Take You Down

Where has that fever gone ?
That sickness used to come on.
And what's the use pretending ?
Our dream of love's undone.

The earth waits to take me down.
Just like a rotten apple tree.
And when she takes me down.
She will have gotten rid of me.

That prescription is so old.
Better find another pharmacy.
And the city's growing cold.
I remember when you slept right next to me.

Sleep waits to take you down.
Just like when you were five years old.
She waits to give you dreams
She waits to give you wings and eyes of gold.

Solo

The earth waits to take you down
Just like a rotten apple tree
She waits to take you down
She waits to set you free

She waits to set you free
She waits to set you free
She waits to set you free
She waits to set you free ...

On and On

See the day about to
Open her eye.
See the sun about to rise.
Seems like the time is just
passing us by
We don't even pay no mind
pay no mind

Now the nightime starts to stumble (and tumble)
Now the moon has got to rise
Seems just like yesterday
we were on the other side
Now the nightime's my surprise

There's only one thing that's for certain
there's only one thing
that's for sure
there's only one way
you can stay
in the world
Off or on
and it's on
and it's on.

Looks like it's starting over again (again)
Looks like another time around
Seems like something has begun to begin
Are you out
or are you in ?

Are you in, baby ?
Are you in yet, baby ?
are you in yet, baby ?

Are you in ?

There's only one thing that's for certain
there's only one thing that's for sure
there's only one way
you can stay
in the world
Off or on
and it's on
and it's on.

SOLO

repeat Chorus

Lend Me Your Love

Take
Take away
Every thing that cannot stay
Like
Like the day
or the night
How it went
away

And your love's impermanent
Can't remember what you said
Or what you said it meant
What you gave and what you lent

The shape
of things to come -
They wait around to be undone
So why ?
why wait for one ?
when another one
is gonna come
around

And your grip is tenuous
And your heart is breaking
Love can be so generous
To those who do the taking

break

And your love's a currency
That I beg to borrow
If you give it all to me
I'll give it back tomorrow

I'll give it back tomorow
I'll give it back tomorow
I'll give it back tomorow ...

Day Gone

Stow way – sailing ship bound for
Norway – frozen lips and the
silence – keeps her secrets.

No way - to keep from thinking the
whole day – about sinking
the loose lips – what they do to ships

Timing – put you here
now you're finding the atmosphere
is frightening – and enlightening

Hiding - hands in pockets
like faces - safe in lockets
and the sea shines – like moonshine

Day gone - vagabond
life's own paragon
What's your metaphor ?
What's that

sweater for, are you going somewhere -
sweater for, are you going somewhere -
sweater for, are you going somewhere
cold ?

Finally - see the land and the
Flying Dutchman hands you
the spyglass – see the highlands

Took you – all this time now you
Look to the clandestine for the
reason – for the treason

Day gone - vagabond
life's own paragon
What's your metaphor ?
What's that

sweater for, are you going somewhere -
sweater for, are you going somewhere -
sweater for, are you going somewhere
cold ?

All The Rage

Gimme a cup of coffee
I'm gonna stay awake all night.
You're never gonna stop me
You're never going to turn out the light.

Camouflagued in the closet
Hanging in there with the rest of the coats
Waiting for your deposit
Waiting to get my hands on your throat.

All the rage 2X

This is my best behaviour
This is me wearing my heart on my sleeve.
i'm gonna be my own saviour
Just gimme something good to believe.

Whatcha gonna do ?
Well they say it's true
But you think they lie.
One day you're gonna die
but you'd rather be alive.

You didn't even see me
Invisible there, in the absence of light
I made it much too easy
I'm not impressed with your sense of sight.

What can you do ?
That you haven't tried.
They say it's true
You know you're gonna die
but you'd rather be alive ...

All the rage 4X
