- Ballad of Vitaly
"Ballad Of Vitaly"
In the German sky there once was a plane
It carried 71 children and their mothers to Spain
Well, this plane was sure somethin'
It was full of young Russians
Proudly to gander at topics discussin'
- Bushwick Blues
Hold on to my hand
Never let go
Never let go
We were just two kids acting tough
Then we grew up
Me, not so much
All the other guys that you've seen
- California
I want you to move to California for yourself,
I want you to find whatever your heart needs,
I want you to move to California for yourself, but not for me.
I want you to go out there and find somebody else,
I want him to treat you like I know he should,
I want you to find somebody new for yourself, if not for me.
- House Built For Two
House built for two
half step down
C Dm G C (over and over)
The years have been turning on
You left me at home
- Live On
When Miguel hit the ground,
I threw the padlock in the trash.
Finally found out,
just how much it takes.
For one whole year he spent,
making me turn red.
Forget the light ahead,
- Parade
Living like they never thought they ever could
Paupers begging like the forest turned to soot
Burning out the sun
Gonna get mine before the end is come
Liars practice tricks for ten percent of growth
Conspire, represent the people in their homes
When I cursed this day
- People C'mon
I'm a wandering soul
I got no place of my own
Well I got nothing to give
Well I got nothing to show for it
And I'll be wondering all, for all my years
What I become no one could know
If you're feeling what I'm feeling c'mon
- People, Turn Around
Eighteen and jaded with guns in their hands
They were fighting for freedom and just what is that?
Bills to the banks and food for the kids
Money for college but couldn't get in
Made all the grades but got taken to task
By a man in an alley wearing a mask
Screamed and she begged as the people walked by
- Salt In The Wound
I want to disappear
Far from the folks I know
I want to get an answer
To why I was even born
No one here can tell me
What's been haunting me all my life
Well, this rat race has left me limping
- Strange Vine
It’s such a strange vine
Wrapped around my neck
All twisted up between my stem
Between my stem
I’m tripping and fallen over
Things we just couldn’t get over
I tried my best
- The Wreck
Too much talk bout myself,
Drags me straight down to hell.
Finally hearing from you,
Pulls me back off the rail.
You don't expect apologies.
You always see the best in me.
I'm the lucky fool that you married.
- Trashcan
Brothers hold the line till we got something
This world is way too small to feel like nothing
I was found at the train tracks looking so homeless at you
You came like a copper, you said, "Son, it's time to move"
My love is coming, I can barely hardly wait around
When my mother left the bat was the only one here
He is just a reason why I'm still here
My mother's well spoken though I didn't get that gene
- White Table
Meet me darlin', won't you?
I've been waiting for you
At my lonesome white table
Ready, willing, and able
Torn in two
Beaten and scarred
I'll give you my love but not my heart
- Yamaha
So cold, I know you can't believe it
Sometimes you gotta face the feelin'
You don't care if you don't get up again
There's a thousand things I will not understand
Now you're dealin' with the hell I put you through
If I had my way I would be right there next to you
There's certain things in life you cannot change
There's certain things
- Yha
