well,
all my lovers and all my friends
are gonna keep on comin' back again
they're gonna find the way
find the scent
i'll never get away
wish i had something more
that i could call my own
i'll never find the thing
that could help me
get away
i waited all night
just to talk to with you
the mirrors in my eyes
never see it fit to shine
don't want to be myself
i'd rather be in hell
let me tie my own shoes
let me be this blue

dot com pt. 2

|
if you've got a lot,
show it
if you've got a lot of need-it,
show it somehow
if you've got a lot of standin',
soon enough you'll be sittin' down
if you've got a lot of needin',
if you've not another place to be somehow,
do you wanna be with me
right now
some way
somehow?
dot com!
feels like i'm always missing connections
dot com!
dot com!
feels like i'm always giving up control
dot com!
i wouldn't waste your time...
...we can waste mine
i never wanna be
another waste of time
will you get it off my mind?
will you please carry me?

|
therefore,
you are to me: asleep
(when i come out to play with thee)
and all this time,

here
i am to reside
by myself in this room all alone
by myself i will make my presence known

not happy
01:27
|
|||
|
she is so very happy
to be
on the driver's side
oh, so very happy
to be on the driver's side of life
oh, so very happy
but, oh!
what a puzzling cast!
and it's hard to imagine
her happier again.
"i'm not happy!"
that's surely not what you meant
"i'm not happy!"
oh, what a shattering sound

something i'm not
01:25
|
|||
|
i never wanna go
i never wanna be
i never wanna see
anything i don't wanna see
i never wanna be the apparition
of an angel
to anyone at all
i like to feel the breeze
i like you near to me
i like to think of you
it takes me to heaven
i hate to hate myself
i am somebody else
i am a parody of all that is rejected

long drive
01:53
|
|||
|
you wake me
still hours to arrive
i give a blank stare
you are sure to recognize
sleep is the only way for me
to find the thing they all call peace
bring the winter to light
bring the day where there is night
drawing back now,
i am so ashamed...
and is there ever gonna be
someone i can love?
|
||||
11. |
what will u do
01:35
|
|||
|
when they come for you
wonder
what will you do?
what will you ask them for?
will they have you on the floor?
a pretty way to lust
fill your glass and drink you up
lately i find
this way will never die
|

make up
02:46
|
|||
|
no one ever got it all right
and no one ever got it bad
how do i get this feeling?
and how do i shake it now?
nobody wants to fall back
how do i know myself?
i'm wishing i had coming
i'm wishing i had it all to myself
make up your mind
a lot has happened to me
since the way and the time
it happened to be
a lot of faith
before i surface to shore
and then they'll come to me
and i'll find myself assured

got caught in the sand
00:54
|
|||
|
got caught
in the sand
of a nightmare
so to say
it is a land fit
for a dreamer
like me
i am sure
has got a line
to tow
away
and mirrors
to stow
away

guardian angel
03:56
|
|||
|
dear guardian angel,
sweet little angel, i want to hear your words
i can't see you, but i can hear you between the lines
and i am reading
i am reading
do you feel happiness?
and do you feel sad?
good or bad?
who are you, angel?
and are you stuck with me?
i'm sure glad to have you
you're my angel forever-to-be
and do you feel stuck with me?
'cause i know god don't give you
no say in who is to be
in need of saving
but you....
who are you angel?
i can't see
some say it is madness
and that that is plain to see
and it may not be madness to me
i know that they are not blind to see
that you are blind to me
