Everything Must Go

EVERYTHING MUST GO


Everything Must Go

Shed some skin for the fear within
Is starting to hurt me with everything

Freed from the memory
Escape from our history, history

And I just hope that you can forgive us
But everything must go

And if you need an explanation
Then everything must go

I look to the future it makes me cry
But it seems too real to tell you why

Freed from the century
With nothing but memory, memory

And I just hope that you can forgive us
But everything must go

And if you need an explanation
Then everything must go

Freed us eventually just need to be happy, happy

And I just hope that you can forgive us
But everything must go

And if you need an explanation
Then everything must go

And I just hope that you can forgive us
But everything must go

And if you need an explanation, -nation
Then everything must go


Black Garden

Glory glory Hallelujah
His truth goes marching on

Swing
Swing

There's a little part of me
There's a little part of you
Remember the feeling
Of a frozen embryo

There's a bigger part of me
There's a bigger part of you
Remember the place where
You don't want to go

Welcome into your own black garden
It's full of life but it's still too frightening
Can't open my eyes this whiteness blinds
All this whiteness blinds

Watch the swallows cloud the sky
Watch the swallows slowly die
I used to throw stones
But now I have none

Watch the swallows cloud the sky
Watch the swallows slowly die
I used to throw stones
But now I have none

Waiting to be bred in the black garden
Waiting to be muted and then chosen
White trash you're a swinger
Ugly to the end
Ugly to the end

Swing
Swing



Hanging On

Hold me down
I don't ever want to see the day
When my time will come
Is it ever gonna end?

I'm not here
Wish the last of the year
Where do we go now?
Another blackout

Hanging on to nothing
Hanging on to nothing
Hanging on to nothing
Hanging on to nothing

I'm not real
But I'd like to have a chance to feel
Before we reach the time
Decide what now is right

I'm not here
Wish the last of the year
Where do we go now?
Another blackout

Hanging on to nothing
Hanging on to nothing
Hanging on to nothing
Hanging on to nothing

Hanging on to nothing
Hanging on to nothing
Hanging on to nothing
Hanging on to nothing

And nothing and nothing is nothing


No One Knows What It's like To be Me

To all the people who've hurt me
To all the life that has left me
To all the longing that lost me
To all the future that scares me

To all the words that have drained me
To all the questions that bored me
To all the people that believed me
To all the money that blinded me

No-one knows what it's like to be me
No-one knows what it's like to be me

To all the skies that have reached for me
To all the oceans that drowned me
To all the rain that has soothed me
To all the sun that depressed me

To all the people who lived in fear
To all the life that is held so dear
To all the empty souls who still despair
I know it's the same for everyone

No-one knows what it's like to be me
No-one knows what it's like to be me
Doctor and dentist, housewife and thief
No-one knows what it's like to be me

No-one knows what it's like to be me
No-one knows what it's like to be me
Doctor and dentist, housewife and thief
No-one knows what it's like to be me


Raindrops Keep Falling On My Head

Raindrops keep fallin' on my head
But that doesn't mean my eyes will soon be turning red
Crying's not for me
Oh, 'cause I ain't gonna stop the rain by complainin'

Cause I just done me some talkin' to the sun
And I said I didn't like the way he got things done
Sleepin' on the job
Oh raindrops keep fallin' on my head
Keep a-fallin'

But there's one thing I know
The blues they send to meet me won't defeat me
It won't be long till happiness steps up to greet me,
to greet, greet, greet, greet me

Raindrops keep fallin' on my head
Just like the guy whose feet are too big for his bed
Nothin' seems to fit
Oh, 'cause I ain't gonna stop the rain
Can't remember the words to save my fucking life

Because I'm free, nothin's botherin' me
Because I'm free, nothin's botherin' me
Because I'm free, nothin's botherin' me
Because I'm free, nothin's botherin' me
