherman." Comes out of the caves once a day to be fed. Wasn't known to say but "Thanks for the bread." So modern day I walk my way, my jacket faded, Just like a man of leather whom I may be related. Rolled a cigarette, but when he asked for a light, I thought he'd be an animal, but so polite. Makin' the rounds ten miles a day. Once a month they'd spot him and here's what they'd say... "Here he comes, he's a man of the land, he's leatherman. Smile on his face, an axe in his hand. He's leatherman." Shake his hand he's leatherman. Bake some bread he's leatherman. Shame he's dead. I saw his bed, It's all that's left of leatherman. Give me some skin, leatherman. |

Talkin' to herself, there's no one else who needs to know She tells herself, oh... Memories back when she was bold and strong And waiting for the world to come along Swears she knew it, now she swears he's gone She lies and says she's in love with him, can't find a better man She dreams in color, she dreams in red, can't find a better man She lies and says she still loves him, can't find a better man She dreams in color, she dreams in red, can't find a better man Can't find a better man Can't find a better man She loved him, yeah, she don't want to leave this way She needs him, yeah, that's why she'll be back again Can't find a better man (Can't find a better man) Can't find a better man (Can't find a better man) Can't find a better man (Can't find a better man) Can't find a better...man |

All in all, it's no one's fault
excuses turn to carbon walls Blame it all on chemical intercourse The swallowed seeds of arrogance Breeding in the thoughts of ten- Thousand fools who fight irrelevance The full moon is dead skin The one down here is wearing thin So set up the ten pins As the human tide rolls in Like a ball that's spinning Bombs dropping down Overhead, underground It's instilled to wanna live Bombs, dropping down Please forgive our hometown In our insignificance "Turn the jukebox up," he said, Dancing in irreverance "Play C3, let the song protest." The plates begin to shift Perfect lefts come rolling in I was alone and far away When I heard the band start playing On the lip, late take off Bombs dropping down Overhead, underground It's instilled to wanna live Bombs, dropping down Please forgive our hometown In our insignificance Feel like resonance of distance In the blood, the iron lies It's instilled to wanna live Bombs, dropping down Please forgive our hometown In our insignificance In our insignificance |

Faithing and hoping to buy themselves time Me, I figure as each breath goes by I only own my mind The north is to south what the clock is to time There's east and there's west and there's everywhere life I know I was born and I know that I'll die The in-between is mine I am mine And the feeling, it gets left behind All the innocence lost at one time Significant behind the eyes There's no need to hide We're safe tonight The ocean is full 'cause everyone's crying The full moon is looking for friends at high tide The sorrow grows bigger when the sorrow's denied I only know my mind I am mine And the meaning, it gets left behind All the innocence lost at one time Significant behind the eyes There's no need to hide We're safe tonight, whoa And the feelings that get left behind All the innocence broken with lies Significance between the lines We may need to hide And the meanings that get left behind All the innocence lost at one time We're all different behind the eyes There's no need to hide |

I have not been home since you left long ago
I'm thumbing my way back to heaven Calm steps walking backwards on the road I'm counting my way back to heaven I can't be free with what's locked inside of me If there was a key you took it in your hand There's no wrong or right but I'm sure there's good and bad The questions linger overhead No matter how cold the winter, there's a springtime ahead I'm thumbing my way back to heaven I wish that I could hold you, I wish that I had Thinking 'bout heaven I let go of the rope thinking that's what held me back And in time I've realized it's now wrapped around my neck I can't see what's next from this lonely overpass Hang my head and count my steps as another car goes past All the rusted signs we ignored throughout our lives Choosing the shiny ones instead I turned my back, now there's no turning back Mmmmmmm No matter how cold the winter, there's a springtime ahead I smile, but who am I kidding? I'm just walking the mile, every once in a while get a ride I'm thumbing my way back to heaven I'm thumbing my way back to heaven I'm thumbing my way back to heaven |
