She Don't

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

Turn of the Century
03:52
|
|||
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!

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!

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

Eyes Half Open
03:33
|

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…

What You Are Looking For
03:36
|

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

Dreams & Bones

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
