Who would I be if I was true to myself? who would I be if I was someone else? Would I like me if I was the only one left? Since I can't be someone else I must be me, myself

Have Faith in Me

Have faith in me.

More than I have in myself.

Trust in me.

Trust that I still have some left.

Help me
to trust again.

Help me
to get back
to where I've already been.

Have faith in me.

(1999)

Believe My Lies

If I said that
I was over her

If I said

If I said that
she is no longer
the focus of my dreams

you can believe.

Believe my lies.

'Yes son, what is it? '

I'm not like most of the other guys I know.
I don't like girls.'

'Son? '

'Yes Dad? '

'I love you! '

'Dad!
Didn't you hear what I just said? '

'Son!
Didn't you hear what I just said? '

The Law of the Gun

Even though we parted many years ago
the mother of my children
has a special place in my heart.

She gave me the most precious gift
that anyone can give

she gave me immortality.

Through my children
and their children's children
my spirit shall live on.

And there shall be new generations
of people respecting people
and not the law of the gun.
