Every Dog Will Have It's Day
Well they say
That every dog will have it's day
But it's truly a shame
What that dog became
Who he had to betray
It was never the same
He could never stay
He could only whimper away
Today, I don't want to be afraid
I've seen where the dog laid
Portrayed to wag it's tail
but between his legs he failed
Where he got derailed and went a stray
Well they say
That every dog will have it's day
But that day isn't today
So sit, boy, and stay

Stay Today
And I thought my heart was a great, great rock
And it would take me away to the others may
And I thought forgiveness would always stay
And now it just leaves every day
Can’t you stay just today?
Can’t you stay just today?
Can’t you stay just today?
And I will love you apart
And below all fear I love to go, to go
And I thought they cared what they thought
And the rest would leave every day, no laws
And no one would care, just be happy for a day
Can’t you stay just today?
Can’t you stay just today?
Can’t you stay just today?
And I will love you apart
And I will sing, sing
Sing your heart out
And I will sing, sing
Sing your heart out
Can’t you stay just today?
Can’t you stay just today?
Can’t you stay just today?
And I will love you apart

Three Nil
Chaos... is just the beginning
Every promise I made I'm ascending
Stab the knives in the middle of the monster
I'm getting tired of drowning the constant
Cry for help
It's debatablel
The only reason that you love me is
I'm hated by all
Come on!
Come see dysfunction
I guess we're gunna leave it
Open for discussion
Who am I?
Where am I going?
Maybe I'm looking in the wrong direction
Maybe I'm looking for any direction
This is not my war
This is not my fight
This is something more
This is not my life
This is not my revolution
This is not my convolution
This is not my expectation
This is not my desperation
Rolled up thoughts and tamed for the hell of it
Look at me, I am the glorified mahlcotect
Save me, save this
All I got to do is give up
And all is forgiven
I'm SICK
of being the butt of a cosmic joke
And I don't get the punchline
A million people lined up for miles
To see the great big mouth
SHUT UP AND APOLOGIZE!
This is not my war
This is not my fight
This is something more
This is not my life
This is not my revolution
This is not my convolution
This is not my only reason to question why
TODAY I'LL SAY GOODBYE!
GOODBYE!
Oh I didn't need to leave
To stay right here
TODAY I'LL SAY GOODBYE!
GOODBYE!
Oh I didn't need to leave
To stay right here
TODAY I'LL SAY GOODBYE!
GOODBYE!
Oh I didn't need to leave
To stay right here
TODAY I'LL SAY GOODBYE!
GOODBYE!
Oh I didn't need to leave
To stay right here
TODAY I'LL SAY GOODBYE!
I'm the pariah (Break Me)
I am the liar (Save Me)
I can take anything (Make Me)
Accuse me of everything (Kill Me)
Cut off my system (Slay Me)
Deny my existance (Waste Me)
I won't be afraid (Try Me)
I won't be unmade (Deny Me!)
COME ON!
Break it off
COME ON!
Buy the lie
COME ON!
Say it
SAY IT!
COME ON!
SAY GOODBYE!
GOODBYE!
Oh I didn't need to leave
To stay right here
TODAY I'LL SAY GOODBYE!
GOODBYE!
Oh I didn't need to leave
To stay right here
TODAY I'LL SAY GOODBYE!
GOODBYE!
Oh I didn't need to leave
To stay right here
TODAY I'LL SAY GOODBYE!
GOODBYE!
Oh I didn't need to leave
To stay right here
TODAY I'LL SAY GOODBYE!

Count Me Out Today
Today I don't want to be part
Of anything out there
Count me out today
Let the world
Turn without me
Let the birds sing
And the trees grow
And the people live
But not with me
Count me out today
Let the sun shine
On the roofs and the streets
Let the mountains stay proud
Let beauty stay beautiful
And ugly stay pitiful
But count me out today
I don't want to be part of it
No way

Stay
Well if Im sorry
Does that mean I have to change
cuz change does scare me
Id like to know how I would feel
And if youll have me
I wont leave or make you hurt
cuz I need you
And I hope youll let me
Stay - ay - ay
For today
Youll let me stay - ay - ay
For today
So when I see you
Please understand the way I think
Your smile it heals me
I never want to go away
Believe I love you
No matter how selfish I get
I know youll help me
The way I feel I wont forget
Youll let me stay
Youll let me stay - ay - ay
For today
I feel cold sometimes
I turn my faith to fear
I seem so lost sometimes
Can you find it?
Can you find it?
And if Im sorry
Does that mean I have to change
cuz change does scare me
Id like to know how I would feel
And if youll have me
I wont leave or make you hurt
cuz I need you
And I hope youll let me
Stay - ay - ay
For today
Youll let me stay - ay - ay
For today
Youll let me stay - ay - ay
For today
Youll let me stay - ay - ay
For today

Affirmations(2002-2004)
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 frown over the may-have-beens
Today, I won't cry over the should-have-beens
Today, I won't wonder about the could-have-beens
Today, I'll smile.......Today, I'll Laugh.... Today, I'll relax
Today, I won't feel alone because I don't see you
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 step up and take my place
Today, I won't think about what I've lost
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.

The last and final goodbye
It is here today.
Yes it now but here.
My last and final goodbye.
For my life I no longer can take.
Its all to much to bear.
Bastards have hurt me so much.
All the actions I did
To try and stay.
They all failed.
So I could not stay.
Please belive me I tryed to stay.
But I just couldnt fight any longer.
Please forgive my monnor of leaving.

Soldier Of Fortune
laid my weapons down
today, had one too many
days of spite.
laid my hands down
today, they carressed
one head too few.
laid my soul down
today, had I only been
wiser. Sooner...
Laid my body down
today. I ain't gonna be
nobody's soldier no more.

Peccavi Mea Maxima Culpa For friend JT Ellison
The song I came to sing today.Will not
be sung today or any day
by me. The words I have forgot.
Temptations led my mind to stray
too far from my appointed task.
I cannot sing for you today
nor can answer what you ask
I am ashamed and look away
because I know I’m in the wrong.
I have failed, failed utterly
and you may never hear the song
I beg forgiveness abjectly.
Some other singer may one day
sing what I should have sung today.

Today Is Monday
Today is Monday
What else can I say
Hate it as I may
I still need the pay
Today is Monday
Can't keep my mood at bay
So please stay away
If you don't want to be led astray
Today is Monday
Wish I can call it a day
Nothing I would say
Would make me happy and gay
Today is really Monday
When work cannot be shared
Nothing I can do but stare
Give me more if you dare
So..Monday please go away
I can't bear you to stay
Quickly come Saturday
Time for me to play

Waiting On Today
I'm wishin', searchin' for somethin'
and life is goin' on.
Time is tickin', and I'm sleepin'
I feel it comin' on, I feel it comin' on
We keep it comin' on, So keep livin' on, livin' on
Waiting On Today, Tell me it's ok
So I won't run away
Waiting On Today, Tell me that you'll stay
So I won't run away
I'm missin', days are back then
And life was goin' on, Alive and kickin'
Waitin' for meanin', and now were movin' on,
and now were movin' on, We keep it movin' on,
So keep livin' on, livin' on
Waiting On Today, Tell me it's ok
So I won't run away
Waiting On Today, Tell me that you'll stay
So I won't run away
Waiting On Today, Tell me it's ok
So I won't run away
Waiting On Today, Tell me that you'll stay
So I won't run away
I feel it comin' on
And we run
And now we're movin' on
And we run
I feel it comin' on
And we run
And now we're movin' on
And we run
I feel it comin' on
I gotta join it now!
And now we're movin' on
I gotta go right now!
I feel it comin' on
I gotta live it now!
So keep livin' on, livin' on
Waiting On Today, Tell me it's ok
So I won't run away
Waiting On Today, Tell me that you'll stay
So I won't run away
Waiting On Today, Tell me it's ok
So I won't run away
Waiting On Today, Tell me that you'll stay
So I won't run away

Stay Beautiful
Stay Beautiful
Even if we don’t stay friends
Stay Beautiful
Even if we fall apart
Stay Beautiful
Because you’re going to be someone in life
Stay Beautiful
For me or if not for me
Stay Beautiful
For yourself or for the people you love
Just Stay Beautiful
Because someday you’re going to find the one
You really truly love and she’ll be telling you
To Stay Beautiful too
Stay Beautiful
Because you’re an amazing person and
That’ll never change and
Stay Beautiful
Because you’re one and in a million and
Stay Beautiful
Just to stay the beautiful person
You are today and
Stay Beautiful
Because that’s who you are
You’re Beautiful

Its A Lovely Day Today
Its a lovely day today
So whatever youve got to do
Youve got a lovely day to do it in, thats true
And I hope whatever youve got to do
Is something that can be done by two
For Id really like to stay
Its a lovely day today
And whatever youve got to do
Id be so happy to be doing it with you
But if youve got something that must be done
And it can only be done by one
There is nothing more to say
Except its a lovely day for saying
Its a lovely day

Its a lovely day today
And whatever Ive got to do
Ive got a lovely day to do it in, thats true
But perhaps whatever Ive got to do
Is something that can be done by two
If it is then you could stay
Its a lovely day today
But youre probably busy too
So I suppose theres nothing we can do
For if youve got something that must be done
And it can only be done by one
There is nothing more to say
Except its a lovely day for saying
Its a lovely day
[3]
Its a lovely day today
If youve something that must get done
Now dont forget two heads are better than just one
And besides Im certain if you knew me
Youd find Im very good company
Wont you kindly let me stay?

Its a lovely day today

Six cheap people in an empty hotel
Every last one with a story to tell
Give them all pills, so their heads wont swell
We were borne to a woman whose husband did quite well
Oh sunshine, shone brighty
Through my windoew today
Could have tripped out quite easy but I decided to stay
Hold ouit your hand said whitey with the blame
Gonna bring you up so you really dig the pain
Take you under my wings so youll never be the same
Cos your wife is so much older and both her legs are lame
A sunbeam shone brightly through my window today
Could have gone 20 miles but I decided to stay
All my flock has packed up and flocked back to hell
Open up the windows so the place dont start to smell
Carry on with what your doing cos you dont to it that well
Ive been umpteen different people and no one else can tell
Sunshine shone brightly through my asshole today
Could have tripped out quite easy but I decided to stay
To stay a while
Come up and see me make me smile
Come up and see me make me smile

Undressed
Let me help you get undressed
Im no better than the rest
And I know you can see through
All Ive said today
But for an hour maybe two
It will just be me and you
We can find a place where no-one
Ever wants to go
I can make it if you stay
I cant take it if you go
Ive had too many one night stands
Ive had too many broken plans
Now when I need someone I find
Myself alone
And I know its the same for you
Youve told me all that youve been
Through, we can put the past behind
All well share today
I can make it if you stay
I cant take it if you go
Let me help you get undressed
Im no better that the rest
And I know you can see through
All Ive said today
But for an hour maybe two
Lets pretend Im the man for you
It will almost seem like nothing
Ever, ever changed
I can make it if you stay
I cant take it if you go
I can make it if you stay
I cant take it if you go

Let us love most about today
A golden day is today
For it is a fact today
