It's our daily routine work. To sail the ship on open surf. Waking up for daily chores. Swab the deck and man the oars. Always try to keep it neat. Our cabins whole and place of sleep.
High stung tension an American Night. Can't find a friend and it don't seem right. Want to rip through every face I see. Cause I'm standing here and they don't see me.
I can't get what I want. Stood up shot down and it's all happening again. Guess I gotta learn everything the hard way. I'll get right back up and do it all over again.
Woke up this morning looking at the screen. There's a couple of men talking, I'm not sure what they mean. There's a conversation many men running wild.
Well she moved back around here thirty five weeks ago today. Oh down the lane, at night she walks on the banks. And remembers how she dreamed of rowing away.
Van and Willie went out one night. Once they get out on the road. Well then everything is alright. Had to get away from the kids and the wives. Well they ran into some city boys that didn't walk just right.
There, on a lonely desert hilltop. The pilgrims huddle closer. Waiting for a sign, the coming silver shrine. The arc of space and time. . Truth, oh, the truth is never clear.
Well Billy rapped all night about his suicide. Said he'd kick it in the head when he was 25. Speed jive, don't want to stay alive when you're 25. And Wendy's stealing clothes from Marks and Sparks.
We live and die like all the rest. Every summer has it's sunset every year. Love and hope put to the test. Every grain of comfort holds the seed of fear.
Journey back to the dark side, back into the womb. Back to where the spirits move like vapor from the tomb. The center of the cyclone, blowing out the sun.
I wake in sweat, you've come to steal my life away. Some strange electric glow of artificial day. The power breakers close, the grid of darkness falls.
When shall we three meet again?. In thunder, lightning, or in rain?. When the hurly burly's done?. When the battle's lost, not won?. . A tyranny of souls that love has lost.
I want to live in the world, not inside my head. I want to live in the world, I want to stand and be counted. With the hopeful and the willing. With the open and the strong.
Come and see me. Can't you see me?. It's so easy. To believe in you. I believed in you. . Your attention, my addiction. Fear no evil. You'll be safe in here.
I'm gonna take these rocks and turn 'em into diamonds. Sell 'em on the corner, bring the money home to you. I'll work all day and set aside my pride. I'll beg, plead and dance, just as long as I provide.
Up above sitting on his throne. Gates surround the place he calls his home. For saints and crooks he writes the book. And every final page. Every answer, every age.
Pack the mornin up, it's gone away. Everybody here is wide awake. I'm addicted to your aging face. Little deaths and little lives replaced. . Seize the back-me-ups and climb the stairs.
Two kids in love.. They planned their life.. One day she hoped to be his wife.. But, from day one they talked about how. Their dreams might send them out away.
Friday night I'm with the boys at a local bar. Walks in this girl, so divine. I think I'm gonna stay a while. . She walked across the room with her high heels on.
Sora akaku someru kokutan no yami. Nomikomareta hoshikuzu-tachi. Hakanaku furitsumoru hai no yuki. . Mitsumeta nageki no mado. I never dreamed. Kooritsuku.
