Thirty days lord and thirty nights
I’m coming home on an airplane flight
Mama waiting at the ticket line
Tell me son why do you stand there crying
It was the needle and the spoon
And a trip to the moon
Took me away, took me away
I’ve been feeling so sick inside
Got to get better lord before I die
Seven doctors couldn’t help my head, they said
You’d better quit son, before you’re dead
Quit the needle, quit the spoon
Quit the trip to the moon
We’re going to take you away, lord we’re gonna take you away
It was the needle and the spoon
I’ve seen a lot of people who thought they were cool
But then again, lord I’ve seen a lot of fools
Well I hope you people lord can hear what I say
You’ll have your chance to hit it some day
Don’t mess with the needle or a spoon
Or any trip to the moon
It’ll take you away
Lord, they’re going to bury you boy
Don’t mess with the needle
Now I know, I know
I know, I know, I know…

Dust
I can lie a hundred ways, speak in riddles until I’m out of breath Holding out for a better day, still thinking I got something left Then the world does what it …
Forever In The Light
Spending your days still walking in the shadows Looking for a hand, not a hit and run Building those walls up higher and higher as you go Climbing your way straight up to …
