I want it back so I wandered back
did you ever think I would
and since I've been away I can hardly complain
I never would have guessed
I became just the same and forcast the blame
on the common things I cant forget
yea we fell on unfortunate times
Oh that's what you said when
all the things you said were true and
I was too
Same can be said for the road up ahead
may not change I know
when they follow

We've been breathing the same air
but no one seams to know
that there's no direction sign
for where we belong
you got so many visions
that can only comes in waves
so tall they make you fall
right back into place
now I don't want to hear you say
how you had it in your hands
cause only love that makes you blind
is where you should stand today
you got it all so don't you want to stay
It aint enough to take it on when there's
nothing left to waste
we've been rollin, rollin
and our heads all out of place
but we got sunlight, day bright
and we're going back for more
to somewhere I think it's fair
that we've been there before
now we don't have to go
we got it all so don't you want to stay
I know it can't be wrong
if we're following the sound
I know you'd hate to go
so just turn yourself around

How many times have you hidden from the view
that you thought you couldn't bear to be beholden to
now anyone can see the way you looked at me
like you did when you thought I was stronger
but my hands can no longer be that careless anymore
I cant help myself today
I'm sinking as the evenings gone away
I cant find another way
I'd never thought I'd leave until today
how many times before were you constantly a bore in the ways
you can say that you'll come back home
even though you wont say that you can cause you can't make demands any longer the fairgrounds are overgrown
and we have all moved on
I cant help myself today
I'm sinking as the evenings gone away
I cant find another way
I'm thinking as I'm leaving I'll be back for more
so let me reap and sow other things you know
if you go I can be very somber
If, if I cant go on I think of all things that I thought
when the days came longer and time moved a bit to slow

The sun can let you see that you're never alone
and forget the ordinary buried down to the bone
so you drowned out what you already know
and found your own way down
sentimental weakness in the third degree
you gently sit yourself down beside the street
to look for the people that you used to need
till the sun came out
Don't let all that sun get in your eyes
You might just start to see that it's no surprise
wake a little shake a little turn a little more
but your tangled in the sheets and keep lookin at the door
and found out what you wanted before
has come to wear you down
ready to give up on all the things that you need
while you picking through the pockets of the pennyless thieves
to make a little take a little save a little piece
of the one you found
Don't let all that sun get in your eyes
You might just start to see that it's no surprise
so so sad you can bet its the air that isn't right
don't forget to protect what you get or you might just find
you'll go back on the promise of a fortune shared
it can be what you wanted if you want it bad
so go back, don't go back, so go back
to where you began.
oh lord
I'm all
tied up in names
give me some
little bit
more of the same
cause I know what you want
there's no way to go
back to where you are now
so hold my hand and let
go of all your plans
there's no end to be found

Whatever you want you get it
feeling the love you spread it
oh so well and I can tell
seams so impossible
but you make it logical
to turn around without slowing down
outer space out of reasons
you say the words that I have dreamed about
so into the deep end go
and don't be scared
if it pulls you down
it evens out
you give up yours
and I will open the doors
so we can scream out loud
scream out loud
It brings a tear to my eye
your senses have come around
and all that remains is
what your feeling now

Look how the smoke trails off your beaten fingernails
and slowly winds to the lamps light
downstairs none seams to really care
they're only eyes passing by and there they go
It wont be long I know you know
It may be out of line
to say what's on your mind
and wander through the door
for the first time
It's no fair everything your keep in there
is tied so tight wont you try
just letting go
It wont be long I hope you know
It may be out of line
to say what's on your mind
and wander through the door
but its worth a try
Don't you know it's a show
and the part that you have chose
set's the stage your on
I know what you think is really wrong
is only time passing by
and there it goes
but it wont be long
I hope you know
It may be out of line
to say what's on your mind
and wander through the door
and expose us all once more

sandy waves with broken beams
sunday morning it hardly seems
you come back, then four times four
always more, say it, always more
gone so fast and no goodbye
shattered clouds in reddish tides
twisting hopes do rise then fall
of knowing you in life and all
tear the seam and see what's seen
eyes that live and shine with green
messages crisp from nighttime shine
melodies stop in never time
come down once more and say it true
this time is ours, so sing it blue
crumbling eyes from behind our minds
smiling thoughts that never bind (we'll always find)
tear the seam and see what's seen
eyes that live and shine with green
I wish there was more time, I say it all the time
humming thoughts that ring thru time
he sings it now, this rhyme is mine
these signs yell yes, so follow it too
a place again where he becomes you
a place again where he knew you

If it's oh so easy why'd you go and lead me in
to the things that we're not gonna mention
and your own intention's got your feet locked as they go
to the bottom without any problem
well there is something that I know will make you feel all right here
its the longest season and you're rollin back your eyes
to the ceiling it's all too appealing
that the clothes your wearing aren't daring anymore
yet you continue to not make an issue
well there's something that I know should make us feel all right here
when there's no were left to go it's making it all too clear
so hold on tight
it's a long ride into the moonlight we don't have a moment to waste
when the home you believed in has fallen to pieces there's no better time to escape than today
Did your long lost demons get you going back for more
there's no denying without any trying
and the laws you're breaking they're just complications of
technicality caught in reality
Well something else I know can make you feel all right dear
Cause there's no were left to go and it's making it all too clear
so hold on tight
it's a long ride into the moonlight we don't have a moment to waste
when the home you believed in has fallen to pieces there's no better time to escape than today
when the pink elephants on parade
step right up and make it safe for you to say you're not ok
today you're not ok

All the friends that I've had
right or wrong good and bad
keep me whole in every way
and in the end I'll be glad
that I've had the days of
sadness on my back
cause all the happiness inside
isn't truly gonna find
any replacements here
it's the morning I love best
when I can't afford to rest
any more than I'll allow
from the moment I get high
I don't want to be reminded at all
that I no longer have the time
to be free from all thats
rising around me here
if such a symptom should appear
then I'm heading home to feel
my precious gold
the one who helps me understand
and can truly be a man
who's finally whole again

there's only one to go
and you can have it if you try
no one can tell you no
when all you know has given you the right
laughing on the way
you found a better medication for your head
it's so unusual
to not get up when you are down
it's only logical
that every corner's got you in retreat now
help is on the way
and all that's rattling your cage is put to rest
it's not a lesson learned
unless you care to get it wrong
everything you've had before
is everything that you have ever needed
where're you gonna stand
when all you have and all you've had before
turns into a past that you can't have
