Things always came easy,. Or they didn't come at all.. Life was bright and breezy,. Endless summer; never fall.. . Now,. I'm in the old folks' choir,.
Fight, fight, go Athens go.. What a joke. That much I know.. Seems so strange, now its suddenly so complex,. And I have no clue. What comes next.. . Maybe just some more time, just a little more fight,.
Well I left my home down on the rural route. Told my pa I was going stepping out. And get the honky tonk blues. Stopped into every place in town. This city life has really got me down.
If home is where the heart is,. Then it's part hers and part his;. They feel like they can start this. Again.. Fought their way through yesterday. To get where they are today;.
She said someone had stolen her honor,. Seized it in a pre-dawn sneak attack.. Before she knew it, he was upon her.. Didn't take long to get her honor back..
When you're a young man, down and out. You really need someone to help you out. It looks like life or death is your only choice. It's really hard to see.
Fifteen red-eyed jugglers. Flew in from parts unknown;. Shared seats with ten smugglers,. Five pirates, and a gnome.. . Thirty-one crude cutthroats. All with a single aim:.
It used to make me so fed up. People always asking me. What will you be when you grow up. You're gonna need security. Spent a little time in school. Wishing I was somewhere else.
You know I'm pretty excited;. Never done any of this before.. Guess there's a first time for everything,. And there's so much more in store.. . Yeah, I'm pretty high on life;.
Got a burden too heavy. For the men in brown?. Did that crash on the levee. Flood your whole dream town?. Don't you dare drown in despair!. Handle it with prayer..
Prowling through the shopping malls,. Picking out some paper dolls,. Until someone hauls out. The giant scissors of time.. The giant scissors of time..
Got this chain letter in the mail,. A get-rich scheme that couldn't fail.. I knew it was legal, you see;. It was signed by an attorney,. And this is what he said to me:.
Never thought I'd find a girl like that,. Filling in for Jesus at the Laundromat.. Low-rider jeans and a cool floppy hat;. No one prepared me for a girl like that..
I know how you feel;. I can see your pain.. I heard your appeal,. Crying in the rain.. I can help you heal;. Help you walk again.. I know how you feel..
Do you know what they said to susan b anthony when it looked like women would never get the right to vote?. no. Are you still at it after all these years?.
Every time I close my eyes,. I'm falling from somewhere on high.. So, just before I fall asleep,. I pray the Lord my soul to keep.. . At least in sleep I never dream.
We live in that most tiny of times. We've chosen to label "The Present.". Refusing to heed caution's loud chimes,. We're late for life's class, and we're content.
To clutch at life, as in a dream,. To cling to the bubbles in it,. As the man, the straw, the stream,. Are eddies of the infinite.. . Artificial desperation sent you scurrying back to me.
Dwelling in dark places,. Selling vacant spaces,. Telling your disgraces. Leaves you cold and alone.. . Keeping the illusion,. Heaping on delusion,. Sleeping in seclusion.
Defiance burns in your eyes;. The fire is hotter than Hell.. Deep inside your mother cries,. Pretending that all is well.. Pretending that all is well..
