"Glass Fool"

I thought you were weeping when I slipped out, the screen door slams maybe you awoke or stopped playing pretend I'm not going to lie no more I'm not going to lie again Are you tired of running and not getting ahead? There are reasons that we run you know They're all inside your head I could have stayed but my mind sniffed at the old decay Eighteen years I kissed this place goodbye No more last nights In the same hotels, where the coopers sells and all the sense I had went down the wishing well This city ain't dead to me It's got an eternal last breath Are you tired of running and not getting ahead? There are reasons that we run you know They're all inside your head The newspaper falls on your east side porch The radio reports another white wine display There's one who fights and one who races up through the hills and interstate Are you tired of running and not getting ahead? There are reasons why we run you know They're all inside your head They're all inside your head They're all inside your head

She won't lose her innocence she won't bite her tongue She'll make time for memories when the works still not done She won't throw her shadows ever my way She'll tell me near everything I'll know every word she says to me This is the kind of woman I need She'll tell me I'm strange not tell me I'm wrong Let that old string be however long She'd Love Me Tender She'd Love Me True She'd do it for Elvis She'd do it for me This is the kind of woman I need She'll mispronounce my name for a week Correcting her twice wouldn't help it sink in One of a kind I'd let her down slow she'd feel so foolish she'd feel like hiding alone but she wouldn't leave This is the kind of woman I need This is the kind of woman I need Endlessly exposed but forever composed her wisdoms for her and not for to boast She'd take the paddock instead of the path She's following heart and seldom is she following me This is the kind of woman I need This is the kind of woman I need She's telling it all not telling her truth to me Breaking my mould she's my best enemy Not acting herself she's not acting at all Forgetting she's human forgetting that she's The kind of woman I need She's the kind of woman I need She's the kind of woman I need This is the kind for me This is the kind of woman I need

Well it feels like love got the better of me again I was reaching out for something that never was real I wish I'd known back then I took your scent and tied it to ours stories end Always thinking back to when your perfume made me weak I wish we'd never met 'Cause now I know Hidden between the sainthood and the cruel Everybody's Still Somebody's Fool You took me to the land My knees, and then my hands, they followed I heard you slept with a football star but you were not mine to keep I wish I'd never known I'm saddened when you're distant and I'm distant when you're near I dreamt our love was sacred but how dreams do dissapear I wish I'd told you then 'Cause now I know Hidden between the sainthood and the cruel Everybody's Still Somebody's Fool Everybody's Still Somebody's Fool Well I know now love got the better of me and so I feel like forced forgetting substitutes me letting go but I can't be letting go no I can't be letting go I can't be letting go 'Cause now I know Hidden between the sainthood and the cruel Everybody's Still Somebody's Fool Everybody's Still Somebody's Fool Everybody's Still Somebody's Fool

Still I Fall 03:43
I put my love on hold 'til I'm in control now I'm dead with patience or dying cold I've never felt so small so when freedom calls Well I won't be swinging like a wrecking ball 'Cause it feels like all that I've fallen for It's the same old love that I've felt before and it never changes, but still I fall Well we'll move out and you'll touch my face while we're dancing in the pooring rain Then I won't answer, I'll be careless I'll need help, but have no one to call Well I keep on falling for again and still I fall Now I'm feeling like before at another door making the same mistakes I was before but nothing ever changes, nothing ever changes nothing ever changes anymore We're carelss, impatient, all get frustrated when freedoms through the other door but nothing ever changes, nothing ever changes nothing ever changes anymore 'Cause it feels like all that I've fallen for It's the same old love that I've felt before and it never changes, but still I fall Well I keep on falling for again

Lay your letters down Lay your letters down Let me hold your thoughts Won't you breathe with me, breathe with me We'll forget we ever fought Read me when I'm down Read me when I'm down I'll take you when I'm floating When you sink, when you sink I'm pulling you to shore When I hold you darling When I hold you darling Just a touch on this hand For now, forever I could watch you Hang my heart on a star and trust you'll understand Take my hand Show your world to me Show your world to me Let me deep inside Won't you stay with me, stay with me I don't care if it's right When I hold you darling When I hold you darling Just a touch on this hand For now, forever I could watch you Hang my heart on a star and trust you'll understand Take my hand Lay your letters down Lay your letters down Let me hold your thoughts Won't you breathe with me, breathe with me We'll forget we ever fought

Blind 03:11
Quarelling and quivering Coming out and coming in Pretending that I knew you once A conversation every month Marriages and melancholy Steeples, Sex and wine so holy Horrid lines drawn in the deep You follow visions while you sleep This could send me spiteful This could turn me kind You won't guilt me into nothing I'll pretend I'm Blind I'll pretend I'm Blind I'll pretend I'm Blind Battling and bottling All that this frustration brings Everything I said you'd hold Is all that's empty in your soul Riddling and rambling Everything is not what it seems I'm supposed to know you best You make me feel I know you less This could send me spiteful This could turn me kind You won't guilt me into nothing I'll pretend I'm Blind I'll pretend I'm Blind Blind, Blind

Gone, Gone, Gone are the rolling stones and the travellers forever forgotten to see where those travellers had trodden I thought I knew of love like a true white dove I've left my home at eighteen years old I saw the sea and the sea saw me from valleys to temples and rain but I couldn't be a preacher for pain Gone Is the ever, Gone Is the ever unknown Gone Is the ever, Gone Is the ever unknown who is tempting to send them down stream Cruel, Cruel, Cruel is the kind old curse Down, Down, Down to the waters coffee brown bound for rapids before they've seen the sea Gone Is the ever, Gone Is the ever unknown Gone Is the ever, Gone Is the ever unknown Gone, Gone, Gone is the ever unknown so let this be a vowel to take your turn I thought I saw the sea and the sea saw me truth speaks, we've all so much to learn Gone Is the ever, Gone Is the ever unknown Gone Is the ever, Gone Is the ever unknown

At the waters edge lost in the reeds I noticed something then forgot how to breathe I recall she whispered “It's soon on it's way” I know I said something with no idea what to say I'm hearing distant echoes as though I'm still afraid Up here on the borderline of sufference and ache It's hard to walk, It's hard to wait It's hard to stay awake I know I broke it I felt the poor hand shake I'm sure it's only war and bickering to blame I stare to the ripples followed by the rising tide I await the remedy that's both hers and mine I'm hearing distant echoes as though I'm still afraid Up here on the borderline of sufference and ache It's hard to walk, It's hard to wait It's hard to stay awake

Bad Lover 03:26
I'm starting to see there are pieces of me that don't quite work, they exist just to hurt I am needing to learn but only I can teach me Things will always work out you just have to believe Don't get hurt 'cause I'm a bad lover, a bad lover Don't get hurt 'cause I'm a bad lover, a bad lover Reasons untold why I've acted bold 'cause there is history I hide to help keep me whole pain I've pushed aside, lord knows I've not lied but I don't keep no secrets I just keep what is better off mine Don't get hurt 'cause I'm a bad lover, a bad lover Don't get hurt 'cause I'm a bad lover, a bad lover I'm asking for freedom not asking for time don't be cruel you know were selfish sometimes You can't make a mortal choose between love and love resentment is sure when your passion is lost Don't get hurt 'cause I'm a bad lover, a bad lover Don't get hurt 'cause I'm a bad lover, a bad lover

Back at the start wearing the scars It's 4 cents up, 2 dollars down It's not like Im a fool or uncontrollable everybodies got there habits and their doubts I know I know I know this is a selfish game I know I sold and traded all I had for hurt & pain I know I know I know I know this aint the wisest way But we were never taught to quit I lost the game over and over again But I'm the one that never shows All I ever loaned Made me lonlier No one for me not even as my enemy I know I know I know this is a selfish game I know I sold and traded all I had for hurt & pain I know I know I know I know this aint the wisest way But we were never taught to quit I know I know I know this is a worthless game I know I sold and traded all I had for hurt and pain I know I know I know I know these are such childish ways I know I'll turn in time you just give me one more day I know I know I know I know I know I know I know I know I know I know this ain't the wisest way I sold I sold I sold I sold all my hope for blame I know I'm not to hold onto my thoughts this way I know what lonliness is and I've dealt with shame I know I know I know I know this aint the only way But we were never taught to quit we were never taught to quit
