Bring back that 'hair-down', unguarded mystery
I liked it better when your tightrope walked on me Board up my window, prepare for a hurricane You have a way of breaking through my barricade You give me all-new games to play You set me soul free Now every word that she speaks to me is pure gold She set my soul free She give me love, give me hope, give me strength to bear my faults for you Was my intention to take control again? Somehow you got me on the ropes of my own plan To turn up the volume and make you dance for me Release some pressure so that I can turn and see Spirit manifests as 'She' You set me soul free (you set my soul free) Now every word that she speaks to me is pure gold She set my soul free (she set my soul free) She give me love, give me hope, give me strength to bear my faults for you Like a flower I can see but I can't feel Oh yeah And nothing that you do could ever make me run, run away from you I never knew, I never knew she could She set my soul free (she set my soul free) Now every word that she speaks to me is pure gold She set my soul free (she set my soul free) She give me love, give me hope, give me strength to bear my faults for you |

Paint a moustache on the Mona Lisa
Ride a Harley through the heart of danger Pick up a pen and fight a war for the right to dream I was seventeen Give up my house, sleep for nights on concrete Meditate with all the bums on Vine Street No more running, no more hiding in the house of the dead I think I'll grow some dreads I believe in the sanctity of dreams No more running from these masqueraders I believe that society will never dream like me I dream of loving, of the empty graveyard I dream of Vegas and the transcendental wildcard A place where noone waits to die before they go into the light And just the blind have sight I follow nothing but the compass of my instinct No matter where it leads, I know it will take me to the brink And leave me there by myself and all alone with my dreams Can you hear my scream? I believe in the sanctity of dreams No more running from these masqueraders I believe that society will never dream like me Never dream like me Society will never dream like me Never dream like me Ooh ooh ooh I believe in the sanctity of dreams No more running from these masqueraders I believe that society will never dream like me Oh-oh I believe in the sanctity of dreams No more running from these masqueraders I believe that society will never dream like me Never dream like me Society Society will never dream like me Society Society Society will never dream like me |

"Looks like I've lost my will to carry on, my friend," she said
And you can hear it in my whispered cries for love I need your blissful touch to carry me away again So can we roll tonight, roll through your desert, can we start over and just... Run away, run away tonight It aint no victory, but I don't care, I don't care if its wrong or right We can just run away, run away tonight It aint no victory but I don't care, I don't care if its wrong or right "Looks like I've lost my will to carry on, my friend," she said I'm like a posse that's been ridin' for days I've got the scars to prove that love has had its day and it's way with me So can we roll tonight, roll through your desert, can we start over and just... Run away, run away tonight It aint no victory but I don't care, I don't care if its wrong or right We can just run away, run away tonight It aint no victory but I don't care, I don't care if its wrong or right This ain't no night to be on your own You've got to know where you're coming from To know just where you're goin', lord You've got to know where you're coming from This ain't no night to be on your own Run away, run away tonight It aint no victory but I don't care, I don't care if its wrong or right We can just run away, run away tonight It aint no victory but I don't care I don't care I don't care I don't care I don't care Run away Run away Run away |

In the country
the farms and the orchards swell with oranges and peaches a little bit of truth as well In the city polititians beat their drum all the suits come runnin it's all denegeration Life marches on life marches on life marches on In the country everybody thinks we're dumb but we've built the fire why'd you come and get you some? In the city skycrapers touch the sky what's the use of being so high up when it's only going to bleed you dry Life marches on, life marches on life marches on In the country stars shine brighter than in the city in the country in the country In the city I turn on the radio only leave me down with the question what happened to our generation Life marches on (7) |

I hope (I hope) she lights that candle
I hope (I hope) she shows me everything and all that light can bring Her skin (her skin), it begs my worship Like a mad temple crowd I crush her, she goes down We melt up from the ground... Up to better times, sweet release, take me now, take me now Up to better times, sweet release, take me now, take me now, yeah Doubt (doubt), get right behind me You're a cloud, just a blemish on the sun And there's better times to come Our love, this cloak and dagger This silent will to brighten everything And find the road that leads... Up to better times, sweet release, take me now, take me now Up to better times, sweet release, take me now, take me now, yeah, oh Oh, and if we die tonight, take our leave from this plastic place Become the dove, just fly away... Up to better times, sweet release, take me now, take me now Come on baby up to your better times Your sweet release, take me now, take me now, oh Oohh oooh Oh. |

The lighthouse lost it's light on her a long time ago
She got so used to it, this long and winding road I'll never ever let you go I can't believe She whispered to me I don't wanna breathe This ship of fools sails west by nighttime and by day Circumnavigates her globe like a bullet gone astray Come on home baby, where it's safe I can't believe She whispered to me I don't wanna breathe I don't wanna breathe Even if you drink from the chalice of cheap escape and fade away I'll never ever let you go I can't believe She whispered to me I don't wanna breathe I don't wanna breathe She whispered to me Now I can't believe She whispered to me Oh no no no.... |

And from a tiny river town you came
With mamma's rock-star dreams in tow, and daddy's brains But the rats they fought you oh yeah tooth and nail With the way they rigged this game, you had to fail But that's all behind you now, boy And from a tiny river town you came With nothing up your sleeve but a dirty forearm and an ace They drug you through that slaughterhouse at will You were the soldier without a kill You were the soldier without a kill Oh, who's gonna save your soul? Who's gonna make your heart beat again? And from a tiny river town you came Across the Rocky Mountains all in search of better days But paradise took you out and left the bill You were the healer without the thrill You were the ecstasy without the pill Oh, who's gonna save your soul? Who's gonna make your heart beat again? Who's gonna light up your dark? Who's gonna save your soul? Who's gonna be there? Who's gonna light up your dark? And from a tiny river town you came With mamma's rock-star dreams in tow and daddy's brains You'd better turn back before the frost sets in These desert nights are for weathered men The ones who've already given in Oh, who's gonna save your soul? Who's gonna make your heart beat again? Who's gonna save your soul? Now that you've given in Now that you've given in Now that you've given in |

I was lost, I am found
All the buildings are burnt to the ground I can't stay, I can't leave I can't do nothin', not a thing Do you see your son down on the street? Is that a gun or just the father that he needs? Do you cry, do you weep? Do you see the world as only tragedy? In the early mornin' there were revelations in my mind I can hear the masters cryin' out from their graves most every night Bring the people together Bring the people together It's a crime, this dark time We wait for presidents that never turn the tide I find it hard, I find it strange Go to the movies, have Picasso paint your cage I've had enough, I think I'm done So sell me down the river, I'll be waiting there in love In the early mornin' there were revelations in my mind I can hear the masters cryin' out from their graves most every night Bring the people together Bring the people together yeah Bring the people together Bring the people together yeah Bring the people together For the sake of these children we leave behind Can you remember a time? I was lost, I am found All the buildings are burnt to the ground I can't stay, I can't leave I can't do nothin', not a thing Tell me, is this a nation? Is this a tribe? Is this the world or just some everyday beehive? We need now, yeah, we need it quick Listen to lovers, better quit it with this shit In the early mornin' there were revelations in my mind I can hear the masters cryin' out from their graves most every night Bring the people together Bring the people together yeah Bring the people together Bring the people together yeah Bring the people together Bring the people together yeah Bring the people together Bring the people together yeah |

Battle flag in the bassinette
Oil and blood on the bayonet Crowded downtown hit the floor What are we fightin' for? What are we fightin' for? What are we fightin' for? The world got smaller but the bombs got bigger Holocaust on a hairpin trigger Ain't no game so forget the score What are we fightin' for? What are we fightin' for? What are we fightin' for? What are we fightin' for? What will I tell my daughter? What will you tell your son? Where were all the doves? That we were nothing but a shadow a faceless generation devoid of love? The crucifix ain't no baseball bat Tell me what kind of God is that? Ain't nothing more godless than a war So what are we fightin' for? What are we fightin' for? What are we fightin' for? What are we fightin' for? What will I tell my daughter? What will you tell your son? Where were all the doves? That we were nothing but a shadow A faceless generation? What are we fightin' for? |
