The rain falls on the valley
always beating the mud
the death tolls a Talley
written in blood
show me our freedom
i'll show you it's dead
i can hear a clear hum
but its all in my head
(Chorus)
And i ask you my friend
Is this just life, or is it the end
outside the gates of the graveyard
are standing the dead
men are locked in the jailyards
women jailed in thier heads
Show me a good mother
i'll show you ten murders
life's gift only a bother
its an it not a her
(chorus)
Sence it is stacked
opion is sacred
choice is a fact
fact is what you make of it
Show me a load fool
ill show you his sheep
stupidity is a rule
and i cannot sleep
Chorus
The snow it is black
and its always winter
there is no way back
if you ever get here
Show me a soldier
i'll show you his master
saying do what you told here
then condems them after
chorus
-------------------------------------
It is All out of wack
And From the back
Words crack
Someones calling
I'm in the black
By the railroad track
I don't lack
Still i'm falling
There Aint no doubt
That it is a shout
Brings about
Baby's balling
All along my route
No seeds sprout
There's drought
I am falling
Empty dawn
Curtains drawn
But i go on
with recalling
my little fawn
a fair white swan
now you are your gone
left me falling
a mother's son
for each one
of midnights sun
gets a mauling
i am undone
its not much fun
with a quaker gun
put me falling
wear a gold crown
but ropes surround
that leave me bound
it's appalling
i'm inbound
at the speed of sound
don't fear the ground
just the falling
--------------------------------
A life of sin, sin and misery
I mistreat them so they mistreat me
[Chorus]
A man of nothing nothing begets
A man of nothing has nothing but regrets
But a man of nothing is the easiest to forget.
A man of straw I have no word
If it's from me it's a lie you've heard
chorus
No substance lost my name
Look right through me like cellophane
chorus
Don't get upset at my sad song
It is only me that's done me wrong
chorus
Some people die then they fade away
I am still alive and already fading today
chorus
I am a nothing man nobody can save
Just leave me alone to find my grave.
chorus
I could disappear one dark December
I tell you nothing's harder than nothing to remember.
Chorus
On a tiered September I did emerge
For the beginning an eternal scourge
chorus
-----------------------------------------
Lying on the bed where we have laid
Memories of her can't make them fade
For every passion there's price paid
She said we'd work it out somehow
but she left me she's gone now
to forget my mind won't allow
(chorus)
All the things that we said
lying here on this bed
I'm trying to forget her
Trying to remember,
Memories fill my head
Lying here on my bed
trying to forget her
Trying to remember
Verse 2
Her body pink, her cheeks so red,
She was my substance, on her I fed
Now she's left me my hearts gone dead
Her fair face, always haunting me
its in my mind, my memory
a torment from which i must break free
corus
verse 3
the curves of her body, a tranquil sea
her kiss warmed nights so pleasantly
now thoughts of her bring only misery
An ocean of troubles that I'm sailing
Sinking slowly, limbs wildly flailing
Want to forget but i'm failing
Verse 4
Her, by my side I was walking tall,
But pride comes before every fall
#Now i cant bring myself to crawl#
I loved her, i'm sure it was true
Her soft hands and her eyes clear blue
Now I am so hung up can't start even anew
---------------------------------------------------------
Hazel eyes brown hair too
But you were as sharp as a shrew.
To fall in love with you
No sense in this can I construe
But simply answer me what can I do.
(chorus)
You pick me up and mess me around
Throw me to the hard grey ground
Save me on your own rebound
Hold me till I'm safe and sound
Then fit me with a thorny crown
Yea, you raise me up, just, just to knock me down
Sometimes with her I feel so free
It is the hope that causes my misery
It is clear to everyone that she
Simply is no good for me
But I guess I am too blind to see
Chorus
Thought that we perfectly belong
How stupid was I to be so wrong
Like her dog I'm strung along
Every hurt I call our swan song
But still I just let her carry on
(Chorus)
Our love is like some senseless scrawl
Written on a backstreet wall
I love her why I can't recall
The only reason she loves me at all
Is cause when I am down I've no place to fall
(Chorus)
-------------------------------------
A cafe bar a crowed place
So i sat right next to a pretty face
Said i had to confide in her
I'd never seen a beauty like her
Before
She smiled at me so pleasantly
So i asked her what about me
(Chorus)
And she Said
Your cuter than dave and dan and Daniel
And dermiad who looks like a cocer spaniel
Not as funny as kent kurt or kay
But then again those guys were gay
Bruce and bob and bill and baker
Philosified too much of their maker
Oh and phil and Philip and phoniex too
Still i must have missed a few
There was james and john joe and jerimie
Stoped her there next time lie to me
Dropped her home from our first date
Her front pourch it was getting late
We kissed in the pouring rain
Things would never be the same
Again
She tasted of wild cherry
So i asked her what about me
(Chorus)
Going out six month now
Never had even one row
Had bought her every single thing
So i got her awedding ring
for her hand
went down on my bended knee
i'll marry you what about me
and she said....
Yea(repeated with tune of chorus)
Because
Your cuter than dave and dan and Daniel
And dermiad who looks like a cocer spaniel
funnier than kent kurt or kay
we all know those guys were gay
better than Bruce and bob and bill and baker
who all Philosified too much of their maker
better than phil and Philip and phoniex too
and all the other unhappy few
like james and john joe and jerimie
Stoped her there i hope you didn't lie to me
-------------------------------------
Man above his station
I have been from rivers' spring to waters edge,
I have tried so hard a new path to fledge,
Heard it said but I don't know,
only dead fish follow the flow
Chorus
Gotta get out of this situation but I'm beneath a man above his station
(guitar riff)
Telling you I need a vacation from beneath this man above his station,
Promoted to his incapability
lacking any nobility
Lick up to those who get him there
And sneers at those below his airs
Chorus
Walks with notes in his hands
Pretending to have some sort of plan
Reads “crime and punishmentâ€
Sips coffee, talks of government
Chorus
Smiles and grins and hisses too
One face for me and another for you
Says he knows what im about
Great, ‘cause I cant figure it out
Chorus
Does what he can to get there faster
Wants the control of a master
Still a puppet in somebody's hand
But he pulls strings just because he can
Chorus
Don't fear his presence when we meet
Just that id become him in the heat
At least when work is at an end
I can leave behind my fair-weather friend
Chorus x2
