I think I know the answer I stumbled on and all the world Fell down And all the sky went silent Cracked like glass and slowly Tumbled to the ground They say if you look hard You'll find your way back home Born without a friend And bound to die alone I'm thinking of your highness And crying long upon the loss I've found And on the plus and minus Zero chance of ever Turning this around Why doesn't anyone believe In loneliness Stand up and everyone will see Your holiness Why doesn't anyone believe In loneliness Stand up and everyone will see Your holiness They say if you look hard You'll find your way back home Born without a friend And bound to die alone

I think it's turning back around And I think I like it I think it's turning back around Though I don't know why it is I think it's turning back on me I'm down on the upside I think it's turning back on me Now I'm the good ride And nothing's gonna put me out It's backing down and under I'm down on the upside now It's turning back around Turning back around I think it's coming on the wind Just like you said it I think it's coming on the wind And I'm gonna let it I think it's turning back on me Everything's easy I think it's turning back on me Everything's real to me

I had a dog he was a mix He loved me like a God But I was just a kid The kind mother likes Now I'm big like the sky And I'm down sized inside I'll put this all to rest I'm just a baby who looks like a boy I'm getting all depressed I'm just a baby who looks like a boy I got my father's sense And my big brother's pants And I look like a man And I feel like an ant Just a speck on the ground Growing like a weed A fleck of a seed I'll put my hand in flames I'm just a baby who looks like a boy Feels like I'm born again I'm just a baby who looks like a boy I'm just a baby who looks like a boy And I'll keep hanging from your hair And I'll keep playing in the sand Just as long as I can

No one can save The pure or the brave No one can save them at all Grow and decay Grow and decay It's only forever Loosely or tightly Everything fits Even the wrists on your arm Grow and decay Grow and decay It's only forever

I can't live when it lives It won't live if I die Machine has no heart to give Heart it takes could be mine Come on Come down Come out from where you hide Follows me down the river Shadows me through the sky A sideways glance in the mirror Stalemate machine in a tie Come on Come down Come out from where you hide Get up Get off Get on with your life Forever means all is not seen Never means forever brings everything I fashion will and desire Always I and I survive Mercurial mind the fire Ferrivorous direction and drive Come on Come down Come out from where you hide Get up Get off Get on with your life Presently, I see myself clearer Why time I visualize I spy device in the mirror Checkmate watch machine die

Shadow face Blowing smoke and talking wind Lost my grip Fell too far to start again A sudden snake Found my shape and tells the world Remember this Remember everything is just black Or burning sun And I hope it's a sweet ride Sleep tight for me Sleep tight for me I'm gone Warm and sweet Swinging from a windows ledge Tight and deep One last sin before I'm dead A sucking holy wind Will take me from this bed tonight And bloody wits Another hits me and I have to say goodbye And I hope it's a sweet ride Here for me tonight Cause I feel I'm going Feel I'm slowing down

I've got war on my mind blood on my hands And love on my head So open your hands open your mouth Let it be said You know I've got it mad in my mind Don't waste my time it's not going to change So say what you want spit it out loud Into my face And I'll pay no attention They're gonna tell you where to walk When to smile and just what to say They say have your own fun Make your own mind And don't make no waves But if you got a handful of change Don't throw it away it's gonna come So say what you want, suck all my Suck on my brain And I'll pay no attention

Hey you slaves go hang your owners Draw your names among their ashes Put your children on their thrones Gather 'round and fall right down Here at sundown nothing is when Everything is all right Switch opens Opening around and let's the garden rise Switch is on Hey you patients Where's your surgeon Left with your Insides open Hung your hearts out On the table Gather 'round and fall right down Feel the air now Stumbling and wander in the moonshine Switch opens Nothing is when everything is all right Switch is on

Come on in and take me on an override Been stuck inside and up all night at Dave's Now trouble's far away, and mother in her cage And nothings gonna pinch this nerve of mine I wanna make it right Close the door and pull the shades And climb the walls Feel medicine heal the lines of age I'm here and now I'm gone I'm there and far beyond And nothing's gonna pinch this nerve of mine Nothing's gonna pinch this nerve of mine I wanna make it right I'm on the wire over and higher Over the pretense over the (spire) why On and connected I'm overfloating now I'm overfloating alone Hold the potion up Remember to forget and then rename your shame I wanna make it right I'm on the wire over and higher Over the pretense over the (spire) why On and connected I'm overfloating now I'm overfloating alone

We see the vipers of distance Crawl into our lives everyday Breeding our Edens of hatred Pathetically stupid and unkind We couldn't look a saint in the eyes On the storm It's time to go On the storm It's time to go Marching in lines of contradiction Forgetting the history we make Loving our hangmen as the Penultimate joke We lack the Moses...to look A saint in the eye

I must obey the rules I must be tame and cool No staring at the clouds I must stay on the ground In clusters of the mice The smoke is in our eyes Like babies on display Like angels in a cage I must be pure and true I must contain my views There must be something else There must be something good Far away
