THE
BURNING BRIDGE
October
1993
Take This
Torch And Set It On Fire...
'Cause It
Doesn't, No It Doesn't Matter To Me Anymore.
And I, Oh I
Feel It's For The Best.
And You Know
That's All I Have:
Are My
Thoughts And My Feelings, So Tell Me - -
Oh, It
Doesn't Matter To Me If This Bridge Is Burnt, Oh...
I've Got
What I Needed Oh And I've Always Had, Oh Yeah, Yeah.
{2ndX
only: And I Don't Really Care Anymore If This Bridge Is Burnt,
Oh No, No...}.
And I Feel
Good Watching It Singe In The Wind.
'Cause I Know
With It There, I'd Be Tempted,
Oh I'd Be
Tempted To Walk Over To The Otherside...
(CHORUS)
On The
Otherside I Only Leave -
Emotions,
That No One Never Really Needs:
Unhealthiness,
Unworthiness, and Unholiness.
Not Only Can
I Deal Without These -
But I Should
Never Resolve To Them
(CHORUS)
[Mandolin
instrumental break]
So Tell Me...
(CHORUS)
PRIVATE
PROPERTY 1994
You're In Violation.
You're Not Authorized To Be Here.
No Permits Are Valid.
No Licenses Are Available.
No One Is Allowed To Trespass...
To Protect, Oh I'll Fight.
To Protect, Oh I'll Kill.
To Protect, Oh I'll Fight,
Like A Mother Of A Newborn.
('Cause) You're On Private
Property -
No Man's Land.
You're On Private Property,
And I'll Do Whatever I Can...
Didn't You See The Signs?
This Land Is Posted.
It's Already Claimed - -
And It's All Mine.
And It's All Mine.
(REFRAIN)
(CHORUS)
BRIDGE:
I've Worked So Hard,
So Much Pain.
So Much Hurting,
But I've Made It Out Of These
Woods -
And I'll Let Nothing
Destroy My Work.
(I Just Hope, Your Fear, Is
Strong Enough,
To Keep You, Out Of My Woods...
[RepeatX])
(REFRAIN)
(CHORUS)
COME
AND LOVE ME 1995
Taken In By Your Innocence.
I'm Lost, In A Sense.
Longing For It To Be,
Unless It's Just You And Me...
I Need To Feel Your Touch -
You Know, I Want It So Much.
Come And See Me Tonight,
Then Everything It Will Be Alright...
Come And Love Me,
Lo-ve Me...
And Love Me,
Love Me.
Making Do With My Ignorance.
With DOS, Then I'm Dense.
Wronging A Bit To Me,
Then Let's Take It And See...
(REFRAIN)
(CHORUS)
Finding Hope In The Circumstance.
It's Right, I'm Convinced.
Moving To Set Me Free,
With Help...
Just Let Me Be...
(REFRAIN)
(CHORUS)
Come And Love Me,
Come And Love Me
(REFRAIN)
(CHORUS)
TAKE
ME BACK
(Music)
December 1995 / (Lyrics) November 2005
There Could Be Some Other Way.
Time Allows Us To Travel,
But We Stay.
I Didn't Want To Leave,
I Didn't Want To Say It.
I Could Hardly Believe -
I Could Barely Take It.
My Love...
(Is Forever.)
Wanting To Kiss Your Lips For Years.
Feeling The Burning And Stinging
In My Ears.
Fighting And Wrestling With My
Fears Of Love.
It Can Feel Like Hell.
(CHORUS)
How Do You Tell Someone You Love Them,
Without Making Them Uncomfortable?
What Do They Really Hear
When You Speak Past The Words?
(CHORUS)
There Could Be Some Other Way.
Time Allows Us To Travel, But We Stay.
(CHORUS)
Take Me Back, Take, Take...
Take Me Back, Take, Take...
IF
(I WOULD TELL YOU)
- LARGO 1991
Growing Too Fast,
Learning Too Slow.
Give Me A Reason,
Oh, I Want To Know.
I Can't Keep You Near Me -
Even When We're Alone.
You Are A Part Of Me,
Ooo, That I Need To Own.
Is It Only Passion?
Or, Is It Lust?
Is It Love?
Or, Am I Just Learning To Trust?
If I Would Tell You That I
Love You,
Would You Pull Away From Me
Saying That It's Much Too Soon?
Or, If I Would Tell You That I
Love You
Would You Grow Closer To Me,
Saying That You Feel It Too?
Dance In The Darkness,
By The Light Of The Moon.
Life Is Too Short,
Sometimes You've Got To Make The Room.
I Know What's Wrong,
But I Don't Know What's Right...
If This Is My Destiny,
Then I Want To Stay Here All Night.
(REFRAIN)
(CHORUS)
BRIDGE:
Oh I'm Getting Restless,
Waiting For Our Love To Grow.
I'll Stay Here Forever,
But I Need You To Know...
(REFRAIN)
(CHORUS)
I'm Falling In Love,
I'm Falling In Love, With You...
THE
BERMUDA TRIANGLE December
2005
Where're All The Planes?
Where're All The Boats?
Where're All The People That Have
Gone Missing?
Where're All The Souls,
Where Did They Go?
Baby, Time Traveling -
I'm Afraid To Know...
I Have A Theory About
Bermuda's Triangle -
It's The Twilight Zone.
I Think That It Is A Gateway
To Another World -
That's Not Like Our Own, No...
I'm Gonna Take A Boat And Travel
Right Out To Sea.
I'm Not Scared, And I Don't Feel Danger,
But I Hope Nothing Happens To Me...
I've Heard That People Go Missing -
But I Never Thought It Would Be
Me -
No I Never, Never, Never, Never,
Never, Never, Never,
Never Thought That It Could Be Me...
(CHORUS)
I Think I See The Planes,
I Think I See The Boats...
Where Did The People Go?
I'm Gonna Rescue Them...
Do They Need Help?
And What About Me?
Am I Lost At Sea?
(CHORUS)
Maybe When We Find Them,
They Won't Wanna Come Home.
Maybe It's All Bliss...
Like Something We Missed.
Maybe I'll Never, Ever, Ever,
Never, Ever,
Never Want To Come Home...
Yeah, And Maybe They Never, Ever,
Ever, Never, Ever,
Ever Want To Come Home, No, No...
(CHORUS)
It's Not Like Our Own...
Maybe Baby When We Go After Them,
We Won't Never Ever Wanna Come Back...
In The Triangle,
Bermuda's Triangle...
Never Wanna Come Home -
Oh, No... Never Come Back.
'Might Never...
'Might Never...
'Might Never Want To Come Back.
Maybe It's Bliss,
I Have A Feeling It's Bliss...
Come On Baby, Let's Go,
What Are You Waiting For?
SHELTER
1995
I Wonder Why You Look So Lonely...
I Wonder Why You Look So Sad...
You Say That "No One Ever
Loved Me!"
You Try To Blame It All On Your Dad.
There's Gotta Be A Deeper Reason,
For All The Problems That You've Had.
You've Got To Go Deep Inside It -
Oh I've Been There And It's Not Bad...
Oh, And Oh It's Like Coming Out
Of The Rain,
And Into Shelter.
And Oh, It's Like Starting Over Again,
But I Can't Be Your Shelter...
I Wonder Why You Look So Lonely...
I Wonder Why You Look So Mad...
There's Gotta Be A Deeper Reason
For All The Problems That You've Had.
You've Got To Go Deep To Find It -
Oh I've Been There And It's Not
So Bad...
Oh, And Oh It's Like Getting Out
Of The Rain, And Into Shelter.
And Oh, I'll Go Through It With
You Again,
But I Can't Be Your Shelter...
(Why Do You Look So Lonely?
Why Do You Look So Mad?
Why Do You Look So Mad & Sad?
It's Gotta Be...
Gotta Be A Deeper Reason...)
And Oh, It's Like Coming Out Of
The Rain,
And Into Shelter.
And Oh, It's Like Starting Over Again,
But I Can't Be Your Shelter...
I Wonder Why You Look So Lonely...
(Wonder Why You Look So Lonely?)
I Wonder Why You Look So Mad...
(Why You Look So Mad?)
There's Gotta Be A Deeper Reason
(There's Gotta Be A Deeper Reason)
For All The Problems That You've Had.
(Problems That You Have)
You've Got To Go Deep To Find It
(Gotta Go Deep To Find Them) -
Oh I've Been there And It's Not
So Bad...
(So Bad)
And Oh, It's Like Getting Out Of
The Rain,
And Into Shelter.
And Oh, I'll Go Through It With
You Again,
But I Can't Be Your Shelter...
SUPERDOME
January 2006
My Name Is Not FEMA.
I Won't Be Your Shelter.
Just Like During Katrina,
You've Got To Be Strong,
You've Got To Hold On...
I'm Not Your Superdome.
Don't Wanna Be Your Astrodome.
I'm Not Your Superdome,
Don't Wanna Be Your Astrodome -
I'd Rather Be Alone...
I'd Rather Be Alone...Oh-oh.
I'm Not An Oasis
For Not Covering Your Bases.
You Should Hide - Your Pride.
I'm Unloving When You're Unbecoming.
And I Try To Tear You Down -
When Telling Friends You're Not 'Round.
But It's Really My Own Fear - -
Knowing I Can't Really Hear - -
Myself When I Tell You - -
Oh, When I Tell You...
(CHORUS)
FATAL
ACCIDENT 1994
{"An unexamined life is not
worth living...." Socrates}
Have You Ever Wished For An Accident?
A Fatal Accident To End It All...
It Would Put Me Out Of My Misery,
Oh Yeah-Yeah.
Finally, I Would Be Free From It
All -
No Worries And No Pain.
If Only I Wouldn't Have To Do It,
But It's All I Really Need...
Send Me A Fatal Accident.
Oh, Send Me Flowers.
Send Me Love And A Kiss.
Send Me A Fatal Accident.
Send Me Eternal Peace.
Maybe I Could Get Hit By A Car...
Or Murdered Down In The Subway...
My Head Could Explode From An Aneurysm,
Or I Could Go To Sleep And Never
Wake Up -
Oh Yeah-Yeah...
But Whatever It Is,
Please, Make It Quick!
I'm Tired Of Suffering.
I'm Tired Of Fighting And Always
Crying -
I Just Want To Live My Life In My Dreams...
(CHORUS)
ENNUI
- WORLD BOREDOM
December
2005
Day By Day...
I'm Loosing Touch.
One By One - And Such...
Living Life, But Not Much -
Without Much...
I've Seen It All - -
I've Heard It All - -
I've Learned It All - -
I've Been There - -
I've Done That...
Oh I Loved And I Laughed Until It
Hurt -
Because It Hurt...
World Boredom -
I've Got It Bad...
Wish It Was Only A Fad.
Well, Let Me Tell You 'Bout What
I Know
About How People Cope -
Gives Them Hope...
Come On,
Jump Up And Down,
Falling Down To The Ground,
I'm Getting Up, Getting Up
While I'm Turning Around...
Jump Up And Down,
And Follow The Sound,
Get It Up, Get It Up,
A Beat I've Found.
Jump Up And Down,
Falling Down To The Ground,
I'm Getting Up, Getting Up
While I'm Turning Around...
Jump Up And Down,
And Follow The Sound,
Get It Up, Get It Up,
My Heartbeat, Oh I Have Found...
No More, No More Ennui...
No More, No More Ennui...
Oh, No, No, No, No, No...
My Heartbeat Oh I Have Found...
No More... No More Ennui...
No More, No More Ennui...
Oh, No, No, No, No, No...
I've Found My Traca...
World Boredom -
I've Got It Bad...
Wish It Was Only A Tad.
Well, Let Me Tell You 'Bout What
I Know
About How People Cope -
Gives Them Hope...
And Keeps Ennui
From Me...
(CHORUS, Repeat 2x)
