Lost

I wake in the morning and I put on my shoes
Go outside smoke a cigarette or two
I am hungry but I don’t care
You are out there and I wanna know where
Someone please tell me
Where I should be
I awoke to find
Myself left behind
I go to work, don’t notice the ride
I’m too busy being stuck inside
A stranger stops me and asks me the way
I’m as lost as you are was all I could say
I’m Lost
In a world
Where right is wrong
I’m Lost
In a world
Where what I learn is from a song
And I keep on fallin cause I’m stumblin when I’m
Looking to be found
The book on the shelf says here’s a little help
But I’m the author of the book of myself
Try to turn on the light to write
But I’m stumblin in the dark in the middle of the night
Someone please tell me
Where I should be
I awoke to find
Myself left behind
I’m Lost
In a world
Where right is wrong
I’m Lost
In a world
Where what I learn is from a song
And I keep on fallin cause I’m stumblin when I’m
Looking to be found
Someone please tell me
Where I should be
I awoke to find
Myself left behind

Tired
04:26
|

|
We’re all dressed up with nowhere to go
I can see by your eyes that you know
We’ve been down this road from the start
So it’s time that we part
Cause I’m tired of living a lie
I’m tired of being the one to try
I’m tired of always being right
So I’ll sleep alone tonight
And back and forth was the way it went
A game of tug of war was how our time was spent
You are you and I am me
Oh a change is a thing we’ll never see
Cause I’m tired of living a lie
I’m tired of being the one to try
I’m tired of always being right
So I’ll sleep alone tonight
Cause I’m tired of living a lie
I’m tired of being the one to try
I’m tired of always being right
So I’ll sleep alone tonight
But don’t get me wrong
I hate to see you gone
But without you
I’ll move on
Cause I’m tired of living a lie
I’m tired of being the one to try
I’m tired of always being right
So I’ll sleep alone tonight

Easy Going
04:06
|
|||
|
Been driving this dusty road for all my life
Windows down but the dust keeps getting in my eyes
Been told the right way is always the rough way
Oh but I hope to God someday the road gets paved
Cause I need an easy going kind of drive
Need an easy going kind of life
Been searching for love in all the wrong places
And I’m haunted by the memories of all those faces
Been told the right one is always the best one
And I hope to God she has what I want
Cause I need the easy going kind of stuff
Need an easy going kind of love
Easy going is what I need
Easy going is what I need
Been trying to cross the canyons that are in my way
But the sign always reads that the bridge is out today
Been told the other side is where my dreams are at
Oh and I hope to God that wings grow on my back
Cause I need an easy going way to fly
Need an easy going kind of life
Easy going is what I need
Easy going is what I need
Easy going is what I need
Easy going is what I need
Easy going when the going’s not easy
Easy going when the going’s not easy
Easy going, Easy going say it now
Easy going is what I need

Castles
05:11
|
|||
|
Somehow, there’s a calm
Lying in the dust and bones of us
A dark haze with a bright glaze
As the sun rises where our home now lays
Spend our whole life building walls
To keep out heartbreak’s catapults
But all the time that you fortify
Can be gone in just one fight
Cause, all the castles crumble to the ground
Rumblin, tumblin, falling down
And all the king’s horses, all the king’s men
Can’t put our love back together
Again
Again
Gather my strength and I catch my breath
And face the tears that will steal the rest
I’m tripping over words that were said
I watch my step until I clear my head
I won’t stay and watch it burn
Moving on is what I learned
Find a new rock to build upon
Pray the new walls are tall and strong
Cause, all the castles crumble to the ground
Rumblin, tumblin, falling down
And all the king’s horses, all the king’s men
Can’t put our love back together
Again
Again
My kingdom come
It came undone
I’ll take this stone
And build another one
My kingdom come
It came undone
I’ll take this stone
And build another one
All the castles crumble to the ground
Rumblin, tumblin, falling down
And all the king’s horses, all the king’s men
Can’t put our love back together
Again
Again
All the castles crumble to the ground
Rumblin, tumblin, falling down
And all the king’s horses, all the king’s men
Can’t put our love back together
Again
Again
Again

Can't Be That Bad
04:51
|
|||
|
Well I know you’ve noticed
By now
That I’m really, really good at
Falling down
But I take my cue
From the rain and the stars above
Hell, I even follow the words
Of that crazy thing called love
Oh, but it can’t
Be that bad
No it can’t
Be that bad
If they do it too
What goes up
Must come down
All the seeds of the world
Grow from the ground
Even a smile
Wants to be a frown
Everyone loves them
But no one wants to be the clown
Oh, but it can’t
Be that bad
No it can’t
Be that bad
If they do it too
I’m falling down
I’m falling down
Oh, but it can’t
Be that bad
No it can’t
Be that bad
If you do it too

Rough Draft
06:07
|
|||
|
The intro to me is short and sweet
Followed by what is will be
My body is broken
But there’s a story inside
I’ve been looking for a promised savior
Only to find more reckless behavior
I’m searching for the right words
I’ve yet to find
An ending has yet to be written
Cause I am just a rough draft
Of the man I want to be
An ending has yet to be written
Cause I am just a rough draft
Of the man I’m gonna be
I could write a million words more
How I stood outside opportunity’s door
But that building burnt down
And I lit the match
So feel free to read between the lines
This is my story that I call mine
Page after Page
Never knowing where I’m at
An ending has yet to be written
Cause I am just a rough draft
Of the man I want to be
An ending has yet to be written
Cause I am just a rough draft
Of the man I’m gonna be
There’s so much written in red
The mistakes I’ve made and the words I should’ve said
So please don’t edit me away
Be patient for the final words my story will say
An ending has yet to be written
Cause I am just a rough draft
Of the man I want to be
An ending has yet to be written
Cause I am just a rough draft
Of the man I’m gonna be

In Between
04:40

She called me up to say
I had a bad dream are you ok
We were on a ship out at sea
I reached for your hand and you slipped away from me
I woke and was afraid
Something I barely knew went away
There was so many people I could not tell
You were there until you fell
It was all a dream
Am I awake, I feel in between
She said tell me it’s alright
It’s alright
Will I see you next time
Babe if you got the time
If it’s ok I will sleep the rest of the night away
It was all a dream
Am I awake, I feel in between
I hung up the phone, started wondering
How long had it been
Were we ever gonna be
Or forever lost in a dream
Can it be
Am I awake or in between
She said tell me it’s alright
It’s alright
Will I see you next time
Babe if you got the time
If it’s ok I will sleep the rest of the night away
It was all a dream
She said tell me it’s alright
It’s alright
Will I see you next time
Babe if you got the time
If it’s ok I will sleep the rest of the night away
It was all a dream
Are we awake or in between

Destiny
04:51

Her name is Destiny
Every time I see her I’m down on my knees
The world, it spins in her eyes
And her gravity has got a hold of my life
I sit here and watch her sleep
She’s locked up in some crazy dream
All this time she won’t let me know
Holds me close won’t let me go
Destiny
Destiny, why do you open up your heart to the world
But you won’t open up for me
Destiny, why do you open up your heart to the world
But you won’t open up for me
Destiny
Why don’t you let me be free
Destiny
She told me one day
I’d have my way
I’d hear those words
She has yet to say
But all this time
I’ve yet to see
Still I follow that girl
Named Destiny
Destiny, why do you open up your heart to the world
But you won’t open up for me
Destiny, why do you open up your heart to the world
But you won’t open up for me
Destiny
Destiny, why do you open up your heart to the world
But you won’t open up for me
Destiny
Why don’t you let me be free
Destiny
So I wait, until the day
I call out her name, she calls out mine the same

Rear View
04:39
|

We both said things
I’m sure we’ll forget in time
Instead of making love
We just always seem to fight
I know we had dreams
We made our sacrifice
But love’s not supposed to be
A selfish compromise
So I’m going to leave it all
Don’t you dare ask me to say
You know I can’t say no
I just wanna drive away
I wanna leave it all in my rear view
And watch you fade away
I’ve lived in this town
For way too long now
I’ve seen new homes rise
And I’ve seen them crashing down
Year after year
I swear I shed my last tear
Waiting for something
That I’m never gonna find here
So I’m going to leave it all
Don’t you dare ask me to say
You know I can’t say no
I just wanna drive away
I wanna leave it all in my rear view
And watch you fade away
It might take a lifetime
It might take a lifetime
It might take a lifetime
To let go, but I know
I want to leave it all
Don’t you dare ask me to say
You know I can’t say no
I just wanna drive away
I wanna leave it all
in my rear view
I wanna leave it all
in my rear view
I wanna leave it all
in my rear view
And watch you fade away

My Song
05:19
|
|||
|
I don’t have to know why
I don’t even have to go outside
To feel just how feel
When everything feels so real
I tried to live some sort of plan
But you showed me how to be the bigger man
When you came into my life
Now everything feels so right
I need you every night
Cause I’ve waited so long
I’ve waited so long
I’ve waited so long
To play you my song
To play you my song
Today
I lived my life out of tune
Waiting for you to walk in the room
And when that moment finally came
My heart filled up like a puddle of rain
Now my life will never be the same
Cause I’ve waited so long
I’ve waited so long
I’ve waited so long
To play you my song
To play you my song
Today
I want you to know
I want you to know
That here is my song
That here is my song
That here is my song
Now it is your song
Too
