disappointment in the morning confusion at night and this loneliness like a cancer eating away at my life and everyone's talking everyone's talking just cause they're talking don't mean that they're telling the truth oh I"ll be a mirror you can see yourself in the glass it's not me that you're seeing that's all right this will pass and everyone's talking... it's not anyone's fault just the way it went down to be lifted so high left to fall on the ground on the ground and everyone was talking everyone was talking just cause they were talking didn't mean that they knew anything about you and me spinning spinning falling down wondering where the bottom is it took me many years to forget it now it seems we're going back in time and my old loves calling my name again but it's still a pack of lies and everyone's talking...

Old man lying by the side of the road With the lorries rolling by, Blue moon sinking from the weight of the load And the buildings scrape the sky, Cold wind ripping down the alley at dawn And the morning paper flies, Dead man lying by the side of the road With the daylight in his eyes. Don't let it bring you down It's only castles burning, Find someone who's turning And you will come around. Blind man running through the light of the night With an answer in his hand, Come on down to the river of sight And you can really understand, Red lights flashing through the window in the rain, Can you hear the sirens moan? White cane lying in a gutter in the lane, If you're walking home alone. Don't let it bring you down It's only castles burning, Just find someone who's turning And you will come around. Don't let it bring you down It's only castles burning, Just find someone who's turning And you will come around.

Back In Time 04:40
i wish that we could go back in time before they let all those murdering devils out to run wild through the earth and kill us all that would be way back in the Bible just let me go to sleep for a while it makes me tired God was really upset with them that time not for Himself but for their future and for the future of humanity He said no don't do it it'll be all war and misery just let me go to sleep it makes me tired. But they insisted and he said ok I warned you yes you warned us yes you did they said but He knew that they didn't know anything, that they were blind but he had to let them have what they wanted it was the only way do do do do do when you look at me do you even see me or do you just see something out of your own self made up of who you known who you've listened to who you've trusted who you've loved well you know it's the same for me I am who I am and I've been where I've been and I've seen what I've seen and for that matter why should anyone be like anyone else how can you ever really know another person I might know something about you sure but you're the one who's actually lived it all just let me go to sleep for a while it makes me tired

someone told me that you called didn't want to call you back don't think you understand at all think it's better not to talk about I wish you well in your future thank you for the times we had chalk it up to another learning experience no need to be sad Christians lie and steal like Pagans Oh so much remains the same the only given is the end of life and taxes and people and so much beauty You could lose everything today you fall down fifty times you'll have to get up again they'll be falling all around you even your children no one is safe oh love me love me it's a long way through the world a long way to heaven takes a long time to be heard it's a long long road gonna be all right be all right Pochahontas was a lovely child she wanted the killing to stop and we loved her for it but she couldn't stop the tide or the madness of the human race why don't you go back to sleep let the angels bring you dreams you're not that wonderful a writer you're not that special at all and it's all right it's all right oh love me love me etc it's a long way home don't let it get to you
