1.Plastic Cup
Well you could always count on your friends to get you high
That's right
And you could always count on the 'rents to get you by
You could fly
And now they make you piss into a plastic cup
And give it up
The cup will probably be here long after we're gone
What's wrong
They'll probably dig it up a thousand years from now
And how
They'll probably wonder what the hell we used it for
And more
This must be the cup the king held every night
As he cried
Well maybe you should go out and write your own damn song
And move on
2.Amethyst
You hide, you always hide
So deep inside the amethyst mine
The color bleeds and fades to white
What used to be a violent mind
Afraid the things they say
They reach and stranger get their way
You claim they can't touch you
Still you choose to take the edge of the room
Oh time, it pulls out your eyes
It makes you choose between two lives
So what? You've got that too
You're nobody's stupid girl
3.So Blue
4.Holy Ghost
Some holy ghost
Keeps me hanging on
Hanging on
Some holy ghost
Keeps me hanging on
Hanging on
I feel the hands
But I don't see anyone
Anyone
I feel the hands
But I don't see anyone
It's there and gone
Feeds my passion for transcendence
Turns my water into wine
Makes me wish I was empty
Now I don't know much
But I can tell when something's wrong
And something's wrong
But some holy ghost
Keeps me
Oooh oooh...
5.Waiting
I'm waiting like a child
Hope runs wild
The truth can hide
Sometimes right behind the sorrow
I see beyond the smile
Cheat and lie
I'm not blind
Suicide, still I'll be here tomorrow
So leave it alone
Dogs come home
Even the stone finds a place within the hollow
Yeah
I'm waiting like a child
Hope runs wild
The truth can hide
Sometimes right behind the sorrow
Yeah
6.Clarence White
Clarence White and Josh Murray
I never thought I'd see the day
It hurts to hear but it's so easy to say
Clarence White
I know I shouldn't be afraid
You think it's pretty (oh no)
I am a raging river
I'll cut through your city (oh no)
Just like destroying angel
The one from the movie (oh no)
The one with Charlton Heston
That used to scare me
But I know I shouldn't be afraid
I know I shouldn't be afraid
I know I shouldn't be afraid
I know I shouldn't be afraid
7.Four Score
8.Just Make It Stop
If I could just make it stop
I could tell the whole world
To get out of the way
If I could just make it stop
If I could just make it stop
Breaking my heart
Get out of the way
If I could just make it stop
You see I'm close to the edge
I'm at the end of my rope
The rope is starting to thread
I'm trying to keep my hold
You say I'm something I'm not
But I'm not what I seem
Get my back off the wall
If I could just make it stop
If I could just make it stop
I could tell the whole world
To get out of the way
If I could just make it stop
If I could just make it stop
Breaking my heart
Get out of the way
If I could just make it stop
If I could just make it stop
Now I'm looking up
From a ten foot hole
Seeing nothing but blue sky
Shining on my soul
As I untie the chord
And untwist the knot
We could get where we're going
If I could just make it stop
If I could just make it stop
I could tell the whole world
To get out of the way
If I could just make it stop
If I could just make it stop
From breaking my heart
Get out of the way
If I could just make it stop
If I could just make it stop
9.Mother
When you became my mother, there was time
You thought I'd be a daughter, but didn't mind
And as the world began to measure, and define
We had time
We had time
You gave me light and language, and a name
You held me to the fire, to the flame
Now if I could tell the future, all the same
Why would I
We have time
Deep beneath the surface of the earth
So many bodies waiting for the word
When every child and mother will return
Forever
We'll have time
10.On My Own
11.To Our Knees
