My god is better than yours And the walls of my house Are so thick I hear nothing at all I followed you out in the storm But it carried you off And I burned every picture of yours Was that not enough? My gun is bigger than yours So let's arm the masses And see what the bastards do then Walking tall once set us apart Now we're down on all fours Do you cry my name in the dark Like I do yours? These storms are getting stronger now Trusses all bend and sway Lightning hits, the power goes out in the fray As the waves crash high And the shoreline disappears I will scream to the sky "Hey, people live here!" My dreams are not unlike yours They long for the safety And break like a glass chandelier But there's laughter and oh there is love Just past the edge of our fears And there's chaos when push comes to shove But it's music to my ears May you be in heaven before the devil knows you're dead May these winds be always at your back 'Cause when we're all just ghosts And the madness overtakes us We will look at the ashes And say, "people lived here" From the penthouse to the holy martyr Sea to shining sea From the coffins full of kindergarteners Is this what you call free? From the hate that drips from all your crosses Are your hands so clean? There's a wildfire and it's spreading far From sea to shining sea When we're all just ghosts And the madness overtakes us I will scream to the sky Yeah, I'll scream to the sky Yeah, I'll scream to the sky "Hey, people live here!"

A wretch undone I was Lord I was lost in what I was Then your love came and Found me Wandering hopelessly around There was something inside Me Beyond me, reaching out. All I want is to know your love Unchanging, never failing, endless Love All I want is to feel your touch Renew my heart 'til it looks like yours. What Grace we've found, that saves the lost No longer slaves to what you left at the cross You rivaled the darkness Inside us with love beyond compare With you we're victorious The war's won To you our hearts sing. All we want is to know your love Unchanging, never failing, endless Love All we want is to feel your touch Renew our hearts 'til it looks like yours All we want is to know your love Unchanging, never failing, endless Love All we want is to feel your touch Reach in our hearts 'til it looks like yours. Our fears are gone Our faith made strong Right Here in your presence We want more presence Where love abound And hope is found We need your presence We want more presence Our fears are gone Our faith made strong Right Here in your presence We want more presence Where love abounds And hope is found We need your presence And it's right here now

Baby put a bullet in me Lord knows I'm no good I'm a man with good intentions Just misunderstood Every morning when you wake up Turn o'er to my side Tell me just what do you see when you look into my eyes Don't give up on me now I'll still get better Don't throw in the towel Don't give up on me yet I'm still growing into your man Yes, I am I need you to stay with me Save me from this deep despair, oh Without you I cannot breathe Where am I if you're not there? Won't live here without you I can't go through the pain Won't live here without you Can't go through that again I know there ain't two ways about it You know that you should never doubt it People make mistakes Ascend with me up in the heaven And leave behind this Armageddon I'll take you to a better place Yes, I know sometimes I hurt you Sometimes you hurt me too Makes me go mad Every time you hear this music Take that pain and use it Use it for you Yes, I know sometimes I hurt you Sometimes you hurt me too Make me go mad Every time you hear this music Take that pain and use it Use it for you

I hear you walking Across the floor I think that I'm dreaming Till I hear shut the door I wake up crying Calling your name Nothing's changed here without you I start every day the same Same old sun comes up to shine On this old bed at the same old time I tell myself the same old lies I got you off my mind I feel your body Lying next to mine I reach out in the darkness But your not there for me to find There's only sorrow Followed by pain Nothing's changed here without you I start every day the same I see your sweet lips Softly kiss me goodbye I taste the salt of my teardrops As they fall down from my eyes I take a deep breath But it's only in vain Nothing's changed here without you I start every day the same Yeah, nothing's changed here without you I start every day the same

The bullet went into him His skin did part in two Skin that women had touched The bullet passed on through The bullet went into him It went its merry way Like an old grey dog On a fox's trail The bullet went into him His stomach filled with food Many fine meals he tasted there But the bullet passed on through The bullet went into him It went its merry way Like an old grey dog On a fox's trail The bullet went into him Through his heart with thoughts of you Where your kisses he inhaled The lies and the truth The bullet went into him Traveled up into his head Through thoughts of love and hate The living and the dead The bullet went into him It went its merry way Like an old grey dog On a fox's trail

There are no angels left in America anymore They left after the Second World War heading west Stopping briefly in Japan during the 60's Then in Tianamen Square during the last decade They kept heading west to who knows where What are they after? What are they looking for? A messiah who never comes? A virgin birth? A perfect drug? A sign, any kind of sign? Anything that looks slightly out of the ordinary Flying over fields and factories Momma's going off her head Daddy's bringing home the bacon Open up the pearly gates Fruit of salty lubrication Tangled up in arms and legs I can barely touch the bottom Now I'm working up a sweat! I'm ready now I'm ready now I can barely touch my own self How could I touch someone else? I am just an advertisement For a version of myself Like molecules in constant motion Like a million nervous tics I am quivering in anticipation Like the sunlight on their wings I'm ready now (don't look back) I'm ready now (I'm ready for this) I'm ready now The sensuous world - the smell of the sea The sweat off their wings - the fruit from the trees The angel inside - who will meet me tonight On wings of desire - I come back alive I'm ready I'm ready (I put the dogs outside) I'm ready I'm ready (to take that ride) I'm ready now I'm ready now (to take that wine) I'm ready now but where are you?

Follow my voice I am right here Beyond this light Beyond all fear The clouds are passing by on Bye, my darling Your eyes are breeding love Sending in the light I consciously died I've seen dew on a rose I've seen a double rainbow I got a complicated soul To me, this city's hell But I know you call it home That was made for the green Made to belong The clouds are passing by on Bye, my darling Your eyes are breeding love Sending in the light They couldn't let it go No matter how hard has tried The clouds are passing by I've been called heartbreaker For doing justice to my own I, too, been a fault-finder But that life is broke How I love you- You're the one my heart chose And so I will be here And so I will be here Beyond this light Beyond all the fear Beyond this love Beyond all the fear The clouds are passing by on Bye, my dear Your eyes are breeding love Sending in the light

Back on tour Driving through southwestern towns I'd been in before Sun split ember, fields that span both ways forever When I first saw you The sky, it was such a natural blue Stars from a back porch They're talkin' but I don't say much anymore It's old news but if you're asking Been a long time since I've been moved But when I first saw you That feeling, it came over me too Natural blue Chicory burns grass at your knees Walk forward from your open wound Live in dreams, I remain forever Inside the colors you've shown to me When I first saw you The sky, it was such a natural blue The sky was such a natural blue Natural blue
