Jennifer Lost The War
Jennifer lost the war today
You'll find her burned and raped
Through it all
She must have wondered
What have I done
But nobody really cares today
The world's a busy place
Guess she must have really sinned
CHORUS:
I guess we're all just soldiers
She was only six years old
Left to die by strangers
Her family waits
And if we're all just soldiers
Is it so wrong to be afraid
Phoebe lost the war today
There must be some mistake
Say it happens all the time
And it's said and done
And Little Miss 1565 Your soul remains unclaimed
Guess you must have really sinned
Morality won't help her
When she lies silent in a morgue
And all our sorrows just don't count at all
But will the morning headlines
Even say that it's a shame
What are we headin' for
Seen it all before
Silent on the ground
As he's walking away
And I wonder how many more
Everybody takes it
Like it's nothing at all
Jennifer lost the war

Come Tomorrow
About the time Im eight years old
I met the devil, kept my soul
Walkin out on lakes of fire and Im gone
Walkin in a wonderland
And I dont really understand
The place Im comin to right now today
Chorus
Come tomorrow, you could see the light
Come tomorrow, break it right down to the place you were before
Fifteen years on down the line
I guess youd say Im doin fine
Wandering down that same old road again
Walkin in a wonderland
But alice doesnt understand
The place shes comin to right now today
Chorus
On your knees, youll be begging me please
As you feel the disease
Youre going down again tonight
See me runnin, watch me fall
I guess youd say Ive finally found my own,
See me cryin and wonder why
I guess youd say its time to die today

Keepin My Fingers Crossed
Chorus:
We gotta work it out
Get back what we lost
I see shadows of a doubt,
But Im keepinmy fingers crossed
She was just turning 17
He always promised her hed stay
They were so love crazy til she had a baby
Then he turned and walked away.
How long will we keep this goin on
Before we find a way
To care for each other
Living for today, we'll never see tomorrow.
Chorus
He was just out to get a wreck
He was too proud to show his pain
Someone pulled a trigger guess he never figured
He would lose at his own game.
How long can we keep this goin on
When no one takes the blame
Theres so many gone
We could find a way, it may not be too late.
Chorus
Take a look around, see how hard it is
To survive these days
But sometimes you wonder
How long can this keep goin on
I guess the only thing you do is keep your fingers crossed
How long will we keep this goin on
When no one takes the blame
Theres so many gone
Livinfor today, we may not see tomorrow

Today, I will get up before my alarm
Today, I won't close my eyes until dusk
Today, I will not get a speeding ticket
Today, I will count this day as a first
Today, I will enjoy the life that has been left to me

Today, I won't wonder about the could-have-beens
Today, I'll smile.......Today, I'll Laugh.... Today, I'll relax

Today, I'll find something new that wasn't true of you
Today, I won't be afraid to look upon a new face

Today, I'll look forward instead of behind
Today, I'll find some piece of mind
Today, I'll hope.... Today, I'll pray... Today, I'll believe
Today, I'll dream as if I always did
Today, I'll wish on a star the way I used to
Today, I'll reach for the heavens and sigh
Today, My heart will start to heal
Today, the biggest miracle is ME.
Today, Yesterday's problems ceased to be
Today, the rain has stopped and the sun has returned
Today, the breath of kindness is found in words
Today, I wonder.... Today, I am a child.

You Left Me With A Broken Heart
I miss you terribly,
I miss your touch,
Your kiss,
The way you used to say you loved me,
I know I have screwed up in the past,
Oh how I wished our love would have last,
This time I know I will never see you again,
What I did was wrong,
What you did was wrong as well,
But I guess things fall apart for a reason,
You have left me broken hearted,
I am sitting here crying writing this poem,
But I guess this wasn’t meant to be,
I guess we weren't meant to be,
I am finally letting you go,
I hope you’ll find true love one day,
I hope you know I did loved you and cared for you,
I hope you’ll realize what you have lost was something you could have had will not get back.
This is to Kevin Billiot (Whom I thought was my true love)

I Lost Him
i lost him
i guess honestly-i never really had him
i lost his heart
the soft touch
i guess i lost him
i guess honestly-i never really had him.
i lost him
the sinful smile
the trusting strength
i guess i lost him
i guess honestly-i never really had him.
i lost him
i lost the truth
the honest truth
i lost him
i guess honestly-i never really had him
i lost him
what is worse-is-
i loved him
i still love him
and now because i never told him i loved him,
i lost him.
i guess honestly-i never really had him.

Miss The Lights
(intro) walking tall, full of tedious charm,
The smoothest (? ? ? ) in (? ? ? )
The mission boys all cross their palms
Dont you know who I am
I guess you miss the lights? huh!
I guess you miss the fame
I guess you miss everybody
Hanging onto your name
Little caesar is prince of the city
? ? ?
In this town theres no pity
This man stands alone
I guess you miss the lights - ha!
I guess you miss the fame
I guess you miss everybody
Hanging onto your name
Sometimes when youre all alone
And the blue turns to gray
Better get down on those pinky knees,
And you start to pray
I guess you miss the lights - ha!
I guess you miss the fame
I guess you miss everybody
Kiss-kissing your name
(instrumental)
A glimmering ? , a twilight star
And so much love for show,
A returning wave from the gallery bar
And share the afterglow
I guess you miss the lights
I guess you miss the fame
I guess you miss everybody
Hanging onto your name
Ha!
I guess you miss the lights
I guess you miss the fame, haha!
I guess you miss everybody
Hanging onto your name
(fade out music and chorus)
I guess you miss the lights
I guess you miss everybody
Kiss-kissing your name

Little Roland Lost
Im lost, Im lost, find me
Im lost, Im lost, find me
He wondered too far now
He is lost and lonely
Little roland all alone
Cause he cant find his way
Wish I was home in the arms of my mom
Shes the one to protect me
But here I am in the woods by myself
Wont somebody find me
Im lost, Im lost, find me
Im lost, Im lost, find me
I see a path maybe this is the way
That leads to safety
No just a dead end leading to nowhere
Wont somebody find me
Im lost, Im lost, find me
Im lost, Im lost, find me
Little roland see your field eyes
Little legs running wildly
Comes the night, strange noises
Guess hes lost forever
Im lost, Im lost, find me
Im lost, Im lost, find me

Today! !
Today the sun was shine less
Today the moon was mood less
Today the birds were wing less
Today as the sun rose, they told me
Today as I woke
They told me
Last night I’ve lost my voice they echoed me
Today the mountains are height less
Today the clock was time less
Today the sky was wind less
Today my hands were workless
Today as the sun boiled, they told me
Today as I spoiled
They told me
Last morning I’ve lost my hands they assured me
Today the world was sightless
Today the room was lightless
Today the voices were figureless
Today my eyes were imageless
Today as the night dived, they told me
Today as I defined
They told me
Last afternoon I’ve lost my eyes they cursed me
Today the era was soundless
Today the room was noise less
Today the things were strike less
Today my ears were voice less
Today as the dawn fell, they told me
Today as I felt
They told me
Last evening I’ve lost my ears they pitted me
Last night I was voiceless
Last night I was hand less
Last night I was eyes less
Last night I was ears less
And now today I feel
That they’ll tell me
That I’ve lost, they’ll yell me
Lost a heartbeat
And now is grave less
Left in open far godless
Unmentioned they say expressionless.

Ill Tell You Now
Written by lindsey buckingham.
I stayed at home today,
Didnt have a lot to say,
I guess you must wonder why,
Ill tell you,
Tell you now.
I felt the same today,
The same as always,
I guess you must wonder why,
Ill tell you,
Tell you now.
I need someone today,
Someone who can take my place,
I guess you must wonder why,
Ill tell you,
Tell you now.

Moving on
Moving On
By: Jean Pullman
Today was just like any other
I saw you in the morning then left to my job
And when I came home I saw you with her
Well guess what
CHORUS
I’m moving on
I want you gone
I don’t want anything to do
With another like you
Yeah I’m moving on
You told me lies
You cheated on me too
I thought I was in love
And now I know I was wrong
So now I guess I will be fine
Not wasting my time
No
CHORUS
I’m moving on
I want you gone
I don’t want anything to do
With another like you
Yeah I’m moving on
So were done and there ain’t no going back
So please stop calling
So please stop writing
Because I am through with the hurt
And I won’t make it work

Every Soldier Has A Dream
After a war a soldier sometimes has to cry as dreams of those memories waters in the eye.
It's very sad when this world of ours goes to war.
Peace is the thing that soldiers have fought and died for.
With hands held in the air a soldier cries a bit but people are blind to dreams that do not fit.
Some people abuse this world but one day they'll find that they've lost their battlefields and they are unklind.
Lost battlefields and dreams with no victories won, following the forgotten hero.
Here they come.
They bury the dream because they cannot recall what it was that made the Soldier stand proud and tall.
Soldiers come from all walks of life.
Sisters.
Brothers.
Soldiers with many dreams seldom shared with others.
Soldiers who had loved ones and families back home.
Some soldiers are just children
and still on their own.
Honoured I feel to remember soldiers this way.
I salute them have I your attention I say.
Stand at ease,
fall out.
Sir nobody knew his name.
Dear God you know who he was our dream was the same.
Undaunted was the soldier in the face of fear.
No turning back.
Each soldier shed a silent tear.
But I wonder why no one hears the soldiers cry.
Listen today as soldiers go to fight and die .
Try to imagine the soldiers forgotten dream.
Keep the memory of what the Soldier
had been.
It haunts us today and remains here in our time.
Ghosts with forgotten dreams remain.
Its such a crime.
What the soldier fought for is what we must redeem,
as we look back and try to recapture the dream.
The ship's sunk and they say,
we're glad we missed the cruise.
Don't take for granted things in life we shouldn't loose.
When the battle is over and the dreams don't sit.
Every soldier must cry just a little bit.

Heavy Weather
(michael sembello)
In the news today
Heavy weather
Oh, I can remember
The skies were so blue
That lucky old moon I promised to you
Now its gone lately
Somethings happening
I dont understand
Oh, how come decembers
Are hotter that june?
And how come the flowers
Dont know when to bloom?
Somethings wrong, people
Somethings happening
Happening where we live
The rising smoke against an endless sea of cars
As mother nature gets another senseless scar
In the news today
I guess were in for heavy weather
In the world today
Were heading for some heavy weather
The rain is falling harder each day
The faces keep changing
But the problem remains
Somethings wrong, people
Right before our eyes
Weve been hypnotized
The sound of silence
Broken by the sound of war
How can we heal
If we keep opening up the sore?
In the news today
I guess were in for heavy weather
In the world today
Were heading for some heavy weather
Will we ever hear the message?
Read the signs?
Stop all this talking now
Its time to save our lives
In the news today
I guess were in for heavy weather
In the world today
Were heading for some heavy...
The road ahead keeps leading back again
The train were on is coming to an end
Lets open up our eyes
In the world today
Were heading for some heavy weather
In the news today
I guess were in for heavy weather
In the news today
I guess were in for heavy weather

Candy From Strangers
Summers come and gone,
Billy faded like the sun,
Mommy wants him back where he belongs.
Waiting by the phone,
Billy please come home.
(CHORUS)
Open up your eyes,
Walking into danger.
Happens every time,
Children look for saviors.
(But I fall) for candy from strangers.
Lisa lost her way,
Walking home from school today.
The headlines read that only books remained.
Daddys little girl, vanished from his world.
(REPEAT CHORUS)
(But I fall)
Summers come again,
With wounds that never mend

Born Reckless
Written by John Mellencamp
Spend a lot of time tryin' to grow up
Guess I got a lot of growin' up to do
Used to tell me sit down, hey shut up
Guess they don't know what I was goin' through
But I've loved me some girls
And I've broken me some hearts
A cast in Nova in my own right
As I see here watching the sun coming up
I guess it's okay, yea its ok
To say good night
*Born reckless, born reckless
Born reckless (watch the family cry)
Cause I was born to be reckless
Till the day, I die
Well you know, I've been shoved around
Hey, but I've done my share of the shovin' too
I guess you get what you deserve
Yeah you get what's comin' to you
For the life of me, I don't understand
I don't understand, how I ever got you
Someone so warm to hold my hand
When this world has beat me back through
(*Repeat Chorus)
Well what I really want to say is
I guess I don't know, what it is I really wanna say
Anyway the thing is, I'm just surprised
That you're still here with me today
'Cause I've lied and I've cheated
And I've spit in your face
I've taken from you exactly what I need
But I want you to know
There's no one to take your place
How can we embrace love, how can we make love
At such an high rate of speed
(*Repeat Chorus)

Im Alright
Well its been a long time glad to see your face
I knew wed meet again another time another place
Cant believe its been so many years
Youd better grab a chair and a couple of beers
Lookin good in your three piece suit
You know I always knew youd take the business route
You were always the one to follow the light and you look like youre doing alright
Been singin for my rent and singin for my supper
Im above the below and below the upper
Im stuck in the middle where money gets tight
But I guess Im doin alright
Im all Im all Im alright
Its a beautiful day not a cloud in sight so I guess Im doin alright
O- oh o-oh, Im alright
Got a good old friend here with me tonight and I guess Im doin alright
Well we had a lot of dreams when we were younger
They thought we were crazy but we had the hunger
We kept a lot of friends skipped a lot of class
Been on top of the world and knocked on our
We lost touch, we lost in love
We lost our minds when things got tough but
Beatin time is a losin fight and I guess Im doin alright
Im all Im all Im alright
Its a beautiful day not a cloud in sight so I guess Im doin alright
O-oh o-oh Im alright
I got a good old friend here with me tonight and I guess Im doin alright
Well I guess Im doin alright
Well I hate to see this evening end
God only knows when Ill see you again
Just send a fax or send me a letter or give me a call that would even be better
Give the kids a kiss for me and say hello to the family
And tell them all my futures lookin bright
Well I miss em but Im doin alright
I said I miss em but Im doin alright
Im all Im all Im alright
Its a beautiful day not a cloud in sight so I guess Im doin alright
O-oh o-oh, Im alright
Got a good old friend here with me tonight and I guess Im doin alright
Well I guess Im doin alright
Im doin alright

I Got Lost In You
Somehow I found a way to get lost in you
Lost in your life and memories
I have no idea how I did it
I wasnt looking for this
I just wanted to get to know you more
But I guess in the end, we were meant to be?
I got lost on the way to you
On the way to being friends
Took the wrong path somewhere
And we became more
I think you got lost too?
You say you fell first,
i guess you did lose yourself somewhere
I dont care though
If I were to get lost in anyone
I am so glad it was you

Pigeons And Crumbs
Gotta get back
Gotta figure out a way
I'm losing - my senses to you
Where'd it go , the bluebird I should follow
Back home? But where is home?
Guess it won't amount to much
Won't be long before I crush
I'll stand in line
Don't believe a thing they say , today
Seems we all get lost amongst the pigeons and the crumbs
All alone
But I'm in a crowded room
I'm sinking , in quicksand tonight
You pick me up , and I shine across the sky till morning , then you
colour me in
Guess it wont amount
to much
Seems to me I've lost my touch
I'm back in line
Don't believe a thing they say today
Turn around and walk away
Everything will go your way , I pray
Seems we all get lost amongst the pigeons and the crumbs

Couldve Been You
Well it must have been good
cos you said it was love
I guess the day you left me
It wasnt good enough
Now youre calling my number
Say you wanna come back
Oh baby, baby its too late for that
cos when you see me
Therell be somebody new by my side
Somebody who is sure he is mine
Chorus:
When you see the smile on his face
Just remember baby
Couldve been you, couldve been you
When hes standing there in your place
I hate to say it baby
Couldve been you, couldve been you
Guess I should have been cool
Maybe I was too kind
When loving me was easy
You were hard to find
And when I cried over you babe
How the teardrops burned
Oh baby, baby now the tables turned
So if those tears start falling
When you see us walking by
I hope you wont forget who said goodbye
Chorus
Shouldve been you
But you threw it all away
Oh couldve been you
Standing here today
Couldve been you baby
So if those tears start falling
When you see us walking by
I hope you wont forget who said goodbye
You said goodbye

Another Perfect Day
i'm holding on waiting for your call
it's simple but i can't explain this
i'm sinking down i feel like i could die
i'm falling off i don't know why
[chorus:]
i still believe it when you say
it's another perfect day
another perfect day
i still believe it when you say
it's another perfect day
another perfect day
so i might try to leave it all behind
i know tommorow's not so bright now
i'll say goodbye cause nothing good can last
(you wear and figured no where fast)
and today i don't know how too keep it all inside
but i guess i'll let it slide
[repeat chorus]
today i don't know why
i thought that it was real
but i guess it's no big deal
[repeat chorus]
i don't know how
i don't know how
