Brother's Hand (4:22) Counting
stars on my ceiling and building a wall
That I use to hang pictures of what I once was
And the reason I've asked you here is not what you think
It was only to hold me up so I don't fall down
And the lives that they've promised us - nothing,never
And the riddles they told us, well I don't get it
Just a hand is enough to keep us together
On the outside everything's fine, we look
Way down inside, way down again
Brother I'm wasted, Brother I can't believe I'm alive
I can't catch the wind, but I've chased it
Brother I'm here again
Carry this thought with you even when I'm not around
All your patience will give you whatever you need
And the lives we made for ourselves we deliver
And we stand cuz we've learned not to crawl
And the cold breath of lonliness makes me shiver
Cuz without us, we're nothing at all, we look… Clear Blue (4:06) He said and no one listened
He means, he dreams, he screams and no one
Listens to him
Not gonna live & die at your feet
Not gonna sleep on ground zero anymore
Not gonna sing and dance on your street
And I can't be your freakin hero anymore
I can see you clear blue, I see right thru
Like a hole in the sky
If I've asked you a question the answer is why? Solution (4:18) I
know you can't get back in today
I know you can't live with a little bit of rhythm
But it's all in your head
I can, he can, you can, they can, we can
Shake hands with the man who has planned
To damn your fate
I'm not saying I know the solution
I'm not trying to give you advice
Nobody's trying to start a revolution
Maybe that would be nice
I know you live with a little bit of
Water but where's your bread?
I keep on, slamming it into a little bit
Of the old brick wall in my head
You're so up on life without your head on
At least you're blind to everything that's going on
And if someone should take the mask off
Your reflection isn't anyone you know Light (3:40) Have
you seen me? I believe in everything
And then I wore my riddle again…
Get yourself a little light, anytime, anyway
It's never too late to save yourself
Spend your lifetime running away
It's never too late to save yourself Mushroom (4:03) Yesterday
I thanked the sun
For almost everything he'd done
Cuz I know it must be hard, to make it
Green in my backyard
Saw a mushroom on a hill, standing proud
And standing still, he told me I would never
Be alone
Turn away from time my child
You'll have your day in the sun
You can run to the end of the world
I knelt down to pray, I asked for redemption today
But no one was listening
How many times round the sun must we go til we've
Begun to believe in an hour or two
Should ask for a ride, can't run, might as well fly
There's a reason I drown in a pool of myself
Everybody needs a piece of the time and if they can't have their own
They can't have mine, tell me where's your serenity
Yesterday they dropped the bomb, and I saw the mushroom come
And we laughed, and then we prayed, underneath the acid rain
And the cars stopped on the freeway, and the sun just disappeared
And my mother's face was frozen in a smile Shadow Child (7:39) When
I was young I saw a man in uniform
He asked me for a dime to get something to eat
I said, "Mister, you look like the man on the
movie screen, what are you doing out in the street?"
He said he lost his arm in Vietnam and "If you
don't know go ask your mom. She'll let you
know as she rocks you to sleep."
Hey, I heard you found the life you wanted
Hey, I'm not sure that this life's for me
Hey, I'm finding it hard to stand and be counted
I'm a child of the Seventies
When I was young I felt a burning part of me
Maybe that's the thing that makes me real
Or maybe that's just something I left open
With the latch key, left for anyone to steal
But if you don't know or understand
It just gets worse when you're a man
I guess I wish I still knew everything
When I was young I held my dreams in front of me
Now I pick the pieces up off the floor
Maybe that's the key to knowing what you are, or what you'll be
But that key won't unlock the door,
It doesn't matter anymore No Such Thing (2:51) InstrumentalI (4:21) I
will dance inside your head
I will paint your sunshine red
I will call on you to come
I am not the only one
I have been here before time
I will make you walk my line
I will bring you thoughts of grace
I will laugh right in your face
Believe in this salvation
and you'll burn and burn again
I don't need that deliverance
because I'm higher than I've ever been
I will quicken all your years
I will drown your face in tears
I'll know everything you do
But I can be destroyed by you
I have called your bluff
Because you were not enough
And I have turned away
But I will never…  |
