Little things

There's so many things that we miss in our everyday lives
We're so busy hustling, bustling chasing far away dreams
We forget the little things
Like blue skies, green eyes and our babies growing
Like rainbows, fresh snow and the smell of summer
We forget to live.

Give us eyes like children so we live each day as others
We're so sure we know so much that we forget to listen
Then we wonder fickle things
Like cheap thrills fast fuel and constant consumption
Like TV, CDs and cars that speak our names
We forget to live.

There's so many things that we miss in our everyday lives
We're so busy hustling, bustling chasing far away dreams
We forget the little things
Like blue skies, green eyes and our babies growing
Like rainbows, fresh snow and the smell of summer
We forget to live

Softly

Softly kissing you as you lie sleeping
Breathing gently with you in your slumber
Your face is the picture of contentment
My angel's dreaming, my angel's dreaming

(and) I'm so happy with you
So happy with you

Slowly opening your wondrous eyes on me
Shining green and glorious in the morning sun
This moment what could be more precious?
May it live forever, may it live forever

(and) I'm so happy with you
So happy with you

Smiling on me your love gives me all the blessings of this new day
The heat in your skin caresses my senses in such a glorious way

Stand by you...

There were times I wasn't kind
And there were times I wasn't even around
And there were times I made you cry
So many times I had to say goodbye
When you wanted to talk...
But now baby I am here for you alone

There were times I didn't understand
And there were times I couldn't hold your hand
But baby now I'm here for you
'Cause baby I am so in love with you

I'm gonna stand by my woman now
'Cause I can't live my life alone
Without a home...

Believe...

I am you and you are me
Why's that such a mystery?
If you want it you got to believe
Who are we? We're who we are
Riding on the great big star
We've got to stand up if we're gonna be free

If you want it you got it
You just got to believe
Believe in yourself
'Cause it's all just a game
We just want to be loved

The Son of God is in our face
Offering us eternal grace
If you want it you've got to believe
'Cause being free is a state of mind
We'll one day leave this all behind
Just put your faith in God and one day you'll see it

If you want it you got it
You just got to believe
Believe in yourself
'Cause it's all just a game
We just want to be loved

The battlefield of love

I am a soldier
A casualty of love
I've been from heaven
All the way to hell
I've had a journey
Much more than I can tell
I've got stories
Much more than I can sell

All this mass confusion
Causes chaos in my brain
I'm on the battlefield
The battlefield of love
With all of the illusions
I won't ever be the same
I'm on the battlefield
The battlefield of love

I'm a prisoner
A prisoner of love
I have been captured
And kept underground
I have been tortured
But I don't make a sound
'Cause I know one day
One day I will be found

All my life

Is it the way that you feel when i'm kissing on you
Or is it the soul I can see in your eyes
The clothes that you wear or the smell of your hair
Or is it the way I can't sleep when you're not there

Is it the way that you feel deep inside
Or is it the way that I feel so alive
Your star and your flair are beyond compare
Or is it the way that we feel when we're on fire
All my life, I've been waiting for you
All my life...

...again.

I've been searching for you
I heard a cry within my soul
I've never had a yearning quite like this before
Now that you are walking right through my door

All of my life
Where have you been?
I wonder if I'll ever see you again
And if that day comes
I know we could win
I wonder if I'll ever see you again

A sacred gift of heaven
For better, worse, wherever
And I would never let somebody break you down
Nor take your crown, never

Phantom Walls

Sensed but unheard
As the curtain softly stirs
It is not just a memory
But it lives and breathes
Watching over you whilst you sleep
Kneeling beside you when you weep

Hey, don't be afraid
Don't try to run away
Because pain can be your friend
As it explains

The answers to your questions
Consoles you in blue reflections
Listens to your soul's confessions
Then leads you in new directions

So open your heart again
And feel the walls dissolve
Something's whispering to you
It's time to let go
Because the only thing that stays the same
Is that everything must change
Everything must change

Hey, embrace your pain
You cannot run away
And pain can be your friend
As it explains

The answers to your questions
Consoles you in blue reflections
Listens to your soul's confessions
Then leads you in new directions

And all the while that you were waiting
For love to keep the light from waning
It's pain that stops the heart from hating
That cures the mind of hesitating
That helps the soul in separating
From everything that it's been blaming
Everything's changing

nothing for free

I'm drinking dust
With eyes of rust
Tonight my tears might stain your wings
So flutter home
'Cause you're better off alone than with me...

So hide your face
And tie your lace
And butterflies across your cheek
Forget how soon
You'll become a fool for words when I speak

My hands are rough
My fingers cold
Your heart's so young and so naive
To ever feel
For a moment that I might let you believe...

I'll melt your smile
I'll tear your wings
I'll color everything you see
So flutter home
'Cause you're better off alone than with me

Flutter girl
You don't know what I've lived
You don't want to take what I give
'Cause I give nothing for free
...

Lost...

...I'm lost,
behind words I'll never find
And I'm left behind,
as seasons roll on by...

00:37...High and low...

Here I am
And beyond the reach of my hands
She sounds asleep
And she's sweet another know why
These dreams could've seen her
And I watched her slipping away
And I know I'll be hunting high and low

There's no end to the lengths
I'll go too high and low
There's no end to the lengths
I'll go too find her again
Upon this my dreams and I depend
And, through the dark
I can hear the pounding of her heart
Next to mine
She's the sweetest love I could find
So I know I'll be hunting high and low

There's no end to the lengths
I'll go too high and low
High...
Do you know how it feels to love you?
Do you know how it feels to love you?
High and Low...

00:33...

Lights go out and I can't be saved
Tides that I've tried to swim against, but you've
Put me down upon my knees
...I beg, I beg and plead

Come out of things unsaid
Shoot an apple off my head
And a trouble that can't be named
a tiger's waiting to be tamed

Confusion that never stops
Closing walls and ticking clocks,
Come out upon my seas
Cursed missed opportunities
Am I a part of the cure?
Or am I part of the disease?
...

00:27...

Stuck in a corner
are monkeys in cages
that don't have a number
to fight one another

Try to recover

Climb up the ladder
look up and you see birds
blind as each other
how long can we suffer?

WE'RE AS BLIND AS EACH OTHER

On the cloud that you're sitting
there's one born every minute
so much to discover
I've become a believer

Sisters and brothers
who fight one another
will mourn and deceive us
will find us and keep us

Take us or leave us

How soon is now? yeah
how long is never?
I'm nothing but normal
with something together

Come on and stick together

On the cloud that you're sitting
there's one born every minute
so much to discover
I've become a believer

....believing....

Today I've reached heaven.
But then, I just felt down, back into the ground...and crashed into pieces....
What will tomorrow bring to me....?
Every single day, it seems that the worst is achieved, that nothing more can hit me in a more effective way....
but then, then there's a whole new day...
...24 hours full of surprises...
...and then, the whole goddamn thing starts all over again...
What will tomorrow bring to me...?
When will this end...?
And will I be better when and if it stops...?
Should I continue to believe...?
Should I continue to strugle and wake every day with faith?...
...faith.....faith.....
Maybe faith lead to "heaven".....
...but, should we believe only for the things that "may be"....
...or maybe, should we "just" BELIEVE...?........
....
.....she loves me...she loves me not...she loves me...
...she loves me not...she loves me...she loves me not...
...she loves me...she loves me not...she loves me...
....she...doesn't know................
Well, I still believe so.....
...see you tomorrow....

Just a man

Sky is clear tonight
Sky is clear tomorrow
A star is out
I reach for one to sparkle in my hand
A star is out
I will not touch you, I am just a man
Sky is clear tonight
Sky is clear tomorrow
And every night I shut my eyes
So I don't have to see the light
Shining so bright
I'll dream about a cloudy sky,
"Man was born to love-
Though often he has sought
Like Icarus, to fly too high-
And far too lonely than he ought
To kiss the sun of east and west
And hold the world at his behest-
To hold the terrible power
To whom only gods are blessed-
But me, I am just a man"
And every night I shut my eyes
So I don't have to see the light
Shining so bright
I'll dream about a cloudy sky,
And every night I shut my eyes
But now I've got them open wide
...

Bluer than midnight...

Save me,
Save me, Save me.

The candles are lit. The curtains are drawn.
There's still no sign of rain nor dawn.
Our lips touch. Our limbs entwine.
But the ghosts that haunt me won't leave my mind.

Save me,
Save me, Save me, from myself.

One sin leads to another one.
Oh, the harder I try
I can never, never, never find peace in this life.
I ask myself where does lust come from
Is it something to yield to or be overcome.
I ask myself
Why love can never touch my heart like fear does.
Why can't love ever touch my heart like fear does?

Beyond Love

Move away from the window and into the light
There are some things in this life that you just can't fight
It's as if the spirits above have cast a little spell upon us
It's as if heaven above is beckoning us
So let us take off our crosses and lay them in a tin
And let our weakness become virtue instead of sin
Our bodies stand naked as the day they were born
And tremble like animals before a coming storm

Take me beyond love
Up to something above
Upon this bed, between these sheets
Take me to a happiness beyond human reach

The force of life is rushing through our veins
In and out like the tide it comes in waves
The drops of semen and the clots of blood
Which may, one day, become like us
With outstretched hands reaching beyond love
And up to something above

Before our juices run cold and our flesh grows old
Let me feed upon your breast and draw closer to your soul
Let me stay with you tonight and I'll offer you my world
I'll take you to the angels if you'll take me to myself

Take me beyond love
Up to something above
Upon this bed, between these sheets
Take me to a happiness beyond human reach

Beyond the grasp of lust
Beyond the need for trust
Beyond the gaze of the sick and the lame
Beyond the stench of human pain

...

Every day is lost as it goes by...

............

Flick your head and sighs but
So low you gotta get back up
And stay

Did you ever wonder why
I'm so concerned
With all the ways
He drags you down
Did you ever wonder why
I'm so concerned
With all the ways
And I'm thinking of a way to ease your mind some
I'm hoping for the day we'll build a home
So come

Think we're pulling it off some
It's slow but it's turning out
That way

Did you ever wonder why
I'm so concerned
With all the ways
He drags you down
Did you ever wonder why
I'm so concerned
With all the ways
And I'm thinking of a way to ease your mind some
I'm hoping for the day we'll build a home

...dressed up like Nebraska...

Trying to tell me something here
In this place
All of your demons rest
In my space

I dreamed last night
You and I were there
Old and gray
Holding tight
You were always so cold

But I can't touch you where you are
There you stood dressed up like Nebraska
Plain as day

It's being in the dark that makes me so
Paranoid
It's the feeling of a sort that just won't
Stay inclined enough

I could see your eyes tonight
Somehow try to set it right
I could change your mind to see things

I can't touch you where you are
There you stood dressed up like Nebraska
Plain as day

I can't touch you where you are
There you stood dressed up like Nebraska

Sad eyes...

Southern style
Things are slow
You’re watching all the speeding cars
Moving like you wish you could
But oh, it’s too bad
Cause they’ve drove away your happiness and good times

You’re so young
And so bored
You were staying out 'til late
Cause it was what your husband hated
But oh, it’s too bad
Cause he’s stolen all your happiness and good times

Sad eyes
You are the only one whose
Whose blue skies are gray
So don’t cry
You’ll be the only one to make them go away
Yes, you could make them go away

Took a lot of tears but all you had to find was
Sympathetic years, the ones you left behind
Took a lot of tears but all you had to find was
Sympathetic years, the ones you left behind

I’m gonna get you into the light
And I’m gonna find a way that is right
And I’m gonna get you into the light
And make it okay

Sad eyes
You are the only one whose
Whose blue skies are gray
So don’t cry
You’ll be the only one to make them go away
Things are gonna go your way
Yes, they’re gonna go your way
They're bound to go your way

Don't let go...

You play your stereo loud
You got your headphones on
I see you dancing around
To your favorite song
It's ‘Who do you Love'
I wanna know his name
And does he feel like I feel
Is he standing in the rain

I'm out in the street
The city lights above
It's the nighttime
Don't let go of my love

You've come a long way
From your days at school
I heard you're really living uptown
I'm just a downtown fool
And would it be all right
If I took you for a ride
Took you out on the town
Maybe someplace nice

Out in the street
City lights above
It's the nighttime
Don't let go of my love

And maybe later on
After the late late show
We can go to your room
I can try on your clothes
You know I'm not the kind of man
To come on so strong
But when you look as good as you do
I knew it wouldn't be long

I'm out in the street
The city lights above
It's the nighttime
Don't let go of my love

It's the nighttime
Don't let go of my love,
Don't let go of my love

...why...

Why won’t you tell me what
What’s going on
With you

Why won’t you tell me what
What’s going on
With you

Sparkling eyes
You’re trying to hide
I’ve seen those tears before I don’t think I like them

Give me a sign
Some kinda sign
To bring me back around to your way of thinking

Why won’t you tell me what
What’s going on
With you

Give me a sign
Some kinda sign
To bring me back around to your way of thinking

Why won’t you tell me what
What’s going on
With you

........

Why does my heart feel so bad?...
Why does my soul feel so sad?...

We should've been in love

You been dealing with all of these feelings
Like they got you believing they have no meaning,
But they do

Your mind's been racing, your heart's been chasing,
And you might as well face it, time's wasting,
It's true

Your life's been stinking, your heart's been shrinking,
And you're too busy thinking to stop
You blink and you're blue

Should've been in love
Should've been in love

I know how it goes,
So I just had to let you know I know

My life's been stinking, my heart's been shrinking,
And I'm too busy thinking to stop
I blink and you're gone

Should've been in love
We should've been in love
We should've been in love
...

"Hallelujah"

Well I heard there was a secret chord
that David played and it pleased the Lord
But you don't really care for music, do you?
Well it goes like this :
The fourth, the fifth, the minor fall and the major lift
The baffled king composing Hallelujah

Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah...

Well your faith was strong but you needed proof
You saw her bathing on the roof
Her beauty and the moonlight overthrew you
And she tied you to her kitchen chair
She broke your throne and she cut your hair
And from your lips she drew the Hallelujah

Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah...

Baby I've been here before
I've seen this room and I've walked this floor,
I used to live alone before I knew you
And I've seen your flag on the marble arch
and love is not a victory march
It's a cold and it's a broken Hallelujah

Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah...

Well there was a time when you let me know
What's really going on below
But now you never show that to me, do you?
But remember when I moved in you
And the holy dove was moving too
And every breath we drew was Hallelujah

Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah

Maybe there's a God above
But all I've ever learned from love
Was how to shoot somebody who outdrew you
It's not a cry that you hear at night
It's not somebody who's seen the light
It's a cold and it's a broken Hallelujah....

"Mojo Pin"

I'm lying in my bed
The blanket is warm
This body will never be safe from harm
Still feel your hair, black ribbons of coal
Touch my skin to keep me whole

If only you'd come back to me
If you laid at my side
Wouldn't need no Mojo Pin to keep me satisfied

Don't wanna weep for you, I don't wanna know
I'm blind and tortured, the white horses flow
The memories fire, the rhythms fall slow
Black beauty I love you so
Precious, precious silver and gold and pearls
in oyster's flesh
Drop down we two to serve and pray to love
Born again from the rhythm screaming down from heaven
Ageless, ageless and I'm there in your arms

The welts of your scorn, my love, give me more
Send whips of opinion down my back, give me more
Well it's you I've waited my life to see
It's you I've searched so hard for

...it ain't over 'til it's over....

Here we are (still together)(...)
We are one
So much time wasted
Playing games with love

So many tears I've cried
So much pain inside
But baby it ain't over 'til it's over (...)
So many years we've tried
To keep our love alive
But baby it ain't over 'til it's over

How many times
Did we give up
But we always worked things out
And all my doubts and fear
Kept me wondering
If I'd always be in love

So many tears I've cried
So much pain inside
But baby it ain't over 'til it's over

So many years we've tried
And kept our love alive (...)
'Cause baby it ain't over 'til it's over

So many tears I've cried
So much pain inside
Baby it ain't over 'til it's over

So many years we've tried
And kept our love alive (...)
'Cause baby it ain't over 'til it's over

someone else's song

I can't tell you anything you don't already know.
I keep on trying, I should just let it go.
I keep on singing, you're eyes they just roll.
It sounds like someone else's song from along time ago.
You already know the story and the chords are just the same.
You already know I love you, and I sound like whats-his-name.
But you can't stop me, I want you to know.
I know it sounds like someone else's song from along time ago.

Heaven help

There comes a time to be free of the heart
I wanna be ready, ready to start
On a love journey, got places to go
Made up my mind and I have got to let you know

Heaven help the heart that lets me inside
Heaven help the one who comes in my life
Heaven help the fool that walks through my door
'Cause I decided right now
I'm ready for love

A funny feeling's coming over me
Now I'm inspired and open to being
In a love place but it's out of my hands
I'm telling you baby that you got to understand

Heaven help the heart that lets me inside
Heaven help the one who comes in my life
Heaven help the fool that walks through my door
'Cause I decided right now
I'm ready for love

I can't see what's out there for me
And I know love offers no guarantees
I'll take a chance and I'm telling you something babe
I got to let you know

Heaven help the heart that lets me inside
Heaven help the one who comes in my life
Heaven help the fool that walks through my door
'Cause I decided right now
I'm ready for love, ready for love
Take a chance, take the chance on love

Lover, You Should Have Come Over

Looking out the door I see the rain fall upon the funeral mourners
Parading in a wake of sad relations as their shoes fill up with water
Maybe I'm too young to keep good love from going wrong
But tonight you're on my mind so you'll never know

I'm broken down and hungry for your love with no way to feed it
Where are you tonight, you know how much I need it
Too young to hold on and too old to break free and run

Sometimes a man he gets carried away, when he feels like he should be having his fun
And he's much too blind to see the damage he's done
Cause sometimes a man must awake to find that really he has no one

So I'll wait for you and I'll burn
Will I ever see your sweet return
Oh will I ever learn

Oh lover, You should have come over
'Cause it's not too late

Lonely is the room, the bed is made, the open window lets the rain in
Burning in the corner is the only one who dreams he had you with him
My body turns and yearns for a sleep that won't ever come

Sometimes a man he gets carried away, when he feels like he should be having his fun
And he's much too blind to see the damage he's done
Cause sometimes a man must awake to find that really he has no one

So I'll wait for you and I'll burn
Will I ever see your sweet return
Oh will I ever learn

Oh lover, You should have come over
'Cause it's not too late
'Cause it's not too late

Open your eyes....

Make sure the fortune that you seek
Is the fortune you need.

...how much difference....?

I will light the match this mornin', so I won't be alone
Oh, watch as she lies silent, for soon night will be gone
I will stand arms outstretched, pretend I'm free to roam
Oh, I will make my way, through one more day in hell

I will hold the candle till it burns up my arm
Oh, I'll keep takin' punches until their will grows tired
I will stare the sun down until my eyes go blind
But, I won't change direction, and I won't change my mind

How much difference does it make
Oh, how much difference does it make

I'll swallow poison, until I grow immune
I will scream my lungs out till it fills this room

How much difference does it make
Oh, how much difference does it make
Oh, how much difference does it make
Oh, how much difference does it make

Another lonely day

Yes indeed I'm alone again
and here comes emptiness crashing in
it's either love or hate
I can't find in between
cause I've been with witches
and I have been with a queen

wish there was something
I could say or do
I can resist anything
but the temptation from you
...
I would rather fall myself

so for now it's just another lonely day
further along we just may
but for now it's just another lonely day

yesterday seems like a life ago
cause the one I love
today I hardly know

so for now it's just another lonely day
further along we just may
but for now it's just another lonely day
...

...For what it's worth...

For what it's worth I love you
and what is worse I really do...

After all

After all, I was perfectly right
but I'm scaring close to insanity
and on a night like this
nothing stays the same
nothing looks the same

After all, I was perfectly right
though our relation just split me in two
and on a night like this
pieces fall apart
visions fall apart

After all, I was perfectly right
I have never been happy before
and on a night like this
I can hear the words
see behind the words

After all, I was perfectly wrong
though I thought I'd found love
and on a night like this
nothing could be worse
nothing could be worse

Beautiful

If you can depend
On certainty
Count it out and weigh it up again
You can be sure
You've reached the end
And still you don't feel
You know about anything

Do you know you're beautiful
You are, yes you are

You can ignore
What you've become
Take it out and see it die again
You can be here
For who's a friend
And still you don't feel
You know about anyone

Do you know you're beautiful
You are, yes you are

Innermost thoughts
Will be understood and
You can have all you need

Do you know you're beautiful
You are, yes you are

...

Come on, oh my star is fading
I swerve out of control
If I'd, if I'd only waited
I'd not be stuck here in this hole.

Come here, oh my star is fading
and I swerve out of control
And I swear I waited and waited
I've got to get out of this hole.

Come on, oh my star is fading
And I see no chance of release
And I know I'm dead on the surface
But I'm screaming underneath

Stuck on the end of this ball and chain
And I'm on my way back down again
Stood on a bridge, tied to the noose
Sick to the stomach
You can say what you mean
it won't change a sin
I'm sick of the secrets
Stood on the edge
tied to the noose
You came along and you cut me loose
...
And time is on your side, it's on your side now
I'm pushing you down and all around
It's no cause for concern

...on the bound...

All my life is on me now, hail the pages turning
And the future’s on the bound, hell don’t know my fury
You’re all I need, you’re all I need,
You’re all I need - and maybe some faith would
do me good
I don’t know what I’m doing, don’t know should I
Change my mind, I can’t decide, there’s too many
variations to consider
No thing I do, don’t do, no thing but bring me
More to do,
It’s true, I do imbue my blue unto myself,
I make it bitter.
Baby, lay your head on my lap one more time
Tell me you belong to me
Baby say that it’s all gonna be alright
...

...para ti...

...
 I know you may not want to see me
 On your way down from the clouds
 Would you hear me if I told you
 That my heart is with you now

 Did you find what you were after?...
 The pain and the laughter brought you to your knees
 But if the sun sets you free,
 You’ll be free indeed, Indeed
...


Amo-te.

Wish you were here

So, so you think you can tell
Heaven from Hell,
Blue skies from pain.
Can you tell a green field
From a cold steel rail?
A smile from a veil?
Do you think you can tell?

And did they get you to trade
Your heros for ghosts?
Hot ashes for trees?
Hot air for a cool breeze?
Cold comfort for change?
And did you exchange
A walk on part in the war
For a lead role in a cage?

How I wish, how I wish you were here.
We're just two lost souls
Swimming in a fish bowl,
Year after year,
Running over the same old ground.
What have we found?
The same old fears.
Wish you were here.

Breathe

Breathe, breathe in the air
Don`t be afraid to care
Leave but don`t leave me
Look around and choose your own ground
For long you live and high you fly
And smiles you`ll give and tears you`ll cry
And all you touch and all you see
Is all your will ever be

Run,runlike a rabbit run
Dig that hole, forget the sun
And when at least the work is done
Don`t sit down it`s time to start another one
For long you live and high you fly
but only if you ride the tide
And ballanced on the biggest wave
you race toward an early grave

Golden Brown

Golden brown texture like sun
Lays me down with my might she runs
Throughout the night
No need to fight
Never a frown with golden brown
Every time just like the last
On her ship tied to the mast
To distant lands
Takes both my hands
Never a frown with golden brown
Golden brown finer temptress
Through the ages she's heading west
From far away
Stays for a day
Never a frown with golden brown
Never a frown
With golden brown
Never a frown
With golden brown

About A Boy

I've been dreamin'
Of the things I learned
About a boy who's bleedin'
Celebrate to elevate
The joy is not the same without the pain

Ipso Facto
Using up your oxygen
You know I'm shallow
Calling out for extra help
You've got to let me in or let me out

Something to talk about
Yeah, something to talk about

"My heart would know"

I could say it's over now
That I was glad to see you go
I could hate you for the way I'm feeling
My lips could tell a lie
But my heart would know

It's a sin to make me cry
When you know I love you so
I could tell my heart I don't miss you
My lips could tell a lie
But my heart would know

I could give you all the blame
But I'm sure the truth would show
I could tell this world I found a new love
My lips could tell a lie
But my heart would know

I can't fool my cryin' heart
Because it knows I love you so

I could tell my heart I'm glad we parted
My lips could tell a lie
But my heart would know

"Solitude"

In my solitude
You haunt me
With reveries of days gone by
In my solitude
You taunt me With memories that never die

In my solitude
I'm praying
Dear Lord above
Send back my love

I sit in my chair
I'm filled with despair
'Cause no one could be so sad
With gloom everwhere
I sit and I stare
I know that I'll soon go mad

In my solitude
I'm praying
Dear Lord above
Send back my love

"The Nature of Virtue"

Don't change yourself to suit everybody else
Don't change yourself to suit everybody else
You lay staring at your ceiling through all of the night
And out to haunt you come the ghosts of your life
You bury your head in a bone colored cradle
But do you sleep with a smile upon your face?
They say into every life a little rain must fall
But your dream cloud has burst
And dripped all over your face
A sick body forms a sick mind
But you're duty bound to do what's right
Is that the oasis of light in the darkness of your life?
You can't admit, but you can't deny
A small heart, a spiteful mind
Are you good or bad you ask yourself
And do the things you do hurt the ones who care the most for you
Are you good or bad you ask yourself
And do the things you do hurt the ones who care the most for you
Don't change yourself to suit everybody else
Don't change yourself to suit everybody else...

"Tear in my beer"

There's a tear in my beer
'Cause I'm cryin' for you, dear
You are on my lonesome mind
Into these last nine beers
I have shed a million tears
You are on my lonely mind

I'm gonna keep drinkin' until I'm petrified
And then maybe these tears will leave my eyes

There's a tear in my beer
'Cause I'm cryin' for you, dear
You were on my lonely mind

Last night I walked the floor, and the night before
You were on my lonely mind
It seems my life is through and I'm so goddam blue
You were on my lonely mind

I'm gonna keep drinkin' till I can't move a toe
And then maybe my heart won't hurt me so

There's a tear in my beer
'Cause I'm cryin' for you, dear
You were on my lonely mind

Lord, I've tried and I've tried
But my tears I can't hide
You were on my lonely mind

All these blues that I've found
Have really got me down
You are on my lonely mind

I'm gonna keep on drinkin' till I can't even think
'Cause in the last week I ain't slept a wink

There's a tear in my beer
'Cause I'm cryin' for you, dear
You were on my lonely mind

"Miss sarajevo"

It's said that a river
Finds the way to the sea
And like the river
You shall come to me
Beyond the borders
And the thirsty lands
You say that as a river
Like a river...
Love shall come
Love...
And I'm not able to pray anymore
And I cannot hope in love anymore
And I cannot wait for love anymore

...thought #2....

..."nothing changes on New Year's Day"....
Não são os pretextos que originam as mudanças, é a VONTADE.
De nada vale a coragem, a determinação, os desejos, sem VONTADE.
Mais do que o sonho, a VONTADE comanda a vida.......
...e com vontade, não é preciso haver pretextos.....

...thought #1....

....o homem é o arauto da sua própria destruição.
Na ânsia, na esperança de alcançar o que deseja, força cada vez mais os seus limites...
...até se dar conta que ultrapassa não só os seus, mas também os do "próximo"...
até ser "tarde demais".......

...it's all in your hands...

I've been so excited since I knew I was gonna be with you
Now everyday the sun will shine on me from your eyes
I'm on a train to you and it's just not fast enough
Every second takes an hour, I can't sit still

You waited so long and so patiently for me to be
Sure I could trust the light in your eyes that shine
Now it's all in your hands and it feels so beautiful
Now you can lay them all on me as much as you like

Hmm the things that you do to me make me tremble
Just one look from your eyes make me weak
There's no greater love than the way I feel
Now I've let myself love you

You waited so long and so patiently for me to be
Sure I could trust the way that you make me feel
Now it's all in your hands and it feels so beautiful
Now you can lay them all on me as much as you like

Lay them on me baby
As much as you like
Lay them on me baby
As much as you like...
