She wore a cloak of feathers and rode a mare of purest white,
          A silver chalice in her hands, a look of sadness in her eyes.
          A thing of beauty to behold, but a sorrow to possess,
          She'll take all that you offer until there's nothing left.
          Nothing left.
          
          Face hidden in shadow beneath a hood of quills.
          The fittings of her raiment conceal all her ills.
          
          Beneath her cloak of feathers lies a body soft and fine,
          Eyes of hazel green, flowing hair as dark as wine.
          A thing of beauty to remember, but a sorrow to forget,
          She took all that I gave her 'til there was nothing left.
          Nothing left.
          
          Of owl and of raven, of peacock and dove,
          Of swan and of sparrow, woven with her love.
          
          Face hidden in shadow beneath a hood of quills.
          The fittings of her raiment conceal all her ills.
          
          The good life is
          What I need
          Too many people
          Stepping over me
          The only thing that's
          Been on my mind
          Is the one thing I need before I die
          
          [Chorus:]
          All I want is a little of
          The good life
          All I need is to have
          A good time
          The good life
          
          I don't really know
          Who I am
          It's time for me
          To take a stand
          I need a change
          And I need it fast
          I know that any day
          Could be the last
          
          [Chorus x2]
          
          Hold on, hold on
          I always wanted it this way
          I never wanted it this way
          Hold on, hold on
          I always wanted it this way
          We didn't ask for it this way
          I always wanted this way
          I see the world through bloodshot eyes
          Streets filled with blood from distant lies.
          The dogs of war never compromise,
          No real time for rearranging.
          
          "Help me Jesus, help me clean my wounds"
          He said he cannot heal that kind.
          Bleeding soul becomes a bitter mind.
          He said it happens every time (Knock it down)
          And that's how the story goes (Knock it down)
          In the land of a thousand no's (Knock it down)
          I'm all over you in time my mind is changing.
          Knock it down

And I think it's gonna be a long long time
          Till touch down brings me round again to find
          I'm not the man they think I am at home
          Oh no, no, no, I'm a rocket man
          Rocket man burning out his fuse up here alone
          
          And I think it's gonna be a long long time
          Till touch down brings me round again to find
          I'm not the man they think I am at home
          Oh no, no, no, I'm a rocket man
          Rocket man burning out his fuse up here alone
          
          Turn away,
          If you could get me a drink 
          Of water 'cause my lips are chapped and faded 
          Call my aunt Marie
          Help her gather all my things
          And bury me in all my favorite colors, 
          My sisters and my brothers, still, 
          I will not kiss you, 
          'Cause the hardest part of this is leaving you. 
          
          You can't quit until you try
          You can't live until you die
          You can't learn to tell the truth
          Until you learn to lie
          
          You can't breathe until you choke
          You gotta laugh when you're the joke
          There's nothing like a funeral to make you feel alive
          
          Just open your eyes
          Just open your eyes
          And see that life is beautiful.
          Will you swear on your life,
          That no one will cry at my funeral?
          
          I know some things that you don't
          I've done things that you won't
          There's nothing like a trail of blood to find your way back home
          
          I was waiting for my hearse
          What came next was so much worse
          It took a funeral to make me feel alive
          
          Here's to being human
          All the pain and suffering
          There's beauty in the bleeding
          At least you feel something
          
          I wish I knew what it was like
          To care enough to carry on
          I wish I knew what it was like
          To find a place where I belong, but
          
          I am machine
          I never sleep
          I keep my eyes wide open
          I am machine
          A part of me
          Wishes I could just feel something
          I am machine
          I never sleep
          Until I fix what's broken
          I am machine
          A part of me
          Wishes I could just feel something
