Well, that bullet in your mouth
Found the easy way out
Wont be long until you're sorry
The future was lookin' starry
Now your eyes are sweating doubt

You look good in them jeans
Do you know what love means?
They said just do the things you do
And love'll just come to you
They left out all the in betweens

[Chorus:]
I have found effort combined with indifference
Is the formula for success
And the prisoner most craving deliverance
Is the one proffered it less
Why wont you liberate me?
I'm a captive refugee
From this myth of happiness
Still a believer I guess

I don't always feel on
In fact I'm usually turned off
But I am drawn into your grieving
And you're smile's not so deceiving
I can take the faceoff

And he coulda, woulda, wasn't
I am, will, have, did
If tomorrow I died
No one could say I hadn't tried
Even succeeded, god forbid

[Chorus]

You say you don't have love
What if love truly is an action?
Cant learn to walk until you crawl
But why does a building have to fall
For a man to show compassion

[Chorus]

Will you believe with me? say yes

Coulda been a lawyer, a fireman
Engineer in cairo, ambassador to japan
Instead I'm stretched here, fire pit underneath
Steel strings bound my body, this metal grill to my teeth

In 20 seconds, can you scream something for us,
And in 6 seconds arrive at the chorus?
Cue smoke, flash lights, enter the fountain of youth
You can sell us anything but the truth

[Chorus:]
I am confused about "give peace a chance"
How much was music, how much makeup and dance?
Peace is a product someone plants in your head
Welcome to the state of music, population: spoon-fed

I entered the minefield, armed with something simple I wrote
But one of the three songs on radio exploded down my throat
A little bit queasy from the shrapnel I ate
Would it be too much to ask for a little soul on my plate?

What an adorable artistic dream,
Now everybody taste the machine
Industry's changed, it's not our fault
Can I pass you the sensory assualt?

[Chorus]

Thank you dolores for inspiring me
Thank you to lisa for your pure melody
In awe of joni and the words she commands
Breathtaking fingerwork from both ani's hands
Tracy for run- run- run- run- running and hope
The irish goddess whose voice rivaled the pope
So how the hell to fill the asics on me?
If I don't know who I am, everyone will tell me

[Chorus]

I never believed in love
I never believed in love
But it barreled through, and changed my view
When love took the form of you

We had a good long ride
Yes, we had a damn good time
Rolling along, unrestrained
To our melody, unchained.

I was betrayed by love
Something no one warned me of
Love pushed me down on bended knee
Love made a fool of me

So I turned my back on love
Yes, I turned my back on love
Stick nor stone came near my throne
While I spent eight years alone

So now I believe in love
Yes, now I believe in love
I’ll pin love down, make love see
Love better believe in me

I’ll pin love down, make love see
Love better believe in me

you say ‘so, convince me to stay’
i luckily am trained and say ‘stay’
you say ‘baby, don’t toe the line.
don’t you think that love should
be blind and unwise?’
you’ve been going, going gone
if only in my mind
and it’s taken so long but i feel light
you say ‘baby, don’t take your time
anymore...
don’t you think that love should be
pure and kind?’
just do what you want to do
go where we’re going to
just do what you want to do
and hope that love will follow you

Album : Come, Now
i listen to you talk about your
whistling band, ride your bikes to
bad racket, climb the ladder and
up on the roof we’re passing pipes
like we’re good old friends
but i know what i want
and i can’t help feeling it
slate blue eyes
noone ever tries to win me over
so thanks, even though it’s just
a little taste
slate blue skies
noone ever tries to stay up
later than they want to
even though it’s heaven
slipping into sleeping states
i listen as you try to take my
breath away
but it’s not what you do
it’s what you don’t say
if i never look over
you could never not stay
and when the sun comes up
we’ll have someone to blame
fight it now if you have to
i understand your mistakes
pretty soon it’ll all blow over and
i’ll go back to where i came from

you’re only here cause it’s cold
i bet my life on it
the friends i called didn’t know
where you are or who you’re with
could i be the one,
the one for you,
or is this where it’s done
that’s something new
if either one could admit
to what we did
we’d have it over with
but you’re only here
cause you’re insane
doing the same, same
blaming again and i walk into it
like it’s ever changed
wag my finger,
tell you why you’re wrong
then i keep on coming back and
i got no more songs
to write about it

be careful, it’s tricky
pop the top and suck it down
i’ve waited so long to tell you
i’m sorry that now i’m holding out
for luck
that i will meet you on the street
although you live so far from me
this summer i wondered
if you had company in your car
teach the streets in warm weeks
to somebody wondering who you are,
really,
cause you can smile like a silly kid
or make the fun out of any whim
change my life, add it up
if pines whip and i sit,
will it be enough?
what would change if you fell in love?
all that i’m dreaming of...

a kiss on the cliff is worth
ten on the lips and more
you seem like a shadow
but heal me enough to know that
the silly games he’s been playing
are saving lives and taking names
we are the lucky ones
you are so lucky, son
noone else is as lucky as...
so if you’re watching me,
keep watching
sit and tingle like you can’t stop
if you’re missing
then all you’re missing is you

everything’s going according to planned
when the light breaks in
and it’s blue again i can’t see him
wait for this morning
for wasting lives, i’ve been named
if it’s right, don’t waste
if it’s driving haste, you can’t feel him
now i’m calling out
it’d be wise to catch yourself
oh, so i’m bad but i retreat and whine
you see it, you’re mourning my life
you are stumbling now but i’m blind,
so blind when i’m caught anymore...
why am i waiting - so i could lie?
when i’m bored in the middle of the day
and i fall into dreaming
the paint’s snow white and before it
dries, you can’t feel him
oh, i’m lonely
but something keeps me going
in the sun i’m blind and at night i don’t
mind the faraway
stay if i’m down like i believe you to be
come,
stay if i’m down like i believe you to be
come,
stay upstairs
you’ve been lysed by her there
you’ve been taking my days
taking my home
taking my ways
like doubt could do

trip’s almost over
did you get a good look
at the parts that fall open
in my favorite book
chapters on romance are falling apart
a comforting friend for my lonely heart
since i knew you would
i take extra long in the shower
when you say you know me
it’s a bittersweet conspire
sometimes i’m a loser
i will stump you and confuse you
about things you cannot fix
sometimes i’m amazing
i will blow your mind, baby,
and that’s why you’ll stick to me
oh the energy that’s spent
to keep a girl content
