I could just sit around making music all day long. As long as I'm making my music ain't gonna do nobody no harm. And who knows maybe I'll come up with a song.
They took me to the battlefield. Saw the mushroom clouds. Said 'I can see the colors. Even when my head is bowed'. And they showed me the destruction.
Tell me now I want the answers for. 'Famine Starvation Bloodshed War'. All the blood that's run before. Why can't politician's fight their own law?. .
I'm in pain baby,. A little hung over maybe. Have you seen my head. Has anybody seen my head. Just when did I become invisible. Tell me when did I become invisible.
Who is that on the phone that you were talking so sweetly to.... Well, who is that on the phone that you were talking, talking so discreetly to.... Must have been another guy.
Chorus: Joe Young. When I was broke as a joke people use to hate on me,. Now Im on I don't need your money,. Homie imma be iight (be iight, be iight).
If I had no name. Would it be the same. Walkin' in the rain on my own. Tryin' to go home?. . If I was no one. Wouldn't it be fun. Never carin' where I should go.
We walked out in the snow. That fell so soft and slow. That day it washed away. And then out in the rain. So wet but without pain. That day it washed away.
Well, you could tell me. But I don't have to know. I watch you bend when. You try to keep it low. . It isn't even that it means anything. I think you're hiding something.
If I could wash away the clouds with a wave of the hand. If I could make the sun come out, shine its warmth down on the land. I would. . If I could stop you feelin' bad with a kiss upon the head.
Don't mind waitin'. Here, uncertain. Watchin' while the. Town keeps burnin'. Oh. . Used to runnin'. Round in circles. Losin' wind and. Jumpin' hurdles.
You go through the motions. Of a woman in love. Every kiss is a token. Every sigh is a bluff. Words confuse me but I see it in your eyes. You try not to show it.
These days I'm looking like a pitiful sight. Got a suicide smile on my face every night. I walk alone. Talk to myself. Shout angry words up to the sky.
I look at photographs of you. Sweat and shame till the sun comes through. I think of things I ought not to. . I've hung your memory on the wall. A life-size portrait ten feet tall.
The sun rises after midnight. Big dreamers never sleep. She takes a slow walk in the red light. Wishin' on the stars in concrete. Jet black roots under alabaster hair.
For your love. When I think about those nights in montreal. I get the sweetest thoughts of you and me. Memories of love above the city lights. Ooh, I tried so hard to take it.
I seen highways in the rain. Waved goodbye to midnight trains. I seen sweet dreams disappear. All my life. I felt cold wind cut my skin. Waiting on ships that never came in.
For every just man mocked and killed. For every drop of black contagion spilled. This is my house. This is my evil. For every battle lost and won. The spangled banners flapping in the sun.
Here I am a man in a new generation. Keep hanging on to where I belong. . I believe the world is one. Behind this masquerade. Reach out of the darkness.
A part of me you have. A part of me you hold. Apart from me you stand. And there's parts that you had stole. . Littering in the cupboards. Like some pieces of the puzzle.
