What am I to do? Caught between a rock and someplace I don't want to be So save some sympathy for me up above it all it’s lonely here No way to win nowhere to go With all that my head spins cuz I was made for you but you were made for another yeah I was made for you but you were made for another How could this be true? So sure of myself now now I stand in disbelief Feelin’ like this world is just a thief It's all too clear I’ll never find a way out Never find a way to overcome the chains that bind me here cuz I was made for you but you were made for another yeah I was made for you but you were made for another yeah you were made for another yeah you were made for another well you were made for another

When you were a girl - And I was a boy And the tiniest thing - Brought the giantest joy That’s the way - I wish things still were Today I wanted the rain - To lessen the pain The look on your face - To make me insane I wanted the night - To be bursting with a billion Lights - I guess not Lying in my bed at night Lying on my back The ceiling seems so selfish now I don’t know What’s happening now - Was happening then It happened before - And it’ll happen again I’m waiting to see - If something new will happen To me - I guess not Lying in my bed at night, Lying on my back The ceiling seems so selfish now, I don’t know - I don’t know Lying through your teeth to me Well I can lie right back A smile don’t mean much to me Anymore - Anymore A smile don’t mean much to me Anymore A smile don’t mean much to me Anymore

I speak only truth Create only love Wish I hadn’t created the mote between us Between us. ‘f I speak only truth And create only love Then I hope you’ll forgive me for what I have done. Just look me in the eyes again Like you did when we were friends Before our tools were all laid out Before we thought to shout I’ll think only truth, Be only love I’ll think of the days when we were one I thought I’d won. (But) The baby’s with you; (And) She shines like the sun Can’t help thinking back to when we were young So fun. Just sit beside me once again Like you did when we were friends Before we split our worlds apart Divided up our art I’ll speak only truth, Be only love Wish I hadn’t created the mote between us Between us.

What would I do for love? To bring it back to what it was? What would I do for you? What should I think? What should I do? I feel a world of disconnection I need to right the ship At least we face the same direction I need to right the ship What do I see in this? I see all the things that I would miss What do I have to say To bring it back to yesterday?

You seem to care about Me and you /and all the things we do, but I don’t really care about you, baby I don’t really care about you, girl I don’t really care about you, baby It’s the same weight as worms You seem to think deeply About things and how they fit into your dream - But I don’t really care about you, baby I don’t really care about you, girl I don’t really care about you, baby It’s the same weight as worms Well I try to be gentle and kind It’s not about me It’s about the pride That she seems to hold within Her love of she and contempt of me Well, I don’t really care about you, baby I don’t really care about you, girl I don’t really care about you, baby It’s the same weight as worms

(Well) I’ve been doing my time (And) She’s been doing her part She says she don’t really like me Just likes the taste of my heart Now I’m not really sure ‘bout having women around They’re everywhere that I turn I gotta leave this town (Well) I’ve been looking inside Tryin’ to find what’s right She says it don’t really matter much The world will always be bright It’s clearly not about me And it’s not about you We all live in our dreams There’s not too much we can do (Well) I’ve been doing my time (And) She’s been doing her part She says she don’t really like me Just likes the taste of my heart She says she don’t really like me Just likes the taste of my heart

Clarify 02:01
They wanted to go and make peace. Show all the life that they’d seen. Draw some symbols, keep it so low that it bends. You oughta know what that means. Dinner and drinks for unhealthy friends. Shit for a shirt and a roof over head. Hug a thug and a dying friend until it ends. You oughta know - what that means. Come clarify the meaning of this. Tired of what ? What did I miss? Your side, my side. Inside, outside. Share my dreams. You oughta know what that means.

Can’t you sit on my lap like she sits on yours? Very still. Very still. Drip drip. My pores. I can’t believe I said what I said It’s so not me I know - you know Can’t you sit very still bare feet on the floor? Just pretend. Close your eyes. Show mercy. End the war. I can’t believe we bury our dead It’s so not me I know - you know

'92 01:38
One night in ‘92 Before I knew I’d spend my life with you Jumped the gun For a night of fun I’d soon regret the night we spent The one Why couldn’t I have waited? Why couldn’t I have waited? When you think of ‘92 Do you regret the night we spent? I do. If we would’ve just slowed down I’m sure it all would be the same by now Why couldn’t I have waited? Why couldn’t I have waited?

i hear you’re messing with the numbers i hear you’re swinging like a storm i hear they barely can contain you call me up if you get warm but if you’re gonna play that game (then) you really should expect the fight and if you’re gonna shout my name (then) you’d better just pronounce it right she’s goin’ to die alone in her bedroom she’s goin’ to smile until the end i see that everything’s in order just the way it always is they’ll beat me up, if i get closer i’ll keep my pocket full of chips but if we don’t remain the same (then) you really should refresh your art if seeing God remains your aim (then) you really ought to clean your heart she’s goin’ to die alone in her bedroom she’s goin’ to smile until the end

Outside, the sun is shining. Inside, it’s likely to rain I do my best, though my best is always changing. Inside, it’s likely to rain Keep your distance, keep the kid, keep your umbrella Keep it open, keep the peace, you never know Be the savior, be a beast, be Oklahoma Be a man, be a friend, you never know Outside, the sun is shining. Inside, it’s likely to rain

I went back to the rendezvous I’m sure you’ll say I’m just wasting time But I know There's something left to find I could see there were changes I could not even recognize But I know There's something left behind You stay behind and I'll follow you Find my way back in a dream I'll let the water return again Then I'll be complete Trees are standing there over me like a sadness to justify Now I know - There's nothing left to find How can it be still inside of me when all I wanted is lost in time Still I know - There's something left to find

I don’t wanna be your number one concern The fire that stirs about her when she stirs Have I warned you how despairing the moths are when they’re burned? Those daring. Kind. Eyes. Should be more learned So if you wanna let me go (you can just) If you wanna let me go (go on and) If you wanna let me go I’m sure There’s another Troy for her to burn

Both Free 03:10
I wanted to know that the girl that I love would be by my side til I die. So I looked to the sky and I asked of the Lord, "Please won’t you give me a sign?" Now I know the girl’s not for me. It’s clear I should set us both free. But I sat and I thought and I doubted the Lord, cuz I know he’s been wrong in the past. Perhaps it is He who is not meant for me; and the girl is the one meant to last. Now maybe the Lord’s not for me. Perhaps I should set us both free. As I sat alone with no girl and no Lord, I’d made the bed where I’d lie. Or as some might say, I have lived by the sword, and alone with my sword’s how I’ll die. The girl and the Lord aren’t for me. It’s time that I set them both free.
