Deleting You
03:47
|

You don't get the chance to miss anybody
Cause nobody goes away
Years of divide collapse in a second
One click and your on your way
That high school aquaintence
Takes far too much maintenence
My time is short and your story seems long
Close the windows and pull the blinds
Watch my timeline as it rewinds
You can look but you'll never find
I'm deleting you from my mind
You don't get the chance to long for somebody
Cause nobody goes away
Digital files for billions of miles
Make up your dossier
Those intimate details
That hang to your shirtails
Try to imagine how little I care
I don't mean to come off unkind
But I'm quitting while you're behind
Pull the thread cuz you're too entwined
I'm deleting you from my mind
I keep on running in circles here
Trying to make it all disappear
All the playbacks are crystal clear
Throwback yesteryear
Thoughts of the past don't turn into memory
Cause nobody goes away
A flat line perspective
Inside this collective
Where everythings on display
All of us neutered by phone and computer
I cut you down with a flick of my wrist
Missed the fine print back when I signed
Been surveyed I've been data mined
And for emphasis underlined
I'm deleting you from my mind

UNBROKEN
When that last drop of my well runs dry
You are my ever flowing river
Makes me so happy I could almost cry
You are a dream built to deliver
I was broken i was half the man
Half the man I am today
Now I'm whole, holy cow
I’m unbroken
Where the first rays of the sunlight shine
You open me up like a flower
I'm a diamond sitting in a mine
And you unleash my hidden power
I was broken I was half the man
Half the man I am today
Now I'm whole, holy cow
I was hoping but I had no plan
Half the man I am today
Took control roll on now
I’m unbroken, I’m unbroken
Can't put together
What's never been apart
Can't tell where one heart ends
and where the other starts
Why love's unbreakable
It's all beyond our understanding
How can the moon hide in the deep blue sky
And still illuminate the nighttime
I felt so tired I couldn't even try
You were there waiting for the right time
I was broken i was half the man
Half the man I am today
Now I'm whole, holy cow
I was hoping but I had no plan
Half the man I am today
Took control roll on now
I’m unbroken, I’m unbroken
I’m unbroken, I’m unbroken

ANTELOPE CANYON
I miss the quiet nights at home with you curled up on the sofa
Skyline view we couldn’t get much closer
Now I spend every night alone
Sometimes I catch up on the news from you
When I hook up my antenna
Rendezvous, you don’t get my dilemma
You tell me I’m the only one
But how does that help me in Antelope Canyon?
Please check my mail when you’re back from LA
I’ll visit Alaska but not this December
Remember me on those cold, winter days.Those cold winter days.
As I gather up some wood I stood out looking from the cabin
How could we ever let this happen,To step away from something good?
A hundred miles out of town
Cut off from all civilization
I cough –so cold this elevation
You say you want to keep me warm
But please can you call I’m in Antelope Canyon
I pray that this message is getting to you
I feel like I’ve entered another dimension
It’s not my intention of leaving here soon.
I’m not leaving here soon
As I sit by the fire I look up at the sky
So many miles and hours between you and I
I’m alone on the run, never to return
Many rivers to cross, many bridges to burn
I miss the quiet nights at home
With you curled up on the sofa
Skyline views, we couldn’t get much closer
Now I spend every night alone
And how does that help me in Antelope Canyon?
I’m here for the colors, the silence, and peace
A new take on life isn’t out of the question
And just the suggestion can bring me relief
Such sweet relief

HEAVEN IN MY HEAD
Imagine you are me
Now tell me what you seeIs that how I look?
Is that how I act?
Do we seem eye to eye to I?
Imagine we are one
Since life had begun
Like Siamese twins
Who end and begin
Where one’s for all
For all is for one
Baby is this heaven? Is this hell?
Maybe we both cast this evil spell
Being bound together it’s too hard to tell apart
Heaven in my head hell in my heart
Remembering the dream
Can’t wake when you scream
By hook or by crook
The mirror is cracked
Reflecting what you feel you see
Remembering the time
When all yours was mine
Then we cut the deck
And we cast our bet
Forget the odds the cards are stacked
Baby is this heaven is this hell
The higher that we flew deeper we fell
Always late arriving only never to depart
Heaven in my head hell in my heart
Heaven in my head hell in my heart

God Is A Bully
04:21
|

God is a bully
he’s mean and unfair he let’s people suffer
and die in despair
Don’t make him angry
or get in his way
Cuz God is a bully
and he’ll ruin your day
And you can curse him till you’re blue
and then you ask him what to do
If every prayer I send makes it through,
so you can help me see the light
God knows I’m restless
from making me wait
Until I am begging
there’s too much at stake
Don’t let me suffer
or strike me down dead
Please pardon my burden
And spare me instead
And you can praise his holy name
And he’s the first one that you blame
If every ounce of pride turns into shame
Forever in a losing game
One day I’m gonna see the light
One day, one day,one I’m gonna see the light
One day, one day,I’m going to separate the wrong from right
God is a bully whowants me me to fight
God makes me feel like I’m less than a man
Though I’ve been trying as hard as I can
He likes when I’m tired, he won’t let me rest
Until he’s convinced I’ve given my best
And when I think “that’s it, I’m done.”He says,
“There’s nowhere left to run.”
And so I fix my stare straight at the sun
One day I’m gonna see the light
One day, one day
One day I’m gonna see the light
One day, one dayI’m gonna punch back
With all my might
God is a bully
And he wants me to fight
God is a bully

Sugar Free

SUGAR FREE
Why so cold to me
Are you sugar free?
It’s so bitter in my cup
It’s my destiny
To live life sugar free
When will things start looking up
Counting the days and the hours
Every minute that I’m the clock
Till I’m getting a sweet taste
All the candy and the flowers
Bought to prove that I wasn't just talk
Why am I being replaced
Got the fifth degree
Now I'm sugar free
Rub some butter on my burn
It’s so plain to see
I’m living life sugar free
I wait for sugar to return
Reading the signs and the stars
Hope one day I’ll be able to fly
Hanging on till it’s too late
Deep dark brown chocolate bars
Semi bitter yeah we broke it off
Became everything we hate
Why so cold to meAre you sugar free?
It’s so bitter in my cup
It’s my destiny
To live life sugar free
When will things start looking up?

NOT THAT KIND OF GUY
You’ve looked up to me
Since you first opened up your eyes
I’d give you love but beyond that\
I’m just a man who tries
You think I am special
You think I'm unique
But I don't know why
I'm not that kind of guy
You say you're so jealous
Every time I speak
But I'm really shy
I'm not that kind of guy
What have I done
Tell me my only son
I can't go on
Knowing something is wrong
I can’t go on something is wrong
You say you won't hear it
Shut down my critique
But I can't supply
I'm not that kind of guy
When you say I’m golden
I think I'm a freak
So I don’t even try
I’m not that kind of guy
What can I do
Help me fix it with you
I've got the glue
When your plans all fall through
I got the glue I’m sticking with you
No man is a giant
Staring from a peak
Lighting up the sky
I’m not that kind of guy
I’m not that kind of guy

Mama's Love
03:26
|

Hit the brakes, baby, it's too late
Watch everyone come crashing through the glass
Flags are waving, hymns serenading
Kids misbehaving, while we're medicating.
Get all up in my face
Boast how to win the race I feel like giving up
But hate can't be erased It's still an angry place
You never got enough of mama's love
As I tumbled in the dryer
Mother smoked and giggled with her friends
Once awakened, I then was taken
Worn and shaken, now forsaken.
Get all up in my face
How best to win the race I feel like giving up
But hate will not erase
What I try to replace
I never got enough of mama's love
And you'd like to think your mother
Wants what's best for you
And that every mother
Does her child right
But sometimes, love,
The opposite is also true
And you must carry on
And learn to get along
Now go and get along
Carry on, carry on!
It's eternal, this constant struggle
A war of what goes out And what goes in
Many lovers, but just one mother
Live and discover, love one another
Get all up in my face
Bout how to win the race I feel like giving up
Yes, hate can be replaced It's hard for us to face
We never got enough of mama's love

L'Amour Fantastique

NOTRE L'AMOUR FANTASTIQUE
Summer light is shining
Formidable, ravissante
Stray cats are crying
Incroyable, affriolante
We sit and sip our Beajoulais
And watch the people stroll
Every day of the week
Notre l'amour fantastique
When we speak
Every word's filled with love
Like Van Gogh's starry night
We explode and ignite
Shooting stars sent from
Heaven above
Notre Dame at sunset
Séduisant, merveilleux
Don't know where the day went
Étrange, délicieux
Took a walk, we laughed and kissed
Beneath the Eiffel Tower
The light, these views, the scenery
Are just like in my dreams
Then your eyes catch the light
Like Van Gogh's starry night
Comets spin and ignite in the sky
And we don't need to speak
Notre l'amour fantastique
Magnifique! Eblouissant! Merveilleux!

We're Killing It
03:50
|
|||
We met on a Monday
In the aftenoon
I spilled a cup of coffee on your dress
Though I said I I'm sorry
You said that wouldn't do
You're gonna have to own up to
This mess
And Now we're killing it
Never would have thought
Now we're killing
We would both get caught
Now were killing it
Like we were willing it to be
Oh lord now I know
It was wrong
To keep this misery alive so long
We were so unhappy
Money wasn't there
Everything a struggle and a chore
We treated each other
With tenderness and care
We hoped that love
Could bring us something more
And now we're killing it
I knew this day would come
Now we're killing
Life has just begun
Now were killing it
Like we were willing it to be
Oh lord now I know
It was wrong
To keep this misery alive so long
Could have walked away
Could have said goodbye
Easy to give up
Harder than to try
We kept the gear in drive
Now we're killing it
Now we're killing it
You and I
Things are getting better
We can finally breathe
We took a three day weekend
By the shore
Paid back all the money
To relatives and friends
We're happy and we're grateful
We crawled out of the landfill
Fortune finally knocked
Upon our door
And now we're killing it
These are happy days
Yeah we're killing it
All time hall of fame
Now were killing it
Like we were willing it to be
Oh lord now I know
We were strong
Oh lord now I know
It was wrong
To keep this misery alive
We killed it so we could survive
Never had a doubt we'd last so long
Now misery is finally up and gone

ENDLESS SUMMER OF LOVE
I want an endless summer with my forever lover
I want an endless summer of love
Let’s spend an endless summer waking from our slumber
Let’s have an endless summer of love
Crying and freezing all these years
Sunshine drying up all these tears
Warm me up and maybe turn my gears
Let’s ride that surfbe pioneers
I want an endless summer long distance runner
I want an endless summer of love
Let's spend an endless summer dancing to the drummer
Let’s have an endless summer of love
Storm clouds chasing us away
Raining on us everyday
Live in a world of silver gray
Let's light a match
And hit the hay
No more fall only rise of the sun
All is love know that you are the one
I want an endless summer with my forever lover
I want an endless summer of love
Let’s spend an endless summer waking from our slumber
Let’s have an endless summer of love

Under The Double Rainbow

UNDER A DOUBLE RAINBOW
Was so much better when you were here
but you're not here right now
I'm sitting here all alone
I'm facing my biggest fear
I'm stuck out in space
forever to drift
When I come back down to earth
Will you still be there?
Under a double rainbow there's a pot of gold
Down deep inside a glade
I found comfort in the shade
Now I'm waking up to you
And you're waking up to me, too
I can see the colored kites
Are lower than the clouds
Lying on the grass
Dreaming through my eyes
I'm out an a limb, so frightened.
I try to hang on
When I'm finally back inside
Will you still be there?
Under a double rainbow
there's a pot of gold
Down deep inside a glade
We found comfort in the shade
You’ve been waking up to me
I've been waking to what you see
It rained so hard had to run and hide
Dark passing clouds had to wait inside
Now I see an arc of light in the skies
Brilliant colors bend before my eyes
I’ll meet you at the other end of the double rainbow
Now we’re cooking up a storm
Savoring our wine
We’re turned off the alarm
We’re treasuring the time
When the sun hits your face
And I catch a glimpse
I know when I close my eyes you will still be there
Under a double rainbow
there's a pot of gold
A gift we both can give
In a place where love can live
We sleep soundly through the night
Waking up together feels right
Under a double rainbow
there is a pot of gold
A place where we belong
Where the love light’s shines so strong
Here inside the prisms beam
We’ll hold each other close and just dream
Dream

Gotta Give a Little

YOU GOT TO GIVE A LITTLE
You gotta give,You gotta give a little if you want to get a lot
You gotta give,You gotta give a little if you want to get a lot\Here’s the answer to life’s great riddle
If you want a lot of something you gotta give a little
You gotta give a little if you want to get a lot
You gotta give You gotta live
You gotta live a little if you want to love a lot
You gotta live You gotta live a little if you want to love a lot
Stuck on the porch playing ‘Hey Diddle Diddle
’If you want a lot of loving you gotta live a little
You gotta live a little if you want to love a lot
You gotta liveI’ll give you all I have sorry I don’t have a lot
No map or a plan maybe I’ve lost the plot
You gotta understand this might be all I got
Buy if you ying my yang, I’ll yang your yin
Then watch this poor boy start to win
I wanna give you all the love that in my heart
It’s flowing out and now it’s off the charts
Go beyond and float above lets hit restart
Clear our browsing history
Start up fresh, just you and me
You gotta try You gotta try a little if you want a better lot
You gotta try If you sit around you’re never gonna get a shot
Rome is burning,you’re playing your fiddle
It’s nowhere, man, to be stuck in the middle
You gotta give a little if you want to get a lot
Gotta get a fire going underneath the pot
Gotta give a little if you want to get a lot
you gotta give
Oh, you gotta give.
