And the times that we all hoped would last
Like a train they have gone by so fast

You can linger too long in your dreams

I want to know if love is wild
Babe I want to know if love is real

The written word is lie

With a full glass and an empty heart
I search for something to occupy my mind

Encumbered forever by desire and ambition
There's a hunger still unsatisfied
Our weary eyes still stray to the horizon
Though down this road we've been so many times

You can change your friends, your place in life
You can change your mind
We can change the things we say
And do anytime

I don't know if I could fly a plane
Well enough to tailspin out your name

Half of what I say is meaningless

My grip is surely slipping
I think I've lost my hold

There's no point in direction
We cannot even choose a side

Free at last, they took your life
They could not take your pride

We think we know what we're doin'
That don't mean a thing

I say what I mean but I don't mean what I say

No one in the world ever gets what they want and that is beautiful
Everybody dies frustrated and sad and that is beautiful

It's a matter of time
A matter of will

I could be a novelist
Tell secrets never heard
Pour my soul into each and every sentence
But I just can't find the words

In a world frozen over with over exposure

What good is pussy
When you can't afford to eat?

I can't get through the smoke
That's surrounding you
