Crashed the car on a Saturday afternoon
Got a hunger for control but it's never ever absolute
I'm counting down the days our time is running out
I want you by my side even though you're not mine
Hold onto the sky we'll stretch it out for miles and miles
I'll hold the other end and I promise I'll try not to cry
We gotta slow it down, slow it down, my heels are sinking into the asphalt
You've been clutching the Sun since before the day we met
But the burns on your hands say you're trying to forget
The stars in the sky we thought were living had been dead for so long
for too long, we thought wrong
Hold onto the sky we'll stretch it out for miles and miles
I'll hold the other end and I promise I'll try not to cry
We gotta slow it down, slow it down, my heels are sinking into the asphalt
Oh my lord, where are you now?

Washing your soul to make you content, make you feel
asking dirty, dirty makings ask me all of it
Do you want me for me? What do you really want?
Are you telling me to seek inside or seek deprive?
Am I letting go?
I'm probably seeing things
Please don't tell me go
Am I worthy yet? Am I holy yet?
Wake me up, tear me out
Tell me now, keep me at bay

Would you like the company or are you sick of me
When your love lets you go you only want love more
Even when love wasn't what you were looking for
Speak slow, tell me love where do we go... ah ah
Where do we go...ah ah, where do we go
Break down plead your case I don't know what to say
I leave my heart all this pain and now I'm at it all again
On these streets that I leave for weeks on end who's to blame
When you want love doesn't matter what you're looking for
Speak slow, tell me love where do we go... ah ah
Where do we go... ah ah, where do we go
So far away and I just can't see you I'm
So far along and I just don't need you
I am so ah-alone, so ah-alone
When your love lets you go you only want love more
Even when love wasn't what you were looking for

These days they come and go like open doors and open windows
I can't find my way back to those days, those cursed days
when neither knew how far to go
we stayed in and refrained to hello
and no one makes me feel
so - look at you
I know it's time to go
Driving past old crowded dorms
with filling people good loud sounds
you're finding me
I'm here
Defiantly you're cleaning me by filling me with your words
I know it's bad but sounds so good
If I had seen me in my past and know for sure the scars would last
I'd do it again hand in hand

Macho Macho - Central

I want to know how it feels to be alone
To hold a house - a name of my own
I want to know how it feels to be free
To cast away everything
Bright lights come down on my eyes
Standing upright in touch with the sky
Try hard now to erase my doubt
Try hard now do I break the most
I know - is it worth it?
Layering all of my art
Keeping it clean
Don't long for the dark
She lives away in Michigan state
She lives away waits all day
I'm longing for a solid home
Uncertainty is quite my own
Offering myself on the table
Awaiting moments is my mistake
I know - is it worth it?

Macho Macho - Kingsley

Your voice was shaky
I thought the little one had left
Raining, standing under my roof
I thought the little one had left
I'm feeling issues crawl up
and down my legs so newly brought up
Now I'm feeling all these emotions
that come alive, alive and well
You won't see me again
It was Monday morning
All my eyes were closed
It was Monday morning
You were leaving silently and we
never bothered to step in and say
Oh my god! where did the days go?
Oh my god? where did your color go?
You won't see me again
It was Monday morning
All my eyes were closed
It was Monday morning

Six little legs come in my room
Stand, silent, we wait
keep your trunk and bank hold still
I don't wanna kill anything
Friend you walk right out that door
Sign your life away
Walk right back in demand your rights
Looks straight into his face
I won't say
Don't make me wait
Get a cold, dark cell
I've just killed a friend
I'm in love and in more too
Sun shines brighter these days
your lips are warm and inviting
now they give off me
my name has gone from pure to evil
I'm not sure right now
who I am or what I teach
I've found my wishing well
I won't say
Don't make me wait
Get a cold, dark cell
I've just killed a friend
|

How long has it been since the last?
Have we grown apart? The twine
that closes our hearts here leaves us broken
Do you think we should stay or leave it like this?
Standing wishing knees are breaking we go
Hope to find the part where we both know
searching for something deeper it'll never come
until the day

Macho Macho - Emily

Forever you will be my sister
Born of the same blue/two eyes
we love the world at most
Forever you will be my sister
Born of the same blue/two eyes
Keep hope in the holy ghost
My gift to you is standing upright now
Now, I am fine, new chains drip right off my neck
Big cloth around me stay still I love
Same, I should stay
if I fall away
Correct me if I'm wrong
stand me on the holy ground of home
Were we forever little girls playing in plain white sands?
If I was the tree, you'd be the Indian

Macho Macho - Blind Duet
03:18

I would fall in love with you in 1922
We'll tell the new Nosfurato to turn off the lights
in global cities all run-down
to see it now the windows are drawn
to watch us as we all bend over
we'll buy a house next to the shore
where F. Fitzgerald won his war
and bring up three pure lovely kids
a beautiful girl, a timely salesman
and lastly, James became a priest
he knew his calling long before
we did and we didn't see it coming
oh - what a beautiful time
to bring a child into this life
oh - how beautiful you are
you'll never know how much I love you
standing almost eye to eye
special failure under the sky
I'll trim the lawn and cut the hedges
wave goodbye to our next door neighbors
watch the children having fun
I'll kiss your beautiful tattooed heart
and you'll pull the tobacco out of my lungs
yes they are an abundant blessing
the must have come down straight down from heaven
work ran late I'm rushing home
now we'll know how much we've grown
the baby jesus is on his way
all to see the Christmas play
we need to watch what we do and what we say

Macho Macho - Hark

Come home, come tell me about your day
I want to see the world in your way
I've been writing city songs lately
To see magic in my city
You've been telling me it's no fun
Without the people who you love
My eyes are blinded that is clear
It's you and your smile I want to be near
It's a month since we last prayed
There's not been too much divine my way
Let me tell you now - it's getting harder to be loud
We're not prudes, we're laughing at you
|

When you go and you don't know how to
come back, back to where you came from
I know that you will always find a way home
When you broke my heart and left for him
I know that it would never be so hard
dI saw you you showed me I couldn't love you now
Is it bad that I don't want to see you here in my town please stay where you are
and keep yourself away from my life and heart
I won't be made to look like a man who backs away and makes you hurt
I tried to heal things but you turned away
I never wanted to cause you harm
I know that you put so much into it
and gave it so much confidence
I hope you know
that soon we will both be conscious of the the things
we do we know we could never be so close for much longer
city life is better off alone

Macho Macho - Hysteric
03:27

I would carry the strength of 400 horses and their manes
Control all of take before and give in now
Give up me hands
Keep up and guard my eyes
my heart is to you
and protect your own
Shelter from the cold
the wicked winter
it's better here
to know
Keep me up inside the purest of pure
and wash out my eyes
Keep me focused to you
And layer me your most clean shadow
to know
I will tell again my heart it belongs to only you
every single bead and fiber of my blood
will bring you peace

Hey, little girl, is your daddy home?
Did he go and leave you all alone?
I got a bad desire
Oh-oh-oh, I'm on fire
Tell me now, baby, is he good to you?
And can he do to you the things that I do? Oh, no
I can take you higher
Oh-oh-oh, I'm on fire
Sometimes it's like someone took a knife, baby, edgy and dull
And cut a six-inch valley through the middle of my skull
At night I wake up with the sheets soaking wet
And a freight train running through the middle of my head
Only you can cool my desire
Oh-oh-oh, I'm on fire
Oh-oh-oh, I'm on fire
Oh-oh-oh, I'm on fire

Macho Macho - Veteran
01:52

I was a veteran in the army but no one ever knew my name
we woke up very early to prepare for battles none the same
and of course I was quite tired and of course I was quite scared
I was a veteran in the army but no one ever knew my name
And in soon time I realized that I cannot handle pain
After break up, after heart break I knew I'd never be the same
and of course it might sound cliche, and of course it might sound strained
And in soon time I realized that I cannot handle pain
And now that you've found a companion to take my place
I hope that life it treats you with good and abundant grace
and of course I'll still be tired, and of course I'll still be scared
I hope life it treats you well and love it works for me again

My mother of so beauty
keep her strong ever-changing
grace lies down, it is, her love is ever present
her eyes are damaged and hurt
keep her new, show me how
keep her in my wildest dreams
father oh father you live
absent forever hidden
spirit tell reconnect, relight the ancient fire
spirit say open up and undue super secret
braid us together now
braid our hearts together for me
stay strong, my life, don't look back
I fly like the eagles look into sunsets
I know some wisdom to pass on
courage I know not
every changing present beauty
my word to keep unstained
to know you strength to pass on
I call on empty space
Father, oh father you live - come hear my childish pleas
stay strong, my life, don't look back
I fly like the eagles look into sunsets

Come, Thou Fount of every blessing
Tune my heart to sing Thy grace
Streams of mercy, never ceasing
Call for songs of loudest praise
Teach me some melodious sonnet
Sung by flaming tongues above
Praise the mount, I'm fixed upon it
Mount of Thy redeeming love
Here I raise my Ebenezer
Here there by Thy great help I've come
And I hope, by Thy good pleasure
Safely to arrive at home
Jesus sought me when a stranger
Wandering from the fold of God
He, to rescue me from danger
Interposed His precious blood

Macho Macho - Wind Song
04:14

Lady girl don't you ever tell me go away
I've put so much into you I cannot stray
I don't wanna see ya in the dark with him
I just can't take knowing that your heart is his
I remember when we walked and we did not speak
was it then you saw how perfect love could be
I hope respects and puts up with your mind
for pain is the last thing I want for the love of mine
Do you remember the innocent love we had
I still do and I'll forget to let me last
god I hope that he treats you well
you are out of my control, you're out of control
I know that when we stopped a promise was kept
to still hold tight the bond that we had
I don't feel like that meant anything
I still hurt and miss you terribly
When you sense that you are about to get hurt
you pull away and stray you make it worse
but I'm not gonna try anything
to rid you out and heal my heartstrings
Lastly when my mind cleared I found a letter
I opened it and read everything
Even though I said I won't
I think it was deserved for the heart and my songs

Macho Macho - Jack
02:53
|

I've never had a brother
until I had a lover
it was some time before we became friends
Friends we keep in common
out minds connect grow stronger
ever though we're done
come on keep this on
and low, low you sing
and love, love you bring
you will praise our god
you won't bring us down
we will praise our god
we won't bring you down
When we get our houses
and when we earn our spouses
never forget the honesty
of when we walked together
remember our bad weather
and stay safe - I got your bank

Little boxes on the hillside,
Little boxes made of ticky tacky
Little boxes on the hillside,
Little boxes all the same,
There's a pink one and a green one
And a blue one and a yellow one
And they're all made out of ticky tacky
And they all look just the same.
And the people in the houses
All went to the university
Where they were put in boxes
And they came out all the same
And there's doctors and lawyers
And business executives
And they're all made out of ticky tacky
And they all look just the same.
And they all play on the golf course
And drink their martinis dry
And they all have pretty children
And the children go to school,
And the children go to summer camp
And then to the university
Where they are put in boxes
And they come out all the same.
And the boys go into business
And marry and raise a family
In boxes made of ticky tacky
And they all look just the same,
There's a pink one and a green one
And a blue one and a yellow one
And they're all made out of ticky tacky
And they all look just the same.

Macho Macho - Heal Heal
02:16

Did I make it best for me? I will know
How can I call out myself if I don't show?
Turn water into wine
make everybody disappear
Come on show
If I can't afford to be, could I heal?
Say it like you mean it, I said start it!

Act like he is around
Speak like you are to be found
Speak like a saint
Keep hold of past sins you know
Should we shod the feet of ourselves?
Speak like a saint
He calls us sons
We're called for more

Come as you are
to Bethlehem, he is coming
Our new child king
He's ransomed hearts, broken chains
Christmas - the greatest gift of all, to us a king
Christmas - come sing his peoples, come around and sing
Open your doors to greet the family, greet the heaven-sent
open your arms embrace those found and those you have missed
He will be the new born king
