[instrumental]
				

i remember when we were so young
you embraced my fears and made me strong
never did you actually hold my hand
your silence no one else would understand

did you fall?
did you crawl?
will you open up at all?
did you hear
things you fear?
did i make it clear?

tell me what you're thinking
tell me what you're thinking
tell me what you're feeling inside
tell me what you're thinking
tell me what you're thinking
tell me what you're feeling inside

do you like the clothes she wears today
colliding love affair against a shade
often times i wish she'd speak to me
her holy open book, a world revealed to see

did you fall?
did you crawl?
will you open up at all?
did you hear 
things you fear?
did i make it clear?

tell me what you're thinking
tell me what you're thinking
tell me what you're feeling inside
tell me what you're thinking
tell me what you're thinking
tell me all you're feeling inside

so easy, easier
if you spoke to me
so easy, easier
speak to me

tell me what you're thinking
tell me what you're thinking
tell me what you're feeling inside
tell me what you're thinking
tell me what you're thinking
tell me all you're feeling inside
				

he seems alone and silence
thoughts remain without an answer
afraid and uninvited
he slowly drift away
moved by desire and fear
breaking delicate wings
lifting shadows
off a dream once broken
she can turn a drop of water
into an ocean
as the rain is pouring down
tears of sorrow wash his mind
drifting with the current
this stream of life flows on
he seems alone and silent
waiting on his hands and knees
the chill's of winter's darken sits quietly
moved by desire and fear
he takes a few steps away
lifting shadows
off a dream once broken
she can turn a drop of water
into an ocean
and she listens openly
he pours his soul into the water
reflesting the mystery
she carries him away
and the winds die slowly
lifting shadows
off a dream once broken
she can turn a drop of water
into an ocean
lifting shaws off a dream
				

pink floyd's song

hey you, out there in the cold
getting lonely, getting old
can you feel me?
hey you, standing in the aisles
with itchy feet and fading smiles
can you feel me?
hey you, dont help them to bury the light
don't give in without a fight.
hey you, out there on your own
sitting naked by the phone
would you touch me?
hey you, with you ear against the wall
waiting for someone to call out
would you touch me?
hey you, would you help me to carry the stone?
open your heart, i'm coming home.
but it was only fantasy.
the wall was too high,
as you can see.
no matter how he tried,
he could not break free.
and the worms ate into his brain.
hey you, standing in the road
always doing what you're told,
can you help me?
hey you, out there beyond the wall,
breaking bottles in the hall,
can you help me?
hey you, don't tell me there's no hope at all
together we stand, divided we fall.
				

a question well served
"is silence like a fever ?"
"a voice never heard ?"
"or a message with no receiver ?"
pray they won't ask
behind the stained glass
there's always one more mask
has man been a victim 
of his woman, of his father ?
if he elects not to bother,
will he suffocate their faith ?
desperate to fall
behind the great wall
that separates us all
when there is reason
tonight i'm awake
when there's no answer
arrive the silent man
if there is balance
tonight he's awake
if they have to suffer
there lies the silent man
				

i've got my hands out in front of my face
but i can hardly see
i've bathed myself in holy water
but it doesn't bother me

under my skin, upon my head
inside the walls, beneath my bed
my black and whites are turning red
 
cover my eyes and tell me
am i really blind
cover my eyes and tell me
have i lost my mind

i've got my fingers to the blade
but i can't feel a thing
open my eyes in salty water
but it doesn't even sting 

under my skin, upon my head
stuck in my throat, beneath my breath
my black and whites are turning red
 
cover my eyes and tell me
am i really blind
cover my eyes and tell me
have i lost my mind
have i lost my mind
have i lost my mind

under my skin, upon my head
the lunatic is playing dead
my black and whites are turning red

cover my eyes and tell me
am i really blind
cover my eyes and tell me
have i lost my mind

cover my eyes and tell me
am i really blind
cover my eyes and tell me
have i lost my
have i lost my mind
have i lost my mind
have i lost my mind
				

van halen's song

at night i walk this stinkin' street past the crazies on my block
and i see the same old faces and i hear that same old talk
and i'm searching for the latest thing, a break in this routine
i'm talkin' some new kicks, ones like you ain't never seen
this is home, this is mean street
(this is) yes-ah home, the only one i know

an' we don't worry 'bout tomorrow 'cause we're sick of these four walls
now what you think is nothin' might be somethin' after all
now you know this ain't no through street, the end is dead ahead
the poor folks play for keeps down here, they're the living dead

come on down, (huh! ow!) down (this is) to mean street
they're dancin' now, look! out on mean street
dance baby!

(guitar solo)

it's always here and now my friend, it ain't once upon a time
it's all over but the shouting, i come to take what's mine
we're searchin' for the latest thing, a break in this routine
talkin' some new kicks, ones like you ain't never seen

this is home, (ooh) this is mean street
(this is) yes-ah home, only one i know

(this is home) see, a gun is real easy
(this is mean street) in this desperate part of town
(this is home) turns you from hunted into hunter (yeah)
(this is mean street) you go an' hunt somebody down
wait a minute, ah (this is home) somebody said "fair warning", lord
(this is mean street) lord, strike that poor boy down!
				

elton john's song

when are you gonna come down
when are you going to land
i should have stayed on the farm
i should have listened to my old man

you know you cant hold me forever
i didnt sign up with you
im not a present for your friends to open
this boys too young to be singing the blues

so goodbye yellow brick road
where the dogs of society howl
you cant plant me in your penthouse
im going back to my plough

back to the howling old owl in the woods
hunting the horny back toad
oh ive finally decided my future lies
beyond the yellow brick road

what do you think youll do then
i bet thatll shoot down your plane
itll take you a couple of vodka and tonics
to set you on your feet again

maybe youll get a replacement
theres plenty like me to be found
mongrels who aint got a penny
sniffing for tidbits like you on the ground
				

helpless child
they invite your hands to fill their needs
will you be the same
shameless smile
to steal from you the innocence that bleeds
will they feel your pain

trying to believe
the scars unseen
the tears wash clean
you don't wanna breathe the air you breathe
you don't know how you'll live a life alone

she keeps holding on
holding on to you
let her breathe the air
don't wanna be alone
where do you belong
anna lee

behind those eyes
a vivid scene
a lucid dream within
questioned secrets are revealed
and every time
you can't deny
the lines that trace your skin
wounds that never heal

trying to believe
the scars unseen
the tears wash clean
you don't wanna breathe the air you breathe
you don't know how you'll live a life alone

she keeps holding on
holding on to you
let her breathe the air
don't wanna be alone
where do you belong
anna lee

and now she's calling out a name
can't keep on hiding all her pain
you feel the rain move in
as you begin
to turn and answer the call

trying to believe
the scars unseen
the tears wash clean
you don't wanna breathe the air you breathe
you don't know how you'll live a life alone

she keeps holding on
holding on to you
let her breathe the air
don't wanna be alone
where do you belong
anna lee
				

if i'd started from the top
and worked my way down
there'd be no reason
to live forever
to live forever

the starvation has turned
me outside in
and the wind has blown
me halfway across the world
across the world

why was i born
in an age of distrust
i'd offered some change
for a photograph

it will always stay the same
always be the same

until i show desire for revenge
my heart never once went astray
as long as i have to die in the attempt
then there'd be no reason
to live forever

until i show desire for revenge
as long as i have to die in the attempt
as long as i have to die in the attempt
then there'd be no reason
no reason
no reason
to live forever
to live forever
  'this just in from baghdad... seven patriot missiles
have been spotted above cuba.'

u2's song

if you twist and turn away
if you tear yourself in two again
if i could, yes i would
if i could, i would
let it go
surrender...
dislocate...
if i could throw this
lifeless lifeline to the wind
leave this heart of clay
see you walk, walk away
into the night
and through the rain
into the half-light
and through the flame

if i could through myself
set your spirit free
i'd lead your heart away
see you break, break away
into the light...
and to the day

oooh oooh, oooh oooh, oooh oooh oooh...

to let it go! and so to fade away
to let it go!
and so fade away
i'm wide awake!
i'm wide awake!
wide awake! i'm not sleeping, oh no, no, no...

if you should ask then maybe they'd
tell you what i would say
true colors fly in blue and black
bruised silken sky and burning flag
colors crash, collide in blood shot eyes

oooh oooh, oooh oooh, oooh oooh oooh...

if i could, you know i would
if i could, i would
let it go...

this desparation...
dislocation...
separation...
condemnation...
revelation...
in temptation...
isolation...
desolation...

let it go!
and so fade away
to let it go!
and so fade away
to let it go!
and so to fade away
i'm wide awake!
i'm wide awake!
wide awake!
