Living In the World, Not on It

There are missing lyrics in Persian, but I'll find 'em... Favored son Turn in the garden Shades of one Sins forgotten Favored signs to find hope In the rounds of life Favored rhymes to find hope In the sands of life Favored son Fence in your heart Saviored son Sins forgotten

I sat within the valley green I sat me with my true love. My sad heart strove the two between The old love and the new love. The old for her the new That made me think on Ireland dearly. While the soft wind blew down the glade and shook the golden barley. T'was hard the woeful words to frame To break the ties that bound us. But harder still to bear the shame of foreign chains around us. And so I said the mountain glen I'll meet at morning early. And I'll join the bold united men While soft winds shook the barley. T'was sad I kissed away her tears My fond arm round her flinging. When a foe, man's shot burst on our ears From out the wild woods ringing. A bullet pierced my true love's side In life's young spring so early. And on my breast in blood she died While soft winds shook the barley. But blood for blood without remorse I've ta'en at oulart hollow. I've lain my true love's clay like corpse Where I full soon must follow. Around her grave I...

I thought that you knew it all Well you've seen it ten times before. I thought that you had it down With both your feet on the ground. I love slow...slow but deep. Feigned affections wash over me. Dream on my dear And renounce temporal obligations. Dream on my dear It's a sleep from which you may not awaken. You build me up then you knock me down. You play the fool while I play the clown. We keep time to the beat of an old slave drum. You raise my hopes then you raise the odds You tell me that I dream too much Now I'm serving time in disillusionment. I don't believe you anymore...I don't believe you. I thought that I knew it all I'd seen all the signs before. I thought that you were the one In darkness my heart was won. You build me up then you knock me down. You play the fool while I play the clown. We keep time to the beat of an old slave drum. You raise my hopes then you raise the odds You tell me that I dream too much Now I'm serving time in a domestic g...

You saw sagacious Solomon You know what came of him, To him complexities seemed plain. He cursed the hour that gave birth to him And saw that everything was vain. How great and wise was Solomon. The world however did not wait But soon observed what followed on. It's wisdom that had brought him to this state. How fortunate the man with none. You saw courageous Caesar next You know what he became. They deified him in his life Then had him murdered just the same. And as they raised the fatal knife How loud he cried: you too my son! The world however did not wait But soon observed what followed on. It's courage that had brought him to that state. How fortunate the man with none. You heard of honest Socrates The man who never lied: They weren't so grateful as you'd think Instead the rulers fixed to have him tried And handed him the poisoned drink. How honest was the people's noble son. The world however did not wait But soon observed what followed on. It's honesty th...

I feel safe, I feel warm when you're here, When I do no wrong, I am cured, when I'm by your side. I'm alright, alright. I am safe, when I am with you, And I feel warm, If you want me to, I am cured, when I'm by your side. I'm alright. Careful where you stand, Careful where you lay your head.

Careful where you stand, Careful where you lay your head, It's true we're always looking out for one another. So I like a quiet time please, Yeah, I like a quiet time. Careful where you stand, Now, careful where you stand.

Smoke is rising from the houses People burying their dead I ask somebody what the time is But time doesn't matter to them yet People talking without speaking Trying to take what they can get I ask you if you remember Prospekt, how could I forget? Drums, here it comes Don't you wish that life can be as simple As fish swimming round in a barrel? When you've got the gun Oh when I run, here it comes We're just two little figures in a soup bowl Trying to get to any kind of control But I wasn't one Now here I lie on my own in a separate sky Here I lie on my own in a separate sky I don't wanna die on my own here tonight But here I lie on my own in a separate sky

Then there was rain The sky wore a veil of gold and green Night is the bride of a lonely day Time just floated Then there was rain The sound foundations are crumbling To the ground comes a pyramid tumbling Time just floated away We can watch it and stay And we can listen Oh rainy day come around Sometimes I just want it to slow down And we're separated now And oh but I love when you come over to the house I love it when you come over to my house Then there was rain I spent the night with the queen of Spain My lonely little heart well it broke again Time so vicious The deeper that the knife goes in The more you win You end up with less than where you begin The deeper that the knife goes in Oh rainy day come round Sometimes I just want it to slow down We're separated now And oh but I love it when you come over to the house I love it when you come over to my house And I love it when you come over to the house I love it when you come over to my house I love it when you come over to...

Scared of losing all the time He wrote it in a letter He was a friend of mine He heard you could see your future Inside a glass of water The ripples and the rhymes He asked Will I see heaven in mine? That is just the way it was Nothing could be better And nothing ever was Oh they say you could see your future, Inside a glass of water With riddles and the rhymes Will I see heaven in mine? Oh Oh Oh Ah Son, don't ask, Neither how full nor empty is your glass Cling to the mast Spend your whole life living in the past Going nowhere fast So he wrote it on the wall The hollowest of halos Is no halo at all Televisions said and past In figurines and leaders saying nothing at all And he chimed stars in heaven aligned Oh Oh Oh Ah Son, don't ask, Neither how full nor empty is your glass Cling to the mast Spend your whole life living in the past Going nowhere fast What are we drinking when were done? Glasses of water...

I used to rule the world Seas would rise when I gave the word Now in the morning I sleep alone Sweep the streets I used to own I used to roll the dice Feel the fear in my enemy's eyes Listen as the crowd would sing "Now the old king is dead! Long live the king!" One minute I held the key Next the walls were closed on me And I discovered that my castles stand Upon pillars of salt and pillars of sand I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing Roman Cavalry choirs are singing Be my mirror, my sword and shield My missionaries in a foreign field For some reason I can't explain Once you go there was never Never an honest word And that was when I ruled the world It was the wicked and wild wind Blew down the doors to let me in Shattered windows and the sound of drums People couldn't believe what I'd become Revolutionaries wait For my head on a silver plate Just a puppet on a lonely string Oh who would ever want to be king? I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing Roman Cavalry choi...

How long before I get in? Before it starts, before I begin? How long before you decide? Before I know what it feels like? Where To, where do I go? If you never try, then you'll never know. How long do I have to climb, Up on the side of this mountain of mine? Look up, I look up at night, Planets are moving at the speed of light. Climb up, up in the trees, every chance that you get, is a chance you seize. How long am I gonna stand, with my head stuck under the sand? I'll start before I can stop, before I see things the right way up. All that noise, and all that sound, All those places I got found. And birds go flying at the speed of sound, to show you how it all began. Birds came flying from the underground, if you could see it then you'd understand? Ideas that you'll never find, All the inventors could never design. The buildings that you put up, Japan and China all lit up. The sign that I couldn't read, or a light that I couldn't see, some things you have to bel...

Oh brother I can't, I can't get through I've been trying hard to reach you, cause I don't know what to do Oh brother I can't believe it's true I'm so scared about the future and I wanna talk to you Oh I wanna talk to you You can take a picture of something you see In the future where will I be? You can climb a ladder up to the sun Or write a song nobody has sung Or do something that's never been done Are you lost or incomplete? Do you feel like a puzzle, you can't find your missing piece? Tell me how do you feel? Well I feel like they're talking in a language I don't speak And they're talking it to me So you take a picture of something you see In the future where will I be? You can climb a ladder up to the sun Or a write a song nobody has sung Or do something that's never been done Do something that's never been done So you don't know were you're going, and you wanna talk And you feel like you're going where you've...

When I was a young boy I tried to listen And I wanna feel like that Little white shadows, blink and miss them Part of a system I am If you ever feel like something's missing? Things you'll never understand Little white shadows, sparkle and glisten Part of a system plan All this noise, I'm waking up All the space I'm taking up All this sound is breaking up Ohhhh... Maybe you get what you wanted Maybe you stumbled upon it Everything you ever wanted In a permanent state Maybe you'll know when you see it Maybe if you say it, you'll mean it And when you find it, you keep it In a permanent state A permanent state When I was a young boy I tried to listen Don't you wanna feel like that? We're part of the human race and All of the stars and the outer space We're part of the system plan All this noise, I'm waking up And all the space, I'm taking up I said I cannot hear you, you're breaking up Maybe you get what you wanted Maybe you stumbled upon it...

You're in control, is there anywhere you wanna go? You're in control, is there anything you wanna know? The future's for discovering The space in which we're travelling From the top of the first page To the end of the last day From the start in your own way You just want somebody listening to what you say It doesn't matter who you are It doesn't matter who you are Under the surface trying to break through Deciphering the codes in you I need a compass, draw me a map I'm on the top, I can't get back Whoa whoa The first line on the first page To the end of the last page From the start in your own way You just want somebody listening to what you say It doesn't matter who you are It doesn't matter who you are You just want Somebody listening to what you say Oh, you just want somebody listening to what you say It doesn't matter who you are It doesn't matter who you are Is there anybody out there who Is lost and hurt and lonely too Are they blee...

Lights go out and I can't be saved Tides that I tried to swim against You've put me down upon my knees Oh I beg, I beg and plead (singing) Come out of things unsaid, shoot an apple of my head (and a) Trouble that can't be named, tigers waiting to be tamed (singing) You are, you are Confusion never stops, closing walls and ticking clocks (gonna) Come back and take you home, I could not stop, that you now know (singing) Come out upon my seas, curse missed opportunities (am I) A part of the cure I am my part of the disease (singing) You are [x6] And nothing else compares Oh no nothing else compares And nothing else compares You are [continues in background] Home, home, where I wanted to go

Where do we go nobody knows? I've gotta say I'm on my way down God give me style and give me grace God put a smile upon my face Where do we go to draw the line?

I awake to find no peace of mind I said, how do you live as a fugitive Down here where I cannot see so clear I said, what do I know Show me the right way to go And the spies came out of the water But you're feeling so bad cos you know But the spies hide out in every corner But you can’t touch them no Cos they’re all spies They’re all spies I awake to see that no one is free We’re all fugitives Look at the way we live Down here I cannot sleep from fear no I said which way do I turn I forget everything I learned But the spies came out of the water But you’re feeling so bad cos you know But the spies hide out in every corner, But you can’t touch them no Cos they’re all spies they’re all spies And if we don’t hide here They’re going to find us If we don’t hide now They’re going to catch us where we sleep And if we don’t hide here They’re going to find us And the spies came out of the water And you’re feeling so good cos you know That those spies hide out in every corner They can’t touc...

So I look in your direction, But you pay me no attention, do you. I know you don't listen to me. 'cause you say you see straight through me, don't you. And on and on from the moment I wake, To the moment I sleep, I'll be there by your side, Just you try and stop me, I'll be waiting in line, Just to see if you care. Did she want me to change? Well I change for good. And I want you to know. But you always get your way, I wanted to say, Don't you Shiver? Shiver, Shiver. I'll always be waiting for you, So you know how much I need you, But you never even see me, do you? And is this is my final chance of getting you?

Did she want me to change? Well I change for good. And I want you to know. But you always get your way, I wanted to say, Don't you Shiver? Don't you Shiver?...

You said I'm gonna buy this place and burn it down I'm gonna put it six feet underground I'm gonna buy this place and watch it fall Stand here beside me baby in the crumbling walls Oh I'm gonna buy this place and start a fire Stand here until I fill all your hearts desire Because I'm gonna buy this place and see it burn And do back the things it did to you in return Huuuhhhh [x4] You said I'm gonna buy a gun and start a war If you can tell me something worth fighting for Oh and I'm gonna buy this place is what I said Blame it upon a rush of blood to the head Honey, all the movements you're starting to make See me crumble and fall on my face And I know the mistakes that I've made See it all disappear without a trace And they call as they beckon you on They say start as you need to go on Start as you need to go on Said I'm gonna buy this place and see it go Stand here beside me baby, watch the orange glow Some'll laugh and some just sit and cry...

I shoot it low, kill the flow Ruin myself out on the north shore I make it one, watch the sun Sink behind the trees with the keys to the kingdom I shoot it high, let it fly Bury myself under a blue sky I see a scheme, make it clean Drown in blue rivers under a muffled scream Call your number wishing I could make amends And I'm caught in a space between my head and my face again I hit it down, kill the sound Ruin myself out on the northbound I make it one, kill the sun Bury my disease with the keys to the kingdom Call your number wishing I could make amends And I'm caught in a space between my head and my face again I shoot it low - Shoot. it. low Kill the flow - Kill. the. flow Ruin myself out on the north shore Call your number wishing I could make amends And I'm caught in a space between my head and my face again Call your number wishing I could make amends And I'm caught in a space between my head and my face again U.N.K.L.E. (incredible song!)

...where - or when - would you go? I suspect I'd have many stops, but I'd go to the Titanic first. The journey would be amazing. And who wouldn't want to see a ship that was purported to be unsinkable? The hardest pert would be not telling anyone that the damn thing not only can sink but absolutely will - and 1,400 people will be dead before dawn. The ship, although huge, sank very quickly. Now, the only issue I'd have is I'd need to stay and administer any first aid I could. That may sound laughable, but I know more as an EMT than most nurses did in 1912. CPR was mostly unknown until the 1950s. It was formulated by Dr. H. R. Silvester in 1911, but was not trained until 1962. Shocking someone with an AED was discovered in the 1950s but not implemented in common use until the 1960s, I think. When I began riding there were only monophasic AEDs but in the latter part of that year, the biphasic AEDs came out for us. When I came to my current place, I was appalled to fi...
