Ricky was a young boy, he had a heart of stone,
Lived 9 to 5 and worked his fingers to the bone.
Just barely got out of school, came from the edge of town.
Fought like a switchblade so no one could take him down.
He had no money, oooh no good at home.
He walked the streets a soldier and he fought the world alone
And now it's

She was a ballerina on a subway train
Stiletto heels and a candy cane
Looked like a number on a station wall
Hot on the tail of a social call

I wet my lips I thought I had it made
Like Valentino with a hand grenade
I made my move with my libido on

As the day breaks through the doorway
And I'm still chained to this house
But you call me and I follow
And act like I'm so proud
Still reading the sidewalk
And it smells like morning news
And I don't know why I still can't
Seem to pull away from you

What was it you once said
That there would be things in life that couldn't be
Not for a second did I believe you
Not for a minute did I believe that

Within your need you lie alone
This empty space you call your home

Can't Stand The Heartache

Fall in love with a twisted lady
Suicide with a cover girl
Spent all your time then you got stuck paying the price

Uptown, kick it down, into a spin
Face the wall, take it all, you just can't win

Have you looked at yourself lately
You see the lines of time?
Walking dead amongst the living
Chaos by design
I’ve seen you fall this far before
I’ve seen you disappear
You’ve thrown it all into the fire
Ashes in your tears

Ricky was a young boy, he had a heart of stone,
Lived 9 to 5 and worked his fingers to the bone.
Just barely got out of school, came from the edge of town.
Fought like a switchblade so no one could take him down.
He had no money, oooh no good at home.
He walked the streets a soldier and he fought the world alone
And now it's

There are things we cannot see
that hang Within her sight
There are people we won't remember
that Dance with her at night

(Chorus)
Eileen's calling me
To sit awhile and talk to trees

How can I see tomorrow if you keep me in the dark
When will I see forever if you damn me from the start
There must be a way to get through to your
Blackened heart

You build a wall inside a wall and there's no door

Lay your body by the water

Remember when we were young
Just two kids on the run
With our fists full of dreams

Took it awhile, playin' it cool
Stayed up late cuttin' school
While lightin' cigarettes, like James Dean

Your jokes ain't funny and there's nothin' you say that I wanna hear
The sound of the door slammin' your ass out is music to my ears
If I can't beat you then I m gonna beat you to a pulp
So can the TV rays and take my tonsil glaze right down your throat

You're standin' to close what the fuck's with you
You ain't my old lady and you ain't a tattoo
No need to whimper no need to shout

I feel the things I said
but never said how I felt
I know I waited much too long
could I get it in your head
without a head full of doubt
looking back it seems that I
went about it all wrong

Trip the wires down around my feet
Setting fires up and down the street
Calling shotgun with no one at the wheel
Hiding from the boogie man because I broke the deal

Hang man is coming and he’s killing on command
Can’t hide away. It’s too late to pray.
Don’t burn the devil when you’re feeding from his hand

Six foot one and lonely
Dressed in spaghetti rags
Standing at the bus stop
With her alligator bags

What can u do?
No, no, no, what can I do
I better see a doctor

Woke up to the sound of pouring rain
the wind would whisper and i'd think of you
and all the tears you cried, that called my name
and when you needed me i came through

I paint a picture of the days gone by
when love went blind and you would make me see
i'd stare a lifetime into your eyes

I Remember You Two

Woke up to the sound of pouring rain
The wind would whisper and I'd think of you
And all the tears you cried, that called my name
But when you needed me I came through
And when you needed me I came through

In a darkened room
Beyond the reach of Gods faith
Lies the wounded, the shattered
remains of love betrayed
And the innocense of a child is bought
and sold
In the name of the damned
The rage of the angels left silent

In a darkened room
Beyond the reach of God's faith
Lies the wounded, the shattered remains of love betrayed
And the innocence of a child is bought and sold
In the name of the damned
The rage of the angels left silent and cold

Forgive me please for I know not what I do

Slowly I heal the love that's found its way
Onto another path in times of change
Crossing a bridge unknown
Hoping our strength will hold
Should they both let go then let me lay
Let me lay

Refrain:

Dashing through the snow
In a one-horse open sleigh
Over the fields we go
Laughing all the way
Bells on bob-tail ring
Making spirits bright
What fun it is to ride
And sing

We've got the bullet and the Bible we defend it with
You can believe what you've been told
No such thing as zombies of an alien apocalypse
We've got the matters in control

can't find salvation in a candy coated letter bomb
No rights of passage are for free
We want till we need then we fight till we bleed

I have been here for so long
I've carried all the weight
'Til something pulls me underneath the tide
Climb to where the air is thin
so I can breathe again
Still it makes me wonder deep inside

Nothing's free

T-bone Billy just a singin' the blues
Caught his lady with another man
Lit up a smoke and did some talkin'
With the back of his hand

She started shakin', started losing her mind
But he was kicking back and playing it cool
Signed her walkin' papers

Caught the mother jack knifin'
A little bit low lifin'
Goin' twenty paces with the medicine man
Runnin' from the girl in pigskin
A little gun shy but shootin'
Hidin' in the kitchen with his head in his hand

Bleed, me why can't you say what you mean?

The night approaches, after dark you have no chance
Ooh, when moonlight takes the sky, you'll feel my dark romance

I'm on your footsteps and I wait behind your back
I spread like fire upon the streets I'm ready to attack

I'm the only thing you need
Upon your love I feed

Outside my window thereґs a
Whole lot of trouble cominґ
The cartoon killers and the
Rag cover clones
Stack heels kickinґ rhythm
Of social circumcision
Canґt close the closet on
Shoe box full of bones

Count down to the minute
Time keeps tickin’ away
Born to lose and dying to win
Is not the way I play

Get the high that you’re lookin for
While the world goes straight to hell
Die young is what they’re sayin’

Houses on the hill
Looking down on all the little people's lives
And wondering it I've been missing out
Growing up is hard, isn't that what Bowie sang
When he was young
Before he knew what growing up was like

Guess I’ll never know, so I'll take it day by day

In between the hatred and the vow
Is the dead end that we’re at right now

No one’s got the power til they’re put into a rage
No one’s got desire while they’re living in a cage
Someone’s catching bullets that they hold between their teeth
While some are sweatin bullets with a land mine underneath

Mother step to the light that’s before you
Mother change in the seasons I see
Winter’s on the rise
Autumn still in my eyes
Reborn as daylight dies
The night of the longest goodbyes
New life is passing us by

There's a sound in my head. Holy wine,
breakin' bread between time and what
we said drifts the innocence we've
shed. In this moment there's a day for
a sad and broken babe. there's a
fracture on this hallowed ground
where we lay One light burns, one
light fades. Behind the door are

Sleazin' in the city
Lookin' for a fight
Got my heels and lookin' pretty
On a Saturday night, night, night

Good God, bless my soul
I need a fix of rock 'n roll
Come on baby you gotta wait and see

Check out Clementine
Cleanin needles in her wine
Face down in her one-eyed world
With her brain-dead valentine

Shell be your zombie, your livin dead
Her sweet corruption
Its gonna make you, gonna break you

I laid my soul in front of you
I tied myself to the railroad tracks
You refused my point of view
Then diluted all my facts

You won it, you broke it
You held it to choke it
You’re pulling my heart

She caught the melting sky
It burned but still the winter passes
by and by
To the other side

A slow parade of wind
That blows through threes
That wilted with the seasons children

Rattlesnake Shake

Tricky little Vicky walks along South Street
She learned her French from the boys that she'd meet
I gotta laugh when I hear them say
She's a sweet little cheese when the cat's away

I know what you been trying

A month of Monday mornings
You tell me I don't want it
You came and stole your love for me

Shout Screaming is just an old song
You now say stop but I go
This ain't know-how Brass Fantasy

Brothers and sisters
Listen to me say
The world’s on fire
But not the end of days

It’s not religion
I’m not the voodoo child
Don’t bless my heart or curse my soul

I never wanted to be President
Cause its nothin but an
ego trip, yeah
I didnt want your education
Cause its notin but a pile of shit

You bore me to death, so shut up
for Gods sake

I never promised you the sunshine
you never handed me the moon
we're pulling threads out of our faded silver lining
we've grown out of our cocoon

The last train is leaving
there's nothing more than I can say
I didn't mean to bring you down

I say it s your love that keeps me alive
But you drag me through the mud like a four wheel drive
I ve give you the moon, I ll give you my last beer
I d rather move too fast than be stuck in gear

Maybe there s something that I don t see
Are you in 3D?
Are you the devil s seed or the devil in me

You got me forced to crack
my lids in two
I'm still stuck inside this rubber room
I gotta punch the clock that
leads the blind
I'm just another gear in the assembly
line - oh no

GIVE ME LOVE
GIVE ME HOPE
GIVE ME STRENGTH
GIVE ME SOMEONE TO LIVE FOR

Who will light the fire
That I need to survive
Who will be the life blood

Give me love
Give me hope
Give me strength
Give me someone to live for

Who will light the fire
That I need to survive
Who will be the life blood

She blew my mind behind the wrecking machine
She was a shitload of trouble called the Subway Queen
Had a hip with bad habits and a shake that was a bit obscene

One night I caught her running out the cellar door
There was about a million people lying flat on the floor
For such a sweet little lady I would swear she's rotten to the core

[Bolan, Snake]

I've been convicted with and
without reason
Tarred and feathered like a piper on
a killing spree
And felt the anger of generations
And been the target of the cheap shots

Eightball hanging overhead
Flushed out like Frankenstien,
One more for the living dead
Thats not me this time.
Knocked down I've been down before
Yet still we bare the load,
If I would want it anymore
I just might explode!

Tick, tick, tick, tick
Tick, tick, tick

Sitting in the dark
Waiting for the start
The start of something new

Running into walls

You and I together in our lives
Sacred ties would never fray
Then why can't I let myself tell lies
And watch you die every day
I think back to the times
When dreams were what mattered
Tough talking youth naivete
You said you never let me down

Meet you at 11 by the park and don’t be late
Youre in the right direction if you follow the lights down broadway

Pass a gorilla while hes beatin his chest
His girlfriend has a voodoo doll pinned to her vest
Don’t worry ‘bout ‘em cuz theyre not gonna bother you

Don’t be scared of the living dead

Times they have changed into stories forgotten
Footprints we leave become nothing but lost
Radio silence should be words to live by
Yet we get caught in the signals we cross

Is this the world that we live in?
Why do we poison the air?
Let’s see the way to tomorrow

Since I was born they couldn't hold me down
Another misfit kid, another burned-out town

Never played by the rules I never really cared
My nasty reputation takes me everywhere

I look and see it's not only me
So many others have stood where I stand

Она бродит в облаках
И мечтает о друзьях
Зебрах, бабочках и сказках
Под луной
Эти все её мечты
Навевает ветер.

Грустно мне - она придёт
