Listen close. I sold my soul for this one. Just dream and dream always, For in this life all else is death and taxes. Ooh la la.

It's not two separate things, it's one I got upset about the gun to my head You got upset because you can't shoot me dead It's not two separate things, it's one No, it's not two separate things, it's one You distance yourself because I won't let you fly You're so far away and I can't understand why It's not two separate things, it's one I've cried so many tears over a period of some odd years Some of the times I've walked it off for a mile And other times I've acted out like a child But I've been worn to the bone Yeah, I've been worn to the bone My threads have unraveled slow Sitting here pondering the thief in the night How everything goes wrong before one thing goes right How I felt so alone in a world of blind sight But if there was no god then who turned out the lights And once again, I fell down and cried. It's not two separate things, it's one I'm ready for a new year.

I have no need for a Loch Ness Lover But you look so majestic for five seconds in the shadow I have no need for a Loch Ness Lover All it took was one glance, and I had to get another It just doesn't seem fair Your like a fairy tale I can never touch My Loch Ness Lover Your beauty is something rare I've never seen before I can't move, I can't move I'm frozen in time at the moment I first saw you Why should I even care? You're most likely just my mind playin' tricks on me If this is a dream I'll just turn my weary back on reality My Loch Ness Lover I have no need for a Loch Ness Lover But I have no grief with a Loch Ness Lover

Mother nature nurses me Her presents always near Why else would I bear the heat Waiting for this time of year Waiting for the desert rain Come on people time to feel the healing powers of the desert rain Cool, cool, cool water If we repeat this mantra while we dance, The sun will never put us in a trance The rain is coming Mother nature curses me Fills me full of fear Dehydration's setting in If life is short the end is always near Waiting for the desert rain Can't you smell it in the air? It's here and there The essence of a desert rain (backwards solo to the "ooohs")

Sun Trance 03:57
Saw an old friend today And asked him if he was doing fine Said that he'd lost his way While searching for the meaning in it all That's when I turned to him and said: Staring into the light sometimes may strain your eyes If direction never comes then moving on Is exactly wherever you're facing Don't be afraid of the dark in the night For every moment of darkness there's a moment of light Told a close friend today Ambition comes and goes with age The future looks so unclear It sometimes scares the hell out of me That's when she turned to me and said: Staring into the light sometimes may hurt your eyes If reflection brings you down then look away Because you're living as long as you're dreaming Don't be afraid of the dark in the night For every moment of darkness there's a moment of light Yes, every moment of darkness has its moment of light

I remember that night, I remember it well I got so blushed, and the moon got so pale You left your scarf in the seat of my van I just can't help but believe that was planned Yeah, what's the point in winning if you can't show your hand? Girl, you're trouble And you're dangerous Oh, silly me, what a silly thing to think you wouldn't get your way I told you something I could never repeat You simply replied with a kiss on the cheek And when I got home you showed up at my door It must've been about a quarter to four Yeah, you must've apologized ten times or more And I didn't let you in No I didn't let you in Because you're trouble And you're dangerous Oh, silly me, what a silly mistake to let you walk away

If the city's got you down' And you're friends are not around I'm not far, just the other side of town If things haven't turned out right And you're blinded by the light There's a place, you can see the stars at night Far away from the sssssscity sssssstatic Standing clear of the noisy racket Far away from the sssssscity sssssstatic Far away from the static If I say that I love you And you say you love me too Then this place could be our Waterloo Sunset Come and join me on my roof

Don't you live in darkness, you vampyre queen? What would happen if I shed some light upon your scene? Would you burn in the sunshine? Would you burn in the sunshine? You vampyre queen, you vampyre queen You drink and drink, drink and drink You're a monster Rise up from your coffin, you vampyre queen Don't you know the moon is full and the underground's waiting? How do you put on your makeup When you're not in the mirror? The way you drink and drink You're like a super villain Oh, you're sucking all the blood Right out the vein of your society Would you burn in the sunshine? Would you burn in the sunshine? You're a monster

When it rains, it pours And I'm in a shit storm Since I've gotten older I don't lay my head on your shoulder No more, no more, I can't even keep my own house warm Momma, rain me down some mercy These tears just make me dirty Remember when you'd tuck me in And I'd fall fast asleep With all my love, Your little black sheep (really, the house on the cover is at the end of the rainblow)
