There's a place I know, a place to go.
A place that I know that I can go.
See it in my dreams, a place to be,
Where I can live peacefully.
Show me the road, how far to go.
Open my eyes that I might know.
Somewhere I'll be free, someone show me.
God, please show me ...
What kind of man is this ...
What kind of words are these ...
Some things never change.
What kind of candle burns in the rain?
So cold and wet, I'm beginning to rust.
Too much trust, trampled in the dust.
Walked hand in hand with the devil,
I'm now dragging this cross in search of an angel.
Body bruised and soul in knots,
I've climbed the highest mountain tops.
Through the storm, I've searched for shore.
On a bed of nails I wait ... it's fate.
My labour days have come and gone.
The fire in my chest is all done.
The scorched earth has blackened the sky,
And still my heart beats, it beats ...
Mandy's not dead, she learned to wear her scars -
Crawled out from the grave to touch the hand of God.
Learning to love, to cut away the hate.
She had something that he just couldn't take ...
Her will to live.
Momma said, "Give him a try,
I'm sure he'll make an excellent father -
Daughter you know, I'm not getting any younger."
Mandy's new Daddy wanted her to love him,
Her to touch him, he liked to hear her cry.
Strapped upon a bed, much too tired to cry.
Doctor says baby's gone, and girl, you're too young to die.
Momma says she's full of lies and far too sleazy.
Brother says, "Try harder girl 'cause suicide's easy."
Now tell me world, tell me why should I fit in?
Why should I belong - to a world so wrong?
Now tell me why, tell me what makes you so right
Why should I conform, I can't fake it any more.
Hey world, tell me what does it mean
If I don't fit into yours?
Throbbing in my head, burning in my eyes,
I've got a pack of hungry wolves just waiting for me to die.
Spinning, no control, the rock's finally stolen my soul.
This fight with life takes all my might, tonight I just might blow.
My false reality is fading like a dream.
This obsession with depression is forcing me to scream.
A million lying voices, taunting me with choices,
The preachers, teachers, liars and leaches drowning me in noise.
Just give it up, you say you're here for me.
Where were you, did you ever feed me?
Let it go, don't cling to could be's.
I can't wait any more for you.
You're wasting time. Well, I've run out of time.
Take your hurt and pain and get on out of here.
Can't you see it's just too late for me.
Please leave me some dignity.
Don't push me, don't you try to help me.
Don't try to heal my wounds, this is my disgrace.
Should I beg, should I beg for help?
If you're the one with answers, how did I end up here?
Reach out, you want to save me.
Then pull me from this chair before this world fries me.
SCREAM OUT FOR MERCY.
Scream out for something, I scream for nothing.
This world's become a crock.
Father, father, I'm scared, alone and in pain ... I'm so ashamed.
Please hold me, hold me. I can't bear the end ... please take me home.
When my emptiness stretches beyond imagination,
Your love rushes in like a mighty ocean.
Carries me away on your sea of salvation.
Carry me away on your waves of love.
My rose among the thorns, I give myself to you.
My rose among the thorns, I give myself to you.
I give you my heart, your love made it clean.
A timeless theme, On the wings of my dreams.
I search for your voice to light up my day.
When the sun shines in the sky, I see your face in its rays.
What a beautiful sound, got a beautiful beat.
Made of joy and strife, symphony of life.
What a beautiful noise. It's a sound that I love.
Don't you see, I offer liberty,
Fortune , fame and vanity.
I've bottled God's country and so much more.
Together we can punch a hole in the sky,
With one slice of my dreamer's pie.
Sing for joy, son, don't be shy.
Did a little jig and slapped his thigh.
A toothless grin and winked his eye.
You could say I'm the lucky kind.
Fortune's been a friend of mine.
Quickly, boy, time's slipping away.
I'm offering you just one more time.
You show a lot of promise for such a tender youth.
I'm getting impatient and sort of confused.
I've got drugs and the finest booze.
Mountains move with a twinkle of his eye.
But take a slice of his dreamer's pie.
Hey, don't believe the lie.
Remember you hate dreamer's pie.
Don't you see I offer liberty,
God's country and so much more.
Fortune , fame, who needs love with vanity?
Have a slice of my dreamer's pie.
Flying towards the fire, at the taunting of the flame.
It'll be the wreck of you, death of you,
You're sure to burn. You play a dangerous game.
Mr. Zero, heed the warning, your candle's burning low.
Your blood's on my hands, but I can wash them, you know.
Sleeping at the wheel, dreaming of a better deal.
Living life a murder, running from bullet to bullet.
Your head's in a noose, laughs at those who try to cut you loose.
Mr. Zero takes a slice whenever it feels nice.
Cry if you want to cry, sleeping baby lie.
Hate if you want to hate, see if it keeps you safe.
Pray, baby, pray. See it'll make you brave.
Run, baby, run. I'll put flowers on your grave.
Hey Man up in Heaven
Shine down some of that love upon me.
Hey Man up in Heaven
Smile down on me.
Don't get freaked out by the way that I am.
Plagued with doubts, I do the best that I can.
Don't think me jaded or overly cynical,
I've just become so damned analytical.
Hear me when I tell you that I can't fly.
I know that I'm just an average guy.
Looking and wanting and needing like you,
I turn to the One above,
Tell me you don't too.
