Costanza & Tricky:
I wait for God and it's very hard
I am the lamb I don't understand
I drink your blood and I'm still thirsty
I wait for God and it's very hard

Costanza:
I'm stuck in the church
Stuck in the verse
Stuck in the words
Stuck in my nerves
Stuck in the wrong
Stuck all along
Stuck in the bars
Stuck in the cars
Stuck in the time
Stuck in this line

I'm doing fine
I'm doing mine
I'm reading signs
We're killing time
I'm stuck in time
Stuck in this line

Costanza & Tricky:
I wait for God and it's very hard
I am the lamb I don't understand
I drink your blood and I'm still thirsty
I wait for God and it's very hard

Tricky:
I wait for God I wait for Christ
I wait for wife
I wait for life
Tomorrow come
We feel the sun
Tomorrow come
We feel as one
The only God
The only son
Holy from the only one

Costanza:
We're on our own now we're fully grown
I'm all alone when I roam

Costanza & Tricky:
I wait for God and it's very hard
I am the lamb I don't understand
I drink your blood and I'm still thirsty
I wait for God and it's very hard

(lyrics are approximated/interpreted)

And I am framed
It's a fire
Our house is gone
and I refrain
are you God
are you God
Your little boy
his knotted fingers meet the floor
And now like a baby he ignores
And you walk like a baby
free spin flowers beneath your ray
Be silent a bit and I will sing
The sea in front of me away
And I am now a baby

Keep it down, do our last wishes
One more high and I'll feed my servants
Someday I have to find my way to something
It's not hard to believe my service
Come inside of her inner circles
Someday I will hide away sober

She seems to read minds
And I'm dead dumb and blind
Made a friend I could use
She's the same

Old Age

Some are killed and some are wanted
Some were kind and I feigned my service
Someday I won't find my way sober
This old fairy believes my servants
One more ounce and awake my servants
Someday I wind my way to something

She sees too many hands
and I'm dead dumb and blind
face to face in the mirror
we survived

Old Age
Old Age
Old Age

it's such a fantasy
you're all weak
come and hide away
i'm beggin to see you

one more high and I'll face my service
coming down to relieve my servants
someday I will know my way to monday
secondary but I fake my service
one more high and I won't be sh!tfaced
someday I will allow my way to sunday

She seems to remind us
when I'm dead, dumb and blind
where's the frame I use
Jesus saves

Old Age
Old Age
Old Age

Jesus Saves

Old Age..

(lyrics approximated/interpreted)

one more day to complete my service
one more high to decay my nervous
wondering how i'll ever find my way sober

one more debt to complete my suburb
one more time here to find my servant
one more day to find my way then its over

she said it would do me proud
and i'll never let her down
we can bring in the news
leave the soul

all for you
all for you
all for you

one more bed could you bring my supper
one more down in the finest suburb
one more day and i'll find my way somewhere

i'm not high, could you date my cover
no more beer and have you seen my mother
i'm not dead, can you find my wig,
its over

she seemed to read minds
and i know I let her down
bring the food out to you
eat it soon

old age
old age
old age

just you need
you read, you pick
Hmmm
who do you think you knew
Hmmmm

one more day to complete my circuit
one more high and i'll find my mother
dont really care if i find my way sober

one more doubt and i'm afraid i'll suffer
i couldnt hear anything i muttered
one more day and i'll find my way
its over

he seems to read minds
and i know we're out of time
bring the flame here with you
dream the same thing i do
be the thing i'll remind
take a load off a man
breathe the shame over you
leave the lie

old age
old age

I could be a rambler from the seven dials
I don't pay taxes 'cause I never file
I don't do business that don't make me smile
I love my aeroplane 'cause she's got style
I'm a treetop flyer

I'll fly any cargo, that you can pay to run the bush league pilots, they just can't get the job done
Got to fly down into the canyon, ya' don't ever see the sun
There's no such thing as an easy run
For a treetop flyer

I'm flyin' low, I'm in high demand
Go fifteen feet over the Rio Grande
I'll blow the mesquite right up of off the sand
Seldom seen, especially when I land
I'm a treetop flyer
Born Survivor

People been asking me, "Where'd you learn to fly that way?"
Ot was over in Vietnam, chasin' NVA
The government taught me, and they taught me right,
Stay down, under the treeline, you might be alright
Treetop flyer

So I'm comin' home, I'm runnin' low and fast
I promised my woman this is gonna be my last
I get the ship down, I tie her fast
then some old boy walks up, and he says "Hey son" wanna' make some fast cash?
I'm a treetop flyer

Well there's things I am, and there's things I'm not
I am a smuggler and I could get shot
I aint going to die, I ain't goin' to get caught,
See I'm a flyin' fool, in an aeroplane that's just too hot
I'm a treetop flyer

I would like to dedicate this beautiful song to my Libra Moon, who I can and cannot live with. Haven't decided yet.

Constant Craving by KD Lang

Even through the darkest fates
be it thick or thin
Always someone marches brave
here beeee neath my skin

Constant craving has always been

Maybe a great magnet pulls
all souls towards truth
or maaaay be it is life itself
feeds wisdom to its youth

Constant craving has always beeen
craving
uh aaaah
constant craving
has always been
Constant craving has always been
craving
ahhhhh ahhhhh
constant craving
has always been (X4)

I was a little girl alone in my little world who dreamed of a little home for me.
I played pretend between the trees, and fed my houseguests bark and leaves, and laughed in my pretty bed of green.

I had a dream
That I could fly from the highest swing.
I had a dream.

Long walks in the dark through woods grown behind the park, I asked God who I'm supposed to be.
The stars smiled down on me, God answered in silent reverie. I said a prayer and fell asleep.

I had a dream
That I could fly from the highest tree.
I had a dream.

Now I'm old and feeling grey. I don't know what's left to say about this life I'm willing to leave.
I lived it full and I lived it well, there's many tales I've lived to tell. I'm ready now, I'm ready now, I'm ready now to fly from the highest wing.

I had a dream

I will take your childhood dreams
And turn them into to beautiful film
I will take your most important things
Cast them gold fill a museum

So your heart doesn't know where mine's been
I'll never let your heart go where mine's been

I will kiss away every tear
They'll disappear in my mouth
And i will believe in all your fears
You let them in, i'll let them out
And put them in their place, my love

So your heart doesn't know where mine's been
I'll never let your heart go where mine's been

I took a drive today
Time to emancipate
I guess it was the beatings made me wise
But Im not about to give thanks, or apologize
I couldnt breathe, holdin me down
Hand on my face, pushed to the ground
Enmity gaged, united by fear
Forced to endure what I could not forgive...

I seem to look away
Wounds in the mirror waved
It wasnt my surface most defiled
Head at your feet, fool to your crown
Fist on my plate, swallowed it down
Enmity gaged, united by fear
Tried to endure what I could not forgive

Saw things (4x)
Clearer (2x)
Once you, were in my...
Rearview mirror...

I gather speed from you ******* with me
Once and for all Im far away
I hardly believe, finally the shades...are raised...hey...

Saw things so much clearer }
Once you, once you... }
(3x) rearview mirror }

I told althea I was feeling lost, lacking in some direction.
Althea told me upon scrutiny that my back might need protection.
I told althea that treachery was tearing me limb from limb.
Althea told me better cool down boy, settle back, easy jim.

You may be Saturdays child, all alone, moving with a tinge of grace.
You may be a clown in the burying ground, or just another pretty face.
You may meet the fate on ophelia, sleeping and penchence to dream.
Honest to the point of recklessness, self-centered in the extreme.

Aint nobody messing with you, but you, your friends are getting most concerned.
Loose with the truth, baby, its your fire, but baby dont get burned.
When the smoke has cleared, she said, thats what she said to me.
Gonna want a bed to lay your head and a little sympathy.

There are things you can replace, and others you cannot.
The time has come to weigh those things.
This space is getting hot, you know this space is getting hot.

I told althea Im a roving son, and I was born to be a bachelor.
Althea told me, okay, thats fine, so now Im trying to catch her.
Cant talk to you without talking to me, were guilty of the same old thing.
Been talking alot about less and less and forgetting the love we bring.

[Pre-Chorus]
Now i'm hitting the wall and she begs me to quit,
And she drags me to church but i'm scared to commit,
And i'm loosing my mind 'cause she hides all my **** .
She wont go away.

[Chorus]
And all I ask of her is
Pray for me,
'Cause I don't want to
Pray for me,
If you love me.
Cross your heart and hope that I wont die before the best day of my life.
Just pray for me tonight.

[Verse 2]
I dragged myself out of the bed that she made,
And I escape her in a black motercade
She's pushing bibles and a clear bill of health.
I can't make her go away.

[Pre-Chorus]
Now i'm hitting the wall and she begs me to quit,
And she drags me to church but i'm scared to commit,
And i'm loosing my mind 'cause she hides all my **** .
She wont go away.

[Chorus]
And all I ask of her is
Pray for me,
'Cause I don't want to
Pray for me,
If you love me.
Cross your heart and hope that I don't die before the best day of my life.
Just pray for me tonight.

[Final Pre-Chorus and Chorus Combo]
Now i'm hitting the wall and she begs me to quit,

Oh, there ain't no rest for the wicked,
Money don't grow on trees,
I got bills to pay,
I got mouths to feed,
There ain't nothing in this world for free.
I know I can't slow down,
I can't hold back
Though you know I wish I could,
Oh no there ain't no rest for the wicked,
Until we close our eyes for good.

Not even 15 minutes later,
I'm still walking down the street,
When I saw the shadow of a man creep out of sight,
And then he swept up from behind,
Put a gun up to my head,
He made it clear he wasn't looking for a fight,
He said give me all you've got,
I want your money not your life,
If you try to make a move I wont think twice,
I told him you can have my cash,
But first you know I've got to ask,
What made you want to live this kind of life?

He said there ain't no rest for the wicked,
Money don't grow on trees,
I got bills to pay
I got mouths to feed
Ain't nothing in this world for free.
I know I can't slow down,
I can't hold back
Though you know I wish I could
Oh no there ain't no rest for the wicked,
Until we close our eyes for good.

Now a couple hours past,
And I was sitting in my house,
The day was winding down and coming to an end,
So I turned on the TV,
And flipped it over to the news,
And what I saw I almost couldn't comprehend,
I saw a preacher man in cuffs
Taking money from the church,
He stuffed his bank account with righteous dollar bills
But even still I can't say much
Because I know were all the same,
Oh yes we all seek out to satisfy those thrills.

You know there ain't no rest for the wicked,
Money don't grow on trees,
We got bills to pay
We got mouths to feed
Ain't nothing in this world for free.
Oh no
We can't slow down,
We can't hold back
Though you know we wish we could.
You know there ain't no rest for the wicked,
Until we close our eyes for good.

"when he played this song, for some reason i thought of you....." http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WXa5wRrtbbk

It was a ruby that she wore
On a chain around her neck
In the shape of a heart
In the shape of a heart
It was a time I wont forget
For the sorrow and regret
And the shape of a heart
And the shape of a heart

I guess I never knew
What she was talking about
I guess I never knew
What she was living without

People speak of love dont know what theyre thinking of
Wait around for the one who fits just like a glove
Speak in terms of belief and belonging
Try to fit some name to their longing
People speak of love

There was a hole left in the wall
From some ancient fight
About the size of a fist
Or something thrown that had missed
And there were other holes as well
In the house where our nights fell
Far too many to repair
In the time that we were there

People speak of love dont know what theyre thinking of
Reach out to each other though the push and shove
Speak in terms of a life and the learning
Try to think of a word for the burning

You keep it up
You try so hard
To keep a life from coming apart
And never know
What breaches and faults are concealed
In the shape of a heart

It was the ruby that she wore
On a stand beside the bed
In the hour before dawn
When I knew she was gone
And I held it in my hand
For a little while
And dropped it into the wall
Let it go, heard it fall

I guess I never knew
What she was talking about
I guess I never knew
What she was living without

People speak of love dont know what theyre thinking of
Wait around for the one who fits just like a glove
Speak in terms of a life and the living
Try to find the word for forgiving

You think you own whatever land you land on
The Earth is just a dead thing you can claim
But I know every rock and tree and creature
Has a life, has a spirit, has a name

You think the only people who are people
Are the people who look and think like you
But if you walk the footsteps of a stranger
You'll learn things you never knew you never knew

Have you ever heard the wolf cry to the blue corn moon
Or asked the grinning bobcat why he grinned?
Can you sing with all the voices of the mountains?
Can you paint with all the colors of the wind?
Can you paint with all the colors of the wind?

Come run the hidden pine trails of the forest
Come taste the sunsweet berries of the Earth
Come roll in all the riches all around you
And for once, never wonder what they're worth

The rainstorm and the river are my brothers
The heron and the otter are my friends
And we are all connected to each other
In a circle, in a hoop that never ends

How high will the sycamore grow?
If you cut it down, then you'll never know
And you'll never hear the wolf cry to the blue corn moon

For whether we are white or copper skinned
We need to sing with all the voices of the mountains
We need to paint with all the colors of the wind

You and me are the same
we don't know or care whose to blame
But we know that whoever holds the reins
Nothing will change our cause has gone insane

And these wars they can't be won
And these wars they can't be won
And do you want them to go on, on and on?
Why split these states when there can be only one?

And must we do as we're told?
And must we do as we're told?

instrumental break

You and me fall in line
To be punished for unproven crimes
And we know there is no one we can trust
Our ancient heroes they are turning to dust

And these wars they can never be won
Does anyone know or care how they begun?
They just promise to go on, and on and on
But soon we will see there can only be one
