A Fine Day To Exit

Your own personal Jesus Someone to hear your prayers Someone who cares Your own personal jesus Someone to hear your prayers Someone who's there Feeling unknown And you're all alone Flesh and bone By the telephone Lift up the receiver I'll make you a believer Take second best Put me to the test Things on your chest You need to confess I will deliver You know I'm a forgiver Reach out and touch faith Reach out and touch faith Your own personal Jesus... Feeling unknown And you're all alone Flesh and bone By the telephone Lift up the receiver I'll make you a believer I will deliver You know I'm a forgiver Reach out and touch faith Your own personal jesus Reach out and touch faith

Are you goin' to Scarborough Fair?  Parsley, sage, rosemary, and thyme, Remember me to the one who lives there,  she once was a true love of mine. Tell her to make me a cambric shirt, Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme, Without no seam or needlework, She once was a true love of mine. Tell her to weave it in a sycamore wood lane, Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme, And gather it all with a basket of flowers, Then she'll be a true love of mine. Ask her to buy me an acre of land, Parsley, sage, rosemary, and thyme, Between salt water and the strands, Then she'll be a true love of mine. Tell her to reap it in a sickle of leather. Parsley, sage, rosemary, and thyme. And gather it all in a bunch of heather. Then she'll be a true love of mine. Are you going to Scarborough Fair?  Parsley, sage, rosemary, and thyme. Remember me to the one who lives there,  Then she'll be a true love of mine.

For too long now There were secrets in my mind For too long now There were things I should have said In the darkness I was stumbling for the door To find a reason To find the time,the place,the hour Waiting for the winter sun And the cold light of day The misty ghosts of childhood fears The pressure is building And I can't stay away I throw myself into the sea Release the wave Let it wash over me To face the fear I once believed The tears of the dragon For you and for me Where I was I had wings that couldn't fly Where I was I had tears I couldn't cry My emotions Frozen in an icy lake I couldn't feel them Until the ice began to break I have no power over this You know I'm afraid The walls I built are crumbling The water is moving I'm slipping away I throw myself into the sea Release the wave Let it wash over me To face the fear I once believed The tears of the dragon For you and for me Slowly I awake Slowly I rise...

When the world stops running and looks me in the eye and starts to answer all my questions why when God is patient and so am I I’ll be happy When life goes simply from a to b and the pearly white flags are flowing free hope not blood is the story that leads I’ll be happy When my teeth stop hurting and my bird stops hissing and my doubts go missing I’ll be free ooh, ooh I’ll be happy When my teeth stop hurting and my bird stops hissing and my doubts go missing I’ll be free ooh, ooh I’ll be happy When then is now when then is now when then is now when then is now When our children's tears are not black stains and our brothers and sisters don’t die in vain when our mothers are free to breathe again I’ll be happy When we breathe in love and not bad air when we call you friend anywhere when our politicians really start to care I’ll be happy When my teeth stop hurting and my bird stops hissing and my doubts go missing I’ll be free ooh, ooh, I’ll ...

So much for my happy ending Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh... Let's talk this over It's not like we're dead Was it something I did? Was it something You said? Don't leave me hanging In a city so dead Held up so high On such a breakable thread You were all the things I thought I knew And I thought we could be You were everything, everything that I wanted We were meant to be, supposed to be, but we lost it And all of the memories, so close to me, just fade away All this time you were pretending So much for my happy ending Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh... You've got your dumb friends I know what they say They tell you I'm difficult But so are they But they don't know me Do they even know you? All the things you hide from me All the shit that you do You were all the things I thought I knew And I thought we could be It's nice to know that you were there Thanks for acting like you cared And making me feel like I was the only one It's nic...

He lost his mind today He left it out back on the highway On "65" She loved him yesterday Yesterday's over I said okay That's all right Time moves on That's the way We live an hope to see the next day That's all right Sometimes these things they are so easy Sometimes these things they are so cold Sometimes these things just seem to rip you right in two Oh no man don't let 'em get ta you She loved him yesterday He laid her sister She said O.K. An that's all right Buried her things today Way back out deep Behind the driveway And that's all right Sometimes these women are so easy Sometimes these women are so cold Sometimes these women seem to rip you right in two Only if you let 'em get to you Ya get out on your own And you take all that you own And you forget about your home And then you're just fuckin' gone There's no logic here today Do as you got to, go your own way I said that's ri...

Into the rain, when metal turns to rust I can see the shadows fallin' like pictures of the past. And day after day my heart turns to stone. Though I'm only 20 years old my life's already gone And when the nightmare hasn't gone I need to see a smile. You've got to understand sometimes the strength can't make the man so why, you never cared for me don't cry I can't escape from those sweet lies,  They're taking control of me my soul and spirit die And into the night I need a helping hand Broken dreams and fears are destroying me and lead me straight to the end And everyday it breaks my heart again But I want it but I need it And then it turned to pain And when the nightmare hasn't gone I need to see a smile. You've got to understand sometimes the strength can't make the man so why, you never cared for me don't cry I can't escape from those sweet lies,  They're taking control of me my soul and spiri...
