Said I buried my soul in a mulberry bush didn't put it too deep just gave a little push singin bout summer while I'm shoveling the snow I gotta shove a little bullshit just to get a little dough Its the fiery and the fire dancing up the pretty liar with her heart made of diamonds and her fingers made of coal Said I'll make a fence of words hide the fact that I don't know Under that bush I'm gonna bury my soul Under that bush I'm gonna bury my soul Under that bush I'm gonna bury my soulx3 Said one day I'm gonna beat the rain two eyes on my birth one foot in the grave got a letter from the city askin "give me some change" but my pockets on fire feelin good today one thing baby that you should know I'm gonna swallow my pride and bury my soulx3 Eatin outta kitchens where the soup is for free simmer to a boil gotta give it to me gonna take the elevator to the office of the mayor gonna make him sign my papers and bury my soul make him sign my papers and bury my soul make him sign my papers and bury my soulx3 Now I gotta dire situation at hand they givin me the jelly and I just wanna jam Give me some strings and the drums for my hands and we can make this noise all over the land kitchen gets too hot you got somewhere to go baby will you come and help me bury my soul baby will you come and help me bury my soul baby will you come and help me bury my soulx3 save yourself a minute for the rest of your life by stompin out the ashes at the end of the night and you could be the fireman if that's what you like but you gotta hang your clothes up after fighting for the dawning of the light! When you wake up singin in the day Im bringin A song called reality its turning out too much for me I gotta step back because you know I never want to be known for my thoughts I'll try and collect them all but your closets too small to try and hold all them skeletons theres too many bones! Take them all to me and we can bury our souls Take them all to me and we can bury our souls Take them all to me and we can bury our soulsx3

Ways we handle just what we can do our lives are the same as the sun on the sea don't you burn out all the light from your candle you are the sun and I am the sea you got the rhythm and I've got the beat can't say now where the moon lays down because you are the sun and I am the sea You can't listen but you can hear your eyes can't see whats blocking your ears senses are worthless when you're numb to the pain but your heart gets lonely when you're using your brain all of our thoughts are caught up in the clouds sometimes they explode thats why the thunders so loud sometimes our words get taken by the wind they're blown out of proportion and they seem to condescend takin a walk to the edge of your lips what you're going to say is hanging from a cliff the right ones in your left hand the wrong ones in you're right both of them are hanging on to you for dear life your body is a catalyst for all the things you do try running with your mind and you'll be trying something new now you know when the rain is making music in the drains it can jam to the beat of the blood in your veins Ways we handle just what we can do our lives are the same as the sun on the sea don't you burn out all the light from your candle you are the sun and I am the sea you got the rhythm and I've got the beat can't say now where the moon lays down because you are the sun and I am the sea Sneakin out the back way it's taking too long now you can come in because you know thats you belong bring it down slow because we're coming on strong singing to a different tune but it's the same song chip in your shoulder and a dip in your moves smile when sad just to lighten up the mood how come everybody doesn't do it like you startin out the day with a fresh attitude packin up my suitcase and I'm headed on a quest to look for signs of life around the valley of the dead I reach into my pocket and I'm pullin out some bait you know a dollar in your pocket keeps the bullshit away Ways we handle just what we can do our lives are the same as the sun on the sea don't you burn out all the light from your candle you are the sun and I am the sea you got the rhythm and I've got the beat can't say now where the moon lays down because you are the sun and I am the sea The king abandoned his throne he's headed to the coast he's wrappin up his bones in dirty turniquets of ghosts he waves goodbye to some but he says I'll be back to most he jumped into the ocean but he never lost control the water was his spirit when he never had a soul and his mind was an island where the wind blew cold his body was rift where the water filled the hole but he died the day he realized he could never go home Ways we handle just what we can do our lives are the same as the sun on the sea don't you burn out all the light from your candle you are the sun and I am the sea you got the rhythm and I've got the beat can't say now where the moon lays down because Ways we handle just what we can do our lives are the same as the sun on the sea don't you burn out all the light from your candle you are the sun and I am the sea you got the rhythm and I've got the beat can't say now where the moon lays down because you are the sun and I am the sea

We'd kiss the planets if they were ten feet tall put the calendar back up on the wall never mind the fact, a fleeting chance, or your drop-top ten toes helping you dance I made a promise to a little girl that now I'd only stick to naturals but I've got fifteen dollars and the clothes on my back now tell me what to do with that Its just your imagination thats making it seem like you're in a dream and if you stop to wonder than you might as well start all over again Horseshoes, hand grenades, and common sense if you cross the king you've got to deal with the prince Do I Apologize to you? No said I'll be right back, I'm going away I've got a lot of shit I've got to deal with today and I can't wait for the wind to blow Then I told her to wait for me I'm stuck on this empty string but I'm at the top of everything And if you stop to wonder than you might as well start all over again

You said you would hit the road wit me just if you could get the means to leave we hit the 95 straight up to the north country we split our own divide between the concrete and the trees don't ever look behind till' you reach the county line and finish what you start I was so absent minded the road is where I left my heart now I can't see my town through the rear view mirror drivin into a cloud seen bad days where its been much clearer sleep in the corner of my eyes virgin mary on his dashboard if he thinks that it keeps him alive,well thats one belief that I just can't afford when you forget the first lesson you taught you might have to buy something you've already bought, but.. what if you steal everything? the road is where I left my heart Find a place to sleep in a wheat field off the west banks pitch a home made out of a sheet that you got in the trash from a U-save We've got our plan devised another small town conquered we've got mud on our shoes but a fire in our eyes and our hearts always tell us to press onward I try to look ahead as I think about what you said when I was in the dark I lifet my mind somewhere, but the road is where I left my heart Put my shoes by the door this tattered pair of rags... can I stay for a couple days or more? I've only got my shoes and a bag. I can tell you about the trip we can catch up on old times when it was okay to not care about a thing when the grass wold never grow but the sun would always shine Don't ever take life for granted find your roots where they were planted I've given it all I've got So take another breath the road is where I left my heart x2
