I Can Fly Lyrics
2 ContributorsI Can Fly LyricsI can fly
I really can
Wave good-bye familiar land
Catch the wind
Make my climb
Breathin' in born again feelin fine
I can fly above distress
I can fly to heaven no less
Leave the earth forget the time light as air
I don't care feelin fine
Don't say I'm crazy don't say I'm out of my head
I might be crazy but one thing's for certain one thing's for sure
I can fly above the sea I can fly hey look at me
Without a net leave it behind
Feelin good feelin free feelin so fine
Don't say I'm crazy don't say I'm out of my head
I might be crazy but one thing's for certain one thing's for sure
My lofty purchase high above
I'm losing sight of you
I'm climbing up just like a kite T
He calm before the storm
Alright yeah
When all at once it dawned on me where I'm not supposed to be
Clouds are black the sky is red I'm where the angles fear to tread
I feel like I've lost my way
Down and down and down I go
I've lost all sense of my direction
This flaming spitfire flight has come undone
Grounding stages of rejection
I am not worthy to have even tried
Help me annihilate this foolish pride where Icarus died
Ahhh
I say the act of my contrition B
Be sure to bless all before I die
Save my seat in the smoking section
Cut me loose and say good-bye
Hey
I wake up on the doctors table
Where life and death are up for grabs
I'm comin I'm comin you better shoot me
Kill the pain and count the scabs
No no no get out of my black dream
Give me life give me life
I'll make a vow
I'll resist temptation
I promise here and now
You see it all started when I was younger
They said I was good
But I thought they said great
I crown myself the king of liars
I am what I have learned to hate
Desperate Times Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Why can't you see where we are going?
Why can't you see where we have been?
You tell me the pain is still growing, you tell me tell me who'll win
[Pre-Chorus]
I feel for you you know what I'm saying
But I've got to do what's right in my head
[Chorus]
I've got to ride, ride, rocket ride
Carry me quick to the one's who've cried
I'm a saint I'm a sinner but you decide
In desperate times
Sled, sled, rocket sled
Carry me quick to the one's who've bled
I'm a saint I'm a sinner and these are desperate times
[Verse 2]
I would give my soul to carry your burden
I would give my soul cause I know you still grieve oh yeah
Where will we go to hide from their blindness
Where will we go if we don't both believe
[Pre-Chorus]
Bad blood rains down we've got to take cover
Cold blood rains down who can find any peace
[Chorus]
I've got to ride, ride, rocket ride
Carry me quick to the one's who've cried
I'm a saint I'm a sinner but you decide
In desperate times, okay
Sled, sled, rocket sled
Carry me quick to the one's who've bled
I'm a saint I'm a sinner and these are desperate times
[Instrumental Break]
[Drum Solo]
[Chorus]
I've got to ride, ride, rocket ride (I’ve got to rise, I’ve got to ride)
Carry me quick to the one's who've cried
I'm a saint I'm a sinner but you decide
In desperate times, oh yeah
Sled, sled, rocket sled
Carry me quick to the one's who've bled
I'm a saint I'm a sinner and these are desperate times
[Chorus]
Yeah
Ride. ride, rocket ride
Carry me quick to the one's who've cried
I'm a saint I'm a sinner but you decide
In desperate times
Sled, sled, rocket sled
Carry me quick to the one's who've bled
I'm a saint I'm a sinner and these are desperate times
[Outro]
Yeahhh yeah yeah yeah
Yeahhh yeah yeah yeah
Yeahhh yeah yeah yeah
Yeahhh yeah yeah yeah
Yeahhh yeah yeah yeah
Yeahhh yeah yeah yeah
Yeahhh yeah yeah yeah
Yeahhh yeah yeah yeah…
Hope Once Again Lyrics
3 ContributorsHope Once Again LyricsThe flower dies the camera never lies fire baptizes
The truth is light right or wrong is never black or white
We all wear disguises
If a picture could talk we would all look away
There'd be too many voices (too many voices)
Rain come on and wash away this hot city skin
Pictures and memories and hope once again
Once again
Hope once again
So many times I see you in my mind when I'm not trying to
I see a trellis gate and I run like a child who's late
Whose friends are waiting for him
Well I never stopped to realize what was passing me by
But love has a texture (love has a texture)
Catch a glimpse a reflection
Of what would should or could have been
Pictures and memories and hope once again
Once again
Once again
Hope once again
I wonder if we know the future is now
I wonder if we know
I wonder if we know the future is here
Here
Gimme hope
Hope once again
Gimme hope
Hope once again
Gimme hope
Hope once again
We need hope once again
Gimme hope
Hope once again
Gimme hope (Give me hope)
Hope once again
Ohhhh
Gimme hope
Hope once again
Black Fathom 4 Lyrics
3 ContributorsBlack Fathom 4 LyricsWell it looks like it might rain but rain ain't what we need
Sunshine and a war machine I'm gettin ready for another stampede
Grease the gears with blood paint it black as night
Ride through the city like a Trojan horse
Convinced what you're doin's all right
Hold on 'till the river goes down the river goes to the sea
Hold on the river's comin' down on me
The killin' field has come to main street
Scatter guns in the liquor store
Rifled sinkhole graves in concrete it's out of hand
At black fathom 4
Yeah
Black fathom 4
Black fathom 4
Fallen leaves turn grey faces cold and worn
Memories of a better time swept away like a firestorm
Who can get it straight who can think it through
When every time the telephone rings
You think it's someone comin' after you
Hold on 'till the river goes down the river goes to the sea
Hold on the river's comin' down on me
Your mamma's shootin' Gallery wages
Your daddy don't give a damn no more
Keep these animals breakin' cages violent times
At black fathom 4
Black fathom 4
Black fathom 4
Woahhh!!!
Walk into my world where brave can get you dead
You get together and a fight breaks out
Someone didn't understand what you said
Walk into my world anger's in my soul
Quick money give me double trouble
Friends are doing hard time in the hole
Hold on 'till the river goes down the river goes to the sea
Hold on the river's comin' down on me
Children crying sniper thunder case the alleys and the corridors
Don't look back it ain't no wonder it's open season
Black fathom...
Black fathom 4
Black fathom 4
Black fathom 4
Yeah
Under the Knife Lyrics
[?] of sins
In a black dream courtroom where the trial never ends
I have come to determine a reasonable doubt
Where heaven and hell draw their boundary lines about
Now that I've waisted you now that I've tasted you
The white room had frost on the cold window pane
Your love had been lost my love was in vain
Sanctuary
Under the knife sharp and shiny key
Repair redeem resurrection yeah
Under the knife they'll cut you out of me
Maybe dreams can be larger than life under the knife
Yeah
Cynical splices stitch and install
Solder the filaments I feel nothing at all
Second wind secrets let them rise let them fall
I'll walk through your firestorm but never never crawl
The gambler lives the blood stain dries
It's time to forgive I open my eyes
Sanctuary
Under the knife sharp and shiny key
Repair redeem resurrection
Under the knife they'll cut you out of me
Maybe love's imitation is life under the knife
Under the knife sharp and shiny key
Repair redeem resurrection
Under the knife they'll cut you out of me
Maybe dreams can be larger than life
Under the knife
Yeah
Need Lyrics
2 ContributorsNeed LyricsI lost you a long time ago I tossed our love as far as I could throw
I can't help feelin tentative and blind
I only wish that you could read my mind
I need to pitch it all into the wind
I need to face a wall that's cavin' in
I need to fall fall again I do I need you
Can friends be lovers can lovers still be friends
What about the story when there ain't no happy end
Look around look around and tell me
What am I supposed to do
To say goodby'd be a big mistake after
All that we've been through
I need to pitch it all into the wind
I need to face a wall that's cavin' in
I need to fall fall again I do I need you
I need you
Some familiar face some familiar song
But those times have come and gone
Sometimes I feel like my memories are
Only there to let me know
That bein' lonely is so damn slow
It's like a deep dark fever dream
I get surges I take a midnight drive
I'm goin' nowhere I don't care when I arrive
I got questions the kind that got no clues
I think I find the answer on the road that lead to you
I need to pitch it all into the wind
I need to face a wall that's cavin' in
I need to fall fall again I do I need you
I need to pitch it all into the wind
I need to face a wall that's cavin' in
I need to fall fall I do I need you
I need to pitch it all into the wind
I need to face a wall that's cavin' in
I need to fall fall again I do I need you
Freaks of Nature Lyrics
3 ContributorsFreaks of Nature LyricsFreak of nature fact or fright
Puts up with pain puts up with spite
Scarred up shoes have lost their sheen
It looks like better days they've seen
Na na na na na na na na na na
Chameleon man naive tycoon
Will eat the poor with silver spoon
He'll jest and jeer through the looking glass
But nest right near the upper class
Na na na na na na na na na na
Who'll be the first one pointing at the simple man
Now I know I'm only lucky
Every freak of nature should know
How to run the whole freakin' show
Freak of nature'd rather be
No less a man than you or me
He'd rather look the other way
Choose to fight another day
Na na na na na na na na na na
I take things for granted turn the tables 'round
What if I was down
Every freak of nature should know
How to run the whole freakin' show
Too much goin' on runnin' out of time
And I don't understand it
Too much goin' on runnin' out of time
I don't understand it
Every freak of nature should know
How to run the whole freakin' show
Every freak of nature should know
Cold Grey Morning Lyrics
2 ContributorsCold Grey Morning LyricsCold grey morning without sunlight
Ghostly mist on the horizon
Empty visions of a world gone mad
Paints a picture so revealing
Through my window dark tomorrow
I can hear the sirens wailing
For the future we are holding on
As the ship of fools is sailing
Such a long time
Such a long time
We are waiting for a peace that's lasting
Reaching upward
Sliding downward
Looks like just another
Cold cold cold grey morning
Yeah
Hardly breathing
Hope is fading
It's the end of the beginning
Children playing
In the empty streets
It's a cold grey morning
Such a long time
Such a long time
We are waiting for a peace that's lasting
Reaching upward
Sliding downward
Looks like just another
Cold grey morning
Such a long time
Such a long time
We are waiting for a peace that's lasting
Reaching upward
Sliding downward
Looks like just another
Cold grey morning
Yeah
Such a long time
Such a long long time
Peace that's lasting
Reaching upward
Sliding downward
Looks like just another
Looks like just another
Cold grey morning
Peaceful and Warm Lyrics
2 ContributorsPeaceful and Warm LyricsI went driving through my old hometown
It was Thursday the bright sun on the horizon
I was surprised to see no one had burned it down
It seemed so peaceful and warm
Floods of memories came back to me
All the things we got away with when we were younger
And I felt kind of like a refugee
Like a scattered pile of leaves in a storm
Peaceful memory like lights on a Christmas tree
Every hometown should be peaceful and warm
Every father mother sister brother friend of the family
Peaceful and warm
Somehow now and then didn't seem to blend
'Till a farmer plowing his field waved hello
Another working man doing the best he can
I hope he is peaceful and warm
Peaceful memory plows in the green field sea
Every hometown should be peaceful and warm
Every father mother sister brother friend of the family
Peaceful and warm
On the Kansas banks of the Muddy Mo'
I threw rocks in the river and dreamed of running away
In a wind of change only a father knows
In a world so hectic so cold
I guess my old hometown's kinda dead and gone
Miss the sign on I-29 and you blow right by
But it's a place I can go remember where I come from
It will help me keep me peaceful and warm
Peaceful memory the only thing that's free
Take them and try to be peaceful and warm
Every father every sister every friend of the family
Peaceful peaceful and warm
Yeah-eah
