Lyin', cheatin', hurtin, that's all you seem to do.
Messin' around with every guy in town,
Puttin' me down for thinkin' of someone new.
Always the same, playin' your game,
Drive me insane, troubles gonna come to you,
One of these days and it won't be long,
You'll look for me, and, baby, I'll be gone.
*Your Time Is Gonna Come (4 times)
Made up my mind to break you this time,
Won't be so fine, it's my turn to cry.
Do want you want, I won't take the brunt.
It's fadin' away, can't feel you anymore.
Don't care what you say 'cause I'm gone away to stay,
Gonna make you pay for this great big hole in my heart.
People talkin' all around,
Watch out woman, no longer is
You need coolin', baby, I'm not foolin',
I'm gonna say it, yeh! Go back to schoolin',
Way down inside honey, you need it,
I'm gonna give you my love,
I'm gonna give you my love.
*Wanna Whole Lotta Love? (4 times)
You've been learnin', baby, I mean learnin',
All them good times, baby, baby, I've been yearnin',
Way, way down inside honey, you need it,
I'm gonna give you my love,
I'm gonna give you my love.
* Chorus
You've been coolin', baby, I've been droolin',
All the good times I've been misusin',
Way, way down inside, I'm gonna give you my love,
I'm gonna give you every inch of my love,
Gonna give you my love.
If it keeps on rainin', levee's goin' to break,
If it keeps on rainin', levee's goin' to break,
When The Levee Breaks I'll have no place to stay.
Mean old levee taught me to weep and moan,
Lord, mean old levee taught me to weep and moan,
Got what it takes to make a mountain man leave his home,
Oh, well, oh, well, oh, well.
Don't it make you feel bad
When you're tryin' to find your way home,
You don't know which way to go?
If you're goin' down South
They go no work to do,
If you don't know about Chicago.
Cryin' won't help you, prayin' won't do you no good,
Now, cryin' won't help you, prayin' won't do you no good,
When the levee breaks, mama, you got to move.
All last night sat on the levee and moaned,
All last night sat on the levee and moaned,
Thinkin' 'bout me baby and my happy home.
And if I say to you tomorrow,
Take my hand, child, come with me.
It's to a castle I will take you,
Well, what's to be, they say will be.
*Catch the wind, see us spin,
Sail away, leave today,
Way up high in the sky.
Then the wind won't blow,
You really shouldn't go,
It only goes to show
That you will be mine
By takin' our time. Ooh!
And if you say to me tomorrow,
Oh what fun it all would be,
Then what's to stop us, pretty baby,
But What Is And What Should Never Be.
Grease me down, good electric
I could lay it on the road, mama, it ain't no trick
*Talkin' 'bout love, talkin' 'bout love
Talkin' 'bout
Oh, trouble free transmission puncture to explode
Mama let me pump your gas
Mama let me do it all
(* Repeat)
Take that heavy metal underneath your hood
Baby, I could rev all night, leave a big pile of tubes
(* Repeat)
Automobile club covered, really built in style
Special tradition, mama, come feast your eyes
(* Repeat)
Factory air conditioned, took me by surprise
Guaranteed to run for hours, mama, brand new tires
(* Repeat)
Groovin' on the freeway, drivin' on the road
>From now on my gasoline is gonna be free of lead
(* Repeat)
I can't stop talkin' about
I can't stop talkin' about, oh yes, drive on
Come to me for service every hundred miles
baby, let me change your valves, fix your overdrive
(* Repeat)
Fully automatic, comes in any size
Makes me wonder what I did before I got synchronized
(* Repeat)
Oh, baby, like suspension I just couldn't hold
I'm so glad I took a look inside you showroom door
(* Repeat)
I can't stop talkin' about love
I can't stop talkin' about love
Oh, let me let it down (Repeat)
I can't stop talkin' about
I can't stop talkin' about love, my baby . . .
oooh...oh it feels so strange to be at the door
Oooh...tryin hard to change but can't let go
Oooh...cryin' tears of pain and more and more
Oooh...everyday is the same as the one before
I'm walkin the floor over you
I'm walkin the floor
Every heart that breaks is a heart that's gold
To the hand that takes your dream that's sold
Oooh...Is it long to wait is it much too late?
Oooh...Sometimes it's hard when you wanted the pain
You know it's hard
I said it's hard
You know it's true
I said it's hard
You know it's hard
You know it's true
Everyday the ??? smile is ours?
When you hear the call can you count the cards?
And to say the longer you only have
Can you step inside does it matter now
Every love that's ?????????
Can't hide in the light for a heart ???
Every day of ????
She was smilin' tears at her waters fall
You know it's true
You know it's true now
Oooh yeah
I'm walkin the floor over you
I'm walkin' the floor
Every tear that fallen when the smile is warm
When you hear the call can you count the card?
Can you stand the love you want around?
Can you step inside
See you movin' in the night again
Tell me I see too much, baby
Same old thing, I'm on a plane
And the wheel rolls on
Silent moves through the flames
>From the deep behind the soul
Guess my nightmares have now begun
Left me barely holdin' on
To strangers I seem a gentleman
When we know the time has come
Lose my sense and lose command
You know even rivers run
Seems like every time I fall
I think this is the one
Oh, in the darkness can you hear me call
This is the springtime of my loving-
the second season I am to know
You are the sunlight in my growing-
so little warmth I felt before.
It isn't hard to feel me glowing-
I watched the fire that grew so low.
It is the summer of my smiles-
flee from me Keepers of the Gloom.
Speak to me only with your eyes
it is to you I give this tune.
It isn't hard to recognise-
these things are clear to all from
time to time.
Talk Talk-
I felt the coldness of my winter
I never thought it would ever go
I cursed the gloom that set upon us
but I know that I love you so
but I know that I love you so.
These are the seasons of emotion
And like the winds they rise and fall
I've been to London, seen seven wonders
I know to trip is just to fall
I used to walk it, sometimes I'd roll it
I always knew what it was for
There can't be no denyin'
That the wind is shakin' down
And the flatworm cryin'
And the new plague on the land
*If we could just join hands
If we could just join hands
If we could just join (hands)
Converse the planet when heaven send me
I saw the kings who rule them all
Still by the firelight and purple moonlight
I hear the rustin' rivers call
And the wind is cryin'
I'm a little bit more grown cold
My lover, she is lyin'
On the dark side of the globe
(* Repeat)
You got me rockin' when I ought to be alone
Darlin', come on, tell me, darlin', which way to go
You keep me rockin', baby, then you keep me spinnin'
Won't you tell me darlin', which way to go
That's right
Oh how I wonder, oh how I worry
And I would dearly like to know
I always wonder if earthly plunder
Will leave us anything to show
I wanna tell you bout my good thing I aint
disclosing no names- but she is a good friend
I aint gonna tell you where she comes from if I tell
you you wont come again I aint gonna tell you that
I should do but I know now let me tell you bout
my girl open a newspaper and what do I see
see my girl looking at me and when she walks,
she walks and when she talks, she talks and
when she looks at me in the eye shes my baby
I wanna make her mine tell me baby what you
want me to do you want me to love you, love
some other man too aint gonna call me mr. pitiful
no I dont need no respect from nobody no
I aint gonna tell you nothing I cant tell
you no more shes my baby let me tell you I love
her so and shes the woman I really wanna love
and let me tell you more shes my baby she lives
next door shes the one a woman the one a woman
that I know I aint gonna tell you one thing that
you really ought to know shes my baby and I love
her so shes the one that really makes me whirl
and twirl and shes got the kind of love that makes
me fill the whole world shes the kind of girl
makes me jump and shout shes the kind of girl
lets me know what its all about take it take it
Queen of Light took her bow
And then she turned to go,
The Prince of Peace embraced the gloom
And walked the night alone.
Oh, dance in the dark of night,
Sing to the morn - ing light.
The dark Lord rides in force tonight
And time will tell us all.
Oh, throw down your plow and hoe,
Rest not to lock your homes.
Side by side we wait the might
Of the darkest of them all.
I hear the horses' thunder
Down in the valley blow,
I'm waiting for the angels of Avalon,
Waiting for the eastern glow.
The apples of the valley hold,
The seas of happiness,
The ground is rich from tender care,
Repay, do not forget, no, no.
Oh,-------danceinthedarkofnight,
sing to the morning light.
The apples turn to brown and black,
The tyrant's face is red.
Oh the war is common cry,
Pick up you swords and fly.
The sky is filled with good and bad
That mortals never know.
Oh, well, the night is long
The beads of time pass slow,
Tired eyes on the sunrise,
Waiting for the eastern glow.
The pain of war cannot exceed
The woe of aftermath,
The drums will shake the castle wall,
The ring wraiths ride in black,
Ride on.
Sing as you raise your bow,
Shoot straighter than before.
No comfort has the fire at night
That lights the face so cold.
There's a lady who's sure
All that glitters is gold
And she's buying a stairway to heaven.
When she gets there she knows
If the stores are all closed
With a word she can get what she came for.
Ooh, ooh, and she's buying a stairway to heaven.
There's a sign on the wall
But she wants to be sure
'Cause you know sometimes words have two meanings.
In a tree by the brook
There's a songbird who sings,
Sometimes all of our thoughts are misgiven.
Ooh, it makes me wonder,
Ooh, it makes me wonder.
There's a feeling I get
When I look to the west,
And my spirit is crying for leaving.
In my thoughts I have seen
Rings of smoke through the trees,
And the voices of those who standing looking.
Ooh, it makes me wonder,
Ooh, it really makes me wonder.
And it's whispered that soon
If we all call the tune
Then the piper will lead us to reason.
And a new day will dawn
For those who stand long
And the forests will echo with laughter.
If there's a bustle in your hedgerow
Don't be alarmed now,
It's just a spring clean for the May queen.
Yes, there are two paths you can go by
But in the long run
There's still time to change the road you're on.
And it makes me wonder.
Your head is humming and it won't go
In case you don't know,
The piper's calling you to join him,
Dear lady, can you hear the wind blow,
Then as it was, then again it will be
Though the course may change sometimes
Rivers always reach the sea
Like stars of fortune
Each has separate rays
On the wings of maybe
Down in birds of prey
Kind of makes me feel sometimes
I didn't have to grow
But as the eagle leaves the nest
He got so far to go
Changes fill my time
Baby, that's all right with me
In the midst I think of you
And how it used to be
Did you ever really need somebody
And really need 'em bad
Did you ever really want somebody
The best love you ever had
Do you ever remember me, baby
Did it feel so good
'Cause it was just the first time
And you knew you would
Turn the eyes and I sparkle
Senses growing keen
Tasting love along the way
See your feathers preen
One town love
You better take care how you use it
Try to make it last all night
And if you take your pick
Be careful how you choose it
Sometimes its hard to feel it bite
Feel it bite
A man I know, went down to Louisiana
Had himself a bad, bad fight
And when the sun peeks through
John Cameron he sees (sandy???)
He kissed the whiskers and left and right
Whiskers!
Now, now, now
A fight subsides
Out at a hotel in the quarter
A friendship took a bash tonight
Now love gets hot
Look far for a sea with water
Grew whiskers sittin' there through the night
Whiskers!
Down on Bourbon street
You know it's right
You can see my friend
When they run around us in the night
Most everywhere
Until the closet's bare
Run for the razor, fun
Doin' up my hair
Working seven to eleven ev'ry night,
It really makes my life a drag,
I don't think that's right.
I've really, really been the best of fools,
I did what I could,
'Cause I love you, baby,
How I love you, darling,
How I love you, baby,
How I love you, girl, little girl.
But baby, Since I've Been Loving You, yeah,
I'm about to lose my worried mind, oh, yeah.
Ev'rybody trying to tell me
That you didn't mean me no good.
I've been trying, Lord, let me tell you,
Let me tell you I really did the best I could.
I've been working seven to eleven ev'ry night,
It kinda makes my life a drag.
Lord, you know it ain't right.
Since I've Been Loving You,
I'm about to lose my worried mind.
Said I've been crying,
My tears they fell like rain,
Don't you hear,
Don't you hear them falling,
Don't you hear,
Don't you hear them falling.
Do you remember, mama, when I knocked upon your door?
I said you had the nerve to tell me
You didn't want me no more,
I open my front door hearing my back door slam,
It's been a long time since I Rock and Rolled,
It's been a long time since I did the Stroll.
Ooh, let me get it back, let me get it back,
Let me get it back, baby, where I come from.
It's been a long time, been a long time,
Been a long lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely time.
Yes it has.
It's been a long time since the book of love,
I can't count the tears of a life with no love.
Carry me back, carry me back,
Carry me back, baby, where I come from.
It's been a long time, been a long time,
Been a long lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely time.
Seems so long since we walked in the moonlight,
Making vows that just can't work right.
Here's a tale of Tom
Who worked the rivers run
His wife would cook his meat
As he would care at the wheel
Poor Tom, Seventh Son, Always knew what's goin on
Ain't a thing that you can hide from Tom
There ain't nothing that you can hide from Tom
Worked for thirty years
Sharin' hopes and fears
Dreamin' of the day
He could turn and say:
Poor Tom, work's gone, lazin' out in the noonday sun
Ain't a thing that you can hide from Tom
Ain't nothing that you can hide from Tom
His wife was Ellie May
One of many games she played
When Tom was out of town
She couldn't keep her dresses down
Poor Tom, Seventh Son, always knew what's goin on
Ain't a thing that you can hide from Tom
Ain't nothing that you can hide from Tom
And so it was one day
People got to Ellie May
^^^^^^^^^(I'mopentosuggestions)
Tom took a gun in his hand
And stopped all the runnin' around
Poor Tom, Seventh Son, gotta die for what you've done
All those years of work are thrown away
To ease your mind is that all you can say?
But what about that grandson on your knee?
And railroad's son is the best he could be
Ain't nothing that you can hide from Tom
Ain't a thing that you can hide from Tom
Oh, nobody's fault but mine
Nobody's fault but mine, yeah
Trying to save my soul to light
Oh, it's nobody's fault but mine
Devil he told me to roll
The devil he told me to roll
How to roll the line tonight
Nobody's fault but mine
Ah, ah, ah ...
Somebody show me the (gun? door? gong?)
Somebody show me the ding dong ding dong
I will get down rolling tonight ?????????
Oh, it's nobody's fault but mine
As I walk down the highway all I do is sing this song,
And a train that passes my way helps the rythm move along.
There is no doubt about the words are clear,
The voice is strong, is oh so strong.
I'm just a simple guy and I live from day to day.
A ray of sunshine melts the clouds and blows my blues away,
There's nothing more that I can say but on a day like today
I pass the time away and walk a quiet mile with you.
(Chorus:)
All I need from you is all your love,
All you got to give to me is all your love,
All I need from you is all your love,
All you got to give to me is all your love.
Oooh yeah, ooh yeah, ooh yeah, oh yeah.
I'm so glad I'm living and gonna tell the world I am,
I got me a fine woman and she says that I'm her man,
One thing that I know for sure gonna give her all the loving
Like nobody, nobody, nobody, nobody can.
Standing in the noonday sun trying to flag a ride,
People come and people go come, see my rider right by my side,
I received a message from my love across the water
You sat laughin' as you wrote the ends in sight
So I said goodbye to all my friends
And packed my hopes inside a matchbox
'Cause I know it's time to fly
*Oh yeah, come on, meet me in the morning (won't you)
Meet me in the middle of the night (night night)
Oh yeah, the mornin' light is comin'
Don't it make you wanna (try to) feel all right
I just jumped a train that never stops
So now so how'll they know I never finished
Payin' for my ride
Just now someone pushed the dime into my hand
Tell me I'm the type of man
To fight the fight that I'll require
(* Repeat)
Oh, mama, well I think it's time I'm leavin'
Nothin' here to make me stay
Oh, mama, well it must be time I'm goin'
They're knockin' down them doors
They're tryin' to take me away
Please Mr. Brakeman, won't you ring your bell
And ring it loud and clear
Please Mr. Fireman, won't you ring your bell
And tell the people they got to fly away from here
I once saw a picture of a lady with a baby
Southern lady, had a very, very special smile
We ware in the middle of a change in destination
When the train starts, all together we will smile
Close the doors, put out the light
You know they won't be home tonight
The snow falls hard and don't you know
The winds of Thor are blowing cold
They're wearing steel that's bright and true
They carry news that must get through
They choose the path where no-one goes
They hold no quarter.
They ask no quarter.
Walking side by side with death
The devil mocks their every step
The snow drives back the foot that's slow
The dogs of doom are howling more
Walkin' in the park just the other day, Baby,
What do you, what do you think I saw?
Crowds of people sittin' on the grass with flowers in their hair said,
"Hey, Boy, do you wanna score?"
And you know how it is;
I really don't know what time it was, woh, oh,
So I asked them if I could stay awhile.
I didn't notice but it had got very dark and I was really,
Really out of my mind.
Just then a policeman stepped up to me and asked us said,
"Please, hey, would we care to all get in line,
Get in line."
Well you know,
They asked us to stay for tea and have some fun,
Oh, oh, he said that his friends would all drop by, ooh.
Why don't you take a good look at yourself and describe what you see,
And Baby, Baby, Baby, do you like it?
There you sit, sitting spare like a book on a shelf rustin'
Ah, not trying to fight it.
You really don't care if they're coming, oh, oh,
I know that it's all a state of mind, ooh.
If you go down in the streets today, Baby, you better,
You better open your eyes.
Oh, let the sun beat down upon my face
And stars fill my dream
I'm a traveller of both time and space
To be where I have been
To sit with elders of the gentle race
This world has seldom seen
They talk of days for which they sit and wait
All will be revealed
Talk in song from tongues of lilting grace
Sounds caress my ear
And not a word I heard could I relate
The story was quite clear
Ooh, baby, I been blind
Oh, yeah, mama, there ain't no denyin'
Oh, ooh yes, I been blind
Mama, mama, ain't no denyin', no denyin'
All I see turns to brown
As the sun burns the ground
And my eyes fill with sand
As I scan this razor line
Can I find, can I find where I've been
Oh, pilot of the storm who leaves no trace
Like sorts inside a dream
Leave the path the led me to that place
Yellow desert stream
Like Shangri-la beneath the summer moon
I will return again
As the dust that floats finds you
Will move and search Kashmir
Oh, father of the four winds fill my sails
Cross the sea of years
And if you feel that you can't go on
And your will's sinking low
Just believe and you can't go wrong
In the light you will find the road
You'll find the road
Hey, ooh, did you ever believe
That I could leave you standin' out in the cold
Hey, baby, I know how it feels
'Cause I have slipped through
To the very depths of my soul
Oh, baby, I just want to show you what I'd give you
In case you ever been on the road
Now, listen, oh, as I was and would do for you, too
Honey, as you would do for me
I would share your load, let me share load
Ooh, let me share you load
And if you feel that you can't go on
In th light you will find the road
Hey, oh the winds of change my blow around you
But that will always be so
In my time of dyin', want nobody to moan
All I want them to do is take my body home
*Well, well, well, so I can die easy
Well, well, well, so I can die easy
Jesus, got to make you, shiver
Jesus, gonna make you
Jesus, gonna make you my dyin' bed
Meet me, Jesus, meet me
Ooh, meet me in the middle of the air
If my wings should fail me. lord
Oh, please meet me with another pair
(* Repeat)
Jesus, gonna make you, somebody, somebody
Oh, Jesus, gonna make you
Jesus gonna make you my dyin' bed
Oh, Saint Peter, I can make amends
Won't you let me in
I never did no wrong, I never did no wrong
Oh, oh Gabriel, let me blow your horn
Let me blow your horn
I never did no wrong, did no wrong
I only can be young once
I never thought I'd do anybody no wrong
No not once
Oh, I did somebody so good
Somebody some good, yeah
Oh, did somebody some good, yeah
I must have did somebody some good, yeah
Oh, I believe I did, I seen the smilin' faces
I know I must have left some traces
And I seen them in the streets
And I seen them in the theater
And I even felt my feet
And I never tried to be real
Oh, lord, deliver me all the wrongs I've done
Oh, you can deliver me, lord
I only wanted to have some fun
Oh, keep the angels marchin', marchin'
Keep them marchin', keep them marchin', marchin'
Oh, my Jesus (Repeat)
That's got to be my Jesus
It's got to be, it's got to be my Jesus
Ah, ah,
We come from the land of the ice and snow,
From the midnight sun where the hot springs blow.
The hammer of the gods
Will drive their ships to new lands,
To fight the horde, singing and crying:
Valhalla, I am coming!
On we sweep with threshing oar,
Our only goal will be the western shore.
Ah, ah,
We come from the land of the ice and snow,
From the midnight sun where the hot springs blow.
How soft your fields so green,
Can whisper tales of gore,
Of how we calmed the tides of war.
We are your overlords.
On we sweep with threshing oar,
Can't Quit You, Baby,
So I'm gonna put you down for awhile.
I can't quit you, baby,
I guess I gotta put you down for awhile.
Said you messed up my happy home,
Made me mistreat my only child.
Yessir, you did!
Said you know I love you, baby,
My love for you I could never hide.
Oh, you know I love you, baby,
My love for you I could never hide.
Oh, when I feel you near me little girl
I know you are my one desire.
When you hear me moaning and groaning, baby,
You know it hurts me deep down inside.
How Many More Times,
Treat me the way you wanna do?
How Many More Times,
Treat me the way you wanna do?
When I give you all my love,
Please, please be true.
I'll give you all I've got to give,
Rings, pearls, and all.
I'll give you all I've got to give,
Rings, pearls, and all.
I've got to get you together baby,
I'm sure, sure you're gonna crawl.
I was a young man, I couldn't resist
Started thinkin' it all over, just what I had missed.
Got me a girl and I kissed her and then and then
Whoops, oh Lordy, well I did it again.
Now I got ten children of my own
I got another child on the way that makes eleven.
But you know, I'm in constant heaven.
I know it's all right in my mind
I got a little schoolgirl and she's all mine
I can't get through to her 'cause it doesn't permit
But I'm gonna give her everything I've got to give.
Oh, Rosie, oh, girl
Oh, Rosie, oh, girl
Steal away now, steal away
Steal away baby, steal away
Little Robert Anthony wants to come and play.
Why don't you come to me baby?
Steal away, all right, all right...
They call me the hunter, that's my name
They call me the hunter, that's how I got my fame
Ain't no need to hide,
I was burned in the heat of the moment,
Oh! it could've been the heat of the day
When I learned how my time had been wasted,
Dear fellows I turned away
Now I've got friends who will give me their shoulder,
When I should happen to fall
Time and his bride growing older
I've got friends who will give me fuck all ???????????
Corner of Bleeker and nowhere
In the land of not quite day
A shiver runs down my backbone
Face in the mirror turns grey
So, I looked 'round for a hitch from a reindeer
Said you oughtta find him out in the day
I turned 'round to look for the snowman
To my surprise he'd melted away, yeah
The moon and the stars out of order
As the tide tends to ebb and sway
The sun in my soul's sinking lower
While the hope in my hands turns to clay
I don't ask that my feet fall on clover
I don't roam at opportunity's door
Why don't you ask my advice, take it slower
Then your story'd be your finest reward ??????????
Lost on the path to attainment
Search in the eyes of the wise
When I bled from the heart of the matter (matchhead?)
I started bleeding without a disguise
Now everything's finally happened
Now and then you've got to take time to pause
When you're down on the ground, don't be messin' around
Or you

Well I just went into town today *
To find my girl who's gone away
She took the Greyhound from the general store
I search myself I search the town
When I finaly did sat down
I find myself no wiser than before
She said we couldn't do no wrong
No other love could be so strong
She locked up my heart in her bottom drawer
Now she took my heart she took my keys
>From in my old blue dungarees
And I'll never go to Texas anymore
Now my baby's gone I don't know what to do
She took my love and walked right out the door
And if I ever find that girl I know one thing for sure
I'm gonna give her something like she never had before
I took her love at seventen
A little late these days it seems
And they said heaven knows who she's waiting for *
I took her word I took it all
Beneath the sign that said U-haul
Sweet little angel's hanging around for more
Now my baby's gone I don't know what to do
She took my love and walked right out the door
And if I ever find that girl I know one thing for sure
I'm gonna give her something like she never had before
In the days of my youth
I was told what it was to be a man,
Now I've reached the age
I've tried to do all those things the best I can.
No matter how I try,
I find my way to do the same old jam.
*Good Times, Bad Times,
You know I had my share;
When my woman left home
With a brown eyed man,
Well, I still don't seem to care.
Sixteen: I fell in love
With a girl as sweet as could be,
Only took a couple of days
Till she was rid of me.
She swore that she would be all mine
And love me till the end,
When I whispered in her ear
I lost another friend.
Spent my days with a woman unkind,
Smoked my stuff and drank all my wine.
Made up my mind to make a new start,
Going To California with an aching in my heart.
Someone told me there's a girl out there
With love in her eyes and flowers in her hair.
Took my chances on a big jet plane,
Never let them tell you that they're all the same.
The sea was red and the sky was grey,
Wondered how tomorrow could ever follow today.
The mountains and the canyons started to tremble and shake
As the children of the sun began to awake.
Seems that the wrath of the Gods
Got a punch on the nose and it started to flow;
I think I might be sinking.
Throw me a line if I reach it in time
I'll meet you up there where the path
Runs straight and high.
To find a queen without a king;
They say she plays guitar and cries and sings.
La la la la
Hangman, hangman, hold it a little while,
Think I see my friends coming,
Riding a many mile.
Friends, did you get a little silver?
Did you get a little gold?
What did you bring me, my dear friends,
To keep me from the Gallows Pole?
What did you bring me to keep me from the Gallows Pole?
I couldn't get no silver, I couldn't get no gold,
You know that we're too damn poor
To keep you from the Gallows Pole.
Hangman, hangman, hold it a little while,
I think I see my brother coming,
Riding a many mile.
Brother, did you get me some silver?
Did you get a little gold?
What did you bring me, my brother,
To keep me from the Gallows Pole?
Brother, I brought you some silver,
I brought a little gold,
I brought a little of ev'ry thing
To keep you from the Gallows Pole.
Yes, I brought you to keep you from the Gallows Pole.
Hangman, hangman, turn your head awhile,
I think I see my sister coming,
Riding a many mile, mile, mile, mile, mile.
Sister, I implore you, take him by the hand,
Take him to some shady bower,
Save me from the wrath of this man,
Please take him,
Save me from the wrath of this man, man.
Hangman, hangman, upon your face a smile,
Pray tell me that I'm free to ride,
Oh, Baby, it's cryin' time,
Oh, Baby, I got to fly.
Got to try to find a way,
Got to try to get away,
'Cause you know I gotta get away from you, Babe.
Oh, Baby, the river's red,
Oh, Baby, in my head.
There's a funny feelin' goin' on,
I don't think I can hold out long.
(Chorus:)
And when the owls cry in the night,
Oh, Baby, Baby, when the pines begin to cry,
Baby, Baby, Baby, how do you feel?
If the river runs dry, Baby,
How do you feel?
Craze, Baby, the rainbow's end,
Mmm, Baby, it's just a den
For those who hide,
You said I was the only, oh, oh
With my lemon in your hand
Exhibition is your habit
Emotions second hand, oh, oh
Had to pull away to save me
Maybe next time around
And she said, don't you wannit?
Don't you want coca-coca-cocaine?
Hadn't planned to, could not stand to
Try it, friend, yeah, na, na, yeah
Whoo ooh ooh ooh
Heard a cry for mercy
In the city of the damned
Oh oh babe, damned
Impossible to go lower
The next stop's on the ground
Oh, low on the ground
You want to know is it quite over
To fame and tears and losing hair
And I said didn't mean to... did not mean to f-fail
You didn't plan it, you overran it...yeeeeeeah!
You wanna do it, you wanna
You wanna do it when you wanna
You wanna do it, do it when you wanna
When you blow it, babe
You got to blow it right
Oh baby, if you fake it, mama
Baby, fake with all your might
When you fake it, mama
Please fake it right
For yourself, babe, will you fake it?
You're fakin' it for your life
For your life
For your life
For your life
Do it, do it, do it, do it, do it
Do it when you wanna
Do it, do it, do it
Do it when you wanna
Oh, I can have you, baby
But I don't know what to do, yeah
Sometime, baby, nothin' I could do
Wanna find myself a crystal
Payin' through the nose
Down by the seaside
See the boats go sailin'
Can the people hear, oh
What the little fish are sayin'
*The people turned away
The people turned away
Down in the city streets
See all the folk go racin', racin'
No time left, no no
To pass the time of day
(* Repeat)
So far away, so far away
See how they run, see how they run
See how they run, see how they run
Run, run, run
Do you still do the twist
Do you find you remember things that well
I want to tell you, some folks twistin' every day
Though sometimes it's awful hard to tell
Out in the country
Hear the people singin'
Singin' 'bout their progress
Knowin' where they're goin', yeah, yeah
(* Repeat)
Sing loud for the sunshine
Pray hard for the rain
And show your love for lady nature
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
You don't have to go oh oh oh oh oh
You don't have to go oh oh oh oh oh
Baby please don't go.
Ay ay ay ay ay ay
All those tears I cry ay ay ay ay ay
All those tears I cry ay ay ay ay ay
Baby please don't go.
(Chorus)
When I read the letter you wrote
it made me mad mad mad
When I read the news that it brought me
It made me sad sad sad.
But I still love you so
I can't let you go
I love you- ooh baby I love you.
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
Every breath I take oh oh oh oh oh
Every move I make oh oh oh oh oh
Baby please don't go.
Ay ay ay ay ay ay
You hurt me to my soul ay ay ay ay ay
You hurt me to my soul ay ay ay ay ay
Darling please don't go.
(Chorus)
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
You don't have to go oh oh oh oh oh
Rock down, lady, by the sea
Rock down, mama, just dream of me
Mama, love me, fool around all night long
Well, I'm made of braken gravy
I should know right from wrong
See me comin' slowly on by your door
Ain't no stranger, I been this way before
See me comin', mama, slowly on by your door
I ain't no stranger, I been this way before
Put on your night shirt and your morning gown
You know by night I'm gonna shake 'em on down
Put on your night shirt, mama
And your morning gown
Well, you know by night
I'm surely gonna shake 'em on down
Shake it, shake it
Ooh, your custard pie, ain't seen the like
When you cut it, mama, save me a slice
Your custard pie, I declare, ain't seen the like
Hey, girl, stop what you're doin'!
Hey, girl, you'll drive me to ruin.
I don't know what it is about you,
But I like it alot.
Oh, let me hold you,
Let me feel your lovin' charms.
*Communication Breakdown,
It's always the same,
I'm having a nervous breakdown,
Drive me insane!
Hey, girl, I got something I think you ought to know.
Hey, babe, I wanna tell you that I love you so.
I wanna hold you in my arms, yeah!
Her face is cracked from smiling,
All the fears that she's been hiding,
And it seems pretty soon ev'rybody's gonna know.
And her voice is sore from shouting,
Cheering winners who are losing,
And she worries if their days are few
And soon they'll have to go.
(Chorus:)
My, my, my, I'm so happy,
I'm gonna join the band,
We are gonna dance and sing and celebration,
We are in the promised land.
She hears them talk of new ways
To protect the home she lives in,
Then she wonders what it's all about
When they break down the door.
Her name is Brown or White or Black,
You know her very well,
You hear her cries of mercy
As the winners toll the bell.
(Chorus)
There is a train that leaves the station
Heading for your destination,
But the price you pay has increased a dollar more.
Sistres of the way-side bide their time in quiet peace,
await their place within the ring of calm;
still stand to turn in seconds of release,
await the call they know may never come.
In times of lightness, no intruder dared upon
to jeodardize the course, upset the run;
and all was joy and hands were raised toward the sun
as love in the halls of plenty overrun.
Still in their bliss unchallenged mighty feast,
unending dances shadowed on the day.
Within their walls, their daunting formless keep,
preserved their joy and kept their doubts at bay.
Faceless legions stood in readiness to weep,
just turn a cion, bring order to the fray;
and ev'rything is soon no sooner thought than deed,
but no one seemed to question anyway.
How keen the hunter's eye prevails upon the land
to seek the unsuspecting and the weak;
and powerless the fabled sat, too smug to lift a hand
toward the foe that threatened from the deep.
Who cares to dry the cheeks of those who saddened stand
adrift upon a sea of futile speech?
Where was your word, where did you go?
Where was your helping, where was your bow? Bow.
Dull is the armour, cold is the day.
Hard was the journey, dark was the way. Way.
I heard the word; I couldn't stay. Oh.
I couldn't stand it another day, another day-ay,
another day, another day.
Touched by the timely coming, roused from the keeper's sleep,
release the grip, throw down the key.
Held now within the knowing, rest now within the peace.
Take of the fruit, but guard the seed.
Well
Oh baby baby
Don't you want a man like me?
Oh baby baby
Im just as sweet as anybody could be
Oh baby baby
I want to look to your eyes, of blue
Oh baby baby
It's more than anybody else could do
Well

Oh, oh, child, way you shake that thing
Gonna make you burn, gonna make you sting.
Hey, hey, baby, when you walk that way
Watch your honey drip, can't keap away.
I gotta roll, can't stand still,
Got a flame in my heart, can't get my fill,
Eyes that shine burning red,
Dreams of you all thru my head.
Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah.
Hey, baby, oh, baby, pretty baby,
La la la la la la la.
(Repeat)
Didn't take too long 'fore I found out
What people mean my down and out.
Spent my money, took my car,
Started tellin' her friends she wants to be a star.
I don't know but I been told
A big legged woman ain't got no soul.
(Shall we roll it, Jimmy? We're rolling on what, one?)(No, one again)(Got to get this airplane on)(Naw, leave it, yeah)
Hey, hey, mama, what's the matter here
Hey, hey, mama, what's the matter here
You didn't have to tell me that you love me so
Didn't have to love me, mama, let me go
Hey, hey, mama, what's the matter here
You didn't have to make me a total disgrace
Didn't have to leave me with that beer in my face
Hey, hey, mama, what's the matter here
Oh, that's all right, it awful doggone clear
Hey, hey, baby, why you treat me mean
Oh oh, baby, why you treat me mean
You didn't have to crucify me like you did
You didn't have to tell me I was just your kid
Hey, hey, mama, why'd you treat me mean
You didn't have to say you'd always be by my side
Didn't have to tell me you'd be my blushing bride
Hey, hey, baby, why you treat me mean
But that's all right, I know your sister, too
You didn't have to tell me that you love me so
You didn't have to leave me, mama, let me go
Hey, hey, mama, what is wrong with you
You didn't have to leave me like a total disgrace
You didn't have to leave me with that beer on my face
Hey, hey, mama, what is wrong with you
Oh, but that's all right, I'd be the same way, too, oh yeah
Now, my baby, you didn't have to crucify me like you did
You didn't have to tell me I was just your kid
Hey, hey, mama, what's the matter here
abe, baby, baby, I'm Gonna Leave You.
I said baby, you know I'm gonna leave you.
I'll leave you when the summertime,
Leave you when the summertime comes arollin'
Leave you when the summer comes along.
Baby, baby, I don't wanna leave you,
I ain't jokin' woman, I got to ramble.
Oh, yeah, baby, baby, I won't be there,
Really got to ramble.
I can hear it callin' me the way it used to do,
I can hear it callin' me back home.
I know, I never leave you, baby.
But I got to go away from this place, I've got to quit you.
Ooh, baby,
Baby, ooh don't you hear it callin'?
Woman, woman, I know, I know it's good to have you back again
And I know that one day baby, it's really gonna grow, yes it is.
Should I fall out of love, my fire in the night,
to chase a feather in the wind;
within the glow that weaves a cloak of delight
there moves a thread that has no end.
For many hours and days that pass ever soon,
the tides have caused the flame to dim.
At last the arm is straight, the hand to the loom.
Is this to end or just begin?
Chorus:
All of my love, all of my love, oh,
all of my love to you, now.
All of my love, all of my love,
all of my love to you, now.
The cup is raised, the toast is maade yet again;
one voice is clear above the din.
Proud Arian one word, my will to sustain.
For me, the cloth once more to spin. Oh.
repeat chorus
Yours is the cloth, mine is the hand that sews time,
Shut up x3
Shut up (when i'm talking to you)
Shut up x4
I'm about to...
Wasnt that fun, lets try something else
Forty five caliber killa but outta the filla
Dela villa gonna show yall brothers how you not a gorilla
Smooth talking fully automatic weapon concilla
Taste thriller, break thriller, lets hit em' with the bounce filla
Filthy stinkin standin on solid ground
Still be sinkin submerging and the parks
Still be Linkin pluck beef when its starts, fuck what your thinking, its not a mirage
Im in a mother fuckin tractor from out of the garage
With an if through the duck, but its hard to dodge
In the back of that spine where my dogs' lie
Gonna flip it straight up rippin apart ya squad
X to the ecutioner style, cuts and blends
Like a syringe hangin you from each of ya limbs
See me comin through ya party hard
Without no bodyguard
Smoking something stompin on each of ya Tims
Im the B to the L the A the C king
And when it come to planning the thought to keep thinking man
I woke up in a dream today
To the cold of the static and put my cold feet on the floor
Forgot all about yesterday
Remembering I'm pretending to be where I'm not anymore
A little taste of hypocrisy
And I'm left in the wake of the mistake
Slow to react
Even though you're so close to me
You're still so distant
And I can't bring you back
Its true
The way I feel
Was promised by your face
The sound of your voice
Painted on my memories
Even if you're not with me
I'm with you
You
Now I see
Keeping everything inside
(With You)
You
Now I see
Even when I close my eyes
I hit you and you hit me back
We fall to the floor
The rest of the day stands still
Fine line between this and that
When things go wrong I pretend that the past isn't real
Now I'm trapped in this memory
And I'm left in the wake of the mistake
Slow to react
So, even though you're close to me
You're still so distant
And I can't bring you back
It's true
The way I feel
Was promised by your face
The sound of your voice
Painted on my memories
Even if you're not with me
I'm with you
You
Now I see
Keeping everything inside
(With You)
You
Now I see
Even when I close my eyes
(With You)
You
Now I see
Keeping everything inside
(With You)
You
Now I see
Even when I close my eyes
( x2 )
No
No matter how far we've come
I can't wait to see tomorrow
No matter how far we've come I
I can't wait to see tomorrow
With you
( x2 )
You
Now I see
Keeping everything inside
(With You)
You
Now

"There's a time when the operation of the machine
becomes so odious, makes you so sick at heart,
that you can't take part. You can't even passively
take part, and you've got to put your bodies upon the gears
and upon the wheels, upon the levers, upon all the apparatus,
and you've got to make it stop. And you've got to indicate to the people
who run it, to the people who own it, that unless you're free,
the machine will be prevented from working at all"
- Mario Savio*
To save face how low can you go?
Talk a lot of game but yet you don't know,
Static on the way make us all say whoa,
The people up top push the people down low,
Get down
And obey every word,
Steady getting mine if you haven't yet heard,
Wanna take what I got,
Don't be absurd
Don't fight the power,
Nobody gets hurt
If you haven't heard yet then I'm letting you know
There ain't shit we don't run when the guns unload
And no one make a move unless my people say so,
Got everything outta control,
Now everybody go
Steel unload final blow,
We the animals take control,
Hear us now clear and true,
Wretches and kings we come for you
So keep pace how slow can you go,
Talk a lot of shit and yet you don't know
Fire on the way make you all say whoa,
The people up top and the people down low,
Get down
And I'm running it like that
The front of the attack is exactly where I'm at,
Somewhere in between,
The kick and the hi hat,
The pen and the contract,
The pitch and the contact
So get with the combat I'm letting 'em know
There ain't shit you can say to make me back down no
So push the button let the whole thing blow,
Spinning

You've been faking it all this time
You left my trust on the falling line
As the promises break, the only mistake's -
Giving you what was mine
Your words are clear but their meaning's gone
The notes are right but the tuning's wrong
And when you tell me again that I should give in
I can only take it so long (long, long, long)
RAH!
You're terrified, terrified
You'd rather throw it all away, all away, all away!
You're terrified, terrified
You'd rather throw it all away!
Fear is dancing inside your lies
Exposing secrets that you've disguised
And I'm biting my tongue as you become
Victim of a compromise
Cause I know who you really are
Not a scratch where you can take a scar
And it's time that you seek the truth without me
I can only get you so far (far, far, far)
RAH!
You're terrified, terrified
You'd rather throw it all away, all away, all away!
You're terrified, terrified
You'd rather throw it all away!
Throw it all away, all away, way!
Throw it all away, all away, all away, way!
Throw it all away, all away, all away, way!
Throw it all away, all away, all away, way!
Throw it all away, all a!
RAH!
You're terrified, terrified
You'd rather throw it all away, all away, all away!
You're terrified, terrified
You'd rather throw it all away!
All away!
You're terrified, terrified
You'd rather throw it all away, all away, all away!
You're terrified, terrified
You'd rather throw it all away!
This is the first day of my last days
I built it up, now I take it apart
Climbed up real high, now fall down real far
No need to me to stay, the last thing left I just threw it away
I put my faith in god and my trust in you
Now there's nothing more fucked up I could do
Wish there was something real, wish there was something true
Wish there was something real in this world full of you
I'm the one without a soul, I'm the one with this big fucking hole
Now new tale to tell, twenty-six years on my way to hell
Gotta listen to your big time
hard line, bad luck, fist fuck
Don't think you're having all the fun
you know me, I hate everyone
Wish there was something real, wish there was something true
Wish there was something real in this world full of you
Wish there was something real, wish there was something true
Wish there was something real in this world full of you
Wish there was something real, wish there was something true
Wish there was something real in this world full of you
in this world full of you
in this world full of you
in this world full of you
This is war with no weapons, Marchin with no steppin,
Murder with no killin, ill in every direction.
First, no sequel, do the math no equal
A John with no Yoko more power, less people
And yeah I'm not afraid of that print in your paperback
Every rapper's made in fact to act as a delayed attack
Every phrase a razorblade and save it till they play it back
Slay em leave em layin on the paper bank fade to black
In the wastelands of today, when there's nothing left to lose,
And and there's nothing more to take, but you force yourself to choose,
In the wastelands of today, when tomorrow disappears
When the future slips away, and your world turns into fear,
In the wastelands of today
Roll credits, forget it, the show's done,
They're talking for just talkin, meaning they got none,
None of you come proper, they talk like a shotgun,
But how many of you got bred with integrity, not one
So no, I'm not afraid to see you suckas hold a blade to me,
Aint no way to shake the ground I built before you came to be,
Take it how you take it, I'm the opposite of vacancy,
And this not negotiation, I can hear you, wait and see...
In the wastelands of today, when there's nothing left to lose,
And and there's nothing more to take, but you force yourself to choose,
In the wastelands of today, when tomorrow disappears
When the future slips away, and your world turns into fear,
And your world turns into fear, in the wastelands of today!
In the wastelands of today, when there's nothing left to lose,
And and there's nothing more to take, but you force yourself to choose,
In the wastelands of today, when tomorrow disappears
When the future slips away, and your world turns into fear,
And your world turns into fear, in the wastela

This is not the end
This is not the beginning,
Just a voice like a riot
Rocking every revision
But you listen to the tone
And the violet rhythm
Though the words sound steady
Something empty's within 'em
We say Yeah!
With fists flying up in the air
Like we're holding onto something
Thats invisible there,
Cuz we're living at the mercy of
The pain and the fear
Until we dead it, Forget it,
Let it all dissapear.
Waiting for the end to come
Wishing I had strength to stand
This is not what I had planned
It's out of my control....
Flying at the speed of light
Thoughts we're spinning in my head
So many things were left unsaid
It's hard to let you go...
(Oh!) I know what it takes to move on,
I know how it feels to lie,
All I wanna do
Is trade this life for something new
Holding on to what I haven't got
Sitting in an empty room
Trying to forget the past
This was never meant to last,
I wish it wasn't so...
(Oh!) I know what it takes to move on,
I know how it feels to lie,
All I wanna do
Is trade this life for something new
Holding on to what I haven't got
What was left when that fire was gone?
I thought it felt right but that right was wrong
All caught up in the eye of the storm
And trying to figure out what it's like moving on
And i don't even know what kind of things I've said
My mouth kept moving and my mind went dead
So, picking up the pieces, now where to begin?
The hardest part of ending Is starting again!!
All I wanna do
Is trade this life for something new
Holding on to what i haven't got...
This is not the end
This is not the beginning,
Just a voice like a riot
Rocking every revision... Read more »
Forfeit the game, stop the talk show.
Product of what, your taught to know.
Forfeit the game, cause tomorrow
When its all done, you reap what you sow.
You love the way, I look at you
While taking pleasure in the awful things you put me through
You take away if I give in
My life, my pride is broken
You like to think you're never wrong
(You live what you've learned)
You have to act like you're someone
(You live what you've learned)
You want someone to hurt like you
(You live what you've learned)
You want to share what you've been through
(You live what you've learned)
You love the things, I say I do
The way I hurt myself again just to get back at you
You take away when I give in

No regrets for the confidence betrayed,
No more hiding in shadow
Cause I won't wait for the debt to be repaid.
The time has come for you.
Victimized, victimized, never again, victimized
Victimized, victimized, never again, victimized
They're acting like they want a riot, it's a riot I'll give 'em
As the sidle calms, higher on this violent rhythm
These snake in the grass, supplying the venom.
I ain't scared of your teeth, I ain't buying what's in 'em
You'll be waiting in the shadows there thinking they're hidden.
But the truth is you don't have the stomach to get 'em.
Lauren already hit 'em, yeah you got to be kidd'n.
Wanna talk about a victim? Imma put you there with 'em.
Victimized, victimized, never again, victimized
Victimized, victimized, never again, victimized
Noooooooooo
A fire needs a space to burn.
A breath to build a glow.
I've heard it said a thousand times.
But now I know.
That you don't know what you've got.
Oh you don't know what you've got.
No you don't know what you've got.
Until it's gone.
I thought I kept you safe and sound.
I thought I made you strong.
But something made me realize.
That I was wrong.
'Cause finding what you got sometimes.
Is finding it alone.
And I can finally see your light.
When I let go.
'Cause you don't know what you've got.
Until it's gone.
'Til it's gone...
'Cause you don't know what you've got.
Oh you don't know what you've got.
No you don't know what you've got.
It's your battle to be fought.
No you don't know what you've got.
'Til it's gone.
My insides are turned to ash, so slow
And blew away as I collapsed, so cold
A black wind took them away, from sight
And held the darkness over day, that night
And the clouds above move closer
Looking so disatisfied
But the heartless wind kept blowing, blowing
I used to be my own protection, but not now
Cause my path has lost direction, somehow
A black wind took you away, from sight
And held the darkness over day, that night
And the clouds above move closer
Looking so disatisfied
And the ground below grew colder
As they put you down inside
But the heartless wind kept blowing, blowing
So now you're gone
And I was wrong
I never knew what it was like
To be alone
On a Valentine's Day, On a Valentine's Day
On a Valentine's Day, On a Valentine's Day
On a Valentine's Day, On a Valentine's Day
On a Valentine's Day, On a Valentine's Day
(I used to be my own protection but not now)
On a Valentine's Day, On a Valentine's Day
(Cuz my mind has lost direction somehow)
On a Valentine's Day, On a Valentine's Day
(I used to be my own protection but not now)
On a Valentine's Day, On a Valentine's Day
(Cuz my mind has lost direction somehow)
September 13th 1996 Tupac in the mix
of some Sug Night bullsh*t
nobody saw it comin
nobody knew what hit
its been almost 7 years since you been gone
we all miss you dawg
thats why i wrote this song
from "me against the world"
to "all eyes on me"
you was a real mother f*cker
yeah you made me see
you made me see
CHORUS[4x]:
i said nobody saw it comin
nobody even knows why
somebody please tell me why
you had to die
March 9th 1997 LA california
another 1-8-7
you were ready to die
just like your album said
so many player haters
that wana see you dead
took the game of brooklyn
gave it to the world
your whole life revolved around
rap and your little girl
so many rappers out there tryna bite your style
even Em and 50 and 8 mile
you were the man the myth the legend
wonder if you and pac made peace in heaven
I was born with the hunger of a lion, the strength of a sun.
I don't need to sweat it when the competition come.
Original style like an 808 drum,
So I don't run the track.
No, I make the track run.
My mama taught me words, my daddy built rockets.
I put 'em both together. Now, tell me what I got.
It's a pretty smart weapon:
I can shoot it, I can drop it.
But learn to respect it because you surely can't stop it like that.
It ain't over 'cause the shark's on the left side,
the snake's on the right.
And anything you do, they wanna get a little bite.
It really doesn't matter if you're wrong or if you're right.
‘Cause once they get their teeth in,
nothing really fights.
And as for me, I do it like I got nothing to lose.
And you can run your mouth like
you could try to fill my shoes.
But steady little solider,
I ain't standing next to you.
I'd be laying on the ground
before you're even in my view.
Like that.
Give me the strength of the rising sun.
Give me the truth of the words unsung.
And when the last bells ring, the poor men sing
"Bring me to kingdom come"
This is something for your people on the block
to black out and rock to.
Give you what you need like poppa, who shot ya
“Separate the weak from the obsolete”,
You're meek, I creep hard on imposters
And switch styles on the dime, quick-witted
Ya'll quit tripping,
I don't have time for your crying.
I grind tough, sucker, make your mind up.
Are you in the firing squad or are you in the line-up?
Bang bang
Little monkey man playing with the big guns -
will only get you slain I ain't playing.
I'm just saying you

And when I close my eyes tonight
To symphonies of blinding light
God bless us everyone
We're a broken people living under loaded gun
Like memories in cold decay
Transmissions echoing away
Far from the world of you and I
Where oceans bleed into the sky
God save us everyone
Will we burn inside the fires of a thousand suns
For the sins of our hands
The sins of our tongues
The sins of our fathers
The sins of our young
No

Where oceans bleed into the sky
Lift me up, let me go (10x)

It can't outmatched
It can't be outrun
No)
God save us everyone
Will we burn inside the fires of a thousand suns
For the sins of our hands
The sins of our tongues
The sins of our fathers
The sins of our young

I’m standing in the middle of it
Middle of it, middle of it
Yo, y’all better wake up; you think we don’t see y’all drifting?
Sleeping on the job and forgetting your position? (position)
Sit straight and listen; what you are missing
I cook up a batch, hot straight out the kitchen
No indecision, I spit right
Heavy as a fist fight
No gloves and no masks
No pain and no slack
No way to look back
Nobody to say I can’t make my own path
Cause the way that y’all act, I wanna break something
Comin’ at me like the pain I feel means nothing
Comin’ from a place where you can’t relate
Where every word from your face comes across as fake
And I can hardly take, the way that y’all treat us
Sending this out to anyone who won’t believe us
Spelling it out so y’all know the deal
And if you can’t feel it, maybe you can’t feel
I’m standing in the middle of it
Middle of it
Middle of it
Man, who are you?
I’m standing in the middle of it
Middle of it
Middle of it
What are you saying?
I’m standing in the middle of it
Middle of it
Middle of it
What are you writing?
I’m standing in the middle of it
Middle of it
Middle of it
Man, who are you?
Tell ‘em, Motion
Eat your words
Say what you used to say and act how you used to act
Every time you heard my occupation was a rap attack (rap attack)
My conversation’s stacked, I switch my defense on you
Every time you want to get deep you’ll see my knuckle package
Born to die, ferocious emcee make you go back and write your rhymes
My style chokes up like a little league baseball player
It moves, I’m strangling as I’m swinging as main mangler

When this began
I had nothing to say
And I get lost in the nothingness
Inside of me
I was confused
And I let it all out to find
That I’m not the only person
With these things in mind
Inside of me
But all the vacancy
The words revealed
Is the only real thing that
I’ve got left to feel
Nothing to lose
Just stuck, hollow and alone
And the fault is my own
And the fault is my own
I wanna heal
I wanna feel what
I thought was never real
I wanna let go of the pain
I’ve felt so long
Erase all the pain till it’s gone
I wanna heal
I wanna feel like I’m
Close to something real
I wanna find something
I’ve wanted all along
Somewhere I belong
And I’ve got nothing to say
I can’t believe
I didn’t fall right down
On my face
I was confused
Looking everywhere only to find
That it’s not the way I had imagined it
All in my mind
So what am I
What do I have but negativity
Cause I can’t justify the way
Everyone is looking at me
Nothing to lose
Nothing to gain, hollow and alone
And the fault is my own
And the fault is my own
I wanna heal
I wanna feel what
I thought was never real
I wanna let go of the pain
I’ve felt so long
Erase all the pain till it’s gone
I wanna heal
I wanna feel like I’m
Close to something real
I wanna find something
I’ve wanted all along
Somewhere I belong
I will never know myself
Until I do this on my own
And I will never feel anything else
Until my wounds are healed
I will never be anything till
I break away from me
I will break away
I'll find myself today
I close both locks below the window
I close both blinds and turn away
Sometimes solutions aren't so simple
Sometimes goodbye's the only way
[Chorus]
And the sun will set for you
The sun will set for you
And the shadow of the day
Will embrace the world in grey
And the sun will set for you
In cards and flowers on your window
Your friends all plead for you to stay
Sometimes beginnings aren't so simple
Sometimes goodbye's the only way
[Chorus]
And the sun will set for you
The sun will set for you
And the shadow of the day
Will embrace the world in grey
And the sun will set for you
And the shadow of the day
Will embrace the world in grey
And the sun will set for you
And the shadow of the day
Will embrace the world in grey
And the sun will set for you
Skin to bone and steel to rust.
Ash to ash, dust to dust.
Let tomorrow have its way
with the promises we made.
Skin to bone, steel to rust.
Ash to ashes, dust to dust.
Your deception, my disgust.
When your name is finally drawn,
I’ll be happy that you’re gone.
Ash to ashes, dust to dust.
Ahhhh
Ash to ashes, dust to dust.
Ahhhh
Skin to bone and steel to rust.
Right to left and left to right.
Night to day and day to night.
As the starlight fades to grey,
I’ll be marching far away.
Right to left and left to right.
Ahhhh,
Ash to ashes, dust to dust.
Ahhhh
Skin to bone and steel to rust.
Let tomorrow have its way
with the promises we chase.
Skin to bone, steel to rust.
Skin to bone, steel to rust.
Skin to bone, steel to rust.
Weep not for roads untraveled,
weep not for paths alone,
Cause beyond every bend is a long blinding end.
It’s the worse kind of pain I’ve known
Give up your heart left broken
and let that mistake pass on
cause the love that you lost
wasn’t worth what it cost
and in time you’ll be glad it’s gone.
Woah оh
Weep not for roads untraveled,
weep not for sights unseen.
May your love never end and if you need a friend
There’s a seat here along side me.
Woah оh
Graffiti decorations
Under a sky of dust
A constant wave of tension
On top of broken trust
The lessons that you taught me
I learned were never true
Now I find myself in question....
[They point the finger at me again]
Guilty by association....
[You point the finger at me again]
I wanna run away
Never say goodbye
I wanna know the truth
Instead of wondering why
I wanna know the answers
No more lies
I wanna shut the door
And open up my mind
Paper bags and angry voices
Under a sky of dust
Another wave of tension
Has more than filled me up
All my talk of taking action
These words were never true
Now I find myself in question....
[They point the finger at me again]
Guilty by association....
[You point the finger at me again]
I wanna run away
Never say goodbye
I wanna know the truth
Instead of wondering why
I wanna know the answers
No more lies
I wanna shut the door
And open up my mind
I'm gonna run away
and never say good bye...
[Gonna runaway, Gonna runaway, Gonna runaway, Gonna runaway]
I'm gonna run away
And never wonder why...
[Gonna runaway, Gonna runaway, Gonna runaway, Gonna runaway]
I'm gonna run away
And open up my mind...
[Gonna runaway, Gonna runaway]

Hey, Mike, what’s up?
This is Roc, just asking you what’s happening?
I was just touching base, seeing how your Easter went
Um, just seeing if you’re going to see Joe sometime soon, too,
because he’s got my keyboard that I’ve been trying to get back
I’ve been trying to call him and he hasn’t been returning any messages
so I’m seeing what the best angle is to, you know, get it back
Graffiti decorations under a sky of gray
This constant apprehension still giving me away
The lessons I've forgotten
Inside of all I've learned
Now I find myself in question
point the finger at me again
Guilty by association
point the finger at me again
i wunna run away [never say goodbye]
wanna no the truth [ instead of wondaring why]
wanna no the answers [ no more lies]
wanna no the truth [ no more lies]
I wanna shut the door
And open up my mind x3
Paper bags and angry voices under a sky of gray
This constant apprehension won't seem to go away
All my talk of starting over
These words were never true
Now I find myself in question
point the finger at me again
I'm guilty by association
point the finger at me again
I wanna runaway x2
I wanna know the truth x2
I wanna know the answers x2
I wanna shut the door
And open up my mind x3
Hey yo
I don’t think ya'll ready for what I'm about to do
Y'all new school dudes ain't even got no clue
How dare you forget about Bam and Zulu
Two urban jazz DJ's they paved the way
Let me spit it to y'all who said I wasn't gonna make it
Every time I blaze it, ya'll the first to hate it
My team rains supreme and stays strong
Every 2 series son, they scared to put us on
Can't get with the high prince, get off your atis
Too many of y'all is dyin' for us so I gotta blaze it
I'm still reppin BK, Brooklyn D and on
Hell fire and family alienation
Banging hits in the backyard

I didn't think that I had a debt to pay
Till they came to take all I had left away
You said you wouldn't put me to the test today
But I remember you saying that yesterday
There was a time when your mind wasn't out of control
Every memory and confession pouring out of your soul
Like a pill you couldn't swallow, and it swallowed you whole
Another lie, hard to follow, till they followed you home
And like that
Broken down, a victim of your...
Lies
You hide behind, lies
You don't know, why
You crossed the line
Wrapped up inside,
Your Lies
You hide behind, lies
You're lost inside that cold disguise
Behind your lies...
I don't know what you thought I might say
Seems like we never would talk the right way
Every other minute I fought for my place
And drop what I made, And thought you might stay
So, I'm guessing that you probably know
When your insides hollow then you ought to be cold
Like a pill I couldnt swallow, and it swallowed me whole
Another lie, hard to follow, till it followed me home
And like that
(Broken down, a victim of your...)
Lies
You hide behind, lies
You don't know, why
You crossed the line
Wrapped up inside,
Your Lies
You hide behind, lies
You're lost inside that cold disguise
Behind your lies...
(grunt) Rraaaah!
You're faking, you're mistaken
If you think that you could climb out of this hole
Forsaken, what we take with
All the lies above the power of control
The Microphone Molesta
The chevy undressed
Stupid dope fresh tight shit resurrector
Top gun man mod best of the besta
The living MC peace and resta
Still tested the flexed gunna
The make funna the appisary make runna
Make summa cold with rhymes that spit
Get gifted, lifted, delinquent wit
I be the prophet, in my hand
Top it, stop it, felt like rockin when I rock it
Locked it down with this perverse verse
Every fuckin curse I burst to hurt
Room crowds physical fitness rhymes
Coke heads couldn't do my lines
Decorated like Christmas pines with Italian rocks
MCs become silhouettes in shock
Chorus:
Reading my eyes will say it in many ways
Losing my pride will save it in many days
Hit the dirt
Because the words I spit will do more than just rip your shirt
I'll bitch slap your soul
Track the track control
You coming at me?
You can't hack it though
So ridiculous
Watching my crew get sick of this
Wickedness
Pitchin this
Lyrical brichisness
To crews and cliques
Maiden, men, and mistresses
This is my life
The twilight, the fight night
And trying to see nothing but the highlights
When I write
These eyes on horizons
Top of Mike, start cries on to Krylon
Fire on, rude men telekinetically
As aterically beats become a clarity
Feel averity's heroism, and heracy
And severe every MC I see with Neverity
Chorus
Why not
What a keep (3x)
Why not give me what I came to deserve
Why not give me what I came to believe (2x)
Chorus
I've lied to you
The same way that I always do
This is the last smile
That I'll fake for the sake of being with you
Pre-chorus:
[everything falls apart even the people who never frown eventually break down]
The sacrifice of hiding in a lie
[everything has to end you'll soon find we're out of time to watch it all unwind]
The sacrifice is never knowing
Why I never walked away
Why I played myself this way
Now I see your testing me pushes me away
Why I never walked away
Why I played myself this way
Now I see your testing me pushes me away
I've tried like you
To do everything you wanted to
This is the last time
I'll take the blame for the sake of being with you
Pre-chorus:
[everything falls apart even the people who never frown eventually break down]
The sacrifice of hiding in a lie
[everything has to end you'll soon find we're out of time to watch it all unwind]
The sacrifice is never knowing
Why I never walked away
Why I played myself this way
Now I see your testing me pushes me away
Why I never walked away
Why I played myself this way
Now I see your testing me pushes me away
Forfeit the game, before somebody takes you out of the frame

Something in here’s not right today
Why I am so uptight today
Paranoia’s all I got left
I don't know what stressed me first
Or how the pressure was fed
But I know just what it feels like to
have a voice in the back of my head
Like a face that I hold inside
A face that awakes when I close my eyes
Face that watches every time I lie
Face that laughs every time I fall
and watches everything
So I know that when its time to sink or swim
The face inside is hearing me right beneath my skin
Its like I’m paranoid looking over my back
It’s like a whirlwind inside of my head
Its like I can't stop what I'm hearing within
Its like the face inside is right beneath my skin
Hey yo, here we go again with the pain I feel isn't real but in my mind
But I find myself in places with names, but not faces
My memory races at speeds hundred degrees
My soul it bleeds devil must’ve planted the seed
Now it feels like my backs against the wall, I’m taking the fall
Whenever I call nobody's responding at all
But I don't who I could trust they screaming my name
I need somebody to help me out of the flame
all I’m tryin to do is just master me all I want to do is smoke a blaster beat
but something keeps talking to me consciously
responsibly it keeps haunting me
From dusk till dawn
Everything has something for ya
That voice inside of your head got to projected, Paranoia
cold sweat.
Shining on your face exposing your purpose and if I
ripped off your skin I’d probably find another verse
Its nothin worse than trying to bring yourself up back from the dead
so I advise you listen to that voice in the back of your head
Its like I’m paranoid looking over my back ... Read more »
You hid your skeletons when I had shown you mine.
You woke the devil that I thought you'd left behind.
I saw the evidence, the crimson soaking through.
Ten thousand promises, ten thousand ways to lose...
And you held it all but you were careless to let it fall.
You held it all and I was by your side -
Powerless...
I watched you fall apart and chased you to the end.
I'm left with emptiness that words cannot defend.
You'll never know what I became because of you.
Ten thousand promises, ten thousand ways to lose.
And you held it all but you were careless to let it fall.
You held it all and I was by your side -

You held it all and I was by your side -

I hate when you say you don’t understand,
I wanna be in the energy, right with the enemy, a place for my head.
I watch how the moon sits in the sky on a dark night,
Shining with the light from the sun,
The sun doesn’t give light to the moon,
Assuming the moons gonna owe it one,
And makes think of how you act to me, you do favors that rapidly,
You just turn around and start asking me about things you want back from me,
I'm sick of the tension, sick of the hunger,
Sick of you acting like I owe you this,
Find another place to feed your greed,
While I find a place to rest, I’m sick of the tension, sick of the hunger,
Sick of you acting like I owe you this, find another place to feed your greed,
While I find a place to rest.
I wanna be in another place, I hate when you say you don’t understand,
You'll see it's not ment to be
I wanna be in the energy, right with the enemy, a place for my head.

Used to be a team, passed that baton
But you flop that bod as you drop that bomb
Take it to the john in your babylon
Flushed down with the sound that you carry on.
I don't really give a dang you pissed on my lawn
Took a dump like a punk now the battles on.
So sick of you stressin'
Sick of you fessin'
Sick of you actin' like I owe you some
Find another place to feed your face
If you don't we go bump, get it up, get crunk.
Part of me won't go away
Everyday reminded how much I hate it
Weighted against the consequences
Can't live without it so it's senseless
Wanna cut it out of my soul
And just live with a gaping hole
Take control of my life
And wash out all the burnt taste
I made the problems in the first place
Hang my head low cause it's part of me
Ya hardly see right next to the heart of me
Heard of me the routine scar
New cuts cover where the old ones are
And now I'm sick of this
I can't stand the sandpaper thoughts that grade on my sanity
I rather not even be then the man that's staring in the mirror through me
Cut myself free willingly
Stop just what's killing me
Cut myself free willingly
Stop just what's killing me
Cut myself free willingly
Stop just what's killing me
Cut myself free willingly
Stop just what's killing me
Chorus:
I feel it everyday
I feel I made my way
I feel it swell up inside, swell up inside
Swallowing me
Freedom can be frightening if you've never felt it
Once it's been dealt with you feel like you've been touched by something angelic
And then melted down into a pool of peace
Cease to be the animal you used to be
Remove the broken parts you know were wrong
And feel the calm when the problem's all gone
And then you start to see another piece of yourself that you can't let be
Memories of the last fight to free yourself
Take it to the depths of the bottom of the well
And now you know you can choose to lose the part in your heart
Where your insides bruise
You can live if you're willing to
Put a stop to just what's killing you
Cut myself free willingly
Stop just what's killing me
Cut myself free willingly
Stop

Why does it feel like night today?
Something in here's not right today.
Why am I so uptight today?
Paranoia's all I got left
I don't know what stressed me first
Or how the pressure was fed
But I know just what it feels like
To have a voice in the back of my head
It's like a face that I hold inside
A face that awakes when I close my eyes
A face watches every time I lie
A face that laughs every time I fall
(And watches everything)
So I know that when it's time to sink or swim
That the face inside is hearing me
Right underneath my skin
Chorus:
It's like
I'm paranoid lookin' over my back
It's like
a whirlwind inside of my head
It's like
I can't stop what I'm hearing within
It's like
the face inside is right beneath my skin
I know I've got a face in me
Points out all my mistakes to me
You've got a face on the inside too and
Your paranoia's probably worse
I don't know what set me off first
But I know what I can't stand
Everybody acts like the fact of the matter is
I can't add up to what you can but
Everybody has a face that they hold inside
A face that awakes when I close my eyes
A face watches every time they lie
A face that laughs every time they fall
(And watches everything)
So you know that when it's time to sink or swim
That the face inside is watching you too
Right inside your skin
Chorus
The face inside is right beneath your skin (3x)
The sun goes down
I feel the light betray me (Repeat until end)
There's nothing there to see
Nothing but my own mistakes
Staring back at me
Everything has to end, you'll soon find, we're outta time, left to watch it all unwind
Everything falls apart, even the people who never frown eventually break down
Everything has to end, you'll soon find, we're outta time, left to watch it all unwind
Everything falls apart, even the people who never frown eventually break down
I've lied
To you
This is the last smile
That I'll fake for the sake of being with you
Everything falls apart, even the people who never frown eventually break down
Everything has to end, you'll soon find, we're outta time, left to watch it all unwind
For sake of being with you
Everything falls apart, even the people who never frown eventually break down
The sacrifice is never knowing
Why I stayed with you
Just push away
No matter what you see
You're still so blind to me
I've tried
Like you
To do everything you wanted to
This is the last time
I'll take the blame for the sake of being with you
Everything falls apart, even the people who never frown eventually break down
The sacrifice of hiding in a lie
Everything has to end, you'll soon find, we're outta time, left to watch it all unwind
The sacrifice is never knowing
Why I stayed with you
Just push away
No matter what you see
You're still so blind to me
Reverse physcology’s failing miserably
It's so hard to be, left all alone
Telling you is the only chance for me
There’s nothing left but, to turn and face you
When I look into your eyes, there's nothing there to see
Nothing but my own mistakes staring back at me
Asking why...

I cannot take this anymore
I'm saying everything i've said before
All these words they make no sense
I find bliss in ignorance
Less i hear the less you'll say
You'll find that out anyway
Just like before...
Everything you say to me
Takes me one step closer to the edge
And i'm about to break
I need a little room to breathe
'cause i'm one step closer to the edge
And i'm about to break
I find the answers aren't so clear
Wish i could find a way to disappear
All these thoughts they make no sense
I find bliss in ignorance
Nothing seems to go away
Over and over again
Just like before...
Every thing you say to me
Takes me one step closer to the edge
And i'm about to break!
I need a little room to breathe
'cause i'm one step closer to the edge,
And i'm about to break!
Every thing you say to me
Takes me one step closer to the edge
And i'm about to break!
I need a little room to breathe
'cause i'm one step closer to the edge,
And i'm about to break!
Shut up when im talking to you!
Shut up! shut up! shut up!
Shut up when im talking to you!
Shut up! shut up! shut up! shut up!
I'm about to break
Every thing you say to me
Takes me one step closer to the edge
And i'm about to break!
I need a little room to breathe
'cause i'm one step closer to the edge,
And im about to break!

I'm tired of being what you want me to be
Feeling so faithless lost under the surface
Don't know what you're expecting of me
Put under the pressure of walking in your shoes
(Caught in the undertow just caught in the undertow)
Every step that I take is another mistake to you
(Caught in the undertow just caught in the undertow)
I've become so numb I can't feel you there
I've become so tired so much more aware
I'm becoming this all I want to do
Is be more like me and be less like you
Can't you see that you're smothering me
Holding too tightly afraid to lose control
Cause everything that you thought I would be
Has fallen apart right in front of you
(Caught in the undertow just caught in the undertow)
Every step that I take is another mistake to you
(Caught in the undertow just caught in the undertow)
And every second I waste is more than I can take
I've become so numb I can't feel you there
I've become so tired so much more aware
I'm becoming this all I want to do
Is be more like me and be less like you
And I know
I may end up failing too
But I know
You were just like me with someone disappointed in you
I've become so numb I can't feel you there
I've become so tired so much more aware
I'm becoming this all I want to do
Is be more like me and be less like you
I've become so numb I can't feel you there
Is everything what you want me to be
I've become so numb I can't feel you there
Is everything what you want me to be
Finally recover
When the mood is right
Looking up into a neon sky
Time the mean takes over
Guess it's been too long
Since the last time that I tried to fly
[Chorus:]
Finally I find
When I lose control
Inside my body crumbles
It's like therapy
For my broken soul
Inside my body crumbles
Only needs a moment
Just to get away
Hope the stress won't mess up every day
No one final question
And I never doubt
Everything is gonna be okay
[Chorus]
Insecure would be my sign
(I don't know if I'll be alright, I don't know if I'll be alright)
I'll never have to hide
(I don't know if I'll be alright, I don't know if I'll be alright)
Try to live right
(I don't know if I'll be alright, Now I know it's)
It's alright
Finally I find
When I lose control
Inside my body crumbles
It's like therapy
For my broken soul
Inside my body
Yo. Peep the style and the kids checkin for it
The number one question is how could you ignore it
And drop right back in the cut
Over basement tracks with rap sack
Got you backin' us up like rewind that
We just rollin’ with the rhythm
Fast from the ashes of stylist division
With these nonstop lyrics of life livin
Not to be forgotten but still unforgiven
When in the mean time there are those who wanna talk
This and that so what suppose that
It gets to the point to where feelings gotta get hurt
And get dirty with the people spreading the dirt
It goes
I tried to give you warning but everyone ignores me
Told you everything loud and clear
But Nobody’s Listening
Called to you so clearly
But you don’t want to hear me
Told you everything loud and clear
But Nobody’s Listening
I got a heart full of pain, head full of stress, handfull of anger
Held in my chest
And everything left is waste of time
I hate my rhymes, but hate everyone else’s more
Im riding on the back of this pressure
Guessing that its better I can’t keep myself together
Because all of this stress gave me something to write on
Pain gave me something I could set my sights on
Never forget the blood, sweat and tears
The uphill struggle over years
The fear and the trash talking and the people it was to
And the people that started it just like you.
Tried to give you warning but everyone ignores me
Told you everything loud and clear
But Nobody’s Listening
Called to you so clearly
But you don’t want to hear me
Told you everything loud and clear
But Nobody’s Listening
I got a heart full of pain, head full of stress, handfull of anger
Held in my chest
Uphill stuggle, blood , sweat and tears, nothing to gain... Read more »
Are you lost, in your lies
Do you tell yourself I don't realize
Your crusade's a disguise
Replace freedom with fear you trade money for lives
I'm aware of what you've done
[Chorus]
No, no more sorrow
I've paid for your mistakes
Your, time is borrowed
Your, time has come to be replaced
I see pain, I see need
I see liars and thieves abused power with greed
I had hope, I believed
But I'm beginning to think that I've been decieved
You will pay for what you've done
[Chorus]
No, no more sorrow
I've paid for your mistakes
Your, time is borrowed
Your time has come to be replaced
Thieves and hypocrites
Thieves and hypocrites
Thieves and hypocrites
[Chorus]
No, no more sorrow
I've paid for your mistakes
Your, time is borrowed
Your time has come to be replaced
No more sorrow
I've paid for your mistakes
Your, time is borrowed
Your time has come to be replaced
Your time has come to be replaced
Your time has come to be erased
I remembered black skies
The lightning all around me
I remembered each flash
As time began to blur
Like a startling sign
That fate had finally found me
And your voice was all I heard
That I get what I deserve
So give me reason
To prove me wrong
To wash this memory clean
Let the floods cross
The distance in your eyes
Give me reason
To fill this hole
сonnect the space between
Let it fill up to reach the truth that lies
Across this new divide
There was nothing inside
The memories left abandoned
There was nowhere to hide
The ashes fell like snow
And the ground caved in
Between where we were standing
And your voice was all I heard
That I get what I deserve
So give me reason
To prove me wrong
To wash this memory clean
Let the floods cross
The distance in your eyes
Across this new divide
And every loss and every lie
And every truth that you deny
And each regret and each goodbye
Was a mistake too great to hide
And your voice was all I heard
But I get what I deserve
So give me reason
To prove me wrong
To wash this memory clean
Let the thoughts cross
The distance in your eyes
Give me reason
To fill this hole
сonnect the space between
Let it fill up to reach the truth that lies
Across this new divide
U might as well quit while your at it
U aint going no where
I feel so hollow inside
And it’s all your fault
You’re the cause of all this pain
Now I’m left here dying
U think u can beat me
It’s never gonna happen
U wanna reach the end
It’s never gonna happen
Do what u wanna do
It aint gonna happen
I wont let u do this
Not anymore
Ur so vindictive
U always have been
I regret the day I met u, I saw u
Now u don’t even remember me
I’m just the voice in your head
Screaming, crying
And telling you……
live a life that's sheltered
I'm constantly alone
reporting on my weakness
there's emptiness at home
I need to find a reason
to live this way
I'm running out of patience and my life is over
I'm standing here but I'm on my way
searching to find them answer
standing here but it's all the same
and I'm running out of patience
well I will obtain
my reason
for you
and I have gained
a reason
for you
but you left me
you left me here and I'm all alone
theres drifting by another scent
I take pity in myself
searching the event that kept me in this hell
I need to find a reason
to live this way
I'm running out of patience and my life is over
I'm standing here but I'm on my way
searching to find them answer
standing here but it's all the same
and I'm running out of patience
well I will obtain
my reason
for you
well I have gave
a reason
for you
but you left me
you left me here and I'm all alone
I'm all alone
I'm all alone
I'm all alone
I'm all a
a(strech out a long time)
well I'm searching to find my reason
to find a reason
to find my reason why I need you
and I need you
and I want you
but I need to
get away from you
and I need you
and I want you
but I need to
get away from you
and I need you
and I want you
but I need to
get away from you
and I need you
and I want you
but I need to
get away from you
well I will take my reason for you
and I needed someone to love me
but you just left me
here and allowed me
you know I needed someone to love me
but I'm all alone
