There was a time When the mountains kept their place They stood in line And they waited back the gaze No one could see No terrain now is a rock No feet could find Near the heart of old road bluff The hills are worn The place about growing pains The earths are closed The mountains had their way The kids have grown And they watched it from above Now I'm alone And I see no way to run We float on the breeze We are held to a ransom We are bones on the riffs Waiting for the waves, the waves We float on the breeze We are held to a ransom We are bones on the riffs Waiting for the waves, the waves We float... We are bones We float on the breeze We are held to a ransom We are bones on the riffs Waiting for the waves, the waves...

Only save, Try to find another way, I'm taking what I gave to you again. Some new day I could understand your face, You could even hold my hand if you would like to. It came up unexpected, I had to follow through And it's hard when you were working like you do. It was easy when you were younger, You can put it back together, It was there if you ever wanted it But you closed the door and said goodbye for good. So this is a mistake, Try to find a better way, You were never fond of anything I said. Can we begin again? Save it for another friend, I was happy in my life I won't pretend, Every time you were expecting to reach out and forgive this, I was hardened by the look upon your face, It was easy when you were younger, You can put it back together, It was there if you ever wanted it, But you closed the door and said goodbye for good, For good

There's a place around my heart that you wish for When you pretend its never there What are you living for? Come back and see me some time, she said Thinking he'd rather be dead. But eventually I might give her a ring instead Would you talk to me? Would you talk to me? I want everything to be so clean So clean When you're alone, You'll ask yourself things I bet you were not Even thinking all these things One time its clear to you All the things you know He even reminds me of the kid we used to know Would you talk to me? Would you talk to me? I want everything to be so clean. So clean. There's a place around my heart That you hope for When you pretend its never there What do you answer for? Come back and see me sometime, she said. Thinking he'd be dead. But eventually, I might give her a book instead Would you talk to me? Would you talk to me? I want everything to be so clean. So clean. Would you talk to me? Would you talk to me? Would you talk to me? Would you talk to me? I want everything to be so clean. So clean.

I know a man who lives under his covers Uh uh uh uh uh uh Lost his mind from the TV Now he's playing God And somebody told him that he was no good at Uh uh uh uh uh uh He's talking out of the left side of his mouth And he won't follow These lines he's drawn for him And he don't want to try Seeing is believing Lord knows what he sees here every night Three little boys dress up in the morning Uh uh uh uh uh uh Come back home from the school yard Talkin' bout Love But on this occasion the boys feel the same Uh uh uh uh uh uh Something's holding them back there I bet it was their mom And they won't follow These lines he's drawn for them Cause they don't want to try Seeing is believing Lord knows what they see here every night And we both know That people change When truth's not part of their lives I've seen the love in their eyes Don't say goodbye Goodbye I know a man who wakes up in the evening Uh uh uh uh uh uh Lost his mind from the TV Now he's blaming God And somebody told him that he's good for nothing Uh uh uh uh uh uh Now he screen prints American T-shirts Through the night And he won't follow These lines they've drawn for him And he don't want to try Seeing is believing Lord knows what he sees here Every night

When I met you I didn't know what to do I was tired, I was hungry, I fight Now I'm away I write home everyday and I see you on the TV at night You can see that life's for us to talk about You can leave whenever you want out Whoa You don't relate to me, no girl You don't respect me, no girl No girl, oh yeah When I met you I didn't know what to do But I noticed that I didn't really feel Now you're away You write home everyday I don't beg, I don't borrow, I steal You don't think that life's for us to talk about You can leave whenever you want out You want out Well, you don't relate to me, no girl You don't respect me, no girl (You can leave when ever you want out) And you don't relate to me, no girl And you don't respect me, no girl (You can leave whenever you want out) No you don't relate to me, no girl And you don't respect me, no girl No girl, yeah
