Mike Mccready

This broken wheel is coming undone.
And the road's exploding.
But you're keeping me strong.
Rolling along with you.
Love is a tower and you're the key.
Leading me higher. When you let me in.

Keeping us close, so close, on down the line.
Sometimes I burn like a dot on the sun with no one knowing.
But you're keeping me strong. Moving along with you.
You are a tower of strength to me.
The darkening hour sees light again.
Again. Ooh wah, ooh wah, you are, you are~~

Love is a tower of strength to me.
I am the shoreline but you're the sea.
The sea. You are~~~~

Unsealed on a porch a letter sat.
Then you said, "I wanna leave it again."
Once I saw her on a beach of weathered sand. And on the sand I wanna leave it again. Yeah.
On a weekend I wanna wish it all away, yeah.
And they called and I said that "I want what I said" and then I call out again.
And the reason oughta' leave her calm, I know.
I said "I know what I wear not the boxer or the bag."

Ah yeah, can you see them out on the porch? Yeah, but they don't wave.
But I see them round the front way. Yeah.
And I know, and I know. I don't want to stay.
Make me cry...

I felt the earth on Monday.
It moved beneath my feet.
In the form of a morning paper.
Laid out for me to see.
Saw his face in a corner picture.
I recognized the name.
Could not stop staring at the.
Face I'd never see again.
It's a shame to awake in a world of pain
What does it mean when a war has taken over
It's the same everyday in a hell manmade
What can be saved,
and who will be left to hold her?
The whole world...World over.
It's a worldwide suicide.
and who will be left to hold her?
It's a worldwide suicide.
Medals on a wooden mantle.
Next to a handsome face.
That the president took for granted.
Writing checks that others pay.
And in all the madness.
Thought becomes numb and naive.
So much to talk about.
Nothing for to say.
It's the same everyday
and the wave won't break
Tell you to pray,
while the devils on their shoulder
Laying claim to the take that
our soldiers save
Does not equate,
and the truth's already out there
The whole world,... World over.
It's a worldwide suicide.
The whole world,... World over.
It's a worldwide suicide.

Looking in the eyes of the fallen
You got to know there's another,
another, another, another Another way
It's a shame to awake in a world of pain
What does it mean when a war has taken over
It's the same everyday and the wave won't break
Tell you to pray,
while the devils on their shoulder
The whole world,... World over.
It's a worldwide suicide.
The whole world,... World over.

I wish I was a neutron bomb, for once I could go off
I wish I was a sacrifice but somehow still lived on
I wish I was a sentimental ornament you hung on
The Christmas tree, I wish I was the star that went on top
I wish I was the evidence, I wish I was the grounds
For 50 million hands upraised and open toward the sky

I wish I was a sailor with someone who waited for me
I wish I was as fortunate, as fortunate as me
I wish I was a messenger and all the news was good
I wish I was the full moon shining off a Camaro's hood

I wish I was an alien at home behind the sun
I wish I was the souvenir you kept your house key on
I wish I was the pedal brake that you depended on
I wish I was the verb 'to trust' and never let you down

I wish I was a radio song, the one that you turned up
I wish...
I wish...

Come to send
Not condescend
Transcendental consequence
Is to transcend where we are
Who are we Who we are
Trampled marrs on your souls
Changes all you're a part
Seen it all not at all
Can't defend, fuck the man
Take me for a ride Before we leave
Circumstance
Clappin' hands
Guidin' winds
Happenstance
Off the track, in the mud
Patch the marrs, in the aforementioned verse

Just a little time Before we leave
Stop light plays its part
So I would say you've got a heart
What's your part Who you are
You are who who you are

Don't need a helmet, got a hard, hard head
Don't need a raincoat, I'm already wet

Oh please, let it rain today
This city is so filthy, like my mind in ways
Oh, was a time, like a clean, new taste
Smiling eyes before me,
inches from my face
Wash my love

Sin the sale, buying just a need
Just who planted, all the devils seeds
And what the truth,
and the truth that lies at home
It's on the inside, and I can't get it off, yeah
Wash my love

What's clean is pure, but hey,
I'm white on the outside, though I stray
What she don't know today,
might kill us both tomorrow,
bring it back someway
Bring it back, bring it back,
back to the clean form, to the pure form
Wash my love

He won the lottery when he was born
Took his mothers white breast to his tongue
Trained like dogs, color and smell
Walks by me to get to him
Police man

He won the lottery by being born
Big hand slapped a white male 'merican
Do no wrong, so clean cut...
Dirty his hands, it comes right off
Police man
Police stopped my brother again
Police man

Jesus greets me...looks just like me...
Do no wrong, so clean cut
Dirty his hands, it comes right off

He's got a big gold ring which says Jesus Saves
and it's dented from the punch
thrown at work that day
when he smashed the metal
locker where he kept his things
after the big boss say You best be on your way
So this life is sacrifice
oh yeah
jumping trains just to survive
Well his wife and kids asleep but he's still awake
and his brain weighs the
curse of thirty bills unpaid
gets up, lights a cigarette,
he's grown to hate
thinking if he can't sleep,
how will he ever dream again?
So this life is sacrificed

Last stop on the westcoast line
South of the northern border
One small corner on my mind
Everybody, they know me there
Don't get any second glances
Chances are that they don't care
The world has come undone
Like to change it everyday
Change don't come at once
It's a wave building before it breaks
Can't wait for election day
Witness the occupation
Corporations rule the day
Well you know the pendulum throws
Farther out to the one side, swinging
Has to sweep back the other way
The world has come undone
Another day and who can wait
Change don't come at once
It's a wave building before it breaks
All this hope and nowhere to go
This is how i used to feel, but no more
The world has come undone
Like a game that few can play
Change don't come from one
It's a wave building before it breaks

Winded is the sailor...drifting by the storm...
Wounded is the organ he left all...bloodied on the shore...
Gorgeous was his savior, sees her...drowning in his wake...
Daily taste the salt of her tears, but...a chance blamed fate...

Little secrets, tremors...turned to quake...
The smallest oceans still get...big, big waves...

Ransom paid the Devil...He whispers pleasing words...
Triumphant are the angels if they can...a get there first...

Little secrets tremors...turned to quake...
The smallest oceans still get...big, big waves...

I'll decide...take the dive...
Take my time...not my life...
Wait for signs...believe in lies...
To get by...it's divine...whoa...
Oh, you know what it's like...

Turns the bow back, tows and...drops the line...
Puts his faith and love in Tremor Christ...

I have not been home since you left long ago
I'm thumbing my way back to heaven
counting steps walking backwards on the road
I'm counting my way back to heaven
I can't be free with what's locked inside of me
if there was a key, you took it in your hand
there's no wrong or right
but I'm sure there's good and bad
the questions linger overhead
no matter how cold the winter
there's a springtime ahead
I'm thumbing my way back to heaven
I wish that I could hold you
I wish that I had thinking 'bout heaven
I let go of a rope
thinking that's what held me back
and in time I've realized
it's now wrapped around my neck
I can't see what's next
from this lonely overpass
hang my head and count my steps
as another car goes past
all the rusted signs
we ignore throughout our lives
choosing the shiny ones instead
I turned my back
now there's no turning back
no matter how cold the winter
there's a springtime ahead
I smile, but who am I kidding
I'm just walking the miles
every once in a while I'll get a ride
I'm thumbing my way back to heaven
thumbing my way back to heaven
I'm thumbing my way back to heaven

I have not been home since you left long ago
I'm thumbing my way back to heaven
counting steps walking backwards on the road
I'm counting my way back to heaven
I can't be free with what's locked inside of me

there's a springtime ahead
I smile, but who am I kidding
I'm just walking the miles
every once in a while I'll get a ride
I'm thumbing my way back to heaven
thumbing my way back to heaven
I'm thumbing my way back to heaven

There's a light, when my baby's in my arms.
There's a light, when the window shades are drawn.
Hesitate when I feel I may do harm to her.
Wash it off cause this feeling we can share.

And I know she's reached my heart in thin air.

Byzantine is reflected in our pond.
There's a cloud, but the water remains calm.
Reaching in the suns fingers clutch the dawn to pass.
Even out, it's a precious thing to bear.

And I know she's reached my heart in thin air.
Yes I know she's reached my heart in thin air.

It's not in my past to presume.
Love can keep on moving in both directions.
How to be happy and true is quest we're taking on together.

Take it on, on, on, on, on.
Take it on, on, on, on, on.

There's a light when my baby's in my arms.

And I know she's reached my heart in thin air.

State of love and trust
as I busted down the pretext.
Sin still plays and preaches,
but to have an empty court
And the signs are passin',
grip the wheel, can't read it.
Sacrifice receiving
the smell that's on my hands.
And I listen for the voice inside my head
nothin'. I'll do this one myself.
Lay her down as priest does.
Should the Lord be countin'?
Will be in my honor.
Make it pain, painfully quick
Promises are whispered
in the age of darkness.
Want to be enlightened
like I want to be told the end.
And the barrel shakes
and directly at my head.
Oh, help me, help me from myself.
And I listen from both sides of a friend
nothin'. I'll do this one myself.

Sorry is the fool who trades his soul for a corvette.
Thinks he'll get the girl he'll only get the mechanic.
What's missing? He's living a day he'll soon forget.
That's one more time around.
The sun is going down.
The moon is out but he's drunk and shouting.
Putting people down.
He's pissing. He's living a day he'll soon forget.
Counts his money every morning.
The only thing that keeps him horny.
Locked in a giant house that's alarming.
The townsfolk they all laugh.

Sorry is the fool who trades his love for hi-rise rent.
Seem the more you make equals the loneliness you get.
And it's fitting. He's barley living a day he'll soon forget.
That's one more time around and there is not a sound.
He's lying dead clutching Benjamins. Never put the money down.
He's stiffening. We're all whistling a man we'll soon forget.

Large fingers pushing paint
You're god and you've got big hands
Colors blend
The challenges you give me
Seek my part
Devote myself
My small self
Like a book amongst the many on a shelf
Sometimes I know
Sometimes I rise
Sometimes I fall
Sometimes I don't
Sometimes I cringe
Sometimes I live
Sometimes I walk
Sometimes I kneel
Sometimes I speak of nothing at all
Sometimes I reach to myself dear god

You're God and you got big hands...

Routine was the theme.
He'd wake up wash and pour himself into uniform.
Something he hadn't imagined being.
As the merging traffic passed
he found himself staring down at his own hands.
Not remembering the change.
Not recalling the plan.
Was it?

He was okay but wondering about wandering.
Was his age by consequence
or was he moved by sleight of hand?

Mondays were made to fall.
Lost on a road he knew by heart.
It was like a book he read in his sleep.
Endlessly.
Sometimes he hid in the radio
watching other pull into their homes.
While he was drifting.

On a line of his own.
Off the line of the side.
Bye the by.
As dirt turned to sand.
As if moved by sleight of hand.

When he reached the shore of his clip on
world he resurfaced to the norm.
Organized his few things.
His coat and keys.
And he knew realizations would have to wait.
Till he had more time.
More time.

A time to dream to himself.
He waves goodbye to his self.
I'll see you on the other side.
Another man moved by slight of hand.

Big man stands behind an open door
Said, leave your lady on the cement floor
got some kicks, want to take a ride?I said, yeah!
take your pick, leave yourself behind I said, yeah!
I've no fear but for falling down
So look out below I am falling now
Oh please understand I just need, my friend,
a way a way a way home

Tried to walk, found a severed hand
Recognized it by the wedding band
Said it's ok, do you want some more?
I said, yeah!
Said You'll see dragons after 3 or 4
I said, yeah!
Under stand I'm not falling down
I said, look around, the rooms taller now,
I can't close my eyes,
'cause I see the sound in waves
In waves, lets me stay calm
If I don't lose control
Explore and not explode
A preternatural other plane
With the power to maintain
Like a tear in all we know
Once dissolved we are free to grow
What is human, what is more?
I'll answer this when I get home

It's not all been said, been said and done.
I've never slept in Satan's bed.
Although, I must admit, still visits my place.
Uninvited, as you know he don't wait.
Funny how he always seems to fit in.
Funny how I always want to give in.
Sundays, Fridays, Tuesdays, Thursdays the same.
Sometimes this special guest he don't like to leave.

Already in love. (x3)
Already...

Who made, who made up, made up the myth
that we were born to be covered in bliss?
Who set the standard? Born to be rich.
Such fine examples, skinny little bitch.
Model, role model. Roll some models in blood.
Get some flesh to stick so they look like us.
I shit and I stink. I'm real join the club.
I'd stop and talk but I'm already in love.

Already in love. (x3)
Already in love... Ah ha ha ha...

Torture follows reward, follows torture, follows reward.
Oh, oh my word.

Never shook Satan's hand. Look, see for yourself.
You'd know it if I had that shit don't come off.
I'll rise and fall, let me take credit for both.
Jump off a cliff don't need your help so back off.
I'll never suck Satan's dick.
Again you'd see it, you know, right round the lips.
I'll wait for an angel but I won't hold my breath.
Amagine they're busy. Think I'm doing okay.

Already in love. (x6)

all the photographs are peeling
and colors turn to gray, he's stayin'
in his room with memories for days, he faced
an undertow of futures laid to waste, embraced
by the loss of one he could not replace
and there's no reason that she'd pass
and there is no god with the plan, it's sad
and his holiness is proof, it's sad
he could only love you, it's sad
the door swings through a passing fable
a fate we may delay, we say
holding on, to live within our embrace
eleven nights, he laid in bed
hoping that dreams would bring her back, it's sad
and his holiness is proof, it's sad
he could only love you, it's sad
holding his last breath, believing
he'll make his way
but she's not forgotten
he's haunted
he's searching for escape
if just one wish could bring her back, it's sent
and his holiness is proof, it's sad
he will always love you, it's sad

There are colors on the street...red, white, and blue
People shufflin' their feet, people sleepin' in their shoes
There's a warnin' sign in the road ahead
There's a lot of people sayin' we'd be better off dead
Don't feel like Satan, but I am to them
So I try to forgive 'em, any way I can, yeah...

I see a girl in the night with a baby in her hands
Under an old street light, oh, near a garbage can
Now she put her kid away, she's gone to get a hit
She hates her life, and what she's done with it
That's one more kid, that'll never go to school
Never get to fall in love, never get to be cool

Keep on rockin' in the free world (3x)

(The US of A, the United States
Ain't a free place, it's not a free place
(Ain't got the right to choose, barely got the right to vote
(There they got the right to make an honest buck
The USA ain't a free, free place

There's a thousand points of light for the colored man
There's a kinder, gentler police man's hand
There's department stores, and toilet paper
Styrofoam garbage for the Ozone layer
There's a man of the people, said 'keep hope alive'
Got fuel to burn, got roads to drive
Keep on rockin' in the free world (4x)

All my rivals will see what
I have in store. my gun.
I've been harboring fleets in this reservoir.
Red sun.
And this nations' about to explode.

You're disciples are riddled with metaphors.
Well hung.
Better pony up and bring both your barrels full.
Not one.
As we release this unspeakable toll.

Woh. Happy idols ??? can crawl.
All the sound and acting well.

How's our mother to damn these contributors.
With mud.
How will the man who made chemicals difficult.
Shed blood.
How's our father supposed to be told.
I don't know.
