Anywhere With You

Belief is just a resident of things you heard when the pain was clear
You've been traveling in so far only to find out your still nowhere near

You're the creator of the gods and the whores of the Babylon
Most just want your money but one or two will kill you for a song

Singing to the drifter
Singing to the banker and the maid
Singing to the sling shots
Singing to the diamond

And the thieves are gone
And the thieves are gone
And the thieves are gone

I'm ready to go anywhere
Anywhere with you
And we sing this song over
Over with you my love

Shouting at the fire engines rolling down Jefferson at dawn
Everyone's corrupted and looking like there's nowhere to belong

I see your eye's are spinning
Swallowing the world
The way it blooms
The walls began to dance
And your thoughts began appearing in balloons

So when the strangers sugar coat servants at the seam
As the beggars bleeding
Butchers betting back the bread
The bank round you to bring
And trucks with number flames roll undisturbed through greenhill
So will I
You're trying to nurse the sprit but it's enough for most just to survive
And their eyes are gone

I'm ready to go anywhere
Anywhere with you
And we sing this song over
Over with you my love

Someone needs an operator
Someone else is broken on the road
The one by loves it's self too much
That never got around to explode
Games and animators say we'll be forgiven and do time
But there has always been an alligator
Biting off the heads of those who shine
Nothing here is real and nothing here holds any true weight
Heading out of Troutville
Bleeding hands reaching for the bank
Pull me from the stream and I will fight like danger in the air
And as you are driving by the accident each review will start to stare
I'm sending you a postcard

I'm ready to go anywhere
Anywhere with you
As we sing this song over
Over with you my love

I'm sending you a post card
But I am nowhere and you are nowhere too
Well I don't have a stamp so I'll just burn it if it's all the same to you

It held no information 'cause every word that's spoken is a lie
For you were never born so there is no way you will ever die
What's the use of feeling for someone that you made up in your mind
You dream that you are lost and you imagine that there is a you to find
But there just aint nobody
No savior
No heaven and no hell
Just a load of broken junk
You're looking for an idiot to sell
Your life it doesn't work but you've resigned yourself to live it 'til the end
The way you look so kind but no one seems to notice so you just pretend
Then you get depressed

I'm ready to go anywhere
Any where with you
As we sing this song over
Over with you my love

Then you get depressed
So you find yourself a doctor and a pill to make the line more comfortable
And make believe you're following your will
