I got the razor at my wrist 'cause I can't resist I've got this fever burnin' fist That does as I wish But when I get downtown And see what's around I just know there's got to be A better place to be found
Oh, God help me
The river runs red and I think I'm dyin'
Well I know there'd come a day When my mind would say "Hey are you afraid" Well all I know is that I been down here tryin' Well, I'll bleed on through the night I suppose I'll be dead by the morning light So don't be suprised if you mind when you find me
The river runs red and I think I'm dyin' The river runs red and I think I'm dyin'
My eyes are closed My mouth is wide I could see her face Her beautiful hair I could recognize
She looks at me cold She probably don't know who I am Mommy it's me It's Keith You had me back when
But sometimes I like to pretend That she But sometimes I like to pretend That she But sometimes I like to pretend That she But sometimes I like to pretend That she holds me
I quess I can't Because show doesn't know who I am My mind it's dreaming God it's so misleading Do you think it's 'cause I've grown old Is it true what I was told You cried to leave me
You know I know it's not your fault You had a husband who was selfish and cold Believe me I know Believe me I know Now I hear you used to treat me cold You dissappeared and left me all alone I'm sure you didn't know right from wrong 'cause both of you were always getting Were always getting Were always getting stoned Were always getting stoned...
Like an ever flowing stream Like an ever flowing steam Take a bite of the fruit of life Cause the fruit of life is sweet Cause the fruit of life is sweet
You're my tangerine
Let the spirits speak through me Ecstasy and energy Let it come your wildest dreams A full bloom's glow melts the winter's freeze New day, stressless without disease Would you be my tangerine ?
You're my tangerine
I can't stop searching for more and more...
Still hung over from the night before Cosmic hunger, I'm your fruitful whore Soul sun searching, let your spirit soar Still hung over from the night before
> Dear son - Daddys never comin back home He passed on - claim him as one of your own My minds numb - Nothing has been clearer than this They found him on the rug at the Golden Gate Inn
And I know - Poppa never intended for this To drag me - Down into this bottomless pit Ive been given just about - all I can chew I think back on loves empty truth
And I feel like the day he died I feel like the day he died
I walked in - Cops talkin standing around I kneeled down - His body lying there on the ground I begged please, please - Let me get a minute with him And they said - Dont touch anything kid
It smelt like life - just exit the room I cried to - A shell of a man I once knew My minds been spinning way out of control I cant believe that its been three long years ago
And I feel like the day he died I feel like the day he died And I feel like the day he died I feel like the day he died
And I feel like the day he died I feel like the day And I feel like the day he died I feel like the day
Dear son - Daddys never comin back home Ive gone numb - Wish I had the strength to live on I cant breathe - Is there any air left in here? I cant believe - Everything I hold disappears Has gone on - Time and time again all alone And dear Son - Daddys never comin back home
And I feel like the day he died And I feel like the day he died And I feel like the day he died
Willing to start again, Willing to give another try. Willing to pretend but still so Dead. Willing to Comprehend Willing to give up all my pride Willing to forget but still so dead And its Starting to take its toll And its starting to unwind But the quicker that things unfold The quicker that they subside And writings on the wall But the walls have all come down If u cant see past the truth I love to let you DOWN...... Willing to walk again Willing to step back in the light, Willing to forget but still so dead Willing to turn my head Willing to let my feelings slide Willing to befriend but still so dead. And its Starting to take its toll And its starting to unwind But the quicker that things unfold is The quicker that they subside And writings on the wall But the walls have all come down If u cant see past the truth I love to let you ... And its complicated And its complicated Everything that I've known What was up is now down And its overrated And its over rated Everything that I know And I love to let you.... I love to let you .......... And its Starting to take its toll And its starting to unwind But the quicker that things unfold is The quicker that they subside And writings on the wall But the walls have all come down If u cant see past the truth I love to let you And I'm willing to start again To give it another try I'm willing to Start again
