Together
01:33
|
|||
in another universe
in another dream
in another lifetime
in another world
we'll be together
with love and affection
with hungry eyes
with our hearts aligned
standing still in time
we'll be together

Particle Craze
02:57
|
|||
I think I'm going stir crazy
I'm out of control
replace my veins with power lines
electrify my soul
I can't believe my eyes
particle craze
some folks think I'm crazy
some just think I'm dumb
but when my barrel's breaching bullets
they're handing me a gun
I can't believe my eyes
particle craze

watched you out my window every single day
I watched you but you never looked my way
I watched you out my window and I hoped and I prayed
that you'd be my girl someday
watched you out my window when the sun goes down
watched you and I never made a sound
I watched you out my window but you never turned around
even when my house was burning down
I watched you out my window in the wind and the rain
I watched you and I shouted out your name
I watched you out my window until the nighttime came
and all I could see was my reflection in the window pane
I watch you out my window as you walk on by
I watch you and I try to catch your eye
I watched you out my window and I hang my head and cry
'cause you just keep on walking right on by

East of Eden
05:00
|
|
||
stars are falling down on you
your dreams never come true
fingers always point at you
and everything you do
you've gotta get out of here
you've gotta go
sky is grey and the ground is too
features fade from view
someone turns and says to you
move your soulless shoe
you've gotta get out of here
you've gotta go
somewhere east of eden
somewhere west of well
somewhere south of heaven
somewhere north of hell
east of eden
we'll see you there
Forget about the blood you drew
for needles and for spoons
for dirty bread and for rancid stew
while bloodhounds howl for you
you've gotta get out of here
you've gotta go
somewhere east of eden
somewhere west of well
somewhere south of heaven
somewhere north of hell
east of eden
we'll see you there

Slip Away
04:35
|
|||
sittin' pretty starry eyed
confusion when you cried
I was only fakin'
showing for my golden bride
smiling at my side
was I just mistaken?
I must've been dreaming again
out in the fields again
when you slipped away
buildin' bridges, setting stones
laying down my thrones
what was I makin'?
thought I had some place to go
I thought things were moving slow
but I was only scrapin'
I must've been deamin' again
out in the fields again
when you slipped away
dreamin' again
lost in the fields again
I'm better on my own
but when I wander by your home
I feel like I'm breakin'
I'm not awake but I'm not asleep
and I'm not quite on my feet
why am I shakin"?
I must be dreamin' again
out in the fields again
lost in the fields again
as I slip away

In This World, Not of It
05:54
|
|||
pluck the stars out from the sky
sit alone and cry
people passing evil eyes
as you wander by
grimace when they call your name
and say it's such a shame
hands are reaching out for you
it's driving you insane
turn away
turn away
you're in this world
but you're not of it
they'll show you symbols in a box
and fill your bags with rocks
your flustered fingers feigning fair
from picking through the locks
but you honing your intelligence
and gathering your sense
living off the wasted ends
on your side of the fence
turn away
turn away
you're in this world
but you're not of it
it's letting out the broken dreams
it's breaking at the beams
it's dragging down the kings and queens
it's bursting at the seams
but none of that's on your side of the fence
none of that makes any difference
turn away
turn away
you're in this world
but you're not of it

Anarchy
05:20
|
|||
knick knack paddywack curse my bones
look at the police man raid my home
send your bloodhounds after me
the big bad burden to society
red tape number one prime suspect
hop scotch with a lit cigarette
gotta keep those silly rules from
poisoning my mind
yeah
anarchy
get tired of feeding fools and I'll
let the well run dry
yeah
anarchy
keep my toys in a cross bone bag
I tried to play along but it was a drag
get your parking violations in the mail
if you can't pay it then you go to jail
says the fat old judge who hates his life
been 30 years since he fucked his wife
keep your mind on prettier things
don't waste your time with the swill they're swinging'
if you don't like the world
then leave the world behind
yeah
anarchy
leave your loose ends behind
and let yourself unwind
yeah
anarchy
overdraft do the math put your pennies in a barrel
they wave their fingers and they say be careful
everybody's doing what they can
takin' your money and blaming 'the man'
when you never met 'the man' but you know his whore
no matter what you give her she'll ask for more
your brain's gone numb in the corporate hat
put down your pen and grab a baseball bat
pick your poison, pack your pills
and burn the bill
yeah
anarchy
if they don't move by will
then you shoot to kill
yeah
anarchy

Fade Into the Night
04:00
|

fade into the night
fade into the night
goodbye to
the skies of blue
when I see the sun rise
I cover my eyes
fade into the night
fade into the night
sleep all day
stay up all night
stay away
from the light
no more knocking on your window
no more howling at your door
I'll be creepin’
while you lay sleepin’
wondering why you don't want me anymore
fade into the night
fade into the night
said it's ok
I feel alright
as I fade away from sight
and no more knocking on your window
and no more howling at your door
I'll be creepin'
while you lay sleepin'
wondering why you don't love me anymore
fade into the night
fade into the night
goodbye to
the skies of blue
when I see the sun rise
I cover my eyes

Blood Country
04:50
|
|||
blood in the fields
blood in your home
blood under every rock
and under every stone
everywhere you look
and everywhere you go
there's blood and bloody bones
blood country
blood in the wind
blood in the sky
blood in your ears
and blood in your eyes
blood in the valleys
echoing cries
of blood and bloody lies
blood country
steal away
steal away
steal away
steal everything away
steal the children
steal the young
slay the people
slay every single one
and tell the kinsmen
after you are done
that we burned the village
and that the conquest has just begun
blood country

Wait Behind
05:14
|
|||
you don't have to wait behind
you don't have to worry about being kind
you don't have to second guess
you don't have to doubt yourself with every guess
and you don't have to stutter when you speak your mind
you don't have to sit and take your time
you don't have to take it slow
you don't have to stay if you want to gp
you don't have to pace yourself
you don't have to act like you're someone else
you don't have to stand our from the crowd
you don't have to say anything out loud
