53 53 53


Take your words down
Bite your tongue and frown
53 more times




A Story With No Words


Continue your story
A story with no words
The rain was falling all day
But now's your turn

We know you hate it
We hate it too




All Aboard


Well time it goes by
While young eyes never lie
Are you ready for this life
You'll never know until you try

Looking up at the sky
All of those blues fill your eyes
And you wonder if it's right
To give it a go this time

'Cause your life is changing
And past times are fading
Are you ready for living
Well climb aboard, all aboard

Why, oh why, can't you see
This heart inside of me
Please listen carefully
To its lonely murmured beat




Alone Since '83


Well go on and think what you want
'Cause this may or may not be another love song
And how many times have you fallen in love
'Cause so far I can't even count to one

'Cause I've been alone since '83
Now don't go feeling sorry for me
'Cause I have done this to myself
And I hope that I don't go to hell

Well come on and listen to me
'Cause these eyes and ears have learned a few things
Now I would love to fall in love
But I'm stronger now than I ever was

'Cause I've been alone since '83
Now don't go feeling sorry for me
'Cause I have done this to myself
And I hope that I don't go to hell




Are You Ever Beautiful


Well you are so hard to understand
But I try my best
You brush me off like a little kid
Who can't pretend 'cause he's so wasted

You break, you take, you make, but then you fall
Was it ever wonderful
Are you ever beautiful

Well you fail to realize
What this pair of eyes can do for you
They'll show you truth without any proof
And who are you to disagree




As Time Passes Us By


It tears you up inside
The way I choose to live this life
As time passes us by
Will you realize
You don't know what it's like




Back In Line


If you don't notice me I'll survive
And put myself back in line
Just take your time
I have taken mine before
Cause you don't know what I need
So don't tell me




Black Eyed Blue Baby


Black eyed blue baby with no clothes
Your face is in a bathtub
And your world is slipping away

Papa was watching the tv
While mama, she's starting to worry
That her baby's world is slipping away

Black eyed blue baby's getting heavy
Water's sinking to her belly
And she's crazy
'Cause her world is slipping away

Sister's in another country
While brother, he's half full of misery
'Cause baby's world is slipping away

Black eyed blue baby scared her family
Red lights they came a flashing
And he came in
'Cause her world was slipping
But now she is ok




Can You Wake Now


Can you wake now




Comments Were Never Meant By Feelings Often Hid


I'm sorry for what was said
And treating you like I did
The comments were never meant
By feelings often hid

Would you take me in

I'm leaving here once again
Cause livin' has never been
Sadder in the end
When dreamin' is often dead

Would you take me in




Coming Clean


My brother what do you mean
The sisters they never see
That trouble is getting to me
Trouble gets the best of me

Oh brother brother before you leave
Tell mother I'm coming clean
But trouble still gets to me
Trouble gets the best of me

It gets the best of me
But I'm coming clean




Do You Know Me


When I wake up I don't wonder where I am
Don't you feel the same way as I do today

Do you know me

As I go on I don't wonder who I am
Don't you feel the same way as I do today

Do you know me




Do You See


Hey baby
Do you see
Everything

Hey baby
Can you see
Is it meant to be




Don't Know Why


You're running after yourself again
But I don't know why
I'd follow if you promise me you promise
But you don't and I don't know why

No you don't
No you don't
No you don't know
And I don't know why




Don't Tell Me What You Want Me To Be


Don't tell me
What you want me to be

Please give me a pen and some paper
I'll write you a letter
About who listens to me

Just give me a minute or later
I'll tell you what matters
About who listens to me

So give me a reason or better
I'll tell you I'll leave you this letter
About who listens to me

Don't tell me
What you want me to be




Every Little Thing


You care that I don't care
You know I know but they don't
You're every little thing

They say what they say
To help me with what I need
You're every little thing




Every Night You Disappear


Listen up and be aware
Everyone knows pain and fear
So take yourself away from here
Every night you disappear
Don't give up year to year
One day your love will near




Everybody Likes You More Than Me


Now everybody's there
'Cause everybody cares just a little bit
Everybody likes you more than me

Nobody is here
So nobody even cares
Everybody likes you more than me




Everyone Is The Same


In your eyes we're the same
But I judge you you claim
You are wrong when you say
That you are right

Everyone is the same
But we're not the same




For One Night


Darling don't you know it's time
To let that rising sun hit your eyes
No you better not lose your mind
Or your father might take your life

Kiss that girl before you die
The city's had its fun for one night
Honey go ahead and shut those eyes
For your mother might end your life




Goodbye


Birds stop singing
When you start pouring
Those tears from your eyes
The world gets sad when
You keep on sniffing
The blues from the sky

Are we all dead when
We think we are living
Praying not to die
The sun still shines when
People keep lying
To faces passing by

We all sleep when
We're tired from working
Those nine to fives
The wind it blows and
Stops us from taking
The time to say hi
Goodbye




Hear Me Out


How can I keep going on
Living life this way
I'm doing everything wrong
I'm following the book
Why can't you hear me
I'm telling you out loud

How could I keep going on
Living life your way
I'm doing everything wrong
I'm following your book
Why can't you hear me
I'm telling you out loud

So please just listen
I know that I'm quiet
But when I've got something to say
No one will listen
So what's the point

Why can't you hear me
I'm telling you out loud
Why can't you hear me
I'm telling you out loud
Why can't you hear me
I'm screaming it out loud
And Why can't you hear me
I'm saying it out loud




How Can You Say That You're Dead


How can you say that you're dead
How can she say that you're dead
How can he say that you're dead
How can I say that you're dead
How can we say that you're dead




I Am Over


I'd be alright
With never seeing your face again
Speak your last words
To me your once friend

I am done with you
I am over you

You only like what you know
And you don't know me anymore at all
I'm growing tired of this

I am done with you
I am over you




I Am What I Am


I am what I am
And I do what I can
For you

I am what I am
Being an honest man
For you




I Can't Stand


I drink it red
That's what I told her
When it was snowing
She listened once
But then she forgot
We walked right in
Without even knowing
That we were so late

How could I predict this would happen
It just seemed so perfect

Things were going
They were going well
I had told her that I wasn't in love
Yet she was upset
I was not upset
I can't stand to be around anymore

How could I predict this would happen
It just seemed so perfect

Is that alright
Make it alright
Is that ok with you




I Don't Understand


I know what I want
You always try to interrupt
I don't understand

I care every time
What you say is on my mind
I don't understand




If I'm Your Last


I know you, but you don't know my name
Therefore you won't go the same way

If you don't see a face again
Won't it be great if I'm your last




I'm Hiding From Today


I don't know today
What's in store for me
And you don't even (seem) care
At all when I'm there (near)

You don't see me coming
You don't see me hiding




It Is What It Is


It is what it is
Why don't you know
I've waited here all alone for you
Why don't you know




It's Ok To Feel Sorry


If you're feeling sorry
For someone poor like me
It's ok to feel sorry
If you really mean
To help me like you do

If you're feeling sorry
For someone like yourself
It's ok to feel sorry
I'll try to help you out
Like you did for me




It's Time To Go Home


Won't you tell what you want to know
I'll you what you need to know
I'll tell you, but you won't (hear me)

Won't tell you when it's time to go
I'll tell you that it's time to go home
I'll tell you, but you won't (hear me)




Kind Eyes (Don't Be A Stranger)


Your kind eyes were so bright
The first time they caught mine
When I'm wrong
You're right
But tonight
It's not fine

Your kind eyes were so bright
The next time they met mine
When I'm wrong
You're right
But tonight
It's not fine

'Cause you are taken
And your words are spoken for
And you say "don't be a stranger"
But a stranger is all I've been

Your kind eyes were so bright
The last time they crossed mine
When I'm wrong
You're right
But tonight
You're not mine




Looks Like You're Moving On, I Should Do The Same


You know what you need
You're running
You've found it I see
It's something
And you're moving on
Am I moving on

I trust what I see
I'm running
I take what I please
It's something
Am I moving on
When you're moving on




Make Up Your Mind


When you try to close your eyes
Mine close instead
And every time you question why
Again and again

So make up your mind tonight
If you can
'Cause I would like to go ahead




More Like You


I'm drinking while you're sleeping
At four in the morning
And all I can do is think of you

It's raining, no it's pouring
You're dreaming, I'm bored and
All I can do is think of you




More Than Yesterday


A lover has passed away
A newborn will take its place
While trouble is heading your way
More than yesterday

Your best friend think he's safe
Drinking and driving away
Now trouble will find its place
More than yesterday




Near


You may know where it is
But I do my best to keep it hid
No one will ever get near it




Need You Now


I might know what it is that I need
As for you, you're blinded and cannot see
I just want to show you around
I don't want to let you down

Can't you see that I'm here now
Why can't you see
I need you now




Never Gonna Change


You say you're leaving today
But the weather's calling for rain
Oh I wish you would stay
No you're never gonna change

Now you're feeling afraid
Pressure's taking over me
How I wish you would stay
Things will never be the same

No you're never gonna change
You will never be the same




No You Won't


If you don't see me
You won't miss me
No you won't

If you don't hear me
You won't trust me
No

If you don't love me
You won't need me
No you won't




Nobody's Listening


You're trying
But nobody's listening
Aren't they even willing
You're trying




Nothing Is For Real


When nothing is for real
How does one feel pain
In the name of love
I am done




Now Or Never


If you find me awaken from sleep
I will go there if you show me
Take me backwards
Now or never

I will follow if you let me
Just to see her is worth the journey
Take me backwards
Now or never




Oh How I Do Wonder What You Think


I do wonder what you think
I wonder, I wonder, I wonder




One Day You'll Fall Deep Down


They tear me down to build you up
What happens now ain't good enough
You will fall one day deep down

I'll pick you up if you listen now
I'm good enough to sit you down
You will fall one day deep down




Our Love


If you think your coming
Just let me know
'Cause if you're really coming
This heart will grow

And everyone they must know
That our love
It is so real

If you think you're wanting
Something special from me
Just know that you're my darling
I'll give you everything

And everyone they should know
That our love
It is so real




Out Of Control


We don't know what we're sold
It is so out of control
We are told when to go
It is so out of control




Please Be Something Else


Have you ever wondered what is next
After you're dead
Do you start over
Or is it over

Have you ever thought what is next
When you're dead
There must something
'Cause one life is nothing
Please be something else




Remember


How do you grow
When you have no home
Time is money
And you're broke
With nothing else to do

You're falling down
While turning around
They pick you up again
'Cause they're your friends

And tell my sister I'm sorry
That she has yet to marry
Losing friend is scary
When there's nothing left to do

You're falling down
While turning around
They pick you up again
'Cause they're your friends

You never leave when you should
Remember when things were good
The sun will shine on the other side
But not this time

How do you grow
When you have no home




Searching For Nothing


Can you tell me something
I'm searching for nothing

Can you just say something
I'm searching for nothing




She Don't Know Anyone Anymore


She don't know anyone anymore
And she won't go anywhere but her home




She Speaks In Her Sleep


She leaves when she needs
To be free from everything
Not everyone will get what they want

She speaks in her sleep
She's telling me what she dreams
Not everyone will get what they want

She breathes when she thinks
And tries to believe in anything
Not everyone will get what they want




Slow Yourself Down Once More


Take all you need
Be it one, two, or three, and an even four
No, I don't mind
I said I don't mind anymore

Take what you need
These eyes have failed to see your love before
No, I don't mind anymore
Just slow down once more
Slow yourself down once more




Smiles Often Fade Away


I'm tired from this wasted day
And smiles often fade away
I don't see what you want from me
So please ask me again
I do my best so take my hand
I do my best for you

I do my best for you




Stay The Same


Would you run away
If there's nothing left to take
Would you make mistakes
If there's nothing left to break
Will you stay the same

Would you risk it all
If you knew you would fall
Would you want it all
If you could have it all
Will you stay the same




Take A Step


Take a step back
Try to remember
Tell yourself that
It's not over
And You Run

Take a step when
It's not over
Tell your friends that
That you love her
And you run home




Take Me Somewhere New


Take me somewhere new with you




Take Your Time


So take your time with me




The Sky Was Falling


If you're lonely
Then write a story about your family
When you were growing up

The sky was falling without you knowing
Your friends were stealing when you were looking up




The Things We Used To Do


There's no one around here
I want to go swimming
Won't you stick around
My company's shrinking
Without even knowing
Won't you stick around
Everyone's got something going on
But me
Everyone's got something going on
But me
We could do all the things that we used to do
Nobody is around here
Nobody is around here
Nobody is around here, but me
We could do all the things that we used to do
We could do all the things we used to do




The Walls Fell For You


I have told you
I'm not doing well
The walls around here
They've already fell for you

I haven't asked you
For anything
This world seems to warn you
Of many things
Except me




This Forth Of July


Fireworks light up your sky
When I'm alone this forth of July
Would you notice when I am gone
Are you hearing this lonely song

I would've called if you knew
Of the feelings I long for you
But you don't and never will
So I give up in the end
Again
Again and again
In the end




Time To Waste


I don't mind
Whether or not you stay
For it's our time
Our precious time to waste
Away

If you're fine
With running the longer race
It's your life
Live it whatever way
Today




Today Has Gone


Yesterdays are tomorrows
While today has gone
Am I wrong for believing
In hope or love




Tomorrow Is Today


Tomorrow is today
'Cause everyday is the same
For you and me

And will it be ok
If everyday seems the same
For you and me

Could you be the one
To change me
Could you be the one
To save me




We Wish We Knew


You know that you know
Or so we're told
That's how life goes this time
We wish we knew
And so so do you
'Cause life it flies
Until we die




What Are You Waiting For


You were up north and thinking
Taking it all in
While your friends they were drinking
Wishing it would never end
What are you fighting for

Now you're back home reliving
The same day over again
When you claim you are breathing
But searching for an end
What are you waiting for




What Are Your Thought On Us


What are your thoughts on us




What I Know


Tell me what you want to hear
I'll do my best to make it clear
Oh no
Tell me you want to see
I'll do my best to make you believe
Oh no
You're fighting to ruin what I know
We're fighing to ruin all I know

Tell me you want to be
Is it all you hoped and dreamed
Oh no
Tell me you want from me
Is it always meant to be
Oh no
We're fighting to ruin what I know
You're fighting to ruin all I know




When You're Looking At Me


If I leave
Won't you let me
Be anything
That I may dream
What do you see
Be honest with me
What do you see
When you're looking at me

If I go
Would you even know
Or believe
In the things that I dream
What do you see
Be honest with me
What don't you see
When you're looking at me




Where Will I End Up


I would follow in your footsteps if I could
But where will I end up
Where would I end up
Would you be able to take me home
Would you be able to find my home

I would follow in your footsteps if I could
But where would I end up
Where will I end up




Why Can't You Just Go


April is too slow for you
And they know you were told the truth
Why can't you just go




Will You Come Back In The Morning


Will you come back in the morning
Tell yourself there's more to living
'Cause you don't know my name

When you come back in the morning
Ask yourself what is living
'Cause you don't know my name




Would That Be Alright


Shut your eyes darling
Say goodnight one more time
The days go by
You live your life
Until die
Would that be alright

Watch your eyes darling
Here's a lie
You'll be fine
Do what you like
Be home on time
For your surprise
Would that be alright




You Are Me


I had a few
Before I had a few more
You weren't happy
That's ok with me
'Cause I'm on my own
And when you think you know
You really don't

On my way in
I was tired
'Cause I was up all night
Thinking to myself
That when you think you have won
You really haven't

That's Ok with me
Just don't do it to me
It will make you strong
Stronger than before
I have hope in you
Yes, I always do
'Cause you are me

I had a few
Before I had a few more
You weren't happy with me
'Cause I let you down




You Are So Far Away From Me, Oh My!


You are
So far
Away from
Me, oh my!




You Don't Know Me At All


You don't know me at all




You Go You Leave


On my way down to Cincy
I'm reminded of how I miss Annalee
And what's my possibility of running
Into someone I've seen before
'Cause you go, you leave

On my way home from Cincy
I hesitated to remember
And are you even listening to me
'Cause it feels like you were never there
'Cause you go, you leave




You Tell Me


You tell me your secrets
As you disappear
Don't worry my darling
You have nothing to fear
But then you break
Tears fall down your face
You tell me you're sorry
You're so sorry now

You tell me your life's story
In a two minute span
As you spoke your last words
And smoked that cigarette
Then you shake
Tears still fall down your face
You tell me you're sorry
You're so sorry now




You Told Me So


When will you show
What I don't know
One day you'll grow
You told me so




You Try, But Fail


You leave me alone
You try to find home
You try and fail
Now you're alone

You leave me alone
You try to find home
You try, but fail
You're now alone




You'll Be Fine


Take your mind off of him
Rest your eyes a little bit
You'll be fine
At the end of it
You'll be fine

It's not like you to give it up
It's not like you to give him up
It's not like you to give me up
It's not like you

Leave on time or you'll regret
Every line you've ever read
You'll be fine
At the end of it
You'll be fine




You're Never Around Blues


I'm always wasting (my) time sitting around
For you I'm waiting
You're never coming around
