Lyrics

She Loves Me


She's just a girl  I've come to know 
We've been good friends
But she wants something more to show
Through her eyes she seems to see what we could be
But things are moving way too fast
Shes asking to much from me

She was like a moth drawn to the flame
She flew too close and I'm to blame
What she thought was real love's fire 
Seemed to be just simple desire

Simple desire

She loves me
She loves me

No. I cant be in love Its way too complex, I have no time
She needs this much more than I do I can see it in her eyes
She asked me Do I really want to be alone 
She said her heart was broken and mine was made of stone

Do you love me
Do you love me
Could you love me

I dont know I dont know just how I feel
I dont know

She loves me
She loves me
She loves me

Mary's Secret Life


She's so crazy
She's so angry

Behind those sweet blue eyes
her mind works overtime
she got no time for love
she left mine behind

She's so crazy
She's so frustrating

She dance to a secret rhythm
She sings a different melody
She aint like no other
Got this strange pull on me

She's so crazy
She's so amazing

No matter where I am or what I do
Im thinking of her all the time
I wonder if she ever thinks of me
When she's in her fantasy life

All I want is to break thru
Thru the walls of her secret life
She's here but she's not really there
She's gone to her place where I cannot go

So here I am, she left me,
Left me here all alone
Mary, you just gotta let me in,
Don't leave here out in the cold

Oh, let me in
let me in, Mary

 

Wait for Me


Sometimes when I walk alone, you seem so far away
Somehow I let this get so bad, what seemed real was made of clay
Sometimes I cut me I want to bleed, still I can't seem to wash myself clean
No matter how much I want to believe, still I can't seem to forgive me

Then I here you calling my name,
When I standing out on the edge
When I feel I'm losing this game

You save me from myself, pray for me
Save me from my self, wait for me

Sometimes when I look at you, it leaves me burning inside
Then I wish for yesterday, thinking somehow that would make it all right
Through the din I hear you whisper my name, when I'm standing out on a ledge
When I'm about to lose this game you come and

Save me from myself, pray for me
Save me from myself, wait for me

When I am going under, won't you reach out and rescue me

Pray for me, for me
Wait for me, for me
You save me from myself, wait for me

 

Automan


Lonely, I walk a sleepless night
For a clone, my DNA ain't right

Control searches for me
There's a price on my head
A dis-allowed entity
I'm wanted live or dead

But Im a human being
At least thats what it seems
I can't be sure again

Created by a madman I am told that I am
A product of a megatrend

Hypothetically, I'm part of a master plan
In actuality, I really don't give a damn, no

I has occurred to me that I can possibly be
A pawn in someone else's game
What they took from me
Is my humanity
All hope has gone down the drain

I keep on running
And its no wonder
Hydraulics pumping
they got my number

They keep on coming
I hear their thunder
And if they catch me
Im going under.

Automan
I'm an atrocity
Automan
I'm part machine
Automan
Who'd believe an
Automan

I keep on running
And its no wonder
Hydraulics pumping
they got my number

They keep on coming
I hear their thunder
And if they catch me
Im going under.

Automan

This Time


Its all a lie
A fantasy
An angry child's game
A pretty candy
Wrapped in sterile cellophane

The truth is
Immaterial
A matter of what your taught to believe
Your spinning doctors words like bullets rip through me

Can't you see it this time
cant you see
whats going on around you
cant you see
its closing in around you

this time

There is blood
On your hands
Raise them up for all to see
Tears rain down in the sand

If you could feel love it'd be
Cold as the wind howling through your empty life
We dance a round and round and round
Whirling in a tragic embrace
Fallen from grace
Open your eyes you still won't see my face

Dont you see this time
This time
Oh this time

How can you not see
Those are your children dying there
How can you not hear
The cries of those whose lives dispair
How can you not see
This time?

Seventeen


My life was in front of me,  I would stand up and play
And sing to the world when I wanted to
My cares were as free as the air I breathed,
And I thought that all of my dreams would be real

They say that time keeps marching on without you
Maybe they're right if you let it
I think that they have over stated the truth
And it only goes as fast as you want it to

I can be seventeen again
All I have to do is close my eyes and pretend

Now its no secret that I'm easily distracted
Moving on from place to place, one thing or another.

But things have a way wrapping up around you
Like a beautiful vine, but holding in you in just one space,
So many colors so many places so many things to choose so many paths had laid before me,
But opening one door means you must close the others forever behind you
I was happy to choose, my life, my love, my hope, through that open door

I can be seventeen again
All I have to do is close my eyes and pretend

Now its no secret that I'm easily distracted
Moving on from place to place, one thing or another

Im feeliing, Im seeing, Im bursting out, I'm exploding into space
Its all right there in front of me I can reach out and touch it
make it my own.

I am seventeen again
Here I go making believe I'm young
again
