I thought I could live forever here on my own. It seemed things were so much better out here alone. A lonely dreamer, a non-believer, now. I'm living in the moment with the friends I love.
I followed you to killer's creek on motorcycle. The streets were fast and filled with flames. Kids were screaming. Talk to me, please i beg you. I'm a wounded man.
If i have my way. I'm never gonna leave lemon grove avenue. Where the summer breeze. Blows through the windows in the afternoon. And all the stars come out at night.
It was bound to happen and it happened today. Life turned to us to say, "I'm about to go your way". And it's a simple situation now that we became us.
Jesus are you real,. did we make you up. is salvation what you want or. is faith enough. do you know where I'm bound. you know who I am. are you just a word I use but I don't understand.
dustcloud comin' off an old dirt road. it leads up here, to this little graveyard. seven mats in a perfect row. under each slab is a police car. just because you say it doesn't make it true.
When I got off the bus it was six in the evening. Snow was blowing across the intersection. For the last six hours I've been lost in a book. So it took me a second to remember what I was doing.
Got so lost that I went to church. Sorry god but you made it worse. Made me sit behind the fence. Haunted by the evidence. I guess you don't want me to think so instead I'll dream and drink.
On the train ride to Paris. Or from sunny Barcelona. We rose up through the mountains. As the sun started setting. And the sea came out below us. As we rode through a village.
Oh Jesus, I love You. And I love Buddha too. Ramakrishna, Guru Dev. Tao Te Ching and Mohammed. . Why do some people say. That there is just one way. To love You, God, and come to You?.
How deep is that river? How deep is that river?. I don't wanna know where it's coming from. I don't need to know where it's going to. Before I place my trust in You.
I'm going back to New Orleans. Ain't turning my back on this world of tears. With a head that's heavy and a heart that's sore. Gonna swing my hammer, gonna stop this war.
This is not a conquering, I am not conquered. Even as the helicopters come for me. My wife sleeps in her clothes in the corner. I'm looking down at the police on the street.
You taste like wine, battle smoke, something crying. Blue, like oxygen, coming in and out again. Good god I want you, run hide and I? ll hunt you. Tracing your mouth like clouds across the sun.
There you said it, it slipped out. Now it's out there and i'm filled with doubt. Please say something to let me back in. What are you saying, what are you saying.
Sitting on a bench in an old time station. Waiting for a train to forgiveness. I've brought no baggage, i've come here alone. Looking for a way to forgiveness.
Spinning your umbrella over your head. You should be in bed but you're here instead. Walking with me towards a midnight swim. I can give you, baby, what you can't get from him.
All day, everyday. I swing my hammer to the metal on the northern railway. Always a movie playing in my head. A million movies starring you and me. Moonshine every night.
I'm just a student of this life, just like my father. I am a stranger to this heart, just like my mother. Oh, and brother you should know. That this heart's still filled with sadness and regret.
Nobody says the things he says. Nobody moves like he moves. Nobody makes me feel this way. I'm going to marry that boy, oh lord. I'm going to marry that boy.
