All of my prophets were singers of sad songs,
So it' no wonder that I've been the victim of,
All of my prophets were singers of sad songs,
So it's no wonder that I've been the victim of
A wavering faith
A wavering faith, call me weak if you like
My body gets tired
Of it's internal driver
Relentless unsatisfied and wired
Look at were you're coming from
All she's been through and all you've done...
Maybe tonight in the few short moments In which we converse
We can speak of something other than the ways our bodies hurt us.
Please, please, think of me. I'm Alive and still breathing
I'm wondering is this a death bed in which the living lay.
This turned out to be something that I have no control over
This secret reservoir that can dry up, or spill over
As it pleases. This power is stripped f...
Never expected what I got
In a million years never would have thought
That I could have been taught all I've been
You've been, I've been taught
Guess I can't run away from that
In time I'll be tugging holding pulling stretching on
What I created caring bleeding hoping seeing all
All I wanted in you
Hope I make it through
This ride happens all the time
But this time it's mine
I've paid in full ...
Now I have more of my life
But when I go nuts it's all that I write
Maybe a circus animal, maybe I'm at the zoo
This strange mind in a cage is all that shows through.
Some days are so long
He was a great once, this I promise to you
Most things fall apart
Maybe I was to
Maybe I have to.
Somewhere between twelve and two
Once again there's smoke in my brain
She's been gone for years but in the cl...
Its something we all say we want
Its something most will live without
Happy is what you make
Its up to you it's not my choice to make
I don't need that anymore
I'm older now I'm seeing clear
This is what I made
Its up to me it's not your choice to make
Its nothing that you want to hear
So listen up, make myself clear
Sacrifice is your savior
Its on the inside that you'll find it all
Not in the...
I remember a time when you wouldn't of said
The things you just said
Once again I get what I deserve
And you should never speak another word
In my direction, direction,
Direct me to the nearest corner store
Where I can buy me a little bottle
Give it up don't let her know
Give it up don't let her know
Your eyes will grow cold
Give it up sleep alone
Your eyes will grow cold
There was a world her...
Someone please help me I can't see straight
Seems I've been drinking too much of late
And have you seen the powers of your gods
Oh please, oh please, don't share your wisdom.
Summer came again it's staying forever
It's tied to my ribcage and it's going nowhere
I never want to see another winter
It's still a fact that I never asked to be here.
So what
Did you or anyone, anyway, I don't know
I g...
Some of us have chosen to spend our time here
To bring more pain and scaring
To everyone around, excuses ring out loud
Its what we've all been taught, what we were shown when we were kids
You say quot;Look at me Now, Look at me Now
I am bruised and broken downquot; and you say
quot;How do you really expect me to break out
Of a cycle that has been around
Since before we were even bornquot;
A le...
Maybe I should just get used to it
These words I'll use again and again
Don't you know, how this disgust me
Just to know how you always trusted me
Just to know that I would never
See anymore than what's on your face
Stripped from heavens holy grace, I've been
Cursed to live with demons that come with life all alone
If you just knew that you know nothing
You'd be a whole hell of a lot smarter
T...
Hopeful but not optimistic
My mind becomes more dangerous by the second
So I'm hopeful but not optimistic
Lay down what you're working on
It's time to sleep
I promise that tomorrow will come
Cause time the clock keeps, it keeps.
I'm traveling faster and if death comes at least
Silence is comforting, finally released
From endless ringing
These are the horses that are calling me
The perfect endi...
You are not alone my brother
I have always been with you,
Have we eaten something deadly
Something poisonous consumed.
I just longed for days that were simple
When books still held the golden keys,
But I know that to be an illusion
Know that they were never that way.
I'm not a God Damn machine man
I've got two arms and two eyes,
Guess this is what we lost sight of
Swallowed it with no reply.
W...
Hell lets make it through the next two weeks or so
Just a couple more stitches to sew
And you know I know you know we're all alone
We don't need a genius to know
Born that way and die the same so I'm told
Laying in the grass in California
I keep warm beer and sleeping bags for comfort
Strangely it's embodied by Palace Brothers
When they sing songs about horses
Tomorrow I could be gone
Maybe I'...
Up much too late writing letters in my head
To far away people wouldn't know if they were dead
People far away that I once knew
Some people so close you can see right through
Most people your whole life will be in between
Never know never talk to, wish you'd never seen
Will I become engulfed with all I did or did not do,
What should have been what cannot be helped
Sometimes the truth, so hard ...
You can spend your life, trying to reach the highest
But know, most planes make awful boats,
So sink to the lowest of the low,
Hello, I've made my home in the second guess, Always second best
The taste of my skin, is purest bitterness.
Till I remember january may be cold and wet here,
someone's singing summer songs in Australia
It seems each new day, has got a job to do,
to take its days worth...
We shared everything one days evening
He brought me to you with a voice that sang so clear
Many years ago, how could I have known
That those same years spent never knowing
That love won't allow its own creation
And two separate lives can be lived in unison.
This ink just ran dry
Unexpected goodbye to this here place in time.
But I've moved nowhere
I sing sounds of farewell, I'm leaving you beh...
So it's one for the ride this time
Every day just bring her back alive
There are men who would spend their whole lives,
Working real hard, I'll work harder than that
I see things clearer through your eyes, Everything's Fine
I've been with you through your whole life you've been here for mine
Some things I've known since the day I was born
Honey your just one of them
One for the ride this time
...
Its a long way back from nothing
But that's just where we're coming from
A place called Houston on the map I can remember when
He picked us up just like water
You have to keep on drinking to go on living
To keep on living - Sometimes I wasn't thirsty at all
The day you realize that you already have
Everything that you ever wanted, you'll know
If a man can love enough he can save a million live...
We don't listen to those records anymore
They're all really dark they just make my day harder to
Get through, but changing is such a difficult thing to do
So now I'm - I'm singing - To you now
Just like I always have - I'm singing - To you now
When you speak do you say what you mean
Sometimes I'm so ready for this all to be ending
Its tick tick ticking - a time bomb monster half the time
I'm s...
Part of me wants to go back through time
To those years, they were yours and mine only
Man there was nobody
Part of me wants to get on with it
I've seen days like these before and there so long
I don't want them anymore I'm leaving them off
Whining maybe, Love you definitely
I'm sorry. I don't know why I get like this so often
I'm killing myself - I'm killing us both
I can't afford not to take...
How the god is mixed in
The evil it does blend
In this drink that we all taste.
And when the bottle is gone
I hope I can look upon
All that I've done with a smile
And bright and overflowing eyes,
Reflecting upon all they've seen
With the same glow as the
Child born March 8th 1977.
Please make my arrow shoot straight
I'm tired of all the shots that missed
It's one thing that I won't miss
Betray...
Tried for the launch but you only sank into the sea
Not a star but just a starfish you'll be
Cold water rising seaweed sings sweet dreams
Take a closer look no telling who you might be.
Guess those who are most alive
Feel closest to death all the time
And they never know me
I guess it's hard to know someone,
I never know myself.
Wake up, go see what you can create
Sleep tight, just pray that y...
Who'd of known
Looking a the dark dirt gravel road
You'd of done everything you've done
Or that I'd become all I've become
Intimidate me - I'm afraid
Frustrate me - Stomach ache
Its dark tonight wherever you are
Its dark tonight where I am also
The gift of light is something you'll never know
I'm alright - I'm alright
Comfort in Holding your hands
Won't soften the blows to come
Comfort in thin...
Look at me - I can carry the load
Time and deeds have proven I'm not so stupid I can't see
The light that shines - on easier roads
So be my guest that's not the way I'm headed tonight
There's a cynic in every crowd
You're so real it hurts to look into your eyes
At some point something's got to give
You give and give till you can't give no more
You give and you give till its all gone
And she ca...
I have found that the devil may reside
Inside these hands of mine,
If you piss me off
Be careful how you talk when you come around me boy.
I'm liable to come out to your home,
Drag you out and give you what you deserve
And every broken bone will be a testament to show
The world what happens when a man cannot control
His words and actions and when he doesn't know enough to know
When to leave we...
Blessed am I to sit here today
Taking this time to carve out a place
Where I may find some rest and give others solace
To remind and remember, what can't be bought with dollars
From your pockets. Not everything.
It's something I should remember.
Treasure It its all you own
Treasure It its all that's your own
Food costs money and kids gotta eat something
If a farmers work is honest the contribu...
This is no longer nor will it ever be that way
Again, cause there are too many
Boxes stacked high upon each other.
Where did the time Go
Where did the time Go to
Look through each one and decide,
Decide what was most important
To keep, and to keep us strong,
Aid us in our Journey.
Journey Through this Valley
Valley of unending chaos, unrest
Valley of Darkness and Death.
This is no longer nor w...
