I wanna hear some music
Now that they're driving us all underground
Not the radio music, or their satellite singing this
In this town, in this town

I wanna hear some music
And with the rock stars all flicker and fade
Power radio music, I'm a ghost overground
On, on parade

And even if your voice comes back again
Maybe they'll be no one listening
And even if I find the strength to stand
Doesn't mean I won't go missing
And the world will come
Crashing

I wanna hear some music
I have been waiting down here for so long
Trying to write this big music,
With your breath on my face
But now, now you're gone

And even if your voice comes back again
Maybe they'll be no one listening
And even if I find the strength to stand
Doesn't mean I won't go missing
And the world will come,
Crashing

And the whole world comes
Down, down-wards
And all the water on this broken town
The freeway's just like veins without a heart

And the world just comes
Crashing

And the whole world comes
Crashing

And even if your voice comes back again
Maybe they'll be no one listening
And even if I find the strength to stand
Doesn't mean I won't go on

And even if your voice comes back again
Maybe they'll be no one listening
And even if you find the strength to stand
It doesn't mean you won't go missing

And the world will come
Crashing

And the words will come
Crashing

And the music comes
Crashing

Down on me
Down on me

And the words will come
Crashing

And the words will come
Crashing

Down on me
So down on me...

. . .


I'm keeping quiet til there's no more sirens
Lately it's hard to keep the hinges on with all the noise
I'll find my words when there's no one talking
The room is spinning, I have got no choice
Be patient, I am getting to the point.

I can't remember when the earth turned slowly
So I just waited with the lights turned out again
I lost my place but I can't stop this story
I've found my way, but until then
I'm only spinning

I'm keeping quiet til the phone stops ringing
Lately it's hard to disconnect, I just want something real
I've found the words if I could just stop thinking
The room is spinning, I have got no choice
Be patient, I am getting to the point.

I can't remember when the earth turned slowly
So I just waited with the lights turned out again
I lost my place but I can't stop this story
I've found my way, but until then
I'm only spinning

Spin beneath the rooftop
Hold on, wait until the room stops
Spinning

I can't remember when the earth turned slowly
So I just waited with the lights turned out again
I lost my place but I can't stop this story
I've found my way, but in the end
We're only spinning

I keep forgetting when the earth turned slowly
So I just waited til the lights come on again
I lost my place but I can't stop this story
I've found my way, but until then
I'm only spinning

Spinning
Spinning

. . .


You gotta swim
Swim for your life
Swim for the music
That saves you
When you're not so sure you'll survive
You gotta swim
Swim when it hurts
The whole world is watching
You haven't come this far
To fall off the earth
The currents will pull you
Away from your love
Just keep your head above

I found a tidal wave
Begging to tear down the door
Memories like bullets
They fired at me from a gun
Cracking me open yeah
I swim to brighter days
Despite the absense of sun
Choking on salt water
I'm not giving in
I swim

You gotta swim
For nights that wont end
Swim for your families
Your lovers your sisters
And brothers your friends
Yeah you gotta swim
For wars without cause
Swim for the lost politicians
Who don't see their greed is a flaw
The currents will pull us
Away from our love
Just keep your head above

I found a tidal wave
Begging to tear down the door
Memories like bullets
They fired at me from a gun
Cracking me open now
I swim to brighter days
Despite of the absense of sun
Choking on salt water
I'm not giving in
I'm not giving in
I swim

You gotta swim
Swim in the dark
There's an ocean to drift in
Feel the tide shifting away from the spark
Yeah you gotta swim
Don't let yourself sink
Just follow the horizon
I promise you it's not as far as you think
The currents will drag us away from our love
Just keep your head above
Just keep your head above
Swim
Just keep your head above
Swim, swim
Just keep your head above
Swim

You see I got this American Love
A brand new planet in my solar system
I kiss her neck but I just can’t look her in the eye
You leave for college at the turn of autumn
I spent the winter diving to the bottom
I kiss your neck but I just can’t look you in the eye
yeaaahh

Big hearts big hearts
Big hearts are for breaking
(big hearts are for breaking)
Whoaa oh
Big hearts big hearts
Big hearts are for breaking

You see I got this critical conscience
A brand new black hole in the solar system
I dig my grave but I just cant stand to step inside

And when they find out they’ll sound every siren
Break the door down to find the baby crying
You thought I knew Its just not right to tell a lie

Big hearts big hearts
Big hearts are for breaking
(big hearts are for breaking)
Whoaa oh
Big hearts big hearts
Big hearts are for breaking

And now there’s no turning back
In the face of the sweat we share
There’s nowhere to run
You’re so unprepared
It’s a new heart attack
Brand new bricks on my back
Don’t say a word they might find us there

You see I got this American love
A hidden planet in my solar system
Keep your eyes shut I just cant stand to say goodbye

Big hearts big hearts
Big hearts are for breaking
(big hearts are for breaking)
Whoaa oh
Big hearts big hearts
Big hearts are for breaking

. . .


It was last night
In an empty warehouse party, oh
And there in the blacklight
I could see the tatoos glowing on your body

Well, oh, oh oh oh
Oh, oh oh oh

She says to meet her there
Beside the power station, oh
And she said she'd let me stare
If the chemicals don't keep her waiting

Well, oh, oh oh
Whoa, oh oh oh

Well I'm always coming down from the night before where I left you
I'm always coming down, but I'm doing my best to get caught
I'm always coming down from the night before when I met you
To hear what gets you off
What gets you off
What gets you off

Red fingernail polish
Peeling like a sunburn, oh
That black designer dress
Looks better underneath our feet
Your knees on the dirt

Oh, oh oh oh
Oh, oh oh oh oh

Well I'm always coming down from the night before where I left you
I'm always coming down, but I'm doing my best to get caught
I'm always coming down from the night before when I bet you
To hear what gets you off
What gets you off
What gets you off
Yeah, what gets you off
Oh oh oh, yeah...

Well I'm always coming down from the night before where I left you
I'm always coming down, but I'm doing my best to get caught
We're always coming down from the night before when I bet you
To hear what gets you off
What gets you off
What gets you off
Oh oh oh...
What gets you off...

. . .


And there is no world wrapping me up
I've got a view from the valley
Living well but we're dying young
To bankrupt a blue sky

I saw the post office from the book
On my way to the west side
Going broke but I'm feeling good
I brought my girl to keep me with it

She's a suicide blonde
Dyed by her own hand, ooh.
Suicide blonde.
She's part of the big plan,
She's part of the big plan

Got a job at the DMV
And a call from my father
Got my news from the CNN
Like sheep to the slaughter

Watched the planes landing from the roof
Of my treehouse in Burbank
I had that dream I was taking off
I brought my girl to keep me with it

She's a suicide blonde.
Dyed by her own hand, ooh.
Suicide blonde.
Part of the big plan,
She's part of the big plan.

Ooh, la la la la...
Yeah yeah yeah...

I got a girl, got a girl, got a girl
To keep me with it
Got a girl, got a girl, got a girl
To keep me with it
Got a girl, got a girl, got a girl
Gotta keep me with it
She's a suicide blonde

Dyed by her own hand, ooh.
Suicide blonde.
She's part of the big plan,
She's part of the big plan, yeah.

Ooh, ooh
She's part of the big plan
Ooh, ooh
She's part of the big plan...

. . .


It started feeling like October
I got stranded on the road
You know where to find me
Anytime you want me Annie,
Annie, use your telescope

So they made my life into a movie
As if I could forget those years
But I know where the time's gone
Just how well my mind's been wandering
Annie, use your telescope

Telescope
Annie, use your telescope

When it's late, don't stop looking
Where my eyes turn to glass
When it's late, don't stop,
Annie, I will make it.

Hello? Is there anybody out there?
Hello? I'm only getting farther, oh.

It started feeling like October
Annie, use your telescope
Telescope

When it's late, don't stop looking
(Annie, use your telescope)
Where my eyes turn to glass
When it's late, don't stop,
(Annie, use your telescope)
Annie, I will make it back

When it's late, don't stop looking
(Annie, use your telescope)
Where my eyes turn to glass
When it's late, don't stop,
Annie, I will make it.
(your telescope)
Annie, I will make it.
(your telescope)
Annie, I will make it.

Annie, I will make it

She walks to the mailbox each morning at nine
Every day she begins she's always one day behind
At least when it comes to the mail

She sits on the balcony paying the bills
Her letters just hashing her cigarettes onto the sill
Every breath a little more pale

And the hill's still left to climb
It's just so

High
And I'm so
Tired
Come on look me in my bloodshot eyes
The clouds are all on
Fire
It's just so
High
And I'm so
Tired
Come on look me in my bloodshot eyes
The clouds are all on

Sits in his basement from midnight 'til four
Painting pictures that nobody sees from his days in the war
The canvas is painted bright red, red
He heats up the shower, he paces the hall
He'll scrub for an hour or more but he won't get it all
The paint in his fingernail beds

The hill's still left to climb
It's just so

High
And I'm so
Tired
Come on look me in my bloodshot eyes
The clouds are all on
Fire
It's just so
High
And I'm so
Tired
Come on look up at the bloodshot sky
The clouds are all on
Fire
The clouds are all on
Fire
The clouds are all on

We wait in valleys whiles the clouds come in
We see no shadows, 'cause the shadow's all there is
And we climb,
And we climb

But it's just so
High
And I'm so
Tired
Come on look me in my bloodshot eyes
The clouds are all on
Fire
It's just so
High
And I'm so
Tired
Come on look up at the bloodshot sky
The clouds are all on
Fire
The clouds are all on
Fire
The clouds are all on
The clouds are all on
Fire
The clouds are all on
Fire

. . .


I'll give you this confession
I am taking you with me
Where we can contemplate our chemistry

And your eyes were lined with questions
With the blood rushing to waste
To take this feeling with us to our graves
To our graves

I get the feeling we're so misdirected
I get the feeling we have lost control
Til then I'll turn you to the new religion
We're dropping out into the so unknown
So unknown, yeah.

And we won't wake up on Sunday
So I'm building us a church
Where we can sleep in
With the gods at work

And our friends will write us letters
They'll never understand why we don't call
We're hiding out until the empire falls
Let it fall.

I get the feeling we're so misdirected
I get the feeling we have lost control
Til then I'll turn you to the new religion
We're dropping out into the so unknown

If we have lost control,
We're drifting slow
Into the so unknown

If we have lost control,
We're drifting slow
So we drop out

And I'll give you this confession,
I am taking you with me.

I get the feeling we're so misdirected
I get the feeling we have lost control
Til then I'll turn you to the new religion
We're dropping out into the so unknown

I get the feeling we got disconnected
I get the feeling we have lost control
Til then I'll turn you to the new religion
We're dropping out into the so unknown

You're so unknown, yeah.
We're so unknown.
The so unknown, yeah

. . .


These hammers and strings
Been following me around
From a box filled garage
To the dark punk rock clubs
Of 1000 American crowds
And my friend calls me up
She says, "how have you been?"
I say, "dear I've been well,
Yeah the money's coming
But I miss you like hell.
I still hear you in this
Old piano, oh yeah."
She says, "Andy, I know
That we don't talk as much
But I still hear your ghost
In these old punk rock clubs
Come on, write me a song
Give me something to trust
Just promise you won't let it be
Just the keys that you touch."

Give me something to believe in,
A breath from the breathing
So write it down,
I don't think that I'll close my eyes
'Cause lately I'm not dreaming
So what's the point in sleeping?
It's just that at night,
I've got nowhere to hide
So I write you a lullaby
A lullaby

These hammers and strings
Been following me around
Behind passenger vans
Through the snow, dirt, and sands
Of 1000 American towns
And my friend calls me up
With her heart heavy still
She says, "Andy, the doctors
Prescribed me the pills.
But I know I'm not crazy.
I just lost my will.
So why am I, why am I
Taking them still?"

I need something to believe in
A breath from the breathing
So write it down,
I don't think that I'll close my eyes
'Cause lately I'm not dreaming
So what's the point in sleeping?
It's just that at night,
I've got nowhere to hide

To the sleepless, this is my reply:
I will write you a lullaby,
A lullaby.

Give me something to believe in,
So write it down,
I don't think that I'll close my eyes
'Cause lately I'm not dreaming
So what's the point in sleeping?
It's just that at night,
I've got nowhere to hide

To the speepless, this is my reply:
I'll write you a lullaby
A lullaby, a lullaby, a lullaby

. . .


There's a lot that I don't know
There's a lot that I'm still learning
But I think I'm letting go
To find my body is still burning
And you hold me down
And you got me living in the past
Come on and pick me up
Somebody clear the wreckage from the blast

And I'm alive
And I don't need a witness
To know that I survived
I'm not looking for forgiveness
I just need light
I need light in the dark as I search for the resolution

And the bars are finally closed
So I try living in the moment
'Til the moment it just froze
And I felt sick and so alone
I can hear the sound
Of your voice still ringing in my ear
I'm going underground
But you'll find me anywhere I feel

That I'm alive
And I don't need a witness
To know that I survived
I'm not looking for forgiveness
I just need light
I need light in the dark as I search for the resolution
I need light in the dark as I search for the resolution

Tomorrow back from now.
Honey I'm almost home

You hold me down
You hold me down
I'm alive
And I don't need a witness
To know that I survived
I'm not looking for forgiveness

I'm alive
And I don't need a witness
To know that I survived
I'm not looking for forgiveness
I just need light
I need light in the dark as I search for the resolution
I need light in the dark as I search for the resolution
I need light, I need light

. . .


I am looking for a sign
My spirit's faded
She holds on like a vine
Patterns in traffic
They sound just like my heart
Race in the dark
In time to catch you.
No one should let you
Go wandering off into the night
You're not an orphan.

I keep waiting for my breath
To come back never
So take what I have left
Patterns in traffic
That pulls just like my heart
Race in the dark
In time to catch you
No one should let you
Go wandering off into the night
You're not an orphan.
Right there to catch you
I won't forget you.
Now you're wandering to the night
But you're no orphan
You're not an orphan

I never thought the day would come
(you're not an orphan)
They tell me that you've finally run
(you're not an orphan)
I guess you always said you would someday
(you're not an orphan)

I never thought the day would come
(you're not an orphan)
They tell me that you've finally run
(you're not an orphan)
I guess you always said you would someday
(you're not an orphan)

. . .


I'm caught
Somewhere in between
Alive
And living a dream.
No peace
Just clicking machines
In the quiet of compazine.
The walls caved in on me.

And she sings
My bird dressed in white.
And she stings
My arm in the night.
I lay still
Still I'm ready to fight.
Have my lungs
But you can't take my sight.
The walls caved in
Tonight.

And out here
I watch the sun circle the earth
The marrows collide in rebirth
In God's glory praise
The spirit calls out from the caves.
The walls fell and there I lay
Saved.

The walls are caving in
As far as I can see
The walls are caving in
The doors got locked for sure
There's no one here but me

Beat my body like a rag doll
you stuck the needles in my hip
Said 'we're not gonna lie
Son, you just might die
Get you on that morphine drip, drip'

The walls are caving in
As far as I can see
The walls are caving in
The doors got locked for sure
There's no one here but me

I fought a war to walk a gang plank
Into a life I left behind
Windows leading to the past
Think it's time I broke some glass
Get this history off my mind

And what if we were married forever?
Like the past never happened
And time did not exist for us at all
I still think we'd still be traveling together
Through all kinds of weather
Everything's a piece of everyone

As far as I can see
Walls are caving in
Doors got locked for sure
But I see these doors have keys

Walls are caving in
As far as I can see
The walls are caving in
Doors got locked for sure
There's no one here but me
There's no one here but me
No one here but me, yeah.
There's no one here but me
No one here but me

. . .


I called Jesus but he didn't check his phone today,
Oh oh, there's my summer girl
I've been wanting her
I hear she's got a boyfriend
Thought I could leave her for a season but it just got cold
Yeah, it's a lonely hour in my cellphone tower,
Broken down transmission.

But I'm gonna take you to my boxcar on the beach
And I'm gonna hang the sun above your bed
And soak your hair in bleach

You'll be missed Miss California
You'll be kissed by only me
When they can't find you you'll turn into a mystery
but you're no mystery to me, Miss California

I called Jesus but he heard I hurt his little girl, yeah,
with my reckless stare, I've been so unfair
Misplacing my affections
She had a reason not to take me back into her care
Oh, I'm just a stray dog now, I can't beg or bow
Just give me some direction.

And I'm gonna take you to the mansion where I hide
and I'm gonna paint a diamond on your hand
And you will be my bride
You'll be missed Miss California
You'll be kissed by only me
When they can't find you you'll turn into a mystery
But you're no mystery to me, Miss California
Miss California
I'll be around, I'll be around.

You'll be missed Miss California.
You'll be kissed by only me.
When they can't find you you'll turn into a mystery
But not to me.

You'll be missed Miss California
We'll be married in the rain
When they can't find you I'm sure I'll be the one they blame
But they can't prove anything
Miss California
Miss California
I'll be around

. . .


I have become increasingly
Overwhelmed but not discouraged
And soon I'll leave the infirmary
Feeling well
But lacking courage
Courage

And now the rockets fly above
Passing over
Cape Canaveral
There's the woman with the drugs
In the café
By the launch pad
By the launch pad

And she is ‘gonna
Ring me up
On my Cellular Phone
So I know I'm not alone
In a world full of vampires
Come on darling
Talk me down
On that Cellular Phone
Because I can't get home
I'm a slave to the wires

I've done this before
I will do it more

I have become increasingly
Overwhelmed when
I'm in public
I'm not so patient when they stare
There's a fighter
Somewhere underneath this skin and bones
And do you know what I mean?
What I mean when I say that this girl
Has got a thing for my machine

And she is ‘gonna
Ring me up
On my Cellular Phone
So I know I'm not a lone
In a world full of Vampires
Come on darling
Talk me down
On that cellular phone
Because I can't get home
I'm a slave to the wires

I've done this before
I've done this before

But I have given everything and more
Sometimes convinced I have the world to carry
Every day is war
And rockets fly from dusk ‘til dawn
I won't be shaken
If ever there's a time
Where I am gone just know I'm waiting
For you to ring
For you to ring...

Me up on my Cellular Phone
So I know I'm not alone
In a world full of vampires
Come on darling
Talk me down
On that Cellular Phone
Because I can't get home
I'm a slave to the wires
I've done this before
I will do it more

. . .


Should the canyons burn
All night long like the 4th of July
We won't need an alibi
There's gas in the car
Hours 'til sunrise
And there's no guarantee
That leaving town's gonna set us both free
But stayin' here, it's just not what we need
Yeah, stayin' here, it's just not what we need

Because America shines, yes it does
In between the white lines where I found love
All alone on a road going nowhere
Going nowhere
Going nowhere
At full speed

And I have travelled far
And I've seen things that I'd rather not say
When you're travellin' it's better that way
The darker the secret, the harder you'll keep it
But it's no victory
Always running away like I do
Always know that I'll come back to you
Always know that I'll come back to you

Because America shines, yes it does
In between the white lines where I found love
All alone on a road going nowhere
Going nowhere
Going nowhere
At full speed
At full speed

Because America shines, yes it does
In between the white lines where I found love
All alone on a road going nowhere
Going nowhere
Going nowhere
At full speed
Alone on a road going nowhere
Going nowhere
Going nowhere
At full speed

And should the canyons burn
I'm catching right off the coast

. . .


I saw her wait
Waiting at the bus stop
Watching as her tears dropped
Like pennies down a well
Oh well
We can drink until the sun comes up
I never let a good thing go
So I'll stay here if you're not leaving

I am on your side
This house is empty
We could cross the line
And we could make a big mistake
The silence breaks
And you hear me say
Don't go so far away

You know I have to go

I saw your man
A fast car and a dark sun tan
You said he's in a punk rock band
Well baby, punk rock's dead
Oh well
We can drink 'til you forget about him
It's not like he waits up for you
I'm sure he'd do the same thing too

But I am on your side
This house is empty
We could cross the line
And we could make a big mistake
The silence breaks
And you hear me say
Don't go so far away

You know I have to go

I knew it was a crime
I did it anyway
I tell 'em we're like magnets
I tell 'em I feel no shame
If I crawl into your blood
Can I sleep under your skin?
Come on let me in don't make me wait

I am on your side
This house is empty
We could cross the line
Yes we could be making
A big mistake
The silence breaks
And you hear me say
Don't go so far away
