An alarming, and startling, surprise
A Phone Call Opens your eyes
Quiet words carry news of despair
Don't worry, we'll find the best care
We will all stand by you unwavering, Strong and Unshakeable
When’s the time to be scared or be brave
What decides who's life will be saved
Hold her hand to keep strength and keep will
Calm the nerves that will otherwise kill
And you'll see him holding a bright star, guiding silently.
In silver lining, as your spirit fades,
the hardest part, is remembering, that there will be
Shining silver pearls, banners and fireflies, by a host delivered
When you are free, we will all forget what a trying road it was
Echoing applause, candy and cavalcades beside flowing rivers
When you are free, we will all believe someone's watching over us.
In the hour a plan will be made
A blueprint with steps displayed
We will all form a wall on the line
Build defenses, an army in kind
And we’ll stand tall guarding a loved one, a force impregnable
In silver lining, as your spirit fades,
the hardest part, is remembering, that there will be
Shining silver pearls, banners and fireflies, by a host delivered
When you are free, we will all forget what a trying road it was
Echoing applause, candy and cavalcades beside flowing rivers
When you are free, we will all believe someone's watching over us.
If you can fight through the clouded night
If you can handle the storm,
Then we will go on
with you in our minds,
we will go on, with you in our memories
If you can fight through the clouded night
If you can handle the storm,
Then we will go on
with you in our minds,
we will go on, with you in our memories

the sun light's calling me outside
now the rain clouds calling me in
pack the car tomorrow baby
We'll start all over again
rain drops drum on the roof top
can make you wanna dance
grab the hips of the lead car baby
and We'll give fun a chance.
We can dance and sing inside
Who needs sun with shade to hide
floor or sand will you take my hand to the softer side of the weather
dreary days will show us the way to the eden we made together.
follow the steps so we try
shift and sway the rest
Can Can with a confident man
and we'll defy the best
We can dance and sing inside
Who needs sun with shade to hide
floor or sand will you take my hand to the softer side of the weather
dreary days will show us the way to the eden we made together.
follow me to the overlay silence now so we can see
I am staring into you as your staring into me
as we realize a greater sense of who we want to be
I am staring into you as your staring into me
as we realize a greater sense of who we want to be
I am staring into you as your staring into me
as we realize a greater sense of who we want to be
I am staring into you as you are staring into me
as we realize a greater sense of who we want to be

I sealed my fate in a tire today, a rolling wheel with a guide away,
The chase is all I’ll need to feel the high.
But if that tire should break at all, I’ll slow my pace I’ll stop it all
The space is what I’ll need to feel alive.
But I’ll go, go, to the beckoning call, convinced I’ll leave the emptiness behind
Still I’ll know, know, that we’re destined to fall, our fate relies on my unstable mind
I’ve buried the feelings of yesterday, or so I thought they had gone to stay
Wherever there was room within her life
I realize now it’s the only way, I’ll save a piece of my sanity
The thought of love must be kept far away
But I’ll go, go, to the beckoning call, convinced I’ll leave the emptiness behind
Still I’ll know, know, that we’ll never at all, have the chance try the test of time
But I’ll go, go, to the beckoning call, convinced I’ll leave the emptiness behind
Still I’ll know, know, that I’ll never at all, find desire by my own design

Oh, do not be alarmed
Oh, the third time's the charm
How does the distant bloodshed
How does it draw you from your home
where do you find the fight
where do you find the urge for more
12 months til the next cigar
12 months to remember who you are
365 days to see you walk through our door
12 months til we hit the bar
12 months til we pass around the guitar
365 days til you finish your tour
Pray to god that your debt is paid
Pray to god til you run into the fray
Pray to god that you know just what to say
Hope and pray that they find another way
How does life of terrors
How does it act as a call to serve
where do you find the fight
where do you find the urge for more, thus it is in War
12 months til the next cigar
12 months to remember who you are
365 days to see you walk through our door,
12 months til you're here to stay
12 months or so it is they say
365 days til you finish your tour
A dream you had while sleeping in your tent
Freedoms lost the world is hell bent
Could you fight for rights and pay your rent
Freedoms lost the world is hell bent
12 months til the next cigar
12 months to remember who you are
365 days to see you walk through our door
12 months til we hit the bar
12 months til we pass around the guitar
365 days til you finish your tour

Busy Streets

Set my eyes on open road
A pair of thoughts and dreams carry a heavy load
Caring costs more than we think
These parts and tires create a fire in every blink
As my mind drifts from the wheel
Drawn from my heart I analyze the way that I feel
I've come to love this time alone.
Long passed the place where I'm to face the grinding stone.
We bend, but we send, a sense that we won't bleed
Broke again, we amend, the hearts and souls we see
If I dread, verses read, to say til death do us part
Must be left, for the best, within the confines of this car
Pass the place they made of gold
Stuff my face to cloud disgrace I won't grow old
Would you care to realize
The challenge in the need to win the nobel prize?
We bend, and we send, a sense that we don't see
Lost again, chaos renders, what the world will be
If I said, verses read, to bottle peace in a jar
Must be left, for the best, within the confines of this car
As my mind drifts from the wheel
Drawn from my heart I analyze the good that I steal
We bend and we send, our sense of sight to greed
Broken fence, and we reckon, someone's soul will bleed
If I'm dead, versus read, to follow lights from afar
Must be left, laid to rest, within the confines of this car
Bridge
I could break out and leave the heartache and the doubt
Caring costs more than we think
Within the bars that make this car my laurels sink

Have you ever been along
The low-lit cobble stone?
Too long to carry song
It is not so, we will not go
Caught between and carried on
Only he can know
Who we are and where we’ve gone
We are not so, we will not go
We are not so
Left for those that left us all
Within a half past day
Who is all beyond the wall
He will not say, we all must wait
Long are the roads to lead us home
Short is the path we see
Too long to carry song
We cannot see, what we will be
What we will be
He is the ghost on the water
He is the salesman of souls
We are ghosts of the martyrs
We are the names on the scroll
He is the ghost on the water
He is the salesman of souls
We are ghosts of the martyrs
We are the names on the scroll

Fall Away

All of our hopes and dreams are just a minute away
Salaamu Alaykum now's the time to be on our way
Load up the truck know lady luck is on our side
Fall to the top it seems to stop we make our stride
Way.. fall away
I will go
Way…
I will stay
I will go, plant new seeds to grow
I'll move on and pass my wisdom on
Wait till we find our place in the world, make our start
Run through the clouds we make of the earth, run through the dark
What do you do with dreams you catch, corner, make yours
Bathe in the glory bathe in the light, bathe evermore
Way… fall away
I will go
Way...
I will stay
I will go, plant new seeds to grow
I'll move on and pass my wisdom on
Moving passed the urge to tuck our tale and run
Past the rest who tried and left a one and done
Give us a reason not to dream of endless love
Once upon a time we'll live a life above
I will go, plant new seeds to grow
I'll move on and pass my wisdom on
I will go
I'll Move

Dark Circles

Will you tell me again
If you’re sure it’s the end
On the day you were gone
I knew I’d never move on
Will you tell me friend
What you saw in the end
On the day that I’m gone
You’ll know I never moved on
Dark black circles on the ground
Hands of my ears blocks the sound
And I’m falling, yea
Bottles deep as any found
Hands on my mouth holds it all down
And I'm falling, yea
I try to chase those good feelings down
End up trapped by the Devil’s Crown
And I'm falling, yea
Mistakes made past won’t let me be
Hoping that someone sets me free
And I'm falling, yea
The stench of sorrow fills the air
The fiber of my heart it does tear
And I'm falling, yea
I hold relief now in my hand
Please remember for what I did stand
And I'm falling, yea

And we are standing at the funeral pyre
Where their ashes are burning
And we are waiting at the rocks piled high
‘Round the tombstones of reason
There are things in the world that are bigger than a man,
Like a man and his wife who just couldn't understand
Why I stabbed him in the back, before she felt the back of his hand
There are things in a life that are bigger than the world
Like the day-to-day battle ‘tween a boy and a girl
And the gun in her hand I left with a bottle of pills
Pray back the tide that rolls
Water over rock will take its toll
There are things in a life that bigger than us all
Like the gunned down victims in my school house hall
The youngest of them all, she stood but three feet tall
There things for us that are bigger than them
Like the lives and the courage of their women and their men
And the weapons I made, to sacrifice one for ten.
Pray back the tide that rolls
Water over rock will take my soul
There are things for them that are bigger than us
Like the life of a friend and her wheels on a bus
And the pain in her hands coin in god we trust
Pray back the tide that rolls
Water over rock will take its toll.

Without
03:39

It was hard enough, without
Her dying her hair blonde again
It was hard enough, without
Her Lying with a gentle man
I wish I could hate her more than anything, hate her for thinking she'll be given all the love she deserves
Maybe she's right this time, maybe we're past our prime...
I wish I could do what I have always done, take my love for her and turn it in to hate for her sir
he's a far better man than me...I guess I'll wait and see
How can hope for the best
My best is her worst
Can I go back to a wish
So I can quench this thirst
How can hold on to hope
That there love will end
How will I ever know
When we will start again
It was hard enough, without
her obviously missing me
It was hard enough, without
Reminders of what could have been
I wish I could tell her that her boyfriend was a waste life, good for nothing but to bring her down.
But that wouldn't be true at all.
I wish I could save her from the evil demon kissing her, but he sings a more saintly sound.
I'm not the best choice this time, please keep sending me signs
How can hope for the best
My best is her worst
Can I go back to a wish
So I can quench this thirst
How can hold on to hope
That there love with end
How will I ever know
When we will start again
.
How can hope for the best
My best is her worst
Can I go back to a wish
So I can quench this thirst
How can hold on to hope
That there love with end
How will I ever know
When we will start again
Will I ever know
has she slipped away
