One way or another I won't let you down
One chance in a million when it comes around
When love comes around

Just as if the sun could ever stop itself
Indifferent to the blue that dons the sky
Could you see the wind denied of its own will?
As sure as water feeds the fire's light

"When Love Comes Around" by Tara Nevins

"And I ran.
I ran so far away.
I just ran.
I ran all night and day.
I couldn't get away.

A cloud appears above your head.
A beam of light comes shining down on you.
Shining down on you.

The cloud is moving nearer still.
Aurora borealis comes in view.
Aurora comes in view."

-- "I Ran (So Far Away)" by A Flock Of Seagulls

It was all about acceleration
all for notoriety
all about the destination
driven by my own abilities

the rockets shattered, screamed, and then fell away
lift this juggernaut into the sky
radio waves in the frozen night
spelling I miss you

Oh...tell me...
Charity dance with me
Turn me around tonight
Up though spiral staircase
To the higher ground

Slide show see side town
Coca-cola football radio radio radio waves...

Put out your hands and you fall through the window
And clawing at nothing you drop through the void
Your terrified screams are inaudible drowned
In the spiral ahead and consumed in the shape

The spiraling shape will make you go insane
But everyone wants to see that groovy thing.

Tell me baby cause I need to know now just because

and I can't wait to get off work
and see my baby
she said she'd leave the porch lite
on for me
I'm disheveled, I'm disdainful
I'm distracted and it's painful
but this job sweeping up here is
gainfully employing me tonight.

Someday I will return
It will be none too soon
Jump off the front porch
Land on the crescent moon
Until then these fancy dreams
Are for another mind
Everything seems to want to hurt this time

But I threw you the obvious
Just to see if there's more behind the
Eyes of a fallen angel
Eyes of a tragedy

Here I am expecting just a little bit
Too much from the wounded

But I see
See through it all
See through
See you

when you least expect
where you most regret it
girls they don't understand
why i love my friends
more than them

needs to put an end to them

I could never take it, I could never make it
I could never fake or shake or break the way I feel about your attitude
Frank wants lower labor as your Cain murders Able
Under the table you're unstable, it's not me that's being rude
I can see that you're a racist
You're one sad soul
I'm turning away
I want you to know: I'm not like YOU !

She feeds him well his concerns

And remembers being small

Take these chances
Place them in a box until a quieter time

X Girlfriend called me up
Alone and desperate
On the prison phone
They want... to give her 7 years
For being sad

I love all of you
Hurt by the cold
So hard and lonely too

Tilling my own grave to keep me level
jam another dragon down the hole
digging to the rhythm and echo of a solitary siren
one that pushes me along and leaves me so

Desperate and ravenous
Im so weak and powerless over you

Pale angel go away
come again some other day
devil has my ear today
ill never hear a word you say
promised i would find a little (wellness)
and some piece of mind
whatever just as long as i dont feel so

The seasons change, change without me
I remain, in shadows growing wings
The spirit song, still surrounds me
In refrain, in shadows growing wings

Like an Angel with two broken wings
Reach to the sky again
Like a Devil, meant for better things
I will find my place on high

We go crying, we come laughing
Never understand the time we're passing
Kill for money, die for love
Whatever was God thinking of?

Could be the famine
Could be the feast
Could be the pusher
Could be the priest
Always ourselves we love the least
That's the burden of the angel/beast

I kissed a drunk girl
I kissed a drunk girl, yes I did
I kissed a drunk girl on the lips
I let my guard down
How could I have been so dumb
Her eyes were open
I know I am not the one
I know I am not the one
I know I am not the one

I kissed a drunk girl
Why do I do these things I do to myself
I kissed a drunk girl
I’m sure I could’ve been anybody else

I look at the TV
Everybody's going crazy right in front of me
From the talk shows to the cop shows to the news
Now I choose my poison with my own remote control
There's no control

And everyone I see is sinking
Getting deeper in the water they don't know
The ship 's about to go
ANd I don't wanna go

And all the fears you hold so dear
Will turn to whisper in your ear
And you know what they say might hurt you
And you know that it means so much
And you don't even feel a thing

to lie here and die among the sorrows
adrift among the days
for everything i ever said
and everything i've ever done is gone and dead
as all things must surely have to end
and great loves will one day have to part

Let me take you to the herding ground,
Where all good men are trampled down,
Just to settle a bet that could not be won,
Between a prideful father and his son.

Well you guard me now for I can’t see,
A reason for this suffering and this long misery.
What if every living soul could be upright and strong?
Well, then I do imagine there will be
Sorrow .
Yeah there will be
Sorrow .
And there will be
Sorrow , no more.

(Suicide)
The spirit was freedom and justice
And it's keepers seem generous and kind
It's leaders were supposed to serve the country
But now they won't pay it no mind
'Cause the people grew fat and got lazy
And now their vote is a meaningless joke
They babble about law and order
But it's all just an echo of what they've been told
Yeah, there's a monster on the loose
It's got our heads into a noose
And it just sits there watchin'

Have to sing about the book I read
I'm embarrassed to admit it--hit a soft spot in my heart when
I found out you wrote the book I read, so

Feel my fingers as they touch you arms, I'm
Spinning around, but I feel alright
The book I read was in your eyes....
