      Lyrics

      Time is never time at all

      You can never ever leave without leaving a piece of youth

      And our lives are forever changed

      We will never be the same

      The more you change the less you feel

      Believe, believe in me, believe

      That life can change, that you're not stuck in vain

      We're not the same, we're different tonight

      Tonight, so bright

      Tonight

      And you know you're never sure

      But you're sure you could be right

      If you held yourself up to the light

      And the embers never fade in your city by the lake

      The place where you were born

      Believe, believe in me, believe

      In the resolute urgency of now

      And if you believe there's not a tonight

      Tonight, so bright

      Tonight

      We'll crucify the insincere tonight

      We'll make things right, we'll feel it all tonight

      We'll find a way to offer up the night tonight

      The indescribable moments of your life tonight

      The impossible is possible tonight

      Believe in me as I believe in you, tonight

      Lyrics

      Shakedown 1979

      Cool kids never have the time

      On a live wire

      Right up off the street

      You and I should meet

      Junebug skipping like a stone

      With the headlights pointed at the dawn

      We were sure we'd never see an end to it all

      And I don't even care

      To shake these zipper blues

      And we don't know

      Just where our bones will rest

      To dust I guess

      Forgotten and absorbed

      Into the earth below

      Double cross the vacant and the bored

      They're not sure just what we have in store

      Morphine city slippin' dues

      Down to see

      That we don't even care

      As restless as we are

      We feel the pull

      In the land of a thousand guilts

      And poured cement

      Lamented and assured

      To the lights and towns below

      Faster than the speed of sound

      Faster than we thought we'd go

      Beneath the sound of hope

      Justine never knew the rules

      Hung down with the freaks and the ghouls

      No apologies ever need be made

      I know you better than you fake it

      To see that we don't even care

      To shake these zipper blues

      And we don't know

      Just where our bones will rest

      To dust I guess

      Forgotten and absorbed

      Into the earth below

      The street heats the urgency of now (written: sound)

      As you can see there's no one around

      Lyrics

      Cupid hath pulled back his sweetheart's bow

      To cast divine arrows into her soul

      To grab her attention swift and quick

      Or morrow the marrow of her bones be thick

      With turpentine kisses and mistaken blows

      See the devil may do as the devil may care

      He loves none sweeter as sweeter the dare

      Her mouth the mischief he doth seek

      Her heart the captive of which he speaks

      So note all ye lovers in love with the sound

      Your world be shattered with nary a note

      Of one cupids arrow under your coat

      And in the land of star crossed lovers

      And barren hearted wanderers

      Forever lost in forsaken missives and satan's pull

      We seek the unseekable and we speak the unspeakable

      Our hopes dead gathering dust to dust

      In faith, in compassion, and in love

      Lyrics

      Speak to me in a language I can hear

      Humour me before I have to go

      Deep in thought I forgive everyone

      As the cluttered streets greet me once again

      I know I can't be late, supper's waiting on the table

      Tomorrow's just an excuse away

      So I pull my collar up and face the cold, on my own

      The earth laughs beneath my heavy feet

      At the blasphemy in my old jangly walk

      Steeple guide me to my heart and home

      The sun is out and up and down again

      I know I'll make it, love can last forever

      Graceful swans of never topple to the earth

      And you can make it last, forever you

      You can make it last, forever you

      And for a moment I lose myself

      Wrapped up in the pleasures of the world

      I've journeyed here and there and back again

      But in the same old haunts I still find my friends

      Mysteries not ready to reveal

      Sympathies I'm ready to return

      I'll make the effort, love can last forever

      Graceful swans of never topple to the earth

      Tomorrow's just an excuse

      And you can make it last, forever you

      You can make it last, forever you

      Lyrics

      Take me down, to the underground

      Won't you take me down, to the underground

      Why oh why, there is no light

      And if I can't sleep, can you hold my life

      And all I see is you

      Take my hand, I lost where I began

      In my heart I know all of my faults

      Will you help me understand

      And I believe in you

      You're the other half of me

      Soothe and heal...

      When you sleep, when you dream,

      I'll be there if you need me, whenever I hear you sing...

      There is a sun, it'll come, the sun, I hear them call me down

      I held you once, a love that once, and life had just begun

      And you're all I see...

      And trumpets blew, and angels flew on the other side

      And you're all I see, and you're all I'll need

      There's a love that god puts in your heart

      Lyrics

      The world is a vampire, sent to drain

      Secret destroyers, hold you up to the flames

      And what do I get, for my pain

      Betrayed desires, and a piece of the game

      Even though I know-i suppose I'll show

      All my cool and cold-like old job

      Despite all my rage I am still just a rat in a cage

      Then someone will say what is lost can never be saved

      Despite all my rage I am still just a rat in a cage

      Now I'm naked, nothing but an animal

      But can you fake it, for just one more show

      And what do you want, I want to change

      And what have you got

      When you feel the same

      Even though I know-i suppose I'll show

      All my cool and cold-like old job

      Despite all my rage I am still just a rat in a cage

      Then someone will say what is lost can never be saved

      Despite all my rage I am still just a rat in a cage

      Tell me I'm the only one

      Tell me there's no other one

      Jesus was an only son

      Tell me I'm the chosen one

      Jesus was an only son for you

      Despite all my rage I am still just a rat in a cage

      And I still believe that I cannot be saved

      Lyrics

      Ten times removed

      I forget about where it all began

      Bastard son of a bastard son of

      A wild eyed child of the sun

      And right as rain, I'm not the same but

      I feel the same, I feel nothing

      Holding back the fool again

      Holding back the fool pretends

      I forget to forget nothing is important

      Holding back the fool again

      I sensed my loss

      Before I even learned to talk

      And I remember my birthdays

      Empty party afternoons won't come back

      Holding back the fool again

      Holding back the fool pretends

      I forget to forget nothing is important

      Holding back the fool again

      I forget to forget me

      I forget to forget you see

      Nothing is important to me

      I knew my loss

      Before I even learned to speak

      And all along, I knew it was wrong

      But I played along, with my birthday song

      Holding back the fool again

      Holding back the fool pretends

      I forget to forget nothing is important

      Holding back the fool again

      Lyrics

      I fear that I am ordinary, just like everyone

      To lie here and die among the sorrows

      Adrift among the days

      For everything I ever said

      And everything I've ever done is gone and dead

      As all things must surely have to end

      And great loves will one day have to part

      I know that I am meant for this world

      My life has been extraordinary

      Blessed and cursed and won

      Time heals but I'm forever broken

      By and by the way...

      Have you ever heard the words

      I'm singing in these song?

      It's for the girl I've loved all along

      Can a taste of love be so wrong

      As all things must surely have to end

      And great loves will one day have to part

      I know that I am meant for this world

      And in my mind as I was floating

      Far above the clouds

      Some children laughed I'd fall for certain

      For thinking that I'd last forever

      But I knew exactly where I was

      And I knew the meaning of it all

      And I knew the the distance to the sun

      And I knew the echo that is love

      And I knew the secrets in your spires

      And I knew the emptiness of youth

      And I knew the solitude of heart

      And I knew the murmurs of the soul

      And the world is drawn into your hands

      And the world is etched upon your heart

      And the world so hard to understand

      Is world you can't live without

      And I knew the silence of the world
