superman

i can’t stand to fly
i’m not that naive
i’m just out to find
the better part of me

i’m more than a bird…i’m more than a plane
more than some pretty face beside a train
it’s not easy to be me

wish that i could cry
fall upon my knees
find a way to lie
about a home i’ll never see

it may sound absurd…but don’t be naive
even heroes have the right to bleed
i may be disturbed…but won’t you concede
even heroes have the right to dream
it’s not easy to be me

up, up and away…away from me
well it’s all right…you can all sleep sound tonight
i’m not crazy…or anything…

i can’t stand to fly
i’m not that naive
men weren’t meant to ride
with clouds between their knees

i’m only a man in a silly red sheet
digging for kryptonite on this one way street
only a man in a funny red sheet
looking for special things inside of me
inside of me ...... inside of me ...(x2)

i’m only a man in a funny red sheet
i’m only a man looking for a dream

i’m only a man in a funny red sheet

it’s not easy ... wu.. hoo.. hoo..
it’s not easy to be me...

100 years

i’m 15 for a moment
caught in between 10 and 20
and i’m just dreaming
counting the ways to where you are

i’m 22 for a moment
and she feels better than ever
and we’re on fire
making our way back from mars

15 there's still time for you
time to buy and time to lose
15 there’s never a wish better than this
when you've only got 100 years to live...

i’m 33 for a moment
i'm still “the man,” but you see i’m a “they”
a kid on the way, babe
a family on my mind

i’m 45 for a moment
the sea is high
and i’m heading into a crisis
chasing the years of my life

15 there's still time for you
time to buy and time to lose yourself
within a morning star
15 i’m alright with you
15 there’s never a wish better than this
when you've only got a 100 years to live...

halftime goes by
suddenly you’re wise
another blink of an eye
67 is gone
the sun is getting high
we’re moving on...

i’m 99 for a moment
i’m dying for just another moment
and i’m just dreaming
counting the ways to where you are

15 there's still time for you
22 i feel her too
33 you're on your way
every day's a new day...ooooo...

15 there’s still time for you
time to buy and time to choose
hey 15 there’s never a wish better than this
when you've only got 100 years to live...

the garden

do you believe in the man in the garden
do you believe that he was there
do you believe in the man in the garden
do you believe or do you care

did he rise from the ashes and lead the sky above
did he lie in the name of love

....in the garden

do you believe in the path that you follow
do you believe it takes you where you want
do you believe in the lies that you swallow
do you believe it takes you where you go

see the man. he never lies he never will
did he fight for the right to kill

....in the garden
....in the garden

there's a little man in a house alone...waiting
he doesn't lie.
he doesn't wait for love to hold on to
he doesn't lie. he doesn't wait...

johnny's in the garden
i see the err in my ways

....in the garden

do you believe in the man in the garden

day by day

day by day i wake up for you i do
and i rise to who knows who
well if i can say...some other day

day by day i reach out to you i do
and i pretend there's something to it
and if i can say...i've had better days

day by day i resort to you i do
and i wash up after you're through
if i can say...that's o.k.

you're in my head again
you're in my bed again
you're in my mirror again

and if you don't mind me...i don't mind you

day by day i reflect on you i do
i reflect on you i do

i took her leaving like i did before
i turned around and i asked for more
and she didn't even mean a thing to me

i left my spirits at the chapel door
i sailed around til i lost the war
and you didn't even think to send a thing

but i'm alright, alright, i feel alright
i never been better in my life
you know the score

i'm just fine, i'm fine, feeling fine
a regular sawn off valentine

i hit my head upon the chamber door
and all the marbles rolled on the floor
and all the psychos in the ward start screaming…

i'm alright, alright, i feel alright
i never been better in my life
you know the score

i'm just fine, i'm fine, feeling fine
a regular sawn off valentine
that nothing more

i never been better in my life
you know the score

i'm just fine, i'm fine, feeling fine
a regular sawn off valentine
that nothing more

love song

put away your tears and your sleepy eyes
put away that bullshit
big boys they don't cry to their mama's
she'll be back soon
put away your raincoat and make your bed
take another bullet right to your head
we're going on a picnic and we'll get there soon

she says…maybe it's over
he say's… there's plenty more fish in the sea
i say… don't go away from me…

put away your dinner and have a snack
tie your little brother up in a sack now
we're moving to the country and we'll get there soon (she says)

pack up all the things that you don't deserve
take another swing… where there comes a curve ball
i bet you can't hit it cause you'll swing to soon (yeah)

she says…maybe it's over
he say's… there's plenty more fish in the sea
i say… don't go away…
don't go away
please don't go away from me…

but can you take it too hard
i'll never leave you

take those damn pictures off of that shelf
put away your mama you don't need her
i found you a new one… she'll be here soon

she says…my god it's over
he say's… i found another fish in the sea
i say… why me?
why me?
why me?
why is it me?

you could see
you wore hearts for me
you were sharp
sharp as knives
you were wrong

shot down… said you never had the chance
took a ride on a suicide romance
could have sworn there was somebody home
to facilitate the great unknown
woman, i ain't going to meet you anywhere
don't know where i'm going yet…
but i sure am getting there
shotgun fire… anybody home
i got two dimes in the telephone
alright…
it's not easy tonight

you were bound
you were free
you wear black for me
you were dark
dark as night
you were wrong
you were right

shot down… said you never had the chance
took a ride on a suicide romance
could have sworn there was somebody home
to facilitate the great unknown
but woman, i ain't going to meet you anywhere
don't know where i'm going yet…but i sure am getting there

shotgun fire… anybody home
i got two dimes in the telephone
alright… it's not easy tonight

she's in.
