I love this town but this town she don't love me. It's just a small town with a big cities facade. But I drank her wine and I drank her Whiskey. I love this town but this town she don't love me
There was a girl that I used to know who lived off of Hope Street. It was bitch to walk there in the winter with the snow coming down. But she had those eyes, they were so full of mystery. Now I wonder what had happened to the girl who lived off of Hope Street.
Well she said goodbye and she said I'm leaving you. Heaven knows you tried but you gave me nothing to believe in, so I'm gone.
Now ain't it funny don't you know that Friendship is a one way street, and it's where they put the family court, now ain't that irony. But late at night that's where all the kids go to drink. Ain't it funny don't you know that friendship is a one street.

Is This The End

Take a long look at this place, going to be the first time that you do. Take a hard look at this place, my old friend, going to be the last time that you do. Because this place that we call home has fallen right down into ashes and all these things that you insist on calling your own have brought us right down here to smash
What’s going down now my friend, could it true is this the end
Take a long look at this road going to be the first time that you have. Take a hard look at this road my old friend you don’t have to be so god damned sad.
What’s going down now my friend, could it true is this the end
Take a long look at these guns going to be the first time that you will take a hard look at these guns my old friend it’s not the last time that you will. These guns will soon...going to take some lives and all those cries going to be in vain. Well we know it ain’t right lord we know. But we’ll do it all again just the same
What’s going down now my friend, could it true is this the end

Not Like Me

Tell me would you like to see me wailing. Wailing on your door like I used to do come three AM when I’m plied with drinks and bleeding by your bathroom sink, the nights of self-abuse are nearly through.
Tell me would you like to see me failing. Failing myself as I failed you. Well I’ve gone and tripped and stumbled and I fell into my own man made hell. No matter of recourse can hide that truth
It’s not like me to give away my life for a broken dream or a love that was never true
No it’s not like me to lay down and close my eyes. Life might pass me by and I’ll die with you
So tell Me would you like to see me moving, moving on from you and leave this all in the past let it go and let it go fast. Everything that I have I give back to you.

An Ordinary Man

Fortunes fade and lovers fight as every dream we have is doomed to die, my my
The story never seems to change all the players just rearrange, my my
There is no heaven nor is there a hell
We play the roles of demons, we are all angels
Bombs are planted on the plane the newsman calls the world insane my my
Evil pirates still the patrol the seas even in the twenty first century my my
There is no heaven nor is there a hell
We play the roles of demons, we are all angels
What are we supposed to do, is it really up to me and you I thought that we were all friends
What are we supposed to say today ain’t like yesterday I thought that the world made amends
We’re like a boy who’s standing out in the pouring rain
Tossing pebbles at the window of a long extinguished flame
And he knows that he’s done all that he can
After all he’s just an ordinary man
What are we supposed to do, is it really up to me and you I thought that we were all friends
What are we supposed to say today ain’t like yesterday I thought that the world made amends

Where's It All Gone

Once I had a fortress filled with silver and gold built of earth and stone now it’s gone
Once I had a kingdom filled with flesh and bone built with sweat and soul
Now it’s gone, yeah gone
Won’t you tell me where where’s it all gone
Once I had a queen full of kindness and love, sent from heaven above me now she’s gone
I once had the whole world right in the palm of my hand well I still don’t quite understand where it’s gone
Won’t you tell me where where’s it all gone
Well I told about the land that I used to roam
I gave it back to the moon and the sun
Well I told you about the land that I used to own
I paid it off with my flesh and bone
Tell me where, where has it all, where’s it all gone
I went from ashes to ashes, dust to dust, rags to riches and riches to bust a lifetime of pain for one night of lust and a song
I went from ashes to ashes, dust to dust, rags to riches and riches to bust a lifetime of pain for one night of lust and a song
