1.
She seeks the purest truth Through the folly of youth Where no love can be found She lives for happiness Dresses up her best When nobody’s around In her home All her dreams are now her own The future’s yet unknown See her eyes, she don’t cry no more We are love, we are diamonds We are riches of the soul Calling out the corners Turning heart aches into gold We are dancing in the fires Chasing spirits in our dreams In a world of no solution Love, love reigns supreme Scars earned across the years On the back of tears This is not who you are Fate’s spinning out her thread Another dream in your head That you pulled from the stars And it’s true All the rest is up to you There’s a time when you must choose Dry your eyes, let the light shine through We are love, we are diamonds We are riches of the soul Calling out the corners Turning heart aches into gold We’ve been dancing in the fires Chasing spirits in our dreams In a world of no solution Love, love reigns supreme In a world of no solution Love, love reigns supreme Only love, only love reigns supreme

I gave you a Valentine made out of driftwood And it blew your mind, like only I could I’ve done everything wrong today Let’s not let reality get in our way Let me be wrong for you, like I know you want me to If you want me to, I’ll belong to you My love is true, even if I’m wrong for you If you want me to, I’ll belong to you I’ll always be true, even if I’m wrong for you I got to thinking that I’d just misunderstood Then you hung my undies on the line to the delight of the neighborhood You’re like sugar in my salt shaker But I’ll hold your hand ‘til you meet your maker Let me be wrong for you, like I know you want me to If you want me to, I’ll belong to you My love is true, even if I’m wrong for you If you want me to, I’ll belong to you I’ll always be true, even if I’m wrong for you Even when the wheels fall off the cart You’ve got the biggest piece of my heart As I fix what we wrecked I’ll always love and respect YOU (y-o-u, y-o-u) If you want me to, I’ll belong to you My love is true, even if I’m wrong for you If you want me to, I’ll belong to you I’ll always be true, even if I’m wrong for you You took that Valentine made out of driftwood Around to all your friends and bragged like you got something really good If we’re miserable together Sure beats talking about the weather Let me be wrong for you, like I know you want me to Let me be wrong for you, like I know you want me to

On the day this house was shuttered down There wasn’t anyone who built it around There used to be so much to do When there’s nothing you can change it changes you The paint is chippin’ and the planks are worn But they weren’t that way when my daddy was born I see fireflies in the pecan trees Daddy would put ‘em in a jar for me Come on over, be with me, we’ll watch her fall When it’s over, feel the love between these walls Water still rises when the wind wheel hums When the trough gets full, you see the birds still come And the roots still cling to the patient earth Waitin’ for the bank to deem its worth Waitin’ for the bank to deem its worth Come on over, be with me, we’ll watch her fall When it’s over, feel the love between these walls Come on over, be with me, we’ll watch her fall And when it’s over, feel the love between these walls (between these walls)
4.
I’m up in the air Tryin’ not to care About the pain the heart can bring I don’t know a thing about love I’m torn in two I don’t know what to do I’m up and then I’m down and I’ve found I don’t know a thing about love I love to be alone But then I miss you so (uh huh) But then when you’re around I can’t wait for you to go Don’t want a fling Don’t need no ring I guess I’ll keep swingin’ on this swing I don’t know a thing about love I love to be alone But then I miss you so (yes she does) But then when you’re around I can’t wait for you to go Don’t know a thing about love Don’t know a thing about love Don’t know a thing about love Ooooh
5.
Love is a game, there are so many players Love is a game, there are so many cheaters Love is a game, what more can I say Love is a game, you’ve just gotta play There are no pieces, there are no boards There are no rules, all is fair in love and war There are no champions, there are no awards Still, love is a game Do not collect $200, do not pass “Go” Do not spin the wheel on the famous game show There are no masters, there are no pros Still, love is a game Love is a game, there are so many players Love is a game, there are so many cheaters Love is a game, what more can I say Love is a game, you’ve just gotta play There are no head starts, there are no givens There are no trophies, there are no ribbons There are no podiums to stand upon Still, love is a game Love is a game, there are so many players Love is a game, there are so many cheaters Love is a game, what more can I say Love is a game, do you wanna play?

7.
We choose to do things We play our part Not because it’s easy But because it’s hard My heart is grounded But I am drawn To the horizon To the dawn I am ready To take the leap To cast off this chain of gravity We bear the burden When I answer the call Don’t be afraid, I won’t fall Power attraction Love determination Solitary action Magnificent desolation I hear the countdown (3) Time is near (2) I’m breaking through the atmosphere (1) (Liftoff) Planet earth is turning blue An unbelievable view Power attraction Love determination Solitary action Magnificent desolation Power attraction Love determination Solitary action Magnificent desolation Power attraction Love determination Solitary action Magnificent desolation

Are you aware How less I could care Your colors draw me to you Though I feel it, do you? There aren’t any words There’s more you deserve There’s a force you cannot see What your grey eyes do to me Everything can change in a moment Everything can change in a moment Taking your hand (Play the fool somehow) What does it matter (Waltz into the room) You wonder what to make of me While I wonder where you’re taking me (In her glassy colored hair) Gravity holds (Everybody stares) Objects together But of all the laws of nature Gravity’s strong, but love is greater Everything can change in a moment Everything can change in a moment Everything can change in a moment Everything can change in a moment Here I am in all my intended finery Steady hand, tempered man, I dare you to fire at me Oh, I loved you, how I cared for you and only you (She finds the fool in the room) And then you left my heart in shards, in shiny pieces of colored parts (And she hangs him out to dry) In the wake of what I once believed collecting hues and frequencies (And she buries him alive, my love it was lovely seeing through you) Reflecting out beyond my dreams everything can change it seems (My heart is yours to break, you can burn me at the stake) Everything can change in a moment Everything can change in a moment Everything can change in a moment Everything can change in a moment Everything can change in a moment

Why is life so hard? Why is life so hard? Oh, why is life so hard?

Before I met you Somehow I never knew that I Was missing a piece Of myself And I, I was content with my life I, I was at peace with myself And I, I wasn’t looking for anyone When our eyes met Across the room I finally knew That now and forever We’re better together Now, when I feel lost and alone I can turn to you right beside me Now and forever We’re better together When our eyes met Across the room I finally knew That now and forever We’re better together When our eyes met Across the room I finally knew That now and forever We’re better together

So late after sun down?

No kitchen musicals Filling up the halls And filling up my heart with glee No whiskey in my mouf, like a boyd No panther spray, no more days No more doughnuts No Sabbath hoodie on the floor A different name on the door Room 121 just ain’t the same no more (Will you still be mine) Vee is for Valentine (Will you still be mine) So where are you, my snorkel dorkel doo?

15.
Tidal Wave 04:27
Each and every time I dance, I am freed The gift of flight, electricity Leave behind the rules of man, they can’t touch me Like gravity, caught in the breeze, the breeze All that I see is blur, I can’t find the lines My balance is tipped to the side I know I’m going blind, the sight leaves my eyes This sickness is taking my mind, to make me wild Cast away Tidal wave Lost for days Cast away Tidal wave Lost for days and days Wake up you’re taken from your home and your dreams Your favorite doll got ripped at the seams Can’t find a single word, I can’t even breathe It’s crippling, this goddamn disease That’s eating me Cast away Tidal wave Lost for days Cast away Tidal wave Lost for days Cast away Tidal wave Lost for days Cast away Tidal wave Lost for days Cast away by a tidal wave Lost for days And days and days and days
16.
Your manifest read idle wild by Mississippi way Upbound from the Delta mouth For ten and some odd days None of us saw ya comin’ But then all, all of a sudden The behemoth of your begging heart was there then it was gone You were smilin’ You seemed fine None of us could see behind Your oxidizing lies Oh my love my love Oh my love is gone away Oh my love my love Oh my love is gone away Oh my love my love Oh my love is gone away Oh my love my love Oh my love is gone away The sextant measured Bellatrix by Betelgeuse’s way Forty tons of methadone and trendin’ toward decay The sickness that you smuggled through Doldrums and dismay Dead reckoning and mystery You left us in your wake You were smilin’ You seemed fine None of us could see behind Your oxidizing lies Oh my love my love Oh my love is gone away Oh my love my love Oh my love is gone away Oh my love my love Oh my love is gone away Oh my love my love Oh my love is gone away
17.
Bouquets of flowers, a couple of hours Training wheel bike rides, with band-aids for falls Sometimes the best way of saying “I love you” Is saying nothing at all Kisses on cheeks, no matter how small A friend you’ve been missing for weeks, makes a call Sometimes the best way of saying “I love you” Is saying nothing at all Making the time just to be there Having a moment to share Making the time just to be there Taking a moment to care Safety from danger like fortress’ walls Smile from a stranger, that makes you feel tall Sometimes the best way of saying “I love you” Is saying nothing at all Sometimes the best way of saying “I love you” Is saying nothing at all
18.
Get Lost 03:57
My heart is not a trap My hands are not chains I would never try to Ever hold you down Lady Wisdom, She certainly lit your way ‘Cause you gotta get lost You gotta get lost Before you’re found Your wingspan is wide like A 747 in flight Driven by the wind, but I know you’ll be back sometime tonight I can feel your heartbeat Across a million miles You gotta get lost You gotta get lost Before you’re found Chaos is reigning (reigning) But I promise you this You’ll find your way back home Whenever we kiss When the missing pieces get put back together You might be surprised to discover You gotta get lost You gotta get lost Before you’re found Before you’re found Now you’re found Found Ooooo Ooooo You gotta get lost You gotta get lost You gotta get lost You gotta get lost
19.
The sigh that makes light of your troublesome life Oh may we, oh may we, oh may we all moan On our own The tangerine spark that brings warmth in the dark Oh may we, oh may we, oh may we all moan On our own Ahhh This, this is the kiss, the kiss I imagined Oh may we, oh may we, oh may we all moan Oh may we, oh may we, oh may we all moan Oh may we, oh may we, oh may we, oh may we, oh may we, oh may we, oh may we, oh may we, oh may we, oh may we, oh may we all moan On our own
20.
Try 04:49
This is what it looks like When the fickle hand of time Leads us through our innocence And then it turns unkind Nothing could affect us We’d made a deal with Providence We prayed that you’d protect us From the elements So how can I just leave you now To die on solid land Ain’t a matter of foundation It’s a matter of the man This will be my memory The last I keep of you Something that I loved so much But I can’t hold on to Try to keep living Try to catch the light Try to keep giving You’ll be alright He built you in Wisconsin Back in 1922 As Grandad was so fond of sayin’ “No other state would do” He had left the winter’s bite On another continent That he had to have his Northern Lights Was no coincidence I feel that I’ve betrayed you In light of all he’d done ‘Cause I shall never pass you down Like my father to his son So I pray you catch a young man’s eye And he paints you white again I hope you know how hard I’ve tried Good luck to you old friend Try to keep living Try to catch the light Try to keep living Try to catch the light Try to keep living Try to catch the light Try to keep giving You’ll be alright

There’s lots of falling in love There’s lots of tripping and stumbling, going head over heels There’s lots of taking the plunge Instead of working into how they feel I’ve had enough Of taking a bad step and taking a fall With things like love Maybe the best choice is taking a stroll I’m done with falling in love, I’m done going both feet first It’s exciting, though, it hurts, hurts, hurts, hurts, hurts I’m done with falling head first, it just hurts too much This time I’m rising, I’m rising in love Pretending nothing was wrong Falling was never very good for the health I was too headstrong This time I know better and I’m pacing myself I’m done with falling in love, I’m done going both feet first It’s exciting, though, it hurts, hurts, hurts, hurts, hurts I’m done with falling head first, it just hurts too much This time I’m rising, I’m rising in love Rising in love Rising in love Rising, rising, rising, rising, rising Rising, rising, rising, rising, rising Rising, rising, rising, rising, rising Rising, rising, rising, rising in love

I fell in love with a girl At the county fair With love in her eyes And fire red hair The boys all ask her “Will you be mine” But she’s got bigger dreams And hills to climb She loves the earth The birds and the bees The sun up above The rocks and the trees The fresh cut green grass Under her feet She loves the earth But she don’t love me I wrote her a note On Valentine’s Day Shared all thoughts That were too hard to say She thanked me as she read it And she flashed me a grin Then she threw it into The recycling bin She loves the earth The birds and the bees The sun up above The rocks and the trees The fresh cut green grass Under her feet She loves the earth But she don’t love me Well, I felt like dirt So I laid on the ground I started to connect With the earth all around The tickle of the grass The sun’s embrace Kisses from the wind All over my face The song of the river Sang me to sleep I had a revelation In a crazy dream I was one with the earth And all the stars in the sky So much beauty That it made me cry Now I’m one with the earth The birds and the bees One with the sun The rocks and the trees The fresh cut green grass Under my feeeet Weeelll, If she loves the earth Then she’s gotta love me She loves the earth The birds and the bees The sun up above The rocks and the trees The fresh cut green grass Under her feet She loves the earth So she’s gotta love me She loves the earth So she’s gotta love me She loves the earth So she’s gotta love me
31.
When we first met You really blew my mind Sparks were flying like I’d never seen Beautiful disaster I couldn’t run away faster Just had time to duck my head and run When we fell in love It all just fell to pieces A scattered trail of carnage left behind Just like twin towers And those evil axis powers Matches, dynamite, and gasoline Damn cryin’ shame We drove ourselves insane And our love exploded into flames Damn cryin’ shame There’s no one else to blame I’ll have another drink to dull the pain Eyes that were true blue But there’s caution tape around you A big black cloud that follows you around You stole my dog You stole my truck Money and the booze, don’t give a fuck You stole a kiss and then you stole my heart Damn cryin’ shame We drove ourselves insane And our love exploded into flames Damn cryin’ shame There’s no one else to blame I’ll have another drink to dull the pain Now you tell ‘em how it’s done Lookin’ back on it now Guess we made it through somehow Given the chance I wouldn’t change a thing After all these years Of heartache, blood and tears I might go dig up that wedding ring Damn cryin’ shame We drove ourselves insane And our love exploded into flames Damn cryin’ shame There’s no one else to blame I’ll have another drink to dull the pain

Tell me what your problem is All I want is the love Tell me what your problem is Got my guns but I don’t want to use ‘em Tell me what the problem is Waste me down to skeleton Tell me what the problem is I’ll be there if you show me where to run But… I can’t afford to be with a man who’s gone mad I can’t afford to be with a man who sees so red I can’t afford to be with a man who don’t understand I can’t afford to be with a man And his madness Tell me what your problem is I promise that I’m still in love Tell me what your problem is Silence – I brace for the waves to come Tell me what the problem is I don’t want to give up Tell me what the problem is Setting sun on the addict and the drug ‘Cause I can’t afford to be with a man who’s gone mad I can’t afford to be with a man who sees so red I can’t afford to be with a man who don’t understand I can’t afford to be with a man And his madness This is madness This is madness This is madness This is madness (This is madness This is madness)
