Dirty Rain lyrics - Ryan Adams

Last time I was here it was raining
It ain't raining anymore
The streets were drowning
Waters waning
All the ruins washed ashore
Now I'm just looking through the rubble
Trying to find out who we were
Last time I was here it was raining
It ain't raining anymore

Last time I was here you were waiting
You're not waiting anymore
The window's broke and the smoke's escaping
All the books scattered across the floor
And the churchbells are ringing through the sirens
And your coat was full of bullet holes
Last time I was here you were waiting
You're ain't waiting anymore

So may the wind blow
May the moonlight know your name
So let the needle move the record round til the walls cave in
And you and I were out there dancing in the dirty rain

Last time I was here it was raining
Like you ain't never ever seen it rain
And your eyes were filled with terror
And the smoke from the gasoline
As the stars exploded with gunfire
I saw you smiling just before
Last time I was here you were crying
You're not crying anymore

So may the wind blow
May the moonlight know your name
So let the needle move the record round til the walls cave in
You and I out there dancing in the dirty rain

Dirty rain
In the dirty rain

Ashes & Fire lyrics - Ryan Adams

As he stared past the fire,
His hunger to leave well it gnawed his poor heart alive,
Her skin smelled like black cherry, blossom perfume,
the sail boats they all sailed by... and a river she cried.

And the wind was suddenly sweeter than Roosevelt pine,
The windows broke out and the cigarette smoke was drifting by,
The bums on the bowery were swallowed in the lights as cars rumbled by in the night...
screaming run for your life.

With cool and silvery eyes and a heart that was fit for desire,
drowned in a river of tears oh a river she cried left her with a heart... made of ashes and fire.

One day there was a silence and it washed through the town,
and there was no reason to speak so no one made a sound,
her eyes were indigo and the cats were all
Calico and the sail boats they all sailed by... and a river she cried.

With cool and silvery eyes and a heart that was fit for desire,
drowned in a river of tears oh a river she cried left her with a heart... made of ashes and fire.

Ashes and fire, Ashes and fire, Ashes and fire.

Come Home lyrics - Ryan Adams

You built this house
You built it stone by stone
Hammer in your hand
You build this home

This house is strong
You raised it with your love
A shelter from the winds
From the cold and dark

And nobody has to cry to make it seem real
And nobody has to hide the way that they feel
If you stay right here tomorrow you'll be fine
I will be here for you standing by your side
So come home, come home

You built those walls
To hide your fears inside
We were younger then
It's safe now to come outside

We built this home
On this little piece of land
The sky above is dark
No rain comes in

Nobody has to cry to make it seem real
Nobody has to hide the way that they feel
If you stay right here tomorrow you'll be fine
I will be here for you standing by your side
So come home, come home

As the storm grows stronger, deeper, and wide
My faith's a winding river with no riverside
As the years grow longer I will be here by your side
Ashes to dust and stone by stone
Forever I will always be your love

Nobody has to cry to make it seem real
Nobody has to hide the way that they feel
If you stay right here tomorrow you'll be fine
I will be here for you standing by your side
So come home, come home, come home

Rocks lyrics - Ryan Adams

Whatever it is you know you think you want
Well here's a little something to light the way
Inside your heart where the darkness stays
I believe the sun still rises here but when it falls
I'm not sure what there is to say
Flickers in mine eye like a memory

I am not rocks
I am not rain
I'm just another shadow in the stream
That's been washed away after all these years
I am not rocks in the river
I am bursting in tears for it

And the day is dawning

Whatever it is you wanted I think you got
But take a little something to light the way
Inside your mind when the weather is gray
I believe the sun still rises here but when it falls
There is something to be said for the calm at night
When the stars up above are so cold and bright

I am not rocks
I am not rain
I'm just another shadow in the stream
That's been washed away after all these years
I am not rocks in the river
I am bursting in tears for it

And the day is dawning
And the day is dawning

Do I Wait lyrics Ryan Adams

Do I want to say the things that I say
When I know that they are wrong?
Do I wait here forever for you?
Could you ask me to?

I've been waiting here all night
If you're not going to show
We're not going to fight
I could stay forever if I tried
Surrounded by things
Like a shadow in the light

Do I try and stay still for you?
And the clouds will part here
An emptiness of the room
Do you watch me from the corner of your eye?
Do we say goodbye?

I waited in the wings for you to appear
But you're never coming back
And we're never going to feel
Like we did
I waited all night
I tried to let you go
Like a shadow in the light
The light

Do I wait?
Do I wait for you?
Do I wait?
Do I wait for you?

Do I wait here forever for you?
Did you ask me to?

Chains Of Love lyrics - Ryan Adams

Walk away slowly
You don't have to take this
In the spaces in between
Sadness on the faces

I could see the chains of love
The chains
Talking about the chains of love
Can't take us away

Storms are brewing in your heart
I don't want to waste it
Better to have tried it all
Least we got to taste it

Locked up in the chains of love
We change
Caught up in the chains of love
Can't take us away

Clouds moving over the house
I think about those days
Wish I had something to relax my mind
Send me off to heaven I've got nothing but time

Lightning in the sky above
Blink and see the traces
And everything you are to me
Is bigger than the spaces

Between us and the chains of love
The chains
Locked up in the chains of love
They can't take us away
Can't take us away
Can't take us away
Can't take us away

Invisible Riverside lyrics - Ryan Adams

Guess I'll show my hand
Either way I'm losing
You still have the goods
Back when I couldn't use them
Standing by the ocean
Like I'm frozen here in time

So don't let go, don't change your mind
If the stars fall into the oceanside
Someone pull the ribbons from my eyes free
My soul
Let it roll away
On an invisible riverside

I didn't travel far
But my feet were moving
Couldn't read the signs
They were too confusing
Standing by the ocean
Sunset boulevard

So don't let go, don't change your mind
If the stars fall into the oceanside
Someone pull the ribbons from my eyes free
My soul
Let it roll away
On an invisible riverside

I wanna lay my head
Forever on your shoulder
Stay with me my love
Now and when we're older
Standing on the ocean
We got nothing now but time

Yea so don't let go, don't change your mind
If the stars fall into the oceanside
Someone pull the ribbons from my eyes free
My soul
Let it roll away
On an invisible riverside

Save Me lyrics - Ryan Adams

What am I doing here?
In the setting sun
With the windows down
What am I?
Like a breaking bell
Ringing like a sigh
What am I doing here?
What am I?

Somebody save me
It's just too much pain
If someone can save me
From the morning, I will remain
Somebody save me
Save me...

In the early dawn
With your heavy bend
And your careless heart
Where you been?
From the windows of
Just another midnight bar
You remember everything
Everything's so far

Somebody save me
I just can't go on
If someone don't save me
By the morning I will be gone
By the morning I will be gone
Somebody save me
Save me...

What am I doing here?

Kindness lyrics - Ryan Adams

If you're so kind can you let down your hand?
Can you let down your hand if you're so kind?
If you're so strong can you shelter the weak?
Will you listen as the strangers speak?
Bring them calm?

Kindness don't ask for much but an open mind
Kindness can cure a broken heart
Honey, I ain't feeling kind

Do you believe in love?
Do you believe in love?

If you're so kind can you let down your hand?
Will you try and understand when it goes wrong?
Days come and gone and it's been said and been done
I will shelter you with my love and my forgiveness

Kindness don't ask for much but an open mind
Kindness can cure a broken heart
Honey, I ain't feeling kind

Do you believe in love?
Do you believe in love?

Kindness don't ask for much but an open mind
Kindness can cure a broken heart
Honey, I ain't feeling kind

Do you believe in love?
Do you believe in love?

Lucky Now lyrics - Ryan Adams

I don’t remember, were we wild and young
All that’s faded into memory
I feel like somebody I don’t know
Are we really who we used to be
Am I really who I was

The lights will draw you in
And the dark will bring you down
And the night will break your heart
Only if you’re lucky now

Waiting outside while you find your keys
Like bags of trash in the blackening snow
City of neon and toes that freeze
We got nothing and nowhere to go
We got nothing and nowhere

The lights will draw you in
And the dark will take you down
And the night will break your heart
Only if you’re lucky now

If the lights draw you in
And the dark can take you down
Then love can mend your heart
But only if you’re lucky now

I don’t remember, were we wild and young
All that’s faded into memory
I feel like somebody I don’t know
Are we really who we used to be
Am I really who I was

I Love You But I Don't Know What To Say lyrics - Ryan Adams

We belong here, we belong here
Ain’t nobody that can tell us we’re wrong
Help me say, say this to you
I’ll stand by your side, to see you through

I promise you that I’ll keep you safe from harm
I’ll love you all the rest of my days
When the night is silent and we seem so far away
Oh I love you but I don’t know what to say

I was lost, I was lost
Tried to find the balance, got caught up in the cost
Let it go, when I met you
All the clouds parted, all that light came shining through

I promise you I will keep you safe from harm
And love you all the rest of my days
When the night is silent and we seem so far away
Oh I love you and I don’t know what to say

I promise you that I will keep you safe from harm
And love you all the rest of my days
When the night is silent and we seem so far away
Oh I love you and I don’t know what to say
Oh I love you and I don’t know what to say

Breakdown Into The Resolve lyrics - Ryan Adams

Hi, hello, its me again, don't worry ill talk slow
Wow, you probably heard I went away
Where do we start from?
I know
From the breakdown, into the fold
The breakdown, another black hole
Like a shadow in the light, stand up and be counted
I was born to be betrayed, it's clear that I'm clearly afraid of
So its one for every year
Its pitiful what I hold dear, I throw away
And so, it still comes and goes
It's better now, that I get these bad ideas, I get my dreams confused....wishes
bad ideas, bad ideas to lie me down and get into the resolve
I forgot, how long it was since I had a thought that wasn't
Dark yet I know I hate myself a lot
The breakdown into the fold
Breakdown, another black hole
Like a shadow in the night
The shows over shows over
I was born to be afraid, alright
And so, its one for every year its pitiful what I hold dear, I throw away
No, it still comes and goes
It's better but I get these bad ideas
I get my dreams confused with my wishes
Bad ideas
Bad ideas
To lie me down and get into the resolve
Do the resolve, do the resolve
Do the resolve, do the resolve
Do the resolve, do the resolve

Dear Candy lyrics - Ryan Adams

I was never near
just a shadow on your walls
I was never here at all.

Dear Candy...

I was never yours.
You were never mine.
I was never near at all.

Dear Candy...

This was all a fantasy of yours.
This was just a dream you had
and I was never here.
I was never here.

You were never mine.
I was never yours.

Whoah, Candy.
Oh, Candy.

Do you see me in your dreams?
Do you whisper my name?
Do you hear when my static rings in your ears?
Candy

I was never yours.
You were never mine.
I was never near at all.

Dear Candy...

This was all a fantasy of yours.
This was just a dream you had
and I was never here.
I was never here.
I was never here at all.
Oh, Candy

Wasteland lyrics - Ryan Adams

There's evidence now that's somebody's lying
And things to work out bout nobody's trying
I wish I didn't care anymore, as if you cared what I was feeling

Look at all the stars, watch them colliding
These Stars fighting in their secret wars

Underneath the dirt whatever i was hiding
is turning into dust the dust is still rising
I wish I didn't care anymore, but you know I care so little

it's like I see the stars, watch them colliding
These Stars fighting in their secret wars
Before, before it was inviting, now I'm bored
you don't impress me and I find you slightly terrifying

It's your wasteland you have it

Ultraviolet Light lyrics - Ryan Adams

This is the silence so nobody understand
Iced ocean leaves our ships just sliding in
Could forming, lighting shooting from it's hands
Sky's on fire, make a wish and use it quick my friend

Come on, come on, come on
Let's go it's getting darker
Come on, come on, come on, come on let's go...
Come on, come on, come on, come on
Before my wish expires
Something bad is on the horizon
Shining ultraviolet light

I see you hovering oblivious to air
The laws of nature don't apply, don't apply to her
No wonder that the world came to an end
There was another on the other side
Inside her head

Come on, come on, come on
Let's go it's getting darker
Come on, come on, come on, come on let's go...
Come on, come on, come on, come on
Before my wish expires
Something bad is on the horizon
Shining ultraviolet light

Shining ultraviolet light

Slow violence only radiates the sand
Delete your messages and...
Come on, come on, come on
Ultraviolet light's know the best way in
Don't wake the monsters in my head
Tip toe they're sleeping in

Come on, come on, come on
Let's go it's getting darker
Come on, come on, come on, come on let's go...
Come on, come on, come on, come on
Before my wish expires
Something bad is on the horizon
Shining ultraviolet light

This was a wish, this was a wish I made...
This was a wish, this was a wish I made...
This was a wish, this was a wish I made...
This was a wish, this was a wish I made...
This was a wish....
Now here comes the light...
Now here comes the light...
Here comes the light...

Stop Playing With My Heart lyrics - Ryan Adams

Stop dragging my heart around
Stop acting, stop fucking around
Stop playing, stop playing with my head
Alright, already you win...

Stop asking if I'm with her
Stop it now before you get what you deserve
Stop playing, stop playing with my head
Alright, already you win...
Alright, already you win...

Stop it I'm tired, and I want to go to bed
Stop it I'm half undressed, so get out or get in
Stop it I'm not impressed...
So just stop it, just stop it, just stop it....
Stop playing my head...
Alright, already you win...

Stop it I'm not impressed...
So just stop it, just stop it, just stop it....
Stop playing my head...
Alright, already you win...

Stop dragging my heart around
Stop acting, stop fucking around
Stop playing, stop playing with my head
Alright, already you win...
Stop playing, stop playing with my head
Alright, already you win...
Stop playing, stop playing with my heart

Lovely And Blue lyrics - Ryan Adams

So glad that you found someone
Someone and so fast
It's time to let go of someone
And put it to rest
But I don't feel sorry for you
Not sorry at all
No I don't feel sorry for him or for her
My world is gonna revolve
It's gonna keep spinning around me, doll
The world where no one belongs to her
And you're the one she thinks she wants
It's true, she's lovely and blue

So now that it's underground
And they're talking too fast
Whatever that they're talking about, it's not me,
It's all in the past
And I don't feel sorry for you
I'm not sorry at all
No I don't feel sorry, in fact just the opposite
My world is gonna revolve
It's gonna keep spinning around me
The world where no one belongs to her
And you're the one she wants
My world
My world is gonna revolve
It's gonna to keep spinning round me, doll
The world where no one belongs to her
And you're the one she thinks she wants
She thinks, she wants, the world
The world she thinks she wants
It's hers and you'll never get through
Oh god it's so true
It's true,
It's true, she so lovely and blue

Happy Birthday lyrics - Ryan Adams

I told everybody I was late
But I was hiding in the back
Hiding in the back my hands would shake
Happy Birthday I'm your birthday cake

And I'm lit, and I'm baked
And I'm tired, I tried to escape
From the fight, I got untied
I was wrong, you were right...
I was wrong, you were right...
Happy Birthday

I told everybody I was clean
But I had clouds in my bath
Listening to music, reading poetry
Nodding off and nearly drowning myself

And it's clear you're clearly upset
Wanna smoke, but my smokes are all wet
I've got two, both of them lit
Happy Birthday
Happy Birthday
Happy Birthday
Happy Birthday

Happy Birthday
I'm your birthday cake and I'm lit...

Kisses Start Wars lyrics - Ryan Adams

First things first, straight out of the box
it's time to open your presents babe
here's a family full of light I know it's not much
This one is mine, I keep it with me all the time like a crutch
Like something ancient passed down from a father
something that nobody can touch

A kiss away from seeing the stars
you and I we are always on the way
on the way or in between the bars
and those kisses, those kisses they're lost

But don't worry baby
it's not you,
this can't be as crazy
and these kisses start the wars

I got to taste her sleepin'
but like junkies hate the blood
like drunks with all their missin' cigarettes
in apartments with skulls and blacked out windows

Artificial flowers and T.V. remote controls
I get lost, things change people don't
people don't, things change no

A kiss away from seeing the stars
you and I we are always on the way
on the way or in between the bars
and those kisses, those kisses they're lost

But don't worry baby
it's not you,
this can't be as crazy

Oh don't, don't worry baby
it's not you, this can't be as crazy
yeah these kisses start the wars
these kisses start the wars

The Crystal Skull lyrics - Ryan Adams

I make reservations at the Crystal Skull for me...
For me, and Scarlet, and a a friend of hers
I'm not gonna lie to you it only gets worse
She gets so disconnected when her glass is too full

And Scarlet gets bombed
And Scarlet gets high and she breaks into song
Scarlet gets loud, Scarlet gets lost
And the gloves come off
And she's like this every night...
Down at the Crystal Skull
The Crystal Skull is open all night

I think I was ready for a quiet night...
A quiet night of talking we ended up...
Ended up, ended up downtown
'Cause Scarlet's thirsty inside
She's a fisherman who drains the ocean first...
And then decides

And Scarlet gets bombed
And Scarlet gets high and she breaks into song
Scarlet gets loud, Scarlet gets angry
And Scarlet is so tired...
She's been swimming for awhile...
Nobody reaches shore riding the crimson tide

Down at the Crystal Skull...
The Crystal Skull
The Crystal Skull
The Crystal Skull is open all night...
Is open all night

And Scarlet's ready to go out tonight
Go out tonight
Go out tonight
Scarlet's ready to go out...
Tonight
Tonight
Tonight
Scarlet's ready to go out...
Tonight

Users lyrics - Ryan Adams

I try so hard to be good
I get these bad ides
I try so hard to be good
It doesn't always work out
It doesn't always work out
But I try...

To feel the sunlight on my eyes
Shake off the shadows
That were following me around
It's very nice you know and quite a lot to take in
To feel the sunlight and start growing again

I taught myself to push it away
I was watching, watching you do it to me
I taught myself to throw it away

And you get used to being happy
you get used to it, used to it, used to it...

I like to thing about the clouds...
How they are moving
Sometimes it's nice to stay home...
When everybody goes out
It's nice and quiet when they call it's so loud
I don't understand

I shuffle cool across the boulevard
My feet move steady, my shoes go up and down
I'm always late you know...
Late and never ready
I keep it steady though
When I get tight and all up right

I taught myself to push it away
I was watching, watching you do it to me
I taught myself to throw it away

And you get used to being happy
you get used to it, used to it, used to it...

Make no mistake to be user don't mean loser
Witty and cruel they are so easy to confuse
You'll learn eventually or...
Eventually you'll lose it...
Eventually you'll lose it...
Get used to it...

No lyrics - Ryan Adams

No silence, no sound
No feeling, on and on and on and on...
Go under and go down again and on and on...

No pressure, no talk
No heartbeat, R-E-S-P-O-N-S-E
I go under and go down again and on and on....

Something is wrong, something is wrong
Something that was making me feel good is not
Something is wrong, something is wrong
Something that was making me feel good is not
Is not, is not, is not...
Nobody understands and it's all I got

No violence profound...
As violence, I act out against myself
When I go under and down again and on and on...

No wonder I fell
Nobody was underneath me there to catch me
When I go under and down again and on and on...

Something is wrong, something is wrong
Something that was making me feel good is not
Something is wrong, something is wrong
Something that was making me feel good is not
Is not, is not, is not...
Nobody understands and it's all I got

So liar, stand up
So liar, stand up
Stand up

Numbers lyrics - Ryan Adams

Here comes your song, it's on the radio
Here comes your song, here comes your song
Everybody in the backseat, come and sing along

We're fucked, we're fucked
There's been an accident, somebody stole your face
We're fucked, we're fucked
You were always something else, there's nothing to replace

You got some shit to throw out
You got some numbers to erase

Numbers, numbers, numbers, numbers
Ringing all night, it's slower than the bar
Numbers, numbers, numbers, numbers
How do you spell
Look way around or replace those numbers?

Here comes your song, it's on the stereo
So turn it on, so turn it up
Everybody in the backseat's about to throw up

We're fucked, we're fucked
There's been a tragedy, hardly words remind us, baby
We're fucked, we're fucked
Fuck, you walked in a piece, this isn't war and peace

You were always good enough
There was nothing to replace
You got some shit to throw out
You got some numbers to erase

You got names to forget
Plus some people to call
There was nothing to replace
You've been good enough all along

You just got settled in
And you wanna get down
And feel like you are loved
Feel like you are loved

Nobody's mad at you
These people love you
And they wanna see you are bein' strong
Wanna see you are bein' strong

So lose no numbers, numbers, numbers
Numbers, numbers, numbers, numbers
Numbers, numbers, numbers, numbers
Numbers, numbers, numbers

So lose no numbers, numbers, numbers
Numbers, numbers, numbers, numbers
Numbers, numbers, numbers, numbers
Numbers

So lose the numbers, numbers, numbers
Numbers, numbers, numbers, numbers
Numbers, numbers, numbers, numbers
Numbers

So lose the numbers, numbers, numbers
Numbers, numbers, numbers, numbers
Numbers, numbers, numbers, numbers
Numbers, numbers, numbers, numbers
The names and the phone

Here comes your song, it's on the stereo
Here comes your song, it's on the radio
Here comes your song, here comes your song

We're fucked, we're fucked
And hung up alone

Gracie lyrics - Ryan Adams

Hello Gracie you're a good little girl
it's a beautiful world oh when you're out in it
Last time I saw you playing in the yard
You were running with children and the old people were smiling
Do you miss me would you know me at all?
If you walked by my house would you smile and turn the corner?
Blow your kisses oh make it feel worse
you know you gotta make the best of the time got has given you

I scratch your name into a wall on the beach with my keys on the side of the pier
I used to sleep so I would dream I was lying with you mid-summer
in the grass in the fields

Nobody was right Nobody was wrong, but somebody had to go
Nobody is here so nobody is gone, hello, goodbye, hello
hello, hello, hello

I scratch your name in my arm with my keys on the beach on the side of the pier
I keep your picture in a frame on the wall of my place
down the block far enough away it's like I'm not here

You're in my heart and you're in my soul, so I have to let you go
You're in my heart and you're in my soul, but I gotta let you go
Hello, Hello, Hello, Hello I gotta let you go
Hello, Hello, Hello I gotta let you go
I gotta let you go, goodbye, goodbye
I gotta let you go, goodbye, goodbye, goodbye
I gotta let you go

Icebreaker lyrics - Ryan Adams

I don't see you've gone past me
I don't see it, don't see it
Don't see it, don't see it at all

I don't see them, they're lookin' for me
I don't see them, they don't see me
Guess it was invisible

Ice
The ice
Ice
Ice, ice, ice
Icicle, icicle

I don't see you've gone past me
I don't see it, don't see it
Don't panic, they know you are numb

I don't see them, they're looking for me
I don't see them, they don't see me
Guess it was invisible

Ice, ice, ice
Ice, ice, ice
Icicle, icicle

There's too many lights in here
And I don't understand
I don't understand
Where I'm goin', whether I'm dead

There's too many lights in here
And I don't understand
I think I hear an angel singin'

Hear an angel softly beside you
Hear an angel ?? anymore
Underneath the ice, beneath all, you died twice

I don't see you walkin' past me
I don't see you, don't hear you
??

I don't hear them, they're lookin' for me
I don't hear them, they don't hear me
Underneath the icicle

The ice
Ice, ice , ice

I don't see you've gone past me
I don't see it, don't see it
Don't see it, don't see it at all

Sewers At The Bottom Of The Wishing Well lyrics - Ryan Adams

No time to explain
Always hopeless in a hurry
There's no one to blame
For an empty heart

Well, well, well
Nothing's gonna change
Nothing's gonna change our way out
Into the sewers at the bottom of the wishing well

My heart isn't black
It's just dirty from the floors
Nobody walks across
Nobody walks across or sleeps on anymore

Well, well, well
Nothing's gonna change
Nothing's gonna change, oh well
Into the sewers at the bottom of the wishing well
Wishing well
Wishing well
At the bottom of the wishing well

No one left to blame
No body to dismember
Just a shadow on the floor
A shadow on the floor
From a light that wasn't on, oh well
Well, well
Nothing's gonna change
Oh well
Into the sewers at the bottom of the wishing well
The bottom of the wishing well
Wishing well
At the bottom of the wishing well
Oooh
Oooh
Oh

Typecast lyrics - Ryan Adams

you and I we were born to play these parts and we play them so well
so well and often sometimes you and I forget you know who we really are
it keeps me locked into the deal

Binary stars, companions in the sky always in orbit but never to collide
we're just not going supernova any time soon
we're just two stars out under the moon

Typecast, we play losers who keep falling in love with the wrong ones
Typecast, what a show, why won't they cancel us?
we got a million more seasons to go
oh no, oh yes, we've been typecast

every shadow I knew you underneath was just a studio trick, a spotlight on the stage
black bottles to simulate the depth
to manipulate the young and naive and hide your age

we're worse than liars we're paid to be fixed
ghost lights in our living rooms for in-between matinées
two lonely stars someplace beyond the moon where the light is coming from
but never receiving or getting any

We're typecast, we play losers who keep falling in love with the wrong ones
Typecast, what a show, why won't they cancel us?
oh come on, typecast, we play losers who keep falling in love with the wrong ones
Typecast, what a show, why won't they cancel us?
We've been typecast, yeah we've been typecast

Star Wars lyrics - Ryan Adams

All I want, all I want, all I want is a girl
Someone that cares enough about me
That she refuses to react
When I act like I don't care about her

Ice-packs for my shiners
Though you're on my nerves
Someone smart enough to click me back together
?? simple and suede and still evadable

Is that too much to ask?
Is that too much to ask?
Is that too much to ask?
Well, I don't know

(Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh)
Someone I love and who loves me
(Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh)
Yeah, that and maybe the world
(Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh)

Someone that loves me the way of
Star Wars, Wizards and Ninja Wars
Star Wars, Wizards and Ninja Wars

All I want, all I want, all I want is the chance
Someone with lasers and mirrors for eyes
Catching radio waves of Valium plants

That can dance to the music
And hover in the air
Someone that makes me feel at home whenever
Today, tomorrow, you get it forever

Is that too much to ask?
Is that too much to ask?
Is that too much to ask?
Well, I don't know

(Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh)
Someone I love and who loves me
(Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh)
Yeah, that and maybe the world
(Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh)

Someone that loves me the way of
Star Wars
Star Wars, Wizards and Ninja Wars
Star Wars, Wizards and Ninja Wars

My Favorite Song lyrics - Ryan Adams

My favorite song, don't know how it goes
It's temperamental like the static coming over the radio
When I signal to her satellite, nobody is home
And oh, she's never in danger and never met a stranger

Heaven and earth, body and soul
Tell me that you miss me now that I'm gone
Like a book in a fireplace, too hot to read
All hot and on fire, let's go to sleep

By the way, I'm free tonight
If you wanna go out and see a movie or something
You're my favorite

My favorite songs go by, people stare
You know they need a lot of oxygen and like to wash their hair
And I can build a telephone out of tin cans
So we can have some conversations across the string nobody understands
Say what?

Heaven and earth, body and soul
Tell me that you miss me now that I'm gone
Crosses in a field, strange men with huge hats
Two guitars and one violin
In rented black suits with the wrong size on
They try to play it, but they get it all wrong
Three different keys at once, that's my favorite
That's my favorite song

Hey, I'm free tonight
If you wanna go out and see a movie
And don't call me pal
OK, bye
You're my favorite
You're my favorite
You're my favorite

So don't give up
Don't give up

P.S. lyrics - Ryan Adams

P.S. I ain't never comin' back, I ain't never comin' back here again
it's over we're through
don't ask someone to change, don't ask someone to change
again until you know what you want them to change into
backed up against the wall, somehow you're still shining through

And by the way, I'm so sorry that I let you down
By the way, it's true
but anyway, someone's always gonna let you down
if not me, then who?

P.S. I'm so sorry that I let you down again
I'm so sorry that I let you down...

This is gonna haunt your dreams,
this is gonna haunt your dreams when you sleep to me
Don't ask someone to change, don't ask someone to change
until you want to around that mirror back on your own face

Backed up against the wall, somehow you're still shining through

And by the way, I'm so sorry that I let you down
By the way, it's true
but anyway, someone's always gonna let you down
anyway, if not me, then who?
P.S. I'm so sorry that I let you down again
I'm so sorry that I let you down
P.S. I'm so sorry that I let you down again
I'm so sorry that I let you down again

I Taught Myself How To Grow Old lyrics - Ryan Adams

Poor little rose, beaten by the rain
In the wind in the gale, thunder and the hail
Sometimes I feel like I'm going insane
Without the numbness or the pain so intense to feel
Especially now it added up through the years

And I, I taught myself how to grow
Without any love and there was poison in the rain
I taught myself how to grow
Now I'm crooked on the outside, and the inside's broke

Most of the time I got nothing to say
When I do it's nothing and nobody's there to listen anyway
I know I'm probably better off this way
I just listen to the voices on the TV 'til I'm tired
My eyes grow heavy and I fade away

'Cause I, I taught myself how to grow
Without any love and there was poison in the rain
I taught myself how to grow
'Til I was crooked on the outside
I taught myself how to grow
Without any love and there was poison in the rain
I taught myself how to grow
'Til I was crooked on the outside, inside's caved
Crooked on the outside, inside's caved
Crooked on the outside, inside's caved
I taught myself how to grow old

Nobody Listens To Silence lyrics - Ryan Adams

Nobody listens to silence like your girl
Whitening margins
Mouthing the words
Letters flying fast
Turning into words
Sweeping the floor
Making room
Pulling up the carpet
Staples and all
The newspapers underneath
And over shards of broken glass
Pushed up into the corner with your foot
Just in case your girl got up and
Decided to dance
Gave you a moment to collect yourself
Took your hand and awake with the second guess
You lose your spot
In your long line of losses
No second chances and
Your dreams go sweaty and your brow
Enter the pit with no bottom under it
While she fucks him like a fucking machine
Greased to the bolts till the bolts come up
And her dress goes slam torn from the seam to her leg
Listenin to her saying it's name and beg
Nobody listens to silence like your girl
Without your ear to the door and eye to the keyhole
And into the floor smashed like a train on the side of a bridge
Suitcase burning orange lines over the underpass
People on the telephones
And people to answer
Hair dye smudged on the sides of the tub
All bets of the years
On the crest of her forehead her mother used to kiss
And you got to school you're broken up
Your signal went static
And your killer confessed
Your soda went flat
And your arm went numb
And you smoked until your voice went all stinking and rough
And bugs in the kitchen
So fuck between the lines
Looking for the highlights
She loves him like her man
Smoking cigarettes with him
On the edge of the bed

Nobody listens to silence like your girl
Nobody listens to silence like your girl
Nobody listens to silence like your girl
Nobody listens to silence

Wonderwall lyrics - Ryan Adams

(originally by Oasis)

Today is gonna be the day
That they're gonna give it back to you
By now you should've somehow
Realized what you gotta do
I don't believe that anybody
Feels the way I do about you now

Backbeat the word is on the street
That the fire in your heart is out
I'm sure you've heard it all before
But you never really had a doubt
I don't believe that anybody feels
The way I do about you now

And all the roads we have to walk are winding
And all the lights that lead the way are blinding
There are many things that I
Would like to say to you
But I don't know how

I said maybe
You're gonna be the one that saves me
And after all
You're my wonderwall

Today was gonna be the day
But they'll never bring it back to you
By now you should've somehow
Realized what you gotta do
I don't believe that anybody
Feels the way I do
About you now

And all the roads we have to walk are winding
And all the lights that lead the way are blinding
There are many things that I
would like to say to you
But I don't know how

I said maybe
You're gonna be the one that saves me
And after all
You're my wonderwall
You're my wonderwall
You're my wonderwall

I Want To Go Home lyrics - Ryan Adams

Oh my baby I'm so very tired
And I wanna come home
Everything inside me, it cant hide me I'm expired
I got nothing to show
Whatever's on the outsides knocking, ya better let it in
Whatever's on the insides dying out
Am I gonna lose your love?
Am I gonna lose your love?
Am I gonna lose your love?
Am I gonna lose your love?
Once upon a time my life was sweet, and I was walking with you
I'm on empty, emptier than what I was I lost
At the the end of the street
Whatever's on the outsides knocking, ya better let it in
Whatever's on the insides dying out
Am I gonna lose your love?
Am I gonna lose your love?
Am I gonna lose your love?
Am I gonna lose your love?
Am I gonna lose your love?
Am I gonna lose your love?
Oh my baby I'm so very tired and I wanna come home
Oh my baby I'm so very tired and I wanna come home
Oh my baby I'm so very tired and I wanna come home

Suspicion lyrics - Ryan Adams

Ain't it like the sun to never shine
And leave you in the dark
Ain't it like the ones we left behind
Or were they moving on
Getting used to all alone
Just pretending you was here
Voices tearing through the halls
Get used to it kid

Suspicion, shame on the things we did
Suspicion, stealing and lying to prove
Suspicion, it's cold and dark as a well
But it's just suspicion

Ain't it like the gals who want to kiss
To be a friend to you
Ain't it like the string of consequence
To put the faith in you
All I want to do is buy some time
For the sake of memory
All I want to do is to try
To hold on to these things

Suspicion, haunting the streets of time
Suspicion, boys they really got us this time
Suspicion, it's cold and dark as a well
Suspicion

For all the things we need
We only want the ones
We couldn't seem to keep
We hurt the ones we love
We hurt the ones we love
We hurt the ones we love
Get used to it kid

Suspicion, haunting the streets of time
Suspicion, boy they really got us this time
Suspicion, shame on the things we did

My Blue Manhattan lyrics - Ryan Adams

My blue Manhattan,
She's angry like a child, but how sweet
Fire and rain on the street,
It's you against me most days
It's me against you, doll.

The snow is coming down
On the cars in midtown.
Stone cold in sheets with you all over me,
Ain't that sweet, my little gal?
Ain't that sweet, my little gal?

My blue Manhattan,
She cusses with her sailor's mouth
And fire and rain on the streets
It's you against me most days
It's me against you, doll.

Making snow angels in the gravel and the dirt
Crawling like a spider,
And I'm somewhere inside her
Too hurt to move, too hurt to move
My blue Manhattan.

Fuck The Universe lyrics - Ryan Adams

Slowly, coming over me
Like fire and ice
Confusion all to the ground

Stone me like you own me
The strangest moving patterns
All flow through this city

Strummin' as she's cumin'
She starts a revolution
But never shows up

So holy, give me coma
Alkaline and mainframes
Into a kiss

Cities destroyed and so pretty
The patterns of illusion
Burn through the ground

And I'm a faker, faker
I'm a faker, I'm a faker, I'm a faker
Vampire, coffins to kiss

I'm a faker, I'm a faker
Morning may crawl
Fuck you and fuck the universe

Fuck the universe
Fuck the universe
Fuck the universe

Twice As Bad As Love lyrics - Ryan Adams

Candy is quick and she's good at impressions
She's stacked on the corner, man, she's stacked on the street
They don't make pills for that kind of depression
Counting her friends on her hands and her feet
You let it roll right through your fingertips, babe
Running as hard and as fast as you could
Mainlining paint in some place in New Jersey
Misunderstanding what was misunderstood
And that's twice as bad as love, oh
Twice as bad as love, and not that sad
Twice as bad as love
Once to be heard, twice to be had

She imagines herself as a saint or a poet
Stealing the words from a book that she borrowed
We show her some fuck that she met in the projects
Yeah, but he made her feel like she belonged
You let it roll right through your fingertips, Candy
Got a blast from the skin said it tasted like paint
Stealing her money for ancient prescriptions
Misunderstanding that it's kind of cool to be late
And it's twice as bad as love
Twice as bad as love, but not that sad
Twice as bad as love

Once to be heard, twice to be had
Once to be heard, twice to be had

Halloween lyrics - Ryan Adams

Heart stops beating, all the words worth repeating
She is dancing but not singing, is it maybe that she doesn't know the words?
She's dressed up, but don't worry, she's got friends
Snowflake eating, she is mildly self-defeating
And the secrets that she's keeping they are really only dangerous to her
Ships ain't sinking
We are here to help you sing your songs
We are here to help you sing your songs
Because tomorrow comes and no one calls

She stops grinning when the room it starts spinning
She is losing all her winnings, she's angry but it's just the alcohol
She's all fucked right up, it's okay, man, she's got friends
'Cause we are here to help her sing her songs
We are here to help her sing her songs
Because tomorrow's gonna come
Tomorrow's gonna come, and no one's gonna call

This isn't Christmas, this is Chinatown and those are pretty lights
Just use some more and put 'em on your make-up dolls
A painting on the underneath that never smiles on the scene
Is just like Christmas if it was Halloween

Someone taught her it's okay to be a martyr
Like an educated angel, be a rat, you know in all the things you love,
Well okay
Priceless pictures, she's collected iceless fixtures that is freezing from the people
She's chosen out to help her through it all
Whatever
We are here to help you sing your songs
We are here to help you sing your songs
We are here to help you sing your songs
Because tomorrow's gonna come
Tomorrow's gonna come, and no one's gonna call

Caterwaul lyrics - Ryan Adams

How can I explain to you
What you did to me with words
Words just like the ones you used

They mean nothing at all
Buy the caterwaul, caterwaul
Caterwaul
Through my lonely hall

Selfish and so conceited
By the way you destroy me
Words just like ones you used

They mean nothing at all to you
But they caterwaul, caterwaul
Caterwaul
Through my lonely hall
Caterwaulm caterwaul
