"Far away from any road,
Froze my heart in solitude,
Where your passerby can see,
Our life's highway guard within,
Knowing when our last does fail,
Our compassion shall be met,
...
Our life's highway guard within."
We need vices (oh),
We need vices (oh),
Well you took my hope and my marriage license,
(where's my home?)
Those days are dead
(forgive me)
Those days are dead
(forgive me)
Those days are dead
(forgive me)
We need vices at fifty thousand degrees
She said goodbye to the ground
She said goodbye to the ground
She said goodbye to the ground
I don't care
I got creative (oh no),
To try to kill the major,
Where is my trigger?
...
And that forest burned
That forest burned
That forest burned
We need ten years, everyone, so we can return
She said goodbye to the ground
She said goodbye to the ground
She said goodbye to the ground
She said goodbye to the ground
She said goodbye to the ground
And jumped
We need vices (oh),
We need vices (oh),
We've done nothing but brandish our disguises
Those days are dead
(forgive me)
Those days are dead
(forgive me)
Those days are dead
(forgive me)
We need vices to wave to the good old days
She said goodbye to the ground
She said goodbye to the ground
She said goodbye to the ground
And jumped

My head is lit,
I don't ever want to go to bed,
Your hair is on fire.
You snuff the blaze,
Turn to vapour then you float away,
We got into a bad fight.
I laid here on my bed,
Laid here on my bed,
Laid here on my bed,
Laid here on my bed,
Laid here on my bed,
Laid here on my bed,
Laid here on my bed.
My eyes are lungs, I'm a prophet and I speak in tongues,
I know how you'll die.
Your sister groans, 'are you serpent to the holy throne?'
To me she's just a dead spy.
I laid here on my bed,
Laid here on my bed,
Laid here on my bed,
Lie to all your friends,
Lie to all your friends,
Lie to all your friends,
Lie to all your friends.
I don't know what you feel like,
Ambushed on the road, stole your gold, you're all rolls and you're laughing now.
Everything that I own starts to pile up,
Like bones make the walls of a prison.
Laid here on my bed,
Laid here on my bed,
I don't ever want to go to bed,
Stay up for the fight.
The champ goes down like a clown in the second round,
I wish we'd had a bad goodbye.
Lie to all your friends,
Lie to all your friends,
Lie to all your friends,
Lie to all your friends,
Lie to all your friends,
Lie to all your friends,
Lie to all your friends,
Laid here in my bed,
Laid here in my bed,
Laid here in my bed.

Wait
I watched you throw out your bouquet
Now I think about you every day
And I'm alone now in my bed
And there's a lake
And at the bottom you'll find all our friends
They don't swim cause they're all dead
They never are what we intend
Or invent
'Cause I made little lies, and then I pulled them apart
Think something dark's living down in my heart
And if I wanted to die before I got old
I should've started some years ago digging that hole
Well I'll carry this box to the proper place
And when I lower it down
I let you fade away
I hope that you would do this for me
(I hope that you would do this for me)
I'd serve you drugs on a silver plate
If I thought it would help you get away
I hope that you would do this for me
(I hope that you would do this for me)
A deer that a hunter shot in the heart
Some dogs that got hit by cars
All came to spill their guts
And we spoke
'Bout the Father, Son and Holy Ghost
And which songs we had loved the most
And then we all turned to dirt
And dust
Some men die under the mountain just looking for gold
Some die looking for a hand to hold
Well I'll carry this box to its proper place
And when I lower it down
I let you fade away
I hope that you would do this for me
(I hope that you would do this for me)
I'd serve you drugs on a silver plate
If I thought it would help you get away
I hope that you would do this for me
(I hope that you would do this for me)
Well I stopped fixing the dam almost every day
Now I'm drowning in the flood I made
Explain myself to me on the other side
I'm gonna want some answers when I die
Well I carry this box to its proper place
And when I lower it down
I let you fade away
I hope that you would do this for me
(I hope that you would do this for me)
I'd serve you drugs on a silver plate
If I thought it would help you get away
I hope that you would do this for me
(I hope that you would do this for me)

So he tried to put the fire out
But you used gasoline
When the congregation gathered around
You screamin' "it wasn't me,"
So there is a sickness that's going around
But no one's got a vaccine
I think it drowned in holy water
I think it's time we all come clean
I swear it's like dying
To catch a ghost
It feels like I'm trying
To hold smoke
I swear it's like dying
To catch a ghost
It feels like I'm trying
To hold smoke
When the army had to hold the line
You were nowhere near the front
Before the kids could tell their dog goodbye
You were loadin' up your gun
I want to know what is the great divide
I wanna know what I've become
You think that no one else is lonesome?
You think that you're the only one?
It feels like I'm jumping towards a train
It feels like I'm jumping towards a train
I'm trying to find a way
It feels like I'm jumping towards a train
It feels like I'm jumping towards a train
But I'm trying to find a way

Last night they said the fire had spread and we said our prayers
And now the flames are burning me in my bed but I just don't care
We all go to sleep in the same place and in the morning hope that we're all the same
We'll just sit around like broke down cars in the lot waiting for repairs
There you go
There it goes
Well I wish that I was as good as you at caring and trusting
And I wish that my condition was new but I'm old and rusted
So we just hurry up only to wait
And add to the list of all the places we hate
And I'll pretend like I've got something to say but I've got nothing
And now I know what you stole
Yeah you stole
From the cradles they were rocked in
You took the first words that they spoke
Yeah you stole
Yeah you stole
So if I'm a liar then you're a thief
At least we both know where the other one sleeps and lets end this tonight.
Stole
Yeah you stole
From the cradles they were rocked in
You took the first words that they spoke
Yeah you stole
Yeah you stole
So if I'm a liar then you're a thief
At least we both know where the other one sleeps and lets end this tonight

It's getting hard to stay up
I think I can hear God calling my name
He'll try to make my heart break
but I was told you'd call me tonight
they're calling my name
they won't slow the car down
I'm scared that I will keep it for my own
the one that is calling my name is telling "come down"
they're calling my name
they're calling my name
calling my name
. . .

I don't want to let you go,
but it hurts my hands to hold the rope.
I won't be such an easy mark,
You're no better than they say!
And all the candles on the cake
All set fire to the gate.
Turn the cannons towards the boat
Men were drowning in the moat!
It was the end of all the rowers oars!
If you call then I'm coming to get you.
If you call then I'm coming, now.
If you call then I'm coming to get you.
But you want to sink, so I'm gonna let you.
All I want's some earth and seed
to only grow the things I need
But first I must find my way back
And you go lay down on the track!
At first I had an even keel
But now I'm not sure what is real.
It's taken me this long to learn
That every day is ate by worms,
And once they're gone they don't return!
If you call then I'm coming to get you.
If you call then I'm coming, now.
If you call then I'm coming to get you.
But you want to sink, so I'm gonna let you.
I'm coming to get you.
If you call then I'm coming to get you.
If you call then I'm coming to get you.
But you want to sink, so I'm gonna let you.
Then the fire snuck into your bedroom,
now I'm falling asleep to forget you.
How darkly the dark hand met his end.
He was withered and bony, exposed for a phony.
But we heed the last words that he penned,
"Haste to disgrace the traitor. Do not wait till later."
I don't think that you've got to pretend,
I see God in birds and Satan in long words.
But I know what you need in a friend.
So now when I leave you, I hope I won't see you.
How darkly the dark hand met his end.
He was withered and bony, exposed for a phony.
But we heed the last words that he penned,
"Haste to disgrace the traitor. Do not wait till later."
If you call then I'm coming to get you.
If you call then I'm coming, now.
If you call then I'm coming to get you.
But you want to sink, so I'm gonna let you.
I'm coming to get you.
If you call then I'm coming to get you.
If you call then I'm coming to get you.
But you want to sink, so I'm gonna let you.
Then the fire snuck into your bedroom,
now I'm falling asleep to forget you.

Trees will make a forest
Trees will make a bow
These are all the harder
Words you have to know
If everyone's a structure
Where their own savior sits
Then I'm a little red house
And no one's living in it
Cars are little blood cells
We are oxygen
City is the airways
Suburbs appendages
She was feeling lonely
She left her hive
Rented out a family
She bought a bride
Bought a bride
Bought a bride
Bought a bride
Little cities names labeled along the map
They tied her up and laid her on the train tracks
Where are all the seedlings
We grew from violence
Down in Jersey lumber
Stealing prosthetic limbs
Should've been a soldier
I should've fought and died
There's no revolution
So I bought a bride
Bought a bride
Bought a bride
Bought a bride
Coming down the alley while the horns play "Taps"
They tied her up and laid her on the train tracks
Somehow I always knew when everything was unsaid
Go and buy a hammer, never sing again
. . .

(Recording)
And we sing this morning that wonderful and grand old message.
I don't know about you but I never get tired of it
Number 99: Just As I Am.
I'm a mountain that has been moved
I'm a river that is all dried up
I'm an ocean nothing floats on
I'm a sky that nothing wants to fly in
I'm a sun that doesn't burn hot
I'm a moon that never shows it's face
I'm a mouth that doesn't smile
I'm a word that no one ever wants to say...
(Child speaking.)
I don't wanna be,
He wasn't finding anybody when he was on the shelf
I saw him in my dream
I'm a mountain that has been moved
I'm a fugitive that has no legs to run
I'm a preacher with no pulpit
Spewing a sermon that goes on and on...
Well if we take all these things and we bury them fast
And we'll pray that they turn into seeds, to roots and then grass
It'd be all right, it's all right, it'd be easier that way
Or if the sky opened up and started pouring rain
Like he knew it was time to start things over again
It'd be all right, it's all right, it'd be easier that way
Well if we take all these things and we bury them fast
And we'll pray that they turn into seeds, to roots and then grass
It'd be all right, it's all right, it'd be easier that way
Or if the sky opened up and started pouring rain
Like he knew it was time to start things over again
It'd be all right, it's all right, it'd be easier that way

Stones in your eyes,
Stones in your eyes,
Stones in your eyes,
Stones in your mouth,
Stones in your ears,
Stones in your mind,
Stones in your eyes,
Stones in your eyes,
Living in a jar, think the lids the sky,
You're hoping for a savior on your cross outside.
Stars are just a million little fireflies,
The sun is just the whole world and the light outside.
...
Holding out for rest but on the seventh day,
I've created nothing and I'm wide awake,
So can I tie my key to your electric kite?
The rooster crowed twice and you can't sleep at night.
There's too many saviors on my cross again,
I know I'm never going to be a perfect man.
Everyone's an oyster with their grain of sand,
I love you most and some, now it has to end.
...
Stones in your eyes,
Stones in your eyes,
Stones in your eyes,
Stones in your eyes,
Stones in your eyes,
Stones in your eyes,
I'll run a million miles if you win first prize.
...

Little light,
Lead us through the night,
And if we die,
Burn down the forest.
Chariots,
Carry us,
Distances,
We don't care to walk.
(I'm on my way out)
(I'm on my way out)
Why doesn't anyone I know sleep?
Are they only just scared of visions?
When they lay their heads down at night,
What are they haunted by?
Why won't anyone just close their eyes?
Could it hurt them to rest for a while?
Do they need their friend to be a lover,
Or a lover to be a friend?
Because...
(I'm on my way out)
Well, I've tried. God knows that I've tried.
(I'm on my way out)
One time, two time, three time again.
It's getting dark,
Running out of luck,
Our cars stuck,
On the train crossing.
How am I ever going to know peace?
How will I ever see the light through the trees?
I want to burn down everything we've begun,
I want to kill and eat my young.
Because...
(I'm on my way out)
Well, I've tried. God knows that I've tried.
(I'm on my way out)
One time, two time, three time again.
(I'm on my way out)
Well, I've tried. God knows that I've tried.
(I'm on my way out)
One time, two time, three time again.
(I'm on my way out)
(I'm on my way out)
(I'm on my way out)
(I'm on my way out)
