Among My Swan  1996

Disappear

Just because
You call my name
I cannot hear
It's not the same
You close your eyes
And knock me back
All the things that I had to have

And now you choose the thorny cave
I can't believe what I had to say
All the things you never say
I'll never be what you want me to be

Now I can't disappear

Close your eyes and look at me
I can't believe what I cannot see
Everything is like you say
Change your mind and you'll have to forgive

And I can't disappear
Now I can't
Now I can't

Flowers In December

Before I let you down again
I just want to see you in your eyes
I would have taken everything out on you
I only thought you could understand

They say everyman goes blind in his heart
And they say everybody steals somebody's heart away
And I got nothing more to say about it
Nothing more than you would me

Send me your flowers, of your december
Send me your dreams, of your candy wine
I got just one thing I can't give you
Just one more thing of mine

They say everyman goes blind in his heart
They say everybody steals somebody's heart away
And I've been wondering why you let me down
And I been taking it all for granted

Rhymes Of An Hour

Cannot hear what your saying
Could I tell you so
And I can't believe my troubles
And I'm going home

Lie and sleep
Under deep
You know

While the cold winter waiting
While it's turning cold
All these things we were searching
Now we just don't know

Lie and sleep
Under deep
I think you know

For the rhymes of an hour
Now I'm going home
And I can't believe I'm nothing
'Cause I'm coming down

Lie and sleep
Under deep
Do you know?

 Cry, Cry

Cry, cry for you
Just like you knew I wouldn't do
Cry, cry for you
Just like a song in the last light

Should I leave it all away
Not like the kindness that you gave
That's why it never seems the same
Behind your eyes

I stood behind when no one asked me
And took you home after the fight
I drove my car into city lights
Drove down the road that I am (on)

Cry, cry for you
That's what you think I want to be
Cry, cry for you
An empty heart that sees me through

Cry, cry for you
Just like you knew I wouldn't do
Cry cry for you
Just like a song in the last light

Cry, cry for you
Just like you knew I wouldn't do

Take Everything

I can't believe your thinking
Save everyone, inside you
Take everything
Fake everything
Save everything--about me

All of you, all right
Just because, I want to know
Do you still come last night clear eyes pale
You never got there even though you say you will
Sorry now that you've fallen from my eyes
That's the truth

Why are you telling me about ???
Why tell me about anything
You're just waiting for her to come apart
You're just waiting for her

Take everything
Fake everything
Save everything

Still Cold

You really had a million hearts to break
Now it's time that I never left you in the moonlight
How comes always someone else driving your car
Taking you different places in the sunlight

Still cold like the stars
That's just the way you are
Still cold like the stars

You used to say your heart felt like a stone
Now everything you ever wanted is your own

Still cold like the stars
That's just the way you are
Still cold like the stars

All Your Sisters

And I knew I was close to you
And I will
Catch me flying in the sun
Catch me drinking of your wine

I'm gonna put something in you
Make the devil feel surprised
All your sisters wanna fly
Around my golden sky
Around my golden sky

Just because you feel, hollow inside it's real
Just because you feel, hollow inside it's real

I'm gonna put something in you
Make the devil feel surprised
Make the devil feel surprised

And I knew I was close to you
And I knew
Catch me flying in the sun
Catch me drinking of your wine

I've Been Let Down

I've been let down
And I still comin' round
I've been put down
And I'm still comin' round for you
Comin' round for you

Take away everything that feels fine
Catch a shape in the circles of my mind
Make me feel like I belong to you
Make me feel even if it ain't true

Catch a train on a silver afternoon
A thousand miles and I'm getting there too soon
Take me there when I should be going home
Tell me why I still feelin' all alone

I've been let down
And I'm still coming round
I've been put down
And I'm still comin' round for you
Comin' round for you

Roseblood

Everyday you can see
Changes in her hair and smile
I can wait a million days
While her smile goes away

Sometimes i feel dizzy
By the slices in her hands
Secrets in her lipstick mouth
Shining on again
Shining on again

Capture her smile and then that's all
You won't know her so it's okay
Funny how things change
Funny how things change

Happy

Field of light
They hold me inside
Count my stars
They're all lucky in the sky

There's a time
When you go off of light
And all my things look like someone else's memories

Cold outside
Burns a great big hole in my heart
I just wait till you're happy
And your smile makes it bright
It makes it bright

Sleep inside
Ocean has miles
It shimmers and it glows
For some people, I know it shines
I know it shines

Stay inside
Don't colors me blind
They hold me inside
Count my stars
Let them shine
I know they shine

Umbilical

She should have seen the thing in mother's belly
Grew up along side her sister of ethnical
She reached up for nourishment and fall from her mother's umbilical cord
With her sister in the womb

One day she opened her mouth wide and swallowed wide her surroundings
The red, and orange and the sounds all around her
Now she was in her corner
Now she was in her corner
Her eyes closed with some kind of complete
Happiness
Some kind of complete
Happiness

Now she can walk in the sunlight with a quiet of relief inside her
Now she walks in the sunlight
An extra feeling inside her soul, makes her cry

In her mother's belly her mouth opens wide her sister
One day she opens her mouth wide and swallows her surroundings
The red, and orange and the sounds all around her
In the sunlight...makes it (go away)
Now she was in her corner
In the sunlight
Now she was in her corner she listens.
Her eyes closed with some kind of complete
Happiness
Some kind of complete
Happiness

And now she walks in the sunlight
With the extra feeling, inside her
Now she walks in the sunlight
With the extra feeling, inside her
Inside her

Look On Down From The Bridge

Look on down from the bridge
There's still fountains down there
Look on down from the bridge
It's still raining, up here

Everybody seems so far away from me
Everybody just wants to be free
Look away from the sky
It's no different when you're leaving home

I can't be the same thing to you now
I'm just gone, just gone
How could I say goodbye
How could I say goodbye
Goodbye

Maybe I'll just place my hands over you
And close my eyes real tight
There's a light in your eyes
And you know--yeah, you know
Look on down from the bridge
I'm still waiting for you
