That was you up on the mountain. All alone and all surrounded. Walking on the ground you're breaking. Laughing at the life you're wasting. . One, two tries won't do it.
To glitter. Like cities. breathing below. while lights mark time. in the lowest room. outside. the white man's death. in the hands of violence. are choking our breath.
So I'll write these words now. for you my friend. here after all this time. we may never sing this one. it's just here as a light to help you. When the power goes out.
Are we running so far from facing. The numbers who crash in an empty room.. False visions we search. And the reflections consume.. But the mirror is everyone's tomb..
The tyrants have taken our softest dreams. The tyrants have stolen our minds so it seems. The tyrants music deafens undetected are our screams. The tyrants take our bodies' freedom.
Are you a hard-faced boy with hooligan eyes?. Are your hands driven to murder?. The conscience they teach you to despise. . Inna world full of the sell-out condition.
Seeing changes in myself, I just can't believe. Experiencing my life with my heart on my sleeve. Open to this brand new world, I turn my soul inside out.
Well, out of love times we're now. Well, out of love times we're now. I love the way my woman screams and shouts. . I'm a rocker when I wake up. I'm a rocker when I'm sleeping.
Well, I got a low down dirty feeling. That I've been cheated on and lied to. If it's so then it's wrong, we've hung on for so long. Why don't we have that magic anymore?.
I'm hearing big things. Inside of my head. Dreaming crazy demons. Better stay dead. . Thinking downtown. But down on my bones. Walking crazy corners. No one ever phones.
Well, breaking rocks in the hot sun. I fought the law and the, the law won. Well, I fought the law and the, the law won. . Well, I needed money 'cause I had none.
It takes more time than I've ever had,. Drains the life from me,. Makes me want to forget,. As young as I was,. I felt older back then,. More disciplined,.
Everything has got a sense of permanence attached to it,. sucks you in and feeds you until finally you're used to it.. And now you're so dependent.. Now you're so defensive..
everything has got a sense of permanence attached to it. sucks you in and feeds you until finally you're used to it. and now you're so dependant. now you're so defensive.
Taking up my time again,. The one thing I can't stand,. The coffee and the conversation never ends when. All I really need to find,. Is one short clever line,.
I never to meant to make it any worse. What have I done?. What have I done?. I didn't know then and I still don't know now. Two years have gone by. Two years have gone.
I don't want this anymore. Don't wanna wanna give anymore. Don't wanna be.... Don't wanna be stuck here. I am.... We are not moving ahead. . I don't want this anymore.
I don't have the time. I don't have the time. Gonna get away too fast. Gonna get away too fast. I don't have the time. I don't have the time. . Get up, go ahead and find a way to be happy.
Good sense, innocence, cripplin' mankind. Dead kings, many things I can't define. Occasions, persuasions clutter your mind. Incense and peppermints, the color of time.
You probably wish you were anywhere but here. Remember this now 'cos it soon will disappear. You'll find yourself wishing, you're anyone but you. I'm starting to wish I were anyone but me.
