1. _ Wheel Of Broken Voice
silence and rage
the scars of a daughter
he gave me the knife
i held it in deep water
together we make the perfect question
there's never enough to go around
it's a cup with a hole and the love pours on the ground
wheel of the broken voice
talking to you hearing another
past covers truth and watches it smother

2. _ Same Changes
the camera angles and the name campaigns
the stare cuts and the latest extremes
the way we sell ourselves they way we spend our greed
how long it takes hear our dreams
circle of change the world around you
the same changes
hold on to the voice inside you
the same changes
the borders and the flags how far our guns can shoot
fascist slogans and the movie of the week
popular opinions cars that drive you mad
what they pass assassins and a lucky streak
how much time is wasted how much time is left
what to censor
what to read
how hot the sun burns
what does love require
how we run from the things we need

3. _ Circle Of Fire
i saw you standing there alone
i wondered if you wanted what you owned
your magin ladders in the sky
tie you to the place where angels fight
our madness envy and desire
ring you with an unforgiving fire
you love them with a burning soul
by the time he sold the ashes they were cold
fingers crying for you
sleeping on your doorstep for the proof
welove ghosts we want to see through
the blood and bones that hide us from the truth
you circle the city from the sky
watching children swallowing your lies
it breaks you but you will never fall
you've learned that love is greater than it all

4. _ Signposts
i got myself so tightly wound i couldn't breathe
i could feel the fire burning underneath
i wanted to get lost and love the questions there
beauty and the truth i could breathe like air
then i finally found the signposts in a strange land
logic dances you from here to there not very far
making sense can't tell where you are

5. _ Love And Kisses
pictures steal our memories
turn our minds to salt
history is written to say it wasn't our fault, wasn't our fault
send us all your love and kisses
come and join the dream that never ends
god will grant us all our wishes
martinis and bikinis for our friends

6. _ Black Sky
the trees are listening each time a missile's made
they hide three mystics the earth sends from her grave
to tell us the future has been stolen away
by diggers, drillers and sellers
but we won't stop 'till we're under a black sky
he took my picture int he cemetery sun
my body was tempted to crumble into one
reunion of dust until creation's done
returning ashes to ashes
we won't stop 'till we're underneath a black sky
the commerce the intrigue
self-slaughtered souls cry out to dead poor men
for a drink at the water hole
but their tongues will burn dry
as the day they were sold for
forests raped into deserts
we won't stop 'till we're underneath a black sky

7. _ Strawberry Road
shotgun alleys with lightning flowers
under the eyes of fallen statues
dry blood they've never seen
pain is sharper when i suspecy
that true love runs looking for us
like a lion in our dreams
the strawberry road
where the dream fades
is down between our longing and desire
the strawberry road
there our hearts break into love
you censor longing and organize beauty
because you're afraid
you want it more than oxygen or light
you can't get there with your morals
or without love
lie down with me
the rules aren't always right
call it romance or nostalgia
this hunder behind our memories
we've buried it in code
the things we've wanted
when we get them are never enough
never what they seem
but they lead us to the road

8. _ Same Rain
i went to the sun it was too hot
i went to the moon it was too cold
went to the mountain it was too young
went to the ocean it was too old
is it the same rain that falls on a holy man
is it the same rain that falls on a liar's hand
is it the same rain that falls on me
i knew a man a refugee survival was his art
all that he held valuable he carried in his heart
is it the same rain that falls on the mountain's face
is it the same rain that falls on the prison gate
is it the same rain that falls on me
all the money in the world all the power it can buy
will not take your voice away
cannot own what you hold inside
is it the same rain that falls on a poor man's room
is it the same rain that falls on a rich man's tomb
is it the same rain that falls on me
is it the same rain that falls on the raging see
is it the same rain that falls on the hanging tree
is it the same rain that falls on me

9. _ When I Fall
we don't want lives of steel
we don't want hearts that feel
we want to live above it all
i feel you closing in
a target on my skin
i think you'll be there when i fall
we might get out of time
we might connect our minds
we might land beyond the wall when i fall
i might give love to you
i might step right on through
fear might keep me from it all
i climb so high to see
but the ground just teases me
i think you'll be there when i fall
i'm burning
when i fall
i fall
when i fall
i'm amazed by it all
control is letting go
and i'm the last to know
we might land beyond the wall
i might give love to you
i might step right on through
i think you'll be there when i fall

10. _ I Need Love
i left my conscience like a crying child
locked the door behind me put the pain on file
broken like a window i see my blindness now
i need love
not some sentimental prison
i need god
not the political church
i need fire
to melt the frozen sea inside me
i need love
driving into town tired and depressed
like a flare the streetlight bursts into an s.o.s.
peace comes to my rescue i don't know what it means
i need love

11. _ Fighting With Fire
he wants to keep in contact
he wants to buy the things he doesn't understand
he wants all the credit
he wants the rights to the soul of every man
i'm not above him but i want to go
down below the surface where he lives
fighting with fire
money's the only thing he has
he wants to get down to business
it's a long way down
but he'll go the extra mile
i wonder when all this started
who left him empty hearted when he was a child

12. _ Baby I Can't Please You
baby i can't please you i can't please you
every time you start to critize
i can see the misery in your eyes
you say i make your pain
you're trying to turn the blame all around you
you take the words i say and make them mean
everything they don't baby youre obscene
you don't listen you don't hear
you're blinded by the fear that surrounds you
i know you say love when you mean control
you buy the truth and your heart is cold
so you live in shadows
you try to tell the world how it should spin
but you live in terror with the hollow men
who stun you with their lies
with fever in their eyes as they drown you
