Scuffed Up Girl

Nobody gives a friend nobody gives a tear
But I give a love you baby when I have you near
You've got that faraway look in your eyes
Your momma said you're getting big oh how the time does fly
Your momma said you're getting big oh how the time does fly
I watch you in the driveway washing the car
Would you let me in your little heart
If you want me I'll keep you around
I'll try to never ever let you down
You light a fire in this cold heart of mine
It can't hurt to step outside it's time to cross a line
There are some things you prove and things that are not real
Would you be my scuffed up baby be my scuffed up girl
Would you be my scuffed up baby be my scuffed up girl
I watch you in the driveway washing the car
Would you let me in your little heart
If you want me I'll keep you around
I'll try to never ever let you down

Waiting In The Wings

Well my angel waiting in the wings
She knows her lines
And she whispers them to me in my dreams
And in the middle of the day she will play
With her open minded sister in the rain
Angel baby do you know
I have a place for you deep inside my soul
Pretty angel with your big brown eyes
Oh I know you would like to be the center of my mind
When they tell you no no
That's when it's time to put on the show
Angel baby do you know
I have a place for you deep inside my soul

It Isn't Like You
02:29
|
|||
|
I have so many songs to sing
But you are not listening
Only a whisper
One quiet whisper
It isn't like you to run away
It isn't like you to say the things you say
It isn't like you look at my face is it you
It isn't like you It isn't like you
I see the writing on the wall
There is nothing there at all
Only a whisper
A little whisper
I spent all these years
And now I'm looking for?
Someone tell me please
Reach the unreachable
Touch the untouchable
Scream a thousand screams
Only a whisper
One quiet whisper
Just a whisper
One little whisper

If I'm Not There
03:01

She scoops up all my memories
Holds them out like a smoking gun
Sometimes she gives me what I need
And other times she gives me none
Tonight she took so much more
More than I can comprehend
I cannot ever let her let
This happen to me again
She don't care if I'm not there
She don't care if I'm not there
She don't care if I'm not there
She don't care if I'm not there
I put the fire on the coals
But they never start to burn
Erected walls of ice and stone
Block my movement every turn
I switch on the radio
Hear the chords of no concern
She just sits there in the dark
And she never says a word
She don't care if I'm not there
She don't care if I'm not there
She don't care if I'm not there
She don't care if I'm not there

Savior
02:37

When you're walking in the rain
See you through the windowpane
Just got out early on good behavior
And I think that you could be my savior
Things like you are such a mystery
Get to thinking everyday
How this life can be so strange
Take my brush out try to give it some color
Momma said I was an artistic failure
Pretty things are such a mystery
And I was here
Waiting for you
And you were there
waiting for me
My guitar
Is so out of tune
Please don't hate me
When I sing
When you're walking in the rain
See you through the windowpane
Just got out early on good behavior
And I think that you could be my savior
Things like you are such a mystery

World Of Lies
02:52
|

|
Little girl come over get closer
Let's spin in a world of lies
My friend the doubt and the wonder
I can see it in your eyes
Was a time I would mine
The secrets of my heart
You would laugh you would cry
And then I would depart
Too naive to be true
Too innocent to die
Too guilty to be free
In this world of lies
Little girl come over get closer
Let's spin in a world of lies

Look Into My Eyes
01:58
|
|||
|
If you can
Please believe
There is nothing greater than
Being here with me
Look into my eyes
But when there's nothing
Only us
If you must believe in something
Believe in love
Look into my eyes
If you see a dark reflection
In this hypnotic dream
Don't let it break you
Don't let it make you scream
Look into my eyes

Bird
02:27
|

|
Oh My, what's happened to me
I used to be, be so free
But now I am a caged up bird
I cannot fly I lost my wings
There are so many things that I could never be
Like a genie in a bottle or treasure in the sea
And you can call it off my friend or you can call on me
Whatever you choose my love do what makes you sing
Help me friend to understand
I do not know what you expect
My brain it is, what you call a bird brain
It's not the brightest but it's my best
There are so many things that I could never be
Like a genie in a bottle or treasure in the sea
And you can call it off my friend or you can call on me
Whatever you choose my love do what makes you sing
Little girl would you please help me
My cage is underneath this old canopy
And I need your loving eyes to finally see
Would you turn the key and set me free again
Would you turn the key and set me free again

December

December night
Sun sets and the wind blows
Clouds and shadows
The storm brings snow
And voices in my head
Will and freedom dead
It's like I always said to you
The rocky ledge
Persuades my mind
That peace is found
In swift decline
And if I ever disappear
You will find my body here
You will find my body

Time Freezes
01:29

I once knew a nice girl who liked to play rough
She cut out my eyes and put them in a trough
The hogs they were friendly as they gave them a lick
To market to market to buy a fat pig
Time freezes in my mind
My brain is paralyzed
And feelings sold and bought
My heart is left to rot
She had a sweet sister who said if you please
You be the birdy and I'll be the bee
My head went all foggy I forgot how to swim
And that's when I knew it had happened again
Time freezes in my mind
My brain is paralyzed
And feelings sold and bought
My heart is left to rot
Cerveza cerveza donde esta el baño
Said the poor bastard who played on the piano

Be Good

Be good and do what you are told
Believe believe in rock n roll
Turn up the fire your messiah's getting cold
We'll make believe that we are friends
Open the gate and walk the fence
We'll break the mold
Show me your Jesus I'll show you mine
We'll make them dance to pass the time
It's so divine
Smile princess you'll soon be queen
The ruler of your delusional dreams
Let's throw him in the wishing well
Pray he keeps us out of hell
Let's make a splash
Be good and do what you are told
Behave behave and save your soul
It's half past ten
Wash my hands and say a prayer
I like her in her underwear
She'll save the world
Bloody Mary bloody hell
Got Jesus locked up in a cell
Figure it out

Fleeting
03:51
|
|||
|
Do you remember laughing with your eyes
At the world inside your head
Do you remember opening your lips
Not caring what you said
And I was watching through a glass
As you left my world behind
I almost lost track of the hours
As my heart beat into time
And you were breathing
You were laughing
Make believing
You were dancing
It was meant to be
Not knowing
It was fleeting
And I'm right here
And you are on the other side I know
But have no fear
Because I am looking through the window
The world is cold
The people tell us all to be like them
But I don't know
We need to start at the beginning again
Do you remember crimson blood
And thorns and angel wings
We saw fairies in the field
Weaving their dreams
And I so wanted things to blend
But the ghosts had other plans
I could almost see into your soul
When we crawled into the sand
And we were breathing
We were laughing
Make believing
We were dancing
It was meant to be
Not knowing
It was fleeting
And you were breathing
You were laughing
Make believing
You were dancing
It was meant to be
Not knowing
It was fleeting

Curly Fry has great big blue eyes
Take a trip to the center of her mind
Sometimes your thoughts are the road that leads to perfection
I'm being pulled in fifty different directions
You told me about all those places you'd been
But now you're here with me my friend
Sometimes a new life starts at a dead end
Sometimes a lose lose turns into a win
They said this love could never work it out
Bet there's a cupid feeling stupid right about now
Because sometimes something that's not meant to be
Fits together like a puzzle perfectly
You told me about all those places you've been
But now you're here with me my friend
Sometimes a new life starts at a dead end
Sometimes a lose lose turns into a win
