W. O. E.
Caught beneath visions of hatred
Drowning fast in sounds of silence
Caught between divisions of hate
Cant breathe under this weight of existence
Chorus:
Too strong,
Too strong for you
Too strong,
Too strong for you
Repeat 1st verse, chorus

Endless Stream Of Tears
I cry awake at night and hug my pillow
And pray that I will die before I wake
No such luck
Another day of cryin
Dont know how much more my old heart can break
Flooded with these memories and emotions
The tears like rain keep on falling down
They say that Ill forget
But my face is just as wet
As it was the day you left this town
Chorus:
Drowning in this endless, endless
Drowning in an endless stream of tears
Its relentless and Im defenseless
Drowning in an endless stream of tears
I cant believe that I can talk about it
I never thought Id live to see this day
But a broken heart wont kill you
You just want to die
But you have to go on livin anyway
I feel it through and through
And Ive never been so blue
And I cried a river over you
Repeat chorus
Oh, Im drowning in this endless, endless
Drowning in this endless, endless
Drowning in this endless, endless
Drowning in this endless stream of tears

Deep Water
Is it a crime for me to be feeling this way
I'm going out of my mind and there's
no change from a runaway love
Is it a dream (is it a dream)
That I'm throwing in the wishing well
I'm losing control my body and soul
(body and soul)Standing here waiting
for a train that may never come
I saw the signs I read the books
I should of had a second look
ut you caught me dreaming
nd there were times you'd come around a
we'd agreed to just be friends tell
me who it's fooling oooo
Deep water I'm drowning
Deep water I'm slowly drowning in deeper
Deep water I'm drowning
Deep water I'm slowly drowning in deeper
what do I say(what can I say)
where words have failed me before
what do i do when i'm feeling so blue
and there's no place for me to run and hide
I saw the sun inside your smile and wished
for then just awhile cause boy you caught
me dreaming a giant step into the dark
and we through caution to the wind tell
me who we're fooling oooo
Deep water I'm drowning
deep water i'm slowly drowning in deeper
Deep water i'm drowning
deep water i'm slowly drowning deeper
i'm drowning
deeper deeper i'm drowning in deeper
oh i saw the signs i read the book
i should have had a second look
cause boy you caught me dreaming
and there are times youd come around
and we'd agreed to just be friends tell me who it's fooling
Deep water i'm drowning
deep water i'm slowly drowning in deeper
deep water i'm drowning
deep water i'm slowly drowning in deeper
deeper deeper deeper
i'm drowning in deeper
(drowning in drowning in drowning in)
deeper deeper deeper
so deep is the water

Drowning
Everything is so complex
Everyday is like a test full of opsticals
That almost seem impossible
And I'm thinking just another breath not a minute left.
How long have I been drinking?
Pass the glass pint hit the flash light now break it.
People say I'm a star but I still think ill never make it.
And I'm thinking just another prayer not a second left.
I feel there's something missing
Sometimes I hate that chaos surrounds me when all the answers I see go around me.
Am I drowning?
Am I fading away?
OR am I living up to all your dreams that made me this way?
Am I drowning?
Am I drowning?
Am I drowning?
Am I drowning?
I've been to hell and back looking for the answers to life.
Looking at myself trying to get things right.
And I'm feeling just another breath not a minute left.
I feel the darkness lifting.
There was a time
That I questioned if Id ever be alright.
Running getting high staying trapped by sleepless nights.
And I'm thinking just another breath not a minute left.
I feel there's something missing.
I'm running from myself and all the things I don't like.
Living every night like it's the last night.
And I'm thinking just another prayer not a second left.
I need to stop resisting.
Sometimes I hate that chaos surrounds me when all the answers I see go around me.
Am I drowning?
Am I fading away?
OR am I living up to all your dreams that made me this way?
Am I drowning?
Am I drowning?
Am I drowning?
Am I drowning?
Drowning in the drama lost in the lies trapped by the currents of life caught in the rip tides.
Drowning in the drama lost in the lies trapped by the currents of life caught in the rip tides.
Drowning in the drama lost in the lies trapped by the currents of life caught in the rip tides.
Drowning in the drama lost in the lies trapped by the currents of life caught in the rip tides.
Am I drowning?
Am I drowning?
Am I drowning?
Am I drowning?
Sometimes I hate that chaos surrounds me when all the answers I see go around me.
Am I drowning?
Am I fading away?
OR am I living up to all your dreams that made me this way?
Am I drowning?
Am I drowning?
Am I drowning?
Am I drowning?
Drowning in the drama lost in the lies trapped by the currents of life caught in the rip tides.

River Of Tears
Its three miles to the river
That would carry me away,
And two miles to the dusty street
That I saw you on today.
Its four miles to my lonely room
Where I will hide my face,
And about half a mile to the downtown bar
That I ran from in disgrace.
Lord, how long have I got to keep on running,
Seven hours, seven days or seven years?
All I know is, since youve been gone
I feel like Im drowning in a river,
Drowning in a river of tears.
Drowning in a river.
Feel like Im drowning,
Drowning in a river.
In three more days, Ill leave this town
And disappear without a trace.
A year from now, maybe settle down
Where no one knows my face.
I wish that I could hold you
One more time to ease the pain,
But my times run out and I got to go,
Got to run away again.
Still I catch myself thinking,
One day Ill find my way back here.
Youll save me from drowning,
Drowning in a river,
Drowning in a river of tears.
Drowning in a river.
Feels like Im drowning,
Drowning in the river.
Lord, how long must this go on?
Drowning in a river,
Drowning in a river of tears.

Going Under
Now I will tell you what Ive done for you
50,000 tears I cry
Screaming,
Deceiving,
And bleeding for you
And you still wont hear me
....go away....
Dont want your hand this time
Ill save myself
Maybe Ill wake up for once (wake up for once)
Not tormented daily defeated by you
Just when I thought Id reach the bottom
[chorus]
I dive again
Im going under (going under)
Drowning with you (drowning with you)
Im falling forever (falling forever)
Ive got to break through
Im, going under
Blurring and stirring the truth that comes out
(I dont know whats real and whats not)
Always confusing the thoughts is my head
So I cant trust myself anymore
I dive again
Im going under (going under)
Drowning with you (drowning with you)
Im falling forever (falling forever)
Ive got to break through,
Im, so go on and scream
Scream at me, so far away
I wont be broken again
Ive got to breathe
I cant keep going under
I dive again
Im going under (going under)
Drowning with you (drowning with you)
Im falling forever (falling forever)
Ive got to break through,
Im, going under (going under)
Going under (drowning with you)
Im going under

Have A Nice Day
'Help, help, ' said a man. 'I'm drowning.'
'Hang on, ' said a man from the shore.
'Help, help, ' said the man. 'I'm not clowning.'
'Yes, I know, I heard you before.
Be patient dear man who is drowning,
You, see I've got a disease.
I'm waiting for a Doctor J. Browning.
So do be patient please.'
'How long, ' said the man who was drowning. 'Will it take for the Doc to arrive? '
'Not very long, ' said the man with the disease. 'Till then try staying alive.'
'Very well, ' said the man who was drowning. 'I'll try and stay afloat.
By reciting the poems of Browning
And other things he wrote.'
'Help, help, ' said the man with the disease, 'I suddenly feel quite ill.'
'Keep calm.' said the man who was drowning, ' Breathe deeply and lie quite still.'
'Oh dear, ' said the man with the awful disease. 'I think I'm going to die.'
'Farewell, ' said the man who was drowning.
Said the man with the disease, 'goodbye.'
So the man who was drowning, drownded
And the man with the disease past away.
But apart from that,
And a fire in my flat,
It's been a very nice day.

Drowning In It
Why are we here I always seem to ask myself
Question awerted by the thought of someone else
And Im hopelessly done with the things that I have tried to do
Should I give up and let the way just fall on me
Day by day I struggle endlessly
Theres nothing right
Theres nothing good about this
Theres nothing right
Theres nothing great about this life
And I will never know
How its supposed to be
[chorus:]
I keep fighting with the visions inside head
I used to feel so much better than today
I should be laughing but instead Im just a mess
Its not right, its not right to feel this way
I keep fighting with the visions inside head
I turn how much I could take a things
And now I feel Im so drowning in it
Its not right, its not right to feel this way
So youre gone what are we supposed to do
I told myself not to care a true and true
And all this times seems so wasted
When end in end and it was all for nothing
Theres nothing right
cauz Im in a fake madnessy
Theres nothing right
cauz Im in a fake misery
Theres nothing right
Theres nothing good about this
Theres nothing right
Theres nothing great about this life
And you will always be
Another fake part of me
[chorus]
Why do I always feel this way
And why do I always feel this way [x2]
And why do [x4]
[chorus]
I keep hiding but drowning in it
And I keep hiding but drowning in it [x2]
And I keep, and I keep drowning in it [x2]

The Arms Of Orion (feat. Sheena Easton)
Orion's arms are wide enough 2 hold us both 2gether
Although we're worlds apart, I'd cross the stars 4 U
In the heart of a sleepless moon, I'll be with U 4ever
This is my destiny till my life is through
CHORUS:
The Arms of Orion, that's where I wanna be
Since U've been gone
I've been searching 4 a lover in the Sea of Tranquility
Drowning without U here, my dear
When I am lost or feeling lonely, I just look 2 heaven
I find my comfort there
God only knows where U are 2night
God only knows where U are 2night
Maybe time will tell me
Till then I close my eyes, say a prayer 4 U
(Say a prayer 4 U 2)
CHORUS
Orion's heart is bright enough 2 shine on both of us
The constellations never fail 2 light the way 4 love
Orion's arms are wide enough 2 hold us both 2gether
Although we're worlds apart (I'd cross the stars 4 U)
I'd cross the stars 4 U
CHORUS
(Oh)
The Arms of Orion, that's where I wanna be
Since U've been gone I've been drowning (Lost)
In the Sea of Tranquility (Lonely)
Drowning without U here (Baby)
My dear (Drowning without U, oh)
Arms of Orion
That's where I wanna be (Where I)
That's where I wanna be (The Arms of Orion) {x2}
Since U've been gone, babe
Since U've been gone, I've been drowning (Drowning)
Drowning, drowning without your love

You're Drowning Me Enough
You're drowning me enough.
And I've got open arms.
You're drowning me enough.
I'm swimming in your charms.
You're drowning me enough.
And I've got open arms.
You're drowning me enough.
Do your rescue on another!
You're drowning me enough.
I'm choked up and it suffocates.
Drowning me enough.
There's others who are waiting.
You're drowning me enough.
All your love has stirred up waves...
I'm pouring buckets from my cups!
You're drowning me enough.
And I've got open arms.
You're drowning me enough.
I'm swimming in your charms.
You're drowning me enough.
And I've got open arms.
You're drowning me enough.
Do your rescue on another!
You're drowning me enough.
I'm choked up and it suffocates.
Drowning me enough.
Do your rescue on another!
All your love has stirred up waves...
I'm pouring buckets from my cups!
You're drowning me enough.
Do your rescue on another!
All that loving has me full,
I want to throw it up!

Mona Lisa
[Intro (spoken)]
This is the story about... Mona Lisa
That was her name...
Mona Lisa
[verse 1]
Ladies and Gentlemen, I've got a little story to tell
About Mona Lisa, and how she suddenly fell (huh)
See everyone knew her, they knew her oh so well
Now I am taking over, to release her from her spell
[chorus]
She's unforgettable, she was a legend though
It's kinda pitiful that she's gone
It's kinda incredible
She's so unpredictable (yeah, yeah)
It's time to let her go (yeah) cuz she's gone, cuz she's gone, cuz she's gone
[Verse 2]
She was taken under, drowning in her sea (huh)
Running like an angel, she was crying but could not see (oh no!)
Now see everyone's watching, as she starts to fall
Now don't have a breakdown
You will hit the freakin wall
[repeat chorus]
[verse 3]
Now Ladies does that make you cryyyyyyy? (huh)
Now Fellas you have to say goodbyeeeee
Cuz Mona Lisa's got to flyyyyy
Everyone, may we have a moment of silence? Right Here.

Dont pretend youre sorry
I know youre not
I know youve got the power
To make me weak inside
And girl you leave me breathless
But its okay
Cause you are my survival
Now hear me say
I cant imagine
Life without your love
And even forever
Dont seem like long enough
Every time I breathe I take you in
Then my heart beats again
Baby I cant help it
Keep me drowning in your love
And every time I try to rise above
Im swept away by love
Baby I cant help it
Keep me drowning in your love
Maybe Im a drifter
Maybe not
Cause I have known the saftey
Of floating freely in your arms
I dont need another life line
Its not for me
Cause only you can save me
Oh, cant you see
I cant imagine
Life without your love
And even forever
Dont seem like long enough
(dont seem like long enough yeah)
Cause every time I breathe I take you in
Then my heart beats again
Baby I cant help it
Keep me drowning in your love
And every time I try to rise above
Im swept away by love
Baby I cant helo it
Keep me drowning in your love
Go on and pull me under
Cover me with dreams, yeah
Love me mouth to mouth now
That you know I cant resist
Cause your the air that I breathe
Every time I breathe I take you in
(cause every time I breathe yeah)
Then my heart beats again
Baby I cant help it

Keep me drowning in your love
And every time I try to rise above
Im swept away by love
Baby I cant help it
Keep me drowning in your love
Baby I cant help it
Keep me drowning in your love

Youve got me drowning
Keep drowning in your love

Venice Drowning
Venice breathing, shiny shoe mirrors of sex and violence,
In the purple evening silence, venice dreaming of a partner.
Fill your arms with breasts of marble, from the cradle to the table
Coax this naked treasure, from your saviour.
Come swim into my love
Come swim into my life
Divine blasphemer tempting, holly beads of jism
With a scarlet catechism, her lips will answer
(ah, her lips will answer)
How to be, the perfect stranger, the perfect lover - wanting
And as youll discover - giving, and as youll discover - being.
Come swim into my love
Come swim into my life
Enter this sublime corrosion
Venice drowning in emotion
-
(the body stirs, and is reanimated, only briefly,
But then life is very brief)
(come swim into my life)
(come swim into my life)
(ah-ahh ah-ah ah-ah-whoo heyyey)
Venice drowning!
Venice drowning!
Venice drowning!
Venice drowning!

Lost At Sea
Can we try to salvage what we can
From the weight of water and sand
And lifts us up again
Well this world is spinning out of control
Im bracing just to keep hold
As the clouds move in
With a driving wind so strong
Could it be that were lost at sea
And were drowning under the stars
Up to me I would ride this wave
Before we drift too far
What a lonely way to be
Lost at sea
Like a star in a night filled with tears
Make the sadness disappear
cause youre all that I hold dear
Well you walk
Never ever looking back
One defends and one attacks
Theres a thousand reasons to begin again
Could it be that were lost at sea
And were drowning under the stars
Up to me I would ride this wave
Before we drift too far
Take my hand, come to me
Save a life, rescue you, rescue me
Could it be that were lost at sea
And were drowning under the stars
Up to me I would ride this wave
Before we drift too far
Could it be that were lost at sea
And were drowning under the stars
Up to me I would ride this wave
Before we drift too far

Dirty Drowning Man
I'm a dog, a dirty flying dog. I drink Campari with marinated wild hog. I've no sense, I like electric fence. I put barbed wire in my pants and do a celtic dance.
But when I can, I'm a giving man. I'll flip you out the fire and back up into the frying pan.
And if you're down looking like you're gonna drown. Of all your friends I'm the one who's most apt to stick around.
I'm a drowning man. Who will save this drowning man. Who will save this drowning man. Who will save this dirty drowning man.
You're so fine, so bright and shiney fine. And I'm so proud to say that you in fact are a friend of mine. And doubly pleased with crooked wobbly knees. I dive on in and backstroke right across these seas of cheese.
But on the times when I'm not such a giving man. Please flip me out of the fire and backup into the frying pan.
And if you're down looking like you're gonna drown. Of all your friends I'm the one who's most apt to stick around.
I'm a drowning man. Who will save this drowning man. Who will save this drowning man. Who will save this dirty drowning man.

[song]See Me through
[Verse One]
Am I just invisible?
Trapped silently suffering, drowning with this pain,
you swore I was The One and Only,
Why then am I so lonely sitting here?
day by day time just flies me past
left wondering why we didn't last
[Chorus]
Will someone,
see me through?
offer me a hand, giving me back to the sun,
mending my heart,
will someone see me through?
[Verse Two]
I want to leave - but can't say goodbye,
feeling cold and alone,
you said you'ld always stay be my side,
Left with this emptyness that won't let me be
Oh why won't you caome back to me?
[Repeat Chorus]
[Bridge]
Memories,
we could of had
just slip away,
leaving me alone in the dark
why so badly,
did you break heart?
All you lies -
My only comfort

[Middle 8]
You swore I was -
The One and Only,
Why then -
am I so lonely?

Back On The Street Again
I was so lonely until I met you
Told myself Id get by without love
Drowning my sorrows
Avoiding tomorrows
And I felt like I just had enough
You light up my face
Youre jokes and youre smiles
And the way that you came every night
I dont know whatcha got
But I sure glad I found you
Dont get me wrong it sure feels right
Chorus:
Here I am, Im back on the street again
Here I am, Im back on my feet again
Surprise at myself for the way that I feel
So happy that youre here with me
Some men that Ive known
Have left me with nothing
But I guess that was just meant to be
Chorus
I went down for the count
I was down, I was beat and I was crying
I was caught up in hate
Hiding my face and not trying
I was so lonely until I met you
Told myself Id get by without love
Drowning my sorrows
Avoiding tomorrows
And I felt like I just had enough

Your face lit up the city
Two worlds came together
The memory stays for evermore
So different your fashion
You were the main attraction
Heads turning in wonder
I felt myself go under

No chains can hold you when you

Don't try to fight it when you

Nobody matters but the one you love

So strange your reaction
I made the right connection now
You got me no bother
I can't see any other
The world keeps on turning
I wouldn't care if it was burning

You should find the right door
But there's no guarantee
You'll find what you're looking for
Don't give up if you blow it the first time around
But you've got to beware
If you're walking on air
Keep your feet on the ground
(Keep your feet on the ground)
Don't stop me I'm not dreaming
I can't ignore this feeling
Your love is my lifeline
You're so right so fine so glad you're mine
