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

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

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 RUN 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

Hey what's the big deal? Tell me how to FEEL 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. Johnny cash - ghostriders in the sky

I've got to keep running the course, I've got to keep running and win at all costs, I've got to keep going, be strong, Must be so determined and push myself on.

I am king of all I SEE, my kingdom for a voice Old man don't lay so still, you're not yet young There's time to teach, point to point 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 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.

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.

Here come the jesters, 1 2 3. 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. Your momma's callin' but you're having fun. You find your dancin' on the number 9 cloud. Put your hands together now, and sing it out loud. It's all part of my ROCK AND ROLL fantasy.

Your Daddy's in the gutter with the wretched and the poor, Your Momma's in the kitchen with a can of Cycle 4. There's garbage in the water and there's poison in the sky. I guess it won't be long before we're all gonna die.
