This The Trip

This the Trip
Mile high in the sunlight
Your sex is radioactive
Neutron smash if I fall to ash
It would be the way to go
Red hot heat I could feel complete
With your liquid drip all around me
Could you come, come on give me some
Your curves could drive me home.

This the trip, trip on baby come along
This the trip, trip on with your give me some
This the trip, trip on baby come along
This the trip, trip on with your give me some

Hung high in your desert sky
I’ve been through the sundance
Some will say there’s another way
But I’ll take the surest road
We got love and we rise above
Well your pulse is my condition
Picture fall from upon the wall
Lose the sting of a lover gone

This the trip, trip on baby come along
This the trip, trip on with your give me some
This the trip, trip on baby come along
This the trip, trip on with your give me some

I don’t need no, hang my head
Love is proud or love is dead

This the trip, trip on baby come along
This the trip, trip on with your give me some
This the trip, trip on baby come along
This the trip, trip on with your give me some


Bottle Rocket

Living is like sunshine for you
Holding my hand
Baby’s breath and kiss of fire from you
Loving is everything
The touch of you is more than I can handle
So sweet and heavy

Hand over my heart
Loving you
Loving you’s like a bottle rocket
I’ll take my chances round and round
Loving you’s like a bottle rocket

Red lights and nights of fire only
Alone you’d be deadly
Sweet wind the waters edge, softly, fragile but willing

Hand over my heart
Loving you
Loving you’s like a bottle rocket
I’ll take my chances round and round
Loving you’s like a bottle rocket

And all this time I’ve changed all alone we’ll burn to dream of loving
And all the things we’ve done to believe this kiss would stand for something
And all this time I’ve spent all alone we’ll turn to stop our running
You’d slow the moon and sun if you could
This kiss would stand for something

Hand over my heart
Loving you
Loving you’s like a bottle rocket
I’ll take my chances round and round
Loving you’s like a bottle rocket


Know What You Mean

Hey man come on over here let me play some of nothin’ for your ears
I sat down and listened to him say love keeps gettin’ in the way
How many times will I fall in love with a girl that was my friend you see
Love is a hole in the middle of my hall, like a well that has no end
and I said

Oh yeah, I know what you mean
‘Cause a friend in love is a friend in need
There’s a soul out there that yours wants to find
Set your spirit free and I said
Oh yeah, I know what you mean
‘Cause a friend in love is a friend in need

She said hey man, come on let’s go, let me tell you something that you don’t know
Well I paced the floor and listened to her say love keeps gettin’ in the way
How many times will I fall in love with a boy who was my friend you see,
Love is a pole that blocks the door with a key the boy can’t lend and I said

Oh yeah, I know what you mean
‘Cause a friend in love is a friend in need
There’s a soul out there that yours wants to find
Set your spirit free and I said
Oh yeah, I know what you mean
‘Cause a friend in love is a friend in need

I tried to find some reason why I know our love is better but I’ve been sinkin’
I’ve been sinkin’
Well I tried to find a corner in my mind leave it all behind, but I’ve been thinkin’
I’ve been thinkin’
We can put it all together babe, we’ve got plenty of time
I remember sittin’ ‘neath the stars, talkin’ ‘bout love in a broken down car
He said what are we gonna do we’ve lost our way and love keeps gettin’ in the way
Well I replied to the question on his face said love’s not a time or convenient place
You’ve got rocks in you shoes you gotta fly, if it’s love there is no question why 

Oh yeah, I know what you mean
‘Cause a friend in love is a friend in need
There’s a soul out there that yours wants to find
Set your spirit free and I said
Oh yeah, I know what you mean
‘Cause a friend in love is a friend in need


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


Flesh And Bones

What’s within us 
Is all around us
Not a boundary
These flesh and bones
Something might
Something startling
Realizing what we are when we’re alone

Hold me in I’ll come undone
Hold me in I’m sinking, sinking for these
Flesh and bones I’m inside these eyes
Sometimes I can’t sleep at night 
For these flesh and bones make so much of me
You’re still in me and on my mind
These flesh and bones, bones, bones

Up the ladder
Genetic make-up
Spells the code for you and me
Animal instinct
Chemical magnet
You came my way could you be done with me

Hold me in I’ll come undone
Hold me in I’m sinking, sinking for these
Flesh and bones I’m inside these eyes
Sometimes I can’t sleep at night 
For these flesh and bones make so much of me
You’re still in me and on my mind
These flesh and bones, bones, bones

What’s within us Is all around us
Not a boundary these flesh and bones


Perfect

Sugar plum soft your fingers
Holding on is like holding my breath
Letting go you leave it stained and tainted
Giving up is like birth and death

I am not perfect
I have been what you need
You’ll sleep and sweetly slumber
You will blink and I’ll be gone

How can I be glad for giving
I’ve been shoved down to my knees
I’ve been good and I’ve been praying
I’ve been lied to and it’s so easy

I am not perfect
I have been what you need
You’ll sleep and softly slumber
You’ll blink and I’ll be gone

Sugar plums soft your fingers
Holding on is like holding my breath
Letting go you leave it stained and tainted
You’ve been given up like there’s nothing left

I am not perfect
I have been what you need
You’ll sleep and sweetly slumber
You’ll blink and I’ll be gone

I am not perfect


Say Good-Bye

Candles burning all the shadows flicker flashing
The sound of grace always reminds me of you
I hold myself now there’s no one else here to hold me
I want to make it through got to make it through
All the king’s horses and all the king’s men
Couldn’t keep me from believing 
I leave a letter on the pillow of your empty bed
She’s holding you but this much is true

We said I’ll never say good-bye
Too much to ever say good-bye to you
I’ll never say good-bye
Too much to ever say good-bye to you

Happy ever after never comes to pass
But all the while we were ever dreaming
The taste of someone new and wash it all away
That’s the human way we push it all away but we said

I’ll never say good-bye
Too much to ever say good-bye to you

I’ll never say good-bye

Tumblin’ Down

Could you be down for the unity all right
Down for the struggle
Love is love is everything
But it’s harder to be good
Some will seek the darkness to be brave
Seek and ye shall find it
Some will sit and wait to be saved
Take it when you should

If the walls come tumblin’ down
Crashing down, tumblin’ down
All at once will you come around
Crashing down, tumblin’ down

Could you be down for divinity all right
Down for my brother
All is all is everything
But it’s harder to be good
Some will live for honesty
The change is ever coming
The light and dark in everything
I know it’s harder to be good

If the walls come tumblin’ down
Crashing down, tumblin’ down
All at once will you come around
Crashing down, tumblin’ down

I know it’s harder to be good


Under The Sun

Sun is shinin’ and the waters much to low
Fire across America
Where the hell you think we’ll go
A drop of rain is good for everything
But the needle’s in your vein
You want it easy
You just take it, take it

She’s burnin’
Mother heaven
Our homeland
Burnin’ under the sun
She’s burnin’
Mother heaven
Our homeland
Burnin’ under the sun

Someday you’ll be kickin’ it
But it’ll be all right ‘til then
You fuck it up ‘til you get enough
Thinkin’ time will be your friend
Everyday is just another day
But the needle’s in your vein
Take what you don’t need
You just waste it, waste it

She’s burnin’
Mother heaven
Our homeland
Burnin’ under the sun
She’s burnin’
Mother heaven
Our homeland
Burnin’ under the sun

And the time will come, your children will say you lied
Rivers dry it don’t run
You cannot deny
As it is within it will be outside
And the time will come
And the time will come

She’s burnin’
Mother heaven
Our homeland
Burnin’ under the sun


Shelter

Rain come down, come falling down
Purified with no shelter
All at once you leave all at once
Testify that what you want is mine

And the dreams are waking me
All the dreams I’m wanting you

She’ll close her eyes
And dream of shelter
She wonders why
She dreams of shelter
And all she wants is your shelter
She wants your shelter

Rings and chains then no rings and chains
In the box put your memories
Holy day, give your love away
Then you’ll say that what you need is time

And the girl is shaking
All her dreams you’re breaking in two

She’ll close her eyes
And dream of shelter
She wonders why
She dreams of shelter
And all she wants is your shelter
She wants your shelter

And the girl is shaking
All her dreams you’re breaking in two


Some Things Are Free

Wanna feel thy nerves and ink my skin
I want it, I need it
Wanna fight the man my skin’s worn thin
He’s got it, we want it
Pictures and needles in my skin
They can’t understand it

Live in the sunshine
That’s where I’ll be
Sleep by the street sign
Some things are free
Nothing is easy
I’ll take my time
Ride into heaven
Some things are free

Wanna drink my love from angel’s hands
I want it, she’s got it
I’ll be good as gold with all my friends
We’ve got it, they want it

Tangles and tangles in my hair
You’ll get what your payin’

Live in the sunshine
That’s where I’ll be
Sleep by the street sign
Some things are free
Nothing is easy
I’ll take my time
Ride into heaven
Some things are free

Pictures and needles in my skin
They can’t understand it

Live in the sunshine
That’s where I’ll be
Sleep by the street sign
Some things are free
Nothing is easy
I’ll take my time
Ride into heaven
Some things are free
