I LOVE that song. [Smile]

In the howling wind comes a stinging rain
See it driving nails
Into the souls on the tree of pain
From the firefly, a red orange glow
See the face of fear
Running scared in the valley below

Bullet the blue sky
Bullet the blue sky
Bullet the blue
Bullet the blue

Unleash the armageddon
So all the children go to heaven
I sit by quiet still with their pictures on my eyes
You'll draw the guns you're given
Write down the words as written
And never disturb the presence of resurrection crutch
And it's about time
It's about drawing near
Blue skies bring tears
Blue skies bring tears

Blue skies bring tears - Smahshing pumpkins

I see a turning wheel
On a dusty track
Caught in the void and empty space
In between there and back
And the paradise of going somewhere
That's still so far away
Happy, boy you bet I am
Holding on to this smile for just as long as I can

Heaven

It's all bright in front
And it's all dark behind
Living for the now that's in between the bridges and the signs
And getting there is still a long long way to go
While the others dream
This is all I officially need to know
Happy, boy you bet I am
Holding on to this smile for just as long as I can

Heaven

The wheel is turning and you can’t slow down,
You can’t let go and you can’t hold on,
You can’t go back and you can’t stand still,
If the thunder don’t get you then the lightning will.

She runs through the streets
With her eyes painted red
Under black belly of cloud in the rain
In through a doorway she brings me
White gold and pearls stolen from the sea
She is raging
She is raging and the storm blows up in her eyes
She will suffer the needle chill
She is running to stand still

I want to hide
I want to tear down the walls
That hold me inside
I want to reach out
And touch the flame
Where the streets have no name

Don't leave me behind
I'm only two feet tall
I've got a lot to offer
The present is all I know

Hey could you wait for me
You're moving way too fast
If you could see what I see
You'd want to make this moment last

So much you try to take from me
I followed you obsessively too long
You make no sense with what you say
I've cut myself to get away
It hurts

Tell me how you feel
(I've changed my mind)
Tell me how you feel

Let me know I'm something to you

Hey what's the big deal?

I know where we boomeranged and fell from grace.
Point me to the stars I'm up for the chase.
I know where we fell on our face.
Jump with me.
You jump with me.

An old cowboy went RIDIN' out one dark and windy day, upon a ridge he rested as he went along his way, when all at once a mighty herd of red-eyed cows he saw, plowin' through the ragged skies, and up a cloudy draw.

There is a calm I haven't come to yet
I spend half my life figuring what comes next.
I'll finally WIN,
I'll finally WIN the prize.
That now my eyes see
A comics perfect timing squeezed.
The crushing force of memory
Erasing all I've been
The vanishing point appears

I am king of all I SEE, my kingdom for a voice
Old man don't lay so still, you're not yet young

Point observation, children carry reservations
Standing on the shoulders of giants leaves me cold
A mean idea to call my own, a hundred million birds fly away

Where were you when my heart broke?
I spilled my joy on the marble floor.
Where were you when the tears rolled?
Where were you? I'll never know.

Am I not where your feelings lie?
And are you not in my tribe?
And is it true, the love you've shown,
I'll never be able to make it on my own?

It's a sin that somehow,
Light is changing to shadow
And casting its shroud
Over all we have known
Unaware how the ranks have grown
Driven on by a heart of stone
We could find that we're all alone
In the dream of the proud

When I look back upon my life
It's always with a sense of shame
I've always been the one to blame
For everything I long to do
No matter when or where or who
Has one thing in common, too

It's a, it's a, it's a, It's a sin
It's a sin
Everything I've ever done
Everything I ever do
Every place I've ever been
Everywhere I'm going to
It's a sin

When the night is someone else's
And you're tryin' to get some sleep
When your thoughts are too expensive
To ever wanna keep
When there's all kinds of chaos
And everyone is walking lame
You don't even blink now, do you?
Don't even look away

So, I try to be like you
Try to feel it like you do
But without you, it's no use
I can't see what you see
WHEN I LOOK at the world

"This is the first and last time," he says
She fakes a smile and presses her hips into his
He keeps his hands pinned down at his sides
He's holding back from telling her
Exactly what it really feels like

He is the lamb, and she is the slaughter
She's moving way too fast, and all he wanted was to hold her
Nothing that he tells her is really having an effect
He whispers that he loves her, but she's probably only looking for....

Up the stairs - the station where the act becomes the art of growing up

So much more than he could ever give
A life free of lies and a meaningful relationship
He keeps his hands pinned at his sides
He waits for it to end, and the aching in his guts to subside.

You know the secret
but you never tell
You know the secret
but you keep it oh so well
Now baby, don't go
like a lamb to slaughter
I will fetch the wood
I will carry water
It's no chore it's no bother
I will fetch the wood
I will carry water

Secret Agent Man.
Secret Agent Man.
They've given you a number.
And taken away your name.

Beware of pretty faces that you find.
A pretty face may hide an evil mind.
Ooh be careful what you say.
Or you give yourself away.
Odds are you won't live to see tomorrow.

I threw away everything I had
Twist of life so cruel
And the outcome is so sad
In the lifetime of a fool

Now I walk this acre of pain
On the stepping stones of my loss
There's no way to return
When you burn every bridge that you cross

It's all part of my fantasy.
I've got the music
And I'll have to see the crowd.
Dancing in the eyes,
And singin' out loud.
Here come the dancers, one by one.

You find your dancin' on the number 9 cloud.
Put your hands together now, and sing it out loud.

when I accidentally stepped into an alternate dimension
and soon I was abducted by some aliens from space who kind of looked like Jamie Farr.

And so much skin
