You're makin' a mess
Somethin' I can't fix This time you're on your own I'd make it alright But I wouldn't get it right I'm leavin' it alone For cryin' outloud Cryin' outloud Cryin' out You're cryin' out Yeah Yeah Yeah You're makin' a mess Is that what you do best? Is madness just a hand-me-down? It's anyone's guess But I must confess The performance isn't that profound Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah I'm waiting for the end Waiting to begin again You're makin' a mess Somethin' you can't hide A slow suicide Just one bite at a time I should love you less But I can't I guess Only God can save us now Cryin' out Cryin' out Cryin' out Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah |

The saddest songs are the happiest
The hardest truths are the easiest Put us both to the test And tell me if you still need me And I will swallow these words And see if I can still believe The biggest lies are the little ones When the look in your eyes is the distant one Angel or demon You know that they can share the same bed I've laid awake so long I've got them both inside my head This is what I'll remember most about dying So many moments like ghosts Slipping through my hands in vain You were 80% angel 10% demon The rest was hard to explain This American dream may be poisonous Violence is contagious Crowded or empty I walk these city streets alone Whoever brought me here Is gonna have to take me home This is what I'll remember most about dying Loading these moments like a gun Hoping to kill the pain You were 80% angel 10% demon The rest was hard to explain This is what I'll remember most about dying So many moments like ghosts Slipping through my hands in vain You were 80% angel 10% demon The rest was hard to explain You were 80% angel 10% demon The rest was hard to explain |

What she would like to do
Is get you out of her head She's tried every trick She's so sick of thinking about it What's so special about you You're an ache she's learned to crave You're a blade too dull to raise But she cuts herself On you every night She's just dying To lay down the knife What she would love to do Is get you out of her bed She's played it over and over and over In her head But she cuts herself On you every night She's just dying To lay down the knife She clings to what's familiar She thinks a change would kill her What she ought to do Is put a gun to your head For all the things you said and did But what she will not do Is let you go before you're gone It's everything that's ever been wrong But it's all she's ever known So she cuts herself on you every night She's just dying to lay down the knife What she would like to do Is get you out of her head |

I've lost the words
It ain't my way Takes some a breath What takes me twenty-five years to say Baby you're my favorite rolling stone Elvis left the building I have never been so alone Come on and show me how it feels Come on and show me how it feels Can we make it last can we make it real Come on and show me how it feels It's only me in this flimsy dress I could spread this love from the east to the west The bed is made the world's a mess Maybe we've got it backwards Maybe we should just care less Come on and show me how it feels Come on and show me how it feels Can we make it last can we make it real Come on and show me how it feels I close my eyes I see your face Every inch of your skin I begin to retrace Let me be the voice inside your head Listen to me whisper We can sleep when we're dead Come on and show me how it feels Come on and show me how it feels Can we make it last can we make it real Come on and show me how it feels |

I'm afraid I've lost the piece of me
I need the most you see This puzzle is really just about the need To be somebody I'm afraid I'm not all that you see All along the coast of me I'm camouflaged, a desert mirage A nobody But you came so close and I assumed You were looking For the piece of yourself that's lost It is the hiding place inside everybody And though we love to numb the pain We come to learn that it's in vain Pain is our mother She makes us recognize each other C'mon now child don't cry C'mon now child don't cry Let's give it one more try C'mon now child don't cry Sometimes I feel so all alone Here in this city I call my home They say, Hey, you're one of us Funny, I should feel so anonymous But I'm drawn to you And that still small voice is talking too And that's the voice that so seldom can get through C'mon now child don't cry C'mon now child don't cry Let's give it one more try C'mon now child don't cry You can't put no bandaid on this cancer Like a twenty-dollar bill For a topless dancer You need questions Forget about the answers Do you really wanna die this way That's the trouble with you and me We always hit the bottom 'fore we get set free I'm so far down I'm beginning to breathe C'mon now child don't cry C'mon now child don't cry Let's give it one more try C'mon now child don't cry Cuz we're just too young to die C'mon now child don't cry Let's give it one more try C'mon now child don't cry C'mon now, c'mon now C'mon now child don't cry C'mon now child don't cry C'mon now child C'mon now, c'mon now C'mon now, c'mon now C'mon now, c'mon now C'mon now child don't cry C'mon now child don't cry |

The last time I saw Jesus
I was drinking bloody mary's in the South In a barroom in New Orleans Rinsin' out the bad taste in my mouth She wore a dark and faded blazer With a little of the lining hanging out When the jukebox played Miss Dorothy Moore I knew that it was him without a doubt I said the road is my redeemer I never know just what on earth I'll find In the faces of a stranger In the dark and weary corners of a mind She said, The last highway is only As far away as you are from yourself And no matter just how bad it gets It does no good to blame somebody else Ain't it crazy What's revealed when you’re not looking all that close Ain't it crazy How we put to death the ones we need the most I know I'm not a martyr I've never died for anyone but me The last frontier is only The stranger in the mirror that I see But when I least expect it Here and there I see my savior's face He's still my favorite loser Falling for the entire human race Ain't it crazy What's revealed when you’re not looking all that close Ain't it crazy How we put to death the ones we need the most The last time I saw Jesus I was drinking bloody mary's in the South In a barroom in New Orleans Ain't it crazy What's revealed when you’re not looking all that close Ain't it crazy How we put to death the ones we need the most |

He woke
He knew that he was dying He spoke And found that he was flying Upstairs High above the city Through the ceiling of the stars So cruel and pretty Arms spread across the dark river The night air causing him to shiver Like the fluorescent lights in the Seven Eleven Meet me in the backstreets of heaven I don't wanna kiss you goodbye I don't wanna kiss you goodbye Hello, hello, hello, how the time flies I don't wanna kiss you goodbye He woke He knew that he was dying He spoke And found that he was flying Upstairs High above the city Through the ceiling of the stars So cruel and pretty Electric lines and wispy jet contrails Ships at sea and B&O train rails A tunnel of light like the Seven Eleven Meet me in the backstreets of heaven I don't wanna kiss you goodbye, no I don't wanna kiss you goodbye Hello, hello, hello, how the time flies I don't wanna kiss you goodbye Upstairs Meet me in the backstreets of heaven Meet me in the backstreets of heaven Meet me in the backstreets of heaven |

I don't know where this is going
I'm taking a ride on a wing and a prayer Follow me there We'll both be surprised If we forget anything Hopefully nobody will remind us Can't bear the news in the evening We're going to bed and we're going to war All of this for Anyone's guess If we forget anything Heaven forbid someone would remind us Sinners and saints, priests and kings Are we just using God for our own gain What's in a name Open your eyes If we forget everything There will be no one left to remind us I don't know where this is going I'm taking a ride on a wing and a prayer Follow me there We'll both be surprised |

I follow you from town to town
I need it I'm better off when you're around I mean it Sooner or later Things will all come around again Sooner or later I won't need anything Anything at all I walk these streets alone at night When it hurts me A perfect life's an oversight You curse me Should've known better Than this esoteric love Down to the letter It don't mean anything Anything at all Anything, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah Anything at all You and I You and I, yeah I wrestle with these guilty thoughts And I'm losing You're all I am I'm what you're not Confusing Sooner or later Things will all come around for good Sooner or later I won't need anything Anything at all Anything, yeah, yeah, yeah Anything at all |

I'm thinking of a word that has been
Knocked up and overused You could say it's lost all meaning From so much abuse But when you say love, OH But when you say love, OH Most everything I ever wanted Doesn't really have a name But baby you're as close as I've come and I know that it sounds strange But when you say love, OH But when you say love, OH So open up my heart-shaped box It's full of combination locks I've swallowed all my love-sick pills To keep from getting chills Look at all the books I've read In my lonely single bed But when you say love, OH But when you say love, OH But when you say love, OH But when you say love, OH But when you say love, OH But when you say love, OH |

Part of me
You are a part of me I never want to lose Hard for me This is too hard Maybe I can't get through What will I miss the most Pray that I'm haunted by your ghost Listening You're always listening I don't know what to say Why don't you turn and run at break-neck speed Just to get away And when you catch your breath Pray I said every word I meant Alright it's alright now Alright it's alright Broken down We're all so broken down Bandages on our wings I know I don't have to tell you Only broken hearts can sing I'm hoping for a sign Pray that I'm anything but fine Alright it's alright now Alright it's alright Alright it's alright Some things are never gonna change You ought to know by now You ought to know by now Alright it's alright now Alright it's alright Alright it's alright Alright it's alright |

Fool
Fool me I'm just a sentimental fool It happened again When I remembered you And all that we've been through Fool Truly I know this world it can be so cruel I won't let you go Fool Use me This is the part that I can't refuse Just do what you do My heart's becoming true It aches to make room for you Fool pursue me To heaven above or to hell below Just don't let go Fool me I'm just a sentimental fool I can't let you go |

The moon blind-sided the sky again
As we grabbed loose ends of the tide and then The slippery slide You know I can't say when I ever took a ride that could slap me this silly With roiling joy Lazy as sin Lyin' up in heaven with my special friend And the space he's in It can make a girl grin In the beginning of a lifelong fling I wrote down a dream Folded the note Slipped it in the pocket of my tattered coat I wrote down a dream In invisible ink It never was mine I'm beginning to think I wrote down a dream What more could I do I drew myself a picture and the picture was you I wrote myself a riddle I said, What I wouldn't do To give something good To a love like you The moon blind-sided the sky again As we grabbed loose ends of the tide and then The slippery slide You know I can't say when I ever took a ride that could slap me this silly With roiling joy Lazy as sin Lyin' up in heaven with my special friend And the space he's in It can make a girl grin In the beginning of a lifelong fling I wrote down a dream Folded the note Passed it to you we stepped in our boat Sailed ‘round the world We were hoping to find More than the sum of all we left behind I wrote down a dream But what was it now And why does it all feel so distant somehow Did I take too long Did I get it wrong You're still the missing line in my favorite song The moon blind-sided the sky again As we grabbed loose ends of the tide and then The slippery slide You know I can't say when I ever took a ride that could slap me this silly With roiling joy Lazy as sin Lyin' up in heaven with my special friend And the space he's in It can make a girl sing |

I thought that we'd be
Further along by now I can't remember how We stumbled to this place I loved you like a long lost brother On a bad day maybe I thought why bother I've seldom seen so much anger In a face I wanna do better I wanna try harder I wanna believe Down to the letter Jesus and Mary Can you carry us Across this ocean Into the arms of forgiveness I don't mean to laugh out loud I'm trying to come clean Trying to shed my doubt Maybe I should just keep My big mouth shut More often than not When it comes to you You want whatever's not in front of you Deep down I know this includes me too I wanna do better I wanna try harder I wanna believe Down to the letter Jesus and Mary Can you carry us Across this ocean Into the arms of forgiveness So tell me your troubles Let your pain rain down I know my job I've been around I invest in the mess I'm a low cost dumping ground Trouble is I'm so exhausted The plot, you see, I think I've lost it I need the grace to find what can't be found I wanna do better I wanna try harder I wanna believe Down to the letter Jesus and Mary Can you carry us Across this ocean Into the arms of forgiveness Jesus and Mary Come and carry us Across this ocean Into the arms of forgiveness |
