Let the winds come in

To then cleanse
your mind and heart

Learn to love the breeze

Seen hundreds and hundreds
and I know exactly why
Tweakers steal and lie
Tweakers cry
and Tweakers die

Brain fried
and barely alive
Always Jonesen'
to get another high
Just another day
in a ****-Head life

Beautiful girls
too soon turned
old and decrepit
Yeah we know
your sick
and you say
you can't help it

Sell their soul
and their body as well
Just another **** day
in Tweakers Hell

You stand up and say
then what is the cure?
Nobody knows
but death will do.

What was She like
How did She look
Was it a wonder
for all of your dreams
to come true?

Yes.

Her hair was golden
Her face as an Angel
Her heaven sent smile

The touch of Her love
was the moment
She saved me
in time

Will you once again see Her
To again touch Her hand
To look in Her eyes

Do you think
She still is the same?

No.

Time is not kind
to Angels who fall
The ageless
beautiful loyalty
She once wore
is gone

And spent cheaply
For Her own
personal war

So then what can I say
and what's to be said
My once precious Darling
is now but not forever...
no more

For in Heaven
again unto me...

Will She then again
be restored

Someday

Of that I am
certainly sure.

Daughter never
ever fall in love
with a music man

For he will sing
your songs
of hope and love

He will steal
your heart and
he will hold
you close

He will show you
places you never
would know

Remember Daughter
Never fall in love
with a music man

But if you do
you must never
ever let go.

Thinkin' 'bout
leavin' here today
Packin' my pickup
and rollin' away
Giddiup Go
get outta' your way
Thinkin' 'bout
leavin' here today

Before you leave
you best think it over
'cause when you leave
you know your gone
Think you'll leave your
troubles behind you
but when you leave
your problems ride along

Darlin' you know
that I love you
for all time
and forever more
But I can't just sit
in the darkness cryin'
prayin' your love will
shine once more

So I'll just get up
and leave it all behind
get out there
and see what I find
Ask the Lord
to be my guide
every step
and every mile
Maybe I'll find
my baby's love
in God's good time

Thinkin' 'bout leavin'
here today
Packin' my pickup
and rollin' away
Giddiup Go
get outta' your way
Thinkin' 'bout leavin'
here today

When you smile
the world smiles
with you
Frown and moan
your on your own
When you shed
your tears of sorrow
Honest and true
You know the Good Lord
He's lookin' on

Thinkin' 'bout leavin'
here today
Packin' my pickup
and rollin'  away
Giddiup Go
get outta' your way
Thinkin' 'bout leavin' here today.

Good Lord willin'
and the creeks don't rise.

I would ride all night
on a broken down mule
To be with you
once again

I would walk on glass
through the desert
If it would
alleviate the pain

I would crawl
across the mountains
If I could you
as you were
again regain

I would swim
the entire ocean
For you to know
my love will still
forever be true

Still nothing
brings any solace
Except the company
of someone who doesn't
always remind me
of you.

Scatter My ashes
in a forgotten creek
For it is not there
that I will sleep

Trample my dust
underneath your feet
With boots made of leather
by those who will keep

Return what of me
is still then left here below
Unto the earth from there
where I once did come

For I will
by the Grace of God
Be in that faraway place
Where all and everything
there is Love.

Don't you go running
with the scurvy dog fools
Or you will become
A scurvy dog too

Don't go running
with the beasts
of the fields
Or there will be
a bigger beast
waiting for you

The big bad wolf
He's been knocking
on your door
Looking for
another fool
that He may
soon devour

You thought
you could escape
the evil clutches
that now ensnare
But the devil done
got another **** fool

Laughing and unaware

For your eyes
now in death
have a cold
and glassy stare.
