Collective Soul Ok, here are the lyrics for their self-titled CD. I personally love this CD, it is one of the more relaxing ones in my collection. |

Simple
Tangle up your twisted tongue, it's simple Mesmerize your everyday, it's simple Hey, hey, can't you see? Love is all that you should need Can't you see? Ease your troubled mind Let love seek and let love find, it's simple Ease your weary soul Let love lead and let love flow, it's simple Pry into combative times, it's simple Forfeit all lush concerns, it's simple Hey, hey, don't you care? Love is all that you should share Don't you care? Cleansing out your tarnished heart, it's simple Learning from each other can be simple Hey, hey, don't we know? Love is all that we should show Don't we know? Untitled Who have I left to please? Take what you've yet to seize No more questioning Cause love is what love should be Unveil to me all that you want me to do But why should I stop bearing allegiance to you? I don't believe in the sorcerers or the preachers I just believe in you And I don't believe in the scholars or the wise men I just believe in you What have I left to prove? I speak all the words you choose Confine me in walls of truth Cause love does what love should do No more sentence, all of my pain has been freed Why should this end when your mercy's all I need? See, I don't believe in the sorcerers or the preachers I just believe in you. And I dont believe in the scholars or the wise men I just believe in you Yeah, you, you, you The World I Know Has our conscience shown? Has the sweet breeze blown? Has all kindness gone? Hope still lingers on I drink myself of newfound pity Sitting alone in New York City And I don't know why Are we listening To hymns of offering? Have we eyes to see That love is gathering? All the words that I've been reading Have now started the act of bleeding Into one, into one So I walk up on high, and I step to the edge To see the world below And I laugh at myself, as the tears roll down, Cause it's the world I know, It's the world I know Smashing Young Man Beggar's description Of what I've been missing Exploit your position Don't think I didn't listen Hey, I hope you're feeling a little better now Success is so tragic Pain is your gadget Your tongue's just lashing, Just bitching by habit Hey, I hope you're feeling a little purer now Hey, I hope you're feeling securer now Help me I plea, I don't understand Your ways and your means, you smashing young man Help me to see the good you have planned You're wearing thin, you smashing young man You preach synthetic-like Peace is an oversight It's nothing to ignite Your self-lit spotlight Hey, I hope you're feeling a little special now Hey, I want to tell you, I think you're special now I don't recall asking for guidance I don't recall wanting to I don't recall bowing before you But I'm so impressed with the kindness in your attitude December Why drink the water from my hand? Contagious as you think I am Just tilt my sun towards your domain. Your cup runneth over again Don't scream about, don't think aloud Turn your head now baby just spit me out Don'y worry about, don't speak of doubt Turn your head now baby just spit me out Why follow me to higher ground? Lost as you swear I am Don't throw away your basic needs Ambiance and vanity December promise you gave unto me December whispers of treachery December clouds are now covering me December songs no longer I sing Where the River Flows Give me a moment Got to get this weight up off my chest Don't feed me sorrow Pain is a poison I digest Find yourself another soul to hold You think, you thought, I know Off upon my journey I must go To where the river flows I'll give you answers To the questions you have yet to ask Silence is beauty Words they only complicate the task Make no more wishes All of my patience has been spent Gods of the season Lead me to my next incident |

Gel
Color me any color Speak to me in tongues and share Tell me how you'd love to hate me Tell me how you'd love to care I just want to shake us up Let's mingle And make it well Come together now Yeah let's gel Clothe me in any fashion Glitter to so mundane Tell me how you'd love to change me Tell me I can stay the same I just want to shake us up Let's mingle And make it well Come together now Yeah let's gel Well let's bungle And live to tell How we came together Yeah how we gelled. She Gathers Rain Today she dresses For the change she faces now And the storm thats raging A safe haven she has found She doesn't care what the prophets say anymore For the love she had, she has no more So she gathers rain, she gathers rain To rinse away all the guilt and pain She gathers rain, she gathers rain To wash and cleanse and make her whole again Her imagination Has started stretching wide And her new convictions No longer will she hide She's not branded when the prophets speak words of fire The same love she gives, she requires So she gathers rain, she gathers rain To rinse away all her guilt and pain She gathers rain, she gathers rain To wash and cleanse and make her whole again When the Water Falls She's a picture perfect child of innocence Searching out in childlike ways for knowledge Now she's questioning her mother Yeah she's questionging her father Yeah she's looking for the answers To the problem that confronts her Do you know where the sun goes when the water falls? Do you know where the rain goes when the water falls? Though I think her subjects could run far and wide She has centered on the topic of the skies Now she's questioning her mother Yeah she's questioning her father Yeah she's looking for the answers To the problem that confronts her Collection of Goods Resonate tones of saving grace Separate from the gods of hate Alleviate all our doubting ways Congregate to more loving days A collection of peace where we could live A collection of hope for us to give A collection of words that mean we care A collection of love for us to share Recognize all equality Vocalize solidarity Exercise your tranquility Glamourize all of love's needs Bleed I think her gun's unloaded now I guess tomorrow will be after all? Who made me judge and jury here? It seems I'm bearing witness to her fall I don't know why she cries to me (She keeps her pain as company) Cause its only time before we all must bleed Mirrors of her memory Reflect nothing with each word she says Her views have got me spinning round I think she's burning altars in her head Reunion Change will come Change is here Love fades out Then love appears Now my water's turned to wine And these thoughts I have I now can claim as mine I'm going home Change has been Change will be Time will tell Then time will ease Now my curtain has been drawn And my heart will go Where my heart does belong I'm going home |
