Can't
Change Me
She can
do anything
at all
Have anything
she pleases
The power to
change what
she thinks is
wrong
So what could
she want with
me?
But wait
just one minute
here
I can see
that she's
trying to
read me
Suddenly I
know
She's going
to change
the world
But she can't
change me
No she can't
change me
She has the
daylight at
her command
She gives
the night
its dreams
She can uncover
your darkest
fear
And make you
forget you
feel it
But wait
just one minute
more
I can see
that she's
trying to
free me
Suddenly I
know
She's going
to change
the world
But she can't
change me
Suddenly
I can see
everything
that's wrong
with me
But what can
I do?
I'm the only
thing I really
have at all
But wait
just one minute
here
I can see
that she's
trying to
need me
Suddenly I
know
She's going
to change
the world
But she can't
change me
No she can't
change me

Flutter
Girl
I'm drinking
dust
With eyes
of rust
Tonight my
tears might
stain your
wings
So flutter
home
'Cause you're
better off
alone than
with me
So hide your
face
And tie your
lace
And butterflies
across your
cheek
Forget how
soon you become
a fool for
words when
I speak
Flutter girl
you don't
wanna know
what I live
You don't
wanna take
what I give
'Cause I give
nothing for
free
My hands
are rough
My fingers
cold
And your heart
so young and
so naïve
to ever feel
for a moment
That I might
dare to believe...
I'll tear
your wings
as I melt
in your smile
as I run all
your colors
away
Flutter girl
you don't
wanna know
what I live
You don't
wanna take
what I give
'Cause I give
nothing for
free

Preaching
The End Of
The World
Hello,
I know there's
someone out
there who
can understand
And who's
feeling the
same way as
me
I'm twenty-four
and I've got
everything
to live for
But I know
now that it
wasn't meant
to be
'Cause all
has been lost
and all has
been won
And there's
nothing left
for us to
save
But now I
know that
I don't want
to be alone
today
So if you
find that
you've been
feeling just
the same
Call me now
it's alright
It's just
the end of
the world
You need a
friend in
the world
'Cause you
can't hide
So call and
I'll get right
back
If your intentions
are pure
I'm seeking
a friend for
the end of
the world
I've got
a photograph
I'll send
it off today
And you will
see that I
am perfectly
sane
Not for a
lifetime or
forever and
a day
'Cause we
know now that
just won't
be the case
There will
be no commitment
and no confessions
And no little
secrets to
keep
No little
children or
houses with
roses just
the
end of the
world and
me
'Cause all
has been gone
and all has
been done
And there's
nothing left
for us to
say
But we could
be together
as they blow
it all away
And we can
share in every
moment as
it breaks
Call me now
it's alright
It's just
the end of
the world
You need a
friend in
the world
'Cause you
can't hide
So call and
I'll get right
back
If your intentions
are pure
I'm seeking
a friend for
the end of
the world

Follow
My Way
Little
one don't
be a fool,
I'm a wreck
when I look
mighty
In euphoria
I'm bruised,
in confusion
next I'm lightning
In complacence
I am small,
through oblivion
I charge
So follow
my way
When I'm not
leading anyone
Open and frayed
When you can
see that I'm
unsure
Out on my
way
I'm only pure
when I get
lost
And you're
only needing,
when you're
finding that
I'm not
You're just
looking for
a boy,
bathed in
infrared and
sunlight
I'm all polish
and reward,
when I'm confident
I'm hopeless
Just like
everybody
else, right
before they
fall apart
So follow
my way
When I am
falling from
your heart
When I'm the
pain
Fever and
sweet relief
in one
Out on my
way
Though I'm
not worthy
of your trust,
follow me
down into
a swan dive
All eyes closed
tightly
Lowly, slowly
now I know
I like where
you go when
you're gone
Warm your
hands inside
my veins,
I might be
contagious
Through oblivion
I charge
Follow my
way
When I'm useless
to your cause
When I derail
Calm in the
patience of
remorse
Out on my
way
Out on my
empty open
nerves
When all you
know
Is that I
don't know
where we are
When all you
know
Is that I
don't know
Follow my
way
^^-Return

When
I'm Down
What say
you now, the
door is opening
On your vigil
and I'm in
my usual way
I save my
breath, knowing
what you're
Wanting me
to say, I
only love
you when I'm
down
You say that
midnight opens
its arms to
me
Leaving you
alone, and
then I fly
so far away
Until the
light blurs
my vision
and I have
nowhere to
roam
I only love
you when I'm
down
And I only
love you when
I'm down
And I'm only
near you when
I'm gone
But one thing
for you to
keep in mind
you know
I'm down all
the time
Well I know
you're reaching
out and you
need to feel
my hand
You want to
be understood,
Yeah well
I understand
I know you
hold precious
little hope
for me
And in your
happiness,
I'm always
drowning in
my grief
And I only
love you when
I'm down
And I'm only
near you when
I'm gone
But one thing
for you to
keep in mind
you know
I'm down all
the time
All the time,
all the time,
all the time

Mission
Pulled
through you
and drowning
in your swirl
Circling unfolding
in your will
I'm going
to glide on
the winds
of your breathing
And alight
on your guarded
heart
I'm gonna
tear all our
temples down
I'm on a mission
now
Smoldering
down inside
your mood
Slithering
and fanning
in your eyes
I'm going
to dive through
your crying
and sleep
in your hair
Rise from
your ashes
and kneel
in your prayers
Tear all your
temples down
I'm on a mission
now
And I have
nothing, but
then the have
is not as
good as the
want
I'm gonna
glide on the
winds of your
breathing
Writhe in
your calm
and provide
your release
Weave into
your wanting
and needing
And reside
in the heart
of your strongest
beliefs
I'm gonna
tear all our
temples down
I'm on a mission
now
And I have
nothing, but
then the have
is not as
good as the
want.

Wave
Goodbye
Words
get tangled
on your tongue
And you stumble
on your feet
when you miss
somebody
And everywhere
you think
you see them
Walking down
the street
when you miss
somebody
When you miss
somebody you
tell yourself
a hundred
thousand times
Nobody ever
lives forever
so you give
it one more
try
To wave goodbye
wave goodbye
Every hurtful
thing you
ever said
is ringing
in your ear
When you miss
somebody
And every
thing of beauty
that you see
only brings
a tear
When you miss
somebody
When you miss
somebody you
tell yourself
everything
will be alright
Try to stand
up strong
and brave
when all you
want to do
Is lay down
and die
How long I've
waited for
an answer
or a sign
Lonely and
weary from
this troubled
task of trying
To wave goodbye
So now you
start to recognize
that every
single path
you see
Leads to a
tear in your
eye
So wave goodbye
wave goodbye

Moonchild
Open your
arms to the
lonely shine
Lonesome as
gold in a
poor man's
smile
See how the
moon is full,
follow the
push and pull
Follow the
ebb and flow
in the breathing
tide
Come on moonchild
you're so
far away tonight
The door is
falling open
and we're
flying wild
Cat on the
road, down
in the living
night
See how the
black dog
grins in the
diamond light
We're dreaming
and we're
real,
we're broken
and we're
healed
Give in to
what you feel
over what
you see
Come on moonchild,
you're so
far away tonight
The door is
falling open
and we're
flying wild
Come on moon
flower, you're
so far away
from now
You could
bloom forever
in the hour
And when if
is only yes
and no,
and now becomes
too soon
I know you'll
be alright
if you only
come away
to the moon
In the blue
shine
Come on moonchild
you're so
far away tonight
The door is
falling open
and we're
flying wild
Come on moon
flower you're
so far away
from now
You could
bloom forever
in the hour

Sweet
Euphoria
Sweet Euphoria
mine is the
heart you
own
You lost the
grace of the
hands that
harmed you
In the daze
of a thousand
yawns
Lost my love,
as it is I'm
truly gone
In your morning
I will sleep
Fire on an
open palm
Death for
Jesus and
plastic armies
Wouldn't bring
me back again
Sweet as ether
eyes I'm blind
to them
Gone are
your dandelions
falling like
mine
Falling on
land-mine
pillows
Tired angels
save my love
for the lasting
one
Sweet Euphoria
mine is the
heart you
stole
Touched and
broken are
the things
you love
Using stars
to light your
candles
Warms my face
but I can't
remember yours
Gone are your
dandelions
falling like
mine
Falling like
daydream mangos

Disappearing
One
What have
you done my
little spark
Cursing my
name 'cause
again I put
you out
Falling apart,
you tell yourself
you are
Dreaming only
of the ones
who never
dream of you
I'm your disappearing
one
Vanish when
the curtain's
drawn
But I will
come again
and you will
let me in
And you'll
see I never
disappear
for long
Into your
room I stumble
now
Too tired
to cower and
it's too late
to draw you
out
And there
you lie like
a painting
of Christ
Bleeding on
the heads
of the ones
who nailed
you down
I'm your disappearing
one
Vanish when
the curtain's
drawn
But I will
come again
and you will
let me in
And you'll
see I never
disappear
for long.

Pillow
Of Your Bones
The embers
of the saint
inside you
Are growing
as I'm bathing
in your glow
I'm swallowing
the poison
of your flower
And hanging
on the rising
of my low
Colorful and
falling from
your mouth
Like a painted
fever in recoil,
like a lie
without the
pain
On a pillow
of your bones,
I will lay
across the
stones
Of your shore
until the
tide comes
crawling back
Throw the
pillow on
the fire,
make my bed
under the
eye
Of your moon
until the
tide comes
crawling back
A waning hand
on silver
granite ways
Will mend
my broken
limbs and
bend my haze
I'm sleeping
in the silence
of your voice
I'm cradling
the peril
of my only
choice
Colorful and
falling from
your mouth
Like a painted
fever in recoil,
like a lie
without the
pain
On a pillow
of your bones
I will lay
across the
stone
Of your shore
until the
tide comes
crawling back
Throw my pillow
on the fire,
make my bed
under the
eye
Of your moon
until the
tide comes
crawling back
Even though
the truth
can burn inside
or fall behind
I will wander
through your
open mind
and you will
find
no lie can
hide
Until the
tide comes
crawling

Steel
Rain
And so we
start another
day together
You and I
and a million
miles between
us
I train my
moods to bloom
like flowers
unfolding
Instead of
fluttering
around
And slowly
drowning in
the
Steel rain
it's taking
over
The sky is
open and the
drones are
pouring out
The day inhales
in a contagious
yawn
And there
you smile
as though
the sun were
bouncing in
the
Steel rain
it's taking
over
Here in the
little world,
The tiny world
spins for
me
All's well
in the tilted
world but
there's something
falling down
in the
Steel rain
it's taking
over
