Where fashion can't find them<br />
A little corner where their face<br />
Is not distorted with pretense<br />
<br />
Disappear without a trace<br />
Someone else will dig the dead's grave<br />
Everybody needs a place<br />
Green and quiet in the sun<br />

Running aground seems easiest<br />
<br />
Treading around in salty streams<br />
Throwing a line to drowning dreams<br />

7 O'Clock is a dog's ragdoll<br />
Her face is calm but she's lost control<br />
<br />
Everyone's home but no lights are on<br />
You can't force a fire when the spark is gone<br />
<br />
Wind in the billows: smoke everywhere<br />

At the bad things<br />
Borne on the wings<br />
Of the loose twists and ruthless turns<br />
Of fact, truth and tact you've put to good use<br />
Yeah right,<br />
Right<br />
Wrong<br />
<br />
Too many times<br />
Two rights<br />
Make a wrong<br />
<br />
Each hard word said is a scar on your heart<br />
And your head's the part<br />
That starts the end<br />
Of the best of friends<br />
Amends immense<br />
And your pride stands tall and high and hard as a Jericho wall<br />
You think in time<br />
The other wall<br />
will fall<br />
<br />
'Til then it's just right,<br />
Right, left<br />
Right, right, left<br />
Right<br />
Right<br />
Wrong<br />
<br />
Too many times<br />
Two rights<br />
Make a wrong<br />

Rendered Caesar's unto Caesar<br />
Every other part I give to you<br />
Take it<br />
Please save it<br />
<br />
If I wake before I die<br />
I pray the Lord my steps to guide<br />
And if I touch the spotty thing<br />
I pray dear Lord please wash my clothing<br />
<br />
It's not easy being green<br />
Green and tender for the bruising<br />
But tender's what you need<br />
To mould me<br />
Please mould me<br />
<br />
If I wake before I die<br />
I pray the Lord my steps to guide<br />
And if I touch the spotty thing<br />
I pray dear Lord please wash my clothing<br />
<br />
I had a friend in apathy<br />
He tried to smother my intention<br />
I slit his throat while he was sleeping<br />
He would have done the same to me<br />
Goodnight apathy<br />
<br />
If I wake before I die<br />
I pray the Lord my steps to guide<br />
And if I touch the spotty thing<br />
I pray dear Lord please wash my clothing<br />

Of their tongues pin me<br />
And the hammers<br />
Of their blunt words nail me<br />
The bellows<br />
Of their empty wisdom wail against me<br />
<br />
But in you I have peace<br />
The shade upon my right hand<br />
<br />
Friend, friend, friend<br />
Friend? Liar<br />
They say love, love<br />
Could you blaspheme the name of any higher?<br />
And the dove, the dove<br />
Is just a gentle white bird<br />
<br />
But in you I have peace<br />
My brother and my keeper<br />
<br />
When everytime I try to smile<br />
Facepaint and pantomime<br />
When everytime I try to fly<br />
Redtape and razorwire<br />
When the bird on the wing<br />
Is such a foreign thing<br />
<br />
In you I have peace<br />
My brother and my keeper<br />
The shade upon my right hand<br />
<br />

Wind on my back, sun on my face<br />
It's a nice one<br />
To keep it to myself<br />
In my lap<br />
Golden platter, silver spoon, the gravy train stops right outside my room<br />
But that's not the track<br />
To anywhere I want to be<br />
<br />
Take a living coal<br />
From off your altar<br />
Purge my lips til they speak<br />
The good things<br />
<br />
Bring all your broken, mistreated and bruised<br />
O taste and see, The Lord is good<br />
<br />
I'm the one<br />
The sun shines on<br />
I got everything you want<br />
But I count it all as dung<br />
Save the freedom that Jesus won<br />
And that's the track<br />
To everywhere I want to be<br />
<br />
Take a living coal<br />
From off your altar<br />
Purge my lips til they speak<br />
The good things<br />
<br />
Bring all your broken, mistreated and bruised<br />
O taste and see, The Lord is good<br />
Bring all your lame; they'll walk, the blind will see again<br />

Don't let them open<br />
'Til it's time to rise<br />
Time to see the sunlight<br />
<br />
Don't let the world<br />
Trouble you none<br />
Don't let it weigh<br />
Heavy upon you<br />
The evil today<br />
Is enough for you now<br />
And the good gifts of God<br />
Cannot be traded<br />
<br />
Drop your plans<br />
Sink to the bottom<br />
The wheel rolls unmanned<br />
The sails rest while she's mooring<br />
<br />
Wait for the wind<br />
That speaks peace within<br />
The spinnaker sags<br />
Without her lover<br />
The treasure you seek<br />
Will find its own wings<br />
And fields white as gold<br />
Are yours in the morning<br />
<br />
Close your eyes<br />
Don't let them open<br />
'Til it's time to rise<br />
Time to see the sunlight<br />
<br />
Don't let the world<br />
Trouble you none<br />
Don't let it weigh<br />
Heavy upon you<br />
The evil today<br />
Is enough for you now<br />
And the good gifts of God<br />
Will greet you unfaded<br />

cos I don't wanna be<br />
the last man standing<br />
Save the whales, save the refugees<br />
save a place for me<br />
under ground zero's shady tree<br />
<br />
Jesus come quickly<br />
the bell tolls for everybody else<br />
Lord, make it swiftly<br />
The whole world's gone to hell<br />
There's tears on every corner<br />
<br />
Brother, throw my guns to the ground<br />
cos I don't wanna be found<br />
the last man standing<br />
Mama take these badges from me<br />
cos I don't wanna see<br />
another cause up in mirrors and smoke<br />
<br />
Jesus come quickly<br />
the bell tolls for everybody else<br />
Lord make it swiftly<br />
The whole world's gone to hell<br />
There's tears on every corner<br />
<br />
Give me a heart of flesh, a face of flint<br />
if you want me to be<br />
the last man standing<br />
Give me words I won't repent<br />
if you want me to be<br />
the last man standing<br />
<br />
Jesus come quickly<br />
the bell tolls for everybody else<br />
Lord make it swiftly<br />
The whole world's gone to hell<br />
Hope is a candle in a cyclone<br />

When green pastures are my food<br />
Nought to prove. Nought to show<br />
I want to be ready<br />
to go<br />
<br />
When the rivers overflow<br />
When the dams have all let go<br />
There's nothing stable left to hold<br />
I want to be ready<br />
to let go<br />
<br />
There's a storm on my horizon<br />
It's greater than this vessel can bear<br />
So my mustard seed of faith is in<br />
someone who's been there<br />
<br />
When the heavens overflow<br />
When four angels have let go<br />
When the fire hits the ground<br />
I want to be ready<br />
to be found<br />
<br />
When the bridegroom takes His bride<br />
I want to be ready<br />
to rise<br />

for I know not what I do<br />
The things I ought<br />
just seem to haunt<br />
I do the things<br />
that I don't really want to<br />
<br />
You seem to have it all together<br />
I know that's just the pot<br />
calling the kettle white<br />
<br />
My heart gets cracked and hard<br />
like the dust from which it came<br />
Nothin' grows<br />
in a dry furrow<br />
I cut you down<br />
before I even see you<br />
<br />
You seem to float like life is light as a feather<br />
I know that's just a weight<br />
to sink us both<br />
<br />
I got a friend in Jesus<br />
and I know He's your man<br />
He built a bridge between us<br />
I burnt it a bit<br />
I didn't really mean to<br />
<br />
He said to love your neighbor<br />
And I know who that means, too<br />
He dug a quiet harbor<br />
I'm glad it's you<br />
Would you let me be one too<br />
<br />
I'll see you rise just like mist on the water<br />
I know that's something I'd<br />
like to do with you<br />
<br />

and a little pea-green boat and she is safe inside<br />
White parasol and dress and shady ladies hat<br />
My perfect pretty as a picture pussycat<br />
<br />
The owl laid lazy on a nearby bank and sing<br />
hoping pussycat might bring her bow up next to him<br />
Pussy said to owl "would you please gently rock my boat<br />
You see there's room for two and you just set my heart afloat"<br />
