After the War
After the war
You went away
I never left your side
I just lost my way
I'm feeling weak
My head is light
The Creole band
Plays through the night
We try to learn
We never change
You and me
We're still the same
You're always there
Through all my thoughts
The night is dark
Our time is short
I can't explain
Why I stayed so long
You're all I know
All I ever want
We try to learn
We never change
You and me
We're still the same
The colour drains
Rain falls from the sky
My leather coat
Keeps me dry
You start to speak
And then you pause
I have my price
And you have yours
We try to learn
We never change
You and me
We're still the same
I can't escape
From my past
The last is first
And the first is last
Under the waves
No sound at all
The world is big
We are so small
We try to learn
We never change
You and me
We're still the same

What is Left
Went to the city
Going Uptown
Gonna lay me my
burden down
Done some things
I still regret
This world may be folding
But it ain't ended yet
Feeling so lonesome
Can't even cry
Had it coming like an
Eye for an eye
Hand me my Martin
I'm stepping right back
Feeling funny my mind
The sky's turned to black
Leaving this city
Leaving this town
I got me a woman
Who's jailhouse bound
All that I've been through
Pleasures I've known
Nobody's business
But my own
I'll cry for you
You done me wrong
This life that we lead
It's all ended wrong
Hard to see clearly
So hard to connect
What exactly has gone
And what is still left
River Jordan
Cold and wide
When this night it has ended
You'll be there by my side
River Jordan
Chilly and cold
Freezes the body
Cuts deep through the soul
I've been a rake
And a rambling boy
Many a city
Did I enjoy
I've done some things
I still regret
This world may be folding
But it ain't ended yet
Hard to see clearly
So hard to connect
What exactly has gone
And what is still left

Siamese Twin
Two in one
She's my girl
Siamese twin
On the Tilt-A-Whirl
She's got two bodies
She's got two minds
She's joined in the middle
She's one of a kind
She's double the trouble
She gives double the lip
But in our twin bed
We are joined at the hip
Two in one
She's my girl
Siamese twin
On the Tilt-A-Whirl
Two in one
She's my girl
Siamese twin
On the Tilt-A-Whirl
When she leaves me
It breaks me in two
But she always returns
And I'm as good as new
One side's happy
One side's sad
One side is good
The other is completely mad
Siamese twin
She's my girl
Siamese twin
On the Tilt-A-Whirl
Siamese twin
She's my girl
Siamese twin
On the Tilt-A-Whirl
Siamese twin
On the Tilt-A-Whirl

Night Moves
There's no window in these walls
Your new man looks just like me
I don't recognize myself
I left you too easily
You wait behind a killer's smile
I never thought I'd be coming back
Your child is bundled in your arms
And you are everything I lack
I guess that people never change
I was scared it would come to this
You play the banjo in the rain
And it fills this emptiness

Renfield Follows the Swarm of Bees
Shadows cross the barren fields
Renfield follows the swarm of bees
His deadpan face stares up at the sky
The angry mob has got him on his knees
He is held in the hospital
He eats the insects and the birds
He writes in blood upon the walls
But only he can read his words
If I could just start from scratch
If only I could start again
I could have been someone
Instead of what I became
Instead of what I became
Seward watches through the observation trap
He notes the smile on Renfield's face
He records his thoughts on a phonograph
His patient is not a text book case
The Demeter moves across the waves
In the night plague takes all her crew
A big black dog leaps to the shore
Renfield knows his days of confinement are through
If I could just start from scratch
If only I could start again
I could have been someone
Instead of what I became
Instead of what I became
