ALPHA & ORANGE'S LYRIC SHEET
"Is there life
before death?"- Anonymous
When I'm riding on a carousel
And I feel like a painted man
With a smile you can wash away
When I spin around The music plays ...
When I'm walking in the grand parade
and I feel like the only one
With a pride that is dangerous
And the rain starts falling down ...
There's something haunting about a clown
With a smile that is painted on
And my mask is an empty stare
And the rain is falling everywhere ...
When the laughter gets the best of me
And I feel like a violent fool
In my dream where it all came true
Where my heart has broken every rule ...
Time goes on and days pass by and All my memory fades ...
In the rain parade

"He always wanted to explain exactly the way he felt about things ... But, no one cared ... At first he drew pictures of mutilated squirrels, but eventually he just had violent mood swings."- The Blood Of Henry
Here's the love that
closed my
Eyes
No more belief in nursery
Rhymes
You were the one that gave me life
Left me alone, left me to die
Everywhere I Turn
Everywhere
Left my mother for the call
Under the veil of love and death
Caring for the weary traveler
And laying them down to rest
Sick minds have heavy hearts ...
(When the magic is in the air
You can run, but it's everywhere
For Madmen Only)

"I once woke up in a hazy twilight between Nyquil and the A/C going out in August. Pain can remind us that we are still alive, and it can also remind us that we are not complete."- Bad Beanie Buddha Baby
It's so hot
I just woke from this dream ...
It's so hardTo remember anything ...
I can't tell the shadows from myself
It's so far from me to where you are
Take these things from me
I need to feel you
Take this pain from me
Take all these things from me
I don't pretend to know
I don't know where I'm going
I just depend on you to
Be there for me

"Rush Limbaugh told me that Ted Dansen said that the world only has about ten years left and I don't believe either one of them."- Mayor Quimby
Looks like a fever
to me
Makes people do crazy things
It's got to be a fever
Yeah, makes people have crazy dreams
The flowers in the greenhouse Have all withered
The tear that's in my eye
Has turned to sand
The traps we set for mice
Have overcome us
It doesn't feel like a World without end
The arbitrary laws are all broken
Reason in a crack inside the bell
Responsibility is not among us
The age of blame has died And gone to hell

"The mirror betrays me and reflects a hollow shadow instead of myself. I have looked deep within my soul, and all I found was a feedback loop."
I'm looking at that
time of year when footballs fly, the season that passed me by. Looking
at another year, I feel the strain of all the things I've tried.Life is
a dream that we forget the moment that we fall asleep, it passes by. The
secret things that we regret, the moment that we are alone we don't have
to hide.They say we can all fly in our dreams, the only time we are honest
with ourselves. I wish I could find me a place to be something lighter
than the shadow of myself.I can't be what they want me to be 'cause there's
not much left of who I think I am. If I fall, I will fall on my face again.
There's not much left of who I thought that I should be.If I could I would
build me a magic castle where there would never be any change. If I could
I would live in my magic castle where there would never be any shame.I
lay my life down ... It's all I can do.

"Hey, look ... They made me Theologian of the Year!"- Woody Allen
Through days of Love
In Grey
I face myself
I wonder if I have ever been so alone
I never meant to hurt you
We were young when we fell into Love
Now we've said what we've said
And, we've done what we've done
Our friends have all taken sides.
Who's right and who's wrong?
I don't think we can say.
When it's over those things fade away.
I can remember the day When everything changed ...
I'm looking at you ...
You're looking at me ...
We are changing and we
Don't know what we seeI'm staring at you ...
Your staring at me ...
We are changing and
We don't like it.

"It didn't have to be ... obscene."- Rosencrantz
She's a dancer
She knows how to turn it on
She's a lady
She knows how to move me with passion
She's a danger when she Only wants to make it
She is a stranger when she
Only wants to take it all.
Love is the meaningless word
If you've never seen it
What is the meaning of love
If you don't believe it?
Love is the meaningless word
If you don't believe.
She's the answer
To questions I should not ask
She's a romancer
She will not take off her mask
She's a liar when she
Only wants to fake it
She is desire when she
Only wants to take it all
She's looking for a place where her Heart will not be torn apart.
The place that she is looking for is not called Heaven,
No one gets in there without a broken heart.

"Never trust someone who doesn't trust you."- Franklore Hartism
In the dark I see
my life in you
In my mind the fountain of my youth
I'm standing in between
What I think and what I feel.
All my change is in the wishing well.
I'm afraid of trusting you
I'm afraid of love
I have touched the butterfly of love.
I have seen the magic that comes from her.
I'm looking for a lover
And a friend that I can trust.
I know trust is a paper tiger that I fear.
In the shadows I see my life go by.
In my heart the fountain is running dry.
The change that's in my hand
Feels like the last I'll ever make.
I need to trust you ...You smile ...You show your fangs.

there. You've given me my life, and I take More day by day.Now I can see
what was not there before ...I am spinning I think I see the way homeThe
world is spinningI think I see the way home.

"I've seen Heaven, but I choose what I understand."- C. S. Greyton
I'm surrounded by
the beauty
I feel surrounded by the things I see and hear
But I just can't lay it down.
I feel the windI feel the prison wall within ...
Why can't I let go?
I am haunted by the things I say
I'm haunted by them.
I say it all ...
I don't say anything at all.
I feel the river flow
I feel the desert taking hold
Why can't I let go?
Why do I try to find myself Where I should never be?
Why can't I let go?
Why do I try to hide myself where I should never be?
Why can't I let go?
I feel the poetry and the madness.
