Why?

tell me, do you really think
you go to hell
for having loved?
tell me and not for thinking
every thing that you've done is good
(i really need to know)

Why?

i may just never see you again
or might as well
you took advantage of a world
that loved you well
i'm going to a town
that has already been burned down
i'm going to a place
that is already been disgraced
i'm gonna see some folks
who have already been let down
i'm so tired ...

Going To A Town

making my own way home
ain't gonna be alone
i got a life to lead
i got a soul to feed
i got a dream to heed
and that's all i need

Today / Weird Day / Crash / Goodbye

Hortur

i'm left because
i'm never leaving
and i don't want
the things i have
i make plans
to relieve myself
feeling good
and looking bad

i love the fork
that loves me back
those lips of luck
the kind you lack
we've wasted more
on caring less
i'll sing until
we make it home

Picastro

The Treehouse

when i woke
i took the backdoor to my mind
and then i spoke
i counted all of
the good things you are

and that list of charms was
longer than my chain of broken hearts
and when the day was done
i figured i had already lost
from the start, from the start

Song

i was gonna love you
till the end of all daytime
and i was gonna keep
all our secret signs and our lullabies
i was made to believe
that our love would grow old
we were gonna live
in a treehouse and make babies
and we were gonna bury
our ex-lovers and their ghosts
baby we were made of gold

so many times
we drank fine winein one swallow
and in those late nights
we painted our walls bright yellow

and still that list of charms was
longer than my chain of broken hearts
and when the day was done
i figured i had already lost
from the start, from the start

Twilight

another starless night
another dim street light
turn your head just right
the street becomes a sky
shooting stars go by
they spark and they die


you see the reason why
you never catch the night
dregs of lone tail-lights
streaks of red vein the sky
but you love twilight

Twilight

oh, love me
with your body
i need one to hold
oh, love me
with your body
I need one to hold
tonight
in the long dim light
streaks of red vein your eyes
don’t you love twilight

twilight
twilight
twilight

The

he came riding fast like
a phoenix out of fire flames
he came dressed in black
with a cross bearing my name
he came bathed in light
and the splendor and glory
i can't believe what
the lord has finally sent me

he said dance for me
fanciulla gentil
he said laugh a while
i can make your heart feel
he said fly with me
touch the face of the true god
and then cry with joy
at the depth of my love

cause i've prayed days
i've prayed nights
for the lord just to
send me home some sign
i've looked long
i've looked far
to bring peace
to my black
and empty heart

Dancer

my love will stay
till the river bed run dry
and my love lasts long
as the sunshine blue sky
i love him longer
as each damn day goes
the man is gone
nd heaven only knows

cause i've cried days
i've cried nights
for the lord just to
send me up some sign
is he near? is he far?
bring peace
to my black
and empty heart

so long day
so long night
good lord
be near me tonight
is he near? is he far?
bring peace
to my black
and empty heart

Dance

let's dance little stranger
show me secret sins
love can be like bondage
seduce me once again

burning like an angel
who has heaven in reprieve
burning like the voodoo man
with devils on his sleeve

won't you dance with me
in my world of fantasy
won't you dance with me
ritual fertility

like an apparition
you don't seem real at all
like a premonition
of curses on my soul

With Me

the way i want to love you
well it could be against the law
i've seen you in a thousand minds
you've made the angels fall

come on little stranger
there's only one last dance
soon the music's over
let's give it one more chance

take a chance with me
in my world of fantasy
won't you dance with me
ritual fertility
