It's funny that way, you can get used
To the tears and the pain
What a child will believe
You never loved me

You can't hurt me now
I got away from you, I never thought I would
You can't make me cry, you once had the power
I never felt so good about myself

Seems like yesterday
I lay down next to your boots and I prayed
For your anger to end
Oh Father I have sinned

Maybe someday
When I look back I'll be able to say
You didn't mean to be cruel
Somebody hurt you too

There's something in the way she moves,
Or looks my way, or calls my name,
That seems to leave this troubled world behind.
If I'm feeling down and blue,
Or troubled by some foolish game,
She always seems to make me change my mind.
...
Every now and then the things I lean on lose their meaning,
And I find myself convening
In places where I should not let me go.
She has the power to go where no one else can find me,
Yes, and to silently remind me
Of the happiness and good times that I know
But I said I just got to know them

It isn't what she's got to say
Or how she thinks or where she's been.
To me, the words are nice, the way they sound.
I like to hear them best that way
It doesn't much matter what they mean,
Well she says them mostly just to calm me down.

And I feel fine anytime she's around me now,
She's around me now
Almost all the time.
If I'm well you can tell that she's been with me now,
And she's been with me now
Quite a long, long time
And I feel fine.

It's alright to make mistakes
You're only human
Inside everybody's hiding something

Staring at the same four walls
Have you tried to help yourself?
The rings around your eyes, they don't hide
That you need to get some rest

It's alright to make mistakes
You're only human
Inside everybody's hiding something

Take time to catch your breath and choose your moment

Don't slide

Even at a time like this
When the morning seems so far
Think that pain belongs to you
But it's happened to us all

Niggaz don't see I'm a 100% legit
And you know it ain't about all that bullshit
It's about f**kin' this bitch and that bitch
But not the bitch with the seven day itch, like that ho'
Just throwin' me the pussy
She says she wants to do it like a doggy
She's bad, nobody is badder
But she got more crabs than a seafood platter
Bitch on the gank move, to skizz me
Just to say "I got f**ked by "Eazy"
So I slapped the ho' like a pimp
I might be a women-beater but I'm not a pussy-eater
So when the shit hits the fan it's outta my mouth
You don't like what I'm talkin' about
All of ya'll can just suck my dick
You can quote me now 'cause I'm still talkin' shit ..

He came from somewhere back in her long ago
The sentimental fool don't see
Tryin' hard to recreate
What had yet to be created once in her life
...
She had a place in his life
He never made her think twice
As he rises to her apology
Anybody else would surely know
He's watching her go

But what a fool believes ... he sees
No wise man has the power to reason away
What seems ... to be
Is always better than nothing
And nothing at all keeps sending him ...

Somewhere back in her long ago
Where he can still believe there's a place in her life
Someday, somewhere, she will return

You're future bright
Beyond compare
It's rags to riches
Over there

San Andreas Fault
Moved it's fingers
Through the ground
Earth divided
Plates collided
Such an awful sound
...
Terra cotta shattered
And the walls came
Tumbling down

Oh promised land
Oh wicked ground
Build a dream
Tear it down

Do you want to flap your wings and fly away from here?

Princess, do you really wanna flap your wings and fly?
'Cause you've got time.
He keeps telling me, you've got time.
But I don't believe him, you've got time.
I keep on pushing harder,
I keep on pushing farther away.
But he keeps tellin' me, baby
He says baby, yeah.

You never turned around to see the frowns on the jugglers and the clowns
When they all come down and did tricks for you
You never understood that it ain't no good
You shouldn't let other people get your kicks for you
You used to ride on the chrome horse with your diplomat
Who carried on his shoulder a Siamese cat
Ain't it hard when you discover that
He really wasn't where its at
After he took from you everything he could steal.

How does it feel
How does it feel
To be on your own
With no direction home
Like a complete unknown
Like a rolling stone?

Father of mine
Tell me where have you been
You know I just close my eyes
My whole world disappeared

...

I remember blue skies
Walking the block
I loved it when you held me high
I loved to hear you talk

You would take me to the movies
You would take me to the beach
Take me to a place inside
That was so hard to reach

...

Sometimes you would send me a birthday card
With a five dollar bill
Yeah, I never understood you then
And I guess I never will

Daddy gave me a name
My daddy gave me a name
Then he walked away

...

I will never be safe
I will never be sane
I will always be weird inside
I will always be lame

Now I'm a grown man
With a child of my own
And I swear that im not gonna let her know
All the pain I have known

I may know the word but not say it
This may be the time but I might waste it
...
I recognize the walls inside I recognize them all
I've paced between them chasing demons down until they fall
In fitful sleep enough to keep their strength enough to crawl
Into my head with tangled threads they riddle me to solve again and again

These are days that you'll remember
When May is rushing over you
With desire to be part of the miracles
You see in every hour
You'll know it's true
That you are blessed and lucky
...
These are days
These are the days you might fill
With laughter until you break
These days you might feel
A shaft of light
Make its way across your face
And when you do
Then you'll know how it was meant to be
See the signs and know their meaning
It's true
Then you'll know how it was meant to be
Hear the signs and know they're speaking
To you, to you.
