I shot the thought
Through the heart
I carved the turkey
From the tree
I painted the face
With a frown
I stabbed the poison
From underneath
I wrench the unicorn
With my teeth
Rainbow are made to fly
And flies are made to die
Die are rolled to take a chance
And chance controls our daily dance
Dances preceed our daily death
And death is a grinning girl
Take the steam from my sails
And watch the rainbow die
Colored in deathly Pales
Soon, too soon, I will return
And with me comes a yesterday
Ashes fill a gallows urn
For you and I will never learn.

I'm done with this shit
I'm tired of it all
The confusion, pain and all
I put that elephant
Back in its cage
I wrangled that bastard
Home again
No more rampage
No more tears
Quiet serenity
From all my fears
I give up on Eros
I give up on romance
Philos, my brother
Is my only chance
So shut the fuck up
With what I should do
Leave me the fuck alone
With directions for life
I shut that bastard away
Away from the strife
I'm turning off the lights
From my inner most heart
Empty and cold it shall be
Empty save for the spiders
Spiders of memories just for me
Bless you for who you are
Not what I thought you could be
Forever an angel
A special bird on fire
God bless you and keep you
And me,
I'm done

I got an achin in my chest
Won't gimme no fuckin rest
I got an achin in my chest
Don't know how ta be tha best
I got an achin in my chest
Please baby please gimme the rest

Saw you on that beach
Dressed in sunshine n yellow
Saw you at the bar
Cryin ur eyes out
Saw you at the fair
Wishing some else was there

I got an achin in my chest
Won't gimme no fuckin rest
I got an achin in my chest
Don't know how ta be tha best
I got an achin in my chest
Please baby please gimme the rest

I came swimming through ur heart
I came strollin through ur pain
I came dancing for ur smile
Ain't never gonna be the same

I got an achin in my chest
Won't gimme no fuckin rest
I got an achin in my chest
Don't know how ta be tha best
I got an achin in my chest
Please baby please gimme the rest

I thought I loved me a woman
I thought I could make her smile
You caught glimpse of my plan
You caught a train outta town

I got an achin in my chest
Won't gimme no fuckin rest
I got an achin in my chest
Don't know how ta be tha best
I got an achin in my chest
Please baby please gimme the rest

I got an achin in my chest
Won't gimme no fuckin rest
I got an achin in my chest
Don't know how ta be tha best
I got an achin in my chest
Please baby please gimme the rest

I wanna go to sleep
And dream no more
I want some peace
From my aching heart
Dreams that are a wonder
Only deepen the anguish
Upon awakening
I want to go to sleep
And dream
No more

A man obsessed
Is a man possessed
A man who confesses
Has much to profess
I stepped out
Poured my heart out
I let loose
Let slip the noose
And now I confess
I'm a man possessed
But hoping someday...
To be a man who is blessed.

I dreamt of her ALL night
I smelled her hair
And held her hand
We danced and laughed
I returned her embrace
And we shared a moment
I dreamt of HER all night

I dreamt of her last night
Can't always get want you want
Holding her would be a dream
Can't have what is not yours
I long to reach out
Can't be where you don't belong
I want to dream again
Can't go where your not welcome
