Take what you can, like an army would the day before the war ends and you’ll make out like a bandit and there will never be a trial as long as you win, like you do, like you were trained to; an assassin wrapped in velvet yeah you cut me open.
Your eyes they hold the universe delivered as a message just to you, did I tell you that I was once in love with you one more thing I was addicted to, back then.
And when did you get out, were you the only, were you the only one who was left outside the cage that you made for your possessions, an assassin wrapped in velvet yeah you cut me open you….
Your eyes they hold the universe delivered as a message just to you, did I tell you that I was once in love with you one more thing I was addicted to, back then. Your eyes they hold the universe delivered as a message just to you, did I tell you that we were all in love with you one more thing we were addicted to, and I am addicted too.
I don’t have the answers, can’t you see this ain’t a game.
I’ve got heart like Monday morning and man I’ve got eyes like the grave.
And I’ve got pockets like a sinner, man I’m movin from payday to payday,
And nothing moves faster than time moves when you’re broke we hate to lose but we love to waste.
I’m jealous of the moonlight, it’s only job’s to light up the sky.
I’m leanin’ on an alibi and I’m dyin’ for that perfect life.
I knew an old man lived ‘till he was 85, he lived a simple life he said you love, pay taxes
and die. His best girl was the twinkle in his and she sparkled there ‘till the day she died.
I’m jealous of the moonlight, it’s only job’s to light up the sky.
I’m leanin’ on an alibi and I’m dyin’ for that perfect life.
I trace my life with photographs, look at the times I cried and laughed.
I see the growth of my years and remember why I hated it, I just can’t recall how it got so complicated
I’m jealous of the moonlight, it’s only job’s to light up the sky.
I’m leanin on an alibi and I’m dyin for that perfect life.
Heaven comes as advertised and I’m dying for that perfect life.
Good morning sleepy one, I hope you slept all right.
It's not the end of the world it's just the end of the night.
Good day busy one while you earn your keep.
It's not the end of the world it's just the start of the week.
Moon to sunlight, one last time.
Moon to sunlight, I guess you were never mine.
Good evening weary one, I hope your days work is done.
It's not the end of the world it's just a pause in the sun.
Good night tired one, I hope you sleep ok.
It's not the end of the world it's just the end of the day.
Moon to sunlight, one last time.
Moon to sunlight, I guess you were never mine.
So goodbye wonderful one although my heart might explode,
it's not the end of the world it's just the end of the road.
Bombs away, bombs away
Sexy beast you get what you wanna
Fill me un, you make me go 'pop'
I swallow what you go
But I don't forget the argument we had
El unico problema es la desigualdad
Ah mi amiga I got it bad
Conseguiremos la egualdad
The sun will shine again in time
We're off to get this party underway
Out of the way and we'll get it to be ok
Get on the bus, get on the bus
Gent on the bus with the best of us
We've all been babysitting baby elephants
Tailpipes, blades that wipe our
Minds away, minds away
It's ok when your mind's away
Pull up the truck, fill it right up
With gas we bought with napalm
The sun will shine again in time
We're off to get this party underway
Out of the way and we'll get it to be ok
Then you came to me the sexy one
Your body blocking out the sun
You said I was the only one
Deserved you
If you lay down for everyone
Just give them all a piece
The world will move you
And the sun will shine again in time
We're off to get this party underway
The sun will shine again in time
We're off to get this party underway
Out of the way and we'll get it to be ok
I wonder where you will sleep tonight, and I know I know I know I know, all my wondering just is not right. A fire contained in a book of spoken word, and I fear I fear I fear I fear I fear, it ain't so horrible, yeah.
We live and die, by the love we give. We live and die, we live and die.
I cannot take an offer of a ride to Mexico, but I'll follow follow follow the moons light bouncing from water to road and I hear everybody singing about their reflection but I don't see it my friend. I will never look at you again. I will never look at you again.
We live and die, by the love we give. We live and die, we live and die
Just when tomorrow ends and yesterday seems to have never happened. Today brings the filling in, of the lines I had begun tracing of you.
Caught you in the rain, down Santiago way storming out and then with a lazy pirouette you said “I don’t wait for nothing” you know I don’t wait for anything but I will wait for you. The road had washed away Tom Amos Dos Café as a temporary sun set it fell on me you said “I don’t wait for nothing” you know I don’t wait for anything but I will wait for you.
As sure as you’re a weapon I’ll be the one who lays you down, as sure as you’re uncertain I’ll be the one who stays around. As sure as you are poison I will be he one who drinks you down, as sure as the rain, as sure as the rain, as sure as all the rain down Santiago way, as sure as mystery can’t be left alone, you know I don’t wait for nothing, you know I don’t wait for anything but I , I will wait for you.
This it ain't no acid rain burning the ground, but I'll still complain.
It ain't no hurricae swimming thru the air, above our heads.
But it ain't no holiday, do you think that this is easy on me.
And I know this does not compare to the worlds tragedies,
But this is my own personal Cotastrophe.
No faceless Virus taking infected life but I cry for me.
Should be weeping over broken soliders not a broken heart.
But it ain't no holiday do you think that this is easy for me to say.
And I know this does not compare to the worlds tragedies,
But this is my own personal Cotastrophe.
This is my own personal Cotastrophe (repeated)
I’m a catastrophe
I’m just a fool on the radio
I don’t know when the feeling stopped
I don’t know if the buzz ever did wear off
You said you needed me
I was your third favourite celebrity
You could turn me on like a TV set
Then turn me down like we never met
I’ll kiss you once, I’ll kiss you again
But not so fast it’s better in
Slow motion baby
I’d be a fool if I let you go
Everything is better in slow motion baby
Watch how slow I can go
I’m a philosophy
Someone thought me up when they were desperate
Meet me down where the ocean stops
Tell me things that the TV thought
Kiss me once, I’ll kiss you again
But not so fast it’s better in
Slow motion baby
I’d be a fool if I let you go
Everything is better in slow motion baby
Watch how slow I can go
Another storm goes out of the East Coast
And all the yuppies in the middle go oh…
This aint no a typhoon
It’s just an afternoon
One fine day spent drowning in a mid-sized wave, oh…
I’m a catastrophe
I’m just a fool if you have to know
I wrote a love song for everyone
Who couldn’t be in love
I wrote a love song to myself
This is a love song
Just because your miles away doesn’t mean that this can’t happen, just sit back tell me your day and all the lines I write are traces of you.
Can you believe I’m sittin in an alley cryin my eyes out, waitin’ for the stars to ask “man are you allright”? Somewhere between sundown and last call I think of you every night.
When I’d leave you in the summer, you’d still love me in the fall, even when I was somewhere between righteous and dying and passed out in a bathroom stall.
I don’t have a lot of cash, but for a week it will do me well, I’ll live like a king without his princess alone in a 35 dollar a night motel.
Darlin’ I don’t mind the nights, because it brings me close to the days where there’s nothing left between us but the yellow lines and all the thing that I forgot to say.
If you could see me now, I’m still alive still alive so far, with an un-opened pack of cigarettes layin next to the phone and your picture layin’ next to my guitar.
I’ve been waiting to see you, so how have you been, you breath is a hurricane on my skin. You’re looking for answers and I’m looking for lines, you watching hr stars I’m watching your eyes.
The life that you wanted will take some time but the world is still spinning around outside, in a way I am yours in a way I’m mine, Adeline. Ben waiting to see you, so how have you been? Your touch is an earthquake on my skin. You’re off in the distance and I struggle behind, you’ve nothing but hope I’ve nothing but time. The life that you wanted will take some time but the world is still spinning around outside, in a way I am yours in a way I’m mine, in a way I am yours in a way I’m mine, Adeline.
Hay una Guerra en mi corozon and it’s egging me eggin’ me eggin’ me on, a moth is flown into your home and it’s beggin’ you not to go on. If they won’t let you in they won’t let you in they won’t have you hanging around this time, this time, Adeline. Things will be fine. This will be fine. Things will be fine, we will Adeline.
Don’t believe a word I say, it’s just a line from a love song that I’m writing. It’s your voice that blows me away even thought it’s the silence that we’ve been fighting, if today brings a night of old pages I’ve written and stories I’ve told, can we pretend that they didn’t happen and that every line wasn’t written about you.
