Drink me- make me real (my love)
wet your beak in the stream

the game we’re playing is life (my love)
love is a two way dream

Leave me now – return tonight
the tide will show you the way
forget my name go astray
killer whale trapped in a bay
(the ocean miles away)

I’m a path of cinders (my love)
burning under your feet
you’re the one who walks me (my love)
i’m your one way street

I’m a tree that grows hearts (my love)
one for each that you take
your the ground i feed on (my love)
we’re circle no one can break
leave me now – return tonight
the tide will show you the way
forget my name go astray
killer whale trapped in a bay
(the ocean miles away)

I’m a whisper in water (my love)
a secret for you to hear
you are the one who grows distant (my love)
when i beckon you near

Life is a necklace of fears (my love)
your uncried tears on a string
our love will untie them – come here (my love)
loving me is the easiest thing

A decade ago
I never thought I would be
At twenty three
On the verge of spontaneous combustion
Woe-is-me
But I guess that it comes With the territory
An ominous landscape of never ending calamity

I need you to hear
I need you to see
That I have had all I can take
And exploding seems like
A definite possibility to me

So pardon me while I burst into flames
I’ve had enough of the world
And it’s people’s mindless games
So pardon me while I burn
And rise above the flame
Pardon me, pardon me

I’ll never be the same

Not two days ago

I was having a look
In a book and I saw a picture of a guy fried up above his knees
I said, “I can relate,”
Cause’ lately I’ve been thinking of combustication as a welcomed vacation from
The burdens of the planet earth
Like gravity, hypocrisy, and the perils of being in 3-D
And thinking so much differently

So pardon me while I burst into flames
I’ve had enough of the world
And it’s people’s mindless games
So pardon me while I burn
And rise above the flame
Pardon me, pardon me
I’ll never be the same

Back beat, the word is on the street that the fire in your heart is out
I’m sure you’ve heard it all before but you never really had a doubt
I don’t believe that anybody feels the way I do about you now

And all the roads we have to walk are winding
And all the lights that lead us there are blinding
There are many things that I would like to say to you
But I don’t know how

Because maybe
You’re gonna be the one that saves me
And after all
You’re my wonderwall

Today was gonna be the day but they’ll never throw it back to you
By now you shoulda somehow realized what you’re not to do
I don’t believe that anybody feels the way I do about you now

And all the roads that lead you there were winding
And all the lights that light the way are blinding
There are many things that I would like to say to you
But I don’t know how

I said maybe
You’re gonna be the one that saves me
And after all
You’re my wonderwall

I said maybe
You’re gonna be the one that saves me
And after all
You’re my wonderwall

I said maybe
You’re gonna be the one that saves me
You’re gonna be the one that saves me
You’re gonna be the one that saves me

Dear God the only thing I ask of you is
to hold her when I’m not around,
when I’m much too far away
We all need that person who can be true to you
But I left her when I found her
And now I wish I’d stayed
’Cause I’m lonely and I’m tired
I’m missing you again oh no
Once again

There’s nothing here for me on this barren road
There’s no one here while the city sleeps
and all the shops are closed
Can’t help but think of the times I’ve had with you
Pictures and some memories will have to help me through, oh yeah

Dear God the only thing I ask of you is
to hold her when I’m not around,
when I’m much too far away
We all need that person who can be true to you
I left her when I found her
And now I wish I’d stayed
’Cause I’m lonely and I’m tired
I’m missing you again oh no
Once again

Some search, never finding a way
Before long, they waste away
I find you, something told me to stay
I gave in, to selfish ways
And how I miss someone to hold
when hope begins to fade…

A lonely road, crossed another cold state line
Miles away from those I love purpose hard to find

Dear God the only thing I ask of you is
to hold her when I’m not around,
when I’m much too far away
We all need the person who can be true to you
I left her when I found her
And now I wish I’d stayed
’Cause I’m lonely and I’m tired
I’m missing you again oh no
Once again

Words: jrx

Can you stay a little while, can you drink this cheap bottle of wine…
Got a love song, a broken line, yea….
Put the rose on your hair
Full of grace my queen of mistery
Can’t you see, can’t you believe
And all they say it’s true
Lady rose….

I can sing a thousand song, I can bring your kiss around town
Kiss of angel, as sweet as heaven, yea….
Put the rose on your hair
Full of grace my burnin-latin queen
Can’t you see, can’t you believe
And all they say it’s true
Lady rose….

When you fall to my arms, when you sleep for a thousand year
Never will brings you down, down down down…
You’re the heart of the crown
And the blood of all my lifetime
You are my lady rose…

Let me say this, for one last time
Of all the love and beauty I have seen
You’re the one my only one, forever….
Put the rose on your hair
Full of grace my queen of mistery
Can’t you see, can’t you believe
And all they say it’s true
Lady rose….
