Track Name: World That Can't Feel (NYC)
And the reason we laugh is for one day well cry
Like the reason we live is for one day we'll die
And the reason we give is cause one day we'll steal
here's a song for a world that can't feel.

She was once a good friend of mine
we would gather up stones & we'd laugh all the time
she'd paint pictures & maps of the stars & her eyes
would fill up the night
She was once a lover of mine
we would sit in her garden & drink all her wine
blow out candles & talk about god in the dark
then we'd sleep in the yard

And the reason we laugh is for one day well cry
Like the reason we live is for one day we'll die
And the reason we give is cause one day we'll steal
here's a song for a world that can't feel.

Winter came & it carried no torch
it just fogged up the windows & stood on the porch
The flower she planted is hiding it's face as it bends
and dies in the wind
And the lantern lit up our room
as we drew all the tarots & cast all the runes
then she'd take down her hair & she'd lay in my arms
cause that's where she belonged

And the reason we laugh is for one day well cry
Like the reason we live is for one day we'll die
And the reason we give is cause one day we'll steal
here's a song for a world that can't feel.

She was once a soul mate of mine
'till she packed up her clothing, her books & her wine
she wrote me a note that said
"Oh, honey don't cry, but I can't say goodbyes"
And the sun went down early that day as the stars
came out twinkling like demons at play
and tears fill my eyes when I think of the words you can't say Like "Why did you go away?"

And the reason we laugh is for one day well cry
Like the reason we live is for one day we'll die
And the reason we give is cause one day we'll steal
here's a song for a world that can't feel.
Track Name: Fairweather Friend (LA)
Dear god I said I'm sorry
but you know you really hurt me
I was only trying to hold you
to give warmth not to control you
No I didn't mean to scare you
I was only trying to tell you
that we're near the final chapter
of our days of love and laughter

It's the end
goodbye my fair weather friend
It's the end.
In the sunlight you are with me
through the starlight to tomorrow
when the rain comes I can't find you
I'm beneath the clouds forgotten.

And the world is getting older
and our eyes are growing weary
and our final words are spoken
and the hourglass is empty
No more angle songs to call you
no more poems to exalt you
I don't want to be remembered
burn my poetry and letters

It's the end,
goodbye my fair weather friend
It's the end.
And at last the world seduced you
yes it stole you from my slumber
Now you're going with those people
who just want to pull you under
It's the end
goodbye my fair weather friend
It's the end
I've been walking down the back streets
I've been crying in the shadows
I've been hiding in my diary
but this is my final chapter

Dear god I said I'm sorry
but you know you really hurt me
I was only trying to hold you
to give warmth not to control you... it's the end
Track Name: The Accident (NYC)
I was raised on Jesus Christ & I was told how he gave up his life. As a child, I would pray at night & I would swear, I felt protected by his holy light.
& I believed in his holy book, though I confess I never much gave it a look. But I was told of the glorious stories within, filled me full of hope, kept me safe in a world full of sin & I believed that this was the end of the world, Yes I believed that this was the end of the world

I was born 1965, in the united states, the land of the immaculate lie. & I have grown, to realize, all that I looked forward to, wasn’t real, it was false, it was part of the LIE! Like Santa Claus, Superman, Sacred Cross, Holy Lamb, Satan & Peter Pan, Soul of the dying man, Cops & Cathedrals, TV’s & Angels, Serpents that speak & the garden of Eden. Church & society, Alcohol, LSD, Movie stars, Athletes, Politics & Charities. Your preacher & confessor is a child molester & they fall to his feet but he won’t turn the other cheek! & we were born with a crown of thorns & nails through our hands & our feet. The earth consumes without empathy, the bodies of all who believe. Jesus Christ, tell me please, we’ve only got one thing to pray... Why give a life to human being if you're just going to take it away!!!

I was raised on Jesus Christ & I was told it was he who had given me life, But the truth be known, I was an accident, It wasn’t love or affection, or immaculate conception, It was a beast with an erection & a woman who bled on the sheets & I realize, there’s one thing that’s waiting on me, It isn’t heaven or hell, It’s just a box & a veil & a man in a suit that tells lies as I’m lowered in the ground... is this the end of the world... Is this the end of the world?
