      Lyrics

      I spin off and lose my head

      Throwing stray a spark instead

      Gather strength down in my heel

      And dig it in the world I peel

      Way down deep within my heart

      Lies a soul that’s torn apart

      Tell me, tell me what your after

      I just want to get there faster

      I don’t live – I inhale

      I don’t give – I unveil

      Don’t want to live in your misery

      I don’t live – I inhale

      Sprinkle all my kisses on your head

      Stars full of wishes fill our beds

      She said, “I’m dead”

      All this pain smothers me

      Like a bomb that you can’t see

      Tell me, tell me what your after

      I just want to get there faster

      I don’t live – I inhale

      I don’t give – I unveil

      I don’t live – I inhale

      I don’t live

      Lyrics

      Planned a show
      Trees and balloons
      Ice cream snow
      See you in June
      Could have known
      I would reveal
      Should have known
      I would conceal your way
      She knows
      And she knows, she knows, she knows
      And she knows, she knows, she knows
      How’s it she knows, she knows, she knows
      And she knows, she knows
      Colors show
      After the moon
      I should go
      See you in June
      Your way
      And she knows
      And she knows, she knows, she knows
      And she knows, she knows, she knows
      How’s it she knows, she knows, she knows
      And she knows, she knows
      Open your eyes to these mustered lines
      Open your eyes to these mustered lines
      The way
      And she knows
      And she knows, she knows, she knows
      And she knows, she knows, she knows
      How’s it she knows, she knows, she knows
      And she knows, she knows, she knows

      Lyrics

      No matter where you are

      I can still hear you when you drown

      You've traveled very far

      Just to see you I'll come around

      When I'm down

      All of those yesterdays

      Coming around

      No matter where you are

      I can still hear you when you dream (on some versions, "scream")

      You traveled very far

      You traveled far, like a star

      And you are

      All of those yesterdays

      Coming around

      Is it something someone said?

      Was it something someone said?

      Yesterday the sky was you

      And I still feel the same

      Nothing left for me to do

      And I still feel the same

      I wish, I wish I could fly

      I wish, I wish I could lie

      I will, I will try

      I will, I will

      Goodbye

      Lyrics

      Freak out
      And give in
      Doesn’t matter what you believe in
      Stay cool
      And be somebody’s fool this year
      ‘Cause they know
      Who is righteous, What is bold
      So I’m told
      Who wants honey
      As long as there’s some money
      Who wants that honey?
      Hipsters unite
      Come align for the big fight to rock for you
      But beware
      All those angels with their wings glued on
      ‘Cause deep down
      We are frightened and we’re scared
      If you don’t stare
      Who wants honey
      As long as there’s some money
      Who wants that honey?
      Let me out
      Let me out
      Let me out
      Let me out
      Tell me all of your secrets
      Cannot help but believe this is true
      Tell me all of your secrets
      I know, I know, I know,
      Should have listened when I was told
      Who wants honey
      As long as there is some money
      Who wants that honey?
      Let me out
      Let me out
      Let me out
      Let me out

      Lyrics

      Today is the greatest
      Day I’ve ever known
      Can’t live for tomorrow,
      Tomorrow’s much too long
      I’ll burn my eyes out
      Before I get out
      I wanted more
      Than life could ever grant me
      Bored by the chore
      Of saving face
      Today is the greatest
      Day I’ve ever known
      Can’t wait for tomorrow
      I might not have that long
      I’ll tear my heart out
      Before I get out
      Pink ribbon scars
      That never forget
      I tried so hard
      To cleanse these regrets
      My angel wings
      Were bruised and restrained
      My belly stings
      Today is
      Today is
      Today is
      The greatest day
      I want to turn you on
      I want to turn you on
      I want to turn you on
      I want to turn you
      Today is the greatest
      Today is the greatest day
      Today is the greatest day
      That I have ever really known

      Lyrics

      Disarm you with a smile
      And cut you like you want me to
      Cut that little child
      Inside of me and such a part of you
      Ooh, the years burn
      I used to be a little boy
      So old in my shoes
      And what I choose is my choice
      What’s a boy supposed to do?
      The killer in me is the killer in you
      My love
      I send this smile over to you
      Disarm you with a smile
      And leave you like they left me here
      To wither in denial
      The bitterness of one who’s left alone
      Ooh, the years burn
      Ooh, the years burn, burn, burn
      I used to be a little boy
      So old in my shoes
      And what I choose is my voice
      What’s a boy supposed to do?
      The killer in me is the killer in you
      My love
      I send this smile over to you
      The killer in me is the killer in you
      Send this smile over to you
      The killer in me is the killer in you
      Send this smile over to you
      The killer in me is the killer in you
      Send this smile over to you

      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

      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

      My reflection, dirty mirror

      There’s no connection to myself

      I’m your lover, I’m your zero

      I’m the face in your dreams of glass

      So save your prayers

      For when we’re really gonna need ’em

      Throw out your cares and fly

      Wanna go for a ride?

      She’s the one for me

      She’s all I really need

      Cause she’s the one for me

      Emptiness is loneliness, and loneliness is cleanliness

      And cleanliness is godliness, and god is empty just like me

      Intoxicated with the madness, I’m in love with my sadness

      Bullshit fakers, enchanted kingdoms

      The fashion victims chew their charcoal teeth

      I never let on, that I was on a sinking ship

      I never let on that I was down

      You blame yourself, for what you can’t ignore

      You blame yourself for wanting more

      She’s the one for me

      She’s all I really need

      She’s the one for me

      She’s my one and only

      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

      I lie, I wait
      I stop, I hesitate
      I am, I breathe
      I meant, I think of me
      Is it any wonder I can’t sleep?
      All I have is all you gave to me
      Is it any wonder I found peace through you?
      Turn to the gates of heaven, to myself be damned
      Turn away from light
      It’s not enough, just a touch
      It’s not enough
      I taste, I love
      I come, I bleed enough
      I hate, I’m not
      I was, I want too much
      Is it any wonder I can’t sleep?
      All I have is all you gave to me
      Is it any wonder I found peace through you?
      Turn to the gates of heaven, to myself be damned
      Turn away from light
      It’s not enough, just a touch
      It’s not enough, just a touch
      It’s not enough, just a touch
      It’s not enough, just a touch
      It’s not enough, just a touch
      It’s not enough, just a touch

      I know

      We’re just like old friends

      We just can’t pretend

      That lovers make amends

      We are

      Reasons so unreal

      We can’t help but feel

      That something has been lost

      But please

      You know you’re just like me

      Next time

      I promise we’ll be perfect

      Perfect

      Perfect

      Strangers down the line

      Lovers out of time

      Memories unwind

      So far I still know who you are

      But now I wonder who I was

      Angel

      You know it’s not the end

      We’ll always be good friends

      But the letters have been sent on

      So please

      You always were so free

      You’ll see

      I promise we’ll be perfect

      Perfect

      Perfect

      Strangers when we meet

      Strangers on the street

      Lovers while we sleep

      Perfect

      You know this has to be

      We always were so free

      We promised that we’d be

      Perfect

      You know I’m, you know I’m not dead

      You know I’m not dead

      Now you know where I’ve been

      As you sleep, torn I am

      Weighted down patiently

      Born of love

      You know I’m, you know I’m not dead

      I’m just living in my head

      Forever waiting on the ways of your desire

      You always find a way

      And through it all, into us all you move

      Forgotten touch

      Forbidden thought

      We can never have enough

      You know I’m not dead

      You know I’m, you know I’m not dead

      You know I’m not dead

      Found below, the creatures scream

      Stranglehold, a god machine

      Begin to tear us out

      What is hell

      You know I’m, you know I’m not dead

      I’m just the tears inside your head

      Forever waiting on the ways of your desire

      You always find a way

      And through it all, into us all you move

      Forgotten touch

      Forbidden thought

      We can never have enough

      You know I’m not dead

      We all want to hold in the everlasting gaze

      Enchanted in the rapture of his sentimental sway

      But underneath the wheels lie the skulls of every cog

      The fickle fascination of an everlasting god

      You know I’m not dead

      I’m just living in my head

      Forever waiting

      Forever waiting a cruel death

      You know I’m not dead

      I’m just living for myself

      Forever waiting

      You know I’m not dead

      You know I’m not dead

      You know I’m not dead

      You know I’m not dead

      You and me

      Meant to be

      Immutable

      Impossible

      It’s destiny

      Pure lunacy

      Incalculable

      Inseparable

      And for the last time

      You’re everything that I want and asked for

      You’re all that I dream

      Who wouldn’t be the one you love

      Who wouldn’t stand inside your love

      Protected and the lover of

      A pure soul

      And beautiful

      You

      Don’t understand

      Don’t feel me now

      I will breath

      For the both of us

      Travel the world

      Traverse the skies

      Your home is here

      Within my heart

      And for the first time

      I feel as though I am reborn in my mind

      Recast as child and mystic sage

      Who wouldn’t be the one you love

      Who wouldn’t stand inside your love

      For the first time

      I’m telling how much I need and bleed for

      Your every move and waking sound in my time

      I’ll wrap my wrap my wire around your heart

      And your mind

      You’re mine forever now

      Who wouldn’t be the one you love and live for

      Who wouldn’t stand inside your love and die for

      Who wouldn’t be the one you love

      On a memphis train

      Like you said

      It’s down in the heat and the summer rain of

      The automatic gauze of your memories

      Down in the sleep at the airplane races

      Try to hold on

      To this heart

      A little bit longer

      Try to hold on

      To this love

      Aloud

      Try to hold on

      For this heart’s

      A little bit colder

      Try to hold on

      To this love

      Paperback scrawl your hidden poem

      Written around the dried out flowers

      Here we are still trading places

      To try to hold on

      Pop tart

      Can you envision

      A free world

      Of clear division

      For too long

      They held us under

      But I know

      We’re getting over

      In detroit

      With the nashville tears

      Like you said

      It’s down in the heat with the broken numbers

      Down in the gaze of solemnity

      Down in the way you held together

      To try to hold on

      To this heart

      A little bit closer

      Try to hold on

      To this love

      Aloud

      Try to hold on

      For this heart’s

      A little bit older

      Try to hold on

      To this love

      Aloud

      And we are still alive

      Try to hold on

      And we have survived

      Try to hold on

      And no one should deny

      We try to hold on

      To the pulse of a feedback current

      Into the flow of the cryptic movement

      Slapback kills the ancient remnants

      That try to hold on

      Try to hold on

      To this heart

      Alive

      Try to hold on

      To this love

      Aloud

      Try to hold on

      And we are still alive

      Try to hold on

      And we have survived

      Try to hold on

      Pop tart

      You never listen

      Skinned knees

      Try to hold on

      Stop start

      What’s our mission

      Skinned knees

      Lyrics

      Fall into the century on a supersonic cross

      Blessed she in aching silence, eternal loss

      Calling out I won’t surrender a locket of her hair

      Sympathize her pious pleasures, go down the stairs

      Into the dark again

      To feel alive again, and wait for

      Real love

      Or is it me you’re after

      Is it time

      ‘Cause it’s now or never

      Real love

      Real love forever

      Real love

      Born of the ball and chain

      Into a world sustained with sorrow

      Real love

      A real touch we speak in

      Is it ours

      Or is it what we’re seekin’

      Real love

      In the eyes, behold and you’ll find the 21st century

      You detonate her will and her widowed speech

      Buried in the backyard shadow, the rusty coffee tin

      That held her mother’s first kiss in a nameless dream

      Fall down the stairs again

      To feel alive against tomorrow

      Real love

      Or is it me you’re after

      Is it time

      ‘Cause it’s now or never

      Real love

      Real love forever

      Is it love

      Or just yours to treasure

      Real love

      Real love

      Real love

      We never listen

      Real love will listen

      And tell her of a fortune

      Real love is riches

      Scratch through the changes

      Real love is nameless

      So tired and hopeless

      Real love is painless

      Nobody mentions

      We ever move to collect

      The solar questions

      Demon scorn should not relax

      The laws of gravity

      Real love

      Lyrics

      Should I know all we’re missing

      What’s to stop what they’re missing

      To feel love, to be in love

      All around

      Anyone can hold a promise

      Not everyone can feel honored

      To be in love, to feel love

      All around

      Turn me on, hear me speak

      Let me be what I need

      You’re enough for me

      Many times while you sleep

      I’m dreaming of what to keep

      To know your wish, hold it true

      To slay the things that trouble you

      Turn me on, out of reach

      Listen here, feel me

      Just believe, just believe

      You’ll see

      To feel love, to be in love

      All around

      Hold the truth if you want it

      If you don’t, I won’t flaunt it

      To feel love, to be in love

      All around

      When you’re young you can promise

      Anything that you wanted

      To be in love, to feel love all around

      Turn me on, let me speak

      From my heart, I receive

      Plain happiness, just happiness

      You and me

      To feel love, to be in love

      All around

      To be in love, to feel love

      All around

      To feel love, to be in love

      All around

      To be in love, to feel love

      Around

      I know your wish, I hold it true

      (Feel love around)

      To hide the things that trouble you

      (Feel love around)

      Turn me on out of reach

      (Feel love around)

      Let me speak all my peace

      (Feel love around)

      Just believe what you keep

      (Feel love around)

      You’ll never need to hurry me

      (Feel love around)

      To be in love, to feel love

      All around

      To feel love, to be in love

      All around

      To be in love, to feel love

      All around

      To feel love, to be in love

      All around

      To be in love, to feel love

      Lyrics

      It’s in blood

      I suppose

      Breaking jars

      I’m no good

      As the prodigal son

      And I know that you’re mesmerized

      You had a vision, made these laws

      And sanitized, are we above desires

      I miss him so

      You are so fucked

      It has begun

      Revolution crawls

      All over you

      I was listening

      You light up the sky

      And scrape out your skull

      Your lovely face

      Will never be claimed thrice

      And we’re so unlikely to

      Upon my wrists I bear the cross

      My losses mount as I climb across the home

      Of my own soul

      I’ll claim my prize

      I don’t exist

      I am divine

      A ghost with eyes

      (Billy: yeah, vietnam.)

      Lyrics

      Love is a sentimental heart

      Life is a sentimental way

      Spy the fragile heart so cursed

      As he walks across this earth

      I'm disconnected by your smile

      Disconnect a million miles

      And what you promised me

      I hope will set you free

      I'm disconnected by your smile

      And all I gave to you is lost

      And all you took from me is lost

      Black wings carry me so high

      Up to meet you in the sky

      I'm disconnected by your smile

      Disconnect a million miles

      And what you promised me

      I hope will set you free

      I'm disconnected by your smile

      Wishing you were real to me

      Wishing I could make believe

      I'll take my secrets to the grave

      Safely held beneath the waves

      Always knew I couldn't save

      Always knew I couldn't save you

      Midnight people

      Rushing for a downtown train

      Watching and wasting away

      Their hearts beat free

      Cool frequency

      And I don’t know what it is

      I’m gonna run the slow dawn

      Seeking sigh, oh so faint

      I’m gonna run the slow dawn awake

      It’s blessed undone

      The songbirds all around

      And I’m not sure what it is

      But I’m sure that I could give it

      Awake the slow dawn

      Slow dawn moves by my side

      Teach your silent sleep

      Slow dawn

      The midnight people

      Washing down here, wasting way

      They’re gonna run the slow dawn awake

      The slow dawn awake

      The slow dawn awake

      We’re so young

      And we’re so dumb

      With our registered calculations

      And if you dare

      And should I care

      I could destroy you

      And take you there

      As the spitfires begin their descent

      And tragic romantic ascent

      My love is one hundred percent

      Come back to me, my mistake

      Come back to me, my mistake

      Come back to me, my mistake

      Mistake, it was all my mistake

      So suck me through

      Your saliva screws

      I can’t help myself if I don’t know

      The flaws in you

      That were equal to

      The mysteries I’ve almost knew

      And I’ve said this so many, many times

      Can’t help you out of your mind

      So please don’t judge me unkind

      Come back to me, my mistake

      Come back to me, my mistake

      Come back to me, my mistake

      And if you pretend

      Please try to offend everyone

      We share the sea monkey disease

      So give me my greatful little piece

      And do what you want as you please

      Come back to me, my mistake

      Come back to me, my mistake

      Come back to me, my mistake

      The strangest man won’t let you breathe
      Rocking on you in a movie scene
      His words fill your mouth
      His guests bleed sick
      Devoid of touch
      He lets out to the streets where you were raised
      Sittin’ home waiting for the coming age
      You had to wait your turn
      You had to wait your turn
      Wake up early, wash up late
      Satellites connect you to your hate
      Your patience grows but your skin is thin
      The pager signals they’re coming in
      Through the hole in the wall
      You left the hole in the wall
      Here’s to the atom bomb
      May everyone find a way to get on
      A little piece of heaven is all you seek
      In the same old re-run week after week
      Their faces make you want to kill
      The little piece of heaven singin’ on the windowsill
      No lights can turn you on
      Pixelate the night
      Reading the words
      Of your eyes on the streets where you were born
      Sittin’ home waiting for the coming dawn
      Near the hole in the wall
      You left a hole in the wall

      Still a boy perhaps

      Simple silent humble human being

      Which is the way that’s clear

      Where do we go from here

      Which is the way that’s clear

      Still lookin’ for that blue jean baby queen

      Prettiest girl I’ve never seen

      See her die on my movie screens every day

      Rock on

      Rock on

      Rock on

      Rock on

      And the cradle will rock

      Yes, the cradle, the cradle will rock

      I said rock on

      Rock on

      Everybody wants some

      I want some too

      Everybody wants some

      Hey how about you

      I said rock on

      Rock on

      Rock on

      Rock on

      Rock on

      Rock on

      Hey kids, rock and roll

      We’re gonna rock on, rock on

      To your song

      Hey kids, rock and roll

      We’re gonna rock on

      Rock on

      We’re gonna rock on, rock on, rock on

      Lyrics

      Born to please, every simple need

      I stand alone in my thoughts indeed

      Hate you

      For ever making me

      I’m in you, I’m your anything

      And I- want you

      And I- need you

      And all you are is brand new

      And I- need you

      Come to me, let me hold you still

      I’m so tired, just as tired as you

      Take me for anyone but me

      All that you feel is never true

      And I- want you

      And I- need you

      And all you are is brand new

      And I- need you

      When you say that you are

      Forever my star

      Could never let you go, no, no

      And never let you know

      Let roar these fears

      To the whore of my tears

      Pure as a lie, I pour to your eyes

      Suck you like the sap from a tree

      Honey from the dew, from the bumblebees, yeah yeah

      And I- want you

      And I- need you

      And all you are is brand new

      And I- need you

      When you say that you are

      Forever my star

      Could never let you go, no, no

      Never let you know

      And I- want you

      And I- need you

      And all you are is brand new

      And I- need you

      Lyrics

      And if I fall into you all

      Will my rain cease and dissolve

      Some come to harm, others to grace

      So let my friends fly under these wings

      We’re giving it up to the sun

      We’re giving it up to the moon

      We’re giving it up to the earth

      Giving it up from our room

      Know when there’s nowhere to run

      Know when there’s not much to lose

      Sometimes it seems so long

      Since you had a chance to refuse

      We built a fire

      Winterlong

      Transform to iron

      Winterlong

      I was the first one

      I was the last one to be strong

      And if I fall into you all

      Will the silence shatter and stall

      Some feel movement, others stand still

      So let the moment become my will

      We’re giving it up to the sun

      We’re giving it up to the moon

      We’re giving it up to the earth

      Giving it up from our rooms

      Know when there’s nowhere to run

      Know when there’s not much to lose

      So why does it take so long

      To find out who is who

      We built a fire

      Winterlong

      Transform to iron

      Winterlong

      I was the first one

      I was the last one to be strong

      We’re giving it up to the sun

      Giving it up to the moon

      We’re giving it up the the earth

      Giving it up from your room

      We’re giving it up to the sun

      Giving it up to the moon

      Lyrics

      The words flow

      Decisions made

      Idea’s mine

      But the inspiration not

      Dreams of hangers-on

      Dreams of getting well

      Spells of esmeralda

      Amarose fortold

      Splinters in the eye

      Sentiments remain

      Bones are never asked

      Where are we going to

      It was never up to me

      And yet I pushed until it broke

      I love the open road

      And all that it suggests

      Wheelwagon dust

      Weeds and infidelities

      And always swore our love

      Never questioned why

      In a wooden house

      Immovable and silent

      And drinking strawberry wine

      Forever lost in town

      And through the sleeping streets

      Nightbound and heavy

      Wheels in a spoke

      Just a spoken foreign sound

      Know my gates are high

      My friends even higher

      Forgotten in my mind

      Yet the scars still lingering

      Cloud the blue skies

      I’m jealous of you birds

      Was the only truth

      In a world full of words

      Hear the prairie sound

      In a friend called neil

      The heart is pointed down

      But my spirit pointed up

      His voice the siren

      Of greek mythology

      I pause with my pen

      I begin to defend

      Every action taken

      Every moment sealed

      When I was quick

      It coursed through open veins

      The will to live

      The urgency to move

      Behind a panel door

      Sealing cherry stain

      I played my guitar

      And lived those lonesome notes

      Like a dog that’s down

      In a corner just aside

      Waiting to be called

      Waiting to be yours

      Ghosts of a machine

      Without purpose or will

      I’ll often speak of you

      But the you was always me

      ‘Cause when I speak of me

      It’s me I ask of you

      So let there be no truth

      Just trickery in rhymes

      Time the only thing

      Waiting still is death

      I hope for resolution

      Pray one defining moment

      Pause without restraint

      Barren without child

      A child is who I was

      A child is who I’ll die

      A child is who I’ll die

      Soot in my hair

      And stars in my hands

      Soot in my hair

      And stars in my hands

      Soot in my hair

      And stars in my hands

      Lyrics

      The sun has blessed
      The rays are gone
      And all the kids have left their tears and gone home
      Sweet 17, sour 29
      And I can’t explain myself
      What I’d hoped to find
      You were all so kind
      When I was near
      And if you’re still feeling down
      Then maybe you need me around
      To love and hold you
      Don’t say I hadn’t told you so
      Maybe you need me around
      I had no luck
      I had no shame
      I had no cause, just 17 days of rain
      And you in my eyes
      Just one more song to slay this earth
      And I can’t explain myself just what it’s worth
      It was all I had, but not all I’d need
      And I can’t escape the fact that I still bleed
      And if you’re still feeling down
      And if this seems way too loud
      Then maybe you need me around
      I had no voice
      I had no drive
      I had no choice
      I’ve done my time
      I had myself
      Had my band
      I had my love
      Had no hand in watching it all fall apart
      And if you’re still feeling down
      Then maybe you need me around
      To lift and scold you
      To send you crashing all right now
      Maybe you need me around
