"So I found myself in the sun, oh yeah/A hell of a place to end a run, oh yeah/California, I'm fine/Somebody check my brain/California's all right/Somebody check my brain"

"You know its been on my mind/Could you stand right there/Look me straight in the eye and say/That it's over now"

"Hey, let them do it again, yeah/Hey, you said you were my friend/Hey, turn me upside down, Oh/Hey, feelin' so down"

"Like the coldest winter will/Heaven beside you... Hell within/And you think you have it still, heaven inside you"

"Be what you wanna be/See what you came to see/Been what you wanna be/I don't like what I see"

"Come the morning light/It's a see-through show/What you may have heard and/What you think you know"

"Well I forgot my woman, lost my friends/Things I've done and where I've been/Sleep in sweat - the mirror's cold/Seen my face? It's growin' old/Scared to death, no reason why/Do whatever to get me by/Think about the things I've said/Read the page its cold and dead"

"Hey, I ain't never coming home/Hey, I'll just wander my own road/Hey-hey, I can't meet you here tomorrow - no, no/Say goodbye don't follow/Misery so hollow"

"Yeah, it's fine/We'll walk down the line/Leave our rain, a cold/Trade for warm sunshine/You my friend/I will defend/And if we change, well I love you anyway"

"It's okay/Had a bad day/Hands are bruised from/Breaking rocks all day/Drained and blue/I bleed for you/You think it's funny, well/You're drowning in it too"

"Everyday it's something/Hits me all so cold/Find me sittin' by myself/No excuses, then I know"

"It's alright/There comes a time/Got no patience to search/For peace of mind/Layin' low/Want to take it slow/No more hiding or/Disguising truths I've sold"

"Why you act frightened/I am enlightened/Your weakness builds me/So someday you'll see"

"Why you act crazy/Not an act maybe/So close a lady/Shifty eyes shady"

"We chase misprinted lies/We face the path of time/And yet I fight/And yet I fight/This battle all alone/No one to cry to/No place to call home"

"Am I wrong?/Have I run too far to get home/Have I gone?/Left you here alone/If I would, could you?"

"Drifting body, its sole exertion/Flying, not yet quite the notion"

"Into the flood again/Same old trip it was back then/So I made a big mistake/Try to see it once my way"

"I don't mind, yeah/I don't mind, I-I-I/I don't mind, yeah/I don't mind, I-I-I/Lost my mind, yeah/But I don't mind, I-I-I/Can't find it anywhere/I don't mind"

"Sitting on an angry chair/Angry walls that steal the air/Stomach hurts and I don't care/What do I see across the way, hey/See myself molded in clay, oh/Stares at me, yeah I'm afraid, hey/Changing the shape of his face, oh yeah"

"Stare at me with empty eyes and/Point your words at me/Mirror on the wall will show you/What you're scared to see"

"Walkin' tall machine gun man/They spit on me in my home land/Gloria sent me pictures of my boy/Got my pills 'gainst mosquito death/My buddy's breathin' his dyin' breath/Oh god please won't you help me make it through"

"Here they come to snuff the rooster/Ah yeah, yeah/Yeah, here come the rooster, yeah/You know he ain't gonna die/No, no, no, you know he ain't gonna die"

"Ain't found a way to kill me yet/Eyes burn with stinging sweat/Seems every path leads me to nowhere/Wife and kids, household pet/Army green was no safe bet/The bullets scream to me from somewhere"

"Down in a hole, losing my soul/Down in a hole, losing control/I'd like to fly,/But my wings have been so denied"

"Down in a hole and I don't know if I can be saved/I sing my heart out decorated like a grave/You don't understand who they thought I was supposed to be/Look at me now I'm a man who won't let himself be"

"Bury me softly in this womb/I give this part of me for you/Sand rains down and here I sit/Holding rare flowers/In a tomb... in Bloom"

"I pushed and then you stumbled/I kicked you in the face/You stare at me so hollow/Got to keep that killin' pace"

"Oh, you couldn't dam that river/And maybe I don't give a damn anyway/So you couldn't dam that river/And it washed me so far away"

"I broke you in the canyon/I drowned you in the lake/You a snake that I would trample/Only thing I'd not embrace"

"Dust rise right on over my time/Empty fossil of the new scene/I feel so alone, gonna end up a/Big hole pile a them bones"

"I believe them bones are me/Some say we're born into the grave/I feel so alone, gonna end up a/Big ol' pile a them bones"

"As of now I bet you've got me wrong/So unsure you run from something strong"

"Yeah, it goes away/All of this and more of nothing in my life/No colored clay/Individuality not safe"

"These stand for me/Name your god and bleed the freak/I'd like to see/How you all would bleed for me"

"I live tomorrow/You I'll not follow/As you wallow/In a sea of sorrow"

"Walls of thought, strong and high/As my castle crumbles with time/I think of you/Oh, yes I do/Such a crime"

"Mind, of destructive taste/I choose...to stroll amongst the waste/That was your heart/Lost in the dark/Call off the chase"

"I'm the dog who gets beat/Shove my nose in shit"

"Feed my eyes (can you sow them shut?)/Jesus Christ (deny your maker)/He who tries (will be wasted)/Fear in my eyes (now you told me)"

"I'm the man in the box/Buried in my shit/Won't you come and save me?/Save me"

"Another alley trip/Bullet seek the place to bend you over/Then you got hit/And you should of known better/Faster we run/And we die young"

"Down, down, down you're rollin'/Watch the blood float in the muddy sewer/Take another hit/And bury your brother"
