I love the dead before they rise. No farewells, no goodbyes. I never even knew your now rotting face. While friends and lovers mourn your silly grave.
I bought a Porsche. And I'm leavin Grand Rapids. Quit my job, quit my school. Quit this place. My mother cried. My father was fried. Hey, I've got no time, man.
I'm in control, I got a bulletproof soul. And I'm full of self-esteem. I invented myself with no one's help. I'm a prototype supreme. I sit on my private throne.
Now, let me take you babe, down to the river bed. Well, I got to tell you something that'll go right to your head. I got a line on you babe. I got a line on you babe.
Yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. . I can't wait to wake up in my very own bed. Far away from the madness and my poundin' head. The shiver up my spine and this feelin' of dread.
If I ain't cool. My daddy gonna send me. To Military School. If I ain't nice. My girlie gonna freeze me. With cold shoulder ice. If I'm real late. My teacher gonna use me.
When does a dream become a nightmare?. When do we do what must be done?. When do we stand and face the future?. When there is nowhere left to run?. . And you've got to learn just how to survive.
I'm your lover, I'm your brother. I'm your killer, I'm your friend. I'm your teacher, I'm your preacher. I'm the reaper in the end. . I'm your healer, I'm your dealer.
I was just a shadow. In the beginning. I was alone. . In the beginning, I was blind. Living in a world devoid of light. In the beginning. There was only night.
I got a ticket to nowhere. I got no respect for the law. I got no use 'cause it's all abuse. It's the cutting edge of the saw. . Ain't got no tiime for the future.
House of fire. House of fire, yeah. Let's build a house of fire, baby. Not one of wood or stone. Walk through my door of desire, baby. Come on in and make it your home.
Dear darlin' surprised to hear from me?. Bet you're sittin' drinkin' coffee, yawnin' sleepily. Just to let you know. I'm gonna be home soon. I'm kinda awkward and afraid.
I'm goin' to Chicago; that's the last place my baby strayed. (Hitch hike) Hitch hike (Hitch hike baby). I'm packin' up my bags, gonna leave this old town right away.
Hello Hooray Let the show begin. I've been ready. Hello Hooray Let the lights grow dim. I've been ready. . Ready as this audience that's coming here to dream.
Hey bro, take it slow. You ain't livin' in a video. You're flying low with a high velocity. No doubt, you're stressin' out. That ain't what rock n' roll's about.
I can't find your face in a. Thousand masquerades. You're hidden in the colors of a. Million other lost charades. In life's big parade. I'm the lonliest spectator.
Do a show. Save a child. Raise a million bucks. That'll last a while. Fight at parties. Buy a horse. Lose a couple. Win that big divorce. . I want to be in the headlines.
I'm a rock and roll vagabond. I'm a streetwise runaway. Sixteen when I left home. And I don't regret it a single day. I'm a sucker for a loud guitar. Got one tatooed on my chest.
You're with your baby. And you're parked alone. On a summer night. You're deep in love. But you're deeper in the woods. You think you're doin' alright.
Life. Coast to coast. White hot as a ghost. When you live. In a countdown. . Time. Is free as a jailbird. At least that's what I heard. When you live.
