   Letra

   The sun is up and the shades are all pulled down I'm more paranoid with every little sound Like the leaf blower blowing the leaves around And a siren wailing on the other side of town Oh the tvs on and the colors really hurt my head If I could think straight I'd wish I was dead Or curled up naked in my lover's bed Instead I'm hanging over Hell suspended by a single thread [chorus:] And I don't recall who said it at this time That your enemies grow strong on what you leave behind I built it up and the wolf he came around He huffed and puffed and the house fell down With a rolled up note I'm hovering on that line Three days on a diet of cocaine and wine And a little weed just to level me sometime I put the clock in the drawer 'cause I've cancelled out the time [repeat chorus] So don't knock on my door, don't try to call I'm holed up in this room talking to the wall When you're high as this you think you know it all When you're this deep in there's no place else to fall [repeat chorus] And still that saying gets inside my mind That your enemies grow strong on what you leave behind I built it up and the wolf he came around He huffed and puffed and the house fell down
6. Blues Never Fade Away4:45

   Letra

   He wasn't famous but I sure did love him I've got his picture in a little frame He lost his life to a big disease before it even had a name But there's so many more and I've lost count The hows and whys aren't important now All that matters is they came around And brightened up our lives She was twenty one with her life ahead You don't need to know her name She breathed her last on the cold stone floor of a Hollywood arcade But fate's right hand isn't always just Puts a lot of pressure on your faith and trust She was just a little girl ain't that enough To rage against the day [chorus:] And how did we get so lucky? Targets on the rifle range Who makes the call and who gets to choose? Who gets to win and who gets to lose? It's like a rolling dice in the belly of the blues And blues never fade away Hey hey the colors run when the rain falls But blues never fade away He shone so bright with a lust for life Like the Sun King that he was His passions hung upon his walls and were printed onto cloth And for reasons I never understood About the choices made between the bad and good I've tried to figure out but The pain never goes away [repeat chorus] And there's marble markers and little white crosses Along the beaten path And I've spread their ashes on the wind And I miss John Lennon's laugh [repeat chorus]
7. The Bridge3:38
8. I Must Have Lost It On The Wind3:53

   Letra

   I'm no longer counting I'm not keeping score I could say my list of lovers doesn't matter anymore But some are always in my heart And some I'm not so sure Either way they all left their mark And for some I found a cure [chorus:] From one you learn something Another you learn, nothing And there's one who might teach you everything But before I learned to listen And if indeed someone said it Then I guess I must have lost it on the wind Back when I was younger each one was a prize Love just came along and hit you right between the eyes And one was just a trophy catch And one was like a curse Some would want to bleed you dry Some might quench your thirst [repeat chorus] In cold water I went fishing in warm seas I cast a line And swore the heart I was reeling in was perfect at the time You couldn't tell me I was wrong, you couldn't tell me anything And if you did then I guess I must have lost it on the wind
