Felonies (Buddha)

This statement it is my last
I fell shivering from my own past
I´ve got huge troubles in mid june
I´ve got three soldiers´ girlfriends hunting me down
This statement it is my last
I got caught in a corner with my pockets full of grass
and now they say that I
made their kids smoke weed on the mountain side
Please please please don´t treat me
like I´m the kind of guy who commits felonies
I´ve been out of my mind I´ve been out of luck
so please
this statement well I must say
made my feelings run wild in a strange kind of way
I got into a bar fight with my old landlord
I cut him down in self-defense and I got blamed
but my statements don´t mean a thing
I´m writing them on prison walls so what will they bring
night reading for the next prisoner
who´s taking my cell when they send me away
please please please don´t treat me
like I´m the kind of guy who commits felonies
I´ve been out of my mind I´ve been out of luck
so please set me free

Let go

I´m river rafting all alone
I jump from buildings just for fun
and I hope they see
that I´m only trying to be free
and I travel without a goal
I emphasize the peace in my soul
so I hope they see
that I´m a modern man and I am free
you can´t cage me in I do what i want
I have immunity from everything boring
and all I care for is me
aint that how to be free
Never calm, just on and on
a constantly slithering tone,
a subtle way of perpetrating
give me a sign give me a hope
I´ll never let go, I´ll never let go
I paint on public walls just to express
my every waking thought and I do confess
that my manners are at stake
i´m only human for god´s sake
and I´ll dance on your broken dreams
I´ll get a groove on like a dancing machine
there aint no pleasure I wont take
i´m only human for god´s sake
I take this mask on when the day does dawn
I do the same routines every morning
so what difference does it make
if I would act all human for my own sake
I travel without a goal
I emphasize the peace in my soul
so I hope they see
I´m a modern man and I am
Never calm, just on and on
a constantly slithering tone,
a subtle way of perpetrating
give me a sign give me a hope
I´ll never let go, I´ll never let go

This time I´ll do it right
I´m taking up this fight
I will not be swallowed again
I used to run away
This time I´ll have to stay
I have nowhere else to escape to
All I really wanted was to pass it to another
No matter what I tried to do it came back from the gutters
so please believe me when I say
that all I really wanted was to pass it to another
Payback from another life well maybe I deserve it
I tried to understand these whys but I can not be certain
all I know is that it´s worse
that all I really wanted was to pass it to another
This time I´ll do it right
I´m taking up this fight
I will not be swallowed again
I used to run away
This time I´ll have to stay
I have nowhere else to escape to

My safe home

It´s almost dawn and I can´t find rest
I´m leaving town for a new found nest
and I´m just waiting to hear my cuckoo
this bird has flown well I´m on my way
I´m looking forward to better days
and I´m sending postcards from wherever I stop
I got her off my chest, she wont find my nest
my safe home, my safe home
I tried with reason but she turned around
I tried with gifts but she turned them down
I even tried with snoozing my cuckoo
if I could have seen what I see now
I´d tell myself that she turned me down
just to feel new love one more time
I got her off my chest, she won´t find my nest
my safe home, my safe home
she wont find my nest, she got lost in this
my safe home, my safe home
