Naked
I am not insane but,
I am only speaking the truth;
I an not insane but,
Of the strong-winds that blow us about;
Why should you walk naked at the market place?

Insane
Somebody told me it was over
Nobody told me where it began
No one believes in you
I understand
Like a blind man
Whos lost his way
No one hears a word
Of what you say
I forgive you
Would you do the same
I would believe you
If only youd be true
I would believe if it were true
Cause everybody wants to be a winner
Nobody wants to lose their game
Its the same for me
Its the same for you
Its insane insane insane insane insane
Insane insane insane insane insane insane
I dont know where youve been looking
I think its only in your mind
Its tied so tight inside of you
All the thoughts unkind
I would believe you
If only youd be true
I would believe if it were true
Cause everybody wants to be a winner
Nobody wants to lose their game
Its the same for me
Its the same for you
Its insane insane insane insane insane
Insane insane insane insane insane
Insane
I would believe you
If only youd be true
Im getting older
And I cant escape time
Cause everybody wants to be a winner
Nobody wants to lose their game
Its the same for me
Its the same for you
Its insane insane insane insane insane
Insane insane insane
Cause everybody wants to be a winner
Nobody wants to lose their game
Its the same or me
Its the same for you
Its insane insane insane insane insane
Insane insane insane insane insane insane

Don't You Want To Be There
Don't you want to be there, don't you want to go?
Where the light is breaking and the cold clear winds blow
Don't you want to be there in the golden glow
Don't you want to be there, don't you want to fly?
With your arms out, let a shout take you across the sky
Don't you want to be there when the time's gone by
Times there was love all around you
Times you were strong and alone
Times you believed love had found you
And you fell through time like a stone
And those you have wronged, you know
You need to let them know some way
And those who have wronged you, know
You'll have to let them go someday
Don't you want to be there?
Don't you want to cry when you see how far
You've got to go to be where forgiveness rules
Instead of where you are
Don't you want to be there, don't you want to know?
Where the grace and simple truth of childhood go
Don't you want to be there when the trumpets blow
Blow for those born into hunger
Blow for those lost 'neath the train
Blow for those choking in anger
Blow for those driven insane
And those you have wronged, you know
You need to let them know some way
And those who have wronged you, know
You'll have to let them go someday
Don't you want to be there?
Don't you want to see where the angels appear
Don't you want to be where there's strength and love
In the place of fear

Am I Going Insane
Everybody's looking at me, feeling paranoid inside
When i step outside i feel free, think i'll find a place to hide
Tell me people, am i going insane?
Tell me people, am i going insane?
Every day i sit and wonder how my life it used to be
Now i feel like going under, now my life is hard to see
So tell me people, am i going insane?
Tell me people, am i going insane?
So i'm telling all you people, listen while i sing again
If i don't sound very cheerful, i think that i'm a schizophren
So tell me people, am i going insane?
Tell me people, am i going insane?

Our society is run by insane people for insane objectives. I think we're being run by maniacs for maniacal ends and I think I'm liable to be put away as insane for expressing that. That's what's insane about it.

Portrait Of Louise
Summers come and summers go
But I still need the rain
All your vines will overgrow
and winds will blow insane
But I'm not goin' to move
And I won't make you cry
You can shelter in my home
And I won't ask you why
Friends will come and friends will go
But you stay on my train
All your wines will overflow
As winds will blow insane
But I'm not goin' to move
And I won't make you cry
You can shelter in my home
And I won't ask you why
You can shelter in my home
And I won't ask you why

Lets Get This Party Started
When its crying
Take me on second place
Which you dont often find
I see a family walking
Always thinking of
Being somewhere else in time
So I fall I fall face
In a rut
I cant seem to get out of
Please wake me
Please give me some of it back
The feelings I had
Sometimes I wish
I could be strong like you
It doesnt matter
Each time I wake
Im somehow feeling the truth
I cant handle
Lets get this party started
Im sick of begging you
You make me feel insane
Which I did to you
Lets get this party started
You make me feel insane
I want to be the one
To make myself sign
Time is ticking
It makes me feel content
With what I have inside
Constant paranoia
Surrounds me
Everyone I see
Is out to get me
So I fall I fall face
In a rut
I cant seem to get out of
Please wake me
Please give me some of it back
The feelings I had
Sometimes I wish
I could be strong like you
It doesnt matter
Each time I wake
Im somehow feeling the truth
I cant handle
Lets get this party started
Im sick of begging you
You make me feel insane
Which I did to you
Lets get this party started
You make me feel insane
I want to be the one
To make myself sign
You make me feel insane
Sometimes I wish
I could be strong like you
It doesnt matter
Each time I wake
Im somehow feeling the truth
I cant handle
Lets get this party started
Im sick of begging you
You make me feel insane
Which I did to you
Lets get this party started
You make me feel insane
I want to be the one
To make myself sign

Mary Pretends
Mary pretends shes so insane, so insane, so insane
Mary pretends shes so insane, so insane, so insane
She just sits back and laughs at the pain
Laughs at the pain, laughs at the pain
Mary pretends shes so insane, so insane, so insane
Falling down of her mind
Gives her everything shes wanted from the world
Close her eyes, drift inside, so alive
She wants to know what it feels like
She wants to know what it feels like to fly
She wants to know what it feels like to die
Goodbye

I Don't Want You Anyway
Keep my CD's and books cos my taste has changed anyway
Leave your worries and troubles behind
With the keys to my place
You say that I'll worry
And I can't let you go before
Before I go insane don't need you to explain
Don't want your sympathy gotta tell you finally
Before you walk away there's something I need to say
I didn't want you anyway
I didn't want you anyway
Each step was a little bit further away from
What we never had
You can kid yourself but oh brother
Can't you see that you're just makin' me mad
You say that you're sorry
It doesn't work anymore before
Before I go insane don't need you to explain
Don't want your sympathy gotta tell you finally
Before you walk away there's something I need to say
I didn't want you anyway
I didn't want you anyway
Keep my CD's and books cos my taste has changed anyway
Before I go insane don't need you to explain
Don't want your sympathy gotta tell you finally
Before you walk away there's something I need to say
I didn't want you anyway
I didn't want you anyway
Before I go insane don't need you to explain
Don't want your sympathy gotta tell you finally
Before you walk away there's something I need to say
I didn't want you anyway
I didn't want you anyway

Daydream
La, la, la, la, yeah
La, la, la la
I could have been the one you noticed
I could have been all over you
I could have been like all the others
Is that what I'm supposed to do?
It would have been really stupid
If I would have went home with you
To give you everything you wanted
It would've been way too soon
I try to be sensitive
I try to be tough
I try to walk away
I try to be innocent
I try to be rough
But I just wanna play-y
You're my daydream
And I've been thinking about you late-ly
And everytime I look at you I can't explain
I feel insane
I can't get away
You're my daydream
And you know, and you know, and you know, and you know
You're making me insane
And you know, and you know, and you know, and you know
You're doing it again
And you know, and you know, and you know, and you know
You're making me insane
And you know, and you know, and you know, and you know
You're doing it again...

Absolutely Bills Mood
I was born in a lighthouse, my mother was the sea
I crawled to school each morning, when it occured to me
That lifes just a mood ring were not allowed to see
And this is what it said to me
My room is comfortably small
With rubber lining the walls
And theres someone always calling my name
He calls when Im alone
And he calls when Im not home
And he calls when Im stuck out in the rain
Im insane
Im insane
Im insane
Im insane
Now listen all you swingers, dont you try to tag along
I know monkey see, but monkeys dead, for you it would be wrong
Put a dime in my jukebox, youll only hear this song
And it wont be fun for long
Because my room is comfortably small
With rubber lining the walls
And theres someone always calling my name
He calls when Im alone
And he calls when Im not home
And he calls when Im stuck out in the rain
Im insane
Im insane
Im insane
Im insane
Thank you
Thank you
My room is comfortably small
With rubber lining the walls
And theres someone always calling my name
He calls when Im alone
And he calls when Im not home
And he calls when Im stuck out in the rain
Im insane
Im insane
Im insane
Im insane

Love flue
Love flue
Rivers flow winds blow
Upon the soil, high and low
But she drenches
Her dress and swollen her eyes
Wind dries her face
She is restless
Suffering from a disease
She opens her eyes
Sees the big stars and cry
She looks her palms
And murmurs something and parts her lips
Believe me
Near there is no one
Yet she has gone insane
Sometimes
She looks at me and smiles
Hey! Baby, 'what has gone wrong? ‘
She says, "You can not understand? '
In my way wondering
I Keep my head scratching
I wish
If I were enough intelligent
And know the reason why she is so insane

Naked
'my family, my friends, my children, my wife...'
Have you ever tried to strip naked
i mean from body to soul
'my job, my country, my school...'
Have you ever tried to go naked
for the winds to blow and the sun to scotch
'my God, my religion, my pastor/preacher...'
you've got to try being naked
to lay out your thoughts and meet the truth
The world and all it's dwellings could belong
but try going naked for a day
and visit the realms of greatness
This is not madness but sadness
with which i beseech you to strip naked
and find the truth we've all missed
strip naked: put off the cloth of pretense
move out of the darkness of illusion
and come where naked, where the light shines.

I try
I try to let go but the pull is so strong, I try to hold on but it feels so wrong.
I try to grasp you but you are slipping away, I try to go on but am forced to stay Hey… Let me walk away I shad to many tears, I fought hard still I have to face my fears.
I try to forget that face; try to run away from this place…
Ooh your body, perfectly shaped it drives me insane again and again, did I mention you drive me insane oh yes I did, but had to mention it again.
But Now I’m sitting here trying to explain, how can I translate? But what comes to mind is a clean slate. I can’t indicate which direction we can take, I gave you your space, in tried to relate, now I comprehend.
I’m trying to let go but the pull is so strong, I try to hold on but it still feels wrong…
Please come home, Hold my hand let’s get lost, create our own world, fly beyond the sky I already feel at home with you within my soul.
Make my heart your home, ‘cause yours is already, Already My home…

Regarding The Massacre
23 is not a stagnant number
of the massacre
it will rise like the tide
till it gets to a hundred more
these insane murders
in the name of politics
a white foreigner beside me
chats with his Filipina girlfriend
saying that life is insane
he makes a point, i agree,
death is inflicted and there will be no reasons left
i have another definition of life now.
It is insane.

Night In The City
Standin at the airport lookin down the strip,
She was cryin her eyes, she was bitin her lip.
Seven-four-seven just left from gate eleven
And theres no turnin round cos its just leavin the ground
And gettin higher higher.
Standin at the dock-side lookin out to sea
When I saw her but she did not see me.
There she stood with no hope because shed missed the boat
And as her dreams sailed away she headed back for the day,
Back to the city city.
Night in the city, o-o-oh,
Madness at mid-mid-mid-midnight,
Night in the city drivin you insane.
In the city city
Night in the city, o-o-oh,
Madness at mid-mid-mid-midnight,
Night in the city drivin you insane.
I was runnin kinda lonely at the city place.
I waited for an hour, I never saw her face.
Crazy ladies that wait and slide around like a snake.
I just cant take anymore, Im going in through the door
Into the city city.
Ill get you, yes, Im gonna get you,
Ill get you, yes, Im gonna get you,
Ill get you, yes, Im gonna get you,
Ill get you, yes, Im gonna get you,
Ill get you, yes, Im gonna get you,
Ill get you, yes, Im gonna get you,
Drivin you insane.
Night in the city, o-o-oh,
Madness at mid-mid-mid-midnight,
Night in the city drivin you insane,
Drivin you insane,
Drivin you insane.

Down The Road I Go
Let me tell you baby
If you want to pin me down
Better get your hammer, girl
And nail me to the ground
'Cause you won't find no grass stains
On the bottom of my feet
The only home I've ever known
Is out there on the street
You call me insane
Honey, that's my middle name
And I don't care which way the wind will blow
'Cause I don't know
So down the road I go
You see I tried to settle down
Not too long ago
You can lock my body up
But you can't calm my soul
I don't want to hurt you
Or put you on a shelf
But my daddy told me all my life
You've got to be yourself
You call me insane
Honey, that's my middle name
And I don't care which way the wind will blow
'Cause I don't know so down the road I go
I'm sure there's lots of guys out there
Who've learned to tow the line
Compared to them my life may look a wreck
But girl, you've been to college
So you should know by now
And if you can't understand me
What the hell did you expect
I'm giving you fair warning
I'm gonna say goodbye
And when I'm walkin' out the door
Don't want to hear you cry
There's so much highway out there
That I ain't never seen
And all I need is cigarettes, guitars and gasoline
You call me insane
Honey, that's my middle name
And I don't care which way the wind will blow
'Cause I don't know
So honey, down the road I go
Down the road I go
I'll see you around
'Cause I'm leaving town
Yeah, yeah, yeah...
