[Ophelia]
Ah, ah, when I was younger
Ah, ah, should have known better
And I can't feel no remorse
And you don't feel nothing back
Ah, ah, got a new girlfriend
He feels like he's on top
And I don't feel no remorse
And you can't see past my blinders
Ophelia, you've been on my mind girl since the flood
Ophelia, heaven help a fool who falls in love
Ah, ah, got a little paycheck
You got big plans and you gotta move
And I don't feel nothing at all
And you can't feel nothing small
Honey I love you, that's all she wrote
Ophelia, you've been on my mind girl like a drug
Ophelia, heaven help a fool who falls in love
Ophelia, you've been on my mind girl since the flood
Ophelia, heaven help a fool who falls in love
Ophelia, you've been on my mind girl like 7 3rug
Ophelia, heaven help a fool who falls in love
[Cleopatra]
I was Cleopatra, I was young and an actress
When you knelt by my mattress, and asked for my hand
But I was sad you asked it, as I laid in a black dress
With my father in a casket, I had no plans
And I left the footprints, the mud stained on the carpet
And it hardened like my heart did when you left town
But I must admit it, that I would marry you in an instant
Damn your wife, I'd be your mistress just to have you around
But I was late for this, late for that, late for the love of my life
And when I die alone, when I die alone, when I die I'll be on time
While the church discouraged, any lust that burned within me
Yes my flesh, it was my currency, but I held true
So I drive a taxi, and the traffic distracts me
From the strangers in my backseat, they remind me of you
But I was late for this, late for that, late for the love of my life
And when I die alone, when I die alone, when I die I'll be on time
And the only gifts from my Lord were a birth and a divorce
But I've read this script and the costume fits, so I'll play my part
I was Cleopatra, I was taller than the rafters
But that's all in the past now, gone with the wind
Now a nurse in white shoes leads me back to my guestroom
It's a bed and a bathroom
And a place for the end
I won't be late for this, late for that, late for the love of my life
And when I die alone, when I die alone, when I die I'll be on time
[Sleep On The Floor]
Pack yourself a toothbrush dear
Pack yourself a favorite blouse
Take a withdrawal slip, take all of your savings out
Cause if we don't leave this town
We might never make it out
I was not born to drown, baby come on
Forget what Father Brennan said
We were not born in sin
Leave a note on your bed
Let your mother know you're safe
And by the time she wakes
We'll have driven through the state
We'll have driven through the night, baby come on
If the sun don't shine on me today
And if the subways flood and bridges break
Will you lay yourself down and dig your grave
Or will you rail against your dying day
And when we looked outside, couldn't even see the sky
How do you pay the rent, is it your parents
Or is hard work dear, holding the atmosphere
I don't wanna live like that
If the sun don't shine on me today
If the subways flood and bridges break
Jesus Christ can't save me tonight
Put on your dress, yes wear something nice
Decide on me, yea decide on us
Oh, oh, oh, Illinois, Illinois
Pack yourself a toothbrush dear
Pack yourself a favorite blouse
Take a withdrawal slip, take all of your savings out
Cause if we don't leave this town
We might never make it out
[Angela]
When you left this town, with your windows down
And the wilderness inside
Let the exits pass, all the tar and glass
'Til the road and sky align
The strangers in this town
They raise you up just to cut you down
Oh, Angela, it's a long time coming
And your Volvo lights lit up green and white
With the cities on the signs
But you held your course to some distant war
In the corners of your mind
From the second time around
The only love I ever found
Oh Angela it's a long time coming
Home at last
Were you safe and warm in your coat of arms
With your fingers in a fist
Did you hear the notes, all those static codes
In the radio abyss?
Strangers in this town
They raise you up just to cut you down
Oh Angela it's a long time coming
Oh Angela spent your whole life running away
Home at last
Home at last
Vacancy, hotel room, lost in me, lost in you
Angela, on my knee, I belong, I believe
Home at last
Home at last
Home at last
Home at last
Home at last

[My Eyes]
Oh, the devil's inside
You opened the door
You gave him a ride
Too young to know, too old to admit
That you couldn't see how it ends
What did you do to my eyes
What did you sing to that lonely child
Promised it all but you lied
You better slow down baby soon
It's all or nothing to you
The glow of Hollywood signs
They sold you a bridge
They fed you the lines (they fed you to lions)
You always confused your servants for friends
But you couldn't see how it ends
It's all or nothing to you
What did you do to my eyes
What did you say to my only child
Promised your love but you lied
You better slow down baby soon
It's all or nothing to you
What did you do to my eyes
What did you sing to that lonely child
Promised it all but you lied
You better slow down baby soon
Ah, ah, when I was younger
Ah, ah, should have known better
And I can't feel no remorse
And you don't feel nothing back
Ah, ah, got a new girlfriend

And you can't see past my blinders

О, Анжела, наступает много времени
Наконец-то дома
Вы были в безопасности и теплым в своем герме
Пальцами в кулаке
Вы слышали заметки, все эти статические коды
В радиочастоте?
Незнакомцы в этом городе
Они поднимают тебя, чтобы просто срезать тебя
О, Анжела, наступает много времени
О, Анжела провела всю свою жизнь, убегая
Наконец-то дома
Наконец-то дома
Вакансия, гостиничный номер, потерянный во мне, потерянный в тебе
Анжела, на колене, я принадлежу, я верю
Наконец-то дома
Наконец-то дома
Наконец-то дома
Наконец-то дома
Наконец-то дома

[Мои глаза]
О, дьявол внутри
Ты открыл дверь
Ты бросил его
Слишком молод, чтобы знать, слишком стар, чтобы признаться
Что вы не могли видеть, как это заканчивается
Что ты сделал с моими глазами
Что ты пел этому одинокому ребенку
Обещал все это, но ты солгал
Тебе лучше замедлить ребенка в ближайшее время
Это все или ничего для вас
Свечение голливудских знаков
Они продали вам мост
Они кормили вам линии (они кормили вас львами)
Вы всегда запутали своих слуг для друзей
Но вы не могли понять, как это заканчивается
Это все или ничего для вас
Что ты сделал с моими глазами
Что ты сказал моему единственному ребенку
Обещал твою любовь, но ты солгал
Тебе лучше замедлить ребенка в ближайшее время
Это все или ничего для вас
Что ты сделал с моими глазами
Что ты пел этому одинокому ребенку
Обещал все это, но ты солгал
Тебе лучше замедлить ребенка в ближайшее время
Наконец-то дома
