Losing Touch Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Console me in my darkest hour
Convince me that the truth is always gray
Caress me in your velvet chair
Conceal me from the ghost you cast away
[Chorus 1]
I ain't in no hurry
You go run and tell your friends I'm losing touch
Fill their heads with rumors of impending doom
It must be true
[Verse 2]
Console me in my darkest hour
And tell me that you always hear my cries
I wonder what you've got conspired
I'm sure it dawns a consolation prize
[Chorus 2]
I ain't in no hurry
You go run and tell your friends I'm losing touch
Fill the night with stories, the legend grows
Of how you got lost
But you made your way back home
You sold your soul
Like a roamin' vagabond, yeah
[Bridge]
I heard you found a wishing well in the city
Console me in my darkest hour
Then you throw me down
I ain't in no hurry
You go run and tell your friends I'm losing touch
Fill your crown with rumors
Impending doom, it must be true
[Chorus 3]
But you made your way back home
You sold your soul like a roamin' vagabond
And about how you got lost
But you made your way back home
You went and sold your soul
An allegiance dead and gone
I'm losing touch
Human Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I did my best to notice
When the call came down the line
Up to the platform of surrender
I was brought, but I was kind
And sometimes I get nervous
When I see an open door
Close your eyes, clear your heart
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Cut the cord
[Chorus]
Are we human
Or are we dancer?
My sign is vital
My hands are cold
And I'm on my knees
Looking for the answer
Are we human
Or are we dancer?
[Verse 2]
Pay my respects to grace and virtue
Send my condolences to good
Give my regards to soul and romance
They always did the best they could
And so long to devotion
You taught me everything I know
Wave goodbye, wish me well
[Pre-Chorus 2]
You've got to let me go
[Chorus]
Are we human
Or are we dancer?
My sign is vital
My hands are cold
And I'm on my knees
Looking for the answer
Are we human
Or are we dancer?
[Bridge]
Will your system be alright
When you dream of home tonight?
There is no message we're receiving
Let me know, is your heart still beating?
[Chorus]
Are we human
Or are we dancer?
My sign is vital
My hands are cold
And I'm on my knees
Looking for the answer
[Pre-Chorus 3]
You've got to let me know
[Chorus]
Are we human
Or are we dancer?
My sign is vital
My hands are cold
And I'm on my knees
Looking for the answer
Are we human
Or are we dancer?
[Outro]
Are we human
Or are we dancer?
Are we human
Or are we dancer?
Spaceman Lyrics
[Intro]
Oh oh oh
Oh oh o-oh
Oh oh oh
Oh oh o-oh
Oh oh oh
Oh oh o-oh
Oh oh oh
Oh oh o-oh
[Verse 1]
It started with a low light
Next thing I knew, they ripped me from my bed
And then they took my blood type
It left a strange impression in my head
You know that I was hoping
That I could leave this star-crossed world behind
But when they cut me open
I guess I changed my mind
[Pre-Chorus]
And you know, I might
Have just flown too far from the floor this time
'Cause they're calling me by my name
And they're zipping white light beams
Disregarding bombs and satellites
That was the turning point
That was one lonely night
[Chorus]
The storm maker says, "It ain't so bad"
The dream maker's gonna make you mad
The spaceman says, "Everybody, look down
It's all in your mind"
[Verse 2]
Well, now I'm back at home, and
I'm looking forward to this life I live
You know it's gonna haunt me
So hesitation to this life I give
You think you might cross over
You're caught between the devil and the deep blue sea
You'd better look it over
Before you make that leap
[Pre-Chorus]
And you know I'm fine
But I hear those voices at night sometimes
They justify my claim
And the public don't dwell on my transmission
'Cause it wasn't televised
But it was the turning point
Oh, what a lonely night
[Chorus]
The storm maker says, "It ain't so bad"
The dream maker's gonna make you mad
The spaceman says, "Everybody, look down
It's all in your mind"
The storm maker says, "It ain't so bad"
The dream maker's gonna make you mad
The spaceman says, "Everybody, look down
It's all in your mind"
[Bridge]
My global position systems are vocally addressed
They say the Nile used to run from east to west
They say the Nile used to run
From east to west
[Pre-Chorus]
I'm fine
But I hear those voices at night
Sometimes
[Chorus]
The storm maker says, "It ain't so bad"
The dream maker's gonna make you mad
The spaceman says, "Everybody, look down
It's all in your mind"
The storm maker says, "It ain't so bad"
The dream maker's gonna make you mad
The spaceman says, "Everybody, look down
It's all in your mind"
[Outro]
It's all in my mind
It's all in my mind
Joy Ride Lyrics
[Verse 1]
It's getting close to sundown
Over the Sierra
Stranded on the heat wave
Burning with desire
She was on the sidewalk
Looking for a nightlife
Talked about the real thing
And drove into the fire
Headlights on the highway
The desert wind is howling
Rattlesnakes and romance
Are spilling with the rain
Candy apple red dress
Bleeding when she kissed me
Heaven in a rag top
Takes away my-my pain
[Chorus]
When your chips are down
When your highs are low
Joy ride
(Joy ride)
Move across the night like a separate wind
(Joy ride)
[Verse 2]
Pulled up to a motel
Vacancy was buzzing
Pink and dirty neon
Settled on the hood
Wrapped her arms around me
Come a little closer
Stumbled in the twilight
And fell onto the floor of the Mona Lisa
Dreaming of the free world
Lipstick on the nightstand
And demons at the door
[Chorus]
When your chips are down
When your highs are low
Joy ride
(Joy ride)
Move across the night like a separate wind
(Joy ride)
When your hopes and dreams
Lose the will to go
Joy ride
(Joy ride)
Reaching for the light
More than we can win
(Joy ride)
[Bridge]
There's something in the distance
A glorious existence
A simple celebration
A place you never been before
(Why don't you kiss me?)
Tell me that you want it more
[Chorus]
Reaching for the light
More than we can win
When your chips are down
(When your chips are down)
When your highs are low
Joy ride
(Joy ride)
All your hopes and dreams
All you need to know
Joy ride
(Joy ride)
A Dustland Fairytale Lyrics
[Verse 1]
A Dustland fairytale beginning with just another white trash county kiss
In '61, long brown hair and foolish eyes
He looked just like you'd want him to
Some kind of slick chrome American prince
A blue jean serenade
Moon River what'd you do to me?
I don't believe you
[Chorus]
Saw Cinderella in a party dress
But she was lookin' for a night gown
I saw the Devil wrappin' up his hands
He's gettin' ready for the showdown
I saw the minute that I turned away
I got my money on a pawn tonight
[Verse 2]
A change came in disguise of revelation set his soul on fire
She said she always knew he'd come around
And the decades disappear like sinkin' ships
But we persevere, God gives us hope
But we still fear what we don't know
The mind is poison
Castles in the sky sit stranded, vandalized
We're drawbridges closin'
[Chrous]
Saw Cinderella in a party dress
But she was lookin' for a nightgown
I saw the Devil wrappin' up his hands
He's gettin' ready for the showdown
I saw the ending when they turned the page
I threw my money and I ran away
Straight to the valley of the great divide
Out where the dreams all hide
[Bridge]
Out where the wind don't blow
Out here the good girls die
And the sky won't snow
Out here the bird don't sing
Out here the field don't grow
Out here the bell don't ring
Out here the bell don't ring
Out here the good girls die
[Outro]
Now Cinderella don't you go to sleep
It's such a bitter form of refuge
Oh, don't you know the kingdom's under siege
And everybody needs you
Is there still magic in the midnight sun
Or did you leave it back in '61
In the cadence of a young man's eyes
Out where the dreams all hide
This Is Your Life Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Candy talks to strangers
Thinks her life's in danger
No one gives a damn about her hair
It's lonely down on Track Street
She used to go by Jackie
The cops, they'll steal your dreams and they'll kill your prayers
Take a number where the blood just barely dried
[Chorus]
Wait for something better
No one behind you
Watching your shadows
This feeling won't go
[Verse 2]
Crooked wheels keep turning
Children, are you learning
Acclimatized, but don't you lose the plot
A history of blisters
Your brothers and your sisters
Somewhere in the pages we forgot
[Pre-Chorus]
Take a number Jackie
Where the blood just barely dried
You know I'm on your side
[Chorus]
Wait for something better
No one behind you
Watching your shadows
You got to be stronger than the story
Don't let it blind you
Rivers are shallow
This feeling won't go
[Bridge]
Your sky is full of dreams
But you don't know how to fly
I don't have a simple answer
But I know that I could answer
Something better
[Outro]
This feeling won't go
Wait for it
Wait for it
Wait for it
Wait for it
I Can’t Stay Lyrics
[Verse 1]
The emotion it was electric
And the stars, they all aligned
I knew I had to make my decision
But I never made the time
No, I never made the time
[Chorus]
In the dark, for a while now
I can't stay, so far
I can't stay much longer
Riding my decision home
[Verse 2]
Exoneration lost his eraser
But my forgiver found the sun
And there are twisted days that I take comfort
Because I'm not the only one
No, I'm not the only one
[Chorus]
In the dark, for a while now
I can't stay, very far
I can't stay much longer
Riding my decision home
[Bridge]
Now there's a majesty at my doorstep
And there's a little boy in her arms
Now we'll parade around without game plans
Obligation or alarm
[Chorus]
In the dark, for a while now
I can't stay, very far
I can't stay much longer
Riding my decision home
In the dark, for a while now
I can't stay, so far
I can't stay much longer
Riding my decision home
In the dark
Neon Tiger Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Far from the evergreen of old Assam
Far from the rainfall on the trails of old Saigon
Straight from the poster town of scorn and Ritz
To bring you the wilder side of gold and glitz
[Chorus 1]
Run neon tiger there's a lot on your mind
They promised just to pet you, but don't you let them get you
Away, away, oh, run
Under heat of the southwest sun
[Verse 2]
Took to the spotlight like a diamond ring
Came from the woodwork in the hopes they might
Redeem themselves from poor decisions to win big
[Chorus 2]
Run neon tiger there's a lot on your mind
They'll strategize and maim you, but don't you let them tame you
You're far too pure and bold
To suffer the strain of the hand and its hold
[Bridge]
I don't want to be kept, I don't want to be caged
I don't want to be damned, oh hell
I don't want to be broke, I don't want to be saved
I don't want to be S.O.L
Give me rolling hills and tonight can be the night
That I stand among the thousand thrills
Mister cut me some slack, cause I don't want to go back
I want a new day and age
Come on girls and boys, everyone make some noise!
[Chorus 3]
Run neon tiger there's a price on your head
They'll hunt you down and gut you, I'll never let 'em touch you
Away, away, oh, run
I'm begging you neon tiger run
Under the heat of
Under the heat of
Under the heat of southwest sun
[Outro]
Neon tiger
There's a lot on your mind
The World We Live In Lyrics
[Chorus 1]
This is the world that we live in
I feel myself get tired
This is the world that we live in
[Verse 1]
Well maybe I was mistaken
I heard a rumor that you quit this day and age
Well maybe I was mistaken
[Chorus 2]
Bless your body, bless your soul
Pray for peace and self-control
[Verse 2]
I gotta believe it's worth it
Without a victory
I'm so sanctified and free
Well maybe I'm just mistaken
Lesson learned and the wheels keep turning
This is the world that we live in
I can't take blame for two
This is the world that we live in
And maybe we'll make it through
[Chorus 2]
Bless your body, bless your soul
Reel me in and cut my throat
Underneath the waterfall
Baby, we're still in this boat
[Chorus 1]
This is the world that we live in
I feel myself get tired
This is the world that we live in
[Verse 3]
I had a dream that I was falling, down
There's no next time around
A storm wastes its water on me
But my life was free
[Chorus 3]
I guess it's the world that we live in
It's not too late for that
This is the world that we live in
And no, we can't go back
This is the world that we live in
I still want something real
This is the world that we live in
I know that we can heal over time
[Outro]
This is the world that we live in
Goodnight, Travel Well Lyrics
[Verse 1]
The unknown distance to the great beyond
Stares back at my grieving frame
To cast my shadow by the holy sun
My spirit moans with a sacred pain
And it's quiet now
The universe is standing still
[Chorus]
There's nothing I can say
There's nothing we can do now
There's nothing I can say
There's nothing we can do now
[Verse 2]
And all that stands between the souls release
This temporary flesh and bone
We know that it's over now
I feel my faded mind begin to roam
Every time you fall
And every time you try
Every foolish dream
And every compromise
Every word you spoke
And everything you said
Everything you left me, rambles in my head
[Chorus]
There's nothing I can say
There's nothing we can do now
There's nothing I can say
There's nothing we can do now
Up above the world so high
[Verse 3]
And everything you loved
And every time you try
Everybody's watching
Everybody cry
Stay, don't leave me
The stars can wait for your sign
Don't signal now
[Chorus]
There's nothing I can say
There's nothing we can do now
There's nothing I can say
There's nothing we can do now
[Outro]
Goodnight, travel well
Goodnight, travel well
And there's nothing I can say
There's nothing I can do now
Goodnight, travel well
Travel well, travel well
