She Don't 03:43
She don’t care Let me tell you she’s a wicked one She will leave you disappear like a setting sun With a smile she will paint up an illusion Spin you like a top there will only be confusion She don’t care She don’t care It’s not fair She don’t budge Let me tell you she’s a stubborn one She will tear at you every stitch will come undone Like a drug to add to your delusion You’ll be finding problems where used to be solution She don’t care She don’t care It’s not fair You cry and you cry All you beg and you please Asking everyone you know for some sympathy Oh you try and you try But it doesn’t change a thing She don’t care She don’t care It’s not fair She don’t love Let me tell you she’s a wicked one Every time you turn to her she’ll be on the run She will magnify all of your failures You try and you try you’ll never ever save her She don’t care She don’t care It’s not fair

You Only 03:26
Ooh she was contagious How could anybody blame us She came on in stages And stuck with me for ages You stay away far away far away from me There’s no room here for you and maybe that you’ll see You only come around to put me down Then you disappear out without a sound Oh your love is like a disease Ooh she was outrageous Irrational and complicated Tried my best to fake it But I just couldn’t take it You stay away far away far away from me There’s no room here for you and maybe that you’ll see You only come around to put me down Then you disappear out without a sound Oh your love is like a disease You got me beggin’ Please…… You Only, You Only, You Only, You Only You stay away far away far away from me There’s no room here for you and maybe that you’ll see You only come around to put me down Then you disappear out without a sound Oh your love is like a disease You got me beggin’ Please…… You Make Me Sick

Born broke in a scent Yellow smoke from a cigarette Worst part isn’t over yet Eyes glued on an accident Handed down a tarnished crown Handed down your broken crown Keep quite don’t make a sound Hold your tongue don’t make a sound Said I saw it with my own two eyes Said I saw it with my own two eyes The kind of love that’ll cut you down to size The kind a boy didn’t realize Momma grew up to be a faker Daddy grew up to be a taker Never saw it in your morning paper It was news to me At the turn of the century I was dancing with my misery And I held her up for all to see At the quarter of a century I’m flirting with my destiny And she brings me down to my knees Handed down a tarnished crown Handed down your broken crown Keep quiet don’t make a sound Hold your tongue I said shhhhhhhhh Said I saw it with my own two eyes Said I saw it with my own two eyes The kind of love will cut you down to size The kind a boy didn’t realize Momma grew up to be a faker Daddy grew up to be a taker Never saw it in your morning paper It was news to me At the turn of the century I was dancing with my misery And I held her up for all to see At the quarter of a century I’m flirting with my destiny And she brings me down to my knees At the turn of the century I was dancing with my misery And she’d pirouette for all to see At the quarter of a century I’m flirting with my destiny And she brings me down to my knees At the turn of the century there wasn’t much left for me And I found it hard to see At the quarter of a century there’s still so much left in me And I need you, need you To believe!

Fire! Fire! 04:30
Time machine Ms. Atom Bomb At any time you could go off I never knew when you would return I guess I never learn Crazy little girl with no alibi You got fiction for story you’re full of lies You couldn’t tell the truth if you found the time Your story’s different than mine There’s a fire fire burning her soul Getting higher higher out of control There’s a fire fire she’s losing hold She’s not right, no With a tell jokers play their part Yeah they take their hand and play their cards Get caught with queen high and get broke hearts Probably should have laid it down Like before like before like before There’s a fire fire burning her soul Getting higher higher out of control There’s a fire fire she’s losing hold (?) She just might EXPLODE! There’s a fire fire burning her soul Getting higher higher out of control There’s a fire fire she’s losing hold (?) She just might EXPLODE!

Carousel 03:50
Spending my days in my bed I sleep them off Waging the war it’s in my head I fight them off My head starts to pound From the ups and the downs It makes my head Go all around and round Yes it makes my head Go all around and round Pole in my back On a one way tracked destination I’m finding my head in my hands I won’t look up My head starts to pound From the ups and the downs It makes my head Go all around and round Yes it makes my head Go all around and round And round It makes my head Go all around Yes it makes my head Go all around and round and round and round And round

Crumpled sheets, sweaty bed, early morning And I see pigeons perched up on the awning I put my boots on, lock the front door I make my way to the local store With eyes half open My eyes half open Eyes half open Weathered streets, beggars line behind my back Watch the clock chime then it’s off to the el train I paid my fare gonna take my share Four tracks two are heading south With eyes half open My eyes half open Eyes half open My eyes half open Four tracks two heading, heading, heading South bound I think we’re going down Eyes half open My eyes half open Eyes half open My eyes half open Eyes half open My eyes half open Eyes half open We’re coming down

If I could find a shoe to fit my pride into I’d walk myself a million miles away from you You met a girl and she took everything you had You wanted love you wanted her so bad You gave your heart, you gave your spirit, you gave your soul She took it all and you bet she still wanted more You were a boy, you grew up fast, you grew up sad Your brothers and your dreams is all you’d have Where do we go from here? Where do we, where do we? Where do we go from here? Where do we? You spent your time reading books on good and evil The pleasure in your pain, death and fame Son you got, you got your big, big head But you don’t seem to use your brain Where do we go from here? Where do we, where do we? Where do we go from here? Where do we? I don’t know…

Fickle friend - bored again - no pretending, just make this Easy, believe me Broken vow - take a bow - put it out The fire that you’re Feeding - is gleaming deceiving, you’re leaving To search for something more And I hope that you find What you are looking And I know that in time You’ll find what you are looking for In my head – accidents - happiness I can’t supply you deny you Innocent artisan, when you get stuck on the Outside looking inside returning from the wayside You’ll find an open door And I hope that you find What you are looking And I know that in time You’ll find what you are looking for Love And I hope that you find What you are looking And I know that in time You’ll find what you are looking for Love

Inside outside bones to skin you stretch me I found her and I saw the face of God Time with you ain’t time that I spend wasted You keep faking I keep faking it Over and over and over and over again. We are made We are composed Of dreams and bones Inside outside bones to skin you wear and you tear but did you not care for me? I found her and I saw God - we fell in love, it fell apart Inside outside bones to skin you wear me out Everything was beautiful nothing hurt Everything was beautiful nothing nothing nothing Nothing ever hurt. We are made We are composed Of dreams and bones We’re all made of dreams and bones We’re all made of dreams and bones We’re all made of We’re all made of dreams and bones Inside outside bones to skin you wear and you tear and you wear and you tear through me I found her and I saw God, we fell in love it fell apart Inside outside bones to skin you wear me out Everything was beautiful nothing hurt Everything was beautiful nothing hurt Everything was beautiful nothing Nothing ever hurt. We are made We are composed Of dreams and bones We are made We are composed Of dreams and bones
