Over Draining Bottles
Drained bottles and high spirits
Talk eloquent and confuse words
Underneath my own smoke
I stumbled and struggled to get back
On the verge of ecstasy
I dragged and puffed one more time
Two, three more times -
A clear vision occurred to me
An extinct feeling
As I watch you glow beside me
The pixels get clearer
Vivid like the vodka in your hands
And clouded like cigarette kisses
A right-wrong situation:
Right feeling
Wrong disposition
Trapped and stranded in a vortex
Beaten down in the vertigo
I would never know
So I let the words go and spill out
My mouth mumbles violins
Benumbed by the tirade of my actions
Like a proud thunder,
You burst in roll of laughter
Another missed target
Treacherously valiant heart
Drinks without chaser,
Lit another joint
Another night to brood and burn.

What A Feeling
Nows the time when this will turn to fruit
All the poppies gonna push up through
And I can see the ground below
The places that I know, disappearing
And I can see the winter fade
I dont feel so afraid its clearing
Oh, what a feeling
Oh, what a feeling
Oh, what a feeling
Life is only half way in our hands
Years have passed while I was making plans
And I could never find the words
I always felt absurd, and always outside
But now I know I shouldnt care
Theres a song already there
Waiting inside
Oh, what a feeling
Oh, what a feeling
Oh, what a feeling
And I can feel the crock unwind
The parts of me I tied are running
And all the birds are in my head
The laughter that was dead is coming
Oh, what a feeling
Oh, what a feeling
Oh, what a feeling
The laughter that was dead is coming
Oh, what a feeling
The laughter that was dead is coming

Good Times
Something has stuck in underneath my skin
Eyes all looking in for something within
Somewhere in here
Now everything I say gives this all away
Senses deadened again
Nothing lives today
Not in here
Here in your head
Careful what youre feeling on the inside
You should try to remember the good times and the high life
Are you feeling alright?
Felt that I belonged
And now I feel that gone
Where it all went wrong
I traced it all along
Back here again
There was something calling me to negativity
Dark covering me
Shrouding every scene Im cast in
Careful what youre feeling on the inside
You should try to remember the good times and the high life
Are you feeling alright?
Careful when you're feeling out of your mind
You should try to remember the strong lines in the spotlight
Until you're feeling alright
Please answer
Im calling just to find out
If you could be there for me when I crack
The answer came
I found it buried in the trash there
I saw it stare
Careful what youre feeling on the inside
You should try to remember the good times and the high life
Are you feeling alright?
Careful when you're feeling out of your mind
You should try to remember the strong lines in the spotlight
Until you're feeling alright
Careful what youre feeling on the inside
You should try to remember the good times and the high life
Are you feeling alright?

Mighty Fine Blues
Feeling mighty fine
Feeling mighty fine at this time, yes I am
Feeling mighty fine
Feeling mighty fine at this time, yes indeed
Walk down any street
Pass the people you meet
What is it about this place that keeps you on your feet
Feeling mighty fine
Feeling mighty fine at this time, yes I am
Feeling mighty fine
Feeling mighty fine at this time, yes indeed
Night is coming down
Closer to the ground
Gonna have a little fun while I'm still around
Feeling mighty fine
Feeling mighty fine at this time, yes I am
Feeling mighty fine
Feeling mighty fine at this time, yes indeed
Don't believe the words they say to you when their soul's hurting
Don't believe a word they say about me because I'm feeling mighty fine
Think I gotta go
Think I'm gonna die
Oh my God somethings wrong
The end is coming near
because I'm
Feeling mighty fine
feeling mighty fine at this time, yes I am
Feeling mighty fine
Feeling mighty fine at this time, yes I am, yes I am

Not The Moment
I can't believe what you're saying about me
I can't believe it's true
You know you never should doubt me
And take this attitude
You say there's something between us
Something just ain't right
But every time I ask you to tell me why
You say it's not the moment
You say it's not the moment
You say you're tired of walking on eggshells
And falling in between
That I'm two-timing you but you know quite well
That's just not my scene
And now my friends are starting to call me
They say there's something wrong
Ah, but you just continue to stall me
You say it's not the moment
You say...
Yes we need to talk this through
'Cause I do depend on you
So let it out and try to clear the air
I've got nothing I should hide
I'm burning up inside
But you just act like you don't even care
Oh well I know sometimes it ain't easy
I know you're feeling bad
But you know it's the wrong time to tease me
It just gets me mad
I'm going to find out sooner or later
Just what you're trying to say
So when I ask you now for just one more time
Don't say it's not the moment
Don't say...
Yes we need to talk this through, etc.
Told you I would be your friend
Be there to the very end
But you had to let me down
And go spreading dirty words around

Something So Right
Words & music by paul simon
Youve got the cool water
When the fever runs high
Youve got the look of lovelight in your eyes
And I was in crazy motion
til you calmed me down
It took a little time
But you calmed me down
When something goes wrong
Im the first to admit it
Im the first to admit it
And the last one to know
When something goes right
Well its likely to lose me, mm
Its apt to confuse me
Its such an unusual sight
Oh, I cant, I cant get used to something so right
Something so right
Theyve got a wall in china
Its a thousand miles long
To keep out the foreigners they made it strong
And Ive got a wall around me
That you cant even see
It took a little time
To get next to me
When something goes wrong
Im the first to admit it
Im the first to admit it
And the last one to know
When something goes right
Well its likely to lose me, mm
Its apt to confuse me
Because its such an unusual sight
Oh, I cant, I cant get used to something so right
Something so right
Some people never say the words I love you
Its not their style
To be so bold
Some people never say the words I love you
But like a child theyre longing to be told, mm
When something goes wrong
Im the first to admit it
Im the first to admit it
And the last one to know
When something goes right
Well its likely to lose me, mm
Its apt to confuse me
Because its such an unusual sight
I swear, I cant, I cant get used to something so right
Something so right

If I Could Only Find The Words
So many songs talk about love
Written by those who never
Felt its touch
And then there are lines
With poetry rhyme
By those who have known but
Never said much
And here I am
Trying to get you make into my world
Trying to get that feeling known to you
If I could only find the words
Typical lines
Usual games
I new what to say then
To get my own way
I knew it was wrong
I acted untrue
But I would trade forever
For a yesterday with you
And here I am trying to get
You back into my world
Trying to get that feeling known to you
If I could only find the words
If I could only find the words
I knew it was wrong
I acted untrue
But I would trade forever
For a yesterday with you
La la la la la
La la la la la
La la la la la
If I could only find the words

I Promise, I Promise
I promise, I promise
My soul intentions are good
But I'm getting the feeling
I'm being misunderstood
I wear my heart on my sleeve
Like its the new fashion
Rhyme is more than words
They're a passion
Most times, I'm left to wonder
Like the 'Wonder' bread
'Maybe I'm doing the wrong thing..'
'You're my inspiration, ' she said
I'm no inspiration
I am no reward
My words are talk, it's cheap
And it's all I can afford
I'm no inspiration
I'll leave that to Lance
Defeated 3 kinds of cancer
Then won 'Le Tour de France'
I promise, I promise
I can never be that
Never say can't
So i can never be that
'But you're different, you are'
'You don't see that far,
That or you're blind'
Maybe I'm just losing my mind
Mind wishes I can 9 lives
8 would be in the clouds
But I'll have to keep one
And just say, 'I'm proud'
'I searched, I found them'
'What? My words? My talk? '
Well heres another one
No glory, just a gun
I promise, I promise
I live for frustration
Keep giving me my doubt
So I have my inspiration

This Is My Heart Talking Now
(lewis anderson/jason sellers)
I know how much Ive hurt you
Trying to stand my ground
Raising my voice building defenses
While trying to tear yours down
I want you so much, I need you so near
Please dont give up til I make that clear
Cause
This is my heart talking now
No anger, no ego, no pride
This is my soul reaching out
With all that Im feeling inside
The words that Ive spoken
They left your heart broken
They came out wrong somehow
But this is my heart
This is my heart talking now
Maybe youre certain its over
Maybe I cant change your mind
Mabe me saying Im sorry
Will just seem a waste of time
But I couldnt bare if you walked away
Not knowing for sure that
I love you this way
This is my heart talking now
No anger, no ego, no pride
This is my soul reaching out
With all that Im feeling inside
The words that Ive spoken
They left your heart broken
They came out wrong somehow
But this is my heart
This is my heart talking now
This is my heart
This is my heart talking now

Book with No End and No Beginning
We don't know how it started
Then realized we have left a couple chapter behind
When we did it wrong?
Is it a right way now to flip another page forward?
And this strange relation is not bothered by question anymore
We're trapped in the middle of story
We're trying to turn back and roll it again
But we only read the same words over and over
Where is the real truth that hiding somewhere in our heart?
Somewhere between the fight and comeback tears
Is better to close this book and wondering it's just a dream?
So why we don't see it's going to a clear conclusion
Why we can't say good bye to each other
Tired about every way to hurt and hate and forget
Are we missed a few blank page?
Telling the dark secret we both hiding
And the passion with sweet words are just illusion
Because what we own simply a shadow of our loneliness
The story must have an ending
But we don't even have a beginning

My Solution
Well I feel theres something wrong with my life
But thats the way it should be
I really hate it when I lie to you
But what does the truth mean to me
Well what went wrong
Your back is turned again
Is this the beginning or the end
Is this all wrong
You are more than a friend
Such a position that Im in
Well you know
Im trying so hard to live my life
Without you
And i
Tried so hard
I got you now
Inside
My heart it kills
Fueled by your love
In the end
Ill call your name
Im letting go
Its time for you to know
That all this time Ive been so wrong
Im letting go
The times more fast than slow
And everything is there for you
Well you know
When I go away from you
I lose control
My body
Is feeling cold
Like a winter day
Then I close my eyes
A picture so clear
Then I close my eyes

Stranded
Dog night Im so alone
A million miles out on my own
No one to talk no one to care
Searching for someone they could be anywhere
Magic and madness its so very strange
Soemtimes I think its all pre-arranged
That same old feeling hits me again
Just the beginning but its feels like the end
Oh feel like Im stranded out here
Oh I think I might disappear
No dont leave me stranded out here
Oh its just the loneliness I fear
Lonely window fading star
You never felt so near yet so far
Tried to forget you the best that I could
Dont try to find me it wont do any good
Im caught in a dream so hard to locate
Im just a captive of my own fate
No turning back no not tonight
Youre moving on way out of sight
Oh feel like Im stranded out here
Oh I think I might disappear
No dont leave me stranded out here
Oh its just the loneliness I fear
Stranded (8 times)
Oh I feel like Im stranded out here
Same as before
Stranded (8 times)

Still Breathing
Home
It's not brick or stone
A comfort in the fire light
not in that sense anyway
Dreams
If only I had known
That these things always seem
So much clearer at a distance
I'm walking out of this town
I'm never going back there
I'm never going back there
I'll burn the place to the ground
I'm never going back there
I'm never going back there again
Words
Only could break that ring
You know the words still sting
So much harder than the blows ever did
Hearts
Though it's hard and violent
My head is cool and quiet
As the Ashes that fall from the sky
I'm walking out of this town
I'm never going back there
I'm never going back there
I'll burn the place to the ground
I'm never going back there
I'm never going back there again
Now
I know this shattered feeling
Trampled I'm still breathing
I'm just waiting for a good day
I'm walking out of this town
I'm never going back there
I'm never going back there
I'll burn the place to the ground
I'm never going back there
I'm never going back there again

I Need Your Love
Cant help this feeling
Cant help this feeling
I cant believe its open for discussion
Weve said our goodbyes
Ive been a fool not to see the repercussions
Youve had in my life
Im at the point of no return
Ive finally crossed the line
Dont want to stop and watch the bridges burn
cause I cant stand to see you stay behind
I need your love
I want you every way
I need your love
Cant help this feeling coming back everyday
I stayed around hoping youd discover
How much there was to lose
I spelled it out, I led you to the water
But youre too blind to choose
I gave it everything and more to make it
Ive waited for so long
I saw the chance to run and had to take it
But somethings missing and I know its wrong
I need your love
I want you every way
And I need your love
Cant help this feeling coming back everyday
Ive passed the point of no return
And all the tears have dried
Dont want to stop and watch the bridges burn
cause I keep wishing I was on your side
I need your love
I want you every way
And I need your love
Cant help this feeling
I need your love
I want you every way
I need your love
Cant help this feeling coming back everyday

Crack The Code
I want the words
something you havent heard
will I find them and
will I have what it takes to say them
in the world beside
this one there are no lies and
no suspicion
only dreams without end
You gotta feel what I mean
Look into my eyes and know
Im trying to come clean
But I stumble every time
And then the words they escape
fail to take shape
Its all in the code now (come again)
Feel what I mean
Look into my eyes and know
Im trying to come clean
But I stumble every time
And then the words they escape
fail to take shape
Its all in the code now
Will you let me retract let me take it back
Sometimes my words lack and my mind flies off the track
What Im trying to convey is miles from what I say
And you slip away
In life there are times
when nothing will rhyme
there are days I slip
when I know I should climb
breakin the vows I swore Id never break
a harsh word a white lie easy to mistake
where have you been
havent you noticed
theres no map that exists
to point us out of this
my heart was the target
it found your arrow
baby you know I want to be
your straight and narrow
I been trying to transmit a feeling
I been hoping you receive what Im revealing
See the main thing is hang with me and relate
As we communicate watch out
Fenced in like a dog between houses
Balled up by the trouble my mouth gets
Wrapped up in the things that I dont know
dont you know
Hoping that you crack the code oh
The first to crack the code
(You may not think Im ready to have your love again) oh oh
(You may not think Im ready)
You are the first to crack my code
I want the words
something you havent heard
will I find them and
will I have what it takes to say them
You gotta gotta feel what I mean
Look into my eyes and know
Im trying to come clean
But I stumble every time
And then the words they escape
fail to take shape
Its all in the code now
Didnt I know Im wrong wrong wrong when you knew
You didnt have to give me so long long long to see through
Not predictable what I will do but you know
Cause you cracked the code
Your body is a country
that you know Ill return to
craving like a family heirloom
that I am into
no baby how could I follow
everything you do
just remember when we touch
I feel so renewed
The first to understand me that would be you
It cant work if we cant be open and true
The best thing to happen to me let it be told
That would be the moment that you cracked my code oh oh
The first to crack the code
(You may not think Im ready to have your love again) oh oh
(You may not think Im ready)
You are the first to crack my code

Words I Couldn't Say
Words I couldn't say
Out of my mouth was so hard
I was just speechless when it came to you
I regret myself for not saying what I want to say too you
Now you are annoy me and just looking at me all sad
I will never get that year back to do it right again
I will never know what you really feel about me all because
Words I couldn't say
This feeling inside of me keep hurting me because I'm feeling guilty
This making me more stress
I have this in my hand
I let slip away all because I don't want to do at that time
No second chance, or a back up plan
What am I supposed to do?
Now you won't say a word and avoiding me
Words I couldn't say

Old Friend
Remember the days,
silent words and joyful smiles,
of shy glances and tender hands.
Remember the times
of the picture shows,
and of almost back rows.
Remember too,
understanding looks and feeling same,
not of love, but of friendship bloom.
Now all gone,
as you are to me,
missed are the words you did not say.

Avoiding Life
what can i do?
can i back out?
i don't want to talk,
you don't need to know,
but, at the same time,
running away from your problem,
only causes more,
is that what you want?
to go down that same road,
because you want to hide,
and pretend there's nothing wrong,
you know that's the wrong choice,
but, it don't help you,
what can you do?
everything is too much,
feeling presured to talk,
it something you have to do,
but, in the back of you mind,
it's the hardest thing to do,
but, really,
what can you do?

Sidewalk Talk
Watch where you walk 'cause the sidewalks talk
And you can't keep a secret from the ground beneath you
Step very lightly on the earth below
Or before you know it everyone will know
Streets were paved with a thousand eyes
And try as you may you can't disguise
There's only two things that you can't hide from
That's you and the ground you're walking on
Chorus:
Watch where you walk, 'cause the sidewalks talk
You better watch what you do, what you do
'cause the sidewalk talk can get carried away
You better watch what you say, what you say
Think when you speak 'cause you gotta 'long the street
They can read what you say so you gotta stay away
From words that sting, words are not true
And the things you say make a fool of you
Little white lies make the sidewalk cry
And you can betray with the things you say
Words won't last when you say 'em too fast
And you've been mislead by the things you've said
(chorus)
Intermediate:
When you're living on the street
Life can be full of misery
Find a place to call your own
Make your heart into a home
You can do it, uh huh
(repeat 3 times)
You can do it
After every word there's a place that heard
Every time your shoe hits the avenue
And when you've gone they'll sing a song
Of the stories you told when you felt so bold
You better think twice when you cross the ice
Everything you do comes back to you
When you're shedding a tear sidewalks will hear
When your laughter's true they'll run with you
(chorus)
(intermediate)
You can do it, uh huh
(repeat 3 times)
You can do it
(repeat 3 times)
(chorus)
Sidewalk talk
(repeat 3 times)
Let me tell ya 'bout sidewalk talk
Sidewalk talk
Sidewalk talk
Sidewalk talk
(repeat)
Watch out for sidewalk talk
Sidewalk talk
Sidewalk talk
Sidewalk talk
Let me tell ya 'bout
Let me tell ya 'bout
Let me tell ya 'bout
Let me tell ya 'bout sidewalk talk
