This old Joshua tree will pray for me when I am dead and gone
And you will pawn my rings away and go and stay with John
I looked at you in my last breath but you didn't listen to what I said
You left me by myself to die alone in my bed
I crawled inside my head that night and looked for my God
I screamed as I lost my way, got lost in the fog
I followed the sound of howling dogs they lead me somewhere new
Somewhere where I knew at last, I knew thst you weren't true
The faires caught me before I died and said to me thus
"We know a way for you to fly you just need some trust"
I had little choice and in my weakest voice said "Show me what you got"
They took me by the hand and dragged me to a parking lot
They laid me out upon the ground and took my bounds from me
They tore the teeth out from my mouth and now I cannot see
They pried the nails from my fingers and toes and i never saw them again
And now I am half a man, it's where the fun began
They told me of a town they found marching east about a day
Maybe I would meet my mind somehwere along the way
But that's by the by as here I lie as I'm sure you knew
I couldn't slip a thing past you, new dogs old tricks

Tomorrow we can solve all the world's problems
But tonight we can disappear into the music
Together in another world
Tonight we can disappear into each other's arms
Dont worry, it's only bleeding because it's alive
And tomorrow we can solve all our problems
But tonight we can disappear
Together

The story of a prisoner, free in every way
Recall the most average book never written:
I feel like a millionaire without a penny to my name
I wrote my dreadful name in pen for a penny dreadful
But my name is mud and all the stories were lies
I earned my daily bread baking for a butcher
Cutting meat for a candle stick maker
And brightening up the baker's day
But I soon became a vagrant
Invalidated, I'm now an invalid, not involved with the institutions
I got as high as I was low
I could fly like a mole
Such a lovely view i couldn't focus on, it was so ugly
Dancing perfectly still, screaming at the birds as they sing
But they mocked me for not speaking out
I became an alcoholic, I was drinking on social occasions
T-total ****** I took my sleeping pills
My family got worried when I started talking to people and came out my room again
When I ate an apple
It wasn't me. Or maybe that was me
I found a new hobby that I ever did
I'm the best you've ever seen
I'm worse than you could imagine
My self esteem is as low as it is high
And as high as it is low
I've been through more than 12 trials
I passed everyone with a U
They made me fearless and fearful
Of nothing
The milkman comes too late it scares me
But I soon pulled myself together into pieces
I became a champion pub fighter
Laying the gutter every night, the belt raised above my head
Champion of the world
Hanging high above the rest
I remember everything that's ever happened to me
But I can't remember,
No matter how hard I try, where I've come from
I hate you and all your friends
But please, I beg you, never leave me
I got lost on the straight and narrow
I knew the winding paths like my ancestral home
Somewhere I belong, I was never welcome either way
I've studied the charts, I know the road ahead
But I've no idea where in going
I've never said an honest word in my life
And I promise that on my honour
I found a loop hole in the contract that gave me no advantage
And I used it to better myself
I took my chances
Breaking down the lies I promised I'd tell
To make everything alright in the eyes of the many
Too few saw my meaning
They read between the lines and saw only blank space
It was a colouring book but I forgot the instruction
They did as they were told
And nothing
Was true
In the eye of the few
We saw it all
But it was so lonely
It was just me
I saw who I could be
I could only see me
Who is he?

Pick up and take off
Hey little bird flyaway home
Home where you belong
Hey Little bird flyaway free
Pick a place and take it
Hey Little bird flyaway stray
Stray stowaway to somewhere new
Hey Little bird flyaway free
Pick away and take away
Hey Little bird flyaway
Away from yourself
Hey Little bird flyaway
