Dust n' bones:
She loved him yesterday
Yesterday's over
I said okay
That's all right
Time moves on
That's the way
We live an hope to see the next day
That's all right
Sometimes these things they are so easy
Sometimes these things they are so cold
Sometimes these things just seem to
rip you right in two
Oh no man don't let 'em get ta you
Don't cry (original):
I know how you feel inside I've
I've been here before
Somethin's changin' inside you
Don't you take it so hard now
And please don't take it so bad
I'll still be thinking of you
And the times we had... baby
November Rain:
We've been through this such a long long time
Just tryin' to kill the pain
If we could take the time to lay it on the line
I could rest my head
just knowin' that you were mine
All mine
So if you want to love me
then darlin' don't refrain
Or I'll just end up walkin'
in the cold November rain
And when your fears subside
and shadows still remain
I know that you can love me
when there's no one left to blame
Don't damn me:
So I hid inside my world
I took what I could find
I cried when I was lonely
I fell down when I was blind
But don't damn me when I speak
a piece of my mind
'Cause silence isn't golden
when I'm holding it inside
But look at what we've done
to the innocent and young
We take for granted we know the whole story
We judge a book by its cover
and read what we want
Between selected lines
Bad Apples:
Hell I'm just another guy
If it were up to me
I'd say just leave me be
Why let one bad apple
Spoil the whole damn bunch
Coma:
Slippin' farther an farther away
It's a miracle how long we can stay
In a world our minds created
civil war:
Look at the shoes your filling
Look at the blood we're spilling
Look at the world we're killing
The way we've always done before
My hands are tied
For all I've seen has changed my mind
But still the wars go on as the years go by
14 years:
I try and feel the sunshine
You bring the rain
You try and hold me down
With your complaints
You cry and moan and complain
You whine and tear
Up to my neck in sorrow
But its been
14 years of silence
Its been
14 years of pain
Its been
14 years that are gone forever
And I'll never have again
Yesterdays:
Yesterday... there was so many things I was never told,
Now that I'm starting to learn, I feel I'm growing old,
'Cause yesterday's got nothing for me,
Old pictures that I'll always see,
Time just fades the pages in my book of memories,
Yesterday... there was so many things I was never shown,
Suddenly this time I found, I'm on the streets and I'm all alone,
Get in the ring:
Why do you look at me when you hate me
Why should I look at you when you
Make me hate you too
I sense a smell of retribution in the air
I don't even understand why the fuck
You even care
Shotgun blues:
I got the shotgun blues, shotgun blues,
I said I don't know what I did but I know I gotta move,
You say I walk a line,
Fuck they move it every time,
You walk a mile in my shoes,
And then you tell me about singing the blues,
Oh, you want a confrontation, I'll give you every fuckin' chance,
With your verbal masturbation, me, I just like to dance,
How's that for provocation?, I'm just making a stance,
And I'm tired of the frustration,
Of living inside of your lies,
And I'm wired on indignation,
Breakdown:
We all come in from the cold, we come down from the wire
And everybody warms themselves to a different fire
When sometimes we get burned, You'd think sometime we'd learn
The one you love is the one That should take you higher
You ain't got no one You better go back out and find her
To think the one you love could hurt you now is a little hard to believe,
But everybody, darling, sometimes bites the hand that feeds,
Ow,
When I look around, everybody always brings me down,
Well is it them or me, well I just can't see but there ain't no peace to be found,
But if someone really cared, well they'd take the time to spare,
A moment to try and understand another one's despair,
Remember in this game we call life that no one said it's fair,
BREAKDOWN - Let me hear it now,
I've come to know the cold, I think of it as home,
When there ain't enough of me to go around I'd rather be left alone,
But if I call you out of habit, I'm outta love and I gotta have it,
Would you give it to me if I fit your needs like when we both knew we had it,
But now the damage's done and we're back out on the run,
Fun how everything was roses when we held onto the guns,
But just because you're winning don't mean you're the lucky ones,
Pretty tied up:
I know this chick she lives down on Melrose,
She ain't satisfied without some pain,
Locomotive:
If I said that you're my friend and our love would never end,
How long before I had your trust again,
I opened up the doors when it was cold outside,
Hoping that you'd find your own way in,
But how can I protect you or try not to neglect you,
When you won't take the love I have to give,
I bought me an illusion and I put it on the wall,
I let it fill my head with dreams and I had to have them all,
Yeah, I let you shape me but I feel as though you raped me,
'Cause you climbed inside my world and in my songs,
But how can I forget you or try not to reject you,
When we both know it takes time to forgive,
Gonna have some fun with my frustration,
Gonna watch the big screen in my head,
I'd rather take a detour 'cause this road ain't getting clearer,
Your train of thought has cut me off again,
Better tame that boy 'cause he's a wild one,
Better tame that boy for he's a man,
I'm taking time for quiet consolation,
In passing by this love that's passed away,
You know I tried to wake you I mean how long could it take you,
To open up your eyes and turn the page,,
'Cause love to me's a two way street and all I really want is peace,
Affection is a blessing, Can you find it in your sordid heart?,
I tried to keep this thing together but the tremor tore my pad apart,
Yeah, I know it's hard to face,
When all we've worked for's gone to waste,
But you're such a stupid woman and I'm such a stupid man,
But love like time's got its own plans,
Yeah,
If love is blind I guess,
I'll buy myself a cane,
So Fine:
It's a story of a man
Who works as hard as he can
Just to be a man
who stands on his own
If you could only live my life
You could see the difference you make to me- To me
I'd look right up at night
And all I'd see was darkness
Now I see the stars alright
I wanna reach right up and grab one for you
When the lights went down in your house
Yeah that made me happy
The sweat I make for you
Yeah...I think you know where that comes from
How could she look so good(So good)
How could she be so fine
Estranged:
So nobody ever told you baby
How it was gonna be
So what'll happen to you baby
Guess we'll have to wait and see
I don't know how you're s'posed
To find me lately
An what more could tou ask from me
How could you say that I never needed you
When you took everything
Said you took everything from me
When I find out all the reasons
Maybe I'll find another way
Find another day
With all the changing seasons of my life
Maybe I'll get it right next time
An now that you've been broken down
Got your head out of the clouds
You're back down on the ground
And you don't talk so loud
An you don't walk so proud
Any more, and what for
Well I jumped into the river
Too many times to make it home
I'm out here on my own, an drifting all alone
If it doesn't show give it time
To read between the lines
'Cause I see the storm getting closer
And the waves they get so high
Seems everything We've ever known's here
Why must it drift away and die
I'll never find anyone to replace you
Guess I'll have to make it thru, this time- Oh this time
Without you
I knew the storm was getting closer
And all my friends said I was high
But everything we've ever known's here
I never wanted it to die
You could be mine:
I'm a cold heartbreaker, fit to burn,
And I'll rip your heart in two,
And I'll leave you lying on the bed,
I'll be out the door before you wake,
It's nothing new to you,
'Cause I think we've seen that movie too
