Junkies - Soulo

Is it getting better Or do you feel the same Will it make it easier on you now You've got someone to blame You say One love One life When it's one need In the night One love We get to share it It leaves you, baby, if You don't care for it Did I disappoint you Or leave a bad taste in your mouth You act like you never had love And you want me to go without Well it's too late Tonight To drag the past out into the light We're one, but we're Not the same We get to carry each other Carry each other, one Have you come here for forgiveness? Have you come to raise the dead? Have you come here to play Jesus To the lepers in your head? Did I ask too much More than a lot You gave me nothing now it's all I've got We're one but we're Not the same Well we hurt each other Then we do it again You say Love is a temple Love a higher law Love is a temple Love, the higher law You ask me to enter But then you make me crawl And I can't be holding on To what you've got When all you've got is hurt One love One blood One life you've got to do what you should One life With each other Sisters, brothers One life But we're not the same You get to carry each other Carry each other, one One One One One One One One One One One One

Wake up mama, there's a white boat coming down the river With a big red beacon and a flag and a man on the rail I think you'd better call John 'cause it don't look like they're here to deliver the mail And it's less than a mile away I hope they didn't come to stay It's got numbers on the side and a gun And it's making big waves Daddy's gone, my brother's out hunting in the mountains Big John's been drinking since the river took Emmy Lou So the powers that be left me here to do all the thinking And I just turned 22 I was wondering what to do The closer they came The more those feelings grew Daddy's rifle in my arms felt reassuring He told me, "Red means run, son Numbers add up to nothing" But when that first shot hit the dock, I saw it coming Raised the rifle to my eye Never stopped to wonder why Then I saw black and my face flashed in the sky Shelter me from the powder and the finger Cover me in the thought that pulled the trigger Just think of me as one you never figured To fade away so young With so much left undone Remember me too, my love I know I'll miss her

I woke up this morning, didn't know who I was I looked at the room, I didn't know where I was Or if I ever was I woke up this morning I looked to the skies, they offered reprieve I look to the moon and find you sitting In the right hand seat Stars in your eyes as I study the skies We slowly glide above the Quebec countryside Moon-splashed and frozen, the river our guide And now I hear you exhale a low soft sigh And this is what I lost today This is what I lost This is what I lost today This is what I lost I woke up this morning, I didn't know what to do I looked at the room and didn't know what to do His hands hit the keys, and we are brought to our knees The explosion of sound and our minds are scattered 'round The maestro pounds, and my spine takes hold of me Shakes me around, and that's when I break free And this is what I lost today This is what I lost You ask me how I am What am I supposed to say? When this is what I lost I woke up this morning, didn't know who I was I looked at the room, didn't know where I was If they come around asking, please, tell them in passing This is what I lost If they come around asking, please, tell them in passing This is what I lost This is what I lost I woke up this morning
