Walking like a prophet
Fortune teller
Claiming your fame

Cries out loud
Look at you

Selling your soul
In the aisle, smile
Ready

I'm paralysed,
Process information at the speed of light
I'm frozen
In motion
Desensitized
Over stimulated matter over mind
It's too bad
I have become
Comfortably dumb

I must confess,
Highly educated in my ignorance
Not stupid
Still lucid
Indifferent
Watching a world amuse itself to death
I'm muted
I have become
Comfortably dumb
I have become
Comfortably dumb

What? When?
Why? Where?
How come?
Who cares?
Knock, knock
Who's there?
No one
How come?
Who cares?

I have become
Comfortably dumb
I have become
Comfortably dumb

Take me away
So far away
So far away
Won't somebody
Take me away
Take
Take it all away
Take it, take, take it... Take it, take
				

Don't want to fall in love
Don't want to fall in love again
And you don't know where I've been
Don't want to fall in love again

I will not fall,
Is it a matter of love, or a matter of pride?
Can't stop a broken heart from bleeding
Don't make it harder than it has to be
Nothing worth love is ever easy
Love is never easy

So if you want my love tell me now
And if you need my love I'll show you how
Just open up your heart and let me love you
Learn to love again, learn to love again

Better to love and lose than never ever love at all?
So tell me something new, tell me why do fools fall?
Tell me why, yeah why do they fall?
Ain't a matter of love, it's a matter of pride

Can't stop a broken heart from bleeding
Don't make it harder than it has to be
Nothing worth love is ever easy
Love is never easy

So if you want my love tell me now
And if you need my love I'll show you how
Just open up your heart and let me love you
Learn to love again, learn to love again

I should have known it all along
I should have know that I...

Can't stop a broken heart from bleeding
Don't make it harder than it has to be
Nothing worth love is ever easy
Love is never easy

So if you want my love tell me now
And if you need my love I'll show you how
Just open up your heart and let me love you
Learn to love again, learn to love again

So if you want my love no need to ask
And if you need my love forget the past
Just open up your heart and let me love you
Learn to love again, learn how to love again
				

Your mamma told you,
Told you to stay away
Pappa done scold you girl,
Don't hear a word he say
He said,
Over my body
No star-crossed lover lay

You can run, I can hide
And we'll meet each other
On the other side
Don't you worry pretty baby
They'll never take us alive

Tell me you're leaving it,
Leaving it all behind
Better believe in me,
Never treat you unkind
(A little closer girl)
Come take my hand child
I'll love you
For a million miles

You can run, I can hide
And we'll meet each other
On the other side
Don't you worry pretty baby
They'll never take us alive

Save our souls, save our souls
Save our souls, save our souls

You better run, I gotta hide
And we'll meet each other
On the other side
Don't you worry pretty baby
They'll never take us alive

You better run, and I can hide
And we'll meet each other
On the other side
Don't you worry pretty baby
They'll never take us
Don't you worry pretty mamma
They'll never break us
Don't you worry pretty baby
They'll never take us alive
				

Hey, let me know, let me know
Let me know when you get there
Hey, so you got to go, you're leaving what a pity
Hey, take your time, take a life time,
Time to find out
The world is yours so go out and get it

And you run, when you know there's no escape
You can't hide from your mistakes
Should have known it all along

Hey, spinning round, spinning round
Paint the town as the world turn
Hey, hit the ground running round in the circles
Hey, nothing new, nothing new
Nothing new to discover
And you still haven't found what you're looking..for

And you run, when you know there's no escape
You can't hide from your mistakes
Should have known it all along

And you run, when you know there's no escape
You can't hide from your mistakes
Should have known it all along

So you run, never bothered to explain
Left me here with all the blame
Thought you wanted to be loved
				

As stories go,
This one's been told
Another heart broken,
Left out in the cold
With one variation,
The difference this time,
This one is mine,
Since you've been gone
You've stolen my heart
As for the rest of me
I've fallen apart
In my desperation
My only prayer
Handle with care

Cos I don't know
What to do
Wasting my time,
Wandering through
Wondering why
What's it all worth
My last hour on earth
My last hour

So in the end
You were the one
Something so right
Could never be wrong
Without hesitation
I'll tell you the truth
I'm still waiting for you

Cos I don't know
What to do
Wasting my time,
Wandering through
Wondering why
What's it all worth
My last hour on earth
My last hour

Cos I don't know
What to do
Wasting my time,
Wandering through
Wondering why
What's it all worth
It's worth everything
Yeah my everything is you
It's worth everything
Yeah my everything is you
It's worth everything
Yeah my everything
				

He speaks of meekness
Being no sign of weakness
Gently placing the flower in the gun
Well intended pacifism a naive idealism
Singing his favourite Lennon song
Bleeding heart insisting preach
The path of least resisting
Milk and honey rolling off of his tongue
War is not he answer turn the other cheek
And offer sacrificing on the altar of love

Flower man
Singing lets all
Give peace a chance
Flower man
Keep your head
Buried in the sand
Flower man
You're my enemy's
Best friend
Flower man
You misguided utopian

Peace in appeasing
Like it's always in season
Never needed to weather the storm
Betting on your better angels
Ignoring human nature in truth
Red tooth and in claw
Lion and lamb lay
In your land of make pretend
Forgetting every soldier and son
Lest you care
To measure all the blood
And the treasure
Must be something worth
Fighting for. No?
Is it worth fighting for?

Flower man singing
Lets all
Give peace a chance
Flower man
Keep your head
Buried in the sand
Flower man
You're my enemy's
Best friend

Is a well armed lamb

Ladies and gentlemen
I give you flower man

Love is on the way
Love is on the way
Or so they say

Let me introduce you to my time machine
See my suped up bird spread her golden wings
Going back in black through my neighbourhood
My main street middle class Hollywood

Jenny's all jet-set Purple Rain cassette
Looking like she was the queen of the 80's
And if I knew back then what I know right now
Yeah you know I'd be the king of the ladies

If I knew back then what I know right now
You know I'd be the king of the ladies
And if I knew back then what I know right now
There'd be no ifs, and buts and no maybes

Just an average Joe making minimum wage
Burger flipping on the beach
Instead of hitting the wave
When the girls walk by with their copper tone tan
Sucker punching the clocks, stop working for the man
Well there aint no cure for the summertime blues
Oh Candy, oh would you save me?

And if I knew back then what I know right now
Yeah you know I'd be the king of the ladies

If I knew back then what I know right now
You know I'd be the king of the ladies
And if I knew back then what I know right now
There'd be no ifs, and buts and no maybes
If I knew back then what I know right now
You know I'd be the king of the ladies
And if I knew back then what I know right now
There'd be no ifs, and buts and no maybes

I walked up to the dance in the High school gym
This girl with drop-dead legs, I'm moving in
You know must have been the DJ spinning Billy Jean
I tapped Nikki on the shoulder told dance with me
It's like that scene from Grease
The way we bumped to the beat
I had the girl give me the slip
She got away from me

Coz if I knew back then what I know right now
You know I'd have the pick of the ladies

If I knew back then what I know right now
You know I'd be the king of the ladies
And if I knew back then what I know right now
There'd be no ifs, and buts and no maybes
If I knew back then what I know right now
You know I'd be the king of the ladies
And if I knew back then what I know right now
There'd be no ifs, and buts and no maybes
If I knew back then what I know right now
You know I'd be the king of the ladies
And if I knew back then what I know right now
There'd be no ifs, and buts and no maybes
If I knew back then what I know right now
You know I'd be the king of the ladies
And if I knew back then what I know right now
There'd be no ifs, and buts and no maybes
				

Tell me there's no need to be afraid
They're only shadows cast, past this place
Where voices carry at the speed of sound
If I should cry before they lay me down

Sorry for the words, words I left unsaid
Sorry being one of the words I did forget
All the time we spent, wasted in the end
Every precious moment taken for granted
There in the corner of my mind
Lies the weight of my regret
Between the shadow and the light
Ghost you're in my head

Shelter from the storm when I sleep
There's comfort in the morn, a siren sings
If only for a moment, I can breathe
The thought of you comes crashing through on me

Sorry for the words, words I left unsaid
Sorry being one of the words I did forget
All the time we spent, wasted in the end
Every precious moment taken for granted
There in the corner of my mind
Lies the weight of my regret
Between the shadow and the light
Ghost you're in my head
Ghost you're in my head

Tell me there's no need to be afraid
They're only shadows cast past has played
Where voices carry at the speed of sound
If I should die before I lay me down

I'm sorry for the way, the way I treated you
A little bit too late, but if you only knew
I'd take away the pain, pain I put you through
I'd do it all again walking in your shoes

There in the corner of my mind
Lies the weight of my regret
Between the shadow and the light
Ghost you're in my head
Ghost you're in my head
				

Find your groove
Then drop the hammer
Overtake
But don't you kick
A leg out of bed
Gettin' loose
Don't keep it matted
A rooster tail
And you're never
Gonna qualify
Never gonna qualify
Slingshot
Gotta hit the apex
Sneak attack
Yeah
You are the the man
On the move
Dirty air
Hangin' in a vortex
Can you feel the rub?
It's a shootout as we

Slide it in
Never gonna qualify
Slide it in, no, no way

Don't become
An emotional wreck
Take it slow, pit row
You're moving to fast
They can read
Your telemetry
Get you in, Get you out
In less than fifteen
Stop
Get you some slicks
Nice and tight
Get your fine fresh rubber
Take the flag
And shake the champagne
All your lizards
Are waiting
And ready to play
Ready to play
				

Don't just sit there
And stare at me
Don't just sit there
And watch me bleed
I'm losing you and you
You're losing me
I'm tired
Of what we are
I'm tired
Of all the pain
I'm losing you and you
You're losing me

Face lies flat
I see my reflection
Download thoughts
But your files
Are corrupted

Don't just sit there
And stare at me
Don't just sit there
And watch me bleed
I'm losing you and you
You're losing me
I'm tired
Of what we are
I'm tired
Of all the pain
I'm losing you
And you
You're losing me

Time stands still
And your frozen
In motion
I held down
Your escape
But you're crashing
You're crashing

Don't just sit there
And stare at me
Don't just sit there
And watch me bleed
I'm losing you and you
You're losing me
I'm tired
Of what we are
I'm tired
Of all the pain
I'm losing you
And you
You're losing me

Don't just sit there
And stare at me
Don't just sit there
And watch me bleed
I'm losing you
And you
You're losing me
I'm tired
Of what we are
I'm tired
Of all the pain
I'm losing you
We're losing
We're losing
We're losing
				

She don't worry about tomorrow
Nothing further from her mind
She don't need to beg or borrow
Time is on her side
She like colouring the rainbow
Never paint between the lines
She like to chase away the shadow
Watch them run and hide

Kiss me in the morning
Before I open up my eyes
Would you kiss me in the morning
Sunrise

See her dancing on the water
Washing dreams upon the shore
Heaven wanting you to call her
Knocking at your door
She my centre of attention
Nothing further from my mind
Point me in the right direction
Sunshine shine your light

Would you kiss me in the morning
Before I open up my eyes
Would you kiss me in the morning
Sunrise alright

Sunrise kiss and I will follow
Sunrise shine your light
Sunrise filling up my hollow
Sunrise sunrise
Sunrise kiss and I will follow
Sunrise shine your light
Sunrise filling up my hollow
Sunrise sunrise sunrise
She helped me find my way
				

Heavy is the burden
That brings you
To your knees
Lost in the confusion
Of life's uncertainties
Feel you're suffocating
With every breath you take
Moment left remaining
Time for you to pray
Time for you to pray

Pray for peace
Pray for peace
Pray for peace
Pray for peace

Whirl wind
She's a-turning
The river's
On the rise
Suddenly surrounded
In the middle
Middle of her eye
Light precedes
The thunder trembles
Trembles and it shakes
The ground your feet
Are under
Time for you to pray
Time for you to pray

Pray for peace
Pray for peace
Pray for peace
Pray for peace
