Chlorine 05:53
I am stone Can't be moved More mountain than man More mountain than man Can't be moved Still I'll take you away Our great escape We'll move like the waves We'll move like the waves Always crashing Without a home I am no one Without you I am no one I'm out of touch Out of your touch I'm out of touch Out of your touch So take my hand And take what you can Tomorrow's the day Tomorrow's the day It all will change Parce que Tu as vingt ans Que tu croques la vie Comme en un fruit vermeil Que l'on cueille en riant Without a home I am no one Without you I am no one I'm out of touch Out of your touch I'm out of touch Out of your touch I'm out of touch Out of your touch I'm out of touch Out of your touch

Eyes Open 03:39
When my eyes do open I see you just as God intended A smile in your eyes Your body an extension of this earth Your legs are roots uprooted from the dirt You lean your back against the tree We both climbed up when we were young Now we're older at the bottom Waiting, waiting for our time to come Darkness is the place where I was Going gone insane, yes I was Lost could not remain, yes I was Going gone insane, yes I was Yes I was, yes I was Fighting for a life I had no recollection of Teasing and sleazing my way it was easy Believe me, don't leave me I screamed to the scenery Seeing the love that one needs fall away from me How could I take it, the more that I faked it The more that the time and the place became meaningless Seemingly endless and senseless and this is the point where I laid my head down to pray Not knowing what to say just waiting for angels to sing Darkness is the place where I was Going gone insane, yes I was Lost could not remain, yes I was Going gone insane, yes I was Yes I was, yes I was When my eyes open I see you

Lies 02:34
Lights down, blackout at the bar Your eyes find me thru the dark Whisper lust in my ear Love somebody I could love somebody here Smoke falls, fills the emptiness Your lungs breathing out regrets My life in faithful ignorance Of love lust wanting, could you be next I tell you that I need you so badly And I need you to tell me that you need me so badly When I'm deep in your body I want you tell me I need you to tell me oh please God tell me your I see your body perfect Lips down your smooth stomach Is this love, is this temporary? You can't remember my name can ya? I tell you that I need you so badly And I need you to tell me that you need me so badly When I'm deep in your body I want you tell me I need you to tell me oh please God tell me your Lies lies lies lies lies lies lies Tell me lies lies lies lies lies lies lies Is this what I've wanted An empty life with empty promises Nothing good can come from it But an empty life with empty promises I tell you that I need you so badly And I need you to tell me that you need me so badly When I'm deep in your body I want you tell me I need you to tell me oh please God tell me your Lies lies lies lies lies lies lies Tell me lies lies lies lies lies lies lies

Waiting 04:10
Laying in bed with my eyes closed tight Trying to sleep I cannot sleep tonight Thoughts running wild I cannot concentrate Some sort of uneasiness creeps on me Is it death? Always on my mind Why, why death? Why can't I hide? Lay down my head begging to go to sleep Waiting for all of the answers to come to me Thoughts of my demise slowly intertwine With the vision of my late grandmothers eyes Why was I too young to realize that she was gone? Well I regret to this day not telling her how much she was loved Is there a God and where will I go These are the questions I have in my soul And if there is one why would he choose to ostracize me And if there is not why would I not still live peacefully? Lay down my head begging to go to sleep Waiting for all of the answers to come to me Well maybe I'll come back as a greater being Or hopefully something I ain't ever seen Thoughts of all the possibilities Fill my mind and lull me down to sleep Lay down my head begging to go to sleep Waiting for all of the answers to come to me

Killin' Song 02:37
I don't know just what I have done, my love I don't know just what I have done When I heard that man had taken advantage I don't know just what I have done Cause I drank too much whiskey and rum, my love I drank too much whiskey and rum When I saw that man who had taken advantage I drank too much whiskey and rum Well I woke up to my boots all caked in mud, my love Woke up to my boots all caked in mud Shovel and blood all locked in my trunk My boots all caked in mud I killed that man with my hands, my love I killed that man with my hands And I'd do it again if given the chance Cause some men just weren't meant to live Now the lawman is asking after me, my love The lawman asking after me If he comes asking 'round won't you tell him that I'm out And you don't know just what I've done

Visions 04:01
In the early dawn as the birds begin their song I lay my head down, weary and worn As these visions of you carry me along No more waiting, no more wasting any more time No more waiting, no more wasting any more time As these visions of you carry me along

Ramones 03:01
I don't care if you're here anymore You could've already gone Out of that door And I can't hear what you're saying to me I can't even believe I ever did before Standing alone with you Standing alone with you Your apparition echoes It comes It goes I don't care if you're here anymore You could've already gone Out of that door And I can't hear what you're saying to me I can't even believe I ever did before Your apparition echoes It comes It goes If you won't leave then I'll go Cause I'm under your shadow And I'm lost in your soul Standing alone with you Standing alone with you
