1. _ Show Me
We got the same beat runnin' round
Through this crazy town
Oh i'm sick and i can't hear it anymore
And when we touched as the blood and the rain
We'd be shakin' the ground
She's sick and there's a way to bring her 'round
Show me what you're waitin' for
This moment may not rise again
And your heart will never know
Show me what you're waitin' for
The voices may not rise again
And the world will never know
The party drags us over the edge to a poison shore
I can't carry this desire anymore
Across the blue sky callin' me with the sweetest demand
She talks to me of mercy make me understand
Show me what you're waitin' for
This moment may not rise again
And your heart will never know
Show me what you're waitin' for
The voices may not rise again
And the world will never know
And through these years
As the tears chase the rain
The picture has cleared
Can we face the change
Show me what you're waitin' for
The voices may not rise again
And the world will never know
Show me what you're waitin' for
This moment may not rise again
And your heart will never know

2. _ Lift Me Up
I've got your picture in the palm of my hand
And i'm squeezin' it i'm teasin' it
I'd follow you to the edge of this land
But i'm losin' it, confusin' it
This is a man who has lost control
Lost the road to a higher soul
Stop me from fallin' you know i need you
To lift me up
Won't you lift me up yeah
Won't you take me to a place that i once knew
And when you can see
You've always been there for me
I'm waiting for your love
There'll be a time when all our rhythms of love
Are shakin' it we're makin' it
There'll be a place where life is livin' to give
This harmony it will come to me
And when i think of those who love you now
If i had my chances again somehow
Stop me from fallin' you know i need you
To lift me up
Won't you lift me up yeah
Won't you take me to a place that i once knew
And when you can see
Another side of me
I'm waiting for you
I'm not eating i'm not sleeping this tension this worry
You don't call you don't write me
I need your love in a hurry
Teach me, reach me, meet me, beat me,
Tease me, please me,
Come and seize me
This is a man who has lost control
Lost the road to a higher soul
Catch me from fallin' you know i need you
To lift me up
Won't you lift me up yeah
Won't you take me to a place that i once knew
And when you can see
You've always been there for me
I'm waiting for your love
And when you can see
The changes i've made in me
Well i'm waitin' for, you know i'm waitin' for your love

3. _ Fallin' Away
The manners of the heart
We watched them grow
Did we write everlasting love,
In the hollywood snow
The ribbons and the bows
Wrapped us with gold
Such pressure heaven knows
As the fairy tale folds
Who heals the broken ones
When love has gone
You're not the only ones
In an older time when the world was small
When good men were standing
Reaching out for mother love
When the ties of blood would cheer the faintest heart
Never thought i'd see
You fallin' away from me
Beneath the darker sky
The stars are such a mess
Can you forward my good-byes
To some new address
Who heals the broken ones
When love has gone
You're not the only ones
In an older time when the world was small
When good men were standing
Reaching out for mother love
When the ties of blood would cheer the faintest heart
Never thought i'd see
You fallin' away from me
You can't turn back time
We're stranded here
Leave the future behind
You're not the only ones
In an older time when the world was small
When good men were standing
Reaching out for mother love
When the ties of blood would cheer the faintest heart
Never thought i'd see
You fallin' away from me

4. _ Exodus
They're sending back pictures from saturn and mars
Maybe this will be our new home
Well we seem to have messed up
And we must look to the stars
Our paradise we seem to have outgrown
Join the line
Put down your name
Get ready for a ride on the exodus plane
Well we've been much too greedy
Wanting too much to fast
But we have to say we are what we are
Well the trees and the plants and the animals have gone
Long ago
Used to be real air to breath, they say so
Join the line
Put down your name
Get ready for a ride on the exodus plane
Join the line
Put down your name
Get ready for new life
Anyway it's too late for what might have been
Kiss the earth goodbye and get out of here
If there's anybody out there
Hope they haven't made the same mistakes
Turning gold into garbage and a banquet into dustcakes
Join the line
Put down your name
Get ready for a ride on the exodus plane
Join the line
Put down your name
Get ready for new life
Join the line
Put down your name
Get ready for a ride on the exodus plane
Get ready for new life

5. _ Two Souls
Whatever happened to the value of our love
I've seen you change
I've seen it coming slowly, these changes
You're not the same
It's not too late to start over
It's not too late to turn around
What are the things important to you?
Can't be the money
Well i got news for you
Two souls (should be two souls together)
Two souls (in the life that we planned)
But you're working obsession is squeezing me
Out of your world
I'd rather live in a doll's house in a small street
Where it always rains
You kid yourself you're working all for me
But older kids play with bigger trains
It's not too late to start over
It's not too late to turn 'round
It's like we live in separate worlds
Can't buy the lost time
I want my share of you
I want my share of you
Two souls (should be two souls together)
Two souls (in the life that we planned)
But you're working obsession is squeezing me
Out of your world
Can't buy the lost time
I want my share of you
I want my share of you
Two souls (should be two souls together)
Two souls (in the life that we planned)
Out of your world

6. _ City Song
It was that night at nowhere, i saw you standing there
Darlin' you were hungry for life, an innocent in this land
What is it about this city, that brings us all to life
Ten millions souls vibrating,
They're shimmering in the night
You mustn't think of staying,
The price is more than you'd think
It's giving up the sweetest part of you,
For this heartless prize
When does a vision of heaven become a living hell
Ten million souls vibrating, they're acting it out for real
Where do all the lonely people go,
When they want some lovin'
Where do all the lonely people hide, when they feel like cryin'
It was that night at nowhere, a cold glass in your hand
Darlin' you were angry with life, a prisoner in this land
What is it about this city, that brings us all to life
Ten millions souls vibrating,
They're shimmering in the night
Where do all the lonely people go,
When they want some lovin'
Where do all the lonely people hide, when they feel like cryin'
Where do all the lonely people go, in this crowded city
Where do all the lonely people hide, there's no sanctuary
Nowhere to run to, nowhere to hide
Nowhere to handshake, nowhere to smile
Won't you talk with me
Spend some time and give me life
When does a vision of heaven become a living hell
Ten million souls vibrating
They're shimmering in the night
Where do all the lonely people go, in this crowded city
Where do all the lonely people hide, there's no sanctuary
A vision of heaven
A vision of heaven

7. _ Tears To Tell
The time has come to watch you go watch you go
We weathered rough storms together
Couldn't conceive of the end
When i heard of your leavin'
It came as a shock and surprise
Like the deepest kinds of love
Lost on the inside
Locked right on the inside
What is the greatest expression of love,
To let go and wish well
But all these finer feelings have left me with tears to tell
I couldn't be the one to hold you stop you go
It is like stripping the soul
Letting all the finest pieces go
You know these feelings between us
Could not be expressed
You will never know my old secrets
They are so deeply felt they are so deeply felt
What is the greatest expression of love
To let go and wish well
But all these finer feelings have left me
What is the greatest expression of love,
To let go and wish well
But all these finer feelings have left me with tears to tell
Leaving me with my anecdoted and private jokes
The memory of a friend
You don't seem to know my old secrets
They are so deeply felt they are so deeply felt
What is the greatest expression of love
To let go and wish well
But all these finer feelings have left me
What is the greatest expression of love
To let go and wish well
But all these finer feelings have left me with tears to tell
But all these finer feelings have left me with tears to tell

8. _ One Last Try
Give me one last try
Hold on for me
Believe my alibi
Keep strong
Don't set me free
Well this weakness makes me wrong
I'll show you i can be strong
And this time it is for real
I know the hurt i've made you feel
But i won't let you down
No one else would have me 'round
You gave your love so honestly
Is heaven's grace too good for me
I know i've pushed my luck
So many times
I'm slippin' slowly now
Loosin' track, of my mind
Well this shadow i've become
Will step out to meet the sun
And this time it is for real
I know the hurt i've made you feel
But i won't let you down
No one else would have me 'round
You gave your love so honestly
Is heaven's grace too good for me
And when the darkness comes
And i lose sight,
Of the precious world
That you put right
You've the strength to pull me through
One last try i'm asking you
And this time it is for real
I know the hurt i've made you feel
But i won't let you down
No one else would have me 'round
You gave your love so honestly
Is heaven's grace too good for me

9. _ Gun Turned On The World
You're walkin' 'round like a doll without a head
You should be thinking 'bout how to give your love instead
I've seen you lying and cheating your way
Then you complain about what all of your friends say
You shoot your mouth like you damn well own the world
We always have to keep our little white flags unfurled
Just try to finish the things that you start
Stop thinking with your fists
And start thinking with your heart
Oh can't you see
Oh what you could be now
You never listen to me
Oh you're like a gun turned on the world
Things have to be attempted one step at a time
You got to take that poison from your eyes
You know the lights are going out in your life
Your killing yourself with your own knife
Oh can't you see
Oh what you could be now
You never listen to me
Oh you're like a gun turned on the world
You don't want a love you need a chaperone
You want a first-class alibi
You bore the pants off people on the telephone
People are sick of your lies
You better open your eyes
You're like a gun turned on the world, like a gun
You're takin' one step forward then two steps back
Friendly advice gets treated like a heart attack
You can drown in the shallow water of hate
Get the sense before it's too late now
Oh can't you see
Oh what you could be now
You never listen to me
Oh you're like a gun turned on the world
Oh can't you see
Oh what you could be now
You never listen to me
Oh you're like a gun turned on the world

10. _ The Voices Are Back
He saw flames in the department store
He tried to get the people to the safety of the door
There was no fire the voices were telling him what to do
You could see from his face he needs someone
To help pull him through
The voices are back they're telling him what to do
The voices are back they're telling him what to do
Ripping through the fabric between his world and the real
He's trying to protect you but
The knife will know that your flesh meets steel
Took him to an institution
And they helped the voices go away
But he didn't have the right set of papers
So they put this boy in jail
The voices are back they're telling him what to do
The voices are back they're telling him what to do
Six weeks turned to twelve
He was locked up for twenty-three hours a day
The warden found him in his cell
His only crime was that he was ill
The voices are back they're telling him what to do
The voices are back they're telling him what to do
