Those Were Not the Days

They were talking about the days when
Things weren't what they used to be
They were talking about the days when
Things weren't what they ought to
Should have been
Those were not the days
The stumbling through the haze
Those dark and ending times
The long and winding lines
That we stood on
And those were not the days
They should have been
Back in town
There was no more town
Most of the people
They weren't around
Rounded up
Or dead from the plague
Or sick from the poison
And lying by their grave
And those were not the days
They should have been
Think of all the people
That you'd see
Well before your heart
Began to harden now
There's only you and
Themandme
And we're feeling
Our way to the garden
I don't know
Do you know?
I don't know
Do you know?
I'm so
They were talking about the days when
Things weren't what they used to be
They were talking about the days when
Things weren't what they ought to
Should have been
Those were not the days
The stumbling through the haze
Those dark and ending times
The long and winding lines
That we stood on
And those were not the days
They should have been

The World

The world
Is standing in the rain
O' can you feel the pain
Of the world
The world
Is tired of the kings
And all the evil things
In the world
The world
Is waiting for the queen
To come and make it clean
Soon you'll all see
What I mean
Every thing is everywhere
Everywhere is all the time
There is never any time
There's only places
There is never any time
There's all these spaces
There is never any time
No time
Only places
The world
Is standing in the rain
O' can you feel the pain
Of the world
The world
Is tired of the kings
And all the evil things
In the world
The world
Is waiting for the queen
To come and make it clean
Soon you 'll all see
What I mean
What I mean
The end is not the end
Is not the end is not the end
And when , my friend ,
We get there we'll be free
For the end is not the end
And it's not useful to pretend
It's not the end
You'll see
It's not the end
You'll see
You'll see

Going
03:53
|

Out in the open field
People want to keep it real
People want to keep it real
Everybody knows it's going
Even the old tycoon
Couldn 't get away too soon
Couldn't get away too soon
Everybody knows it's going
Everybody knows it's going ( down)
Out on the open trail
Riding him out on a rail
Everybody knows it's going ( down)
Everybody knows it's going
Everybody knows it's going ( down)
Even the old tycoon
Couldn't get away too soon
Riding him out on a rail
Everybody knows it's going
Everybody knows it's going (down)
Everybody knows it's going (down)

Babylon the great has fallen
You've become a dwelling place
For many demons
You're a cage for every
Contaminated spirit
You're a cage for every filthy bird
Babylon the great has fallen
You're destruction came within
A single hour
You were cast down fiercely
In pure violence
Never ever more to be found
No tune of any sort
Shall be heard from you again
No craft of any type
Shall be found in you again
No light from a burning lamp
Shall shine from you again
Babylon the great has fallen
You're destruction came within
A single hour
You're a cage for every
Contaminated spirit
You're a cage for every filthy bird
Babylon the great has fallen
It's fine the end times
Have already come and gone
Now I wait here in my kitchen
Playing this here song
When the trumpets play to remind us
We did ourselves in
Now we 're punished for our sins
The skies are dark and endless
The rivers flow with blood
My water supply is poisoned
My time is nearly hung
When the trumpets play to remind us
We did ourselves in
Now we're punished for our sins
This is punishment for our sins

The Day

The day
It came as no surprise
The day
I had to close my eyes
There was no turning back
I think they missed a spot
I think they missed a crack
I think they missed a hole
To hide
Come inside
Dry your eyes don 't say a thing
About the thing
It was the day that came to stay
The day that never went away
That terrible staring eye
Hanging up there in the sky
We tried to hide our plan
I took you by the hand
And we ran

Everyone's Awake
04:13
|

Everyone's awake
But I'll never feel the same
And no one's on my side
And no one's on my mind
Lying on the bed
And I think I see the end
I can 't believe the words
I think she almost said
Crazy when the sun goes down
Feeling like a circle
When ther 'es no one around
Dragging my head around town
Around town
Dress up in my favorite gown
Don't do it
Digging up a hole in the ground
Don't do it
Feeling like a circle
When the sun goes down
Dragging my head around town
Around town around
Don't do it now
Don't do it now
Don't do it now
Everyone's awake
But I'll never feel the same
And no one 's on my side
And no one's on my mind
Lying on the bed
And I think I see the end
I can 't believe the words
I think she almost said
Crazy when the sun goes down
Feeling like a circle
When ther'es no one around
Dragging my head around town
Aroundtown
Dress up in my favor ite gown
Don't do it
Digging up a hole in the ground
Don't do it
Feeling like a circle
When the sun goes down
Dragging my head around town
Around town around town
Around town around town
Around town around
Don't do it now
Don't do it now
Don't do it now ...

My Heart
03:01
|
|||
The ocean is cold
And deep and dark
The eyes that look up
They pierce my heart
My heart is cold
Like the ocean 's floor
My heart is washed
Upon the shore
The rocky shore
It breaks my back
I'm tossed about
In a burlap sack
This burlap sack
Is rough and worn
I stumble in
Out of the storm
The thunder storm
It hurts my bones
I'm cold and wet
And all alone
The ocean is cold
And deep and dark
The eyes that look up
They pierce my heart
My heart is cold
Like the ocean 's floor
My heart is washed
Upon the shore
The rocky shore
It breaks my back
I'm tossed about
In a burlap sack
This burlap sack
Is rough and worn
I stumble in
Out of the storm
The thunder storm
It hurts my bones
I'm cold and wet
And all alone

Free
03:41
|
|||
People say that they want to be free
But they 're afraid of being lonely
But they want to be free
And they want to keep it real
Lonely 's just a word
If you're not lonesome
And if you're feeling lonesome
Then you can 't be free
Repeat after me
I'm not afraid to be free
I'm never alone
I've got my own company
Don't forget the eye up in the sky
Upin the sky
And the secret people living
In the shadows of the trees
Don't forget the trees
You'll be down on your
Knees in no time
You're never alone
Even when you 're free
Lonely 's just a word
If you 're not lonesome
And if you 're feeling lonesome
Then you can't be free
Repeat after me
I'm not afraid to be free
I'm never alone
I've got my own company
Don't forget the eye up in the sky
Up in the sky
And the secret people living
In the shadows of the trees
Don't forget the trees
You'll be down on your
Knees in no time
You're never alone
Even when you 're free
You're never alone
Even when you 're free

Sad But True
04:24
|

I know a story
It's sad but true
I know a story
It's all about you
You
The sky filled with darkness
The moon was new
I stood in the doorway
Sad but true
I was sad but true
My eyes
Lifted me higher
My mind
Into the fire
Burning all my
Burning all of my desire
Away
I'm so happy I can see
What I can see
I'm so happy I can see
What I can see
I'm so happy I can see
What I can see
I'm so happy I can see
What I can see
Andi can see
What I can see
My eyes filled with darkness
My face was blue
I floated down the river
Sad but true
I was sad but true
My eyes
Lifted me higher
My mind
Into the fire
Burning all my
Burning all of my desire
Away

Evil Doers

Evil doers
Doing evil deeds
Are we adrift or
Stranded in the weeds
Murderers and thieves
What tangled webs they weave
As they sow the seeds
Of their destruction

Socket To the Man
02:48
|
|||
Put me in your beaker
Play me through your speaker
Wear me like a tired over motorized
Sneaker
The world's a giant package
With everything on sale
If you order on the phone
You can get it in the mail
We've all been liquidated
We've been laid out on the line
We forget we're all related
We're related all the time
In the castle is a princess
She's the apple of my eye
But my mouth is full of marbles
And I'm fixing up to die
So take me as your sample
Protect me if you can
Got to set a good example
Got to sock it to the man
Got to sock it to the man ..
