Darling 01:57
use my friends and put us down I don't need to bicker with you go burn the Capitol right to the ground if your precious ideals are so true second-hand activist why do you preach you act like you're some kind of master or priest you're hung up on garments and haircuts and flesh your experiments are just like all the rest how do you feel when you're out in the street or when you're alone in a bed I wrote and recorded hundreds of songs and they will live on when I'm dead so go right ahead and talk and talk 'cause you're too afraid to sing another white man on stolen land we'd kill you if you were a king if you're such an intellectual man then go teach politics don't be in a band you're hung up on garments and haircuts and flesh your experiments are just like all the rest

when all the faces have disappeared the thoughts you used to have they don't come true you're needing a friend and once again she is by herself you realize that you are alone as well you're needing a friend sometimes I need her sometimes I'm singing does anybody need the things that I am bringing
3.
you have a different view from your eyes I think it's good and what you play is such a surprise I think it's good blessed blackness I love you blessed blackness I worship you blessed blackness I love you blessed blackness I worship you I'm tuned in to just what you feel it's all the same we need some music we need love it's all the same looking at your hands you are the ancient man I know you will do better than I can blessed blackness I love you blessed blackness I worship you blessed blackness I love you blessed blackness I worship you

you lost a million dollars and your stock is falling fast you're walking in a puddle and your car won't run on gas you gave your love a diamond and she won't wash your clothes your hands are tied behind your back and you can't wipe your nose I didn't scuff your shoes when you passed me on the street you were talking on some telephone you were holding with your feet you hide your love away and you guard it with your life you never thought another man would take you for a wife

Tough Face 01:46
you say the city would do me good you're wrong you think I haven't been experienced you're wrong don't you think it's time for living your life are you happy with what's going on your life all I really want to do is be your friend what about people makes them not be your friend I do me you do you your thing you are you I am I your thing
6.
bright lights big city went to your head you think something's happening, it's already dead remember this song you took what you wanted, then you went away you latched onto someone new and you repeat what they say all you want is new people to see your new clothes you say you're so open, how many times have you turned up your nose remember this song
7.
you run your mouth all day long I can't get you to say a word seems like the truth is somethin' you don't think I deserve you better tell me everything about your other guy or little girl you know that one of us is gonna die you tried to hurt my pride you tried to hurt my pride yeah but you don't know you say that you don't know now girl you say that you don't know just what's goin' on I know that you just can't admit how you done me wrong you're doin' evil 'cause you can't understand my happiness girl yeah you don't know tried to hurt my pride you tried to hurt my pride
8.
Strangers 02:23
strangers - that's what you need tell them who you are and they believe strangers - don't have a past trick your mind into thinking that it's gonna last strangers - come from the dark they think that it's real when you pretend that you've got a heart strangers - hear what they say put on your mask when you see that they are comin' your way
