Tell me the story of a boy who lived in Hell
Trapped in silence
No one there to keep him sane
Clandestine pain
Total absence
Coming back from the dead
Into a world of sorrow
Making no sense
Hear the voices in his head
See through his eyes

Pass through the gateway of a banished citadel
No turning backwards
Pray for mercy to be free an unchained soul
Disembodied
When are you coming home
You've been away too long
Too far you've wandered
Through the shadows and the dark depths of your mind
 
Don't cry to me
If you loved me, you would be here with me
You want me? Come find me
Make up your mind
Should I let you fall, lose it all?
So maybe you can remember yourself
Can't keep believing, we're only deceiving ourselves
And I'm sick of the lie
And when you're in need of someone my heart won't deny you, so many seem so lonely with no one left to cry to,
So don't you cry tonight, don't you ever cry
No don't you cry tonight
 
Dig that little waitress
She's just trying to impress us
Cuz she's got that money fever
And she doesn't make a sound
She's just hanging around..
Hanging around...
 
I could give a hundred million reasons to build a barricade
Blame it on the changing of the seasons, the thoughts that I convey
Doesn't make it all right to roll it over my soul, leave me here, roll it over my soul, leave here
Look at all the plastic people who live without a care
Come to sit with me around my table but never bring a chair
Doesn't make it all right to roll it over my soul, leave me here
 
Some people will cut you 'til you're bleeding
But not me, because I just wanna do it to myself
I'm just checking it up, baby, one more time for you
Checking it up until the pile hits the sky
Well, even the best years are a waste of time
But, baby, I'm a big star now
 
I can feel the darkness fall
Like the rain against the wind blows
And I can hear your memory like a
Dream outside my window babe
Even though I know you're gone
I don't have to be alone now
You're here with me every night
When I turn out my lights
 
Looking for a ride to your secret location
Where the kids are setting up a free-speed nation, for you
Got a foghorn and a drum and a hammer that's rockin'
And a cord and a pedal and a lock, that'll do me for now

It better work out
I hope it works out my way
'Cause it's getting kind of quiet in my city's head
Takes a teen age riot to get me out of bed right now

You better look it
We're gonna shake it
Up to him

He acts the hero
We paint a zero
On his hand
 
Give me one reason to stay here
And I'll turn right back around
Give me one reason to stay here
And I'll turn right back around
Said I don't want to leave you lonely
You got to make me change my mind
I threw my hands in the air and said show me something
He said if you dare come a little closer
............
Not really sure how to feel about it something in the way you move
Makes me feel like I can't live without you
It takes me all the way
I want you to stay
 
No I can't forget tomorrow
When I think of all my sorrow
When I had you there but then I let you go
And now it's only fair that I should let you know
What you should know

I can't live, if living is without you
I can't live, I can't give anymore
I can't live, if living is without you
I can't give, I can't give anymore
 
There's four new colours in the rainbow
An old man's taking Polaroids
But all he captures is endless rain, endless rain, endless rain
He says, "Listen"
He takes my head, and puts my ear to his
And I swear I can hear the sea
Sometimes, when I look in your eyes I can see your soul
 
Oh Mandy, well you came without taking but I sent you a way,
Oh Mandy well you kissed me and stopped me from shaking and I need you today,
Oh Mandy
 
When you love somebody and the love grows cold
The sun starts shining when you let it all go
There's a certain kinda hurting only time can heal
That's a pretty good picture of the way I feel

I'm a little bit hurt but a lot more free
I ain't sayin' that you never took a toll on me
For what it's worth, I can finally see
That I'm a little bit hurt but a lot more free
Yeah, I'm a little bit hurt but a lot more free

From this mountain, I can see so far
Rivers running like deep, deep scars
Carrying the lifeblood through my veins
Is it crazy that I'm grateful for all the pain?
 
Saw Cinderella in a party dress but
She was looking for a night gown
I saw the devil wrapping up his hands
He's getting ready for the show down
I saw the ending were they turned the page
I threw my money and I ran away
Strait to the valley of the great divide
And where the dreams roll high
And where the wind don't blow
Out here the good girls die
And the sky won't snow
Out here the bird don't sing
Out here the field don't grow
Out here the bell don't ring
Out here the bell don't ring
Out here the good girls die
Now Cinderella don't you go to sleep
Its such a bitter form of refuge
Ah don't you know the kingdoms under siege
And everybody needs you
Is there still magic in the midnight sun
Or did you leave it back in sixty-one
In the of the cadence in the young mans eyes
And where the dreams roll high
 
Back
