  • Downward Spiral 
    You can't call me a saint  
    Watch out for your feelings
    I'm just willing to paint  Your idea of an existence 
    Back home I'd lock my door And cry to myself to sleep 
    I’d lie to myself I'll be just fine 
    <<Chorus>>
    <<No one sees me locked up
    Confining myself It’s a long downward spiral I know
    The wave of this pain Pushes me further down the slope
    I think I’ve lose all hope In this downward spiral>> 
    I can't take it anymore 
    I'm falling so fast 
    Try to stop myself I wonder how long will this last 
    Memories of then, send me down 
    Confound by your vise of wickedness  
    I have been ripped off
    I pray time will soften the blow
    But this is how it goes 
    <<Chorus>>
    I would love to slash my wrist  
    When I have my fits
    Just to feel me bleed To know I’m alive I can thrive
    No delusion in pain but intrusive
    I’ve been captured by these years of self torture 
    I need to let go
    But he shattered all that really mattered
    How can this leave me be

    <<Chorus>>


     Busted
    U took a look then made away like a crook in the dark
    While I had to lay, I couldn't say a word
    Forced to hid inside As my innocents was taken
    All of me became shaken 
    Six years living in hell
    As your stupid silent bell
    Making me feel 
    <<Chorus>>
    <<Trust is a bust My heart turned to rust
    Don't matter there’s no need to fuss Cuz trust is a bust
    This an’t too much to take It’s just how I feel
    My heart is heavy part steel Cuz trust is a bust>>  
    Years of fear didn’t teach me how to keep gentle love near
    Love in my heart, I didn't feel equipped
    So many tears to sip With no desire in my soul
    I didn’t think my heart was whole
    Cuz numbness can feel like bliss
    If you’re willing now to miss
    Loves sweet kiss    (but) 
    <<Chorus>> 
    Open my soul only to you, no matter the mood
    Deep in me knew I’d have to start
    Or keep falling apart
    For you I’ll pour it all out
    Regardless of myself doubt
    Promise you’ll see this through
    So I can catch a new view
    So I don’t feel

    <<Chorus>>


    Somehow

    I wish I could show you what's inside
    All I do is run and hide
    I know it's not your fault
    You’re not the one for me 
    <Chorus>
    <Cuz you could never see
    Who I need to be
    So you've got to go
    I won't listen, listen, listen anymore>
    Somehow it all seemed to dissipate
    You weren't so great
    All you made me do is hate
    But it's not too late for me
    I'm gonna pick myself up
    And walk on with my own life
    Know I have to do what is right for me  
    <Chorus> 
    You were clouded on what you thought was real
    I coulda’ shown you the deal 
    But you made me feel so numb
    I should have run
    I wish we had more fun
    Under the gun
    But we both had to hide what's inside of us
     <Chorus> 
    Somehow you caged me
    Somehow you enraged me   
    I wish I could show you what's inside
    All I do is run and hide
    I know it's not your fault
    You’re not the one for me 
    <<Chorus>>

     Dragon Eyes
    I’m not sure which way to go
    I realize I’ve sunk so low
    But I need you You can’t leave me: as you proceed to go     
          
    I don’t need your pity
    I don’t need your lies
    But don’t look at me with your, dragon eyes
    For there is no disguise,
    For my lies
    But you won’t tempt fate and I took your bait 
    <<Chorus>>
    <<I thought I needed you so
    But now I see the numbness you caused
    Has gone away and now its happy days
    As I lay in the sun Like we‘ve never begun>>  
    I thought you’d come around
    Given me a sound ground
    To stand upon but I was wrong
    You weren’t that strong
    For me, it took so long
    For both to see, building misery 
    <<Chorus>> 
    Love to tell you I’m okay
    Sure you’d just walk away
    Why get caught up, settled down again
    All I brought was sin
    You could never win
    Just wanted you to see
    Which is why I just can’t let things be 

    <<Chorus>>


    For Me
    I'm looking and I can't find you
    I need to know where you've headed
    So I can try to understand
    What turned off, where you lost hope?
    Now nothing’s a joke
    I went up, you fell down
    I need you to turn around
    Come back from your misery
    Please for me 
    <<Chorus>>
    <<Am I worth it to you
    Don't you love me enough?
    Cuz this is enough of what you've done
    If you don't change now
    You'll be what you despise
    And you'll sit and wonder why I told you so>> 
    What happened to the way we could kid
    No matter what the hell they did
    Don't ever let that be forgotten
    I'm distraught, at the thought
    That you’re drowning now
    You tripped up and fell in
    You’re sinking in despair
    Come up and take a breath
    Just for me  
    <<Chorus>>  
    Don't do it, don’t do it, don’t do it again
    Don’t wait, don’t wait, don’t wait for angels
    Learn to stand your ground
    Learn to walk around
    Get up off your knees 
    Please for me 
    <<Chorus>>

    Traxs

    These trax lead too many places
    Here in the middle it divides two sides
    Windows shaking, never breaking,
    I love to walk the line
    Balance put into every step, never fall behind
    I’m always far behind
     <<Chorus>>
    <<I’m crossing these trax and I’m not looking back
    I’m taking your hand; you can show me the way
    I’m putting all my faith in you and all you doI have to cuz I love you>> 
    A train is coming and it seems I’m in the middle
    And I have to figure out which way to go
    I’m not to close to any stops, so I think I’ll just get up
    But I love to feel the vibe and feel the ride, so here I lie   
    What a thrill to feel the train so close
    But when it’s gone, it’s gone, now what do you do 
    I can write and fight the demons in my head    
    But that’s been said before      No one wants to listen anymore 
    <<Chorus>> 
    In the fog you seemed to stand so far away
    Who knew, the other side would came to play
    Enticing you every day I managed to make you stay
    Now the end of our day we can always lay making things right
    You often say how you love me so
    I know my wall can be so hard to climb
    So I promise I won’t put up a wall       
    I’ll let it all fall away   Then we can now have our day 
    <<Chorus>> 
    Not sure what to do, I’m torn over you
    I could love you and stay or get out of your way
    Should I cross these trax to the other side?
    Where I can hide myself or find a new self
    Put old me on a shelf, that never helps 
    <<Chorus>>

    TAKE IT IN
    <<Chorus>>
    <Take it in being you is no sin
    You have to begin or you'll never grin
    Your way and sway, it’s what you’re meant to be
    The reason you were sent
    Try not to let yourself get bent, oh just take it in, yea> 
    Do as you wish but I'll promise you this
    You'll find no one like me
    Cuz I've been the hippie with too much fight
    I've been the head banger with not, not enough bite
    But I've loved being the freaky freak that I am
    Most don't even know where to stand
    But I understand in this land of freedom
    We don't always know How to seedem’ and greetem’
    But that ok As long as you can find your stand
    And come up with a plan 
    <<Chorus>> 
    I've been all over America
    I've seen so many dream their dreams
    But never know how to endeavor
    What it take to get your ass up and wake up and shake up what's inside
    So you can thrive your drive
    No compromise let it rise high in you
    It doesn't matter if you don't have a clue
    As long as you have some view of your dreams
    Let yourself go far, know who you are 
    <<Chorus>>
     In the end it's only you and you have to be true
    It's such a sad story when people just worry
    Life's not meant for us to hurry
    Slow down and smell the roses
    Don't just look at all their poses
    Learn to sit not give a shit
    Don't let your teeth grit I'll get a bit you sit get lit. 

     Scapegoat

     The depression has suppressed your true feelings
    Don’t treat me like your scapegoat
    I’ve been bruised, I’ve been used….
    Don’t treat me this way I’m not willing to play your games
    They all end the same
    With me in my hands
    Asking you why
    You bring me to tears   
     <<Chorus>>
    <<Why can’t you reach for me when you’re down? 
     You know I’m always around 
    Why can’t you let me help you through this mess? 
    I don’t want you to repress 
    There’s nothing wrong with being scared 
    I want to be there>> 
    I want to see a change to rearrange
    Your strange behavior
    Cuz you’re my savior Not my excavator
    Please be careful with me
    Oh I don’t know why
    I always start to cry
    I’m asking you why
    You bring me to tears 
    <<Chorus>> 
    Make it easy on yourself
    Allow me to help
    Let’s take this chance together
    There’s nothing wrong with being scared
    I want to be there
    <Chorus> 
     
    Time Keeps Tick’en

      

    Time keeps tick’en
    Time keeps tick’en away
    Come back to bed and lay your sweet head
    No need to open the curtains
    You keep it bright
    You keep my sight 
    <<Chorus>>
    <<But time keeps tick’en time keeps tick’en away
    I'm afraid cuz the days are short and so is life
    I can't seem to get enough of you
    Cuz time keeps tick’en time keeps tick’en away>>        
    Life wasn't seen, glistening
    Fear held on tight I felt I had to fight
    But my darling dear is brave
    Crossing new boundaries I’m saved
    As time keeps tick’en time keeps tick’en away
    Our light can’t be faded
    I won't become jaded
    If I've crawled in my hole I’m in need of your soul 
    <<Chorus>> 
    With my sweet, I’m complete
    It is so trueI'm nothing without you
    So let’s lay this way forever Cuz I can endeavor life
    As time keeps tick’en time keeps tick’en away
    Leeward’s how I fly
    But as time goes by
    My path becomes so swerved
    But your love I deserve 
    <<Chorus>>
    You took a chance in me
    You gave this butterfly, some gravity
    You’re my reality
    <<Chorus>>

     

    Your Drift
    You come home from work today          
    Yes I am in one of my bad sways
    You lightly, kiss my check    
    We don't have to speak
    I’m drifting in through your beautiful blue eyes      
    Now my sway can play  You melt all that I'd felt away  
           
    <<Chorus>>
    <<I get moody and forget my duties
    I get lazy and it drives you crazy
    I get stupid but cupid hit us in the heart    
    And we’ll never part
    I thank you for loving me>> 
    Your drift can sift through my thoughts    
    With you I don’t feel so lost
    You help me glide along
    No matter what is wrong
    So I’ll do anything, I’ll do anything for you
    Now my sway can play  You melt all that I'd felt away 
    <<Chorus>> 
    With nothing left to disguise
    I can feel those butterflies
    Our flowers they still grow
    Even in our snow
    I've always known how you've felt
    You’re steeling my heart away
     Now my sway can play  You melt all that I'd felt away


     Sorry?                                          
    <<Chorus>>
    <<Sorry I love you, sorry I hate you
    But I just never knew, which way to go with you
    I tried to get it, but a flame just lit it
    That thought went up in smoke
    Now it sends me round again, I’m sorry, so sorry>> 
    Sort it out
    There’s no doubt it’s hurting you
    What are you supposed to do
    You are coming unglued
    I’m sorry, I don’t get you
    Sorry you couldn’t cope, what happened to hope
    In the end your demons ruled
    So now I’ve lost my chance
    For that one last dance 
    <<Chorus>>
    You’re free
    That’s the way God wants it to be
    I needed you to be alright
    You weren’t strong enough to fight
    I’m sorry, I don’t get you
    Sorry I never knew, what made you so blue
    You’d think I’d known you a little more  
    But your temper would make me sore
    I had to walk out that door 
    <<Chorus>>
    Deep in me
    I prayed that you’d climb higher
    I needed you to walk the wire
    But you put me through the fire
    I‘m sorry, I don’t get you
    Deep down in you, do you regret it?
    You made me feel so unloved
    Such a shame that you couldn’t see

    That’s the way it has to be

    I'm sorry, So sorry, I'm sorry


    Waves 
    Our lives are like water that always flows
    And it’s hard to know which way it’ll go
    Some days fly by with a quick pace
    Just keep in mind, your life’s not a race
    While other days trickle ever so slowly
    Like a brook, in no hurry, without any worry
    <<Chorus>>
    <<Waves roll in waves roll out
    Our mood can change with the moon no doubt 
    The ocean and skies they give no lies
    Can you see God’s disguise? >>  
    The currents can send you to places unknown
    But in the end you’ve grown and oh how it’s shown
    We can have falls so harsh
    But we can’t stop, bursting in pieces
    Yet just ahead calm water increases
    So please don’t despair always be aware (when) 
    <<Chorus>>
     With life going here and life going there
    Not everything’s fair, so find those that care
    Keeping true love alive
    Cuz under currents, they come up so fast
    It is hard to hold on, making things last forever after

    But if you don’t grasp your line, you could just get left behind  (cause)

    <<Chorus>>
