"Oh Hallelujah..." what I said to the stars
Every night that I thought you might have crashed you car
"Oh Hallelujah..." what I said to myself
Every day that I thought you might have fucked someone else
And how I love the way you smile at me
With those fangs that you show for teeth
You said that I was full of shit
But what's so wrong with that?
Shopping malls and mothballs
Cheap figure eights and a couple of dates
Broken dream
Broken knees
Love is forever but sometimes death seems better...
Cigarettes and barrettes
Late night drives and the rest of our lives
Simple plans
Made romance
Death is forever but sometimes love is better...

Caroline, you've gone and confused my mind with the ways that you wander
Your family's not there for you now and alone you go under
I recall lonely nights talking until two about the ideas you wonder
Are out there still, waiting to be discovered
And how they all wait alone
Waiting to be called
Home ain't quite the same anymore
All the flowers are dead that once lead to your door
And now dollar bills shingle the shack in which you shave
And tho' the sun is still red it slaps coldly on your face
And I've done you wrong
With this song that does you wrong
So I color my hands in black and blue
And they train me to see the best light for you
But it does you wrong
Yeah it does you wrong
Cause the chords can't remind
And words can't try to hide
The simple mistake I think you make
Even your best man won't miss you like I do

You and Me at 53
01:41
|

Make no mistake this is now wave of understanding
And I'm looking to fight
My room runs circles and there's no way that I'm standing
By myself tonight
Because our little babies have gone away
And our little babies are gone
Our best times aren't coming back again
Our best friends are better off the same
Out best lines, well they're our best lines
You and me we weren't like this at 23
I could play guitar and you could sing
We were free and you actually spoke to me
My how you could sing...

Those Long Arms

I know your stupid girlfriends they all act so cold about those whores
I know your stupid boyfriends they all act so bold
They know how...
And you...
I know it's stupid of me to act so old
But those eyes are on me and I know that so...
They know how long you hide away
They know how long...

Yours Recklessly

When fall breaks back into winter I will love you most of all, my shore
But it will remind me of that song that makes you uncomfortable
And you'll spray and spit and ebb and tide like those notes you adore
And it will leave me no choice but to see that which I am able
Out beyond the waves I can see your grave
And sons they sing about their father's one-armed demands
And daughters are twice screwed up as they howl about their ovaries and glands
But as I walk along your Jersey shore
I am told that the ways you once were are no more
And I realize that I am a revolving door
Of thoughts of the first great World War
When my grandfather swore and swore and swore
To see you once again and more
So for now pretend we're accomplices
Accomplishing an end
To return their love to the ones
They were bent by unfair love
And for that I shall be
Your recklessly

It's six a.m. and the sunlight is all to blame
When happiness is a four letter word you can't say
Ten minutes on and your further, further away
But you and I and the summer nights were the same
Off to work through the leaves that have fallen away
I see your name in mistakes I continue to make
Now only devils line the streets while I'm awake
But you and I and the autumn nights were the same
Out in the streets with my head full of smoke and of flame
My brightest hours are the ones where I remember your name
My darkest hours are the ones when I drink it away
But you and I and the winter nights were the same
Sarah's called and your secret is all the rage
You and your heart and the lives you continue to waste
Spring came at last and in time yes it moved away
Spring came at last and in time yes it moved away

Tune in Tokyo; Your wires must be crossed
Your secret is safe with me but the message is lost
I fall asleep to dreams of space tonight
Tonight I dream of space in the radio
Tune in Tokyo; Listen for the science of night
Swear by the stereo that this fight might be right
Deep space and outer space...

Your son-in-law won't run away
He'll only hesitate
He certainly knows how to wait
Your son-in-law won't run away
He'll only wish and wait
That he can fly away tomorrow
But if he did, flew away
(You'd be more likely to see snow in May)
But don't forget the words that he said
'Cause he'll probably be back tomorrow...

And so they got away
With all the games that they play
And you and I just stare at them
And wonder where we went wrong
And so they got away
And appeared in Time magazine
Famous, infamous and famous
And so they got away
And today is just another day

Mutilate Us
05:34

How many footsteps are you away from your door?
I spend all day building this home for you that you don't want anymore
The broken sink drips the hours away
It tells the story of how you refused to stay
It swears it's you and not me that's to blame
But I don't trust it no more
How many footsteps are you away from my door I meant?
How many footsteps 'till you are back inside my bed?
It's really sad and stupid yes, yes I know
But you are the one that I want
And you are the one that I love
And if we are the ones that will cross moutains for love
Then we are the ones that let love mutilate us
