The only one
I am the only one that thinks I'm going crazy
I don't know what to do
I am the only son of a pastor I know
who does the things I do
but if it was you I don't think that it would matter
oh and if it was true then I just wouldn't matter
I was amazed at the colour and shapes you drew
a paper cut for two
I am the only son of a bastard I know
that knows the guy too
because it was you I called it a different story
but if I was you I'd make this a simpler story
I bet you did what you did when you did it
to do it again by the time you were done with it
I bet you did what you did when you did
just to tell every friend that you have that the Lord did it
I finally knew that I simply couldn't matter
you finally knew that you simply couldn't matter
I guess that it's true you never know
the passive power of the truth so cut me loose
if I could write another phrase
we might be better off this way
but there's no use
no there's no use
Shake it out
Shake it out, shake it out
God, I need another round, another round, another round,
another I could feel it now.
I felt the lord in my father's house.
Well, I could see, I could see
standing we were seventeen make it clean
Are you the living ghost of what i need?
are you giving me the best of me.
we, will see.
cuz I'm done being done with the funerals at least for now
are you tired of being alone, are you tired of being alone?
Shake it out, shake it out.
Tie it up another round another
wasn't really what i wanted so we brought it out.
over the shore to my neighbors house.
I could see i could see
god i never should have seen, so complete
I am the living ghost of what you need
I am everything eternally, god just speak.
cuz I'm done being done with the funerals at least for now
are you tired of being alone, are you tired of being alone?
just be clean
oh god, you gotta shake it out, shake it out.
you gotta take it out, take it down
i gotta jump around, i needed that more then i ever have.
oh god you gotta shake it out, shake it out.
you gotta break it down, break it out
you gotta jump around, i feel it now more then i ever have.
I felt the world begin
to peel off all my skin
and i felt the weight within
reveal the bigger mess
that you can't fix
I felt I felt good
repeat into my home
don't fight don't ever go
I swear you'll never know
you'll never know
oh god you gotta shake it out, shake it out.
you gotta break it down, break it out
I’ve got friends
Dirty on the ground is what I see
I got another one to tell you
And another one to make you believe
Pity in the grass, tried to be
The one you needed when I told you
That you wanted something bigger than me
I've got friends in all the right places
I know what they want
And I know they don't want me to stay
I said that I've got friends in all the right places
I know what they want
And I know they don't want me to stay
'Cause you are not alive
But when I need you, I need it quickly
In case you never know
I can't play where I'm not supposed to
Anyway, anyway, anyway, anyway, anyway
Dirty on the ground is what I see
I need another reason why
I need another reason, tell me to breathe
The dirtier the sound, the best I breathe
I tried to do it all for you
It didn't do anything for me
'Cause I've got friends in all the right places
I know what they want
And I know they don't want me to stay
I got friends in all the right places
I know what they want
And I know they don't want me to stay
And you and I will find
That when I need you, I need it quickly
In fact, you'll never know
'Cause I've got friends in all the right places
I know what they want
And I know they don't want me to stay
I said that I've got friends in all the right places
I know what they want
And I know they don't want me to stay
He said that I've got friends in all the right places
I know what they want
And I know they don't want me to stay, to stay
For I've got friends in all the right places
I know what they want
And I know they don't want me to stay, to stay
In my teeth
I felt a black man in my teeth, what a way
Jesus is coming, he acts my age, and he always looks the same
I said ??a good seed was on your break?? wasn't a mistake anyway
Jesus is coming better act our age
And clean everything
And make a seem
Like you never really needed it anyway,
Yep you never really needed it anyways, okay, okay
John spoke a theory straight in to my brain
God damn did you mean to do that to me
Well Jesus don't come round
Unless we pray for 500 days
I don't know what you want anymore
No, I don't know what you want anymore
So we can see
That you never really needed it anyway
No you never really needed it anyway
So we can see
That the bottom going to bury us anyway
So I am doing what I gotta to stay awake
Yeah I am doing what I gotta to stay awake, okay
What happens when I don't know what happens
What happens when I don't know what happens
Just stop and go and stop and go till you can't go run any more
Just stop and go and stop and go till you can't go
Make it seem
Like we never really needed it anyway
Yeah we never really needed it anyway
So we can see
That the bottom gonna bury us anyway
Yeah your doing you gotta to stay awake
Yeah I am doing what I gotta to stay awake okay
One hundred dollars
Several Women's magazines
Stacked up on top of a picture of me
When I tried to call
No one answered
It's not even that I'm all angry
Just wanna know why you would do this thing
You said, theres an understanding
I offer you a small dog in the kitchen
I just wanted you to feel at home
And that's why I'm fine
I am fine, I am fine, I am fine
I just need 100 dollars
And I am fine, I am fine, I am completely fine
I just need 100 dollars
From you
And you and you
And you and you
My friend marcus
My friend Marcus, he sleeps in my basement
And his father touched more than spirit
Now he can hardly sleep, sleep
I don't give a good shit if your lonesome
I think that you should go home son
Find your father and meaning
Now I can see
You mean everything to nothing
Now I believe
You mean everything
Now I can see
You mean everything to nothing
Now I believe
You mean everything
My friend Marcus, he works on a train set
And I still can't move on my broke track
He's helping me find my meaning
Eventually and hopefully we'll see
And now I can see
I mean everything to nothing
Now I believe
I mean everything
Its funny how many don't know
How many dont have a home
It's funny how many don't know
How many dont have homes
oooooh
Tony the tiger
I was alone
So I set a fire and I wasted all on you
You were a sea I cannot remember
And I knew it would be over soon
If I was a tree I know you couldn't take it
On a Sunday afternoon
And we were a bridge on top of bodied water
With something left inside you
What is the price to be a bargain beggar
So lonely but always free
What did you mean when you said it's destructive
And you sank your self into me
I know you think you know
But you probably don't
I know you think you know
But you probably don't know
Do you think that you would actually do it
Do you think that you would actually do it
And you slept the entire drive home
It was you my sister and I
And you slept the entire drive home
It was you my sister and I
Do you think that you would actually do it
Do you think that you would actually do it
Do you think that you would actually do it
Do you think that you would actually do it
Everything to nothing
Definitely not the things that i'm seeing
Did I think I see so instantly?
I found a note in my grandfather's coat
When I read it out loud I got cold
It said i'm not complaining
Yeah I was just saying
I'm a man, I'm a lost one you see
Come down with me to a place we'll get clean and we'll meet with them eventually
You mean everything
I don't know much
But a crutch is a crutch
If it's holding you from moving on
I don't know what to do
Not anymore, not anymore
I don't know what to do
Not anymore, not anymore
And you, well you mean everything
You mean everything to nothing
You mean everything to nobody, me
You mean everything to nothing
You mean everything to nobody but me
The river
I fought the Spirit with a sword in my side
Cheat...What a way out.
Crack my rib, wait to die,
I think I know you the best when I sleep
I think I know everything
Me and my brothers, we have tongues sharp as knives
I found a way out, make a noise, close your eyes
I think I talk to you best when I sing
I sing about almost everything
Oh God I need it
So let me sing agian.
Take me to the river
And let me see again
Oh my God
Let me see again
Oh my God
Let me see again
Let me see again
Grace taught a debtor
Daily I'm starined to be
God how I feel it
Fetter pride to Your feet
I'm going to leave You the first chance I get
I'm going to leave You the first chance I get
I'm going to leave You the first chance I get
I'm going to leave You the first chance I get
Oh God I need it
Well I was wrong again
Take me to the river
And make me clean again
Oh my God
Make me clean again
Oh my God
Let me see again. |
