Pleased To Meet You

God's dead, this state is torture.
Find me shade and bring me water.
Holding on.
I'm thirsty for your sage.
Back at the ranch i just got slaughtered.
Too many shoulds, too many orders.
Better come out, holding onto faith.

Let the sun begin to shine through your night
Let the light reveal disguise in your life.

Work kills! it's killing me slowly
And what is the point in being so lonely?
Who do you love?
Who do you love above all?
If you want to live some life gets slaughtered
But they'd sell their sons and daughters
Who do you love?
Who do you love above all?
How can we fail less we really want to
Under the drum of some local voodoo curse
We can change our fate

Let the sun begin to shine through you night
Let the light reveal disguise in your life

Break my shape - in light i trust
None exist - save space and dust
None exist - just lights in time
Space divides the borderline

Don't exist just lights in time
Space divides the changing line
Space between and space inside
My four walls my shape defines
Space defines

You'd better get over yourself
You gotta get out of the frame
Gotta learn to see yourself
A total stranger
You gotta get out of the frame
Gotta give yourself a brand new name
Gotta learn to see yourself
A total stranger

It's a shock to my system
To wind up back where i have come from
It's a crime in my child's eyes
To find out life is in disguise

You'd better get over yourself
You gotta get out of the frame
Gotta learn to see yourself a total stranger
You gotta get out of the frame
Gotta give yourself a brand new name
Gotta learn to see yourself
A total stranger

It's a shock to my system,
To wind up back,
Where i have come from.
It's a crime ,in my child's eyes,
To find out life,
Is in disguise

It's a shock to my system,
To wind up back, where i have come from
It's a crime,
To my child's eyes,
To find lifes' in disguise
Oh no , it's gone
It's gone, nothing to hold me
Oh no , it's gone it's gone
Nothing to hold me

Calling ,calling, calling you to see through me

I wish i could create myself
A kool machine designed to help
Not always hurting
Just plug me in and do the rounds
Impress your friends
Save yourself pounds
I'll not be wanting
I wish that things could be that way
But every dog must have its say
The orchestra's tuning
I understand your suffering
I felt the same sting in my heart
That's why i'm singing

Drifting away as lovers do
Heads you win and tails i lose
Nothing to say
Much less to do
Unhappy me unhappy you

I know you want it all to end
Transform a love into a friend
Magicians can do
Gut feelings come
Gut feelings go
Like rivers we have no control
They just keep flowing
Yeah, i wish i could create myself
A cool machine or someone else
A lot less knowing

Drifting away as lovers do
Heads you win
And tails i lose
Nothing to say
Much less to do
Unhappy me
Unhappy you
Love can heal
And love can sting
Heads you lose
And tails i win
Unhappy me
Unhappy you
Nothing to say
And much less to do

There's nothing to say
I get in the way
Unable to break obsession
There's nothing to say
I get in the way
Still unable to break obsession

Scared to be alone
Frightened of the dark
Everything's too much
For a boy out of touch with his feelings

I must be to blame
I must be at fault
I believe i'm never good enough
To shine a light that lingers

I have witnessed starbursts in your coal
Black eyes
I am what i try to deny
I have seen the serpent coiling set to strike
And love is the usual disguise

Pleased to meet you
Where you from
And what's your name?

Never came alive
Never cut the cord
Nothing is too much for a boy out of touch
With his feelings

Worshipping the moonshine
Skinning up the grapevine
I don't have a plan where i'm going
I just follow my fingers

I will be the burning man
To grace these times
I am what i try to deny
I reflect the same eyes looking back at me
And love is the only reply

Pleased to meet you
Where you from and what's your name

We're more than enough
Dead ringers

Pleased to meet you
Where you from
And what's your name ?
What's your name ?

You might as well surrender now
You'll never hold that stance
With all my words
I can't find one
To make you understand
It's not too late
Take up the cup
Put down your weapons and choose
But you say," life's so unfair"
All you say is "life's so unfair."
Oh you can ill afford to hold to these views
Oh you need someone to blame
But it's you, yes it's you
It's your truth

Someone made you
I don't know if you're sick
I comfort. you runaway
My sympathy. you twist it.
You're reflex. gets in the way.
You mother me. i son you.
You act up. i can't get through.
These footsteps so ancient.
In your eyes i'm your infant.
Your ancient. full circle.
In my eyes you're my infant.
Dead ball in our court
We've got a deadfall in our court

You just say, "life's so unfair."
You just say, "life's so unfair."
You need something to blame
But it's you, yes it's you
It's your truth

Are you aching for the blade
That's o.k.
Were insured
Are you aching for the grave
That's o.k.
Were insured

Were getting away with it
All messed up
Getting away with it
All messed up
That's the living

Daniel's saving grace
She's out in deep water
Hope he's a good swimmer

Daniel plays his ace
Deep inside his temple
He knows how to surf her

Were getting away with it
All messed up
Getting away with it
All messed up
That's the living

Daniel drinks his weight
Drinks like richard burton
Dance like john travolta, now.

Daniel's saving grace
He was all but drowning
Now they live like dolphins

Getting away with it
All messed up
Getting away with it
All messed up
That's the living
Getting away with it
Getting away with it
Getting away with it
That's the living
That's the living
