A Crying Shame
Let's talk about,
something else,
it doesn't feel good,
you moved on so well...
just like I knew you would.
I know they say,
"I've seen him play,
since he was a kid.
I always thought he would...
but he never did."
sunrise
sunset
inspiration
...oh, it's coming over me.
could I be a better man?
...could that be over me?
Say my name,
it's "a crying shame"
...a dream that never came.
I always want to be,
but never can arrange.
never can arrange.
---------
Pluto
there's a ghost on my way home.
i see him every night.
singing in his car,
i see him every night.
there's a scene set on the stage.
to us, we're all "the lead"
never who we are:
jealous thespians.
we never get the part.
we never get that part.
there's a song that i once wrote.
gilded with my soul.
the world, it stayed the same
i found what i was worth.
i've never felt the same.
there's a constant satellite
who always stayed the course
he's nothing anymore
nothing anymore
nothing anymore
(fact and fiction...)
there's a future that i've seen,
in books and the t.v.
i don't want to be me...
[and that's me, out-
on the roadside,
trying to scream my past away.]
[and that's me, be-
hind the curtain,
wanting him to break a leg.]
[and that's me, for-
ever traveling,
back to where i thought was home.]
[and it's me, that
ex-planet,
solar giant, all alone]
--------
Negatives
I want to smile-
pick up my guitar
and make you smile,
I want to laugh-
get that weight off my back
and really laugh,
I want to mean it,
I really want to...
I want to see-
get on my feet
and really see the world,
I want to listen-
keep my big mouth shut
and really listen,
I want to hear it,
I want to understand...
But I'm too tired for a wakening.
When you spend your dreams awake-
the lines get blurry and you stop seeing straight.
I want to be-
on the other side of things
the t.v. screens,
reality.
I want to smile-
If I play my guitar
will you smile?
will you smile?
can we be the same?
I don't need to move
just to prove
to you that I am going somewhere.
----------
Everyday/Everynight
Flash.
Memory.
We are having fun.
Soft.
Camera glow.
We are children.
None.
Of my own.
I am twenty one.
God.
Only knows.
What you've become.
If you.
Were the Sun.
Then I'd chase the day.
If you.
Were the Moon.
Then I'd chase the night.
Sun.
Take the moon.
And run away.
Everyday.
And Everynight.
I will chase.
I will run.
-----------
Too Young
Oh my God,
is this it?
i think i finally understand,
there's no time,
this is it,
there's no time,
there's no plan,
save a prayer,
and a song,
as i walk down the line,
catalog,
of memories,
must i leave them behind?
I never told,
never said,
how i wish that i did,
we're too young,
gotta move,
it's my wish that you would,
don't you dare,
follow me,
i agree, it's too soon...
And it's a shame,
for us to wait,
so many years,
to open our eyes,
and it's a mistake,
to wake, sleep, then pass,
our fullest days,
should not be our past,
the fastest day,
of my life,
has been today,
has been my last,
has been my last.
"and if i must go,
while i am young,
all that i wish-
to leave is my love."
-----------
New Skin
i never thought I'd be this old-
i thought i'd die-
but i feel younger than before.
the calendar's shedding and i'm changing skin.
i'm not who i was back when you knew me,
back when i was in that band.
my name is static,
but that's the only thing that is.
we were so close...
and you know that i miss everyone,
but i'm missing you the most.
i never thought i'd live this way-
kill'n myself to keep a GPA.
the more i go to class
the more i feel absent.
life is wasted on the living...
sometimes i feel like there's no meaning.
i wanna quit with all the dreaming
and change my fate...
i should have been earlier out of the gate...
i should have saved more photographs.
i should have savored all that laughter...
i wanna go to Montana.
i wanna start bad movie club again.
i wanna be with my old friends-
my medicine for these changing times.
[ well, i'm not who i was-
but, i wanna get to know you.
i wanna let you in-
before we change again ]
--------
Maybe You're An Angel
you say you took the long way-
out of here.
you say you took that pain pill-
out of fear.
Well, listen to me baby
I want to make things right
but I can't have you dying on me
every night.
I know I have my demons-
my long goodbyes...
but then . . . my dreams are peaceful
when you're by my side.
Oh, I could be your lover
or I could be your friend
I think we could help each other-
without falling in...
Maybe you're an angel-
sent from God.
Maybe I will save you-
maybe not.
We could go our seperate ways
or we could stay and see.
I'm just saying- if you're going to take the long way-
will you take it with me?
--------
Yuma
con ogni morte c'e
una nuova vita...
The lens is broken now
I can see for myself.
the air has never been so clear-
I don't know where I am
I don't know where I'm gonna go
and I don't care
I don't care . . .
I drove to Yuma yesterday-
just so I could see the sun . . .
closed my eyes and took it in.
I thought I heard you laughing-
and I took it as some kind of sign...
a second chance?
a second chance?
non sono tutto
I can find my place- I can
fa parte di esso
I know
I know
non siamo tutto, c'e
un posto per noi
no, you're not alone...
know that I'll be here for you-
when/if you want to get clean.
when I see you hurt-
just know it hurts me the same...
oh my god
oh my god
non sono tutto
I can find my place- I can
fa parte di esso
I know
I know
há uma maneira para fora
maneira para fora . . .
há uma maneira para fora
maneira para fora . . .
non sono tutto
I can find my place- I can
fa parte di esso
I know
I know
I know
I know
I know

I Love You. Goodbye.
We are children-
this way.
we can think up-
anything.
I guess that's why-
I thought you'd stay
I can think up-
anything.
We are further-
than ever.
There's a stranger-
in the mirror.
Do you ever-
wish for more?
Do you ever-
wonder?
She said, "It's over. goodbye...
sometimes it's over. goodbye...
sometimes it's hard "J"
that's life.
I was never meant to be-
your wife.
And, I still love you-
goodbye.
Sometimes it's over...
