Try'na Finda Way

I left my heart in San Francisco with some club kids
on a crowded street somewhere
The sky was red and he said,
"would you like to come be a part of my North American Dream?"
I could try to chase life down, down the street and I'd find the separation
of fact and fiction

I'm trynna finda way
I'm trynna finda right
And if I budge I just might
I'm trynna finda way
I'm trynna finda right
And if I budge I just might

I left my conscience somewhere with my rhythm
I heard about it from the mouth of a man
He was hopping some trains and combing the land
Looking for a lover (kiss) planted in the east
Trying to run from the dreaded fist beast
And it lies, it lies in the picket fence call
It was my own paradise with my own private corridor

So I'm dancing to a new beat and it came to me in bed
My veins became a strain of light that I let to flow instead
And a wish came to me like Peter Pan at my window and said
Evolve your destiny child and you'll never walk alone-no
You'll never walk alone, but
Travel to the land of surrender till' you can't cry no more
Till you can't, till you can't
And you'll never walk alone

all this inspiration is passing me by
all I can do is chill when I really wanna fly
and this pollution do nothing but dirty up my mind
faster than forever in the blink of an eye
to see past my lethargy is hard I feign
the beauty of my youth is gone but the chemicals remain

I travel to this land of surrender but I see it's all over me, over and over
again...and I try and I try and I try...an angel on my left side and a devil
on my right..and they fight and they fight and they fight..they're fighting,
they're fighting, they're fighting for my attention...hello? You have my
attention...Do I have your attention?...Can I have your attention
please?...please, you've made such such an impression on me

>>Baby Girl

I’ve seen a man cry
I’ve seen a man die inside
I’ve seen him say to me that he is only mine
That he gotta do what is best for him
Never let me in, not even begin

To tell me I’m the one under his moon and sun
That I am the thing that revolves around him
But while on top of him
I know what’s best for him
I’ll show him how to win
And let me in cuz

1 - I don’t wanna be your baby girl
I don’t wanna be your little pearl
I just wanna be what’s best for me
To be one-da-dum with my own star under my own sun

We’re all sorry now, I didn’t mean to wow
Make you cry like that, it’s just a little spat
Still I want you to know, though I love you so
It’s mostly me dreaming, forcing, believing

That you’re an ideal, hell I never steal

But I stole you from, from another one
So take yourself and wrap around my little finger
Cuz that’s how I think it should swing
Why can’t he see
Why can’t he see
What’s inside of me, yeah

Don’t you, don’t you call me coochie-coo, a little girl now
Don’t you gaga goo no coochie-coo girl now
I’m so much more, can’t you see?
Can’t you see?

Look who’s writing now a token of their love
Can’t you see love that it’s just because
I wanted a cheap way to get inside your head
And not a cheap way to get inside your bed

Oh you’re running now, with that silly one
It’s all over now, this woman’s just begun
Maybe we’ll see about the will and the way
Butterflies return some day

>>Hey Man

Hey, man, don't look so scared
You know I'm only testing you out
Hey man, don't look so angry
You're real close to figuring me out

We are a part of a circle
It's like a mobius strip
And it goes round and round until it loses a link

And there's a shadow in the sky
And it looks like rain, oh oh
And shit is gonna fly once again

Hey, man, we look at each other
With ample eyes and
Why not some time to discover
What's behind your eyes, and
I've got so many questions
That I want to ask you
I am so tired of mirrors
Pour me a glass of your wine

And there's a shadow in the sky
And it looks like rain, oh oh
And shit is gonna fly once again

Ah ah, ah ah
Ah ah, ah ah

I've got a bunch of government cheques at my door
Each morning I try to send them back
But they only send me more
I look at myself in the mirror; am I vital today?
Hey, man, I let my conscience get in the way
Oh no

And there's a shadow in the sky
But it looks like rain, oh oh
And shit is gonna fly once again, oh oh

And I don't mean to rain on your parade
But pathos has got me once again
And I don't want ambivalence
No I don't want ambivalence no more, ah

No I don't want ambivalence
No I don't want ambivalence no more, eh yeah yeah

I said I don't want ambivalence
No I don't want ambivalence no more
No more

I said I don't want ambivalence
No I don't want ambivalence no more
No more

>>I Will Make You Cry

Chuva, chuvinhao
Venh, venh, venh ca, rapaz
Chuva, chuvinhao
Venh, venh ca, rapaz

This is not political, it's just that I, I
Demand attention when I walk into the room
(Venho, venho, venho)
Hey
(Venho, venho, venho)

And it's not that I can't play ball hard, it's just that I don't want to
And the more I think about this pressure love, I don't want you
And I can't have you, and that's what hurts the most
I cannot show you these things I boast
Throw my heart out, keep my head up, I cannot ¤¤¤¤ up cuz

I, I got what you need boy (baby I do)
But I will only cause you pain, yeah (I promise that)
I, I got what you need boy (baby I do)
But I will only bring on the rain, yeah yeah

So I'll prefer to run this road rough around the edges
Good for something but too good to give it to you
You run your own course at your own pace but I just got impatient
See, I wanted to explore

Forsake you, forsook you, abate you, dissipate you
So turn fate around, I believed that I was free of you (not)
I still believe in those days on benches at sunset or the waves in July
Or was it March
We weathered weathers and storms real and imagined, such fragile tenderness
You are truly blessed
I stress this as I blow you this kiss as I blow it in the wind, mwah

I, I got what you need boy (baby I do)
But I will only cause you pain, yeah (I promise that
I, I got what you need boy (baby I do)
But I will only bring on the rain

Chuva, chuvinhao
Venh, venh ca, rapaz

Gonna make you cry
So damn hard
You're gonna curse your drawers and wish you weren't a boy
Gonna make you cry
So damn hard
You're gonna curse your drawers and wish you weren't a boy

I will make you cry
I will make you cry
(Boohoo)

They say time is made of memories
Well I remembered and I'm tired
This is not political
It's just that I remember the fire

Babe you left me with my head held high
And I feigned to be more than I was, didn't I
I thought I could do without sugar love
But this chocolate has turned into sweet bubble gum
Candy is sweet but honey is sweeter
It tastes like the real thing but candy is much much cheaper (cheaper)

I, I got what you need boy (baby I do)
But I will only cause you pain, yeah (I promise that)
I, I got what you need boy (baby I do)
But I will only bring on the rain

(Rain a'fallin' down, rain a'fallin' down, hahahaha)
(Rain a'fallin' down, rain a'fallin' down, hahahaha)
(Rain a'fallin' down, rain a'fallin' down, hahahaha)

Time crying
You'll be crying
I'm sorry I made you cry
I didn't mean to
Let me wipe those tears away
Wipe those tears away
Don't cry baby
It's only rain

>>I'm Like The Bird

You’re beautiful, that’s for sure
You’ll never ever fade
You’re lovely, but it’s not for sure
That I won’t ever change

And though my love is rare
Though my love is true

1 - I’m like a bird, I’ll only fly away
I don’t know where my soul is
I don’t know where my home is
And baby all I need for you to know is

I’m like a bird, I’ll only fly away
I don’t know where my soul is
I don’t know where my home is
All I need for you to know is

Your faith in me brings me to tears
Even after all these years
And it pains me so much to tell
That you don’t know me that well

And though my love is rare
Though my love is true

It’s not that I wanna say goodbye
It’s just that every time you try
To tell me, me that you love me
Each and every single day I know
I’m going to have to eventually give you away

And though my love is rare
And though my love is true, yeah
Hey I’m just scared
That we may fall through
Yeah, yeah yeah, yeah

>>Legend

He wants to be, he wants to be
With everything under the sun
He wants to be, he wants to be
With everything under the sun

And like a legend who rises and then falls
I cannot be his only one

He makes me feel, he makes me feel
Like you used to, whoa
Like you used to
He makes me feel, he makes me feel
Like you used to, whoa
Like you used to

And like a fickle flower when it first sees the light
I cannot show just how I fight
And like a fickle flower when it first sees the light
I cannot show just how I fight

Babe I saw you walking, it was after midnight
Carrying nothing except for a flashlight
You wanted to be Romeo so low at my window
You wanted to be Romeo so low at my window
Will you open the door for me if you believe in chivalry
Will you open the door for me if you believe in chivalry
For I do not think you low though you bow to me so-so
I do not think you low though you bow to me so-so

I know you want to drink from the purest wine, from the purest wine
But the drink is far more sour then you would ever think, think, think, think, think, no

He wants to be, he wants to be
With everything under the sun
And she wants to burn, she wants to burn
Hot like that sun, whoa
Hot like that sun

Just like a legend that rises and then falls
I cannot be his only one
And like a callous, cold, callous woman
She’ll never see what she did done

So like this legend that rises and then falls
I’ll never be his only one

>>Party

Talking to the mirror again but it's not listening
Cleaning my dirty mind like a toilet but it won't give in
Drinking spirits in the hopes that I will find myself one
But all I can rectify is that the party's just begun

Party's just begun
Party's just begun
Party's just begun
Party's just begun

I feel like falling asleep and never waking up
It's not that my glass is empty but I need another cup
When all of the doors around me just shut one by one
I feel like falling asleep but the party's just begun

Shaky shaky steps in the middle of the day
A fire in my path and a cool decay
Of limbs and tooth under my skin
Oh, freedom, where do I begin?
I'm changing my inflection and how I say the words
Maybe it will sound like something they've never heard
Oh, death of the party
I picked up the chalice of malice
And drank till I was full, I drank till I was full
I was thirsty but I drank till I was full,
I drank till I, till I,till I was full

There's a fever in my bones that I know so well
I keep my head low low low to avoid the swell
But it'll be cold in hell, it'll be cold in hell
Before they put me in that chamber
So I'm cleaning up as fast as I can
I'm cleaning up as fast as I can
Cuz you can't unbreak what you break, you can't unfake the very fake
You cannot fuel without a tank,
no you can't unbreak what you break, what you break

>>Turn Off The Lights

It's getting so lonely inside this bed
Don't know if I should lick my wounds or say woe is me instead
There's an aching inside my head
It's telling me I'm better off alone
But after midnight, morning will come
And the day will see if you will get some

They say that girl ya know she act too tough tough tough
Well it's till' I turn off the light, turn off the light
They say that girl you know she act so rough rough rough
Well it's till' I turn off the light, turn off the light
And I say follow me follow me follow me down down down down
till' you see all my dreams
Not everything in this magical world is quite what it seems

I looked above the other day
Cuz I think I'm good and ready for a change
I live my life by the moon
If it's high play it low, if it's harvest go slow and if it's full, then go
But after midnight, morning will come
And the day will see if you're gonna get some
