I was never no I was never a stranger to you
how I had my faults and you had your own
that's true that's what I heard & that's what I knew
how I'd make you know how
I don't have any way out-
side of my house
& outside of my hell
would you step out with me into the yard
while everybody's havin a walk in the park
I heard what I heard // what I heard
I // I heard what I heard what I heard you go
I was never no I was never a stranger to you

Open My Windows

you don't have to stay by my side
while i'm trying to put my words back together again
you don't have to stay by my side
while i'm trying to put my brain back together again
open my windows and open my doors
i haven't been here but i've felt this before
where did this begin and where will it end
i don't know if i could still be your friend
open my windows and open my doors
i haven't been here but i've felt this before
where did this begin and where will it end
i don't know if i could still be your friend

Nobody Knows

if I was dying would you take me
take me out walkin out in the hall
now my head's spinning with the feeling
i can't explain but i've heard it all
i've heard it all i've heard it all
you had the bottle in your hand & I had the ache in my mouth
for what I could not understand when I was afraid ––
nobody knows nobody knows nobody could save me
now every morning I'm wonderin if I
could ever go & get out of my head
I've heard it all I've heard it all
you had the bottle in your hand & i had the ache in my mouth
for what i could not understand when i was afraid
nobody knows nobody knows ––
I was I was I was
a stranger to myself how
I'd never go
I'd never get out
you had the bottle in your hand & I had the ache in my mouth
for what I could not understand when I was afraid
nobody knows nobody knows nobody could save me

Anchor

I drove out into the snow
told nobody where'd go
standing there, I've been watching for my breath
counting every second to the edge
I hope you're there standing watching
over my head the sky was falling
you're my you're my you're my you're my anchor
you're my you're my you're my you're my anchor
when I die I'll be lonesome for my bed
every morning I'm waiting for the end
hope you're there standing watching
over my head the sky was falling
you're my you're my you're my you're my anchor
you're my you're my you're my you're my anchor

Dog Walker

I've been around & I have walked the dog
everybody's happy right where they are
I can't complain it's not my fault
I've been searching for the dog
I was a fool for what I had done
nobody wants to deal with
what I had in my arms
so I woke up & I was right where I am
everything looked different
it's not what I had planned
every day I'm hoping I could
just get on home
I've been lookin for the dog
I was a fool for what I had done
nobody wants to deal with
what I had in my arms
everybody knows that's where you go
that's where you go when you're tired
everybody knows that's where you go
that's where you go when you're tired

Difficult Body

When I was younger I had my worries
That I wouldn't make it alone
And when I was younger, I thought God would hate me
For doing everything wrong
But I don't have to know
Where I'm going tomorrow
That's alright
That's alright
That's alright
It's so hard to have a body
It's so hard to have a mind
That likes walking around
It's so hard to have a body
It's so hard to have a mind
That likes walking around
You look so pretty in the dawn
You look so pretty in the dawn
Let me stay the night
It's so hard to have a body
It's so hard to have a mind
That likes walking around
You look so pretty in the dawn
You look so pretty in the dawn
Let me stay the night
