The Midwest sleeps beneath the thunder
Your Mother wakes and grabs your Father
A distant dream when I was younger
A bedroom stained in shades of purple
How sweet, a life worth living

Fruit

Whatcha' gonna do when he calls my name?
They don't change
I got the fruit, sweet and sticky on a silver plate
And so sweet to taste
When I throw it down on the Lord's day
I feel the hate
Showing extra skin ‘cuz I love the shame
Ya know I do, ya know I do
I'm your Bettie Page
Whatcha gonna do when he whistles at me?
Turn the other cheek
Somethin' in my work brings him to his knees
I don’t lift a finger but he knows it ain’t free
And sometimes I feel
A rush through my body ‘cuz these looks could kill
Pull my trigger hun
I’m lightning, I’m your thrill
I’m just a woman tainted by love
Time and time again
Looking for a friend
I’m just an ordinary figure
But they can’t see what it’s done to me
Oh Ooh
Make no mistake, ya know I kinda liked it
Oh Oooh
It’s difficult being her
But sometimes I just feel like…
I’m here for loving
All my life
Till I reach the end
Ooh
The things I do for you…

Haunted Tune

Oh what haunted tune can I bring you?
I’m comin’ round the mountain once again
And this time I'm runnin’ faster than
my feet can carry me home
So you better run boy
I will chase you
This time I’m back to shake the tree
Where I was buried wrongfully
When the hounds come I’m huntin’ after you
And your friends who shot me
Down, down
Isn’t it a pity
A few hearts break and they all wanna carry me away
I've made my mistakes
Can't fool love and you can't cheat fate
Since I've carried on like the breath within a song
I go back to the places where I loved so patiently
In those days the cottonwoods swayed
The sweat was sweet and the money well played
Those things lost their feeling
When God's hands reached for me
You used to
Swing my hands like merry-go-round
So when I got home
I could barely leave the ground
Isn’t it a pity
A quick hand deals and suddenly you’re carried away
With all your mistakes
Can’t lose what wasn’t yours to take
Down, down
Isn’t it a pity
A few hearts break and they all ‘wanna carry me away
I've made my mistakes
Can't fool love and you can't cheat fate
Ooh Ooh
Don’t wanna’ hang around
Silence is the loudest sound
It took my breath away
When a gentle voice
whispered my name
Ooh Ooh
Isn’t it a pity
To face your fears
When suddenly life carries you away
With all your mistakes
Hold what's yours just to give it away

Shout

Shout
I’m no longer heavy
With you in my arms
The spell has been broken
I’ve waited so long
I’m alive I can feel it
There’s no one in me
Let me go
Let me go
I can grow in my ways
I can grow in my ways
Wanna run far away
Wanna run far away
Wanna run, wanna run
Wanna run, wanna run
Wanna…
Shout!
I’m no longer living with you in my heart
I’ve finally spoken
I’ve waited so long
I’ve grown I can feel it
I’m turning away
From the old and the same
Wanna feel, wanna change
Still it rains and it rains
And it rains and it rains
Every…
Shout!
I’m no longer heavy
With you in my arms
With you in my arms
What am I supposed to do
I feel it in my heart
What am I supposed to do
I feel it in my heart
Whatta ya say
When your runnin
Runnin
Runnin Away
Shout!
I’m no longer living
With you in my arms
With you in my arms..
What am I supposed to do
I feel it in my heart
What am I supposed to do
I feel it in my heart
Shout
I’m no longer living
With you in my heart

Tommy spread his hands helplessly
Couldn't find a better man to love and hate
When he cries he feels as though
The whole world sings
Ooh Ooh
A nervous sparrow
Dust him off in the morning
Tommy spread his hands for his mothers sake
He hangs a cross above his bed so his soul will take
Nobody gave him another chance to be
The man he knew he never was but wanted to be
Tommy put down that gun
Take those pills that make your brain feel numb
What have you become
Oh Ohh
Unforgivable
Tommy your soul is gentle
You are safe with me
(With you I cried)
Tommy your head’s unstable
You are safe with me
(for you I lied)
If I lose you I’d lose myself
(I’d lose myself)
If I lose you I’d blame myself
Tell me what can I do
To save you
Dust your wings from the closet and soar
Higher and higher my lonely sparrow
When I close my eyes you are flying
I wait by your bedroom window
But you never made it home
Tommy your soul is gentle
you are safe with me
(With you I cried)
Tommy your heads unstable
You are safe with me
(For you I lied)
If I lose you I’d lose myself
(I’d lose myself)
If I lose you I’d blame myself
Tell me what can I do
To save you

When Days Meet Ends
04:24

Out of the gates
Comin home
Those once dead to me
Now I hold with empathy
We’re all alone
Each day awake
As time moves on
I can't help you see
Knowing what is close to me
Will one day be gone
How do I laugh when I don't know
If tomorrow brings me grief
How do I love more and more
if my love will reach an end
It’s life’s, life’s chains
Come away with me
I will watch you wherever you go
You're in my head in my heart running deep in my soul
And if the days meet ends and ends meet ends
I'll love more again and again
Again and again
Oh Ooh
Holding onto all the ones I have to lose
But I don't want to be apart of it
All my life I thought this was a truth I knew
But I can't bear the very thought of it
In the echoes will you hear me
How will you answer my call when I’ve left
No secrets complete me
I am embrace the end of it all
It all and it all
I think it’s life’s, life's chains
Come away with me
I will watch you wherever you go
You're in my head in my heart running deep in my soul
And if the days meet ends and ends meet ends
I'll love more again and again
Again and again
