Don't trust me to show you love; When my love may be only lust.
Well, they're not showing any lights tonight; And there's no moon.
I know all about poison, I know all about fiery darts,; I don't care how rough the road is, show me where it starts,; Whatever pleases You, tell it to my heart.
The sky cracked its poems in naked wonder
But I mean no harm nor put fault, On anyone that lives in a vault, But it's alright, Ma, if I can't please him.
I'm hungry and I'm irritable; And I'm tired of this bag of tricks.; At one time there was nothing wrong with me; That you could not fix.
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
There's always some new stranger sneakin' glances,; Some trigger-happy fool willin' to take chances
You can make me cry; Never say goodbye
I see people who are supposed to know better standin' around like furniture.
All the laughter is just making me sad
Oh the fishes will laugh; As they swim out of the path; And the seagulls they'll be smiling.
If you get close to her, kiss her once for me
The pump don't work; 'Cause the vandals took the handles
Everybody is making love
Or else expecting rain
time is running backwards
I must be guilty of something,; You just whisper it into my ear.
Down the highway, down the tracks, down the road to ecstasy,; I followed you beneath the stars, hounded by your memory,; And all your ragin' glory.
The birds are flyin' low babe, honey I feel so exposed
Your mind is your temple, keep it beautiful and free,; Don't let an egg get laid in it by something you can't see.
Love is so simple, to quote a phrase,; You've known it all the time, I'm learnin' it these days.
Reality has always had too many heads
My so-called friends have fallen under a spell.; They look me squarely in the eye and they say, "All is well."; Can they imagine the darkness that will fall from on high; When men will beg God to kill them and they won't be able to die?
I don't know why I love her but I just can't stop
I'm not sleepy and there is no place I'm going to.
I've been down on the bottom of a world full of lies; I ain't looking for nothing in anyone's eyes
take me disappearin' through the smoke rings of my mind
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
The treasure can't be found by men who search
Nations are angry, cursed are some,; People are expecting a false peace to come.
Oh, but if I had the stars from the darkest night,; And the diamonds from the deepest ocean,; I'd forsake them all for your sweet kiss,; For that's all I'm wishin' to be ownin'.
All I feel is heat and flame and all I see are dark eyes.
We heard the Sermon on the Mount and I knew it was too complex,; It didn't amount to anything more than what the broken glass reflects.
Sometimes I wanna take to the road and plunder
My conscience is beginning to bother me today.
I stood alone upon the ridge and all I did was watch.
What's a sweetheart like you doin' in a dump like this?
Time is an ocean but it ends at the shore; You may not see me tomorrow.
Can't you hear that motor turnin'?; Automobile comin' into style
Oh, ev'ry thought that's strung a knot in my mind,; I might go insane if it couldn't be sprung.
When He rose from the dead, did they believe?
You have explained every mystery.; What can I do for You?
As the last fire truck from hell; Goes rolling by, all good people are praying
I wish, I wish, I wish in vain,; That we could sit simply in that room again.
The sky is erupting, I must go where it's quiet.
Look into infinity, all you see is trouble.
If he needs a third eye he just grows it
My head tells me it's time to make a change; But my heart is telling me I love ya but you're strange.
It was gravity which pulled us down and destiny which broke us apart
Idiot wind, blowing through the buttons of our coats,; Blowing through the letters that we wrote.
Satan whispers to ya, "Well, I don't want to bore ya,; But when ya get tired of the Miss So-and-so I got another woman for ya."
Put your body next to mine; And keep me company,; There is plenty a room for all,; So please don't elbow me.
I got a poison headache,; But I feel all right
Done so many evil things in the name of love, it's a crying shame; I never did see no fire that could put out a flame.
I could say that I'd be faithful, I could say it in one sweet, easy breath; But to you that would be cruelty and to me it surely would be death.
