Look into my eyes So you can see my soul There are very few that really know The tenderness of a gentle touch Or the bite that sinks to the bone We can't resist temptation Chorus: Listen carefully to the blackbird when she sings As the crow flies A birds' eye sees everything Speak for the weak I'll always have your back There are very few that see the strength in that The gracefulness of an honest love Or the cunning moves of a sly cat The truth leads us to salvation CHORUS Listen carefully to the blackbird when she sings Look into my eyes so you can see my soul CHORUS

You’re one bottle in At 8 in the evening In a quiet midwestern town When a touch of his hand Stirs an emotion You know you got to shut that right down Now you’ve got to decide On which damn direction That you think you’re going to take But you raise up your glass To help with a decision That you’re not ready to make CHORUS: ‘Till you’re three bottles in It’s hopeless to surrender The devil’s in your head And desire’s got your number You know there’s no way you can win When you start forsaking love for sin Three bottles in You’re 2 bottles in And you’re making excuses For not getting up to leave You’re asking yourself All the right questions But the answers aren’t quite what you need CHORUS You’re 3 bottles in It’s 6 in the morning And you’re lying on your back awake Wondering what the hell Was the spell you were under And you swear you’ll never do it again Yeah you swear you’ll never do it again.... CHORUS

Roses by a graveside Bleached dry by the sun 6 miles form the roadside Off of Highway 61 No one really noticed When he just disappeared Cuz she laid him down With a bullet One shot silenced all of her fears CHORUS: There was a time when she could have run But she took a stand cuz she had a gun Nineteen years of suffering All the bruises and the shame Well she's free now from the shadows Living in a different town With a different name CHORUS No one seems to notice The darkness hiding behind her eyes The coldness of December Creeps into her shallow smile CHORUS

Pinch myself 04:55
Do you remember me? ‘Cuz I will not forget you Or how we used to sleep Underneath the willow Life was simple sweet Lying on your pillow We were wild and free With no place to go But the seasons change and so does the time But you never did in my heart or in my mind Maybe I should wake up Maybe I should scream Maybe I should pinch myself In case it was a dream.... I saw a red leaf fall down from the sky And it landed so softly So I ran over and picked it up and brought it to you Now the seasons change and so does the time But they never did in my heart or in my mind Maybe I should wake up Maybe I should scream Maybe I should pinch myself In case it was a dream....

Sometimes we get stuck in life on rewind I've been spinning the same records for so long The comfort that it brings can be deceiving What I thought was right turned out to be all wrong CHORUS: That's just the way it is When living in fear sometimes living can be missed This time I'm scared as hell Eyes wide open trying to feel around the darkness You can't resist That's just the way it is In the words of the Stones you can't always get what you want The older I get the more sense that makes If you pay attention the signs are brighter than the sun Cut the shit can't change unless you change CHORUS Mirrors always tell the truth Even if you choose not to look There's no key more effective than an open mind That's just the way it is
