1.Carry Me Away V1

Today i went & bought myself a bottle
...like we used to do
Reminded me of you.

Today i saw a train roll by a river
Blowing off her steam
Reminded me of me
That's when i threw the bottle in the river
Then i started running for the train

Carry me away carry me away

Its seven o nine california time
Whoever said it was a small world was either a liar or a fool
Cause it's not true
And any promise you'd make is as easy to break
As the plastic people on a wedding cake so says you
But you know, i do

Time and time and time and time away i hear you thinking
Time and time and time and time
We' keep trying crying lying and drinking
Carry me away carry me away


2.Carry Me Away V2

Today i went & bought myself a bottle,
Like we used to do,
Reminded me of you.

Today i saw a train roll by the river,
Blowing off the steam,
Reminded me of me.

That's when i threw the bottle in the river.
That's when i started running for the train.

There's nothing that you need i can't deliver,
Carry me away, carry me away.

Make it seven o nine california time,
Whoever said it was a small world was either a liar or a fool,
Cause it's not true.

And any promise we make is as easy to break
As the plastic people on a wedding cake so says you
But you know, i do.

I hear you thinking,
From far away.
If ya keep lying & crying & trying & drinking,
I'm gonna carry me away, carry me away.

If you think about me,
From far away,
I hope you find it with me or without me.
Carry me away, carry me away,
Carry me away, carry me away,
Carry me away, carry me away.


3.God Is A Bullet

There's a green plaid jacket on the back of the chair
It's like a moment frozen forever there

Mom and dad had a lot of big plans for their little man
'...so proud.'
Mama's gone crazy 'cause her baby's shot down
By some teenage car chase war out of bounds
It was the wrong place wrong time wrong end of a gun.

Shoot straight from the hip
Gone forever in a trigger slip
You know, it could have been
It could have been your brother.
Shoot straight shoot to kill
Blame each other, blame yourselves
God is a bullet have mercy on us everyone

They're gonna call me sir they'll all stop picking on me
Well i'm a high school grad i'm over 5 foot 3
I'll get a badge and a gun and i'll join the p.d.
They'll see
He didn't have to use the gun they put in his hand
But when the guy came at him, well he panicked and ran
And it's thirty long years before they give him another chance
And it's sad sad sad

John lennon, doctor king, harvey milk
All for goddamn nothing
God is a bullet have mercy on us everyone


4.Happy Birthday

Outside in the hall there's a catfight
It's well after midnight
I guess i'll be allright
I'm laid out on the floor
Drunk and ppor
How much longer how much more

Rock me to sleep
Strong & deep.
The screaming cats they give me the creep
But aside from all that i feel no pain
Staring up at the ceiling stains
...neon in the window
...sirens far away
...news on the radio happy birthday happy birthday happy
birthday

They're at it again next door
This whole floor i swear
They're out to drive me crazy
Not right now i'm high as a cloud i'm soft and gray and lazy
...neon in the window
...sirens far away
...news on the radio happy birthday happy birthday happy
birthday

Fly me
Out the window.
Somewhere far away
Singing on the radio


5.Help Me V1

Maybe it's just a phase
The days and the nights and the nights and the days
Of tossing and turning and buring and churning
Inside my brain

Or, maybe i'm finally insane
But i don't know who to believe anymore
It's like i'm caught in some revolving door
Over and over and over and over

....teach me how to pray.
....tell me what to say
Help me help me help me find my way

I never could play the game
And all their faces look the same
And i won't give up
Won't give in
You know i never want to be like them i'm
Ticking away like time
Out of sync and out of my mind
Well i used to know a truth from a lie
Just by
Looking in your eyes
Lies

....carry me away
....farther and farther and farther everyday

Help me help me help me find my way

Hanging by a thread
And waves of confusion break down on my head
When i think of all the things you said well the words
Fall
Dead

....higher every day
....a price i swear i'll never pay no way

Help me help me help me find my way


6.Help Me V2

Your lyrics to 'help me' are wrong as are most of the ones from
free, but i
Couldn't let you keep the wrong lyrics to the best concrete
blonde song on
The home page. the lyrics are as follows:

Maybe it's twist of fate
But the days and the nites and the nites and days
Are all tossing and turning and turning and burning inside my
brain
Maybe i'm finally insane, but i dont know what i believe anymore
Its like im caught in some revolving door going over and over
and over and
Over and
Teach me how to pray
Tell me what to say
Help me
Help me
Help me find my way
I never could play their games
You know that all their faces look the same
And i wont give up wont give in
You know i never want to be like them
Well im ticking away like time
You know im out of synch and im out of my mind
You know i used to know a truth from a lie just by looking in
their eyes
Carry me away
Further and further and further every day
Help me
Help me
Help me find my way
Im hanging by a thread
And the waves of confusion fall down on my head
And when i think of all the things you said
Well the words fall dead
Higher every day
A price i swore id never pay
Help me
Help me
Help me find my way
Help me find my way, way, way....


7.Its Only Money

You don't believe in love
You don't believe in hatred
Put your money in the bank
It's the only way to save it

You try to make a buck
But you haven't made a penny
You need a little luck
But you know you won't get any

You don't believe in god
You don't believe in glory
You've got a brother in the clinic
Tells the same kind of story

If he had another life
He'd know what would be waiting
If he had another soul
He could sell it all to satan

You don't believe in war
You don't believe in jesus
Got a sister in new york
She knows how she pleases

Walking the streets
On the south side of the city
Trying to make ends meet
Isn't that a pity...for money


8.Little Conversations

The little conversation
Is over very soon
And i watch in admiration
From my corner of the room.
They shine on you with starry eyes...
They rain a friendly storm.
Like kids around a christmas tree
And then you smile all nice and warm

The little conversations
If i tried my very best
You know i never could say anything
In twenty words or less.
Somewhere, sometime, down the line
Someday i may confess,
And spill it all. that's all

The little conversations
On me are very rough
They leave me all in pieces
You know there's never time enough
Like a book with missing pages
Like a story incomplete
Like a painting left unfinished
It feels like not enough to eat.
Starvin'

These little conversations
Well for me they'll never do
Now what am i supposed to do with
Broken sentences of you?
I'll stay in my corner 'cause
That's all that i can do
And let the others speak for me.
Little conversations
Are we.


9.Run Run Run

You go crazy
You get tossed
You go running around
Until you know you're gonna fall off
He knows what you need he, knows how much, how much you want

Knock familiar,
Welcome in,
Can't believe that you let him
Introduce you as a friend.
But you're always polite
In case you need him again
No not again,
No not again.

Can't believe the way i see you
Run, run, run,
Can't believe the way you bleed when you
Run, run, run,
Are you having fun?
Run-

Hands are shaking. lips are cracked
You swore (i heard you swear) that you were
Never coming back, but...
One more time. just one more night
And once again, you lost the fight
Fight
So fight a little harder now.

Can't believe the way you bleed when you
Run, run, run
Can't believe the way you need to
Run, run, run
Are you still as young as you started
When you started to run?

Can't believe the way i see you
Run, run, run,
Can't believe the way you bleed when you
Run, run, run,
Are you having fun?
Run, run, run,
'till you drop.


10.Scene Of A Perfect Crime

My eyes are jaded and complicated,
Tired of the liars and the masqueraded
Who steals our innocence away,
Like a thief in the night?
Who took away our faith in what we know to be right?
That was another world, then
That was another time
You can never go back to the scene of a perfect crime.

Whatever became of the child i was
I never want to lose her no
I won't give her up
And now my heart is harder,
My skin is getting tougher and tougher
That was another world then
That was another time
You can never go back to the place where love is blind
You can never go back to the scene of a perfect crime

Whatever became of our sweet blind love
As long as we could be together it was more than enough
Now we're all grown up and we need so much
I never knew that the price would go up as such
That was another world then, then
That was another time

Well you can never go back to the place where love is blind.
Well you can never go back to the place where love is blind.
Well you can never go back to the place where love is blind.
You can never go back to the scene of a perfect crime.


11.Sun

Part the dark and chase it gone
You're the sweet and sunny one
As bright as any star tonight.
You smile like a beam of light
You can
Show me a ray
Show me a ray
Show me a ray
Show me a ray of
Sun.
Just until the morning comes
I'm the gray and cloudy one
Raining for so long, so long
Like a candle blowing in a storm
But you can
Show me a ray
Show me a ray
Show me a ray
Show me a ray
Of
Sun.
