The Joshua Tree

WHERE THE STREETS HAVE NO NAME

I want to runI want to hideI want to tear down the wallsThat hold me insideI want to reach outAnd touch the flameWhere the streets have no name

I want to feel sunlight on my faceI see the dust cloud disappearWithout a traceI want to take shelter from the poison rainWhere the streets have no name

Where the streets have no nameWe're still buildingThen burning down loveBurning down loveAnd when I go thereI go there with youIt's all I can do

The city's afloodAnd our love turns to rustWe're beaten and blown by the windTrampled in dustI'll show you a placeHigh on a desert plainWhere the streets have no name

Where the streets have no nameWe're still buildingThen burning down loveBurning down loveAnd when I go thereI go there with youIt's all I can doOur love turns to rustWe're beaten and blown by the windBlown by the windOh, and I see loveSee our love turn to rustWe're beaten and blown by the windBlown by the windOh, when I go thereI go there with youIt's all I can do

I STILL HAVEN'T FOUND WHAT I'M LOOKING FOR

I have climbed highest mountainsI have run through the fieldsOnly to be with youI have runI have crawledI have scaled these city wallsThese city wallsOnly to be with you

But I still haven't found what I'm looking for

I have kissed honey lipsFelt the healing in her fingertipsIt burned like a fireThis burning desire

I have spoke with the tongue of angelsI have held the hand of a devilIt was warm in the nightI was cold as a stone

But I still haven't found what I'm looking for

I believe in the Kingdom ComeThen all the colors will bleed into oneBleed into oneBut yes I'm still running

You broke the bondsAnd you loosed the chainsCarried the crossOf my shameOh my shameYou know I believe it

But I still haven't found what I'm looking for

WITH OR WITHOUT YOU

See the stone set in your eyesSee the thorn twist in your sideI wait for you

Sleight of hand and twist of fateOn a bed of nails you make me waitAnd I wait without you

With or without you

Through the storm we reach the shoreYou give it all but I want moreAnd I'm waiting for you

With or without youI can't liveWith or without you

And you give yourself away

My hands are tiedMy body bruised, you've got me withNothing to win andNothing left to lose

And you give yourself away

With or without youI can't liveWith or without you

BULLET THE BLUE SKY

In the howlin' windComes a stingin' rainSee it drivin' nailsInto the souls on the tree of pain.

From the fireflyA red orange glowSee the face of fearRunnin' scared in the valley below.

Bullet the blue sky

In the locust windComes a rattle and hum.Jacob wrestled the angelAnd the angel was overcome.

You plant a demon seedYou raise a flower of fire.We see them burnin' crossesSee the flames, higher and higher.

Bullet the blue sky

Suit and tie comes up to meHis face red like a rose on a thorn bushLike all the colours of a royal flushAnd he's peelin' off those dollar bills(Slappin' 'em down)One hundred, two hundred.

And I can see those fighter planesAcross the tin huts as children sleepThrough the alleys of a quiet city street.Up the staircase to the first floorWe turn the key and slowly unlock the doorAs a man breathes into his saxophoneAnd through the walls you hear the city groan.Outside, is AmericaOutside, is AmericaAmerica.

See across the fieldSee the sky ripped openSee the rain comin' through the gapin' woundHowlin' the women and childrenWho run into the armsOf America

RUNNING TO STAND STILL

And so she woke upWoke up from where she was lyin' still.Said I gotta do somethingAbout where we're goin'.

Step on a fast trainStep out of the driving rain, maybeRun from the darkness in the night.Singing ah, ah la la la de day

Sweet the sin, bitter the taste in my mouth.I see seven towers, but I only see one way out.You gotta cry without weeping, talk without speakingScream without raising your voice.You know I took the poison, from the poison streamThen I floated out of here, singingAh la la la de day

She walks through the streetsWith her eyes painted redUnder black belly of cloud in the rain.In through a doorwayShe brings me white golden pearlsStolen from the sea.

She is ragin'And the storm blows up in her eyes.She will suffer the needle chillShe's running to stand still.

RED HILL MINING TOWN

From father to sonThe blood runs thinOoh, see the faces frozen (still)Against the wind.

The seam is splitThe coal-face crackedThe lines are longThere's no going back.

Through hands of steelAnd heart of stoneOur labour dayHas come and gone.

They leave me holdin' onIn Red Hill Town.See the lights go down on

Hangin' onYou're all that's left to hold on to.I'm still waitingI'm hangin' onYou're all that's left to hold on to.

The glass is cutThe bottle run dry.Our love runs coldIn the caverns of the night.

We're wounded by fearInjured in doubt.I can lose myselfYou I can't live without.

Yeah, you keep me holdin' onIn Red Hill Town.See the lights go down on

Hangin' onYou're all that's left to hold on to.I'm still waitingI'm hangin' onYou're all that's left to hold on to

We scorch the earthSet fire to the skyAnd we stooped so lowTo reach so high.

A link is lostThe chain undone.We wait all dayFor night to comeAnd it comes like a hunter (child).

I'm hangin' onYou're all that's left to hold on to.I'm still waitingI'm hangin' onYou're all that's left to hold on to.

We see love, slowly stripped awayOur love has seen its better day.Hangin' onLights go down on Red HillThe lights go down on Red Hill.The lights go down on Red Hill Town

IN GOD'S COUNTRY

Desert sky, dream beneath the desert skyThe rivers run but soon run dryWe need new dreams tonightDesert rose, dreamed I saw a desert roseDress torn in ribbons and bowsLike a siren she calls (to me)

Sleep comes like a drug in God's countrySad eyes, crooked crosses, in God's country

Set me alight, we'll punch a hole right through the nightEvery day the dreamers die to see what's on the other sideShe is liberty, and she comes to rescue meHope, faith, her vanityThe greatest gift is gold

Sleep comes like a drug in God's countrySad eyes, crooked crosses, in God's country

Naked flame, she stands with a naked flameI stand with the sons of CainBurned by the fire of love

TRIP THROUGH YOUR WIRES

In the distance, she saw me comin' roundI was callin' out, I was callin' out.Still shakin', still in painYou put me back together again.I was cold and you clothed me, honeyI was down, and you lifted me, honey.

Angel, angel or devil?I was thirstyAnd you wet my lips.You, I'm waiting for youYou, you set my desireI trip through your wires.

I was broken, bent out of shapeI was naked in the clothes you made.Lips were dry, throat like rustYou gave me shelter from the heat and the dust.No more water in the wellNo more water, water.

Angel, angel or devil?I was thirstyAnd you wet my lips.You, I'm waiting for youYou, you set my desireI trip through your wires.

Oh I need, oh I needOh I need, oh I need it.Oh I need, oh I needAll I need, yeah, yeah!

Thunder, thunder on the mountainThere's a raincloudIn the desert sky.In the distanceShe saw me comin' roundI was callin' out

ONE TREE HILL

We turn away to face the cold, enduring chillAs the day begs the night for mercy loveThe sun so bright it leaves no shadowsOnly scarsCarved into stoneOn the face of earthThe moon is up and over One Tree HillWe see the sun go down in your eyes

You run like a river, on like a seaYou run like a river runs to the sea

And in the world a heart of darknessA fire zoneWhere poets speak their heartThen bleed for itJara sang - his song a weaponIn the hands of onethough his blood still criesFrom the ground

It runs like a river runs to the seaIt runs like a river to the sea

I don't believe in painted rosesOr bleeding heartsWhile bullets rape the night of the mercifulI'll see you againWhen the stars fall from the skyAnd the moon has turned redOver One Tree Hill

We run like a riverRuns to the seaWe run like a river to the seaAnd when it's rainingRaining hardThat's when the rain willBreak the heart

Raining...raining in your heartRaining into your heartRaining...raining into your heartRaining, raining...rainingRaining into your heartRaining...Raining your heart into the sea

Oh great oceanOh great seaRun to the oceanRun to the sea

EXIT

You know he got the cureBut then he went astrayHe used to stay awakeTo drive the dreams he had away.He wanted to believeIn the hands of love.

His head it felt heavyAs he came across the landA dog started cryin'Like a broken-hearted manAt the howling windAt the howling wind.

He went deeper into blackDeeper into white.He could see the stars shineLike nails in the night.

He felt the healingHealing, healing, healing hands of loveLike the stars shiny, shiny from above.

A hand in the pocketFingering the steelThe pistol weighed heavyAnd his heart he could feel was beatingBeating, beating, beating,Oh my love, oh my loveOh my love, oh my love.

So hands that buildCan also pull downThe hands of love.

MOTHERS OF THE DISAPPEARED

Midnight, our sons and daughtersWere cut down and taken from us.Hear their heartbeatWe hear their heartbeat.

In the wind we hear their laughterIn the rain we see their tears.Hear their heartbeat, we hear their heartbeat.

Night hangs like a prisonerStretched over black and blue.Hear their heartbeatsWe hear their heartbeats.

In the trees our sons stand nakedThrough the walls our daughter crySee their tears in the rainfall.
