Pain Lies On The Riverside
]: AmDm :[
AmDm
I have never taken life
AmDm
Yet I have often paid the price
AmDm
And you, you are a victim of this age
Am
And the guilt that hangs around your neck
Dm
Has got me locked up in a cage
FGAm
You've got to learn to live until no end
FGE
But first you must learn to swim all over again
AmDm
Because pain lies on the riverside
AmDm
And pain will never say goodbye
AmDm
Pain lies on the riverside
EFG
So put your head in the water
EFG
Put your soul in the water
Am
And join me for a swim tonight
I have forever always tried
To stay clean and constantly baptized
I am aware now that the river's banks are dry
And to wait for a flood
Is to wait for life
I've got to learn...

Heard a lot of talk about the ocean
EmD
Heard a lot of talk about the sea
EmD
Heard a lot of talk about a lot of things
EmD
Never meant that much to me
EmD
Heard a lot of talk about my spirit
EmD
Heard a lot of talk about my soul

But I decided that anxiety and pain
Ken je een betere of completere versie? Stuur 'm in
man of love, a man of strength
But what a man was two thousand years ago
Means nothing at all to me today
He could have been telling me about my higher self
But he only lives inside my prayer
So what he was may have been beautiful
But the pain is right now and right here
Let it go...
Beauty Of Gray

We will all get to appreciate the beauty of gray
If I told you that she was your mother
We could analyze the situation and be gone
If I said you ought to give her some of your water
Your eyes would light up like the dawn
This perception that divides you from her...
We will all get to appreciate...

Look into your eyes
No daylight
New day now
This is not...

And if I don't know who to kill I kill myself instead
>From the mouth of a baby
Will come the world saving words
That will save us all
And from the lungs of a child
Will come the everlasting breath of God
Increasing peace and honesty
And not carrying on despite of me
Don't you know, this ain't about no race, no creed
No race, no creed
And it's as simple as that you see
And if I don't know who to love I love them all
And if I don't know who to trust I trust them all
And if I don't know who to kill no suicide
I'm already dead

Intro (4x) Under 1st verse (4x)
You say "hold on to the reigns"
I say "let them go tonight"
My brain waves
Confused between what is and ain't
She cries "groundless and free"

That she cried "groundless and free"
Tired of the water...

I know that I should think about giving
And think about helping out and think about
Think about living
But I can't seem to rescue myself (2x)

And they keep me happy and warm inside
So I said unto this man who are you
And where do you come from
And he proceeded to tell me many things
But I said nothing at all
For the flower in the corner by the room
In the window and the sun
Said it all
But what about...
Free my son
What do you say to the man
Who treats her like a mother
And what do you say to the man
Who treats him like a father
Come and see my heart
Come inside and learn
Come and see my soul, it's like yours
I say it's just like yours
Who is making over
Idolizing princes
Banishing the dreamers
With barbed wire fences
And telling all the children who run to her feet
That they have no vision and love's all diseased
Free my son
Take My Anthem
--------------
War in me
War overseas
There ain't no difference between
Take it away
Hands on me
Hands overseas
There ain't no difference between
Heart in me
Heart overseas
There ain't no difference between
You Are The World

He said, he said, he said
There was nothing to fear boy
He said, he said, he said
Worthless are your tears boy
Just realize your senses
And realize your earth
Just realize your essence first
Of the bloodstains on our peaceful sidewalks
You say the buildings are too tall
They're going to fry your brother
Well I say you'd better walk away
And find your mother
No more bitterweet
No more good pain
If I can't sing this song
And tell you all about it
Then I'll just pack it up right now and walk away
Don't even doubt it
So when our sherry glass is full
And the day is way too young
You'd better sip today before it's gone
No more bitterweet
No more good pain
Hey man you're all that I have
Me, Myself, Myself and I
Were born to work and born to die
I have chosen my anthems of these I am proud
Portraits of a divided crowd
Talk to me now...
Could you leave it behind...
War, disease and famine this demon she is everywhere
Poets and preachers and politicians
They've all had their say
And we got 10,000 years devoted
To nothing but tomorrow and yesterday
Peace is now
Mr. President I hereby pardon you for your crimes
For they are just as much mine
Selfishness and seperation have led me to believe
That the world is not my problem
The world is not my problem
I am the world
And you are the world
