Well there is nothing else that we can lose. I put

heart upon my sleeve tonight. I know everything will

change soon,

I can see it in your eyes. You won't be here for very

long. If no one hears you, will you still want to sing?

If the harmonies disappear? They can't take our place.

I believe she is different that you and I.

She can see things that we can't see. She is alone in

this modern life.

My voice is forever changed but the notes are all the

same. How long till you want to see? I think we want it

out of reach.

And if it's something that I'll never come back well I

told you not to look at me

Because it's a man made thought with a God-like hook

and we will never have to go down.

So praises to the war machine and the distances growing

thin and the hopelessness of a tiny earth and make

shift hit.

I watched as she walked away. I knew the moment she

turned her back.

She could never be the same again and she is never

coming back.

In the land of a thousand fathers she was born on the

fourth of July.

Well that don't mean she was made in America because

she was gone in the blink of and eye.

She belongs but she acts like a stranger. She collapsed

but she ain't free.

I am my only devil and they'll believe what they want

to believe.
