Strong tall buildings on the sacred ground.
We the masters of the mystery to a small degree.
Big ideas; the wine of pure imagination.
Motivation by the dollar, rots the grape.
Hope in the meantime, love in your lifetime
I wish for you to feel it deeply sometime.
Rain in the moonlight is a simple joy,
I wish for you to feel it deeply sometime - in the meantime.
Strange fascination, the way I feel.
Do you look into the eyes of a stranger?
So much despair, so many tied and tangled.
Who could recognize the damned, when all are counted?
Hope in the meantime, love in your lifetime.
I wish for you to feel it deeply sometime.
Rain in the moonlight is a simple joy.
I wish for you to feel it deeply sometime - but in the meantime.
He'd come to deliver us, but he got cast in a movie.
Limelight for an Angel in disguise.
Hollywood in the winter, much warmer than most places.
Who could recognize the damned when all are counted?
Hope in the meantime......
Nobody's Home
You and I we belong here
We’ve been livin’ here
For a long time
We have a right to have them serve
We have a right to know what’s going on
We have a right to have them show the way they feel
I’ve been wondering if you can see
I’ve been wondering if you can feel
There’s a fire and it’s in our home and we’re burnin’ and burnin’, we’re
burnin’
When you’re drinking your morning coffee
Do you feel the breath on your neck
If all the youth were at the White House knockin’
Would you whisper nobody’s home
The wise man said the wicked surely must rule world
The deep of soul and mind were made for somethin’ more
Men of peace are drawn and slain
Born to lead but die in vain
While the shallow carry on the money war
I’ve been wondering if you can see
I’ve been wondering if you can feel
There’s a fire and it’s in our home and we’re burnin’ and burnin’, we’re
burnin’
When you’re drinking your morning coffee
Do you feel the breath on your neck
If all the youth were at the White House knockin’
Would you whisper nobody’s home
Forgiven
Sand washed away. Rain Water Rivers.
Seven years old, soaked in sun.
Our mother was the Queen, Queen of the castle.
My house was yours, our house was love.
Hard to remember, hard to forget.
If love is the answer that Abraham beget.
Familiar forgiveness will come in the end,
hope for the future was my friend. Pretend.
Will all be forgiven?
Sister so sweetly, heart like the sun.
Shame is the reason he left you to someone.
In a world of transgression search for the soul.
The promise; salvation, so we've been told.
Will all be forgiven?
Feel Better
It took awhile for me to see
what you want ain't always what you need.
I feel fine, I feel better, I feel fine, feelin' better.
All at once, realize,
leavin' me blessing in disguise.
And I'm runnin', runnin' out run away.
Left a long time ago.
There's nothin' more for me to say.
Burning building; I take my things and go.
I feel fine, feelin' better.
It took awhile for me to know,
what you say ain't always what you're feelin'.
I feel fine, I feel better, I feel fine, feelin' better.
All at once, eggshell walk,
skate on ice 'bout the things I talk.
And I'm runnin', runnin' out run away.
Left a long time ago.
There's nothin' more for me to say.
Burning building; I take my things and go.
I feel fine, feelin' better.
I give up on you.
Without You
Peculiar how a lifetime,
I've lived in such a small time.
You've come into my garden like an angel.
We've crossed a sea of miles.
Sometimes humbled me to helpless. I
've stumbled into something like a dream.
In these arms I've carried plenty.
Sometimes I've been afraid.
But I believe in what love tells me.
In one breath I'd fall to pieces; with the news I'd live without you.
The time that we're together,
sometimes that be never.
But always I'm connected to your soul.
All is loaned and borrowed.
No love belongs to sorrow.
Possession's not a power love demands.....
Good Thing
Come on baby, give me a reason,
to dig the one night, one night kind of deed.
I've been waiting-waiting for it-waiting for a good thing.
I've been checking out the lights and you've been sugar cane sweet.
Just tell me this, what's goin' on?
Just tell me sweetly what's goin' on?
We've got a good thing, what's been goin' on?
We've got a good thing darlin'. We've got a good thing.
Come on baby, give me a signal.
I'm not one to play games, I know what I need.
There's a method to the madness and I'll be coming on strong.
There's a burnin' in my soul, I'll love you like you never felt before.
Just tell me this, what's goin' on?......
Guilty Sin
Out in the streets, a headhunters theme, Burn baby burn.
They come here to hate me-come here to pray.
Pray at me, pray at me.
So many voices, "shame, shame, shame"
They'll never even know my name.
They don't know me, don't know my love.
It's my love, never shame.
Too many crosses on my hands.
I'm free from the guilty sin.
Loves not enough, hate's your plan.
I'm free from your guilty sin....
Out in the streets, a young nazi screams "Die Bitch Die!"
They came here to hate me, came here to fight.
They spit at me, foam at me.
So many voices, "shame, shame, shame."
What on earth cold make them hate me this way?
They don't know me, they don't know love.
Find someone else to blame.....
Too many crosses on my hands.
I'm free from the guilty sin.
Loves not enough, hate's your plan.
I'm free from your guilty sin....
Holding On
I've been living in the meantime.
I've been chasing my somehows for a longtime.
You could say that I've been lonely.
You say say that I've been wasted lately.
But I'm holding on.
I'm holding on.
I'm holding on for your love to come down.
I'm holding on.
I'm holding on.
I'm holding on for your love....
Most the year I've been traveling.
Most the year I've been unravlin' me senses.
You could say I love you madly.
You sould say I love you madly.
But I'm holding on.
I'm holding on.
I'm holding on for your love to come down.
I'm holding on.
I'm holding on.
I'm holding on for your love....
Greenhouse
Round and round, the hell hound on your trail.
Thunder start the fire in the fields of your mother.
Where'd you get that shiney ride, where'd you get the dough?
From cutting down the breath, the trees of your mother?
Capitalist pinhead, turning your profit,
hoarding your money, rich when you die.
Bathe in the lies in the house on the hill
with the hope that you'll feel good in heaven.
Making molehills of mountains with your hand.
The check was easy to write for your new pool backyard.
Consumer, consumer, let down your hair.
Don't you feel it now all the Colorado tourist towns are burnin'.
Capitalist pinhead, turning your profit,
hoarding your money, rich when you die.
Bathe in the lies in the house on the hill
with the hope that you'll feel good in heaven.
125 degrees....130 degrees in the greenhouse....140 degrees in the
greenhouse...In the greenhouse you live.
Casting Stones
Out on the waters edge.
Casting stones with what we say.
You said, I said, promises.
Like ripples from a drowned effect, moving through without respect.
You said you'd take me as I am,
take me as I am.
Sometimes, the water's fine and,
sometimes you and I, we try.
Sometimes the water's fine, and sometimes,
I can't stand inside.
I can't stand inside.
Out on the shallow reef, taking steps but not too deep.
We believe in every word we believe.
But in the moving tide, the things that stick down deep inside.
Crawling out, crawling in like a net we're tangled in.
Sometimes, the water's fine and,
sometimes you and I we try.
Sometimes, the water's fine and, sometimes
I can't stand inside.
And the water's in my eyes,
and the water's in my veins.
You're the water in my eyes,
you're every Breath, every breath, every breath.... Sometimes, the
water's
fine and.......
Callin' On Me
Subway station, twelve o'clock noontime and I'm thinkin' of callin' on
G.
It's been a hard time, full-moon time, love's landslidin'.
Scarecrows a callin' on me.
Callin' callin' on me
Callin' callin' on me
Callin' callin'...What your momma done say, you don't worry bout
anything.
He said, "what you doin? What you thinkin'?
You'd give her your soul if she'd take it?"
I said, "I don't know but I can't shake it.
Full moons a crumblin' on me".
Crumblin' crumblin on me.
Crumblin' crumblin on me.
Crumblin' crumblin... What your momma done say, you don't worry about
anything.
Whiskey slumber is my pillow.
Dragon fly is my dream.
Tall prince charming is my nowhere.
Short term memory is a friend to me.
Late night moonshine, warm wind blowin.
Hard to hear anything but need.
It's been a hard time full-moon time.
Love's landslidin'.
Scarecrows a callin' on me. Callin' callin' on me.... What your momma
done
say, you don't worry about anything....
