Sing with me!

Recommended Posts

proud swagger out of the schoolyard

waiting for the world's applause

rebel without a conscience

martyr without a cause

 

static on your frequency

electrical storm in your veins

raging at unreachable glory

straining at invisible chains

 

and now you're trembling on a rocky ledge

staring down into a heartless sea

can't face life on a razor's edge

nothing's what you thought it would be

 

All of us get lost in the darkness

Dreamers learn to steer by the stars

All of us do time in the gutter

Dreamers turn to look at the cars

turn around and turn around and turn around

Turn around and walk the razor's edge

Don't turn your back

And slam the door on me

 

it's not as if this barricade

blocks the only road

it's not as if you're all alone

in wanting to explode

 

someone set a bad example

made surrender seem all right

the act of a noble warrior

who lost the will to fight

 

and now you're trembling on a rocky ledge

staring down into a heartless sea

done with life on a razor's edge

nothing's what you thought it would be

 

no hero in your tragedy

no daring in your escape

no salutes for your surrender

nothing noble in your fate

Christ, what have you done?

I follow the Moskva

Down to Gorky Park

Listening to the wind of change

An August summer night

Soldiers passing by

Listening to the wind of change

 

The world is closing in

Did you ever think

That we could be so close, like brothers

The future's in the air

I can feel it everywhere

Blowing with the wind of change

 

Take me to the magic of the moment

On a glory night

Where the children of tomorrow dream away

In the wind of change

 

Walking down the street

Distant memories

Are buried in the past forever

I follow the Moskva

Down to Gorky Park

Listening to the wind of change

 

Take me to the magic of the moment

On a glory night

Where the children of tomorrow share their dreams

With you and me

Take me to the magic of the moment

On a glory night

Where the children of tomorrow dream away

in the wind of change

 

The wind of change

Blows straight into the face of time

Like a stormwind that will ring the freedom bell

For peace of mind

Let your balalaika sing

What my guitar wants to say

 

Take me to the magic of the moment

On a glory night

Where the children of tomorrow share their dreams

With you and me

Take me to the magic of the moment

On a glory night

Where the children of tomorrow dream away

In the wind of change

It's not a place

It's a yearning

It's not a race

It's a journey

 

It's not an act

It's attraction

It's not a style

It's an action

 

It's a dream for the waking

It's a flower touched by flame

It's a gift for the giving

It's a power with a hundred names

 

Surge of energy, spark of inspiration

The breath of love is electricity

Maybe Time is bird in flight

Endlessly mocking

Here we come out of the cradle

Endlessly rocking

Endlessly rocking

 

It's a hand

That rocks the cradle

It's a motion

That swings the sky

 

It's method on the edge of madness

It's a balance on the edge of a knife

It's a smile on the edge of sadness

It's a dance on the edge of life

 

Endlessly r o c k i n g

Johnny, take a walk with your sister the moon

Let her pale light in, to fill up your room.

You've been living underground, eating from a can

You've been running away from what you don't understand.

 

She's slippy, you're sliding down.

She'll be there when you hit the ground.

 

It's alright, it's alright, it's alright.

She moves in mysterious ways.

It's alright, it's alright, it's alright.

She moves in mysterious ways, oh.

 

Johnny, take a dive with your sister in the rain

Let her talk about the things you can't explain.

To touch is to heal, to hurt is to steal.

If you want to kiss the sky, better learn how to kneel

On your knees, boy!

 

She's the wave, she turns the tide

She sees the man inside the child.

 

It's alright, it's alright, it's alright.

She moves in mysterious ways.

It's alright, it's alright, it's alright.

She moves in mysterious ways, yeah, oh, ah.

 

Lift my days, light up my nights, oh.

 

One day you'll look back, and you'll see

Where you were held now by this love.

While you could stand there,

You could move on this moment

Follow this feeling.

 

It's alright, it's alright, it's alright.

She moves in mysterious ways.

It's alright, it's alright, it's alright.

She moves in mysterious ways.

 

Move you, spirits move you

Move, spirits 'its move you, oh yeah.

Does it move you?

She moves with it.

Lift my days, and light up my nights, oh.

Sick at heart and lonely,

Deep in dark despair

Thinking one thought only-

Where is she tell me where

And if she says to you

She don't love me

Just give her my message

Tell her of my plea

 

And I know if she had me back again

Well I would never make her sad

I've gotta heart full of soul

 

She's been gone such a long time

Longer than I can bear

But if she says she wants me

Tell her that I'll be there

And if she says to you

She don't love me

Just give her my message

Tell her of my plea.

Mama, they try and break me

 

The window burns to light the way back home

A light that warms no matter where they've gone

They're off to find the hero of the day

But what if they should fall by someone's wicked way?

 

Still the window burns

Time so slowly turns

And someone there is sighing

Keepers of the flames

Do you feel your name?

Did you hear your babies crying?

 

Mama, they try and break me

Still they try and break me

 

Excuse me while I tend to how

I feel

These things return to me that still seem real

Now, deservingly, this easy chair

But the rocking stopped by wheels of despair

 

Don't want your aid

But the fist I make

For years can't hold or feel

No, I'm not all me

So please excuse me while I tend to how I feel

 

But now the dreams and waking screams

That ever last the night

So build the wall, behind it crawl

And hide until it's light

So can you hear your babies crying now?

 

Still the window burns

Time so slowly turns

And someone there is sighing

Keepers of the flames

Did you feel your names?

Did you hear your babies crying?

 

But now the dreams and waking screams

That ever last the night

So build a wall, behind it crawl

And hide until it's light

So can't you hear your babies crying now?

 

Mama, they try and break me

Mama, they try and break me

Mama they try

Mama they try

You can see her

Whenever it rains

From Rome to New Orleans

Dancing on the graves

Burden by the heart

She loves her sunglasses after dark

And every single day her little life falls apart

 

She's out to look so macabre and alone

She's close to hook on her dying

 

Just like a gothic girl

Lost in the darken world

My lil' gothic girl

Darkerside of jewel are your razorcuts for real, baby

 

You can see

She's on her road to ruin

Stigmata from crucifiction

On her pale white skin

Tribal pagan art

She loves her tattooed Egyptian mark

And every single day her love will tear us apart

 

She's out to look so macabre and alone

She's close to hook on her dying

 

Just like a gothic girl

Lost in the darken world

My lil' gothic girl

Always so dramatic, Christ, I want you, gothic girl

Lost in the darken world

My lil' gothic girl

Darkerside of jewel are your razorcuts for real, baby

Well I won't back down, no I won't back down

you could stand me up at the gates of hell

but I won't back down

 

Gonna stand my ground, won't be turned around

and I'll keep this world from draggin' me down

gonna stand my ground and I won't back down

 

Hey baby, there ain't no easy way out

hey I will stand my ground

and I won't back down

 

Well I know what's right, I got just one life

in a world that keeps on pushin' me around

but I'll stand my ground and I won't back down

 

Hey baby there ain't no easy way out

hey I will stand my ground

and I won't back down

No, I won't back down

California's been good to me

Hope it don't fall into the sea

Sometimes you got to trust yourself

It ain't like anywhere else

It ain't like anywhere else

 

There's time to roll, I'm all done

It's time we better hit the road

I got work later on

It's time we better hit the road

 

California's been good to me

Hope it don't fall into the sea

Sometimes you got to save yourself

It ain't like anywhere else

It ain't like anywhere else

 

Sundown, red skies

Nobody's been around

Sundown, blue eyes

I kinda like this party town

 

California's treated me good

I pray to God that the hills

Don't fall into the sea

Sometimes you got to trust yourself

It ain't like anywhere else

It ain't like anywhere else

It ain't like anywhere else

Eddie waited til he finished high school

He went to Hollywood, got a tattoo

He met a girl out there with a tattoo too

The future was wide open

 

They moved into a place they both could afford

He found a night club he could work at the door

She had a guitar and she taught him some chords

The sky was the limit

 

Into the great wide open

Under them skies of blue

Out in the great wide open

A rebel without a clue

 

The papers said Ed always played from the heart

He got an agent and a roadie named Bart

They made a record and it went in the chart

The sky was the limit

 

His leather jacket had chains that would jingle

They both met movie stars, partied and mingled

Their A&R man said, "I don't hear a single."

The future was wide open

It was nearly summer, we sat on your roof,

Yeah, we smoked cigarettes and we stared at the moon,

I showed you stars you never could see.

It couldn't been that easy to forget about me.

 

Time meant nothing, anything seemed real.

Yeah, you kissed like fire and you made me feel

Like every word you said was meant to be.

It couldn't been that easy to forget about me.

 

Baby, even the losers, get lucky sometimes.

Baby, even the losers, keep a little bit of pride, they get lucky sometimes.

 

Two cars park on the overpass, rocks hit the water like broken glass.

I shoulda known right then it was too good to last,

God, it's such a drag when your living in the past.

Baby, even the losers, get lucky sometimes.

Even the losers, keep a little bit of pride, they get lucky sometimes.

At home

Drawing pictures

Of mountain tops

With him on top

Lemon yellow sun

Arms raised in a V

Dead lay in pools of maroon below

Daddy didn't give attention

To the fact that mommy didn't care

King Jeremy the wicked

Ruled his world

Jeremy spoke in class today

Jeremy spoke in class today

Clearly I remember

Pickin' on the boy

Seemed a harmless little f**k

But we unleashed a lion

Gnashed his teeth

And bit the recessed lady's breast

How could i forget

He hit me with a surprise left

My jaw left hurtin

Dropped wide open

Just like the day

Like the day i heard

Daddy didn't give affection

And the boy was something mommy wouldn't wear

King jeremy the wicked

Ruled his world

Jeremy spoke in class today

Jeremy spoke in class today

Try to forget this...

Try to erase this...

From the blackboard.

Could've tuned in, tuned in, but he tuned out

Bad time

Alone in a corridor

Waiting, locked out

He got up outta there, ran for hundreds of miles

Made it to the ocean, had a smoke in a tree

Wind rose up, set him down on his knee

 

Wave came crashing like a fist to the jaw

Delivered him wings, "Hey, look @ me now"

Arms wide open with the sea as his floor

 

Oh he's.. flying

Whole

 

Floated back down cause he wanted to share

The key to the locks on the chains he saw

Everywhere

First he was stripped, then he was stabbed

By faceless men, well f*ckers

He still stands

 

And he still gives his love, he just gives it away and the love he receives is the love that is saved

And sometimes is seen a strange spot in the sky

A human being that was given to fly

Where will you be when you're not here

How many lives in this earth time

You are my soul and this you are

Two souls intertwined that's what we are

 

We can we walk hand in hand

All the life

Be the one everything to me

You I am dreaming

We have lived and known before I feel it

 

Where will you lie

 

When will I know

When you are gone

Where I be and I will miss you

We are this love in this life

Two souls intertwined like once before

See this meeting, hand in hand

Every life

Be the one everything to me

You are my feeling

 

No need to fear this love of life

We are the truth of every earth life

No need to fear this life at all

We are the sun and everlasting life

Where will you be hearing this song

How many lives in this earth time

You are my soul and this you are

You are my soul and this you are

 

Where will you be

Dear God,

Hope you got the letter,

And I pray you can make it better down here.

I don't mean a big reduction in the price of beer,

But all the people that you made in your image,

See them starving on their feet,

'Cause they don't get enough to eat

 

From God,

I can't believe in you.

 

Dear God,

sorry to disturb you,

but I feel that I should be heard loud and clear.

We all need a big reduction in amount of tears,

And all the people that you made in your image,

See them fighting in the street,

'Cause they can't make opinions meet,

About God,

I can't believe in you.

 

Did you make disease, and the diamond blue?

Did you make mankind after we made you?

And the devil too!

 

Dear God,

Don't know if you noticed,

But your name is on a lot of quotes in this book.

Us crazy humans wrote it, you should take a look,

And all the people that you made in your image,

Still believing that junk is true.

Well I know it ain't and so do you,

Dear God,

I can't believe in,

I don't believe in,

 

I won't believe in heaven and hell.

No saints, no sinners,

No Devil as well.

No pearly gates, no thorny crown.

You're always letting us humans down.

The wars you bring, the babes you drown.

Those lost at sea and never found,

And it's the same the whole world 'round.

The hurt I see helps to compound,

that the Father, Son and Holy Ghost,

Is just somebody's unholy hoax,

And if you're up there you'll perceive,

That my heart's here upon my sleeve.

If there's one thing I don't believe in...

 

It's you,

Dear God.

Sweetness, sweetness I was only joking

When I said I'd like to smash every tooth

In your head

 

Oh ... sweetness, sweetness, I was only joking

When I said by rights you should be

Bludgeoned in your bed

 

And now I know how joan of arc felt

Now I know how joan of arc felt, oh

As the flames rose to her roman nose

And her walkman started to melt

Oh ...

 

Bigmouth, la ... bigmouth, la ...

Bigmouth strikes again

I've got no right to take my place

In the human race

How many times

Do we tire of all the little battles

Threaten to call it quits

Tempted to cut and run

How many times

Do we weather out the stormy evenings

Long to slam the front door

Drive away into the setting sun

 

Keep going on till dawn

How many times must another line be drawn

We could be down and gone

But we hold on

 

How many times

Do we chaff against the repetition

Straining against the faith

Measured out in coffee breaks

How many times

Do we swallow our ambition

Long to give up the same old way

Find another road to take

 

Keep holding on so long

Cause theres a chance that we might not be so wrong

We could be down and gone

But we hold on

 

How many times

Do we wonder if it's even worth it

Theres got to be some other way

Way to get me through the day

 

Keep going on till dawn

How many times must another line be drawn

We could be down and gone

But we hold on

Hold on tight to your dreams

Hold on tight to your dreams

When you see your ship go sailing

When you feel your heart is breaking

Hold tight to your dreams

 

It's a long time to be gone

Time just rolls on and on

When you need a shoulder to cry on

When you get so sick of trying

Just hold tight to your dreams

 

When you get so down that you can't get up

And you want so much but you're all out of luck

When you're so downhearted and misunderstood

Just over & over & over you could

 

Accroches-toi a ton reve

Accroches-toi a ton reve

Quand tu vois ton bateau partir

Quand tu sents -- ton coeur se briser

Accroches-toi a ton reve

 

When you get so down that you can't get up

And you want so much but you're all out of luck

When you're so downhearted and misunderstood

Just over & over & over you could

 

Hold on tight to your dreams

Hold on tight to your dreams

When you see the shadows falling

When you hear that cold wind calling

Hold on tight to your dreams

 

Oh, yeah

Hold on tight to your dreams

Yeah, hold on tight

To your dreams
