"Crumbs From Your Table" lyrics
"Crumbs From Your Table"
From the brightest star
Comes the blackest hole
You had so much to offer
Why did you offer your soul?
I was there for you baby
When you needed my help
Would you deny for others
What you demand for yourself?
Cool down mama, cool off
Cool down mama, cool off
You speak of signs and wonders
But I need something other
I would believe if I was able
But I'm waiting on the crumbs from your table
You were pretty as a picture
It was all there to see
Then your face caught up with your psychology
With a mouth full of teeth
You ate all your friends
And you broke every heart thinking every heart mends
You speak of signs and wonders
But I need something other
I would believe if I was able
But I'm waiting on the crumbs from your table
Where you live should not decide
Whether you live or whether you die
Three to a bed
"Sister Ann," she said
"Dignity passes by"
(And) You speak of signs and wonders
But I need something other
I would believe if I was able
I'm waiting on the crumbs from your table
Hey!

Smashing Pumpkins - "Porcelina Of The Vast Oceans" As far as you take me, that's where I believe
The realm of soft delusions, floatin' on the leaves
On a distant shoreline she waves her arms to me
As all the thought police are closin' in for sleep...
Rush - "Time Stand Still" I turn my back to the wind
To catch my breath
Before I start off again
Driven on without a moment to spend
To pass an evening with a drink and a friend
I let my skin get too thin
I'd like to pause...
Travis - "A Different Room" Once in a while I see what's going on
And disappear into the world
Behind the one that's here
It never lasts as long as a dream can last
And then I'm back into
The ways that make the days go fast
So...
Sheryl Crow - "Home" I woke up this mornin'
And now I understand
What it means to give your life
To just one man
Afraid of feelin' nothing
No bees or butterflies
My head is full of voices
And my house is full of lies...
