The road I've walked for my whole life. Has brought me to this crossroads. And I'm standing here beside you.. . I know you've never been someone. To take things on a leap of faith.
Look at you. You haven't seen anything. Your eyes so white and pure. Without a trace of red. No signs of self-abuse there. And no tears have yet been shed.
[m. Versailles/Roy/van Dyk: l. Roy/van Dyk]. . When we enter its domain. Will the answers follow. Or will the wind and rain. Predict tomorrow. . Or will they combine.
lookout little stranger now i'm comin for your head,. and when I get my bounty filled i'm leaving you for dead, dead, dead.. a heart of gold with words to kill,.
my eyes still burn from the bodies all around,. my ears still ringing from the awful sound of your last words, walking away.. still i'm left remembering the day you left me for dead..
we're screaming murder,. so thank you hero for death of rock & roll,. for relighting the fire in our hearts back to the days of bloodied up and broken bones..
on the black streets kill me quickly and try to forget me.. steal my home beneath my feet and hang us high and out of sight.. my blood, your hands: cut through the skin you'll see my blood on your hands..
in one shot you showed me what i was missing. and that i've got to make you mine somehow.. in one shot i knew it was you i should be kissing. and that i've got no regrets, no apologies..
from years gone by a light still shines,. keeps us side by side through separate ways.. six years pass by like a kiss and a smile,. but some things will never change. take me home or let me die..
now these winds take us away, to another place and time,. but in dreams as you sleep i'll find you through the darkness and the nite,. so know i'll save myself for you, as you still wait for me..
won't you help to sing this song for it's so hard to see from here. all the things we build today and all the hell that we create.. our eyes stay closed because of fear.
and on the day you die. you'll sit and smile and wonder why you never found the way,. your whole life livin MIA.. too many false starts and broken hearts,.
sex bought and sold so easily on their billboards and tv.. we're all so hungry, lusty eyed with shallow hearts and empty lives.. with endless love we left you sleeping..
blessed with the curse of the depression of our lives.. lost and forgotten we wait to die our last goodbye a day we greet with hungry eyes.. lost and forgotten we wait to die in the name,.
the day you walked away i layed here bleeding. while you were feeding on your loss of feeling,. through nites of sitting staring at the ceiling,. and i was always praying for your healing..
sing a song of dreams gone wrong.. i woke up and you were gone.. where did you go?. what did you say?. you never told me you were running away without my heart you left today..
[m/l van Dyk]. . Johnny knows why he was spared in Vietnam. God has a purpose for his sacrifice. Johnny knows David thinks it all will fall on him. But the message is clear and he knows he has a purpose.
[m/l van Dyk]. . Hiding in the theater, listening to Tom. Telling whitewashed lies about the China Pit. Whatever has happened, started when they opened it.
[m/l van Dyk]. . Years of writing books. Long behind him now. A nihilistic confidence and a smile upon his face. Johnny Marinville and his Harley through the desert.
Sometimes it seems this pain is all that I'll ever know.. The endless years on earth and not a single place that feels like home.. Between the guilty eyes, the crooked tongues and lies.
