What I am to Me

Please don’t find out what I see,

Please don’t keep on asking me.

Stay away from honesty.

Try not to trust the world round here.

Listen to your heart race.

Kiss close your eyes don’t embrace.

Feel the trouble make its case.

Leave what’s resting on your mind behind.

Go, Go, Go,

Hide from your emotions.

Go, Go, Go,

Heed not little notions.

Go, Go, Go,

Stay where you belong.

Go, Go, Go,

Try not to be who you aren’t.

Long gone lasting legacy,

Wrong done sweet catastrophe,

May relay monstrosity,

Feel free to just lend all your ear.

Watching leaders fast chase.

Miss fall away one more ace.

Deal them around in great haste.

Test the message of the lie in time.

Worldwide chaos conspiracy,

Big pride hurting peace the key,

Lay below the tragedy,

Leave it to rust away in fear.

Isn’t there no empty place?

Sink floating down find a space,

Seal the feeling on your face.

Be to you what I am to me.

Lady in Red

She was red-hot
All the guys from all around
Want to dance with her
And spend the night.
What fun she would have
At her parties on the weekend
They wouldn't stop 'till morning
Then you would feel it.

Her name was whispered in every ear
Made grown men blush
And after you got some
You felt her icy touch.

Eyes that burn like fire
She walks up to you and says,
"Wanna have some fun?"
Who would say no?
It starts with a dance
And there it doesn't stop
'Till you're laying in her bed
Then you would feel it.

Her name was whispered in every ear
Made grown men blush
And after you got some
You felt here icy touch.

Temptress, venomous snake
Siren of the modern day.
Leading sheep to be
Pleasured then eviscerated.
Who you are, we don't know, (Where you are, everywhere, yet still a mystery)
It is a mystery.
The tragedy is you rule us all,
Are we all slaves?

The Lady in Red is scheming to get us
With her ways of pain
Will we give in and let her rule our lives?

Hell No.

He felt weak in the knees
He wanted to join
In her fateful dance
And have some fun.
There it didn't stop
All the laughing and the passion
Until the next morning
He never felt a thing again.

Not a single thing again.

So Much to Say

Many words flowed from my tongue,
Come to you and we had some fun.
Then you left, ran away,
Left with him on that fateful day.

I had burst out into tears,
The note I found confirmed my fears.
Lighted eyes, darkened heart,
Tells some exactly how to play the part.

So much to say,
So much I cannot express it.
About you,
And him long gone.

Telling time was not too hard
Then my heart stopped, and I was scarred.
Straining day lay ahead.
Thought that I would be much better off dead.

Thinking deep inside my head:
“What did I do? Was it something I said?”
Little thoughts comfort me.
Don’t know where it is that I should be.

So much to say,
So much I cannot express it.
About you,
And him long gone.

Many things have come to pass,
Occasions call to make it last.
Sometimes yes, sometimes no.
That’s the way it happens, that is so.

Every day I think of you,
With the way you split me in two.
I am here, where are you?
Do you ever think about me too?

So much to say,
So much I cannot express it.
About you,
And him long gone.

Everytime

Hey you don't you know it's true,

I found out just like you.

Some one said just the other day,

Our problems don't go they stay.

Oh yeah,

They’ll get you everytime.

Oh no,

Don’t say where to go.

Oh hey,

Now you know.

It sucks,

To be alone.

A little girl stared back at me,

Said “let’s go dance with me.”

But the dance didn’t end in the club,

Lasted all the way to the pub.

Went by too fast to see.

Starry eyes reserved for me.

Stayed at that bar too long.

Was a fool and now she’s gone.

Tumbling Down

Goodbye age of innocence
No, I'm not expecting much
At least we could play in the streets
Without the anxiety
The look behind the shoulder
Or a GPS watch, are you insane?

Sitting in the corner with my head between my knees
Wondering why it's so, and how it's gonna be
Swirling thoughts and images confuse and startle me
What's happening to this world? It's all just come tumbling down.

What is happening to this world?
Complications and problems
Where to turn? where to run?
Is this for real?
The darkness is everywhere
And there is no place to go
The darkness is everywhere
The jungle gyms lay empty.

Sitting in the corner with my head between my knees
Wondering why it's so, and how it's gonna be
Swirling thoughts and images confuse and startle me
What's happening to this world? It's all just come tumbling down.

And in this savage world where I find myself today,
Nothing's the way it was, when I was yesterday
Evil things confusing me, and leading me astray
Tears will cease and fears released.
On that coming day.

Sitting in the corner with my head between my knees
Wondering why it's so, and how it's gonna be
Swirling thoughts and images confuse and startle me
What's happening to this world? It's all just come tumbling down.

Ska Life

Listen to the beat roll
Listen to the horns blow
The music fills my house
Running from my troubles
Maybe I'm not able
To face the music?

What does it mean?
When will it end?
What is this nightmare?
When will I be free?
Problems, worries, turmoil, pain
They all can go away
Instead of caving into strike
Just try and lead a ska life.

Pain shooting in my head
Thinking that I'll end up dead
When will it stop?
The world is spinning 'round and 'round
Looking for that special sound
To give me peace.

Painful love and heartbreak
Fear of what could be at stake
I'm at my wit's end
Melodies can cure you,
You will always stay true
Now and forever.

What does it mean?
When will it end?
What is this nightmare?
When will I be free?
Problems, worries, turmoil, pain
They all can go away
Instead of caving into strike
Just try and lead a ska life.

Cowboy King

He strolls into his palace
Muddy boots and spurs
"What a place
I guess it's my new home."
Straight from the horse to the throne
Scepter like a lasso.
Gonna round up the herd.
He'll teach 'em all, they gotta learn.

Riding the range night and day
Ruling the land with an iron fist.
"I'm macho to the max, master of life and death."
Got a problem, live with it.
'Cuz the Cowboy's here to stay, and cowboys never die.
Never Die.

A wink to the ladies
O what a guy
Some candy for the kids
Gee Aren't I swell
A handshake, hug, or a kick in the nuts
To an enemy, friend or brother.
Democracy or fallacy
That's what it has become.

Riding the range night and day
Ruling the land with an iron fist.
"I'm macho to the max, master of life and death."
Got a problem, live with it.
'Cuz the Cowboy's here to stay, and cowboys never die.
Never Die.

Father of the world
Keeper of the peace
Bastion and safety
No need to be afraid.
Patriarch? I think not
Ruthless, bloody butcher
You have no need
Your time is coming to an end.

Riding the range night and day
Ruling the land with an iron fist.
"I'm macho to the max, master of life and death."
Got a problem, live with it.
'Cuz the Cowboy's here to stay, and cowboys never die.
Never Die.

Immunity Dies

As the dove flies by away,
I see you standing there.
It really hurts me much to know
That you are in despair

You poor little lass,
You silly, foolish soul,
Has immorality taken you
Out of control?

But, why must it come to this?
‘Cuz you can’t reach perfect bliss.
Will you jump off the cliff,
Or try to sift it out?

Did you think you were immune,
To everything you heard out of tune?

Too many problems for one girl,
Go talk to Papa, tell you tale.
Go talk to Mama, she won’t fail.
Please don’t die in a stupid world.

But, why must it come to this?
‘Cuz you can’t reach perfect bliss.
Will you jump off the cliff,
Or try to sift it out?

Did you think you were immune,
To everything you heard out of tune?
