What were the skies like when u were young?
They went on for ever and they when I we lived in Arizona and the skies
always had little fluffy clouds and. they were long and clear and there
were lots of stars, at night.
And when it rain it would all turn, it, they were beautiful, the most
beautiful skies as a matter of fact, the sunsets were purple and red and
yellow and on fire and the clouds would catch the colours everywhere,
thats, its neat because I used to look at them all the time when i was
little. You don’t see that.Little fluffy clouds and little fluffy clouds and lilili…

You don’t know the half of it
I had a starring role
I was the bad guy who walked out
They say be careful where you aim
Because where you aim you just might hit
You can hold onto something so tight
You’ve already lost it
Dragging me down
That’s not the way it used to be
You can’t even remember what I’m trying to forgetIt was a dirty day
Yeah a dirty day
You want explanations for things I don’t understand
If you need someone to blame
Hey throw a rock in the air
You’re bound to hit someone guiltyFrom father to son
In one life has begun
A work that’s never done
Father to sonLove it won’t last kissin’ time
Get it right
There’s no blood thicker than ink
Hear what I say
Nothing’s as simple as you think
Wake up
Some things you can’t get around
I’m in you
More so when they put me in the groundDays days run away like horses over the hill
Those days days days run away like horses over the hill
Those days days days run away like horses over the hill
Those days days days run away like horses over the hillLove it won’t last kissin’ time
Love it won’t last kissin’ time
Love it won’t last kissin’ time
Love it won’t last kissin’ time5 April, 2009 at 4:38 pm #140004HOT AND COLD
You change your mind
Like a girl changes clothes
Yeah you, PMS
Like a bitch
I would knowAnd you always think
Always speak
CrypticlyI should know
That you’re no good for meCause you’re hot then you’re cold
You’re yes then you’re no
You’re in and you’re out
You’re up and you’re down
You’re wrong when it’s right
It’s black and it’s white
We fight, we break up
We kiss, we make upYou, You don’t really want to stay, no
You, but you don’t really want to go-o
You’re hot then you’re cold
You’re yes then you’re no
You’re in and you’re out
You’re up and you’re downWe used to be
Just like twins
So in sync
The same energy
Now’s a dead battery
Used to laugh bout nothing
Now your plain boringI should know that
you’re not gonna changeCause you’re hot then you’re cold
You’re yes then you’re no
You’re in and you’re out
You’re up and you’re down
You’re wrong when it’s right
It’s black and it’s white
We fight, we break up
We kiss, we make upYou, You don’t really want to stay, no
You, but you don’t really want to go-o
You’re hot then you’re cold
You’re yes then you’re no
You’re in and you’re out
You’re up and you’re downSomeone call the doctor
Got a case of a love bi-polar
Stuck on a roller coaster
Can’t get off this rideYou change your mind
Like a girl changes clothesCause you’re hot then you’re cold
You’re yes then you’re no
You’re in and you’re out
You’re up and you’re down
You’re wrong when it’s right
It’s black and it’s white
We fight, we break up
We kiss, we make upYou’re hot then you’re cold
You’re yes then you’re no
You’re in and you’re out
You’re up and you’re down
You’re wrong when it’s right
It’s black and it’s white
We fight, we break up
We kiss, we make upYou, you don’t really want to stay, no
You, but you don’t really want to go-o
You’re hot then you’re cold
You’re yes then you’re no
You’re in and you’re out
You’re up and you’re down11 April, 2009 at 6:00 pm #140005Girlfriend in a coma
I know
I know
It’s serious
Girlfriend in a coma
I know
I know
It’s really seriousThere were times when I could have murdered her
But you know I would hate anything to happen to her
No I don’t want to see her
Do you really think she’ll pull through?
Do you really think she’ll pull through?
Do you?Girlfriend in a coma
I know
I know
It’s serious
Bye bye bye bye bye bye baby goodbyeThere were times when I could have strangled her
But you know I would hate anything to happen to her
Would you please let me see her?
Do you really think she’ll pull through?
Do you really think she’ll pull through?
Do you?Let me whisper my last goodbyes
I know
It’s serious11 April, 2009 at 6:43 pm #140006A bit of Springsteen for your delight..
The screen door slams
Marys dress sways
Like a vision she dances across the porch
As the radio plays
Roy orbison singing for the lonely
Hey thats me and I want you only
Dont turn me home again
I just cant face myself alone again
Dont run back inside
Darling you know just what Im here for
So youre scared and youre thinking
That maybe we aint that young anymore
Show a little faith, theres magic in the night
You aint a beauty, but hey youre alright
Oh and thats alright with meYou can hide `neath your covers
And study your pain
Make crosses from your lovers
Throw roses in the rain
Waste your summer praying in vain
For a savior to rise from these streets
Well now Im no hero
Thats understood
All the redemption I can offer, girl
Is beneath this dirty hood
With a chance to make it good somehow
Hey what else can we do now?
Except roll down the window
And let the wind blow
Back your hair
Well the nights busting open
These two lanes will take us anywhere
We got one last chance to make it real
To trade in these wings on some wheels
Climb in back
Heavens waiting on down the tracks
Oh-oh come take my hand
Riding out tonight to case the promised land
Oh-oh thunder road, oh thunder road oh thunder road
Lying out there like a killer in the sun
Hey I know its late we can make it if we run
Oh thunder road, sit tight take hold
Thunder roadWell I got this guitar
And I learned how to make it talk
And my cars out back
If youre ready to take that long walk
From your front porch to my front seat
The doors open but the ride it aint free
And I know youre lonely
For words that I aint spoken
But tonight well be free
All the promisesll be broken
There were ghosts in the eyes
Of all the boys you sent away
They haunt this dusty beach road
In the skeleton frames of burned out chevroletsThey scream your name at night in the street
Your graduation gown lies in rags at their feet
And in the lonely cool before dawn
You hear their engines roaring on
But when you get to the porch theyre gone
On the wind, so mary climb in
Its a town full of losers
And Im pulling out of here to win.13 April, 2009 at 2:57 pm #140007Portobello road, Portobello road

15 April, 2009 at 9:15 am #140008The heart is a bloom
Shoots up through the stony ground
There’s no room
No space to rent in this townYou’re out of luck
And the reason that you had to care
The traffic is stuck
And you’re not moving anywhereYou thought you’d found a friend
To take you out of this place
Someone you could lend a hand
In return for graceIt’s a beautiful day
Sky falls, you feel like
It’s a beautiful day
Don’t let it get awayYou’re on the road
But you’ve got no destination
You’re in the mud
In the maze of her imaginationYou love this town
Even if that doesn’t ring true
You’ve been all over
And it’s been all over youIt’s a beautiful day
Don’t let it get away
It’s a beautiful dayTouch me
Take me to that other place
Teach me
I know I’m not a hopeless caseSee the world in green and blue
See China right in front of you
See the canyons broken by cloud
See the tuna fleets clearing the sea out
See the Bedouin fires at night
See the oil fields at first light
And see the bird with a leaf in her mouth
After the flood all the colors came outIt was a beautiful day
Don’t let it get away
Beautiful dayTouch me
Take me to that other place
Reach me
I know I’m not a hopeless caseWhat you don’t have you don’t need it now
What you don’t know you can feel it somehow
What you don’t have you don’t need it now
Don’t need it now
Was a beautiful dayU2

Yesterday don’t matter if it’s gone
While the sun is bright
Or in the darkest night
No one knows
She comes and goesGoodbye, Ruby Tuesday
Who could hang a name on you?
When you change with every new day
Still I’m gonna miss you…Don’t question why she needs to be so free
She’ll tell you it’s the only way to be
She just can’t be chained
To a life where nothing’s gained
And nothing’s lost
At such a costGoodbye, Ruby Tuesday
Who could hang a name on you?
When you change with every new day
Still I’m gonna miss you…There’s no time to lose, I heard her say
Catch your dreams before they slip away
Dying all the time
Lose your dreams
And you may lose your mind.
Ain’t life unkind?Goodbye, Ruby Tuesday
Who could hang a name on you?
When you change with every new day
Still I’m gonna miss you…Goodbye, Ruby Tuesday
Who could hang a name on you?
When you change with every new day
Still I’m gonna miss you…31 May, 2009 at 4:14 pm #140011I’m not numbed out anymore
No longer feel the hate and pain
No longer drenched in shame
I’m not numbed out anymore
Now I own the key to the doorThe kingdom of heaven lies inside
Makes a circle with the turning tide
Now the circle is complete
And the heart and mind they meet
The kingdom of heaven lies insideI love visions of you (endlessly)
I love visions of you (endless)It’s a vision for me and for you
Hell can be a circle too
With pentation unbroken
The truth remains unspoken
A vision for me and for youI love visions of you (endlessly)
I love visions of you (endlessly)
I love visions of you (endlessly)I love visions of you (endlessly)
I love visions of you (endlessly)I’m not numbed out anymore
No longer am filled with hate and pain
I’m no longer drenched in shame
I’m not numbed out anymore
Now I own the key to the doorI love visions of you (endlessly)
I love visions of you . . . . .
I love . . . . .Invaders Of The Heart
