What will it take till you believe in me The way that I believe in you.
I don't think what has happened to me is that different from what happens to most people. The only difference is the scale. People seem to think my problems are larger than life, but they're not larger than my life.
I don't want clever conversationI never want to work that hard.
I don't think of myself as a singer. The only reason I ever got onstage was to meet girls.
I don't know why I even care, we get so high and get nowhere.
I don't care what you say anymore, this is my life Go ahead with your own life and leave me alone.
If we're going to keep ourselves interested, we can't play for the reviewer and we can't just play for the audience. In the end, you have to just play for yourself.
No end to sorrow, caused by the same endless fears.
People who are looking for art in rock 'n' roll or pop are looking for something that either doesn't or shouldn't exist.
She will promise you moreThan the Garden of EdenThen she'll carelessly cut youAnd laugh while you're bleeding.
She will promise you more Than the Garden of Eden Then she'll carelessly cut you And laugh while you're bleeding.
She's got a way about her...I don't know what it is... but I know that I can't live without her...
She's got a smile that heals me I don't know why it is But I have to laugh when she reveals me.
Shades of grey wherever I goThe more I find out the less that I knowBlack and white is how it should beBut shades of grey are the colors I see.
