Hello there, did you miss me? Well,
I surely missed you, you've been silent,
Silent as the lambs once
the wolves have had their way with them

But you know that feeling,
you know it all too well, because that feeling
and a certain attitude
have put you in your own private hell

Now I wish I could help, but just like you told me,
there's a thing called distance
When I offered my hand to do anything I could
You just dismissed it

But this doesn't change the way I feel at all
not one little bit
Cuz I've made up my mind to continue loving you
Even when you don't give a shit, now

I know you know deep in your heart
I'm the best thing that you'll ever/never have
So if I'm the king of self-destruction
be my queen, it's destiny!

So just picture yerself a little house
in the trees or in the rocks
And you and me out front sitting on a swing
watching a child learn to walk!

But you disowned that dream so easily
And turned off pleasant thought
And put on a kettle of seperation
Now it's steaming and boiling hot!

So just let it all rain down on me
Until I'm covered in mud
But when push comes to shove, I'm telling you girl,
Before this is over, there's gonna be blood!

Blood in the desert, blood in the streets
Blood in your heart and blood in your veins
Blood that stings with the bitter thought
Of all the things that you never could change

Cuz you can't change, No you can't,
Unless you want to, but you won't comprimise
But that's why I feel the way I do
When I see that fire burning when I look into your eyes

Well I would if I could but I can't so I don't
want to pain my heart anymore with dreams
But you're all that I want and all that I see
When I look outside at that crazy beautiful world of ours

With the leaves on the trees turning colors
Another warm sunny day
And the birds scream at me to go to Arizona
so I can finally be with you!



So when the war is finally over and the day is done
I want you there standing at my side as one
And as we stand together on the rubble you look up at my face
And you smile. And that one little smile makes the whole world a better place
Because your radiance shines with a brilliant glow
even in these darkest of hours
As mankind stands on the verge of extinction
thanks to bitterness and hatred amongst the world's powers
But with you there, I know I can face the apacolypse
your spunky attitude slices through the pestillence & greed
Like a hot knife through bread, scorching a trail towards
a brighter tomorrow for all the children of the world
But that's just wishful thinking, I'm just a foolish dreamer
I'm foolish to feel the way that I do and it's foolish to think this could ever work out
And it's foolish to think we could ever be together
and it's foolish to think we could ever meet eachother
and it's foolish to feel so much for someone so far away
and it's foolish to like someone that's so out of my range
And it's foolish to love and it's foolish to care
and it's foolish to want and it's foolish to need
and it's foolish to think that I'll ever fuck you on all fours
in our own shitty bed in our own shitty apartment
But I'm a foolish sort of guy! And I still believe
that all of these dreams will someday come true!
And until that day comes I'll just sit here alone
and hold you in my heart while I wait like a stone!
A stones throw away from a rock fight, but not tonight!
No, not ever! Things are gonna change! But I
can dream, can't I? Mr. King, I too have a
dream! Mr. Gorbachev, tear down this wall!
Mr. Bungle, get off that carosel! get down from
your high horse! You guys played your last when the
peppers kicked your ass! Tell My Love Now, what class!
Tell Me Baby, you're growin' up fast!
But this constant frustration alienation californication
spaceman station across the nation has killed us all
at last! Broken down at the dead disco now
that Florida's sunk and all has come to pass!
But although all the great ships have sunk and the
fires of the ocean burn high into the sky,
through the fire and the flames and the smoke on the water,
one sound rings true! That sound is the beating of the
DRUMS!!! Always pounding, always sounding, never ceasing
to beat! The drums of war! Dr. Pepper, could you make
them stop?!?! As we march to the beat of a different
drum, march to drums of the damned
as we come! We come marching through the
bombed-out ruins of the village square!
The smell of ash, the sound of music, the feeling of change
is in the air! Because the future is soon and the future is
now! And we'll march this black parade and
follow old glory into a new day! And as I
smile and stare up at that red, white, & blue,
I close my eyes, and all I can think of...

...is you. It's true... you're all I can think of...
