I wanna live up above the clouds Spending all my days breathing in what's not allowed And keep it going till we hit the ground Getting lost in all we've found Going round and round We're going round and round Till we're upside down Going round and round You ask me can I cut you some slack Yeah, you've been off the radar and you ain't coming back Again at least until next year Just tell me when you're coming and I'll meet you here Or around I wanna sing but you won't let me speak You want an empire of Jesus freaks You've got misinformation, some of it leaks So be careful not to fall when you're at your peak Be careful not to fall when it gets too steep, you'll go down And go round and round

Jaded 03:03
I can tell by the way that you walk I can hear it in the way that you talk The way that you carry yourself You think you're better than anyone else You're so jaded Completely separated You're so jaded You just can't face it The moment that you get out of bed You let it all go to your head You make yourself up so cool But I know that you're the fool You've got the finest clothes You've got a face that everyone knows You put yourself up so high Just to get into the public eye

You tell me that you wanna love me You act as if you're so above me So tell me what you wanna do To get back what you had Did it make you feel so good To make them all so bad I got no worries in the sunlight I got no worries in the rain I got no worries in the starbright I'm just trying to rack my brain You tell me I'm your four-leaf clover One that you overlooked before So tell me who you gonna pick And who you gonna pluck Pretty soon you might get licked You know you're running out of luck

Three feet from Sunday As I reach out my hand The most I've got hope for Is a chance to understand She tells me not to worry I've done more than any man Now I'm left here wondering Why Sunday changed the plan Sunday left one night Sunday set things right Sunday left one night Sunday took a drive Sunday left one night Sunday set things right Sunday left one night Sunday went for a ride Monday morning brought the news That Sunday wasn't there She'd gone out and left us No one knew she dared Still I couldn't blame her For wanting some control Just once I wish that Sunday let it show As I see her down the road And my blue skies fade away I take my first step forward Till we meet again halfway

Post Thanks 05:01
People say that I'm crazy And that I'm falling out of touch They say my days are lazy And that my nights are just too much And I got no destination But I'm driving just the same And I got no hesitation To look for someone else to blame And I'm riding the waves from beach to beach Making jumps at the stars that seem far out of reach And it's not easy to see and no more easily found That when you're high as a kite You can only come down I've got a million lives to choose from And only one of them is right A million places to call my home How does this one feel tonight For all the battles I've been in And fighting all my wars For all the saints who are sinning And just want to settle scores And for all of the bums making waves on the beach Making jumps at the stars that seem far out of reach And it's not easy to see and no more easily found That when you're high as a kite You can only come down
