Lyrics
HEY DOCTOR:
Hey doctor, could you tell me what’s wrong?
With my daughter, she won’t drink anymore
Hey doctor, could you tell me what’s wrong?
With my daughter, she won’t eat anymore
She won’t eat anymore, oh
She won’t drink anymore, oh
Hey doctor, could you tell me what’s wrong?
With my daughter, she won’t sleep anymore
Hey doctor, could you tell me what’s wrong?
With my daughter, she won’t sleep anymore
Hey doctor, hey doctor…
She won’t sleep anymore, oh
I don’t sleep anymore, oh
Hey doctor, could you tell me what’s wrong?
Hey doctor, could you tell me what’s wrong?
Hey doctor, could you tell me what’s wrong?
Hey doctor, tell me what’s wrong
MAGNETITE:
I don’t want to be a pawn in your fame shop
This life is one and only, it’s the only one I’ve got
Never ceasing to exist, if you only will enlist
I am a man of action, won’t you give me a reaction
For the sake of what you know
As you watch your children grow
For the sake of what you know as the time goes on
Magnetite
Promise me that you’ll hear, as your time comes quite near
When you breathe and you run, don’t forget to have some fun
Are you once and once was mine, can you stand the test of time
Its the main attraction, spoken in a candid fashion
Be careful what you view
What comes in you can’t undo
Be careful what you view as the time goes on
Magnetite
EMPTY APARTMENT:
In an empty apartment is where I play my song
I don’t know anybody in town, nobody
The first day on the job was yesterday, “yes, sir”
In an empty apartment is where I play my song
But you know I don’t mind it at all
I’ve got plans for the future, and it won’t take long
But you know I don’t mind it at all
It won’t take long, no not at all
Lit by a single light bulb
And an open guitar case in the corner of the floor
Leaning up against my neighbor’s wall
Lit by a single light bulb
But you know I don’t mind it at all
I’ve got plans for the future, and it won’t take long
Gonna make a mark on this small
And though not heard, not for long
(Break)
But you know I don’t mind it at all
I’ve got plans for the future, and it won’t take long
Gonna make a mark on this small
And though not heard, not for long
But you know I don’t mind it at all
I’ve got plans for the future, and it won’t take long
But you know I don’t mind it at all
In this world there’s room for all
BURNING BRIGHT:
I know it’s you tonight
I can feel it in your eyes
And it’s you tonight
A fire is burning bright
In your eyes, your eyes
They are fireflies tonight
Burning bright, burning bright
Just like fireflies
Mmm (humming melody)
And it’s you tonight
In your eyes
They burn, they shine like fireflies
They burn tonight
In your eyes, in my mind, they are burning, they show up like fireflies
In my mind, tonight, I know it’s you here with me in this room tonight
Cause it’s burning in my, it’s burning in my mind
Those eyes they’re beautiful fireflies
With me tonight
They burn like fire flies
DON'T GIVE UP:
Don’t give up, never gonna give up
Don’t give up, don’t you ever give up
In the night not gonna give up
The Devil’s coming but he can’t make me give up
Madiba he didn’t give up
Here in the valley I am not gonna give up
In the night my heart won’t give up
The day is coming just don’t give up
Jesus Christ he didn’t give up
My body may die but I’m not gonna give up
Understanding in the Face of Apathy:
When I told you how I feel
Not realizing that it would conceal
Your thoughts your heart
It would not feel
Blinded by my words
Hard to deal
Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh
My heart now burns
Won’t stop to yearn
And feelings were felt
Now start to churn
With I could take back
What I said
And lead your heart
Towards love instead
[Repeat Chorus]
Having:
He that comes is he that goes
The one that leaves never knows
The feeling inside is trapped behold
To the ill is which is sold
Baby I can’t see your eyes whoa
Baby I can hear your cries whoa
Baby I can’t say goodbye whoa
Baby that’s all I want to know
Thoughts that come and leave behind
Memories fade with time
But holding tight and wanting more
Does not compare with having, having
[Repeat Chorus]
The Curl:
As this wave curls around me
I can feel you 1 2 3
In this wave I want to be
I can see you wanting me
This wave uh huh
This wave uh huh
This wave uh huh
This wave uh huh
[Repeat verse and chorus]
Yes I know you want me (whoa)
Yes I feel you on me (whoa)
Yes I know you want me (whoa)
But I can’t breathe when you’re on me
[Repeat Chorus]
As I Go:
Once upon this time I never knew
And that’s alright with me
Cause sometimes it’s hard to see
What’s going on behind
These pages that turn inside
I take them with me
As the sun sets over me
What a beautiful sight
We stand tall and strong
At least that’s how we try
The wind blows forcefully sometimes
As it pushes on by
But it’s not so hard for, for me
Cause I’ve got quick feet
Although it crushes miserably
I won’t take it personally
But now you take this heart
And run it through your teeth
Cause this won’t be the last, ask for the task
Yeah crushing your feet
[Repeat Chorus]
As I go, anana hey, anana heyo
Pray for your soul, anana hey, anana heyo
As I go, anana hey, anana heyo
Pray for your soul, anana hey, anana heyo
Oh, Oh, Oh…
Once Again:
All the ones who came before me
Never knew but now must surely
See the words left not unspoken
Being the ones held high and token
Never knowing that what was said
Would never be known or even read
That once again be left behind
And all it took was a little spine
Well I am the man who once knew it
Once again, again, once again
I am the man who once came to show it
Once again, again, once again
Now it’s out and never again
Be taken away let out what’s in
Those before me can see it now
And hear it all spoken loud
Well I am the man who once knew it
Once again, again, once again
I am the man who once came to show it
Once again, again, once again
I am an open matchbook scratching pauper
Once again, again, once again
I am never opening up this locker
Once again, again, once again
But now is the time
Never show to never know
Now it’s not mine
Can’t claim it mine, not now that it’s out
[Repeat Chorus]
