1. GONNA SEE MY FRIEND

Do you wanna hear something sick?
We are but victims of desire
I'm gonna shake this thing
I wanna shake this pain before I retire

I'm gonna see my friend,.. I'm gonna see my friend
Make it go away
I'm sick of everything,.. gonna see my friend
Make it go away

Buona Sera, won't be long before we
All walk off the wire
I'm gonna see my friend,.. I'm gonna see my friend
for what I require

Buona sera, cut my quick
Don't' want my flame to get no higher.

I'm gonna see my friend,.. I'm gonna see my friend,.. Make it go away
I'm sick of everything,.. I'm gonna see my friend,.. Make it go away
I'm gonna see my friend,.. I'm gonna see my friend,.. Make it go away

Wanna leave it all
Wanna give it up
Wanna see it, gone once & for all

Wanna feel withdrawal
Want an overhaul
Wanna be there, hard as a statue
Black as a tattoo, never to wash away

Gonna take me an astral plane
I'm gonna tunnel through denial
I'm gonna shake this thing
I wanna shake this pain 'for I retire

I'm gonna see my friend,.. I'm gonna see my friend,.. Make it go away
I'm sick of everything,.. I'm gonna see my friend,.. Make it go away
I'm gonna see my friend,.. I'm gonna see my friend,.. Make it go away

Every night with the lights out, where you gone?
What's wrong?
Everytime you can try but can't turn on
Your rock song

3. THE FIXER

Yeah, hey, hey

When somethings cold, let me put a little fire on it
If somethings old, I wanna put a bit of shine on it
When somethings gone, I wanna fight to get it back again

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, fight to get it back again
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

What's saved could be one last lifetime

4. JOHNNY GUITAR

Johnny Guitar Watson staring at me
Riding on 3 wheels, a woman on his knee
With a leg under a red dress I wish I could see
Further North a warmth alive & lingering

Now Johnny he be having lots of women
The reason he be smiling known to him

On the left the girl in red so innocent
Never sheds her clothes even when she goes to bed
The type of girl responsible foriginal sin
Can't help but wonder where & who she is

And the memory is always getting clearer
For that's 30 years or more I've loved her so
And how I need to know,.. Why she's with him

And I sleep w/the light on,.. In case she comes
And I sleep w/the light on,.. In case she

Recently as I was waiting on a dream
She came to visit lost & lonely me
She leaned over the bed & with her lips above my head
She asked if I had seen her Johnny

Oh and I hide my disappointment
Cause for years I had been hoping
Oh yeh how I had been hoping
That when she came, she would come for me

I hide my disappointment
Cause for years I had been hoping
That when she came,
She'd be coming just for me


5. JUST BREATHE

Yes, I understand that every life must end, aw-huh,..
As we sit alone, I know someday we must go, aw-huh,..
Oh I'm a lucky man, to count on both hands
the ones I love,..

Some folks just have one,
Yeah, others, they've got none, huh-uh

Stay with me,..
Let's just breathe.

Practiced are my sins,
Never gonna let me win, aw-huh,..
Under everything, just another human being, aw-huh,..
Yeh, I don't wanna hurt, there's so much in this world
to make me believe.

Stay with me,..
You're all I see.

Did I say that I need you?
Did I say that I want you?
Oh, if I didn't I'm a fool you see,..
No one knows this more than me.
As I come clean.

I wonder everyday
As I look upon your face, aw-huh,..
Everything you gave
And nothing you would take, aw huh,..
Nothing you would take
Everything you gave...

Did I say that I need you?
Oh, did I say that I want you?
Oh, if I didn't I'm a fool you see,..
No one knows this more than me.
As I come clean, ah-ah...

Nothing you would take,..
Everything you gave.
Love you till I die,..
Meet you on the other side.


6. AMONGST THE WAVES

What used to be a house of cards
Has turned into a reservoir
Saved the tears that were waterfalling
Let's go swim tonight, darling

Once outside the undertow
Just you & me & nothing more
If not for love I would be drowning
I've seen it work both ways, but I am up

Riding high amongst the waves
I can feel Like I
Have a soul that has been saved
I can feel like I
Put away my early grave

Gotta say it now
Better loud
Than too late

Remember back the early days
When you were young & thus amazed
Suddenly the channel changed
The first time you saw blood

Cut to later, now you're strong
You've bled yourself, the wounds are gone
It's rare then where is nothing wrong
Survived & you're amongst the fittest
Love ain't love until you give it up

Riding hi amongst the waves
I can feel like I
Have a soul that has been saved
I can see the light
Coming through the clouds in rays

Gotta say it now
Better loud
Than too late


7. UNTHOUGHT KNOWN

All the thoughts,... You never see,... You're always thinking,...
Brain is wired,... Brain is deep,... Oh are you sinking?,...

Feel the path of every day,... Which road you taking?,...
Breathing hard,... & Making hay,... Yeh this is living,...

Look for love & evidence,... That you're worth keeping,...
Swallowed whole in negatives,... It's so sad & sickening,...

Feel the air up above,... A pool of blue sky,...
Fill the air up with love,... Black w/starlight,...

Feel the sky blanket you,... w/gems & rhinestones,...
See the path cut by the moon,... For you to walk on,...
For you to walk on,...

Nothing left,... Nothing left,...
Nothing there,... Nothing left,...

See the path cut by the moon,... For you to walk on,...
See the waves on distant shores,... Awaiting your arrival,...

Dream the dreams of other men,... You'll be no ones rival,...
Dream the dreams of others then,... You will be no ones rival,...
You will be no ones rival,...

A distant time,... A distant space,... That's where we're living —..
A distant time,... A distant place,... So what you giving?,...
What you giving?


8. SUPERSONIC

Yeah I been dreaming of getting along
Now I'm awake, dreaming keep it on keeping on
I catch a break, then a punch to the head
I smile big with a toothless grin.

Supersonic gone & took my soul
I caught the rhythm but the clock was slow yeh
Supersonic, truth be told
I don't need you to live, but I'll never let you go

Yeah I been thinking, I already know
Nothing bout nothing, or so I have been told
I'm not the paper, I'm more like the fold
Cut the crease & put the shit in the whole

Supersonic, gone & took my soul
I caught the rhythm but the clock was slow yeh
Supersonic, truth be told
I don't need you to live, but I'll never let you go

Supersonic, gotta feel it now
I need to hear it, need to feel it loud yeh
Supersonic, truth be told
I wanna live my life with the volume full


9. SPEED OF SOUND

Yesterdays, how quick they change
All lost and long gone now

It's hard to remember any thing
Moving at the speed of sound
Moving with the speed of sound

And yet I'm still holding tight
To this dream of distant light
And that somehow I'll survive

But this night has been a long one
Waiting on a sun,.. that just don't come

Can I forgive what I
Cannot forget
And live a lie
I could give it one more try

Why deny this drive inside?
Just looking for some peace

Everytime I get me some
It gets the best of me
Not much left you see

And yet I'm still holding tight
To this dream of distant light
And that somehow I'll survive

But this night has been a long one
Wiating on a word,.. that never comes

A whisper in the dark
Is that you or just my thoughts?
Wide awake & reaching out

It's gone so quiet now
Could it be I'm farther out?
Moving faster than the speed of sound


10. FORCE OF NATURE

Understand she's a force of nature
Contraband hiding deep inside her soul
Exorcising her will to lose control
She lets go

A common man, he don't stand a chance, no
Wonderland pulling Alice in the hole
No way to save someone who won't take the rope
And just let's go

One man stands the edge of the ocean
A beacon on dry land
Eyes upon the horizon
In the dark before the dawn

Hurricane has the trade winds blowing
A gale force shaking windows in the storm
Shipwreck on the rock that he calls home
With one light on

Somewhere there's a siren singing
A song only he hears
All the strength that you might think
Would disappear,.. Resolving

One man stands alone, Awaiting
For her to come home
Eyes upon the horizon
In dark before the darkness meets the dawn.

Makes me ache,... Makes me shake,...
Is it so wrong to think that love can keep us safe?

Last I saw, he was out there waiting
A silhouette in the black light, full moon glow
In the sand there he stands upon the shore
Forevermore

Somewhere there's a siren singing
A song only he hears
All the strength that you might think
Would disappear, resolving

One man stands along, Awaiting
For her to come home
Eyes are closed,.. You cannot know
But his heart don't seem to roam.


11. THE END

What were all those dreams we shared
Those many years ago?
What were all those plans we made
Now left beside the road?
Behind us in the road

More than friends I always pledged
Cause friends they come and go
People change as does everything
I wanted to grow old
Just want to grow old

Slide on next to me
I'm just a human being
I will take the blame
Bust just the same
This is not me
You see
Believe
I'm better than this

Don't leave me so cold
Or buried beneath the stones
I just want to hold on
And know I'm worth your love
Enough
I don't think
There's such a thing

It's my fault, Now I been caught
A sickness in my bones
How it pains to leave you here
With the kids on your own
Just don't let me go

Help me see myself
Cause I can no longer tell
Looking out from the inside of
The bottom of a well
I yell
It's hell
But no one hears

Before I disappear
Whisper in my ear
Give me something to echo
In my unknown futures ear

My dear
The End
Comes near
I'm here
But not much longer
