Woke up to the sound of bombs
turned on the tube, it said they bombed the pentagon
three hours in and we're jumping to conclusions
across the nation chaos and confusion
(No need to hear all the warnings
No need to fear all the warnings
no need to heed to the warnings
we're in good hands we're the world authorities)
I heard this could have been avoided
but I guess the lives of thousands isn't that important
we'd rather raise the price of live so people cant afford it
than making sure that people just don't plain destroy it
(No need to hear all the reasons
No need to tell you all the reasons
no need to explain the reasons
we're in good hands in a world of heathens)
It will never happen in my backyard
but people kill people without regard
and violence breeds violence
and violence breeds violence
(No need to tell you all the warnings
No need to hear all the warnings
no need to fear all the warnings
we're in good hands we're the world authorities)

I was just in Chicago and I got mugged
behind the bus depot
I'm gonna give you some cell phone fifteen bucks
Iv'e got 2000 miles to go
Hey mister I feel real real bad
hearing about what you've been through
you're over 40 and you look like shit
and I've got my youth and some money
(so here is what I'm gonna do
So here is what I'm gonna do
Gonna give you some money buddy 15 bucks
really hope that you make it home
gonna give you some money buddy 15 bucks
but I hope that you keep that cell phone)

you should have seen this guy he had a couple boilermakers on a 10 minute stop in Brainerd. Now I had a hard time understanding what he was saying before so this didn't help anything, for communication purposes. His eyes got all jumpy in the middle of the night and I saw him poking the kid sitting in front of me.
money well spent. Right?

Armor

I wear my Armor, go for a walk
I wear my armor cause I don't wanna talk
Cause its so hard to say you feel
and when you know the feelings real
I'm not gonna push my thoughts aside
just keep them on inside
I'm not gonna push my thoughts aside
just keep them on inside
(This armor this armor
it's for the better
to honor this armor
you'll know me better off)
repeat above X2
but on the inside
I'm dying for some help
so take me outside
and tell me i'm alright
cause on the inside I'm dying for some help so take me outside and tell me i'm alright
I wear my Armor, go for a walk
I wear my armor cause I don't wanna talk
Cause its so hard to say you feel
and when you know the feelings real
I'm not gonna push my thoughts aside
just keep them on inside
I'm not gonna push my thoughts aside
just keep them on inside
(This armor this armor
it's for the better
to honor this armor
you'll know me better off)

Earth Beneath My Feet
02:07
|
|||
Wanna feel the earth beneath my feet
take my head out from between my knees
feel the wind blow through the trees
take the time and listen to the breeze
Wanna take a drink from a mountain spring
feel like I don't need to amount to anything
taking only what I bring
I can do about anything
Wanna sing of the ocean blue
record it and play it back to you
sing my days on earth with you
nothing else I wanna do
Mother earth had the best intentions
someone thought she could use some corrections
I can't breathe
"god" had the best inventions but we've got our innovations
I can't breathe
Maybe if we stop inhaling all these fumes
We could see the end of win and lose X4

Potential
02:09
|
|||
I know I'm not reaching my full potential
and I hope the right credentials
to be the one you call your one and only
to be the one you call your one and only
(Cause it takes two hearts baby to pump all the love that's in my heart
and I know that you'll come through for me
Though I can make it on my own now, it's just no fun to be alone)
It's hard to show our true affections
living in a world that's based on self obsession
but I think that we can make a change now
yeah with our love we'll rearrange now
(Cause it takes two hearts baby to pump all the love that's in my heart
and I know that you'll come through for me
Though I can make it on my own now, it's just no fun to be alone)
cause each heart takes two hearts so to hearts need to hearts
and over and over so on and so on X2
(Cause it takes two hearts baby to pump all the love that's in my heart
and I know that you'll come through for me
Though I can make it on my own now, it's just no fun to be alone)

Rocketship
01:58

He came in the house with blood on his hands and his mom said what the fuck
He said shut up mother I'm no gonna be the one to deal with your shit
I found a rocket-ship
(Move over Nasa I'm a coming through
what the hell are you gonna do about it
I found a rocket-ship)
As I fly up in the sky I look back at the ground
Now that i'm in outer space everything seems safe and sound
No one to bother me no one to hurt me
no one to say that they love me when they don't
now that I'm alone in space I wont have to deal with anyone's shit
(Move over Nasa I'm a coming through
what the hell are you gonna do about it
I found a rocket-ship)
If you'd like to fly with me don't hesitate to ask
cause i'd do anything for you it's such a simple task
get out of this galaxy forget technicality
and fly to your full ability
cause far away from hate and greed I wont have to deal
with anyone's shit
All because I found that rocket ship
(Move over Nasa I'm a coming through
what the hell are you gonna do about it
I found a rocket-ship)
found a rocket ship

Open Ended Paragraph
03:08
|

Open ended paragraph for a reason
can't be pushed away to distant seasons
this book of silent screams a body torn apart by seams
my world is falling down, I've changed and I coming around
(and it takes me back to this I lack
feelings lost that I'd take back
Now my engines stalling if I only had a lift
if it wasn't such a long road I'd be walking it
now my time is passing and my windows painted shut
I'm here for a reason I can feel it in my gut)
As the face bears down no me the voice screams go and I scream no
If the cover rips of my plain do you think that I will feel the same
If I could keep a dream together as if I've closed my eyes forever
If I could hold and not just touch those little things that mean so much
(and it takes me back to this I lack
feelings lost that I'd take back
Now my engines stalling if I only had a lift
if it wasn't such a long road I'd be walking it
now my time is passing and my windows painted shut
I'm here for a reason I can feel it in my gut)
If it wasn't such a long road X2

Get It Right
02:01
|
|||
I wish I wasn't a fool I never say the right thing
If only I though stuff through there'd be a lot less fighting
I don't try to push you away I try to make things better
but sometimes i go the wrong way that's why I write this letter
(let me try, get it right)
I can't stand being away from you it always gets me down
but we don't have to feel blue, cause I don't like to see you frown
your face is burned in my mind your smell is on my hands for hours
the taste of lipstick left behind, my heart falls like April showers
it showers
(let me try, get it right)
Right!

My Life
01:37
|
|||
No motivation and my skies are always grey
trying to find new things to occupy my day
hand in a bag of chips, stale Frito Lays
I sit at home and waste my whole life away
Not making plans for the pointless holidays
and I'm too bored to even play Nintendo games
mouth always tastes like and over filled ash tray
cant keep a girl I even wish that I was gay
go!

Bags are all packed and you're ready to go
away from those people you know
but where do you go when those new faces grow old
boring and repetitive
(Well I know
It's choice if you want to go away
but you should know
I really wish you'd stay cause
your scenery just changes, my whole life rearranges)
Making it seem as if you've lost your mind
knowing your hearts in a bind
feeling so bad and I know this is wrong
I've got to learn how to be strong
(Well I know
It's choice if you want to go away
but you should know
I really wish you'd stay cause
your scenery just changes, my whole life rearranges)
I always thought that together we'd be
united in matrimony
together forever though every endeavor
I'd follow you anywhere
(Well I know
It's choice if you want to go away
but you should know
I really wish you'd stay cause
your scenery just changes, my whole life rearranges)
My one wish
to be with you
can I go to AZ to?

Valentine
02:36

You ask why I'm smiling
and get no reason why
well maybe I'm just waiting
until that special time
once had a dream and that dream came true
so as I lean to you I take a look it reads like a book
(I take a look at my life, bad times before
now I'm with my valentine and couldn't ask for more
i take a look at my life, a long love line
now I'm with my one true love yeah the one that I adore)
I watch you sleep sometimes
and wide awake I cry
this joy is overwhelming
so wide awake I lye
once had a dream and that dream came true
so as I lean to you I take a look it reads like a book
(I take a look at my life, bad times before
now I'm with my valentine and couldn't ask for more
i take a look at my life, a long love line
now I'm with my one true love yeah the one that I adore)
once had a dream and that dream came true
so as I lean to you I take a look it reads like a book

Kevin's Song
09:40
|

We lost a friend today
his name was Kevin K
I sat and watched the sun filled sky
as I sat all alone tears fell from my eyes
We lost a brother today
his name was Kevin K
I sat and watched the sun filled sky
as I sat all alone tears fell from my eyes
(When I am gone release me, let me go
I've got so many things to see and do
you mustn't tie yourself to me with tears
be happy we had so many years)
*there's no good way to say good bye forever, fare thee well
