Circle (Need to Need)

AAAA--------------------------
Throw me down the river
take me to the dogs
leave me in the cold ice
my little women of war
throw me down the river
take me to your home
tell me there will be sunshine
but don't throw me
Away--------------------------
     An end to this circle of confusion
     is what I really need to need
     been running 'round in a haze
     you're all I really want to be
Running down the river
crashing wild eyed
will I hit my mark
should I even try
splashing through my life
letting time lead
pulling me through
don't take me
Away--------------------------
     An end to this circle of confusion
     is what I really need to need
     been running 'round in a haze
     I barely make it through the day---

Pot Head

Shoe laces were untied
took my hand and put inside
hand rubbing down her back
pulled on her bra and let it snap back
     Well if that's the way that you want to play
     I hope it won't come back to you
     some day--------------
     I've said what I've said and I've been where I've been
     I've seen what I saw and I know that I'll see it
     again-----------------
She wears skirts but never heels
likes the way the green grass feels
living on her own inside of a bone
the place ain't much but she calls it home
     Well I hope she wont see the anger in me
     I hope that one day I will be what I now know
     I'll be---------------
     before I die I need to know why
     people must hurt and someone like you
     must cry-----------------------------

Son

Thief in your soul, thief in your soul
thief in your soul, thief in your soul
the love that I gave you
the love that I gave you
is nothing to the love you stole
Son
Son
     As I toil with the frail pieces
     of my two decade puzzle
     I worry of waste
     yet waste away
     and the hands of the clock
     beat loud in my mind
     I'll dream of tomorrow
     Yet greatly fear today
The slow fading hum
of my star spangled drum
dies out today
dies as she comes
the light burns so bright
I flip through the night
Son
Her cold hands touch my face
and tell me I'm alright
there'll be no peace for you my son
no rest for you tonight
and then she closed the door
and leave me all alone
Ma
where have you gone
Thief in your soul
Thief in your soul
the love that I gave you
is nothing to the love you stole
Son

Mr. Sky

Well it seems to me that you've
cried wolf once before
now the deep blue skies
not so blue anymore
     but it's the blue I saw
     I now see in your eyes
     it's the blue I saw
     I once saw in the sky
Well you sit back and laugh
and tell me you own it
but something tells me
that you just went and stole it
the sky now grey
has something to say
he said his color was stolen from him
ripped right away
and he's pointing his cloudy finger at you
as you sit with your eyes glowing dead
in your dark little room
     But it's the blue I saw
     I now see in your eyes
     it's the blue I saw
     I once saw in the sky
Well you stand in the wind
and soak it all in
and you scream at the world
that you're ready to begin
but if the sun can't come up
and up and out and out
then neither will the people
that you seem to scream about
so you walk through your days
glowing in sunshine rays
and you hope to always keep it
as you kneel down to pray
and as the grass grows
and so does the show
well you smiley smile
but never let go
and you watch as you play
the struggle for day
do you think in the end
it's worth what you pay?
so right back home
you seem to always tread
and rest your eyes
on your soft feather bed
because they grow tired
as you lay back
and listen to the thunder crack
-He wants his color back--------

Song 5

Go home
and the bouncer in the back
will break another neck
while red flashes in his mind
it's just one more time
Go home
     Shall I look down through my Godly haze
     or shall I just stare into outer space
Go home
     Shall I look down through my Godly haze
     or shall I just stare into outer space
and the flashes I've seen
are just a taste of the dream
it's only one more time
Go home--------------
