Stumbling through the rubble. My heads in a spin. I hear them fighting. No one that no one can win. I'm to young to die. To late to live. As politicians do the thing no god can forgive.
Louie Louie!. We've gotta go!. Screwie Louie!. We've gotta go!. You know the pain that's in my heart. It just shows I'm not very smart. Who needs love when you've got a gun?.
No more school days. Packed my bags and I'm on my way. Summer seems so exciting. So electric and frightening. Wish you were here. Doing just what we did last year.
(know yourself). . This is our world, our future. These are our times. I believe we have to see. In silence there's no mystery. . The world is so busy talking.
I've been burning my bridges. For too many years,. Drowning the sorrow. Of too many tears. Women and whiskey. Are my only friends,. One gives me strength,.
Less yesterday and more today. I gotta get my head on straight. The tree trunks rot and people get caught. Buying bullshit we don't need or want. . Well full forests turn to desert's hot dried dirt.
When I'm alone, I sometimes get to thinkin'. How it's gonna be when we're gone?. Are we moving closer together. Or is it gonna take forever and ever?.
L is for the way you look at me.. O is for the only one I see.. V is very, very extraordinary.. E is even more than anyone that you adore can.. . Love is all that I can give to you,.
MMmmmMMMmmm.... Well it took so long for me to realize. That my destiny was right before my eyes. If it were up to me to travel through this life. I'd find an open space for me to live out all my dreams.
It said 3:30 on my watch. Big show don't start 'till 9:00. Thought a cold one sure would hit the spot. She started pouring shots. It was only me and her in there.
Woman lose my number. You can't get to me. My pockets ain't deep enough. Your eyes were seeing green. I caught you lyin', you're a cheat. Oh lord shame on me.
Two young lovers meet and take each others hand. They say I do in the name of the lord. Livin' as one givin' all they can. Then the pressures come and a child is born.
Just when you think you've got it figured out. It comes along and hits you in the mouth. You think your day can't get no worse. Your Heaven falls and hits you where it hurts.
Oh. Now when you think the time's flying. Take a look around. 'Cause babies are dying from disease. Sleeping out on the ground. . People never seen the tortured eyes.
Mmm.... I listen, and still I haven't heard. Tell me what is the word. And if I ever heard it would it be clear as water. Oh tears run down your face.
Oh yeah!. . Got a pocket full of memories and my song. Got to keep on movin' and rollin' on. When I'm playin' for keeps, I always win. Don't know where I'm going, but I know where I've been, yeah!.
Yawn, yawn to the detached now. See them screaming underneath. Fill your baskets up with dead fruit. Watch the poison trickle free. . Always something in the way now.
Wind yourself, wind yourself tightly to me. Drag yourself, nostalgia we're ready to leave. We'll ride this, we'll ride this easily. We'll ride this, we'll ride this surely.
This isn't a path that takes you somewhere. This isn't a plan that ends in something. Before it appears, you'll be left wide open. Alone with your crazy self.
