Your Time Has Come

Now, one fell asleep in the street and he never woke up
Now, one died in pieces in his bed with a mouth full of gold
One who threatened me long ago, I saw him melt in the bright light of day
And one laid to rest in a field under starlings and crows, yeah

I’ve been wandering sideways
I’ve stared straight into the sun
Still I don’t know why you're dying
Long before your time has come
Your time has come

Now, one took some bullets in the chest in a deal gone wrong
One got a little too depressed and he went and jumped the gun
One got shot right in the face and he somehow survived
But he doesn’t know my name or who I am, and I’m not surprised, yeah

I’ve been wandering sideways
I’ve stared straight into the sun
Still I don’t know why you're dying
Long before your time has come

Yeah, I’ve been wandering sideways
And I’ve stared straight into the sun
Still I don’t know why you're dying
Long before your time has come
Your time has come

I’ve seen 50,000 names all engraved on a stone
Most of them met an early grave years before I was born
All of them left brothers and sisters and mothers behind
And most of their family and friends alive and doing time

I’ve been wandering sideways
I’ve stared straight into the sun
And I don’t know why you are dying
Long before your time has come

Yeah, I’ve been wandering sideways
I’ve stared straight into the sun
And I don’t know why you are dying
Long before your time has come
Long before your time has come
Long before your time has come
And your time has come


Out Of Exile

When I first came to this island
That I called by my own name
I was happy in this fortress
In my exile I remained
But the hours grew so empty
And the ocean sent her waves
In the figure of a woman
She pulled me out to sea

When you come down to take me home
Send my soul away
When you come round you’ll make me whole
Send my soul away

On the altar of a sunrise
Was a wedding in the waves
And inside her shown a young light
From her labor I was saved
Though I’ve traveled long in darkness
In her harvest I’m embraced

When you come down to take me home
Send my soul away
When you come round you’ll make me whole
Send my soul away

Now the spires and the gables
Grow in orchards to the sky
And the blessings on my table
Multiply and divide

When you come down to take me home
Send my soul away
Yeah, when you come round you’ll make me whole
Send my soul away
Yeah, when you come down to take me home
When you come round you’ll make me whole
Yeah, when you come round to take me home
Send my soul away
Send my soul away
Send my soul away
Send my soul away


Be Yourself

Someone falls to pieces
Sleeping all alone, someone kills the pain
Spinning in the silence
She finally drifts away
Someone gets excited in a chapel yard
And catches a bouquet
Another lays a dozen
White roses on a grave

And be yourself is all that you can do
To be yourself is all that you can do

Someone finds salvation in everyone
Another only pain
Someone tries to hide himself
Down inside himself he prays
Someone swears his true love until the end of time
Another runs away
Separate or united
Healthy or insane

And be yourself is all that you can do
To be yourself is all that you can do
To be yourself is all that you can do
To be yourself is all that you can do

Even when you’ve paid enough
And been put upon or been held up
With every single memory of
The good or bad, faces of luck
Don’t lose any sleep tonight
I’m sure everything will end up alright
You may win or lose

But to be yourself is all that you can do, yeah
To be yourself is all that you can do, oh
To be yourself is all that you can do
To be yourself is all that you can do
To be yourself is all that you can
Be yourself is all that you can
Be yourself is all that you can do


Doesn't Remind Me

I walk the streets of Japan till I get lost
Cause it doesn’t remind me of anything
With a graveyard tan and carrying a cross
Yeah, it doesn’t remind me of anything
I like studying faces in a parking lot
Cause it doesn’t remind me of anything
I like driving backwards in the fog
Cause it doesn’t remind me of anything

The things that I’ve loved, the things that I’ve lost
The things I’ve held sacred, that I’ve dropped
I won’t lie no more, you can bet
I don’t want to learn what I’ll need to forget

I like gypsy moths and radio talk
Cause it doesn’t remind me of anything
I like gospel music and canned applause
Cause it doesn’t remind me of anything
I like colorful clothing in the sun
Cause it doesn’t remind me of anything
I like hammering nails and speaking in tongues
Cause it doesn’t remind me of anything

The things that I’ve loved, the things that I’ve lost
The things I’ve held sacred, that I’ve dropped
I won’t lie no more, you can bet
I don’t want to learn what I’ll need

Bend and shape me
I love the way you are
Slow and sweetly
Like never before
Calm and sleeping
We won’t stir up the past
So discretely
We won’t look back

Yeah, the things that I’ve loved, the things that I’ve lost
The things I’ve held sacred, that I’ve dropped
I won’t lie no more, you can bet
I don’t want to learn what I’ll need

I like throwing my voice and breaking guitars
Cause it doesn’t remind me of anything
I like playing in the sand, what’s mine is ours
If it doesn’t remind me of anything


Drown Me Slowly

I’ve got a will this time; I don’t care what you say
I’ve got a feeling this will all go away
It’s in the wind this time; it’s in the southern sky
I can’t walk on water yet, won’t even try

Drown me slowly
Enclose me
Drown me slowly, alright
Drown me slowly
Enfold me
Drown me slowly

All that I took with me was a bad taste in my mouth
Went all around the world just couldn’t spit it out
Just like ground zero was the surface of the sun
That’s a sickness I can’t fix it not all at once

Drown me slowly
Enclose me
Drown me slowly, alright
Drown me slowly
Enfold me
Drown me slowly

Don’t let them take you down
You’ll leave a better world than you found
Don’t let them take you down
You’ll leave a better world than you found
Don’t let them take you down
Don’t let them take you down
Don’t let them take you down
Don’t let them take you down

"The open mouth of the sea swallowed the town
With the same old concrete, that was all I found
And it seemed to put a shine on this place when I was young
Lately I began to see it drown..."

Drown me slowly
Enclose me
Drown me slowly, alright
Drown me slowly
Enfold me
Drown me slowly

Drown me slowly (Drown me slowly)
Drown me slowly (Drown me slowly)
Drown me slowly


Heaven's Dead

Anchor the night, open the sky
Hide in the hours before sunrise
Pray for me not, I won’t lose sight
Of where I belong and where you lie

Heaven’s dead when you get sad
I see your wishes flyin'
Out of time
For the best time you’ve had

Shipwreck the sun; well I’m on your side
An army of one, onward we will ride
Whisper your songs, birds to the air
We’ll bury all of our burdens there

Well, heaven’s dead when you get sad
I see your wishes flyin'
Out of time
For the best time you’ve had

Heaven’s dead when you get sad
I see your wishes flyin'
Out of time
For the best time you’ve had

For the best time you had
The best time you had
Heaven’s dead when you get sad

Heaven’s dead when you get sad
I see your wishes flyin'
Out of time
For the best time you’ve had

Heaven’s dead when you get sad
I see your wishes flyin'
Out of time

I’ll take it all, arrows or guns
Hundreds or more to save you from one
To save you from one
To save you from one

Heaven’s dead when you get sad


The Worm

There was a time early in life
When I hated everything
Born too young, top of my lungs
Sitting on the bottom rung
Took advice from the wrong shoulder
Took a lot of everything
I’ve decided to make it alright with my

Halo -- I’m complete
Halo -- With me underneath
Halo -- I’m reborn
I can do no wrong

Black and blue, suffering fools
By the age of seventeen
Low and high, just one more time
Felt like an eternity
Right or wrong, never too strong
Friends became my enemies
God forsaken, but never too late with my

Halo -- I’m complete
Halo -- With me underneath
Halo -- I’m reborn
I can do no wrong

You’ll never change (You'll stay the same)
You'll never change (You'll stay the same)
(You’ll stay the same)

Halo -- I’m complete
Halo -- with me underneath
Halo -- I’m reborn
Halo -- I’m complete
Halo -- with me underneath
Halo -- I’m reborn
I can do no wrong


Man Or Animal

You give me a heart attack
You look like the summertime
You call me an artifact
But I’ll save that for another time
I could be rich or poor
I don’t need anymore

Keep your love inside the kitchen
You can feed me anything
Leave the feathers on the chicken
Peel the leather from your skin
I can be young or old
Sweet or sad, hot or cold

Man or animal, I don’t care at all
Find the antidote underneath the dose
Man or animal, obedient...
Out of control

I will love you more than money
I will breathe you in the smoke
I will drink you in my honey
Sweet and golden down my throat

When you’re right or when you’re wrong
Head is near, eyes are gone
You can drown my appetite
I will sip your tears at night

You can tie me to a chair
Skin and bones, I don’t care
I could be rich or poor
I don’t need anymore

Man or animal, I don’t care at all
Find the antidote underneath the dose
Man or animal, obedient...
Out of control

Man or animal, I don’t care at all
Find the antidote underneath the dose
Man or animal, obedient...
Out of control
Out of control

You give me a heart attack
(You give me a heart attack)
I will give you more than that
(I will give you more than that)
You give me a heart attack
(You give me a heart attack)
I will give you more than that
(I will give you more than that)


Yesterday To Tomorrow

Beauty is what eyes behold
And you burn brighter than most
I chased you thru the midnight streets
To be where I could speak freely
I didn’t care what tomorrow held
I felt the world turning only for us
Only bliss now for you and me
Rise up, let life’s kiss send us reeling

And unlike the times before
From yesterday comes tomorrow
When life comes alive, the past moves aside
No regrets and no remorse

C'mon

We have more than everything
More than man or machine
More than luck
More than fiction
Higher than any religion

And unlike the times before
From yesterday comes tomorrow
When life comes alive, the past moves aside
No regrets and no remorse

We’ll squeeze the blood out of life
And say good night to the silver of old
And even when wrong, we’re right
Far beyond the world of diamonds and gold
I’ve come to realize
Where happiness lies
I want you to know I know

C'mon

And unlike the times before
From yesterday comes tomorrow
When life comes alive, the past moves aside
No regrets no remorse

C'mon


Dandelion

Settle down now and sit with me
Let me tell you how this all came to be
A yellow flower with your pedals to the air
And flying on paper wings that brought you here

Summer rolls on in the lazy hours
An ether dream way
Of hummingbirds and clouds
Midnight swims in the cool black waves
And you in my arms as it roll away

Little dandelion
Let your heart keep time
Now the clouds are gone
All of your tomorrows shine
All of your tomorrows shine
All of your tomorrows shine

Born of restless night the moon as a pearl
Playing games down inside your soft warm world
Hear my voice I know that you can
You’re the fire in my eyes
The sun as a man

Seasons come along and seasons go
And what they’ll leave behind
I don’t pretend to know
I’m afraid that all I have missed
Will loom very large when the darkness lifts

Little dandelion
Let your heart keep time
Now the clouds are gone
All of your tomorrows shine
All of your tomorrows shine
All of your tomorrows

I will ride by your side
Wherever you go
I won’t run, I won’t hide
Just letting you know
Just letting you know

Little dandelion
Let your heart keep time
Now the clouds are gone
All of your tomorrows shine
All of your tomorrows shine
All of your tomorrows shine
All of your tomorrows shine
All of your tomorrows shine


Number 1 Zero

Listen now and let me speak
I will be the dog at your feet
Come along when you call
Be the little bird in your straw and sing you a song
I’ll be there to take the fall
Though you tread upon me for no reason at all

But just when you think you’ve left me blind
And if I need to,
I will keep you in the corner of my eye
The corner of my eye

I will never leave your side
But you call me your number one zero
You never mind
I’ll be your king; I’ll be your pawn
I will build a pedestal and put you upon it
Oh baby

But just when you think you’ve left me blind
I will be creeping right up behind
Cause baby, if I need to
Yeah, I will keep you in the corner of my eye

Down on the street, over your night
Out of your sleep, out of your sight
If I need to, yeah, if I need to
Out of your mouth, in every word
Down in your ego one thing is sure
I will keep you, I will keep you

But just when you think you’ve left me blind
I will be creeping right up behind
Cause baby, if I need to
Yeah, I will keep you in the corner of my eye
Corner of my eye

I will be the bird in your straw
But you won’t get far
I will keep you in the corner of my eye


The Curse

Help me I don’t know what I’m doing
Help me before I fall to ruin
And if I’m blind, I will lead you on
Come follow me now, before our time is gone

And as you’re laughing at this fool tonight
Let me rid myself of any line that I might use to trip you up
And as I’m howling at the moonlight, don’t you kid yourself
I will be your luck and never be your curse
Never be your curse

Help me I don’t know what I’m saying
Sometimes this tongue can be betraying
And if I’m wrong, is that such a crime?
And if you want, you can set my words to right

So as you’re laughing at this fool tonight
Let me rid myself of any line that I might use to trip you up
And as I’m howling at the moonlight, don’t you kid yourself
I will be your luck

And if your eyes forget to well
And if your lies forget to tell
And if our paths forget to cross
It doesn’t mean you’re lost

So if you’re laughing at this fool tonight
Let me rid myself of any line that I might use to trip you up
And as I’m howling at the moonlight, don’t you kid yourself
Even in my worst

If you’re laughing at this fool tonight
Let me rid myself of any line that I might use to trip you up
And as I’m howling at the moonlight, don’t you kid yourself
I will be your luck
Even in my worst
I will be your luck
Never be your curse
