BLUE OCTOBER
SchizophreniaA silver plated numbing gum
And jesus resting on my thumb
A hard to reach malaria
I've got the mood that seems to scare ya.
I'm paranoid, self destroyed.
Believe me lord I'm sorry
I've got the mood that seems to bury ya.
I've got the nightmare called...
Schizophrenia
(Chorus)
I cry. I cry and I don't know why.
The fever becomes my home.
I cry. I cry and I don't know why.
The fever becomes my home.
Becomes my home.
I love it when you're holding me.
You have a gentle way of calming.
I haven't felt that way since 1993,
When my mother held me.
I bet you're waiting for the long sob story
Of how I was mistreated again.
No, I wasn't built that way.
I was strong but desperatley brave,
And I didn't mean to scare ya...
Schizophrenia.
(Repeat Chorus)
BLUE OCTOBER
Calling YouThere's something that I can't quite explain.
I'm so in love with you, you'll never take that away.
And if I've said a hundred times before, expect a thousand more.
(You'll never take that away).
Well, expect me to be calling you to see if you're ok when I'm not around.
Asking if you love me, I love the way you make it sound.
Calling you to see:
Do I try too hard to make you smile? To make us smile?
Well I will keep calling you to see:
If you're sleeping, are you're dreaming?
If you're dreaming, are you dreaming of me?
I can't believe...you actually picked...me
I thought that the world had lost its way (It's so hard sometimes)
Then I fell in love with you (then came you)
and you took that way (Its not so difficult. The world is not so difficult)
You take away the old, show me the new,
and I feel like I can fly when I stand next to you.
So while I'm on this phone, a hundred miles from home
I take the words you gave, and send them back to you.
I only want to see if you're ok when I'm not around.
Asking if you love me, I love the way you make it sound.
Calling you to see:
Do I try too hard to make you smile? To make us smile?
I will keep calling you to see:
If you're sleeping are you dreaming?
If you're dreaming, are you dreaming of me?
I can't believe...you actually picked...me.
Well, I will keep calling you to see:
If you're sleeping are you dreaming?
If you're dreaming, are you dreaming of me?
I can't believe...you actually picked...me.
I will keep calling you to see:
If you're sleeping are you dreaming?
If you're dreaming, are you dreaming of me?
I can't believe...you actually picked...me

BLUE OCTOBER
Conversation Via RadioYou must be broken
By a thousand ways of wasting time
Get to the point
And off a hundred lines a week
No need to change my mind
A cleaner shade of thinking time
But I seem to think more than I act upon most things. oh.
(Chorus)
Do you ever wonder
How hard you hit?
You broke my thunder
Do you ever wonder?
A scar was sewn
A drop of bread was saved for making wine
Still no repent
Oh how you crumble when I shake
A mental jaw was used
To pry me from this wrecking bond
But the sad detail is all the promises I make.
(Repeat Chorus)
I'm cramped and crawling from under the dead
I'm sick of living without you in bed and I
I've made mistakes that I wrote...That I read...
But now I just can't seem to be preoccupied
The heart was tossed with a black lace chain and
With these hand that I write with
And the ode that I live by...you know
I will never be with you
(Repeat Chorus)
'Cause God made this night for me, a silly devil in me talking
Romantic company for walking. Over and out...Over and out...
But this year's the year I write to be, that silly devil in me talking
Romantic company for walking. Over and out...Over and out
(Repeat Chorus)
how hard you hit
you broke my...
you broke my...
you broke my
you broke my thunder
BLUE OCTOBER
Inner GlowI'm like a storm cloud eager when to go wild
Calm again
I ask permission for the wrong to win
Drop the bomb and get your story out and get it on
In a haze, the beginning of your days
Going to fall down
Got to get back up, but at your own pace
Get to fill your cup and find the way
Out of your own maze
Yeah boy... What you said now!
And hide the rule book throw it in the waste
Look strong
Like you belong... Cause you do belong
Whether right or wrong... You belong
Cause, I'm on your side... If you fail, at least you tried
To keep your aching, celebrating,
Wonder making heart alive. . Yeah.
And pride... Don't keep it all inside
Don't keep your aching, celebrating,
Wonder making heart alone...
Write your own song.
What ever happened to our inner glow?
What ever happened to the song, the soul, the me, I used to know?
What ever happened to my radio?
What ever happened to my song?
It is my song.
So here's a preview. shove it under old/new
Or call it rock, or pop, or Bach, or ****...
Goddamn! Where did we go wrong?
Now there's a category for every song
Yeah, we only want to sing when we want to
Yeah, we only want a dream we can flaunt to
Yeah, we only want to fly by the side, making love
To the rhythm, be a Jeckyl and a Hyde
Yeah, we only want a field we can run through
Yeah, we only want a beat we can drum to
Yeah, we only want to fly by the side, making love
To the rhythm, be a Jeckyl and a Hyde
So stride... if you fail, at least you tried
To keep your aching, celebrating
Wonder making heart alive
And pride... Don't keep it all inside
Don't keep your aching, celebrating
Wonder making heart alone
Write your own song.
What ever happened to our inner glow?
What ever happened to the song, the soul, the me, I used to know?
What ever happened to my radio?
What ever happened to the song?
It is my song.
