There is a house in new orleans
They call the rising sun
It's been the ruin of many a poor boy
And god, I know I'm one

I cried to my daddy on the telephone
How long now
Until the clouds unroll and you come home
The line went
But the shadows still remain since your descent
Your descent

I cried to my daddy on the telephone
How long now
Until the clouds unroll and you come home
The line went
But the shadows still remain since your descent
Your descent

The saints are coming, the saints are coming
I say no matter how i try, i realise there's no reply
The saints are coming, the saints are coming
I say no matter how i try, i realise there's no reply

New birth to the rebirth
New orleans

Living like birds in magnolia trees
A child on a rooftop, a mother on her knees
Her sign reads
Please, I am an american

A drowning sorrow floods the deepest grief
How long now
Until a weather change condemns belief
How long now
When the night watchman lets in the thief
What's wrong now

The saints are coming, the saints are coming
I say no matter how I try, I realise there's no reply
The saints are coming, the saints are coming
I say no matter how I try, I realise there's no reply
I say no matter how I try, I realise there's no reply
I say no matter how I try, I realise there's no reply

Summer has come and past,
The innocent can never last,
Wake me up when September ends,
Like my fathers come to pass,
Seven years has gone so fast,

Wake me up when September ends
Here comes the rain again,
Falling from the stars,
Drenched in my pain again,
Becoming who we are,
As my memory rests,
But never forgets what I lost

Wake me up when September ends

Summer has come and past,
The innocent can never last,
Wake me up when September ends

Ring out the bells again,
Like we did when spring began,
Wake me up when September ends

Here comes the rain again,
Falling from the stars,
Drenched in my pain again,
Becoming who we are,
As my memory rests,
But never forgets what I lost

Wake me up when September ends

Summer has come and past,
The innocent can never last,
Wake me up when September ends

Like my father's come to pass,
Twenty years has gone so fast

Wake me up when September ends
Wake me up when September ends
Wake me up when September ends

walk a lonely road,
the only one that I have ever known
Don't know where it goes
but it's on the mid, I walk alone

I walk this empty street
on the boulevard of broken dreams
When the city sleeps
and I'm the only one and I walk alone
I walk alone, I walk alone
I walk alone and I walk up

My shadow's the only one that walks beside me
My shalow heart's the only thing that's beating
Sometimes I wish someone out there will find me
Till then I walk alone

Aha aha aha aha
aha aha aha

I'm walking down the line
that divides me somewhere in my mind
On the borderline
of the edge and where I walk alone

Read between the lines
what's noft up and everything's all right
Check my vital signs
I know I'm still alive and I walk alone
I walk alone, I walk alone
I walk alone and I walk up

My shadow's the only one that walks beside me
My shalow heart's the only thing that's beating
Sometimes I wish someone out there will find me
Till then I walk alone

Aha aha aha aha
aha aha I walk alone and I walk up

I walk this empty street
on the boulevard of broken dreams
when the city sleeps
and I'm the only one
and I walk up

My shadow's the only one that walks beside me
My shalow heart's the only thing that's beating
Sometimes I wish someone out there will find me
Till then I walk alone

I want to be the minority
I don't need your authority
Down with the moral majority
'Cause I want to be the minority�

I pledge allegiance to the underworld
One nation under dog
There of which I stand alone
A face in the crowd
Unsung, against the mold
Without a doubt
Singled out
The only way I know�

I want to be the minority
I don't need your authority
Down with the moral majority
'Casue I want to be the minority�

Stepped out of the line
Like a sheep runs from the herd
Marching out of time
To my own beat now
The only way I know�

One light, one mind
Flashing in the dark
Blinded by the silence of a thousand broken hearts
"For crying out loud" she screamed unto me
A free for all
F*** 'em all
You are your own sight�

I want to be the minority
I don't need your authority
Down with the moral majority
'Cause I want to be the minority
