Lyrically Speaking (a word game)

Say, you don't want to chance it
You've been hassled before
Watch it now, eagle in the sky
How he dancin' one and only

You, lose yourself , no not for pity's sake
There's no real reason to be lonely
Be yourself, give your free will a chance
You've got to work to succeed

Owner of a lonely heart
Owner of a lonely heart
(Much better than a)
Owner of a broken heart
Owner of…
 
I'll destroy this useless heart
I'll fuck it up so it'll never beat again
Not just for me but for anyone

But I get carried away with every phrase
And made up malady
The longer I hide behind these lies
The more I disintegrate

So much to say but no words to convey
The loneliness building with each passing day
Never get used to it, you just have to live with it
 
"It's okay." he smiles and says
But this loneliness is driving him crazy.
He don't show what goes on in his head
But if you watch very close you'll see it all

Sit down, take a look at yourself
Don't you want to be somebody?
Someday somebody's gonna see inside
You have to face up, you can't run and hide.

Have you heard about the Lonesome Loser?
 
Don't walk around the down and out lend a helping hand instead of doubt
And the kindness that you show every day will help someone along their way
You've got to try a little kindness
 
There's another world inside of me that you may never see
There's secrets in this life that I can't hide
Somewhere in this darkness there's a light that I can't find
Maybe it's too far away, maybe I'm just blind
 
Do your demons, do they ever let you go?
When you've tried, do they hide, deep inside
Is it someone that you know
You're just a picture, you're an image caught in time
We're a lie, you and I
We're words without a rhyme

There's no sign of the morning coming
You've been left on your own
Like a rainbow in the dark
Just a rainbow in the dark, yeah
 
Here I go again on my own
Goin' down the only road I've ever known.
Like a drifter I was born to walk alone.
An' I've made up my mind, I ain't wasting no more time.
 
^^^that's driving me nuts. Every time I try to read it and think of a next set of lyrics, I get stuck singing the damn song over and over and can't go anywhere.

= = =

I walk this empty street
On the boulevard of broken dreams
Where the city sleeps
And I'm the only one, and I walk alone

My shadow's the only one that walks beside me
My shallow heart's the only thing that's beating
Sometimes I wish someone out there will find me
Till then I walk alone
 
I'm having trouble trying to sleep.
I'm counting sheep but running out.
As time ticks by, still I try.
No rest for crosstops in my mind.
On my own, here we go.
 
And I got a corner store
And that's all the more for me to praise upon the holidays
And now, I'll close my eyes really, really tight
And make you all go away
I'll make you all go away
I'll make you all go...
 
I don't know if you can, but can you get an order for Ons, that's O-N-S,
Junior Market, the address is 1934 East Anaheim, all the windows are
Busted out, and it's like a free-for-all in here and uh the owner should
At least come down here and see if he can secure his business-
 
Cruisin' down the street what do I see?
Crash Task Force, L.A.P.D
Gangs illin', wildin' and killin'
Hustlers on a roll, like they got a million

Girls on the strap and you know that
You know the guys will stop wildin' if you stop that crap
But you can't, you want money so bad
You'll jock anything with the Gucci tag
You gotta have it, so the men go get it
Robbin' and stealin', soon to regret it

Livin' in a jail cell, feelin' like a dumbbell
While you jump the next jock, well
That's reality, that's what I see
Nobody says that you have to agree
Censorship, that ain't the way to be
I thought you said this country was free?
 
Jasmine, I saw you peeping
As I pushed my foot down to the floor
I was going 'round and 'round
The hotel garage
Must have been touching close to 94
Oh, but I'm
Always crashing in the same car
 
When I drive that slow, you know it's hard to steer.
And I can't get get my care out of second gear.
What used to take two hours now takes all day. Huh!
It took me 16 hours to get to L.A.

Gonna write me up a 125
Post my face wanted dead or alive
Take my license, all that jive
I can't drive 55!
 
they'll stone ya when you're trying to be so good They'll stone ya just a-like they said they would They'll stone ya when you're tryin' to go home Then they'll stone ya when you're there all alone But I would not feel so all alone Everybody must get stoned
 
I'm gonna stop singing this song because I'm high
I'm singing this whole thing wrong because I'm high
And if I don't sell one copy I know why
'Cause I'm high
Because I'm high
Because I'm high
 
Have you ever been close to tragedy
Or been close to folks who have
Have you ever felt a pain so powerful, so heavy you collapse?

No...
Well I've never had to knock on wood
But I know someone who has
Which makes me wonder if I could
It makes me wonder if I've

Never had to knock on wood
And I'm glad I haven't yet

Because I'm sure it isn't good
That's the impression that I get
