Rooftops of Hollywood

On the rooftops of hollywood
the stars shine bright for miles
Above the garbage in the alley ways
reflecting off of bleach-whitened smiles
The gathering of energies
The spell, the sights and the sounds
On the rooftops of hollywood
the rain's pouring down
Where are you gonna run now?
There's a bounty on your head
The sheriff's right behind you
There's trouble around the bend
When you first come it's understood
She'll tempt you with all of her wiles
Fast curves and luxuries
The taste you won't forget once you've taken a bite
Think you're gonna steal her blind?
She'll reveal to you her darker side
She'll chew you up and spit you out
Boy you'd better hang on for the ride
Where are you gonna run now?
There's a bounty on your head
The sheriff's right behind you
There's trouble around the bend
You can keep running
but you won't escape it

The Pendulem swings up
The Pendulem swings down
the roller coaster ride spins round and round and round
One minute you'll hate it
Then the next its the greatest
When the train is riding high upon the town
Bridge:
we would find our our own way home
our own way home
Chorus:
These are the times
that try our souls
girl if we struggle, we can make it whole.
and when the stars say,
we're only human
Yeah, we'll make a difference,
we will come together.
If our leaders lie
deceive, manipulate
if we judge each other, like its judgment day
its cold outside
so let's spread a little harmony
touch my hand child, and sing along with me
Bridge:
we would find our our own way home
our own way home
Chorus:
These are the times
that try our souls
girl if we struggle, we can make it whole.
and when the stars say,
we're only human
Yeah, we'll make a difference,
we will come together.
and there's still time
to unlock the mysteries
of peace on earth
and love infinity

Original Sin
04:28
|

no place left to turn
nowhere left to run
i know where you've been
i've seen what you've done
pounding like the heart
beating in your chest
leaves you blind and lost
you can never win
original sin
coming back again
its coming back again
i won't let you run me down no
i won't make a sound
i would choke and drown
before i let you run me down
even while you sleep
can't hide from the dark
silently it creeps
the maker takes its mark
suddenly you're gone
I'm left all alone
a sadness never felt
an anger never shown
original sin
coming back again
its coming back again
i won't let you run me down no
i won't make a sound
i would choke and drown
before i let you run me down

Euphoria

How can I believe in democracy?
the meaning of the word is lost to me
the american flag looks tattered and torn
the little guy lost to the corporate board.
herded around like a flock of sheep
bred for the slaughter of the soft and weak
children of the world pray for relief
locked inside the capitalist machine
We watched it disappear right before our eyes
Let it slip away like a thief in the night
Reality is such when its built upon lies
Can we get it back? Will we see the light?
euphoria, euphoria
the ancient ways of the spirited west
stripped to the ground and paved for progress
the rivers were dammed and the trees were all cut
but this wasn't enough for the gluttonous
so we drilled for more oil and we conquered new lands
in the name of our father blood is spilt in the sands
the freedom of the press is bought and sold
if you bleed your gonna lead, the truth shall NOT be told
So watch it disappear right before our eyes
Let it slip away like a thief in the night
Reality is such when its built upon lies
Can we get it back? Will we see the light?

Five Miles Wide

down past the corner of el centro blvd
where the freeway commuters crawl past the pavement filled back yards.
a transient community awakens to the bells
ringing from the pay phone outside the saint moritz hotel
ringing on.....
half smoked butts from the pavement,
picking lunch from the Denny's trash
she sleeps out on the sidewalk,
next to a cart filled with everything that she has left
forty ounces for breakfast
always starts her day off right
until her head is blurred and angry,
half slurred thoughts of life unkind
left behind..
out on the west end of that sunset blvd
with its tree lined streets mirrored in freshly polished cars
ocean breezes blowing past the wilshire corridor
million dollar cottages, they lined up to the shore.
to the shore...
half smoked butts fill the ashtray
lines from a plate of glass
she's sipping on her beverage
feeling lively once again, but it won't last
twenty four years behind her
she can look at least thirty five
and soon her head gets blurred and angry
half slurred thoughts of life unkind
left behind
down past the corner of el centro blvd
where the freeway commuters crawl past the pavement filled back yards.
a transient community awakens to the bells
ringing from the pay phone outside the saint moritz hotel
ringing on.....

One More Day
05:46

I see the signs ahead
(in my mind)
These streets are cold and dead
(can I find)
There's nothing left to see
(move along)
It's all just make believe... I'm moving on
I hear the distant shore
(in my ears)
These things that I live for
(through the years)
The times are hard enough
(right or wrong)
But I'm not giving up... still going strong
I close my eyes and listen to the sound
Of the wandering gypsies and the circus clowns
This walk of fame is doing me no good
It's just one more day in Hollywood
This town is growing old
(still I stay)
The lights are getting cold
(they fade away)
There's no more mystery
(no alibis)
But I still see the beauty in her eyes
I walk these streets and still I wonder why
As the fading spirits slowly wander by
I've been here longer than I thought I should
It's just one more day in Hollywood
I close my eyes and listen to the sound
Of the wandering gypsies and the circus clowns
This walk of fame is doing me no good
It's just one more day in Hollywood

Blessed Electric

When I can't read the signs
then I won't last a day
In the wilds of your mind
where you go to face your pain
Ohhhhh, someday we'll find our way
The street is hot and filthy
as the summer's end draws near
we waste another season
then we waste another year
Oooh, someday we'll find our way
Oooh, why must we wait?
chorus:
Tonight we're gonna be blessed.
Tonight we've gonna feel electric
well push away your fears tonight
let's pretend that everything is alright
its alright y'all
When I can't read the times
Well I won't last a day
In this great land of consumption
without a dime to pay
Oh, someday I'll find a way
The sidewalk cracks grow deeper
the weeds are growing 'round
Now there's no place left to hide away
from the anger in this town.
Oh, someday we'll find our way
Oh, why must we wait?
chorus:
Tonight we gonna be blessed.
Yeah tonight we've gonna feel electric
Well push away your fears tonight
and pretend that everything is alright
everything's alright

When you stretch out your roots
just to reach the water's edge
You might get a taste for the life
that the water can bring you.
We got lost in adventure's sweet web
never troubled about the road ahead
How long can we sustain the flight?
How long before we are restless and tired?
Seeing the future is
rarely divine,
Let's bid our time on this
one starry night.
believe in the paths you choose
never seek the gold
at the rainbow's end
you will find it all.
How long can we sustain the flight?
How long before we are restless and tired?
We could question until the end,
still a bond remains
the journey is the same my friend.
Flight of Foreverman.
Flight of Foreverman.
How long can we sustain the flight?
How long before we are restless and tired?
Flight of Foreverman.
Flight of Foreverman.
Fly........................
