1. Not Today

so some are in color
some are black and white
and if you ask me if i'm going, well...
i might say "i might"
but not today

the same happened to you
the same as a dog
just when you thought you were going...
all you got was fog
not today
you know the last time i looked
it looked mostly gray
but after the winter i can't really say
not today

and the master of puppets
who had just lost an eye
asked me if he could
put a glass one in and sorta
drive right by I said "not today"

he loves power
he loves driving in the night
he loves power (power)
he loves putting up a fight
but not today

so you finally convinced him
that his real name was Sue
and now that he knows that he doesn't really know what to do
not today




2. Coming Round

you fly in i die and you call to me
southbound and I'm down and lost
in the sea but

i'm coming round
i'm free as a bird
i'm coming down
i'm free as a bird shot down

over the big rainbow behind the shed
i'll find the lost secret before I'm dead
yeah

i'm coming round
i'm free as a bird yeah
i'm coming down
i'm free as a bird shot down

over the big rainbow now I can see
southbound is my town
and it looks just like me




3. Empty

i crossed the line
i picked the vine
and i had the wine that left me full
tripped on a wire
fell in the fire
and caused a blaze inside my skull

oh storybook
will you bring me anything
before my life is feeling empty
oh storybook
will you bring me up again
before my life is feeling empty again

the cover ripped
the slipper slipped
and all the animals came running
just one more page...
and I hope my age
will help me when I set it down

i looked a little closer
seemed more like a tease
and when i tried to keep it
it only made me wheeze
it stopped just like clockwork
i really could care
cause if i had my way about it
i wouldn't even have been there

oh storybook
will you bail me out today
before my life is feeling empty
oh storybook
will you help me out today
before my life is feeling empty




4. Drop The Gun

please drop the gun
drop it




5. Allison

over the day i would listen i would play
and far beyond the dawn you left a message of slight alarm
so all the answers came and how they ran me down
and you were nowhere to be found
and all the pleases left beyond the waterfall
it left us wanting every wall

please drop the gun
you never wanted allison
please drop the gun
you never needed allison

i was afraid it was the end of the day
and i had to run i saw a spot forming on the sun
but i could feel the touch before it reached his chest
and i knew what was best
but i refused to believe it could be true
then all the colors saw it too

please drop the gun
you never wanted allison
please drop the gun
you never needed allison

so i found a key
you know they say its darkest just before the dawn
but not a warning of how long
so if you'll please forgive my own simplicity
i'll continue to be free

please drop the gun
you never wanted allison
please drop the gun
you never needed allison




6. Maybe

at almost any time there's too much on my mind
so much it makes it hard to think
and just like most any day the same things come my way
and after all i'm on the brink
but i'm paralyzed by something less
and i can't get over emptiness
so i dull the pain and ease my brain and the time i'm
feeling strain of something

if i had the time to ease my mind then maybe
i would fly
if i had a way to help me stay then maybe
i would fly

so once again today i got in line to pay
for everything i ever do
even tho i feel alright and i've said i love my life
i'm happy when i think of you
but i'm still afraid to leave my cage
and i just can't seem to turn the page
you know i'm feeling every bit my age
and just can't put my finger on that something

if i make believe its summer time then maybe
i would fly
if i ever knew it would be fine then maybe
i would fly
if i had the time to ease my mind then maybe
i would fly

my life's just one big roller coaster
i ride and ride it carries me
but i'm free...
to be lonely again




7. She Was Alone

a written guaranty
no, don't need it. well, might need it yeah
a home in germany
a perfect forgery
a colored history

well i threw my flag in the wishing well
paid my own way to show and tell
climbed up high and i wish i'd feel
and i ended up in hell

she was alone
and i never thought about it when i had her on the phone
she was alone
i could cry out every day but it won't bring her home

negative gravity
to surf in hawaii
a little sympathy
a lack of honesty

well i threw my flag in the wishing well
paid my own way to show and tell
climbed up high and i wish i'd feel
and i ended up in hell

she was alone
and i never thought about it when i had her on the phone
she was alone
i could cry out every day but it won't bring her home

she was alone
and i never knew about it when i had her on the phone
she was alone
i could cry out every day but it won't bring her home




8. Angel Or Devil

alive just like a little song
then end it always comes along sometime
i can laugh i can cry
i'm an angel or a devil
i can live i can die
i'm an angel or a devil

i can tell and all i'd like to understand
but that's just not the way its planned
and all i'll never understand
on this side of the promised land

breathe and take it all in
the air and the poison it just depends
i can lose i can find
i'm an angel or devil
i can see i am blind
i'm an angel or devil
i can't tell

i can tell and all i'd like to understand
but that's just not the way its planned
and all i'll never understand
on this side of the promised land

and every day as life goes on
i'm free to choose from any right or wrong
but if i'm free
i only drag me down

i am free i am bound
i'm an angel or a devil
i am lost i am found
i'm an angel or a devil
i can see i am blind
i'm an angel or a devil
i can die but i'm alive
i'm an angel




9. You Don't Need Me Anymore

passed your house the other day
had to turn and look away
i guess there's nothing left to say
you don't need me anyway

didn't stop to wonder why
it always makes me want to cry
i just kept on driving by
you don't need me anyway

now you're gone
and i feel left over
like a four leaf clover in the rain
now you're gone
and you're on your own
you don't need me anyway

pour myself another wine
think about another time
i'll keep on and you'll be fine
you don't need me anyway
think of me i think of you
sky of gray and sky of blue
now there's nothing i can do

you don't need me anyway

now you're gone
and i feel left over
like a four leaf clover in the rain
now you're gone
and we're on our own
you don't need me anyway




10. Runaway

this place can blow my mind
but i come here every time
i little left of undefined
but running on alkaline

it looked good from far away
could it be could it be could it be my life
i couldn't help but disobey
i felt like a runaway
every reason not to stay

its where the wild ones go
she's about to kill me
yeah, pretty hard to overthrow
not much that's left of me
is this who i want to be

it looked good from far away
could it be could it be could it be my life
made it hard to disobey
i felt like a runaway
every reason not to stay

watching how they do it
learning every move
dressing up like elvis
but don't know how to groove
well telling me about music
and just what i should do
but rats in mazes bats in cages don't make kitchen stew
not for you




11. War Is...

line them up make them stand
let the people countermand
reaching for the upper hand
casting lots to rule the fairyland

war is love, war is hell

and in our minds we will never know
was it a show
and the magic gets stronger that keeps us from seeing in

start the clock fire the gun
i'll wait to see who will outrun
feeding on comparison
plastic faces stand up to the sun

and in our minds we will never know
was it a show
and the magic gets stronger that keeps us from seeing in

perfect tie perfect hair
perfect coach perfect stare
perfect speech perfect flair
perfect chill perfect scare
so i'm glad that its not me
who has the ring or holds the key
or has to call the family
or makes a mark on all eternity

and in our minds we will never know
was it a show
and the magic gets stronger that keeps us from seeing it

war is love war is hell




12. Message
