All Fall Down

I hear you live with a ball and chain
A bottle of whisky as your only friend
Was it the love you couldn’t hold on to
That’s made you wander the empty streets
With the dregs of humanity

And they all fell down in the rain
And they all fell down when he came
To break off the ball and chain

They say Moses, had something to prove
For forty days he walked through the wilderness
He took so long the people of Israel grew tired
Waiting for their God to make up his mind

And they all fell down in the rain
And they all fell down when he came
To break off the ball and chain

Someone will come
But not as before
To open up your heart

And they all fell down in the rain
And they all fell down when he came
To break off the ball and chain

 

Talk to You

I can’t talk to you no I can’t talk to you
I don’t know how I’m gonna survive
When I see you I start shaken inside
I want to talk to you

I used to think I was so smart
But when your around I’m losin' control of my heart
I’ve been told I could talk all day
But when I’m with you I can’t think of one thing to say

I want to talk to you

I feel so weak but I don’t care about sex
I feel so weak I hope I don’t frighten you
All I want to do all I want to do is just talk talk talk talk to you

I used to think I was so cool
But when you're around I feel like a fool
You’ve become an obsession
Now I want you as my possession

I want to talk to you

I feel so weak but I don’t care about sex
I feel so weak I hope I don’t frighten you
All I want to do all I want to do is just talk talk talk talk to you



Last One to Know

I would love to see you cry
I would love to see you breakdown
Now that I know you told her
Together you will go
Oh why was I the last one to know

I would love to see you hurtin'
Just like the way you hurt me
I know I shouldn’t say it
'Cause my wicked heart will show
But why was I the last one to know

Oh my, my oh my, Oh why was I the last one to know

I would love to see your tears
For just that one moment I would feel good
And I know I shouldn’t say it
So I’ll just let you go
But why was I the last one to know

Oh my, my oh my, oh why was I the last one to know

 

She Wants You Back

I awoke and you were gone
So I fell into a dream
There you were with her
The pretty face
The one who treated you so mean

She wants you back again
But you can’t go
She wants you back again
But you must tell her no oh oh oh

Late last night I heard the telephone ring
And you were talking so long
Oooooo my baby don’t stay away
Did I ever treat you wrong

She wants you back again
But you can’t go
She wants you back again
But you must tell her no oh oh oh

You could stay....don’t walk away.....please don’t go

She wants you back again
But you can’t go
She wants you back again
But you must tell her no oh oh

She....you can’t go....you can’t go....you can’t go


 
Little Bird

You said you loved me but you had to be free
And so I let you go
We walked together through the frozen garden
And left our hearts buried in the snow

One last time little bird over the land
I wish I could fly away, like you do
You can be free, If you do all you can
But if ever you need me, you know I’ll be here for you

We had a dream that held our hearts together
But you went looking for the sun
That winter’s day has turned a misty gray
clouded up our love and taken you away

One last time little bird over the land
I wish I could fly away like you do
You can be free if you do all you can
But if ever you need me you know I’ll be here for you

 

In My World

You say things that make me crazy
I don’t want to be around you anymore
You do things that could hurt everybody
You're just thinking of yourself and how to make money

You take all the love out of the World
I don’t want to see you in my World

You hold the key to the lock on the future
It doesn’t matter what you do though
It’s gonna be a disaster
You can’t control us you never could
We’re not gonna stick around while you do your dirt

You take all the love out of the world
I don’t want to see you in my world

 

Somebody Else

No more danger now I can sleep I’ve found somebody who’s
Taking me deep. Down down I’m going, into his well,
I’ve found myself, in somebody else

Somebody Else, been lovin' me
Somebody Else, better than you
Somebody Else, been holdin' me tight
Somebody Else, been doin' it right

I don’t care if you say that I’m mean and cruel
If you were in my shoes I’d like to see what you’d do
 


The Letter

If you only hadn’t said the letter
Was on its way to me
Then it wouldn’t really have mattered at all
That the letter I’d never see

You said that you couldn’t tell me all you had to say
And so you put it in a letter and you sent it off my way

Waiting for you in a letter
Waiting for you in a letter
Waiting for you in a letter
Waiting for you in a letter

I thought that we’d been happy
But now something inside my head
Is telling me that maybe you 
Wanted somebody else instead

Didn’t I feel you hesitating 
When I asked you if it could be so
And now I’m waiting for a letter
That I know will never show

Waiting for you in a letter

 

I Remember

You were the one who tried to make a fool of me  ooooo ooo my love
Now your tears are fallen cause I’ve found another one  ooo ooo my love

I remember such a long time ago   I remember when you told me so
Tears were fallin' on my heart when you said we must part I remember

I know it’s not been easy you have hard times it’s true
Why do you hang around here do you think I still want you

I remember such a long time ago I remember when you told me no
Tears were fallin' on my heart when you said we must part I remember

Waiting so long waiting so long

I know I should forgive you but I just can’t forget
If I let you come back to me please don’t forget

I remember such a long time ago
I remember I remember

 

Caught in the Act

Dear Miss Lonely Hearts I told my boyfriend we were through
I really didn’t mean it but I wanted to see what he would do
He didn’t even notice I was gone He didn’t even beg me to stay
He was so cold and I told him so but he had nothing to say

Yesterday I decided that I’d better make it up to him
I knocked on his door and there was no answer and so I opened it and walked in

Caught in the Act     it could have been anybody
Caught in the Act     I know it wasn’t me
Caught in the Act     He was wasting no time gettin' free

Dear Delores it’s so sad to think it could have happened to you
It’s irritating and I bet you're mad but I can’t tell you what to do
Maybe he never cared at all maybe he’s just confused
But I don’t want to think about him I’m just worrying about you

I’d let the whole situation evaporate into thin air
Try not to think about him, wasn’t he a problem anyway, and he was so stupid he was

Caught in the Act     it could have been anybody
Caught in the Act     I know it wasn’t me
Caught in the Act     He was wasting no time getten free

 

Idiot

I’m just an idiot over you when I see you a holocaust goes off in here
I can’t get off this train going nowhere where I fear you won’t be 
Is where I’m going

I’m beggin' you to reconsider....take pity on me..... just stick around and I’ll deliver 
The cat is out of the bag

I can’t stop thinking of you what is this making me do the things I do
I’ll never be the same not with you there when I try to walk away
I’m not going anywhere

I’m beggin' you to reconsider.....take pity on me.....just stick around and I’ll deliver
The cat is out of the bag

I’m just an Idiot over you when I see you a holocaust goes off in here
I'd put you out of my mind but you stay there can I keep my thoughts from you
I know they're showin'

I’m beggin' you to reconsider.....take pity on me.....just stick around and I’ll deliver
The cat is out of the bag



Psychotic Disorders

What makes you think you're my best friend
I got what I wanted and I don’t need to see you again
I just used you for what I needed 
I don’t care about you I just care about me

Psychotic Disorders I don’t want to be free 
Psychotic Disorders
They're here inside of me, they keep me company
And I don’t want to be free

Why have you been hanging around here
Well I go solitary I don’t let anybody get near
Maybe you think that I’m real pretty
But don’t get too close cause I’ll just treat you shitty

Psychotic Disorders I don’t want to be free
Psychotic Disorders
They're here inside of me, they keep me company
And I don’t want to be free

If you want what’s bad for you 
I guess I could be your dream come true

Psychotic Disorders I don’t want to be free
Psychotic Disorders they're here inside of me
And I don’t want to be free because they keep me company
