Such is the way of the world
You can never know
Just where to put all your faith
And how will it grow
Gonna rise up
Burning back holes in dark memories
Gonna rise up
Turning mistakes into gold
Such is the passage of time
Too fast to fold
And suddenly swallowed by signs
Low and behold
Gonna rise up
Find my direction magnetically
Gonna rise up
Throw down my ace in the hole
A candy-colored clown they call the sandman
Tiptoes to my room every night
Just to sprinkle stardust and to whisper
Go to sleep, everything is all right
I close my eyes
Then I drift away
Into the magic night
I softly say
A silent prayer
Like dreamers do
Then I fall asleep to dream
My dreams of you
In dreams I walk with you
In dreams I talk to you
In dreams you're mine
All of the time we're together
In dreams in dreams
But just before the dawn
I awake and find you gone
I can't help it
I can't help it
If I cry
I remember that you said goodbye
It's too bad that all these things
Can only happen in my dreams
Only in dreams
In beautiful dreams
She's a good girl, loves her mama
Loves Jesus and America too
She's a good girl, is crazy 'bout Elvis
Loves horses and her boyfriend too
It's a long day living in Reseda
There's a freeway runnin' through the yard
And I'm a bad boy cos I don't even miss her
I'm a bad boy for breakin her heart
Now I'm free, free fallin'
Yeah I'm free, free fallin'
All the vampires walkin' through the valley
Move west down Ventura Boulevard
And all the bad boys are standing in the shadows
And the good girls are home with broken hearts
Now I'm free, free fallin'
Yeah I'm free, free fallin'
I wanna glide down over Mullholland
I wanna write her name in the sky
Gonna free fall out into nothin'
Gonna leave this world for a while
Now I'm free, free fallin'
Yeah I'm free, free fallin'
Red, red wine
Go to my head
Make me forget that I
Still need her so
Red, red wine
It's up to you
All I can do, I've done
But memories won't go
No, memories won't go
I'd have sworn
That with time
Thoughts of you
Would leave my head
I was wrong
And I find
Just one thing
Makes me forget
Red, red wine
Stay close to me
Don't let me be alone
It's tearing apart
My blue, blue heart
I can't remember anything
Can't tell if this is true or dream
Deep down inside I feel to scream
This terrible silence stops me.
Now that the war is through with me
I'm waking up I cannot see
That there is not much left of me
Nothing is real but pain now.
Hold my breath as I wish for death
Oh please god, wake me...
Back in the womb it's much too real
In pumps life that I must feel
But can't look forward to reveal
Look to the time when I'll live.
Fed through the tube that sticks in me
Just like a Wartime Novelty
Tied to machines that make me be
Cut this Life off from Me.
Hold My Breath as I Wish for Death
Oh Please God, wake Me.
Now the World Is Gone I`m Just One
Oh God, help Me
Hold my breath as I wish for death
Oh please god, help me.
Darkness
Imprisoning Me
All That I See
Absolute Horror
I Cannot Live
I Cannot Die
Trapped in Myself
Body My Holding Cell...
Landmine
Has taken my Sight
Taken my Speech
Taken my Hearing
Taken my Arms
Taken my Legs
Taken my Soul
Left me with life in Hell.
