Once I wanted to be the greatest
No wind or waterfall could stop me
And then came the rush of the flood
The stars at night turned you to dust
Melt me down
To big black armour
Leave no trace
Of grace
Just in your honor
Lower me down
That corporate slob
Make a watch
For a space in town
For the lack of the drugs
My faith had been sleeping
Lower me down
In the end
Secure the grounds
For the later parade
Once I wanted to be the greatest
Two faced, sad little rock
When things I couldn't explain
Any feelings
Lower me down
In the end
Secure the grounds
For the lack of the drugs
My faith had been sleeping
For the later parade
Once I wanted to be the greatest
No wind or water fall could stop me
And then came the rush of the flood
. . .

It's not your face
Or the color of your hair
Or the sound of your voice my dear
That's got me dragged in here
It's the ice in the seam, the scheme of you
You're supposed to have the answer
You're supposed to have living proof
Yes I was jealous
Because you are sworn
How could you come undone to a word so strong
My beating heart the anchor to a ship so warm
You're supposed to have the answer
You're supposed to have living proof
Well I?m your answer I am living
Will you terrorize this
With your perfect lips
I watch you eat and feed this mess
To the running wind
But I know you from before and after until then
Do you have your answer
Do you have living proof
Well I am your answer I am living
You're supposed to have your answer
You're supposed to have living proof
Do you have your answer
Do you have your answer
Well I'm your answer I am living

We've lived in bars
And danced on tables
Hotel trains and ships that sail
We swim with sharks
And fly with aeroplanes in the air
Send in the trumpets
The marching wheelchairs
Open the blankets and give them some air
Swords and arches bones and cement
The light and the dark of the innocent of men
We know your house so very well
And we will wake you once we've walked up
All your stairs
There's nothing like living in a bottle
And nothing like ending it all for the world
We're so glad you will come back
Every living lion will lay in your lap
The kid has a homecoming the champion the horse
Who's going to play drums, guitar or organ with chorus
As far as we've walked from both of ends of the sand
Never have we caught a glimpse of this man
We know your house so very well
And we will bust down your door if you're not there
We've lived in bars
And danced on tables
Hotel trains and ships that sail
We swim with sharks
And fly with aeroplanes out of here
. . .

Could we
Take a walk
Could we
Have us a talk alone
In the afternoon
Could we
Have a seat
Why yes be my guest
You can hold my hand
What a dream
In the grass
We kissed
Fell in love too fast too soon
Love full bloom
Should we get up
Let's wake up
Let's get dressed
I'll let you walk me up the street
Back home
Thank you
It was great
let's make another date
Real soon
In the afternoon
. . .

All that is left
Is an empty shell
All my heart is crushed
I don't ever want to see
What my mind will see
When you loved me
Every night
Every night alone with you
Every night alone now
When she sits on your lap
Try to pretend to laugh
When she does stupid things
Just like I used to do
Do not hate her
Don't you even try
For to leave her
Is to love her
The same as you and I
I love you
And I miss you too
I really do love you
And I really do miss you too
But, I don't love you
And I don't need you
And I don't want you
Anymore
Every night
Every night alone with you
Every night alone now

Willie Deadwilder and Rebecca
They knew that they loved one another
Gonna have a real good time
No more sad bad times
It's all they've been waiting for
Someone to knock at that door
Willie was shot once in his mind
And his cry out saved his own life
The second time was through his heart
The doctors pulled the bullet from inside
He had a job to do he said
That's his way of life
Please don't bring him down
Please don't let him go
He's on the same side as you
He's just a little behind
I tell you there are some people living alone
I tell you there are some people with nowhere to go
There are some people who don't believe in love
But Willie and Rebecca prove 'em all wrong
A man named John wrote a song for me to sing
And the most beautiful flowers I have ever seen
He is a very good man
And he has been an even very good man to me
I hope one day his song I will sing
Another love I still love
Familiar face to me
A standing arch above my heart
I've never been to reach
He's laid my head on the bed
And told me sweetly I am not
Crazy like all the others said
No he's not crazy like me
Please don't bring me down
Please don't let me go
My heart is a worried thing
Memories have now planted seeds of a field I now
Want to reap and sow
I'm on the same side as you
I'm just a little behind
(have you seen him)
. . .

Where is my love?
Where is my love?
Horses galoping, bring you to me
Where is my love?
Where is my love?
Horses runnning free, carry you and me
Where is my love?
Where is my love?
Safe and warm, so close to me
In my arms finally
There is my love
There is my love
Horses galloping, bringing you to me
Where is my love?
Where is my love?

Moon is not only beautiful
It is so far away
The moon is not only ice cold
It is here to stay
When I lay me down
Will you still be around
When they put me six feet underground
Will the big bad beautiful you be around
Everyone says they know you
(they know you)
Better than you know who
(better than you)
Everyone says they own you
(they own you)
More than you do
When I lay me down
Will you still be around
When they put you six feet underground
Will the big bad beautiful moon be around
Cause the moon is not only beautiful
It is so far away
The moon is not only ice cold
It is here to stay
Everyone says they know you
(they know you)
Better than you know who
(better than you)
Everyone says they own you
(they own you)
More than you do

I want to rule the islands
And I want to rule the sea
But if you're not coming back
I will sleep eternally
And I want no heavy diamonds
And pearls crush my teeth
I just want my sailor
To sail back to me
Captain has a treasure
He says I hold the key
But old man grows and sweets winds blow songs
To you and me
I want to rule the islands
And I want to rule the sea
But if you're not coming back
I will sleep eternally
. . .

After it all
When it's said and done
Will you come back to me
And tell me that
It never was up to you or up to me
When you stand up so tall
With your back to me against the wall
And you make demands with your angry eyes
You say you're sorry that you
Didn't mean to scream you say
You're back again that you still love me
And that you never meant what you said to me
Should I believe what you're telling me
To wait for you
Was all I could do
To have you back with me so peacefully
You broke your back
You left your scratch
Then you came back to me
Just to get some sleep.
After it all
When it's said and done
Will you come back to me
And tell me that
It never was up to you or up to me
. . .

Anyone can tell you there's no more road to ride
Everyone will tell you there's no place to hide
There's no laws or rules to unchain your life
But the ones who didn't make it
The ones who couldn't take it
So glad they have made it out alive
Everyone loves the fun everyone comes by
In the wind I crunch I want to die
They can give me pills
Or let me drink my fill
The heart wants to explode far away
Where nobody knows
Do you believe she said that
Do you believe she said that
I said I hate myself and I want to die
Half of it is innocent
The other half is wise
The whole damn thing makes no sense
I wish I could tell you a lie
Hey come here
Let me whisper in your ear
I hate myself and I want to die
Do you believe she said that
Can you believe she repeated that
I said I hate me myself and I
I said I hate myself and I want to die

Love and communication you were here for me
At this very moment 'cause I found you on the phone
You called me
And you were not hunting me
Learning more and more about less and less and less
On the edge of your seat in some dark movie
Can you memorize the scenes
They'll be different next week
Can you tell me can you tell can you tell
If there's something better
'Cause you know there always is
There always is
Drawn to the party like a spider filling up your guts
Don't hate the night with what you shouldn't have
Come along for the ride you just know you should
You just know you should
Can you tell can you tell can you tell
If there's something better
'Cause you know there always is
There always is
Hated to see you sad when I left
There's no good in that but the good part was
That I came out at all 'cause I don't venture out
Into the lives of the new
I want you to come along for the ride
How long will you stay for your whole life
You just know you should
Can you tell me can you tell me can you tell
if there's something better
'Cause you know there always is
There always is
Love and communication you were here for me
At this very moment 'cause I found you on the phone
You called me
And you were not hunting me.

Dream, dream, dream, dream
Dream, dream, dream, dream
When I feel blue in the night
I want you to hold me tight
Whenever I want you
All I have to do is dream
I can make you mine
Taste your lips of wine
Anytime night or day
Only trouble is, gee whiz
I’m dreaming my life away
I need you so that I could die
I love you so and that is why
Whenever I want you
All I have to do is dream
Dream, dream, dream
Dream, dream, dream
When I feel blue in the night
And I want you to hold me tight
Whenever I want you
All I have to do is dream
I can make you mine
Taste your lips of wine
Anytime night or day
Only trouble is, gee whiz
I’m dreaming my life away
I love you so that I could die
I need you so and that is why
Whenever I want you
All I have to do is dream
Dream, dream, dream
Dream, dream, dream
