"The world’s been waiting, they’ve been waiting for years And they’ve just gotta hear it The kids are waiting, they’ve been shedding tears So open your arms and sing for us"

"You never tried facing the sting Walking all in circles, take it all in stride Faces are not what they seem, I always dream lost in the tide"

"Old habits die hard When you got, when you got a sentimental heart Piece of the puzzle, you're my missing part Oh, what can you do with a sentimental heart?"

"I want to be where your heart is home I want to see you with the light in the morning There’s never been such a beautiful warning to me, to me"

"Why don’t we just sit and stare and do nothing? Nothing at all for a while I like the way you smile I could be your state and I could be your nation It doesn’t get better than home, now does it?"

"California is a great big nation of one They never knew what they wanted ’til it was already gone"

"Well I know that you worry a lot about Things you can't control There are so many things we'd like to have But we just cannot hold You've got to be kind to yourself You've got to be kind to yourself"

"Well I'm back in your good graces again Remember when you told me that I was your only friend?"

"He was different at first But then he won't understand Because he's never gonna know me If he doesn't want to just shake my hand"

"And the world's like a science And I'm like a secret And I saw you lingering still, still I saw you lingering still"

"My eyes are so bleary I guess I'm young but I feel so weary I've tried to express it But I think it's all a bore It's at the heart of me, A very part of me."

"Every little moment looks so dull, without your color in my day."

"Heaven's not a place you go when you die It's that moment in life when you actually feel alive"

"Love is just a hoax so forget anything that you have heard (forget everything) And live for the moment now."

"And take this advice, live by every word Love's completely real, so forget anything that you've heard And live for the moment now."

"I will sleep another day I don't really need to anyway What's the point when my dreams are infected With words you used to say I will breathe in a moment As long as I keep my distance I wouldn't want to go messing anything up"

"There's nothing wrong with being lonely"

"Do I have to spell it out for you or scream it in your face? Oh, the chemistry between us could destroy this place."

"Fate is an elegant, cold-hearted whore She loves salting my wounds Yes, she enjoys nothing more I bleed confidence from deep within my guts now I'm the king of this pity party with my jewel encrusted crown"

"You make it dry when it's raining outside You warm my blood when the temperature dies You're my crutch when it's all to hard to bare See without you here I could not be anywhere"

"I used to know you like the back of my hand Until today you held your place Now you're shifting like the sand"

"Denial feels so good. We don't have a problem at all."

"So fill your shoes with cement, And kiss the ones you love, With reckless abandonment."

"Yeah he's a looker, but I really think it's guts that matter most. I displayed them for you, strewn out about from coast to coast."

"All Over You"

"Why won't you just love me back?"

"There are things in this world, that I don't understand. Like: Love, war, gravity, or the lay of the land. But all of these remain mysteries, but one thing is for sure, you are worth living for."

"It's those pills that you don't need to take, medicating perfection, now that's a mistake."

"I wanted to walk throught the empty streets and feel something constant under my feet but all the news reports recommended that I stay indoors. Because the air outside will make our cells divide at an alarming rate, until our shelves simply cannot hold all our insides in and that's when we'll explode; And it won't be a pretty sight."

"I've got a cupboard with cans of food, filtered water, And pictures of you and i'm not coming out Until this is all over And i'm looking through the glass where the light bends At the cracks And i'm screaming at the top of my lungs pretending The echoes belong to someone Someone i used to know"

"I want so badly to believe, That there is truth, that love is real. And I want life in every word, To the extent that it's absurd."

"I feel must interject here. You're getting carried away feeling sorry for yourself, with these revisions and gaps in history. So let me help you remember; I've made charts and graphs that should finally make it clear. I've prepared a lecture on why I have to leave."

"Again last night I had that strange dream Where everything was exactly how it seemed Where concerns about the world getting warmer The people thought they were just being rewarded For treating others as they'd like to be treated For obeying stop signs and curing diseases For mailing letters with the address of the sender Now we can swim any day in November"

"Last week I had the strangest dream Where everything was exactly how it seemed Where there was never any mystery of who shot John F. Kennedy It was just a man with something to prove Slightly bored and severely confused He steadied his rifle with his target in the center And became famous on that day in November"

"I am thinking it's a sign that the freckles In our eyes are mirror images and when We kiss they're perfectly aligned And I have to speculate that God himself Did make us into corresponding shapes like Puzzle pieces from the clay"

"This place is a prison And these people aren't your friends Inhaling thrills through $20 bills And the tumblers are drained and then flooded again And again"

"Racing shadows through the moonlight Through the desert on a hot night. For a second there we won, We were innocent and young."

"Spent the summer just layin' out in the sun. Time seems to move so slowly, when you're taking it as it comes. Maybe we were just too young. Your body was tan and your hair was long. You shot me a smile and my cares were gone Fallin' in love filled my soul with fright You said, "Come on, babe, it'll be alright." I must've been a fool to the bitter end, Now I hold on to hope that I'll have you back again."

"Blonde hair blowing in the summer wind, A blue-eyed girl playing in the sand. I'd been on her trail for a little while, But that was the night that she broke down and held my hand. A teenage rush. She said, "Ain't we all just runaways? We got time."But that ain't much. We can't wait till tomorrow. You got to know that this is real, baby, why you want to fight it? It's the one thing you can choose, oh!"

"The storm maker says, "It ain't so bad." The dream maker's gonna make you mad. The spaceman says, "Everybody look down, It's all in your mind.""

"Are we human? Or are we dancer? My sign is vital, My hands are cold, And I'm on my knees Looking for the answer. Are we human? Or are we dancer?"

"Always here, always on time Close call, was it love or was it just easy? Money talks when people need shoes and socks. Steady boys, I'm thinking she needs me.I was just sipping on something sweet, I don't need political process."

"Or should I just get along with myself? I never did get along with everybody else. I've been trying hard to do what's right, But you know I could stay here all night And watch the clouds fall from the sky."

"The good old days, the honest man, The restless heart, the Promised Land. A subtle kiss that no one sees, A broken wrist and a big trapeze. Oh, well, I don't mind if you don't mind 'Cause I don't shine if you don't shine. Before you go, can you read my mind?"

"There was an open chair. We sat down in the open chair. I said if destiny’s kind, I’ve got the rest of my mind. But my heart, it don’t beat, it don’t beat the way it used to. And my eyes, they don’t see you no more. And my lips, they don’t kiss, they don’t kiss the way they used to. And my eyes don’t recognize you at all.For reasons unknown, For reasons unknown."

"I pack my case. I check my face. I look a little bit older. I look a little bit colder. With one deep breath, and one big step, I move a little bit closer. I move a little bit closer, For reasons unknown."

"They say the devil's water — it ain't so sweet. You don't have to drink right now, But you can dip your feet Every once in a little while."

"We hope you enjoy your stay Outside the sun is shining It seems like heaven ain't far away."

"Why do you waste my time? Is the answer to the question on your mind. And I'm sick of all my judges; So scared of what they'll find. But I know that I can make it As long as somebody takes me home Every now and then."

"I got soul but I'm not a soldier Time, truth, and hearts."
