Woke up this morning and I had those Walking Blues (x2). . I wasn't walkin' nowhere 'cause I didn't have no floor!. . Staring over the edge of the bed.
"Amazing Grace, how sweet the sound,. That saved a wretch like me. I once was lost but now am found,. Was blind, but now, I see.. . T'was Grace that taught.
The first time I came over I was bitten by your dog. You weren't even there 'cause you were walkin' in the fog. I call you up and plead and beg and talk to your machine.
There is a place on the mountain near by. Deep in a cave but its up rather high. There in the darkness I safely concealed. All of the dreams that you never revealed.
A song I heard the ocean sing. A shining light in darkness deep. I prayed a prayer into the tide. And both they soothed me in my sleep. . For every season that has passed.
Mr. Palmer is concerned with the thousand dollar question. Just like Roger, he's a crazy little kid. I've got the time if you've got the inclination. So cheer up Palmer, you'll soon be dead.
Leigh Fordham sold me out. 46 days and the coal ran out. Please come 'round here another day. Sit yourself down when you're ready to stay. . She dug down when they took the town.
They're tyin' a blindfold cross my eyes. I rest my face down. Skidding on switchbacks near the sides. Gonna try to bust out. . Get up, jump out, don't wait, gotta get away.
Life in slow motion. Feet are in the clay. I'm goin' nowhere. Been standin' here all day. . I had a notion. There was somethin' more to do. As I watched the water.
My girl she's a good one. She's always on my mind. She is a rose and I am a stone. She's always poking her head out. And striking a pose. I'm always plucking her petals.
I used to lie to myself all the time. I was always over-reacting, screaming "I'm gonna die.". But now I'm five thousand miles from a head on my shoulder.
I was on my way to heaven when you died. I was racing up the express lane, I was cheating HOV. Lanes. I made it to the gat in record timing. I quickly threw my hazards on, no bother finding parking.
I remember you well at the Sun Hotel. Where we were waiting impatiently. For a decent night's sleep. . It's like I've landed in the rubble of my past life.
Alright, I'm okay. We did it your way. I never loved you anyway. You've got your problems. That's your problem. I never loved you anyway. . Alright, I'm okay.
We stumble and stare at the carnival lights that lit up New York City,. From the rooftop in Brooklyn that was covered in bad graffiti.. And then I let a thousand splinters pierce right through my spoiled liver,.
I wanna be more discreet, I want em all to quit following me. In the walls held captive, lives a mouse. I don't have the guts to kick him out. In the bars where I live, lives someone.
I remember when you came around. I was younger. Burning statues to the ground. Now I'm older and tired. I no longer see the differences. I remember the taste of the fruit.
I heard a ghost whisper to a teacher. He said "We're going off to war". I heard a ghost whisper to a preacher. He said "We're going to start a war". A newsman put a paper in my hand, telling me his truth.
Western wall's a jumbo screen. At the gate, there's an automated teller machine. Sir, empty your pockets, please. Before you file through. The king and queen foreclosed on their crowns.
I am a tiny fly, buzzing around in a field. Somewhere in the overgrowth of your memory. And at night you wander though, as the image of a. Former you, searching every nook and every cranny for.
