These are terrible times
but I'm fine
i feel fine
i don't mind
i keep my footsteps in time
to the rhyme
to the rhyme
I've been on every scene
I could find
i feel fine
it's alright
took me a long time to see
but I'm fine
I feel fine
I don't mind
I'm a company man
And now you gotta walk
'cause you trip when you run
You cause a big scene 'cause she's doing you wrong
done you wrong
you got a raw deal and it opened your eyes
to the light
and now you gotta walk 'cause you trip when you run
when you run
raise your hands to the sky
keep 'em bound with a lie
look around you and sigh
I keep my eyes on the sky
Hey, hey momma I tried
i don't mid
i feel fine
i've done right
there's a lot to be seen
where I've been
I have lived
i have sinned
but I'm a company man
And now you gotta walk
'cause you trip when you run
You cause a big scene 'cause she's doing you wrong
done you wrong
you got a raw deal and it opened your eyes
to the light
and now you gotta walk 'cause you trip when you run
when you run
raise your hands to the sky
keep 'em bound with a lie
look around you and sigh
I keep my eyes on the sky

Voice In The Dark

I drew a line in the sand
hard as it is i must stand
she spoke to me
words that i don't believe
and i drew a line in the sand
you break my heart when you lie
something inside ain't right
she spoke to me words i don't believe
and you break my heart when you lie
'cause i don't have time
to waste on a lie
oh I'm gonna be alright
yeah I'm gonna be alright
I heard a voice in the dark
a flame inside lit by a spark
she spoke to me
words that i don't believe
and i heard a voice a voice in the dark
'cause i don't have time
to waste on a lie
oh I'm gonna be alright
yeah I'm gonna be alright

Better days are coming
Those bitter days are gone
Out of the blue comes the sunlight
Warms my heart everytime
Better days are coming
Those bitter days are gone
Do you believe in everything you see
Baby know your eyes they can deceive [x2]
I can show you what you mean to me
I knew at the start things were changing
I knew at the start things were good
I pine for the light that shines in you
I long for the love we had
Do you believe in everything you see
Baby know your eyes they can deceive
[x2]
I can show you what you mean to me

We Can't Wait

This is life
learning how to be quiet
this is life
when you wanna scream
and to lie
when it's hard to be honest
take the fall
drown it all with alcohol
open up
when it's time to be quiet
screw it up
when everything's going right
and you heard it all before
i can't seem to get started
you lay down on the floor
the stars pass all around you
we can't wait to be seen x4
such is life
waiting on a dream
running hard
to live for the extremes
coming down
falling on your face and getting up
just to be a waste of space
and you heard it all before
i can't seem to get started
you lay down on the floor
the stars pass all around you
i can't wait to be seen
we can't wait to be seen x2
we can't wait to be seen
i can't wait to be seen x 2

I was terrified
I can't rely
On the basic facts
A heart attack
And then you spoke out loud
Saying it's alright now
I'm the rising sun
A voice in the morning
Calling out again
It's alright now
From here to forever
Will you hold me tight
on and on and on
I can't eat at all
Staring at the wall
It's gone from blue to green to black again
And then you spoke out loud
Saying it's alright now
I'm the rising sun
A voice in the morning
Calling out again
It's alright now
From here to forever
Will you hold me tight
on and on and on
The color of the sequences
The sunlight from the evening sky
It shines through that which otherwise
Obscures the words that I can't find

Lungs

it was late in the evening
i was trying to get some rest
i was thinking how my life's been one big test
i was feeling like a stranger
in some sort of hitchcock film
unsure if i should run or just give in
and now i look back
where was i going all that time
and have i changed
or is this the same old trap?
the same old trap
my God I love you so
and I'm not ever letting go
and i'll profess my love
til my lungs collapse x2
it was sunday morning
i was busy getting dressed
feeling all washed up in my sunday best
i was feeling like a stranger
in some scene out of the west
cock my pistol
count to ten and shoot you dead
and now i look back
did i get off the track?
did i get that last i love you
off my chest?
off my chest?
my God I love you so
and I'm not ever letting go
and i'll profess my love
til my lungs collapse x3
collapse
collapse
collapse

You Can Run (Album Mix)

Heading down to the coast
I was feeling the most
Like a ghost with a paranoid streak
Put the windows down
So i could drown the sound
Of the past running behind me
Put my feet in the dirt
I was feeling the hurt
From all the bad times in my life
I looked up from the ground
As i heard the sound
Of the ocean staring staring back at me
singing...
You can run
You can ghost
But you just end up where you were
You gotta run to yourself (x3)
Heading down to the shore
I've got no feeling no more
It's just a mixed bag of loose tricks
Turned the radio up
Told my mind to shut up
I'm sick and tired of all that noise
I had a friend
But it came to an end
I had a love
Wish i knew where she was
I had a heart
Now it does not start
But I have a voice
And i'll drown out all that noise
You can run
You can ghost
But you just end up where you were
You gotta run to yourself (x3)

Winning Hearts And Minds

winning hearts and minds
soon we'll turn the tide
what was yours is mine
we're winning hearts and minds
black as the night
dropping food and bombs
soon we'll turn the tide
we're winning hearts and minds
i had a fantasy
the game we played was irony
it was only jealousy
your heart wants more than i can be
so play the game with me
and in your arms tonight i'll be
so pick a side
cowards sit on the fence all night
hypocrites with their arms open wide
we're winning hearts and minds
black as the night
dropping food and bombs
soon we'll turn the tide
we're winning hearts and minds
i had a fantasy
the game we played was irony
it was only jealousy
your heart wants more than i can be
so play the game with me
and in your arms tonight i'll be

Cemetery

certain days i dream that i am whole again
is there something wrong with that?
ii can play a song for you that makes you cry
it's one i wrote when i was off the map
and the pictures never leave mey head
and their voices never cease
my mind's a cemetery for the ones i love
if only i could rest and be at peace
had to take a klonopin i lost my self
tried to come right back but i fell in
hold me through the night so i can cry again
take me back to before the dream was dead
and the pictures never leave mey head
and their voices never cease
my mind's a cemetery for the ones i love
if only i could rest and be at peace

On My Own

its like a blow to the heart
every time i fall
and when the winter is near
i could lose it all
so take me under your shelter i could use a hand
or a place to hold up until i can stand
on my own
laugh all alone
cry for no one
is there no one listening?
for all the years i've been here
sure have a lot to fear
seems everyday brings it's worst and i can't deal
i use to lean on my mama for everything
now she's gone i just lean on my medicine
on my own
laugh all alone
cry for no one
is there no one listening?
