(Whoa-oh, oh-oh) Fightin' on my own (whoa-oh, oh-oh) It happens every other day Since the moment that I wake up I wanna pack and run away 'Cause the birds are singin' Bells are ringin' Walls are comin' down Another life, another day But I don't wanna talk about it Yeah, we can find another time 'Cause the birds are singin' Bells are ringin' Walls are comin' down I keep feelin' anxious, baby These are the nights that I just keep feelin' nervous Help me Why do I feel like I'm fightin' on my own?

(...Go Mossy, come on Mossy...) When the war is over got to get away Pack my bags to no place in no time no day You and I we used each other's shoulder Still so young but somehow so much older How can I go home and not get blown away You and I had our sights set on something Hope this doesn't mean our days are numbered 'Cause I've got plans for more than a wanted man All around this chaos and madness Can't help feeling nothing more than sadness Only choice to face it the best I can When the war is over got to start again Try to hold a trace of what it was back then You and I we used each other's story Just a page I'm lost in all it's glory And how can I go home and not get blown away Ain't nobody gonna steal this heart away (no no no no) Ain't nobody gonna steal this heart away (oh, this heart away) Ain't nobody gonna steal this heart away (nobody gonna steal) Ain't nobody gonna steal this heart away Ain't nobody gonna steal this heart away (no no no) Ain't nobody gonna steal this heart away Thank you

Once upon a time When the world was just a pancake Fears would arise That if you went too far, you'd fall But with the passage of time It all became more of a ball We're as sure of that As we all once were when the world was flat So I wonder this As life billows smoke inside my head This little game Where nothing is sure, oh-oh Why would you play by the rules? Who did? You did, you (who did? You did) Who did? You did, you When was it killed? The very last dodo bird And was she aware She was the very last one? So I wonder this As life billows smoke inside my head This little game Where nothing is sure, oh-oh Why would you play by the rules? (Who did? You did) Who did? You did, you (who did? You did, you) Who did? You did, you (who did?) You say, "Who did?" Girl you did, you If all the things that you are saying now Were true enough, but still, what is all the worrying about? We can work it out We can work it Oh, I wonder this As life billows smoke inside my head This little game Where nothing is sure, oh-oh Why would you play by the rules? (Who did? You did, you) Who did? You did, you (who did? You did, you) Who did? You did, you (who did?) You say, "Who did? You did, you

Cyrus Jones 1810 to 1913 Made his great grandchildren believe You could live to a hundred and three A hundred and three is forever when you're just a little kid So Cyrus Jones lived forever Gravedigger When you dig my grave Could you make it shallow?

The world is blowing up The world is caving in The world has lost her way again But you are here with me But you are here with me Makes it ok I hear you still talk to me As if you're sitting in that dusty chair Makes the hours easier to bare I know despite the years alone I'll always listen to you sing your sweet song And if it's all the same to you I love you oh so well Like a kid loves candy and fresh snow I love you oh so well Enough to fill up heaven overflow and fill hell Love you oh so well And it's cold and darkness falls It's as if you're in the next room so alive I could swear I hear you singing to me I love you oh so well Like a kid loves candy and fresh snow I love you oh so well Enough to fill up heaven overflow and fill hell Love you oh so well The world is blowing up The world is caving in The world has lost her way again But you are here with me But you are here with me Makes it ok Oh girl you are singing to me still Like a kid loves candy and fresh snow I love you oh so well Enough to fill up heaven overflow and fill hell Love you oh so well

Come and see I swear by now I'm playing time against my troubles I'm coming slow but speeding Do you wish for a dance And while I'm in the front My play on time is won But the difficulty is coming here I will go in this way And I'll find my own way out I won't tell you what to be But I'm coming to much more Me, All at once the ghosts come back Reeling in you now (Oh tell me) what if they came down crushing And used to be, that you and me played for All of the loneliness that nobody notices now Oh, I'm begging slow I'm coming here (Yeah...) Only waiting I wanted to stay I wanted to play, I wanted to love you I'm only this far And only tomorrow leads my way I'm coming waltzing back and Moving into your head Please, I wouldn't pass the by Oh, I wouldn't take more than I need What sort of man throws fire? I will bring water Why won't you ever be glad It melts into wonder Well I came in praying for what you were Why won't you run into the rain and play And let the tears splash all over you
