There's a high wind blowin' and the stars are shining bright. Oh, what a night, this is gonna be. I think I'll let the world sleep without me. I got one eye open, one eye closed.
When you cast your eyes upon the skylines. Of this once proud nation. Can you sense the fear and the hatred. Growing in the hearts of its population. And our youth, oh youth, are being seduced.
Cold outside, but I don't blame the weather. No one's calling, no one's at the door. But I can't stay inside all day. Blinds pulled to the floor. . There's no blue sky in my town lately.
Well, you didn't wake up this morning 'cause you didn't go to bed. You were watching the whites of your eyes turn red. The calendar on your wall is ticking the days off.
Fee fi fo fum. Smell the blood of a gullible bum. Brain dead bored bought into the fraud. Bigger, harder, faster, more. . Trying to find some way of stopping.
Maybe from the outside. Things look all right. But you know it isn't so. 'Cause baby, on the inside. I spent all night. Counting reasons I should go. .
Arabia, Arabia, Arabia. . 6 o'clock in the mornin'. I'm the last person in this plane still awake. Y'know, I can almost smell the blood washin' against the shores.
Hundred miles an hour down a twisting turning road. Bottled up. shaken up, ready to explode. . I set the world on fire. I set the world on fire. . Tired of making promises I know I won't keep.
Mirror, mirror on the wall. You've watched me grow since I was small. So what will I regret the most. The things I do or the things I don't?. The deeper you peer into my soul.
I'm not gonna lie to you something is missing. We don't have to make believe nothing is gone. We've had the time to see where we're going. But we're still a long way off from knowing why.
You're floating down a tunnel in a little wooden box. You're cold and you're lonely and enveloped in fog. You've been pried open and left here to die.
Mirror, mirror on the wall. You've watched me grow since I was small. So what will I regret the most. The things I do or the things I don't?. The deeper you peer into my soul.
Dragonfly in a tidal waves. Eyes have come undone. Still the coastline's a mile away. And the storm's just begun. . Here goes nothing. Heard him saying.
I like you, I think that you're pretty good. But I think that you think, that I. Well, that I'm a bit undercooked. . I'm lazy, I play silly jokes and go over the top.
In my solitude you haunt me. With reveries of days gone by. In my solitude you taunt me. With memories that never die. . In my solitude I'm praying. Dear Lord above.
As I sat in the back of that old taxi cab. Waitin' for the evenin' to come. On every street of this city. I heard you call my name. . You're the strangest feeling I ever had.
Among the living you'll find the dying. Waiting softly to pass on. Why can't a love be like a spirit. As it floats up to the sky. . With the giving there is taking.
*******************. I followed that bead of sweat,. to the small of your back,. from the nape of your neck,. Lightin' it up, with every drag upon my cigarette..
The more I see, the less I know. About all the things I thought were wrong or right. And carved in stone. So, don't ask me about, war, religion, or God.
