"It's not worth anything more than this at all; I live as I choose or I will not live at all."

"Another mother's breakin' Heart is takin' over. When the violence causes silence, We must be mistaken."

"Another head hangs lowly Child is slowly taken And the violence caused such silence Who are we mistaken? But you see, it's not me, it's not my family. In your head, in your head, they are fightin'. With their tanks and their bombs and their bombs and their guns, In your head, in your head, they are cryin'. In your head, in your head Zombie, zombie, zombie-ie-ie"

"It's the same old theme Since nineteen-sixteen..."

"Unhappiness where's when I was young And we didn't give a damn Cause we were raised To see life as fun and take it if we can. My mother, my mother, She'd hold me. She'd hold me when I was out there. My father, my father, He liked me, well he liked me. Does anyone care?"

"If you, if you could return Don't let it burn, Don't let it fade. I'm sure I might be rude, But it's just your attitude. It's tearing me apart. It's ruining everything. And I swore, I swore I would be true. And honey, so did you. So why were you holding her hand? Is that the way we stand? Were you lying all the time? Was it just a game to you?But I'm in so deep. You know I'm such a fool for you. You've got me wrapped around your finger. Do you have to let it linger? Do you have to, do you have to, do you have to let it linger?"

"Lying in my bed again And I cry cause you're not here. Crying in my head again And I know that it's not clear. Put your hands, put your hands Inside my face and see that it's just you. But it's bad and it's mad And it's making me sad Because I can't be with you."

"There's no need to argue No need to argue anymore There's no need to argue anymore"

"To all those people doing lines: Don't do it, don't do it. Inject your soul with liberty, It's free, it's free."

"I know I've felt like this before, But now I'm feeling it even more Because it came from you.Then I open up and see The person falling here is me: A different way to be."

"And in the night I could be helpless, I could be lonely Sleeping without you.And in the day Everything's complex, There's nothing simple When I'm not around you."

"You're spinning me around, My feet are off the ground. I don't know where I stand. Do you have to hold my hand? You mystify me. You mystify me. You mystify me."

"Oh, my life Is changing every day, In every possible way.And oh, my dreams, It's never quite as it seems, Never quite as it seems."

"I need perfection, Some twisted selection That tangles me, To keep me alive.In all that exists, None have your beauty. I see your face. I will survive."

"Don't ask me What you know is true. Don't have to tell you I love your precious heart.I... I was standing. You were there. Two worlds collided. And they could never tear us apart."

"Got some revelation put into your hands. Save you from your misery Like rain across the land. Don't you see? The colour of deception Turning your world around again."

"Say I'm crying; I'm looking at what's on T.V. Pain and suffering And the struggle to be free."

"Hallucinate, desegregate. Mediate, alleviate. Try not to hate."

"In a room above a busy street, The echoes of a life, The fragments and the accidents, Separated by incidents.Listen too by the walls. We share the same spaces, Repeated in the corridors, Performing the same movements.Storey to storey, Building to building, Street to street. We pass each other on the stairs."

"The devil inside, the devil inside, Every single one of us the devil inside."

"Your eyes are like deep wells of desire. Once in your arms I'm on fire. You were sent girl so perfectly true, Changing my life. Now I'm a survivor.Heaven sent, That's what I call you."

"So slide over here And give me a moment. Your moves are so raw. I've got to let you know. I've got to let you know, You're one of my kind.I need you tonight Cause I'm not sleeping. There's something about you girl That makes me sweat."

"In the dark of the night, Those small hours. Uncertain and anxious, I need to call you.Rooms full of strangers, Some call me friend. But I wish you were so close to me."

"Bitter tears taste so sweet. I'm seeing my way For the first time in years. When the love around Begins to suffer, And you can't find love In one, In one another, Push away those bitter tears."

"Dream on white boy, Dream on black girl. And wake up to a brand new day To find your dreams have washed away."

"I'm standing here on the ground, The sky above won't fall down. See no evil in all directions, Resolution of happiness. Things have been dark For too long.Don't change for you. Don't change a thing for me."

"And I imagine you standing here. It's subliminal, so inspirational. Man of the world for all the good reasons. Take away the pain and drink the wine.I miss the people, I miss the fun. You're my apparition, She's my only one."

"Watch the world argue, Argue with itself. Who's going to teach me Peace and happiness?We could sit here forever, Just never get old. Listen to the world Letting God's tyres down."

"Well, you know just what you do to me, The way you move, soft and slippery. Cut the night just like a razor, Rarely talk, and that's the danger.It's the one thing. You are my thing."

"It's no use pretending That I understand The hide and seek we play with facts. It changes our demand.Tilt my hat at the sun, And the shadows they burn dark. Light me and I'll burn for you, And the love song never stops."

"Hey, here is the story: Forget about the troubles in life. Don't you know, it's not easy When you gotta walk upon that line.That's why - You need Oooo, that's why. - This is what you need. I'll give you what you need."

"Live baby live, Now that the day is over. I gotta new sensation, In perfect moments. Impossible to refuse. Sleep baby sleep, Now that the night is over. And the sun comes Like a god into our room. All perfect light and promises."

"Playing in the dirt, We find the seeds of doubt. Don't water them with your tears. Don't think about all the years you'd rather be without."

"When you're down and confused, Nothing seems right. And it's you who decides Who's going to make it right."

"Look at all that shines. Baby's down on the world and she knows it. If your spirit's running, Why don't me make it rain like we used to? We run, We hide, We wait and we want The good life. Aw sure, You're right. This ain't the good life.Ah, Elegantly wasted. Ah, Elegantly wasted."

"Now where did you find her? Among the neon lights That haunt the streets outside. She said, stay with me.Beautiful girl (stay with me)."

"We are always wanting The things we cannot find. You know that we are Always wasting time."

"Here comes the woman, with the look in her eye, Raised on leather, with flesh on her mind. Words as weapons, sharper than knives. Makes you wonder, how the other half die? Other half die Makes you wonder, wonder, wonder."

"And I was lost for words In your arms, Attempting to make sense Of my aching heart. If I could just be Everything and everyone to you, This life would just be so easy."

"Yeah, we're not the only ones Who bleed for the love that's lost. Trust, like the air we breathe. Live, you've got to loose some sleep.Everything you do for me, Everything I do for you. Everything you do for me, No one else comes close to you."

"The heart you're building out of rock Is turning into sand 'Cause you never took the time to think What it means to be a man."

"No, I don't believe you went to bed at 10:15. Victoria, you're tearin' me up. You said you'd call, I waited up. I don't know why I even try, I need another tequila. She goes out, lets her hair down, bumps up. I'm all alone. She's groovin' to a Coldplay dance mix turned up. I'm all alone."

"'Cause I tried to forgive you For the shit you put me through. But it's just the hardest thing to do. So I guess it's goodbye brother. Goodbye rock and roll. Guess it's goodbye to the only life I know. It's a shame you couldn't just say you were hurting. I will see you on the other side of the curtain."

"So denied, so I lied. Are you the now or never kind? In a day and a day love, I'm gonna be gone for good again. Are you willing to be had? Are you cool with just tonight? Here's a toast to all those Who hear me all too well. Here's to the nights we felt alive. Here's to the tears you knew you'd cry. Here's to goodbye. Tomorrow's gonna come too soon."

"In the throes of young love, Leroy Didn't think to think and in the blink of an eye Tied the knot not knowing how to know. He was the prodigal son; this girl had brought him home."

"When all is said and done And dead, does he love you The way that I do? Breathing in lighting, Tonight's for fighting. I feel the hurt so physical. Think twice before you touch my girl. Come around I'll let you feel the burn."

"One thousand faces all look the same; They're all so boring mild and tame. Contaminate him, knock off his glasses, Teach him to tamper with the cloning process. Pardon me sir can I ask you a favor? Make me a cowboy like my next door neighbor. Pardon me sir can I use your eraser To remove my brain of unconventional nature? Take my tongue, It's cocked and loaded. The board has dubbed you "special student". Sit alone sweat in silence. We don't tolerate defiance."

"I promise not to try not to fuck with your mind. I promise not to mind if you go your way and I go mine. I promise not to lie if I'm looking you straight in the eye. I promise not to try not to let you down."

"Down to the corner to call collect, Your mother wants to know, "Are you happy yet?" Waiting for someone to come along and find you. Going on a night looking for distraction. Sleeping through the day, there's no redemption. Waiting for someone to come along and find you. At least you're breathin', At least you're alive, As long as you're dreamin', Everything's gonna be alright. See everything's gonna be alright..."

"I would swallow my pride, I would choke on the rinds, But the lack thereof would leave me empty inside. Swallow my doubt, turn it inside out, Find nothin' but faith in nothin'. Want to put my tender Heart in a blender, Watch it spin 'round to a beautiful oblivion. Rendezvous, then I'm through with you."
