Oh, what kind of man do I want to be? I just want to seem happy.
Oh what kind of girl are you?
Hello little beauty. I'm nice, you'll see.
Reach out to me.
I'm lonely.
I don't mind, wasting time.
Oh lord it feels just fine, because it's mine.
And I don't care what people say,
I know that I'm ok.
So they say...
If you want to stay, stay with me.
Give me your hand I'll hold it so gently.
Oh, I grow older each day. But that's ok.
That's ok...

Getting Old; Getting Sad

She sits and thinks all day, "How can I make him pay?"
Then she goes and finds a way...
He screams into the night, "Oh girl! Why do you make me feel this way? Is it love? Is it love? Is it love? I don't think so...Is it love? Guess I'll find out pretty soon....Everything zoomed by so fast, I can't take the time to take in my last breath. Girl you know that you're torturing me, but you don't care, you don't care, you don't care....You don't care what I have to eat, you don't care the size of my feet, you don't care if I have peace in me. You don't care that I have something so sweet to share with thee. You don't care that I have seen you. You don't care that I know that you aint all bad. You don't care so I walk on down the road, getting old, getting sad. Getting old, getting sad. Getting old, getting sad, and I'm moving on without you. With or without you, I'm going to find someone new. She's going to take away my blues. She is going to be so fine to me, she's going to treat me like a mother fucking king. And I will take her home and lay her down, so that she can be, the queen she deserves to be."

Because I Can

In the morning, when I wake up, I dreamed a dream that you and I could love. It was a free and happy time, because I was yours and you were mine.
We didn't fear what was to come because we knew that whatever we had to face, we'd never face it alone. Never face it alone.
I'm sorry, that this isn't real. Oh baby I'm sorry that's the way you feel. I'm trying to be a better man...
Because I can, for you. Yeah I can. Baby for you. Yes I can for you.
Oh baby blue. Sweet baby blue. I do it for you. Baby blue. Sweet baby blue.

Oh this life, it goes so fast. Gotta make those good times last. When I was a boy, i thought things moved so slow. Now I am a man, and I just don't want the time to go.
Wake up in the morning, and I brush my teeth. I see the blood falling out of me. Oh...maybe I'm just getting old. Yeah I feel so slow, and the time keeps blowing on by. Yeah I feel so old, I think it's almost time to die...BUT NOT TODAY!!!
Her eyes were green, like a mountain stream. And when she left me, I felt so mean. I just wanted her to know that I wanted to never let her go. Now I'm sitting here all alone, I'm growing old, and I'm getting stoned.
baby, baby, Why you mean to me? I was never nothing but a sweetheart to thee. Now every time I see your face, I want to just lay down and die. You #@$#ing KILL ME BABE!
Oh when I was a boy, I knew something deep. I thought there was this love out there, waiting for me to seek. But now I know that this love has grown cold and I am lonely. Now I can see that the love was just in me.

Morning Sun

When I woke up this morning, a new sun was shining. And I know that all the things that I'd done wrong, will be washed away in the morning sun. In the morning sun, everything will come. Morning sun.
Sitting here in limbo, I watch the days roll on by. My friends they go on living their lives. They're leaving me behind. But every single morning, I see the sun's still shining. And even though I'm still yawning from a late night alone, I know where I belong. In the morning sun. It'll be alright, just come along with me. In the morning sun. Let it shine.
Even when the rains they come, I'll be there holding your hand. So let me be your loving man, and I will never leave you.

Take My Body Home

when I'm born, I feel alone.
And when I go, I want to be in my home.
And I know, that I've loved, for sure.
And I hope, I hope, I hope for many more.
Well she was the prettiest woman, I've ever seen.
You know what I mean.
She would hold my hand, told me no lies, made me a happy man.
And now I go walking home, I'm by myself. Ain't no one else.
And I scream to the lord
Oh take my body home, Oh lord please, just take my body home. because I don't want to live alone.
Well I met this girl, she changed my whole world.
She could look through me, see.
she could see all the colors that I keep deep inside me.
I didn't even have to speak.
And when I wake up in this morning, well I hope that you know.
That I, I ain't never seen no one, that I loved for sure, until I met you, then you walked out my door. And I let you go, don't know what for....don't know what for....
Oh lord please just take my body home. Because I don't want to live a lone.

We're Still Waiting

Just make the time go by slowly, just make my friends feel less lonely. Look into my heart, you can see it's true. Look into my eyes, they're for no one but you.
And still I wait, and still I pray, and still I wish for a brighter day. And Still I hope, and still I dream, still I scream until the night swallows me whole. I lose all control; time takes its toll...on my mind.
When I was but 15, oh Lord, I could dream of wondrous things that I thought were real. Soon I learned that the way to hell is paved with broken dreams from a pre-pubescent cell.
When I walked, I saw it written that love would come to me. I'm still waiting....We're still waiting.

Morning Crow

Sun rises in the easy wind. I awake again. Oh, Morning Crow. What do you know about this pain I'm in? Been laid so low, I know not which way to go, I cannot be found.
Morning Crow, please let me know oh where, oh where you can be found.
She kissed me upon my brow. Somehow, I can feel it now.
Morning Crow, please let know oh where, oh where you can be found. Been laid so low, I know not which way to go, I cannot be found.

Oh, Everything I do is wrong
I keep singing the same old song
And I try, oh lord, you know I try
but I keep on going along for the same old ride
but I feel alive
I feel alive .
Oh tell me to feel alright.
When I wake up
Oh next morning
I want to be in the arms of one who loves me.
She'll be sweet.
It don't take much to get next to me.
You can try oh you will see.
Just call my name it's made of
Wheat, and dairy, and bacon, tobacco smoke, merry weed, and all these things...
don't make me
you will see.
come on the other side...
look behind the wall
oh you won't fall,
because I'll be there to catch you.
It's not so scary you'll see.
We'll drive to some places and life by thee.
Well the first day
that I knew
I knew that I had something to prove.
There was something, oh buried in me.
Not gold, not treasure, not silver,
not something you can see.
take this light, I give it to thee,
Let it burn, oh joyfully,
Take a candle and spread the flame
you will see it come around again.
Come around again.
