Baby blue buildings far above the crystal grove
Magenta plated terrace with a table and a stove
Guarded golden railing just to frame the pretty stars
Fix that old piano and the birds will fall apart
The world's going crazy and
Nobody gives a d--- anymore.
And they're breaking off relationships and
Leaving on sailing ships for far and distant shores.
For them it's all over,
But I'm gonna stay.
I wouldn't leave anyway.
I know that someday we'll find a way.
We'll be O.K.
'Cause I'm your brother,
Though I don't even know your name.
I've discovered that,
Deep down inside, you feel the same.
Poor little Liddy
She wishes it was dark
But it's never really dark in LA
The light from the billboard always shines
but it changed 12 times since you went away
Now I'm not pretty, and I'm not cool
But I'm fat, and I'm ugly and proud, so **** you
Standing out is the new pretension
Streamline the sickness, half-assed aggression
You gotta see it to believe it, we all got conned
All the mediocre sacred cows we spawned
Put your trust in the mission
We will not repent, this is our religion
I can't remember anything
Can't tell if this is true or a dream
Deep down inside I feel to scream
This terrible silence stops me
Now that the war is through with me
I'm waking up, I cannot see
That there's not much left of me
Nothing is real but pain now
Hold my breath as I wish for death
Oh please, God, wake me!
Back in the womb it's much too real
In pumps life that I must feel
But can't look forward to reveal
Look to the time when I'll live
Fed through the tube that sticks in me
Just like a wartime novelty
Tied to machines that make me be
Cut this life off from me!
Hold my breath as I wish for death
Oh please, God, wake me!
Now the world is gone, I'm just one
Oh God, help me
Hold my breath as I wish for death
Oh please, God, help me!
Darkness imprisoning me!
All that I see!
Absolute horror!
I cannot live!
I cannot die!
Trapped in myself!
Body my holding cell!
Landmine has taken my sight!
Taken my speech!
Taken my hearing!
Taken my arms!
Taken my legs!
Taken my soul!
Left me with life in hell!!!
I count the falling tears, they fall before my eyes
Seems like a thousand years since we broke the ties
I call you on the phone but never get a rise
So sit there all alone, it's time you realize
I'm not your fool!
(Nobody's fool, nobody's fool) I'm no fool!
(Nobody's fool, nobody's fool) Never again, no, no
You take your road, I'll take mine
The paths have both been beat
Searchin' for a change of pace
Love needs to be sweetened
I scream my heart out, just to make a dime
And with that dime I bought your love
But now I've changed my mind
I'm not your fool!
(Nobody's fool, nobody's fool) I'm no fool!
(Nobody's fool, nobody's fool) Never again, no, no
(Nobody's fool, nobody's fool) I'm no fool!
(Nobody's fool, nobody's fool)
I count the falling tears, they fall before my eyes
Seems like a thousand years
Since we broke the ties!
Oh-oh-oh!
I'm not your fool!
(Nobody's fool, nobody's fool) I'm no fool!
(Nobody's fool, nobody's fool) I'm no fool!
(Nobody's fool, nobody's fool) I'm no fool!
(Nobody's fool, nobody's fool)
(Nobody's fool, nobody's fool)
(Nobody's fool, nobody's fool)
(Nobody's fool, nobody's fool)
(Nobody's fool, nobody's fool)
I'm a wheel, I'm a wheel
I can roll, I can feel
You can't stop me turning
Cause I'm the sun, I'm the sun
I can move, I can run
But you'll never stop me burning
Come down with fire
Lift my spirit higher
Someone's screaming my name
Come and make me holy again
I'm the man on the silver mountain
I'm the man on the silver mountain
I'm the day, I'm the day
I can show you the way
And look, I'm right beside you
I'm the night, I'm the night
I'm the dark and the light
With eyes that see inside you
Come down with fire
Lift my spirit higher
Someone's screaming my name
Come and make me holy again
I'm the man on the silver mountain
I'm the man on the silver mountain
Come down with fire
And lift my spirit higher
Someone's screaming my name
Come and make me holy again
I'm the man on the silver mountain
I'm the man on the silver mountain
Well, I can help you, you know I can I'm the man on the silver mountain
I'm the man on the silver mountain
Just look at me and listen
I'm the man, the man, give you my hand
I'm the man on the silver mountain
Come down with fire
And lift your spirit higher
I'm the man on the mountain
The man on the silver mountain
I'm the night and the light
I'm the black and the white
The man on the silver mountain
I heard about a whirlwind that's coming 'round
It's gonna carry off all that isn't bound, and
When it happens, when it happens
(I won't be holding on)
So let it happen, let it happen
All this running around
I can't fight it much longer
Something's tryin' to get out
And it's never been closer
I have a different song in mind at the moment but it's in Japanese and if I pasted Japanese lyrics here I'm worried people wouldn't get it. So in the meantime here is an English song.
I see the light shining through the rain
A thousand colors in thе brighter shade
Needed to rise from the lowest place
There's silver lining that surrounds the grey
When I get lost, will it come back around?
Things don't look up when you're going down
I know your arms, they are reaching out
From somewhere beyond the clouds
You make me feel
Like my troubled heart is a million miles away
You make me feel
Like I'm drunk on stars and we're dancing out into space
Celestial
Wake up (wake up)
Grab a brush and put a little make-up
Hide the scars to fade away the... (Hide the scars to fade away the shake-up)
Why'd you leave the keys upon the table?
Here you go create another fable
You wanted to!
And the sign says "long hair freaky people need not apply"
So I put my hair under my hat and I went in to ask him why
He said, "you look like a fine outstanding young man, I think you'll do"
So I took off my hat I said, "Imagine that
Huh, me working for you"
Signs, signs
Everywhere there's signs
****ing up the scenery
Breaking my mind
Do this, don't do that
Can't you read the sign?
And the sign says "Anybody caught trespassing will be shot on sight"
So I jumped the fence and I yelled at the house, "Hey! What gives you the right
To put up a fence and keep me out
Or to keep Mother Nature in?"
If God was here, He'd tell it to your face
"Man, you're some kind of sinner"
Signs, signs
Everywhere there's signs
****ing up the scenery
Breaking my mind
Do this, don't do that
Can't you read the sign?
Oh, say now mister can't you read?
You got to have a shirt and tie to get a seat
You can't watch, no you can't eat
You ain't supposed to be here
And the sign says "You got to have a membership card to get inside", uh!
And the sign says "Everybody welcome; come in, kneel down and pray"
But then they passed around a plate at the end of it all
And I didn't have a penny to pay
So I got me a pen and paper and I made up my own ****ing sign
I said , "Thank you Lord for thinking about me, I'm alive and doing fine"
Signs, signs
Everywhere there's signs
****ing up the scenery
Breaking my mind
Do this, don't do that
Can't you read the sign?
Signs, signs
Everywhere there's signs
****ing up the scenery
Breaking my mind
Do this, don't do that
Can't you read the sign?
