Daffodil
You are my daffodil
My favorite flower when in bloom
In my tea your petals I will consume
I'll be your shining star
Your favorite album when you're blue
And don't wanna leave the womb
It takes a long time to make love
And longer still to break my heart in two
Realize when the skies open wide
Snow rains down colors everything in black and white
I'll stoke your fire feel the warm red flames
of my desire
Thank God the days are long
At least now I can get something done
Other than dream of you
And he should thank me, too
'Cause of me the sun now shines in you
The darkness fades from view
It takes a long time to make love
And longer still to break my heart in two
Realize when the skies open wide
Snow rains down colors everything in black and white
I'll stoke your fire feel the warm red flames
of my desire
I'll be your shining star
Your favorite album when you're blue
My yellow daffodil
My favorite flower when in bloom

Kiss 4 Nothing

Kiss for Nothing
But can we make a kiss for nothing
all the way to the back of the tongue
breathing out breathing in you remember
just what it means
to be
in love
Can you give a kiss for nothing
A peck on the cheek and one right between the eyes
Move so quick no need for wanting
Feel the heat when two bodies collide
But baby wants her steak au poivre
if she doesn't get it she'll start to scream
and all at once nothing is forgiven
The touch the squeeze the need
So can there be a kiss for nothing
To pass along a chance to know the sky
With every touch every feeling
try and make it something
And take it in give it all back twice as nice
But baby wants her steak au poivre
if she doesn't get it she'll start to bleed
and all at once nothing is forgiven
The touch the squeeze the need
Slightest sound spins her around
Brightest eyes and unwashed hair
Maybe on day 331 I'll be back in Austerlitz
Just left with all my memories
and ashes float into the air
But can we make a kiss for nothing
all the way to the back of the tongue
breathing out breathing in you remember
just what it means
to be
in love

Space Between Us

Space Between Us
I gave you all my money - I gave you all my time
I gave you my last cigarette - You gave me a pack of lies
But is it really something - to be left upon the edge
the razor slowly slices away
The space between us burns me up
just like a candle at both ends
The space between us brings me down
and I just keep on spinning around
Your call is slow in coming - Your call comes when it can
Your call brings me such happiness - But I call that second hand
But is it really something - to be left upon the edge
the razor slowly slices away
The space between us burns me up - just like a comet in the sky
The space between us brings me down
And I just keep on spinning around - around around around
I wish you joy and penitence - I wish you common sense
I wish you'd take this step with me - You want you hope you wish
But is it really something - to be left upon the edge
the razor slowly slices away
The space between us burns me up
just like a candle at both ends
The space between us brings me down
and I just keep on spinning around
The space between us burns me up - just like a comet in the sky
The space between us brings me down
And I just keep on spinning around - around around around

That Was Then and This Is Now
Have you ever ever had to choose
between up and between down?
And did you wind up on the wrong side
of your ill-begotten town?
You took the long way around
But did you know with every choice
there is no right and there’s no wrong?
Just a different path that we must take
and then we find where we belong
We’re all in this place together
We’re all in this mess together
Well that was then and this is now
You've gotta make your way somehow
Ain’t no fast-forward ain’t no rewind
just sit back and live it down
Don’t be mistaken - keep looking forward
not behind you – the past is there to remind you
that was then and this is now
Take a look at everyone
Well first they’re here and then they’re gone
Some will win and some will lose
But you can’t worry about where you are
We’re all in this place together
We’re all in this mess together
Well that was then and this is now
You've gotta make your way somehow
Ain’t no fast-forward ain’t no rewind
just sit back and live it down
Don’t be mistaken - keep looking forward
not behind you – the past is there to remind you
that was then and this is now

The Kindred Spirit
Always forsaken, I am naked
Standing in front of a seething mass of flesh
Set before me, the past life that bore me
Remove the negation and deal with what is left
I am the kindred spirit
Close your eyes and kneel before the son of man
I sing of powerful pain relief,
spreading the gospel of this apostle
Can't see through me they've tried to sue me
Left 'em by the wayside just like all the rest
Still can't teach me I happen to like the
way I'm used to and the deepness of my depth
I am the kindred spirit
Open your eyes, the fear resides within yourself
I am the kindred spirit - Take my hand
we are one step closer to our deaths
All the millions through dominion's doors have passed
Haunting faces falling victim to my trance
Old dreams, strange dreams keep coming back
Keeps you guessing up until the very last
They ask me why I'm so happy
I've broken out of this steaming mass of flesh
Don't hate me because you can't reach me
I'm not as far gone as my image would suggest
I am the kindred spirit
Open your eyes and kneel before the son of man
I sing of powerful pain relief,
Life sometimes seems like just a yawn and a half
I am the kindred spirit, I am the kindred spirit

The Train

The Train
Walk slowly beside me - avert your eyes slightly
The time is short but the love will set us free
Temptation led me here - Desire makes me stay
But like all good things this too has lost its way
Take me away on this silver streak
Fading away, ‘til next time we meet
I’m going down - Put me on a train - to another town
One day is all we ask - One kiss is all we need -
But I’m taking the Train
Fate steps in once again - with a love that makes me sway
But like all good things this too has lost its way
Drifting away on these silken sheets
Fading away, ‘til next time we meet
I’m going down - Put me on a train - to another town
One day is all we ask - One kiss is all we need - I’m taking the Train
All Aboard!
Train is leaving
Don’t cry when I say good-bye
Put me on the Train

The Cries
No matter how much you put in it’s never enough
Fill it up with little pieces just for the rush
And still you keep on searching for the pleasure
the diamond in the rough
Well it really makes me miss the finer people
the ones I love so much
Better make a better life better meaning of love
Don’t make me have to come to feel you to make you make love
And still you keep on searching for her pleasure
the diamond in the rough
Well you really make me miss the finer people
the ones I love so much
So who will walk in my shoes? --- Who will put on my faded blues?
Who can tell me how I should feel?
Who can show me that love is real?
If you would be mine, I would be yours, too
No need to waste time, ‘cause time is all we’ve got to count on
I will be yours, be yours
Paint yourself a pretty picture and sign it in your blood
Post it on your wall to show everyone what’s really going on
And still you keep on searching for your pleasure
the diamond in the rough
Well you really make me miss the finer people
the ones I love so much
So who will walk in my shoes? --- Who will put on my faded blues?
Who can tell me how I should feel?
Who can show me that love is real?
So who will walk in my shoes?
Who will put on my faded blues?
Had to walk a mile just to get a ride
And how many people seem to pass me by
And I ...
Don’t wanna feel pain anymore
I tried...
to make love and to ignore
the cries
No matter how much you put in it’s never enough

Lovers

Lovers
We could be lovers
Nothing would make a difference to you, or me
The rain would fall down and we would
shed our skins and be held tight
underneath the magic mood of the umbrella
The time to discover
just what we are made of
The fear only rises when we don't respond to it
How can we make love when there are no eyes upon us
oh ho just to feel another second of your grope
So let's be lovers
Nothing could stand in the way of you, or me
The world would spin round
and we would watch as everything goes by
oblivious to all but the eyes of each other
The chance to discover
Just what we are made of
Baby can rock and baby can roll
But can she bust a rhyme, well
We just don't know
Thinking it over
It's only just begun I'm happy to say - oh hooray
We take it as it comes and we would
spend the days and share the nights
drinking up and taking the time to discover
How to be lovers
Cause now we are lovers

By Any Other Name
By any other name - Call it a rose
Any other flower would not be the same
Therein the beauty lies beholden to the eyes
The dreams I used to have
Been told they're not for me
The pathway to success through conformity
Throw away myself my originality
Didn't know that I was so ugly
You can't imagine what it's like
to have to live from day to day
with such an ordinary life
I can show you what it is to be like us
Just a nip and tuck the curves, 'v' lines you trust
How you ever could have gone through life with such a face
whooo you poor little - oohhh you poor little
wilted thing
Just another face planted in the crowd
Used to lie apart but now that is not allowed
forgetting what it's like to be different, to be me
now I look like all of you should that make me happy
who am I trying to be?
You can't imagine what it's like
to have to live from day to day
with such an ordinary life
Glad you've come to your true sense and your beliefs
Now you look like us and soon you'll feel relief
Your future's rosy now just forget what you have inside you
you pretty young thing -- now you'll make it
farther than you think
If you can take it -- our reality
By any other name
It's just a rose
Any other flower
would not be the same
Therein the beauty lies
beholden to the eyes
Who then is it who decides?
