Drain My Brain
Unwind my mind oh baby drain my brain
Unscrew my head take a part of my heart
Scrape away the pain and start all over again
I tell you baby I don't understand just how you can make love to me
While you're lookin' at the picture of another man
You got me talkin' to my elbow climbin' up the wall
First you tell me you despise me then you say you idolize me
Then you tell me you can't use me at all
Unwind my mind...
[ guitar ]
Unwind my mind...
I tell you baby I just can't go on
The hung up way that we're livin' while I'm doin' all the givin'
You keep on callin' me John
First you messin' with Charlie and then you jivin' with Jim
And I know you need a father but I really can't bother
Bein' all those other guys plus him
Unwind my mind...
Unwind my mind settle my spine yeah unroll my soul yeah

Evolutions overwhelming
Check your head this train is wrecking
In time
Unwind
Everyone just take it easy
I dont like the way youre looking at me
Unkind

And if you can spare the time
Then its time to break away
Evolutions overrated
Check your head this train is wrecking
Everyone just take it easy

These Bends
I’m more than a little lost and found
But this town, it is dead
And there’s to many hypocrisies in my head
And it just wind, wind, unwinds me out
Just give me some time
Then give me a place, (somewhere new)
Bewildering concepts of time and space
They all just wind, unwind, wind out of me
A year and a day and three broken hearts are
Books lined up on the shelves of
Too many words I said
But I just wind, wind, unwind myself
Ghosts of a thousand memories
Have taken over this place just
Faces in dreams and corners
They help me wind, wind unwind myself out
Of this place and at this time
I need a new escape
When is my next escape?
Or release, from me, my mind, my fears, my dreams
So I don’t wind, wind, unwind, myself out of here

Future Unwinding
They say what doesn't kill you makes you stronger
All I know is that I can't be dead any longer
And so I try to be me,
But will I fall?
Can I set my mind free?
Will I ever stand tall?
I can only wait and see
Through the eyes in my head
But I can look forward and see
With the eye of my mind
So I just let the future unwind.
I let the future unwind in me.
I see the future unwinding
I feel the light is gonna be blinding
And I know that there's only one way of finding
And that is to search through the future unwinding,
Through the future unwinding in me.

Got A Man On My Mind
Walk around in circles
Without peace and little sleep
Cant cool down and unwind
What Im feeling is a feeling
Thats just you down deep
Got a man on my mind
Havent seen him for so long
Hes always on the go
Not the sticking round kind
I dont care whatever happens
One thing I do know
Got a man on my mind
Sometimes I stand there
Just starrin into space
And I talk about how I feel (yeah yeah)
Being there
Yet I clearly see his face
And I hold him and hes quite real
Never thought that I could care
For anyone that much
Oh how wrong can you be
Im so hungry for his kisses
For his tender touch
Hes the whole world for me
Oooh
Walk around in circles
Without peace and without sleep
Cant cool down and unwind
What Im feeling is a feeling
Thats just you down deep
Got a man on my mind
Sometimes I stand there
Just starrin into space
And I talk about how I feel (oh yeah)
Being there
Yet I clearly see his face
And I hold him and hes quite real
Walk around in circles
Without peace and without sleep
Got a man on my mind
Im hungry for kisses
Im thirsty for love
Got a man on my mind

Baby, baby I want you
Baby, and I need you
Im still in love with you
Even though youre not with me
You never once left my mind
I guess Im still in love with you, ooh, ooh---

No matter where you go, no place is too far
Just call my name and Ill be there, oh, baby

Just Dropped In
To see what condition my condition was in)
(mickey newbury)
(yeah, yeah, oh-yeah, what condition my condition was in)
I woke up this mornin with the sundown shinin in
I found my mind in a brown paper bag within
I tripped on a cloud and fell-a eight miles high
I tore my mind on a jagged sky
I just dropped in to see what condition my condition was in
(yeah, yeah, oh-yeah, what condition my condition was in)
I pushed my soul in a deep dark hole and then I followed it in
I watched myself crawlin out as I was a-crawlin in
I got up so tight I couldnt unwind
I saw so much I broke my mind
I just dropped in to see what condition my condition was in
(yeah, yeah, oh-yeah, what condition my condition was in)
Someone painted april fool in big black letters on a dead end sign
I had my foot on the gas as I left the road and blew out my mind
Eight miles outta memphis and I got no spare
Eight miles straight up downtown somewhere
I just dropped in to see what condition my condition was in
I said I just dropped in to see what condition my condition was in
Yeah yeah oh-yeah

And...

All the of time.
Yes, I have secret meetings,

And...
I find they're the best,
All the of time.
In my mind to be condoned,
Secret meetings feeding peace.
In my mind I keep condoned.
Secret meetings feeding peace.
And my head I keep cool and collected.
Yes, I have secret meetings,
In my mind all the time.
And...
It's keepng me cool and collected.

I have secret meetings in my mind all the time,
To unwind...
From the beatings of the times.
With corruption on the pedestal directing the crimes.
I have secret meetings in my mind all the time,
To unwind...
From the beatings of the times.
With corruption on the pedestal directing the crimes.
I have secret meetings in my mind all the time,

With corruption on the pedestal directing the crimes.
With corruption on the pedestal directing the crimes.

Down And Out
Well I'm out on a tear 'cause she's tearing me apart
If I look rough on the outside, you ought to see my heart.
And this look in my eyes shows beyond a doubt,
Since my woman left, I'm down and out.
Well, I'm down at the bar, out of my mind,
Tighter than an eight-day clock with no way to unwind,
That jukebox cries the blues like it knows what I'm about.
Since my woman left, I'm down and out.
Well I'm down to my last dollar, but I don't really care.
My friends have all got whiskey, and they don't mind if I share.
They know how it feels to have your heart torn inside out,
Since my woman left, I'm down and out.
Well, I'm down at the bar, out of my mind,
Tighter than an eight-day clock with no way to unwind,
That jukebox cries the blues like it knows what I'm about.
Since my woman left, I'm down and out.
Since my woman left, since my woman left,
Since my woman left, I'm down and out

Unwind
Verse 1
I hide my pain like the rest of them
That's why I'm always laughing
I'm troubled, I'm brilliant and miserable too
That's why I am so funny
I swallow down all my fears
With a bottle made of silver
I've only been here for 27 years
But already my life is over
Chorus
And I need to unwind, yes and I
I need to unwind, yes, and I
Want all the time
To be loved, to unwind
Verse 2
My life is like a fairytale
That nobody believes in
I can't remember anything
Not the people, not the places I've been
Just one more day you can make it, babe
That's what I tell myself
And everything that I love in life
It is killing me, 'cause it's bad for my health

Somebody comfort me
S... southern comfort me
Somebody comfort me
S... southern comfort me

I Do
You spend your lonely days lookin' for someone
I just wanna be the one that makes your river run
I know it ain't so fun bein all alone
And I know you wonder when you'll find yourself a home
You ain't foolin' no one baby
See you don't believe in you
But I do
Yeah I do
Oh I do
Yeah I do
If you want some company
I don't mind a ride
I don't want your money baby
And I don't want your pride
You might think I'm crazy
You just might be shy
I think this is good for us
But I could just be high
We can make this happen baby
I believe that's true
Yeah I do
Yes I do
Oh I do
Yes I do
You keep on lookin' baby
I hope it's all too sweet
I hope its fairy tales
And everything you dream
But just remember that we ain't all this kind
When you get tired of lookin' baby I ain't hard to find
Your wastin' all your time out there
Cuz they don't care about you
But I do
Yeah I do
Oh I do

Oh I do

Cliche
One more game, one more chance
One more orchestrated song and dance
Hed be up front and speak his peace
And ask for her time
To put their heads together
And try to make the knot unwind
And it strikes home that its time to make his move
Or its time to turn and walk away
So he plays that old clich
Silent tears, bleeding heart
Well our prima donna plies her art
Defenses of defenses of faultless design
Still shes only asking him
To help her make the knot unwind
And if the very next words
Leaving her lips could decide
If hed go or if hed stay
She would play that old clich
Who makes up the rules for the world?
Havent we been down this road before?
Isnt anything peculiar here?
Certainly there must be something more
Where are the words, where are the words,
Where are the words
Where are the words, where are the words,
Where are the words
And its almost not worth singing about,
It seems so everyday anyway
Still we play that old clich
And here sit i, one man show
I vivisect and then pretend to know
All it ever gets me is an ache in the mind
Cant somebody help me to try to make the knot unwind
And I say what I say when I know
Theres really nothing left to say
Then I play that old clich
Throw away that old clich

Oh baby you're young but that's okay
What's give or take nine years anyway
I'll bet you that cigarette
You won't regret my time
I want to be with a guy like you
So uncomplicated, so in tune
Just take off my dress
Let's mess with everybody's mind
I gotta tell you
Baby, baby, baby, if it's all right
Want you to rock me all night
Baby, baby, if it's all right
Want you to rock me all night

Hey yeah yeah
Hey yeah yeah
I want to play Xbox on your floor
Say hi to your roommate who's next door
You don't have a dime, but I don't mind
Who gives a damn
Your record collection don't exist
You don't even know who Liz Phair is
Your potential with no credentials
Your mother taught you how to be a sensitive man1

Want you to rock me all night

Who'd 've guessed it could rock me all night

Think I'm cool

Oh God, let me save you

Let go of HIm Already
Its been a while,
since i last saw your face,
and to tell you the truth,
I'm starting to miss your sweet grace!
I'm just hoping that god,
can help me one day,
make this awful pain go away,
go far away!
Right now what i wish the most,
is that the kid i once knew,
would blow away from my mind,
just like my other boyfriends do!
Why is it so hard,
for me to let go,
of this pain i feel within?
I guess i do love him so!
But I'm guessing
that was only a dream
because now i woke up
and I'm not sure what to believe!
'let go of him already'
says my mind
but right now my heart
doesn't want to unwind!
Everyday i ask myself
why and how.
Why do i love?
How come i love him now?
I never thought,
of falling in love,
but now i got the message
that god sent from way above!
The message was
to give him a special part
in my lovable
but broken heart!
And that this kid
will never pretend
and that my heart
will surely mend!

Umm, umm, umm, umm, umm, hm, get it, Baby, get it
You've been with me through the hardest times
And you've kept my heart, body, soul and mind together
(You, you, you) It's been us two against the world
It ain't been easy but we sho' made it together
Thanks to (you, you, you) you, you, you
All I wanna say is Baby (Baby) oh my Baby (Baby)

Oh, yeah, Baby (Baby) oh my Baby (Oh my Baby)

Hoo, yeah, yeah
When my world had fallen to the ground
Your love was there always around
And I love you, and I love you, hoo, I love you, hoo, hoo
Ho, oh---, the world keeps changing in which we live
Sometimes people just don't have the time to give
That very special part of them that keeps our love together
Oh Baby, take my love, I hope you keep this forever
You (I love you) God bless you
(I love you) I love you (I really do)
Oh, hoo (Hey, hey and I love, I love you) I love you (I love you)

Baby be mine
Baby be mine;
Sip dandelion wine,
Condense all the lines:
Slow down time
If a single chord ran through our lives,
Baby would you be all mine?
Baby be mine;
Our hearts we'll bind,
Out of sight and mind,
The hours unwind
If a single chord ran through our lives,
Baby would you be all mine?
Baby be mine;
Loveliness we'll find,
And on beauty dine-
Leave lonely behind
If a single chord ran through our lives,
Baby would you be all mine?
