Days Pass on By
03:42
|
|||
|
To put you down and mess your head
Up with all the things they said
It took so long to make amends with you
Yeah you pop some pills to get your fill
But deep inside you've lost your will
You have a way with words to get you through
But the days pass on by
In the morning the sun will shine
And you'll be fine
You've been kicked around and left for dead
Decompose your life instead
But you got the days ahead I know you do
Your weakness seems tried and true
But not to those who put you through
It's been so long since I had a friend in you
But the days pass on by
In the morning the sun will shine
And you'll be fine
Get yourself together
I'm on a train to Denver now
Lost in mid November
Don't let the weather get you down
In your life
Days pass on by
In the morning the sun will shine
And you'll be fine
But the days pass on by
In the morning the sun will shine
And you'll be fine
You will be fine
You will be fine
You will be fine
You will be fine

Back Again
03:14
|

|
I’ve been broken twice before
But I won’t be stepped on again
Seems forever since we’ve been friends
But I don’t want to lick my wounds again
I’ve been holding out for something
That I’ve been waiting for
I’ve been trying to get to you
So don’t think I won’t be back again
I'd Rather be here lost together
Than to see you drown alone
I’ve been down and I’ve been around
So I know just how tough life can be
I’ve been holding out for something
That I’ve been waiting for
I’ve been trying to get to you
So don’t think I won’t be back again
I’ve been holding out for something
That I’ve been waiting for
I’ve been trying to get to you
So don’t think I won’t be back again
So don’t think I won’t be back again
So don’t think I won’t be back again

Song for You
04:19
|
|||
|
How many times we walked along the river shore?
Too many days and now we’re getting worn.
How many years we’ve taken more than it shows?
Still I’d like to sing a song for you
I wish my part was that much more in tune
With you
How many lies will it take to move on?
Too many times we’ve tried to make right from wrong
How many ways to keep on keeping strong
But still I tried
To make you see what you mean to me
And I don’t want what’s wrong to come between
You and me
How many lost feelings do you want to know
Looking back I only wanna let it go
And how many times we’ve overcome once before
But here we stand
And still I’d like to sing a song for you
I wish my part was that much more in tune
To make you see what you mean to me
And I don’t want what’s wrong to come between
You and me
Ah you and me yeah

A House Ain't a Home
04:31
|
|||
|
They say every man needs a home
A house on a hill to grow old
I can’t keep lying about things you should know
A house ain’t a home when you’re on your own
A farm and an old country road
Ten acres of fields to sow
A summer like this oh but how could fate miss
‘Cause a house ain’t a home when you’re on your own
A wife and two kids this you cannot relate
To a drunk at a bar who can’t get a date
But I’m not here preaching but this you must know
A house ain’t a home when you’re on your own
You say you’re leaving me now
For a life of late nights on the town
I know you’re leaving but before you must go
A house ain’t a home when you’re on your own
A wife and two kids this you can not relate
To a drunk at a bar who can’t get a date
But I’m not here preaching but things you must know
A house ain’t a home when you’re on your own
I said a house ain’t a home when you’re on your own

No Sympathy
05:51
|
|||
|
Some of my friends tell me don’t be so blind
They said you got wasted and kept telling lies
With eyes glazed over why you looking so high
It’s hard to take this time
I tried to get through to you but you never called back
I stayed up laying in my bed wondering where the hell you have been
I watched the hours collect in time
It’s hard to take your infectious lies
I’ve been showed up
Don’t want no sympathy
But still you try it on with me
Drifting through life
Don’t want what you can’t see
But still you carry on with me
I read it in the back pages of the morning star
Words that pierced me and left a big scar
Oh life can be cruel when you let down your guard
It’s hard to face when the news arrives
I’ve been showed up
Don’t want no sympathy
But still you try it on with me
Drifting through life
Don’t want what you can’t see
But still you carry on with me
I’ve been showed up
Don’t want no sympathy
But still you try it on with me
Drifting through life
Don’t want what you can’t see
But still you carry on with me

Distant Shores
03:27
|
|||
|
I Lived my life on distant shores
Forty years, maybe more
From the earth in which I rose
Lead me home to rest my bones
But this old crow has come to know
Where I turn my wheels don't roll.
To befriend those I meet
Equal ground cheek to cheek
I hung around for what’s in store
I wrote a book and then some more
But this old crow has come to know
Where I turn my wheels don't roll.
And now when eagles soar
Overhead my new home
Flowers bloom as days grow long
Six feet down time moves on
But this old crow has come to know
Where I turn my wheels don't roll
I lived my life on distant shores
Forty years maybe more

Empire of Illusion

Empire of Illusion
Will distract manipulate the facts just to abuse you
But I’ve got ways to make you understand
If you’ve got time to change it take a stand
Well people will try to drag you
Down with social status apparatus just to be cruel
But I’ve got ways to make you understand
If you’ve got time to change it take a stand
Now leaders will try and make you
Fall for all the corporate bullshit that you learned back in school
But I’ve got ways to make you understand
If you’ve got time to change it take a stand
Empire of delusion
Will hypnotize each and every mind just to contain you.
But I’ve got ways to make you understand
If you got time to change it take a stand
But I’ve got ways to make you understand
If you got time to change oh I’m your man
Oh I’m your man
Oh I’m your man
Oh I’m your man

Keep in Line
04:18
|
|||
|
Inwards I’ve got to keep in line
So I can stand up to your kind
Running around with you
I’m tied and bound to you
Hard to get around
But it’s my life
To live the way I wanna live
Got to hold you in my life
And take what I’ve left behind
Don’t you pretend
And I won’t contend
Fight or defend your lies
But I know a way to get it through to you
Hope you get a rise
A river flows from your eyes today
Don’t you drown on my time
But it’s alright
To cry my name when the tears come along
Got to hold you in my life
And take what I’ve left behind
Don’t you pretend
And I won’t contend
Fight or defend your lies
It seems so long
Since I held you much higher
But now I am dying
Over you
Got to hold you in my life
And take what I’ve left behind
Got to hold you in my life
Cause I’ve been running wild
Got to hold you in my life
Cause I’ve been, been running
Running wild

Too Much Too Hard
05:18
|
|||
|
Based on experience I can’t go on
This time it’s serious got my head strong
Series of chain events pushed things too far
But I don’t have regrets my shining star
Maybe this is not the better way
To leave you hanging on a string each day
I got my head messed but my mind it sways
To lead you on for a second day
Is too much too hard to say
I felt so indifferent torn and confined
And I might seem negligent but you over time
Played on my ignorance as the days rolled by
But I know your true intentions have crossed my mind
Maybe this is not the better way
To leave you hanging on a string each day
I got my head messed up but my mind it sways
To lead you on for a second day
It’s too much too hard to say
Maybe this is not the better way
To leave you hanging on a string each day
I got my head messed up but my mind it sways
To lead you on for a second day
It’s too much too hard to take
Too much too hard
Oh too hard to take
Too much too hard
Ba da bop ba ba da bop ba da ba
Ba da bop ba ba da baaaaa

Too Young to Cry
04:53
|
|||
|
I came into town the other day
What did I find to my dismay
Those were the days when we were young
Lost in a haze of a humid sun
But day after day I'll make mistakes
And heaven knows my head still shakes
Cause getting back to you was hard to take
You came to my games when I was young
I'm older now but still your son
I'll look up to you for years to come
And raise up my glass when the evenin’s done
But day after day I'll make mistakes
And heaven knows my head still shakes
Cause getting back to you was hard to take
But you found a way to change me
To better make sense of this life
You had a way of saying
I’m too young to have to see you cry
I learned a few things from you
Right from the start of the age of two
It's over now and through and through
Gone are the days that we once knew
But day after day I'll make mistakes
And heaven knows my head still shakes
Cause getting back to you was hard to take
But you found a way to change me
To better make sense of this life
You had a way of saying
I’m too young to have to see you cry
But you found a way to change me
To better makes sense of this life
You had way of saying
I'm to young to see you cry
I'm too young to see you cry
But you found a way to change me
To better makes sense of this life
You had way of saying
I'm too young to see you cry
I'm too young to see you cry
I'm too young to see you cry
I'm too young to see you cry
I'm too young to see you cry
I'm too young to see you cry
I'm too young to see you cry
I'm too young to see you cry

Meet Me Halfway
03:14
|

|
Oh my friend can’t quite seem to choose
Spends all day kickin’ back a few
I said come on brother don’t be such a fool
And waste your days that old bar stool
I don’t wanna fight
Leave your keys on the table
Stand tall now and meet me halfway
Blame it on the fact that you can’t see
Where you’re going and what you plan to be
I know the feeling everybody knows the feeling
That the weight is on your shoulders.
I don’t wanna fight
Leave your keys on the table
Play it all back to me (I know that)
Hard times and hard luck is where you’ll be
Stand tall now and meet me halfway
Ten to life is what the news will say
When the flame burns out in the cold dark night
Mourners wait for you to be led away
I don’t wanna to fight
Leave your keys on the table
Play it all back to me (I know that)
Hard times and hard luck is where you’ll be
Stand tall now and meet me halfway

South River
02:58

|
Times were better then back home
If you got wheels then hit the road
Turn up the radio and unwind
Get with the rhythm of the county line
But right now trouble won't find you
Where you lay
South River will buy you time
To get away
The dust is gonna settle and the clouds break
When you're one step further past heaven's gate
Run into the water on a hot day
Three days of living while on your stay
But right now trouble won't find you
Where you lay
South River will buy you time
To get away
Listen to the stories that have been told
Down by The Narrows old country store
Sun soaked days getting lazy in the afternoon
Hear the loons calling when the day's done
Pull on a sweater lets have some fun
And do si do when the moon's higher
Ignite old songs like a 'Ring of Fire'
Right now trouble won't find you
Where you lay
South River will buy you time
To get away
South River will buy you
South River will buy you
South River will buy you time
To get away
