"Never" lyrics

We've got to find a quick way out of here, or we can stay here and rot.
We, living shadows in the smoke and beer, resenting all we never got.
We've got to claim the age and make it ours; put down our fears and just begin.
We'll make no deals, we'll take no captives, we'll play the game to win! Yeah!

Somewhere back there someone is fooling you - you're skunked enough to think you're free.
Too duped to know this one is ruling you - you slave for what you cannot see.
The only one who knows what's good for you is you, within, it's yours to own.
Don't beg for handouts, don't play the victim, your soul is not on loan -
Your soul is not on loan.

Chorus
The architect of your intellect calls you but the urge to disconnect stalls you,
Do you cringe and genuflect to some insect who expects you to defer?
Never!

You're caught up in the old, enticing view: the law will honor what you own.
A potentate who'll just be nice to you - forbid the thought, you stand alone.
Remember what you call the Infinite - if infinite, then who are you?
Don't let the dreaming forget the dreamer or what you came to do -
Or what you came to do.

Chorus

The architect of your intellect calls you but the urge to disconnect stalls you,

Do you cringe and genuflect to some insect who expects you to defer?

Never! Never! Never!

"Deep Inside" Lyrics

I'm still working on my own thing, tryin' to get it right

(I don't think I'll get much sleep tonight).

'Been dreaming like a winner, living like a bum,

I can't do much more right now than let the pictures come -

Come to mind, flying blind, drifting with the tide,

Sifting through the chaos deep inside.

The gleanings of a life - a life I'd never live -

Things that I would hang onto, sins I would forgive -

Deep inside, deep inside -

Those dreams of sweet acceptance and hungers long denied.

I'm just living in a bottle, ignored and out of sight,

But I'm not going down without a fight!

I've been longing like a sinner, living like a saint,

Slowly going crazy being what I ain't -

Ain't it swell, I can't tell how many times I've tried

To make some sense of everything I hide:

The pleasure and the pain - a pain I'd never lose -

Angels I'd abandon, devils I would choose -

Deep inside, deep inside -

Those dreams of sweet acceptance and hungers long denied.

Dreams of sweet acceptance....

Dreams of sweet acceptance....

Dreams of sweet acceptance and hungers long denied.

Petty things exalted and genius denied.

"When You're in Love" Lyrics

When you're in love, every day's a day in Spring -

Strangers will greet you, the weather's great,

Whatever the weather may bring.

A song of love is an easy song to sing -

The melody flows when your mind's on fire,

Your heart's a balloon on a string.

You don't need much in your pocket,

And, when you see clouds up above,

Those billows aren't laced with a lining of silver,

They're golden when you're in love!

[bridge]
When you get up in the morning, you're feeling ready to go.
You change overnight without warning; your friends meet a you they don't know.

The eyes of love see a world in ways all new:
Where wishes turn troubles to fortune's smile
And grey days to sunny and blue.

When the hand of love reaches out and favors you,
Don't even think, take a long, deep breath
And hang on, whatever you do!
You won't need much in your pocket,
And, when you clouds up above,
Those billows won't shine with a lining of silver;
They'll be golden when you're in love!
