The whole world will be different soon
The whole world will be relieving               {2X}

You, you've been taught
We'd been the same, now they got you in line
Stand behind the stripes
There will be order, so give it a good mind

The whole world will be different soon
The whole world will be relieving               {2X}

And by name
The name they gave me
The name I'm letting go..

The whole world will be different soon
The whole world will be relieving               {3X}
The whole world will be different soon, soon

FAITHFUL
Back of the wall says that no one's slept here
It's rare to come upon a bridge that has not been around
Or been stepped on
But if I'd the notion, we'd hasten our prayers
The man upstairs is used to all of this noise
I'm through with screaming

Echoes nobody hears, it goes, it goes, it goes
Like echoes nobody hears, it goes, it goes, it goes
We're faithful, we all believe, we all believe it       {4X}

Echoes nobody hears, it goes, it goes, it goes  {2X}
We're faithful, we all believe, we all believe it       {4X}

And our ??
Belief in the game controls that keeps us in a box of fear
We never listen
Voice inside so drowned out
Drowned you are, you are, you are a furry thing
And everything is you
Me you, you me, it's all related
What's a boy to do?
Just be darling and I will be too
Faithful to you

NO WAY
Here's a token of my open-ness
Of my need to not disappear
How I'm feeling, so revealing to me
I found my mind too clear
I just need someone to be there for.. me
I just want someone to be there for.. me

All the static in my attic-a
Shoots down my side nerve
To the ocean of my platitudes
Longitudes, latitudes, it's so absurd
I just need someone to be there for..
I just want someone to be there for..
Someone to be there for..

'Cause I'll stop trying to make a difference
I'm not trying to make a difference
I'll stop trying to make a difference
No way                                  {2X}

Ooh, let's call in an angel                     {3X}

'Cause I'll stop trying to make a difference
I'm not trying to make a difference
I'll stop trying to make a difference
No way                                  {2X}
No way, no way
Let's call in an angel
Who's calling an angel?

GIVEN TO FLY
He could have tuned in, tuned in
But he tuned out
A bad time, nothing could save him
Alone in a corridor, waiting, locked out
He got up out of there, ran for hundreds of miles
He made it to the ocean, had a smoke in a tree
The wind rose, upset him down on his knees

A wave came crashin' like a fist to the jaw
Deliver him wings high, look at him now
Arms wide open with the sea as his float
Oh, power, oh

He's.. flying
Oh, oh
High.. wide, oh

He floated back down 'cause he wanted to share
His key to the locks on the chains he saw everywhere
But first he stripped and then he was stabbed
By faceless men, the fuckers
He still stands

And he still gives his love, he just gives it away
The love he receives is the love that is saved
And sometimes he's seen a strange spot in the sky
A human being that was given to fly

High.. flying
Oh, oh
High.. flying
Oh, oh

WISH LIST
I wish I was a neutron bomb, for once I could go off
I wish I was a sacrifice but somehow still lived on
I was a sentimental ornament you hung on
The Christmas tree, I wish I was the star that went on top
I wish I was the evidence, I wish I was the grounds
For 50 million hands upraised and open toward the sky

I wish I was a silhouette, someone who waited for me
I wish I was as fortunate, as fortunate as me
I wish I was a messenger and all the news good
I wish I was the full moon shining off a Camaro's hood

I wish I was an alien at home behind the sun
I wish I was the souvenir you kept your house key on
I wish I was the pedal brake that you depended on
I wish I was the verb 'to trust' and never let you down

I wish I was a radio song               {FADE}

PILATE
Talk of circles and punching out
Looking in, drawing circles down
Falling up the south marking ground
Talking out of turn, drawing circles down

Like Pilate, I have a dog               {3X}
{Obeys, listens, kisses}

Walks me out of town
Still, one is a crowd
Making angels in the dirt
Looking up, looking all around

Like Pilate, I have a dog               {2X}
{Obeys, listens, kisses}

Stunned by my own reflection
It's looking back, sees me too clearly
And I swore I'd never go there again
Not unlike a friend that politely drags you down, you down, you down

Like Pilate, I have a dog               {4X}
{Obeys, listens, kisses}

DO THE EVOLUTION
Woo..
I'm ahead, I'm a man
I'm the first mammal to wear pants, yeah
I'm at peace with my lust
I can kill 'cause in God I trust, yeah
It's evolution, baby

I'm a piece of the man
I'm the stocks on the day of the crash
On the loose, I'm a shard
All alone in here, I'll flatten 'em out, yeah
It's learned behavior, uh huh
It's evolution, baby

Admire me, admire my home
Admire my song, here's my coat
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
This land is mine, this land is free
I'll do what I want but irresponsibly
It's evolution, baby

I'm a thief, I'm a liar
Here's my church, I sing in the choir:
{choir interlude}

Admire me, admire my home
Admire my song, admire my clothes
'Cause we know, appetite for a nightly feast
Those ignorant Indians got nothin' on me
Nothin', why?
Because, it's evolution, baby!

I am ahead, I am advanced
I am the first mammal to make beds, yeah
I crawled the earth, but now I'm high
Twenty dead, why don't you build a fire?
It's evolution, baby    {2X}
Do the evolution
Come on, come on, come on

UNTITLED (labeled: WHALES)
We're all crazy
We're all crazy and we're       {6X}

MANY FAST CARS (MFC)
Sliding out of reverse and you're driving
We will be turning round that street
Off in the sunset she'll ride
She can remember a time that I stood back
Side of the road, spilled like wine there
She's out on her own and I'm high

Please don't leave it here
Past ??
She's disappeared

They said that timing was everything
Made him want to be everywhere
There's a lot to be said for nowhere

Please don't leave it here
Past ??
Please disappear
Please don't leave it here
Past ??
Fuck it, we'll disappear

LOWLIGHT
Clouds roll by
Healing is what they
Or is it just my way
Wind goes by, lowlight
Side-tracked, lowlight
Can't see my tracks, yours sit way back

Can I be here all alone?
Clear a path to my home
Blood runs dry
Books and jealousy tell me wrong
I will feel calm
Voice blows by, lowlight
Car crash, lowlight
Can't wear my mask, your first, my last

Voice goes by
Two birds is what they'll see
Getting lost upon their way
Wind rolls by, lowlight
Eyesight, lowlight
I need the light
I'll find my way from wrong, what's real?
The dream I see

IN HIDING
I shut and lock the front door
No way in or out
I turned and walked the hallway
And pulled the curtains down
I knelt and emptied the mouth of every club around
But nothing's sound, nothing's sound

I'd stay but my last cab left me
Ignored all my rounds
Soon I was seeing visions and cracks along the walls
They're upside down

I swallow my words to keep from lying
I swallow my face just to keep from biting, I, I..
I swallowed my breath and went deep, I was diving, diving
I surfaced when all of my ? was enlightened
I'm in hiding           {4X}

It's been about three days now
Since I've been aground
No longer overwhelmed and it seems so simple now
It's funny when things change so much
It's all state of mind

I swallowed my words to keep from lying
I swallowed my face just to keep from biting
I swallowed my breath and went deep, I was diving, I was diving
I surfaced and all around me was enlightened
Now I'm in hiding       {8X}

PUSH ME, PULL ME
{'Get me out of here' - in warped, sped-up voice}
{'It's what I see' - sample from "Happy When I'm Crying}
I had a false belief
I thought I came here to stay
We're all just visiting
All just breaking like waves
The oceans made me, but who came up with love?
Push me, pull me, or pull me out                {2X}

So if there were no angels, would there be no sin?
You better stop me before I begin
But let me say: if I behave, can you arrange a spacious hole in the ground
Somewhere nice, make it nice
Where the land meets my pride
Push me, pull me, or pull me out                {4X}

Like a cloud dropping rain
I'm discarding all thought
I'll dry up, leaving puddles on the ground
I'm like an opening band for the sun
Push me, pull me                                {6X}
I've had enough, said enough, felt enough, I'm fine

ALL THE YESTERDAYS
Don't you think you oughta rest?
Don't you think you oughta lay you head down?
Don't you think you want to sleep?
Don't you think you oughta lay your head down tonight?

Don't you think you've done enough?
Oh, don't you think you've got enough, well maybe..
You don't think there's time to stop?
There's time enough for you to lay your head down, tonight, tonight

Maybe it'll wash away
All those yesterdays

What are you running from?
Taking pills to get along
Creating walls to call your own
So no one catches you drifting off and
Doing all the things that we all do

Maybe it'll wash away
All those yesterdays
All those yesterdays
All those paper plates

You've got time, you've got time to escape
There's still time, it's no crime to escape
It's no crime to escape, it's no crime to escape
There's still time, so escape
It's no crime, crime..

All those yesterdays            {9X}

NOTES:
The song with the most lyrical ambiguities is "Many Fast Cars," in which
the second line of the chorus is almost totally unintelligible (has anyone
cross-referenced this with the live version Eddie played in Rome last
December?). The first line of the second verse in "Faithful" is also
fairly unintelligible. Indistinct lines are indicated simply with a "?".
