Songs About / On: ANGER

I've an image in my pocket
Of some dark demon
That temptation brought to life
And it chokes all of my breath out
I'm scratching and screaming'
'Til morning comes to night

Place your hand
My body will decide
Place your hand
My anger will subside

There are fragments of possessions
Shards of past relations
Splintering my skin
A fear so black and hollow
It can suffocate creation
And refuse to let you in

Place your hand
My body will decide
Place your hand
My anger will subside

And they speak to me like prophets in my dreams
Speak to me like prophets in my dreams
Shouting like prophets in my dreams

Sometimes I think it's easy
Too easy for the living
To receive the promised land
Can flesh provide the answer
The reaction for sensation
Justify your hand

Place your hand
My body will decide
Place your hand
My anger will subside read more »

What causes you to act the way you do?
What draws this anger up from the very soul?
Are you as insane as the things that you do?
This isn't the way it was meant to go read more »

Denim, studs an leather all the way
They call him a willful grumbler, who's going astray
Looking for a grain of fortune for feeling alive
But the know-all and riffraff never dies
The law demands its order, he's bored with all their lies read more »

The hour is upon you
Your pride is possessed
You just were not thinking
To have made such a mess
It's hardly worth saying
When words are so cheap
Cheaper than dirt
See what you'll be missing
See what you've brought on
So kind to your prisoner
Just like mother and son
One kiss for the memory
With mouths open wide
And no one gets hurt
Real blood anger
Are you ever so
Yeah you're ever so
Holy divine you can walk on the water
Well it's no attitude
This I'm tell read more »

Sunday morning paper dated 1992
There are cowboys in my kitchen
empty bottles on the roof
I've been trying to quit these cigarettes
I've been trying to think its true
Maybe she's gone to California
maybe Ill go out there too
Daylight fading come and waste another year
all the anger and the elegance are bleeding into fear
moonlight creeping round the corners of our lawn
when she sees the early signs of daylight fading
she leaves just before its gone
Daddy's on the rooftop with his fingers in
the gun and I am waiting at the window I am
waiting for the one
Shying in that paper when she walked into my room I said I want to
say good-bye to you good-bye to all my friends good-bye to everyone I know
Daylight fading come and waste another year
all the anger and the elegance are bleeding into fear
moonlight creeping round the corners of our lawn
when she sees the early signs of daylight fading
she leaves just before its gone
Daylight fading come and waste another year
all the anger and the elegance are bleeding into fear
moonlight creeping round the corners of our lawn
when she sees the early signs of daylight fading
she leaves just before its gone read more »

Temple of darkness
Slipping away through pain
The fear of emptiness
Helpless, I'm being drained

Through the anger of what I have seen
My life is leading ???
Never will I be free read more »

Miles away
The light in the distance looks miles away
Tired of resistance and turned away
Going back to the holy land
Last night your anger was born again
Carry the torch in your heart
And your anger on the vine
Still buried in your pride read more »

(Browne/Glenister)
If I keep you safe
And I keep you warm
If I keep you closer than I need
To turn you on read more »

You call and wake me up, the way you always do
Say you miss me and you’re sorry, deja vu
You push the button in the heart you know so well
The wall starts coming down then I remind myself read more »

Slip inside the eye of your mind
Don’t you know you might find
A better place to play

You said that you’ve never been (sounds like ’bean’ in order to rhyme w/’seen’)
But all the things that you’ve seen
They slowly fade away read more »
