Look in the mirror
What do you see
All of life staring back at me
Are you pleased
With what you've done
In your time underneath the sun
In this house
Where time has died
Nowhere to fear, nowhere to cry
On your own
No one around
On the monolith
Upside down
Try not to lean
On what you know
The sun will set
And the day will go
A white room
Now time is black
Once you go babe you can't go back
Take it easy
Lose your mind
I got bad habits
That kill all the time
Now we're here
In this place
I see no sounds and I hear no face
All I see
Is the pouring rain
In the lake of fire
In a world of pain

Moja knows that I can't come and get you
Out of your hiding place
Moja knows that you shouldn't run around with
Your eyeballs outta your face
And even Moja knows that you don't know what you're doing
With that old guitar in your hand
Now come on back let me play you one to show you
Who is who and who is not you
You know back when I was in high school
The guy Moja told me something
He said you can't let a Goddamn soul catch you lacking
Or else you're better off with nothing
Don't let anyone tell you
What the hell kinda music to play
I think I've got something to tell you now son
So you better just back away

Well the Earth looks a little bit smaller today
A few light years from where I was yesterday
I can feel it in my soul I was born to fly
Out here never know what you'll find
When you fly, on Discovery One
Well I've been riding on the trail
I'm one ox away from hell
Well I been riding on the trail
I've got one thousand pounds of hell
Seems like if I keep going
I might as well get a thrill
Well the passes are tight and
The snow is pounding on the wagon
Well the passes are tight and
The snow is pounding on the wagon
If I keep on going
You know I'm gonna do me
Some shaggin'
Well the price is rising
And the dollars keep getting short
Well the price is rising
And the dollars keep getting short
Well I know it's been a long, long
Back to Blaine County port
Well I passed the Donner party
And they was having lunch
Well I passed the Donner party
And they was having lunch
Something's wrong with them
I believe I have a hunch

It's something I had always dreamed of every day
Something I had said I wouldn't ever stray away
Starship aeroplane into the crash of universe
Heroes and villains all in the same shirts
There is just one threat to us
That will not go away
The Romulans land and they're here to stay
Fly with me
All across the galaxy you know you're free
I'm set into my phaser I am here to please
Don't forget your helmet
There's no air to breathe
In our Starfleet
Feeling torn on what to do
With no help from one of you
Gorn is chasing after me
I'll throw a rock in the breeze
Solar flares light the sky
As the Enterprise passes by
Deep Space Nine where to go
Take this pill and drink it slow
In a time of Armageddon
They're closing in on Rigel 7
Chekov go take the helm
I've got to enter the psychic realm
Fly with me
All across the galaxy you know you're free
I'm set into my phaser I am here to please
Don't forget your helmet
There's no air to breathe
In our Starfleet
Their phaser bolts tear us up
We need that hyper speed
Go to work and save the ship
Now Scotty send that beam
The Federation won't do us right
We gotta make it back alive
Send it through the outer rim
No landing spot close in sight

The news is out - all over town
That you've been seen - a-runnin' 'round
I know that I - should leave, but then
I just can't go - you win again.
This heart of mine - could never see
What ev'rybod - y knew but me
Just trusting you - was my great sin
What can I do - you win again.
I'm sorry for - your victim now
'Cause soon his head - like mine will bow
He'll give his heart - but all in vain
And someday say - you win again.
You have no heart - you have no shame
You take true love - and give the blame
I guess that I - should not complain
I love you still - you win again.

My babe don't stand no cheatin', my babe
Oh no she don't stand no cheatin', oh no
Oh no she don't stand no cheatin',

My baby don't stand no cheatin', my babe
Oh no she don't stand no cheatin', oh no
Oh no she don't stand no cheatin',
My babe, don't stand no cheatin', my babe

Said you wouldn't be home late tonight
I gave up waiting at seventeen past midnight
Now my only company's a half full glass of wine
Leave me no choice but to plot my revenge
You leave me no choice but to plot my revenge
Been so long, since I held your hand
You don't know how hard it can be
Thank God I've been blessed with a patient mind
'Cause what I want to happen won't happen in a very long time
Now my only company's a half full glass of wine
No choice but to plot my revenge
You leave me no choice but to plot my revenge
You leave me no choice but to plot my revenge
It's been so long, since I held your hand
You don't know how hard it can be
You don't know how hard it can be

Running after you
Chasing what is true
There's nothing like the night
To come and sacrifice
What is given away
One just cannot say
Why I'm gone tomorrow
And why I'm here today
Can't you see there's more to show
Than what we might already know
Can't you tell it ain't for good
Your mama didn't tell you
That we're all misunderstood
Forty-first and main
Put 'em all to shame
Always near and high
And out of sight
You turned me on
What else could go wrong
But it turns out
I'm not the one you want
Can't you see there's more to show
Than what we might already know
Can't you tell it ain't for good
Your mama didn't tell you
That we're all misunderstood

Look my baby, comin’ round the bend
Look my baby comin’ round the bend
They don’t find me now son, it's gonna be the end
Running through a nighttime street and the wind do howl
Running through a nighttime street and the wind do howl
But it do not mean I can’t run no-how
Goin' in to the outside, out to the in
Comin' 'round to the new and square to the old
I got the blues please mama and my flow is cold
Y’all understand what I'm tryna say
I said y'all understand what I'm tryna say
I can’t help nobody, just let me play
