Rise from the Earth Head into the Sun Here lies everything That you had begun In Heaven is my woman Guilty as the Moon She lies silvery and smooth In the afternoon The rhythms of the Earth Beating in the ground Beating like my baby's heart Listen to that sound

Love Me Do 02:36
If you want me to Get down on my knees And beg you darling please Forgive me I will gladly do Whatever it is you want me to Just as long as you Love me do Love me like I love you I will sell my soul To get yours back from Hell I'll train the dogs to yell 'Love me do Love me like I love you' The crickets in the morning The snakes in the evening I'll pick you up my darling So you can bring me down, down ,down, down I will gladly do Whatever it is you want me to Just as long as you Love me do Love me like I love you Love me do Love me like I love you Love me do Tell me that you do

Slow in the morning Faster at night Fields have gone to fallow But crawling with life The tilt of the longer light Idle hands wait for the moon carve the hours from hungry shadows Slow, I'm coming through the day Walking through windows Staring down the doors Feeling the grass grow under the floors Lonely words circle back The wind sends the clothesline to spin Comb the eyes from hungry shadows Slow, I'm coming through the day It is a prayer for me It is a prayer The sky hung over me Swallowed me in I heard your voice I called your name Into the wasteland the fire came It took our sanctuary it took our lives Among the fallen trees You saw me lie Calling for fortitude The fire renders old hearts to gleam Cut the dark from hidden diamonds Slow, I'm coming through the day Oh my lord, please help me through the day Oh now my god, please help me through the day.

Well my friend We have finally reached the end And now it's time for the judgement And I feel bad To bring your family into this Your brother, your sister and your dad He came round with his condescending smile Told me about how hard I had had it But he can see that it had nothing to do with me You just want to be free How'd it get so bad? Lying in this bed Sinking to the bottom I've been thinking that I just might Try to let it go Hoped and prayed that we'd meet up again some day Laugh and play like a family But I can see that it had nothing to do with me You just want to be free How'd it get so bad? Sitting on my ass Drinking from the bottle I've been thinking that I just might Try to let it go Oh my Lord, if you'd open up that door You'd see I'm worth all the trouble You can see that it had nothing to do with me She just wants to be free She just wants to be free

We won the race Turned back again Back to the heart Back to the brain We won the race Took their women home Back to the field Back to the stone

Ugly 04:04
The world is ugly Guess you know that by now People are bastards Guess you know that by now Life is painful And it will screw you any way it knows how Life is vicious One day at a time Your job is agonisingly meaningless One day at a time You can stop and smoke a cigarette if you want to But you'll sure be working overtime The world is ugly Guess you know that by now Life is painful Course you know that by now You can by your love a diamond ring if you want to But she'll break your heart any way she knows how Any way she knows how

Three little lambs on a mountainside A cold wind blows See those lambs run wild Nailed to a cross in the midday sun Seen better days Said the father to his son Seen better days Shine on everyone Conversations running thin Drink clean water Catch your breath And the light it's growing dim With the beating of your chest Poor little lamb he's gone Daddy's dead, you know Three little fish swimming in the stream Mother said 'Girl, I'll fish you from that dream' Poisoned river and a poisoned sky A dull young man Poisoning his mind Cold black smoke Poisoning the light Conversations running thin Drink clean water Catch your breath And the light it's growing dim With the beating of your chest Poor little lamb he's gone Daddy's dead, you know To the abbatoir you go

Golden Green 03:34
Coming down on a train in the morning Gonna see my baby Coming down on a train in the evening Gonna see my old lady From the cold mountain summit To the golden green valley below Do you know what it is to be a'healing? I'm healing momma Do you know what it is to be a'feeling? I'm feeling alright From the cold mountain summit To the golden green valley below Dear Jesus, I'm sorry I went off without you I thought I'd be alright Dear Buddha, I'm sorry I forgot all about you I was lost in my own mind From the cold mountain summit To the golden green valley below

I loved you all through the winter I loved your fruit on the vine I loved you down wind in summer Baby, how you were mine Whenever you're near me I stumble Whenever I see you I'm blind You silence the nightmare inside me Baby, how you were mine Still see your face in the fire Still feel your breast in my claw Been more than ten years without you Still I'm hopelessly yours The wearying years they do nothing The walls of love know no time I'll sit in here musing forever About baby, how you were mine Baby, how you were mine Baby, how you were mine
