LYRICS

Song lyrics by James Greiner


The Last Known Survivor


I am the last known survivor of this human race

I guess I’ll get up from my bed and wash my face

Pretty soon I’ll venture out and take a look

The road is hot and dusty, but I need to move

The comfort of this shelter will not keep me sane

Won’t keep me sane


As I step out from my hideout, I can see the sun

I once read this is how the human race begun

But I can see the vultures circling high above

I wonder if I’ll never know the light of love

I guess I’ll find out on this journey in due time

In due time


I can see there’s no one on this road

I’m just a lonely traveler searching for someone

But please remember

I’m not the one who took the life from everyone

Please don’t curse my name, please don’t curse my name


On the ground

I can feel the sweat pouring down my brow

I think I need to drink, or I just can’t go on

Is that a real oasis in the distant field?

If I can crawl closer, what will it reveal?

A cruel mirage or an endless spring

Or an endless spring


I can see there’s no one on this road

I’m just a lonely traveler searching for someone

But please remember

I’m not the one who took the life from everyone

Please don’t curse my name, please don’t curse my name


I am the last known survivor of this human race

I am left with nothing, still I take my place

I guess I’ll speak my mind for those in outer space

I believe in peace and love so take your aim

You can find my traveling on this open road

On this open road


Why Didn’t the Animal Get a Judge or Jury?


Why didn’t the animal get a judge or jury before it met the blade?


“I’m just a simple cook

I never thought about it much

Life’s too short, you silly boy

Food traditions bring us joy

They’re really not the same as us

Don’t call me murderous

Now eat your fish, cus anyway, the Bible says that it’s okay.”


Why didn’t the animal get a judge or jury before it met the bullet?


“I’m just a proud hunter

I’m not an executioner

I’m doing all your dirty work

Thank me for the leather on your shoes

And all the meals that I provide

I don’t waste a single hide

Of any prized animal

Yeah, see the heads on my mantle.”


So why didn’t the animal get a judge or jury before it met the government?


“I’m looking out for you

So through farm subsidies

I buy up excess beef and pork

And I keep you safe from pests

Like lions, bears, and coyotes

I’m not a killing machine

I’m doing it for the greater good

And legally they’re defined as food.”


So why didn’t the animal get a judge or jury before it met the blade?


Angel


Angel

There’s a light that shines from you

And the only one who makes my heartbeat wild

Is you


You’re the best love I’ve found

Now I’ve been turned upside down

You left something in me

Something that makes everyone else

Feel empty


Angel

There’s a light that shines from you

And the only one who makes my heartbeat wild        

Is you


A thought has come over me

And I can’t let it be

I’d love to believe

That the light I see

Is meant for me


Angel

There’s a light that shines from you

And the only one who makes my heartbeat wild

Is you


I’ll be here all week

Oh, won’t you tell me when

You’ll return


Angel

There’s a light that shines from you

And the only one who makes my heartbeat wild

Is you


The night’s hot as a fire

And now I’m filled with desire

I’m wondering how soon    

I can be by your side

Once again


Angel

There’s a light that shines from you

And the only one who makes my heartbeat wild

Is you


I’ve Lost it Again


I’m the duke

Of the cringe

I conquer fear

And I thrash society


I’m the saint

Who’s avoided death

But I failed to live

So now I’m a loser


I’ve lost it, I’ve lost it again, yeah, I’ve lost it, again

I’ve lost it, I’ve lost it again, yeah, I’ve lost it, again


I’m the king

Without a crown

Take me down

Let the river drown me


Now I’m the god

Of the lesser ranks

My prayer’s a sin

So now I’m a free man


I’ve lost it, I’ve lost it again, yeah, I’ve lost it, again

I’ve lost it, I’ve lost it again, yeah, I’ve lost it, again


I’m the world

Here’s the fruits of life

Eat it quick before it rots away (rots away, rots away)


Again, again, again

Again, again, again


I’m the past

Who’s lived history

Now I’m at war

With today’s mob of fools


I’m the man

Who is quite shy

Now I’m afraid ‘cus I let you know me


I’ve lost it, I’ve lost it again, yeah, I’ve lost it, again

I’ve lost it, I’ve lost it again, yeah, I’ve lost it, again

I’ve lost it, I’ve lost it again, yeah, I’ve lost it, again

I’ve lost it, I’ve lost it again, yeah, I’ve lost it, again


The Universe 


You are the universe

Your eyes move space and time

You plan my demise

That’s why you’re perfect in my eyes


You’ve replaced other gods

I’ve made a golden shrine

You own my life

That’s why I call you my divine

You’re my divine


Touch me in the spring

A red dragon dressed in white


Set off the earth tonight

Make my eyes go blind

You want complete control

Come here and treat me like a swine

Oh, my divine


Touch me in the spring

A red dragon dressed in white


One leg in the flood

The other leg in the fire

Still, I climb your stairs

To see the chaos that you’ve begun

That you’ve begun


Vision


That man is green

That woman’s head is tangerine

But I ain’t seen nothing like your vision


There’s crazy Jack

Running with a house on his back

But I ain’t seen nothing like your vision


I swam for days

Through the deep blue sea

Yeah I’ll walk for miles

To meet your needs


What’s that in the sky?

In the shape of a lemon pie

But I ain’t seen nothing like your vision (alright)


I swam for days

Through the deep blue sea

Well I’ll walk for miles

To meet your needs


Millions said no

But one man said, yes, yes, yes


But I ain’t seen nothing like your vision

No I ain’t seen nothing like your vision

I ain’t seen nothing like your vision


In Us We Trust

 
The leaders we trust

They never learned much

We’ll shape our own choices in this world


Their ad campaigns

Will try to sell to us

But we have already bought into ourselves


Societies’ throne

Will crumble to dust

And open a clear path to the truth


The sun has come up

Just witness the sight

Take in the new faces of the morn


In us we trust (in us we trust)

In us we trust (it’s ourselves that we trust)

In us we trust (in us we trust)

In us we trust


Stay With Me


Stay with me

Oh won’t you stay with me

Stay with me

Oh won’t you stay with me


The wind is cold and heavy now

The trees have lost their leaves

Come inside let’s light a fire

You’re the best thing nature made


Stay with me

Oh won’t you stay with me

Stay with me

Oh won’t you stay with me


There’s a prison in this world

It’s called a lonely life

Come inside let’s talk this out

You are my only light


The lawmaker makes the laws

The warden locks the gate

But only you can make this choice

Yes, you’ll decide our fate


Stay with me

Oh won’t you stay with me

Stay with me

Oh won’t you stay with me

Stay with me

Oh won’t you stay with me

Stay with me

Oh won’t you stay with me


Chemical Operator 


It’s a summer day

All the flowers should bloom

But your land has been scarred

It’s a vision of doom


And just off your highway

By the dead end road

There’s a toxic bird crying,

“Man, you’re such a heavy load.”


Chemical operator

(Don’t you) Don’t you know that all your lands on fire

(Come on) Chemical operator

(There’s no) No humor in polluted fires


You’ve hid all your poisons

In the riverbed

You have no time to rest

There’s more pockets to be bled


You spew out your smoke

From your factory head

You spit into the water

Till all the living become dead


Chemical operator

(Don’t you) Don’t you know that all your lands on fire

(Come on) Chemical operator

(There’s no) No humor in polluted fires


You begin to climb the stairs

With a bottle of gin

You thought you saw the truth

But then it vanished again


So now you’re getting old

You’ve erased your troubled past

All the mess that you have done

Must be cleaned up by someone else


Chemical operator

(Don’t you) Don’t you know that all your lands on fire

(Come on) Chemical operator

(There’s no) No humor in polluted fires

Chemical operator

Chemical operator

Chemical operator


Can You See Me


I have contradictions

That no one really sees

My many sides confuse them

And they don’t notice me


As you stand beside me

I wonder what you see

So, I ask you truly

Can you see me


I don’t think like most boys

My mind moves differently

You won’t find the roadmap

It’s just my philosophy


As you stand beside me

I wonder what you see

So, I ask you truly

Can you see me


Hmm, hmm, hmm

Hmm, hmm, hmm

Hmm, hmm, hmm

Hmm, hmm, hmm


Now I ask you truly

Can you see me        


 

Come See the Doctor


Come see the doctor, ooh, come see the doctor, ooh

Come see the doctor, ooh, come see the doc-toe-ooh-ooh,


I am your doctor now

I come dressed in white

Sometimes you cannot see what is in plain sight

You worked for many years

Here’s Kleenex for your tears

I want to help you rest

Don’t work another day


You said I’m a glorified mechanic of the mind

Have faith, I could save your life


Come see the doctor, ooh, come see the doctor, ooh

Come see the doctor, ooh, come see the doc-toe-ooh-ooh,


You want to rule the world

With a cold iron fist

You need a dose of love

And then you’ll get the gist

You said your hero was

A robot with a gun

We need to flush that out

Fletch me a large bucket


You said I’m a glorified mechanic of the mind

Have faith, I could save your life


Come see the doctor, ooh, come see the doctor, ooh

Come see the doctor, ooh, come see the doc-toe-ooh-ooh

Come see the doctor, ooh, come see the doctor, ooh

I’ll fix your troubles, ooh, come see the doc-toe-ooh-ooh


You said I’m a glorified mechanic of the mind

Have faith, I could save your life


Come see the doctor, ooh, come see the doctor, ooh

Come see the doctor, ooh, come see the doc-toe-ooh-ooh


You said you never did think outside the box

Well start by wearing two different colored socks

What were you taught in school

To kneel and obey

There’s ointment on the shelf

It’s called “Think of the Self”


You said I’m a glorified mechanic of the mind

Have faith, I could save your life


Come see the doctor, ooh, come see the doctor, ooh

Come see the doctor, ooh, come see the doc-toe-ooh-ooh

Come see the doctor, ooh, come see the doctor, ooh

I’ll fix your troubles, ooh, come see the doc-toe-ooh-ooh


Hear the Sound

Shelly lies in her bed

A hazy, dreamy head

An ordinary day

Or so it seems


And then an idea hits

The missing story clicks

She runs to her laptop and types

In the morning light


Everyone

Hear the sound

Now feel it coming ‘round

Well, the walls will shake and the sky will hit the ground


Johnnie’s in his bedroom

He’s bored with nothing to do

Then a melody floats

From nowhere


He runs to his piano and plays

He finds the words to say

The feelings he’s kept for days

He sings his song


Everyone

Hear the sound

Now feel it coming ‘round

Well, the walls will shake and the sky will hit the ground


It takes so long to hear the sound (ooh, ooh, ooh)

So, try to catch it before it’s gone (ooh, ooh, ooh)


Shelly walks in the café

Still glowing from her day

She catches a sudden gaze

Across the room


Johnnie looks up and smiles

His pulse is running wild

He walks right over and says

“Are you feeling this too?”


Everyone

Hear the sound

Now feel it coming ‘round

Well, the walls will shake and the sky will hit the ground


Everyone (everyone)

Hear the sound (come on and hear the sound)

Now feel it coming ‘round

Well, the walls will shake and the sky will hit the ground


The Artistic Road 


The moon and the sun and the stars in the sky, they surround me

The moon and the sun and the stars in the sky, they surround me


Although I have my feet on the ground

I’m dreaming of another world

Now you might ask why I must go

This started off when I was young, with a question of why


Why, why, with a question of why, why, why


And now I can see where the questions I’ve asked have led me

And now I can see how the questions I’ve asked have bled me

I have inhaled the stench of the crowd

I’m ready to go and leave this place

Now you might ask why I must go

This started off when I was young, with a question of why


Why, why, with a question of why, why, why


And now I am finally free from man I am peaceful

And now I am finally free from man and it’s wonderful

Now you might say I’ve gone nowhere

Although we are worlds apart

Take my hand if I’m visible

This all began when I was young with a question of why


Why, why, with a question of why, why, why


The moon and the sun and the stars in the sky, they surround me (why, why)

The moon and the sun and the stars in the sky, they surround me (why, why)


Choices


You can choose to be the light

Or you can choose to hide out in the dark

And you can choose to make the jump

Or you can choose to cling on for your life


Choices to be made

You can choose one side or the next

And while you’re here

Lean on your heart

This is the best choice you’ll make


You can choose to tell them yes

Or you can choose to tell them there’s no way

And you can choose to love or kill

And you can choose to stand tall or obey


Choices to be made

You can choose one side or the next

And while you’re here

Lean on your heart

This is the best choice you’ll make


Choices

Choices

You can choose one side or the next

(Choices) And while you’re here

(Choices) Lean your heart

This is the best choice you’ll make


 

This is the Night


It’s funny how weak words are

They can be burned and trampled on

It appears they don’t stand a chance against guns and might


Yet the poet labors on

The words flow until the dawn

They won’t die, they carry the depths of our souls


This is the night where time stood still

The fiery eyes unseal the truth

And you and I endure in a long embrace


So, I humbly give a try

Truth be told, I cannot lie

There’s no words to express the beauty in you, my love


This is the night where time stood still

The fiery eyes unseal the truth

And you and I endure in a long embrace


This is the night where all the wrongs are rectified

The fraud of men and the fears of living are cast aside

And the gods breathe down upon your lips

And I will taste the sweetness, as it flows from thy kiss


You Are the Only One


You are my only one

You are my lover

You mean the world to me

There is no other

All I think of is you

In the night and the day

I know this can’t be wrong

You are my only one

You are my lover


I don’t have that many friends on social media

But the two of us can be best friends, so I’ll be seeing ya’

Oh!


You are my only one  

You are my lover

You mean the world to me

There is no other

So, I worked on this tune

Have a look at the words

I hope you like this song

You are my only one

You are my lover


I am not a wealthy guy, I earn a meager wage

But I will make you laugh with joy

As we grow wise with age


You are my only one

You are my lover

You mean the world to me

There is no other

All I think of is you

In the night and the day

I know this can’t be wrong

You are my only one

You are my lover


You are my only one

You are my lover

You mean the world to me

There is no other

So, take a hold of my hand

And look in my eyes

I hope you will say yes

You are my only one

You are my lover


The Highest Road


Some folks choose to punch and brawl

You might find them travelin’ on the low road

The dirty low road


Some folks choose to rudely shout

Cursing one another on the low road

The dirty low road


But you walk far ahead

You’re on the high road

You have a noble heart

You’ll never grow old

You’re travelin’ on

The highest road


Some folks choose to talk the trash

Watch your back while travelin’ on the low road

The dirty low road


A dynamited-lethal-trap

Some folks even bury that on the low road

The dirty low road


But you walk far ahead

You’re on the high road

You have a noble heart

You’ll never grow old

You’re travelin’ on

The highest road


Yeah, you walk far ahead

You’re on the high road

You have a noble heart

You’ll never grow old

Yeah, you walk far ahead

You’re on the high road

You have a noble heart

You’ll never grow old

You’re travelin’ on

The highest road


The highest road

The highest road

The highest road

The highest road (Please lift off my heavy load, so I can meet you on that road)

The highest road (Please lift off my heavy load, so I can meet you on that road)


Sad Lonely Night


Tonight’s the moment I’m alone

Like the dawn of creation

I thought I saw you dancing in my room

It’s only a shadow


This is a sad lonely night, this is a sad lonely night

But I won’t ask for sympathy

I guess it will take time


The moonlight falls where you once stood

It paints the room with your memory

I swear I heard you whisper in the dark

But it’s just silence


This is a sad lonely night, this is a sad lonely night

But I won’t ask for sympathy

I guess it will take time


I’m holding on in this sad lonely night

The truth is hard in this sad lonely night


Tonight I walk the streets alone

And the wind chills my bones

It feels like I can walk forever

To reach some end


This is a sad lonely night, this is a sad lonely night

But I won’t ask for sympathy

I guess it will take time


This is a sad, sad lonely night

This is a sad, sad lonely night

This is a sad, sad lonely night

This is a sad, sad lonely night

This is a sad, sad lonely night (this is a sad)

This is a sad, sad lonely night

This is a sad, sad lonely night (this is a sad)

This is a sad, sad lonely night


The Romantic Warrior


He’s the romantic warrior

Watch him fight

In the fields of noble love


Yeah, he’s the romantic warrior

In a world of frigid hearts that spit on love


Often he will play the fool

He’ll bring you red roses too

He’ll drown for you

In deep blue crystal waters


He’s the romantic warrior

If he’s going to die

It will be in the name of love (in the name of love, in the name of love)


Often he will play the fool

He’ll bring you red roses too

He’ll drown for you

In deep blue crystal waters


One day soon she will be free

Dancin’ ‘neath the linden tree

Until then he’ll keep his word

He’ll take each wound that’s meant for her


Often he will play the fool

He’ll bring you red roses too

He’ll drown for you

In deep blue crystal waters


Take A Ride


You’ve got to know

You’ve got to let it show

Don’t be denied

We haven’t got much time


There’s no fear, no fear inside

Well, we shouldn’t wait too long

Come on let’s take a ride


This is our night

We’ve got to make it right

We’ll light the sky

We know just how to fly


There’s no fear, no fear inside

Well, we shouldn’t wait too long

Come on let’s take a ride


And when it’s cold outside

Come on let’s take a ride

We both are bored with life

Come on let’s take a ride


There’s no fear, no fear inside

Well, we shouldn’t wait too long

Come on let’s take a ride


Come on let’s take a ride

Come on let’s take a ride


There’s no fear, no fear inside

Well, we shouldn’t wait too long

Come on let’s take a ride

Well, we shouldn’t wait too long

Come on let’s take a ride

Well, we shouldn’t wait too long

Come on let’s take a ride

Come on let’s take a ride, come on let’s take a ride, come on let’s take a ride


Free


Free, free, deep in our hearts we’re free

Free, free, when given the chance to see

As the sun begins to rise

There is nothing to fear

Here


Free, free, there’s plenty of room to breathe

Free, free, now is the time to believe

For the sake of all of us

Every life is dear

Here


If we are one

We won’t be afraid

Of the voices that rage

Or the demons they’ve made

Cus in the end

We’ve sure seen a lot

Now our minds are wide open

To see just what we got


Free, free, we’re floating above the trees

Free, free, now is the time to believe

As the sun begins to rise

There is nothing to fear

Here


If we are one

We won’t be afraid

Of the voices that rage

Or the demons they’ve made

Cus in the end

Yeah, we’ve sure seen a lot

Now our minds are wide open

To see just what we got


Free, free, deep in our hearts

Free, free, deep in our hearts

Will it be soon?

Will it be soon?

(Deep in our hearts)

Will it be soon?

Will it be soon?

(Deep in our hearts)


Love Is


Love is, love is a crazy high

Let it thrill you

Then kill you

Love is, love is a crazy high

Let it thrill you

Then kill you

Then kill you


My temperature’s climbing

My temperature’s climbing

I’m back in the ring once more

I swore to myself

I was done with love

‘Till it dragged me back to the door


Love is, love is a crazy high

Let it thrill you

Then kill you

Love is, love is a crazy high

Let it thrill you

Then kill you


My heart is in pieces

My heart is in pieces

I’m clearing the mess from my floor

I want to confess this hard truth to you

But now I can’t let you go


Love is, love is a crazy high

Let it thrill you

Then kill you

Love is, love is a crazy high

Let it thrill you

Then kill you

Then kill you


Love is, love is, love is, love is

A crazy high

‘Cus one day you’re flying

And then the next day you crash


Love is, love is a crazy high

Let it thrill you

Then kill you

Love is, love is a crazy high

Let it thrill you

Then kill you


Your love is a dream

But it’s killing me

I might have to give up this struggle     

I’m leaving tomorrow

But we still can text

Maybe I can start to breathe


Love is, love is a crazy high

Let it thrill you

Then kill you

Love is, love is a crazy high

Let it thrill you

Then kill you

Then kill you

Then kill you

Then kill you


Precious Love


We’re out of time

And we’re out of love

It’s time you grabbed your things

And hit the road

I don’t wanna be cruel

That’s just not my style

But I’ve been thinking

This for quite a while

Now I wish that things had turned out differently

But it’s clear to me

This had to be


You said you would give me all your precious love

But I guess you never learned the meaning of love

You said you would give me all your precious love

But I guess you never learned the meaning of love


Now it feels like love

Has passed us by

I don’t want to argue

No need to cry

I don’t want to dwell

On bad thoughts or hate

Don’t wanna be petty

I won’t take the bait


You said you would give me all your precious love

But I guess you never learned the meaning of love

You said you would give me all your precious love

But I guess you never learned the meaning of love


I heard you were talking lies behind my back

And lies are a hard habit to break

I think that I’ve finally made the right choice

Now I’m letting go of this old love


Now I go to sleep

On my side of the bed

I grab any pillow

To rest my head

Sometimes I read

And sometimes I write

To be quite honest, I just do what I like

But I do hope one day a true love will come along

At least once more

Before I am gone          


You said you would give me all your precious love

But I guess you never learned the meaning of love

You said you would give me all your precious love

But I guess you never learned the meaning of love


 

The Trial


The mouths of worms are feeding on our flesh

Our skin of frost is melting on your dress

The crowd has gathered and they ask for blood

We’re armed with love


Lay down your sleepy eyes

You know that I’ll be with you when you rise

To live on and be one


The hour has come for us to stand as two

Our naked flesh bares all the scars they drew

The hypocrites will tell their filthy lies

But they can’t break our minds


Lay down your sleepy eyes

You know that I’ll be with you when you rise

To live on and be one


Lay down your sleepy eyes

You know that I’ll be with you when you rise

To live on and be one


Lay down your sleepy eyes

Our torn-up flesh will breathe the words we’ve cried

So be strong

My love


The hypocrites will tell their filthy lies

The crowd destroys what they despise

The trial has ended as we stand as two

The injustice of our fate makes life renew


We’re Hypnotized by a Monster


Militarism, nationalism, and patriotism too

All of them well-advertised and taught in every school

They bring on fear and hate

They’ll never make us great

But I’m afraid we’ve fallen under lies


We’re hypnotized by a monster (monster)

We’re hypnotized by a monster (monster)

We’re hypnotized by a monster (monster)

We’re hypnotized by a monster (monster)


We are taught the heroes are the ones who drop the bombs

And these heroes must obey when the killing orders come

This maddened atmosphere

Should bring us all to tears

But the mob is chanting victory


We’re hypnotized by a monster (monster)

We’re hypnotized by a monster (monster)

We’re hypnotized by a monster (monster)

We’re hypnotized by a monster (monster)


All the subtle violence that has muddied up our scene

Yelling, screaming, hating races, acting rude and mean

And all the greed and spite

Will darken the brightest lights

Enter the next grifter right on cue


We’re hypnotized by a monster (monster)

We’re hypnotized by a monster (monster)

We’re hypnotized by a monster (monster)

We’re hypnotized by a monster (monster)


Don’t think of me as a father, brother, nephew, or your son

I am just a messenger who tells you what’s been done

It’s all in history

Good books and philosophy

Is it true that everyone’s asleep?


We’re hypnotized by a monster (monster)

We’re hypnotized by a monster (monster)

We’re hypnotized by a monster (monster)

We’re hypnotized by a monster (monster)


Begin Today


My past

Is over now

And next week

Is far too long


So I will sing (so I will sing)

This glad refrain (this glad refrain)


Begin today (begin today)

I’ll begin today


I’ve changed (I’ve changed)

My empty scene

My Fall (my Fall)

Has turned to Spring


So I will sing (so I will sing)

This glad refrain (this glad refrain)


Begin today (begin today)

I’ll begin today


My life was lost and hopeless

So I stopped fighting life


Begin today

Begin today

Begin today (begin)

Begin today (begin)


Calling All Fallen Lovers


Calling all fallen lovers, I’m one of the fallen ones too

There’s a pit in my stomach that nearly broke me in two


Calling all fallen lovers

Are you lonely like me?

Raise your hand if you see me

Turn away if you must


And now I feel my teardrops

Raining down forever


Calling all fallen lovers who lost themselves in the dark night

Someone sent down a long rope so please grab onto it now


Calling all fallen lovers

Are you lonely like me?

Raise your hand if you see me

Turn away if you must


And now I feel my teardrops

Raining down forever


Calling all fallen lovers

Calling all fallen lovers

Calling (calling all fallen lovers)

All fallen lovers (come and show me your scars)

Calling (calling all fallen lovers)

All fallen lovers (come and show me your scars)

Calling (calling all fallen lovers)

All fallen lovers (come and show me your scars)


“Paranoid” 

Where are they flying today?

Where are they flying today?

They’re watching above my house

They’re quieter than a mouse


They’ve started to live in my brain

They’ve started to live in my brain

Now monkey see monkey do

Obey is their golden rule


Catch me now please I’m beginning to fall

Under the lights where the shadows all grow

Catch me now please I’m beginning to fall

Under the lights and the lights are so low


All my sunlight is fading fast

All my sunlight is fading fast

I might live for another day

If the sun will come out and stay


I am going to climb all their walls

I am going to climb all their walls

On the border of their estate

And my only thought is─ escape!


Catch me now please I’m beginning to fall

Under the lights where the shadows all grow

Catch me now please I’m beginning to fall

Under the lights and the lights are so low


I’ve already said my goodbyes

I’ve already said my goodbyes

‘Cus the town’s had enough of me

Maybe now I’ll be truly free


Catch me now please I’m beginning to fall

Under the lights where the shadows all grow

Catch me now please I’m beginning to fall

Under the lights and the lights are so low


There’s a rumor above

There’s a rumor above

There’s a rumor above the house


Why Should I Cry


Why should I, why should I cry

Why should I, why should I cry

Why should I, why should I cry

Why should I, why should I cry


I have no regrets that we met

You filled my nights with wonderment

So, if I see you walking on the beach

I’ll tip my sunhat and say hi


Why should I, why should I cry

Why should I, why should I cry

Why should I, why should I cry

Why should I, why should I cry


I wonder if you’ve found another lover

And he kisses you softly

I’ll tell myself that I must carry on

I can make it through the darkness


Why should I, why should I cry

Why should I, why should I cry

Why should I, why should I cry

Why should I, why should I cry


And when I die and hopefully go on

I might not remember a damn thing

And when it’s your time to leave this earth

Maybe we can meet again


Why should I, why should I cry

Why should I, why should I cry

Why should I, why should I cry

Why should I, why should I cry

Last Day on Earth 


I heard the artists’ graves

Have been bulldozed and paved

Their voices hollowed

Their stories swallowed

Could this be our last day on Earth?


The so-called leaders rage

They’re jeering at the sage

Who sits in prison

For what he’s written

Could this be our last day on Earth?


This verse might blow your mind

If a kind soul spoke tonight

An angry legion

Would beat and nail him

Could this be our last day on Earth?


Watch the child

He wants to know the truth

He’s asking questions

And digging at the root


Watch the child

He wants to know the truth

He’s asking questions

And digging at the root


Trouble


Trouble

Now that you’re here to stay

Won’t you slow down today

Trouble, listen


Trouble

Now that you’re here to stay

Won’t you back off today

Trouble, listen


Now that you’re here to stay (listen)

Now that you’re here to stay (listen)

Now that you’re here to stay (listen)

Listen to me


I can see (I can see) the sunrise

Yeah, I can see the sunrise

Now I can see (I can see) the sunrise

In front of me


Trouble

I think you’ve drawn a plan

The storm clouds are in your hands

Trouble, listen


Now that you’re here to stay (listen)

Now that you’re here to stay (listen)

Now that you’re here to stay (listen)

Listen to me


Goodbye Forever


I remember soft warm nights

Lying next to you

But now you’re with someone new

I don’t know what to do

I guess I’ll write this tune


Goodbye forever, goodbye forever

Goodbye forever, ever, ever, ever


I can’t console myself

I am such a mess

I saw your picture on my phone

And the words you wrote

I guess I’ll sing this note


Goodbye forever, goodbye forever

Goodbye forever, ever, ever, ever


Leaning on my windowpane

Are you coming home?

But I know you’re gone for good

All I have’s this tune

At least something bloomed


Goodbye forever, goodbye forever

Goodbye forever, ever, ever, ever

Goodbye forever, goodbye forever

Goodbye forever, ever, ever, ever

Goodbye, goodbye


The Only One


There was a time

I was afraid            

My end already made

My clouds are gone

My dreams have finally touched the sun

You have eased all my fear


You are the only one

You are the only one


We both have known

For quite some time

That our two hearts entwine

So, take my hand

With love we’ll make a brand- new stand

Lay all your trust in me (oh!)


You are the only one

You are the only one

You are the only one-un-un

You are the only one


No tears remain


Can Love Find Its Way Home

Well, you used to pour your kindness out like summer rain

Now it runs dry

There’s no need to hide your fortune for another day

Come share your pie      


Can love find its way home?

Can love find its way home?


Yeah, I’ve seen the morning frost arrive before its time

It chills the sky

And once your song could light the darkest winter day

It rose so high


Can love find its way home?

Can love find its way home?


Yeah, there’s way too many voices shouting every day

They amplify

Yet you are my favorite guru go and lead the way

And talk for miles


Fill your heart, with loves fire

Fill your heart, with loves fire

Take it higher, with loves fire

Take it higher, with loves fire

With loves fire

With loves fire

With loves fire

With loves fire

With loves fire


Come on Over, Daisy Mae

Before the curtain falls

Before the bombs rain down

Before the saints all disappear

Let’s have some loving here


Before the half-wit rules

To please the mob and fools

Before our thoughts are met with jeers

Let’s have some loving here

Come on over, Daisy Mae


We’ll share warm kisses and laughter

For one night we’ll get what we’re after

It will be as sweet as molasses


Before the hunter comes

To get his killing done

Before the weak ones run in fear

Let’s have some loving here

Come on over, Daisy Mae


We’ll share warm kisses and laughter

For one night we’ll get what we’re after

It will be as sweet as molasses


Before the slow decline

Begins to eat our minds

Before we start to drown in tears

Let’s have some loving here

Come on over, Daisy Mae


We’ll share warm kisses and laughter

For one night we’ll get what we’re after

It will be as sweet as molasses


Before they make us part

Before it breaks my heart

But this song is not about that death

This song’s about life

Come on over, Daisy Mae


The More You Cry


The more you cry

Hey I want to tell ya’

The more you die

The more you cry

Hey I want to tell ya’

The more you die


Take my hand

Dry your eyes


The more you cry

Hey I want to tell ya’

The more you die

The more you cry

Hey I want to tell ya’

The more you die


Look around

Wear a smile

It’s best to laugh when faced with sorrow


The more you cry

Hey I want to tell ya’

The more you die

The more you cry

Hey I want to tell ya’

The more you die


Let’s hang out

We’ll be fine

Let’s live like there’s no tomorrow


The sun’s come out and the rain is gone

And now you are free to sing along

These are the best days of our lives


Take my hand

Dry your eyes

It’s best to laugh when faced with sorrow


The more you cry

Hey I want to tell ya’

The more you die

The more you cry

Hey I want to tell ya’

The more you die

The more you cry

Hey I want to tell ya’

The more you die

The more you cry

Hey I want to tell ya’

The more you die


These Days

I never thought that heartbreak heals with time

Now I’m moving on

Now I’m moving on


You once made me live by your design

Now I’m moving on

Now I’m moving on


These days are changing

They’re teaching me to breathe

I can’t help but let go


I used to spend my days feeling hurt

Now I’m moving on

Now I’m moving on


I even began to question my own worth

Now I’m moving on

Now I’m moving on


These days are changing

They’re teaching me to breathe

I can’t help but let go


Yeah, these days are changing

They’re teaching me to breathe

I can’t help but let go


I used to walk the streets lined with regret

Now I’m moving on

Now I’m moving on


And I used to fear that I was why you left

Now I’m moving on

Now I’m moving on


These days are changing

They’re teaching me to breathe

I can’t help but let go

‘Cus these days are changing

They’re teaching me to breathe

I can’t help but let go


These days


We’ve Got Each Other


Out by the desert home

They wait for love


I’ve got

You’ve got

All that we need

We’ve got each other


Still, I wait for us

Still, I call on us


Please give them one more chance

They’re just like us


I’ve got

You’ve got

All that we need

We’ve got each other


Still, I wait for us

Still, I call on us


What good are all these things

Without our heart


I’ve got

You’ve got

All that we need

We’ve got each other


Still, I wait for us

Still, I call on us


Come on

And stand with me

Come stand with us

I know you can


Come on

I know we’ll rise


Come on

And stand with me

Come stand with us

I know you can


Come on

I know we’ll rise


Still, I wait for us

Still, I call on us


Political Robots


The two sides have existed before

One uses a fist the other opens the door

I just choose a side that was floating in space

Filling in a void for the endless race


The two sides brewed and gathered in force

They conjured up lies designed to settle the score

But they just choose a side that was drifting in space

Political robots march now in place


The two sides stopped to look at the score

They both roared like lions when the truth hit the floor

They didn’t want to lose all the power they stole

Political robots rob the people once more


You can believe what you want to believe

You can see what you’re dragged out to see

Is there an answer on the other side of the door?

I never seen what they wanted believed

I only trust thoughts deep inside me

Political robots take your place on the floor


My heart bleeds for those who are dragged out to see

My heart bleeds for those who are …

My heart bleeds for those who are dragged out to see

My heart bleeds for those who are … dragged out to see
