Go 'way from my window,;
Leave at your own chosen speed.
I've gained some recognition but I lost my appetite.
I finally realize there's no room for regret
Now you stand here expectin' me to remember somethin' you forgot to say
there are no sins inside the Gates of Eden
They say you're usin' voodoo, I seen your feet walk by themselves
I'm in the streets;
With the tombstone blues
I was just too stubborn to ever be governed by enforced insanity
You don't need a weather man;
To know which way the wind blows
Drinkin' man listens to the voice he hears;
In a crowded room full of covered up mirrors;
Lookin' into the lost forgotten years;
For dignity
I can't help it if I'm lucky.
Shall I hold you close?;
Or Shall I let you go by?;
Tell me.;
Tell me.
You breathed on me and made my life a richer one to live,;
When I was deep in poverty you taught me how to give
Am I no longer a part of your plans or your dreams?
The man in me will hide sometimes to keep from bein' seen,;
But that's just because he doesn't want to turn into some machine.
I just want you to know;
I can see through your masks
The world of illusion is at my door
Either I'm too sensitive or else I'm gettin' soft.
Nations are angry, cursed are some,;
People are expecting a false peace to come.
Time is all I have to give
Well, anybody can be just like me, obviously;
But then, now again, not too many can be like you, fortunately.
I've already ripped out the phones, honey.;
You can't walk the streets in a war
I need a steam shovel mama to keep away the dead
Your loyalty is not to me;
But to the stars above
When He rose from the dead, did they believe?
If dogs run free, why not me;
Across the swamp of time?
I ain't sayin' you treated me unkind;
You could have done better but I don't mind;
You just kinda wasted my precious time
This wheel shall explode!
take me disappearin' through the smoke rings of my mind
