True love will find you in the end
You'll find out just who was your friend
Don't be sad, I know you will
But don't give up until
True love will find you in the end
This is a promise with a catch
Only if you're looking can it find you
'Cause true love is searching too
But how can it recognize you
If you don't step out into the light, the light
Don't be sad I know you will
Don't give up until
True love will find you in the end

I was livin' in a devil town
Didn't know it was a devil town
Oh lord it really brings me down
About the devil town
And all my friends were vampires
Didn't know they were vampires
Turns out I was a vampire myself
In the devil town
I was livin' in a devil town
Didn't know it was a devil town
Oh lord it really brings me down
About the devil town

I've come this far and I now I can make it
I've got a broken heart and you can't break a broken heart
I come knocking at your door
You don't love me anymore
But I just can't give up
'Cause I don't know what to do about it
You must be wrong if you think you don't love me
You could smile down on and put an happy ending to my
Song
I come knocking at your door
You don't live there anymore
Is it just a memory
Or am I a little crazy for you
If there's no love I just can't believe it
I've got a broken mind and only you can relieve it
I don't remember who you are
Are you someone that I saw
'Cause I really am confused
But I think that I still love you

there was this kid named syd and he was born
maybe the doctor hit him a little too hard
he just seemed to have gotten off to a bad start
never relax never relax never relax
big brothers and big sisters gave him lots of attention
but syd was a hyperactive kid
he just never seemed able to sit still
never relax never relax never relax
never relax
never relax never relax never relax
unlike the other kids on his block
syd never learned how to walk
he just ran around acting nervous
never relax never relax never relax
he sat in school in detention
drawing funny pictures on the wall
not a moment of peace did syd ever find
never relax never relax never relax
never relax
never relax never relax never relax
now when syd discovered mastrubation
he just couldn't keep a good thing down
but it didnt help much his condidton
never relax never relax never relax
syd signed up for the army
cause he got tired of working in the pottery
and they sent him to a foreign country
never relax never relax never relax
syd met this girl in east germany
and she invited him up to his room for some tea
then she pulled out a gun and took his money
never relax never relax never relax
she shot syd through the head
and syd died and went to hell
and he burned and he burned and he yelled
never been relaxed never relax never relax
now the devil said this aint fair
most people who come here have had their share of comfort
so he sat syd in a reclining chair
but it was an electric chair
never relax never relax never relax
never relax
never relax never relax never relax

Don't wanna be free of hope
And I'm at the end of my rope
It's so tough just to be alive
When I feel like the living dead
I'm giving it up so plain, I'm living my life in vain
And where am I going to?
I've gotta really try, try so hard to get by
And where am I going to?
I don't know where is up or down
And there ain't any love left around
Everybody wearin' a frown
Waitin' for Santa to come to town
You're giving it up so plain, you're living your lives in vain
And where are you going to?
You've gotta really try, try so hard to get by
And where are you going to?
Flip on your TV
And try to make sense out of that
If we were all in the movies
Maybe we wouldn't be so bored
We're giving it up so plain, we're living our lives in vain
And where are we going to?
We gotta really try, try so hard to get by
And where are we going to?

Speeding motorcycle, won't you change me?
Speeding motorcycle, won't you change me?
In a world of funny changes
Speeding motorcycle, won't you change me?
Speeding motorcycle of my heart
Speeding motorcycle; always changing me
Speeding motorcycle, don't you drive recklessly
Speeding motorcycle of my heart
Pretty girls have taken you for a ride
Hurt you deep inside but you never slowed down
Speeding motorcycle in my heart
Speeding motorcycle, let's speed smart
'Cause we don't want to wreck but
We can do a lot of tricks
We don't have to break our necks
To get our kicks
Speeding motorcycle, the road is ours
Speeding motorcycle, let's speed some more
'Cause we don't need reason and we don't need logic
We've got feeling and we're dang proud of it
Speeding motorcycle, there's nothing you can't do
Speeding motorcycle, I love you
Speeding motorcycle, let's just go
Speeding motorcycle
Let's go let's go let's go
Oo oo

Every time I think
And I do get by
And I have all my friends
And I do get high
But every time
I can’t deny
I’m already dead
And I already died
You think that it’s soup
And that it’s your friend
When it’s already dead
And poop in the end
And there’s nowhere to go
And no way to win
And then you start
To fantasize again
Mean girls give pleasure
It’s my greatest treasure
Mean girls give pleasure
It’s my greatest treasure
You can’t really live
And you can’t really send
And all of your dreams
Are probably pretend
And nothing makes sense
And it’s over again
And you’re already dead
And you’re dying for sin
To blind to see
And too weak to think
And the Angel of Death
Is taking you for a walk
Nothing to say
But just small talk
And your head
Is in a block
Mean girls give pleasure
It’s my greatest treasure
Mean girls give pleasure
It’s my greatest treasure
You can’t really love
And you can’t really hate
And all of your problems
Seem to be fake
Ice cream and cake
Then you know it’s not too late
The more you live for
And it drives you to tears
And love could wash up
on the shore
And you’re already dead
after all these years
And being rich
is better than being poor

Your picture is still
On my wall, on my wall
The colors are bright
Bright as ever
The red is strong, the blue is pure
Some things last a long time
Some things last a long time
Your picture is still
On my wall, on my wall
I think about you
Often, often
I won't forget all the things we did
Some things last a long time
Some things last a long time
It's funny, but it's true
And it's true, but it's not funny
Time comes and goes, but all the while
I still think of you
Some things last a long time
Your picture is still
On my wall, on my wall
The colors are bright
Bright as ever
The things we did, I can't forget
Some things last a lifetime
Some things last a lifetime
Some things last a lifetime

Dear Laika-Going Down

I think of all the times
I felt so low
When I got to feeling better
I got naive
and thought that it would stay
Going down
Going down
Going down again
Feeling small, very small
All, all the time
Been feeling like this
Since junior high
When will it all stop
Going down
Going down
Going down again
Think that I once had it all [-a-ha-hall ]
There's a man inside me
I'm gonna destroy
And he will be no more
He'll be dead and I'll be free
I'll unlock that door
Going down
Going down
Going down again

Everything's big in Texas
You know it is
I think I might have made a big mistake o o o
Chord organ blues
Chord organ blues
Singin' those chord organ blues
Wherever I go it's a wild wind
Maybe someday it'll blow me back home again
Chord organ blues
Chord organ blues
Singin' those chord organ blues
For every chord that is played
There is a word in my heart that has paid
'Cause my soul loves music
And it loves to hear it made
Singin' those chord organ blues

I Did Acid With Caroline and we both had a real good time,
We talked till' two in the morning, playing records and I showed her some drawings.
I Did Acid With Caroline and we were one, we were one.
We climbed up top of the building and looked out over the city,
The night was cool the wind was blowing, there were dead crickets everywhere.
I Did Acid With Caroline and we were one, we were one.
I Did Acid With Caroline, we burnt candles all night long,
She showed me strange books of black magic, my head was really spinning.
I Did Acid With Caroline and we were one, we were one.
I Did Acid With Caroline and we both had a real good time,
We talked till' two in the morning, playing records and I showed her some drawings.

Screed- Rock N'Roll EGA

There was a day when I was so lonely
Time passed me by I was more dead than alive
Every minute was like an hour
Every day was an eternity
I looked for hope but all around me people didn't seem to care
But oh... that rock N roll
It saved my soul
That Rock N Roll
If I ever thought that I could be happy
Seems like that allways faded away
And all the girls allready had boyfreinds
I was alone as lonely could be
I layed asleep and turned on the radio
The music to me was like a dream
Oh.. that rock N roll
It saved my soul
That Rock N Roll
Walk around but youve gotta have a reason
Something worth getting up in the morning for
My heart looked to art and I found the beetles
The thought I wasn't in the true deciples
Look for the fun and youll start a happy cycle
The music will make you come alive
Oh that rock N roll
It saved my soul
That rock N roll
She was crying Just like a baby
Didn't wanna fight, or more like maybe
Gotta get on home at night
Seet the petal to the right
See the love in a dulge tree
And wonder who was in the outfeild
Swear I know the truth and I ain't wearin no bunny suit
I got some doller on high look out

There was this big Guy
And He had a great idea.
He built Himself a world
And He put people on it.
But the people they turned wicked,
And they soon forgot
Who had made their very being
And put them on their planet.
So the God He sent His very own Son,
His only holy Son.
And He sent Him to the world
'cause something had to be done.
His son walked around and He told the truth
Like the truth had never been told.
He was kind to the poor,
His home was the road.
Unlike any other heroes
Of which a song could be sung,
He never did bad to anyone.
He never did no harm.
But there were other people who weren't so nice
And they plotted to take His life
And the Man knew all about it
But He didn't even hide.
And they beat Him and they robbed Him
And they hung Him for bein' good.
And they laughed and made jokes
While they stood in his blood.
But there's a happy ending to the story.
I think you'll be glad to know
He came back to life in glory,
And up from the grave He arose.
So before you turn out your light,
Remember this one Man
Who lived comfortably in heaven
But gave it all up to hang on a cross.
Because He hung for you and me
And He came to set us free.
'Cause his Dad had a great idea
About the way things ought to be.

LA Peach-Worried Shoes

I took my lucky break and I broke it in two
Put on my worried shoes
My ah ah worried shoes
And my shoes took me so many miles and they never wore out
My worried shoes
My ah ah worried shoes
My ah ah worried shoes
I made a mistake and I never forgot
I tied knots in the laces of
My ah ah worried shoes
And with every step that I'd take I'd remember my mistake
As I marched further and further away
In my ah ah worried shoes
My ah ah worried shoes
And my shoes took me down a crooked path
Away from all welcome mats
My ah ah worried shoes
And then one day I looked around and I found the sun shining down
And I took off my worried shoes
And the feet broke free
I didn't need to wear
Then I knew the difference between worrying and caring
Cause I've got a lot of walking to do
And I don't want to wear
My ah ah worried shoes

Despair came knocking
At my door
And I let her in
For a while
She sat on the couch
In the end, smoking
She said nothing
Suddenly I felt tired
I began to feel tired
And all of the sudden,
the room seemed dizzy and dirty
Despair came knocking
And I let her in
For a while

Try to remember
But my feelings can't know for sure
Tried to reach out
But it's gone
Lucky stars in your eyes
I am walking the cow
I really don't know how I came here
I really don't know why I'm staying here
Oh, oh, oh
I am walking the cow
Tried to point my finger
But the wind was blowing me around
In circles
Circles
Lucky stars in your eyes
I am walking the cow
I really don't know what I have to fear
I really don't know what I have to care
Oh, oh, oh
I am walking the cow

I'm getting closer to the fact
I've turned my back on silly dreams
I'm walking down that lonely road
And my heavy load, I didn't bother to bring it
And the sun shines down on me
I feel like I deserve it
The sun shines down
I'm hiding out where you can't see
Behind the wall in the back of the room
I'm crawling slowly through the dark
And feeling for a punch line
And the sun shines down
I want to feel like I deserve it
The sun shines down
I'm walking down that empty road
But it ain't empty now, because I'm on it
I'm getting closer to a hope
That I can carry and take home with me
The sun shines down on me
I feel like I have to earn it
The sun shines down
The sun shines down on me
I feel like I deserve it
The sun shines down

Listen up and I'll tell a story
About an artist growing old
Some would try for fame and glory
Others aren't so bold
Everyone and friends and family
Saying, "hey, get a job
Why do you only do that only?
Why are you so odd?"
"We don't really like what you do
We don't think anyone ever will
It's a problem that you have
And this problem's made you ill"
Listen up and I'll tell a story
About an artist growing old
Some would try for fame and glory
Others aren't so bold
The artist walks alone
Someone says behind his back
"He's got his gall to call himself that
He doesn't even know where he's at"
The artist walks among the flowers
Appreciating the sun
He does this all his waking hours
But is it really so wrong
They sit in front of their TVs
Saying, "hey, this is fun"
And they laugh at the artist
Saying, "he doesn't know how to have fun"
The best things in life are truly free
Singing birds and laughing bees
You got me wrong says he
The sun don't shine in your TV
Listen up and I'll tell a story
About an artist growing old
Some would try for fame and glory
Others aren't so bold
Everyone and friends and family
Saying, "hey, get a job
Why do you only do that only?
Why are you so odd?"
"We don't really like what you do
We don't think anyone ever will
It's a problem that you have
And this problem's made you ill"
Listen up and I'll tell a story
About an artist growin' old
Some would try for fame and glory
Others just like to watch the world

You told me that your honky tonking days were through
But you came in this morning at a quarter till two
Oh baby what you gonna do about me
You said that fling with Johnny was a one night stand
How come I seen him sitting with you holding your hand
Oh baby what you gonna do about me
What you gonna do about me
How come you treat me like an old hound dog
I feel as helpless as a knot on a log
And you ain't got no sympathy for me
I ain't telling no lie
You sure know how to make a grown man cry
Oh oh baby what you gonna do about me
I let you use my car you said it's just for a day
But you stayed gone a month and turned up out in LA
Oh baby what you gonna do about me
I said I've had enough I'm gonna take back my ring
Then I found out that you'd done gone and pawned the thing
Oh baby what you gonna do about me
What you gonna do about me
That's something that you'd better think about
One of these days you're gonna wear me out
And you'll be sorry wait and see wait and see
There's gonna come a time
You'll realize a good man's hard to find
Oh oh baby what you gonna do about me
Oh oh baby what you gonna do about me

Every time you look at me
You see the monster in my eye
If you could only help me girl
We could be in paradise
Be happy every after
And there would be no more tears
Eternal peace is what I'm after
Maybe girl, you could help me understand
The monster inside of me
You know that I want you
You can see that I need you
But you hate the monster
Well honey, I do too
I need your love to carry me
Out of the darkness of the pit
You know I feel just like shit
Maybe girl, you could help me fight
The monster inside of me
Maybe if someone had said to Vincent van Gogh
"Keep punching, Joe!"
Maybe he'd be here today
Maybe he'd be here today
You inspire the strength within
And I can be conqueror
As my spirit rise above us
Maybe girl, you could help me destroy
The monster inside of me
And we could be happy
And we could be happy
And we could be happy
And we could be happy

Honey, I sure miss you
And I long to kiss you
And I miss you so much
Your loving touch
You brought out the best in me
Can you bring it back to me?
'Cause I love you so much
Your loving touch
Every time I think about you
Love comes down
But you're still not around
Honey, I sure miss you
And I wish you were here today
'Cause I want you so much
Your loving touch
Nothing more important to me
No one any more closer to me
'Cause I love you so much
Your loving touch
Every time I think about you
Love comes down
But you're still not around

You put my love out the door
put my love out the door
I rode out to your house
and brought you a valentine
and what did you do
put my love out the door
put my love out the door
out in the cold
Now every February
my heart gets sore
when I remember how you
put my love out the door
I sat in your living room
I told you that I really loved you
You said you didn't wanna hear no more
put my love out the door
put my love out the door
out in the cold
I wrote something in the snow
in front of your porch
I'm carrying a torch
put my love out the door
put my love out the door
put my love out the door
out in the cold
out in the cold
out in the cold
