It's the twilight hour
As the sun goes down
I see a flatbed Ford with a scrapyard load
Rattle off through town

The railroad crossing lights flash on
There ain't no train in sight
A crescent moon will soon ascend
As day gives way to night

And I feel home
And I think how far away
I got from home
Back in the bad old days
But I'm done turning diamonds to coal

Now just before dinner time
This old drunk comes knocking on my door
Say he's looking for some girl who lived here
Twenty-seven years ago

The radio in the kitchen is playing
'Papa Was A Rolling Stone'
And as he strolls away into the night
And the streetlights flicker on

I get to thinking about home
And how sometimes there come a day
When I try to get back home
But all you can do is run away
But I'm done turning diamonds to coal

In love we find out who we are
In sorrow we abide
Our strength's revealed by what we build
From the broken things inside

But a day will come when you will know
Which way you must choose to go
To travel on and live alone
Or turn yourself around and try to get back home
Try to get back home

And now way up high two jet planes
Weave spider webs across the sky
As that flatbed Ford has dropped his load
Now there he goes swinging by

And the silence gathering 'round this house
Makes such a lovely sound
That I know for sure that I am cured
From turning diamonds, from turning diamonds to coal

'Cause I feel home and I'm done turning diamonds to coal
Yes, I'm done turning diamonds to coal
Yes, I'm done turning diamonds to coal
Yes, I'm done turning diamonds to coal
Yes, I'm done turning diamonds to coal

How we get lost
Going from here to there
Counting numbers in the air
Cheekbone to a cool stone wall

See the fireflies in this mason jar
Light my smile like a faded scar
We used to wonder who we are
These days we don't care

How we get lost, how we get lost
Going here to there
How we get lost, how we get lost
Counting numbers in the air

And at times
It seems like we've been here
Before but can't recall
The old familiar signs have disappeared

As in time we conjure from thin air
Maps we pray will carry us
Far away from fear
To some grace we engineer

How we get lost, how we get lost
Going here to there
How we get lost, how we get lost
Counting numbers in the air
Counting numbers in the air

Our life's a song like an old 45
Start to skip in the groove just to stay alive
But when you close your eyes what do you see?

Do stars align to light the way?
As the twilight fades to gray
Will you rise and shine away
Or will you simply one day disappear?
Or will you simply one day disappear?

How we get lost, how we get lost
Going here to there
How we get lost, how we get lost
Counting numbers in the air
I'm counting numbers in the air

We get lost, we get lost
Going here to there
We get lost, we get lost
Counting numbers in the air

Down at the drugstore where they sell medicine
Back in the corner stands a plywood Superman
He never saves nobody from nothing
He just leans against the wall looking sad

Me, I go climbing on my broken ladder
Aiming for high places but I never quite can
Lay two hands on the heart of the matter
Sometimes I feel like that plywood Superman, Superman

Last night at the truck stop the cashier at the diesel desk
Stopped to talk to me as I paid for my beer
She's single with two kids, says she loves Las Vegas
Her dream's one day some rich man will take her away from here

When she goes climbing on her broken ladder
She's searching for some sweet, far off promised land
But nobody never breaks free of nothing
Wrapped in the arms of a plywood Superman, Superman

Now my old daddy, he worked in a factory
And he used to beat on me with his mind not his hands
And though for ten years he's laid in that grave in Birmingham
To this day I still hear him saying what a useless thing I am

When I go climbing on my broken ladder
I'm searching for something but what I don't understand
Is how you can climb forever and still never reach nothing
Trapped in your life like some plywood Superman, Superman
Plywood Superman, plywood Superman
Plywood Superman, plywood Superman

Things that you know
Places you won't go
Faces where you see
Traces of yourself

Ooh, life's a big mystery
In the puzzle of history
I see pieces of heaven
In photographs of you and me

Over mountains so high
Through shadows below
The dreams you will dream
The love you will show

In the dust storm of memories
Of triumphs and tragedies
I see pieces of heaven
In photographs of you and me

From before you were born
Till you're old as sin
Your wild oats strewn
Across the fields of time

My one prayer will always be
That some day you like me
I see pieces of heaven
In photographs of you and me
Photographs of you and me

Oooh, it's been a long long one day
longer than a country mile
stronger than a hurricane
oooh, it's been a long long
day.

This red barn in the field.
Dusty winds blow round it.
It stands in its place
firm and tall.

So safe inside am I
that I can see
one hundred prairie miles
waving on endlessly.

And papa snores again
while mama lies awake
silently wondering
why that grey
cat that she loved
up and run away,
ten years ago one
dusty day just like today.

Long one day there I lay
under the big windy sky I prayed;
dear Lord make the flickering hands of fate
finally flip the page
to the yellow sun
of my coming age.

Oooh, it's been a long, long long day....
longer than a country mile
stronger than a hurricane.
Oooh, its been
a long long day.

Look at you
Feeling all good
You cant resist
You have to be all
Up in it
Dont it feel great
Talking Shit
I let it go.

[Chorus:]
Why dont you just leave me alone.
My heart is gonna break from the bone.
Holding on to many things.
Feeling all the hate it brings.
Why dont you just leave me alone.

What a puss
Think youre so tough
I take this shit
All i had was
Loving me
It was so good
But that wasnt enough
You ripped it away

[Chorus]

All the disrespect
All that this has meant
All the ignorant
All the voice you took from me
You tried to be the shit.
Nothin but heretic
Talking about how of me
How could you talk without me
NOW!!!

[Chorus]

Leave me alone!
Leave me alone!
Leave me alone!
Leave me the fuck alone!

Well look at this
I see clearly now
Look at this
I can feel it now
Happiness
Is seldom found
Pop the pill
I’m so damn happy now

Feeling things crawl on me
I need my fix today
This is way beyond me
I can’t live without you today

Well look at this
I see colors now
Look at this
I’m butt ugly now
Happiness
Is seldom found
Pop the pill
I’m so damn happy now

Feeling things crawl on me
I need my fix today
This is way beyond me
I can’t live without you today
You today, you today

I don't give out anything around me
Even all the love that surrounds me
Make me, Even me
I don't give out anything
I do this to shut off the voice
Worthy, worthy, worthy
I don't give out anything

Feeling things crawl on me
I need my fix today
This is way beyond me
I can’t live without you today
You today, you today, you today

Feeling things crawl on me
I need my fix today
This is way beyond me
I can’t live without you today

I feel you all around me
Your voice, it surrounds me
You keep telling me what I want to hear

You're beautiful, so talented, I need you, we got a thing
You ever need something I'll be right there

Fear is a place to live
Rip off the mask from your head
Show me the real face that you hide

I see you from a mile away
Keep staring, acting like you gotta say

You're beautiful, so talented, I need you, we got a thing
You ever need something I'll be right here

Fear is a place to live
Rip off the mask from your head
Show me the real face that you hide

Fake ass people surround me
They're always nice to begin
Digging their claws

Fake ass people surround me
Digging their claws right in me
They're always nice to begin but
I always get fucked in the end

Fake ass people surround me
Digging their claws right in me
They're always nice to begin but
I always get fucked in the end
I always get fucked in the end
I always get fucked in the end
I always get fucked in the end
I always get fucked in the end

Fear is a place to live
Rip off the mask from your head
Show me the real face that you hide

FAKE ASS, FAKE ASS

Fear is a place to live
Rip off the mask from your head
Show me the real face that you hide

Feeling out of place
Something must be wrong
Emotions in my space
Tight grip holding on

I cant control the events around me
I can't console the stress inside me
And once I turn off my brain
I realize I am alive

I want you to see
I'm trying to please
Everyone around me
I'm down on my knees
The stress makes me bleed
It feels like they're all stabbing me

Feeling out of place
Why must I hold on
Anger I can taste
?Time itself? is gone

I can't control the events around me
I can't console the stress around me
And once I turn off my brain
I realize I am alive

I want you to see
I'm trying to please
Everyone around me
I'm down on my knees
The stress makes me bleed
It feels like they're all stabbing me

What the fuck do you want from me
I am just a human being
Living my life to please everyone
I can't do this anymore
Being everybody's whore
Being everybody's whore
Being everybody's whore
Being everybody's whore
Being everybody's whore

For once, I'm gonna stand up and ??

I want you to see
I'm trying to please
Everyone around me
I'm down on my knees
The stress makes me bleed
It feels like they're all stabbing me

... being everybody's whore... [x3]

Lost and alone
I'm out of the stone
?? this process everyday
Nothings my own
The dreams that I've grown
I won't control and throw away

I need to make the decisions
I need to make it right
I need to lead the parade
Or this shit will fucking take my life

I want to kill the decisions
I want to make it right
I want to pass this test
And complete my tormented life

This curse is my own
It follows me home
Its like a child that wants to play
The thoughts in my brain
The subconscious pain
Makes me think why do I stay

I need to make the decision
I need make it right
I need to lead the parade
Or this shit will take my life

I want to kill the decisions
I want to make it right
I want to pass this test
And complete my tormented life

I want to kill the decisions
I want it to be right
I want to pass this test
And complete this tormented life

Happy, everything was wonderful
So happy, it's beautiful

I need to make the decision
I need to make it right
I want to kill the decisions
I want to make it right
I want to pass this test
And complete my tormented life
I want to kill the decisions
I want to make it right
I want to pass this test
And complete my tormented life

I'm happy, I knew you'd make it right
Everything is wonderful
