1.Missing Pieces
I would go to pieces if you said that this was just an act
to come and take the sleep out of my night
And I would go to pieces if you said that this was just an act
to come and take the shine out of my life
Oh and I go through it all
Oh it's a thing like habit, I know
I would be a fighter for a tiny piece of a tiny feeling
give it up to wonder what it's worth
And I would feel much bigger for the little joy that you get
from stealing
I never really wonder what it's worth
Oh and I am dead and gone
Oh you will feel much older, I know
I would feel much better if I thought there was any other reason
to keep away the beauty from the dirt
And I would do much better if I thought I fill any other need
And I miss you, oh
And I miss you, oh
And I would be complete if you could put me down in facts and
figures
the hardest things are always black and white
And I would be complete if you could touch me once but it never
figures
the easy things are never really right
Oh and I go day by day, oh it's a thing to live for, I know
And I would feel much better if I thought there was any other
reason
to keep away the beauty from the dirt
And I would do much better if I thought I fill any other need
And I miss you, oh
And I miss you, oh
Why don't you take a walk outside and see the mess I made
and see the mess I made
And I will be waiting with a knife just like an angry child
just like an angry child
And why don't you go spread the word just like some disease
just like some disease
I know your mother told you that you are God
But you are just a Boy
I would be much better if I thought there was any other reason
to keep away the beauty from the dirt
I would do much better if I thought there was any other need
And I miss you, oh
And I miss you, oh
And I would feel much better if I thought there was any other
reason
to keep away the beauty from the dirt
And I would do much better if I thought there was any other need
And I miss you, oh
And I miss you, and I miss you
2.Long Haul
Somebody told me if you live this way,
Then its a long long haul.
I wanna catch a love and make it stay,
Oh its a long long haul.
When u know darkness you can love a day,
Oh its a long long haul.
I've never seen it, i just talk this way,
Oh its a long long haul.
And you lie to us both,
We are words, nothing holds.
I wanna catch a love and make it stay
Oh its a long long haul.
Enjoy little joy now of this place before i get to old.
I'll flee these troubled horses from this place inside my
troubled soul.
And nothing,
So far
If we are salt and earth and sun and stone then its a long long
throw,
To fixing trouble in a broken home
And if you wont you wont
Call when u can walk beside me past my past.
Oh its a long long haul.
I wanna catch a love and make it last oh it a long long haul
And you lie to us both
We are words nothing holds,
I wanna catch a love and make it stay,
Oh its a long long haul.
I'll enjoy a little joy now in this place before i get too old,
I'll flee these troubled horses from this place within my
troubled soul,
And nothing,
So far
I wanna catch a love and make it stay
I wanna catch a love and make it stay
I wanna catch a love and make it stay
I wanna catch a love and make it stay
3.Wrecking Force
Get dirty get clean
Get some new scene to wipe the dirt from everything
That touches you and takes you far from faith
In body, in deep I saw you creeping
Little footsteps through my sleep and
Color me with images of faith
And you can be anyone or just some mother's wasted son
Oh you can be your own god if you want to
Come over come quick come laugh get sick
Come battle two swords with a stick
And when you've gone I'll put it through my chest
Cuz listen kid everybody knows you can fit good company up your
nose
And you can love anyone
You will believe me when I'm gone
Oh you can be your own god if you want to
Come on to my side you will define me with a knife
Spare me all the misery as I tear apart your life
Oh you can lose yourself in art
Or you can break somebody's heart in two
Jump on in, the water's fine for swimming
Look over look fast again look past
The motley kids and ugly cast
That smother you, all radiant with joy
Cuz somebody once said when I was young
Playing dead was just no fun
But these days I am a man, I'm not a boy
And you can be anyone
Or just some mother's wasted son
Oh you can be your own god if you want to
Come on to my side you will define me with a knife
Spare me all the misery as I tear apart your life
Oh you can lose yourself in art
Or you can break somebody's heart in two
Jump on in, the water's fine for swimming
4.They Never Mean What They Say
Got on the train come
She went out to the city
Lookin' for a better job
He was in trouble
He said over the syron
'I love you, but i'm just a slob'
This is hardage
Its something to remember
The theatre is for wasting time
Working is lowsly
And college is for quiters
Some semetry is hard to find
I'm tired and battered
Want to sore off my shows
I'm restless and torn
Short of nothing to lose
I'm tired and battered
Sick of all these people
Go out your front door
You'll never be so sorry
The city life can make you born
When i was a child
I never stop to question
Just what on earth i do this for
Looking in the corner
A quiet television
Remember when you saw me there？
Kissing your asphlat
A 100 thousand questions
I miss it, but i just dont care
I'm tired and battered
Want to sew off my shoes
I'm restless and torn
Short of nothing to lose
I'm tired and battered
Sick of all these people
..They never mean what they say
They never say they mean
They only want you to give in
I wish to god that i could meet somebody
That i could just spend
Somebody that i could just spend
Instruments..
I'm on the
I'm looking to get better
Think maybe you could show me how？
If you really love me
Quit petting for affection
And burn the fucking house down now
I'm tired and battered
Want to sew off my shoes
I'm restless and torn
Short of nothing to lose
I'm tired and battered
Sick of all these people
..They never mean what they say
They never say they mean
They only want you to give in
I wish to god that i could meet somebody
That i could just spend
Somebody that i could just spend
5.Raised By Wolves
I was going hungry and lazy here
When you stopped me in my tracks
I was going crazy; I was desolate and ready to kill
But maybe I believe in another place
If you go, you won't look back
And anywhere you go you know
The ugliness will follow you still
And you break
This into waste
We are desperate, lonely and underpaid
I'm a bitter man, I know
But listen, honey, you're no fun
I will never live like you
But you will probably die like me
Oh lovelessly, an ending
Full of god, and god makes plenty.
You will go on searching
For someone to keep you killing
If you love me, won't you leave me？
'cause I want to settle down
First you
Fade into the background
Wouldn't even call me
Had the nerve to leave me
Go ahead and love me
I'm a hungry man
Ever since you went away
First you
Fade into the background
Wouldn't even call me
Had the nerve to leave me
Go ahead and love me
I'm a hungry man
Ever since you went away
I don't know if you've got another place
Where you bury all these things
I don't know if you can see the shadow
That you cast on the ground
But maybe I can see through the lonely face
Loose your feet and loose your waist
Anywhere you are, you know the freedom there
Is dragging you down
And you break me into lines
We can shake our bodies
And wreck our minds
I'm a bitter man, I know,
But listen, honey, you're no fun
I will never love like you
But you will probably hate like me
Oh lovelessly, and empty
Full of god, and god makes plenty.
You will go on searching
For someone to keep you killing
If you love me, won't you leave me？
'cause I want to settle down…
First you
Fade into the background
Wouldn't even call me
Had the nerve to leave me
Go ahead and love me
I'm a hungry man
Ever since you went away.
First you
Fade into the background
Wouldn't even call me
Had the nerve to leave me
Go ahead and love me
I'm a hungry man
Ever since you went away.
And oh, don't you wanna love？
And don't you wanna feel？
I remember, you were reckless, you were hungry
You were real, you were so uptight
Listen, I don't mind
I feel like I'm watching a car crash.
And oh, this is how it ends
You will watch your friends
Take a moment, take a nothing
Then they'll put it in again.
This is how we are
This is how we are
We are young and stupid
And raised by wolves
I will never live like you do
I will never love like you do
I will never live like you do
I, I will never love like you do
I will never live like you do
I will never love like you do
I will never live like you
I will never love like you
I will never live like you do
No, I will never love like you
I will never live like you
Say I, I will never love like you do
6.The Start Of Something
This time of night I could call you up
I'd get angry with athletic ease, break common laws in twos and
threes
If I die clutching your photograph
Don't call me boring, It's just 'cause I like you
Take me on back... take me back
To the place where I could feel your heart
Is this the end or just the start of
Something really, really beautiful
Wrapped up and disguised as something really, really ugly,
Won't you...
Come by and see me, I'm a love letter away
I'd break your name before I'd say, 'I really love you, love
you, '
I don't care if you saw, I watched every inch of film
Flash across your Roman features,
And I loved it, loved it; I don't care if
You think I'm eager to shut your eyes, well
I'm sorry-everybody knows you can't break me with your gutter
prose
Would you believe it, she sent me a letter,
The ring, it nearly weighs her down, she's got another boy, oh
boy
Steady your ears... read my lips
Poetry is not a luxury, it's how I'll break this home
And when I'm really ill, won't you cradle me？
Man is not a noble animal, but maybe woman is, remember,
I heard you...
Inside your room, you said, 'You never really live
Until your back's against the wall, ' oh did you really mean it？
I never break my gaze, if just to see this scar remain reflected
in your eyes
I think it's time to go home
GUITAR SOLO
Oh, tell me your thoughts, tell me your thoughts on liberty,
See there's a place where I sink to sleeping
Oh, my vote is as red as my blood
Will you join me for another round？ I haven't had the chance to
speak yet
God speed...
I break the law once every week to feel your touch,
What's a book to you in bed, Do you feel better, older？
This just makes me ill, your name is dripping from my pen
Still you're not around to curse,
I'll drop the gun now, I'm still under you...
Marianne, let the ghosts sleep tonight.
Marianne, let the ghosts sleep, just shut your eyes and burn the
past away
