I'm Down
If you find the time to come lookin' for me,
I'm already gone I'm free
Won't be hanging around while you're running the town
You're gettin' high, I'm down
Up down all over town
You're gettin' around, you don't wear my heart on your sleeve
Fools game, drive me insane
You're lost and you're found, 'cause you pull me close then you leave
Red light says you're my baby, daylight brings me the blues
If you find the time to come lookin' for me,
I'm already gone I'm free
Won't be hanging around while you're running the town
You're gettin' high, I'm down
Ripped my heart from my mouth
Don't want me no more, didn't think your love was a game
Fools gold, bought what you sold
I'm not keepin' score, I'm just like a moth to your flame
Red light says you're my baby, daylight brings me the blues
If you find the time to come lookin' for me,
I'm already gone I'm free
Won't be hanging around while you"re running the town
You're gettin' high, I'm down

Gift Horse
I went down to Dixie, to see the jamboree
Met a sweet girl by the name of Gypsy Lee
She wanted me to meet her friend so we could be a three
All my dreams were coming true heard these words speak to me
Don’t punch a gift horse, don’t punch a gift horse in the mouth
The girls and me we hit the town, we burned it to the ground
Dancing, grinding, body shots - can’t believe what I had found
Took it to the limit, matched the party round for round
When it came to play my hand lay face down in the ground
Don't punch a gift horse, don't punch a gift horse in the mouth
So now you've heard my tale of all the good that got away
Make sure that you heed these words or you’ll hear the neighbours say
Don’t punch a gift horse, don’t punch a gift horse in the mouth

Sun In Our Eyes
The road I walk has veered and turned
Never know what awaits on the bend
The best of hope and faithful intent
Doesn’t matter a bit in the end
Days rollin' past, I’ll raise my glass,
To the yesterdays that brought me to today
'Cause we roll down the road with the sun in our eyes
Just a ghost caught in the wind
With the sun in our eyes, only shadows behind
And the dreams of what life might have been
The dream of why it's all meant to be
Will only drag you down in the end
Halcyon days so carelessly spent
Will haunt you when you reach the final bend
Days blowin' past, I'll raise my glass
To the yesterdays that brought me here today

Only I

Only I
When you can't take it serious and that's the way it has to be
When life keeps throwin' curves at you and an end to it ain't seen
Take your dreams and live them free live thoughts that come unfurled
Meet the mystery face to face just mold and shape your world
Rise and you will find your dreams
Live and taste what life can be
Only I can be me
Only I can see me
Only I can free me now
Only I is me
Just crawl and climb with sweat on brow 'til you see what's there on top
Once you reach the top of life there's more it never stops
Keep your eyes turned upward to the calling shining sky
Live your dreams and take them far
Don't ya let them ever die
Rise and you will find your dreams
Live and taste what life can be
Only I can be me
Only I can see me
Only I can free me now
Only I is me
Only I can be me
Only I can see me
Only I deceives me now
Only I is me

If I Can't Have You

If I Can't Have You
You and I were high-school loves we always said we'd rise above
The tations of this life of hours the mindfuck games the inside scars
The cheerlead squad the football star, prom night screams, the Chevy car
The real world came and hit us square between the dreams and hope to care
If I can't have you, if I can't have you, don't want no one else
The wheel of life forgets it's love, we said we'd always rise above
You were stuck, the business called, diversions came, consumed us all
Just as we start to see the light, all the wrongs returned right
The call came for you to come back home, reminds this life is just a loan

Close My Eyes
I walked down the street today
Saw a man who'd lost his why
Instead of looking the other way
I simply closed my eyes
Never heard the stories
About his better times
Does it bother you or me
He's living on others' dimes?
Everybody's crazy in the world today
I'll close my eyes and it'll go away
People carry guns in the places kids play
I'll close my eyes and it'll go away
Living out tomorrow at the cost of today
Just close my eyes and it'll go away
I watched the war today
On my big-screen TV
Just the highlights not the blood
A thirty-second spree
Prophets speak and profits rise
And I don't want to hear
I'll just look the other way
Better over there than over here
Everybody's crazy in the world today
I'll close my eyes and it'll go away
People carry guns in the places kids play
I'll close my eyes and it'll go away
Living for tomorrow at the cost of today
Just close my eyes and it'll go away
It's getting too much...

Who Cares?

Who Cares?
I don’t care
What you think about me
And I don’t mind
If you run me down
I don’t want to
Be your impression of me
Think I’ll just go on being myself
And I don’t know why
What people say is so important to you
I couldn’t care less of this, myself
If I worried what they said about me everyday
I’d have time for little else
Well, it’s easier to tear down
Than it is to build things up
It takes some perseverance
There’s not much to do with luck
They’ll tell you what you’re supposed to think
And what you’re supposed to say
But when they tell you that it can’t be done
Just smile and walk away
‘Cause you don’t need no one
To tell you how it’s supposed to be
You’ll get that figured for out yourself
If you worry what they say and tell you everyday
You’ll have time for little else
You'll have time for nothing else

Asshole Lives
Got no use for liars
Got no use for thieves
Got no use for anyone back-stab me for their need
Dealers sell to weakness
Thieves think life is free
Don’t they know that everything is sown that they reap
Asshole people livin' asshole lives
Got no use for haters
Got no use for fools
Got no use for anyone
That lives beyond the rules
People given choices
But they don’t take the chance
Keep on livin' their mistakes

Benjamin Suicide
Benjamin was a simple man, a simple man with a simple plan for life
He gets up every morning and without any warning he leads it
He goes off to the factory, thinking life's been good to me I think, sometimes I think
But soon he starts to realize, he sees it all through his very eyes his life, this was his life
He's a suicide
A homicide
He likes cyanide
He's a suicide
Benjamin had a simple plan, a death for a simple man this evening
He gets home from the factory, says Lord look what I've done to me, forgive me
He jumps through the window, down to the street below it ended
And soon a crowd gathers there to see that life was not so fair to Benjamin

Time

Time
At the end of my day
When my world fades away
And I'm carried to days that have passed
I see you and me
And the fools that we be
As we try to make a losing thing last
We'd make lives to rock the ages
We'd take lies to make our lives the truth
Time waits for me
I'm stuck in yesterday
Time don't care about tomorrow
Tried to change the past
To change this life today
Time don't care about tomorrow
When I see you this way
With the eyes of today
And I see the mistakes that we made
Can't take back all the wrongs
'Cause we're where we belong
In the arms of the life that we made
We take words as Holy Gospel
We take lies to take us to the truth
Time waits for me
I'm stuck in yesterday
Time don't care about tomorrow
Tried to change the past
To change this life today
But time don't care about tomorrow

Dead Man's Shoes
Time moves like a shadow under foot
Wind rolls through my dreams
Can’t shake that you’re standing next to me
Speaking signs that this life’s a dying flame, life’s a dying game
Feel like I’m walking in a dead man’s shoes
Cold hands tugging at the noose
Feel like I’m walking in a dead man’s shoes
Just a dream, in the end I’m bound to loose
Worn page that I’ve taken from your hand
Words that rolled off your tongue
To me you are a ghost of yesterday
Blowing wind sings the songs we’ve never sung, wrongs left undone

Tomorrow

Tomorrow
A thought I'd pondered in my mind, it grew so awesome my eyes went blind
I saw the future, I saw the past, I saw the earth die in atomic blast
I saw tomorrow, the past now, I try to change it but I don't know how
The future is now today is tomorrow I tried to drown myself in all my sorrow
Forget the future and live today, if you live for tomorrow you've gone astray
Gypsy woman, crystal ball, you go to see her and she shows you all
Then you live life as death is near, you've lost control of life, don't know how to steer
So live today like your last or you'll find tomorrow now has passed
