Dear God
dear God
hope you got the letter and
I pray you can make it better down here
I don't mean a big reduction in the price of beer
but all the people that you made in your image
see them starving on their feet
'cause they don't get enough to eat
from God
I can't believe in you
dear God
sorry to disturb you, but
I feel that I should be heard loud and clear
we all need a big reduction in the amount of tears
and all the people that you made in your image
see them fighting in the street
'cause they can't make opinions meet
about God
I can't believe in you
did you make disease, and the diamond blue?
did you make mankind after we made you?
and the devil too?
dear God
don't know if you noticed but
your name is on a lot of quotes in this book
us crazy humans wrote it, you should take a look
and all the people that you made in your image
still believing that junk is true
well I know it ain't and so do you
dear God
I can't believe in...
I don't believe in...
I won't believe in heaven and hell
no saints, no sinners, no devil as well
no pearly gates, no thorny crown
you're always letting us humans down
the wars you bring, the babes you drown
those lost at sea and never found
and it's the same the whole world 'round
the hurt I see helps to compound
that father, son and holy ghost
is just somebody's unholy hoax
and if you're up there you'd perceive
that's my heart upon my sleeve
if there's one thing I don't believe in...
It's you...
dear God
I Will Remember You
I will remember you
Will you remember me?
don't let your life pass you by
weep not for the memories
remember the good times that we had?
I let them slip away from us when things got bad
how clearly I first saw you smiling in the sun
wanna feel your warmth upon me, I wanna be the one
I will remember you
Will you remember me?
don't let your life pass you by
weep not for the memories
I'm so tired but I can't sleep
Standing on the edge of something much too deep
It's funny how we feel so much but we cannot say a word
we are screaming inside but we can't be heard
but I will remember you
will you remember me?
don't let your life pass you by
weep not for the memories
I'm so afraid to love you, but more afraid to lose
clinging to a past that doesn't let me choose
once there was a darkness, deep and endless night
you gave me everything you had, oh you gave me light
and I will remember you
will you remember me?
don't let your life pass you by
weep not for the memories
and I will remember you
will you remember me?
don't let your life pass you by
weep not for the memories
weep not for the memories

Gloomy Sunday
sunday is gloomy,
my hours are slumberless,
dearest, the shadows I live with are numberless
little white flowers will never awaken you
not where the black coach of sorrow has taken you
angels have no thought of ever returning you
would they be angry if I thought of joining you
gloomy sunday
sunday is gloomy
with shadows I spend it all
my heart and I have decided to end it all
soon there'll be flowers and prayers that are sad
I know, let them not weep
let them know that I'm glad to go
death is no dream,
for in death I'm caressing you
with the last breath of my soul I'll be blessing you
gloomy sunday
dreaming
I was only dreaming
I wake and I find you
asleep in the deep of my heart
dear
darling I hope that my dream never haunted you
my heart is telling you how much I wanted you
gloomy sunday
Full of Grace
the winter here's cold, and bitter
it's chilled us to the bone
we haven't seen the sun for weeks
to long too far from home
I feel just like I'm sinking
and I claw for solid ground
I'm pulled down by the undertow
I never thought I could feel so low
oh darkness I feel like letting go
if all of the strength and all of the courage
come and lift me from this place
I know I could love you much better than this
full of grace
full of grace
my love
so it's better this way, I said
having seen this place before
where everything we said and did
hurts us all the more
its just that we stayed, too long
in the same old sickly skin
I'm pulled down by the undertow
I never thought I could feel so low
oh darkness I feel like letting go
if all of the strength
and all of the courage
come and lift me from this place
I know I could love you much better than this
full of grace
full of grace
my love
Song For a Winter's Night
the lamp is burnin' low upon my table
top
the snow is softly falling
the air is still within the silence of my room
I hear your voice softly calling
if I could only have you near
to breathe a sigh or two
I would be happy just to hold the hands I love
upon this winter night with you
the smoke is rising in the shadows overhead
my glass is almost empty
I read again between the lines upon the page
the words of love you sent me
if I could know within my heart
that you were lonely too
I would be happy just to hold the hands I love
upon this winter night with you
the fire is dying now, my lamp is growing dim
the shades of night are lifting
the morning light steals across my windowpane
where webs of snow are drifting
if I could only have you near
to breathe a sigh or two
I would be happy just to hold the hands I love
and to be once again with with you
to be once again with with you
Blue
blue, songs are like tattoos
you know I've been to sea before
crown and anchor me
or let me sail away
blue, here is a song for you
ink on a pin
underneath the skin
an empty space to fill in
well there's so many sinking now
you've got to keep thinking
we can make it through these waves
acid, booze, and ass
needles, guns, and grass
lots of laughs, lots of laughs
well everybody's saying that hell's the hippest way to go
well I don't think so
but I'm gonna take a look around it though
blue, I love you
blue, here is a shell for you
inside you'll hear a sigh
a foggy lullaby
here is my song from me

As the End Draws Near
(Extended Remix)
"People of the Earth, you
are reconciled that this
is the last night of the world.
This is the last night of the world?"
into the valleys the shadow of death
grieves silently across the darkened sea
this is it
we stand alone
we can see it all from here
the starless night across the mountainside
there's no one left to talk to
there's nothing left to say
ino the valleys the shadow of death
grieves silently across the darkened sea
you and me
we stand alone
we can see it all from here
stretched far and wide, the barren skies
fighting silence, deep inside
into the valleys the shadow of death
grieves silently across the darkened sea
you and me
we stand alone
we can see it all from here
stretched far and wide, the barren skies
fighting silence, deep inside
into the valleys the shadow of death
grieves silently - it's in you and me
oh, it's in you and me
oh, it's in you and me
