Gates of Dawn
03:43
|

|
You know that I love you so
I think of you everywhere I go
The piper at the gates of dawn
Will never let you go until you show him what's beyond
Here comes the snow
It's coming to get you, doll
Velvet shades of green and blue
Cannot express what color is you
Our happiness is just a drop of pure bliss
But they all knew it was just a hit and miss
The mask that is worn
Could pierce through like a thorn
What's lying in the abyss
Is just that final kiss
Oh it's that final kiss

Marguerite

Marguerite from across the street
She really doesn't wear shoes on her feet
She's got a personality that you can't beat
She's got her head right into the clouds
Tele runs away but she can be found
She’s got her love that is plastered on the rounds
Marguerite! Marguerite!
Marguerite! Marguerite!
She's not really the person that you think she is
She's got the rest of her life to live
Hold on she's got something to say
The sky looks blue today
Marguerite! Marguerite! She's so lovely
Marguerite! Marguerite!
She's really close to the earth
And she'll never say goodbye
She says I love you
Love you till I die

Needs and Greeds
02:58
|
|||
|
The needs and greeds of another mans needs
Makes you wonder what happens when he pleads
Does he get down on his knees
Well maybe in your dreams
While people got their fantasies, while people got their fantasies
We got our needs and greeds
Well in your fantasy
You run, you run and leave
You run to the sea
Just to find me

I Won't Do That
05:19
|
|||
|
My baby, my baby don't treat me like that
I have respect, but never like that
I don't think too highly of the people I once knew
For I know that my woman will come back soon
You shook me, you shook me all night long
No not like that, you've got it all wrong
I want you to know I've been thinking a lot
And you still got me wrapped in your big love knot
But I won't do that, no I won't do that
I will never do that, no I won't do that
I've been walking around, from town to town
Trying to forget all those things I left hanging around
There's still one thing that I think you forgot
Oh babe, it's that big love knot
I tried, I tried, I tried, I know!
Please don't leave me lying here in the cold
If there's one thing I do right before I die
It's that one thing that'll make me satisfied

Motionless
06:42
|
|||
|
I lay motionless, in disbelief
Not knowing this is slowly killing me
I don't know where to go
The little man inside my head
Slowly pushing me
Until I drop dead
The walls are closing in, inside his mind
The footsteps are ringing like the chimes

You Don't Know Me
02:38
|
|||
|
You don’t know what I feel
You don’t know what I said
You don’t know what I have
In my memories, yeah, my memories
You know I’ve seen the baddest of them all
The ones with the scars
And the one’s who’ve lost it all, yeah, lost it all
You know I’ve seen you in misery
But I have seen you
As happy as can be, yeah, happy as can be
You know, some say life is a game of fun
But if that’s true
It’s only just begun, yeah, just begun

Early Morning Blues
05:15
|
|||
|
Every morning
I get up with the blues
Every morning
I get up without you, babe
You know if I don't find my baby
I won't know what else to do
But stop
Do I really need you?
But stop pretty baby
Do I really need you?
You don't give me any of your loving
Why should I give mine to you?
Every morning
I get up and play my guitar
Every morning
I get up and play my guitar, yeah
Good ol' Leslie
She's all I need to survive, she's all I need
She sounds like silver
She can also sound like rain
Oh I find it funny
How she goes
And she rattles my brain
Let's do it one more time again

White Car
02:18
|
|||
|
All the girls that I have met
Tell me things that I don’t get
They tell me I’m hypnotized
What’s the point?
At least I have a life
In my white car
My white car
Driving in my white car
One that can drive very far
Driving right to your house
To make everything a living hell

Red Jacket Man
03:08
|
|||
|
He walks home everyday
It's plus twenty, with a breeze
He wears a big red winter jacket
That he finds comfy
He talks about the TV
All the games that he's played
Sometimes, he goes on and on for days
He's got time cause he's so young
He's a king who walks the earth
He's got creativity galore
Since the day of his birth
Red jacket man, red jacket man
Won't you show us what's in your head?
Red jacket man, red jacket man
Oh he's a man, oh he's a man
Beneath the skin, oh he's a man
I don't know what's gonna happen
When this yellow bus pulls up
Maybe it will take him to a place
Where he might shut up
But he will walk home still
Through the plains of his mind
And a song in the distance
Will be of his time
Red jacket man, red jacket man
Won't you show us what's in your head?
Red jacket man, red jacket man
Oh he's a man, oh he's a man,
Beneath the red, oh he's a man

Shades of Light
07:17
|
|||
|
Welcome, welcome
To a shade of light
Welcome, welcome
Don't be afraid to fly
Don't be afraid to die
I'm walking inside a field of green
But at the end of the day
It's all just another dream
Like a caterpillar, like a caterpillar
In a cocoon
Like a baby, like a baby
In the womb
Oh there's nothing I can do
The walls are closing in on you
There's only one thing to do
You gotta break on through
Lost friends
And old lovers
The hand is moving
So don't be like the others
Down by the water side
Is where my heart lies
And I just keep on walking
Watching all these eyes
All you angels
With a broken wing
You better not give up now
It's only just one thing
To come of age in a dark place
They call the human race
If I could only love one
It would be by your pace
