See the fire burn
Burnin' up high
The smoke swells the sky
The wood smells so fine
The pine and the rye
The look in your eyes
Oh ahooo...
You're always saying there's ten reasons to cry
When your wings and they are aching to fly
Lovers walking - they are making their minds
It's about time we started living our lives
Well...
The fire's talking to me
Asking me what do you see
Saying the life that you live
Has got no fire to give
See the fire burn
Burnin' up high
The fire of our lives
Wasting our time
Waiting in line
Stuck in our minds
Oh...ahoo
You're always saying it's time to lay down and die
When your life and it is passing you by
Lovers walkin' - they are making their minds
Never knowin' what your fate can be like
Well...
The fire's talking to me
Asking me what do you see
Saying the life that you live
Has got no fire to give
Yeah....yeah

Roses

This girl I love
I love her deeper than looks
I love her more than paperback books and records spinning in the basement
This woman I love
I love her more than the streets where I grew up
I ove her more than she'll ever let me say
But that's okay
Love like the sky loves the Earth
That's how I love you
This road we walk
Leaves us begging for answers
Leaves us begging for meaningless words and second chances
When we talk
And this shadow is dark
In this crowded city scene
In this corporate hungover world
You guide me through the seams
Love like the sky loves the Earth
That's how I love you
A rose by any other name should sound as sweet
To give all of its love and ask of nothing of me

Nameless Streets

Turn off the radio
Can't hear it anymore
The drowning guitars in the static shores
Turn off in my mind
It's wasting all my time
And learn to forget all my past crimes
Goodbye! These nameless streets are nothing to me
I won't be held down
Goodbye! I won't walk or fall no more in fact
I will learn to fly above it all
My mirror stares at me
No matter what I see
There's no use running from what is meant to be
So turn off in my eyes
Might as well be blind
And learn to forget all my past crimes
Goodbye! These nameless streets are nothing to me
I won't be held down
Goodbye! I won't walk or fall no more in fact
I will learn to fly above it all

Neither Do I

So I was watchin' the cars that are passin' by
And the planes are flying in the sky
Looks like I've been living in
When did things start giving in?
Nothing wants to change - and neither do I
So I was watchin' the trees change color
And the fish swim circles in the water
Winter will be coming soon
I can see it by the moon
Nothing wants to change - and neither do I
And she says I don't want to go
A place I've never known before
And leave all that I can call home
Well neither do I, you're still on my mind
I knew growing rough would be tough
But what could I expect from love
And the knots they had me all tied up
And I'm still stuck
Nothing wants to change, and neither do I
And it doesn't matter much
If we fall out of touch
It's the only thing that I could care about
Nothing wants to change, and neither do I
And she says I don't want to go
A place I've never known before
And leave all that I can call home
Well neither do I, you're still on my mind
Baby, cry...

When I Get Out
04:29

I realize that it's a waste of my life
To sit around and write a bootless rhyme
For a man, said a man, so ripe in his prime
I'm confined between my fortress walls
And the eagles circle - clenching their claws
Mother nature sure doesn't follow the laws at all
When I get out
See the light at my door
Send me up high
Just to end up below
So when I get out...
I drove my car along the interstate
And I pushed the engine till' I heard her break
Never got it up to 88 after all..
In the distance - desert burns to sky
Never knew how hard it could get to cry
Guess my feelings are all runnin' dry on me
When I get out
See the light at my door
Send me up high
Just to end up below
So when I get out...
