TO YOUR SOUL
Stop me I am unfolding before your eyes can
Draw a picture within the vacuum that blows in this room
All my life I felt this pressure I can’t put this any better
All you want you need to know tell it to your soul
Bring me the cup that I seek the thing that bugs me
It’s just a trophy it has no meaning in and of itself
All my life I search for something little pieces let themselves in
All you want you need to know tell it to your soul
Stop me I am unfolding before beholding
All that I could within a heartbeat that stops incomplete
All my life I look for luck to lead me back to where I was
All you want you need to know tell it to your soul
WE’RE ACHING
You better be hard on me ‘cause I don’t deserve your sympathy
I would do the same for you not that I ever expect to Isn’t it broken isn’t it beautiful tonight
Isn’t it broken isn’t it perfect and it’s right For all the good it does when will the back of your hand break
The little silences part of the treatment that I take Isn’t it broken isn’t it beautiful tonight
Isn’t it broken isn’t it perfect and it’s right How well you cope your only hope is in between
How long you must have waited for I still can’t say no if you say so It’s not our fault we’re aching Who was a burden there it was a pleasure just to bear
Every second thought didn’t amount to a whole lot Isn’t it broken isn’t it beautiful tonight
Isn’t it broken isn’t it perfect and it’s right How well you cope your only hope is in between
How long you must have waited for I still can’t say no if you say so It’s not our fault we’re aching
WHEN PICKING FIGHTS
It was something at first sight and I fell easily
Into conversations where we never did agree
But it was funny we were cool with one another
It was growing into something altogether unpredictable
That’s what was beautiful When picking fights no logic lights up our way While the thoughts remain I was casting blame
And I spoke your name though it’s not fair
While the thoughts remain I was casting blame
And I spoke your name though I don’t care I could not predict which mood that I would find you with each day
It was weird but it was wonderful that’s all I wanted to say
We were both quick to draw conclusions that would shatter all illusions
Of how easily this came and how long it would be staying When picking fights no logic lights up our way While the thoughts remain I was casting blame
And I spoke your name though it’s not fair
While the thoughts remain I was casting blame
And I spoke your name though I don’t care I’m sure I tried to let things slide I fell inside of myself
When picking fights no logic lights up our way While the thoughts remain I was casting blame
And I spoke your name though it’s not fair
While the thoughts remain I was casting blame
And I spoke your name though I don’t care
BE NOBODY ELSE
You don’t have to hurt me do you
I no it’s not up to you but
If there’s anything I can do that’s right
Give me a little clue Is it over after all, Is it over after all, Is it over after all it always is It don’t have to hurt much does it
I don’t have to dwell upon it
I guess it was up to me to be
Little bits more than that Is it over after all, Is it over after all, Is it over after all it always is
Cause I know nobody else and there will be nobody else
I can’t have nobody else I want nobody else
I get nobody else I lost nobody else
I can’t have nobody else I see nobody else I’m bending over backwards that’s how it seems to be
It’s no more than a bad move bad for me
If you knew what you wanted you wouldn’t want it after all
Tomorrow doesn’t matter not at all
I’m following your lead here and you are leading me astray
I’m never far from where I want to be anyway
It’s going something like that but never how I planned
I’m making all these promises as you demand
That’s where I am
HOLY ROLLING
Was holy was rolling my future unfolding
The news caught up with me on yesterdays morning Smile please Patricia I’m here with you now
Take me back and more than ever before I will adore you more than ever before No place for you dear precious people to idle
In deep darker dreams is where someday I’ll find you Smile please Patricia I’m here with you now
Take me back and more than ever before I will adore you more than ever before
SAY SOMETHING STUPID
Say something stupid ‘cause I love to hear you laugh
Keep it low no one must no it that you’re all right you’re in between If nobody wants to I don’t know if I do it’s not like I have to have the blame
It doesn’t make sense when I stand to attention at the very mention of a name Say what you’re thinking You can tell me I’m on my way
There’s a word for your face light it escapes me for always now If nobody wants to I don’t know if I do it’s not like I have to have the blame
It doesn’t make sense when I stand to attention at the very mention of a name Will you not change I cannot say Nobody wants to
FALL DOWN AT THEIR FEET
Raise the dead all the memories that you have lead
Me to fall around and nearly get why I remember you
As fondly as I do Once again many idle words have raised a flame
And I snap around your bait in shame been trying not to show
Discomfort for you though Stay with me not a moment more than your need be
I have listened hours for little words and they bring the past
Which binds you to another soul I don’t ask that you let this go
The wonder is it’s so only in the moment that I let you go
Could I ever know what it’s worth now
Only when you’re ready will you let this drop I can’t stop you both
Be real we fly fast through these feelings got to find the ones we want
And fall down at their feet you no these gifts forever haunt All you have is all you want
WIRED FOR THIS
I’m living fear I’m living nightmares
With this in mind I’ve come to find nothings that frightening
So lighten up until you’re hollow
And float through death with every breath that you can borrow I got your embrace a hundred days before you came
Fell flat on my face a passing phase it’s comforting A state of grace I’ll keep it in mind
If it comes to pass with passing time I’ll keep it in mind
So lighten up and tread like angels
A footstep trace was left in place to lead the faithless
Come home I got your embrace a hundred days before you came
Fell flat on my face a passing phase it’s comforting You’re wired tonight You’re wired alright Lord I have these blistered feet from chasing you here and there
From chasing you everywhere
Lord where ever we next meet
I’ll find you eventually could be inside of me I got your embrace a hundred days before you came
Fell flat on my face a passing phase it’s comforting You’re wired tonight You’re wired alright You’re wired to me care to feel it this is what you’ve got
You’re wired to me start to feel it there’s nothing I am not
GRACE’S ESTATE
Rolling over I rolled out of the bed I am scratched and bled
I’ve been misled Curled up in a corner was her coat a big cat skin
Synthetic sin And once again I’m in flame I gather all of my clothes from the couch and the floor
It was polished wood the shine was good I’m half way out of the door as she stirs and calls
I must use the loo good day to you And once again I’m in flame And once again I find myself strung out and hung over
I DREAM OF DYNAMITE
Squeeze out clear water from our eyes this can’t have come as a surprise
Tick Tock a rich commodity can no longer spare much for me Every night you dream of dynamite my heart skips a beat while awake I lie Say I have words that might find you If you have half of a mind to
Listen a little and leap through walls that look brick but are tissue Every night you dream of dynamite my heart skips a beat while awake I lie Over and over I whisper all this to you wake up it’s over it never was an issue Will you hear me out will you listen I dream of dynamite
