Rainy Day Women #12 & 53
I was already gone
when the lights came off and on
And I wanted to wait for you to see
if I was really wrong for you
and if that cloud would stay with you

Wine & Dine
Here’s a line, soon to speak
Driven into sound like coffin nails
Dream awake, the soundest sleep
Moments dressed like years, there is no change
and no one weak enough to take the blame
And she’s coming down the road
You didn’t even know there was a road
And she’s cluttering up the fields
messing up the True with the Real
Alive and well, rise & shine
Another chore you don’t anticipate
Born & bred, wine & dine
Your limbs are only anchors for a ghost
that otherwise would float to different coasts
But she’s dying from the cold
and you didn’t even know if you’re too cold
So she’s cluttering up the fields
messing up the Fuck with the Shit
So, if you really are blessed now, baby,
it’s alright to kneel there
So, if you’re deader than most now, honey,
it’s alright to be scared
Yeah, if you’re really that blessed now, baby,
it’s alright to kneel here
Here’s a line, a crazy idea
that drifted in your head and won’t get gone:
‘What matter would it make if all were none?’
And she’s trying not to feel
and you don’t even know if you can feel
So she’s cluttering up the fields
messing up the True with the Real

Man Of Your Dreams
Murmur in a little room
I walk through with my cup of juice and
I can’t remember how you tasted
You act like love has come too soon
Wrapped in blue and white,
when you’re asleep at night,
I cannot tell you what I’m thinking
as I lie next to you
I wish I was the guy you meet when you’re dreaming
instead of just the guy you’re with
Now I’m in an empty house,
my love has gone away
And you know it’s lonely here
but I’m not too proud to stay,
as long as you want me to stay
I wish I was the guy you meet when you’re dreaming
instead of just the guy you’re with
That way you could have what you want and
I wouldn’t have to pretend I’m something that I’m not
Murmur in a little room
I follow moans and sighs
to where your body lies
You’re dreaming of his love
and I’m happy because
you’ve finally found him
Yes, you’ve found him –
The Man Of Your Dreams
Now I’m in an empty house,
my love has gone away
And you know it’s lonely here
but I’m not too proud to stay
as long as you want me to stay
As long as you want me to stay

The Full Extent Of The Law
You’re lucky
You’re trying to be lucky
alone
No worry
You’re trying to worry me alone
Nobody’s equal, the best is trying to reason
like a courtesan spy
And where the dust lands is always forced to be strong
even though it’s blue
All people are created equal -
they’re not even trying
Nobody’s equal, the best is trying to belong
I know you
Born on the brightest day of truth
or on the darkest night
And the love that you know to be the curtain
Behind: light

Song Of A Sailor
The lasses are pretty
The roses just fine
I always have plenty of wine
But nothing can turn my mind away
from long lost friends
No one misses the comfort of home like I do
Not for the living
It’s not for the dead
I’ll sail away today
A hundred to one
A lonely sun
I’ll set into the sea
No one misses the comfort of home like I do

In The Marketplace
I was in the marketplace
Felt the marketplace a showdown
And I thought you were the judge
So I told myself to slow down
Ah, but now I’m not too sure
You talk to my grave like I’m in prison
The only words I have for you,
spoken through my mouths’ incision:
“Slow down”
There’s no secret source
There’s no open sores
Lonely is just a sport
I was in the marketplace
And I told the marketplace the lowdown
that you can never be too sure
if this is love or just a showdown
There’s no secret source
There’s no open sores
Lonely is not so sure

Golden Bruise
If I’m crushed, you sentence me
If I’m not, you set me free
If I’m dead, you bury me
offer a smile, apology
There’s no good in the peace of mind you give
If you’re fighting entropy,
after a while,
you’ll know it’s free
There’s no good in the peace of mind you give
There’s no good in the life you save by dying in
the war that they brought to you
Let you down, like diamonds
And you wanna find a town with no one around
I’m not sure it can be found

My Mean Freedom
Everyone is made of steel,
everyone but me
They walk the path with such zeal,
I cannot keep up
But I know it’s real to feel
I know it’s real to feel
And I know it’s very hard
Everyone knows how to fuck,
that’s plain enough to see
But I’m so nervous ‘round you,
I can’t even find what it is I’m supposed to feel
Though I know it’s real to feel
I know it’s real to feel
But I know it’s very hard
When you’re so downtown,
think of me, baby, out here on the ocean
just waiting for your storm to come
and blow my men freedom away
And it’s a long, long wait
And it’s a long, long wait
And it’s a long, long wait

The Future
Baby, keep the future dim
We have no way of knowing when
love might leave us
and wouldn’t understand the reasons
We wouldn’t understand the reasons
You can’t control what I might do,
how many ways I might hurt you
but now, baby, we shouldn’t think about the future
We shouldn’t worry about the future
We shouldn’t worry about it, no, it’s alright
We shouldn’t worry about the future
You cannot know the future
I told you that you cannot know the future
I told you that

Don’t Love Me Too Long (Love Me ‘Til I Die)
I was only another person
You know it’s true
Based on nothing, it grew and grew
So don’t let me down
Don’t make me live on past my years
It’s not the weight that keeps you around
I was only a new position
in space and time
A walking corpse in a long, long line
So don’t make your heart into a coffin
by keeping my spirit there with you
Don’t love me too long, love me ‘til I die
Don’t love me too long, find some other guy

Beautiful Day
Hey, it’s a beautiful day
Better to be alive than to be any other way
Be alive today
Hey, the sun in the sky
looks so fucking pretty, it makes me want to cry
and G-d only knows why
Don’t send those flowers to me
They wilt and then they bend
So leave them by the road
All flowers could ever be
when compared to you
is like a candle to the sun
You melt everyone
I’m already gone by Sunday
Golden bruise, that’s one too

Ghosts
Some will die for silver
and some will die for gold
What more can they offer you?
What more can they do?
Some will leave in sunshine
and some will leave in rain
What more can I offer you?
What more can I say?
Some believe the wagon
is better than the road
Though you have nothing to follow
you don’t have to be alone
Some believe in shadows
Some believe in ghosts
One more to surrender to
One more to surrender to
What more can they offer you?

Inbetween (An Angel Walks Into The Colosseum)
I see your face and it’s a trap now
It’s always better now, better now than then
I see your face and it’s a trap now
It’s always better then, better then than now
But we’ll go on
living inbetween the bookshelves:
birth and death, place and time to go
before we spend another dollar on our mental health
Waste of time
I see that life is just a trap now
and we are caught inside
Debased by time, murmuring
Murmuring
But we’ll go on
living inbetween the bookshelves:
birth and death, place and time to go
before we get too used to the idea of being here
Suddenly, an angel walks into the colosseum
Birth and death, waste of time

The Fall Of Atom
I loved your face that night
I loved how it looked so masculine
and gaudy and bright
The night I first asked you to go down on me
The night I then asked you to leave so you’d know
you always end up so all alone
My life was flapping around like a fish
That was your idea: to swim in other men’s hearts
And when you poured me into this coffin
I beat my fist, gasped for air but the air wasn’t there
My Father Who Aren’t In Heaven appeared
wearing His hair too short and no beard
Something was wrong
so I didn’t stay there for long
And His arms were outstretched to receive me
but I would like to be on my own
And His face was a thousand new colors
but I would like to be all my own
even though
there’s no sure way to know
where to go
And His mouth slid the length of my body
and came to rest at the source of His divinity
And I was in Him as He is in me
I was in Him as He’s inside me
Yes, I was in Him as He is in me

Bein’ Cool (Is Not Like Money)
Bein’ cool is not like money
It’s not the kind of thing you try to hide
When you’re cool, you’re always in overdrive
No need to slow down
There’s no need to go to heaven
Cuz everything that you could want is here
When you’re cool, your time is for everyone
except for you

Pity Well
You want to meet her when she comes, another girl
who looks like you but doesn’t make me think of you
In fact, she makes me forget
You want to see her kiss my face, then turn away
as if you can’t believe she really took your place
You wanted me to know the way down
You wanted me to know the way
You wanted me to feel like this love isn’t real
So you set up a pity well for me to drink your spell
And luck isn’t free, you’ll pay the price
when luck becomes a young man you think you need
And you can’t leave it at home now
because you’re unlucky in love
Set up a pity well -
you know me pretty well
Summer rain
Morning came
Lie there
Morning came
Summer rain
Dry there
Morning rain
Summer pain
Lie there
Some are saying
Morning came
Hide there
Morning came
Some are saying
Hi there
You want to meet her when she comes, another girl
but love becomes like dirt, and it buries you

Devils Wait
I was only joking when I said that we were free
but time is just a reason and it’s reason enough for me
I created order out of something you called me
The eyes, the ears, the nose and mouth,
there’s nothing you can’t cheat
I was only joking when I said that in my sleep
I’m done with all the joking,
it’s time to live seriously
Though that was a lonely time for me
I think I can drain my eyes
Of all the hurt they’ve seen
Apologize and make a clean start among the pure
cuz devils wait at heaven’s door

Explain Change
Explain change -
the way you used to be,
the way you are
Bent like a star
The world is dumb,
that’s not to say simple or even fair
but everyone’s there
So why wait?
The girl that you want is on a plastic plate
I know, you already ate
A certain date is all you can ask for
but not too near,
so you still have time to get clear
I found a clue
inside the boutique that I fell into
while waiting for you
I bought some time
and spent it on anything I thought was strange
Now I’m left with the change
Because everything is change
The Names
You can crawl down the drain
You can crawl down but
everything is change
The Pain
You can crawl down the drain
You can crawl down the drain
So, explain change -
the way you look back at me from heaven’s door
saying “it’s all you hoped for”
The world is numb,
that’s not to say evil, it’s just unfair
Ah, but everyone’s there
Explain change –
the way you use to be,
the way you are
