Who Will Save Your Soul



People living their lives for you on TV 

They say they're better than you and you agree 

This is home, my calls from behind those calls 

Come here boy, there ain't nothing for free 

Another doctor's bill, another lawyer's bill, another cute cheap thrill 

You know you love him if you put him in your will but 



Who will save your soul when it comes to the flowers now 

Who will save your soul after all the lies that you told, boy 

Who will save your soul if you won't save your own? 



We try to hustle them, try to bustle them, try to cuss them 

The cops want someone to bust down on Orleans Avenue 

Another day, another dollar, another war, another tower 

Went up to where the homeless had their homes 

So we pray to as many different gods are there are flowers 

But we call religion our friend 

We're so worried about saving our souls 

Afraid that God will take His toll that we forget to begin but 



Who will save your soul when it comes to the flowers now 

Who will save your soul after all the lies that you told, boy 

Who will save your soul if you won't save your own? 



Some are walking, some are talking, some are stalking their kill 

You got social security, but that don't pay your bills 

There are addictions to feed and there are mouths to pay 

So you bargain with the Devil, say you're o.k. for today 

You say that you love them, take their money and run 

Say, it's been swell, sweetheart, but it was just one of those things 

Those flings, those strings you've got to cut 

So get out on the streets, girls, and bust your butts 



Who will save your soul when it comes to the flowers now 

Who will save your soul after all the lies that you told, boy 

Who will save your soul if you won't save your own? 


Pieces Of You



She's an ugly girl, does it make you want to kill her? 

She's an ugly girl, do you want to kick in her face? 

She's an ugly girl, she doesn't pose a threat 

She's an ugly girl, does that make you feel safe? 

Ugly girl, ugly girl, do you hate her cause she's pieces of you? 



She's a pretty girl, does she make you think nasty thoughts? 

She's a pretty girl, do you want to tie her down? 

She's a pretty girl, do you call her a bitch? 

She's a pretty girl, did she sleep with your whole town? 

Pretty girl, pretty girl, do you hate her cause she's pieces of you? 



You say he's a faggot, does it make you want to hurt him? 

You say he's a faggot, do you want to kick in his brain? 

You say he's a faggot, does he make you sick to your stomach? 

You say he's a faggot, are you afraid you're just the same? 

Faggot, faggot, do you hate him cause he's pieces of you? 



You say he's a Jew, does it mean that he's tight? 

You say he's a Jew, do you want to hurt his kids tonight? 

You say he's a Jew, he'll never wear that funny hat again 

You say he's a Jew as though being born were a sin 

Oh Jew, oh Jew, do you hate him cause he's pieces of you? 



Do you hate him cause he's pieces of you? 


Little Sister



Hey little sister, I heard you went to Mr. So and So 

Knock, knock, knocking on his door again last night 

Said you needed it bad, you know that ain't right 

Cause you've come to me crying, trying to stop 

You said it hurts so bad but please don't let you go back for more 

My little sister is a Zombie in a body with no soul 

A role she has learned to play in a world today where nothing else matters 

But it matters, we gotta start feeding our souls 

not our addictions or afflictions of pain 

To avoid the same questions we must ask ourselves to get any answers 

We gotta start feeding, our souls have been lost to the millions with lots 

Who feed on addiction selling pills and what's hot 

And I wish I could save her from all their delusions, all the confusion 

Of a nation that starves for salvation but clothing is the closest approximation 

To God and He only knows that drugs are all we know of love 



Every day we starve while we eat white bread 

and beer instead of a handshake or hug 

We spill the pills and sweep them under the rug 

My little sister is a Zombie in a body with no soul 

A role she has learned to play in a world today where nothing else matters 

But it matters, we gotta start feeding our souls 



Hey little sister I heard you went to Mr. So and So 

Knock, knock, knockin' on his door again last night 

Said you needed more 


Foolish Games



You took your coat off and stood in the rain 

You were always crazy like that 

I watched from my window 

Always felt I was outside looking in on you 

You were always the mysterious one with dark eyes and careless hair 

You were fashionably sensitive, but too cool to care 

Then you stood in my doorway, with nothing to say 

Besides some comment on the weather 

Well in case you failed to notice, in case you failed to see 

This is my heart bleeding before you, this is me down on my knees 



These foolish games are tearing me apart 

Your thoughtless words are breaking my heart 

You're breaking my heart 



You were always brilliant in morning 

Smoking your cigarettes and talking over coffee 

You philosophies on art, Baroque moved you 

You loved Mozart and you'd speak of your loved ones 

As I clumsily strummed my guitar 

You'd teach me of honest things 

Things that were daring, things that were clean 

Things that knew what an honest dollar did mean 

So I hid my soiled hands behind my back 

Somewhere along the line I must've gone off track with you 

Excuse me, think I've mistaken you for somebody else 

Somebody who gave a damn, somebody more like myself 



These foolish games are tearing me apart 

You're tearing me, tearing me, tearing me apart 

Your thoughtless words are breaking my heart 

You're breaking my heart 



You took off your coat and stood in the rain 

You were always crazy like that 


Near You Always



Please don't say I love you, those words touch me much too deeply 

And they make my core tremble 

Don't think you realize the effect you have over me 

And please don't look at me like that, 

it just makes me want to make you near me always 

And please don't kiss me so sweet, 

it makes me crave a thousand kisses to follow 

And please don't touch me like that, 

it makes every other embrace seem pale and shallow 

And please don't come so close, 

it just makes me want to make you near me always 



Please don't send me flowers, they only whisper the sweet things you'd say 

Don't try to understand me, your hands already know too much anyway 

It just makes me want to make you near me always 



And when you look in my eyes, please know my heart is in your hands 

It's nothing that I understand, but when in your arms 

you have complete power over me 

So be gentle if you please 'cause 

your hands are in my hair, but my heart is in your teeth, baby 

And it makes me want to make you near me always 

Your hands are in my hair, but my heart is in your teeth, baby 

And it makes me want to make you near me always 



I want to be near you always 

I want to be near you always 

I want to be near you always 


Painters



Eighty years, an old lady now, sitting on the front porch 

Watching the clouds roll by they remind her of her lover, how he left her 

And of times long ago when she used color carelessly, painted his portrait 

A thousand times - or maybe just his smile - 

And she and her canvas would follow him wherever he would go 

'Cause they were painters, and they had painting themselves, a lovely world 



Oil streaked daisies covered the living room wall 

He put water colored roses in her hair 

He said, "Love, I love you, I want to give you 

the mountains, the sunshine, the sunset too" 

I just want to give you a world as beautiful as you are to me 

'Cause they were painters, and they had painting themselves, a lovely world 



So they sat down and made a drawing of their love, they made it an art to live by 

They painted every, passion every home, created every beautiful child 

In the winter they were weavers of warmth, 

in the summer they were carpenters of love 

They thought blue prints were too sad so they made them yellow 

'Cause they were painters, and they had painting themselves, a lovely world 



Until one day the rain fell as thick as #FFFFFF oil 

And in her heart she knew something was wrong 

She went running through the orchard screaming 

'No God, don't take him from me!' 

But by the time she got there, she feared he already had gone 

She got to where he lay, water colored roses in his hands for her 

She threw them down screaming, 'Damn you man, don't leave me 

With nothing left behind but these cold paintings, these cold portraits 

to remind me!' 



He said, 'Love I only leave, but only a little, try to understand 

I put my soul in this life we've created with these four hands 

Love, I leave, but only a little, this world holds me still 

My body may die now, but these paintings are real' 



So many seasons came and so many seasons went 

And many times she saw her love's face watering the flowers 

Talking to the trees and singing to his children 

And when the wind blew, she knew he was listening 

And how he seemed to laugh along, and

 how he seemed to hold her when she was crying 

'Cause they were painters, and they had painting themselves, a lovely world 



Eighty years, an old lady now, sitting on the front porch 

Watching the clouds roll by, they remind her of her lover, how he left her 

And of times long ago when she used color carelessly, painted his portrait 

A thousand times - or maybe just his smile - 

And she and her canvas would follow him wherever he would go 

Yes, she and her canvas still follow 



'Cause they were painters, and they had painting themselves, a lovely world 


Morning Song



Let the phone ring, let's go back to sleep 

Let the world spin outside our door, you're the only one that I wanna see 

Tell your boss you're sick, hurry, get back in I'm getting cold 

Get over here and warm my hands up, boy, it's you they love to hold 

And stop thinking about what your sister said 

Stop worrying about it, the cat's already been fed 

Come on darlin', let's go back to bed 



Put the phone machine on hold 

Leave the dishes in the sink 

Do not answer the door 

It's you that I adore, I'm gonna give you some more 



We'll sit on the front porch, the sun can warm my feet 

You can drink your coffee with sugar and cream, I'll drink my decaf herbal tea 

Pretend we're perfect strangers and that we never met 

My how you remind me of a man I used to sleep with, 

that's a face I'd never forget 

You can be Henry Miller and I'll be Anais Nin 

Except this time it'll be even better, we'll stay together in the end 

Come on darlin', let's go back to bed 



Put the phone machine on hold 

Leave the dishes in the sink 

Do not answer the door 

It's you that I adore, I'm gonna give you some more 



Let the phone ring, let go back to bed 


Adrian



Adrian came home again last summer 

Things just haven't been the same around here 

And people talk and people stare 

Oh, Adrian, come out and play 



An unfortunate accident in a canoe 

Doctor said, "I'm sorry, not much I can do" 

And the air was so still and his eyes, they did not blink 

Oh, Adrian, come out and play 



Little Mary Epperson liked him 

And she vowed always to watch after him 

But still he did not move and the doctor said "it's no use" 

Oh, Adrian, come out and play 



She sat by his side and watched the years fly by 

He looked so fragile, he looked so small 

She wondered why he was still alive at all 



Everyone in town had that "I'm so sorry look" 

They talked in a whispered hush, said "I'd turn the machines off" 

But still she sat by his side, she said, "life he won't be denied" 

Oh Adrian, come out and play 



Yellow flowers decorate his bedroom 

Sign above his door says Welcome Home 

But he just sits and stares 

He's awake but still not there 

Oh, Adrian, come out and play 



She sat by his side and watched the years fly by 

He looked so fragile, he looked so small 

She wondered why he was still alive at all 



And little Mary Apperson grew up lovely 

And she still comes to visit him on Sundays 

He's like an unused toy 

He's got big hands but the mind of a little boy 

Oh, Adrian, come out and play 



Adrian came home again last summer 

Things just haven't been the same around here 


I'm Sensitive



I was thinking that I might fly today 

Just to disprove all the things that you say 

It doesn't take a talent to be mean 

You words can crush things that are unseen 



So please be careful with me, I'm sensitive 

And I'd like to stay that way 



You always tell me that it's impossible 

To be respected, and be a girl 

Why's it gotta be so complicated 

Why you gotta tell me if I'm hated 



So please be careful with me, I'm sensitive 

And I'd like to stay that way 



I was thinking, that it might do some good 

If we robbed the cynics and took all their food 

That way what they believe will have taken place 

And we can give it everybody who have some faith 



So please be careful with me, I'm sensitive 

And I'd like to stay that way 



I have this theory, that if we told we're bad 

Then that's the only idea we'll ever have 

But maybe if we are surrounded in beauty 

Someday we will become what we see 

'Cause anyone can start a conflict 

It's harder yet to disregard it 

I'd rather see the world from another angle 

We are everyday angels 

Be careful with me 'cause I'd like to stay that way 


You Were Meant For Me



I hear the clock, it's six a.m. 

I feel so far away from where I've been 

I got my eggs, I got my pancakes too 

Got my maple syrup, everything but you 

I break the yolks and make a smiley face 

I kinda like it in my brand new place 

I wipe the spots off of the mirror, don't leave the keys in the door 

I never put wet towels on the floor anymore 'cause 



Dreams last so long, even after you're gone 

I know, that you love me and soon you will see 

You were meant for me and I was meant for you 



I Called my momma, she was out for a walk 

Consoled a cup of coffee but it didn't wanna talk 

So picked up a paper, it was more bad news 

More hearts being broken or people being used 

Put on my coat in the pouring rain 

I saw a movie it just wasn't the same 

'Cause it was happy and I was sad and 

It made me miss you oh so bad cause 



Dreams last so long, even after you're gone 

I know, that you love me and soon you will see 

You were meant for me and I was meant for you 



I go about my business, I'm doing fine 

Besides, what would I say if I had you on the line 

Same old story, not much to say 

Hearts are broken every day 



I brush my teeth and put the cap back on 

I know you hate it when I leave the light on 

I pick up a book and turn the sheets down and then 

Take a deep breath and a good look around 



Put on my pj's and hop into bed 

I'm half alive but I feel mostly dead 

I, I try and tell myself it'll be all right 

I just shouldn't think anymore tonight 'cause 



Dreams last so long, even after you're gone 

I know, that you love me and soon you will see 

You were meant for me and I was meant for you 

Yeah, you were meant for me and I was meant for you 


Don't



Don't walk too close, don't breathe so soft 

Don't talk so sweet, don't sing 

Don't lay oh so near 



Please, don't let me fall in love with you again 



Please let me forget all those sweet smiles 

All of the passion, all of the peace, the heat, the pain 

All those blue skies where your words were my freedom 



Please, don't let me fall in love with you again 



Too many times I've cared too much 

I stood on the edge and saw that you held my hand 

And knowing too well I couldn't hide from those eyes 



Please, don't let me fall in love with you again 

Don't let me fall in love with you again 


Daddy



My bones are tired, Daddy 

I don't get enough sleep, I don't eat as good as I should, Daddy 

What's that say about me? 



Sometimes I sleep past noon, Daddy 

Drink lots of #FFFFFF coffee and I smoke like a chimney 

Yes, I left the refrigerator door half open, Daddy 

What's that say about me? 



Sometimes I want to rip out your throat, Daddy 

For all those things you said that were mean 

Gonna make you just as vunerable as I was, Daddy 

What's that say about me? 



Sometimes I want to bash in your teeth, Daddy 

Gonna use your tongue as a stamp 

Gonna rip your heart out the way you did mine, Daddy 

Go ahead and psycho-analyse that 



'Cause I'm your creation, I'm your love, Daddy 

Grew up to be and do all those sick things you said I'd do 

Well last night I saw you sneak out your window with your white hood, Daddy 

What's that say about you? 

I'm sloppy, what's that say about you? 

I'm messy, what's that say about you? 



My bones are tired, Daddy. 


Angel Standing By



All through the night I'll be standing over you 

All through the night I'll be watching over you 

And through the bad dreams I'll be right there, baby 

Holding your hand, telling you everything's gonna be all right 

And when you cry I'll be right there 

Telling you you were never anything less than beautiful 

So don't you worry, I'm your Angel standing by 


Amen



You're mothers' child, but night lays you down 

Hair aflame, wild look in your eyes 

Naked belly to the ground 

A forest fire nibbles at your veins 

Crawls up your arm, runs away with your mind 

And burns dry thoughts like leaves 

Amen 



Eyes stare up, but something's in the way 

In the Bible only angels have wings 

And the rest must wait to be saved 

A dry tongue screams at the sky 

But the wind just breathes words in 

As a strange bird tries to fly 

Amen 



Pieces of us die everyday as though our flesh were hell 

Such injustice, as children we are told that from God we fell 

Where are my angels? 

Where's my golden one? 

Where's my hope now that my heros have gone? 

Some are being beaten, some are being born 

And some can't tell the difference anymore 

Amen 



Hallelujah 

Hallelujah
