1. Too High To Fly (Edit)
We sold our sons and we sold our daughters
Pretty soon we'll sell our brothers
We took the gold, but the gold was water
I tried to save the world, but I failed her
She cries the tears that I never left her
I left them all behind
You were sitting in your darkest hour
Summer's gone
We tried to make the world so much better
We send our words in a pretty perfumed letter
You sit alone in your ivory towers
I'm just one person, I don't matter
You tap the needle, and you went to heaven
You left it all behind
Now you're feeling oh so better
Too high to fly
You should've seen me there (Yeah)
Too high to fly, my baby
But you were almost there
The sun shines down on my face
But you don't feel a thing (no, no, no)
The lines on the street, and the some rises
You looked too long for heaven, now you're blinded, baby
Another morning sun
Another day gone by
The storm's coming
With the pouring rain
Too high to fly
You should've seen me there (Yeah)
Too high to fly, my baby
But you were almost there
The storm comes with the pouring rain (Salvation)
The lines in the street, and the smoke rises
Wanderin' round for forty days, hope you find it
Too high to fly
You should've seen me there (Yeah)
Too high to fly, my baby
But you were almost there
2. Shadows Of Life
Tale of woe open up my eyes
Keeping me from the other side
Satisfy what my soul believes
If it could only see
On a red sky
In a green sea
On a black night
I fell to my knees
Save it for the innocent
Save it for the cruel
And leave it in the shadows of life
On a ship full of hopes and dreams
Took a trip down to misery
Realized that I'd been before
I found it hard to believe
On a red sky
In a green sea
On a black night
I fell to my knees
Save it for the innocent
Save it for the cruel
And leave it in the shadows of life
Read between the lines
These are angry times
Save it for the innocent
Save it for the cruel
And leave it in the shadows of life
3. Hole In My Head
4. Inside Looking Out
