Oh what dear daughter 'neath the sun;
Would treat a father so,;
To wait upon him hand and foot;
And always tell him, "No"?
And I can't let go, won't let go, and I can't let go no more.
Soon as a man is born, you know the sparks begin to fly, He gets wise in his own eyes and he's made to believe a lie.
Time is all I have to give
I hear the ancient footsteps like the motion of the sea;
Sometimes I turn, there's someone there, other times it's only me.
Any day now, any day now,;
I shall be released.
Have you got some unfinished business?;
Is there something holding you back?;
Are you thinking for yourself;
Or are you following the pack?
May you build a ladder to the stars;
And climb on every rung.
They tell me everything is gonna be all right;
But I don't know what "all right" even means
May you have a strong foundation;
When the winds of changes shift
Talk about perfection, I ain't never seen none
Lookin' at my shadow watching the colors up above
That's how it is when things disintegrate
It's all been designed, he said, "To make you lose your mind,;
And when you go back to find it, there's nothing there to find."
People tell me it's a sin;
To know and feel too much within.
There's only one step down from here, baby,;
It's called the land of permanent bliss.
You lose yourself, you reappear
Can you tell me what we're waiting for, senor?
Sometimes I wonder what it's gonna take;
To find dignity
My warehouse eyes, my Arabian drums,;
Should I leave them by your gate,;
Or, sad-eyed lady, should I wait?
I'm walking through streets that are dead
I was in a whirlwind, now I'm in some better place.
How did I meet you? I don't know.
Don't the moon look good, mama, Shinin' through the trees?
Do you know where we're headin'?;
Lincoln County Road or Armageddon?
Well my sense of humanity has gone down the drain
I saw a highway of diamonds with nobody on it
Someone showed me a picture and I just laughed;
Dignity never been photographed
