Lyrics:
the sky.
Lord, look at me here,
I'm rooted like a tree here, yes I am now.
I got those sit-down,
Can't cry Oh Lord, I'm gonna die blues.
You know
been black, ain't no hope in here
And we been let down by who's supposed to care
Me and Steven, gull wings, see those is rare
Ain't no Tonys in my
Here I am lost in the wind
'Round in circles sailing
Like a ship that never comes in
Standing by myself
Sing a sad song for a good man
Sing
softly tell you something
Here I am and here's my love, I just want you to come closer, yeah
Come a little closer, let me whisper in your ear
'Cause I
I take what I want
I'm a bad go-getter, yeah, yes I am
I'm never a loser
And I'm never bitter, yeah, oh no
'Cause I take what I want
Yeah,
this question first
Who am I living for?
Is this my limit?
Can I endure some more?
Chances I'm given, question existing
Who am I living for?
Is
Beneath a darkened sky
Or am I standing still
With the scenery flying by
Or am I standing still
Out of the corner of my eye
Was that you passing
all of the world is cheery
By that old cottage door,
Why are my wings so weary?
I can't fly any more!
Here I am praying,
Brokenly saying,
"Give
wire here or was it red?
'Cause it's my fate
I operate on hate
(Hate, hate, hate, hate, hate)
I go by many other names
But now
I am
every day of the week
When I look out my window it's brown and it's bleak
Outta here
How am I gonna get outta here?
I'm thinking outta here
When am
Little one it's so nice to have you near me
To feel once again the love you bring here
Oh my little one, I am sorry for the pain you've felt
Say
a ghost but I cannot fly
I'm stuck here as the years slide by
I need a resting place 'cause I
Already felt my body die
If I had a host of ghosts
Day by day, night after night
Blinded by the neon lights
Hurry here, hustlin' there
No one's got the time to spare
Money's tight, nothin' free
Here I am, baby,
Come and take me,
Take me by the hand.
Show me,
Here I am, baby.
It always ends up this way,
Me begging you every day.
I am becalmed, lost to nothing
Warm weather and a holocaust
Left to die by two good friends
Abandoned me and put to sleep
Left to die by two
In love, you and I, you and I, you and I
I am glad at least in my life I found someone
That may not be here forever to see me through
But I
I had not planned on seeing you
I was afraid of what I'd do
But pride is strong, here am I
And I just can't let that you say goodbye
Please
even dreams left on my shelf
How near I am
To going mad here by myself
Why did I dare
Right from the start, I swear I knew
I shouldn’t care, but I
I am becalmed
Lost to nothing
Warm weather and
Holocaust
Left to die by two good friends
Abandoned me and put to sleep
Left to die by two good
this question first
Who am I living for?
Is this my limit?
Can I endure some more?
Chances I'm given, question existing
Who am I living for?
Is
All these things keep running through my mind
Everyone and everything I left behind
Standing in the cold great dark
Watching cars go by
And all these
number’s up
When I am called by God above
Don’t have my name inscribed into the stone
Just say: Here lies love, here lies love
Here lies love just say:
Here
weary tryin' to carry this load all by myself
I'm bone tired and fallin', can't you hear me callin'
I need somebody's help
I am a young man growin'
There are no accidents around here
I am willing - lay your hands on me
I am ready - lay your hands on me
I believe - lay your hands on me, over me
